She had been told that there were two ways to get her first Pokémon. The Lab where she could choose from various types, or the Ranger Station that was a risk but could give surprising results. Sumi had never been much of a risk taker, liking to be in control...so the Lab it was. She really had no idea what to expect, or what would happen...but she hoped when she left she'd finally have a Pokémon of her own. For her whole life she had dreamed of having her own Pokémon to train and bond with. This was her way to start the journey of becoming a Trainer. This was her new beginning. She was excited.
She sighted the Lab ahead and her heart gave a nervous jump in her chest. What if she was turned away? No, no they couldn't do that...could they. She had to stop being so negative! Taking a deep breath she bounded forward, not able to wait anymore. Without even knocking she swung open the door and stepped inside. It was warmer in here, and instantly she calmed down. This place gave off a welcoming feeling, and she wondered why she had been nervous in the first place. "H-hello?" she voiced out, standing still in her place by the door.[/style] |

The professor raised an eyebrow when he saw the girl barge in, but he saw her shiver and realized that she had no bad intention but instead just wanted the warmer air in the lab. He turned around, putting his book down as he looked at her and gave her a big smile. "Hello there. The name is Winter, what is yours? And where are you from?" He asked gently. He wanted to make some small talk first before he helped her, that way he had a better idea of what she would want.

At first she didn't even notice him, until he spoke.
Winter...Professor Winter. She remembered hearing the name on her way here when asking for directions. Even though he greeted her kindly she still felt very intimidated. He was well known in this region, and here she was barely knowing anything about him. He must be like most Professors though right? Gulping loudly she took a few steps forward and smiled softly. "H-hello, I'm Sumi!" she paused trying to not sound so shy. "I've traveled from Goldenrod City to start my journey as a Pokémon Trainer." She kicked her foot lightly on the ground, not sure what else to say. "I hope you can help me, I'm really not sure what to do first." Would he just give her a Pokémon? Or would she have to go through some sort of trial? She had no idea, all of this was so new to her. Perhaps she should have studied first...but it was too late for that.[/style] |

-----THE LAB !
Once names were exchanged, Sumi felt like less of a stranger to the professor. He gave her a friendly smile, taking in the blush on her cheeks from running around. She looked like she needed to catch her fleeting breath, so he gave her a few moments to calm down. He was all too familiar with the fear that many new trainers possessed, having gone through something similar himself many years ago. "You came a long way. I hope you enjoy your stay in Cheyenne." He reached over to pluck a pamphlet from the counter, feeling as if this was the best way to educate a potential trainer. "The only hard part is picking the Pokemon you want. Take a look at this list, and let me know what you're interested in." He hoped she didn't have high expectations of this lab, since she seemed completely bewildered about the experience.
He had to admit though, the Lab was rather intimidating. The lobby was the most casual of the rooms, having a haimish atmosphere to resemble a house. Assistants wandered around in comfortable clothing, only wearing their lab jackets when they went into certain rooms in the back. "Larvitar is the rarest of the bunch, but one of the hardest to train. Sandshrew and Turtwig would be the best for new trainers." He decided to start it off there, hoping to give Sumi more of an idea of what she was looking at. "Litwick are known as being quite mischievous. Some of our Zangoose have attitude problems, but they're very cunning." He continued on and on, rambling as he gave Sumi a chance to pick one she liked.

This wasn't as scary as she thought...she'd have to stop letting her imagination go crazy. She nodded and smiled at his mention of her traveling so far. It had been a long time, and she was so far away from home. Yet she felt that Cheyenne would be an amazing place to be in. So far it had been good. Soon, she hoped, it would get even better.
She carefully took the pamphlet he handed to her and looked at it curiously. Inside was a list of many Pokémon of different types and sizes. They each had a nice illustrated picture and information on each Pokémon. Her amber eyes widened as she scanned all the various choices. How would she ever choose? She was so concentrated on the pamphlet that she barely heard what the Professor said. She did catch a few different Pokémon and how they would be. But when she heard Zangoose her ears perked.
Zangoose! She frantically flipped through the pamphlet until her fingers paused on the page for Zangoose. Her mind suddenly brought back memories of sneaking onto her Mother's ranch. There had been an old Zangoose staying there. The poor thing was ignored by the other Pokémon because of his sour attitude. Sumi had tried to befriend him, and it took many failed attempts. But after awhile the Pokémon had warmed up to her. Not long after that an Elderly couple came and adopted him. They would be a good home for him...yet she always missed him dearly.
She had never expected to be able to get one as a starter. She took a deep breath, flipping through the other pages to make sure. Yet she always went back to the Zangoose page. She knew it was risky taking one as a starter. Since they could sometimes have bonding problems. Sumi knew it would be hard, but she'd try her best. She knew this would be the right Pokémon for her. She just knew it. Her heart began beating hard in her chest as she handed the Professor back the pamphlet, still opened to the Zangoose page. "I'll take that one please!"[/style] |

::zangoose:: LEVEL: 5 ABILITY: toxic boost TYPE: normal ATTACKS: scratch - leer - quick attack - double kick He took the pamphlet back from her with a smile. A Zangoose? Not the first time he'd given one out to a new trainer, but Zangoose wasn't the most popular choice right now either. That honor belonged to Larvitar. Winters was glad she hadn't gone with that option. Not that he minded giving the fiesty little Larvitars out, they deserved a good home too. But he had started to subconsciously judge every trainer who came in and immediately asked for one. He favored those who went a slightly less conventional route, with something a little different. Winters took up one of the Zangoose balls and placed it into Sumi's hand gently. "There you go, and let me get a starter pack for you. Take a second to bond while I find one." He glanced behind him towards a rather messy part of the lab. He walked over there and began shuffling through boxes, trying to find a complete starter pack to give to Sumi before she left on her journey. Unfortunately it wasn't going to be easy... might take a few minutes.

She watched as he went over a picked up a Pokeball. Her insides were twisting and she felt like she was about to run around the room screaming with joy. This was it, this was finally it. When he placed the Pokeball in her hand it still felt unreal. Was there really a Zangoose in there? Was it truly hers? Taking a deep breath, she listened carefully to what he said. Bond with it? Yes...she should. That's when the nerves came again. What if the Zangoose didn't like her? What if he rejected her? She almost wanted to slap herself for being so negative. She should be happy just to have him...not be scared of what will happen.
She waited until he left to go get her a starter pack, then got down to the business at hand. "You can do this, come on, you have to meet him sooner or later!" She whispered quietly to herself. "Z-zangoose come on out," she said a bit louder. In the next moment a red light shot out and in it's place was the large Pokémon. It looked confused at first, then turned to glance at her. They stood there for a few good moments, neither of them seeming to know what to do. "Hey there...I'm your master now," she said slowly, trying to sound friendly and warm. "My name is Sumi, I hope we can be great friends."
The Zangoose looked at her for another long moment, as if figuring out if she would be a good trainer. Then suddenly out of no where he pounced forward, knocking her over. She was afraid he was attacking her, but to her surprise she felt the wet sensation of him licking her cheek. With wide eyes she looked up at the happy looking Zangoose. "I take that as a yes?" she said smiling. She knew right then and there, this was going to be an amazing journey, and she had a great companion by her side now. [/style] |

When he came back he saw the girl on the floor with the Zangoose who began to link her cheek. The two were smiling and very playful around one another which was a sight he loved to see. He gave back to the scene with a big smile in his face as he put down the trainer pack and decided to leave the two to their own fun and games, trying not to bother them in their bonding experience. He was happy she was able to find one she really liked, and he was also glad the Zangoose was able to get a trainer who looked so supportive for him. And even best of all, he liked that the two got along, that was all that really mattered anyways for people who started their journey. In the pack was also a note. If opened it would read Thank you for stopping by in the lab. I hope you like your pokemon. The first route is a little further down the right of here if you exit the building. Good luck in your future endeavors!
