The others had all taken their pokemon and all that remained was for Sully to take his. He started to move his thumb from finger to finger on his right hand, the nervous reaction he had spent a long time trying to leave behind. It wasn't so much that he was worried about the pokemon he was going to receive, but about what it represented. He was starting a new chapter in his life, a life that was within his control and away from everything he had suffered through growing up. He took several steps forward while the others attention was focussed firmly on their own pokemon. He stopped at the table and looked at the polished pokeball resting in front of him.

[color=8855aa][i]I guess this is it...[/i][/color] He thought to himself. He nervously reached for the pokeball in front of him, picked it up tentatively not wanting to break it. He knew they were tough devices, the whole point of them was to throw them so there was no need to be so soft touched with it. The button that faced him needed to be pressed, it would symbolise the end of his old life and the start of his new one. He closed his eyes and firmly pressed it.

There was brief flash of light as the pokeball opened, followed by a darting beam of light that moved to the floor. From it emerged his new pokemon. Sully knelt down and looked it in the eye upclose, the tusked pokemon tilting it's head to match Sully's. It let out a soft [url=https://veekun.com/dex/media/pokemon/cries/610.ogg]cry[/url] before leaping at Sully, wrapping it's arms around his neck. He could feel it's tusk pressing against his neck but it did not matter, in that brief moment Sully knew what unconditional love was. His family had shown him barely any growing up but this pokemon had shown infinitely more in mere seconds. Sully wiped away a stray tear on his cheek, sniffing deeply before gently pushing the pokemon off. 

It stared up at him smiling, tugging on the leg of his trousers. [color=8855aa]"Hey there...my names Sully."[/color] He could hide his own smile from stretching from across his face as the pokemon spoke back. He had never thought about naming his pokemon up to this point and even though he had heard Wye name his Torchic, he didn't think naming his pokemon was right for him. [color=8855aa]So Axew are you ready to go on an adventure?"[/color] The pokemon started to leap up and down with excitement before posing in what Sully could only assume was it's fighting stances. It began to throw several punches as Sully looked on laughing.

[color=fff79a]"Right then it seems that my work is done here gentleman."[/color] Professor Oak spoke in her soft voice but it was still enough to make Sully turn sharply. [color=fff79a]"From what I can see you four do not know each other but from my understanding these journeys are no fun alone. Maybe you should all consider setting out together."[/color] Sully looked back at his Axew as a wave of nerves washed over him. He had intended on building friendships with his pokemon before looking to any humans, but he knew the professor was right. He stood up and turned to face the group putting his hand out in front of him. [color=8855aa]"I came here intending on leaving alone with my pokemon, the thought of other people just didn't cross my mind."[/color] Sully stuttered slightly as he spoke with the nerves getting the best of him, that was until Axew grabbed hold of his leg. Sully looked down at the wide eyed pokemon and smiled. [color=8855aa]"The professor is right though. Adventures should be shared and i'd be honoured to go on one with all of you."[/color] From his leg Axew let go and stepped forward, copying Sully's pose, reaching it's little hand out towards the other pokemon. [color=8855aa]"So what do you say?"[/color]
