Welcome/Welcome back, you crazy diamonds!

[spiritcrystal]

[An island! This is most certainly not where everyone was just a few moments ago. ...Alright, maybe some of you were on an island. Don't get cheeky.

At everyone's feet is a small note. It gives no description of their location or explanation, of course; it only says one simple thing.

Please choose one.

The note comes along with three Pokéballs with different "starter" Pokémon in them- the three Pokémon can be anything, from a Froakie, Charmander, and Treecko to a Rattata, Patrat, and Bidoof if you're particularly unlucky- and everything in between. If it's not a legendary Pokémon, it's fair game.

Of course, you can only pick one! Trying to go for a second will leave you thinking that you better not get too greedy. If you're one of those types that wouldn't care either way, the other two Pokéballs will simply disappear.

Now go forth, and into a world of Pokémon!]

{ Oh...Hey noise. Red will look up and wave to you May, and Pikachu will happily stare at you. Come on, you know you want to pet the cute mouse.}

[torchick]

[ ... Yeah, she easily succumbs to that stare and pet Pikachu. Who can deny such adorableness! But then, May turns to Red and tilts her head at that wave. ]

... Um, hi. Do we know each other?

[championfire]

{ Pikachu will nuzzle into that petting hand. Aw yes, no one can resist!}

... ..You look really familiar.

[torchick]

Oh no, I-I'm sorry! This is very rude of me.

[ Aaah why do I forget meeting people, this is horrible this is so impolite. Panicking in 3..2..1.. ]

[championfire]

{ Maybe...the sword thing...no. Ugh. Why is this so hard...}

It's not that big of a deal. There's a lot of people with similar faces around here.

[torchick]

Is it? But...

[ The fact that she is SO sure she's met Red before... And knows him well too, makes her even more uncomfortable. May turns to sigh at Pikachu and turns back to Red. ]

Um, is he yours? [ Pets Pikachu again. ]

[championfire]

{ How could you mistake this face? Pikachu is a bit sad you don't seem to recall him, though that fades away with the pets. Giving your cheek a soft poke with his tail}

Ah....Yeah, sorry. He's not bothering you is he?

[torchick]

Oh no, he doesn't! It's just...

[ So many memories that she doesn't even know existed are trying to crawl back, yet she still can't quite place it. May shakes her head to let herself distracted and looks at the pokéball Red has. ]

They're yours too?

[championfire]

Ah not all of them. I think your suppose to choose one. { alright and nabbing the last Pokeball. Let's go with Pumpkaboo! Red will let out the small ghost, as the other two Pokeballs vanish.

[torchick]

Ooooh.

[ Aaand stares at the Pumpkaboo in admiration. What is this, this is so great, dad would be pleased. ]

[championfire]

{ Red will reach out and pet the small Pumpkin, his head tilting to the side a bit as he watched it carefully.} Didn't you find one to choose yet?

[torchick]

Oh! Right, yes.

[ And takes out three small pokéballs from her bag. She had almost forgotten. She fiddles with them before crouching, putting them on the ground. ]

I don't know... I can choose one? Just like that?

[ Inside is a Pancham, Espurr and a Flabébé. They're all new! And so precious.. May wants to take all of them and show them to her dad and Brendan. ]

[championfire]

I'm pretty sure it's just one. { Pikachu will jump ship, moving to look at the Pokeballs.}

But then again I wouldn't want to take more then one, what if someone else didn't get one then?

[torchick]

[ That thought makes May feel bad about her selfish desire...! She takes a moment before putting two of the pokeballs on the ground, and releases the one on her hand-!!

Flabébé. ]

... A new pokémon. A new flower pokémon! [ Best ever. ]

[championfire]

{ Not selfish to want to try and show off.}

It's kind of cute.

[torchick]

It's really beautiful. I wonder...

[ Looks up to Red. ]

Um, do you know? The name of these pokémon?

[championfire]

...Sorry, I can't say I'm too familiar with them. Though this really Giant guy said they were from the Kalos Region.

[torchick]

[ Flabébé hops closer to May and generally just looks around her new surrounding. Its petals are red and it's just.. so tiny. ]

Kalos region? Ah, I think I've heard dad mentioned it. These pokémon are from Kalos?

[championfire]

I think so. His name was...AZ? It was something weird like that. He knew a lot about these three, so he might know about your flower.

[torchick]

[ Hmm.. Petting the Flabébé softly while contemplating to go search for this person... Wait. ]

Ah! I'm so sorry, I haven't introduced myself! [ Stands up and extends her arm to Red. ]

I'm May! Of Littleroot town!

[championfire]

So, it is you. { He'll take the offered hand, and shake it anyway.}

It's hard to be sure with so many new faces showing up.

[torchick]

Eh?

[ May tilts her head in confusion! ]

... We really have met before, haven't we?

[championfire]

Yeah. You, me, and Brendan are all friends don't you remember?

[torchick]

No, I... [ Takes a step back and holds her hands on her chest. ]

I know I've met you before, i-it sounds weird but I just know. This place... It also looks familiar, but I... [ Then adds: ]

I'm sorry, but what's your name?

[championfire]

Maybe, you've been gone too long and forgot...{ Oh well have a smile anyway.}

I'm Red, from Kanto.
