Of course, he couldn't really take in any natural beauty of the town as everything was incredibly blurry. Still, his dad and Xatu taught him enough about what he needed to do in any new town before he had set off on his journey. A red roof was likely a Pokemon Center, a Blue Roof was a Pokemart, and... well, there's a Gym in Highhill he thought. At first, Skylar was unsure about tackling the Pokemon League, but the more and more he pressed on his journey, he kinda wanted to try it. At least the Minor League, if anything. He looked towards Vivia once again. [color=mediumslateblue]"So, I'm thinking I have a plan here. First, I wanna go heal my team up, since they could all use a decent round of Pokemon Centering before we press forward at all. After the Pokemon Center, I wanted to go and buy some Pokeballs to catch with. Once those two are done, I'mma go lookin' for some new buddies to carry on this journey with."[/color] Skylar explained his plan to Vivia after pulling his sunglasses off for a moment, cleaning them off slightly, and placing them back onto the top of his head. He was blind, sure, but his sunglasses didn't exactly help with things like that. Interestingly, JoJo took a little bit of interest in the sunglasses. [color=mediumslateblue]"That's my plan. You're welcome to come with me on it, but if you wanted to go and do your own thing, that's cool. We could meet up at the Gym later once all that's over with."[/color] Whether or not Vivia was going to tag along, Skylar would start his little adventure (though, if she did leave for a little, Skylar would tell her goodbye for sure.) (From here, I'mma divide everything in my post with lines so it can be more easily read. If something interesting happens at any of the locations, feel free to have that interrupt Skylar's plans before he continues on.) [center]~-~ OFF TO THE POKEMON CENTER! ~-~[/center] Skylar stepped into the Pokemon Center for the first time as a trainer, and he was just as enchanted with it as he figured. He wasn't sure, but he was fairly certain that the [url=https://youtu.be/7LvsWVE9-es]ever-so familiar tune[/url] he heard when he visited with his dad back in Freecape was even better as a trainer. (Yes, I know it's the XY one and this is based on ORAS, but the XY one is better in my eyes.) Skylar stepped up to the counter after returning each one of his team members (save JoJo, who hadn't been hurt yet) to their respective Pokeballs. In his standard cheery voice, he looked at Nurse Joy and pleasantly asked her for the first, but definitely not last, time. [color=mediumslateblue]"Hey Nurse Joy! Could I have my team healed, please?"[/color] Of course, she would oblige, unless the machine wasn't working. Afterwards, Skylar would once again release all of his team members back out into the open Pokemon Center. He hated them being cooped up in their Pokeballs. [color=skyblue]"Wingull!"[/color] Seabreeze was first, and immediately returned from the ground back onto Skylar's head. He was certainly a little annoyed, though, since he couldn't find his normal spot easily. It took him a little shuffling, but he got back into his groove quickly. [color=pink]"Jiggly."[/color] Celebrity was next. Just as she had done before, she looked up at Skylar and stared at him, most likely wanting some headpats from him. Chuckling, the boy would happily give in and ruffle the curl on her head a little bit. [color=springgreen]"Tropius?"[/color] Paradise was the last to be sent back out, and she looked at Skylar with an inquisitive expression. Carefully, the mama Tropius inspected the young trainer for any injuries before nodding and offering him some fruit from her neck. Skylar pleasantly declined, but he did scratch her chin. [color=mediumslateblue]"I'm glad to see you're doing better."[/color] This also served as the first time JoJo got to see the party in full! He waved happily to the Tropius that helped him once again, cowered a little behind Skylar at the sight of the sassy 'Puff, and bopped Seabreeze on the beak affectionately. He'd fit in comfortably with this merry band. As Skylar and Co. made their way to the door, Skylar looked back to Nurse Joy once more to ask a question. [color=mediumslateblue]"Hey Nurse Joy, are there any rare Pokemon around Highhill?"[/color] [center]~-~ NEXT UP, THE POKEMART! ~-~[/center] Skylar wasn't going to be in here long, and Celebrity and Paradise would stay outside for a small little bit while he went in and bought the convenience pack of ten Pokeballs. He grabbed the package of normal Pokeballs (after a small bit of difficulty, since he struggled to read the packaging because it was so blurry), priced at 2000P, and carried them up to the Sales Clerk before he noticed JoJo poking at his Sunglasses. With a smile, Skylar pulled them off and gave them to the Ralts, who was confused about how to wear them with hair in their eyes. Skylar eventually settled on placing the glasses on the Ralts' head, resting them on his horn, before smiling to himself. He didn't need them as much as he let on. He had Seabreeze and the gang now, so he didn't think they were as important to wear as much now. God, one could REALLY tell Skylar had horrible vision now, though. His eyes were incredibly cloudy, almost like a thunderstorm. Still, he looked at the Sales Clerk after the transaction was over, and asked the same question as he did to Nurse Joy. [color=mediumslateblue]"Do you know if there are any rare Pokemon around here in Highhill?"[/color] [center]~-~ TRAINING TIME! ~-~[/center] [color=Mediumslateblue]"Alright team, it's time to get some training done!"[/color] Skylar announced to his company as the team got to an area with a noticeable amount of wild Pokemon (though, mainly Machops). [color=mediumslateblue]"If we're gonna take on the league and continue this journey, we could stand to bolster our strength a bit more. Thankfully, we should be able to both find some new friends and decent sparring partners here at the same time!"[/color] Skylar lifted JoJo and Seabreeze off his head, placing them onto the ground beside Celebrity and Paradise so he could address the whole team. [color=mediumslateblue]"If any of you guys aren't feeling good enough to train after a little ways through this, it's okay to take a break and sit on the sidelines."[/color] Skylar smiled. [color=mediumslateblue]"After all, I'd hate to see any of you guys get burnt out."[/color] Skylar stood back up once more, a wide grin appearing on his face. [color=mediumslateblue]"You guys ready?!"[/color] [color=skyblue]"Gull!"[/color] [color=Pink]"Jigglypuff!"[/color] [color=springgreen]"Tropi."[/color] [color=darkseagreen]"Rall!"[/color] ... and with the team in agreement, Skylar began to train. He'd also start searching for any of the rare or uncommon Pokemon Nurse Joy and the Clerk told him about, as well as any that he might not've heard about from them.
