A Well Traveled Path Premise:There are many reasons to travel through the world of pokemon, many adventurer's young and old have dreams that they seek on fulfilling with their partners. Every journey has a definitive beginning and end, everything in between is a long road, filled with obstacles, twists and turns, decisions and challenges, but at the end of that road is every traveler's dream. Setting:The Laboratory of famed pokemon professor Gary Oak, roughly twenty years after the events of the anime. The professor has just finished wrapping up a seminar about capturing and training pokemon. The talk was targeted at newer trainers, coordinators and breeders, but a significant number of more experienced adventurers and their pokemon have also arrived to seek the professor's advice. The professor is currently occupied handing out pokedexes and starters to new trainers preparing to challenge the league. Additional NotesFor this particular RP I'm looking for a mixture of older and newer trainers, as well as coordinators and breeders as characters. The dynamics between experienced trainers and new trainers adds a whole new level to the RP that is seldom seen by the RPs where everyone is put on the same level.

Rules:
- Obey Gaia ToS.
- I expect at least semi-literate, avoid one line posts and *asterisks*
- Anti-munch project is in effect.
- Base your battling off of the games, but use common sense. I don't care how hard your machop can karate chop... it's not hurting a steelix... ever.
-Decide the outcomes of your battles beforehand so that the battles don't take billions of posts with no decisive victory.
- PM all profile applications to me.
- PM any questions or concerns about this thread to me.
- No interactions with Legendaries... PERIOD

"...lastly, I would like to thank all of you for coming to hear me speak, remember what's important, ambitions change, but your pokemon will be your partners for life."
The Professor nodded and gestured to the youngest members of his audience seated in the front row of chairs,
"Those new trainers who have their ID cards, but have yet to recieve their pokemon, please follow me through to the next room. The rest of you feel free to mingle, and enjoy the complimentary food, I'll be back shortly."
He said motioning past the impromptu rows of folding chairs, towards a plastic folding table that held a coffee machine as well as assorted bagels, pastries, and the like.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As the professor led the kids who were just starting their journey into the next room, the pokemon trainers in the room began to converse with each other, some bragging, sizing each other up, other's shared stories, and greeted old friends and rivals.
Fulgrim made his way through the crowd to the hot water, and poured himself a cup of coffee, and grabbed a jelly filled donut inside a napkin before heading back into the crowd to socialize before the professor returned.

Mal set Apollo down and stood up to stretch before heading towards the table full of food, his beloved companion following behind happily. "That was an interesting speech, wasn't it buddy?" Mal asked, picking up two bear claws and handing one down to the small lizard.
Apollo growled his approval before immediately biting into the pastry, almost swallowing it whole.
"Woah! Slow down there little guy! You'll choke!" Mal grabbed a cup and filled it with some juice, then handed it down to Apollo. "How many times do I have to tell you to chew your food?"
Apollo rolled his bright green eyes and took the cup. His trainer could be such a worry-wart sometimes. He watched as Mal swiped two more pastries for them and some napkins, then began to head back to their seats, eating the rest of his bear claw and downing his beverage. The sweet flavor tickled his tongue, and he couldn't help but let out a soft hum of enjoyment. It wasn't often that he was allowed to enjoy human food. But today was a special day. It was the anniversary of the day that he and Mal first met.

Danny followed the crowd, squeezing himself through the doorway along with the mass of other trainers.
Looking around quickly, he realized that he knew none of the other trainers in the room, and this quiet fact further impeded on his mindset that he wasn't important.
In this case, he wasn't a distinguished enough trainer to be known by others. He only traveled the Johto region, and looking at some of these other trainers, they had probably been to at least two regions, maybe more.
Sighing to himself, he slowly walked, hands in pockets over to the refreshment table and poured himself a cup of juice, not really hungry at the moment.
He looked around again, wondering what the professor would have to say when he returned from giving out new Pokemon.

"Ugh. i hate crowds. they are ridiculous. i wish i could just get out of here. but, it was nice listening to oak." *Mycah thought to herself. she then pushed through the crowd and got outside. she took a deep breath of fresh air, and walked to the nearest poke'mart. Then, she stopped abruptly, and decided to walk back in the lecture room, because she was hungry. after she made it to the snack table, she grabbed a glass of apple juice, and then grabbed some barbecue chips to share with Cynder, who she let out of her poke'ball and they sat on the edge of room. Cynder took the bag and dumped out most of the chips in her talons, then handed the rest to Mycah, causing her to glance up at cynder and laugh.*

"PLEASE! PLEASE! NOT IN THE LAB!" A flustered assistant was weaving in and out of the crowd attempting to get trainers to return their larger pokemon to their pokeballs. His attempts were relatively fruitless as a Torterra burst forth in a flash of light accompanied by a low rumbling growl.
Although pokemon had begun to appear left and right, the lab still contained roughly the same amount of movement as much of the audience began filing out, satisfied that they had seen and heard what they came for.
Fulgrim made mental notes of some of the crowd, familiar faces he had seen at various tournaments, big names from television, trainers that he had no idea who they were, but possessed a certain charm or air about them. As he bit down onto his donut he heard a slight click, and a brief sliver of light shot directly towards his feet. His Shadow took on a purplish hue and grinned up at him. "Curious about what's happening?" he asked rhetorically to Konrad who had begun to rise up out of his shadow.

*the assistant, in her rush, ran into Cynder, and she looked up at the blaziken and let out a slight wimper. Cynder looked down curiously, then turned to mycah, who said* "Dont worry. Cynder doesnt bite. she just looks intimadating!" *the lab assistant nodded and hurried off. Mycah looked at cynder and they both laughed. Mycah then said* "well cynder, you are pretty big, so i guess its back in the pokeball." *cynder was withdrawn, and mycah began to look for friends or rivals, to no prevail.*

"Jeeze. You'd think people would show a bit more common sense in here." Mal sighed as he watched a Torterra burst forth from its poke'ball. The place was crowded enough as it was. Releasing bigger Pokemon would just make things worse. "Come on Apollo. Let's get outside before somebody decides to let out a Wailord...."
Apollo growled his agreement and began to follow Mal out into the open air, tossing his paper cup into a waste basket on their way out the door. The fresh air felt good in his small lungs. Apollo had always preferred open spaces over cramped areas, and he couldn't be more thankful that Mal hardly ever made him go into his pokeball.

(Can I pleaseeee participate? 4laugh )
Sara had been rushing to the Professor's laboratory. She frantically pushed through the crowd who were making tons of noise. She had her Feebas next to her, and she hurried to abruptly open the door. To her great dismay, the starter Pokemon were gone.
"Great, just great..." Sara muttered. The professor was fixing a broken Pokeball and saw her. He smiled and greeted her.
"Sorry, there's hardly any Pokemon here- Hey, that's a Feebas!" the Professor exclaimed. Sara smiled proudly.
"Thank you professor, she was a unique catch. She's not strong enough to battle, but have you ever seen her amazing move?" Sara exclaimed. "Feebas! Use Hypnosis!"
Feebas eyes turned deep and hypnotized a nearby worker, who had fell asleep.
"That is a rare Feebas that you caught there." Professor nodded. "Well, I'm sorry Sara but there isn't really any Pokemon you can take. There is only one, but she's pretty stubborn to handle. She's a bred Pokemon so you can have her." He went over to a Pokeball and tossed it; an Eevee appeared. Sara was awestruck by its cuteness.
"Eeveeee!!!" Eevee cried, having innocent eyes. "Aww, it's so cute! How can she be so hard to handle?" Sara picked her up, and Eevee burst into tears. Sara was aghast. "Hey, what's wrong? Why're you crying?"
She felt flustered by the crying and hugged it. Eevee then bit her as hard as she could. It was so painful Sara nearly dropped her.
"Like I said," Professor said flatly. "She's not very bright. It's hard tending her since she's so distrustful of humans. She used to be a stray but I found her and took care of her, but she still doesn't trust me. That was her Fake Tears she gave you." Feebas smiled.
Sara smiled weakly as the Eevee growled at her, with an intimidating look on her face rather then the cute one she had before. Sara tried hard to make friends with the Eevee, but it just didn't trust her. It seemed to trust her Feebas, who she liked to play with. It was night time, and Eevee looked with interest at the moon as she stopped biting Sara. The luminous moon glow and the stars glimmering in the blue velvet sky.
"You like that, huh?" Sara smiled at her. Eevee nodded slowly. Sara was silent for another minute, then asked, "Eevee, how did you feel when you were abandoned?" Eevee was quiet; it didn't try hurting Sara this time. It just looked at the sky in thoughtfulness. It looked sad, and a real teardrop trickled down its eye. Sara was so touched by this that she hugged it but more gentle, and Eevee didn't fight back, but snuggled in her arms in comfort.
