[color=aqua]"How silly."[/color] Tora chuckled, wondering why anyone would call a riceball a donut. Taking a riceball and nibbling it slow and steady as she watched the Pokemon. Chuckling a little as Corphish scarfed down its food. [color=aqua]"I'll keep that in mind. Archie also likes spicy food."[/color] she mused, taking another bite out of the riceball, enjoying the soothing taste of oran berry.

At the question of paint, Tora smiled a bit thoughtfully. [color=aqua]"Well, sometimes it's just simple water colors, though quite a bit of times I use Smeagle paint. Their colorful ooze makes pretty great paint."[/color] she answered before watching the cute interaction between Juana and her Pokemon, acquiring a new friend.

[color=aqua]"Awe, do not concern yourself, I am just glad I could be of assistance."[/color] Tora said happily in response to the younger girl mentioning in 'oweing' the tall woman.

Seeing the Dewspider released and taking well care of, Tora smiled in approval. [color=aqua]"You're really a kind person Juana."[/color] she noted as she reached in her bag and got another bowl, filling it with bitter Pokemon food that was more suited for water types. A little more soft for easier digestion. Then set it down in front of the little water bug. [color=aqua]"Here you go Dewspider."[/color] Tora smiled warmly.

Archie soon finished inhaling her own spicy food, raising her head and licking her canine teeth and lips. Ears perking a little at the Dewspider, nose twitching a little as she leaned in a little to curiously sniff the water bug Pokemon.

Tora slowly stood as she picked up her own water bottle and headed to the river. Kneeling down to scoop up some water and fill the bottle. Pausing as there was a splash, the black haired woman looked up to see something peeking around behind a rock in the river. Looking closer, she could see a golden brown coloring with a shining red gem. 

[color=aqua]"Oh. A Staryu."[/color] Tora said, watching the star shaped Pokemon lean out a little more before quickly hiding behind the rock when it noticed Tora looking.

[color=aqua]"Hey it's alright! Apologies I didn't mean to scare you! Are you hungry?"[/color] Tora spoke softly as she reached and took out some Pokemon food, holding it out to the timid starfish. It was a little odd seeing a Staryu in a river rather than the ocean, but not unheard of as they sometimes use rivers to travel back to the ocean.

The timid Staryu slowly peeked out again, before making a sound of surprise as a red stripe Basculin suddenly launched out of the water toward the starfish. Sharp teeth chomping onto one of the jewel Pokemon's limps and gnawing it off.

Staryu squealed before quickly spun trying to Rapid Spin away from the red striped fish, though it was lopsided due to missing one of its limbs. The Basculin chomped just missing a limb before quickly following after the starfish. Tora quickly stood up as she saw the Staryu in trouble and she didn't particularly think too clearly in her next move. Only that she needed to help. So she took out her empty pokeball, quickly throwing it when the Staryu drew near to smack the ball against it. The starfish disappeared in a flash of light just as the Basculin was about to make a good chomp on the gem.

Tora had to take a few steps into the water as she reached out to catch the Pokeball. The Basculin quickly lept out of the water again, sharp teeth poised to take a bite out of the human woman's arm. Archie however was watching intently before the puppy Pokemon quickly stood and charged. Fur fluffed up and bristling with loud snarls, growls, and barks emitting from the Growlithe. Archie jumped just before touching the water, slamming her head against the violent fish, knocking it clean back into the water. Archie gave a minor whimper as she realized she was falling toward the water but Tora quickly managed to grab the scruff of the Growlithe, quickly retreating back onto land with a sigh of relief.

[color=aqua]"Whew... Thank you Archie."[/color] Tora said as she set Archie on the ground, who gave a happy yip. Looking at the Pokeball in her hand, it rocked a few times, before clicking closed. With a smile, she let the Staryu out of the ball. The starfish gave a 'HYAH' sound, glancing around as it stood on two out of its four limbs. The one that should be on top being the one torn off.

Taking out her Pokedex as it dinged at another capture. [color=skyblue]"Staryu the Star Shaped Pokemon. Staryu apparently communicates with the stars in the night sky by flashing the red core at the center of its body. If parts of its body are torn, this Pokémon simply regenerates the missing pieces and limbs. Unless the its gem is destroyed, its body will continue to regenerate even if torn into a thousand pieces. Ability: Natural Cure. Nature: Timid."[/color] the electronic device spoke.

Tora knelt and patted the Staryu's gem gently. [color=aqua]"That must have been quite a scare. Sorry about that surprise, thought at the time you'd be safer in a Pokeball. My name is Tora it's nice to meet you... Mhmm I think I will call you... Sirius. How's that sound?"[/color] Tora asked, earning another 'HYAH' before the Staryu waddled over and lightly leaned against Tora's leg. With a smile, Tora scooped Sirius  up into her arms and returned to Juana, settling back down under the shady spot. 

Producing another Pokemon bowl and Pokemon food and set it down for the Staryu. Archie followed, sniffing at the star like Pokemon curiously, though the Staryu shyly shifted away.
