Adeleine ruffled her dress as she walked past the sign that said "Ranger Station". She didn't really have much a choice, considering the power must be out at the lab. She reached into the bag on her side, and pulled out a book. She began absentmindedly reading some of the text outloud.
"One thing was certain, that the white kitten had nothing to do with it-- it was the black kitten's fault entirely..." She finally arrived at the tent, and peeked her head inside. It certainly was very...rural. She wasn't exactly used to it. She called inside rather calmly.
"Excuse me, are any rangers here that could assist me? I'm in need of a pokemon, please." Adeleine's eyes didn't move from her book, she continued to read while waiting on someone to give her their attention.

He was back. Damn it all, he was back. After his encounter in the Power Plant, he needed some time to regroup. With the power out in the lab where he usually hid, he had no choice but to slum it outside in the tents, with the buff burly men who gave him weird looks.
Stomach churned as Syl's thoughts drifted to Sen - sure, she was fine now, but every time he closed his eyes he saw her get hit again, over and over, like a bad black and white movie on repeat. He had failed his mission, left his grunts to rot in an unwinnable war, and worst of all retreated to hide. What kind of leader was he anyway? There was a sinking feeling in the pit of his stomach, rage and sorrow mixed with crippling fear.
Syl shook his head, clearing his mind of those kinds of thoughts, and locked eyes with a girl peeking inside the tent flap. Hand flew to his eyes, wiping away bitter unapologetic tears, and he faked a smile.
"Y-you're here for a pokemon?" Syl stood, red hair loose around his shoulders. Ordinarily he wouldn't care about the Ranger station, after all what was a professor without his lab? But anything to take his mind off his troubles.
"Follow me," brushing past her and walking outside, he beckoned for Adeleine to follow. Syl waded waist-deep in a very tall clump of grass and waited.

What the hell was Syl doing there? From out of a tent, a ranger came out. Well, floated out after them. Behind him followed an alakazam. It seems he was the one in charge between the two of them. The trainer looked dazed and soulless, like a puppet without strings, doing the bidding of his Pokémon.
"What are you doing here?" asked the trainer in a monotone voice. "You're not a ranger." The alakazan had an evil glint in his eyes as he controlled his ranger, making him move over to Syl, feet never touching the ground.
"Go away!" That was the only warning Syl got before the Alakazan attempted a confusion attack on the redhead. "Let rangers do their jobs." The pokemon wasn't going to allow this professor to ursup him of his job. Syl belonged in the lab. This was ranger territory, and the Alakazam in particular did not like professors all that much.

<Eh? What's this?> A sweet, childish voice appeared from above the ranger tent, feeling a kind, nurturing sensation from the sun that shone above it. There were several funny looking things down below the Castform, and they weren't things he saw often. It was only the first time it wandered this far away from home, but it needed the adventure! The fun! The lulz!
<Hi goofy.> The Castform was very interested in Syl's bright red hair, something even more noticeable than Rosie O'Donald walking in a field of green with a bigass red coat. That was pretty hard to miss, if you haven't noticed. Finding its perch quite comfortable, the Castform rested itself on Syl's head, completely oblivious to the situation going on around it.
Except. What was that weird wave?! It was so bright. So vivid. So intense. The Castform was deathly terrified of it. Screaming, it hid right behind Syl, leaving him to take the attack. Only occasionally peaking from behind him to see what was going to happen.
Someone should... idk...catch it?

Adeleine widened her eyes, she hadn't expected a red-haired man to greet her. He didn't look like one of those rangers in the books she read...maybe it was a new look? She put her book back in her bag, and quietly followed him. It was a bit awkward, the tension in the air was making her a bit unsettled.
Suddenly, a real ranger popped out and attacked the red-headed man. Adeleine gasped, she wasn't really sure what was going on; it probably wasn't good. Adeleine backed away, she instinctively knew this wouldn't turn out well.
She glanced over; a ranger, a person, and a Castform. Wait...a Castform? There was a Castform behind the red-headed man. It was sort of cute.
"So cute...but what in the world is going on?" Adeleine quietly whispered to herself, but favored keeping quiet to wade things out.

| [atrb=width,270][atrb=valign,top][atrb=background,http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u247/reesix/vaaa/sylbg.png] That was enough. Ready to scream, Syl's face was ashen and his mouth was tight, expressionless eyes meeting the Ranger's. "I didn't see any Rangers on duty," tone flat, Syl reached for a pokeball and threw it. A scizor with armor the color of mustard emerged, flexing it's finely toned muscles under the hard metallic coating. "This is your job, is it? How silly of me, and here I thought we paid you to read nudie magazines and dress up in stupid costumes - yes I've seen 'Zubatman' or whatever the fuck that abomination is supposed to be," despite the harsh words, his voice was carefully controlled and steady. Yellow eyes ringed with red, Syl wasn't in a bargaining mood. The Scizor kept an eye on Alakazam, readying a Night Slash should it try anything on his trainer. It wasn't that Zero was particularly fond of Syl, on the contrary, but Syl's survival was essential to his training regiment. Who else had access to such high-leveled opponents? With his luck, upon Syl's demise he'd get stuck with some little girl who wanted to use him in contests. Feeling something on his head, Syl snatched a pokeball faster than he even knew he could and tapped Castform with it. "Kid," he dumped Castform's pokeball in Adeleine's hands, "there are bags of items inside the tent. Be a good girl and pick out a pretty one for yourself," eyes never left the Ranger, the slightest hint of a smirk returning to his face. =============== Castform was capturedGender: You decide Attacks: Tackle, Ominous Wind Level: 5 You also get a starter pack: x 5 x 3 x1

::Alakazam:: The Alakazam was not amused. This professor had just... stolen his job! He had just taken the pokeball and caught the castform! That was not how it was done. The trainers were supposed to do that, to allow them to try it out in case they've never used one before. Syl did not understand the whole mechanics of giving out a starter.
But the pokemon wasn't stupid. Alakazam were known to be smart, and he could see that the Scizor was really strong. So the Alakazam used a quick Kinesis, bending his spoon to distract the steel pokemon while he used his mind power to make his ranger try and kick the blasted professor in the nuts, where it'll hurt.
Hopefully that would teach the redhead to pretend to be a ranger. He wasn't welcome here.
Alakazam used Kinesis Alakazam Ranger used KICK.

Adeleine was...very unsettled by this display. He really wasn't a ranger...but he did catch a really cute pokemon for her. She didn't complain, and she grabbed the pokeball and a bag of items. She felt a bit awkward, so she shuffled towards the flap that served as the exit. She turned around, and gave the man a smile.
"Thank you, good sir, have a nice day." Adeleine walked down the pathway back where she came, finally able to adventure.
