[ wherever you are in luceti, you're being approached by a girl on horserapidash-back. she looks pretty tired, but determined. ]

Excuse me. Could I ask for your assistance?

... Oh, and would you happen to know if there's a hotel nearby?



[ note: Platina is looking for empoleon and lopunny. feel free to have your character find them or have shenanigans 8) ]

[infinitegrin]

But we can help you find a good room! If you want help.

[leadinglady]

[ lady is right! but ??rooms without hotel services?? ]

That's strange... but of course! I would definitely be interested!

[infinitefrown]

[well, if you end up on ingo and emmet's (and cilan's) floor, they make dinner in the shared kitchen every night....... is that a hotel service gfdkj]

Well-- it's mostly regular residencies... [So it's not too strange...?] But yes.

Ah... and you are a Pokemon trainer, correct? [So they'd want to place her near the others!]

[infinitegrin]

She can stay near us, Ingo. You cook too much!

[Ingo totally doesn't but he should recognize that subtle verbal nudge JUST GO WITH IT]

[leadinglady]

I am indeed a trainer, though I've only found rapidash so far.

[ just... looking between the two curiously. but she misses Diamond and Pearl banter, and can't help but smile a little. ]

I appreciate the offer! My name is Platina. It's Mr. Emmet, right? And... your brother?

[infinitefrown]

[shsdfj emmet... fine, fine.]

I am Ingo. A pleasure to meet you, Miss Platina. [He touches his hat brim politely.] We were searching for Emmet's Pokemon, ourselves; perhaps we could search together as well? Unless you'd prefer to find a room first.

[infinitegrin]

Either will be fine - we'll be happy to help you!

[Emmet does a fancy little bow because little lady you are absolutely adorable.]

We could help you set up in an apartment, or you can join us as we look through the forest!

[leadinglady]

[ oh my god you guys are so classy I love classy so much ♥ ]

It's a pleasure! And a room could wait. Finding the rest of our teams comes first!

[infinitefrown]

[they will end up as back-up bodyguards at this rate]

Right, then. Shall we?

[So they'll just-- lead her Rapidash?...]

[infinitegrin]

[Each one taking either side of Rapidash! Nothing looks better than perfect symmetry, after all.]

What Pokémon do you have on your team, miss Platina?

[leadinglady]

[ s... sparkling yes she could get used to back-up bodyguards like you guys. continuing through the forest~ ]

If it's true that we only keep three, I'll probably have to look for empoleon and lopunny. What about yours?

[infinitefrown]

Hm. [Empoleon... and lopunny. Okay, he can keep an eye out.] Sinnoh-native Pokemon...

[infinitegrin]

I have a wide variety of Pokémon! Have you been to Unova yet, miss Platina?

[leadinglady]

I haven't. I'm from Sinnoh, but I'd like to visit one day...!

[infinitefrown]

I see. [Very good, very good. VISIT THE SUBWAY WHERE YOU GET THERE--] Well, with the lack of other Pokemon around this station, it shouldn't be too hard to recognize them as such despite not knowing what they look like. Hopefully either of your Pokemon shall turn up soon...

[infinitegrin]

Yes! We'll find your Pokémon, miss Platina. You needn't worry!

[He's poshing up his talk, mostly to goof off.]

[leadinglady]

Thank you. I'll definitely keep an eye out for yours, too!... But, now that I think of it, I don't know what kind of pokemon live in Unova at all.

[ wow am I a terrible excuse for a researcher or what. ]

[infinitefrown]

[emmet that kind of speech sounds so weird coming from you]

Ah. Not many Trainers here seem to, so you're not alone in that. [No worries.] Unova Pokemon vary pretty widely, like all regions... but for Emmet in particular, he trains a number of Bug- or Electric-type Pokemon.

However, if you'd care to see an example, I have my Pokemon with me.... [He'll let Chandelure out of its pokeball to drift beside them.]

[infinitegrin]

And I do have Galvantula!

[Out comes giant fuzzy spider!]

I'm not that surprised that you don't know what Pokémon are in Unova, since it is overseas!

[leadinglady]

[ she beams at the two pokemon, itching with ~scientific curiosity~ as rapidash sniffs chandelure a little. HELLO THERE FELLOW FIRE-TYPE. ]

Wow...! They do look a lot different from Sinnoh's. Perhaps they evolved differently... I'm sure Professor Rowan would know for certain.

[infinitefrown]

So you work with a professor, then? [Interesting-- so does Miss Crys!

Chandelure is interested in rapidash as well!! Hello hello! :> your flames are nice and shiny.]

[infinitegrin]

Must be interesting, to research Pokémon all day long!

[leadinglady]

It is. I did quite a bit of field work. But it seems like the fauna here in Luceti is much different!

[infinitefrown]

Different indeed, if perhaps.. less stimulating. [He looks up at the trees in search of a lackluster squirrel or bird. normal animals < pokemon]

[infinitegrin]

It is, but it seems so fragile!
