Dante had set his first step on route 801, Espada looked at him and he looked back, he then sighed.
"You know, you can't talk, so this trip might be really quiet... maybe i should find someone to travel with... a Bella perhaps."He said to Espada. Espada looked confused for a second, but understood that he wanted someone to have a conversation with.
"Pawn, pawniard..." He said to Dante.
"Nice try buddy, but i can't understand a thing you say, well anyway, i should keep my eyes open for anyone, this route has to be full with rookies."Dante said, he then started looking around, trying to find another person to travel with.

Jess had, well, 'wandered' onto Route 801. For he hadn't even noticed when he had gone out of town thanks to his mind continuously wondering why the clouds were shaped the way they were shaped. Did cloud shapes represent omens? Did they just occumulate with the raising water? Why did water raise? Heat? Yes heat, like steam but why didn't steam turn to a cloud when first rises? Perhaps its too hot. Perhaps its just not the right altitude. Even the steam on mountains, even the highest, still needs to rise higher. His thoughts continued on.
Not even the ever shifting snivy on his head could draw his attention nor could the pink ball clinging to his shoulder. His snivy whom he named Meerkat, after the pokemon's uncanny ability to search and be cautious. Truly fitting. As for the igglybuff on his shoulder clinging with all her might. He had trouble nameing her and decided on Bubblegum for her squishy bubbliness and pure roundness. Yes truly fitting.
But what drew him out of his thoughts was his foot suddenly getting caught and sending him smacking straight to the ground with a wham! He couldn't even react fast enough to even cushion his fall. Meerkat went tumbling off the blond's head with a shocked look on his face. Bubblegum managed to keep her hold but was now tearing up like as if she was the one who had fallen. Jess rose his face from the dust cloud he had created with an Ow.

Dante stopped looking around as he saw someone who looked like a jester fall on the floor, seems like he tripped over his own feet.
"He, what a bufón, falling over his own feet like that, was he practicing a act." He said to himself.
He then walked over towards the person and tried to help him up.
"¡está bien? are you alright?" He asked him, holding out his hand to help him up.

Jess managed to make it to a sitting position before a stranger had come over to him. He was rubbing at his golden locks with his Bubblegum hadd instantly gone to the other side of Jess, trying to be a shadow before this stranger. Meerkat's head had shot straight up with wide eyes at this new person. In an instant the grass-snake pokemon was running as fast as he could toward Jess, climbing over next to his pink buddy. Both pokemon stared at the new person with wide eyes, one staring with unblinking eyes, the other looking as if she'd cry at any moment.
Jess on the other hand was still a bit fazed and merely looked at the hand extended to him. An action to help but the first words certainly didn't sound like helpful words. He didn't know what those meant. A different language? But of course, else he'd be able to understand. The second must be translation. Foriegn words from a foreign person... But I am foreign to this land... What is foreign? One from a different land or one from a different world? Perhaps even a different dimension, universe? The mysteries of the world or maybe not so mysterious... Jess mumbled aloud, taking the offered hand and pulling himself up.
He pointed at himself, not even bothering to dust himself off at first. Jess, coordinator. He introduced simpily then pointed at his pokemon, Meerkat the green and Bubblegum the round. Now he was patting himself down. Then a thought finally clicked in his head that was suppose to be thought quite a while back. This is 801 correct? The first road, the first hundred steps? Oh there will be more steps than that... And off he was again in his thoughts. His two pokemon barely revealed themselves as they stared at the other with watchful eyes.

Dante stood there a bit, befuddled, and then smiled gently, it wasn't a smile of comfort though.
This guy is a bit loco, but at least he looks strong, sides, i don't mind loco people at all. He thought.
"Well, I'm Dante, i was also planning on going through Route 801, and I'm thinking it's more than a hundred steps my amigo." He said smiling.
"So how about we go through this Route together? it's that much safer, plus i really don't like being Solitario." He said to the Bufón, or rather, Jess.

This other smiled, friendliness? Hm, who knew. Probably didn't matter much as Meerkat hadn't run away yet. This grass-snake was rather watchful but he hadn't run at all since they left town, a brave Meerkat indeed.
Jess didn't smile but instead he just tilted his head with curiosity. Then nodded, it was indeed going to be more than 100 steps. Wait this one was also going through this path? Another new to the ways of journey. Did a journey even have ways? Why certainly, there's more than one path. But of course but what about the off-path? Another way. Like a spinarak web. Many ways, many paths, many encounters. Though many won't stick as good as the prey of the predator.
Coming back to reality, if this is reality, Jess merely nodded to the other's words. Journeys require more than one, unless its just travel. Travel can be one. Journeys are more. Like electric signals, one may just signal but more than one creates a conversation. Or just pretty looks. He nodded his sage nod, Yes, lead the way. His igglybuff was now climbing up onto his shoulder once more as Meerkat climbed even faster up to Jess's neck. Both still trying to hide in the shadows.

"Uhh, yeah amigo, life is a riddle, like they say." he said to jess, not really knowing if that was a yes, no or just plain gibberish.
He started walking down the path of Route 801 seeing if Jess would follow, of course, he still had to train Espada as he wouldn't be able to defeat the gym with him untrained, also a new pokemon might be a smart idea, catching a electric pokemon would come in handy, as the first gym was a flying gym. Of course, he hasn't seen a electric pokemon anywhere yet, noting that they're quite rare to find.
The pokedex told him that on Ropute 801 you could find either a shinx, or a mareep, these two itself being quite handy for a flying gym, he had hoped for the mareep, as it was the stronger of the two.
"Let's go shall we Amigo?" he asked Jess, "oh, and i might have to train my Espada a little, he needs to get stronger for the gym."

As soon as this Dante started walking Jess was following closely behind. Occasionally his eyes wandered to the large patches of grass. Certainly this one was like those of many before, hoping to find and catch. Or he was a persuader, perhaps even a racer. No he had only one so he wasn't a persuader. Maybe he was like himself, a dancer? But he had only one... Then he must be a catcher. His words confirmed.
Jess nodded, Gyms, tests. Both are the same for the catcher. Something shocking would indeed help. Or even those who are heavy like rock. Oh wait there may not be any rocks here. He might've pulled out his own 'dex but his mind was already taken over. To catch is to win? Maybe, dependable. Or was it independable results? One to his own. Now that probably made absolutely no sense what-so-ever. Onward to the cities of green then. He beckoned his companion toward the grass.

As Dante started walking forward he looked around, training against a trainer would be nice indeed, as that would definitely help more than fighting wild pokemon, if only he could find some, then he'd be set to train Espada a bit.
"Hmm, maybe i should find a pokemon before training." he said, after looking at the patches of grass.
He looked back at Jess, of course, rock type pokemon or ice type pokemon would be great to have too, in fact, a rock type would be best, but there were no caves in the area to find them, at least, none he knew off.
As he walked towards a patch of grass to find some pokemon, he started looking for a electric type, as that was his best bet at the moment.

What was that? Was it... a bird? A plane?! Super'mon? No! It was... a Sewaddle falling from the sky! The little bug chittered and flailed his arms as he fell on his back, attempting to get up. Oh no! He's fallen and he can't get up! Someone get that bug Life Alert! Heeeeeelp! Thankfully, a passing Buneary happened to see him, and being the kind lad he was, he hopped over and helped the Sewaddle up. Once they were done, they realized the grave mistake they'd made. Oops... trainers!

Dante looked at the pokemon, and then shook his head. "Nope, can't use these for the 1st gym, but i could get some battle experience out of them." He said.
"Alright Espada, let's start this battle with a sucker punch, right against that sewaddle!" He said, ordering his pokemon to attack.
Espada ran towards the sewaddle, but before it could attack him ,he slashed the sewaddle in the face with his blade arm.
[RESULT: 8]
"Hmm, but it would be a shame not to catch it while it's this weakened. hmm, you know what..." he pulled out a pokeball, and threw it towards the sewaddle. "I'm sure you'll come in handy sometime.

Oh it flew... Was the first thought the coordinator thought after seeing the Sewaddle fall from the sky. Now how did that get in the sky? It had no wings but not all things flew with wings. Maybe, perhaps, it was flyer itself. A ghost in the shape of a bug. A very odd looking ghost, or maybe even a bird. No birds had beaks... well most of them anyway. A mystery of flight, how intrigueing. Maybe it was dinner who had run-away from its dinee or perhaps it just fell. Could never rule out that possibility. Well Dante, that was the name, attacked the flyer, faller, dropper. The helper would still help but Jess couldn't let that happen, after-all Dante wanted to gain experience... or was it a new companion. Maybe just an ingrediant for bug-stew? Hm... One never could be certain.
He shook his head of the thoughts, pointed at his hiding snivy. You, you'll do. Dance? Frolic? Strike. Magical leaf on the fluffy, that one looks too paralyzed so you have to do it. Okay? Meerkat's head flicked in every direction, looking for others who might pop out of nowhere. When it looked safe the snivy looked up to his coordinator and nodded before running ahead and using a magical leaf on the bunnery.
[RESULT: 0]
Hm, that didn't work. Skip? Yes a skip. What was he even talking about...

Dante looked at Jess fighting that buneary, he wanted to see if he was any good.
"Hm, that was a bad shot." he said to himself, after witnessing that magical leaf attack.
--
The buneary blocked the magical leaf attack with ease, there wasn't enough force behind it, so it didn't hurt him.
"Bun Bun! Buneary!(Hey, why are you attacking me all of a sudden)" Said the buneary, it was definitely not happy that he was being attacked, once he saw that you had a grass pokemon, he knew what to do so he might have a chance at escaping.
He ran towards meerkat and engulfed his fist in flames, he then punched meerkat right in the stomache.
[RESULT: 7] +1
Meerkat 15/23 HP
Buneary 15/15 HP

Bun, bun? Poke'-language, sounded like bun. Hm now he was hungry, a bun sounded delicious and so did something sweet. However that fire was not so sweet. Too spicy... The coordinator stuck his tongue out as his Meerkat came rolling back to him. He looked at the pokemon, dance to skip. That wasn't good. Needed to be strike to hit, but was a strike to hit? Of course it was a strike! Green against red, that color made so strange looking tainted orange. He put his tongue back in his mouth, Spin? Dance. What is a dance without flowers but there are no flowers. Spin. A storm of leaf. Glowing leaf. Yes, magical leaf again. Yes? Yes. Meerkat, although a bit dizzy, rolled himself back on his feet, and charged again with a magical but this time he was... spinning. Jess looked to his bubblegum who was once again looking like she was going to cry, her large eyes looking at him adorably as she clung to him. Back-up? On guard, one falls another must go, don't let it escape. Be bad for the dance, the dance of war. Or well battle. The igglybuff tilted her head which actually tilted her whole body but in the end she nodded slightly.
[RESULT: 7]
Spin, spin, spin - this time the leaves swarmed with multitude and power as they flew against the bunery.
Snivy - 15/23
Bunery - 8/15
