"Oops!" Takara chuckled. "Guess you don't like those, huh? Sorry. My impidimp loves em. Let's see..." Takara fished around in their bag and pulled out an oran berry. "Maybe this suits your fancy better?" They give the berry to the pokemon before standing up. "Be a bit more careful next time! I'd hate for you to get hurt!"
As they walked away, Orion gave a confused noise. Why hadn't Takara been trying harder to catch new pokemon? Well, on one hand, Orion knew that Takara had quite a few pokemon already, but also... well, they could feel the answer. Takara was more here to see how the facility was doing than anything else. They'd have to come back to make sure it was doing well past it's opening week, but if its current state was anything to go by, it would be doing very well in the future.
Either way, they kept pressing on.I Know Exactly Why I Walk and Talk Like a Machine

The Aipom took the Oran Berry a bit sulkily, but soon its expression cleared -- yes, this was a good treat. Holding the berry in both hands to snack on it, Aipom waved goodbye to Takara with its tail, giving a cheery, "Ai!" It had already all but forgotten its upset in the joy of having a nice berry. Arriving at the Mystic Fountain, though, Takara immediately spotted another Pokemon having another tantrum. A small Cleffa trudged about in front of the fountain, sulkily kicking at tufts of grass, thinking about how no one understood and life was so unfair.

Action: Orion asks if they can help!

Takara raised an eyebrow at the small cleffa, unsure of if to approach or leave it be. Yet Orion seemed to have an idea. The ralts tugged on Takara's ponytail and was carefully lowered to the ground. The little fairy walked over to the cleffa and gave a wave of hello, feeling the upset emotions coming from them. He wanted to try and help, if possible, if only to be an ear to listen or a shoulder to lean on.
Takara kept back a bit, but was ready to rush in if needed. Fighting was forbidden here, but the wild pokemon may not know that. But Takara also knew they had to have faith in Orion. The little guy knew what others were feeling and he always felt compelled to help. It was admirable, if anything, but so far Takara had witnessed several baby pokemon that seemed prone to tantrums. It was best to be careful.I Know Exactly Why I Walk and Talk Like a Machine

Cleffa watched warily as Takara lowered Orion to the ground, then observed Orion as he came over to it. However, the wobbliness of Orion's head as he made his way over didn't impress Cleffa. Clearly, this Ralts was a baby (even more baby than Cleffa, though Cleffa would never admit to being a baby). Why did Cleffa always have to hang out with the babies? Couldn't anyone see that it was a grown-up Pokemon now? At least the baby seemed nice, Cleffa supposed; he was asking after it. But Cleffa gave only a sulky, "Clef." It doubted the baby could help.
Cleffa seems slightly displeased with your action. You have 2 more actions before you must either throw a Pokeball or move on. You have 5/5 Safari balls. This is encounter 3/5. Current area: Mystic Fountain

Oh, oh dear. Orion frowned and tilted his head to the side. Well, he didn't really know what to do in this situation. He wandered back over to Takara and fished in the small bag his trainer had brought. There! A berry. Orion wandered back over to the cleffa and held out the berry as an offering. He may not be able to help too much, but maybe he could at least offer a token of goodwill? Berries always cheered him up!
Takara watched, a little concerned and ready to scoop Orion up at the first sign of danger. Although, the cleffa didn't seem to be too terribly dangerous, even for a wild pokemon. Babies were, after all, babies. But pokemon were different. At least their types matched up, so if anything did happen, they could leave without getting into any sort of real scuffle.I Know Exactly Why I Walk and Talk Like a Machine

Cleffa hesitated for a moment, then took the berry Orion offered. It was true: berries did always make everything better. As it gnawed on the berry, Cleffa's mood started to improve, and so did its opinion of Orion. Yes, he was a baby, but he was a nice baby -- and besides, it wasn't Orion's fault that he was a baby. He was doing his best. Cleffa could appreciate that. As it finished the berry, Cleffa looked at Takara curiously, wondering how this ... uh ... large and oddly-shaped Clefable, maybe? Cleffa wanted to know just what Takara was, first of all, and then how they had come to be here with Orion, dispensing delicious treats.

Orion smiled. Good! Things were getting better. He motioned for Takara to come over and, slowly and cautiously, the human did. He knelt back down as Orion began to babble, as if introducing the two. Takara just nodded as if he understood every word. He turned to smile at the Cleffa. "I'm very sorry if we disturbed you," they said softly, gently. "We're just wandering around, looking for pokemon that might want to join our family. Of course, it's always the pokemon's choice. We don't believe in forcing anyone to join us on our travels."
Takara took out a safari ball and held it out. "If you want to join us, just give this a tap. If not, we will happily be on our way. We'll even leave you some more berries to enjoy." They smiled again. Orion waited to see what the decision would be. He wasn't too bent towards either way, but they could understand Takara's thoughts. Maybe Cleffa would become a strong pokemon in the future? Was there promise there?I Know Exactly Why I Walk and Talk Like a Machine

Cleffa considered the Pokeball carefully; it had a feeling that this was a big decision for it to make. It appreciated the way Takara took it -- and even Orion, the baby -- seriously, and they both seemed nice, even if Orion was a baby. Actually, it kind of liked that Orion was a baby: if it went with Takara, it wouldn't be the littlest babiest member of the family. And it would escape the scrutiny of its many interminable aunts who thought it was just the cutest little puff ever. Ugh. Slowly, with a gravitas suiting the importance of the decision, Cleffa stepped forward and tapped the Pokeball, vanishing into it. It shook a few times as Cleffa considered whether it was comfortable inside, then fell still.

Takara pocketed the newest edition to their family. Why they kept collecting children, they would never know. But it was what it was. He stood up, once more picking up Orion, and kept pressing on, looking at the fountain. This was one of their favorite places that had been built. It was even more impressive in person. The various pools of clear water, the moss on the stones. It felt real, it felt here. It felt like it had always existed in this spot. It was an achievement of human innovation and careful conservationist ideals.
Maybe it would last a while, maybe it would grow even more wild and free over time. That was the goal, at least. It looked wild now, but maybe if they left it to its own devices it would do even better.I Know Exactly Why I Walk and Talk Like a Machine

The next Pokemon to approach the fountain did so while humming to itself, planning on a nice cool drink. It paused when it saw Takara and Orion standing in front of the fountain. It had never seen a human before! What a strange ... tall Pokemon? Well, they didn't seem hurt or upset, which meant that they didn't need Chansey's help, or its healing egg. Presumably they would not object to Chansey taking a drink? Greeting Takara and Orion with a polite "Chan," Chansey approached the fountain and took its drink. Then it glanced back at the strangers, wondering if it should talk to them further.

Orion was the first to alert Takara to the pokemon approaching. They turned and smiled at the Chansey, giving a polite bow of the head and stepping out of the way so she could take a drink from the fountain. Takara looked at Orion, the little pokemon seeming very curious about this strange, round pink thing with an egg in a pouch. Takara smiled. "Excuse me, Chansey," Takara said, "but I believe Orion here would like to talk to you, do you have any objections?" They asked, Orion giving a shy smile while trying to hide behind Takara's ponytail. They chuckled. "It's alright," Takara soothed the young pokemon. They didn't know why Orion was nervous all of a sudden, but Chansey did give off mom energy. Maybe Orion was missing his mother?
Takara had never thought of it before... there may be a pokemon out there looking for Orion to ensure he was safe. Well, that was going to keep Takara up at night. Did he break up a family unit by accident? Maybe if they found Orion's parents he could see if Orion wanted to go home, even though the young ralts seemed very attached to him.I Know Exactly Why I Walk and Talk Like a Machine

Chansey let out a polite "Chan" of thanks as Orion created a path to the fountain for it; it took its drink. Ah, nice. The fountain's water was always slightly sweet, a very nice taste. Then it turned back to Orion seeing his curiosity and shyness. Oh, that was cute! How could it say no to the little Ralts' request for a conversation? It nodded and sat on the ground before the fountain, not wanting to increase Orion's nerves by approaching him directly. Instead it would let the little Ralts be the one to come to it, at whatever pace made him comfortable.

Action: Orion starts to ask the chansey about herself!
Items: 0/3
Takara lowered Orion to the ground and the little ralts took a few nervous steps forward before looking back at Takara. The human just smiled encouragingly. The expression and emotions coming from Takara and the chansey helped Orion move forward and look up at the chansey. He gave a happy wave and started to ask her about herself. What exactly was she? Was she always this nice and always have these nice emotions? It was... nice to feel a pokemon that seemed to keep calm even when near unknown entities. Orion himself often got nervous around the unknown and saw Takara as a sort of protector, but she didn't seem scared at all!
Takara watched, keeping an eye out for any signs of trouble. Orion was getting larger as he aged but he was still rather small and... delicate. But Takara knew it'd just be a matter of time before the ralts got big and evolved. Shri was already starting to push her limits. She almost came up to their hip now and she was starting to act... different. Takara wondered if Orion would act different as well when he got older. He'd have to be a teenager eventually, right?I Know Exactly Why I Walk and Talk Like a Machine

Oh? Orion wanted to know about Chansey? How sweet! Chansey quickly found itself charmed by Orion's own gentle, quiet manner. It could tell that he was very young and looking for guidance, and Chansey was happy enough -- flattered, even -- to give it. "Chansey," she said, to answer the question of what she was. "Chan chan," she added, explaining that it was in a Chansey's nature to stay calm and help others. She could sense emotions like Orion could, but she also knew how to help when emotions turned negative, giving her some confidence and self-assurance. If things went bad, she could always offer someone her healing egg.

Orion listened intently, amazed and in awe at this pokemon's words. A healing egg? Able to help when things went bad? He thought about this and looked back at Takara. Orion had only seen the human angry on the outside once, and it was a horrifying experience. He thought one of the board members would end up going to the hospital, but Takara had maintained control of that rage and shut the meeting down early. Orion didn't know how to help calm his trainer's anger... he didn't even know if he could. But this Chansey...
Orion ran over to Takara and pulled the human down so he could rummage through the bag. Orion pulled out one of the safari balls and approached the Chansey again, holding it out. He explained that her powers and abilities might be able to help his trainer, Takara. Orion tried to explain how stressed Takara was all the time and no one on the team could help. But she maybe could! She was an expert! And... and he wouldn't mind having her join him... to teach him how she does these things. How she helps others.
He couldn't make an egg or anything, but he wouldn't mind some guidance from her. As a teacher. And if she didn't want to join the family, maybe he could come here for lessons every now and then. Takara would bring him!I Know Exactly Why I Walk and Talk Like a Machine
