Dan sat in a chair in his flat, lights dimmed to only a soft glow over the chair, the rest of the flat cloaked in darkness. He seemed incredibly serious as he looked to the three new recruits, speaking softly
"I am astounded by the talent I have amassed before me today. Forgive me for calling upon you all so urgently, but there was a matter that needed to be attended to immediatly. You see..."
The lights suddenly turned on to reveal that Dan's usually sparce flat had been decorated with incredibly festive arrangements, including a large cake and even preasents. The trainer's face lit up as he opened all six of his Pokeballs for once, amassing his entire team as he exclaimed
"I had all these party favors and no one to share them with! Then I found you three and figured the timing was perfect! Now then, let's rejoice our new partnership with cake and punch and the giving of gifts!"

Jessi had been terrified at first, fidgeting more than her usual, but after the lights turned on, she blinked, slightly confused. Well, this was... odd, to say the least. She had the feeling that this was definitely going to be an interesting team. She regained her bearings a little when Sylvania, her Purrloin, nuzzled her hand slightly.
"Uhm... o-okay. Well, uh. I'd feel bad having fun if the rest of my pokemon weren't out here to share it with." she mumbled awkwardly. She took his lead, releasing her other two pokemon, an Alakazam and another oddly-colored pokemon, a clamperl. They both seemed slightly surprised, as well, but quickly recovered.

Chaos was taken off guard when the lights came on, revealing everything in the room. From the decortions to the presents and everything between made Chaos a little uncomfortable, since he never been to a party since his tenth birthday party he had before going on his journey.
Chaos knew that this would be a good time for his pokemon to meet the other pokemon but Darkfang and Sneasel aren`t used to this kind of thing and could cause a fight. But he knew that they wouldn`t do anything out of line unless allowed. So Chaos grabbed the poke balls off his waist, threw them up and revealing the Luxray, Sneasel, and Sableye.
Darkfang and Sneasel immediately thought that they was fighting all the pokemon in the room. But before they charged, Chaos stopped them by holding out his hand, halting their action. "We`re not here to pick a fight. Only to relax, have fun, and meet our new team members. Understand?" Darkfang gave a unhappy look but obeyed. Sneasel obeyed and waited around.

(Uh... I'm not to sure if Marche edited the post from the Tryouts but Dan chose Chaos, Jessi and Worth as part of the team.
Unless your character is sneaking around and spying on what Dan and the new members of Super Driver is doing, then I don't think your character is allowed. Not trying to be mean or anything)

Worth needed to blink a few times in surprise. "A.... party?" she asked to herself. Were Team Rocket members allowed to throw festive parties on base? Apparently so, she surmised. Glancing at what the others were doing, she reached for her three pokeballs and released her team.
The three Pokemon looked around a moment in surprise. Pip (Golbat) quickly landed and folded its large wings before looking to Worth in question. Jit (Pidgeotto) ducked its head at so many strangers about, and nestled closer between her leg and its teammate once it landed. Worth gave them both a smile and motioned across the room. "Well? Go meet your new allies."
Before she'd even finished speaking, the Raticate was out of sight, exploring and sniffing at the new Pokemon and humans without concern. It paused when it came to the glaring Luxray, staring at it, deciding whether to go near the Intimidating Pokemon.
((whoo~ late but I am here finally o/))

Darkfang flicked its ears as he saw the Raticate looking at him. He made eye contact with the Raticate, staring down the Raticate before moving its head back, growling in a low tone. "Luxray lux..." ("Not worth my time")
Sableye happened to see this and decided walked over to Darkfang. "Sableye sable." (Hey, Master wants us to meet our new allies, so you might as well start making friends.) Sableye said as he looked at the Raticate. Darkfang sighed at the remark Sableye made. "Lux..." ("Fine... but just because Master wants us to.")
(Hey, I hope you all don't mind me translating my pokemon. I'll delete this post if its not okay.)

(It's not a big deal, you can go right ahead)
Dan gave a smile, but it was obvious that the others thought that the scenario was a little odd. Probably because that as opposed to the usual vision of the rough and tumble Team Rocket, they were throwing a rather childish party. Oh well, atleast there were no party hats. The Pokemon mixed and mingled, though Paz floated behind Dan for most of the evening, and it was obvious that the trainer was a bit uneasy about it being out. Atleast more than the actual Pokemon was, who seemed to be enjoying itself
"Well, now that we have begun mingling, I'd like to talk to you all a bit more about what we actually will be doing. I'm sure you all know of the Rocket Trio of Jesse, James, and Meowth. Many in our organization laugh at them or considered their actions a mark against our organization, but I think they could be an inspiration. Their unorthadox tactics has yielded results in situations, and I believe with some more fine-tuned strategy and the right minds, we could do more than anyone will give us credit for"
"The reason I decided to take you three instead of the other two was because you don't have strength to hide behind. I want to watch you three grow, to learn to fight on wit and not brute power. Trainers these days seem to think that Attack is the only Tactic. I want to show them wrong. Are you all willing to share in my vision? If you aren't, you can still have some cake before you go"

Jessi seemed a little nervous at the mention of Jessie, who most people had the tendency to pick on her for. After all.. their names were very, very similar. She fiddled with her glasses for a moment, removing them to clean them. Pearl and Xarius, her shiny Clamperl and Alakazam, were already off and mingling, but Sylvania seemed content to remain by her trainer.
"I guess.. that makes sense. I mean, uh.. they wouldn't really expect us to be that good, right? But... we can show them.. ....right?" she murmured, still fidgeting a little. Yes, she is one nervous girl, I'll tell you that right now.

Chaos laughed at the mention of the Rocket Trio. It was common to laugh at every time the group was mentioned. "It would be very interesting be part of a team thats a lot better than those three losers. But..."
Chaos knew that the one thing he wanted was power and lots of it. He could still help with coming up with plans and other things but his hunger for power could get in the teams way and cause problems in the future.
"I`m afraid that I fall into that category that thinks attacking is the only way to go. Sure, I could help out a different way and try to be better, but I leave that for you all to decide for yourselves." Chaos then took a sip of the punch and a bite of the cake that he had.
Hearing what Chaos said, Sableye, Darkfang and Sneasel stop what they was doing and listened for an answer from the other three humans.

Jessi paused, frowning slightly when she heard what Chaos said. "The trio weren't really losers... they just had horrible luck. But they were persistent, they were devoted to accomplishing their task... They weren't powerful, but they had spirit.. that has to count for something, right?" she murmured, somewhat strongly expressing her opinion. She seemed to get even more fidgety when she expressed an opinion that could be offensive to someone else... but then, what didn't make her nervous? Lul.
(Jessi's new nickname is Twitchy. xD)

Dan put his hands in his pockets and leaned back against Salamance, acting pretty chill as he added to Chaos' statement
"Oh, we do need strength, and I can assure you that what you learn with me and the others will make you strong. It'll also make you fearless and it'll make you cunning. Still, this isn't going to be for everyone, and I hold no grudges against you if you don't want to be a part of this. As are all decisions in life, it is up to you"

Chaos turned to Jessi. "Hm... I guess your right. Recently I heard that they have gotten alot more serious and they haven`t been "blasted off" at all. So I guess I have no right to laugh at them."
Chaos then turned to Dan, grining as he spoke. "I guess your right. I didn`t know if you wanted a guy who only focused in attacking relentlessly. And who said I was a coward? I`m already fearless. I could anger the boss and wouldn`t care what happened to me." Chaos laughed as he mentioned that last part then continued. "You all are looking at someone who took on the elite four in almost every region and won. Ain`t that right everyone?!"
Sableye, Darkfang and Sneasel let out a proud cry then resumed what they was doing

Worth seemed content to let the other three talk, silently eating a slice of cake and standing off to the side. She'd never been much of a "people person", and the higher ranks still made her a bit nervous, despite Dan acting surprisingly nice for a Rocket so far. Besides that, there was an incredibly cute, pink Pokemon trying to stay out of sight near Worth's new team leader. She couldn't put her finger on it, but it looked... special, and definitely rare. (At least she'd never seen it before; but then again, she'd never seen that blue cat one before tonight, either...) She leaned this way and that, attempting to get a better look at it without drawing attention to herself.
She snapped to attention at the announcement from Chaos, and frowned at him in confusion. "...If you're so strong, why are you only a Scout?" She clapped a hand over her mouth as soon as she said it, expecting a rebuttal for such a question.

Chaos frowned at the question Worth had said. He turned around to answer her question. "Well... lately, I haven`t been able to find anything to turn into the boss even any money. I did find and brought them but it turns out that I want to keep them and raise them. As for money, I hardly have any to give and even if I could, I`m saving it."
Chaos stops for a second and pulls out a flyer with a thunder bolt on it and shows it to Dan, Jessi and finally Worth. "You see, I decided to do a service for people by hunting a pokemon for them and make some money, but so far, no one has answered to it while I watch others take possible customers away from me." He took out his PokeNav and checked if anyone called him, but no one had called him and he let out a sigh of dissapointment.

Dan watched and couldn't help but give a little smile. It wasn't a mocking smile, but a knowing smile. One of compassion, not one of malice. He took the flier and looked it over before adding
"I think we may be able to do business. If you have a problem, its a problem of the team, and I think we should all do what we can to resolve it"
Dan got himself a little bit of punch and asked Chaos
"If I told you that by staying, I could see to it that you, and the others, of course, would become stronger than the others, would you stay?"

Jessi was quiet, listening in to everything. She'd already spoken up a few times, and it had helped her to calm down a little. She was naturally a quiet person, so she didn't say anything, just enjoying the punch, for now. Besides, her pokemon seemed to be enjoying themselves, so that was good.

Chaos couldn't keep from smiling at Dan's offer. Since joining Team Rocket, Chaos saw no one that would be kind enough to help out others with their problems, but Dan offered to help him and the other two get stronger. Thinking on this, Chaos remembers all the times during his adventures when Serena would help him with almost anything. 'I wonder how Serena is doing... I hope that shes safe.' Chaos thought to himself before he answered to Dan's question.
"If I stay, I'll become stronger. not from the training that your give us or helping us rank up, but I can overcome my little habit of trying to do everything by myself. So yes, I'll stay." Chaos then takes a bite of the cake and adds. "Also the cake is way too good, It even rivals my friend Serena's recipe. Who made this cake anyway?"

Dan's Electabuzz raised his hand before getting hit in the back of the head by Scizor. Dan smiled and pointed towards his Dusclops, which seemed to stare into the soul of anyone who happened to be looking at the time. With that one, single eye of its.
"Honestly, Noir did the most work on it. I helped. He was more of the brains of the operation than I"
Dan took a piece of cake for himself as he munched, looking to the small pile of gifts nearby. He had a little something for everyone, prepared from a bunch of things he'd purchased in preperation for the party. He had each marked, ready for hand-out. Some of the things were uniform, but others were actually specificly for each of them, in a roundabout sort of fashion
"When we're all done eating, I will give each of you your gifts"

At the mention of gifts, Jessi nearly choked on her punch. After a moment, she finally regained her breath and ability to speak, blinking rapidly. "G-gifts? But... I never brought anything..! Usually I have something to give back, but I.. oh goodness, how could I.." she stuttered, entering something akin to a rambling rant that eventually died off in a mumble. When she was done, she just stood quietly, blushing in embarrassment; she'd made a fool of herself. Again.
