Theo sat atop a low rock just east of Pine Town overlooking the mouth of a cave. A puff of smoke slipped from his lips as he slowly craned his neck, stretching the muscles there. Toxer snoozed in the grass beside him. Croaking snores sounding from him every now and then reassuring Theo that he was, in fact, alive. He had done some prepping for their plans to spelunk. If you counted prepping as buying a head lamp and a bunch more energy drinks than he normally would. Last time he had willingly gone into a cave it was in hopes of finding a Whismur, and he had been graced with Dubbie that day.

Now it was just another leg on a larger adventure. I real push at the Trainer thing. Maybe make a little something of himself in the meantime. He couldn’t hang out on his dad’s couch forever listening to old records and catching live acts at the gym. Now was his time to step up and take his shot. See where he landed and buy his own couch to hang out on. His own old records to pull from and maybe he could make a few albums like his old man did with Roxie. Koffing and the Toxics started somewhere right?

Putting out his cigarette on his boot and adjusting his headlamp he pulled up his hood. With a gentle nudge of his boot he roused Toxer and nodded towards the cave. There was a groan but he was quickly on his feet and stretching. Theo clicked his headphones on and cycled through the music til he found a nice beat to blare as they hung from his neck. With one final borderline attempt at limbering up Theo adjusted his pack and the two slipped into the mouth of the cave.

It was still light outside so inside the mouth of the cave some light carried over but it didn’t get as far as Theo had hoped it would. Still it didn’t seem to be too hard to traverse. It was a Route on the Pokemon League after all so it saw maintenance and was regulated to make sure peoples Pokemon Journeys would be safe. Still it was a cave. The temperature dropped as soon as they entered though it also became apparent to Theo that his light might not be as necessary as he had thought.

The cave glowed. Or at least the vegetation that grew inside the cave did. It glowed in several different shades and layed out the innards of the cave rather nicely. Still Theo kept the lamp on his head. He’d rather not be caught scrambling for it if they suddenly were to need it. This was on a whole other level than Rusturf tunnel was. Still he didn’t let it discourage him. He would move at his own snail pace.

”Come on, bud.” He called back to Toxer and his voice carried through the cave. It caused him to stare out in disbelief and chuckle. “Cool.” He was sad his headphones couldn’t get loud enough to echo through the cave but it was probably for the best. A twinkle against the cave light caught his eye among some of the glowing moss on the cave wall. Theo approached and noticed a small charm had gotten caught in the growth. No doubt caught off some unlucky trainers path.

”Looks like someone lost a good luck charm. Guess their luck changed over to us huh?” He slowly unhooked it from the moss and bounced it in his hand. Clipping it to his headphone cord he nodded to himself and imagined a nice wave of fresh luck washing over them. No doubt this cave was gonna go a lot better for them than Route 6 had.

Theo tingled with excitement at his new find. Determined to make the most of the trip beneath the earths surface. Granted there was a level of nervousness underlaying that as well. Caves meant a lot of ground types and that was, historically speaking, a major issue with the teams he ran. Thankfully he had managed to get a Totodile by chance while in Pine Town so he had a trigger finger for his Water type right now to save his buddy Toxer some ground type grief.

As he rounded a glowing stalagttite he froze in his tracks, From a small shadowed spot towards the base of a far wall he was two glowing white eyes. He waved out a hand at Toxer to stop him before he came too far around the corner, His hand quickly withdrew the first Pokeball from his belt and tossed it forward. A flash of red and a small, peaceful looking Totodile looked around the cave.

”Elton! Big debut! Water Gun right there!” He pointed at the wall and the Pokemon folled his extended index finger. His toothy maw opened and from it a stream of focused water pelted at the white eyes coming from the shadows. They was an immediate crash as the stream hit what appeared to be a solid structure, The two white orbs, seemingly caked in the wall, rolled out with the water and floated down to where the water pooled down the cave.

”What the…” Theo shuffled foward to inspect what had fallen from the apparent wall he thought was a Pokemon and discovered to small Apricorns. He chuckled to himself and held them up to his companions. Apparently he was a little jumpy.
