Chapter 3: Trial and Error

Masterlist

3rd POV…

“Yuu, are you paying attention,” Yuu’s math teacher asked. Yuu was currently looking out the window having a weird feeling in their gut.

“Yes, I am paying attention,” Yuu responded, turning their attention back to the front of the class. The teacher nodded their head at Yuu and continued on with the lesson.

“Hey, you alright,” Yuu’s friend had whispered to Yuu, slightly leaning over the aisle. 

“I have this weird feeling,” Yuu whispered back, turning to look bak out the window. Their attention was brought to a cherry blossom tree that was slightly apart from the others. As Yuu focused more on the tree, the more their friend worried about them. The tree had turned colors and lighting appeared to strike in front of it despite not having any clouds in the sky. Yuu shook their head and went to focus on the rest of the lesson. Yuu had fallen behind in school while being stuck in Twisted Wonderland, and now they have to try their hardest to catch up to everyone else. Yuu was grateful for their friends that shared the same classes with, the group study sessions have helped a lot.

“...And they were really spacey during math class…” Yuu snapped out of their thoughts and saw that they were sitting at a cafeteria table with their friends.

“Welcome back to the land of the living,” one of the friends greeted. 

“Sorry, I was just really out of it,” Yuu apologized.

“See, this is why I said you shouldn’t have come back to school after just getting out of the hospital,” Yuu’s male childhood friend sighed. He’d been taking care of Yuu and watching them since they were cleared to leave the hospital.

“Takeda, I’m fine,” Yuu assured, but they could tell that he wasn’t buying it.

“Henchman, you need to eat some food,” Grim stated with food in his mouth. The hospital had made Grim Yuu’s ‘emotional support animal’ so he was allowed to be with them at all times. Grim got along great with the friend group and tried to keep his destruction down to the minimum.

“Yeah, some food might help,” Yuu agreed and began to eat the food they had gotten.

……

“Good morning, everyone,” Akari called out from outside the sleeping quarters. “Are any of you up? Quite some lighting last night, wasn't it?”

“Why is she so loud,” Leona groaned, barely waking up.

“We have to get up Leona-san,” Epel said. “We have the trial to prove that we can stay here.”

“He’s right,” Silver agreed. “We wouldn’t want to be late.”

“Never thought that you would be awake, Silver,” Leona dryly chuckled as he sat up and yawned.

“I wanted to make a good impression,” Silver explains. “Also I was taking a walk around the village just to get a proper look at it.”

“I hope you are all awake,” Vil pounded on the outside of the door.

“We are all up, Vil-san”, Epel replied. Leona had gotten up and put on his clothes from the day before since no one in the group had any clothes except for the ones they showed up in. Leona’s group was the last to make it out of the sleeping quarters.

Akari gave them a nice smile when she saw them exit the building, “What lovely weather we’ve got!” She turned her attention to everyone, “I hope you all had a nice sleep, even if this land is strange and new to you.”

“I slept like a baby,” Lilia commented and Kalim laughed.

“Let’s get to headquarters,” Akari suggests. “Captain Cyllene is waiting, then after we can go to The Wallflower for breakfast before the trial.”

“Yes, let’s get this over with,” Idia sighed, not wanting to be outside. The group followed Akari to a large fainted orange building. The building was two stories tall with some scaffolding alongside the building, as it was being worked on by some of the villagers. Inside the building, the flooring was a red carpet with the village's logo in the center of the lobby area.

“The Survey Corps’ offices are here on the first fl⎼” Akari introduction to the building was interrupted.

“Don’t give up! Keep those eyes open,” the voice that interrupted exclaimed.

“The wild Pokemon, they…” another voice could be faintly heard. “They were everywhere. Attacking from all sides… I sent out my partner Pokemon, but… against a whole pack… Outnumbered…”

“This is what happens when you go so far afield,” the first voice scolded. “But the Medical Corps will put you to rights.”

“That man’s with the Security Corps… and even with his own partner, he took a beating from wild Pokemon,” Akari explained. “Without a partner Pokemon of your own, you might find this trial…particularly trying.”

“So those little guys from yesterday are that dangerous,” Floyd questioned.

“Maybe, but we don’t exactly know for sure,” Jamil responded. “Maybe it depends on the type of Pokemon.”

“Captain Cyllene,” Akari called out as she moved across the lobby to the open office. “The group is here.”

“You may enter,” Cyllene says as she looks up from her paperwork. Her desk is covered with various books, and rolled sheets of paper. Akari and the group enter the room and Cyllene gets up from her chair to walk around to the front of the desk. “Let us get straight to it. If you wish to join the Galaxy Expedition Team, prove yourself capable by going out into the Obsidian Fieldlands and catching three different species of Pokemon: Bidoof, Starly, and Shinx.”

“Catching three Pokemon from the start,” Akari’s jaw drops. “No one in the Galaxy Team has ever managed that…”

“Did these strangers not catch three different Pokemon only yesterday,” Cyllene countered. “My trial should be simple enough for them⎼if the professor wasn’t exaggerating things, that is.”

“He didn’t exaggerate anything, Captain,” Deuce defended the professor, but Cyllene ignored him.

“The Galaxy Team does not have the means to provide for those who only take without giving,” Cyllene continued. “If you wish to stay, you must prove beyond any doubt that you’ll be an asset to our cause. I will lend you some Survey Corps satchels to carry whatever you may need in the field.” She then passed out satchels that the group had put on.

“That satchel doesn’t exactly match your, er, mode of dress…” Akari observed.

“Well obviously,” Vil mocked. “These uniforms shouldn’t be matched with something so plain.”

Akari,” Cyllene got Akari’s attention. “I’ll expect you to step in if anything goes awry.” Akari nodded her head in understanding.

“Pardon the intrusion,” Laventon entered the office. “New friends, come with me for a moment!” The group and Akari followed Laventon out to the lobby. “Now then, a jolley good morning to everyone!”

“Can we get on with this,” Leona grumbled.

“We need all the information we can get,” Ruggie sighed. “Just suck it up for now.”

“Is something the matter, Professor Laventon,” Akari questioned.

“In order to complete our Pokedex and, well, simply survive in this unforgiving land…” Laventon started to explain. “These guys absolutely must pass this trial! And as a professor of Pokemon, I’ve got just the ticket to help accomplish that!” Laventon tosses up three PokeBalls and the Pokemon the group had previously caught came out of the PokeBalls, “I am gifting you these three Pokemon to help your chances of success during the trial skyrocket.”

“That’s awfully nice of you,” Kalim smiled. The Pokemon looked at the group, recognizing them from yesterday and went towards the three people who caught them. Rowlet flew up and landed on Rook’s shoulder, Oshawott walked up to Azul, and  Cyndaquil ran up to Silver.

“I’ve never seen Pokemon react that way to seeing people,” Akari gasped. She had slightly stepped back from the group.

“I truly have great faith in you all,” Laventon praised. “With a Pokemon partner of your own, you’ll be able to fight off wild Pokemon outside the village! You are also able to give the Pokemon nicknames.”

“Nicknames, huh,” Silver muttered, looking down at the Cyndaquil at his feet. 

“Let’s focus on the trial first before nicknaming any Pokemon,” Riddle suggested.

“A word of advice, new friends⎼,” Laventon paused slightly. “Pay close attention to which PokeBalls are empty and which ones contain a Pokemon when you’re out in the field! By the way, what species has Captain Cyllene charged you with catching?”

“A Bidoof, Starly, and Shinx,” Kalim cheerfully answered.

“Well, that’s smashing! All three of those species can be found in the Obsidian Fieldlands,” Laventon smiled. “Let me give you some PokeBalls to use during your trial, then.” Laventon handed Kalim 20 PokeBalls. “These PokeBalls may be handcrafted, but they work great, as you’ve already seen!”

“I guess you’re all finally ready,” Akari inserted herself back into the conversation. “You’ll have to leave the village for the trial. Turn left after you exit headquarters, then head for the gate.”

“We’ll be there,” Vil said.

“What about breakfast though,” Ruggie whined.

“Maybe she forgot,” Epel slightly questioned.

“I think we should stop at The Wallflower just to get something light to eat,” Ortho voiced his opinion. The rest of the group agreed and left the headquarters.

……

Location: Outlands of Obsidian Fieldlands

“That person Volo was quite strange,” Malleus voices his thoughts. 

“I agree,” Vil nodded his head. “To almost come out of nowhere and demand a battle out of us was not a welcoming experience.”

“Good thing Rook stepped up to take the battle,” Trey sighed.

“Chouette de chasse(Hunter’s owl) and I do make a pretty good team,” Rook petted the Rowlet that was on his shoulder.

“I thought I said to not give the creatures nicknames,” Riddle fumed.

“Ah, but Roi des Roses, I couldn’t help myself,” Rook confessed. “Especially after how well we battled together!”

“It’s incredible though that the Pokemon are able to level up and learn new moves,” Lilia looked at the Pokemon that was happily following Silver. “They do seem to be quite intelligent.”

“Maybe people fear Pokemon since they aren’t able to communicate with them well,” Cater wondered out loud.

“How much longer is this going to take,” Idia complained. He certainly did not appreciate all the walking. 

“Based on the map, we have about 2 kilometers left before we reach Obsidian Fieldlands,” Ortho answered.

“We should find a Pokemon that you could ride on,” Kalim jokes.

“That’s actually not a bad idea,” Jamil muttered.

“The nature is beautiful,” Jade commented, he was looking at the greenery as the group walked by.

“It doesn’t seem like another village is anywhere in distance,”Jack observed. “And I don’t smell any other people around.”

“How old fashioned is this world,” Ace sighed. “We’re lucky our phones still kinda work.”

……

Location: Obsidian Fieldlands

“So this is our base camp⎼the last safe haven before you reach the wilds,” Akari explained not to soon after the group arrived. “For your trial, you must catch three species of Pokemon: Bidoof, Starly, and Shinx! Are you ready to get started?”

“As ready as I’ll ever be,” Leona answered with a yawn.

“Oh, Professor,” Akari exclaimed when she saw Laventon approach the group. 

“Ah, well, you see…” Laveton looked down with a somewhat sad look on his face. “Captain Cyllene got a hold of me after you all left… She impressed upon me that I bear full responsibility for whatever happens to ‘our sudden guests’.”

“That’s our merciless captain,” Akari shook her head, unsurprised. “But what help exactly can you offer out here, Professor?”

“My dear girl, I don’t intend to lift a finger,” Laventon answered honestly and Akari’s eye twitched. “Our new friends’ talents are the real deal. He’ll pass with flying colors⎼you’ll see!”

“He sure has a lot of faith in us,” Ruggie snickered.

“Ah,” Akari dryly smiled with her eyes closed. “So the responsibility for them still lies, in fact, with me, then. Well, I’m sure that they’ll be fine! Let’s begin with the trial!” Akari turns and starts to walk towards a dirt path. The group follows her, slightly concerned for her. She stops at the top of the dirt path and looks out over the land.

“This is Aspiration Hill,” Akari elucidates. “The species of Pokemon you’re meant to catch all live here.” Everyone looked out over the land and some spotted a small rodent-like Pokemon along the dirt path. “And along comes a Bidoof! Time to get ready to catch it. The key is to aim carefully. Not that you seem to need my advice⎼I’m just sharing what I know. Bidoof has a mellow disposition. That means it tends not to run from people, so this’ll be easy!”

“Hey Kalim,” Epel called. “Could you pass me a PokeBall?”

“Yeah, sure,” Kalim gives Epel a PokeBall and Epel walks down the dirt path to where the Bidoof was. Epel took a deep breath and threw the PokeBall at the Bidoof’s head. The PokeBall opened up and the Bidoof went inside. The ball spun a few times before the halo of stars appeared.

“You caught a Bidoof,” Akari cheered. “Well done, Epel! Now it’s time for the next Pokemon.” Epel went and picked up the PokeBall and placed it in his satchel. He caught up to the group who were looking at a small bird Pokemon. “There’s a Starly. They’re skittish little things⎼they’ll run if startled. But you should be able to get close to them if you crouch⎼you’ll be harder to spot!”

“Kalim, toss me a PokeBall,” Cater requested. Kalim tossed a PokeBall to Cater and he went to the patch of tall grass. He crouched down and got as close to the Starly as he could, then threw the PokeBall. The Starly went into the PokeBall and was easily caught. Cater ran up to the PokeBall and picked it up.

“That’s Starly caught as well,” Akari noted. “Only one more Pokemon to go.” They continued down the path. Ace spotted a wild leek that he picked up. “I forgot⎼there’s something I ought to teach you, since you’re still new to this! Throw your Pokemon’s ball at rocks⎼or trees like this one⎼to have it investigate. If your Pokemon finds any berries or other items, it’ll bring them to you! We’ve now reached your final hurdle: catching a Shinx.”

“Let’s go Cider,” Epel says as he throws Bidoof’s PokeBall at the base of the tree. The Bidoof comes out of its ball and climbs up the tree. A few moments later, it climbs back down the tree and gives Epel the berries it found, then it returns to its PokeBall and Epel catches the ball.

“That was something,” Malleus mumbled. He was very fascinated by this new world and the Pokemon that inhabited it. He was also excited to get some Pokemon of his own.

“There. That’s Shinx,” Akari points out a Pokemon a bit further down the path. The Pokemon in question gave out a roar. “Shinx has an aggressive disposition. Could you already tell that?”

“Not really,” Floyd said. “It looks squeezable.”

“Not to worry,” Akari smiled. “These things become clear once you focus on the Pokemon around you. Once aggressive Pokemon get irate, they’ll knock aside any ball you throw at them. Don’t worry, though! I’ll teach you the trick to catching aggressive Pokemon! You’ve got to battle them! Once they’re absorbed with battling, you can throw a PokeBall at them to try to catch them! By now, you’ve got several Pokemon of your own, don’t you?”

“You were there when we got the Pokemon,” Azul sweat-dropped.

“Take your Pokemon’s PokeBall and throw it near a wild Pokemon you want to battle,” Akari continued, ignoring Azul. “I’ve got no doubt you’ll hold your own in battle!”

“I’m gonna take a crack at battling,” Epel said, stepping closer to the Shinx. The Shinx noticed Epel and charged at him. Epel grabbed his PokeBall that contained his Pokemon and threw it at the Shinx. “Let’s go Cider!”

“I thought we weren’t gonna name them,” Riddle shouted in frustration. The wild Shinx had used Quick Attack on the Bidoof. 

“Cider, use Rollout,” Epel commanded. His Bidoof used Rollout on the wild Shinx. The Shinx had used Quick Attack again. Epel had his Bidoof use Rollout again.

“He seems like a natural,” Rook praised.

Ortho had taken a look at the Pokemon’s health bar, “Epel, you can try to catch it now.”

“Thanks, Ortho,” Epel thanked him. Epel pulled out a PokeBall that he had hidden in his satchel and threw it at the Shinx. The Shinx went into the PokeBall and moved a few times before the ring of stars appeared. The Shinx was caught. 

“You all approached those Pokemon without a hint of fear… and caught each one,” Akari exclaimed. “You’re like a gift from the sky dropped to us!”

“We did fall from the sky though,” Cater pointed out.

“With you at our side, I think the Survey Corps has a real chance of compiling a complete Pokedex as we’ve been ordered,” Akari cheered. “This is wonderful! I’m still curious why on earth you came falling from the sky like you did… but for now, let’s tell the professor we’re ready to head back!” The group walked back up the dirt path to the base camp where the professor was.

“I said you’d pass the trial with flying colors, and it seems you all went and did just that,” Laventon praised. “Congratulations, everyone! You’ve taken your first step toward seeking out every Pokemon! This calls for a commemorative photograph.” Laventon pulled out a camera and took a picture of the group.

“With skills like yours, I suppose this was a foregone conclusion,” Akari praised.

“Hey, weren’t you just bashing us,” Ace said.

“Ace, calm yourself,” Riddle scolded. “I see where you are coming from, but the trial is over now.”

“Whatever,” Ace mutters.

“Now then, we’d best report to Captain Cyllene,” Laventon states. “Time to head back to Jubilife Village, eh?”

“Do we have to walk all the way back,” Idia questioned.

“I brought Ponyta drawn carriages for us to ride back in,” Laventon smiled.

“Ponyta…” Silver lets the Pokemon’s name roll off the tip of his tongue.

“Come on, let’s go,” Akari laughs as she runs over to the carriages. 

“This is so cool,” Epel exclaims as he starts to run over to the carriages pulling Jack along with him. Deuce and Ace look at each other and run to catch up to Epel and Jack. The rest of the group walks behind the four first years. Once everyone is settled into the carriages, they take off back to Jubilife Village.

Chapter 4: Squeezing the Commander

Masterlist

3rd POV…

Location: Jubilife Village

“In time, you’ll be able to send Pokemon you’ve caught to live in the village pastures,”Akari explains to the group as they head through the gate that surrounds Jubilife Village. “You can bring up to six Pokemon with you into the field, in theory. Though we’ve never had anyone skilled enough to do so!”

“Come now, you two⎼let’s not dilly dally,” Laventon calls out from in front of Akari and the group. “Captain Cyllene awaits our report at headquarters.”

“I bet Captain Cyllene will be very pleased,” Akari tells the group. “You guys are currently making history!” Akari runs to join Laventon as they continue to walk to the headquarters building.

“Hey, Jack,” Epel calls the wolf beastman. 

“Yeah,” Jack answers Epel. The two fall back from the group heading to the headquarters building. Epel goes into his satchel and pulls out a PokeBall.

“I think you should have this Shinx,” Epel says as he hands Jack the PokeBall.

“Are you sure,” Jack asks.

“I’m sure,” Epel looks down, becoming bashful. “I stepped up to the Shinx to give it to you. I think the Pokemon would benefit from being on your team.”

“Thank you,” Jack thanks him. “You didn’t have to.” Jack puts the Shinx PokeBall into his satchel. They both fist pump and go to catch up with the rest of the group.

“So do we now get to nickname the Pokemon,” Cater teases Riddle. Riddle huffs, his face slowly turning red with embarrassment.

“Cater,” Trey warned.

“What I’m just asking,” Cater grins. “Besides, it’s not like Riddle is gonna use his signature spell right in front of the villagers.”

“Do we even have magic here,” Deuce had asked, he was slightly walking behind Trey and Cater. 

“Trey, you should use your signature spell next time we get food from The Wallflower,” Cater suggested.

“That’s a good idea,” Trey agreed. “Especially because it would be the least noticeable magic, in case any villagers would happen to be in The Wallflower at the same time as us.”

“Hey, let’s hurry up and go to the headquarters,” Riddle called Trey and Cater. They both look at each other then at Riddle.

“We still are walking at the same pace as the rest of the group,” Cater snickered.

“I knew that,” Riddle’s face began to turn red. The group walked up the steps to enter the headquarters.

“It seems we won’t leave you all to die,” Cyllene says as she looks up at the group entering her office. “Congratulations.”

“Thanks, Captain,” Deuce says. Ace looks at him funny and Deuce shrugs him off.

“You’ve all passed your trail,” Cyllene continued. “You can all hold on to that satchel. I must admit you’ve impressed me. I set a high hurdle to judge whether strangers like yourselves could be worthy, but you cleared it. This is yours⎼the official uniform of the Survey Corps.” Cyllene hands out Survey Corps uniforms and uniform sandals to the entire group. “Get changed in the rooms you used last night. Then you’re to report at once to the third floor. Present yourselves in uniform to our commander. This is your first official order from your captain!”

“Yes ma’am,” Malleus smiles. He was the first to leave, with Sebek and Silver behind him. The rest of the group filed out of Cyllene’s office and out of the headquarters. 

“I can’t wait to try this one,” Lilia crackled. Idia and Cater looked at Lilia with concern. The groups separated into their rooms and changed into the Survey Corps uniforms. They all met up outside of their rooms. 

“These don’t look that bad,” Vil sighed as he looked at this outfit. “And the material is of good quality.”

“They are pretty comfy,” Leona yawned. “Makes me want to take a nap.”

“Let’s go back to the headquarters,” Floyd cheered. “I can’t wait to show this off!”

“Look how well our Survey Corps uniform suits all of you,” Akari gushed as the group entered the headquarter’s building. “It’s almost as if the captain had it tailored just for you.”

“I see you’ve changed,” Cyllene observed as she came down the stairs. “Regarding your accommodations, you may continue to use the rooms you slept in last night. I had brought this for you all as well.” Cyllene had given the group a bunch of Survey Corps caps to go with their uniforms.

“Now present yourselves to the commander,” Cyllene instructed after she had approved of the uniform's completion. The group looked at one another wearily before filing up the stairs.

“Does anyone know where exactly we are supposed to go,” Idia meekly questioned.

“Since we are meeting the commander, doesn’t it make sense that we go all the way up,” Malleus answered Idia’s question with another question.

“To the top we go then,” Vil sighed. The group walked over to the other staircase to climb it.

“I have been waiting for you,” a voice booms as the group approaches the top of the staircase. The group enters the top office and sees a man wearing a black kimono with the bottom embroidered and a black gradient coat on his shoulders. His hair was slicked back. “I am Kamado, commander of the Galaxy Expedition Team! So, you are the new residents here.”

“Yes, we are,” Riddle spoke up. “It’s an honor to meet you.”

“I’ve been briefed on your situation⎼including how you fell from the rift in the sky,” Kamado stated. He had moved to where his arms were stretched out. “Now then… Let’s see what you’re made of! Face me in combat!”

“Now they’re speaking my language,” Floyd grins, as he steps up to Kamado. “I’m gonna enjoy squeezing you!” Floyd moves in to attack Kamado. Kamado avoids Floyd’s attack and flips him upside-down and tossed Floyd across the room.

“You’ve got vigor⎼I’ll give you that,” Kamado dusted himself off. “You need to work on your sumo technique, but I do see some potential…” Jade goes over to Floyd to help him up, both of the twins are wildly grinning and have mischief in their eyes.

“Don’t expect a warm welcome from everyone,” Kamado warned. “Naturally, some will be slow to trust an outsider who literally fell right out of the blue. The superstitious among us might see your arrival as a portent of disaster! But you passed the trial that was put to you. No matter how odd you may seem, you’re part of Jubilife Village now. Dedicate yourself to the work of the Galaxy Expedition Team, and complete the Pokedex! But I warn you all… Pokemon are terrifying creatures. Keep your wits about you as you work!” 

“Hey, can you all come back down to Cyllene’s office,” Akari poked her head into Kamado’s office. 

“They’ll be right down,” Kamado nods his head. “You are all dismissed.” The group went back down to Cyllene’s office.

“So the commander has also accepted you,” Cyllene observes. “But understand this… You begin as a No Star recruit among our ranks. In other words, you have no rank at all. Perform well as a member of the Survey Corps, and you will move up through the ranks.”

“Indeed,” Laventon agrees. “You see, the more you add to the Pokedex, the higher your rank will become. And working on the Pokedex will also, of course, bring you closer toward that goal of yours… to seek out every last Pokemon!”

“Here. You will need this,” Cyllene steps forward and hands Ortho something. 

“Downloading data,” Ortho says. “Reading file: PokeBall Recipe… A recipe for crafting PokeBalls from scratch. Download complete⎼sending file to everyone’s phones.”

“And ₽ 3,000 as well,” Cyllene handed the money to Jamil. “You will have to buy the necessary materials. Akari. You are an expert at crafting, yourself. Teach our new recruits what they need to know.”

“Of course, Captain Cyllene,” Akari accepts Cyllene’s orders. “ Now, as the experienced craftsperson here, let me explain a bit to start with. Crafting means making items with your own two hands. You can buy some items at the general store, but self-sufficiency is worth striving for! You can even make our most valuable tools: PokeBalls. Think where we’d be if we couldn’t do that! Let’s head to the craftworks.” Akari leaves Cyllene’s office. The group leaves the office as well.

“Now we can check that off our list,” Cater smiles. “That wasn’t too bad.”

“Did you see how the commander threw Floyd,” Epel asked with stars in his eyes. “That was awesome!”

“I can’t believe that happened,” Jamil sighed.

“I’m gonna go after the commander again,” Floyd stated.

“Let’s focus on the Pokemon first before picking fights with natives,” Azul says looking at Floyd.

“No fun,” Floyd whined.

“Well done earning a place in our team,” a voice congratulates the group as they exit the building. The group spots a lady with a blond strip in the middle of her hair. She was wearing a purple kimono with an apron around her waist. “My name is Anthe. I’m the local clothier. The professor asked that I ready you a change of clothes, so here you go! I do hope they fit.” Anthe had given the group Everyday Kimonos and Everyday Trousers. 

“Thank you so much,” Kalim smiled.

“You’re welcome,” Anthe smiled at Kalim. “I hope you’ll avail yourself of the village’s humble shops!” Anthe walks away from the group and Akari runs towards the group but stops with some distance between them.

“This way to the craftworks,” Akari waves them down like a madwoman. The group walks over to where Akari was and they all head over to the craftworks. “You can use the workbench here at the craftworks anytime you need to make an item in the village. And I’ll supply what you need to make your first PokeBalls once you’re ready to begin. Call it my way of saying congratulations on joining us! Just spend the money you got from the captain on clothes⎼or whatever you think is best.”

“So who’s gonna try crafting first,” Ace asked.

“Out of my way,” Leona growled. He approached the workbench after getting the crafting materials needed from Akari. Leona had decided to craft 10 PokeBalls.

Now that’s some fine craftsmanship,” Laventon smiles as he walks towards the craftworks. “Hard to believe this was your first time stepping up to the workbench, my boy! You’ll recall, of course, that Pokemon possess the odd power to shrink themselves down. With the PokeBalls we craft, we can make use of that power to catch them! All so that more Pokemon species can be duly recorded in a Pokedex. And on that note, here you are!” Laventon handed Leona a Pokedex.

“Reading file:Pokedex,” Ortho spoke. “ A volume for compiling the collected results of much Pokemon research. Professor Laventon continually adds to it with each report made on new Pokemon species.”

“I prepared this volume just for you,” Laventon beams. “I hope it aids you well in your aim to seek out all the Pokemon there are in this grand region!”

“You’ll have to complete lots of research tasks to help 

the professor fill out the Pokedex,” Akari adds. “The same goes for me, of course. I’ve got Pokemon to research, as a Survey Corps member.”

“I’d be all too happy to explain more about the research tasks I could use your assistance with,” Laventon offers. “Come join me at the Fieldlands Camp whenever you are ready.” Laventon, Akari, and the group start to walk over to the gate.

“Hey, excuse me⎼” a voice called out as the group walked passed headquarters. Jack and Epel heard the voice, so they separated from the group and headed over to the person who was calling out to the group.

“What’s up,” Jack asked as he and Epel were in front of the person. He was wearing a red guard uniform with a straw hat on his head.

“I’m Beauregard,” the man introduced himself. Jack and Epel did the same. “I couldn’t help but overhear… If you’re going to the Fieldlands Camp, would you mind taking care of a request for me? I’m standing guard, so I can’t leave my post.”

“Sure, what can we do to help you,” Epel questioned.

“Okay so, there’s this Pokemon called Wurmple,” Beauregard explained. “Have you guys heard of it?”

“Nope,” Jack answered, truthfully.

“Well, you see, I was having a chat with Professor  Laventon, and he told me that after a Pokemon gains a certain amount of experience through battling, it will sometimes change its appearance and become stronger. He said it was a phenomenon called Evolution. And so I decided I wanted to raise a Wurmple myself and have it evolve.”

“That sounds so cool,” Epel gushed and Jack nodded his head in agreement.

“Since it seems like you’re part of the Survey Corps,” Beauregard pauses for a bit and thinks. “If you catch a Wurmple, could you let me have it? There’ll be a reward in it for you, I promise. Just get me a Wurmple if you can!”

“We can definitely get you one,” Epel agreed to the request.

“I will be here at my post waiting then,” Beauregard smiled, and Jack and Epel went to catch back up to the rest of the group.
