[b][u]Route 2[/u][/b]

It was a beautiful day on Route 2, the sun was shining, the sky was cloudless, and the tall grass was absolutely rustling with wild pokemon ready to be fought and maybe even caught! But that didn't deter the stall owners, who were eager to make a pretty penny off all the fresh new faces who were surely looking for just a few more pokeballs, or maybe just one glass of Lemonade for the road! Yet the hustle and bustle so close to the city didn't deter the pokemon who watched from the edges of the path, curious Caterpie eyes peering from the forest paths and a Bunnelby or two wandering over from the plains to see what all the commotion was about.

Alaric and Lachlan would find more than a few Pokemon around as they explored the route, eventually deciding to split up so they could catch some fresh new Pokemon so they could get the edge the next time they battled. Alaric would find himself in the side paths leading to the forests of Route 2, a small conglomeration of trees and bushes that housed many Bug types, Grass types, and even a few Flying types nested in the trees that curiously watched him as he explored their home. Lachlan meanwhile would find himself in the rolling plains where patches of tall grass and puddles of mud lay scattered about, Ground types and Normal types making their home here along with a few Flying types overhead.

As Lachlan pushed past the branches and shrubbery, he would soon find himself the center of attention for many Pokemon all around. It seemed most new trainers had gone for the plains rather than the forest for some unknown reason, but that just meant more eyes on Alaric as the Pokemon around investigated the newcomer. Seedots and Bounsweet hung from the trees with bleary eyes as they woke up and got ready for the day, a group of Sunkern feeding on the morning dew and watching him apprehensively. Many Bug types also watched the boy with curiosity, a group of Weedle eating a pile of fallen leaves under the shade of a tree nearby, Scatterbugs and Wurmples cautiously crawling around as they watched the newcomer to the forest.

Alaric meanwhile found himself walking into the plains of Route 2, where the Ground types and Normal types made their nests amongst the tall grass and mud. There were a few more trainers wandering around the plains, but it was also a lot more open then the forests, so people would have to make a concerted effort to get in each other's way while catching wild Pokemon. The Pokemon here definitely seemed much more nonchalant about the trainers around, not nearly as apprehensive or anxious as the myriad Bug types that made their home in the nearby forest. A flock of Doduo casually waltz around looking for vulnerable bugs to pluck and eat, only to get into a fight with their other head as they go for the same food at the same time. Patrat watch the trainers all around like sentries, guarding their homes from would be intruders while a group of Rhyhorn stand around in a daze, having forgotten what they were doing or where they were going.
