Kanto was proving to be something of a disappointment so far. Between the supposedly most learned man in the land proving that things as complex as his family member's names and basic etiquette were elusive in his advanced age, and the toughest gym leader proving to be as insecure as a 16-year-old birthday girl with a zit on her face, it was frankly comical. Still, Lilith got what she came for. She got a Pokedex, she got an official start on the Indigo League journey and she got proof that Unova is much better than this Arceus-forsaken land. There was still a master thesis to be completed, but still, the ego boost from the events so far outweighed a potential reveal of her dreaded birth name.

While the other trainers who had assembled were chatting, Lilith turned to her partner. The little candle Pokemon was still calm as ever, smiling on her shoulder as if it didn't witness that utter shitshow inside the laboratory. [color=cc5500]"Hold still for a sec, Sia."[/color]

At first glance, Litwick appears to be a helpful Pokemon illuminating pathways through the darkness. However, it is only leading travellers astray to be able to leech off their life force to fuel its flame.

[color=cc5500]"Huh...[/color] Lilith looked back up at Sia. [color=cc5500]"Is that what you've been doing all this time? Just tricking me so you can suck the life force out?[/color]

[color=a187be]"Lit! Lit! Litwicklitlit..." [i]No! No! I mean, it's a nice perk, but...[/i][/color]

[color=cc5500]"Look, I'm happy to keep you fed with all the life force I got. Just don't lie to me, OK?[/color]

[color=a187be]"Litwicklit!" [i]I never would![/i][/color]

[color=cc5500]"OK then..."[/color]

[color=00aeef][b]"That certainly just happened to all of us. I suppose our next move is to travel north, then? Perhaps as a group?"[/b][/color]

Hana wanted to get out of town, and that sounded like a great idea to Lilith's ears. [color=cc5500]"The spirits seemed to have aligned us that way. We might as well."[/color] The Unovan looked around. There wasn't much to look around at, and it was pretty easy to spot a path that would lead out of this quaint little town. Lilith couldn't wait to leave it behind. [color=cc5500]"This way. You lot can keep yapping as we move.[/color]

With a place as small as Pallet Town, it wasn't long before the path opened up to an grassy plain. There were sure to be Pokemon in the area.
