Okay, so it may just be that I'm a little frustrated with getting out bid at the last second of an action, but I'd love to see a counter that will actually change. Refreshing the page is fine, but if I just bid, it will cause a resubmission and end up with me bidding the same amount again.

I don't know if this is possible, or if there's a reason to not having it live, but I thought I would make the suggestion.

I'm supporting this~ I never played Sky (love the mystery dungeon series, though), but this sounds like a great idea.

If it's possible, maybe there could be an option to send them to a user who recently completed their intro? So it's a new user, but some one who might stick around a bit and won't have them just pile up.

Lyn smiled, squatting down to pet the Vulpix. "Sure, I'll come," she smiled at the little pokemon. It would be a lie if she said she wasn't jealous her egg wasn't hatched yet, but she could wait. Enjoying other pokemon could be enough for now. "I haven't met anyone in my dorm yet..." Lyn thought out loud as she stood up again, pulling her messenger bag close by the strap. "I hope they're nice." With that, she followed Ruby into the dorm.

Lyn blinked, a bit surprised to hear she came through a window. "Um, yeah, I think I know the entrance to the fire dorms. I'm in water, but it should be about the same..." Without much warning, she turned and started walking around the building, still clutching her egg, which seemed to be sweating with her. "Ah... It's so hot here," she muttered to herself. Carefully, she put the egg in her messenger bag, so it could cool off a little bit. Also, that way her slippery, sweaty arms wouldn't drop it. Rounding a corner, she turned back to Ruby. "I-It's over here!" she told her, trying to be louder than her usual quiet whisper.

Yeah, I know it's not really hard core competition or anything. I know the right people are going to be picked for the job. I guess the way my brain functions is just that I see this kind of thing like that. You can wish that the best team will win in sports, but that doesn't make you're not at least a little hopeful that your team is the best team.

I just wanted to wish everyone luck, but I'm an honest (and competitive) person. I still would love the chance to be a Mod, doesn't mean I don't want the best people for the job to get the spot.

I hope that makes sense. ^^U I didn't mean to cause an issue there.

Out in the courtyard, Lyn looked up at the hot sun, high overhead. It had to be a little afternoon, but she wasn't hungry. Looking for shade, she saw some girls by the fire type dorm, one of them she recognized from class. Walking over, she hugged the egg close. Both girls had their own pokemon already. "D-do you mind if I join you?" she asked quietly, just loud enough for them to hear.


Rey let Seether crawl up his arm and onto his shoulder, sitting there like a little chatot. Hungry, he decided to make for the cafeteria. "Bet you're hungry too, huh?" he asked his new partner. There was a little grumble by his ear.

"Sniiiiii..." Seether groaned. Taking that as a yes, they both made for the cafeteria.

"Ugh, there better be some good food," Rey grumbled. "Cafeteria food has a bad reputation." The little Snivy stuck out his tongue in disgust. "Heh, yeah, it's probably gonna be gross. Well, at least you'll be able to figure out what kind of berries you like."

Watching several of the Gijinka go, Seya quickly turned and walked back into the lab, Sable right at her side. Every so often her little parter would fend off an irritated ghost type. There was nothing special Seya say that she really wanted. There was a little trouble with a Gengar and a high level Misdreavous, but nothing bad at all for Sable.

Meanwhile, the human had found a large devise. The base was circular with computer after computer around it. The top of the base was flat, but up from it went a huge glass tube. Wires and tubes of all sorts hung down uselessly inside, looking well preserved from time. Everything, in fact, seemed like it would work with a little power. Maybe she could get an electric pokemon? No, there had to be a different way, one that the scientists used before...

Something in a dark corner caught her eye. A little stand, holding a thick book. Papers of all kinds made it up, and they were all simply strung together with a thin vine. Getting closer, this was under a glass tube as well, saving it from decay and wear. "Sable?" The pokemon trotted over, and used it's brute strength to force the tube up. It was just enough for Seya to duck under, and luckily it stayed as Sable followed. Quickly flipping through, she immediately knew what this was. It was a history of the scientists. All their research, and everything they learned... Exactly what she needed. Quickly, she picked it up and found a large computer she had seen before. There was a small, almost unnoticable door where one could go beneath and see wires. Opening this, Sable took care if a few bug pokemon, but it was good enough for her to hide the book here.

Standing up again, she went to the beds where Artemis had been before, laying down herself with Sable curling up on her stomach, looking inconspicuous to anyone who might cone looking.


Di looked down on the haunted place. Now the building itself was easily hidden by her outstretched pinky finger, and the people were little specks. It was getting hot now, and she fanned herself with one hand. Her Oran berries were gone now, and she was considering turning back. Already she had gained several levels, though only barely. She'd eaten several berries on her own in the heat of battle. Her opponents were much higher leveled than her, which is why she never came this way usually. The forest and cave pokemon were much easier, even if it took a little longer.

Just as she turned, she heard an angry roar behind her. Without even turning to face the Charzard, she started running as fast as she could. Already injured, this was not the ideal situation. The sound of wings close behind and above her let her know that it wasn't letting her escape the battle. Still, she pushed on faster, jumping rocks, sliding down slopes, and crashing through patches of dry grass. The dragon used Flamethrower, and she stayed just ahead of the attack, ending with it only singeing her bare heals. It roared with irritation and began flying lower after her. The best Di could thinknof was to drop. It zoomed over top of her, unable to stop or react fast enough. Grabbing onto it's tail, she scrambled onto it's back. Enraged, Charizard tried spiraling to get her off, but she only held on tighter to it's long neck. Desperate, she tried every strong move she knew. Crunch, DragonRage, Headbut... And all the while it flew higher. The ascent slowed as the beast tired.

Finally, with one last Dragon Breath, her opponent was defeated. Unfortunately, she was also burned quite a bit, on bad health, and now several hundred feet above the ground on top of a fainted pokemon. Holding on for dear life, she did her best to keep it's wings open to slow their fall, but also braced for impact, her eyes tightly closed as they hit the volcano path.

The poor creature had taken the brunt of the fall, but seemed fine. It was very sturdy. However, Di stumbled off and dragged herself back onto the path, wiping a small cut on her face with one sooty hand. Everything was sore. Right now she needed more than sleep. She should have brought rawst berries. Along she staggered wearily, headed back to the haunted place. Seeing her, the pokemon around backed off. Anything to approach quickly scrambled away, finding her as nasty as an injured Arcanine. Not to mention, she had earned the respect of many onlookers.

((To put this in non pokemon terms, to mess with Di right now would be like messing with a scared, injured Pit Bull who already didn't like you. Not a good idea. >.<U))

Lightly cursing himself for taking a seat in the back, Rey stood up quickly to get an egg, but found himself left with the Snivy egg when he got there. Well, at least it felt... Right, taking it. And when he became a fire master, he was going to need a strong substitute if his opponent used water types. Dignified, he snatched up his dorm key and made for the Grass hall. Room number 1 was his, and the minute he entered the room, he knew he was going to hate this. The room was the size of his closet at home, and there wasn't nearly big enough of a bed for his taste. Setting his egg on the bed, he was about to walk out when he heard a loud crack that made him stop in his tracks and look over his shoulder. The egg was starting to split, but suddenly it shattered in one strong heave. Snivy toumbled out onto the bed, blinking in surprise at the sudden light. Rey came back and patted the cute little thing on the head, not being able to be anything but impressed.

"Hey little guy, nice going!" he told it. "I suppose you need a cool name, right?" The Snivy nodded seriously, standing intself up. "Well, then I'll call you Seether!"

"Sni!" it recognized happily.


Lyn used the restroom and had just washed her hands, when she came out to find the egg seeming to shiver. Quickly rushing to it, she picked it up and held it close. "I'm sorry, you were cold, huh? Let's get you warm~" she told it tenderly. Carrying it in two arms, she carefully grabbed her key and opened the door, walking with it out into the hallway, planning on standing outside in the hot sun with it.

(Sorry guys, I keep finding myself quite suddenly busy... I got back from a dance and my ears are still ringing from the way too loud music. I'm probably not going to be up much longer.)

Title: Chapter 2

It could have been anywhere from seconds to centuries. Kat had no sense of time for how long she slept. All she knew was that she slowly drifted awake to a different scene than she had fallen asleep to. The world around her was tinted green, and there was a cool feeling of gel like liquid running over her entire body. A tube was on the edge of her vision, connected to her mouth and nose to provide air.

Everything rushed back at once, and she tried to struggle. Her arms, though down near her sides, felt dead and useless, and her legs seemed to ignore every command. She got something to twitch though. Wait, what was that? It was like a foreign object connected to her. Confused, she instead looked at the world in front of her. Wires, and computers. It looked like various other glass tubes, but none that she saw had anyone in them. Her ears suddenly grew colder, as the gel drained to wear she was. Sucked down with it, her feet touched a cold metal bottom. Soon the cool air reached her forehead, and face.

Something seemed out of order, though...

As it continued, it was her support gave away. It was hard just to keep her head up, and as the gel sucked away from her arms, she tried to put them out against the glass to hold herself up. But once it past her knees, her legs began to shake against her will, quickly going from fine, to sore, to painful as they tried to support her. By the time it was gone, she'd fallen to her knees, and gave up trying to keep herself up at all. She leaned against the glass, and slowly slid just to laying on the cold metal floor, tired even though she had been sleeping not a full minute before. The glass slid up, and she felt arms lift her from her limp position and moving her dead wait to a smoother metal surface, and the feeling of a blanket covered her naked body. Around her were strange faces, none that she even faintly recognized. She must have been on a cart, because the world above her began to move, and below her she heard loud squeaking of wheels. In fact, every noise seemed painfully loud, like someone had cranked the volume of the world to ten times it's normal volume. Still, tired, it wasn't long before she was asleep again.

Lyn took her key and quickly left for the water dorm, still gently holding the shining white egg. She'd seen plenty of eggs hatching already, and though she was a little jealous, she stroked the egg. "Take your time," she cooed to it. "I want you to hatch strong and healthy." Quickly, she slipped into her room, Water 5, and set the egg on the bed, proceeding to flop across it and cover her face with her hands. So... she was finally here. It felt so amazing to know she'd have her own partner soon.

Still on the theme of bugs! It looks like this thing is holding a bunch of balls, but apparently it's just part of it's feet, based on the footprint...

On the lines of unoriginality, it started slipping in Gen V, I agree.

Sable laughed like the idea of a dragon coming after her was one huge joke. Well, she was higher level than all of them, although not by much with the Hydreigon. In a fair fight, she was convinced she would win. She ran back to Seya, hopping onto her back again.

Seya followed Artemis out quietly, standing in the doorway of the haunted place quietly. Not far away, she saw that Eevee Gijinka with the Mightyena one from earlier. She could tell the Eevee didn't like her, no matter how friendly she had sounded. It was a vibe, and not to mention Sable's laugh after her little-miss-happy act. She'd mentioned a Deino Gijinka around here... She didn't see anyone else though. Sable hopped down and sniffed around, reading it's owner's mind. Looking back up, she shook her head. So the Deino was gone.

It seemed Takumi was up now too. The place was coming to life now. It was quite the cute little scene. She'd have to keep an eye out, though. When people seemed to stop caring, she wanted to get back into the lab and figure out more about how it worked.

Maggie quickly made for the dark area, enjoying the cool feel and the dank smell. "Much much better! No more sunlight, never again," she declared forcefully. "Sun burns! I have an owie..." she declared, holding up her little burn and blowing on it to try to cool the still painful heat of it. "Aurora is okay though, right?" she made sure, zipping around the Dragonair. Tsuki had been right with her, but she had lost sight of Aurora.

Lyn felt her face heat more at the compliment as she blushed. "Th-thank you..." she whispered back, tripping a bit on the word. No one had ever complimented her eyes. Usually she just got weird looks, or asked why her eyes were so creepy. She thought that was all they could be to anyone. Gathering her courage, she faced the girl. "I-if you don't mind me asking... Are you going to name your pokemon? I hear a lot of people don't but some say it helps build a better bond..." she whispered, a little more loudly now, the words tumbling out. The egg gave a small shudder, either because it liked the idea or because it was close to hatching. Lyn smiled to herself, imagining it was both.

((Was Crystal talking to her, too? Sorry, I couldn't tell...))

It took a second for Lyn to realize she was being talked to. Looking up at the girl next to her, she blinked awkward. "Ah, sorry... Lyn..." she whispered softly back, hugging her egg close. It felt cool on her skin, a comforting temperature for her. When the other girl walked by, she put her eyes down again and nodded silently, petting it gently. Something inside shuddered a bit in acknowledgement, and she held it closer.

((I kind of want to wait for Death/Artemis to react to Sable being a weirdo messing with his hair... .3.))

Di hiked further up the mountain than usual, having gathered a load of oran berries from the deino cave to keep herself and other pokemon she battled healthy. It wasn't long until she stumbled upon an unhappy looking Charmeleon. It snorted smoke, then charged her with a quick attack. Unable to react fast enough, she took the attack and stumbled back a step. She didn't waste time, though, quickly using a DragonRage. The Charmeleon flew back, and gave her the time to charge in and use Crunch, chomping onto it's arm. It used ember to get her off, and she stumbled away, rubbing the embers off of her face. It came in for a Scratch, but she dodged and Headbutted into it's stomach. Defeated, the pokemon fell back. Taking a deep breath, she felt her level go up. Happy, she dropped down to the pokemon and fed it one of her Oran berries. It struggled to it's feet, then nodded thankfully at her, also acknowledging her strength as it trotted away. The pokemon around her were getting stronger. The battles would get harder. Eating an Oran berry for herself, she climbed on.
