Cassidy exited the lab with a sigh, kind of disappointed now that nothing had been around. She grimaced, figuring she would just head home. Yet, there was still some of that screaming. Meaning that that woman was still in trouble and needed help. Cassidy quickly sped up her pace and made her way towards the area where between a small path of trees would lead to a route nearby towards the next town over. She rounded the corner, noticing a few things. First, the said woman was really a man, and second, he was pretty hysterical as a zigzagoon stared him down, cornered up against a thick foliage area. He called to her, asking to take one of the pokeballs from the bag. Well, may as well. She went over and opened it up, looking inside. Each one labeled. The one that really caught her attention was the ball labeled "Treecko". This one she chose and released the pokemon within.
The small gecko pokemon blinked a bit in the light before looking around, and back towards Cassidy. "Uhm... Quick! Use Pound!" Cassidy called and pointed towards the zigzagoon. Treecko gave a slight nod before he sped over and hit the zigzagoon with his tail. Caught off guard it wheeled around. Then it sprang towards the treecko. "Get out of the way!" Cassidy called. The treecko quickly leaped upwards. "Go down and use Pound!" Cassidy called again. Treecko did so, and spinning in the air slammed his tail down on the zigzagoon's head. "Keep it up!" She called. Relentlessly, the treecko kapt slamming the zigzagoon with his tail, his speedy movement giving the thing no time to react. Eventually is hissed and scampered away weakly, defeated. Cassidy was confronted by the professor after that, told to go to the lab. Meanwhile he seemed to make a quick phone call. To some person named Griffith it seemed.
Soon enough she was in the lab, waiting here. Birch as the man was known had offered her the treecko to keep. "Uhm... S- sure!" She said, excited. She looked to the treecko on her shoulder. "Hey, mind if I call you Jethro?" She asked. "Yeah, no problem. Nice to meet you!" He said in a polite manner. Cassidy smiled. "Thanks. My name is Cassidy by the way!" She introduced herself. Now they had to wait for this Griffith guy for whatever reason. Well, whatever it was it was hopefully for good reason. Cassidy was so excited to tell her mother about this. She was going to finally begin her journey as a trainer! And yes it would be challenging, but that was part of the excitement.
Then another thing. She realized how she would even be facing her own father some day as well! That would really be quite the day, as she knew how her father was the Petalburg gym leader. She had always been curious why he had stayed so. But it was a cute story how her mother and him met. He had apparently been a big fan back in their younger days, and with her being the Kanto and Johto champion meant she got a lot of attention. Story goes that she ended up tripping over his slakoth and after that the two sort of just hit it off. They started dating, got married, next thing they knew they were stuck with a troublesome pair of twins. She wondered how her brother was doing anyways.
