After being reprimanded by an invisible, disembodied voice about her pronounciation of StarBURR Village, Eve eventually got the info she was looking for and politely thanked the kind, random citizen of the local area.
The gondola ride up the trees were... Interesting... While Evelyn didn't have an issue with heights or high places in general, the fact that this was just some rickety little lift, which began to sway in winds and the wires holding up making that uncomfortable, metallic tension-noise whenever that occurred, was a bit unnerving and had the girl gripping tightly onto one of the holding rails of the interior. Thankfully, she arrived at the top unscathed and without incident.
After this, it was straight off to her destination, not even bothering to take in the sights or sounds of the Starscraper level. There was somehting that needed doing and Eve was dtermined to get that done!
The diner itself was... Charming, in a sense. It was a half-way point between soimething fancy and a regularold street-bistro... Somewhat reminded her of the diners you could find back home, although much less decorated or intricate. Still, she managed to get a hold of the man she was looking for, a gentleman who looked dangerously close to red flag stereotyping, and successfully made her transaction.
Evelyn sold 1x Big Mushroom.
Evelyn sold 3x Tiny Mushrooms
Evelyn sold 3x Tiny Mushrooms
Evelyn received 6,500 Pokedollars!
After having finished ehr business and thanked the Head Chef for his business, the young trainer departed the eatery without further fuss or noise, not wanting to disturb any customers who were there to enjoy a meal. After all, there were few things as uncouth as causing a ruckus and ruining someone else's meal.
Stepping back out into the Skyscraper level of StarBURR, Even stretched hea arms up and into the air, slightly arching backwards and letting out a contented 'Mmmmmmmh'-noise. Then she opened her eyes again. And for, perhaps the first time, she actually paid attention to the surroundings and the view that lay before her. The blonde girl stood quiet and with a blank expression, not sure how to describe or react to what she saw. A moment or two passed, before her mouth finally let something out.
"Wow... That's... This is really something."
It wasn't flashy like back home. it was stylish or modern like she prefered. It wasn't even somewhere she could ever consider living or staying for long. And yet... It had such a magical, dream-like aesthetic and vibe. The large trees, the buildings nestled between branches, the solar panel farms, the walkways, and of course, the many, many people who were hustling and bustling about their daily lives. Hustle and bustle, atop giant trees, where a functioning, livable settlement had been constructed. It was... Surreal and impressive, at least to the blonde teen.
"I... Should take some pictures."
And that is exactly what she did. Walking away froom the eatery a bit, it was the first place she had ehr Rotom Phone snap a pic off. Next was the view out over the rest of Starbor and eastern Evig. Next she wandered about and took a couple of snaps of both the Contest Hall as well as the Gym, though she didn't enter either of these locales. She also photo-snapped the gondolas as they moved up and down. Yes, good. This would be an excellent addition to her biography about her amazing rise to stardom! After all, pictures always added a bit of flare to the reading experience, right?
Next on blondie's agenda was finally noticing the pokemon that were up here. Primarily, two types of birds, and some kinda nut-pokemon. While the latter didn't interest her in the slightest, the two avian ctypes did. She knew that having a creature that could look for things from above, as well as deal with murderous scthe-bugs - no, she wasn't traumatized at all, you shut up! - would be really handy, and since she'd passed up the chance to get a birdie back in Grand Glory City, now seemed like a perfect opportunity to rectify that.
Bzzzzzzzzzzoooort~!
A small yellow bug was released, chittering in bewilderment as he now looked around at the bizarre location in which he found his tiny self. Then, Joltik turned to look at his trainer, chittered happily, and came skittering over, nuzzling up against her leg.
"Hey there, Joltik." She squatted down and gave the little scamp a few scratches on the head, much to his delight. ""Think you can help me catch one of each of these birds?" She asked, smiling at her little starter, who reared up on two of his hind-most little legs, and tried to imitate Sentret's saluting... But... It didn't uh... it didn't look quite right. But at least he tried!
Thus, Joltik was ordered to engage with one of each of the flying types, and Eve would try a quick catch of both a Starly and a Pikipek. Regardless of the results, she would only try once for each one.
Following that, she also got the bright idea to let her Joltik keep training, and would continue to have the little electro-tick shoot his zappy zap-webs at the birds in order to gain some much needed experience. Once she felt the little guy was starting to get tired, it was time to swap in Sentret.
Her fuzzy rabbit-rat-thing wasn't sent to pick a fight with the birds though. Instead, Sentret was sent to train against the nut-lookin' Seedots. After all, she didn't want her Sentret to try jumping around and tryiing to air-tackle the birds, only to fall off and down into the levels below... She relaly didn't need a pancaked pokemon just because the terrain was unfavorable.
Growlithe was not let out though. Again, Evelyn had enough common sense to not bring out something that could breathe fire and have it use said fire in the middle of a place that was almost entirely made out of flammable wood. So for now, the pooch would have to sit this training session out.
Joltik is attempting to weaken both a Starly and Pikipek for a quick-catch. Then, he is sent to train against more Starly and Pikipek. Sentret is called out once Joltik gets tired and will train against - primaily - Seedots.
