Route 101 looks different from the last time he was here. It's clear to Florian that the region is still recovering from the unusual snows it had seen in December, and while the snows were beginning to melt, a certain melancholy hung over the route.

Or maybe it's all in his head.

Footsteps crunch in the detritus of fallen leaves as he strays from the beaten path and into the more wild areas of the admittedly-still-tame route. According to the guide he'd purchased in an attempt to familiarize himself with his new home, this route was popular with beginning trainers due to its rather forgiving nature.

The dragon sightings around Oldale as of late would beg to differ, but that was supposedly out of the ordinary.

Florian looks up as his Sylveon greets someone with a friendly trill, offering a soft smile of his own. "Oh, don't mind him. He gets excited about strangers."

Route 101, the usual "boring" route each region tended to have. Even still, boring was safe and usually meant peace and quiet so naturally the edgy and brooding Jet thought that here would be the best place to do some light training and looking for some pokemon. Fate on the other hand loved throwing him curve balls and despite his intentions a lone wild session was not in the cards.

While the snow had mostly melted from the Region, it was still hella cold, especially for the easily annoyed rocket so he was accomapined by his Arcanine, Cu, who at this stage figured that he no longer needed to stay in his pokeball. The reason for this was that Jet was mostly using his fire type as a heater while he traversed the region, just so he wouldn't solidify while walking through the cold tropical region. Even in a red Hoddie and black Jacket the boy still needed the heat from his doggo to keep him content. He was still pissed about the cold of course, as anyone should be. It was a tropical Region after all! Why the hell should it be cold. "God damned climate change..." he mumbled to himself, which while he thought was an innocent vent turned out to be an invitation to a pokemon.

The frilly and spry pink pokemon came up to Jet and his Arcanine and let out a sweet, cute tone while it twirled it's ribbon appendages as if saying hello. Before he could jump to the conclusion that the pokemon was just a super friendly wild one, it's trainer came up dismissing the pokemon. "Oh it's fine, he's the same." Jet replied, throwing his head towards Cu who crouched down lower on his front legs to be at the same height as the sylveon. After Jet spoke, the fire type mistook his words from "Oh yeah He's the same" to "Oh yeah copy it" and as a result the Dog let out a low howl, trying to copy the trill that this stranger's pokemon let out earlier.

Jet just face palmed as Cu began to pant happily, looking to from his master to Florain, looking for praise of it's impersonation. "Sorry about him, he's kind of uh..." shifting his gaze to the Arcanine who still seemed far too pleased with itself, the blue haired lad just smirked and patted him on the head. "He's a good boy, but a little slow." Simply accepting the praise, Arcanine yapped happily while Jet turned back to the stranger. "So, what brings you to this quiet part of the region?"

Florian's eyes are wide as saucers, full of undisguised wonder at the appearance of an adorable Arcanine. That it's not the brightest slips his attention as he watches it crouch down next to his Sylveon.

Joli tilts his head at the Arcanine's howl, flicking his ears. A pleasant trill follows, the fairy-type's canines flashing in an apparent grin.

The stranger apologises for his Pokemon, then, and Florian's laughter is light and airy in response. "Ah, he seems like a sweetheart! A good boy, indeed; there is no harm done!"

Not noticing the Kecleon, camouflaged as it was, Florian's eyes find an Ivysaur instead. He tracks its movements for a moment before turning his attention back to Jet as a question was posed.

"Scenery, curiosity, the Pokemon." He gestures at the Ivysaur, smiling. "Take your pick! I enjoy the calming atmosphere. Are you here for the same?"

The starger dismissed Jet's apology and even complimented the dog which of course made it's tail wag that much more as he hopped up and down on his front legs. With all the excitement Cu was having a hard time keeping still. It howled again, although a little louder this time, wondering if Sylveon will copy him this time around.

After the quick question, the stranger gave a pretty fancy answer. Well fancy compared to Jet and his reasons. "Yeah pretty much the same." He said glancing at the ivysaur he gestured to. The Kecleon jusr wandered off under everyone's noses while the Ivysaur seemed to inch closer. Jet took out a pokeball, having an inkling of catch it but before he could, his Arcanine pounced on the grass type. He was way to over eager and seeing a new pokemon friend he hoped right into action! Although he did end up using Play Rough in his enthusiasm causing the pokemon to fall over and tumble along the ground. It got back up and sighed, seeing that the fire type didn't mean to hurt it. So it picked itself back up and started to shake it's leaves lightly, it's green skin glowed softly while it used synthesis to heal it's minor injuries. While it did, Jet took his opportunity to try and catch it. While it was kind of a dick move to do it under the pokemon's nose, it did seem to have some interest in the pair of humans and their pokemon so maybe it wanted to stay and join in on the fun? Well regardless the pokemon was caught and it was just back to him and the stranger. "My name is Jet by the way." he said stuffing his hands in his pockets while Arcanine went back over to the Sylveon. He didn't want to just ask the guy for his name since the over thinking rocket thought it might be suspicious and if he just gave him his own name then it would likely draw the suspicion off of him! Full proof plan.
+catching ivysaur!

Unfortunately for the Arcanine, Florian's Sylveon hasn't caught onto the fact that the fire-type sees this as a game. He seems perfectly content and even amused to watch the dog's antics, but the howl is not reciprocated.

Florian winces sympathetically when Arcanine gets side-tracked by an Ivysaur and bowls it over in an attempt to make a new friend. He's starting to understand what the stranger had meant when he'd implied his Pokemon was a little slow. At least the Ivysaur seems to be the forgiving sort; Florian smiles at the sight, and tilts his head in acknowledgement when a name is given.

"Florian!" he returns. "The Sylveon is Joli."

Hearing his name, Joli flicks his large ears and lets out an excited chirp.

Unfortunately, the Arcanine wasn't the only Pokemon prone to distraction. Joli loved nothing more than to chase birds and butterflies for sport, and upon seeing a Farfetch'd waddling through the route with leek in tow, he crouches down and starts to wiggle his rump.

"Oh, Jo, I wouldn't—"

Joli pounces and Farfetch'd dodges out of the way with surprising agility, whirling around and wielding her leak like a leafy blade to smack the offender between his ears. Sylveon looks more affronted than hurt, and Florian covers his mouth to suppress his laughter.

"I am sorry about him," he says to the bird, apologising for his Pokemon a second time in a short span. "He likes to play, but he won't hurt you. Especially not now! Your aim is impeccable."

She preens herself at the compliment, fluffing up her feathers.

"I bet a bird as brave as you gets bored of this easy route, huh?" She perks up, and he pulls out a Pokeball. "Why don't you tag along?"


catching Farfetch'd!
