[color=deepskyblue] "You can call me Edward," the pokemon trainer nodded. He shook his head in the direction of the laboratory. "We best head over there now; the lectures might take forever so it is best to get it over with now." Ed began walking calmly down the paved path. He stopped for a moment and admired the labor that had been done to create the proud statue. The pokemon was none he has ever seen before, but it appeared to be tall with giant hooves. The pokemon was probably not from Johto and must be a legendary. Ed shrugged his continues and walked around the statue and progressed over to the laboratory.[/color] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [color=limegreen]"Whoo, it's becoming a real tiring day. I wonder why this day is offering so many new trainers? It's been days since I've seen this increase of trainers!" Professor Pine sighed in exhaustion; leaning against the wall to support himself. He massaged his throat, "Wow, after repeating the same thing over and over again; my voice might eventually give out." "Professor, could you please move your pokemon? I'm in the middle of something important and I have no intentions of starting over. I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to have him out around electronics anyway." There was a young woman leaning forward on her officer chair hugging her computer. Her attire was sharp; flashing a buttoned shirt and kakis. The assistant's hair was blonde and tied in a pony tail to ensure it doesn't get in the way of anything. "Magneton! Magneton!" The creature cried out. It hovered over the assistant; it was basically asking for her attention. Pine wasn't enforcing his pokemon back into his chamber, but laughing at the scene. The assistant tried repeatedly to swat the Magneton, but to no avail. "Oh, come now, Sylvia! He's just in a playful mood. He doesn't mean to. Also, why are you being so official? You could just call me Uncle Pine." The professor stroked his beard and observed his pokemon annoy his niece. "Uncle! If he causes my computer to freeze up, it'll be the third time today!" Sylvia whined, swatting the magnetic pokemon away. "Hold on, Sylvia. It seems more trainers are about." The professor ignored the cries of his niece and looked out the glass wall in the front of the building. The view showed a trail leading off to the dock, it was fortunate as to he could always see the amount of trainers heading his way. Even if there wasn't any signs of newcomers, it was a delight watching the ocean. Professor Pine coughed a few times. "Time to welcome more youngsters to the Toppe Region."[/color]
