CASTELIA CITY

[paradisamods]

[Not long after sunrise, the ship docks in a large harbor on the edge of a great city.

Welcome to Castelia City!



Tall buildings tower over the landscape, and people crowd the streets as they make their way toward their destination. There are seldom any cars in the crowded streets, as many prefer to travel by bike or by foot, or public transit.

It seems the ship has arrived just as the city is waking up to start its day. With a city this big, one might need the whole day just to explore it.

The ship's crew thanks everyone for sailing with them, as it has been their pleasure. They certainly hope their sea-faring friends will enjoy themselves in the city.

With so much to explore, what will you do next?]


(ooc: The Pokémon plot has begun! Have fun and as always, thread-jacking is welcomed and highly encouraged!

Introductions do seem in order, don't they?

My name is Evangeline, a trainer from Icirrus City.

[encryptedlock]

[Yep, he just griiiins at that.]

Freelancer York, and I don't suppose you've ever heard of New York City?

[midget]

Never heard of it.

Is it in Kanto?

[encryptedlock]

America, actually. Though I have to admit I've been traveling a lot since I was there last.

So what kind of Pokemon is this?

[midget]

[ Here we go. Time to shine. ] It's a rare Pokémon. You can't even find one in Unova. It's called... a "Magikarp."

[encryptedlock]

[Unov--right, that's where they are now.]

Magikarp, huh? So it's...magical?

[midget]

And quite so. There are a thousand legends surrounding them. [ And no legitimacy. ]

[encryptedlock]

Oh yeah?

But you'd give one up just because it would be boring to have two?

[midget]

What else am I going to do with it?

[encryptedlock]

...Suppose you've got a point.

[midget]

This way we could both have one. More fun that way, right?

[encryptedlock]

[York maybe you should ask a professional before agreeing to buy a pokemon from a girl who you know calls herself a villain.]

Huh. I guess so.

--So how many Pokemon am I allowed to have, anyway?

[midget]

You really are new to this, aren't you?

Six to a team. So you can have six on you at once. But you can own as many as you'd like.

[encryptedlock]

Well, yeah.

[He nods at her explanation.]

Sure, then. Why not.

[midget]

All right, then. [ She fishes a Pokéball out of her jacket. ] How about five hundred?

[encryptedlock]

Five hundred--uh--

[He checks his wallet. Oh yeah, that was like five bucks in this place. Not that York ever has a problem getting money when he needs it.]

Here you go.
