Professor Rowan was their childhood idol and she got to work with him! [color=f7941d][b]"That must have been exciting getting to work with Professor Rowan. It must have been a [i]STARK[/i] contrast from digging up rocks when we were little."[/b][/color] He smirked at his lame joke. How many times had he punished her ears with ones similar to that? The number was far too high to count. His eyes widened with interest as Averi took out three poke-balls and placed them on the table. Like the scientist he was, he examined them closely. A wide smile filled his face as the pokemon left their capsule. Astounding. All of them were fantastic specimens and looked to be in fine shape, just as he would expect of Averi. He did the same as Averi and set his three pokeballs on the table upon her asking. Each one was pressed and expanded, ultimately releasing the creature within. [color=8882be][b]"Shelgon!"[/b][/color] [color=bc8dbf][b]"Beldum!"[/b][/color] [color=92278f][b]"Totodile!"[/b][/color] Shelgon emerged on Ethan's right side while Beldum hovering above his head, observing the two of them with his single eye. His totodile however had jumped right into this arms, where Ethan was forced to hold him where Ethan let out a small laugh [color=f7941d][b]"My Bagon evolved into Shelgon after I left Johto and was doing some research in the Hoenn region. Professor Elm gave me Totodile as a parting gift and he's been a huge help on my journey. Beldum I caught while out in the field in Hoenn, it startled me when I saw hovering it over my shoulder!"[/b][/color] He set Totodile on the table where the energetic water-type greeted Lavitar in raspy kind of voice. Shelgon came over to Averi and nudged her leg before looking up at her. He shifted to a more relaxed posture [color=f7941d][b]"Looks like we'll be able to finally go on a real adventure together. Now that its you I'm working with, I'm even more excited than before!"[/b][/color] His lively personality taking ahold of him. The sense of discovery enveloped him, there was no telling what they would find out in those ruins. They were once a great team and he was absolutely positive they would be again.
