An Unusual Trainer

[Mario]

As the sun begins to rise, a blimp is seen flying away from the cliffside. A lone Pokemorph watches the blimp fly away before turning toward the labratory that the blimp had stopped near. He sighs and tightens the cloak around him before walking inside. He looks around at the various instruments around the lab, all of which make him uneasy due to the fact that it was in a room like this that he had been experimented on and transformed. He shakes his head to get rid of the thoughts and calls out. "Hello? Is there anyone here?"

[Professor Gravon]

Maybe he was being rhetorical. There were pokemon everywhere! Some celebrating. Some playing. Some singing. Some still looking fearful. Some talking. Some standing by themselves...
From normal to shadow, from shiny to rainbow- there were too many pokemon to count! What pokemon did Mario want? There was such a diversity!

[Mario]

Mario blinks, a bit flabbergasted. "Wow...so many Pokemon...oh, my aching head...which one, which one, which one?" He shakes his head again to relieve some of the strain and continues to walk through the lab. He looks at each of the Pokemon, trying to decide which one to get. After several minutes, he stops in one area of the lab and looks at the Pokemon that caught his eye. A Shiny Vulpix was playfully running around with a Skitty. As he watches the Shiny Vulpix, he smiles for the first time since he had been transformed. He crouches down and continues to watch the Vulpix. After a few more seconds, the Shiny Vulpix notices him and runs over, wanting to play.
"My," Mario mutters as he reaches out with a black-furred hand to pet the Vulpix. "You sure are the energetic one."

[Professor Gravon]

(Ooc: That was quite a bit of Godmoding my friend. Please don't do that!)

<Thankyou!> Replied the shiny vulpix. Even though it hardly knew Mario, it looked at Mario in such a way that it looked as though it was linking itself to him.

On a far table, near the lab entrance was a table with starters packs on them. The skitty ran into a table and a pokeball fell from it rolling towards Mario.

<KASS IS HERE! KASS IS HERE! EVERYONE CHEER! KASS IS HERE!> A bunch of pokemon sang, dancing in a congo line around the lab. Laughter could be heard everywhere as were massive cheers.

<Look out Herald look out! Look out Herald look out! Don't mess with Kass, Or she'll kick your @$$! Look out Herald look out!>

[Mario]

((OOC: Sorry, didn't realize it. It won't happen again.))

Mario looks around at the commotion. "Okay...this is a bit wierd. Who's Kass? And who's Herald?" He then draws his attention to the Pokeball. He picks it up and stands back up, walking over to the table and noticing all the sets. "Wow, I wonder where the money for these supplies come from?" He places the Pokeball back with the appropriate set but holds off against taking a set yet. He sits down against a wall and looks at the ceiling. At that second, he decides to try working with his Pokemon language again. He focuses a bit and tries to sound out the words. <Test, test, one, two, three,> he manages to say in a series of Umbreon speech.

[Professor Gravon]

An eevee looked towards Mario but then resumed cheering and dancing.
The main hall in the lab looked a bit odd. Weird looking camera/ lockingsystems/ speakers and tube-like machines were hanging around the doors and corners of the Hall. They looked brand new. What were they for?

More pokemon entered the room!
<We are free! We are free! Kass is freeing us!> They were yelling with excitement.

The shiny vulpix looked up at Mario.
<Lets go find her! I'll travel with you!> It said, nudging the pokeball with it's nose.

[Mario]

Mario looks at the Shiny Vulpix and smiles. "Alright then. Why not?" He stands back up and picks up a starter pack. He takes the Pokeball and twirls it on his finger for a second before placing it on the ground near the Shiny Vulpix. In truth, Pokeballs scared him a bit. Since he was part-Pokemon, there was a possible but unknown chance that he could be captured should he be hit with a Pokeball. He then sighs. "Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself, and perhaps you should know what I really am." He pulls back the cloak's hood, revealing the face of a Umbreon Morph with red spiked hair on top of his black-furred face. "My name is Mario."

[Professor Gravon]

<Wow! You're RED! Red's my favourite colour!> It marvelled.
<Why do you hide yourself! People love individuality! And you look so unique in such a curious way!> It said.
<You shouldn't be intimidated by the world. The world should be intimidated by you! You ARE going to be a pokemon master one day, and I am going to do all I can to help you!> The vulpix said, rubbing up against his leg.

[Mario]

((OOC: I meant his hairstyle is red, not his fur.))

Mario smiles again. "You know, you're the first person who actually doesn't care what I look like. Perhaps we'll make great friends after all." He crouches down, pets the Shiny Vulpix, and then looks around. "So where did this Kass person go?"

[Professor Gravon]

(Ooc: I know. Just letting you know. If you stay in the Main Lab Hall you might turn into a pure dark type...)

<Before I tell you, you might want to clap this ball on me first.> It said.

<I saw her run down that hall. Obviously she has made it to Herald's room because all the cage doors are opened! Now we are just waiting to see her come back to us here...> It said excitedly.

[Mario]

((OOC: Understood, but I don't get how I could transform completely.))

Mario looks down the hall and sees and hears nothing. "I don't know. Perhaps I could meet her another day. She's probably too busy right now." He takes the Pokeball and tosses it into the air toward the Shiny Vulpix.

[Professor Gravon]

The shiny vulpix remained in the ball!

It popped out of it's pokeball.
<There's a bounty on the capture of Herald! $20,000!> It said.

[Mario]

Mario smiles. "I got a Shiny Vulpix. How about I call you Vixen?" He then blinks in disbelief after hearing what Vixen had to say. "Woah, that's a lot of money! ...By the way, who is he, what does he look like, and what exactly did he do?" He stands up while attaching Vixen's ball to his belt.

[Professor Gravon]

<I heard vague reports about him. But he forces pokemon to change into dark types here at the Lab! It really hurts them! He tortures and experiments on eevee's too to make his dream's come true!> The vulpix said.

"HAHAHAHA! You back off Zeki! Touch me and I'll transform you into nightshade juice!!!" A voice through a megaphone could be heard all around the room and branching off corridors.

<That must be Herald! What's he done to Prof Zeki?> It whimpered.

"You dream destroyers! Back off! This is my dream! My vision! My time for fame! I will be famous for making Dark Pokemon! And I will be famous for making Umbreon and Espeon evolve from moonstones and sunstones! Why are you against me?" Herald could be heard the speaker.

<Follow me! I've got a good sense of smell and hearing. I'll be able to find Zeki and everyone else!> The vulpix said bounding down a corridor.

(Ooc: Now you can head straight there! I will no longer control your vulpix!)

[Mario]

"Right!" Mario says as he takes off after Vixen down the hall burning the rubber of his shoes as he tries to find out entirely what's going on.
