((Even if there's nobody here to RP with Dalene right now, she'll eventually move into a place where there are as she makes her way back towards Sandgem to obtain a Pok?dex.))
The rustle of taffeta against itself mingled with the crunch of black boots on the road as Dalene Crelia walked along the path, her hometown of Pastoria at her back. Starheart plodded along at her side, sniffing the ground excitedly.
After they had traveled for awhile (Pastoria was out of sight), Dalene stopped. "Wait, Starheart," she said. "I need to rest..." Her feet hurt from walking already. Somewhere in the back of her mind, she had expected this, but...
Starheart obeyed readily enough, settling down beside her as she carefully sat down, trying to keep her dress as clean as possible. It billowed out around her as she scratched behind Starheart's ear. The Electrike grabbed a nearby twig and began chewing on it, releasing excess electricity harmlessly into the wood.

Wait, are you saying that Dalene isn't there right now, but she will be eventually? If so, you don't really (and shouldn't really, because she hasn't reached it yet) need to "reserve" a thread for when you will be passing through there.

((No, I mean that, even though there's nobody else in Route 212 right now, and assuming nobody jumps in here (I'll give it a little longer), eventually Dalene will move into a place where there are people. She'd prolly meet up with the gang heading into Jubilife. But I'll actually RP her making her way there, 'cause there are Pok?mon I want to fight and catch. She's gotta train her Electrike, after all. Sorry for the confusion.))

((I think an "Entering this location from another location post" is fine as long as it at least ends in the current location, but make sure there aren't so many posts in the other location that it warrants its own thread.))

((Hang on, I thought each route was to have its own thread anyway? I'm confused...))

((Yes, each route has its own thread. I'm just saying that activities that aren't on Route 212 don't belong in the Route 212 thread unless you're entering Route 212 from another location and you're not doing so much stuff in said location that the title "Route 212" no longer applies. For example, if all this OOC stuff keeps up, this'll be more of an OOC thread than a story thread.))

((Oh. Dalene's on Route 212, definitely. Sorry for the confusion.))
With a sigh, Dalane stood up. There were wood chips all around Starheart now.
"That's cute," she remarked. Starheart gave a happy grin and bounded on ahead.
Gathering up her skirt in one hand so she wouldn't trip over it, she continued on, towards the next town.
---Sometime Later---
Her feet ached. Her stomach growled. She was all sweaty.
This wasn't the quest she'd had in mind.
Hearthome was close, but... But nothing had happened. She hadn't encountered anything. She'd fought a few Pok?mon, but...
She sighed, but fought the tears that came to her eyes. The quest would get better. She was sure of it.

((Sorry. I wasn't sure what the character limit was, so I just figured I'd play it safe. I'll edit it into one.))

((*sigh* And time to retire this character, already. She was going nowhere.))
It wasn't worth it. It just wasn't worth it. Hearthome was in sight now, but she wanted nothing more than to lie down and sleep for...maybe a few weeks. The "glorious quest" wasn't worth it. With a sigh and a heavy heart, Dalene scooped up Starheart in the crook of her arm, and started back towards home. At least he'd make a good pet...
