"The trainer claimed he had not deregistered Pinsir, and the GPC's computer system confirmed that the Pokemon was still registered to this trainer. So it was either some kind of mixup in the system, or I guess there's a possibility Pinsir became deregistered by Wineberry's committee. You can't just re-register a released Pokemon, you know. You'd have to catch it again or run it through an approved Trading Machine."

"I'm not ruling out anything quite yet.  Guess I'll have to pay Cress City a visit next, though...alright, less serious topic next: my companions said you guys had some Unown hanging around here.  What's up with that?"

"We have three Unown - K, !, and S. I assume they came from the Ruins - they can be found even amid the barrows. Sometimes foolish trainers go in there as a dare and capture them. That's definitely what happened to !. S has actually been here at the shelter since it was founded; one of the first Pokemon surrendered to us. It had been in a family for generations, but never used. Luckily they take up no space. K was sent to us from someone who purchased it and regretted their purchase. Unown are not great in battle, and surprisingly disobedient for their size. They often act like they don't even understand us."

"Mind if I get a look at 'em?  I've got a bit of an interest in their species due to some recent events.  And I have a pokemon that would likely be somewhat interested in seeing them as well."

Director North: "Come in, come in! I heard you have some sort of proposal for me. I'd love to hear it! We try to be as flexible as possible if it ensures a good home for our Pokemon."

Director North is wearing a nice hat, much like Nathan's fedora, and a neat necktie over a T-shirt. All the furniture in his office is clearly salvaged from yard sales or maybe even dumpsters! The door to his office was obviously adapted from one of the cells where patients are kept.

Just like Ventus, Shiva gave Director North a bow that probably looked a little too respectful and graceful. Though, if she desires for that Gothitelle and the pink Mystery Egg in her care by working at the Shelter, she has to give a positive first impression... The atmosphere here in the office was somewhat different from what she may have expected though. Not in a bad way however! It shows to her that the Director is probably a more free-spirited person. Given the cheaper furniture in his office, it seems all fund indeed go to the Shelter - the Pokemon and their wellbeing seems to be his main concern. This gave Shiva a faintly confident feeling, as she has the feeling that she does have the potential to be a good owner/Master to that Gothitelle... Seems she just have to convince the Director about that.

"Greetings and good morning as well. People call me Shiva (she still doesn't give her surname in introductions), and just like Ventus here I originate from Unova and am traveling this region. The Pokemon I am interested in obtaining is the Gothitelle that, according to the receptionist that gave us a very good Tour through the Shelter, came to this place on its own. I already got to know it a little yesterday and to my feels, this particular Pokemon agreed to come with me. However, Sir, you are aware why we desire to speak to you instead simply adopting the Gothitelle and the Kingdra?"

The Deltamon dives down through the gazebo into the Library area. Heart manages to keep up this time. Down in the library's Media Center, he sees it dive straight toward a computer screen! Instead of crashing, it simply fades into the machine.

"The heck...?" Say Heart finally able to see the Deltamon "dive" in that computer. He decided to inspect the computer to see what happen. To make sure that Deltamon dont attack him, he bring again Viktor out of his Pokeball. "Okay Viktor. This time we make sure he dont escape. If the Deltamon escapes, use Confuse Ray in him okay?" Then Heart go a little close to the computer and take a inspection to see If the Deltamon its inside the machine or It is escaped, and he do a few taps in the computer to see If he go out.

The Pokemon doesn't come flying out, nor is there any evidence of it being somehow inside the computer. Except for one thing: you notice the CPU is running at 99% capacity.

"Damn. I was so close this time." Heart was frustrate for not have any luck in find that Deltamon. "Well, back to zero point I guess..." Heart call back Rose and decided to go. "A Pokémon who can enter computers....Nathan was right. It might be a Delta Porygon. Next time I will a little more careful. Welp, since I already awake I could hunt any interesting Pokémon and perhaps add to my team. With all this mess with the vines, perhaps a little pair of power would help a lot."

Action: Find some Pokémon to increase the mood of Heart.

"Yes, our guests are all out in the common area for play right now. You can find them through the door marked "Inmate Room. They hang out near the window."

[Iron]

Director: "Oh, it's more common than you might think. Financial troubles, right? Well, it doesn't cost much for a trainer to raise a Pokemon, comparatively, so we do sometimes make compromises. You must understand ahead of time, however, that it is not free for us to raise a Pokemon without the income from battles, with all the costs of extra help and board, etc."

[Iron]

Heart, where would you like to look for Pokemon? You already know there's Nidos and other plains Pokemon to the south. Mountain Pokemon in any direction. Normal types in Mount Sentry. Probably some grass types if you have a plan for risking the vines. Ghost Pokemon in the Ruins, though that's not recommended for solo trainers.

"Alrighty then.  Come on, Kirlia.  Let's go meet some Unown."

Rotom, Kingdra, Tentacruel, Delcatty, Crustle, Ariados, Krokorok, Pyroar, Gothitelle, Unown, Zebstrika, Cloyster, Hypno, Voltorb (*shudder*), Persian...and a couple of those Tangrowth as well...there's certainly a large variety of pokemon in here...

(Anything in particular happen with the Unown, Rotom, and/or Gothitelle upon entering the room?)

"Of course it's not free to raise a Pokemon. Some species desire special diet, others a particular habit to be happy... It's similar to why especially bred Pokemon have their prize. Father leads a Daycare specialised in the breeding of customised Pokemon and it occurs at a regular basis that a customer gives particular parents into our care. Each day we host these parental Pokemon will be charged and added to the final invoice. So you have my understanding in this point, Sir."

"This is the reason why I have an offer about that, but at first - would you care to tell me the average costs for hosting a Pokemon like Gothitelle or how much you'd be willing to lower the fine? The adopting fine for this Pokemon was 5500$, according to one of the receptionists."
