Entering the PokéMart, Evelyn was greeted by a clean floor, well-stocked shelves and some what was most likely copyright-free elevator music. Basically, your every PokeMart in any town or city that had one. Which was nice. She could appreciate the consistency in such things. After all, it was way better than going to some outdoor flea market and trying to buy anything from shady rando's who claimed they were selling top-notch medicine made from all organic materials. Was anyone actually dumb enough to believe that sort of crap? No, if you wanted real quality goods, you came to a real quality store.

Like this one.

As the girl unconsciously hummed along with the tune and walked around with her colorful shopping basket, her steps paused as she saw a big, bright poster on one of the walls.

"Hm? A free potion with your first purchase? Well, how can I refuse something like that?" An amused smile crept across her face, though she probably wasn't aware of it herself.

Still, before thinking about the prospect of freebies, there was the issue of what she was actually going to buy. Being out on the road, chances are that the girl might run into a situation where a Pokemon Center was just too far away to reach in a hurry. Or, she could end up somewhere and not know the way, but be in an emergency and need to attend to any har m or injuries her pokemon may have sustained right there and then. However! Her budget was also limited, and spending money on things that wouldn't necessarily be strictly needed was a good way to end up with no travelling funds right quick. Thus, she had to plan... Meticulously... Carefully...

Alright... We'll be outdoors, in the wilderness. We'll likely run into things that can poison or paralyze, and carrying some exra potions with me would be a good idea, just in case... Burn and ICe heals... Hm... I don't think either of those things'll be too common around these parts, and an Awakening is just throwing money away. A rope...? Oh, it's one of those that you tie outside a cave or whatever to guide you back out... Do I really plan to go into a dark, dank cave with who-knows-what inside? ... Then again, you never know what the weather will be like, or what you'll run into out there... It... Could be a nice safety measure, just in case...

As she pondered her options, the blonde girl did grab some things though. Walking through the aisles, she grabbed three of one sort and three others of something else. Then two of a third choice, then paused. Shaking her head, she steeled her gaze and wandered over to the cash register, plopping the basket down and taking out her intended purchases one by one for the clerk to ring up.

All in all, Evelyn bought:
- 3x Antidotes (-300p)
- 3x Paralyze Heals (-600p)
- 2x Potions (-600p)

Total Payment: -1500p

Great! Now she had something for each of her 'mons if something happened. But, before she left the register, she rummaged around in her bag for a bit, before producing her Trainer ID and showed it to the employee.

"As you can see, I'm a fresh-faced, burgeoning trainer just starting out. Soooo... I get a free potion with my purchase, yes~?"

The staff member grabbed the card, gave it a look-over and then handed it back. Nodding and stating with a robotic, unenthused voice that that was indeed the case, they reached underneath the counter and produced a free, no-cost, totally no strings attached potion! Plucking the little bottle up with a ginger nab, Evelyn thanked the shopkeep, stuffed the items she'd just bought into her little bag, and then proceeded to exit the PokéMart, content and pleased with her little shopping-spree.

After all, she was now finally ready to actually get started! Started on her very own journey.

She hadn't spent lon here in Grand Glory City, but for the most part it had been a pleasant experience. It wasn't quite Evertide, but it was modern and enjoyable enough. Walking the bustling, busy streets, the young trainer picked up her Rotom phone and gave it a look-through. Ah, yes, there was a map-App, good. So, she had two options? Well... Going north was not really an option, not this time of year and not with what she was wearing. Winter probably still had a bit of a hold on that part of the region and she didn't want to risk anything.

So, south along Route 4 it was!

"Alright you guys, we're off."

She said... To her pokemon partners. Who were all snug inside their respective pokeballs for now.

Evelyn is leaving Grand Glory City and beginning her journey down Route 4.

Pokemon Singularity

Pokemon Singularity

I am scrub and not know Pokemoves. :(
*Goes to corner of shame*

And yeah, I mean, if Mr. Ketchum can create BS like the "Counter-Shield", I don't see why we couldn't. :P

Pokemon Singularity

Thiings like Swift and Thunder Shock that can't miss are probably the rare exceptions, I wager. Unless your 'mon knows something like... Iunno... Protect or something, yeah?

Pokemon Singularity

Evelyn had watched her little champ put up a great fight against the new fluffy adversary. Despite being at a disadvantage, as fire had this funny little tendency to severely harm bugs, her Joltik didn't look phased in the slightest!

Or, well... He hadn't... Until he got singed with a face-full-of-fiery embers... At which point the spazzy little electro-spider was quite verbal about his discontented and dire situation, not to mention the flailing of many legs and running around in a circle, trying to get the air to somehow soothe the searing pain of having just been lightly toasted.

Letting out a gasp, Evelynh ad, more on reflex than any sort of elaborate, strategic cunning or planning, told Joltik to use its Double-Team, which seemed to have saved the little guy from getting even crispier. ANd in the end, Growlithe was worn down enough for the blonde to toss her ball with a graceful flourish, and once again acquire a brand new member for her growing team!

She smiled happily when the pokeball stopped shaking, and let out a relieved sigh.

Then quickly power-walked over to Joltik and swept the little trooper up in her arms.

"You were wonderful, Joltik! You're the best."

The little bug chittered happily, but not with his usual energy and gusto. it seemed the two back-to-back fights had worn the little guy out, not to mention him being plenty hurt form this last scuffle. Evelyn looked him over as she nestled the little creature in her arms, making sure there were no lingering issues like a Burn. But it seemed, for now, all this little fellow would need was some good old fashioned TLC from a reputable PokeCenter.

But, first thing's first! She walked over, after putting Joltik back down, and plucked the freshly used pokeball off the gorund. Then, with a spinning flourish...

"Alright, Growlithe, come on out! You too, Sentret!"

... She threw two pokeballs at once, wht a move! The familiar sound and light of the technological spheres resounded, and soon the two fuzzy critters were sitting there on the grass, right infront of the blonde and her spider.

"Sentret~!"

The Growlithe barked happily, wagging its tail in a sluggish, rhythmic way. At the sound of the new pokemon's voice, Sentret turned around, and leapt onto its own tail in surprise - not having realized there was a newcomer already. This made Joltik... Laugh...? It ... It was kinda hard to tell... But it was letting out some rather quirky chittering. At the sight of the happy bug, Growlithe rose form its sitting state, plotted over and gave the little electro-rascal a big, sloppy, wet dog-lick. Which caused the little one to flip over on its back and enter a state of panic yet again, as it flailed wildly with its small legs in the air.

Now it was Sentret's turn to laugh. Which prompted Growlithe to wander up next to the brown fuzzball and start sniffing it's tail. The entire situation ws very endearing and sweet. Well, at least until Growlithe decided to push Sentret over and start fervently licking its face. Which resulted in Sentret flailing its tiny arms and legs in a panic and abject humiliation.

Evelyn covered her mouth and stifled a laugh.

"Look at you guys, best friends already."

A happy bark from Growlithe.
... Disgruntled, exasperated chtters from Joltik.
"... Sen.. Tret..." That... Sounded unconvincing...

[color=gold]"Right, well. We need to get all of you patched up, okay? So c'mon, let's go to the Pokemon Center and ge-WAHGAHAPT!?"

Evelyn, however, was too overconfident in having laughed at two of her pokemons misfortune, and it seemed Karma had a bone to pick with her for that. For in the next moment, before she could finish her sentence, a certain happy pooch had flung itself at its new master, tackling her to the ground and was now proceeding to dog-smooch the ever-living crap out of her. Much to the joy and snickering of Joltik and Sentret.

"Uwaagh...! Growlithe, no! Bad! Very bwaahh-stop!" Her protests were interspersed with laughing from the tickling sensation, but also with a voice that sounded thoroughly annoyed. After all... Dog-breath... Not exactly Evelyn's ode de parfum. Eventually, Growlithen relented and climbed of his trainer, happily sitting next to her and letting out a content and happy bark, as if he'd done nothing what-so-ever.

"... Alright, that's enough out of you three... C'mon, back you go."

Rising, with a face-full-of-slobber, Eve recalled her pokemon one after the other, back into their respective balls. Then, reaching into he rpocket and withdrawing an honestly way-too-fancily embroided handkerchief, she wiped off her face. Yuck. Gross.

Good thing that pupper was a cutie, otherwise the blonde might've considered sending him over to Kapoc's lab asap.

But with the shennanigans in the park over and done with, and with nothing else she really cared about left to do, the stylish gal began her trek out of the nice, pleasant park, and back into the crowded streets of Grand Glory City. A dingle-lingle-ling on her rotom phone caught her ear, and she looked it over, realizing she'd received yet another sum of money for catching her newest bud. But... Wait... That was 500p more than she'd gotten for catching Sentret, right? ... Wow, she really had found a rare pokemon!

The elation was almost enough to make her forget about being slobbered on. Almost.

Regardless, the young teen used her phone, while she had it out, to look up a map of GGC, and managed to navigate her way on over the local Pokemon Center. There, she handed off her three pokemon to the Nurse, allowing them to be tended to be a paid professional. Meanwhile, Evelyn herself made use of the facility by visiting the restroom, and giving herself a proper wash of the face. Followed by an extensive rework and repplication of her make-up... It actually took longer for Evelyn to get done than it took for her pokemon to get treated...

But putting that aside! Now with her three musketeers all patched up, it was finally time!

Time to...!

... Go shopping.

What? You thought this girl was just gonna go racing out of the city and look for adventures and mayhem without getting supplies first? Thus, using her phone again, Eve looked up where the local PokeMart was located, and headed towards there.

En route, she noticed a few more pokemon roaming the streets and alleys that she hadn't originally seen. Like the mischievous purple-sorta cats... They were cute... But... There was just this nagging feeling in the back of the girl's head that, if she tried to approach them, they'd probably start Fury Swiping at her... Besides, she'd already gotten two new pokemon already. Getting any additional ones would make training a chore later on. So for now, she left the kitties alone...

... I'll be back though, don't you worry...

Arrriving at the outside of the store, it was... Well, a store. The typical thing you'd expect a PokeMart to look like. Right, the time was now! Approaching the automatic doors, they opened, and a she stepped in, an electronic bell announced the arrival of this new customer.... Now, time to look at what was on offer, and decide on what to buy.

Evelyn is inspecting and browsing the PokeMart's selection of items.
