"and you're completely sure about that?" a concerned looking man kneeled down to pat his Lombre a bit, the disinterested look on its face and the cold avoidance of the touch made the man frown before looking back up at Chance with uncertainty. Chance gave the man a bright smile in response, almost cheeky in his response.<br/><br/>"Ah, don't sweat it. Give her a day or two and she'll be more cheery than you know what to do with. You a fan of salsa?"<br/><br/>The man quirked an eyebrow at him as he put his Lombre back in a Pokeball "The.... dip?"<br/><br/>"The music." Chance said with a chuckle "play some with your Lombre around, you might be surprised," just as the man opened his mouth to ask more questions, Sion started to stir in Chance's arms and immediately began grumbling at him noisily. Chance used his thumb to wipe the sleep from the edges of the pokemon's eyes before scratching behind its ears; Sion's fit refused to be quelled so easily.<br/><br/>"What's the matter, bud? Bad dream?" Sion gave him a blank look before pointing straight at the sun. Chance's eyes widened in horror as realization struck him on the head. He'd been so caught up talking to trainers about their pokemon; his number had probably passed by now. Without request, Sion clambered up to hug around Chance's neck before giving off a harsh white glow. Chance looked up at the trainer and gave him an apologetic look before waving.<br/><br/>"Sorry to go so fast, it was nice meeting you, remember to add some more protein to your spinarak's di-"<br/><br/>With a blinding flash, the pair materialized near a lodge. The sheer volume of people about was indication enough that they'd landed in the right place. Chance surveyed the area and let out a loud whistle while giving his companion a no-look high five. The town was well kept with simple bright homes and lush patches of grass between paved streets and sidewalks. Several people took advantage of the wide open spaces and were strolling about or playing with their pokemon. A particularly lively mankey hopped over Chance's head before circling him a few times and darting off towards a large collection of people. Countless trainers filled the area with excited chatter and noise as some went about showing off their pokemon. A lot of nervous and emotional faces were among the crowd, but Sion's attention had focused in on a single face. He settled back into Chance's cradling arm before tugging at his shirt with a claw. The Abra pointed right at a small Eevee sitting on its trainer's shoulder before looking up at Chance and giving him a few rumbles about 'what a good idea it'd be to go meet her'. Chance chuckled and looked down at his companion's pleading face with an amused expression.<br/><br/>"You wake up and tell me off for my wandering, but it's okay when you do it, huh?" The Abra slowly brought a claw up to Chance's mouth to shush him before pointing back at the Eevee testily. Chance chuckled before making his way over, still taking in the scenery of the town as he strolled. With a warm smile and a wave, Chance greeted the trainer Sion had completely ignored in favor of the Eevee.<br/><br/>"Hey, sorry about this but..." he looked down at Sion who was currently still shamelessly pointing.<br/><br/>"I think this little guy might have a crush!" Chance joked. The Abra paid no mind to the introductions as he tugged at Chance's shirt.<br/><br/>"I'm Chance and this...," he started before hefting the Abra a bit in his arms. He'd calmed his tugging a bit since they'd gotten close "This is Sion, do you mind if we sit for a bit? Need to make sure we haven't missed our appointment; 339 here,"
