The sun shone down on New Bark Town in the morning.
It was the last gasp of summer before autumn in September, the traditional time for rookie trainers to leave home on their journey.
Jakku mumbled something in his sleep and rolled out of bed tiredly, not entirely aware of his mother's insistent calls. He hastily changed, grabbed his pre-packed rucksack, and left for the Elm Pokemon Lab on the outskirts of town, after a quick breakfast.
 
Early in the morning a boat from Sinnoh had dropped Tye off in Lavender, it was then a short walk to Saffron. Then the magnet train ride brought him to Goldenrod, he then took a bus to New Bark...

---------

Tye got off the bus at a stop only a block or two from the Professor's Lab. "Finally, after going all this way I can finally just deliver this stupid package for Professor Rowan" The boy muttered to himself and sighed, he patted his laptop bag which was containing the parcel. "At least it got us out of that boring little town" Tye grinned as he looked up to the Chimchar that sat on his shoulder. "And I never would have met you, your potential was wasted with him...I checked them all...you were the strongest. So prepare for some hell when it gets down to training" Tye chuckled a little and began walking toward Elm's Lab...
 
"Oh, green world..."
Jakku sang as he circled the town, walked in the windmill-filled fields towards the lab.
He was in a good mood, and it was a nice day.
He'd double checked he had all of his gear, and was rushing now, from his excitement to finally start his journey.
 
After casually strolling for a while, Tye was slightly lost. "Maybe I should have paid slightly more attention to Rowan while I was picking you out" he grinned up to his Chimchar. Tye found a boy walking around(Jakku), the boy obviously knew where he was going. "Hey you!" He called after him somewhat bluntly. Tye caught up and began to walk along side him. "Do you know where Elm's Lab is?" Tye asked akwardly, not wanting to sound stupid. He didn't want anyone to think he had any flaws...any weakness...
 
"Hi."
Jakku said cheerily.
He stumbled as he spoke, and had to steady himself.
He adjusted his rucksack, and continued.
"I'm Jakku, Jakku Ebansu. I'm on my way to Elm's now.."
Jakku said proudly.
"Wanna come? What's your name?"
 
"I'm Tye, Tye Taylors" Tye replied...his voice didn't get to friendly but it was still a "better" tone. "And sure...I need to know how to get there" Tye strode along with Jakku.
---------
Chimchar looked at the new boy in an odd way...
 
Jakku noticed Chimchar.
"Hey..."
He said, smiling.
He stopped and rummaged in his pack.
"Want a Fire-Type Pokeblock?"
He asked, trying to be friendly.
 
"Can't have them...he's on a training diet" Tye said as he looked up and patted Chimchar's back.
-------
Chimchar sighed and refused the pokeblock but signaled a "Thank you"
-------
"Don't go soft on me" Tye scolded slightly...
 
"Better to be polite than picking fights everywhere."
Jakku thought aloud.
"My dad used to have a Typhlosion like that. It was terrible..."
He focused back to reality.
"Here's the lab!"
Jakku said happily as they reached the old building, heavily modified with wind turbines and scientific equipment.
 
Tye knocked on the door. "Well lets hope the Professor is happy to see his errand boy" He mumbled.
 
"Hm?"
A middle-aged man in a white lab coat opened the door.
"Oh, hi... Are you the kid Rowan sent?"
He enquired.
Jakku poked his head out from behind Tye.
"I'm here to start my journey too Professor!"
Elm rolled his eyes.
"Well, you'd both better come in."
 
"Yeah, don't sound to thrilled" Tye said sarcastically. "I've got your package, what's in it anyway?" He drew the box from his laptop bag. "It must be important, the Professor told me to protect it and tell no one where I was going or what was in it...but I could be wrong" Tye mumbled out.
 
"Yeah, Rowan does that."
Elm took the box, and put it in a safe in the other side of the room.
"Well, er, you want to start your journey, right?"
He asked boredly.
"There are Pokedexes and Starters on that table. I have research to do."
Elm put his hands in his pockets, and left the room.
Jakku watched him leave.
"wow... he's..."
 
"Yeah, exactly why I wanted to get out of there and didn't want to run that errand..." Tye sighed and took a national pokedex out of his pocket. "I've already got one...you should go get yours" Tye turned and began to stride towards the door...because he was not to thrilled to be hooked up with his new "traveling buddy". Something tells me I am going to have to deal with this guy for quite a while longer.... he slightly sighed and continued to walk towards the door.
 
Jakku looked at the desk.
He took a Pokedex, then released his chosen starter.
"Hey Totodile, would you mind travelling with me..?"
He asked politely.
"Toto..."
The Totodile ignored Jakku, and walked over to examine Chimchar.
"Hey!"
Jakku yelled.

OOC: Gotta go sleep. Feel free to RP the professor if the others come on and you want to progress. <3

Chimchar dropped off of Tye's shoulder to meet the incoming Totodile. This caused Tye to have to stop and wait at the door. He leaned up against the wall next to the door in a pose that made him look quite bad ass. "Champ...fine but only a few minutes" He casually called the Chimchar by his name.

-----
Champ ran over to the Totodile, he was slightly hostile of other pokemon that he didn't know. Tye had taught him to keep his guard up, and this was the cause for his hostility. Despite the slight tension the Chimchar uttered out: "Hi"
 
"Huh? Morning already?" Noa Alor said, groggily. He sat upright in bed and glanced at the small analog clock sitting upon the bedside table. It read 9:30 a.m. "Better get a move on." Noa commented. "Don't wanna be late." He pulled on a t-shirt and a pair of tattered jeans. Adjusting his hat on head, Noa woke up his companion, Oshawott. "C'mon, buddy. We gotta get to the Pokemon Research lab!" Noa told him. "Oshawott!" the water-type cheered. Noa grabbed his backpack and left the keys to the rental cottage he had been staying at on the kitchen table. "Let's go!" he cried, bursting out the door and running towards Elm's lab.
 
...
Totodile watched Champ closely.
As he made to approach her, she blushed, and leapt onto Jakku's shoulder, hiding in his hair.
Jakku looked up at her.
"Huh. Pokemon are weird. Ready?"
He said bluntly.
 
Champ:

Champ tiltied his head in confusion, "You ok?" he asked with a smile. "I've never met a Totodile before" as he moved closer.
--------
Tye:

Tye looked up to his Chimchar and then the Totodile...but still continued to stay in his bad-ass leaning pose next to the door. They seem to get along...does she like him?... he snickered...he had seen this before... If only there was a girl for me....but then again...I can't be distracted from my main goal...
 
I... um... I...
Totodile concealed herself again, after poking her head out from behind Jakku.
Jakku rolled his eyes.
"Shall we get going..?"
He started to walk, sending Totodile flying off his head.
She blushed, and ran to catch Jakku.
