GRAND CENTRAL STATION - Violet City Pokemon Center
"Y-yes sir, right away."
The Violet City Pokemon Center was overrun. Henry was surrounded by upset Pokemon and even more upset Pokemon Trainers this night. The Joys had their hands full and that meant Henry had been temporarily promoted from secretary to nurse. Luckily none of the Pokemon that were crowding up the place were hurt--just. Very very inconvenienced and in need of some slightly more professional help. There was a Tangela with knots tied in her tangles. There was a Teddiursa so wrapped up in toilet paper that he couldn't move. An entire flock of Swellow were stuck together with bubble gum and Henry was right in the middle of it all trying to record and sooth patients all at once.
His shift went on and on like that and honestly, Henry kind of liked it. It felt good to jump back into the groove of helping people and Pokemon after his absence. It was a great way to chase the memories of the dank world he'd left behind from his head. He didn't have to be the Receiver of Wisdom any longer. Tonight he was a healer.
When Henry wasn't busy doing patient intake or helping comb the glitter glue out of Stoutlands, he was hanging outside the back entrance soothing his nerves with a quick coffee break. If you're especially crafty, you might catch him sneaking a smoke.
SCAREDY CAT-- Violet City
"It's not real I promise...why are you scared, you wanted this."
"WEEEOOOWOWWWWWMMMM!" This was the sound of a distraught Alolan Meowth that was perched on top of a lamp post. Henry had been on his way to the hotel from work when the shy little Dark-type had given his sleeve a tug. He'd been so polite and after seeing all the trouble the rowdier Pokemon had caused, Henry thought it might be a good idea to reward such good behavior.
It had turned out to be...taxing.
Henry stood below the Meowth with his arms stretched up. "It was just a kid in a sheet! You didn't even get your candy, come down."
"MAAAOOOWWWOOWWOOWWWW!"
Henry groaned and dragged his hands down his face. He could have been tucked in his nice hotel bed watching crappy hotel TV with a bunch of marked-down candy. Well, there was one way he could end this. He un-clipped an empty Poke'ball from his belt and expanded it.
"Okay, cat, you want to go trick-or-treating, we're going trick-or-treating."
With a grunt, he threw the ball and in a flash of light, the scared Pokemon allowed itself to be captured.
That was the beginning. Once he'd gotten his new Meowth his own costume--a simple sheet with holes cut out just like the one that had scared him to begin with--they started their quest. Henry was determined to show the little Pokemon there was nothing really to be scared of. Little did he know that was going to be way harder than he thought...
OTA- Wildcard! Come up with something yourself! Even buzz in on his Poke'Gear if you like!!
