what smelt? ah, that smelt. the Stunky wandering a few paces away would stop, look at the human alone and bristle in defense. she glanced over the silly little thing, not moving a muscle outside of locking her eyes with the distance. eventually the wild beast would move on.

she had no desire to capture a Stunky. they were a lowly bottom feeder in the grand scheme of things. if she desired respect and admiration in her field, she needed more than a stinky little mite. her own Pokemon did not return yet. Siobhan would wonder if they had found something and were fighting it, or scouring for a suitable trinket for their mistress...

either way, she was quite eager to see what they found.

another useless beast. she barely glanced its wake when it scurried across the grass and into the open. though large and intimidating, she could stand to be frugal with her Pokeballs. she had limited cash and also limited items.

Siobhan's Pokemon still took their time, yet she knew they could handle themselves. there was little cause for concern. the day grew later and soon she would have to be back in town. as loathsome as it was to admit such a thing - even to herself - she did need to recharge. especially after the trip from Galar.

Poe was the one to arrive first. he flew from the sky above, dropping a Toxel in front of her. already beaten soundly. Lorelai came next, dragging with her nothing - yet that was fine. "excellent job" Siobhan coos to both of them, bending down and then up to pat both her partners. they would also coo in thanks, the affection received well.

she did not play favorites. even if the Corviknight had taken down a suitable piece of prey, t'was important to show equal affection to both. Siobhan slipped out a Pokeball and threw it at the Toxel, attempting to capture it. stepping away from the young Pokemon, she would watch for the sphere to click. just a bit more, and she would have captured her first Pokemon in Hoenn...

3/3 - capture
