[b]"This [i]is[/i] the Pokemon lab...right? You here for the region challenge?"[/b]

Another newcomer - thankfully a much less hyperactive one - had approached Adrian. The newcomer was slightly taller than him, carrying a Pokémon of his own in his arms. It seemed to uncurl as the guy spoke, revealing a long snout and closed eyes. Adrian recognised the colouring as that of a Cyndaquil, and smiled at the cute ball of fur.

"Yep, that's us. Adrian Manuka, of Celadon City: this here's Magnus." The Magnemite in question gave a [i]beep[/i] at the mention of its name, rising from Adrian's shoulder to settle an inch or so above the Trainer's head. "Seems there's more than just a couple of people here on the last day of registration... whereabouts are you from? Not many places to find a Cyndaquil in the wild..." As he introduced himself and asked his own questions, Adrian got the distinct impression that everyone who showed up would be introducing themselves to each other a fair few times over the course of the next hour or so.
