"Yeah, that works," Liam said before beginning his walk down towards the PokeCatchers HQ, "Let's go."

As they began turning around and heading towards their destination, Penny rubbed his light blue chin, "So ya think I can go into a different PokeBall than the one I used with Deante? Is that possible?"

While Sophie took Penny to the Pokemon Center, Liam and Skyva walked down the crowded Castelia City streets they've recently started calling home. The Cinccino was already fairly familiar with the city before he started helping out the PokeCatchers, but since then, he's retained a perfect memory of the layout, including the hidden passageways and short cuts they've used time and time again to catch the escaping Pokemon. The tall buildings that seemed to swallow them now acted as pillars of guidance, telling him where he was at and where he needed to go.

This time around, they marched right up to one of the smaller skyscrapers, the familiar black sleek building of PokeCatcher HQ. They didn't even hesitate, pushing the door open with practiced force and walking into the bland front desk area where their assignment coordinator was organizing papers and placing them in his filing cabinet.

They both were used to Chuck at this point, a gruff man who was probably ten years younger than he looked. His salt and pepper hair was usually slicked back with excessive amounts of hair gel, his brown, sunken eyes always communicated the lack of sleep he got. His outfit was as bland as the rest of the place, a blue collar man with a blue collar job. He wasn't smoking this time, at least, but that didn't give anyone entering the reprieve of lingering cigarette smoke that was plastered all over the walls. Besides, his attempts usually lasted about a week and this would probably be no exception.

"No dice this time 'round?" he asked earnestly, referring to the lack of a Panpour being presented in front of him. There was a hint of surprise in his voice and that was because Skyva, Sophie, and Liam were rising in popularity at PokeCatchers HQ due to their inspiring efficiency and high success rate. A failed case happened very rarely when taken on by these three.
