Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kuroda strolled into the pokemon center with Wrath, his Charmander by his side. They had been training in the dragons den for about two straight days. Kuro's clothing had been scorched and torn in a few places and Wrath was covered in small cuts and bruises. The duo made their way to the counter, nodding to the young lady and her Xatu as they did. Wrath then jumped onto the counter top so that he could see what was going on. A few moments later a Blissey approached them with a tray for his pokeballs. He then took his other two pokeballs along with Wrath's off his belt and placed them into the tray and returning Wrath to his ball. "See you in a little bit buddy." He said to wrath's pokeball as he placed it on the tray and handed it to the blissey. The pokemon quickly took the tray into the back room to heal them for a few mintues. Kuro decided to engage in conversation-- or at least try to --with the young lady he was standing next to. "Ice Path?" He said referring to her being soaked from what he could only assume could have been melted ice, seeing as it wasn't raining outside.

"There's a possibility that you may have stumbled upon that pokemon's nest. That, or it was really territorial." Kuro stated with a slight smirk as he was ambushed by Wrath, who had been healed already, lunging off of the counter top and latching onto his shoulder. "The name's Kuroda, and this is Wrath." He said as he pointed to the small Charmander on his shoulder before extending his hand out to shake hands. "If you'd like to gather those herbs still, We'd be happy to assist you by keeping those pokemon busy."

"It's a pleasure to meet you Nanami." He said with a smirk as the blissey returned with his other pokemon. Kuro took his pokeballs off of the tray and attached them to his belt, sliding the tray back to the blissey afterwards. "..And it wouldn't be a problem at all. I was planning on training a few of my other pokemon today anyway." Wrath slid off of his trainer's shoulder as he was talking about training and sat down on the floor, leaning against Kuro's leg as he waited for them to get out of the pokemon center. "Let me just withdraw a few more pokemon from my PC and I'll accompany you." He said as he slid down the counter to the PC. "Lets see...I'll bring you...and you." He said as he tapped two figures on the touch screen. In an instant, two pokeballs appeared at the transfer slot on the PC. Kuro quickly took the two pokemon he had withdrawn and placed them on his belt as well, as he awaited Nanami's response.

"Alright, lets go then." Kuro stated as he reached for one of the newer pokeballs he had just received from his PC and lobbed it forward. In a flash of radiant white light appeared a rather large Ursaring. "This here is Soren, She'll be helping out with the wild pokemon issue." He said as he ruffled her fur a bit. Soren let out a slight growl to her trainer as he did so, signalling for him to stop. "haha...She has her moments, but trust me when I say that she'll watch our backs." Kuro then made his way to the door, Wrath and Soren following right behind him as he made his way out to the streets of Blackthorn to wait for Nanami and Xatu.
