[h1]Welcome to Chromis[/h1]

[i]"Welcome to the world of Pokemon, I am Professor Grevillia, though most know me here in Chromis as the Pokemon Professor. Pokemon are wonderful companions and friends who help us in everyday life, as well as fight alongside us as friends. However like humans they are much more complex creatures, and each one is different to the other, like how no two people are the same. As such my studies into Pokemon have always been interesting, as I learn that Pokemon grow differently depending on who raises them, and how they are raised by that person.

"Every week in the Beryllium Pokemon Lab, I will be there to greet all new trainers as they register to take on the Chromis League and it's 8 gyms, or should they feel it more suitable for them, sign up for the Chromis Pokemon Contests. If you are one of the trainers seeking to begin their new adventure, I hope to see you there!"[/i]

[center][h3]Pokemon Laboratory - Beryllium City
Morning[/h3][/center]

The Pokemon Laboratory of Beryllium City was always filled with people, both staff and public, it was a public domain after all. People would visit to learn more about Pokemon, observe some of the facilities such as the various testing areas and observation areas, but it was most visited for it's PokePark, a place where trainers can rest while playing with their Pokemon. Many even used this place as a social meeting place. Besides it's state of the art facilities, some people visited to see if they could meet Professor Grevillia, who was rather famous throughout Chromis. She was often the first to be consulted about anything regarding Pokemon and often took off to pursue anything that may be new. Most importantly she was known most for her research on Pokemon Ecology, and how Chromis is able to accommodate for a much larger array of Pokemon than any other region thus far. That technology is what makes the Chromis League's now arena in the Ice Palace such a spectacle.

However, today was different, the crowd was made up of more younger trainers than older ones on a social visit. They had fresh-faced Pokemon with them, and a certain glint in their eyes. Once a week Professor Grevillia addresses the new trainers setting out on their journey that day. You can set out on your journey any day you please, so long as you register in an official facility, however the Pokemon Lab is one of very few facilities. At this time the other facilities are going under an upgrade so only the Pokemon Lab is able to register trainers, it's especially more convenient anyways as it has the facilities for registering for both the League challenge, and the Pokemon Contests.

The PokePark was to be used as the venue as Professor Grevillia greeted the new trainers alongside a few Pokemon, among them were Pikachu, Azumarill, Cyndaquill, and a Pidgey.

[color=yellow]"You all must be the new trainers embarking on their journey as of today. Well it's good to see all the new trainers embark on their own journey, some may have goals in mind, others may find new goals along the way, in the end it's the beginning of your path in life, where it takes you, you may never know. For instance I never figured I'd become a Professor. Going on your own adventure is like a rite of passage to maturity as you see the world. There are some who also abandon their path and take to terrible acts, but remember, to never give up, despite how hard things may become"[/color], she began. 

[color=yellow]"In any case, I'm sure you'll all do just fine. Just don't forget to register for the Chromis League or the Pokemon Contests if that's your interest. You'll find the desk just outside the PokePark, and to the right. As for the trainers here who have not brought a Pokemon of their own, I'd like you all to see me and we'll pick one out for you. As for everyone else, if you'd like to help me in my research, I will hand you a Pokedex to use on your journey, and if you have any questions I'll be here all day"[/color], and with that she ended the address. Among the crowd there were some new trainers walking up to Grevillia. She worked with Pokemon very often and as a result populated the PokePark with many, so they had no problems choosing from there.

Everyone who already had their own, need only register and get going on their journey.
