((Just wanted to say that Rose will get more confident and actually start trusting other people in the group and doing more than quietly following along over time))

Rose followed along quietly. She was very excited about everything that had happened. She had not only received her first Pokemon, but battled some Pokemon and made her first capture. The day wasn't even over yet. She followed the rest of the group to the Pokemon center, trying to stay near Meg. Rocky didn't seem bad, but she still didn't quite feel comfortable with him. Max seemed nice. He had been leading for a while, and had saved her from the Tauros. But Meg was the only one in the group Rose really knew she could strongly trust, and aside from what people had said introducing themselves, Rose really knew nothing about anyone else. Still though, no one else knew anything about her either. Maybe she just wasn't giving everyone enough of a chance. Giving them a chance though would require interaction with them, and she was too nervous to take the first step towards saying anything to them.

Rose gave Nurse Joy her Pokeballs. A short time later her Pokemon came back healed. She let her Rattata out of it's Pokeball. She wanted to make a top percentage joke, but decided to avoid breaking the fourth wall. Oops. Too late.

The Rattata seemed startled. It darted it's head around rapidly, as if trying to figure out where it was. "Hmm... I guess you'll need a name too." Rose said. The normal type looked up at her questioningly. "I guess I'll have to think about it. For now I'm going to put you back in your Pokeball." She said. She proceeded to do just that. "Come on Amirah." She said to her partner, turning to walk towards the entrance to the Pokemon center. The psychic type followed behind, letting out a ringing noise. The group seemed to be splitting up. Rose tried to stay close to the people she knew best.
