You arrive at the Pokemon Lab on the edge of a new frontier— miles of unexplored wilderness that hide secrets, corrupted Pokémon, and unknown potential. Outpost 1 is little more than a tent city encircling the Research Lab. Professor Ash, your region professor, has been studying the area with her assistants in preparation for receiving new explorers. As you are teleported from the starting screen into the Lab, a tall woman with sleek silver hair straightens up from her desk. "Perfect timing," she says, cool and collected. "I just received your details. pawbrey pawtini , was it? I gather you're here to apply for your Starter Pokemon." Your eyes are drawn to the display case behind her, where 24 sealed Pokeballs wait quietly behind the glass. Picking up a clipboard, Ash gestures for you to take a seat across from her at the desk. "Before I assign you a partner, I need to confirm a few details of your personality," she says, tone measured. "Pokemon are complex creatures. It's essential to match them with their trainers correctly. If you don't mind, I'd just like to ask you a few questions." She clicks her pen, offering you a reassuring smile. "Don't think of it like 'an interview.' Think of it like... a game." pawbrey pawtini : REPLY TO START THE INTERVIEW!

Especially since he wasn't exactly supposed to have a copy of it yet. It was kind of an open secret that people were proxying their location in order to get to play but he didn't feel like streaming that experience. He blinked back into reality as he realized that the npc was asking him if he was ready to begin an interview to get his starter Pokemon. A different experience than he had heard about from Furrlicity Purrfection. They would have to swap notes later on the differences. He assumed it was because the beta was moving right a long as planned. But with a grin that could hopefully win over at least a few hearts he nodded, excited to get started in earnest. "Of course! I love games!" If he wanted to be loveable then one of the easiest ways to do that was of course be earnest... and maybe a little bit dumb. That was popular online nowadays. Big guys who said what they wanted without thinking and smiled a lot. Muscles were popular. So that's what he had built. "I'll answer the questions the best I can! I'm sure whatever Pokemon I get will be the best partner for me though!" Not that it mattered too much.

She seems more interested in the folds of his mind though, and offers him a thin yet sturdy chair while they complete the quiz. "I enjoy games too," she says, with the manner of a doctor agreeing simply to put a patient at ease. "Though I find that the best ones can rarely be played more than once. Often a variable needs to change to bring excitement back into the situation." She checks her thin watch. "Plenty of time. Shall we begin?"

But he was pretty sure it wouldn't matter in the long run. A Pokemon was a Pokemon. And he needed one that fit with the facade he was putting up. Playing a character and all of that. If he answered truthfully then someone might see through him. And he didn't want that. "Puns are fun, though some of them can be hurtful at times if you're not careful." "I suppose I just have to try again when I make a mistake and learn from what I did wrong! And I apologize for if I've messed it up for anyone else! But all anyone can do is try and try again!" "I... don't think so? I guess I say 'do your best' a lot?" That last one wasn't exactly a lie. It was what he told Furrlicity a lot when they chatted and needed encouragement. It was a generic answer but with the personality he was playing that was all he really needed.

They are the genuine words of a kind character, the kind who seldom graces her lab, but Professor Ash does not soften. She treats each response with the same level of professional seriousness, as if even your preferred catchphrase is significant in her calculations. "Thank you, pawbrey pawtini," she says simply once the burly cat-man is finished. She checks the time on a thin wristwatch, tapping her chin with the end of her pen. "That's all the data I need for now." She tears off the sheet of paper she was writing on and swivels in her chair, standing up in a smooth, fluid motion. She crosses to the display case, unlocking it with a satisfying click. After consulting her notes one more time, Ash selects a single Pokeball from the case and returns, settling back at her desk. "Based on your personality profile, I've determined this will be the ideal starter Pokemon for you," she says, tone even, then sets the Pokeball in your hands. On the front is a piece of white tape with the name of the Pokemon written in precise, angular letters. Interview complete! reply and click 'retreat' to end your lab thread.

It was soft. And cute. He liked it a lot so far. It was a good match. Though for playing someone like this he was expecting something bigger and stronger. Something that spit fire or something. But maybe the A.I. could somehow see through his facade of a personality to give him something better suited to his needs. It was cute... He liked cute. Beaming in the game he seemed more than pleased though, absently patting the creature on the head while he thought of names for the grass bird. "Thank you! I'll take good care of it!" At least as good care as you could a bird that was digital and also not real. But he didn't need to think about that right now.

Professor Ash watches you take the Pokeball. She nods once in approval. "Congratulations, pawbrey pawtini. You are now— officially— a Pokemon Trainer. Your UI should now be fully activated, and you now have the ability to catch wild Pokemon. You will also be approached by people asking for your assistance, so allow me to be the first. I have a package that needs delivering." Professor Ash indicates a parcel sitting on her otherwise immaculate table. She tilts her arm, checking the time on a thin wristwatch. "If you can find the recipient before 4pm it would be much appreciated. There are some perishables within." Professor Ash hands pawbrey pawtini a Parcel for delivery! "The name and address are on the label. It shouldn't take more than an hour," she says with a light, weary sigh. You notice a slight tug at the corner of Ash's mouth. A smile at a private joke. "Remember to also stop by your house and say goodbye to your Mother. I'm sure she will miss you greatly, even if you are only gone for the afternoon." Congrats! Rowlet has been added to pawbrey pawtini's box!
