Staring at the small, fire-type chick in front of her, Andora felt a small, giddy laugh bubble in her throat. "He's adorable, Professor!" She exclaimed, kneeling down to the Torchic's level. The dark-skinned girl held out a hand for the Torchic - to which he stared at it.
"Tor! Torchic!" The Pokemon sang out, finally responding by running at her hand. As the chick nuzzled into the hand, Andora noted that even his face was warm. She wondered how warm he'd feel to actually hug him, then.
"What should I name you, buddy?" The new trainer questioned out loud as the Torchic busied himself with pets. "Helios, maybe?"
"Chic..." He grumbled, giving Andora a displeased look.
"I'll take that as a 'no.' How about Mars, then?"
"Torchic! Torchic!" The Torchic finally responded in a way that seemed he was pleased with the name suggestion.
"Mars it is then, bud." She gave a smile before stopping petting Mars. He once again gave a grumble, but stopped short when he watched her open her arms wide, as if for a hug. When her new Pokemon gave a confused tilt of the head, she couldn't help but give a small chuckle. "C'mere!"
Understanding what Andora meant, Mars seemingly brightened up and practically leapt into her arms. With a surprised noise, she quickly wrapped her arms around the chick, feeling the warmth of him envelop her. Andora stood up from her kneeling position while still cradling her Pokemon in her arms. After thanking the Professor for the honour of having Mars as her Pokemon, she set out the door.
"You ready for an adventure?" Andora asked Mars, moving a hand to be able to softly pet the fire-type. She was setting off towards the grasses - after all, she's always loved adventuring through them and watching the Pokemon, so now, with Mars, she wants to share it with him.
"Tor!" He exclaimed, and the girl felt him puff up against her. A small chuckle left her as she started to think he might be more excited at the idea of battling more than just adventure.
