"I'd like... erm... Ninemone. Is that okay?" Phil asked. He felt at home around water and water-type pokemon, but Sukus is said to suck human blood, and he didn't like scary pokemon like that, so he decided to take Ninemone. Not that he knew what it looked like, or even how it acted.

Phil walked over to the group of pokeballs and picked one up. After holding it up and nervously pressing the button on the front, a red stream of energy flew out of the pokeball. It swirled and eventually formed into a finite shape, suddenly changing into a pokemon. It looked up at Phil, its obviously showing some kind of emotion, but it was not something Phil could understand. After a few moments of staring at eachother, the creature began flapping its hair, or whatever those pink things were. "I really need to know more about it," Phil thought. Just at that instant, Ninemone began to move.

Faster than Phil would have thought possible it ran behind a table, scattering pokeballs as it went. "So that emotion was fear," Phil realized. Phil walked over to it, but it simply ran away again. Finally, Phil gave up and returned it to its pokeball. He walked over to the scanner and placed the pokeball in the slot, watching with fascination as the screen lit up.

Phil stood there staring at Aaron for a moment before he realized what had just been said. He wanted time to connect with his Ninemone and train before any fights! "Well, I guess the adventure has to start sometime," Phil said quietly to himself. "Go Ninemone!" He shouted, and he pressed the button on the front of the pokeball, releasing his new companion. Ninemone was facing away from Phil and looked around in front of it. After it decided that there wasn't any immediate threats, it sat down and began to move its hair slowly and rhythmically, almost as if it were playing an invisible musical instrument.

Phil and Ninemone waited for Aaron to send out his first pokemon.

Ninemone slowly sat in the nice grass, letting the sun's rays flow over it. Suddenly a strange sound echoed all around and it spied a flash of red light out of the corner of its eye. It turned to look at a strange black thing that it had never seen before. As it watched, the creature let out a terrifying noise that made Ninemone want to run as fast as it possibly could. It looked around with only one thing on its mind: get away from that black thing. It saw something that looked big enough to hide behind and ran as fast as it possibly could. After what seemed like ages, Ninemone arrived at safety. Slowly it looked out and saw the thing, now farther away, looking at it.

Phil looked down at the obviously panicked Ninemone that had just run towards him. It was now situated so that Phil's legs were between it and Nevermore. Why couldn't I have picked a brave, strong starter? Phil thought. Well, I'll work with what I have. "Ninemone!" Phil called. "Use pound on the Nevermore!"

Ninemone heard a noise and looked up to see the - what were they called? Human? - looking down at it. By the way it was pointing Ninemone figured out that the human wanted it to attack that thing on the other side of the field. "Are you insane?" Ninemone called upwards.

"nemone, nine!" the Ninemone called up at Phil. He couldn't understand it, but it was clear that the last thing it was going to do was go over and attack the Nevermore. "Okay, fine... Growl at it."

The human said something like shout... or was it yell? Regardless, anything was better than going near that monster, so Ninemone puffed up its chest and let out the loudest noise it could manage.

(OOC: Is there any set background about the starter pokemon or can I make things up? Also, is it okay to have some parts from the Pokemon's perspective?)
