It was a bright sunny day as Lexx strolled along the beaten path to Dust Town, soaking in everything around her like a sponge. Dust Town wasn't so different from Littleroot. Lots of Conifers, pretty wide sky, not too heavily inhabited. It would be hard to take the first step outside the borders on her adventure.
Next thing she knew, she was on the front steps of the town laboratory, practically touching it with her nose. She tried to hide her surprise, not that there was anyone watching.
"Um, hello?" she called, knocking on the door. After a few moments she knocked again. "Can I come in?"
Of course, this WOULD happen to her. Practically losing functionality of her bladder from the anticipation, and nobody answers the door. What if they were all out of pokemon? WHAT IF SHE WAS TOO LATE AND HAD TO GO HOME. Her stomach churned.
As she knocked on the door one last time, oddly enough she found it to be open a crack. Biting her lip and looking around, she slowly entered and stood in the foyer.
"Hello? It's Lex, I'm here to get a Pokemon?"

"Come along to the back please," a voice called from the back of the lab, urging Lexx towards her. There, Professor Conifer was tending to a squirming Torchic. "Oh stay still or it'll get worse," she said as she finished wrapping the Pokemon's leg in a bandage and placing it back into a playpen with other playing Pokemon. "Sorry I couldn't meet you at the door, one of our Pokemon was injured. Anyway, I am Professor Conifer. Since you're here for a Pokemon, feel free to choose from any of the ones we have here or take a mystery ball, though not even I'm sure what's in them. Breeders and coordinators get two Pokemon each while trainers and racers only get one," Conifer said, stepping back to allow Lex to see her options. |

Lexx jumped a little when she heard the voice calling to her, but she sped in without hesitation. The professor was wrapping the leg of a Torchic in a bandage. Lexx watched for a few moments in awe, then snapped out of it when she noticed a playpen full of little toddling Pokemon.
"Since your'e here for a Pokemon, feel free to choose..." was the last Lexx heard before a swirling cloud of glee filled her ears.
Stars, planets and galaxies swam in Lexx's eyes as she practically melted into a puddle on the floor over the adorable creatures before her. But there was one thing she did catch.
"Wait, I get two? Oh SWEET!" she squealed, picking up the Cyndaquil with feather soft fur. "Well I'll take this squirt, and a mystery ball too! If you don't mind I mean, I don't want to be demanding or anything..."
Lexx broke off and blushed, surprised that she'd forgotten her manners. The heat of the moment and all that.

As the Cyndaquil was picked up, she squirmed within Lexx's grip, accidentally knocking over one of the mystery balls. When it hit the ground, it opened up to reveal a curled up Sandshrew who lazily peeked his head out from under his shell. Yawning as he rolled onto his back, Sandshrew looked up at Lexx curiously. Meanwhile, Cyndaquil continued shaking about in an attempt to get free, squeaking irritably at being restrained. "Well, she's certainly lively enough for the two of them," Conifer said as she watched Cyndaquil. "Anyway, I have a few bags and a starter set of items I'd like you to have on your journey. Once you choose one, you can be on your way." Bags:      Bag Items:  X5  X5  x3  x2  x3  Pokedexes:          Pokemon name: Cyndaquil Gender: Female Personality: Energetic, hates being restrained, likes to chew on toes Ability: Blaze Health: 23 Level: 5 Move set: Tackle, Leer, Flare Blitz  Pokemon name: Pawniard Gender: Male Personality: Lazy, likes to sleep, hides things Ability: Sand Veil Health: 26 Level: 5 Move set: Scratch, Defense Curl, Sand Attack, Poison Sting, Metal Claw |

"Ack, okay!" Lexx chirped as the Cyndaquil squirmed to free itself from her grasp. She set it down on the ground and instead picked up the Sandshrew. "Hullo sleepy! You look like you won't mind being carried."
With a brilliant grin she turned to the items on the table, pointing to the fourth bag down and the white Pokedex.
"I guess i'll have those please!" she said, wiggling a finger at the snoozing Sandshrew's nose. "Is there anything else I need to..... OUCH!"
Howling and clutching her throbbing toe, Lex almost threw the poor Sandshrew off her shoulders. Cyndaquil looked up at her sheepishly and purred.
"Okay, I'm gonna, be on my way," she said stiffly, holding back tears. "Thank you so much for your help!"
And with that, Lexx and her two new partners made their way- painfully- out of the lab.
