Devon the Totodile and Raiden the Feraligatr

[Folio Town - Guild Dining Hall]

@Ninian
The gator's slit pupils moved down to look over the shiny Kirlia that had pipped. A kind smile crossing Raiden's maw as he spoke. "I wasn't going to, don't worry. Mother and daughter wasn't the vibe I got from that conversation you two had earlier, so I just assumed you were a fan of hers. It's nice to properly meet you Lilisette." He then turned his attention back to the Gardevoir dancer and crossed his arms. "I don't think that's strange. If it's what you enjoy, than go for it. Your shows always bring a good mood to town."

Looking down at the floor for a moment, the scarred Feraligatr thought for a moment with a slight frown. "Actually, I understand the feeling of not knowing what else to do besides what you know. A few years ago, I actually tried settling down and just...Living in a village with my friends. It was strange, not being out there exploring the world and fighting. But I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy the peace I found there."

Shaking his head, Raiden sat up straighter and brought back the friendly smile. "Eventually, duty called, and here I am now. Back at it again. I guess I just can't keep myself out of the dungeons. Though, a big part of it for me is helping out Pokémon. So it's not that bad."

Devon was busy starring at a bowl of Sitrus berries that sat on the table not far from his seat. The hungry look in his deep brown eyes was blinked away as he looked far upwards at the final form Big Jaw Pokémon. "So what actually is your job Raiden? Are you a member of some other Guild? I'm just guessing since it sounds like you do the same thing."

The towering mon shook his head. "No, I'm not apart of any Guild. Just a small Rescue Team with my friends. Rescue Teams do generally the same work as the Guilds, we just don't report to any sort of higher power. Most of them only operate on the Air Continent though, they're called Exploration Teams everywhere else."

The Totodile seemed contented with the answer, giving a nod. "Oh, ok. That makes sense. I'm uh...New here, so I just don't have a grasp on the whole Exploration Team thing yet." The scaled child then seemed to perk up a bit as he looked towards Lilisette with a grin. "Oh yeah! Lilisette, I didn't tell you about our team name yet did I? Selena thought it up for us while we were at the clinic. What do you think of the name, 'Team Horizon'? I think it fits pretty well."

Letho the Sableye

[Folio's Trunk - Waypoint]

@Ninian@Shiny Keldeo
The imp cursed under his breath as his attack appeared to be ineffective against the odd collection of Unown. His glittering gaze met Lilith's as he shot her a shit eating, sharp toothed grin. Hands against his hips as he leaned in slightly. "When there's some loony running around in our tree trying to whack civis, you can bet your ass we're the first ones to know about it dollface. We already got a nice cell with your name on it!"

How does she know Karaha?....Doesn't matter, she ain't gonna tell me...We gotta act fast, get those damn things off of Gren....

The little Shaymin behind him offered to cover him if he chose to run to Fuse's side. Turning his head his head to look behind his shoulder up at Breeze on her perch, he shot two fingers as he dropped to one knee and began digging around in his bag. "Nah, don't worry about me. Just get Gren out of that thing while me and Fuse handle those two."

A streak of purple zipped across the mossy floored room and ended in the form of Letho appearing beside the Luxio. A small blue orb resting behind his right foot. Giving the lion a friendly knock on the shoulder, the Sableye then held up his claws in a grappling stance, while aiming his unsettling grin at the black Gardevoir. "Anytime Sparky! Let's kick some ass!"

Letho's features remained static as he continued to stare intently at the winged Psychic, his head tilting a bit too far to the left to be natural. "I'm not gonna sugar coat this dollface; I have no clue what you're doing here, or what you want with some random kid from town. It's obviously something big considering the show you're putting on and the fact that most lunatics don't give choices like you do, but in the end I don't really care why you're doing this. You're doing it, it ain't cool, so I'm gonna put you in your place-"

Suddenly, the imps form melted away into the shadows on the ground. A cool, cocky voice ringing out behind the winged Fairy. "-And teach you how to play nice."

Letho would then jump out of the floor behind Lilith, and attempt to drive the orb in his palm directly into her back. If it made contact, the orb would shatter and the Gardevoir would begin to feel her entire body tighten up and become immobile. [LETHO used SHADOW SNEAK/PETRIFY ORB!]

[Forest Beyond Route 701]

@Ninian
A saddened frown fell upon Devon's face as he looked upon the downcast fox. The reoccurring dream was something that Nasir had talked about many times previous, and the fact that the Trainer could do little to help the Zoroark always made him feel even worse. Aw man. I don't think it will either....I'm sorry Nasir.

A small smile came over the crimson hoodied teenager as he went back to walking beside the Dark-type and nodded at the question. Thankful for the subject change. "Yup. You know, one of those little brown and grey birds we see in Sinnoh. Ever since Flappers left, I knew I wanted to catch one someday..."

The boy paused for a moment to look off into the trees and reminisced about his old friend, before looking back to Nasir and shrug. "Anyways, just be on the look out for any traces of one Fuzzy. Brown and grey feathers, nests, turds, that sort of stuff."

Letho the Sableye

[Folio's Trunk - Waypoint]

@Ninian@Shiny Keldeo
As Breeze began her explanation, Letho got to his knees and began rummaging through his satchel. Nodding at the grassy little hedgehog's bio of her species. "Oh, so that's how you guys work. Cool. I've heard of Shaymin before and you all got your own little settlement out there on one of the continents, but I'm lame. Never left the Sand Continent to go check it out for myself." Pulling out a few scraps of paper and a crude fire striker made of simple flint and steel. He then turned his head to look upon the Shaymin with an honest, non-stupid smile for once. "The flower looks good on ya Breeze. Anyways, there should be a little stone fire pit around here we can spark so we don't freeze our asses off...."

Then everything went wrong, of course.

Dozens of odd black letters appeared around the Darkness Pokémon's client, causing him to drop the primitive tool in his claws and curse. "Son of a, BITCH! Looks like we got some action after all! Ay Sparky! Quit contemplating life over there and look alive!"

The shadowy mon stood up, getting into a defensive stance with arms raised as he stepped out in front of Breeze to guard her from the attacking letters if they were to spread their assault to the tiny mon. "Stay behind me Breeze, we got this one."

A dark, wavy aura collected into the Sableye's hands as he aimed his palms at the Unown. (LETHO used DARK PULSE!) The sinister beam devoid of color blasted towards the hostile alphabet as Letho barked into the shadow of the roots. "Hey lady! These rocks stuck to my face are my eyes! And they can see your wanted ass pretty clearly! Fuse, mind showing the winged Garde a good time!?"

[Route 701 - Pokémon Center]

@Shiny Keldeo
If the patient Fire Mouse were to look far to his right, he would be greeted by an unoccupied bed. The sheets and comforter on the cushy mattress being folded messily near it's bottom left corner. The white backpack and crimson zipper hoodie nowhere to be found near the bed's base. Bits of fur in various colors sprinkled along practically the entire surface area of the thing. And if the little Cyndaquil looked even further to the right, he would discover a small note of paper sitting on the bedside table with the following written on it:

'Out to catch a Starly and do some training, call if you need me. 81-0422-2007'

@Ninian
"Ah...It's actually a pretty great morning huh Fuzzy?"

The scarred brunet commented as he strolled along beside his fluffy companion through the dew wet grass. Large patches of sunlight snuck in between the leafy treetops and occasionally lit Devon's face as he walked with hands behind his head. The woods were quiet, save for the occasional chirp of a Pidgey or chitter of a local Bug-type. Tiny twigs snapped under the teen's feet as he brushed aside a small shrub and pushed past it. Turning around and walking backwards to face Nasir, he yawned. "Oh, I forgot to ask, did you sleep good? Have any dreams?"

Devon the Totodile

[Valiant Village - Town Square]

@Ninian@Shiny Keldeo

A few minutes later....

Devon, Celty, and the Riolu twins swiftly left the dojo to finally take a proper tour of the town. The hustle and bustle of the midday appeared to be starting up, as the streets were a flurry of motion with many mon going about their business. The beaten up Totodile of the group titled his head upwards to look towards the grand statue in the square as he did yesterday, and smiled. "Ya know, the town's alot nicer when everyone's not running around screaming. I'm liking this already." His brown eyes then settled on the two blue canines leading him. "So, what're some fun places to go in Valiant Village guys?"

Raiden the Feraligatr, Furno the Blaziken, and Glyph the Flygon

[Folio Town - Outside the Guild Dinning Hall]

The cloaked Feraligatr casually walked down the hall, hood flopping on his back as he approached the dinning hall entrance. Only to be stopped just as he was about to turn into the doorway by a feathery arm. "And where do you think you're going scaly?"

A sort of snarky voice called out. The voice belonging to the same owner as the arm in the form of a Blaziken leaning his claws against the wall. Blocking Raiden's path to the noisy room while giving the gator a shit eating grin. "I haven't seen you around here before. This dinner's for guildies and dancers. The shady character buffet is actually in the sketchy alley down the street." Awkwardly pausing, the birds face contorted oddly as he sniffed. "Hold on, why do you smell like Razz berries? They your favourite snack or something?"

The sight of the rude Blaziken simply caused Raiden to pause and scan over the Fire-Fighting type below him with oddly tame orange eyes. The Water-type seemingly not bothered by the reaction. "The berry smell is from a Scent. It's so that I don't smell like that alleyway you think I'm heading to. I was actually invited here by Pyrrha. You can go ask her for yourself if you don't believe me."

The fire bird took a quick look over his shoulder into the dinning room, before glancing back over at the towering figure. He then crossed his arms and leaned his entire body against the wall. "Maybe she did, maybe she didn't. But I'm doing my own investigation. What I wanna know is, who exactly are you scaly?" The Blaziken then began to list off on his claws, and do a few non nonchalant hand gestures. "What's your name, where'd you blow in from, that sorta thing. Then I'll know if you're cool or not."

A few metallic jingles came underneath Raiden's cloak before he sighed and brought out his arms to cross them over his chest. The dirty cloth raising slightly to show off his scarred stomach and the bag hanging next to it. "My name's Raiden. I grew up on the Air Continent in a small village called Daneza, near Waterfall Lake. I'm apart of a Rescue Team with a few friends of mine. We just go around the world taking jobs anywhere we can. That good enough for you Blaziken?" The raspy voiced giant said with surprising speed. Almost as if he had rehearsed the line. His eye contact with the bird remaining unbroken throughout the explanation.

The fighter didn't really expect such a direct answer to his question. The Blaze Pokémon gawking slightly at the story before shaking his head. "The name's Furno. And it's a start. What's the name of this team of yours?"

A silver winged egg was then held out to the feathery mon. "Spitewarden. Not really the biggest name out there, we're no Team A.C.T, but we do what we do well enough."

Before the Blaziken had a chance to comment on the name, a somewhat annoyed huff came from behind him. "Furno. Instead of interrogating our guests, would you please go tell Robel that dinner is starting?"

Going stiff for a moment, Furno spun around and groaned. "Yes sir Guildmaster..." Another glance behind him at Raiden, and the bird walked off down the hall and further into the Guild.

A sigh escaped the Flygon as he muttered something to himself then held out his hand to the Feraligatr with an apologetic smile. "Apologies for Furno's behaviour. He can come off a bit....Rude to newcomers. Though it is usually in jest. I am Glyph, and you are?"

Stuffing the badge back into his bag, Raiden returned to handshake and smile. "I'm Raiden. And it's fine, alot of mon tend to make assumptions when they first meet me. But I like to think I'm not that bad."

A slight chuckle escaped the dragon's maw as he took his hand away. "I'm sure you're a fine Pokémon Raiden. I had heard that one of the dancers had invited someone, but I did not get a chance to confirm the details. Please, go have a seat. A Rescue Team member is always welcome here."

"Thank you." The Water-type said with a slight bow. And with that, the gator strolled into the dining hall.

Devon the Totodile and Raiden the Feraligatr

[Folio Town - Guild Dining Hall]

@Ninian
A sort of confused frown spread along the Totodile's maw as Pyrrha commented on his resemblance to someone he didn't even know. "'Raiden's child'? Who's Raiden?" Eyes peering down for a moment, a thought shot through his mind like a bolt of lightning. I apparently look like this Raiden guy....Is she talking about that weird Feraligatr that we keep seeing around town?

After Lilisette cleared up the confusion, Devon quickly waved off the dancer's apology with a slight smile. "No no, It's ok. It's a safe assumption when there's two rare Pokémon in the same evolution chain running around in the same weird place. My name's Devon, by the way." Though his smile still remained on his face, a tinge of sadness shined in the corner of his eye as he turned back to look at his currently empty plate. "I actually don't have any parents. At least, I don't remember having any. I'm sure they're out there somewhere, but I don't think I'll be able to look for them for a long time..."

~~~

The cloaked Feraligatr finally entered through the doorway and into the Dinning Hall. The vast spread of food, drink, and crowd of Pokémon caused him to sigh. A smile tugging at his jaws as he looked to the wall on his right. A row of wood hooks lined the wall that held everyone's bags, and with a shrug, the gator quickly took off his ragged cloth and bag to hang them up on one of the empty hooks. Now leaving him almost completely naked save for the metal tube and milky pearl still hanging around his neck. The evidence of Raiden's battle stricken life blatantly painted his rough blue scales in the form of many odd marks and scars. His brave orange eyes scanning the room for some sort of place to sit, and upon spotting one, made his way over to it despite the many questioning glances and whispers he was generating.

"Hey Pyrrha, I'm not late am I?" The large Big Jaw Pokémon joked as he planted himself on the ground next to Devon. The appearance of the aforementioned Feraligatr causing the Pokémon sharing his evolution line to look up at him and cross his arms. "So you're Raiden right? You never really told us your name when we met you those few other times."

Propping a knee up to rest his left arm atop it, the gator rubbed his the back of his neck awkwardly. He himself panting a bit from the heat. "Oh, yeah, I am. Sorry for not telling you earlier. I've just had..." His sharp, slit eyes averted for a moment. "....Alot on my mind lately. It's nothing you guys need to worry about."

A sort of dopey smile returned to his face as he looked down at his previous form. "You know, It's pretty rare for me to run into a Totodile. Especially out here in the desert. It's nice to meet another Pokémon in the same line this far from home ya know? It makes it feel like it isn't as far away as it really is." Holding out a single clawed digit to Devon, he grinned. "What's your name kid?"

Taking hold of the clawed finger, Devon returned the grin. "Devon. It's cool that I met a Fearligatr of all things out here too. I get to see a preview of what I'm gonna evolve into someday." The grin turned toothy. "I bet you kick lots of butt with how tough you are huh?"

"Heh heh, yeah. You gotta match up to the best when you're in a job like mine. I only fight when I need to though, there's nothing I hate more than pointless violence. I'm sure you'll turn into big strong Feraligatr someday too if you work hard Devon." Raiden replied as his gaze began to drift away from the Totodile and back to Pyrrha. His arms crossing over his hardy chest. "So, how's life outside of work Pyrrha? You probably don't do the whole dance thing all year? Relm's gotta give you guys some vacation time."

Devon the Totodile

[Valiant Village - Sawk and Throh Dojo]

@Ninian@Shiny Keldeo
The glance and silence the two Riolu gave off was understandable. It was a big decision that the Water-type had just offered them, and thinking it over was a reasonable thing to do. That being said, it still didn't make it any less awkward. Devon simply stood by and waited as the two thought, his brown eyes scanning over the room and his mind mentally wincing whenever a sandbag met it's horrific end.

Finally it seemed they had made their decision. One, that made Devon grin toothily. "Dude, any sort of help's awesome! Thank you guys!"

The offer to give a tour of the town was a welcome one, seeing as how yesterdays went a little less than well. The toothy grin shrunk down to just a smile as the beaten up Totodile spoke. "That sounds great. Me and Celty uh...Tried to go on one yesterday, but then that Scizor guy showed up and everyone started flipping out. Food would be cool too." Gaze panning over to Celty, he waved. "You're coming with right Celty?"

@Ninian@Shiny Keldeo
Reaching over to gently pick up Cyan as Nasir questioned Brent's question, Devon laughed. "I don't think it's weird. I just say don't knock it till you try it man. They're not always all in the same bed as me though, but they're usually outside of their balls when we sleep. I have little beds for all of my Pokémon at both of my houses. Heck at my dad's place, I even built some of them myself with a bit of spare plywood." Looking over at the sleeping Ampharos near his legs, he smiled. "It's just sort of a thing I've done ever since I got my first Pokémon. Shock was a pretty good pillow as a Mareep, but now that's pretty much Nasir's job."

Placing the injured Marill carefully in the middle of the Zoroark's mane, the teen then found a spot in the giant mass of red fluff to plant his own head, which he swiftly did so. His head slightly sunk into the stuff as he reached a hand over to to gently pet the start of the mane near Nasir's head. "Anyways, good night guys. I'll see you all tomorrow."

Letho the Sableye

[Folio's Trunk - Treacherous Roots B3]

The imp actually began to giggle a bit as it seemed that his comment had made the hedgehog angry. That giggle didn't last for long as it was soon replaced with a yowl of pain. Letho melted on the spot into a puddle of shadow and reformed a few feet away from Breeze to hold his foot while rapidly hopping and shouting. "FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFAH! C-C'mon Breeze what'd I say!? I just said you were adorable! I thought girls liked to be complimented! Jeez! You're anything but cuddly!"

The nonsensical complaints continued to rattle through the halls of the tree as the group departed, causing the remaining Roserade to groan and mutter to himself. "Fools...."

[Folio's Trunk - Waypoint]

A little while later...

@Shiny Keldeo@Lucius Cypher
The gang slowly crept out of the pits of the Treacherous Roots, coming upon the same room that they had passed by earlier. A rather tiny boxy room that featured soft mossy floor, a trickle of water that formed a tiny pound near the western wall, a purple Deposit Box, and the best feature; No hostile Pokémon.

A sigh of relief escaped Letho as he wandered into the center of the room and threw himself onto the soft moss and rose his arms up in a cheer. "Alright! We made it! And we're having some pretty great luck too! I think I only seen like, three dudes down there that looked like they wanted to chew on our heads!"

Rolling his head over to grin at the others, his gem eyes then focused on the Shaymin in the room. "So, now that we're not in mortal danger, maybe you can answer my question. Why actually are you a cute little grass ball now? That an evolution you got going on there or...What?"

Devon the Totodile

[Folio Town - Guild Dining Hall]

@Ninian
Lilisette left the Big Jaw Pokémon in the dust as she raced over to throw herself in the seat next to the Gardevoir. Devon snickered a bit as he began to walk across the room to join her. Taking a quick look at the various Pokémon sitting around the giant spread causing him to smile. Wow...I don't think I've ever been to a big dinner like this before.....Just be friendly, socialize. Now that I'm a member of the Guild, I should probably try to get to know some of the others.

Strolling over to sit on a red cushion next to the two Psychics, the Totodile leaned to peer past Lilisette and wave at Pyrrha. "Hi Pyrrha, your guys show was awesome! I bet it takes alot of practice to sync everything up like that huh?"
