Biking into Aura Town, Tina quickly made a sharp left, almost falling off her bike as she made an abrupt stop on the side of Professor Pine's laboratory. She stumbled off her red mountain bike, grabbing one strap of her green Treecko-themed backpack. She then walked to the lab entrance.
There appeared to be a doorbell of some sort on the wall near the door. Pushing the button, Tina suddenly shivered at the sharp ring that came along with it. She straightened her jacket and her hat to make herself look presentable. She had traveled all the way from Lilycove City for her first Pokemon, and she was more than anxious to meet the Professor of the Nahra Region.

As the doorbell is rung, the Professor quickly shuffled back to the door. Opening it with a creeeaaak-ing sound, he gestured for the girl to come inside. "Well," He stated plainly looking at her Treecko-themed backpack. "I see you are interested in Pokémon..."
He smiled as he walked back to a small desk in front of an even smaller doorway. "You are here for your first Pokémon---but the question is, which one? I should tell you that almost any basic Pokémon can be a starter here. Like...Poochyena, or Charmander, or Turtwig, or even Elekid. Sometimes we have Eevee's or Oddish, but I am not sure about today." He closed his eyes and shook his head. "So, what'll it be?"

"Well, sir, I'd like a Water Pokemon, but I can't decide which. You can just give me any." she answered plainly. True, she didn't know which Pokemon to get, but it also didn't really matter to her which one she got. All she was focused on was caring for it, and training it to be the strongest it could possibly be.
"Yeah, I'd take any Pokemon," she added, "but I'd prefer a Water Type." She nervously ran her fingers through her hair, constantly taking off her cap and putting it back on to do so. Tina kicked the floor a bit, fixing her grip on her Treecko-themed strap. "Which one do you think I should have?" she finally said.

"Hmm...a Water type, you say?" He scratched at his chin and nodded his head tentatively. "Which would I recommend?" He asked himself, staring blankly up into the sky, still rubbing his chin. "Well, what about a Squirtle? They are adorible and respect people, AND they grow up to be very strong, both mentally and physically."
He paced to the other side of his little counter. "Or, of course, there's a Totodile. They have been chosen by many trainers for their endless supply of energy and their ability to love one another. Truly, I don't know which Water Pokémon you should pick!" He then pulled two Pokéballs up from under his counter. "We do have a Poliwag and an Azurill, just to let you know...I don't normally give the rarer ones away, but I'll make an exception." He quickly winked.

Tina's eyes lit up. "Wow, there sure are lots to choose from!" she said, rubbing the back of her neck. "Well, I suppose a Squirtle would be my ideal choice for a starter, but...I can't resist that Azurill." she thought aloud, scratching the side of her eye. "Well, I guess it's up to you now: Squirtle or Azurill?"
Deep inside, she really didn't know which one to pick. Squirtle evolved into a great big Blastoise, but Azurill and its charms and endurance in it and its evolved forms were sure to win a match. She sighed at the confusion, glancing at the ground before locking eyes with the Professor again. "So," she sighed once more, "What do you think?"

The Professors eyes twitched as he glanced from one Pokéball to the other. -Oh, no, what to do, what to do?- He asked himself in his mind. -I hope I don't make the wrong decision...- He thought again, raising the Pokéball containing the Squirtle. "Well, I think it should be Squirtle...they're best known for their loyalty and joyous aura. I hope you will like the choice that I made for you." He smiled and threw the Pokéball into the air. A Squirtle appeared. -----Congratulations, Tina has just obtained a Squirtle!----- Name: ? ? ? Gender: Male Species: Squirtle Level: 5 Attacks: -Tackle -Tail Whip -----Congratulations, Tina has just obtained a Starter Pack!----- 5000 ND 1 Pokéball 1 Potion 3 Berries

Tina grinned as the Squirtle looked up at her with shining eyes. "He's perfect! Thank you!" she exclaimed, wrapping her arms around the small turtle Pokemon. "Squirtle, don't worry, I'll take good care of you!" she promised, hugging her new Pokemon as it exclaimed anxiously.
"Professor," she added, looking up at Professor Pine, "Where can I get my Pokedex? I heard you get it in the lab, but I didn't get one in my Starter Pack, which I say thanks for by the way." she said happily before glancing down at Squirtle again. "I think I'll name my Squirtle 'Spray'. What do you think, Squirtle?" she asked. The aqua-blue turtle gave a large grin. "Squirtle!" it agreed. "Alright, then! Spray it is!" Tina replied.

The Professor nodded several times, and to answer her question, plainly stated, "Well, we are supposed to give out Pokédex' to those who do not have them, which very few do (Shhh, pretend!), so here you go!" He handed Tina and Spray the Pokédex, careful not to drop it. "Well, I do hope to see you again someday!" Just as he finished this sentence, a Muk threw itself on his once shiny shoes. "GAH! Muk, must you do that?!"

"Thanks!" Tina said, walking out the door with Spray the Squirtle right by her side as she did so. "Let's start our journey to Aura Town before it ets dark, ok, Spray?" Tina suggested. The tiny turtle gave another one of its perky grins and agreed. "Squirtle!" it replied.
Tina then jumped onto her red mountain bike, feeling the weight of her new items in her backpack (Pokedex, Potion, etc.) pull her down of balance a bit. "Squirtle, would you like to go inside your Pokeball now?" Tina asked, holding out its ball. Squirtle thingyed its head, then jumped onto the handle bars. Tina made a confused face. "You sure?" she asked, "You could fall off!" Squirtle turned its head for a while, and something in his eyes told her to trust him. She slowly nodded before starting down the road.
