Kile Town, Katoia...
No p.o.v.
Sophie Tintada waited outside of her mother's lab, waiting for John Morna. Where is he? Sophie thought, looking at her PokeGear. She had shoulder-length blonde hair that had a Pokeball clip in it and blue eyes. Over her blue shirt, she had a pink jacket that stopped just below her chest. She had black pants and red and black shoes. "I am SO sorry!" John Morna said as he ran up to her. He had black hair and a blue headband with a Pokeball on it. He had brown eyes. He had an orange sweatshirt and blue jeans with red and black shoes. "It's about time," Sophie mumbled. "Why were you late, anyways? You were supposed to be here an hour ago," the girl complained. "Well, I didn't expect it to be so cold, OK? I was raised in Hoenn, for crying out loud!" John said. "Whatever. I'm Sophie Tintada, Professer Maria Tintada's daughter. I research Pokemon as an occupation," Sophie said, sticking out her hand. "I'm John Morna, Jason and Sarah Morna's son and Tom Morna's brother. I enter Pokemon Contests and battle as occupations," John said, shaking her hand. "Do you also battle?" Sophie asked. "I was actually hoping to win the Grand festival and Pokemon League." John replied. "Cool. Come on inside," Sophie said, opening the door to the lab. The two walked up to a woman with blonde hair in a pony-tail, blue eyes, a pink dress, white lab coat, and white heels. "Mom, I found him," Sophie said to her mother. "Oh, good," Prof. Tintada said, turning around. "Here you go, you two," she said, handing them each something. "What is it?" John asked. "It's an open Pokedex. That means it's a Pokemon encyclopedia that doesn't have to open," Sophie explained. "Sophie already has her PokeGear, so that just leaves John," Prof. Tintada said, handing John a PokeGear. Sophie's had a black line at the top and bottom, and pink on either side of it; the rest was black. John's had a blue line at the top and the bottom, with black on either side;around the screen was blue and the rest was black. "I have one as well," she said, showing John her's. The professor's had a black line at the top and white on the bottom with black around it,and black around the screen;the rest was white. "Here's a map, Sophie. You can navigate on this journey," Prof. Tintada said, handing Sophie a map. "Thank you," both said before they walked outside. "So, where to first?" John asked. Sophie looked over the map and then looked up. "Well, we could either start by going south on Route 302 and going to Cog City for a Gym, or we could go west to Route 301, then Route 300 and getting to Vole Town, then going west and north on Route 303 to get to Tade City for a Gym. What do you wanna do?" she said. "Hm, where are they exactly?" John asked. "Cog City is by the ocean, and Tade City is by Victory Pass, which is a body of water," Sophie responded. "What kinds of Gyms?" "Tade City is water and Cog City is grass." "Hm, let's go with Tade City. That OK with you?" John said. "Yeah. So, that means we're going west." Sophie turned to the right direction and they started off on their journey.
