The soon-to-be Pokémon Trainers were gathering in front of Kalmia's Lab as the minutes went on, past 8 AM and towards 8:30, yet there still weren't any sign of Kalmia yet. People were moving by, either on their way to somewhere or walking their Lillipups or Growlithes or whatever they might have, perhaps smiling at the bunch of young people in front of the lab knowing that they'll be receiving their Pokémon as Kalmia had been so excited about. … A tall man came walking down the road. He was clearly distinguishable from the rest of the normal people due to the fact he was wearing a black suit with long drapes of clothe hanging down in front and a vest hanging down over his pants, as well as had nicely outfitted himself with a top-hat. Both the suit and hat were outfitted with red ribbons. The tall, silver-haired man also wore glasses and gloves, and carried himself with quite the dignified stance and... perhaps way too confident a stare, knowing exactly where he was going. [hider=And now, as the GM wants to stop showing off his horrible ability at actually describing the clothes of a person, here is an image][url=http://i.imgur.com/J00l2z8.jpg][img]http://i.imgur.com/mWbF5M3.jpg[/img][/url][/hider] If a person in the group wasn't specifically paying attention to whom was walking the streets, they might have missed him as he stopped a bit away on the other side of the street, putting one hand on his chin and steadied that hand's elbow with his other hand as he inspected the individuals in front of the lab. [color=EF284F]'Hm. Interesting. So these are the new trainers. The average age appears older than usual.'[/color] He said, rather silently, seemingly only to himself. [color=EF284F]'Fu-fu. A result of the Team Wars holding them back, or a bunch of coincidences?'[/color] He asked the nothingness, chuckling a bit for himself. He was likely too far away for any of the to-be trainers to hear him, unless they have really sharp hearing. His eyes drifted between the different individuals, especially focusing on those on their own. Dawkin. Donna. Ren. Lucian, although Abigail had started speaking to him. The man had a serious expression as he looked at them, analysing. And then... he saw young Erika greeting Ren, the young girl daring to breach through the air of uncertainty. … The man couldn't help but smirk, recalling a certain event from his own memories. Eh, back to analyzing the rest of them. He resumed staring creepily at the group of kids from a distance. For all intents and purposes, this adult man is part of the background and can be ignored. However, he looks pretty unique, and appears to be waiting for Kalmia the same as you lot.
