"A better man? Hmph, I'll show him... I'll show them all... I will be a better trainer than them..."
Jace Garrett thought to himself as he wandered down the path that would lead him to the Nirven Laboratory. The last words he heard from his father were cold ones, scolding him to only return when he became a 'better man'. Well, it wasn't his fault that he was so cold-hearted. His sister died and when they moved to Hoenn, he didn't get along with the locals. Besides, it felt so good to have such power over people by bullying them.
After leaving home, Jace decided to come to the Laokia region to become a Pokemon trainer. His parents were powerful Dragon trainers, sp he wanted to surpass their excellence. If he would follow in their footsteps and become a Dragon Trainer like them, Jace wasn't sure.
Reaching the Laboratory, Jace stopped before the door, observing the building before knocking on the door a few times. Great, he would have to face a person in order to obtain a Pokemon. When it came to socializing, Jace was horrible at it. He was very bitter towards people and generally let mean comments slip out of his mouth even in the most basic conversations.
Well, once he got past this place, it would be smooth sailing from here, Jace hoped.

The lab door was opened, not by the Professor, but by a Vaporeon. The Water-type looked up at Jace curiously. <Hello! You must be here to get a Pokemon. I must apologize. There was an emergency with some Pokemon and Professor Tarei went out to help them. I think they were fueding over an apple or something... So, I'll help you. Come on in,> she said happily, moving aside to allow Jace entry.
The laqb was a little messy, but not too bad. In fact, it looked as if it had recenty been cleaned. A Ghastly was hovering a couple inches above a shelf that happened to be lined with Pokeballs. [/sub]

Jace stepped back as ther door opened, expecting to be greeted by a Professor. However, when saw no one in front of the door, confusion filled his face. Was this some kind of joke? Jace was about to turn around when he heard the Vaporeon speak to him.
He was mildly startled when the Water Pokemon spoke up, his eyes making contact with the creature down before him. Oh, so that's what opened the door. So, the Professor was busy with some Pokemon? Hmph. Jace's expression returned to its standard serious one as the male stepped inside.
Well, at least he wouldn't have to be dealing with any people here. He'd rather have a Pokemon help him out. When he stepped inside, he took note of the state of the inside of the building. It was a bit messy, but whatever. He could still see the shelves of Pokeballs.
Now, which Pokemon did he want. He had never really thought about it on his way here. But, he decided not to be a Dragon trainer like his parents. Even though Dragons were respectable Pokemon, he wanted to be different from his parents.
" Let's see... Would you happen to have any Turtwigs? "
Jace questioned the Vaporeon, turning towards the Water Pokemon. He wanted to try out one of those Sinnoh Pokemon that he had heard about. He was sure that with lots of training that this Pokemon would grow up strong and trustworthy.

Vierna smiled at the quick reply. She nodded and started to go into a back room, but stopped as she thought of something. <Would you like any specific personality? We have so many Turtwigs that I'm sure I'll find one to your specifications.> she said kindly.
The serious expression upon Jace's face unsettled the Pokemon, but she didn't feel that he was evil or anything. She never lost her smile even for a moment, and she let her ridiculous qualms disappear. She was sure that he'd make a good trainer. [/sub]

" Mmm? I get to choose the personality? Well, alright. Do you have any Turtwigs that are brave and loyal then? "
Jace questioned, sounding a little less sharp and serious. Well, if there were so many Turtwigs like that Vaporeon said, then there must've been one that fit his description. He wanted his first Pokemon to reflect himself and be strong and loyal.
Even though Jace might've looked it, he really wasn't a bad guy - towards Pokemon anyways. He watched as the Vaporeon continued to wear that cheerful and welcoming smile, not bothered by the fact that the Pokemon seemed a little overly happy.

Vierna smiled and nodded again. She offered Jace a wink before disappearing behing the shelf of pokeballs and into the back room. <Hmmm, let's see,> she mumbled, loudly enough that her voice drifted out to Jace.
She returned with a triumphant look upon her face. She was carrying a Pokeball in her mouth and a Starter Pack on her tail. The pokeball looked a little strange. It was engraved with what looked like a leaf, but it was bluish in color. <I found a Turtwig that matched your specification, but he is a shiny. I hope that's alright,> Vierna said as she handed the ball to Jace. Then the Vaporeon handed the trainer his starter pack as well.

Jace crossed his arms as he patiently waited for the Vaporeon to find his Pokemon. He didn't have much patience, but he tried to not let that show. He was going to try to not be so snappish and this was going to be the place where he started.
Seeing the Vaporeon return with the Pokeball, the male's eyes lit up a bit when she announced that the Pokemon was shiny. Weren't shiny Pokemon rare? Hmm, this was turning out better than he first planned.
" Thank you. "
Jace said simply, taking the Pokeball and the starter pack from the Professor's Pokemon. He attatched the Pokeball to his belt, then turned to leave. He glanced back at the Water Pokemon, briefly smiling and waving before heading for the door and exiting the building.
