Maria Taylor Flygon House Future Pokémon Breeder & Healer
Location : Battle Classroom
Company :Lillipup Status :Ready for Class... Wearing :Uniform with her hair down.
Maria had woken up and headed for the cafeteria. Having some orange juice and an assortment of fruits, she made sure that Lillipup had her share of breakfast. Although the brunette was pretty sure her puppy Pokémon ate enough pizza during the party the other day to last awhile. Regardless the two headed off to their first class of the day, battle class. Lillipup looked overly excited about the whole thing but then again it was her doing that they were there.
Entering the room Maria waited for Lillipup to enter before following behind her. It appeared that no one was there. That meant she was the first one there. Talk about punctual. Either way she beat Silvano to class which meant that she could rub it in later. Not that she was going to do so at least not right away. “Lillipup save your excitement for when class starts, okay.” Maria told the small pup shaking her head. “Pup pup!”(Will do!) She barked looking back at her trainer tail wagging happily.
‘Wonder when everyone else will show.’Maria thought as she took a seat on the floor. Lillipup soon came over and jumped onto her trainer’s lap and waited. Stroking Lillipup’s soft fur Maria hoped her first day of classes would go well. Not to say that it wouldn’t go well but you never know. Looking down at her partner, it appeared that Lillipup thought the day was going smoothly. Though, she was the one getting pampered with a rub behind the ear.

A day had passed since Skylar had first arrived here at the academy. She had run into such a stranger boy, and as a result had suffered a rather painful injury. It was somewhat better today, but it was still painful. She had managed to see a doctor about it, and thankfully it was just a sprain. If it had been anything worse Skylar might have blown up at the guy. Speaking of which for some reason it seemed like the guy had never existed in the first place and no matter how much she had searched for him the school claimed she had "imagined" him. That certainly ticked her off, she definitely didn't imagine it otherwise she'd have no injury. She sighed, as she left her room to attend class. She was given a single crutch, to help support herself as she walked. Her ankle was tapped up her leg, but lucking she hid that bit by wearing longer socks. She really hoped that no one judged her for it, because personally wearing these socks was sort of embarrassing. The crutch didn't help her case much either. However, she couldn't just skip class on the first day, that was just not something she'd do. Her parents always taught her to be on time, and to be courteous but that wasn't always the case. There was always that one person who just acts rude for no reason, just like that guy had done to her yesterday. All she did was ignore him, he didn't have to throw his damn pokemon at her! She took a small breath, and shook her head. No point sulking about it now, she just had to get over it.
Once she arrived at class, there didn't seem to be anyone there not even a teacher. When she looked again, she did notice another student here. However, she didn't particularly feel like speaking with her. So she simply limped slowly over into another area that was clear and sat down slowly. Noibat flapped over her, before landing on her head. Skylar rolled her eyes at the small pokemon "Really Ace? Do you have to sit on my head. there's a tree branch just above me" she commented. Ace pouted, squawking at her "No noi noibat!" he chirped. Skylar sighed "ok, ok I get it you want to be close to me... just don't get too comfortable, injured person remember?" she said. Ace gave her a small nod, before getting comfortable. Skylar simply sat there waiting for the others to arrive at class.

Marco Guerrero Katsuragi
I will start over...
Location: Ordell Academy Building - Battle Classroom
Marco was running...again. He did a lot of running during his small time in Ordell Academy and he wasn't even the type of kid that liked running. Charmander was following behind him, he was more or less used to this routine where his friend would freak out about being late which ended in them running to their destination. Everything was going smoothly until Marco decided to explore the campus. They left with plenty of time, but their little detour had taken so long that they completely skipped breakfast. When they tried heading to the building where their class would take place they got lost. So they ended up retracing their steps back to the Charizard House then started heading to class.
The black-haired boy was huffing and puffing as he finally reached the building. He really didn't know if he was late or not, he didn't have a watch, so he was just assuming they were late. His stomach bothered him about food, but he ignored its cries of hunger. "I'm sorry! I promise we'll eat as soon as we're done with class," Marco tried reassuring his pokemon, but Charmander was upset about not eating. A person could not come between a pokemon and their food or this would happen: an annoyed pokemon. Marco felt really bad, but there was nothing he could at the moment.
The duo entered the building and quickly tried to find the classroom where their class would be taking place. Marco was running down the hallway looking left and right, but not straight ahead. "Char char!" his pokemon warned him, but it was too late. Marco crashed against someone who was also walking down the hall without really looking.
"I-I'm sorry mister!" Marco apologized looking up at the man whom he bumped into. "Its...its you!"
==========
The Battle Class teacher could not attend his first day of class. An emergency had happened which caused the teacher to leave urgently. Naturally, he apologized for this sudden leave which was what brought him to this classroom today. Antonio Reyes, the stranger who introduced the Opening Ceremony yesterday, was walking towards the Battle classroom where he would be substituting for Virgil Aesculus until his return. Antonio didn't really have a problem doing this and maybe being a teacher would be fun. Either way he would have to get used to it.
He was carrying a folder with him which contained the contents of today's class. Everyone still had about 15 minutes before class officially started, but he was expecting to see students showing up very soon. In fact, here was a kid that was running right at him. "Whoa, careful there. Where's the fire little man?" Antonio asked as a boy with black-haired ran into him almost falling down and nearly causing the tall man to drop his folder. "Oh its you, Marco. Haha we have to stop meeting like this." Antonio chuckled at the irony. He bumped into him at the Opening Ceremony and now he was bumping into him on the first day of class.
"No need to be on such a rush, class won't start for another 15 minutes," it seemed that this little piece of information shocked the young boy and caused his pokemon to face-palm. The boy's pokemon was a Charmander and looking at the emblem on his blazer informed Antonio that the boy belonged in the Charizard House. Another ironic event, but very interesting at the same time. Antonio rubbed the Charmander's head, "you're hungry aren't you?" He fished into his pocket and pulled out a small bag taking out a couple of square-shape pieces of food. He kneel down and opened his hand to present the food to Charmander. The fire lizard sniffed the food on the man's hand before he grabbed a piece and started eating it.
Antonio smiled and then handed the rest of the food to Marco. "Let's go inside and next time just make sure to wear a watch," Antonio pointed at the wristwatch he was wearing on his left wrist, "a man should always wear a watch." He patted the boy's head and then entered his classroom.
"Good morning class!" Antonio announced with a smile on his face as he entered the classroom. He whistled after looking at the room, it sure was fancy looking, "looks like we're going to have a good time here." He chuckled as he walked over to the podium-like object near the center wall of the room. "We still have a couple of minutes before class begins, but while we wait for the rest of the class to show up I'd like everyone who is present to call out their names so that I may mark you down as 'present' in class." Antonio took out a piece of paper from his folder where there was a list of the students who should be in his class.
==========
Marco bowed at the tall man, "I'm sorry, I'll be more careful next time." The man recognized him and joked about how every time they met it was because he was bumping into him. Marco rubbed the back of his head sheepishly, he wasn't sure if that was a good impression or not. When he was told that class wouldn't be starting yet he was shocked. Charmander gave him a look for his foolish action. They were not late, which was a good thing, but they were both hungry, which was a bad thing. The tall man noticed his pokemon's hunger and offered him some food. Marco was handed the rest to feed to his pokemon, "T-Thank you, sir!" Charmander seemed to really like the food so Marco gave him another piece.
Antonio Reyes, that was the name of the tall man. Marco wasn't sure how he felt about him, but he had been kind to him so he could only assume that Mr. Reyes was a friendly giant. He offered him some advise by saying that a man should always wear a watch. Marco nodded, having a watch would be helpful, but he didn't have any money to buy one and he didn't want to ask his parents for one either. Mr. Reyes' hand was big and heavy when he patted him, but this was just another sign that he really was a friendly man.
Marco followed after him into the classroom and when he entered, his eyes landed on a girl. She had purple-hair with a yellow crescent moon hairpin on her hair. She looked annoyed about something and there was a bat-like pokemon on top of her head. His eyes scanned the room and he saw another girl in the class as well. He remembered seeing this girl somewhere...that's right! She was sitting with Iris during the Opening Ceremony. Iris was already making friends while he remained alone. Marco sighed as he sat down on an empty area. He was placed at near perfect distance between the brown-haired girl and the purple-haired girl. He wasn't really sure how to act and he wasn't the type of person to come up to another even though he really wanted to introduce himself to them.
When Mr. Reyes announced that he wanted everyone to call out their names, Marco looked around waiting to see if anyone would go first. He didn't hear anything so maybe it was up to him to break the silence. "M-Marco, " he coughed feeling his mouth dry, but then tried again, "Marco Guerrero Katsuragi...here!" He raised his hand so that Mr. Reyes could identify him. He lowered his hand then stared at the ground feeling his cheeks hot for some reason. Charmander was sitting next to him happily eating from the bag of food that Marco was given.

Skylar's head bobbed side to side softly, Ace's weight weighing her down. Her neck was starting to hurt, and looked upwards at the small bat pokemon "Ace... your hurting my neck with your weight, why don't you sit in my lap instead... that'd be better for both of us" she pleaded. Ace squawked abruptly, smacking her head lightly as if insulted by the weight comment. Skylar scowled "what?! You know i'm just stating facts, you're not exactly weightless" she snapped. Ace glared, jumping up and flapping his wings in front of her "noi no noi noibat noi noi noibat!" he exclaimed, fuming a bit. Skylar groaned "uhhh fine i'm sorry happy now?" she whispered, crossing her arms annoyed. Ace nodded contently, before gliding downwards towards her lap. Once he landed there, he puffed up what little fir he had and cuddled closer to Skylar's stomach. Skylar rolled her eyes smiling a bit, Ace would throw a mini tantrum about his weight.
Once that little dispute was finished, she turned her attention back towards the front of the classroom. It was a bit awkward to be in the same room with someone you know nothing about. Skylar wasn't exactly the most social of creatures, and often times didn't instigate conversations. She wrapped her arms around Ace's chest softly as she hugged him closer. It was then that two other people walked into the room. Both were male, but clearly one was a student and the other was what she assumed to be the teacher. He was somewhat intimidating, and didn't seem like someone who would enjoy teacher. However, looks could be deceiving. She watched silently as the student sat down in between both the girl and herself. At least it would be less awkward now right? Skylar sighed, and looked up as the man began to speak. He stated that they should call out their names for roll, and so she automatically assumed he was indeed their teacher.
She waited, and her eyes moved tentatively to the side in front of her to the boy who spoke up first. He seemed somewhat sky, considering that he stuttered a bit at first as he introduced himself. Surprisingly he actually had a really long name, so long that Skylar probably didn't even remember half of it. All she did catch was that his first name was Marco. She didn't really have any opinions on his name, it was bad, but it wasn't her favorite either. She looked around, and rather than wait to say her own name she just went ahead and spoke "Skylar Moore" she announced blankly, before sighing. She then looked downwards to see her partner nodding off, and she smiled softly at it. She quickly stopped, however, and returned the blank expression she had on earlier. She then waited for class to finally start.

Koru ran to the room as much as she could in a hallway, she didn't want to get in trouble on her first day, but she didn't want to be late either. Cyndaquil hung on tight to the collar of her jacket trying not to bounce off her shoulder while she sped down the hall. She finally stopped and before opening the door to the room she pushed the last bit of toast into her mouth,”Ofukay!” she swallowed and opened the door. Coming in there were already a few people there, she immediately recognized a few faces already. The Marco boy from the ceremony and while she didn't know her she noticed a girl wearing a uniform in Salamence colors. She looked away from the students and just a few paces before her was the man that spoke during the opening ceremony. She jerked away in surprise, taking Cyndaquil aback as well. Koru started to feel all of her nerves tense up, was she late? At her old school the teachers didn't show up til class started, was it this way here? Cyndaquil curled back over her shoulder and looked at her confused. Her eyes were downcast as she took Cyndaquil off of her shoulder and cradled him in her hands. She bowed to the man and looked back up,"Hello sir!" she exclaimed unintentionally. She stopped then tried speaking again in a more normal tone,'I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry' she thought screaming in her head. She wasn't very sure of what to say, she had already screamed a hello to the teacher, what else was there for her say wrong? She looked around and decided it would be best if she went ahead and took her seat. She took the seat close to the other girl with the Salamence uniform. She gave the girl a small wave as Cyndaquil re-adjusted himself to sit on Koru's lap. She turned her attention to Mr. Reyes and asked them to introduce themselves. Marco was the first to speak, and she became intrigued at the Charmander he had with him. She was almost gawking at the other fire pokemon like some googly eyed fangirl. Cyndaquil saw this and puffed his cheeks jealous. It wasn't that Koru didn't notice this but seeing other fire types got her even more excited to the meet others here and what pokemon they have. The girl next to her spoke her name, and immediately Koru recognized it. It was the name on the door of her dorm room, it was her roommate! Koru was almost beside herself to finally meet her, and her pokemon was so adorable, had no idea what it was but still. She was ready to whisper to her but when the room went silent again Koru turned her attention back to Mr. Reyes and spoke,"I'm Koru Frene, nice to meet you sir!" her nerves were noodles compared to before, this class was already revving her up and it hasn't even started yet!
X⇒ LOCATION : ClassroomXXXXXXXXXX⇒ WITH : Maria, as well as some other students
Silvano had once again used the same map from earlier to help him locate the classroom. Fortunately, he had little trouble finding it, although he had no idea if he was running behind.
Opening the door to the classroom, Silvano cautiously stepped inside, making sure to close the door behind him as he did. He quickly noted that the room had a sort of Asian inspired room, kinda like a dojo he supposed, and had no chairs or any other furniture to speak of, save for a podium of sorts. Silvano also noted that a handful of other students had already made it to the room. The first one he recognised was Maria, one of his childhood friends. The other two girls he hadn't met before, though one if them bore the same uniform colors as him -- the first time he seen another Salamence. The only other boy in the room was the same one that was up on stage and gave the welcoming speech to everyone. Inwardly, Silvano wondered if the black haired boy might have had familial ties to the school or was otherwise a rather noteworthy figure. Either way, it was interesting that the mysterious man that had presented the boy on stage was also present within the room. Was he the battle teacher? No way -- that couldn't have been true. Silvano remembered a different adult presenting a speech on battle class during the ceremony.
Shifting his gaze back to Maria who was sitting on the floor with her Pokemon, gently stroking its fur, Silvano decided to make a B-line towards her, since she was the only student he recognised -- other than the black haired boy he didn't know the name of.
Reaching Maria's side, Silvano decided to pull up a floor space beside her and sat down cross legged. "What's going on?" He asked Maria in a hush whisper. "Why is that man here instead of the battle teacher?" he then asked, looking back at her curiously. Inwardly, he hoped that the class was still on, despite omitting the person that was suppose to give them their lesson.

The class was starting to be filled by more students (NPCs) and checking his clock, Antonio decided that he had given the students enough time to arrive. He stood up and cleared his throat immediately catching the students attention. Antonio smiled at the little boys and girls that were going to one day go on their own journey some day. This was the start of something big for everyone. "Welcome everyone to Battle Class. I know that some of you are confused about seeing me," he begin as he paced a little, "our Battle Teacher, Mr. Aesculus, had to taken a sudden leave of absence. I will be substituting for him for the moment. My name is Mr. Reyes and I am happy to see so many faces." He took a step forward so he could properly face everyone, "This class is all about teaching you the basics of Pokemon Battles. I know that many of you might have seen battles on TV or might have even attended a pokemon battle, but trust me when I tell you that its like nothing you've ever experienced before."
Antonio pulled out a pokeball from his pant's pocket and pressed the button to increase its size. The sphere opened and a pokemon was summoned. "This here is a pokemon called Garchomp," the tall and proud dragon pokemon watched the children carefully. He was definitely an intimidating pokemon; maybe the children didn't understand yet, but this pokemon was power. Any experience trainer knows that a Garchomp is deadly in any battle. Antonio smiled at the students, "a Garchomp is a great example of a pokemon that is versatile and made for Pokemon Battles." Antonio looked at all the pokemon that were currently present in the room, "I see that all of your pokemon are in their Unevolved stage, that's normal and expected because none of you have any battle experience with your pokemon." Antonio glanced over at his Garchomp as if signaling him to perform an specific task. The dragon pokemon stepped forward and stood tall as if he was presenting himself to the students. "My pokemon is in his Second-Stage of Evolution, this stage was achieved through many battles and hard word," Antonio grinned, the students could definitely hear the pride he felt towards his pokemon, "pokemon battles are not the only way to help your pokemon grow, but they are definitely one of the most used methods for pokemon growth. Regardless of the field you might decide to focus in the future, Pokemon Battles will always be present. Due to this fact, everyone should always be prepared to battle whether it is a challenge or as a means to defend yourself."
Antonio had spend a good amount of time speaking, but since this was the first class then it was expected. To give his voice a break, he decided to ask the students for their own opinion, "before we go any further. I'd like to hear from everyone. Please tell me why you decided to take this class and what you hope to gain from it. After you answer the questions then you may ask me one question about the class." It was the student's turn to speak now and Antonio was curious to hear how they would answer his question.
▁▒▒▓▁▁▁▁Korυ Freɴe▁▁▁▁▓▒▒▁ ◉Wнere:Battle Class Wιтн:Classmates/Cyndaquil/Mr. Reyes Word Coυɴт:477 Feelιɴɢ:In awe OOC: Gar gar garchomp!◉
After speaking she saw another boy walk in and take a seat at the far end of where she was. Seems battle class was going to be a popular class among Salamence students. As Mr. Reyes made a noise to get their attention she stiffened, not knowing what to expect now. Even though she had already guessed he would be teaching the class today she felt a little worried for the other teacher, ”Wonder what happened...” she mumbled looking down at Cyndaquil in her lap. He looked back up but wasn't very sure of why she was staring at him. He wiggled his arms to signal her to look back up and pay attention. She understood what he meant by the difference of battles from tv to real life, her dad had proved that much to her when he watched him battle in tournaments when she was younger. To be up and close, that close, was something she couldn't wait to be in. The Garchomp blew her mind. She had only ever seen one on tv specials, only the really strong trainers and even champions have used one. Though Koru was in complete awe Cyndaquil was thrown through a loop. He shivered to the point of trying to back up more into Koru's chest, eventually climbing his way up over her shoulder, covering his eyes from the huge shark-dragon looking pokemon. Koru patted him on the back, at least his flames didn't pop out, "*Sigh* It's okay buddy..." While comforting her partner she continued to eye the Garchomp, such a powerful pokemon before them was amazing in itself. Comparing Cyndaquil to a fully evolved pokemon like that really made her see the road ahead with him, right now he's small and frightened by the smallest things, but if he was a Typhlosion then it'd be a different story. Stopping his speech confused her, to her he was on a pretty good roll, had her attention with it at least, but being asked that question filled her head with one answer. Since she was little she has had this answer, but if she said it would it sound too straightforward? She's always boasted about it but to explain it was new. No, whatever she said now is something she knew couldn't be wrong, known of the answers everyone would say would be wrong. She shot her hand up in the air, while she held Cyndaquil on her shoulder with the other. She then spoke out her reason in the best way she could possibly say it,"I want to become a super strong trainer and become a master of fire type pokemon," adding 'super' into that may have been a bit much but she couldn't help but smile,"I also hope to become strong enough for Cyndaquil too." she nuzzled her cheek into Cyndaquil's head and he giggled in reaction,"Quil!"
Ethan had quickly entered the class so that he wouldn't be late and had been silently sitting on the ground near a wall trying his best to not draw any unwanted attention to himself. The brown haired boy listened to the substitute teacher and the other students around him, he was cautious due to his anxiety of being around people since he grew up Isolated. When he called for them to give their names he gulped and waited for a few of the others to introduce themselves he did as well,' Im...Ethan Couseland sir..." He did he best not to stutter and then watched as the class began.
He was worried that the original battle teacher had gotten into a accident and was hoping that wasn't the case. He memorized the teachers name, Mr. Reyes, and was listening to him to the best of his ability as to try and understand his words. He watched as he sent out his own Garchomp, he watched the Dragon type Pokemon and was immediately reminded of a Kabutops that his mother used to have. As he spoke about evolution his eyes went to the Poliwag that was hidding behind the males chair and reached over and petted his head whispering," Shh. Don't be afraid Shirou." Before looking back to the teacher, and being asked that tough question, Ethan was left dumbfounded for a few seconds before he quietly responded, he knew he wasn't the only one being asked but that just meant others would hear his answer." Um well... "He picked up Shirou and then said," I want to become strong enough to travel the world like my parents and to make friends along the way, battle class will help me prepare for that..."

Shadow of Miracles
Sorry I took so long, worked 7 days in a row and yesterday was my first day off in forever.
Maria Taylor Flygon House Future Pokémon Breeder & Healer
Location : Battle Classroom
Company :Class... Mr. Reyes, Silvano Status :Ready for Class... Curious... Wearing :Uniform with her hair down.
Maria watched as a purple haired girl came in she was wearing Silvano’s house colors. She also had a strange bat looking Pokémon which looked kind of cute. It kind of made her want one but she was content with Lillipup and she knew Lillipup was content with being her only companion. The next thing she knew the boy Marco had arrived right behind that guy from the ceremony. Something was obviously up with their regular battle teacher because she knew who he was from the ceremony the other day. Hopefully it was nothing serious. Asking for their named Maria turned her attention to Mr. Reyes after the girl from earlier known as Skylar spoke.“Maria Taylor.” She introduced as she raised her hand before putting it back down. It was then that yet another girl from Salamence came in and after her Silvano himself.
Watching as Silvano came over to her, Maria gave him a small smile before looking down at Lillipup. The small pup just looked at the boy as she wanted to bark but knew not too. “Morning,” she greeted him before he went on to ask her why Mr. Reyes was there and not who was supposed to be there. “Not sure. My guess is something came up and our battle teacher couldn’t make it. So he’s filling in...” she whispered back. It sounded logical to her anyways. Sure enough as Mr. Reyes began to explain things, it became apparent that he was doing exactly that.
Turning her full attention back to Mr. Reyes, Maria listened to him talk about what the class was about. It was really quite explanatory not that she was say she knew as much. Watching as he pulled out a pokéball and released a Garchomp she thought it would be a strong Pokémon, not something you wanted to mess with. Though the brunette was skeptical that battles were a go to thing, why was battling the answer. Honestly Maria just didn’t like fighting but Lillipup found it interesting so she went along with her Pokémon. Truthfully that’s the only reason why she was in the class.
Next came, the question that Maria found was most complexed. What did she want to gain? She figured she knew the answer but even still she wasn’t so sure. After listening to two students give their answers she found the one girl to be interesting. Not many people specialized in one type. That made things hard since that one type’s weaknesses would always be present but that didn’t mean they couldn’t be overcome. Raising her hand after Ethan a boy in her house, Maria took a breath. “I took the class because… because it was what Lillipup wanted… and I just want to understand Lillipup better. So I thought, maybe this class would help… with that.”She answered nervously. The small pup looked up at her and seemed to smile as if she understood.

X⇒ LOCATION : ClassroomXXXXXXXXXX⇒ WITH : Maria, as well as some other students When he first saw Maria's thin smile, Silvano could tell that it was alright with her that he could sit beside her. Though, the look he got from the little pokemon in her lap seemed to say the opposite. Actually, he was surprised that her Lillpup didn't bark at him like she normally did. Maybe the pokemon had decided to stay on its best behavior during class. "Good morning," he greeted Maria back before asking about why the battle teacher was absent. As it turned out, Maria didn't know either, though her guess sounded like a reasonable answer. "You're probably right. This guy's probably just covering for now." Silavno then whispered back, giving a slight nod. Soon enough, the tall and mysterious Mr. Reyes confirmed that he was indeed covering for Mr. Aesculus for the time being.
Falling silent, Silvano gave his full attention to their instructor, who began to explain what the class would be about. Despite not being their true battle teacher, Mr. Reyes seemed to have an air of experience about him which made him seem like a credible expert on the subject. Silvano's eyes couldn't help but widen at the tall dark purple skinned pokemon that the man released from its pokeball for all the class to see. The pokemon looked powerful, like it could do a wealth of damage in battle. It's intimidating features captivated Silvano's imagination. It was the sort of powerful pokemon he could picture himself commanding one day, instead of the pathetic bat pokemon his sister had given him. Apparently, this pokemon was at its final stage, which meant it had a plethora of experience behind it, and must have fought countless battles. Interestingly enough, Mr. Reyes explained that battles were not the only way pokemon could grow stronger, which made Silvano curious about what the man meant by that. As far as he knew, battles were the only way pokemon could become powerful. Regardless, he definitely agreed with the man's words in that battles were essential to being a trainer. He inwardly knew he would have to become well versed in them and the strategies behind them, especially if he wanted to become as strong as he envisioned himself being.
When Mr. Reyes asked the students to one at a time explain why they took battle class and ask any questions they wanted afterwards, Silvano immediately got to thinking. Though, before he could raise his hand and give an answer, three other student had already beaten him to it, Maria included. The first girl to answer was a brunette he recognized from the Salamence house party. Was her name Koru? Silvano wasn't absolutely sure, but he found it interesting that she wanted to become a fire-type expert of sorts. Seeing the tiny Cyndaquil clutching onto her shoulder, it seemed to make sense that she would have such a goal. The next person to answer Mr. Reyes' question was a boy from the Flygon house. Silvano found little interest in the boy and his words. It seemed like a fairly typical response for someone who wanted to be like the trainers from the olden days. Regrettably, Silvano sort of wanted to do the same as him, although he didn't want anything to do with the 'making friends' part. Silvano knew he didn't need friends to accomplish his goals. When Maria spoke up, she stole Silvano attention completely. He didn't realize that Maria had decided to take the class because of her pokemon, Lillipup. He didn't have a clue how battle class was going to help her understand her pokemon any better than she already did -- it was just some subservient pup, of course it already listen to her because she owned him. Silvano only shook his head when Maria finished, finding her words both overly optimistic and childish.
Raising his hand after Maria had fallen silent, he decided he would give his reason for taking the class next. Though, firstly he decided to introduce himself since he hadn't done that yet. "My name is Antonio Silvano. I took this class in the hopes of learning how to train my useless pokemon to become stronger as well as how to become a strong trainer myself." He explained confidently to Mr. Reyes, as well as the rest of the class. "As for my question about this class. Will it teach us how to identify strong pokemon that are made for battles -- like your Garchomp -- from the weak and useless ones? I want to learn what I must to create the most powerful team, like ones you see during televised championships."

[アントニオ・ シルヴァーノ]
✗ STATUS : Fine ✗ MOOD : Ambivalent ✗ THOUGHTS : '...' ✗ ATTIRE :This school uniform with Salamance house colours
✗ WORD COUNT :No Idea;macbook program won't say ✗ OOC : ...
Antonio was happy to see some enthusiasm from the students. A girl with short brown-hair and a Cyndaquil hanging on her shoulder was the first to raise her hand and she looked so excited about answering his question. He grinned at hearing the word 'super' which she decided to use as emphasis. What really caught his interest was her goal to become a mono-type trainer. "You have certainly chosen an interesting path miss Koru, a very fun path in fact," Antonio chuckled, "mono-type teams require a lot of creativity because a trainer must think outside the box when battling." He was happy to hear that she was working towards becoming strong for her pokemon. Usually students wanted their pokemon to become strong, but it was rare to see a student that wanted to be strong for her or his pokemon. If she decided to stick with a mono-type team then her path would be a difficult one, but very rewarding in the end. Antonio was interested in seeing her growth, he would have to keep an eye on this spirited girl. She didn't really asked any questions so he listened on to the other students that decided to speak up.
The next student was a student which had arrived late to class. He was quite the daring individual to be placing attention on himself even after coming to class late. The kid had guts which was always good to see in youth, it showed spirit which was very important; nonetheless he would have to mark him down for his tardiness. "That sounds like a good plan mister Ethan. In fact, this is probably the kind of goal that many of you will want to pursue." Antonio smiled looking around the room. No questions so far and he wondered if everyone was too impressed by Garchomp to properly think of questions to ask. He could see some pokemon looking at the dragon-type with worry or even fear; they sensed the dragon-shark's battle strength and naturally they withdrew from it. Antonio patted his pokemon's back, his appearance was meant to be an example of what a fully evolved pokemon was like as well as show what hard work could provide.
A girl with long brown-hair and carrying a Lillipup spoke up after she raised her hand. She seemed to be very attached to her pokemon which was always nice to see from the students. Her response was something a little unexpected, very considerate, and mature. The reason she entered the class was because she felt that her pokemon was interested in battles. Normally, students this young had a hard time understand their pokemon not just their actions, but their feelings as well. Not only did she listen to her pokemon's needs, but she was trying to understand her pokemon. Maria Taylor, he was definitely intrigued by this young girl and he wandered what the future await for her. "You're very close with your pokemon," Antonio commented and smiled as petted his own pokemon, "listening to your pokemon is very important. During a battle, it is the trainer who shouts the commands so its very easy to assume that pokemon should be listening to the trainer at all times." He was speaking to everyone now in hopes that everyone would hear his next words and think about the message he was trying to deliver. "Success in Pokemon Battles doesn't just come from giving the correct commands. You must also listen to your pokemon, you might not catch at it first, but your pokemon are always 'communicating' with you even during a battle."
Everyone had raised their hand to speak and the next student was no exception. Seeing the student made Antonio have a feeling that even if he did not raise his hand the student would have made his voice be heard one way or another. The student was young, but his words already held a certain weight to them. The confidence this student was displaying as well as the manner in which he spoke easily caught the man's attention. They shared the same first name and perhaps there were other things similar about them. His view on pokemon was a little different than the others, but even before he shared his thoughts he was already setting himself apart from everyone. Antonio grinned folding his arms in front of his chest, he was the first student to ask a question and what a question it was! Antonio was a little concern about how to best answer him. His question had a complex answer and he didn't want to confuse anyone, but he did agree to answer any question the students asked.
Antonio's thoughts were interrupted when a black-haired boy stood up and faced Silvano. Oh boy.
==========
"How can you say that? There are no useless pokemon!"
Those were the words that everyone in the classroom heard and they were coming from one black-haired student. Charmander watched his friend, he looked upset not really angry, but definitely bothered. Marco looked down at the boy named Antonio Silvano. There were some students between them, but the distance wasn't all that far. "Just because a pokemon isn't the strongest doesn't mean that they're useless. All pokemon have an important role to play,"" Marco was repeating the words that his dad had once said to him during the first few days when he received his Charmander. He frowned at Silvano and realized that he was the only student who didn't have his pokemon out of his pokeball with him.
Marco wasn't the type to be this bold; in fact, he didn't realize yet that he was drawing attention to himself by standing up and facing Silvano. He didn't normally get upset at others, at least not anymore, but the way Silvano has repeatedly used the word "useless" to refer to pokemon really rubbed him the wrong way. He was only focused on strength and Marco knew a thing or two about people who only cared about power. Once he realized that all eyes were on him, he withdrew into himself a little, no longer looking as upset instead looking more shy and self-aware. "You...you shouldn't talk about pokemon like that," he finished with his voice sounding a little low as he sat back down.
==========
Antonio heard everything, but didn't really make an effort to Marco or Silvano from speaking their mind. Once again he was surprised by the black-haired boy who could often be dismissed as a shy student that would prefer the spotlight be always pointing away from him. Yet this was the second time that Antonio was caught off-guard by this boy's action. The first was during the Opening Ceremony when, on a whim, Antonio decided to have this student open the ceremony for them. He didn't except too much and after his first mess-up during the introduction, he didn't think the student would come back. However, Marco continued with the speech and everyone enjoyed it. The second time Antonio was surprised was at this very moment. While all the students remained silent, the boy had been the first one to speak and with a very stern voice.
These boys were still young, but he did wonder what this situation would create; what might be born from this moment. Unfortunately, he couldn't wonder for too long and he didn't want to lose the attention from the students. "Alright, that's enough. Everyone has different opinions when it comes to pokemon. Part of your education in the academy is to learn about these differences as well as discover your own person." Antonio looked at all the faces in the classroom to make sure everyone was paying attention. "Pokemon Battles are not just exclusive to competitions. There are many reason for battling and sometimes trainers have battled each other in order to communicate," Antonio chuckled at seeing the student's skeptical faces, "I know it sounds a little weird, how can people communicate without talking? Well, many trainers have said that by battling another trainer they were able to understand each other better....mhmm this gives me an idea." The tall man glanced at Silvano and Marco with a smile on his face. "Looks like we will have some practice battles for next class, but for the moment I'd like everyone to pay attention to the wall."
He probably confused a lot of students with that statement as he pointed at the empty wall behind him. Antonio pulled out a remote control and pressed a button. Once the button was pressed, the wall started to separate and reveal a large flat-screen TV. "What you guys are about to witness is a tutorial video on Pokemon Battles. Please pay attention and you're welcome to take as many notes as you want, but do not disturb your fellow classmates while the video is playing." Antonio pressed another button on the remote and the Pokemon Battle Tutorial video began to play. Once the video finished, Antonio faced his students.
"So what are your opinions of the video? And are there any questions about what you just saw?"

▁▒▒▓▁▁▁▁Korυ Freɴe▁▁▁▁▓▒▒▁ ◉Wнere:Battle Class Wιтн:Classmates/Cyndaquil/Mr. Reyes Word Coυɴт:461 Feelιɴɢ:Determined OOC: Happy October 1st!◉
Listening to everyone else speak their reasons for the class Koru started to learn a little bit about each of them. She waited on what Mr. Reyes had to say to her claim of becoming a fire type trainer. At first she felt a little unsettled, yelling out something that sounds and is harder than it is believed to be. His words shocked her though, she looked at him with a dumbfounded look, listening on to his advice she could feel herself beginning to blush a little before letting out a light laugh,”Yes sir, my father and a lot of my family are mono-types and I want to follow in their footsteps. I know fire types have a lot of weaknesses but with Cyndaquil I plan on makin' him my powerhouse that no one will defeat! OH!-” there she goes again shouting out the first thoughts in her head. She looked down, her face now beet red could be seen through her fingers as she tried to hide it. Cyndaquil Peaked his head back over and was incredibly confused, so much he didn't notice Garchomp anymore. It took the next few people speaking for Koru to remove her hands from her face and start paying attention again. She had always told herself to stop talking out without thinking first. Of course she probably won't until a few more embarrassing moments. She jerked around at the Salamence boy, Antonio, and couldn't believe what he had just said. She furrowed her brow confused but before she could say anything Marco stood up and did all the talking instead. He seemed pretty passionate while he spoke, and here she thought he was shy. When he sat back down she shot him a smile and a thumbs up, Cyndaquil raising his arm up as well in unison for a "Way to go!" signal. Mr. Reyes seemed pretty passionate himself, every word he said has a confident sound behind it. She began to wonder: what kind of trainer is Mr. Reyes? She watched intently on the video he began to play. She couldn't take her eyes off of it. It was like she was watching a match on TV while sitting in her living room. Her brother would be by her side and Cyndaquil in her lap, sleeping through what Koru thought is the most amazing sight ever. In all the excitement the lights came back on and the video stopped. She shook her head when he asked if they had any questions, from what she saw was how her dad battled, well a little more controlled at least. Having practice battles next class?"Yes!" she whispered sharply while pumping her fist back. She looked down at Cyndaquil and grinned goofy,"This is it buddy!" she squeed happily.
Antonio looked at his wristwatch, class would be over pretty soon yet he didn't have anything else to talk about with the students. He was sure that nearly everyone in the room was itching to get started on battles, especially after seeing that video, but they would need to be patient until next class. Antonio glanced at his Garchomp who was eerily calm at the moment, but he knew better. Seeing that battle had made the shark-pokemon anxious. Antonio patted the dragon and then returned him to his pokeball; he would have to let him get some exercise later in the day. The rest of the class was in silence at the moment and except for Koru to seemed like she was ready to burst at any moment. She was a cute little thing and he couldn't wait to see her in battle.
There were many students in the classroom with unique personalities and they were all very interesting to Antonio. His caught sight of the silent student in his room. A girl with purple hair and a crescent moon hairpin decorating her hair. She had said her name and then nothing more only whispering to her pokemon. He hoped to hear more from her next class and speaking of class... "Alright everyone, I am finished with everything for today's class. We will review the basics and etiquette of pokemon battles next class. If we can get everything done on time then we will have our first pokemon battles. So make sure to arrive on time so you don't miss a thing." Antonio cleared his throat and then smiled at all the students.
"Pokemon Battles are a part of our world, they will always be present, and this class is meant to prepare you for this part of our world," his smile turned kind as if his whole appearance had suddenly changed, "always remember: Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle." Antonio wasn't sure if the students would understand that quote yet, but maybe one day they would all look back and remember these words. His presence returned to its usual relax and carefree self. "Class dismiss!"
