[Center][color=7ea7d8]-Yuu Nozomu : New Bark Town-[/color]

As Yuu questioned the reasoning due to his innate curiosity, another voice spoke up behind Yuu. The teen rotated his head to see the familiar towel boy supporting Yuus claim while stating that he heard about the trainers here receiving pokedexes. The boys right eyebrow shot up quickly at his statement. Yuu pondered on who he heard this from and groused over it. [color=7ea7d8][i]"Er, it has been common knowledge for a while that trainers were not procuring pokedexes.. Wonder who peddled that information to him... probably some jerk looking for a good trick to tell their friends, or possibly a misinformed person."

"Either way, I just wanted to inquire why on the matter due to the circumstances..."[/i][/color]

As quickly as the duo responded, Elm countered the other kid and Yuu, all while apologizing about the information transmitted. Yuu nodded to the Professor and smiled to him, letting him know there was nothing to apologize for. His grin toned down to a regular, semi-relaxed tone. Elm did agree with Yuus statements, however provided essential evidence to why they couldn't hand them out. Yuus ears perked up as he spoke, and nodded in agreement.

[color=7ea7d8]"Yeah, I understand what you mean Professor, apologies for pestering you with that question... however, that isn't going to stop me from assisting you guys in whatever way I can. I'm just as interested to why they've become feral as it is slightly abnormal that they became like that due to their behavioral patterns."[/color] Yuu replied in a friendly tone of voice that was more of consideration rather than of disappointment or irritation. There was another idea that was lingering on his mind, and the boy almost looked ready to go into a convoluted explanation of what it was...

... but he refused since he did not want to waste Elms time much longer.

[color=7ea7d8]"Say, Professor, Alfred,"[/color] Yuus voice perked up in a much more serious and reflective manner in contrast to his voice earlier.[color=7ea7d8]"Have you guys read up on the history of Almia? Did some research on it and it has some hidden insight to this chaos, such as humans causing pokemon to attack anything in sight due to strange machines... either way, I think you can get an idea of my hypothesis."[/color]

With that statement in place, Yuu reverted back to his previous, lax composure. Yuu stared at where he previously took note of the pokemon egg, noticing Sylvia was still bemused about the technology. The eevee quietly patrolled around it, studying it as it got closer to the glass. Sylvias eyes furrowed a bit before pushing her paws down on the desk. The boy was a bit worried that she might not like the machine, and frown in an concerned manner.

[color=7ea7d8]"Er, pardon me,"[/color] you spoke in a rushed manner as he hurried behind Elm and Alfred towards the machine. Mere seconds later, one could hear a cute "vee!" emanating from behind the duo with a flying Eevee... that was stopped mid-flight. Yuu got a grip on Sylvia as she bounced into the air, and managed to stop her from seizing the opportunity to... do whatever she was going to do with the scanner.

[color=7ea7d8]"Apologies Sylvia, but that isn't a toy to be played with,"[/color] Yuu spoke with the struggling Eevee wrapped tightly by his hands. The furry brown creature kept squirming around in an attempt to reach it. [color=f49ac2]"Vee, vee,"[/color] it cried as it attempted to continue in its endeavor to reach the shiny object. Eventually she realized it was futile and stopped struggling to escape his grip. The small pokemon pouted, annoyed that her playful antics had come to an end. Sylvia relocated her head to face Yuu, showing her dissatisfaction. The boy awkwardly chuckled as he put the small pokemon down on the ground. The Eevee sat, and turned her head away, her little eyes squeezed shut in a cliche manner which reminded him of a stereotypical kid who didn't get what they wanted.

For a moment, how thought he saw the Eevee snickering a bit, but he shrugged as he let his guard down for two seconds. Next thing he knew was that he launched himself forward a few steps due to the imbalance of a furry brown hat latching onto his head. [color=7ea7d8]"Eh,"[/color] Yuu expressed in a surprised manner as he tumbled on forwards, his one eye expressing surprise at the circumstance through widening. The boy barely managed to keep his balance as he flew forward, Sylvia expressing her joy as the events transpired with a few growls and smile.

As Yuu regained his balance, he was jolted back to the reality before him, Sylvia expressing the same distraught, confused expression as one of the trainers brandished their disatisfaction. The boy rotated his head to the ongoing situation, curious to what was going on. Sylvia tilted her head as she watched the ongoing chaos between Cerise and her Natu. The girls true colors were slightly flowing as she had a disgusted look on her face. It was blantly obvious she did not understand how to handle a pokemon, which invoked even more suspicion into Yuu.

The boy crossed his arms as he peered at the girl, his mouth centered like a straight line across his face. Her facade was temporarily down for the most part and she attempted to remask herself before it was too late. The response was clumsy for the most part and the Natu didn't appear to care for her appeals as it pecked her cheek. Sylvia had a different idea of what it wanted to do, and poised herself to try and prepare for a launch off yet again... although she did find it difficult to gain her balance... along with Yuu too since he was top heavy.

[color=f49ac2]"Vee!"[/color] Sylvia exclaimed as she struggled to maintain balance. Yuu wrapped his hands around her body, to which she attempted to rebel against his grip, before giving up yet again. The boy immediately set the Eevee onto the tiled floor, to which she let out a small cry before stretching and trotting over to Abigail and Cerise.

...

What's the worse that could happen?

The small ball of brown fur cried out towards the two pokemon resting on their trainers, almost like a friendly introduction of herself to the other pokemon... except it was pretty energetic as she bounced up and down, keeping her attention on the purple ball of spikes and the green ball thing with legs and a beak. Eventually she returned to her trainer who was keeping a watch over the situation. Whatever glances they would shoot at him... he could care less at the moment as she rushed over to the other trainers who looked delighted to have their pokemon... namely the three around the table who had delightful looking pokemon.

The duo looked at them, filled with satisfaction that some trainers were getting along with their pokemon. The two strolled up to them, Sylvia taking the lead as she rushed forward to greet the new pokemon. As the Eevee went off excited exchanging [color=f49ac2]"Vees,"[/color] between each pokemon, Yuu began to say his piece as he began talking to each trainer.

[color=7ea7d8]"Looks like your newfound friends are enjoying your presence,"[/color] Yuu calmly spoke to the trainers enveloping the area as he eyed the Misdreavus as it floated in mid-air. He moved his gaze between each pokemon, going from the red-headed boys Chikorita, to the blonde girls Cyndaquil. Yuu relocated his arm for a bit as he tapped his finger on his chin. It was peculiar that the girl in a beautiful shade of green didn't take the Chikorita while the boy in blazing red didn't procure a Cyndaquil. While they did fit, it piqued Yuus mind to why, before shrugging and letting his arm fall back into place.

[color=7ea7d8]"Anyways,"[/color] Yuu spoke as he brushed his purple hair aside, revealing his other eye. [color=7ea7d8]"I don't think we all have been acquainted with each other yet... it would be nice to know each others names since we might be traversing Johto together."[/color] Yuu smiled in a lax manner at the three. Before he could go on any further, Elm gave an announcement. Yuus ears perked up and returned gaze to the Professor. The Eevee stopped bouncing to a moment upon hearing this revelation and curiously turned her head to see what the man was talking about. Once finished, Yuu let out a slightly disgruntled sigh before readdressing the three he was speaking with.

[color=7ea7d8]"Well... guess we can finish up introductions later when we are out of town,"[/color] Yuu responding in a slightly lower tone. The boy slightly rubbed his neck before eyeing the tall boy. From what he could discern at this point, Avery definitely did not receive a trainer card. Furrowing his brows in a way to remedy his mood while appearing unbiased. Suddenly it came to him, and a smile was born on his face.

[color=7ea7d8]"Hey Elm,"[/color] Yuu spoke as he gave the Professor his attention. [color=7ea7d8]"Maybe you could let your assistant take care of the pokemon with you maintaining custody over the pokemon due to laws. Everyone should experience the joys of pokemon, regardless of age. I know I did with my moms Gardevoir at times."[/color] Speaking his piece, he returned his eyes back to the three, his lavender hair obscuring one of his eyes he again as he smiled. [color=7ea7d8]Well, guess I'll see you guys outside then... Sylvia, shall we depart?"[/color]

As the boy walked toward the exit, he beckoned Sylvia to follow, to which she responded with a cheerful dash. Yuu did not rush past the boy who was already leaving as he found that to be rather uncustomary... a.k.a just plain rude. Once he got out, he noticed that the older boy did not have his pokemon out with him. [color=7ea7d8]"Hey, maybe you should let your pokemon out as it will probably enjoy the scenery... Oh, also, I don't think we've introduced ourselves, have we?"[/color]

As Yuu began talking to Nate Sylvia trotted forward, looking confused at why the Nidoran was waving. As she walked, she focused on the purple spikes that the nice purple lady was holding. The young Eevee associated it with her trainer, and almost ready to rest on her head before recalling what happened last time. Sylvia, feeling a tinge discouraged about the probability of the girl removing her from her head returned to Yuus side as they continued onwards to route 29.[/center]
