05. Evolution

[isthedeadcat]

[HEEEELLOOOO Johto, this is Lion currently setting the pokégear on the floor, in what appears to be Route 29. After that, Lion moves aside and then walks to the back, where Beatrice is currently sitting on a rock, to sit by her side.]

Good afternoo---

Ah! Did you just see that??

[Giselle, Lion’s dratini who has previously been seen slapping skarmories and being quite pretty, is currently shining a whole lot. The shining figure eventually grows larger until it becomes a pretty spiffy Dragonair.]

She finally evolved. [Lion gets closer to Giselle, to pet her head. She appears to be both very proud... And very in the need of showing off. So she goes to Beatrice after that, to get some more petting.]

She’s so beautiful... hello Giselle...

[Giselle goes around a little more bragging showing off to let everyone see the changes, before stopping and poking at her now quite short ribbon with her tail.]

And there she is, asking for a new ribbon. [Sigh, sigh forever.]

So this is evolution... Lion, is Darjeeling going to change like Giselle?

That is correct. Houndour evolves into Houndoom... But not all pokémon evolve, it depends on the species, their own willingness and growth.

I see, I see... did you hear, Darjeeling? We need to work hard!

This transmission has changed the topic completely... [Chuckle.] I suppose this will be good enough. We are in Route 29 almost reaching Cherrygrove. From there we will move on to Violet.

It won’t take us long to reach the next town! I can’t wait to see it!

[And with that, Lion cuts the feed, so Beatrice can keep on getting excited over silly things.]

[OOC: This post was made on a cracky session of google docs with Moetrice-mun, so it's done with her permission. Tags will come from both Beato or Lion.]

Wow... I'm really impressed you're making so much progress with your team while you're still so early on, Lion-san!

... ah. Wait, what is Beatrice-san doing way back there with Lion-san...? I'm almost positive she was in Ecruteak...

[isthedeadcat]

There are many strong pokemon in the water streams in Cherrygrove. It is a little expensive as a training spot, but at least it's something useful to do when you have nothing to do but wait.

[Eep. The Beatrice thing.] Ah... [H-how do you even explain this?!] She may look much like her, but she is a different person than the Beatrice in Ecruteak.

[video]

[combat_butler]

Heee~h... I didn't know there were any actual strong ones that early on. Though fishing and luring them out of the water does usually give results in a certain range...

*blink blink* Se... seriously? But... but she's identical! Appearance wise, anyway...

[ping'd by Beatrice.]

Good afternoon! Are you Lion's friend?

[video]

[combat_butler]

--eh? Ah, kind of... *blink blink* Umm... So you really don't know who I am?

So that's a dragon type, she's so beautiful. Congratulations Lion. How long did it take?

[Anew then notices a girl next to Lion and remembers something they talked when Opal hatched]

Is that girl Beatrice? The one you spoke about last time?

[Video]

[isthedeadcat]

Thank you, Anew. It took about seven weeks of daily work... I found that there were some very high level pokémon in the streams in Cherrygrove, and that they can be lured out for a fight with the right bait.

[And now Lion smiles a little, nodding.]

Yes, she's Beatrice.

[Anew is happy that Lion has somebody from home with her, even if that thought awakens the tyniest surge of envy within Anew]

I'm glad the two of you are okay. I'm on my way to Azalea now

[buttpinched.livejournal.com]

So she finally evolved.

[Video]

[isthedeadcat]

It's good that she did it before we left, I don't think it would've been so quick otherwise.

[Video]

[fathersbeloved]

Doesn't she looks cute?

[HAS NO IDEA OF WHO YOU ARE but you're talking to Lion, so you must be a friend.]

[swordofimpulse.livejournal.com]

...A dragon-type, huh?

[Oh hey there's a smiling Shinn, because d'aw Beato so cute.]

[video]

[fathersbeloved]

Giselle looks beautiful! I'll read more about evolution in our way to the next town, I wonder how Darjeeling will look like after he evolves too?

Have your pokemon evolved, Shinn?

[action]

[fathersbeloved]

[Reading her guide, with a soft, concentrated frown.]

[action] DAMNIT STOP BEING ADORABLE.

[isthedeadcat]

[Watching the pokémon run around massacring low leveled wild pokémon and letting her read, doesn't want to bother her.]

[crossinggenders.livejournal.com]

Ah, that's great! Violet has been a fun city for me so far!

[Video]

[fathersbeloved]

Lion told me there's a library in there, is that true?

[ video ]

[photonsaber.livejournal.com]

She's so pretty!

[ video ]

[isthedeadcat]

Draaaa!!

She is quite enjoying all the attention. [Chuckles.]

[ video ]

[uuing]

... Uu-! Is Lion friends with Beato too? [ Well, Maria is able to realise which one of the two Beatrices here it is from the way she talks, but.. she still doesn't know what this Beatrice really is. ]

Kyakyakya, congratulations on evolving-! She looks really pretty now, uu-uu-!

[ video ]

[isthedeadcat]

Yes, we are friends... We are going to be traveling together too.

[Have some love, Maria, Giselle is all "Dragonair ♥♥" at you.]

She has been doing a great job too.

[reveiller]

Ah, so that's the evolved form of Dratini. It's a little larger than I thought it would be.

[pause] Then again, I've heard stories of dratinis the size of horses.

video.

[isthedeadcat]

Yes, she's quite large, but also very light.

[Blinks at that.] Have you? May I ask where did you hear them?

video.

[retrusting.livejournal.com]

Ah, um. Con-gra- gra... gra...

[Paaaaaause how does this word go again he doesn't even.]

video.

[isthedeadcat]

Thank you, Giselle has been working really hard to achieve this.
