[center]---- Part 1 - Route 5 ----
Emolga and Scatterbug[/center]

As Skylar and Vivia stepped onto Route 5, Skylar poked his Pokedex to figure out what had actually been already discovered on that Route before. Since the Pokedex had a map and all, it should display where some Pokemon were in the grand scheme... only to then realize that there wasn't just potential for an Emolga here, but there was also Scatterbug! Not only that, but the route up ahead seemed to have even more Flying types for Skylar to catch! He was beaming with excitement.

[color=mediumslateblue]"Aaaalright, uh, small stop. There's some flying types here that I wanna try to catch."[/color] Skylar awkwardly paused and looked out into the small, peaceful route to try and see if he could catch a glimpse of the Emolga and Scatterbug that he was after. It wouldn't be easy to find them, but maybe he'd get lucky? Worst case, he could always come back here on the way to Raremine and see if he had any better luck.

Who knows? Since this route bordered Route 6, maybe he could snag a Starly that happened to wander a little farther from the flock than anticipated? It'd certainly help keep Skylar and Vivia from getting into trouble on Route 6, that's for sure.

[color=mediumslateblue]"Alright, time to go on a small adventure!"[/color] 

[hider=The Game Plan]

Alright, so, Skylar wants three Pokemon from these routes, though maybe he'd also grab a Fletchling and Doduo on his way through Route 6 if he got the chance, but there are 3 primary Pokemon that he's looking for now. So... we'll start with the easiest one by far, Scatterbug.

Scatterbug is a common bug on Route 5, and being a baby Bug type you get early on in most adventures, I imagine it's not going to be the toughest thing to catch and find here. Skylar'll look around for any rare Scatters amongst a group, pick one of those Scatters, use Celebrity to put it to sleep with Sing, then chucks a Pokeball at it. With any luck, it stays in the ball, and bada bing bada boom we catch a Scatterbug. I'm not banking on it being so high level that the strat won't work, so we're just gonna try that out and hope. If not, we'll try another ball and see if we can maybe catch it in the second.

Emolga is the next up, since Starly is kind of the "Maybe there will be one". Now, none of Skylar's Pokemon are actually effective against Emolga's typing, plus Skylar has to actually [i]find[/i] the Emolga first. That being said, if Skylar does find one, we're going to stick to the Celebrity strategy of catching it. Disarming Voice until around half HP, put it to sleep with Sing, then we throw a Pokeball. Provided everything goes well, that should catch the Emolga and add it to Skylar's roster. If Celebrity somehow gets K.O'd before the Emolga gets put to sleep, we'll resort to just trying to weaken it down with Paradise using Stomp before we throw the some Pokeballs at it.

If Skylar uses more than 4 balls on Emolga he'll probably just move on from it and try to catch it later.

Lastly, Starly. Since it's on a neighboring route, maybe one grazed onto Route 5 accidentally. On the way to Route 6 proper, Skylar'll keep an eye out for any lone Starly, and an ear since they're apparently noisy birds. If one is found, Skylar's gonna try the same Celebrity Sleep strategy or he'll just use Paradise to try and gently weaken it with a Gust before throwing a Pokeball or two.

If at any point Skylar runs out of Pokeballs, just assume he goes onto Route 6 after the results are given for the catches. I don't wanna hold up a ton of progress and invalidate that you wrote so much for Route 6 that'll initially be wasted, but then ya hit me with a lot on Route 5. Sorry, Platty!
