((Heh, sorry xserenityxninax, this is supposed to be a private roleplay between me and Kyuuketsuki_Kisu, the moderator moved it to the fan based bit =/ ))

Today, Thales was also going to be getting his very first Pokemon! At last. Had his family not decided to move earlier in the year he'd have gotten one of the Pokemon from the Sinnoh lab. But as it was.. he was having to choose from the Kanto ones. Not that he was complaining, he'd been told about the three Pokemon by a friend and had already made up his mind as to which he was going to have.

Charmander. The fire lizard. Now fire Pokemon weren't usually his cup of tea, but as it was, he'd fallen in love at first sight. So to speak.

Having woken up early to prepare himself for the day ahead, Thales was ahead of the game and the first to arrive at Oaks lab. Suitable travelling clothing had been picked out too, a loose t-shirt and a jacket to go over the top, light blue jeans and a pair of light brown walking boots. Over his shoulder sat his backpack, crammed with everything he thought he'd need for his adventure.

As he approached the lab, he noticed another male stood just outside with a rather large Arcanine sat at his side. "I was wondering whether you'd show up." Thales spoke with a grin as he approached the familiar male.

Caelius looked up after hearing the males voice, a brow arched. "You honestly think I'd miss this?" Pushing away from the side of the building, the male approached Thales, scarlet eyes resting upon him. "You'll finally be able to play with the big boys now." Ruffling his friends hair, the raven haired male turned on his heel and started towards the lab doors. "Your first here too, so you'll get first pick."

Arcanine stood and followed his trainer to the doors, there they waited for the Professors Aide to answer the door and let them in. Thales followed his friend, trying to straighten out his once perfectly preened hair.

Once the Professor had stopped speaking, Thales was shown three Pokeballs and asked to choose the one he wanted. It didn't take long for the male to choose. Charmander, as he'd wanted. Just as he'd picked the fire Pokemons ball up, the doors burst open, sending the nearby aide into a fluster as she went to greet them and scold them for being late.

The two twins were soon approaching the remaining two Pokeballs and did not fight over who had which. The instantly picked up a Pokeball and seemed pleased with their choices. Had they chosen which Pokemon they wanted before hand, like he had done? That seemed like a likely answer. Thales looked to the one that had asked him about his Pokemon. "Yes, I did." Charmander was his, though he hadn't released the Pokemon yet and introduced himself. "I don't know, I was planning on leaving after I'd picked my Pokemon. My name is Thales, who're you?" As he asked the question, he released Charmander and watched as the Pokemon stared around the room at everyone, before her large eyes fell upon her new trainer. Bouncing on the balls of her feet, the Charmander waved at Thales.

Caelius stood to the side to observe all three of the Pokemon and their trainers. The Pokemon were all young and had very different personalities. The Squirtle appeared to be quite aggressive and didn't like his trainer. The Bulbasaur was skittish and tried to hide himself in his trainer as soon as the Squirtle started to attack. The Charmander didn't seem to notice the other two and instead was holding his tail, showing it to Thales. Arcanine sat beside Caelius, watching the Squirtle attacking its new trainer with a look of amusement - well, his ears were lopsided, a sign that Cael had come to learn meant that the Pokemon was amused.

((Well, this was fun. Since its been over a week I'm gonna go ahead and unsubscribe. Bye.))
