Here goes nothing!

[♥Fallen Love♥]

Kayla walked up to the lab and sighed she was real nervous about going places and about getting a pokemon.She liked all types of pokemon but did not know what type to get.She knocked on door three times and stepped down to where the aide would be able to open the screen door.

[Nyaa-Neko]

((Sorry this is late...-_-))

Professor Cherry opened the door slowly, staring at the little girl. "Who are-oh yes, I remember. Kayla, eh? Well, then, come in, come in," he grumbled as he all but shoved the fledgling trainer inside the lab.

Once inside, Kayla was suddenly and unexpectedly the landing zone for a down-slithering ekans. The purple snake hissed as she loosely coiled around the girl before the professor yanked her off.

"HANA!" He yelled, dragging the serpent back to her cage and her friend. "I keep telling you to stay inside!"

"<That'sssssss no fun, Professssssssor,>" she spat, coiling upon herself in the spaceous cage.

Ignoring his Pokemon, the gray-haired scholar turned back to Kayla. "Well, then," he grunted. "Did you make sure to read up on our lab information? I'm sure you know about the group system, eh? Well, if you didn't,>" he shoved a crumpled pamphlet into her hands, "be sure to read up on this. All you really need to know is that you need to choose your Group 1 starter. If you forgot to look at our list, it's posted over there." He pointed to a sheet of paper tacked up on a nearby wall.

The man slid his hands into the pockets of his lab coat, and peered down at Kayla. "So? Got any ideas of a Group 1 starter, eh?"

((The pamphlet: banette.proboards51.com/index.cgi?board=rules&action=display&thread=1172265494

The list of starters: banette.proboards51.com/index.cgi?board=getyourstarterhere&action=display&thread=1138767558

If you have any questions, please ask. The system in Jenta is a little weird, but I'll be happy to clarify. ^_^))

[♥Fallen Love♥]

((It's ok))

Kayla took the pamphlet and looked at it and then looked at the list and sighed and said"Well I haven't thought of a pokemon I want yet"she hadn't really prepared about choosing a pokemon but she was thinking of one it was a Eevee she had a eevee in her family when she was a little girl and loved them since.

[Nyaa-Neko]

The professor looked at the girl and her indecision. He shrugged, and looked at the list with her. "Is there a type you like? As you know, you can only choose your Group 1 Pokemon - the other two are mostly random - but the other two generally work around that type." He paused, and smiled sheepishly. "I apologize if you were looking to pick eevee, mareep, weedle, or one of the dragons. We had to take a few Pokemon off the list when we switched to the group system. There's still a chance of getting one as a starter for a different group, though. However, I wouldn't count on it."

[♥Fallen Love♥]

"Well I was counting on a eevee but if you dont have any left could I ask for a Mimiroru I was born around those two pokemon when I was a little girl"she said hoping that they had a Mimiroru.

((sorry is brain dead))

[Nyaa-Neko]

Professor Cherry raised an eyebrow. "Mimi...oh, Buneary? I'm sorry, but Sinnoh Pokemon aren't native. We're working on importing some breeders to populate the routes with Sinnoh Pokemon who can survive here, but they aren't, for the most part, available to trainers yet." He gave Kayla a strange, disapproving look. "Did you even read the list? Those are the Pokemon we offer for Group 1 starters. If you like normal-types, we have zigzagoon, rattata, and igglybuff. Oh, and azurill and pidgey, if you count them."

[♥Fallen Love♥]

"I'll just get a Chikorita"Kayla said with a sad face she loved pokemon and wanted a pokemon she had been raised around.well at least you will have a pokemon cousin David had Kayla thought to her self.

[Nyaa-Neko]

"Chikorita is fine," the professor grunted. "Any sort of personality you're looking at, then? And what about gender...boy or girl?"

[♥Fallen Love♥]

"Personalty dosent matter and the gender would be girl"she said sighing but at least she will have a pokemon for her journey around the region.

((Can I make Cousin David mentioned in my last post...he only has two pokemon a Chikorita and a Cyndaquil one a male and one a female.))

[Nyaa-Neko]

The professor nodded, and went into one of the back rooms. He peered through his collection of chikorita. I have four, he thought. This one's nice - oh, but he's a boy. The other two are male as well. Oh good, we have one female. He picked up the Pokeball and walked back over to Kayla.

"I have a chikorita for you. I only had one girl, so you'll just have to accept the personality she has. Now then, I have one last decision for you to make." He lead the girl over to a table with an array of Pokedexes. "We have quite a few colors, as you can see. Pick one. You can have red, orange, yellow, green, light blue, dark blue, purple, or grey. For some reason we've run out of black and white," he said apologetically.

((What do you mean by "make"? You can have him cameo in your journey, that's fine, but you can't have him winning badges for you or anything. Can you be more specific?))

[♥Fallen Love♥]

"Ok"Kayla taking the pokeball and smiled and then walked over to the pokedex's and said"Blue with a light blue trim if you have any like that".

((Like make his profile so I can roleplay him and I would roleplay him and I will roleplay Kayla and him on diffrent area's))

[Nyaa-Neko]

((Erm...right now, everybody has only one character. We don't have an explicit character limit, as far as I know of, but maybe you should just stick to one character for now?))

The professor raised one white eyebrow. "Light blue we have...but we don't have special trims," he explained gruffly. Was the girl colorblind, greedy, or just a little clueless when it came to Pokedexes? He couldn't tell... "Is that okay with you?"

[♥Fallen Love♥]

"Yea"Kayla said she was turning red she knew that she was making a fool of her self just by asking all these stupid questions.Quit making a fool of your self Kayla Kayla thought to her self.

[Nyaa-Neko]

The professor waved his hand as he took the light blue Pokedex with the other. "No, don't worry about it. Just wait a moment." He then shuffled off into the back room, and returned with a lumpy brown package. The said lumpy brown backage was thrust into Kayla's hands, and he prodded it with a finger. "This, girl, is your starter package. Inside you'll find your light blue Pokedex, a bag of assorted berries for on-the-road healing and such, a wallet with 5000 pyen - that's our currency, five empty Pokeballs, and two filled ones. One of the filled ones has your Group 2 starter, and the other has your Group 3 starter. Obviously, your Group 1 starter's Pokeball isn't in there b'cause you're holding it."

Professor Cherry then guided the girl over to a large, crooked map of Jenta displayed on one of the walls. "This is a map of Jenta, and we are," he poked a dot labeled "Jenta Laboratory", "right here. As you can see, there are three roads going away from my laboratory. You may choose any of them as your starting route."

First, he dragged his finger along the eastward route. "This is Route 1, a temperate route filled with Group 1 Pokemon that goes along a pretty little stream to the east. You can also take a slight detour to visit Mushroom Forest, though you don't have to. The city it takes you to is Sapphire City, where Arisa has her ice-type gym. You do have a disadvantage, since you started with a grass-type for that group, but if you manage to find a fighting-type or an electric-type either in the Mushroom Forest or in Sankaku Island or something, you may be okay. I don't know if I recommend this route, but it could work if you catch the right Pokemon."

He then pulled his finger back to the lab's dot, then pulled it downwards along another possible road. "This is Route 3, which goes through a sort of rocky-area, forest, and open meadow to take you to Florak Town in the south. Your Group 2 Pokemon will see all the action here, which is a good thing, considering she'll have a nice advantage. She will also have a nice advantage in the Florak gym as well as the next, and if you back her up with some flying-types or grass-types, you should do very well. I highly recommend this route."

Finally, he traced the line back to the lab, then passed it to the north. "Your final choice is the Route 5/Sunstone Tunnel combination into the mountain range in the north, which takes you to the underground Settlement of Nga. Along the way you have a lot of rocky, mountainous enviroments, home to a lot of Group 3 fire- and ground-types. However, these and your Group 3 starter will have an easy time with Bahati's steel-types, so this would also be a good route. I recommend it as well."

He peered back down at Kayla as he walked her to the door. "Well, that's it, then. I hope you have a good journey."

((Whew! Sorry that took so long, I kind of had to deal with school. Bleh.

Anyway, here are the stats of your three Pokemon. It is up to you to copy + paste them into the the thread you have for Kayla in the Applications forum and keep them up-to-date. Usually mods won't bother unless they're annoyed, or something. ^_^;;

Chikorita
Gender: Female
Level: 5
Group: 1
Nickname: you choose
Ability: Overgrow: grass-type attacks get more powerful when health is low
Attacks: Tackle, Growl
Personality: Kind of bratty. She only likes it when things go her way, and can often get a little snippy towards those to stand in it. She's a good battler, but hates it when she loses. Of course, if she does, it's never her fault...and they'll never hear the end of it. Deep down, though, she actually does care for Kayla and the rest of her team...it's just a little bit deep.

Smoochum
Gender: Female
Level: 25
Group: 2
Nickname: you choose
Ability: Oblivious: cannot be infatuated
Attacks: Sweet Kiss, Powder Snow, Confusion, Sing
Personality: Sweet, caring, nice, kind...all-around a good girl. She's also mature, so expect a quick evolution into Jynx. However, she's also very shy, and while she has the natural singing abilities of her line, she has absolutely no self-confidence. She's too shy to actually sing, and often gets very nervous when ordered to do sound-based attacks. She does try, though...

Houndour
Gender: Male
Level: 45
Group: 3
Nickname: you choose
Ability: Flash Fire: oncoming fire attacks power up fire-attack power and don't damage
Attacks: Counter, Smog, Faint Attack, Flamethrower
Personality: Aloof, gruff, unsociable, violent when provoked...but so loyal to Kayla he'd explode if he showed it. While he comes off as hating everybody (and he kind of does, to a certain extent), he'd actually kill them if they harmed Kayla or any of his teammates. However, he doesn't show it unless they actually get harmed, so don't expect any niceness anytime soon. However, he's a great battler, and loves to battle (almost too much).

So...sorry that took so long...and now off with you to Route 1/3/5!))
