Of course! The more Sinnoh cuties, the better! Lucas will be reserved for you until 10/14!

“Long ago, when Sinnoh had just been made, Pokémon and humans led separate lives. That is not to say they did not help each other. No, indeed they did. They supplied each other with goods, and supported each other. A Pokémon proposed to the others to always be ready to help humans. It asked that Pokémon be ready to appear before humans always. Thus, to this day, Pokémon appear to us if we venture into tall grass.”

Smiling down at the old pages, Jun carefully ran his fingertips over the ancient words; his usually busy mind filled only with thoughts of the primeval world and the creation of Sinnoh. The Canalave Library was one of the only places in his beloved home region where the blonde could truly put his mind at ease. The smell of the books, and the hushed tones in the building made him easily forget that, in reality, he was a headstrong, hasty young boy who probably wouldn't give dusty old books a second glance. Although, deep down, the blonde loved the books; he adored the creation myths, and the old stories; the fairy-tales and the scriptures, he loved every single book in the library, and could proudly say he'd flicked through all of them at least once!

Well, all except for. . .

He shot a sideways glance towards one of the oldest books on the library shelves. It's covers were tattered and dusty, and it was said most of the words were so faded, it was near impossible to read the damn thing anymore. Jun had attempted to read it once, but, without really understanding why, he'd simply put it back on the shelf. He distinctly remembered feeling rather rotten for a few days after it, and as such, had refused to touch the old book again.

"I guess I like a lot of steel types, but I really like Pokemon with high attack. Fitting for my personality, isn’t it?" His voice had been void of sarcasm. "When I was little though, I loved the Pokemon Litwick. It was cute, and I liked reading about it."
