Jazlyn had finally done it. She had arrived in Cheyenne and was ready to take on her new adventure, her new life. Upon reaching her destination, she was told that something strange was afoot--a region-wide power outage. And thus, the local Pokémon Lab was closed for the time being. A friendly citizen directed her toward the Ranger Station and told her that she would be getting her first Pokémon here.
As she approached the fork in the road ahead, she spotted a sign bearing two arrows. One pointed toward the lab, and one to the Ranger Station. Jazlyn turned in the appropriate direction and continued down the path, wondering what she might see ahead. She expected some sort of huge, fancy building, all lit up with lights, like the skyscrapers of Celadon.
What she found, however, was a large tent. Jazlyn approached it cautiously, slightly unsure if she had even gone to the right place. "Um...hello?" she called as she came closer to the tent opening. "Is there anyone here? I was told to come here to get my first Pokémon."

::starly:: Ranger Edward + Batman
"Hello. I'm Batman." At first, Bruce the Ranger emerged from the tent with a cold stare. Robin was perched upon his shoulder, his ever so trusty Starly that was full of wit and speed. The pair stood boldly before the girl, looming over her with their observant stares.
"Oh! Oh! Oh! Can I be your sidekick?!" A very creepy and disturbing high pitched voice laughed as he emerged from the tent. This Ranger was clad in a uniform, unlike poor, delusional Bruce in his Halloween costume. Edward snickered as his hand delicately rubbed against the muscular man's back, almost shuddering with joy at his fellow Ranger's fearful trembling.
Bruce sent the girl a pleading look, or perhaps a warning one as he elbowed Ranger Edward out of the way. "This is my job. I was here first." He growled, staring with a hint of disgust at the skinny, yet tall man. That creepy grin of his did not waver in the slightest, and Edward instantly grabbed Jazlyn's hand.
"My dear, I will be his trusty Pokémon and grab you your future starter. I will be off!" He winked at her. Oh god. Then frolicked into the tall grass, apparently trying to get this poor girl a starter. Bruce only glanced at her as if to say 'I'm so sorry' as he handed her an Ultra Ball. What was it for? Well, she was going to find out.

If finding a tent instead of a glamorous giant building was a surprise, what happened next was a completely mindblowing revelation.
A man clad in some sort of black superhero outfit approached and introduced himself as Batman. Jazlyn blinked. "H-hello...I'm Jazlyn," she stuttered. These Pokemon Rangers...were they superheroes? Maybe that was why they had their own station, it was their base of operations! And they probably busied themselves all day with doing super heroic things like working on fixing the blackout, and if they had some free time they would help out the new trainers.
Of course, this little made-up story was shattered the moment the second man appeared. Jazlyn immediately decided that she did not like him one bit. She watched the exchange between the two Rangers with wide-eyed confusion, which was magnified tenfold as the strange man suddenly grabbed her hand and winked at her. No one had ever done such a thing to her before and she quite frankly wasn't sure how to react. She could only stare after him blankly as he headed off into the grass.
The Batman Ranger soon caught her attention, however, as he held out an Ultra Ball. Jazlyn took it from his hand and looked at it, running her fingers over its smooth surface. This was it--she was about to meet her first Pokemon.

"...The devil is coming." Batman announced, not reacting as Jazlyn took the Ultra Ball from him. At her delicate touch, the sphere enlarged, apparently ready to capture whatever it touched. Pokemon wise, at least. It seemed to lack any effect on humans besides activation. Robin shuddered in fear as Ranger Edward emerged from the grass with a terrified Hoppip in his hands.
<Help...me...> It whimpered, squealing in fear as the man hugged the adorable cat like creature to his chest. Now wasn't it the cutest, most sweetest thing ever?! It's tail flickered violently back and forth, clearly eager to escape from his grip.
"Batman, lookit! I didn't even need to hit the thing with a rock. It was just flying in the air and woosh! I caught it." He laughed proudly, holding the Hoppip out for the girl to claim. Well, throwing the Ultra Ball at it would've been a better idea.
"Your starter pack." Batman ignored Edward's obvious acts for attention as he handed the girl her starter pack, and one a piece of paper was scribbled down the Hoppip's attacks. One look at it, and he knew what it most likely had. Synthesis and Splash, at least. But added at the end there might be something else as well.
You get: ::hoppip:: HoppipLevel: 5 Gender: You Pick Abilities: { Chlorophyll + Leaf Guard } Attacks: Splash, Synthesis (make sure to read the attack rules), Double Edge Personality: You decide. x 5 x 3 Pokedex x1

It wasn't long before the strange man reappeared, squeezing a Pokemon in his arms. It was a Hoppip. Jazlyn was overcome with a multitude of feelings at this moment. First of all, she had to save that poor Pokemon from the terrible man's grasp. She held out the Ultra Ball and pressed the button on its front, causing a beam of light to shoot from the sphere toward the little Grass-type.
She knew that Hoppip wasn't the most powerful type of Pokemon ever, or at least not at the start, but she was still happy to get her first Pokemon. Jaz was sure that her new friend would gain strength over time.
"Batman" handed her a starter pack full of items that would surely be useful. Jazlyn turned back to the two Rangers momentarily, and offered a small smile. "Th-thank you," she told them, happy that they had at least taken time out of their lives to help her out. And with that, she turned to leave the Ranger Station and head out on her proper first steps of the journey.
