What did she do now? She looked at the other flesh-and-blood Trainers. Some had already left, but others were milling around, too. She almost worked up her nerve to say something to one of them, but she chose the safe option.<br/><br/><strong>"Hello, excuse me,"</strong> Emma said politely to the receptionist. "Where do I train my Pokémon?" After speaking with the receptionist, she would ask the Townie, <strong>"Hi there! Where can I go to find more Pokéballs?"</strong> She was ready to start leveling up her Squirtle; the Pokéball that held her precious Pokémon was clutched tightly in her hand in anticipation. <br/><br/><hr/><hr/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=328151.msg15700960#msg15700960">Quote from: NerdyWolf27 on 31-12-2020, 01:03:34</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Aiden turned and walked over to the lobby. There he saw one of the other players speaking to the receptionist. That wasn’t a bad idea. NPCs sometimes give players things. Aiden immediately made his way to the PokeDex lab. There he spoke to each of the 3 developers. “Is there anything here I can use for my journey? Do you have any advice.” He was very direct with his questioning. His intention would be to circle back to the receptionist and the townie when he had the chance. <br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/><br/>Resurrection Lab<br/><em>There are no visible Items here in this room.

Much concrete and iron are sunken into sand and sea. There are many ships such as SS ANNE and SS AQUA, and there are towering gray wind turbines at one hill where Pidgeys and the occasional Wingull soar. The cemetery is easily overlooked in one dark wooded corner of Pallet Bay. Daisy's House has expanded while Red's House looks humbled and neglected. There is not much beach or grass here, just plain concrete and antique panels. There aren't much people, Pokémon, or Items to be seen.
