Eulalio was pumped. The storm had finally passed and now there was an entirely new area exposed to go exploring in. Not only that but he had a friend to go along on this-the first adventure out into the wild. Tori was not quite new to Nauwill, but she hadn't gotten to go out to explore any of the plains. With one of her pokemon finally through quarantine and a newfound friend in her new chingling, she was finally getting her chance.

Eulalio was bringing along his faithful Bonbon, and then some of his newest pokemon, Tansy, Blodwyn and Rue. It was some of their first time out, but he had high hopes. Packing up what he thought would be good to take into the forested area, Eulalio met Tori at the edge of town.

"Are you excited to finally get to see some of the rest of the island?" Eulalio asked as they set out.

Tori didn't think she could actually get more excited than she already was. She had Pearl with her finally and she could go out! The soft chiming of her newest friend, Caspian the chingling, reminded her that she had two pokemon of her own to go on this trip. She had a small bag packed and the moment she heard Eulalio she immediately brightened.

"So excited! I know you've been out to the plains quite a bit, so I'm glad you let me convince you to explore the new area," Tori teased. She knew both of them were equally excited to find out what was in the new area. Spooky forest tucked away in a valley revealed by a freaky storm, there was no way there wasn't something spooky in here.

"What do you think we'll see first? I bet there's probably paras in there."

Whatever Eulalio had been about to say was silenced as they caught the sound of a tussle. Before they can even think about it, they've already grabbed a ball at random from their pack and have pitched it towards whatever scuttled into the underbrush. They have just enough time to think 'huh, that's a weird wurmple,' before they realize that they've thrown a Research Ball at it. Crossing their fingers they hold their breath as they wait for the click signifying a successful catch. It was either that, or the ball popping back open and the weird wurmple(?) scurrying off even faster.

It happened so fast that Tori almost didn't catch on to what was happening before she heard the tell-tale sign of a successful poke ball catch. Not quite shrieking in glee, she grabbed Eulalio's arm and shook it, almost more excited than they were about the catch.

"You caught it!!" Tori was SO excited. She had seen a glimpse of brown-she thought it was brown anyway-but it had disappeared before she could even tell what exactly it was. "The first official pokemon of this new area! Aahhh," Tori let go of Eulalio to help them look for where the ball went. "What even was it? It happened so fast-I didn't get to see."


"Wurmple... probably," came Eulalio's reply while digging around inside the brush. Tori couldn't help the face she made. She didn't. . . particularly like bug pokemon. If the first one they found was one... it was likely that there would be more. More wurmples and likely other bug types as well. She deflated some. When she had heard there was a nice river in the forested area she'd hoped there would be some water pokemon.

Eulalio straightened up, ball in hand to catch sight of Tori smacking both her cheeks. He stifled a laugh. Whatever the reason she did it, she looked even more pumped than she had when they set out. They tucked the newly caught pokemon securely in their pack and then turned to head deeper into the forest.

"Whatever happened probably spooked off any nearby pokemon, more than our quick catch did anyway. Let's keep going. We can keep an eye out for anything else while we look around!" Eulalio confidently led the way forward, despite never having been here before either.

Tori was the one to react faster this time. Off to the side she could hear underbrush rustling, at least one semi-familiar pokemon call and without missing a beat she pulled out a Research Ball. As soon as she saw a vague pokemon shape hustling towards the river she threw her ball as quickly as she could. She didn't have to see exactly what she was snagging to be able to bring something back. Her heart started beating loudly in her ears, almost loud enough that she couldn't hear whether or not her throw had hit anything. Holding her breath, she listened as intently as she could, hoping that she had gotten it.

Eulalio cheered for Tori when they both heard that Click! of a pokemon being successfully captured. She was absolutely beaming as she went to pick the poke ball up and quickly sent out the pokemon to check what she had caught. Eulalio held in laughter as she just as quickly pulled the pokemon back into the ball after she realized it was a nauwillian weedle.

"Hey cheer up! It's your first pokemon here in Nauwill. And it's one of the native variants." Eulalio reached out to grab Tori's hand, gently squeezing it. "We've only been out here a short while and we've already caught two of the pokemon out in this area. I'm sure we can manage a couple more before we head back." The little pep talk must make Tori feel better, because the corners of her mouth turn back up into the smile that's normally on her face. She returns his hand squeeze and nods.


"We can do it!" She agreed. Mutually they let go of one another as they decided to continue forwards into the forest. So far bugs and more bugs. Eulalio knew he was excited about this turn of events. He had a bag full of bugs and there were so many more out here waiting to be discovered.

The pair of them got about three steps further into the forest when the sound of yet another tussle alerts them to more pokemon in the area. Tori looks in the direction of the forest, but Eulalio spots a semi familiar outline and turns towards it. He's faster by just a hair, pulling out a Poke ball and throwing it once he has a clear shot.

Tori loses sight of whatever pokemon was heading to the water before she can even think of throwing her ball, so she turns back towards Eulalio. He's taking quick steps into the underbrush, and there's the distinct sound of a poke ball mid catch. It takes just seconds for it all to be over.

The sound of a successful catch has never been more exciting than right this moment. Eulalio fist pumps and goes back into the underbrush to fetch the latest pokemon to be caught on this expedition. It had looked like a Tangela and he was more than pleased with his catch. Letting it out, he was surprised at the sight of the actual pokemon. It was like a. . baby tangela? Tori leaned in as well.

"Awww, it's so cute," she cooed, crouching to see about gently petting the top of it's head. Eulalio crouched as well trying not to overcrowd the little thing. He had. . .quite a few pokemon now, he thought, chewing on his lip. This new pokemon was probably a grass type and he loved those, but at the same time. . .Tori didn't have that many. Maybe he should. . .offer the new pokemon to her? He'd think about it until they were heading back into town.

"It's likely a grass type, I'm sure the researchers will have a field day when we first get back." Eulalio let her pet the small creature for a moment or two longer. She eventually stood and he took that as sign enough to pull the pokemon back into a ball. Putting thoughts of a trade to the side, he lead them a bit further before they started to look around.
