Welcome to Gaia! ::

Zhira's ears perked at the sound of a sweet tone, eyes finally cracking open. Seeing the miltoic made him perk his head with interest, and especially at seeing the small teen next to the large pokemon. With a small purr, Zhira slid off from Hatch's shoulders and sauntered on over. "Meowth!" he purred, nose lifting to sniff curiously at the other pokemon, clearly unperturbed about the large size.

Hatch looked over with surprise when Zhira made his move. "Zhira! Don't wandoer off so-!" His brow rose when he saw where his meowth was headed. Was that..? He hurried after his pokemon and smiled. "Hello, again," he said to Mako, a hand running through his hair. "A see Zhira didn't forget you." He also looked to the trainer next to Mako and smiled politely, uncertain of disturbing to pair.

Gormlaith kept the smile on her face but inwardly grimace since apparently she was known for her Volcarona. Kobold... nasty little bug. Why she still had him... well normally she would say it was beyond her but she knew why she kept him. He was a contest winner and was good for her cover.

"Hello Jorge. I'm Gormlaith." She said smoothly, "It certainly is nice to see a familiar face even if we only know each other in passing. I'm hoping Vanadis does as well as Kobold. I've been working on a routine for her but we've hit a hard spot in it."

Her eyebrows arched up when Jorge leaned in and asked about the pokemon that had drawn such a crowd. "I don't really know anything other than it's supposed to grant immortality. I've even heard wild rumors that it was an experiment gone wrong from one of the criminal organizations but that can't be right..... right? Did you hear anything that sounds more true?"

Vanadis was returning the stare and her tail was starting to bush up. She wasn't too happy about this pokemon staring daggers at her for no reason at all. Before she could do anything about it she was picked up.

Gormlaith noticed that Vanadis wasn't handling being near the Vaporeon well and picked her up. She gave her a soothing pet on the head before turning her attention back to Jorge.

Magnolia gave her a few clueless blinks and shrugged a shoulder. "Okay," she muttered in reply, not noting that it wasn't Ai that would be the one to wander off, but herself. Her thirst for adventure wouldn't be halted even when in with the legendary, even though it was an honor, it and of itself, to have a Mew favor her company. It warmed her a bit and pushed thoughts of James and Rho off to the side. It still irked her, however, that those two didn't share the same wanderlust she had.

She fell quiet upon hearing that Rhei bared the same name as Ai. Was it a small world or simply a matter of coincidence? She tilted her head, curious, but not enough to start pressing questions.

Asphodel waved a tiny palm at the Mew and puffed her cheeks out. "" she cried in the legendary's direction again. "" Suddenly, she reached up and bopped him lightly on the nose. ""

(( ICly change to be note of: Asphodel's telepathyness will be cut down to simply communication between her and Illia from here on out, but you can happily here her chirp, "Ral, ralts!" like a yappy pup because she is still utterly chatty, haha~))

"Chaaaaaandelure!" Desdemona shrieked at the Zigzagoon darting around beneath her. Her flames rose higher, and her amber eyes glowed ominously. The Chandelure was as enthusiastic about haunting this sunny field as she ever had been about the old villa in Alto Mare.

Juno looked down with distaste at the stray Pokémon. She was tempted to kick it away, but, much as she wasn't interested in making friends, sworn enemies would be of no help either. Instead, she simply huffed and looked around for the creature's owner.

The tall woman raised an eyebrow as a rustic-looking girl approached and apologized for the Zigzagoon. "Yes, very well," she replied testily. "Kindly stop it from harassing my Desdemona."

Sunny was extremely embarrassed. She picked up Heidi and turn her so they were looking eye to eye. " Heidi you know better than to try to take things that is not yours and not to bother other Pokemon no treats for you today." Heidi looked down unhappy and looked away from Sunny. "Now stay quiet and be a good girl."

Sunny put Heidi she sat there and watched the ghost pokemon she had no longer any intrest in its shinyness, Now she thought of it she had other ghost to play with at home that were friendlier. Sunny now looked over at the other trainer she looked very beautiful the complete opposite of her. "please forgive us for bothering you Heidi just excited when she sees shiny things. I think it is a side effect of her ability pick up. She is harmless but has a lot of energy."

Niko was not paying attention to anything else except for his Pokemon. Before he knew it, large heavy paws pushed him from the back and he toppled forward, his palms and face landing in the tall grass as he tried to stop his fall. "haha oh heyyy," he greeted the playful Growlithe with a pat on her head after rolling onto his back. "Where's your trainer?" He asked her.

Piko heard his trainer's laughter and flew back to him to see what was going on. He did not land and remained in the air as he flapped his wings up and down. "Pi - ko," he chirped. Master what are you doing?

Niko grinned as he felt a lick on his face. "You're a social one aren't you?" Again, he patted her head and watched her leave his side when a little boy appeared into view shouting at the Growlithe.

He got up and dusted his pants with his hands. His heavy backpack laid in the grass like a rock, unmoved, and he picked it back up again while slinging an arm through a strap.

Joey and Lily. he repeated their names in his mind. Bits of grass fell out of his hair as he greeted the young trainer with a wave of his hand. "Don't be sorry, she is so friendly that Lily of yours. "

Niko held out an outstretched arm and watched his Togekiss perch onto it for a few seconds before he flew into the air again, not being comfortable with the new surrounding. He shrugged and dropped his arm back to his side. "I'm Niko, Niko Lukas. And that is Piko," he greeted back pointing at the curious bird. "Did you hear rumours about this place too?"
