Ernest was able to block it as the Rockruff recovered. "Marley, Tackle!" he said. Marley jumped and impacted the Cubone, the two Pokemon rolling together before coming to a stop. Another Pokeball in the fray...

That seemed to do the trick! Rockruff got to its paws, shook its matted head as the Pokeball wiggled. Once, twice, thrice, then poof! Ernest's first capture of this region, a runty little Cubone. In some ways, it reminded him of himself, though even he couldn't express entirely why.
"I'll take care of you, little fella," he whispered. He peered around the rock in hopes of touting his new capture, but Ramona was nowhere to be found. She already ran off, huh? He called her name, suddenly well aware of the canyon dip he had pointed out earlier. The Cubone was suddenly the last thing on his mind now.

As Dad went off, Ramona went in another direction. She found a ledge where the land dropped just a few feet, and took a few moments to well up her courage before dropping down. It wasn't that far, but still she gave an oof as she landed, and she brought herself down to where her palm pressed on the dusty rock.
The world opened before her. And with it, the Pokemon revealed themselves in the open sun.

A Kecleon basked in the Sun nearby, the color of the tan rocks. Ramona frowned. Surely there were better Pokemon around...

A Sentret climbed a rock, its "wings" spread, and glid towards another with the grace of a loose dandelion seed. It was an adorable sight, and Ramona thought to catch it, but there were plenty teeming around the open canyon. She moved forward, searching for those Pokemon she had yet to spot...

A Bouffalant grazed nearby, yet to capture her eye. She hurried past. Its horns glinted in the sun in a way that rather intimidated her. She wasn't willing to be gored.

She spotted a Phanpy that caught her eye. She was willing to catch it, but its mother grazed nearby; a pang of sympathy imbued her. It was too young, too sheltered. She decided to leave it be.

Ramona spotted a Mienfoo chopping at a rock, almost as if to practice martial arts. It was a Unova native Pokemon, one she often saw in the open skies of her home region. Her heart kindled. She threw out her Solosis with a determination in her mind.
"Psyshock!" The Mienfoo turned in time to see the blast approaching it. After it hit and the small cloud of dust disappeared, Ramona threw her Pokeball.

The ball wiggled a few times, but popped open before the capture was complete. The Mienfoo looked either way, and ran for an escape.

It was gone. Ramona tried to chase after it but stumbled. It was too fast to pursue.
The girl groaned. Part of her wanted to give up, to disappear into her disappointment, but she pushed her bad thoughts aside. Jello blinked expressionlessly before gravitating to and resting on her head. At least she had some cool shade now. She turned back to the open frontier, in search of a new Pokemon.

Another Kecleon. She already expressed her disinterest.

A Darumaka hopped by. As a Unovan, she always heard the tales of ancient nobles using their poop as pocket warmers. She had never looked at them the same way since. No thank you.

After some searching, she found it, the little Mienfoo she had encountered! She wasn't sure if this was the one, but she was determined to believe so. Before even sending Jello, who was comfortable on her head, she chucked a Pokeball at the little Pokemon.
