The Long Due Start

[ford]

Ford jumped off his bicycle, Gently placeing it against the side of the lab.

He walked over to the door looking around the green country side of the jenta reigion. It wasn't like this in Ford's hometown of cerulean city. He took a moment to think of home, The friends he'd left behind,The family he'd miss but then he took a minute to think of the upcoming challanges he'd face.

Ford walked towards the lab with a new spring in his step. He poked his head around the door.
"errr..Professor?"

[MorriganFearn]

Professor Cherry looked up from a cage where two ekans were snoozing. He was red in the face, and had been attempting to argue with his "lab assistants" but as usual was getting no where.

"Hello, hello, welcome to Jenta. Are you here for a starter package?" he wanted to know.

[ford]

Ford stands there with his mouth hanging open in ore.
Suddenly snapping to his sences he notces the Professor.
"Oh Err..Yes please sir...Er Doc."
It was quite obvious that Ford was nervous about the start of his adventure.

"Well....I've being doing a little research. Pokemon wise i wish to become the ultimate water trainer and so i'd like a Piplup."

Ford looks up and smiles at the Professor "Please.."

[Ninetales]

Professor Cherry smiled and walked over to a computer surrounded my mountains of papers. "Of course you can have a Piplup... just let me enter the data into the computer..." He began to type away at the keyboard while leaning over the chair that was pushed in before looking up. "What Pokedex color do you want? At the moment we have..."


Professor Cherry then blinked and laughed. "Sorry, I am getting ahead of myself... first off, Do you know of the Jenta three Pokemon law? We have three types... but here, this Pamphlet will tell you better then I can." He hands over the mentioned Pamphlet.

"Now... What pokedex color do you want? at the moment we have... Red, pink, orange, yellow, green, light blue, dark blue, purple, brown, white, grey, or black to chose from."

[ford]

Ford smiled at the Professor. "Yes, I've studied for months into this sort of thing. How can i expect to be the ultimate water pokemon trainer otherwise?" Ford Laughed slightly.

"Oh and a White Pokedex Please"

[Ninetales]

Professor Cherry Smiled cheerfully, "I see, that is good to see other's study before coming out here... ah, a white Pokedex.... I will be right back with your things." With that the Professor left the room to gather up the needed supplies.

[ford]

"Sure, il wait"

Ford couldn't help but smile as the start of his journey became ever closer.So many thoughts flashed through his mind it was hard to concentrate on them all until he settled on a strong thought...The Thought of him standing tall as the greatest water Gym Leader of all time.

He smiled as he came back down to reality.

[MorriganFearn]

Proffessor Cherry nodded pleasantly, moving over to the computer that was up against the wall. After shoving Haru from his coiled heap on top of the monitor, he began to type out the data he had (Ford's name, his starter choice, and pokedex color). Pressing enter, he turned to pull a pokedex out of the box, and placed it on a table in the middle of the room. Turning back he noted the starter package.

"Hmm, you got a fighting-water package," he told Ford. "One moment, let me go get it."

The professor headed for an open doorway nearly hidden by the pile of papers staked on either side of the doorway. A few moments later he was back with an old plastic bag. He shuffled over to the table, and set the bag down with a clunk, before looking back up at Ford.

"Here you go," the professor reached into the bag, and brought out two more pokeballs. Unlike the first pokeball, which was only etched with a water drop on top, they had more complicated symbols. The first one brought out of the bag had a stylized fist with a crescent etched above it, like a moon with the top obscured by shadow. "This is your group two starter, a croagunk. And your group three starter is a slowpoke," this pokeball had the same water drop as Ford's piplup's pokeball, but the all-seeing eye surmounted this etched piece of rain.

"I also have a berry pouch for you," a tan leather bag was produced, "5000 pyen, and 5 pokeballs," Professor Cherry told him, placing the items on the table, a little apart from the starters.

"Now, you can go on several different roads when you leave the lab," Professor Cherry told Ford, as he moved away from the table, and headed for a bulletin board. "Do you want my advice?"

Copy and paste this information in your profile:

Group 1:
Piplup
Name: ? ? ?
Type: Water
Level: 5
Gender: Female
Moves: Pound, Growl
Special Ability: Torrent - Raises the effectiveness of water moves if your piplup is in a pinch
Personality: She's ready to take on the world with her hard hitting pound. If Ford isn't ready to do his best she might be a bit to handle, just because she's so enthusiastic, and doesn't know the meaning of backing down.

Group 2
Croagunk
Name: ? ? ?
Type: Fighting/Dark
Level: 25
Gender: Male
Moves: Faint Attack, Taunt, Poison Sting, Mud Slap
Special Ability: Dry skin - If Sunny Day is in effect he takes a little damage every turn, if Rain dance is in effect he regains HP.
Personality: He's a little confused how he ended up on a team run by someone who wants to master water pokemon, but he's not the complaining type. Hes also a little worried by the fact that he seems to be the most "normal" pokemon on Ford's team. However, life is going to work out for the best. He's certain of this because he is now a trainer's pokemon, and that means a lot of fighting.

Group 3
Slowpoke
Name: ? ? ?
Type: Water/Psychic
Gender: Male
Level: 45
Moves: Zen Headbutt, Slack Off, Curse, Water Pulse
Special Ability: Oblivious - Negates attraction used against this pokemon
Personality: He loves to fish. There is nothing better in his mind than sitting back, and fishing, while contemplating the greater matters of life. Nothing better. Everyone should do it. He doesn't understand why Ford's piplup insists on attacking so aggressively when she could be fishing.
