Of Wealth and Adventuring

Lady Rose carefully adjusted her sunhat as she approached the laboratory. The Auditoré region had much more wilderness than her heavily industrialized homeland, so she was going to need a Pokémon to defend herself. She wasn't too keen on the idea of using pets as weapons, but if she was gonna survive out here, she would have no choice but to submit. She briefly checked her makeup for faults before knocking gently on the lab door twice. Then, she took two steps back and waited, nervously fidgeting behind her back.

(Where is your character profile?)

"Why hello there. Are you here to get a pokemon?" a calm voice asked. It came from a young man, looking more like a trainer than a professor. "My name is Professor Adams. Come in, please." He opens the door and steps out of the way.

"Oh.... um, hi...... yeah, I suppose........" Lady Rose mumbled, surprised by the man's youth. Accepting the man's invitation, she stepped into the laboratory. She closed the door behind her and examined her surroundings. Remembering her purpose, she turned to the Professor. "Could you........ show me to the Pokémon please?" she asked, unsure of what to do.

"Why of course. You may read the posters, or you may use this Compute Pad to easily bring up their info," he said, handing Lady Rose a pad like thing. "By the way, would you happen to be Lady Rose?" he asked.

"Oh..... goodness me, I forgot to introduce myself, didn't I" Rose stammered, beet red. "Please excuse my discomposure, I was just expecting somebody..........." she apologized shyly. Idiot.... she cursed to herself, taking the pad. She tapped the surface of the pad familiarly with two fingers, waking the device from its electronic slumber. After a brief loading screen, an image of three Pokéballs appeared on the screen. She tapped the ball in the center, causing the screen to slide into a picture of a large, spherical platypus-like water Pokémon. She scrolled down, revealing a brief description of the pokémon and its capabilities. Rose repeated the process for the other Pokéballs and came across a picture of Leficloa. She smiled at the picture, reminded of a species she had seen in the Mansion Pond.

"I've decided." She said to the professor, pointing to the image on the pad's display.

"Alright," Adams said, going to grab a pack. As he walked back, he grabbed the Laficloa pokeball. He gave everything to Lady Rose. "Here you go, m'Lady," Adams said, being nice. "Also, I got word that you don't want an egg from my lab? I pass out eggs to almost every trainer who starts their journey here..."

(I'm bumping this, if you'd like to RP civilly then you can go ahead and do that)
