A Pokémon Center, is a type of building that provides regulatory services for Pokémon Trainers. Pokémon Centers are found in most towns and cities of the Pokémon world; every major city or town holds a Pokémon Center. Some Pokémon Centers can be found outside of towns next to large forests or caves. Pokémon Centers are built where many Trainers gather and the area becomes popular. This is to accommodate those Trainers in need and serve as a resting spot. The most common service the Pokémon Center offers is healing Pokémon free of charge.

Physical Appearance: He is an older lad, of about 22 years of age. Late to begin his Pokemon journey, but he had to earn the money to do so himself. He is taller, at about 6'3" and has brown hair and green eyes. A few freckles dot his face, and he is well-toned, probably from spending the last few years chopping firewood in the winter and farming in the summer to save up money.
Skills: Right now, very few, beyond a random assortment of skills he obtained from his job. He can chop firewood, plant and harvest crops, cook semi-decently, and is fairly intelligent.
Personality: He is a compassionate, hard-working individual who appreciates that not everyone is able to go off on an adventure like he is. He is loyal to a fault, and will do anything he can to help out a friend, or anyone who has previously done right by him.

Chris waited patiently as the kind Nurse administered to his Totodile. First day a a Trainer and he had already lost a fight...to a Krabby of all things. He hoped Totodile didn't hate him for that, he had done the best he could, but he supposed they would just have to work harder at it. Eventually, the Nurse was done and she handed Totodile's Pokeball back to him with a smile and a reminder to take good care of him.
"I will do my best ma'am, thank you!"

Physical Appearance: A prodigy in the field of genetic engineering and biochemistry, Clarissa Voldt is a young woman, no older than twenty-five, with long, silky raven hair, well kept and brushed straight. She has bright, happy golden eyes with intense, inwardly curved thin eyebrows. Her face is unblemished, speaking of a life away from hard labour, but it is beautifully heart-shaped nonetheless, and graced by a pair of full pink lips. Her flesh is similarly unblemished elsewhere, and she is rather fair-skinned, having remained indoors for the greater portion of her life, experimenting and learning rather than training or playing like others. As a result, her curves are soft and supple and her body lacks much tone, but she eats well enough that she retains a pleasant figure regardless. All in all, she is the very image of a young, naive scientist, from head to toe.
Skills: ============
While Clarissa is extraordinarily intelligent and dedicated to her work, she has little physical ability as a result. She is able to fire a weapon well enough, but in close combat she fails miserably. Her intellect would allow her to be an extremely apt trainer, were that her field of interest, but as it is she only possesses a few well-trained Pokemon. Discovery and study of Pokemon, for her, is more important than training.
Personality: ============
A normally upbeat and cheerful woman, Clarissa is at the same time quite cerebral in her interactions and enthusiastic about her work. She doesn't have many hobbies outside work, although she does read romance novels regularly as a guilty pleasure. For the most part, however, when she's not working, she can be seen drinking pale coffee and reading the latest scientific journals. While she works for the widely-despised Team Rocket, she is an honest and convicted person, loyal to the Team, as she believes that their mission and their work is the most important that has ever been done in the world, laws and nations be damned.
History (Optional): ============
Clarissa grew up in a fairly average home life, with a father who worked in a Pokecenter and a farmer for a mother. All her life, her family told her that she should simply follow in the footsteps of her mother and become a farmer or a gardener. Instead, however, she left home to join a prestigious college in the Kanto region at the prodigious age of 15, becoming at that time the youngest girl to ever study the hard sciences. She excelled in school, rising to become the valedictorian despite her age.
She completely botched the graduation speech, something that she's a bit touchy about, but otherwise her school career was extremely prestigious, and since then she's worked with Team Rocket in secret on a project she considers extremely important to the future of Pokemon genetic research. She has little contact with anyone outside of Team Rocket; just as well, she's not very outgoing anyway, but she does regularly make calls to her family and maintains a close circle of friends, most of which are members of Team Rocket.
Pokemon Team: ============

Suddenly, the door slides open and a woman with long, shimmering sable hair dashes through the door cradling an injured-looking Butterfree through the door. One of its eyes is forced shut by a series of three parallel gashes across its face, and several other wounds appearing to have been made by the claws of a predator mark the bug-type, oozing with green ichor. Its wings are torn and drooping, and its one good eye appears to be drooping tiredly, despite the woman's attempts to keep the creature awake using various potions that she sprays with a shaky hand.
"Nurse! I need a nurse!" cries the woman, her white labcoat billowing behind her as she arrives at the Pokecenter, placing the injured Butterfree upon the counter. A pink-haired nurse quickly approaches and asks what's happened, and the woman explains that she found the Butterfree in this state whilst doing field research, clearly having just been attacked by a wild Pokemon. The woman is panting and her eyes glisten with moisture. It's clear she holds the Pokemon's life in high regard, despite not even knowing what's happened to it, and never having seen it before. She seems not to care that her bleached white labcoat is stained with green ichor, more focused on her injured charge than anything else.
"Please, help her!" she pleads. The nurse nods and gives a sympathetic assurance before taking the Butterfree to the Intensive Care unit. The woman in the labcoat slumps over the counter, panting heavily as sweat drips from her brow. She doesn't seem to have noticed any of the people surrounding her, or the fact that her intrusion has suddenly made her the centre of attention. That, or she simply has more important things on her mind.

He had just accepted Totodile's pokeball when the woman rushed in, and he had barely made it out of the way in time for her to reach the counter. As it was, he dropped Totodile's pokeball, and the wayward 'dile came popping out. Fortunately, he appeared to still be tired from their earlier exploits that day, and he curled up under a chair. Chris's attention, was focused on the woman and her poor Butterfree.
"You alright there ma'am? Couldn't help but overhear what happened. Always a shame when a Pokemon is hurt like that."
His words had a slight southern island accent to them, lending a hint of charm to what were already heartfelt words.

It takes a moment for Clarissa to snap out of her frantic haze, and when she does she looks about slowly to see all the eyes on her. She coughs self-consciously and straightens her back, brushing off her starched white labcoat, her cheeks tinged a light rose colour.
She almost jumps out of her skin when Chris addresses her, the unexpected southern drawl catching her off-guard as she swirls around to face him.
"Ah...yes, it is very unfortunate when Pokémon are hunted in the wild...indeed," she agrees, trying to wipe her eyes as inconspicuously as possible, which of course only makes the act all the more obvious.

Chris digs in his pocket for a moment and produces a small packet of tissues, extending them outwards to Clarissa.
"Maybe these will help, I'm Chris by the way, Chris Banning. Looks like that Butterfree might be a while, do you plan on waiting for it?"
At this point Totodile woke up from his nap, waddling up to stand next to his trainer and give a big ol' grin to Clarissa.
"And this blue fella here is Totodile." He said with a smile. He wasn't overly worried about the Butterfree, the Boon Island Nurse Joy was very skilled at her craft.

"I'm...I'm fine," responds Clarissa, refusing the tissues with a small sniffle. She wipes her eyes one more time and smiles down at the Totodile, kneeling down to place a hand upon its head. She has an aura of gentle kindness that most Pokémon can feel, though there's no telling whether this skittish creature will. Despite that, she seems unafraid of its razor sharp teeth.
"Thanks for your kindness, Chris. I'm Clarissa Voldt," she says with a faint smile.
"I'll come back for the Butterfree later. I'm a little hungry and...I dunno if it's a good idea to be here. I'm not good with stress."

Totodile rubbed his head against her hand as she lowered it to him. He wasn't much of a biter, but he did enjoy smashing his head into everything...especially tables.
He felt sorry for the poor woman and her butterfree. New to the island and that happens? Poor thing.
"Not many places to get grub around here, the nurses here at the Center are good but the cooks...not as much. Totodile and I were just about to grab some lunch anyway, why don't you join us? I make a mean ham sandwich."

Clarissa smiles faintly and nods as she gives the Totodile a quick pet, before standing up and giving a short bow.
"I...think I would like that," she says with a tiny sniffle, rubbing her eye once more before gesturing for Chris to lead the way. The sooner she gets out of the stuffy Pokémon Centre, the better...she's not trying to escape her problems with food, not at all!

Chris beams at her, and Totodile, at the mention of food, immediately goes running out of the door. Chris shakes his head at the antics of his crocodilian Pokemon.
"Hungry little shit. He's never not hungry. Anyway, it's not too far away, just set back in the woods enough to afford me some privacy."
He gently showed her the way out, indicating to the Nurse to call his house if anything changed with the Butterfree.
<Exit>
