Arik checked he still had everything and he had not “lost” anything since his last stop traveling. Coming all the way over from Jonto certainly took time but the ship had been a new experience to him (so had a week of sea sickness) and the Lapras sighting had been worth it. Arik stood and took a deep breath and even spent a moment trying to fix his hair only to give up at its refusal. This was it, everything he had been working for lay in this room, with a man he had never met in an area he had never been to. Could he really do it? Arik shook his head, there was no room for doubts after all he couldn’t spend his whole life studying for something he was to afraid to make the first step towards.
Arik straitened himself up and knocked on the door, he took a glance at the list of pokemon there was to choose and smiled to himself already knowing his choice. Part of him thought as he waited at the door how few soon to be trainers were as ready as him for the responsibility of owning a pokemon – so why did he feel like it was the first day at school and he was to sit a test he had not revised for?

When James heard a knock on the door, he almost dropped the teapot he was holding. Fortunately, he managed to put it down before he ran over to the door to see who was knocking. It seemed fairtly obvious though; a new trainer. There were only so many that could come before they got annoying.
Opening the door, Mahogany looked outside to see Arik. "Hello there!" He said, trying to be a cheerful as possible. "You're here for a new pokemon, am I right?"

The door opened and a guy, quite likely the professor, greeted Arik. The knot in his stomach loosened a little, after all what would he have done if the professor was out somewhere, he had over looked that fact. Part of him wondered as he replied, what else he might have over looked. “Yup..err I mean yes. It’s nice to meet you Sir, I hope I’ve come at a good time” Truth be told it had taken all Arik’s will power not to turn up at the Lab as soon as he had arrived in Barkwish town. He was pretty sure the professor would not have been too pleased if he had knocked at 2am. Instead he had settled down too sleep in the local pokemon center – not that he could sleep much with all the adrenalin pumping. “May I come in?”

"Hmmm? James is fine, no need to call me sir. Of course you can come in." James was half glad Arik had come easlish. Bill was still asleep. James opened the door wide to show his lab. Walking off to the large stone bench where the teapot he had abandoned earlier sat, James went over and poured himself a cup. "Tea? It's green, not black."
After pouring the tea James turned around. His lab was there, the six pedestals where the pokeballs still left lay. "Did you have any particular pokemon in mind?" He asked. "Type?"

James, Arik would have to remember that, James, James. There was nothing worse then meeting someone, learning their name only to forget it five minuets later and he should know he had done it enough times. “Sorry force of habit” Living at school for such a long time certainly left its mark, he still had to watch him self if ever he wanted to ask any one a question because his arm seemed to shoot up of its own accord, quite embarrassing.
Knocking any traces of dirt off his shoes before he entered Arik took a good look around. It wasn’t as big as he had expected, still it was a good size. Arik smiled when he saw the stone bench, not because of what lay on it but because stone furniture would certainly be more resilient to inexperienced pokemon then say wood. The sight of the pokeballs drew his attention and pushed out any other observations he might have been likely to make, he didn’t even realize he was smiling and only just caught what the professor had said about tea. “No…that’s ok I don’t drink tea, thank you for the offer” Arik had to tare his eyes away from the small red and white balls, each one holding a different possibility, a different future. “Charmander” Arik said with a small nod and a smile that only seemed to grow. Ever since he had seen a charmander it had been his dream to raise one all the way up to Charizard. Heck that’s why he had chosen a fire pokemon farm to work on for the past year. “Its all I’ve ever wanted”

"Charmander you say?" He said, walking over; tea in hand. He took a few sips and looked back up again. Walking over to one of the pedastels with a flames imprinted on the side, James stopped. "Well, this is where all our charmanders are."
He shrugged and looked around. Bill was still nowhere to be seen. "We still have some left. Have you seen the other pokemon we have to offer as well?"

Arik smiled, he couldn’t help but feel a little smug after all it was obvious some trainers turned up not knowing anything about any of the pokemon they were hoping to receive. The strange thing was they then wondered why they made so many mistakes with their first. “Selibulb” Arik counted off on his fingers as he spoke. “A highly affectionate grass pokemon due to its dependence on its trainer in its first stage. Its later stages Diabulb and Meliibulb repay this closeness by always giving their all in battle” “Grista, the fire and flight pokemon, needs little help in training for strength but often needs it’s trainers guidance to focus this power. Its later stages are Horntorus and Koranto” “Ralsius is the water of the group and is both fast on land and in the water, a highly unusual trait in a water pokemon. In its later stages it evolves into Resius and Rusius and gains its ice attribute.”“As for Charmander, Bulbasaur and Squirtle surely every trainer knows more about these pokemon then almost any other.” Arik genuinely laughed “I know what I’m doing and what I’m getting my self into by asking for a Charmander”
