Tyler stared at a rather odd commotion that had been going on in front of him. While he did need to go and get a Starter Pokemon from the Lab nearby, he could hear a lot of chaos inside and he could see mayhem in all kinds spinning around. He hesitated, running a hand through his hair, before slowly approaching. It was going to be a long first day as a trainer...

Stepping inside the laboratory, Tyler had a peek around. It had quietened down and he could see a lot of trainers gathered around. Some had various starter Pokemon by their side; they all seemed to be new to having their Pokemon. Tyler sighed, seeing they were already talking to the Professor. He uneasily walked over to a Lab Assistant.

"Er, hi. I don't suppose now would be a good time to ask about getting a Starter Pokemon? My name's Tyler, I'm here for the tournament." He pulled the Golden Ticket out of his pocket. "I've got this." He smiled awkwardly at the Assistant, who gave him a reassuring smile.
"Of course. We've had some...issues, but things are getting back on track a bit. If you'd like to pick a Starter Pokemon, please go ahead." She beckoned Tyler to a shelf. A lot of PokeBalls were missing and others were being replaced by an Assistant. Tyler focussed on each PokeBall, before smiling and nodding. He grabbed one.
"Charmander," he said to himself. "Charmander is who I choose."

Tyler managed to overhear the last of Professor Oak's speech on a mysterious Pokemon that he'd seen and drawn, but Tyler didn't move over to see the picture. He hung back still, having not even opened his new PokeBall. He reassured himself it would be like working alongside the various Pokemon at the Dragon's Den. With a flick of his wrist, he opened the PokeBall and a small Charmander popped out. It looked up at Tyler, who stared at the small orange reptile. "So, little guy, looks like we're going to be a team." He grinned as Charmander snorted up at him. "Need to name you too. Phyre sound good?" The Charmander nodded slightly before flicking its tail. It smiled a little. Tyler smiled back, returning Phyre to his PokeBall and looking around again. He still hung back, noticing people starting to move. They were tracking down the rest of the missing Pokemon, it seemed. It would be a good time to introduce himself, he thought, but for now he just watched silently, filling in his forms for his starter kit. He was annoyed he'd missed a chance to speak to the Professor or Hoenn Champion. He handed the forms over to the Lab Assistant before walking away a little again. He was by himself, for now.
