Tully gives a small smile, hiding his disappointment. "Sure, let's go." He gives Cassie a look that says "Just go along with it.", knowing she hadn't gotten hurt much from the battle, but not wanting to get the gym leader asking questions about why Otto had attacked him and not his pokemon.
Cassie flaps onto Tully's shoulder, giving a slightly frustrated squawk.

Nurse Joy bandages up Marietta's torso. "Hmm, I guess that's fine. Even with easy tasks you may feel a sharp pain when moving your core. You'll know when they've healed." The nurse puts the finishing touches on the bandages and slaps Marietta's back. "All done! Your pokemon and the young man's pokemon should be in the front." For the rest of the day, Marietta's acrobatic and athletic skills checks are -2
Ika, Scraggy, and Tully are approaching the pokemon center doors."Ah, the red roof!" She starts walking at a faster pace and the Scraggy, that is holding her hand, was being dragged his trainer. "Heeeeyyy nurse Joyyyy! Are you there?" she shouts. Only to walk into the door that Scraggy was trying to protect her from. He lets out a deep sigh.

Jace walks up to the Pokemon Center, grumbling about how he just got robbed by the Poke-Mart. His wallet was getting pretty light, and he would soon be bankrupt. Ahh well, such is the life of a traveler. Hopefully this gym's payout is good. There was no doubt in Jace's mind about winning though.
And lo and behold, the gym leader was there, and she just ran into a door. Perfect. Jace wasn't ready though, he still had to prepare Shroomish for battle. So he saunters into the Pokemon Center like he didn't see anything. Assuming that the leader is too distracted by the door, he goes straight to the counter to get his Pokemon.
"How are they? Didn't give you any trouble I hope."

"Everything went just fine. Just make sure your friend doesn't do anything reckless for the rest of the day!" Nurse Joy hurries to the door and pulls Ika in. "You keep the windows too clean Nurse Joy..."
Nurse Joy gives out a facepalm. "What's the point of using your Scraggy as a service pokemon if things like this happen every time..."
"My eyesight may be awful, but I know my way around this town like the back of my hand! Anyway I need to heal my Sneasel. And the challenger behind me needs his pokemon healed up too!"

"Yeah, sure she needs healin'" Tully says, grinning slightly strainedly while indicating the untouched Murkrow on his shoulder and lifting up his shirt to show the damages the Sneasel had inflicted on him.
Cassie just sits there, looking slightly smug.

"Thank you, Nurse Joy." Marietta winks at the nurse with gratitude, then sees Ika getting hauled into the room. "It looks like I'm interrupting." Not knowing Ika is the gym leader, Marietta casually lifts herself from her seat, not bearing in mind that she is still being bandaged. Marietta fetches her Pokemon troupes, then see her team mates, temporarily interrupt her plans for change of clothes.
"Oh Jace and Tully, I am about to visit the clothing store, going to attack the gym?"

Jace scoops up Ace and the Pokeball containing Shroomish. He turns around and starts heading out, not missing a beat. "Not yet, we still have work to do. Don't wait up though if you feel ready to go." Jace exits the center, looking for a quiet place to instruct his Pokemon. After seeing what he is up against, as goofy as she may seem, Jace is suddenly pensive. And ice type and a fighting type? This will not be easy.
But that's okay, he and Ace have never had anything easy.

Ika watches Jace as he leaves with his pokemon. "That guy wants to challenge me too!? Two challengers, I feel so honored today." She spins around to find Tully and says, "Hey once you're done here could you bring Otto back to my gym? I have to prepare a few things. Ciao!" She gives a signal to her Scraggy and they exit the pokemon center.
Nurse Joy looks at Tully and Marietta, "Some of the gyms in Nexus are structured differently than other regions gyms. Ika's gym is her big house down the street. You can't miss it."

"Good to know. Think you could look at... you know." Tully indicates down at his wound. "Shut up!" He says to Otto's inecitable smug look.

Outside the Pokemon Center, Marietta operates her Pokedex and check the town's pricing for a red suspender, yellow sleeveless top and a mini skirt. A staggering 2500 Pokedollar... Marietta mouth goes wide open, closing her Pokedex. "The pricing for this town's clothes sounds like tourist and trainer traps." She decides against buying clothes for now, maybe if she earns 5000 Pokedollar, maybe more, she may change her mind. Marietta's eyes shines with anticipation for money, hanging her hands and clenching her fists. She wants Pokedollars, a lot of them.
She got one hour before her group decides to challenge the gym. She might as well visit Professor Spruce. Marietta walks to the lab, perhaps to ask a few question and to annoy her friends for being the first.

Through the town map, Marietta finds out that the lab is a few kilometers outside of town on top of a hill that overlooks the town. She arrives at an unusually large door that is being monitored by multiple cameras.

Marietta pushes the door with force, only to feel the resistance of a locked door. She knocks the door, looking at the camera, striking a victory sign, giving a grin.

You see the camera zoom in. The sound of a lock moving breaks the silence and you are greeted by a young man who looks hurried. "May I ask what business you have here?"

"I'm here to register to be a Pokemon trainer! I heard Professor Spruce can help with that before I tackle a gym." Marietta turrets her response, as hurried as the young man, not as panic.

The boy rolls his eyes and turns his back in a hurry, "I can do that for you, it'll be quick. Please come inside the lab."
From the door, the inside of the lab looks as if the interior was made from books. Books and glass tubes surround the lab. Computer servers erupt from the floor, making a constant and low revving noise. Down from the isle of servers, there is a middle aged man in a lab coat tinkering with something on his desk.

Marietta looks at the middle aged man, studying his work, and begins speaking. "Hey uncle, are you Professor Spruce? Let's handshake." She raises her hand, hiding a whoopie cushion.

The boy attempts to stop her from walking over to the professor, "H-hey wait! Who said you can bother him right now!"
The professor turns around in his seat to look at Marietta and her extended hand. He soon turns around towards his desk once more to do his work. "What does our guest want Gerard?" the Professor asks.
Gerard straightens his back, "She wants to be registered as an official trainer. So I took it upon myself to do it while you continue your work."
The professor lunges out of his chair, "Wait! I can help her, I needed a break anyway." He leaves his desk and you see vials of many colors and charts with lots of writing on them.
He digs into a bin and hands you a fresh pokedex, "Enter your name on this and it will automatically register you as an official trainer. I'm professor Spruce by the way!" He slowly extends his hand for a handshake.

Hiding in plain sight from the professor's palm is a handshake shock toy used for shocking unsuspecting friend. Marietta recognize the way the professor attempts to hide the toy on hand. A kindred spirit! Marietta overjoys in her mind, then shakes his hand, touching his toy with the whoopie cushion, making a silly fart sound. "Bonjour Professor Spruce, I'm Marietta, an aspiring juggler, road performer. Oh right, my name..."
Marietta picks up the Pokedex she is given, carefully examining the new shiny PVC touch, then presses the initial of her name as fast as a common phone user, registering herself as a Pokemon Trainer in Nexus. "Alright, I have my own Pokedex."
She remembers her friends and asks. "I got friends who are planning to tackle the gym, do they need to be an official trainer?"

The professor quickly retreats his hand in defeat. Curse my old age! Maybe it's time to put up the lab coat...
The assistant falls to his knees in shock, "N-no way... She noticed the handshock AND countered it..."
Spruce clears his throat and answers Marietta's question, "If they want to challenge the pokemon league yes. They can fight Ika now and come back later for a pokedex if they wish. Preferably tomorrow because I'm expecting a few guests to arrive in a while."
