future!verse Daughters of Ivy Rei Amaryllis and Rui Rei are attending the academy in Paldea Follows from ivy-mun Multimuse

[ivoryspecter]

Ama found her friend surrounded by....puppies! Maschiff puppies! All the barking, some not as much as other, some kept their distance, others instantly ran up upon the boy to investigate. They were all cute in their own little way right? But they looked far too young to be alone.

Blake looked back with a concerned look on his face as his pants were bit at and tugged on by the puppy Dark-Types!

"Erm...I don't see any sign of any parents. All these little ones might be on their own...?"

His head turned to check out the area around them, a concerned look growing on his face.

Did something happen? He wouldn't think mother dog Pokemon would wander too far or at all without their puppies...?

[amaryllisrei]

This was a surprise. Ama watched as the puppies nipped at her friend's pants, yipping and jumping around enthusiastically. At least they didn't look injured, but...

The little alcove that seemed to be their den was too tiny for any parent to be hidden within. Whipping her head side to side, she quickly scanned the general area with no sign of a mabostiff mother anywhere around. Unfortunately, the pups were a bit too small to articulate what may have occured there, or where their mom was. This was one instance where she would be ok talking with them, but... they were barely a few weeks old. Not only that, but the chances the mother left to go hunt for them were slim to none- these pups were probably still reliant on her milk. Only a couple had fresh teeth beginning to pop through their gums, sparing Blake's pants from any holes as they nipped at him.

"I have a weird feeling about this..." she murmured, kneeling down and holding her hand out to the couple shy pups in the back. "Oide, oide, daijoubu-yo, little babies," she cooed softly, rubbing her fingers together in a rare moment of gentleness the other may have never seen from her before.

Only one pup was brave enough to slowly approach, a little purple thing, cautiously sniffing at her outstretched hand. "See? All safe," she re-assured, then looked up at Blake with concern. "I don't think the mom would have left them. They should still be nursing..."

The little maschiff, done sniffing, determined that he did indeed find the girl to be a friend, and put his tiny paw up on to her leg, attempting to crawl into her lap. From a little bit away, she heard her litten meowing loudly, so she scooped the tiny little puppy into her hand before going to investigate.

"Claw marks in the dirt... It looks like there was a scuffle over here!" she called to Blake, kneeling down to look closer at all the marks. A battle? What the hell happened here?

[corespotlight]

"Guh, s-sorry Rui, you alright?" he would hoist his upper body up and rest on his elbows. Arceus he felt gross, covered in all this mud, it reminded him of training with his dad. Now THAT was some rough stuff...

His usually friendly eyes seemed to sharpen up as he quickly brought himself back to his feet, offering his 'partner' his hand to help her back up too.

"We got this, don't worry, we get this done, catch that menace of a bird and find some place to hunker down..."

The Frigibax loudly chirped at being splattered with mud, still stricking away at the large bird Pokemon. Once Ryu saw it lose it's balance and fall prone into the mud, he gave the command.

"Kura, Icicle Spear!"

The small dragon's eyes blinked, and he gave a loud (but tiny) yell as if to tell his Grass-Type 'friend' to back away! Jumping off the Flamigo, the tiny dragon launched himself upwards into the air, showering the muddy bird Pokemon with sharp icicles! Cold enough to even freeze the mud the bird was stuck in, restricting it's movements.

Then it came, Ryu quickly grabbed a spare ball from his belt, tossing it and watching it smack the bird Pokemon's beak, with a loud click the Pokeball would open, and force the bird into it!

[amaryllisrei]

A moment of hesitation as Ryu held his muddied hand out to her and she looked up at him. Really looked at him, maybe for the first time since they'd started this little adventure. He had the face of a boy, but not a child, kind yellow eyes, and a confident smirk. Never in a million years did she think she'd end up in a situation like this, but she placed her equally as muddied hand in his with a bright red blush. She couldn't imagine what she looked like to him, dirtied and sitting in the mud, but there was no use being embrassed now, they were both absolutely coated in the stuff.

As the boy hoisted her up, she dug her heels in to the ground to regain a sturdy footing, her eyes darting back to the pokemon. Ryu made some split second decisions to take advantage of the opening Maomao had given them. She couldn't help but feel impressed, regardless of the rough start they had, he was confidently able to command his pokemon in such a choatic situation.

With baited breath, she watched as the ball swayed back and forth, clenching her hands into fists with anticipation. Almost there! Another crack of thunder and she jumped, Maomao running to her side and begging to be returned to the safety of her dry pokeball. Rui obliged, pulling the ball out and calling her back just as the wind picked up and it started to drizzle. This was bad. The storms out there during rainy season were no joke, the wetlands could flood within minutes of heavy rain.

Just then the pokeball clicked, the red light disappearing, and the swaying coming to a silent end.

"Is that it? D-did you get it?" she questioned, excitement beginning to take over her fear.

[ivoryspecter]

"I don't see why not? My treat, how about that--."

He was cut off as he watched her and her cat rush to fight some fleeing Flying-Type Pokemon. Yet he stayed out of it, it was their fight? Or 'fight'? The birds seemed more like fleeing, so...

"Ah, well, better luck next time right?"

"Fuhaha."

It was a dry, laughing sound from the small fire-type beside Blake as he stared up at Ama, as if mocking her. That's what you get for trying to steal him all the time.

Blake's attention was drawn from his friend, to a glittering object that reflected the sun off the path slightly, eager, the white haired boy approached it, kneeling down to pick it up-- Only to find himself tumbling down a slightly steep hill, the sound of loud grunting followed, then silence, until...

"Hey, hey Ama! You might wanna see this!!"

[amaryllisrei]

Amber eyes snap a glare down at the single brain celled pokemon. "Well I don't see you trying to help catch anything! We won't get anywhere if you're just gonna sit around staring brainlessly at the sky!" the redhead hmphed, crossing her arms.

A moment passed while the two glared at each other before Ama realized they were alone. "Huh? Where's your dumdum trainer?" she asked Chile, twisting left and right, before catching sight of white hair bending down by the cliffside. Like pokemon like trainer, huh? she thought as she watched him begin to tumble with dust kicking into the air. Her litten blinked at the sight, licking at his paw.

"Are you ok?" she shouted, walking at only a mildly faster pace than normal to the top of the cliff- well, more like a very large hill. Both pokemon followed behind her, looking down over the drop for Blake. "See what?" she asked as he called out to her, but he sounded concerned. Standing up straight, she looked for a way down, finding a slightly better path than tumbling off the hill. With careful steps- and a little sliding- she reached the bottom with the pokemon in toe.

"What is it?" she asked as she approached the boy.

[corespotlight]

"Ow, ow, ow, ow..." he would grumble, rubbing his sore nose before taking in the sight of the rather brave cat Pokemon fighting with the bird, the poor thing being swung around by the much large Pokemon. But this was an opening.

"Kura, Dragon Claw--!!"

The tiny Dragon-type was eager for revenge, kicking his body off his trainer's face and causing the young man to stumble back into his partner!

As the Grass-Type distracted the wild Pokemon, the Dragon-Type would attack from above, his tiny arm cloaked in a purple aura that formed jagged claws, before striking the weird bird Pokemon across the back of it's head, causing it to be sent stumbling around on one leg as the cat sunk her fangs into it's leg!

[amaryllisrei]

Rui let out an oof as Ryu was pushed back into her, the two falling down into the mud. Just as they landed, a loud crack of thunder echoed through the valley, reverberating off the mountains surrounding them.

"O-Oh no," the girl murmured, her eyes immediately darting to the sky. The black clouds were nearly right above them now. As the thunder faded, the wetlands became eerily quiet, aside from the scuffle going on in front of them.

"Maomao, we need to wrap this up now," she warned the cat, but would it even matter? They were hours out from the school, let alone any kind of town or shelter. Even if the battle ended that second, there was no way they would escape the rapidly approaching storm.

Despite this, Maomao released her jaws from the bird, flying into the air for a moment before landing on all fours into another puddle of mud. Now the two students and their pokemon were completely soiled with it, the flamigo stomping up clumps and splattering them onto the dragon as it struggled.

Disgusting. You owe me for this, big time, the sprigatito glared at Rui, who turned her head away and back toward the sky. As she did so, Maomao launched a magical leaf attack at the bird, causing it to finally lose it's balance and fall prone into the mud as well.

[ivy-mun]

{I got a minor concussion over the weekend and have been resting and binging anime, I will try to get to replies tmw! Sorry to everyone who I owe}

[ivoryspecter]

"Oh? I thought you'd be one to go against what everyone else was doing?" He asked, raising a brow at her before answering her next question.

The Fire-type didn't seemed bothered at all, simply...staring into the abyss. Did it stare back? The Pokemon would not say!

"Mmh it doesn't have to be a Ghost-Type per say, that'd be cool though, my first Paldean Ghost-Type!" His eyes seemed to light up as he began making his way down the dirt path, keeping his eyes peeled before turning his gaze to the small town in the distance.

"I heard the Bug-Type gym leader is in that town and she runs a bakery...maybe we could swing by later?"

[amaryllisrei]

Ama's head snapped to Blake at the mention of the bakery. "Yeah? Can we, can we? I want to try it!" Oh. But she had no money left. The redhead let out a whine, tilting her head toward the sky. Stupid assignment! Stupid Paldea! Stupid Professor Clavell!

Following close behind the white haired boy, Ama jumped up onto a pile of rocks and climbed to the top, looking out over the fields. There were a couple pokemon skittering here and there, most she had never seen before. Should she just catch one to get this done with so they could go eat pastries instead? Somehow, that felt wrong... she wanted her new partner to be special, not something she just settled on to get the day over with.

In the far off distance, she could see dark clouds approaching the wetlands, but far enough out that they probably wouldn't even reach her and Blake. Hopefully her sister had brought an umbrella with her.

Sliding down from the rocks she rejoined Blake, huffing again. Her litten mewed loudly, startling a flock of fletchling. Maybe one of those! It evolved into Talonflame, right? Having a flying type would be helpful! "Pollux!" she said to the cat "go catch one of those birds! You're good at that!"

The litten blinked, looking over at the fletchlings taking off into the air. He pounced into the flock, jumping up and grabbing at the birds with his two front paws, but swiping at dead air. The birds were already long gone by the time he landed back down on his feet.

"Dammit," Ama cursed, clenching the luxury ball in her hand.

[corespotlight]

Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch. This damn bird was pretty solid for looking like a lawn ornament! How is that even possible! But Ryu wasted no time, tossing a Pokeball from his belt up to release his Frigibax partner!

!!

The small dragon let out an excited chirp, finally, some action! His small tag wagged excitedly as his trainer stood behind him and between the wild Pokemon and Rui!

"Kura, Icicle Spear!"

The Pokemon was quick to answer the call of his trainer, jumping upwards as his small yellow quills on the side of his arms would begin to launch small icicles at the charging bird!

Who then suddenly used Double Kick to close the distance between the two Pokemon, then striking at the tiny Dragon-type, sending him flying once again into Ryu's face!

"WHY!?"

The blonde's muffled voice cried out as his partner got launched into his face, causing the two of them to fall backwards!

[amaryllisrei]

"Ryu, watch ou-"

It was too late. The lawn ornament really angry bird had already closed the gap, striking the poor little dragon back into Ryu's face. It almost may have been comical, had she not felt such intense dread at their current situation. Finally, slim fingers reached into the pocket of her jacket, grabbing the pokeball her sister had lent her and throwing it between Ryu and the enraged pokemon. Now standing between the two was her sister's sprigatito, growling and hissing with her hackles raised.

"M-Maomao, do something!" Rui commanded, to which the cat seemed unimpressed. You don't know any of my attacks or what, idiot? she seemed to retort, but the flamigo was already on the move again, kicking it's leg into the air. Maomao had to make a split second decision and... latched onto it's toothpick leg with a bite attack, the bird now swinging the cat around in the air to try and get her to detach.

"Ah- Maomao!" Rui fretted, taking a step foward to prepare to catch her if she did indeed lose grip and get launched into the air.

[flocessyranch]

@amaryllisrei:

"Oh, right, I kinda forgot that was a thing," she admits, scratching the back of her neck, slightly embarassed. Her mother had made her attend nearly all of her school grades before being allowed to train pokemon, she'd forgotten there was a minimum age most kids were allowed to start at, considering she was way past it by the time she did. Still, it was refreshing to hear of Willow's plans. She'd really thought it all out! Ama couldn't help but wonder what sort of pokemon trainer she would become, but something told her she'd be pretty fiesty in the future, considering how she is even now at just eight years old. "You gotta send me some pics once you do, but won't it be scary?! That tower is full of graves and psychics!" she shivers. What is she going on about? The girl who can see ghosts, communicate with the dead, and descends from a long line of witches? No, no. She rejected that part of herself. "See, now Blueberry academy, that sounds nice, way more my speed than a scary tower," she jokes, "you're way braver than me, Willow." Before she can comment any further on the exchange program, Milo cuts off, seemingly surprised by the two trainers who came out to begin their battle. Well, at least he knows who one of the students is. She has no clue. Maybe. The girl with the eevee backpack actually looks somewhat familiar, but damned if she can ever remember anyone's name. "Is he? Really really?" she asks Milo, trying to stand up onto her tip toes to get a better view. Man, if she can't see, what about Willow? "Wanna get on my shoulders?" she asks the girl, "then you can tell me what's going on, cause I can't see a thing!"

Willow grins a toothy grin at Amaryllis. "S'all good, and I mean, ghost-types are pretty awesome once you get to know them!" She reassures. "I'll be sure to take a picture once it happens, but, y'know, maybe we can find you a ghost-type to befriend!" She points out. "Actually, I--" Milo's expression has her attention and she turns her attention to the battle.

Milo seems to have missed what Amaryllis said as he's engrossed in the fight between a Flareon and a Hydrapple. Willow has to tug at his sleeve then to get his attention. "Huh? Oh. Sorry." He looks to Amaryllis. "Uh... No, that's okay. I think I'm a bit too big for that. Willow I think would crush you too." Willow gets pouty at that. "I'm not! I'm notttt!" She smacks on her brother a bit who flinches. "Ow ow ow ow! I just spoke the truth!

Willow is left pouting at that to which Milo apologizes softly. "I'm sorry. I just don't want Miss Amaryllis to get hurt."

[amaryllisrei]

"Ahh, yeah," she replies, thinking of all the ghosts back at home, and the entourage Blake was sure to amass. It's not that she didn't like ghost types, per se, but... her mother's milky eyes flash in her mind for a moment before she banishes the thought. Nope. Normal girl. Normal, boring, plain old university girl. Nothing weird or strange to make fun of, or bully, or freak out about. Just normalcy.

The sibling's argument snaps her back to the present, two pokemon duking it out on the field as students chant the name of the trainer they were rooting for. So, Penny and Keiran, huh? She figured Penny was from naranja-uva, considering Milo had reconized the boy opponent. The girl seemed to really like the eevee evolutions... like, a lot.

"Oh," Ama laughs, listening to Willow pout. "I was actually asking Willow- I think I'm pretty strong!" she replies, feeling almost offended that the children didn't think she could lift a pretty skinny looking eight year old. Hell, maybe she could lift Milo, too, if she really put her back into it... but eh... nah, Arceus forbid she did accidentally drop one of them and their mom had a fit. Moms could be scary. She would know.

[ivoryspecter]

Figures. He caught her still staring at his Fuecoco. She's been doing it the whole time ever since he got Chile. Why such an obsession though...

"Well, guess going in blind kinda makes for more surprises huh?" He blinked at her own Pokemon chasing dandellion heads around, until one flew in front of Chile, who instantly snapped it into his mouth. Bite first, think later. Great plan there.

"...All the money?" He stared at her in disbelief before rubbing his temples with both hands. Why Ama, why....She needs to take a money management class.

"I mean, at least you got something to use. So c'mon." He was eager to explore, of course, there were Fletchinders flying about, Mareep grazing, Diglett tilling the fields and wild Combee flitting about, yet, they didn't catch his interest at all...

[amaryllisrei]

The redhead sighed, kicking a rock. "Boring, maybe we should have gone to the wetlands like everyone else," she grumbled, watching Chile eat the cotton spore. Ew. The texture alone was probably terrible.

In her hand she rolled the luxury ball she'd bought, having had only enough money for one. It meant she only got one chance at catching whatever it was she would try for, but it was true, none of the pokemon there seemed worth catching in a luxury ball.

"Maybe we should wait till night time or something... you want a ghost, don't you?" she asked, tilting her head slightly. She just couldn't escape them, no matter how hard she tried. First it was her mom, then Blake, then the little girl she'd met with the gengar obsession, not to mention the entire reason she could barely even sleep at night. The voices never quieted, never settled.

[corespotlight]

"Right..."

Ryu loved storms though, something about them was so exciting to him and he couldn't put his finger on it. However, Rui was right, this storm would most likely scare off any Pokemon that wasn't a Water or Electric type if anything.

His yellow eyes scanned the marshlands as he began to trudge through the thick, wet mud below them. It was a lot of work, but Pokemon Trainers don't complain! Right??

He went to take another step, yet slipped, falling forward with a loud thud and a crash into some tall grass, disappearing, before--

"Uh-oh!"

His voice rang out, the blonde was seen scooting back quickly, a red mark on his face from where he hit something, and yet from the grass...

The loud cry of the pink demon of the marshlands!

A Wild Flamigo appeared!!

[amaryllisrei]

Rui was right behind him, holding back her grimmace as her feet sunk into the mud with every step. She would have to just throw these shoes away, at this point.

"Ah, Ryu--" she tried to grab him before he fell, just barely missing the collar of his shirt as tumbled into a large island of tall grass. It was like he completely disappeared. Man, Rui thought, adults were actually right, that tall grass is no joke. She contemplated going in after him, but before she could even make up her mind, she heard him shout. "Uh-oh?! W-What do you mean uh-oh--" but her question was answered before it even fully left her mouth.

At this point, Ryu had scooted back out of the grass and was beside her again, albeit a new red mark adorning his face, and they were now face to face with a very angry looking bird.

"W-what is that thing?!" she shouted, fumbling to grab the rotom phone in her pocket. It wasn't worth trying to pull up the dex app, she decided, they were in real, serious danger!

[flocessyranch]

@amaryllisrei:

"Hey, if you like the gengar line so much, why don't you get one of your own?" the redhead asks, tilting her head to the side as they begin to walk in the direction the trainer sent them. "I know someone who is really good with ghost types, I bet he could help you catch a ghstly, if you want?" In her head, Blake's dumb, grinning face flashes, giving a thumbs up. Gods. Why can't anyone around her just be normal, thinks the least normal girl ever. Light at the end of the hallway looks promising as they make their way toward it, exiting out the doors and into the school yard. It seems a large crowd was already gathering, and the battle hadn't started yet, thankfully! "What's Blueberry academy like, Milo?" she asked over the hustle and bustle of the people chattering. "I heard it was close to Unova. I think if my mom had stayed there instead of going back to Hoenn, I might've gone to Blueberry instead. I heard it has it's own biome? I'd like to check it out sometime if I can. Maybe I can do an exchange program for a little bit!"

"She doesn't have her trainer's license, so... she can't. Not for two more years." Milo speaks up to which Willow nods. "I plan to go to Kanto to the Lavender Tower and catch one! I got it all planned out!" She exclaims. "Unovan laws are a bit more strict." Milo explains. "At least all the avenues our mom has tried she can't exactly get Willow her license until she's at least ten." He sighs. "The offer is really nice though! Thank you!" Willow says with a smile.

"Hmm..." As they head towards the chattering students, Milo thinks on how to answer. "I mean it's a bit unique I guess. It's a place that's built into the ocean itself. You have to get there by ferry, pokemon, or airship. I go by ferry to and from Virbank City. My mom's Garchomp takes me the rest of the way home." That being said, he thinks on her attending. "If you want, the program for that is always open from what I hear. There's a terarium, yes. Lots of people come over just to go see it--"

He's caught off-guard by a familiar form of a student battling someone he doesn't recognize, but his gaze shifts from that person to the one he does know. "So... I know this person, but not on a first name basis. He's a real big deal at Blueberry." Milo looks to both girls. "I wonder what he's doing here?" Willow shrugs.

[amaryllisrei]

"Oh, right, I kinda forgot that was a thing," she admits, scratching the back of her neck, slightly embarassed. Her mother had made her attend nearly all of her school grades before being allowed to train pokemon, she'd forgotten there was a minimum age most kids were allowed to start at, considering she was way past it by the time she did.

Still, it was refreshing to hear of Willow's plans. She'd really thought it all out!

[corespotlight]

"A little dirt is just part of the adventure!"

As the twos Cyclizar stopped in union, Ryu would return his once he got off. It was clear he was pretty use to it. The Dragon Sanctuary had a vast array of different biomes built into it for all the dragons to be comfortable after all, and helping out there certainly prepared him for this.

"Hey. At least your shower will feel a lot better once we get back right?" He would gently nudge his partner with his elbow, and stick his tongue out in a playful manner. Clearly unbothered.

"So, lets get to it yeah? The faster we do this the less dirty you get!"

Taking a step forward, his yellow eyes gazed over the puddled landscape. There were certainly signs of Pokemon roaming about, yet in the skies, deep, dark clouds rolled toward them, slowly, but it was still coming.

"Hmm..."

[amaryllisrei]

This weather didn't bode well for the two adventurers, but no matter, they had come this far, and Rui's socks were wet already, what was a little rain.

The girl adjusted her hair, combing through it roughly with her fingers before recalling the cyclizar with a glare. I like you, girl, it seemed to chuckle at her before de-materializing. Rui huffed.

"I'm already dreaming about it," she giggled as he nudged her. In a way, Ryu reminded her a little of Blake, and she wondered how him and her sister were holding up out there, too. She would admit (only to herself) that she was disappointed when she didn't get paired with him, but what could she do? Amaryllis always came out on top, in that regard... She never understood why he liked her so much, given how mean she always was, but he always took it in stride, always smiled and laughed it off. What the hell was it about her sister that made everyone take her shit with a smile?

Feeling herself getting heated, the psychic took another deep breath, shaking her head to shoo away the thoughts. "I think we'd better be quick about this, Ryu. The sky's looking a little ominous," Rui remarked, green eyes darting to the blackening horizon. It was far off, yes, but those storms were known to roll in fast this time of year. Best they get in and get out as fast as they could. But... where were all the pokemon? By the way everyone had made it sound on the forums, this place should have been crawling with all sorts of different pokemon. Was it possible the incoming storm had them scatter? That would be just their luck...

[ivoryspecter]

@amaryllisrei

"I guess great minds think alike huh?"

Blake turned his gaze to his red headed partner as they left the town gates, out upon the farm lands of South Province between Mesagoza and Los Platos. The two decided to hunt for their second team members for their Pokemon Teams here.

While everyone else darted off into the marshlands elsewhere, these two got the sturdier farmland grounds. Blake's eyes scanned over the horizon. It was still a fairly hilly area too.

He was busy wandering about what Pokemon they could find out here. His Fuecoco sitting in front of his feet now and staring ahead, his mouth slightly open...

"Anything you'd wanna find Ama?"

[amaryllisrei]

Amaryllis barely heard him. She was too busy staring at the Fuecoco sitting by his feet. What a fascinating pokemon... completely smooth brained. How? HOW did it evolve into Skeleridge? Curses. Not that she really needed any more ghost types around- she'd had enough of that from her own mother.

"Uh... I'm gonna be honest, Blake, I actually have no idea what's out here," she confessed, having not studied the region and it's habitats, like, at all.

At her feet her Litten chased floating dandellion heads, jumping into the air and trying to catch them in his mouth. She had lent her sprigatito to her sister, who had missed out on the offered starters. Technically, the professor had wanted her to start on even ground with the rest of the students by using the Paldean one, but... well, what he didn't know wouldn't hurt him, right? Litten was just the same.

"But I used up all the money my mom sent me on a luxury ball and I'm sure as hell gonna use it, so whatever pokemon I get has to be cool, and luxury ball worthy," she nodded, determined.

[the-duskbound-codex]

"Two, actually. The two Sinnoh champions. That...ohh what is it... Garchomp? Scares me to death."

[amaryllisrei]

"No way, for real? You met Cynthia? She's so cool..." Ama fawns, sighing wistfully with jealousy. "I met a garchomp once, at a dragon sanctuary. They are pretty scary, not gonna lie..."

[flocessyranch]

@amaryllisrei:

Hm, Unovan summers? She's never been to Unova personally, but she'd heard that's where her mom and dad had met. She didn't really know much about that time in her mother's life, she tended not to talk much about her past, if at all. "Oh- yeah sure," she replies, trying to remember how exactly to even get to the schoolyard. Lost in thought, she barely processes the side conversation the two siblings are having, but clocks a few words. What they thought happened to her? Did something bad happen to one of their pokemon? She decides to tuck that tidbit of information away for later, scanning a few of the hallway options before the child runs off. Amber eyes make contact with red ones, spotting the gengar the girl had run to. That was one ghost type her mother didn't have. Catching up to the siblings, she huffs a few times, out of breath. This school was really putting her through it so far, exercise wise. Actually, now that she thinks about it, the trainer and ghost seem like they came from sparring. "Do you happen to know which way to the school yard? Are there any battles happening by chance?" she asks the trainer, who nods and points them in the right direction. There was actually one about to start, according to him, between one of the top students in Naranja-uva and one from Blueberry academy. It would be a sight, he promised.

Willow continues to fawn of the sight of the Gengar for a few moments before Milo marches over, taking her by the hand and dragging her back to Amaryllis. Having overheard about the schoolyard location, he gives her a small nod.

"If you're ready, lead the way." His sister looks a little bummed, but she straightens out of it, eager to see what the trainers here had to offer. "If it's someone from Blueberry Academy, maybe I know them?..." Milo asked. "To be honest, it's a big school so probably not, but..."

[amaryllisrei]

"Hey, if you like the gengar line so much, why don't you get one of your own?" the redhead asks, tilting her head to the side as they begin to walk in the direction the trainer sent them. "I know someone who is really good with ghost types, I bet he could help you catch a ghstly, if you want?"

In her head, Blake's dumb, grinning face flashes, giving a thumbs up. Gods. Why can't anyone around her just be normal, thinks the least normal girl ever.

Light at the end of the hallway looks promising as they make their way toward it, exiting out the doors and into the school yard. It seems a large crowd was already gathering, and the battle hadn't started yet, thankfully!

"What's Blueberry academy like, Milo?" she asked over the hustle and bustle of the people chattering. "I heard it was close to Unova. I think if my mom had stayed there instead of going back to Hoenn, I might've gone to Blueberry instead. I heard it has it's own biome? I'd like to check it out sometime if I can. Maybe I can do an exchange program for a little bit!"

About The Mun

My name is Rin, Im 32 yrs old, and I started rping here on tumblr back around 2013, when X&Y was released. I was part of the OG Pokemon Adventure Challenge (PAC) RP group. My first muse was Lunette and then her brother Beau. They have since been retired, after I really got my footing on how I actually wanted to rp and design my characters. That's when Ivy was born. My messy daughter, she took me through many fun years of RP here, building numerous relationships, and growing as a person. From there, Furuka came to fruition, the complete opposite of my degenerate witch child.

Before Tumblr, I RPed Sesshomaru on neopets in a guild I ran called "Anime Rain Falls," lmao. Of course, I had my hands on the gaiaonline forums, too. I am also a published poet and have my BA in literature and creative writing. For work, I'm a career technical writer/document control specialist in Sever and Rack integration, with a background in medical devices.

Outside of all that, I'm a pokemon merch collector, and I've been collecting since 2003 (I was in 3rd grade!). My first pokemon game was Red on the game boy advance (I was slightly late to the party).

I'm kind of shy at first, but I promise I'm not stand-offish or like, ignoring anyone. I reply to tumblr IMs, and am open to discord for moots! Just shoot me an IM and let me know who you are if you request me, otherwise I will ignore it thinking it's spam. I work a LOT. Like 13 hours of my day are dedicated to my commute and work. I try to pop in during my down time and maybe get some small posts out, but the big threads only happen at night once I'm home, given I have the time/energy. I may not be able to get to everyone's thread in one night, and for that I am sorry :') If I had it my way, I would dedicate my time to art and creative writing, but alas.

If you read all of that, you're a trooper, let's be friends :)

"Eh!?"

She was gone before he could even hear her! Watching her dragon dart down the steps at full speed, blowing past people! So unfair! Cheater! Rui is a cheater chat!!! CHATROOM CHEETOR!!

Tapping his own Cyclizar, the dragon let out a enthusiastic yelp as it bolted after the other. Oh the looks the two were getting as they zigzagged through the streets and out into the wilderness of Paldea, following the dirt roads away from the city.

Finally, catching up to her, Ryu would playfully puff his cheeks out at her. Before sticking his tongue out!

"You can't just take off before someone says go Rui!" Ah, but wait--

"Ah, don't reply to that, not until they're done running! Ya might bite yer tongue if yer not use to this!!"

[amaryllisrei]

The girl opened her mouth to bite back a retort, but quickly reconsidered at his warning, shutting it tight again. She was not a cheater, she seethed, glaring down at the dragon beneath her who, for a moment, grinned innocently back before focusing on the path ahead again. She was going to give this monster a piece of her mind later, she promised. You already have, it seemed to say, but she ignored it.

To her sides, scenery passed in a blur, moving in and out of her vision within seconds, but Ryu's dragon kept up pace with little effort. Small pokemon skittered away into the grass and treelines as they approached, kicking up a trail of dirt and mud. The ground was still wet from last nights rain.

Rui didn't know how much time had passed, but when they finally arrived at the wetlands, her back and bottom were sore as hell. Barely able to dismount, she stepped into a puddle of muddy water with a yelp. "Oh, Arceus, I should have worn boots," the girl sulked, looking down at her now muddied sneakers. Great thinking, Rui, go to the wetlands during rainy season, that would be fun and great, and not at all dirty and disgusting and humid and uncomfortable, she internally scolded, sighing in defeat.
