Cole slunk into the labs as unassumingly as possible, looking postively sullen at the news that the researchers didn't believe their new of the attack. "What do you mean they don't believe us? It... it happened! It's a thing that actually happened right outside, like, 20 minutes ago!" Upon seeing his comrade's similarly baffled expressions, Cole fell into speechlessness. He was similarly stunned by the assistants blithely ignoring the trainers in the room and continuing about their work. How.... how unprofessional!
Cole was about to enact an outburst of indignant rage, even tensed up to do so, but suddenly... the moment was gone. It had passed as swiftly as it arrived. The sheer level of confusion must have been too much for Cole's brain to process, leaving him in a stupor. He shuffled lifelessly over to the assignment board. "Okay, fine..." he mumbled listlessly. "Let's pick a thing."

The board before the trainers seemed to be a constantly updating map of the island, each of the areas had a number of glowing dots on them, colour-coded for danger level and time intensity of the jobs that they contained. Each also listed any trainers who had already signed on to complete them with a simple tap of the dot. Another tap, this time with the Dex-Nav would register a trainer to the job that they were willing to attempt for the research teams on the island. Each of the dots was also updating with the live-stream of data from the Dex-Nav's as well as sending the information on to the other devices so that the records on the island were as up-to-date as possible.

Genki begins tapping through the dots to display job details.

"What about doing something in the bay or in the grassland, it is not that far away and will give us a chance make new friends. Maybe even meet the new Professor," says Aiden while he looks at the board. "Maybe then we can actually talk to her about what happened."

Genki taps two dots in particular that caught his eye, Species Search in the sea marshes, and Marsh-Hunting in mountain marshes, to enlarge the details and currently registered trainers to friends.
"These are the jobs I was talking about. Of corse, if we want something simpler," he taps are third dot, "there is always this one."
The third dot is Species Count in the grasslands.

"I can go for the Species Search, I will go along to keep you and your Pokemon Healthy," smiles Aiden to Genki and Cole. "Plus, if we could find something to be this area's starter Pokemon, that would be really neat."

"It really would be something. It would be great to e a part of establishing a place for trainers to get their start. I've been thinking lately, how I could help with just that goal; I'm pretty handy with a pokeball, but I want to try my hand at breeding. That would help once we find viable starter pokemon, I could be a part of cultivating a healthy group of trainer's first friends."

But, but I want to explore caves and ruins! Cole protested internally. Such was his area of expertise after all, and he was itching all over to tap the secrets of this previously unknown island. Still, Cole did not want to seperate from Genki and his new... friend? Was Aiden officially Cole's first human friend that was neither related to him nor on the other side of a computer screen? What a startling development.
"Okay, let's do that one then." Cole consented. "There could be some interesting Pokemon around, and we can see how they are reacting to all the people and buildings about."

"You're right, Cole," says Aiden to one of his new found friends. "This will give us a chance to see how the Pokemons' habitat is adapting to the changes happening on the island. How about after the species search, you pick the next thing to do? We could rotate which of these," he motions towards the map's dots, "we do. This way, not all decisions are made by one person and we can each do what we're good at?"
He looks at the brothers to see if they thought it was a good idea or not, his eyebrows raised inquisitively.

With a likely mission selected, the trainer's details were added to the tracking system, their own DexNav's now registering on the screen with a location. Now all they had to do was work out a plan for what they were going to do and how they were going to get there. (OOC: Likely the last update before Xmas- I'm off to NYC on Sunday, so will be without internet service and 5 hours behind my normal time zone)

"Species Search it is," with a few taps Genki registered their party for the mission, "now let's see who, if anyone, we are up against."
He tapped the mission once again to pull up the list, now including their names, of registered trainers for Species Search.

"What kind of healing items did you guys bring with you? If we are working together we should pool our resources. This way, if there is something we don't have I can look into purchasing some..."

Rummaging through his bag he responds to Aiden, "I've got bandages enough for one application, a bottle of enriched water, and two pecha berries."
"We'll also need to look into food supplies."

Genki looked at the list of trainers, none of whom he recognised, there were plenty of trainers involved in the search, it would most likely be completed pretty quickly with the sheer rate of counting that would be done.

"We can just head out for an hour or two without needing extra food." Cole interjected at a near mumble. "But it you think it is necessary, we can go to the market first... unless, do they have a meal hall of any kind set up here?" He drifted off, seemingly distracted.

"We could pick up some rations just in case... I'd hate for us to get stuck out there longer than anticipated without something to eat. We could also see if there is any bait to try and draw out some Pokemon."

"Then let's move, looks like we'll have some company too, so we don't want to wait any longer than necessary," excited to meet new pokes, "I already have bait. Let's grab food and head out."
