[@Project] Erza went into the room, which he could quickly tell was a faculty office, where he ended up on the other side of a slightly confused woman, who looked up from her paperwork to look at him. An adult woman in a white shirt and tie, a black day-wear underneath and her long orange hair tied back into a somewhat wild pony-tail. On top of her head she appeared to be wearing goggles, for whatever reason. [hider=her][url=https://i.imgur.com/UwAanP6.jpg][img]https://i.imgur.com/JH14I4I.jpg[/img][/url][/hider] [color=de8d6d]‘Hm?’[/color] She made a surprised noise when Erza first came in, and then listened to his description. The surprise quickly waned and she got a slight smile as she put together what had happened. [color=de8d6d]‘Oh, right…’[/color] She stood up with the smile in place, and made her way around the desk up to Erza, examining the items. [color=de8d6d]‘Suppose I can take these off your hands.’[/color] She took the Pretty Flowers. She smiled a bit at them as she did. [color=de8d6d]‘Guess this one’s actually kinda cute…’[/color] She took the Poké Doll. [color=de8d6d]‘I don’t think either of us have use of this one, but at the very least you don’t need to carry it around…’[/color] She’d take the Strange Souvenir unless Erza made an objection. [color=de8d6d]‘And suppose I could use one of these right now.’[/color] She took the Lumiose Galette. That particular one for greedy reasons. Her eyes scanned the other items, and her eyes stopped on the shiny little feather. She absent-mindedly reached and picked up the Lunar Wing, inspecting it on a closer range for several seconds, a little absorbed by it… before placing it back among the items. [color=de8d6d]‘Yeah, you can have the rest.’[/color] She nodded to him. Then he could check the contents of that Pokéball. He opened it, and with a flash a Pokémon emerged, grey in color and floating in the air, looking at him.

Duskull has the ability to pass through walls and make itself invisible. It loves the sound of crying children, and will startle them to make them cry. It typically haunts a victim until daylight comes, as it is nocturnal. It’s single eye can cause unnatural fear in whom it's looking at.[/i][/color][/center][/hider] Aaaaaaaaaaand guess he’s keeping it.

She has been raised (for the short time she's been alive (or alive as a ghost, anyway, however you prefer)) in very sheltered conditions basically only to be a battler. Keep that in mind when controlling her, but otherwise, feel free to go crazy personality wise.[/i][/hider] [color=de8d6d]‘Sorry if Johannes startled you. He’s been a bit… down there ever since he came back from the Team Wars.’[/color] The woman said with a little smile. [color=de8d6d]‘He’s an amazing trainer, a brilliant teacher as well as breeder and he was a terror to all of Amethyst back when he was a Team Virtue Admin, but… I really hope he overcomes whatever’s on his mind.’[/color] She nodded and then went back and got seated again. [color=de8d6d]‘… But with these disappearances of his, he’s not still dealing with them, is he? He said he was done with them. Ooough…’[/color] She sighed and muttered for herself. Then she blinked a little in realization, before looking up at Erza again. [color=de8d6d]‘Ah, nothing you need to worry about. You’re a trainer on your Pokémon journey, right? Continued good luck on your adventure! Say if there’s anything you need help with!’[/color] She then went back to paperwork. By the looks of things, she was part of the faculty here at the school, so if he had questions she probably could answer them. Otherwise, he could move on. [hider=Suggestions to actions]1.

Both the guy and the Vanillite looked considerably confused. Then, Amelia went immediately on the counter-attack, with Litwick coming out and unleashing a fiery ember at Vanillite, who was too stunned to dodge. [color=bce2f5]‘VanIII…!’[/color] The ice-cone flinched back from the hot impact, rolling a bit on the ground and looked part-melted, and the trainer was blinking in surprise. It should be noted the ember was weakened by the rain, but it seemed to do considerable damage anyway. It’s super effective! [color=98bd7b]‘Whatthe- I’m trying to save you! That Drifloon… they take away little kids! You’re a kid! Haven’t your parents ever threatened that a Drifloon would come and-’[/color] He looked utterly disbelieving as he returned the damaged Vanillite to its Pokéball. [color=98bd7b]‘No matter, I’m ready to defeat you to save you, if that’s what it takes!’[/color] He took out another Pokéball. [color=98bd7b]‘Bonsly, go!’[/color] He threw down another Pokéball, and after a flash…! [color=a8895e]‘Bonsly!’[/color] A small tree-seed-like Pokémon with two legs and no arms looked up. [center][url=https://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/e/e2/438Bonsly.png][img]https://i.imgur.com/K8eZY2h.png[/img][/url][/center] [center][color=6ecff6][i]Pokédex Entry #438 – Bonsly, the Bonsai Pokémon. It prefers arid environments. If it gets excess water, it leaks out the water through its eyes, making it look like it’s constantly crying, which also serves to make enemies less willing to attack it. It is a fairly good mimic and are often mistaken for real bonsai trees. Somehow.[/i][/color][/center] … And with that in mind, in this rain, Bonsly basically immediately used Fake Tears no matter if it wanted to or not, the water from above just pouring through its system and then out from under its eyes while it stared forward at Amelia, Litwick and the Drifloon. [color=98bd7b]‘Bonsly! Use Rock Throw on the Litwick!’[/color] … Is what the trainer is going to command if he isn’t interrupted. However, if Amelia wishes to, she may have acted before him in some manner which would make him have to reconsider. Maybe. Up to her.
