Right before we get going, I want to point out, this is my first play through and as such Crikey react in a certain way that defeats the purpose of what goes on next. And also I may drop my own comments in every now and again in brackets.
Aquacorde Town
Walking through the archway, someone yells out to our protagonist,
"Hey, Crikey! This way! Over here!"
'!'
Heading in the direction of the voice he find his neighbours sitting at a table with a chubby kid dressed in black and a cute red haired girl dressed in green,
"We were just talking about you!" Shauna exclaims (like apparently everyone else and every line in this game) "C'mon, have a seat!"
Taking a seat next to Serena she turns to you and explains,
"This is the meeting place, Crikey" She turns back forward "Here, let me introduce you" (I stand corrected, this lady talks fine) "Everyone, this is Crikey"
The tubby one comment's "Wow... Shauna's description of you was spot on!"
"What ruggedly handsome and a complete gentleman?" Crikey says sitting up straight, pushing his chest out and place a hand on it.
This gets a giggle from everyone but Serena who moves on and says,
"So, Crikey, This is Tierno. He's got some serious dance moves, and..."
She points to the red head girl, and say "This is Trevor. He never misses a single question on his test, but he's a little shy..."
"... I would be too in his position" Crikey mumbles slightly while thinking 'THATS A GUY! Dammit, I think might be Bi now...'
Luckily Tierno speaks up before anyone can register the comment,
"All right! Nice to meetcha! You know, it'd fell like we're a closer crew if we call each other by nicknames"
'Where's he going wi...'
"Can I call you C-Miester"
'NO'
"WHAT? NO WAY! He's a Li'l C, for sure!"
'Not worse, not much either'
"What do you think Trevor"
They all look at him expectantly, to which he jumps and says,
"What?! You want me to nickname someone I just met?!"
'He even sound girly... and he has a point. Definitely in Bi territory now."
"Shauna, you shouldn't put people on the spot like this"
'Yeah Shauna'
"Well... how about something low key? Maybe... something like Big C..."
'NOPENOPENOPE. Why must you not be Australian and not understand why that is not a nice nickname'
Serena turns to me, ever the voice or reason, and says
"Why don't you decide what we should call you?"
"Good idea love, But I think I'll stick with Crikey thanks"
Shauna face splits into a grin as she says, "And Crikey is just perfect for you! Hey!" She turns to Tierno "Can we see the Pokemon now?"
'You will never master the ball, if you rush through it all'
"I want to meet my new partner soon!" she practically sings.
Tierno nods
"I know, right? It was such a cool feeling when Trevs and I met our Pokemon! Hope you fell the same way we did"
'Wait, are those two together? WAAAAAIIIT... Why did that thought just have venom in it... '
Tierno reaches into his bag and pulls out a cylindrical chest,
'I wonder what could be in there?'
He opens it and reveal three pokeballs,
"Ooooo, shiny" the rest of table look towards Crikey,
"I said that out load didn't I?" Nods receive
Tierno clears his throat and starts "Right, so there's three of you and three starter pokemon and three of you, so discuss amongst yourselves which o..."
Crikey reachs across quickly and grabs the one on his left,
"This one is mine" He states look toward the other two,
Tierno glares at Crikey for interrupting him but continues anyway,
"Right, well, that one was the Grass Type Pokemon, Chespin, so y..."
"Are you going to give your Pokémon a nickname?" Shauna says looking excitedly at Crikey who was gazing longing at his pokeball which he had totally not on purpose held facing toward Trevor, but Serena reprimands her,
"Shauna! Manners"
"Chester Pinsalot"
Trevor looks funnily at Crikey and comments, "Isn't that a bit long"
"Your right Bluey, ChesterPinut. No space, makes a lovely 12 letter name"
"Right, back with me, you two must now cho..."
"MY PARTNER IS FROAKIE! Wow!" She says as she grabs the pokeball on the right "We go great together! The two of us are just way-ay-ay too cute!"
After sighing heavily, Tierno looks at Serena with and apologetic look and start to say something when Serena reaches over grabs the middle ball pulls it back to her chest says softly but firmly, "Mine" before she starts to stroke it like a cat, grinning wickedly as she does so.
Tierno for his part just packs up his case and motions forward as Trevor retrieves some things from his jacket pocket, he slides some devices across the table to each of the three new trainers,
"umm, well, This is a, arr, pokedex, it will help you further understand pokemon and document all the ones you encounter. Well, that's all we need to do, can we go now Tierno?"
"Of-course li'l bro, let's go. Oh, wait, Crikey, this is a letter for your mom, be sure to give it to her before you leave"
Crikey takes the letter and begins to leave, but is stop just before the gate.
"Crikey wait, You're gonna be my opponent in my Pokemon-battleing debut!" Shauna says dancing about a bit.
"Alright, let's have go ya little anklebitter"
