Nue peeks into the hole, and there is what looks like some sort of shard buried in the dirt. The bunny seemed to know it was there but upon finding it, found no use and ran off.

Well, since the Bunnelby or whatever didn't want it, Nue will take it. No sense leaving it lying around. It may even be useful someday. Placing it carefully in her bag, Nue then heads off to see where Yue ran off to. Her 'Yue shenanigans' sense is tingling again.

Nue is out and about at the crack of dawn to run a makeshift obstacle course with her three Pokemon (xp training + focused/agile training added to all). She pays special attention to her new Emolga, who has had a lot of growth since joining, but not as much overall experience. Once that is finished, she winds the group down by heading out to Route 22 to check for some water Pokemon in the pond out there. She could use one to help counter the fire-types that threaten Ferroseed, even if they're not her usual team choices. An Oshawott might be nice, if she can find one, but they're pretty rare outside Unova unless one acquires it as a 'starter'. Who knows though? She could get lucky.

As Nue searches around the path to the League, she finds a little pond in a grove that seems a bit quieter than the rest of the route. Hmmm. She gets close and sees something slink out of the water. What looks like a small light purple snake comes out and it shakes itself dry. As Nue gets closer, thinking it's a snake, it turns out to be something more sophisticated. A Dratini!

Nue's eyes widen in shock. A purple dratini?! Oh my. She slowly removes her obvious weapons from her person and sets them down. She doesn't want to appear threatening if possible. Dratini are often skittish. She then, with equal caution, comes out into the open. She makes just enough noise to be heard (hopefully) without spooking it. She then sits down in the open and waits to see what it does. If it attacks, she goes for her weapons. If not, hopefully it will have time to get used to her and perhaps even approach!

The Dratini freezes when Nue approaches from the shadows, but sees that Nue isn't making threatening motions. It decides to wait and see, while continuing to dry itself. But it watches Nue closely.

Nue watches right back! She also briefly searches her bag for any snacks that a Dratini may like. Hmmm...no berries, that's a shame, but expected. Nue is not exactly a berry collector. Ah! Maybe a snack bar? Nue slowly pulls a snack bar out of her bag and unwraps it. She breaks off a piece and eats it, then breaks off another piece that she tosses between her and Dratini. Underhand, so it can see what she's up to.

The Dratini waits for Nue to look away before slowly sneaking up and sniffing idly at the bar piece before licking it and sneaking a few bites. It seems to like it, at least. So... what now?

Nue will slowly reach out to see if it will allow itself to be touched. At the same time, she informs the little dragon of how majestic it is. She wonders if it would consider joining her team? She will help it to attain its goals in life, whatever they may be. She lays out all the facts about what the experience would be like, calling on Eevee for help if needed.

Nue's in luck it seems. The Dratini is off by itself here, all lonely. It sees all these trainers bring strong pokemon by, headed to the league, all with fully evolved pokemon, friends with their trainers. When Nue compliments it, it knows that she could be the one to help it become a big dragon like it's parents!
It looks up to Nue with lillipup-like eyes.

Nue will gladly aid it in becoming a powerful dragon. She even offers to train it in a very special way so that it can (eventually) surpass them without even needing to fully evolve. She offers it a Poke Ball. If it wants to become strong, Nue shall make it so.

Satisfied with her new ally, Nue heads back to town. It occurs to her, now that she is thinking about how to cover her team's weaknesses, that Ferroseed is quite vulnerable to fire. Yes, she has Dratini to help cover that now, but her new friend doesn't have any water moves at present. Perhaps she should find a way to assist Ferroseed with handling fire-type moves, should it ever end up going up against one. Many Pokemon can learn them, after all. What were those things called again...Type Braces? Yes, that sounds correct. Oh, didn't Yue's mad scientist acquaintance have the capability to create those? Hm. Cannot hurt to check. Maybe while in town Nue can find someone to help her Dratini learn a Water-Type Move.

She nods and in a bit, Amanda comes out and greets Nue.
"Hello there are you ready to... Hmm. Do I know you? You look like someone I've met recently..."

"We have not met, no. You are acquainted with my sister, Yue. The excitable one." Nue deadpans.

She snaps her fingers.
"That's it. But yes... the 'excitable one' is how I'd put it as well. Anyway..."
She sends out her first of three, a Mudbray!

Nue elects to send out Ferroseed!
Init - 6 (Agility Training)
Ferroseed immediately begins to spin rapidly in place before firing off a barrage of explosive, grass-typed projectiles. Seeing as Nue is not allowed into the arena personally, she offers her Pokemon a bit of pointers on accuracy. (Focused Orders)

The barbs on Ferroseed's body hurt the Mudbray, punishing it for striking the spiky Pokemon directly.
