"Slowking? Hey, maybe he'll like mine. He's ninety one years old, you see... I'm from Azalea." Ota smiled at Owwin. He dropped the Pokeball containing Slowking; fond memories of the Pokemon passing through his memory. "... Slow..." the mighty, ancient, and wise Pokemon yawned.

"That is quite the specimen. Mine isn't nearly as old. My father hatched Solomon and introduced him to me when I was just a baby. We grew up together. He evolved the day I started my adventure. I had a leg up on a lot of the other trainers because of him. But what he lacks in age, he makes up for in experience. He has traveled the world with me and helps me do my research." Owwin admired Ota's Slowking, he seen few pokemon older. Even some legendaries were just descendants of the original legends. "Speaking of research, what made you want to start chasing Celebi? For curiosity's sake."
EDIT: Solomon studied his elder for a moment. He yawned out of respect, and uttered a low "King.." that seemed to say. "Pleasant to meet you Herr Slowking."

VIolet held her camera and gasped. "You.. Augh!" She grabbed the Rotom, and hugged it. She took a few pictures of the Rotom, and grinned. "Sorry for getting pissy" She said to Ota. "Its just, phew, that camera costs SO MUCH. I saved up forever" She flashed Ota a smile, and watched him talk to Owwin.
She spotted a trainer walking toward where the gym was, she ran up to him, leaving Ota and Owwin to discuss being researchers.
"Heya" She said to him, giggling at his Golem, who was rolling alongside him. She snapped a picture of the trainer and his Golem. "You gonna challenge the gym leader? Jasmine's tough. I used to be friends with her in school, but she's been too busy with her gym and being famous lately"
She rolled her eyes, and took another picture of the trainer.

 Zephy groaned when she noticed the gym sign's steel motif and apologized to Bulbasaur as she slipped him back into his Pokeball. "Sorry bud, you'll have to sit this one out."
She leaned against the wall of the Gym, tossing Infernape's ball up and down in her hand as she waited for the gym to vacate with the rest of the hopefuls. She'd often thought about Sinnoh, the region of its origin, and long wanted to go there to meet more strange and extraordinary Pokemon. Maybe she finally would very soon - a million Poke buys a lot of things, after all.
She watched a resolute-looking man wade through the crowd surrounding the Gym as if they weren't there, stopping only to have a few photos taken, and gripped her ball tighter in her hand when she saw the Golem trailing behind it. She'd never seen a Trainer so serious about his work - what if the whole region were full of career Trainers? For the first time, she put the allure of the cash prize aside and honestly wondered if she had what it took to win that tournament after all.

Ota flashed a smile at Violet; he'd catch up with her later. "Very interesting... Well, you see, Celebi has become my obsession, because it is what let Slowking live so long. You see that jewel there, on it's crown?" he said, pointing at the green jewel that had replaced the pink one. "It is said to be the embodiment of time; second to only Dialga. If I can catch Celebi, I'll have access to time travel! Think of the research possible!" he said enthusiastically.
Ota kept a close eye on Violet; he still felt a bit indebted to her for smashing her camera.
Slowking yawned again, looking at it's colleague. "I see we are of the same species." it communicated telepathically.

Hashire flinched upon seeing a flash of light, and instinctively pulled the brim of his Fedora over his eyes. He always found himself not very photogenic. Just then he was addressed by the photographer. After enduring a few more camera flashes, he answered her question.
"I Surfed down here all the way from Sinnoh thanks to Leviathan, my Gyarados. I came here to win the Johto League and hopefully earn some recognition back home. Especially from... nevermind, that's not important."
He thought about his recent purchase and resumed the conversation.
"From what I've researched, locals don't reach here until about halfway through their journey, but now seems as good as any to take on Ms. Jasmine since I'm already here."
He continued up towards the Gym, ignoring the mass of sightseers that had gathered around the Gym. By the side of the building, another person caught his attention though. He noticed she was a trainer herself, and was looking back at him while gripping a Pokeball. He wondered what kind of competition he would face as he and Golem entered the Gym.

The man's eyes met hers as they passed, but only for a second. Zephy looked away - she knew the rules and she had brought so little Poke that losing outside would be an embarrassment in more ways than one. Instead, she fiddled with her purse straps and coat buttons till he was gone, then released Bulbasaur again from its ball. She folded her bulky overcoat on the ground and instructed him to wait with it; he sprawled out on it, enjoying the late afternoon sun.
She adjusted her hat and joined the crowd surging into the Gym, taking up a position at an empty arena and murmuring some last-minute words of encouragement beltward. She hoped her Pokemon's knees weren't as shaky as hers, or she'd be in for a rough time here in Johto.

Lady Psycho Sexy ((People who need her can play Jasmine in different color font, OR we can look for someone to play as an NPC. Hmmm.

I'd voice her in my battle, but I'd either make it too dramatic (anime) or too simple (game))

Owwin did like the idea of how much could be done in such a short period. "So long as you use time travel as only an observer, and you make sure not to alter time, there are things out there that not even multiple lifespans can ready you for." Owwin looked at his Poke'tch. "I'm sorry to rush off, but I am here on business, perhaps we can meet up later, you and your friend from earler can meet me for a bite to eat, we can talk more, it'll be on me." Owwin turned to his slowking. "It seems that Solomon has talked to your Slowking telepathically, so they have resonated, it won't be hard to find you, nor you me. I will talk to you later." Owwin returned Solomon to his pokeball, and headed for the Anne to meet Professor Bristlecone.

Hashire looked around inside the Gym, noticing that beyond the door there were few people inside, which worked in his favor. He scanned around and followed a small hall into a large metallic arena. Inside, a young woman emerged from a small observatory section of the room. She slowly walked down to the arena. She was simply dressed, wearing a light blue dress and sandals, with ornaments in her hair that held it up in two separate bunches. When she got to the ground floor, Hashire issued an official challenge to her Gym. She responded in a soft but determined voice. "Please allow me to introduce myself. ...I'm Jasmine, a Gym Leader. I use the Steel-type. I... used to train Rock types until the Steel type was discovered. Do you know about the Steel type? They are much more sturdy than Rock types."
"Um... I don't know how to say this, but good luck..."
"M-may I begin?"Hashire noticed the seating around the arena began to contain a few spectators. He couldn't see if the two trainers he noticed before coming in were there, but right now his focus was on the task at hand.
"By all means, the first move is yours."

Zephy noticed the gym had fallen much quieter than a minute or two ago, and looked around for the source of the hush. The Gym Leader had made herself available, and the Trainer she had seen outside was posing the first challenge. She stepped out of the arena she had claimed and joined the group gathering around the main one, letting Infernape out of his Pokeball and instructing him to watch - closely.

(Warning: There will be anime logic in the battles due to in game battles being quick curbstomps in favor of the player. Also, Choice Items. And if I stop posting mid battle, I got cut off since it's Wednesday. If it happens, just assume I won.) "Very well then, the first move is mine."A serious expression befell her face as she reached behind her and pulled a Pokeball. Hashire wondered where she kept them, since she had no visible belt, purse, or anything aside from her dress really. But he banished the thought for another time."Magnemite! Let's go!"She tossed the ball to the field and in a bright blob of light, her Magnemite appeared. It spun it's coils in anticipation for the battle it was about to have.
"ElectroSteel I see. I myself have a Magnazone back home from my trip through the Sinnoh League. And if there's anything I learned from working with it, it's that it hates opponents like this!"
Hashire looked back at Golem and pointed toward the arena.
"Golem! Storm the field!"
Golem rolled thunderously into the arena and came to a stop on it's designated side, staring down the single eye of it's opponent.
"Ladies first.''"Magnemite! Sonicboom!"Magnemite let out a shockwave from it's coils. The wave crossed the field quickly, but Golem just tucked into a ball and took the hit.
"Golem! Earthquake!"
Golem leaped into the air while still balled up, and slammed down with tremendous force. The shaking knocked Magnemite off it's magnetic balance and caused it to come crashing down painfully, out of commission.
"That couldn't have been a serious attempt, Ms. Jasmine."
She called back Magnemite to its ball.
