Hoenn Seafarer Program

His eyebrows scrunched in thought, Roger taps a Pokeball.The bright flash solidified into the broad form of a Rhydon. Grunting a greeting at it's trainer, the large rock type looks over the children with a bored disposition. "Take Enceinte and gather up something to burn. No trees this time."

As the two disappear into the treeline, or rather Enciente disappears as the faint stomps of the Rhydon echo out, Roger plops down into a lazy sprawl. "You kids may as well release your team. Bonding is especially important in the early stages." Rolling over to prepare his bedding, he continues. "It's good of you to not try to coast on Malakai's rep, but just being under him is going to mark you out to people who've interacted with him."

"Most people assume that because it's rare for ACE trainer's to have apprentices." He fixes Hannah a firm stare.

Get any last minute questions prepped, as well as anything you want to handle before bed.

Desmond doesn't seem to have any questions for Roger, his journey had just begun and nothing major had called out to him yet. It was great to ask for questions and get help when needed, but Desmond wanted to find his own footing first before worrying about anything he needed help with. Needed to leave the nest before asking others how to fly, so to speak.

Desmond does shrug whenever he's told to release his entire team however. Blitz is the only one he has right now, so with a sharp whistle he signals for Blitz to run over. Together they try to prepare a tent and a place to sleep for the night, working together and better working out kinks on small things before they have any big battles.

Desmond does take note of the rather large Rhydon, but other than admiring its form quickly loses interest in it. It's not a dragon after all.

Hannah huffs, visibly amused at Roger's words. "And you would be familiar with how ACE functions then? How curious." Her smile becomes a touch mocking as she shrugs uncaringly in the face of his stare. "People see what they want to see. And you know what they say about assumptions. 'Apprentice', indeed."

Then, her smile fades as she stares back at the man, her gaze just as firm as his. "Were this not special circumstances, for both the Seafarers and myself, I wouldn't have shared even that much information. I have no desire to advertise my situation to the entire world. And, ultimately, this does not concern you."

Intimidation: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10
InspirationReroll: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22

Rising to her feet, Hannah gives Roger one last look before walking away with her Blitzle to set up her own tent and bedding.

Going to train Double Kick before going to bed.

Roger stays silent except for when he's setting up his bedding, and he lets out Surskit. Observing this new group from where he is sitting, he just spends more time with the pond skater, hoping to get her more comfortable around himself and treecko. He selects a ration from his pack for him to consume tonight. Ration selection: 1d8 ⇒ 2 this is from a thing a bit ago, that will have a payoff that may or may not be funny

He looks to the bug near him and just tries to figure out from her general disposition, what her thoughts on him are.
Insight (Vibe Checking the bug): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Bonding with Surskit
Animal Handling: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18

To himself he mutters "So this is all that remains of the Seafarer's project huh? Maybe this new hodgepodge group can pull through on our delivery job"
