TRAINER

Name: Emiko Touko
Age: 18
Height: 5' 7"
Weight: 130lbs.
Hometown: Nuvema

Short History: Emiko has always wanted to become a Pokémon trainer. When Professor Juniper gave her the chance to set out on her own adventure to become a renowned trainer, she was more than jumping at the chance to do so. Now she travels throughout Ruula in the hopes of collecting every single Pokémon in existence.

Favorite TV show: Koukan Talk! She just loves sprinkling Japanese words and phrases into her speech!

Her ideal world is one where Pokémon and Humans have nothing to fear from one another. Man will always begrudge his fellow man, but as long as they can fully trust their partners, anything is possible.

"Ack!" Emiko pulled at her brown hair and stamped her foot down on the grass. A few people stared at the girl but continued on to the real attractions of Nimbasa City. The new trainer planted her hands down on her hips and looked up at the tree.

There was a purrloin pacing back and forth, playing with its trainer. It seemed to be enjoying itself and also seemed to refuse to come down.

"You get down here, right now," Emiko commanded her pokemon. It responded by sitting on its haunches and licking its paw. Emiko threw her hands into the air and waved them around comically while shouting, "Why do you do this to meee! I am your trainer! You're supposed to listen to me!"

The pokemon trainer rushed up to the tree and began climbing up the trunk. The purrloin just looked curiously down at its trainer. Emiko failed to climb even a few feet and slid down the three to land on her backside with an "oof!".

As Emiko attempted to reach her pokemon, a nearby shadow floated up to the top of the tree. It was a Mismagius, which cheerfully commented, "Miiiiis!" to the Purrloin. That meant something along the lines of, "Your trainer is silly!"

Following the Mismagius was a male who appeared to be the same age as Emiko. However, his hair was long and his face lacked the hardness of a male. Likely, he could be mistaken for a girl, and his ambiguous tone didn't help that much either. He strolled over to the girl, smiling sheepishly and reaching his hand down towards her.

"You okay there? That looked like a rough fall."

Emiko looked up at the voice and blushed beet red. She was not embarrassed because the person was cute but because she could not tell if it was a boy or a girl. Even their voice wasn't exactly a hint toward the person's gender. It didn't help that Emiko was caught failing as a trainer.

"Thanks," Emiko said, laughing nervously. She took the offered hand and pulled herself up. Emiko reached around behind her and wiped off the seat of her shorts. She shot a nasty look up at her Purrloin. It pur-purred at Emiko.

Then Emiko noticed the Mismagius and looked back to the... er girl, no, the boy; the trainer.

"Is that your Mismagius?"

Alexis laughed softly, trying to cover for what he assumed she was embarrassed about. "Don't worry about it, I'm pretty sure everyone falls on their behind every once in a while." The girl seemed nice enough, which was a relief. Not everyone was amiable, though a decent amount were.

He followed her look up to the tree, grinning a bit. "Yeah, she's mine. Really friendly, so I'm not surprised that she decided to just go on up there. Makes a lot of trouble for me."

His gaze came back down to her and he asked, "So what brings you here?" Realizing that the question might've been unclear, he quickly added, "Er, I mean the city, not the tree."

The Purrloin batted its eyes at the Mismagius, attempting to charm the other pokemon.

"What brings me to the city?" Emiko repeated the question. "Um, well, I'm a trainer and I was out to catch some pokemon but that's kind of hard to do when yours is stuck up in a tree and won't come down!" By the end of her answer Emiko was staring up at the tree, yelling at her Purrloin. It just looked down at her as if nothing was wrong.

Emiko hit her palm against her forehead and groaned. This was an impossible situation.

"How am I ever to become a pokemon collector and a great trainer if I can't even make my purrloin come down a tree."

The Mismagius tilted its head at the Purrloin, seemingly unaffected. She simply gave a bright smile, bouncing up and down.

Alexis chuckled. "Well, you're not going to find anything in the city to catch. I'm kidding, though. I understand. But hey, catching and training isn't everything." He glanced up at the Purrloin, quirking an eyebrow at it.

"Well, sometimes you just have to learn to listen to your pokemon. Maybe it's telling you to relax," he quipped, jabbing a finger towards the towering ferris wheel nearby. "I mean, come on now, there's an amusement park right there, and I'm betting you haven't checked it out at all, yet. Take the day off."

"Trainers can have fun too, right?" In a moment of surprise, the trainer realized he hadn't introduced himself. "Anyway, I'm Alexis. You can call me Lexi too, if you want." His hand reached out to her again, though this time he wasn't lifting her up.

Alexis. Lexi. Totally a girl. Emiko sniffed and shook Alexis's hand before introducing herself too. "Emiko Touko. I'm from Nuvema and that is Kit-Kit," she said as she pointed up at the Purrloin.

"And I can't take a break if I want to collect every single species and evolution of pokemon! If I take breaks before I know it I will grow old and not be able to travel around like this, you know?"

"Kit-Kit, please come down?" Emiko asked, almost giving up on her pokemon. The Purrloin looked down at Emiko and then hopped down out of the tree. Emiko caught it in her hands and held the pokemon close to her chest, hugging it.

"So I have to ask..." Emiko said, blushing bright red again. "Are you a girl or a boy because I really can't tell."

"Nice to meet you, Emiko. I'm from the Kanto region, so a bit off from home. Anyway, that's Alice," he introduced, nodding to the bubbly Mismagius above."

"Well, being a trainer is about experiencing new things and seeing new places too! What's the worth of having everything when you can't remember anything special about where you discovered it?"

As the Purrloin finally deigned to descend, Alice followed suit, floating back down to Alexis' side. "There you go, but I still think she was trying to make a point."

At her question, he exhaled in a sigh, scratching his head. With a knowing grin, he replied, "I'm a guy. I know, I get that a lot. Name doesn't help much either, but it's my name. I usually have to mention it whenever I meet someone, but it slipped my mind this time." A pointed glance was directed at the tree. "Can't imagine why."

Emiko reached up and straightened her hat with the Pokemon League symbol emblazoned on it. The Purrloin poked at Emiko's chest with a claw attempting to get her attention. The trainer looked down and then reached to open the satchel that hung on her shoulder. Kit-Kit immediately dove into the bag and rummaged around for treats.

"I didn't mean to offend you!" Emiko defensively said. "It's just that I couldn't figure it out and I didn't want to assume the entire time and--"

Emiko gestured to an ice cream vendor. "Can I buy you some ice cream to apologize?"

Alice, watching the other trainer and Kit-Kit, drew towards Alexis, who gave her a pat on the head. "You know I don't have any good in my bag. Guess I'm just not a good guy like that."

He raised his hands and shook them, laughing again. "No, no, you didn't offend me. Like I said, I get it a lot. I'm used to it, so don't worry so much about it."

"But then again, I guess I won't turn down free ice cream. Sure, sounds good," the male snickered and brushed his hair back. "Though it's usually guys who are asking me something like that. Nice to have a change every once in a while."

Maybe if you got a hair cut they wouldn't think you were a girl, Emiko thought to herself. She wanted to say it aloud but she knew that would be rude. After all, the guy seemed nice, friendly, and good to his pokemon. It would be bad to start saying the things that she thought.

"Ever think about getting a hair cut?" Emiko asked. Well, at least she had rephrased it to not sound so rude. She walked over to the vendor and bought herself an ice cream and then told Alexis to choose whatever he wanted. Emiko paid the vendor and chowed down on her pink ice cream bar.

"So do you 'ave anymore 'okemons?" she asked Alexis with her mouth full of ice cream.

Unaware of her thoughts, Alexis wondered about the girl. She seemed really intent on her goal of catching everything, before she became old, at that. A bit ditzy, perhaps, thought that might have just been brought on by the situation and first appearances. At least he wouldn't be bored today.

"Yeah, I have," he replied. "it didn't help much. I don't think much would, short of me shaving my head. Not going to do that. At this point, it's just a part of me, y'know?" His eyes rolled in their sockets. "I know, that sounds stupid." Nodding his thanks to Emiko, he chose something nice and easy, a vanilla ice cream cone.

As he slowly licked at it, the sound of her trying to speak with her mouth full elicited a giggle from him. "Yeah, I do. It'd take a while to list them, but my Charizard has been with me since I began. Not like I can really walk around town with her, though."

"How about you?"

Once more Emiko turned beet red in the face. She only had the one pokemon, her dear Purrloin. Alexis said that he had too many to name them off! She was not about to let this stranger think that she was a loser trainer.

"I, uh, have loads, mhm," Emiko said without the ice cream in her mouth. "I just carry around Kit-Kit because she was my first too. I keep all the others in the Poke Center. If I carried them all around with me, whew! I would be drowning up to my eyeballs in pokeballs, if you know what I mean!"

The Purrloin poked its head out of Emiko's satchel and rolled its eyes. Carefully it climbed out of it and sneakily made its way over to Alexis's bag. A hand slipped inside as it stood on both of its feet, trying to steal something good.

This time, her blush was clearly noticeable, though Alexis had no idea why she would be flustered. In reality, he didn't have that many, but a list was a list, and lists were boring. Instead, he figured just naming his starter would be fine.

"Mmm..hmm," he said suspiciously, a smile slowly spreading across his face. "Drowning in them, huh?" His expression showed that he was onto her, since there were a few indications that she was lying, but he played along. "Well, why don't we just lazily make our way to the Center. I'd like to meet anything interesting you've caught."

The bag in question, as mentioned earlier, was devoid of most edible things. The most the Purrloin would find would be a few Oran berries near the bottom. Otherwise, there was not much else.

Emiko almost inhaled her ice cream bar and her eyes almost popped out from her skull. Alexis had suggested going to the center to see her pokemon, pokemon that didn't exist! She had to distract him and quick! Kit-Kit took the moment to steal the Oran berries from the bag.

"Well, uh, I actually wanted to go to the center but I really wanted to go and ride the Ferris Wheel before I have to leave Nimbasa. You know, to go train..." Her heart pounded in her chest. Emiko hated lying but there was no way she was going to look bad in front of a cute boy.

Cute?

Emiko blinked. Several times.

"Wanna come? Maybe we will go after the ride!" Emiko was grasping at straws but it seemed to be working!

Alexis pretended not to notice the expression on her face and turned his attention to his ice cream to stifle a laugh. It wasn't exactly the nicest thing to mess with someone, but it was definitely amusing. It didn't hurt that she was quite pretty as well. Just because he looked like a girl didn't mean that he wasn't still a guy.

"Oh, yeah? Well, that's what I suggested in the first place so it sounds good to me. And of course I'll come, riding the Ferris wheel alone just isn't quite the same experience," he replied easily. At this point, his ice cream was mostly gone and he took the brief moment to finish off his ice cream. The paper cone was promptly crumpled up and tossed nicely into a trash can.

The trainer stood and dusted himself off, glancing at Emiko. "Alright then, shall we?"

Kit-Kit chirped merrily with oran berries in its hands. It walked over to Emiko and leaped gracefully back into her satchel. Emiko was a trainer that did not believe keeping her pokemon curled up in pokeballs all the time. She would rather them walk around outside with her, free and able to actually breathe. Emiko did not know the mechanics of a pokeball but she was sure it couldn't be too comfortable inside of one.

Emiko bit off the last bit of her ice cream and gasped as it hit her throat. The coolness of the treat caused the trainer to have brainfreeze. She palmed her forehead again and held up her other hand to tell Alexis to wait just a moment. Her face screwed up in pain but, eventually, it subsided back to normal.

"You did not suggest that we, together, go check out the Ferris Wheel," Emiko said. "You said that my pokemon was perhaps telling me to take the day off and you mentioned the Ferris Wheel. There is a difference." The trainer patted her bag to make sure Kit-Kit was inside.

"For the record, this is not a date no matter what it looks like. I barely even know you," Emiko said as she began walking towards the massive Ferris Wheel in the distance.

Alexis' eyebrow rose as he watched Kit-Kit walk away with the Oran berries. The berries that it had not had previously. He eyed his bag, which was now open, and made the simple deduction. With a shrug, he told the Purrloin, "Those have been in there a while. Be careful you don't get sick." In reality, the berries were fresh and fine, but he wasn't going to let the cat get away scot-free.

Emiko's brainfreeze prompted another snicker from him. "I think you ate that a bit too quickly. Maybe you should slow down there, tiger," he commented playfully. "You're not in that much of a rush, are you?"

"And no, I didn't. Don't get all caught up in semantics. I said you maybe want to check out the Ferris wheel and now you're checking out the Ferris wheel. Same difference," he replied, nodding to Alice. She returned the nod, as upbeat as ever. They had ridden the wheel already, but obviously not with anyone else.

"It is what it is," Alexis remarked as he walked alongside her. "Whatever you choose to tell yourself. I, for one, do not mind calling it a date. After all, that is just two people doing something together, right?"

"If you consider this a date then we're doing it all backwards," Emiko quipped. "The guy is supposed to buy the treats and ask the girl if she wants to ride the Ferris Wheel, and before all of that there is supposed to be dinner and a theater show. You don't know how to date."

"Also, if we are on a date it is rude to listen to headphones while someone is trying to hold a conversation with you," Emiko stated. He had had the things on the entire time though it didn't seem like Alexis had a problem hearing her. She was just trying to distract him in enough conversation that he would not remember about her fib on her pokemon.

Emiko blew a bubble from the gum that was hidden inside her popsicle.

"Ah, but see, the beauty is that you're not considering this a date, so it's fine," Alexis answered cheerfully. "But if you'd like, we can have dinner after, just in time to catch the romantic sunset. And I don't know where the theater show comes in. Don't usually hear about that being commonplace in dates. I thought it was supposed to be a movie."

"Besides, you're not trying," he shot back lightly, "we're talking, aren't we? But eh, as the lady says." Deftly, he pulled the headphones from his ears, letting them hang at his neck. The lie didn't matter at all to him. His main goal was to show her that having some fun was okay.

"And hey, I'll even buy the tickets for the Ferris wheel. But remember, it's not a date."
