You spend lots of time at Route 404, a moderately sized pathway between your home and Hearthome City. You relax, and hang out with your Pokémon there, enjoying the atmosphere and lack of trainers. … As you lean against a tree, you see Cynthia emerge from a thicket, and walk towards you. She puts her hand against the tree your leaning on, and looks at you with a gentle smile.

“Greetings. Kinda nice out for some Pokemon training, ain’t it? Though I assume you’re a newbie from your gear.”
