Camphor Pokemon Habitat A [hr] Camphor watched the trainers enter the habitat with some manner of curiosity. Well, they'd be back when they got back. For now, after taking the mug from Ryuichi she'd carelessly place it on a nearby desk and retrieve a suitcase from against the far back wall and set it next to it. And of course, the first person to jump on showing her their pokemon was Melissa. Camphor's lips subtly turned down before giving a huff and turning to the bouncy girl and her pokemon. "Azurill. In fact, they are a normal and fairy typing, though its later two evolutions are water and fairy." Camphor responded tiredly, reaching out and ruffling the pokemon's head lightly. "Extremely friendly, and their tails are very important for their growth." Camphor gently picked up the small pokemon, proceeding to pet it perhaps a little more than necessary as she'd give the pokemon a brief inspection. "This one seems very well raised from what I can tell. Make sure you take good care of it. Azurill evolve primarily when they feel strong friendship and kinship with their trainer." She'd pass the pokemon back to Melissa before. "...and thanks for not...bouncing too much - hwaeh?" Camphor stumbled as the ground rumbled lightly. Ah right, the Onix. Camphor exhaled, adjusting her labcoat to be a tad bit more presentable as she'd leave Mellissa and the Azurill, turning instead towards the Onix and Lina. "Hm. Onix. Quite a difficult pokemon to raise, considering its size and their preferred habitat, Lina." Camphor walked over looking up at the pokemon that was objectively much taller than she was. "Its stones seem sturdy, healthy and...hm, maybe a bit of iron already forming? Maybe not." The professor reached out and lightly would pet the Onix on the stones lower on its body. "Jorm was it? Try not to wreck my lab while you're out, thanks. The area around Rivenwall has a good environment for Jorm, if you'd be interested Lina." Camphor then turned her attention from the large rock type towards the much smaller fighting type monkey. Lively. Glaring in an obviously displeased manner, though such a thing wasn't unusual for a Mankey really. "Well Miharu..." Camphor cast a glance towards the other woman. "...Taking care of a mankey is no easy thing, considering their usual temperament." Camphor didn't recklessly touch or pet the mankey like she had with Azurill or jorm - setting one of these critters off was a good way to get her lab wrecked. "They're also rather rare in Eidda, since they're not really native in the region completely." The walked a slow circle around the pokemon, nodding. "...hm, well taken care off. Fur is quite soft looking for a mankey. If you are planning to head up to the ruins...well, he'll do a good job. Just bring a jacket or a fire type because it can get a little frigid up there." She'd then turn to Jack and his Elekid. She'd move over to where the electric type was, hand to her chin, studying it curiously. "Elekid. Electric type. I do wonder what you were doing around Giants Watch. Its not exactly a field or electromagnetically active area like Thunderpoint peak or the Eiddan plains. I suppose they do make their homes in rocky areas, too, but...hm." She'd kneel next to the pokemon, studying it curiously. "You seem healthy and well taken care of." Nodding, she'd whisper then to the pokemon a little so that jack couldn't hear her. "Let me know if Jack doesn't let you get energy. The lab has plenty of budget for a bit more power use. And Mr. Gallagher...huh?" Camphor blinked, watching as Victor announced that he was going to go find a pokemon. She responded with a small chuckle as he left. Well, it was probably fine. That just left one last pokemon. "Galarian Ponyta. A little too colorful for me, but I had one myself when I was in Rossaden Academy." She'd walk over to Fantasia, reaching out and gently placing a hand on the pokemon's snout. They say these pokemon can tell a persons intentions by gazing into a persons eyes, and if they find a person is evil they'll flee." Camphor turned towards Stella with a small smile. "Well, she looks healthy and lively. Galarian ponyta aren't found here naturally, but Eidda has plenty of space for her to run around and stretch those legs." Unfortunately it seemed this was about as long as she was going to have for some individual meet and greets. The trainers that went into the habitat were fairly quick all things considered and she wasnt going to sit around and not get the ball rolling to get them out of here. She had other things to do anyways. "Wew, seems im just in time." Risette would be one of the last ones to make her way back out of the habitat. Dusty was planted firmly on her head, giving the gathered people an excitable, toothy grin - sun glasses still worn on his snout, arriving at just about the same time as Tilly did. "...Stufful, huh?" Risette commented idly. "Diiiile." "Ahahaha, come on Dusty, no you can't eat the Stufful." The sandile flicked its tail, chomping its teeth a little in the Stufful direction. "Sorry, this little fella seems a bit too eager to fight. Did I get your name earlier, blondie? I'm Risette." She briefly glanced around to see if Ryuuichi was here, but he seemed like he was going to be a little late, but...hm. Well, if he couldn't swim she couldn't be bothered to really help more than she already did. "Alright," Camphor stood up from where she was kneeling and turned towards Toshi. "Hmph. Dont overthink it, Toshi. Remember you're my assistants. I dont care if you do the gym challenge, but I do have things and work I need you to do for me...and speaking of." The professor would turn towards all the gathered trainers. "ALRIGHT EVERYONE GET BACK HERE. TIMES UP DONT MAKE ME COME FIND ANY OF YOU!" For such a tiny person, she could throw her voice around louder than an Exploud. Whenever everyone would reconvene at the entrance of the habitat, the professor would start again. "Alright, Listen up, I'm not gonna say anything twice, and hope you did everything you want because your time in the habitat is done for now." She'd walk over to the briefcase she had taken earlier and fiddle with the lock on it for a few seconds. A quiet click later, and the top of it snapped open. "Alright, so just a reminder for everyone. You technically are my employees, so act like it out there. Don't cause me problems and don't drag me or this lab into anything that would give me a headache, got it?" She'd start, opening the suitcase fully and spinning it around for the group of trainers to see. "Now, to start with I have some things for everyone." State of the art custom made pokedexes were inside colored primarily white with green striping and embellishments. They looked extremely high tech, an oval shaped device that could fit into the palm of ones hand. A small groove ran down the middle of it. "Made these myself. Custom software, functions as both a communication device, scan pokemon from a fair and safe distance, and has a near permanent uplink to the database here at the lab, and comes with a bunch of other functions. Weather, map, functions as a phone - and a direct line to me if you need anything. Please, please, hesitate to call. It also has all of yours numbers registered so if you need to reach someone, its easy enough too.” She'd grumble, demonstrating the device. The two halves of the device slid apart, revealing a sturdy screen in the middle. "It also has a virtual assistant that Frieda put a lot of work into that can handle most questions and as I said, has a direct uplink here to the lab so I can monitor your progress as far as catching and finding pokemon goes. Its also programmed with your trainer IDs, and will function as a Level 1 Research ID. That is, you can freely access the lab and anywhere on the Ground floor here and in affiliated labs across Eidda. The lab in Mireth comes to mind as well as the Mexatus Institute. It wont get you anywhere extremely important, though. It has remote box access and we can remotely give you your pokemon at any point, supposing the connection is good enough. Don’t go to some powerfully electromagnetically charged area or super far underground, or extremely rural area, though, and expect it to work." Camphor would pass a device to each of the trainers. "Go ahead. Scan your starters." When each trainer got to the point of booting up the pokedex, it would start with a simple bootup sequence displaying the logo of what was presumably camphors lab. A simple stylized 'C' colored green and white. It lasted only for a few seconds before the pokedex properly started...and each and every trainer was greeted by what could only be described as a small, chibi version of Camphor that would pop out of the side of the screen and walk across it and proceed to inform the trainer about the pokemon they had scanned...along with perhaps some more personal opinions of the pokemon in question.

Riolu, the Emanation pokemon. Found in caves and spartan mountains, the diminutive pokemon has a special ability to read and see emotions. Often found training to better themselves and challenging pokemon much stronger than themselves. A favorite of trainers with steadfast principles and a loyal pokemon through and through.

Ah, Impidimp. Aren't they adorable? It was also the first pokemon I had. Mischievous troublemakers, but they supposedly feed off of negative emotion so its not entirely their fault. They like to live in groups in the wild, often times in forests and will often play pranks on each other and people they happen to come across - but I can personally speak that despite everything they're affectionate and helpful in their own way.

Stufful, the flailing pokemon. Despite its extremely cute and fluffy appearance, its arms pack a pretty serious punch. Dont carelessly approach one unless you want to find yourself on the receiving end of its protective flailing. They're found often enough in forests, and they're a popular pokemon so they're often seen in cities. Whatever Frieda says, I do not have a giant Bewear Plushie.

Budew, the Bud pokemon. A baby pokemon that is extremely sensitive to changes in the weather. Its bud's pollen contains potent poison, and if raised well next to clean and clear water, it only makes the poison stronger. During winter, the bud remains firmly closed to conserve energy, and when it opens it usually mean springs close. I can't be around them for long - I'm extremely allergic to their pollen.

Nincada, the trainee pokemon. Found buried in the ground during the day in forests and living under thick roots of trees. Nincada are nearly blind thanks to living most of their lives underground, sucking up sap and nutrients from the tree roots it makes its nest under. Its antennae are typically what it uses to sense or see the world. They're not particularly sturdy pokemon, so take care when raising it.

Elekid, the Electric pokemon. Loves to live in areas with strong electromagnetism or areas with frequent storms or more rocky areas. I loves thunder and electricity, often times trying to sneak a meal from equipment and houses. However, they can not store much electricity so it typically ends with a never-ending cycle of eating, quickly tiring out, and then wanting more. They spin their arms to generate a charge, but quickly tire when doing so. During thunderstorms, they're known to be very rowdy and difficult to control.

Mankey, the Pig Monkey pokemon. Honestly, I couldn't train one of these guys. Too much of a headache. Often living in groups in mountains, jungles and forests, Mankey spend a good portion of their life in a perpetual state of anger. Even when docile and calm, it could switch moods instantly - which only makes most pokemon avoid it, which in turn, only makes it angrier. A group of mankey is not to be underestimated.

Living primarily in rocky mountains, tunnels, and underground, this pokemon spends a majority of its life eating minerals and rocks while it bores through the ground at high speed.

If it sense warm feelings, though, its body warms up and is quite a delight to hold, and it prefers people with a more positive and less gloomy disposition. No, I'm not jealous because they tend to avoid me. Shut up. They are difficult to find and often don't show themselves before people, but those with a more positive outlook tend to attract them.

The Desert Croc pokemon. Living in hot deserts or rocky land, Sandile spend the days buried under the sand with just their eyes or snout visible, shielded from a dark membrane across their eyes. They love warm places, as they are prone to their body temperature being low so they often bask in the sun. As it is, its not particularly good at hunting still, so it mostly scavenges from other pokemon and cleans whats left behind. Personally, they're too hot and a little rambunctious for me...

"Dont be surprised, that's literally your job I'm paying you for." She'd close the briefcase and fold her arms across her chest. "You get paid for both simple scanning a pokemon, and once for catching it. Amount is variable depending on the pokemon in question. Generally, rarer pokemon will get you more. Feel free to scan other pokemon too. Useful survey data for who has what." She'd pull out her own cell phone and narrow her eyes at it. "...now get out of here. I'm late for a meeting with someone...and stay out of the habitat. We'll be changing it soon. Otherwise, do whatever you want. Frieda can answer any questions." She'd take the briefcase and shove it into Frieda's arms rather unceremoniously.
