It was a long trip from Orre to Kanto. But considering the invitation, it was worth it. No Snag balls, not as many gangs, and more pokemon, way more wild pokemon. And the offer of his own pokemon? Who in Orre could refuse something like that? It was nice that this institution also paid for his airplane ticket, although he wondered if they'd pay for anything else.

What was pretty interesting in Kanto, besides the land being full of pokemon, was all the mass transit. No need for a motor bike when trains were these. Magnus got a bit of a nap on the train ride to Pallet town, where he was supposed to meet this 'Oak' professor. He wasn't sure if Orre had a pokemon professor. They probably did, but considering the lack of pokemon there, they probably didn't do much. But there wasn't much use in thinking of that when Magnus had a whole new region to explore.

Now this Oak fellow... That was something different entirely. The introduction letter didn't say what he studied, beyond it being pokemon, but either way it would be interesting. Now why this was a lotto, Magnus couldn't figure out, but either way he was happy to be here. He made his way to the address  The building itself looked fairly clean but wasn't that impressive on the outside. And the inside wasn't all that much either, but then there was no machinery everywhere or anything, but the open glass look was pretty decent.

After talking with the receptionist, Magnus made his way down to orientation. He was sure he wasn't the first one here considering the time, and he wasn't wrong when he saw a collection of pokeballs, some missing from professors table. He was a bit surprised that there wasn't anyone else here, but that made sense considering how fast orientation was. Getting a card, a pokedex, some pokeballs, and his new partner, then being directed to a room wasn't much of an orientation, but hey, they were expecting a lot of people.

While the orientation was fairly short and straightforward. In Orre, very few people had pokemon, and those that did had to worry about snag balls from the various gangs. Here, Magnus doubted any of that was an issue, especially considering just how much this institute was giving him and he assumed the other people. His new partner was something he had hoped for, a pokemon that basically was immune to snag balls and would eventually become a great buddy. And because of that, Magnus decided that he'd keep his new Ralts partner outside the pokeball unless absolutely necessary. AFter all, it would be nice to have a travel buddy.

Having his Ralts sit on his shoulder, Magnus took the first door on the left, the one with a #2. And apparently he was the first one here. Taking this oppertunity, Magnus sat down on the couch in front of the idle screen, and began to talk to his new partner to see if they could find some common ground and whatnot.
