13:15 *** DaiRef joined #SinnohSolaceonTown
13:15 Sn0wman LAST TIME...
13:16 Sn0wman The water pushed at his legs, nearly knocking him over but he regained his balance with the cold water washing away his scent. He was able to get out of the river easily, but found that the cold water may effect him a little more than expected. He might be getting a mild case of hypothermia, but that remained to be seen...
13:18 DaiRef He smirked and passed through the small stream before reaching the other side. He was sure the police wasn't after him anymore, so he went on his way towards the southern outskirts of Solaceon Town. "Hmhmhm. Now, I have business to attend to."
13:20 Sn0wRef The melodious voices of the citizens of Solaceon Town traveled surprisingly far, signalling the current liveliness of the townspeople. A couple pidgey chirped happily at each other in the treetops before one suddenly flew off at the sight of the escaped prisoner.
13:22 DaiRef He smirked and walked through the shrouds quietly, making his way to head towards the southern route. He need not make much noise or attention, but once he got out of the area, he assumed the police were lazy enough to forget about him. "Hmph, I suppose we should start building our team, hm?" He smirked looking into sableye's pokeball, as it gave a crooked
13:22 DaiRef smile at him.
13:29 Sn0wRef The trees around him started to get thicker as he neared the nearby route. The previously tense air got calmer all around as the events of his escape got farther away. A deerling snuffed around the bright grass as it looked for a suitable patch to gnaw on.
13:30 *** DaiRef joined #SinnohRoute209
13:33 Sn0wRef The route was calm and empty, even during such nice weather. The air smelled fresh and the skies were dotted with thin clouds here and there, showing no promises of storms. A group of starly soared through the air before landing at a pond farther down the route to rest. A pair of gulpin stood and glubbed at each other as they swayed contently.
13:35 DaiRef Mr. C continued to walk through the route, hoping to find himself placed in the next city soon. He looked about his surroundings and found not much interest in the pokemon nearby. However, his pokemon might need the extra practice, but he avoided conflict due to his spiritomb being knocked out.
13:39 Sn0wRef As he walked away from the cliffs that he had just been near, a lively budew scuttled across his path. It squeaked its name before it settled on the other side of the dirt road and waited for something. In the distance, Mr. C could see a crumbled tower near one of the lakes. A taller and less-desolate looking tower stood hauntingly somewhere behind him.
13:40 DaiRef He looked at the tower and smirked, "Hmmm... I wonder what's up there...?" He continued along the path, attempting to quicken his pace towards the next location.
13:43 Sn0wRef A breeze blew through as he passed over the short bridges crossing over the ponds and lakes all around the southern part of Route 209.
13:43 *** DaiRef joined #SinnohHearthomeCity
13:48 Sn0wRef Hearthome City was a bustling and in pristine condition. As it was the middle of this hot day, many groups of people walked past Mr. C. A small family walked slowly through the crowd, pointing at everything and making a comedic joke about whatever they motioned at. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary on this lively day.
13:50 DaiRef "Hmhmhm... this is...my kind of place." He smirked. "So peaceful, so friendly....so vulnerable." He stated as his pale face turned into a smile similar to sableye's. He walked around to find the nearest pokemon to heal.
13:52 Sn0wRef A chatot landed on top of a small bench on the side of the path that he took. The Hearthome Pokemon Center stood tall and proud, looking as if nothing could knock it down in the city's Golden Age.
13:52 *** DaiRef joined #SinnohHearthomeCenter
13:54 Sn0wRef Inside the center, there were quite a few young trainers lounging around on the couches that sat on both sides of the bright center. The nurse standing behind the counter was currently turned around, tending to another trainer's pokemon on one of the machines.
13:57 DaiRef Vance walked towards the counter and placed his two pokemon there and he smirked at the nurse. "Can you heal these please?" He asked in a calm manner.
14:00 Sn0wRef "Hold on a moment, please!" the nurse said chirpily, finishing up healing the first trainer's pokemon before she turned around and gave them back. She sidestepped over to stand in front of Mr. C and took his pokemon to heal. As he waited, one of the many televisions was set on a news channel. It looked like a prison escape report was coming up soon.
14:00 Sn0wRef "Here you go!" the nurse said, turning around and handing his pokemon back to him. "Have a good day."
14:07 DaiRef The man smiled and looked at the report in honor. "Hmhmhm..." He quietly walked towards the exit of the pokemon center.
14:08 *** DaiRef joined #SinnohHearthomeCity
14:11 Sn0wRef Nothing much seemed to have changed in the city in the couple of minutes that he was gone. A small Summer Festival seemed to have been built in the center of the city to celebrate the new season and all its fortune that it would bring. A small group of people were seen around the festival area, setting up more attractions.
14:12 DaiRef Vance smirked and looked about the people in the festival and headed towards it. He was a little more curious as to what was going on, and decided to look at the nearby vendors and attractions.
14:13 DaiRef He needed to allow for people to join his cause, and this festival was a great place to do it.
14:20 Sn0wRef It seemed that a majority of the 'attractions' were areas that held trivial activities, such as bobbing for apples or having a random drawing contest. A vendor set up his stand nearby to accept tickets won from the activities and give prizes in return. One young woman stood off to the side of an art auction, subconsciously biting her thumbnail.
14:26 DaiRef Vance looked at anyone who looked potentially rough or possibly an ex-member of any teams, anyone who looked suspicious basically. None of the activities seemed to catch his interest.
14:31 Sn0wRef It didn't seem that anyone rather evil-looking was hanging around the festival. Maybe it was because everyone was so bright and lively? That, or the fact that a couple of police officers were patrolling the outer edges of the event area. An azurill and a ralts chased each other around, ducking in between legs.
14:32 DaiRef Vance didn't find anything interested and decided to head towards the western portion of the town to see if there was a new route leaning on the other side of the city. There wasn't much going on here, so he decided to rethink his plan.
14:36 Sn0wRef There was a small building that allowed the transition between the city and the next route. As he walked away, the sounds of the festival seemed to stick in volume and never quieted. The streets seemed almost empty, now that a majority of the people were enjoying the festival.
14:36 DaiRef Vance continued to walk and exited the location as he walked through the small building.
14:40 *** DaiRef joined #SinnohRoute208
14:45 Sn0wRef Route 208 seemed more populated than Route 209. While on his quest to travel backwards through the routes, Vance could see a couple trainers sitting down in a circle and talking to each other lazily as they tried to enjoy the sun. Deerling hopped around the grassy area. Just ahead, one could see the many cliffs that hung over the roaring rivers below.
14:47 DaiRef Vance decided to walk towards the trainers, seeing as this was a chance to play one of his mind games. "Hello...young trainers." He stated calmly, a smile was on his face as he waved at them.
14:50 Sn0wRef
fc00.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/135/1/3/pokemon_trainer_aj_by_xlockshockandbarrelx-d65dbcg.png : "Umm, hello." one of the female trainers of the group said, stopping the chatter almost immediately.
14:51 DaiRef He smiled and looked at the young girl and smiled. "I have a question to ask you. Are you training against the league? "
14:53 Sn0wRef
th03.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/f/2010/281/6/7/pokemon_trainer_neida_by_atlas_kei-d30bb98.jpg : "YEAH!" Another girl had jumped up after screaming, but was pulled back down by one of the other trainers.
14:54 Sn0wRef
fc00.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2010/338/2/5/pokemon_trainer_karrik_by_coyote12-d34892i.png : "No. We're not, we're just training for fun," the boy, who had just pulled the rather excited girl down, said with a somewhat irritated tone.
14:56 DaiRef He looked at the young trainers and bowed gently. "Well, what if I told you... that the pokemon league is a waste of time? If you work for me, you'll be stronger than any of the champions by far." He stated, trying to reel at least one of the trainers into his plan.
14:58 Sn0wRef The blonde girl looked up with a look of disgust. "Who would want to work with /you/ of all people?" she said with poison dripping from each of her words. She didn't seem the friendly type at all.
14:59 Sn0wRef "We can be STRONGER?" the excited brunette jumped back up, a look of pure glee printed on her face. This time, the silver-haired boy didn't pull her right back down.
15:01 DaiRef "Yes... I can teach you how to be stronger trainers than the Pokemon League could ever imagine, but you just have to travel with me and I can teach you the best areas to train. May I see your teams?" He asked them curiously.
15:06 Sn0wRef The blonde girl sighed and rolled her eyes, sending out her Bellsprout. She looked rather proud of it, in fact.
15:07 Sn0wRef The excited brunette sent out her Pansear, squealing loudly. "My daddy got him for me!" she gushed. "I was actually thinking of catching one of those Deerling that I keep seeing, they're SOOOO CUTE!"
15:09 Sn0wRef The silver-haired boy seemed rather reluctant, but ended up sending out his pokemon anyway. He had a zorua and a gliscor, which he studied for a few moments before looking back up to Vance.
15:10 DaiRef "Let me show you...mine." He sent out his pokemon. First spiritomb, then sableye. *send* *spiritomb* *send* *sableye* He smirked and said, "These pokemon were rare pokemon that took me a moment to find them. But they required much effort to obtain. I can show you areas where rare pokemon may be found."
15:13 Sn0wRef The brunette looked at the sudden pokemon in wonder, letting out a sound of awe. The blonde girl didn't seem to care at all, while the silver-haired boy hummed and studied the pokemon.
15:13 Sn0wRef "No thanks, old man!" the blonde said, giving a wave with her rather dainty-looking hand.
15:14 DaiRef He nodded and looked at them, "Hmph, well what about you two? Do you seem interested? I mean, do you really think the Pokemon League is that important? If you travel with me we can make our own league? Doesn't that sounds a lot more fun?" He asked curiously.
15:16 Sn0wRef The brunette gasps and started hopping up and down. "Really?! Can I get the cutest pokemon?" she said, seeming in it to join.
15:16 Sn0wRef "Sure," the silver-haired boy said. He looked at the brunette with a 'wtf?' look before turning his attention back to the man.
15:18 DaiRef "Perfect... now, do you both have X-Transcievers?" He asked curiously. "Let's add each other, just in case we split up." He stated, pulling his out. "I will be going to Mt. Coronet to do some training, would you like to join me?" He smiled innocently, hiding his evil.
15:20 Sn0wRef The bubbly one looked down in disappointment, shaking her head with a sniffle. The silver-haired one took his own X-Transciever out, mumbling to himself how he doesn't even believe why he has the thing.
15:20 DaiRef He smiled and asked curiously, "What are your names?" He asked them.
15:21 Sn0wRef "James, and this is Yekaterina," he said, introducing himself and the bubbly girl.
15:23 DaiRef "Nice to meet you...call me Mr. Clover." He stated with a smirk on his face. "Shall we get going?" He asked curiously. He eyed the blonde haired girl, not sure what was going on in her mind.
15:24 DaiRef
