Just as humans grow and change with time, interests change as well. I wish I had the urge to roleplay like I used to...

The only reason I haven't posted yet is because I haven't really been feeling well these days. Might get checked up by a doctor, dunno yet :/ Sorry for the delay on the intro.
Nate

"Alright, then!" Prof. Elm started. "Please, chose your Pokemon carefully. These Pokemon are all friendly, and shouldn't be dangerous. This is a huge step forward for all of you! Nowadays, not many trainers get their licenses or even get to go traveling these days. But enough about that, I'm sure you don't want to hear about that. You've all probably heard about that to last you a lifetime. Alright, so, who wants to choose first?"

Looking around the inner lab, one could only see various different machinery the Professor used to take important measurements and other statistics. Nate was familiar with most of the technology present at the lab from his previous experiences when visiting his mother's workplace, back when they lived at Hoenn. That was, in fact, the spark that ignited his interest in technology. Nate patiently waited in line as, one by one, his fellow soon-to-be trainers picked their Pokemon. He grabbed his Pokegear from his pocket and checked to see if there any messages that needed to be answered. "Mom... Of course, I should have expected a flood of messages from you. I'm surprised I didn't notice it 'till now," Nigel thought with a smile on his face. His mom, albeit assuring him that she wouldn't bother him too much while he was out traveling, ended up breaking under the weight of anxiety and had sent him some 20 something messages. Nate, though, didn't mind it at all, because he knew that she cared about him. He messaged her back, telling her he was fine and about to pick his first Pokemon.

Amongst mom's many messages, Nate singled out one that was from a different sender. "Ley... Like mother like daughter, you're such a worrywart." Nate messaged her as well, telling her to not worry about him and instead, focus on finishing he studies. While closing his Pokegear and putting it back inside his pocket, Nate noticed that there was no line before him. Instead, there was a table with 9 pokeballs, placed one next to the other, forming a neat line across the table. Nate looked around and noticed that three people had already picked their starters. That short, one-legged, white-haired girl was talking to the redhead from before, one of the purpleheads, Abigail, was talking to her Nidoran and the other purplehead, Yuu, had just released his Eevee for the first time and was walking around the lab, his Eevee following close behind him.

Nate walked forward whilst taking a big breath in before exhaling. "Well, it's time for the big decision!" he said out loud for no apparent reason. He took a minute to skim over the name tags placed in front of each pokeball. "Hmm, Totodile's definitely the choice here. Swinub's a good Pokemon as well, as far as I know, but before I walked inside this building, I was set on picking a water type as my starter and I'm not about change that at the last minute. Totodile it is," Nate thought and reached for the pokeball, grabbing it and releasing the little fellow that was inside.

"dile?!" Totodile exclaimed, squinting its eyes at the sudden surge of light. It took some time for it to adjust to the artificial lighting of the Lab, time which Nate had plenty of. He waited as the little fellow looked everywhere around it, taking in the strange environment. Then, it's eyes locked on Nate and at that moment, Nate knew he was in for a trip. "DILE!" the little pokemon lunged at Nate and started biting him everywhere. It bit his arms, his legs, and even his head. At first, Nate was shocked but he soon realized that the bites didn't hurt at all. Totodile was just playing. Nate relaxed a bit, letting the small croc do its thing for a while before picking it up and setting it in front of him. "How's it going man? Guess what? I'll be your trainer from now on. My name's Nate!" he told Totodile, who looked at him quizzically. "And from now on, your name shall be...Seb! What do you think?"

Totodile looked Nate in the eyes and for a moment, it felt like it was searching for something. Soon after though, both of them burst into laughter, filling the lab with happy vibes. After settling down, Nate stood up and walked over to the table where the trainer licenses were at. He took a minute to find his between all the others, and at that time, Yuu started talking about how there were no Pokedexes handed out. At the mention of Pokedexes, Nate instantly tensed up. In reality, it was all fun and games but even at that time, there were people out there getting hurt and even killed by feral Pokemon, just like his dad. He turned towards Prof. Elm, "I'm of the same mind. I was told that, along with our starter pokemon, we would also be handed our own Pokedexes. I find it really strange that there's not even a single pokedex that I can see inside this room. Why's that, Prof. Elm?" he asked him with a serious look, a look completely different from the one Nate had merely minutes ago.

May this RP rest in peace.
I've been waiting for the timeskip as well :/
Nate

It took some while before someone spoke back to Nate, enough time for him to note all the faces inside the Lab. The first two he noticed were the two purpleheads, a boy and a girl, standing in the middle of the room arguing about something. It's not that they tried to hide it as well, they were pretty loud, mostly the girl though. He generally didn't bother watching other people argue, his philosophy being pretty simple; don't butt into other people's business if it doesn't affect you in any way. These two, however, were quite entertaining to say the least.

The next person Nate took note of was a white haired girl, several inches shorter than him. Oh and she was missing a leg. "What...how..." Nate was curious to hear how she had ended up in that kind of situation but he doubted she would tell him since they were practically strangers, adding extra points into the awkward factor. He listened as she tried to stop the two others from going all-out at each other but to no avail, they completely ignored her. "Pff, get on my level..." he chuckled at the irony before turning his attention to one of the purpleheads who was talking to him.

"Er, I don't think this is the best place to hang up a towel due to how wet it looks and with the specific types of equipment around... hey, maybe you could leave it outside to dry instead of in here! Not like anyone is going to steal a towel or anything, right?" "Huh... That works. Why didn't I think of that? You know, I'll do just that. Thanks!" Nate told the guy and turned around to try and find a place to hang his towel when a boy came out of nowhere, bumped into and would have almost knocked him over if not for Nate managing to somehow keep his balance in check. "Dude!" Nate said and looked straight in front of him, only to see empty space. He lowered his gaze some and saw the guy, "Hey, watch where you're going, buddy. If it was anyone else, you might have been in for an earfull," Nate told him while giving him a friendly pat on the back.

Following that, Nate took a few steps outside the Lab and started looking around for a place to hang his towel. "That branch there can do the trick," he thought and reached for the branch, throwing the towel over it to hang and dry. "Excuse me. This wouldn't happen to be Professor Elm’s laboratory, would it?" Nate heard the girl's voice and, feeling her tap on his shoulder, turned around to answer he question. "Yeah, this is Elm's Lab. You actually came right on time as they are about to give out the Pokemon to everyone," Nate told her with a smile on his face. "Better get back in there, we don't wanna be last in line!" he added and walked back inside the Lab. He walked past the boy at the door, the purplehead couple, that had actually become a trio when a red-haired girl joined in on their arguing, and all the others that were still in the waiting room and entered the room where Elm would be giving out the Pokemon. He got in line and waited for the procedures to start.

"I sure hope I get a water-type!" Nate thought, excited at the prospect of his own Pokemon, since all the Pokemon he had ever interacted with were owned by his dad or mom.
Vec's Characterinos


@Vec Sure. Just follow the history here and you'll be fine.


Well, good to have that as a reserve but I'll be looking at new things too so I don't find it unlikely that I change my mind :/
@Lmpkio OK, I think I'll bring back Nigel since I really didn't get a chance to reveal his background and history at the previous RP, if that is ok with you.
@Vec Vec you are indeed lucky! After an initial conflict amongst the other GMs, you've managed to get the very last spot in here!

I now officially confirm for further recruitments to be closed, unless another player leaves, leaving a free spot open.


initial conflict? why does that sound so bad in my ears? :/
Well, thanks! I will start on my cs as soon as possible.
80 years have passed, and we still have yet to do another 80 years. So, we've finished the first timeskip, and are in a little in between moment before the second timeskip.


K. I will read the posts and see what I can react to as well as writing up what Ull has been doing all the time they - Escre and Co - were flying around in space, fixing planets.
