Ayah walked up to the lab with a wide smile on her face. She was extremely excited about what to come and she was super energized this morning. She saw the building in the distance and she clenched her eyes shut and stopped for a moment bringing fists up to her chest. She shook her head in excitement and spoke to herself as well.
"Oh! I'm so so so so sooo excited. This is gonna be great!! Aaah!" She said loudly finally standing up and taking a deep breath trying to calm herself. Her mother had told her to be carefull of her hyperness around the professor or she might end up with a low end pokemon just because he doesn't like her.
"Right, gotta make a good impression on im'. So let's go!!" She said as she reached the lab. She walked up to the door and dusted off the front of her jacket taking another deep breath. She composed herself and then went to knock on the door. She stopped. All of the sudden she felt very nervous, and she never got nervous. C'mon Ayah, get a hold of yourself. You shouldn't be scared. She nodded and knocked on the door.
"Hello? Is anyone there?" She asked and then waited for an answer. She tapped her foot on the ground below just to get some of the butterflies she now had to go away. She looked up into the sky for a moment as some pidgy flew bye and she smiled looking back at the door as she waited. She reached up to knock again before she rested her hands at her sides to wait.

The professor opened the door, a relieved expression on his face. He'd been staring at his computer, doing inventory work all day, and it was wonderful to finally get a trainer. If anything, this new trainer would be nothing like the previous (they never were), and that would mean she would be interesting. And he certainly needed some interesting after a long day staring at numbers on a computer. "Good day, good day, come in, come in," he chanted, ushering the girl inside the chrome-colored lab. Staring down at the girl, giving her the once over, he slowly pulled out his "new trainer" speech from the back of his mind. "You must be the newest trainer to come over to Jenta, eh? Ayah, eh? Wonderful, wonderful. I'm sure you know all about the group system in Jenta - did you do your homework and study up on the way over?" He chuckled, adjusting his round glasses over his baby blue eyes before pulling a pamphlet from his lab coat pocket. "Kidding, of course. I don't expect you to be a study bug, or else you'd be in school. In any case, you can look over this pamphlet about the system if you have any questions, or you can just ask me." After Ayah's young hands took the paper from his old ones, he crossed his arms and began to explain the next part. "Alright, so what goes on in the lab...basically, you receive three starters. There are three groups based on level, and you receive one at the base level for each. This means that you receive a level 5 starter for Group 1, a level 25 starter for Group 2, and a level 45 starter for Group 3. You must carry one Pokemon from each group with you at all times - we had some problems awhile back with trainers getting attacked, so this is a precautionary measure. It also gives you some choice about your journey; Jenta is split into three 'subregions', as some call them. They correspond to group, so your first gym could involve fighting against a level 52 metagross if you'd like." He took a breath, and gestured to the techy lobby of the laboratory. "Here in this lab, you get to pick your Group 1 starter - that's the level 5 one. Your other two starters are picked at random by a computer, and are generally assigned to you to give you as well-rounded a team as possible while still maintaining some variation from the next trainer. You may choose what Pokemon to receive for Group 1 from that list on the wall, right there," he pointed to a list near Ayah's head. "Please don't ask for something not on that list. The possibilities for the other two starters are not limited to a small assortment like that, so if you have your heart set on a bagon or eevee," he suppressed a shudder, "you could always get one for Group 2 or 3, although it is rather unlikely." "So," he asked, giving Ayah a chance to look over the list. "What sort of Group 1 starter are you interested in? Also, think about the gender and personality you'd like as well. If I know what you're looking for, I can usually find it - I'm not psychic, so I'll just pick what I think is best if you don't care. Also, if you'd like to meet a few, I'll only bring out three at a time, at most." (( Pamphlet on the Grouping SystemList of Starters))

Ayah entered still with butterflies swarming in her stomach, she sighed as she walked through the door. The professor seemed to be a nice person and that reassured her a bit so she calmed down. She listened to him and rubbed the back of her head as he talked to her. She laughed at little at his joke though it did make her a little uneasy until he told her he was joking.
"Heh heh, I sure hope I had no homeword to do. Cause' if I did I didn't do it. But, my mom told me about this system." She told the professor before beginning to listen to him. He told her that she would recieve three Pokemon and that they would all vary in levels and types. She was now getting excited and her butterflies were going away. She smiled and nodded every once in a while to assure him that she was listening carefully. Then he pointed to the list and she turned her head to look at it. She had heard about a lot of these Pokemon. But, some she'd never heard of. She was interested in each and everyone of them but was alloud to choose only one. She sighed and let out a laugh.
"Geez, this gonna be a hard decision. They're all so cool sounding. This adventure is gonna be great!!" She said getting off track for a minute.
"Oh! guess I should concentrate a bit." She said looking back at the list with concetration. She was thinking very hard. Soon she narrowed it down a bit and turned back to the professor. He said that she could have him take out three at a time. She told him her choices so that he could do so.
"Okay then! Can you show me Bulbasaur, Chikorita, and Charmander please? If you can, I'd like them to be enterjetic like I am and Male please. I'm only ever around females." She told him turning to look at him with a smile. She was excited about meeting the tree pokemon and hoped for the best. If I don't get a dog type here, I can always catch on in the wild. Oooh, it'd be awsome to start out with a growlith though. Or even better, an Arcanine. Ayah thought to herself getting overwhelmed.

The professor nodded, and went into the back room to bring out Pokemon that fit her description. He returned with three Pokeballs, all of which he dropped onto the floor.
Three different Pokemon appeared, and all locked their gaze on Ayah at the same time.
The bulbasaur grinned, his red eyes flashing with excitement. "<Oooh boy! Are you a new trainer? Say yes! Say yes! Take me away! I wanna go travel! Please, please, pleeeeease!>" he whined, jumping a bit in excitement.
The chikorita skipped the whole word-thing, and instead, lunged at the girl's legs. "<I'VE GOT A TRAINER CAPTIVE!>" he roared, wrapping his stubby legs around her shins. He grinned up at her, clearly playing around. "<That's 100,000,000 pyen ransom, pleasethankyou.>"
The charmander just giggled to himself, unable to speak. It was so exciting! A trainer! Maybe he'd get picked. He looked up at Ayah, waving spastically. "<H-hi!>" he stuttered out, unable to speak smoothly not from nervousness, but from excitement. He tended to do this. "<I w-wanna come with you!>"

Ayah looked at the three Pokemon she could feel all their excitement as she looked at each of them. She started swaying her hips as she brought two clenched fists up to her chest and she let out a small sound that sounded as though she were about to cry.
"Awwww!! They're all so cute!!" She said in a rather loud voice, she was now extremely overwhelmed she couldn't decide between them and could she...here them? She knew what each one was saying and they all wanted to go with her very badly. It was so hard to decide, she knew of both Charmander and Chickorita, but the third Pokemon, a Bulbusaur, she'd never heard of. It was the cutest to her the way it looked at her with red eyes, eyes that seemed to reach her soul. He was the one she wanted but she still thought it hard to resist the over energized Chikorita and the also extremely cute Charmander. She let out another one of the sounds and knealed to the chikorita picking it up and looking it in the eyes, it smiled at her Pokemonishly.
"Aww, you're so willing to come...but, I can't take you all. "She said looking at the other two. She set the Chikorita down and walked over to the Charmander giving it a pat on the head gently. She wanted to take him as well, but she couldn't.
"You'll get another trainer, one that'll treat you with care." She told it before turning to the bulbasaur. She practically jumped at it taking it in her arms. She felt a bond with it, it seemed happy that it was being chosen. She loved him already, she held him in her arms as she turned to the other two Pokemon and the professor, she could see the dissapointment in their faces and she had a sad look on her face as well. She hated to leave them, her love for Pokemon made it extremely hard to say goodbye to Pokemon she had only met for a minute or two.
"Okay Professor, I think I'll take this Bulbasaur. I seem to have a bond with him already, I can tell he'll be loyal to me as well. Right Bulbasaur?" She said looking down into his red eyes before turning back to the professor.
"I can't stand this though, Chikorita and Charmander are both so cute. I'm sad I have to leave them, but I know I have too. Goodbye you two." She said to the both of them.
"Okay, now for the other two selections. Right?" She asked him knowing he would say yes because it was obvious that that's what came next. She set down the Bulbasaur so that it could be put back into it's Pokeball and so that she could take it with her on her new journey.

The bulbasaur nodded vigorously. Finally! He could go out and see the world!
The other two went back into their Pokeballs silently. Getting rejected by a potential trainer was nothing new - virtually no lab Pokemon was ever picked by the first trainer they saw. They learned not to get attached at first sight, and instead, try to appeal to as many kids as possible.
The professor nodded. "Good choice. Now then, what Pokedex color would you like, eh? Right now we have your standard red and brown, as well as orange, yellow, light green, dark blue, and white. Which would you like?"

The two other Pokemon went back into their Pokeballs with no words whatsoever. The Bulbasar was still standing next to her obviously excited that it had been chosen. Next came the Pokedex, she smiled and it was incredibly easy for her to decide, she wore orange and her favorite color was orange. Also the color of her favorite Pokemon was in fact, orange. She could do nothing but choose the Orange Pokedex. Oooh, one day that Pokedex is going to be filled with all the dog type Pokemon out there along with all the other ones as well...this is great.
"I'll have the Orange one please. Orange is my favorite color!" She said excitedly as she rocked back and forth going from the tip of her toes to her heals as she did so. Her hair swaying forward and then backwards and her bangs moving slightly as well. Her butterflies were now completely gone and she was ready for anything.

The professor quickly entered the stats of her bulbasaur into his computer, and then hit the button for the starter generation. The computer hummed and whirred satisfyingly as it thought its way through the problem. The professor nodded to himself, as he shuffled over to a box, and rooted around it in. A few minutes later he came back with an orange pokedex and plunked it on the table in the center of the room. "There you are, miss, and let me see here, you'll also be needing 5000 pyen, which has been carefully gift wrapped for you with this lovely rubber band," he laughed, as he fished it out of his pocket. "Sorry, normally I have a plastic wallet for this, but we've run out, and the pokemon league won't be sending me any more until they receive that inventory email I was telling you about. Anyway, we still have the berry bags, at least. Don't stint on these, they're basically the snack bags for your pokemon. And don't worry about not having enough berries are all over the ground in Jenta. The wild abra keep dropping them when they teleport in a hurry." He went over to another box, and rummaged around, pulling out a tan leather bag for Ayah, and dropping it gently on the table. He stroked his mustache for a moment, muttering to himself: "Berries, pokedex, money -- what else? Oh! Sorry, I almost forgot to give you the complementary pokeballs. You definitely need those if you're planning on being a serious trainer." As he brought five of these from another box the computer beeped, telling him that Ayah was soon going to train a growlithe and a pink shellos. Placing the pokeballs down on the table, Professor Cherry bustled over to a back room, and soon returned with two other pokeballs. These he handed personally to Ayah. "This is your group two starter, a male growlithe. Your group three starter is a female shellos." ~~~ ((This is the copy and paste stuff for your profile/character application. Don't forget to keep it updated, especially the level and moves that your pokemon know. The mods use all this info when battling pokemon, and if you don't keep the level list in your sig then the character application levels are used and we might make your pokemon grow to level 16 several times in a row if it's not updated. ^^; We're not the best when it comes to remember which member's pokemon is at what level. ^^ ) YOUR PACK: 5000 pyen 1 pokedex (orange) 5 pokeballs 1 berry bag with assorted berries YOUR POKEMON: Group 1 Bulbasaur Name: ? ? ? Gender: Male Level: 5 Moves: Growl, Tackle Special Ability: Overgrow - grass type moves become more powerful if this pokemon is about to faint. Personality: Very eager and excitable. Although he isn't the fastest pokemon, he likes to jump and run around a lot. He also will talk really fast when he's anxious. However, he's very happy to have been picked, and will do almost anything for Ayah. Group 2 Growlithe Name: ? ? ? Gender: Male Level: 25 Moves: Flame Wheel, Reversal, Bite, Oder Sleuth Special Ability: Intimidate - when brought out into battle the foe's attack is lowered, and when in the field pokemon 5 levels or more lower than he is won't dare to attack him. Personality: He's a loving happy puppy who doesn't really know his own strength, and will happily play tag with anyone, or jump up and down on them after he's knocked them over. Group Three Shellos (pink) Name: ? ? ? Gender: Female Level: 45 Moves: Body Slam, Mud Bomb, Muddy Water, Harden Special Ability: Sticky Hold - Items can't be snatched from her, and when fishing she'll help reel pokemon in. Personality: She's not quite as energized as Ayah's other two pokemon. She's the kind of person who likes to flop down on the couch and relax after a hard day's worth of work. And she does work very hard, pitting her stamina against other pokemon who try to attack Ayah, as she knows she's the most powerful in Ayah's team from a level point of view, so it's her job to protect them all.

Ayah could hear computer as it worked hard to compute what Pokemon she would be recieving, it was almost as if it was alive. She listened to the Professor as he gave her her orange Pokedex and other items, the rubberband joke was laughed at by the both of them. She already had a Bulbasaur, 5000 pyen, five Pokeballs, and some berries. Next she was to know what other two Pokemon would be accompanying her. When he told her she nearly fell flat on her face. She held in a loud yell, it was extremely hard to do for this new hyperactive trainer.
"Oh! Thank you thank you thank you Professor. You don't know how happy I am." Being Ayah, without thinking she ran over to the Professor with the three Pokeballs in her hands and gave him a hug. Then she turned and grabbed all her stuff in the bag and turned waving to the Professor with much excitement and a huge smile.
"Thank you so much!!" She said as she exited the lab. She ran a little away from the Lab and then stopped dead in her tracks setting down the brown bag and bringing her fists up to her chest like she always did. This time another small sound came from her throat and then she tilted her head back and let out a loud yell, it ended with her laughing and nearly on the ground. Her only problem now was that she had to keep herself focused on the journey ahead. If she didn't, she would end up in a terrible situation. Or even worse, her pokemon being stolen from her. Ayah took a deep break and put the items she had just recieved into her backpack that she'd brought with her, then she started to walk down the road taking one last look at the lab she'd just been in.
