Approach, leave a safe distance, dial down the Pressure, adopt relaxed posture, tilt head forward curiously. A recipe for initiating friendly contact.]
Lucario is sensitive to the auras of others, though. He doesn't really have to concentrate to realize that this is, in fact, a Pokemon. A new breed? It wouldn't surprise him. He'd been sealed away for so long...
His tense posture relaxes, and his head tilts slightly to the side with some confusion. After a moment:]
You are a Pokemon as well? [Just making sure. There's no telling what happened to his powers after so long.]
[Hell if this kid knows, he was just in a dark place for a little while before suddenly showing up in daylight and snow.
Which... he's never seen before. And it's kind of terrifying because he feels like that scary man might come back if he doesn't sit in that dark place again.
So, he clenches his teeth and takes in a hiccuping breath as he feels tears sting at his eyes. It's been a very scary and frustrating first hour of his life, yes it has.]
Okay so it's not quite so bad as the ghosts and the glowing eyes and the statues that would suddenly move, but THIS IS SCARY.
As such, he goes from sitting to falling to his side, letting out small whimpers while he keeps his arms over his head. If he keeps his eyes shut like this, he'll be back in that place and there won't be anything coming towards him like this, just terrors in the distance...]
[ Rummaging in her bag -- where is it? She blinks as she takes out a potion bottle, looks at it confusedly, sticks it back in her bag and continues searching. ]
...Ah-ha!
[ What she does take out is a pokedex, which beeps once when it's out of her bag. Lyra beams, satisfied. Togetic, behind her, chirps gratefully too. ]
Mewtwo steps forward and reaches out towards the Pokedex, tilting it towards him with one finger and looking over it before letting go and stepping back.]
[ She jumps, wide-eyed, when words enter her head without sound. It takes her a few second to realise who it was who was asking. In wonderment, she looks on at Mewtwo as she thinks.
'Pokedex Holder'... what an odd term to use! But, she supposes she is one -- thanks to both Professor Oak and Professor Elm. ]
Yep! I got mine from Professor Oak.
[ And what a long time ago that was! That and she's travelled so far and met so much since then. Lyra's face is beaming where she stands from the bursting happiness in her heart and she briefly recalls her entire journey thus far. ]
[The shadow shifts from being prodded. It didn't hurt or anything, Darkrai just didn't like being poked like that. Moving further into the tree's shadow he slowly materializes from the ground, staring at Mewtwo. Only the top half of his body was materialized though.]
[Mewtwo vanishes the spoon, relaxing a bit but not entirely - he still remembers this Pokemon, a split-second shadow against a blinding flash of light, and it's a very unfriendly memory. And somehow, this kind of Pokemon was able to turn Red and his allies into *stone*...]
Alinivar is just... walking along awkwardly on his mass of tentacles, though the feeling of something-like-PSI from nearby makes him stop, swivelling his eyestalks around curiously.
And then a cat-like form...]
... Niiue?
[He really really hopes that is not Giegue. Please, please, please do not be Giegue.]
[Mewtwo stops when he realizes that something is talking to him, and straightens up as he turns around - then leans forward again, peering curiously at the tentacle creature.
The question just sounded like..a sound to him - he's not aware that Alinivar is asking his name.
He murmurs inquisitively - "can I help you with something?" is the sense of it.]

I am.

-wait that shade of hair...
That. Looks a lot like Luke. A *little* Luke.

Mewtwo steps forward and sits down slowly, hunching forward so that he's not towering over the kid. What else can he do to not seem so frightening...
....
("really nonthreatening")
worth a shot]
Mm..yaaauuu...
[it hurts his throat and his dignity but at least it doesn't sound monstrous]
no subject
...er, that is if statues had feelings.
Which this one doesn't.
Being a statue, and all.]
no subject
...Huh. Moving on!]
no subject
Of course, a bit further on, you might note that the statue has moved again. Or maybe there's two of them! This one much closer.]
no subject
[ Have a female trainer -- why, yes, that seems to be a Togetic following her -- in your face, looking up with awed eyes. ]
You're--!
no subject
Mewtwo stands up straight and looks down his nose at Lyra, nodding with an affirmative huff. Yup, Legendary Pokemon, that's me.]

no subject
He's hiding, in Mewtwo's shadow for the time being, because he's not sure what to make of this and...well Mewtwo gives him this powerful vibe. ]
no subject
Something...powerful. And familiar in a not good way.
Tensing and...taking out the psyspoon, as a precaution....]

Mewtwo stares at that traveling shadow for a moment before creeping closer and...carefully, gently prodding the tree's shadow with his spoon.]

Mewtwo jumps back, holding the spoon up in front of him. He expects to see Sird somewhere nearby, and glances quickly back and forth.]
Who are you?
[Even if it's under Sird's control, if he can just communicate with it...]
no subject
Who? ...Darkrai. [He eyes Mewtwo most peculiarly] Who?
no subject
Unless...Sird isn't here. And this Darkrai isn't the one that would remember attacking the Holders.]
I am Mewtwo. A Pokemon, like you.
no subject
Where?

[Mewtwo vanishes the spoon, relaxing a bit but not entirely - he still remembers this Pokemon, a split-second shadow against a blinding flash of light, and it's a very unfriendly memory. And somehow, this kind of Pokemon was able to turn Red and his allies into *stone*...]

Help a fellow pokemon out? He's kind of stuck on land and he's drying out quickly.
He won't bite. Promise. Even if those teeth look really sharp.]
no subject
um. just gonna look a little confused over here while I bubble-float you to the fountain.

once he hits the water he'll wallow around a bit before raising his head up in another toothy.... smile. Possibly.
Thank you, friend.]
