Desmond, who was ready to go and eat, had started trying to find a place to sit, as well. He kept an eye out for his shorter, blonde friend; Only barely noticing her over the crowd. The only reason he did was probably due to her huge amount of energy; She hadn't planned on stopping until he actually noticed her, he figured. Thankfully it didn't take long for him to make his way over, Pokemon following or hitching a ride, and then he was able to sit, and get ready to dig into the plate like a glutton as he put it down on the table.

Yawning, Desmond's Ivysaur laid down, and closed it's eyes. Simply deciding to enjoy some time out in the sun. However, Jigglypuff jumped off his head and plopped onto the table; Grabbing Desmond's pudding cup and jamming her little hand in it, scooping out the pudding and eating it with a huge smile, shoving it into her mouth.

"Eheh..." Desmond laughed nervously, noting his Pokemon weren't as polite or formal as Lily or her Nidorina. He really wasn't, either. His napkin was just to the side, the boy not seeming to care much about a stain or two from his feast; It'd serve as a good memory of this moment. As she asked where he was from, Desmond blinked, processing the fact she asked him a question; Before responding.

"Me? I'm from Pallet." He answered, smiling. "I've lived there my entire life; But I spent a few years as an aide to Professor Oak before deciding to venture out." And by 'deciding to venture out', he pretty much meant 'get told to leave'. Realizing that mentioning such a famous Professor without evidence was futile, Desmond reached into his coat pocket and pulled out his Pokedex, showing it to Lily. "See? Here's a Pokedex the Professor gave me. It's extremely helpful for identifying Pokemon, and the data it collects teaches us more and more every day." He was obviously proud of having a Pokedex, and he held it very tightly, as to not accidentally drop it into his plate.
