Of course he was excited to have hatched his Toxel, but he could not comprehend why the good professor was literally bouncing with excitement. Well, that was until it was explained to him. [color=8493ca]"Shiny?"[/color] Basil looked down at the hatchling who in turn looked up at him with its half lidded relaxed stare. [color=8493ca]"Huh, so it's like winning the lottery in a way. I've probably used up all of my luck."[/color] The young noble chuckled though he was only half joking. Surviving and obtaining a Deino and now this? There was no way that the universe was going to keep going to keep rewarding him. It was only a matter of time before it happened. Those thoughts were broken though when he was met face to face with the vacant stare of Slowpoke. [color=8493ca]"I suppose they do."[/color] He cracked an amused smile. [i][color=8493ca]Who would've thought that I'd hatch something so rare. Maybe that's a sign of...wait. [/color][/i] His widened with realization as something dawned over Basil as he glanced back down at the shiny Toxel. [color=8493ca]"Oh my god."[/color] This little bundle of electric, toxic joy was one of the rarest Pokemon in all of Isson. If the shiny phenomenon was as rare occurrence as Kalmia said it was, then that meant they were highly sought after, but this was also a Pokemon not native to the region. In other words, it was a one of a kind. His only saving grace was that there had to be only a handful of people in this region that knew what Toxels were typically meant to look like, otherwise he may have attracted some very much unwanted attention from unsavory crowds. Suddenly, he felt very tired. [color=8493ca]"Well, thank you very much Professor. I can certainly say that this has been eventful."[/color] His face lit up as he remembered something. [color=8493ca]"Oh, uh, before I go, I really need to give you a heads up. Long story short, Ms. Lesley brought me to that island on Dragon Lake to catch a dragon, and I have a Deino now. You may want to stock up on protective gear and a sturdy chew toy."[/color] It was probably better that she never learned what he did. She'd probably have a heart attack. [color=8493ca]"I better let you go. I'll let you know what happens with Amelia. Talk to you later."[/color] Well, with that phone call out of the way he decided that he should probably let Amelia know that he was done with his business, wherever she was. Luckily, he already had her contact info courtesy of Professor Kalmia. [hider=Text Message] [right][color=8493ca]Hey Amelia, I sorted out my business. Just let me know when you're ready and I'll let you know where I am.[/color] [img]https://cdn3.emoji.gg/emojis/8227-ok.gif[/img][/right] [/hider] Was the emote a bit much? He had a feeling that Amelia was a bit tense around him, so he thought maybe that would've made her warmup to him a bit. Or maybe it had the opposite effect. The Toxel on his lap yawned and struggled to keep its eyes open. [color=8493ca]"It's been a big day for you, hasn't it? You can take a nap in your ball."[/color] Basil used one of his Pokeballs to house the baby Pokemon. There would be time to introduce the newest members to the rest of his team. [color=8493ca]"Now we wait."[/color] All he could do right now was just sit on that bench and do absolutely nothing. Well, actually there was something he could do. From his bag he took out his mandolin case and clicked it open. He placed the case down on the ground with the opening pointed towards anyone passing by and just started to play. The songs he played were probably old Issonian folk songs. Either someone would throw some change into his case, or the universe would throw something else at him.
