[OOC: Replies will be kinda on the slow side if they even pop up since technically today I begin my hiatus. ^^; SORRY GUYS I'LL BACKTAG TO HIGH HEAVEN WHEN I RETURNNNN]

['Sup, Johto. This is Clover, cross-sitting on the grass with a Pichu in her arms. She's grinning. Actually, she's been in a good mood a lot these days.]

The egg Kisa got me hatched. Isn't he cute? I named him Ion - ow! [She flinches as the Pichu accidentally gives her a tiny shock by latching onto her arm.] Watch it! [Clover frowns, but only for a moment. Doesn't take her long to be all bubbly again.]

Anyway, now all I gotta do is train him up and he'll give Falkner the shock of his life!

[Just then, a Budew waddles over to Clover, followed by a Furret clutching something in his paws. It's a four - or rather, a three-leaf clover. It probably used to have four leaves but one seemed to have been either chewed down to a stub or torn off. Clover giggles as she turns to take the...well, clover.]

That's more of a three-and-a-half-leaf-clover, you guys - aaaaah!

[And before she could finish - ladies and gentlemen, does this bright flash of light look familiar? Ion whimpers and buries his face into Clover's chest as his trainer shields her eyes and leans away, Striper the Furret steps back in surprise, and Light the Budew? Oh, right now you can't see him. Just wait a few more minutes until...]

Rose...lia?

[Silence. Ion (who scurries behind Clover), Striper and Clover are just going to staaaaaaare until...]

All riiiiiiight!

[She jumps up, but actually remembers to put Ion down before jumping up and grabbing Light's arms - OMG LIGHT HAS ARMS NOW - and dancing all over the grass. Clover twirls him around and around, laughing as Ion and Striper - who picks up the PokéGear - run off to follow them.

Light does look elated, but Clover is definitely a lot happier than he is. Well, he's...kinda getting used to...being a foot tall and HAVING ARMS but okay.]

Awesome! About time you evolved!

Really?

Are you new here?

Yeah, I pretty much just got here.

Oh. In that case, welcome to Johto! Pokémon evolve like this when you train them and make them happy. Or when you expose them to certain stones.

Thanks! And wow, that sounds a little complicated. How do you know when it'll happen or what to do?

When you're a little lost, you can always try checking the Pokédex on your PokéGear.

I guess it's got everything on it then?

Preeeeeeetty much. There's a handbook too.

Yeah, I found that when I looked through my bag. Hopefully it's more helpful than some of the handbooks that I've read.

It...helped me out, but I did have to ask around for more help too.

At least everyone seems helpful.

Yup. We all feel each other's pain, I guess...getting dragged into this world and everything.

It definitely makes sense. I got told that there were some rogue trainers too, though. Have you ever ran into any?

Not lately, but if I do, they're goin' down!

I hope someone can stop them.

Me too, but I gotta feeling there'll always be rogue trainers around.

At least if there aren't so many it's not that big a problem.

True...

Oh yeah, I'm Clover. I've been here since May.

I'm Kitty, it's nice to meet you.

May? That's not all that long. Most other people that I've spoken to have been here for a while.

Not that long, sure, but I've learned a ton.

You definitely sound like you have, I'm glad my Gear was on.

[A smile.]

Thanks. Just tryin' to help, that's all.

Do you have an tips of things you wish you'd known when you got here?

Huh? Whaddaya mean?

Getting here's pretty confusing, especially with how different this place is to home. I'm still getting used to it all. So sort of... a good tip of something you've found out that you think is useful? Anything about the place that you wish someone told you when you got here - even if they did tell you.

Hmmmm...well, I guess you just gotta expect the unexpected. That's pretty much a given. And treat your Pokémon right.
