WELCOME TO THE SINNOH REGION, a massive island rich with exploration and Pokemon. Legends say that Sinnoh was the very first Pokemon region to come into being;
and so the nefarious Team Galactic has begun searching for the time and space Pokemon in an effort to destroy and recreate the entire Pokemon Universe. Will you step up, earn your badges,
and fight to defend the world? Or do you believe in Galactic ideals, wishing to follow their efforts in starting anew?
[ 08.15 ] Welcome to Sinnoh! Team Rocket have arrived in Sinnoh and have left a very daunting message here. With the introduction of a new class comes another promo!
Check out the rocket promotion here and stay tuned for many more exciting events!
major news alert!
witness reports from all over the region has been flooding in about strange happenings at the three lakes. what's more perplexing is that these occurrences seem to be happening spontaneously at the lakes. just moments ago, a burst of light erupted at the locations and residents in the vicinity have reported that the lake-side pokemon have turned aggressive and attack on sight.
However, there have been rumours and sightings of the legendary lake trio which has had trainers flocking in from all over the region.
something great, something rubbish. there was no excuse as to why these ruins were ruins-- neglect is a powerful thing. unfortunately for solaceon town, ruins drew in hooligans, looters, addicts- anything, anyone that wanted to cause trouble would surely be found at a place just as broken as they were. enter alpha in full gear, war hero of kalos, queen of the desert-- well, not yet anyway. the battles she had been caught up in hadn't been much more than hit-and-runs, and criminals who thought they could get away stashing their shit in her desert. unbelievable, truly. the sun beats down now, the day at its peak. she welcomes the heat, as does the sandile next to her. once a partner, always a partner.
she doesn't miss a thing. litter? gone. stylus active, she's recruited her own help, the pokemon hiding from the blistering sun only coming out to assist in keeping their own environment healthy. dirty needles litter one corner. tch. removed, with haste.

julius wearing a t shirt and jeans, the sleeves rolled up and the little tuggable strings dangling pointlessly out of the top cut of the top. his hands stuffed in his pocket, he walks into solaceon ruins to do some soul searching. floaroma got burned down, people died, though not many. he wasn't a stranger to death, but having it happen close to him was unnerving. creepy, sad, and irritating all at once. vengeance was something he'd always wanted, but now he didn't know really what for. his house was gone. his eggs were gone. shit, everything was gone.
except the money he'd been wise enough to put in a bank, and the trainer's license he stuffed in his pockets when he had gone out. he'd stay in eterna for now. going back to jubilife was going to be difficult. but for now, solaceon and its emptiness appealed to him.
he wasn't too far down the ruins when he spotted a girl with her back to him, a stylus in hand and many pokemon dancing around her, collecting garbage, reminding him lightly of why he didn't really want to go back to the rangers. "glad to know the rangers are still...at it," he commented, announcing his presence to the girl. he tilted his head. he couldn't quite clearly see what she looked like from this angle, not with her back turned to him and the ranger getup eliminating everything else from sight.
Lately I'm not feeling like myself When I look into the glass I see someone else I hardly recognize this face I wear When I stare into her eyes I see no one there
"C'mon bud, just hang in there a little longer alright?" The poocheyena only grumbles now resigned to the procedure.
He's already applied the potion now it was just a matter of wrapping the small dog pokemon's hind legs. The cautious pokemon had done its fair share of damage to the ranger fresh bite marks and scratches, cover his hands and forearms now, if he hadn't gotten his shots prior they'd be cause for concern. Despite the pain the man smiles ignoring the semi-shallow marks after all he has a job to do.The pokemon had become somewhat docile concerning the trainer after awhile, but still it was apparent the dog pokemon didn't quite trust the man.
When the dog pokemon hears voices in the distance it's ears spike up almost immediately the pokemon wriggles in his arms on edge once again.
"Don't worry little dude I wont let 'em hurt you." His Treeko, who's been more than content to watch his trainer, scurries away in an attempt to find the newcomers.
"Be careful Xin!" the gecko pokemon nods before disappearing down further into the ruins. His only concern is whatever did this to the dark type pokemon was still in the area, not to say the wounds were particularly gruesome, but still leaving his ranger alone was very much concerning seeing as the man had a knack for getting into trouble.
"Welp nothing we can do about that, let's get you walking properly again aite?" And with that the ranger continues the procedure keeping a particular eye out for anything that might cause him or more importantly the poochyena harm.

sandile notices the visitor before she does, jaws opening as the thing squawks to alert her. Alpha immediately turns to attention- shoulders back, head up, back straight. Always proper, always prepared. Her voice comes off as assertive, but overall friendly. "There is no time to rest!" She offers the smallest of smiles as she dusts the dirt off of her hands. Suspicion of the stranger sits in the back of her mind but, as they say, innocent until proven guilty. "Visiting from another town to see the ruins? I apologize for the mess, we're doing out best to fix it."
Eyes leave him for a brief moment, catching sight of an approaching Treeko-- the pokemon is foreign here, a small frown tugs at her lips as she probes her brain. She had seen a treeko at international base, not too long ago.. surely it was just a coincidence. "It is a truly wonderful day for a walk. Excuse me." She offers a curt nod, stepping around the boy. The sandile hangs back, keeping an eye on the stranger as his trainer steps forward. Just over the peak of a hill she can see another in the area-- this one less suspicious as he assists a pokemon.
"Ranger!" she calls out, offering a salute lest he be a higher-up. She's not too sure about her course of action should he be a civilian, but Alpha could have sworn she caught glimpse of a badge. She is, admittedly, relieved to have assistance here-- there was only so much one woman could do. A whisper in her ear has her turn her head with a hm?, only to be faced with a shuppet. Her sandile immediately leaves Julius to come to her aid as the Shuppet's eyes begin to glow , the CURSE it begins to summon abruptly ended by Sandile's jumping CRUNCH. Alpha feels overwhelmed now-- she didn't want to take eyes off the stranger, and she didn't want to make a fool out of herself in front of a fellow cadet, should he be one. "Sandile, drop." she speaks quickly, cupping the bitten shuppet in her arms, quick to spray a potion on the pokemon. It didn't matter if it had attacked or not, it was still an equal. The pokemon had a change of heart, quickly warming up to the ranger, floating by her head even as she dismissed it.
It was pleasing.
But now she's caught between two people-- she picks Julius, deciding the other can approach if he wishes to. "My sincerest apologies, I had no intention of being rude to you."

he can hardly see her smile, and the girl comes off quickly as forceful, but in a good way, and polite, if not friendly. her tone is like its modulated to be the ideal of a ranger, and he thinks back to his own days ditching patrol for a nice smoke among others. ranger-ing did shape him up though, and seeing the girl in front of him with her cadet uniform makes him smile genuinely. "yeah, something like that." in reality he's looking for another place to stay. floaroma was..well...he waves to her as she passes, his attention brough to the sandile. "hi little fella, you must like this heat, huh?"
but then he hears the stiff salute and turns to see the new arrival.
instead, he's met with a quick scene out of a book- a shuppet appears, is knocked down and forced into friendly submission, turning his smile into a little grin. "you're intense, for a cadet," he calls, and shakes his head and waves his hand easily. the words may come off as condescending and a little out of place, given that the girl doesn't know who he was, but he doesn't really need to justify himself. probably. "no problem there." he face a face as though he's going to wince, but he doesn't. " you don't need to be so formal, you know." it's almost wince-worthy, but he can't blame the girl for excelling in what's expected of a cadet. hopefully she'll warm up, or something. he's just wandering at this point, but it would be nice to have someone to converse with. he can't say she's mean, though, so there's that. he just has too much of cass already to not want another person that's not so...assertive, for lack of better word.
Lately I'm not feeling like myself When I look into the glass I see someone else I hardly recognize this face I wear When I stare into her eyes I see no one there
When the poocheyena runs off into the woods he can't blame it. The appearance of the two strangers, even in the distance scared the dog pokemon immensely. Judging by the wounds he'd treated and the pokemon's intense aversion of humans he figured someone must have abused the pokemon before releasing him or something similar, it was a thought hat didn't sit well the ranger at all. However with the pokemon gone there's nothing the ranger can do about it now, he'd given the poocheyena adequate treatment and now could toward the other two humans perhaps they'd know more about pokemon abuse cases in the area, even if it was a stretch. As he stands the Treeko returns to him climbing on the man's shoulder.
The man jogs over to the group of four now giving a small salute to the boy and then the...
Oh.
He's seen her before at international base if only for a moment, the two hadn't even spoken, but he'd definitely remembered her. He couldn't really forget her for a number of reasons. Other rangers at base had spoken of her reliability and smarts among her many strengths, even as a cadet. It didn't exactly help that she was drop dead gorgeous.
He tries to find words standing awkwardly attempting to find what exactly to say,
"Howdy! I mean uh hey, Ven- Venti Zabac here! reporting for duty sir! I mean mam! I mean...sir mam?" The ranger would give a second salute his hand still bleeding from the poocheyena's bite prior.
Xin only sideeyes the ranger eyes flitting between the two strangers carefully, Ven's happy at least one of the two could keep their composure.

as she speaks to the stranger the shuppet has made its way elsewhere; she gives an awkward smile upon julius's advice. "my apologies, habit." a quick bow of the head to him and she beams down at the sandile as it's mentioned. the little crocodile pokemon just stomps its feet and gives what looks like a toothy grin, soon digging itself into the warm dirt to bask while its trainer has her conversations. "is it that obvious i am a cadet?" she laughs a bit. "in this region, at least. how do rangers act here?"
she was soon to find out; the other ranger soon makes his presence known, practically falling over his own words as he makes his entrance. a brow raises in amusement as he sloppily introduces himself, small smile tugging at her lips as eyes dart between the two strangers. "you may both call me alpha," it feels strange coming off the tongue; she's modest. does she really deserve the name right now? then again, it saves the time of explaining her birth name, over, and over, and over-
she extends a hand to the other familiar sergeant. "pleasure to officially meet you; ma'am works," she laughs, only to finally notice the blood oozing from the other ranger's hand. she's fast to act, gauze already in hand as she reaches for the injured man's hand without hesitation. "this may sting." she's all business again, quick to spray a potion on the injured area, nimble fingers gentle to turn his hand over to cover all of the bite area. gently but quickly, alpha wraps the injury, all of her focus on the task at hand before she tucks the end of the gauze and releases him. proud of her work, she flashes a bright smile at venti. "be more careful next time, friend."

but then she laughs, and julius finds her looking prettier already. she's a tad polite, but the way she acts is the sort of thing that makes you immediately like somone: agreeable, confident and yet humble, or at least, respectful. his eyes fall to the pokemon when hers do, crouching so that he can have a better look at the unfamiliar reptile. he laughs brightly at the little sandile's antics. his laughter fades, and he turns upwards towards the girl. "i wouldn't know, i've only ever been a ranger in kanto." he smiles knowingly, and looks as though he wants to say something else, but then finds himself distracted by the site of another cadet rushing up to meet them. julius stands as he approaches, eyes getting wider and the distance between them at his eyebrows widening as the other male gives the silliest introduction he's seen in a while.
the rangers are still a lively bunch.
he's smiling as the girl makes her...rather odd introduction. "i'm julius. just julius," he says, offering his name into the mixing pot. the girl immediately begins to address his wounds, and in the back of his mind he wonders if she's the type to sleep often.
"but i have to ask, is there a reason the rangers are hanging around here?" he pauses, realizing his curiosity got the better of him. "unless of course, it's confidential." he vaugely remembers the variety of lame jokes he'd crakced using that some years ago.
