Not everyone made their first post yet is that right?

The Start of a New Adventure (Pokemon)

Well I got a post up. It's not really what I thought it was going to be and I don't think it's all that good but I got something ;)
I've met the informant at Brock's gym yaaay! XD

The Start of a New Adventure (Pokemon)

Rose was sitting comfortably on a wooden bench outside of the pokemon centre of Pewter City, enjoying strawberry ice cream with Budew at her side.

"I'm glad we got through the forest in one piece" Rose said to the tiny bud pokemon sitting next to her, Budew nodded in agreement and closed her eyes to enjoy the sunshine. Budew didn't need any food and got all her nutrients the same way plants did, by feeding of water and sunlight. They had a really close bond and Rose talked to Budew often, even before she left to become a pokemon trainer. Her mother had a couple of pokemon around the house most of which were grass type pokemon. They lived in the garden and helped to care for the flowers and plants. Grass pokemon had a special connection to nature and that's why Rose loved them. She felt that same connection and while they might not be the strongest or the toughest looking pokemon they were her favorite. The Budew she owned was a gift of her brother. He had caught it especially for her and luckily Budew liked her instantly. So when she left she knew Budew was the pokemon she wanted at her side.

"Do you think we did the right thing, leaving Caterpie behind in the forest?" She asked looking down at Budew. When Rose mentioned Caterpie her pokemon moved closer to her until it touched her side. It stayed like that wanting to be near to its trainer. Budew had fun playing with Caterpie earlier in the forest and liked him right away. Maybe she was sad Rose had to leave Caterpie behind?
"We'll find you a friend soon, don't worry Budew" "You can't beat the gym leaders all by yourself" She said in a reassuring voice patting Budew's head.

Rose had seen the Gym when she arrived in Pewter City but didn't go near it yet. She didn't know what kind of pokemon the gym leader even used. She was hesitant because she didn't know if Budew could beat them all on her own, she would hate to put her though too much. She wanted to prove she could actually accomplish something that had nothing to do with the way she looked. Rose didn't want her success to depend on that. The problem being she wasn't very confident in her battling skills.

It was a nice day and for some reason Rose had enough of doubting herself with every step she took. So she rose from the bench and scooped Budew up in her arms. I'm going to see what this gym is all about. She thought striding towards the Pewter Gym with purposeful steps. When she reached the gym she was greeted by an employee of the Gym.

"Good morning my name is Brandon and welcome to...." He began his standard speech but then he looked up to face her and lost his cool for a few seconds, he nervously checked his watch and suddenly realized it was already noon.
"Oh right good afternoon, excuse me" He offered her his apology and rubbed the back of his head somewhat nervously. He sucked in his breath before continuing, but couldn't seem to look away.
"Welcome to the Pewter City Gym, where you will face Brock who specialized in rock type pokemon.

Rose felt her cheeks flush at the reaction of the Brandon. Sometimes people behaved like that around her but it made her more nervous than anything. It was really embarrassing for her as well. Brandon noticed the Budew the girl was holding in her arms.
"Are you planning to face Brock with that cutie?" He said pointing to her Budew.

"I um not really sure yet, do you think we could do it?" Rose asked sounding a bit unsure of herself.

Brandon hesitated not wanting to bring her down but the tiny bud in her arms would be crushed underneath Brock's rock types. She did have the type advantage but he doubted that would be enough.

"Well...." He began trying to find the right words so he wouldn't discourage her too much.
"Grass pokemon like the one you're holding are strong against rock pokemon but it's too small" "I'd say you better let it evolve first."

Brandon kind of confirmed what she'd already been thinking of. Budew was really close to evolving but she needed another pokemon battle with a strong pokemon. Rose was sure that would be enough to let her evolve. She smiled at Brandon and looked down for a minute locking a piece of hair behind her ear. She squinted to read the name tag attached to his shirt.
"Thanks for the tips....Brandon"
"Do you know if there are any trainers around town?"
She decided to put his tips to use right away, if Budew evolved she would be able to challenge Brock. Winning her first badge would show everyone and herself she could really become the pokemon trainer she wanted to be.

It's no probem at all! I really enjoyed your post a lot :)
There is no need to hurry things along we should have the most fun we can ^.^

Great additions you made to Matthew's sheet, I like how you gave Hope a fear of bug pokemon after she got attacked by Beedril.
The character tab is really neat like that, we can use it to keep track of things that happen during the story. Like Hope's fear of bug pokemon and any new pokemon we catch or "acquire" like hoppip :)

He's soooo cute! I think Rose is totally going to steal him from you. Kidding XD
I will be posting tomorrow because I want to think things through for a bit, to see if I can come up with something good.

The Resistance [High-Casual] (Superhuman RP)

I'm here and very much alive, how are you guys doing?

The Start of a New Adventure (Pokemon)

Great first post!, it was really funny too :)
I didn't interact with Matthew yet since we'll probably be interacting a lot in the future too. But you can start up interaction if you like.

The Start of a New Adventure (Pokemon)

Budew sat contently in the arms of Rose, the picture of serenity while her trainer still squealed and jumped at every sound she heard in the forest. Rose loved nature so why was she so skittish in the forest, usually the most peaceful place one could think of. It wasn't the forest itself that scared her but the things that were lurking in the undergrowth. She wasn't the most experienced pokemon trainer she would be the first to admit that. Together with budew she'd participated in a handful of battles nearly of all which she lost. The small pokemon was still a bit too frail to go up against pokemon that had already evolved and knew powerful moves. Her brother told her it was close to evolving and after it turned into a Roselia it would have a better chance in pokemon battles. Rose was worried the bug pokemon in Viridian Forest could seriously hurt her Budew. Bug pokemon evolved very quickly and she might have to face a fully evolved pokemon.

Hopefully she could get in some practice before that happened.

Rose was so lost in her own thoughts that she wasn't looking where she was going. Suddenly her Budew jumped from her arms landing on the ground, making tiny noises to draw the attention of her trainer. Rose realized her tiny bud pokemon was no longer in her arms and looked down at the ground and raised her brows in surprise. There was a small green caterpillar laying on its back on the middle of the path. It was a Caterpie and it was in very bad shape. Its eyes were closed and Rose could see his chest going up and down slowly but very faintly. It had a nasty mark on the side of its tiny body. It looked like the mark of a stinger but Rose didn't touch it, afraid she'd hurt the pokemon even more.
Budew gently nudged Caterpie's head with one of the vines on her head. It slowly opened his eyes but couldn't do much else.

Her heart went out to the tiny bug and Rose immediately began to rummage through her messenger bag to find the potions and the antidotes she bought earlier. Caterpie probably got poisoned by one of the other pokemons in the forest. If the cashier hadn't advised her to get a couple of antidotes she wouldn't have been able to help this Caterpie. So it just goes to show that you need to stock up regardless, you never knew who needed it. Rose momentarily forgot about her surroundings, no longer bothered by the lack of light filtering through or the creepy shadows of the trees. She very softly sprayed some of the antidote on Caterpie's side before she fed him the potion through its mouth, all with great care and gentleness.

It took only a couple of minutes and Caterpie was up and walking again.....well crawling was more like it but hey. Rose was amazed at how fast the medicine worked and she smiled happily glad to see Caterpie was okay again. She rose from the ground and smoothed her dress, all the while Caterpie kept looking at her with his large doe eyes.
"So where did you come from?" Rose asked the tiny pokemon at her feet. Obviously it did not say anything back.

She took a good look around her, there were trees and bushes at both sides of the path. What should I do with him now? Even though it would be fun to have a new pokemon Caterpie would probably be best of in the forest until it evolved. It wasn't easy to train a fragile pokemon like Caterpie she knew from experience.

Budew began to play with Caterpie teasing him with her vines and running circles around it. It didn't seem to mind much, in fact judging from the gleam in his eyes he seemed to enjoy it. Rose bent down to their level and scooped Caterpie up in her arms much like she always carried Budew around.
"Alright enough you two" She said to the two pokemon, trying to sound firm but failing miserably. Rose could feel Caterpie sticking to her arms but she wasn't grossed out by it, he was harmless really. It would probably be best to put him into the trees where he could munch on the leaves. Determined to bring the bug pokemon back where it belonged Rose carefully stepped into the bushes to the nearest tree. She tried to get Caterpie off of her but he held on tight with his sticky feet. It tickled when she tried to move him.

Rose laughed as she tried to get Caterpie to let her go.
"Come on Caterpie you can't stick to me forever" She giggled and shook her head finding its clinginess quite adorable. "You have to go home"
When she finally got him on a steady tree branch she was suddenly looking into a pair of sinister black beady eyes. A cacuna had lowered itself from the top branches to see what all the noise was about. Without realizing Rose let out a scream, one she immediately regretted. She quickly covered her mouth, her eyes widened. It would be pretty stupid to wait around and see what happened so without further thought she snatched Caterpie back from the tree, grabbed her bag from the ground and put Budew back into her poke ball. She made a mad dash for the path and kept running without turning back, Caterpie still in her arms.

The Start of a New Adventure (Pokemon)

Name: Rose
Age: 16
Personality:
Rose is a kind and sweet young girl, who puts the needs of others before her own. People usually expect her to have a lot of confidence due to her beauty but actually she's really insecure. The fact that people think she's beautiful makes her incredibly self conscious and doubtful of herself. She doesn't know if they like her for her or because of the way she looks. Aside from her insecurities she has an adventurous spirit which often forces her to push aside her fears and take a leap of faith. She has an almost childish curiousity and loves to go to new places and cities. When she grows closer to someone she will start to feel more at ease which brings out her more mischivous side.
Backstory:
Rose grew up in a tight knit family with two older brothers to watch over her. Her mother worked at the much famed flower shop in the sprawling metropolis Goldenrod City. She doesn't remember much of her father and the only thing she knowns for sure is that he and her mother seperated when she was really young. To provide the flower shop with the flowers they needed for sale Rose and her mother grew their own garden at the back of the house. It was well known throughout Goldenrod City that the flowers of the shop were of superb quality. People from all over Johto came to Goldenrod City to buy their flowers there.

Her older brothers were very protective of her, sticking up for her when needed. They kept all the boys who were interested in her miles away. When her brothers left to become pokemon trainers a lot of the boys in New Bark Town were finally able to ask her out. Rose soon felt they only wanted her as a girlfriend to show her off to their friends. So she decided she wanted out of New Bark Town and become a pokemon trainer herself. Nobody thought she was able to do it and she wanted to prove them wrong.

Rose

Rose had been dropped off at Viridian City by her older brother and was currently standing in front of the Poke Mart considering if she would go inside or not. True to its name of The City of Evergreen Viridian City was surrounded by lush trees in all directions. Everywhere you looked they rose up like a green wall, impenetrable. She was fresh out of any kind of medicine and she didn't have any poke balls yet either. Her brother told her it would probably be a good idea to stock up on both since the Bug pokemon in Viridian Forest were pretty nasty. They could really hurt her Budew who wasn't much of a fighter to begin with. How was she going to protect herself and Budew if they got attacked by a wild Beedril or something else? Maybe she should have taken up her brother's offer to borrow one of his pokemon. Or maybe this was all one huge mistake and she should just go back home.

No... She said firmly to herself. If she was allowing doubt to bring her down how was she going to prove everyone wrong? Determined to be well prepared she entered the Poke Mart. It wasn't very busy this early in the day so Rose could casually browse through the wares. They had quite a lot of items on sale and Rose put a couple of potions into her basket, along with five poke balls. When she got to the register she was greeted by a very cheerful cashier.

"Good morning!" "How may I help you today?" The young woman said with a bright and cheerful smile. She took out the items Rose had placed into her basket.
"Ah I see you are planning to go to Viridian Forest, you'd better stock up on some antidotes too"
Antidotes?? Rose thought with a questioning look on her face.
Didn't trainers use those to cure their pokemons from poisoning? Budew wouldn't need any because her ability healed her of any status problems the second she returned to her poke ball, but then again you could never be too sure.
"Uhmm sure I'd like two antidotes please." Rose added somewhat awkwardly. The woman didn't seem to mind much and added the two antidotes to the small plastic bag containing her potions and poke balls. After Rose had paid the cashier handed her the bag.
"Here you go dear, have a wonderful day"

Rose attempted a smile of her own and managed a small one, blushing due to her awkwardness. She quickly ran out of the store, once outside she took a deep breath. How in the world could people be so cheerful this early in the day? She was a ball of nerves about to go into Viridian Forest with no idea what she was going to encounter there. All she knew was that it was so dense the sun had trouble shining through the cover of branches.

Inside Viridian Forest

The aspiring pokemon trainer found herself deep into the Viridian Forest and when Rose glanced over her shoulder she couldn't see the entrance clearing anymore. It made her nervous to say the least and she thanked her lucky stars she hadn't encountered any scary wild pokemon. Budew was clutched closely to her chest and she seemed to rather enjoy being in the forest despite the lack of sunlight. It was a comical contrast compared to the trainer holding her.
"Now listen closely Budew" Rose carefully whispered to the small pokemon in her arms. She didn't want to disturb any sleeping pokemon and risk having them attack her, so she kept as quiet as possible.
"If you see any scary pokemon coming our way you need to chase them off with your stun spore.......got it?"
The tiny bulb nodded and continued to stare at the trees peacefully, as if there weren't any bug pokemon out there to kill them.

"Good, so let's hurry" Rose told Budew as she straightened the folds of her cream colored sundress. She wanted to look nice for her first day of traveling but now started to regret her choice of clothes. With this much skin showing she could easily get stung by any of the pokemon here. She should have thought things through a little better. Well, too late to turn back now. She thought as she put a strand of hair behind her ear. Eager to get out of the forest Rose continued on her way, keeping a weary eye on her surroundings.
