Their destination, Pureplain City, was just barely in view, though the two were approaching it rather quickly, to the onlooker. Skylar's hand was placed on his sunglasses, keeping the pair from flying off his face and towards the ground below. They were his only pair, and he couldn't afford to lose them! It was a good amount of money that he didn't have to replace them! [color=yellowgreen]"Xatu."[/color] The psychic bird chirped in monotonous excitement. They were close, he could see it with his mighty bird eyes. [color=mediumslateblue]"We're almost there? Well, bring us down then, buddy!"[/color] Skylar held on to his feathered friend as the two started to fly down towards the world once more, flying straight towards the street in front of the lab, and the wind resistance was enough to cause Skylar to shake with fear. They were just moving at such an incredible speed going down that it gave the kid anxiety. Of course, the excitement of a new adventure was also causing the kid to shake. Either way, he had a grin from ear to ear as the duo landed on the ground. [color=mediumslateblue]"Ahhh, I never get tired of the feel of wind on my face!"[/color] Skylar fist pumped as he swung his backpack around to his front, digging inside it to find his cane. When you're legally blind, carrying one around is a necessity, even if you have someone like Xatu watching out for you. [color=mediumslateblue]"This is Pureplain City's Pokemon Laboratory, eh? Seems like a giant grey wall."[/color] Xatu simply grabbed Skylar's head with his wing and spun him around to the other wall. [color=mediumslateblue]"... oh."[/color] Skylar looked up at his buddy before laughing. [color=mediumslateblue]"20/320 strikes again! Thanks Xatu!"[/color] [color=yellowgreen]"Tu,"[/color] the bird pokemon called as it gave a reassuring nod. It then turned to face the lab with Skylar, who was still excited about it. With a breath of hesitation, he stepped forward, tapping the area in front of him with his cane until he arrived at the door. He knocked twice on the front door before he stood there, eagerly bouncing up and down. He looked at Xatu again. [color=mediumslateblue]"Whaddya think Xatu? Think my first Pokemon will be cool? Dad said it was a surprise. Do you have any ideas?"[/color] [color=yellowgreen]"Xatu."[/color] [color=mediumslateblue]"Whaaa? No way! My own Xatu? Why do I need another Xatu when I have [i]you[/i] watching over me?!"[/color]
