First Arrivals

[Cricket]

Dmtiriy was quick to arrive when he realized there was a place to actually dump pokemon legally. His mind flashed to both Kiz and Neon, grimacing when he took back the thoughts for Kiz. He needed to trainer her. As for the baby Chimchar, that could wait.
He knelt down and released the fire pokemon. The Luxury ball let out the baby pokemon who eyed the place quietly. Without a glance his way and without a bye or thanks or anything, she bolted off towards it gleefully. Dmitriy was quick to release the Typlosion who chuckled and, with a "Thank you" followed after his fellow fire types. He needed someone to look after her.
He watched them run off, shaking his head and wishing for the best. Once they had disappeared completely from view he turned and walked away. He would come back later for them.

Brandon looked excited as he held the two pokemon he planned to leave. He glanced around for Molly, since she said she'd meet him there once she took care of something. She didn't seem to be here.
It didn't matter. He'd meet up with her after he dropped them off if he needed to. Surely she wouldn't go off without him.
He didn't think about this any longer as he tossed the two pokeballs in the air, releasing the water and ground type pokemon. The Cubone glanced around uneasily, not sure if she really wanted to be social. Beside her the Poliwag looked slightly uniterested, but willing to try it if her trainer requested.
<It's okay, go on guys. I'm sure you'll have fun.> Brandon said, shooing them off with his hands. The Cubone looked slightly disapproving of his dismissal but left without another word. The Poliwag didn't bother with disapproval, shooting off at his command like the loyal water type she'd always been.
Brandon looked disappointed. He had expected them to be excited about the fun place.

Thump, thump, thump
The noise of a galloping creature could be heard from a distance to the drop off. A blue lion padded steadily through the the grass, knocking up dirt sometimes as he dashed forward. 
He wasn't going his fastest, since a boy dressed up like a Riolu and an actual Riolu hung on to the topof his body.

Harry pulled on the Luxray's spikey mane, yelling, "Heey, stop here, heeeey! You'll go right past it if you don't stop!> The boy squeaked out the last words since at that moment, the Luxray came to a abrupt stop. Harry an Hodoro jostled a bit, but managed to stay on.
But the cat laid down anyway, making Harry and his Riolu get off by force.
<Oh man, thank you Leo!> Harry had named him that because the lion seemed so majestic, so mystical... Leo was part of the zodiac signs, and according to his sister it was his. 

Harry tottered a bit as he stepped away from him. He let out a groan. "Oooooh.. My stomach hurts. I hope I don't hurl my breakfast.."
Leo's eyes began glowing as he looked up from his self cleansing, looking up and down Harry's body. He then went back to licking his fur. <Just make sure you don't get waffle chunks in my fur.>
Harry froze. "I never said what I had for breakfast."
Leo stretched boredly, calmly replying. <I know. I can see it.>

It took a moment for Harry to understand what he meant. His eyes widened, and he gasped in awe and hopped about in excitement. "Whaaaat? That is so awesome! Tell me something else! Can you see yesterday's hotdog?"
Hodoro tugged on his shirt. <Harry.. We gotta get going.>
Harry sighed, but agreed, and let lose his Seviper as well. Fang slither stealthily on the ground, giving his trainer a not-so-reassuring smile with his jagged fangs.
Harry did not smile back, and instead told his Luxray to keep an eye on him. "And you don't have to keep an eye inside of him, just on his flesh.. And stuff.. You get what I mean."

Leo nodded, and Harry waved goodbye and walked away with his inseparable Riolu.

"Steady, steady.. And.. Good."
Reidel sat uncomfortably on the back of a Honchkrow, trying his best to get a smooth landing on the ground.
It wasn't working too well.
The Ampharos morph leaped off of Watson, staggering a bit on shaky legs. "Remind me to bring Asprin next time," he groaned as he held his head and glanced around.
From what it seemed, this paradise place seemed cozy enough for his pokemon. It's free, so whatever.

Reidel released his Hoothoot and his Aron, both staring strangely at their surroundings.
"Scat," Reidel said with a gentle kick. Ruby spun her body around, flapped spontaneously, and began to skip off in the wrong direction of the paradise. <Bye Daddy!>
Reidel groaned and rubbed his eyes exhaustedly. Flint sent him a sympathetic look. <I'll watch her,> he said as he went to get the baby bird.

Reidel gave a satisfied sigh. Flint and Ruby were fine, and Watson.. He knew he to take care of himself. He was already off at this point. Reidel strode off, whistling a tune that reflected his relief of not having to worry about the three creatures.
Sure, it might be duty dodging, but I'm about to lose my mind caring for so many. I need a break.

Molly let out a sigh as she stopped at Pokemon Paradise. She didn't want to leave Taygete here since the Sandshrew was important for her in the desert, and Merope...well, the Swalot probably wouldn't do much except sit around. But she wanted to get some feedback from it. So, she let out the Smeargle she had recently received. He looked back up at her curiously.
<You're my trainer?> he asked, before Molly had a chance to say anything. Smiling a bit, she nodded.
"Yep! I need a name for you, though..." she frowned. It couldn't be a name from the Pleiades like Taygete and Merope, they were all female...something male...
<I would appreciate the name of an artist.>
"Huh? Oh...I guess that makes sense. Artists, artists..." Molly lifted her head, a hand to her chin. She'd never paid attention to art, really. She sucked at it. The only artists she knew were the easy ones like...Picasso.
Oh yeah! That Jotetsu guy...
"How about Jotetsu? Is that a good name?"
<Perfect,> the Smeargle grinned, clearly happy about it. He glanced sideways at the large place he was standing in front of, reading the sign quickly.
<Pokemon Paradise? What's->
"Just go have fun." Molly laughed. "I want to know how good of a place it is."
The Smeargle shrugged and turned around, walking into the place on two feet, his tail swishing back and forth behind him, drops of green paint hitting the ground as he left.
Letting out a sigh, Molly stretched her arms above her and left.

Luke paused once he got to the Pokemon Paradise. He wanted someone to go in, but...who?
Not Thorne... he thought immediately. The Cacturne would probably end up shutting the place down. Taraji he wanted to keep with him...being his starter, he was closest to the Tropius out of all of them...So that left Shaoran.
With a large flash of red light, the Entei was let out. It looked down at Luke expectantly.
<Yes?>
"Um..." Luke laughed nervously, scratching the back of his neck. "I wanna give you a break I guess?" he pointed to the large Pokemon Paradise sign. The pokemon followed his gesture and then nodded.
<If that is what you wish.>
"Heheh...yeah. Go have fun. I'll be back later on to pick you up, ok...?"
<Alright.> And he bounded off.
Luke watched him leave, and then turned around, staring back at the road in front of him. Would Shaoran actually have fun...? Well...who knew. Hopefully he would...

"And if anyone picks on you, tell me and I'll beat them up for ya!"
<Y-yeah->
"Make sure you tell me! I don't care if they pressure you! You're MY pokemon!" Imogene put her hands on her hips proudly, smiling into the sun before looking back down at the Ekans who was staring absently at her through white eyes.
<Right...sure.>
"But don't be too shy!" the trainer added, crouching down. "Otherwise you won't meet anyone! Alright, ya think you're ready?"
<I have been for the past 10 minutes...>
"That's what I like to hear!" Imogene beamed, standing up straight again. "Go for it!"
For such a flamboyent pep-talk, the Ekans slithered slowly into the paradise, feeling her way around carefully and listening to the different noises that filled it. She could just imagine what it looked like. She did used to be able to see, at least. Still, it only made her more jealous of the fact that she couldn't anymore...

White smiled as he looked up at the Pokemon Paradise. What a good idea. And he was positive he knew two pokemon who would absolutely love it...
Tossing two pokeballs up into the air, tendrils of red light expanded into two pokemon appeared, looking around expectantly.
<What's this?> the Mudkip asked, raising an eyebrow as it faced the large entrance and wagged it's little orange tail back and forth as if it was a puppy.
"Pokemon Paradise," White said, looking up at the sign and folding his arms with a grin. "You guys can both go have fun and take a break."
<We can just...go?> the little blue pokemon asked. White nodded, looking back down at him.
<AWESOME!> and then he bounded off, disappearing into the trees. A scoff came from in front of the gym leader where the other pokemon had come out.
<Psh. What is this? The place where you dump pokemon that piss you off?>
"Kill him...he pisses you off...leave him and never come back...I heard they kill the ones that are left behind..."
White lifted a hand to his head and scratched it, wincing. His crimson eyes opened with a tint of anger in them.
"Just go and look after Splash."
<That's such a stupid name. Splash. I like mine much better.>
"Now's your chance...tell him how much you hate him..."
Godamn it, I don't hate him!
"Come on," White smiled faintly, having some troubles doing so. He had a headache already. "Go have fun. You know how to do that, don't you, Shikimou?"
<Alright, alright...I guess I'll show Splash how a real water pokemon swims.> he grinned, and scuttled off, following the trail the Mudkip had left.
Letting out a sigh, White watched him leave and then turned back around. He had a lot of work to do on his gym still; it'd be nice to get those two out of the way.
