Action; Cherrygrove
Ivy stands by the shore of Cherrygrove, her Bulbasaur laid beside her feet, basking in the afternoon sun as its Hoppip teammate rides the ocean waves. Ivy herself has the expression of puzzling out something, looking between the Flabébé floating infront of her and the device in her hand.

"Realistically, this is my own fault. I shouldn't have just assumed that you were a Grass type simply because you held a flower. It is rather obvious you are simply holding the bloom."

The Flabébé lets out a pleasant noise and sways back and forth.

"Though it does say here you hold a special relationship with the flower you choose. And there are theories that you and the flower share a symbiotic."

She peers are the large red bloom.

"That would explain why it never wilts."

Hello there everyone. So I have been doing some reading and it appears there is a whole sub division of these creatures based on plant life. Referred to as 'Grass', I believe? I'm not entirely sure how accurate is it to name a whole diverse sub species after Poaceae but I am a little out of my element here. Speaking of which, I would be very interested in collecting a vast array of specimens that fall into this 'Grass typing'. So, if anyone would be kind enough let me know where I could get some.

Not far, Ash spotted the Hoppip in the sky and grinned, chasing after her. He loved Hoppips, they were so cute and sweet!

"Oh hey, is this one yours?" He asked, smiling and waving to Ivy as he approached her. At his side is a midday Lycanroc, Cú, who is wagging ehr tail and bounding alongside him.

Then he spotted the Bulbasaur. "Oh shit, hey! Wow you're like...a dinosaur with a flower on your back? Don't that hurt?"

Ivy looks up at the new arrival and looks him over before gracing him with a small smile. "She is."

The Bulbasaur looks up at Ash and lets out a contented 'Saur' before closing its eyes and going back to soaking up the sunshine.

Her trainer, meanwhile, is looking at the canine beside Ash. "You have wolf, I see."

"Huh? Oh yeah, this is Cú! I got other Pokemon too but she doesn't like being cooped up in her ball for too much. Oh, you're not allergic right?" He patted his side and Cú obediently walked to his side, sniffing at his hand to look for treats.

"I've seen Hoppips before, they're really cute. But I never seen one of these. What'd ya name 'em?"

"Oh, no. I don't have allergies. I have quite the strong immune system." She allows herself an amused smirk before looking up at the pink Pokémon floating above their heads. "That is Tara. After doing some research, I thought naming her after a dandelion would be fitting."

Ivy crouches for a moment to stroke the top of the Bulbasaur's head. "This species appears to be called Bulbasaur. Which, is a rather apt if not crude name. I've decided to name her Tyler."

She gestures to the Flabébé. "And I'm afraid I haven't quite chosen a name for her yet."

"You know a lot about flowers? Well then I reckon she'll get along great with ya-" He nodded to the Flabébé. "I heard something about them having a real green thumb, so I'm guessing she'd get along great with Tara and Tyler."

Well, he was assuming she liked flowers given she had quite a few grass types already and could give them names to do with their species or specific types of dandelion. "Well, it's nice to meet all of ya! I only got one grass type myself and I ain't smart enough to come up with a clever herbology kinda name for her."

"It's a bit of a passion of mine." She looks at the little fairy. "Well, then. I would be rude of me to turn away help."

He peaks her interest with the mention of a Grass Pokemon. "May I see her?"

"Oh, sure!" he unclipped the pokeball form his belt and let it open, revealing a large Pumpkaboo, who immediately floated up and lodged itself in Ash's arms. But she was looking at Ivy and her Pokemon curiously.

"This is Psychopump! She's adorable, right?" Ash didn't know shit about flowers but you didn't need to know anything about plants to know that his Pumpkaboo is pretty damn cute, okay.

Ivy's face lights up the moment the Pumpkaboo appears. "She's gorgeous."

Flabébé greets it cheerfully whilst the other two continue their own business.

She leans closer to coo over the creature like it was an infant. "And where did you find such a cutie?"

Ash beamed proudly, as Psychopump blinked up at Ivy, before smiling and showing off her little fangs. >:D

"I found her at this haunted tower kind of place; she's part Ghost, so that's probably why she was hanging out there! It's in Violet City."

"Oh, aren't you a tough looking little one?"

She reaches out her hand slowly to see if the Pumpkaboo will accept the touch as she looks up at Ash. "An unusual name choice."

"It's more a ghost thing." Ash admittedly sheepishly. "I think it's like, a medium? One of my buds used it as a codename kinda. But Psychopump, Pumpkin. It seemed to suit her."

Psychopump didn't bite. She smiled and accepted the petting, even floating up a little so she could get chin scratches just where she wanted them.

Ivy continues to pet Psychopump. "Hmm, well, if she's happy with it then that's what matters."

She straightens up. "With all these little friends does that mean you've been here long?"

"nah. I arrived about...star tof March, end of February? Shit, time really flies. But there's people who have been here for years. To them I'm just some dumbass punk who don't get shit." He shrugged. The Lycanroc t his side butted his thigh, using the rocks in her mane to dig at him. "Ow! Okay okay, I mean; They're right in that I probably don't know much by comparison. But I'm trying to learn."

He gave Ivy a smile. "See what I gotta live with? But so far it seems most of the grass Pokemon I've met are real sweethearts, so they won't go round jabbing you with their thorns or something."

Ivy arches her brow at his language but doesn't comment. She does smile at his dogs affection towards his though. "Well, at least you're willing to learn."

"Plants rarely have malicious intent. They're wonderfully sweet like that."

"Yeah. Someone told me that ghosts are major arseholes, but that ain't true. Psychopump's a sweetheart and I got another ghost called Casper, he's great too."

He missed the brow raise at his language. Ash hadn't exactly been taught to not swear. "There's so many to find around here too! I mean, I got a ton; neither of these are the Pokemon I was given when I first came here. Which one's your starter?"

"Well, perhaps these ghosts have no reason to be angry."

Ivy gently picks up the green reptile from the sand and pets the top of her head. "This is the little one I was given when I woke up. Yours was different?"

"Yeah. I got a Riolu but he's hatched since then. Now he's a Lucario!" Ash pulled out another ball and out comes a Lucario wearing a bandanna around it's neck. He give sa happy boof at being let out and then grins and waves to Ivy.

"This is Danny! He used to be a lot smaller, and he didn't have the spikes he does now. He's great."

"Hatched?" An odd choice of words.

She gives the new arrival a smile. "Interesting. Do you have a preference for canines?"

"Well, I do like dogs in general! I just ended up with a bunch so far. What I really wanna get hold of is a seal Pokemon! My family's got this thing with 'em, and I know they're out there. But apparently they're super rare to find."

"I'm sorry. Could you explain to me what you mean when you said 'evolved'? Because I think the word holds a different meaning where I come from."

Ivy casts her gaze out to the ocean beside them. "I see. And, do you have to find all the creatures you want or can you purchase them?"

"They're all running around in the wild. I mean, sometimes people have Pokemon that love each other very much and they get lil babies to sell but it's not like you can go into a pet store and just pick 'em out." He turned and looked out to the ocean with her, breathing in deep and letting the beat of the waves sink into him. It was really soothing.

"As for evolving like...hold on, I got a picture." He opened his gear and flipped through it, showing Ivy a picture of a bright eyed Riolu. "He looked like this! But one day we were out running and trying out some stuff and afterwards he just became covered in white light and when it cleared, there he was." Ash gestured to the Danny beside him, grinned and flex his arms playfully. Here he is, behold the magnificant Danny the Lucario!

Ivy has to resist rolling her eyes at the youngster trying to explain to her how babies came into existence.

She looks at the picture and furrows her brow in thought. "So he completely changed appearance?" Sounded less like evolution and more like metamorphosis, which leads to her next question. "These creatures aren't all amphibians or insects, are they?"

"Nope, but they all lay eggs too. And there's ones that are like, exploding balls, or floating magnets and shit. I don't think you can try and use biology to explain Pokemon."

Ash shrugged. Given he had never shone at Biology, it was easy for him to simply roll with 'everything comes from eggs and also here's a living metal ball it will be your friend or it might electrocute you'.

Her eyes widen in surprise. "They all lay eggs? Even the Grass ones? And the mammalian ones?" That is strange.

She was used to having adapt her knowledge and having the rules of the universe bent on her, but still throwing out her entire education was going to take a moment.
