[Best Veteran March/May 2011] A new professor in town - Kanto Adventure PG13

Chapter 5 coninued

The PokeBall had moved from side to side, making rattling sounds. "Come on! Let it be my first successful capture! Please!" Sean told himself quietly. The PokeBall had stopped moving, and flased red once, and then there were no more movements. He had caught it. "Woo!! My first caught Pokemon! Yeah!" Sean jumped around in happiness, forgetting that he was still in tall grass, and Growlithe was tired still. "Growlithe! I owe it all to you! If it weren't for you then I never would have got this right!" Sean told Growlithe. Growlithe happily barked, trying to keep standing up. "Uh oh. You look real tired. Let's get you back in your PokeBall." Sean had withdrew Growlithe into the PokeBall and took another step by step walk through the grass. When he got through the grass, the forest enterance was real close up. Sean had looked at how dark it was in there, and all the shadows and noises comeing from the trees rustling against each other.
He decided to be brave. "I don't care if any bugs are in there or not! I must make it to the other side! I have pokemon so there." he had to tell himself over and over. So then he took slow strides into the dark forest of Viridian.

The ball shoke three times before stopping and dined. "Yey! We did it Pikachu!" Kairi cheered doing a little dance with Pikachu. Just then she remembered something,"Oh no! I forgot about my Spearow!"

Spearow was still laiding on the ground moaning in pain. Kairi had forgotten to return it to it's Pokeball. Kairi ran over, and picked up Nidoran♀'s ball. Then she ran over to Spearow,"I'm so sorry Spearow," she told it. She gave it a potion, then it got back up. Kairi then sit out lunch again, hoping that another Pokemon wouldn't come up and try to take it. She called out her new Nidoran♀, and gave it and her other two Pokemon there lunch.

Then she fixxed herself, her food and sit down and ate.

***

When her Pokemon were done eating, she called them back into there Pokeballs, all expect Pikachu. Pikachu was pretty tried so she gave it a potion and let it ride in her backpack to rest. Kairi then walked on.

She saw a big forest ahead,'Viridan Forest.'

"That place must be full of a lot of strong Pokemon, bet I'll get some good training done in there," Kairi said as she started to go thought.
 
OOC: WARNING: dialogue heavy post ahead!

Warren yelled out in shock as a large bolt of electricity struck the ground in front of him. He looked at 'Bite'. Surely it wouldn't attack its own parent. Then he noticed something. 'Bite' was looking very odd. Its teeth were clenched and it was growling softly. Why was it so angry? Without waiting for an order, Guy's Rattata launched another Thunder, but aimed for Rattata, not Warren. Not even trying to dodge, she stood there as the electricity blasted into her body. Warren gasped. That had got to hurt. But why would it attack her? Guy answered his unasked question.
"You see," he drawled patronisingly, "Pokemon don't really like being abandoned by their parents. It does some serious psychological damage. Some get depressed, some become reclusive and some," he gestured towards 'Bite', "get angry. They search for revenge against those who abandoned them and welcome any who help them to achieve that goal." Warren spat on Guy's shoes.
"You're the one who split them up! You captured the child!" Guy ignored him.
"I don't know why your Rattata doesn't fight back, though. I guess it has a bit of a guilty conscience?" Warren returned Rattata quickly, another Thunder hitting the place where she had stood almost immediately.
"This is your fault!" he spat, "And I don't care what it takes, you are not going to keep these two separated!" Guy chuckled quietly.
"There's nothing you can do. Bite is legally mine and you can't take him." Warren smiled.
"I don't give an Aipom's butt what is legal. All I care about is rescuing that creature and giving you a slap in the face." Guy's face dropped a little, but he just smirked again.
"Well you'd have to get through Beedrill first and he could destroy you all on his own. Face it, you don't have a chance. Give up and go home." Warren just shoved his face right up next to Guy's, laughing as he flinched.
"Well I never give up, Guy. Never have, never will. So don't expect me to stop just for you." He turned around, accidentally stepping on Guy's foot as he stalked off.
"Come on, Poliwag," he muttered to the tadpole Pokemon, "We may be outclassed in strength, but I bet we can outsmart that idiot." More loudly, he shouted back to the arrogant twerp, "We'll be back, Guy. And we will beat you!"
"Bring it on," Guy shouted back in reply, "I'll be waiting!"
 
@Alipeewee & Konekodemon - thanks for posting guys... not much i can say really... anyway as promised:

Viridian Forest

Number of Posts: 2-4

Description: lies between Viridian City and Pewter City. The trees in the forest are so thick that little light gets in. It is full of Bug- and Flying-type Pokémon. A natural maze, many people become lost inside.
Note - Both the north and south entrances of Viridian Forest open to Route 2.

What can you do in a Route?

Generally the main two things you can do on a route are capturing pokémon and battling trainers. You can do many other things, you know free will and all that... Anyways, you cannot meet any of the other RPers, and everyone have fun.

Note - the title specifying the rarity of a pokémon refers to how hard a pokémon is to catch. i.e. a much better post is required to catch an uncommon pokémon than to catch a common pokémon.
How I level the pokémon you're catching will depend on how good your post is. When you're trying to catch a pokémon, you cannot decide if you catch it. When trying to catch a pokémon you have to finish your post off when you throw the pokéball and wait for my response telling you if the capture was successful or not. You cannot continue until you know that it was caught. In battles, I will level up your pokémon depending on the quality of your battle post.
note - Pikachu will need a very good post to catch, i am doing this to stop everyone going for one... that would be a bit boring...
 
Stupid twerp...I'll show him...there must be some way i can beat him...maybe another bug or poisn type would be a good counter to Beedrill's attacks...now there's an idea...
Slowing down to a halt, Warren released Poliwag and Rattata, the wandered over to a nearby tree, looking up. Just as he had suspected, there were several bug pokemon snoozing on the branches. He took a couple of steps back, then ran forwards and kicked the tree as hard as he could. It bent hugely and a deluge of caterpillar shaped pokemon fell onto the ground, some orange and some green. Upon seeing Warren, most of them fled at a surprisingly high speed, considering that their feet were the size of pin heads. One, however, stayed. Normally, Warren would have been impressed by its bravery, but this particular pokemon, one of the brown ones, was fast asleep. Warren bent down to examine it. It had two stingers - one on its head and one on its tail - that were glistening with poison. Warren grinned - any pokemon that could poison its opponenet had to be good. Turning around, he stood back a little, then, after a short consideration, sent forwards Poliwag. Rattata probably needed a bit more rest after its encounter with Bite.
"Right, Poliwag, get up close, then wake up that lazy Weedle with your Bubble!" Poliwag silently leapt forwards, landing lightly in front of the opponent and giving a powerful Bubble attack. Squealing in pain and very much awake, the Weedle rolled backwards, then fired a thin stream of silk from its hidden mouth. The String shot shot wrapped itself around Poliwag's feet and Weedle pulled, sending Poliwag flying into the air. As it began to fall, the larva Pokemon leapt into the air, ramming Poliwag hard in the head with its stinger. Poliwag was struggling to keep going, but it climbed to its feet defiantly. Weedle flew at it again with another Poison Sting, but this time, Poliwag launched another Bubble which sent the bug pokemon flying backwards. As it lay there in a daze, Warren detatched a Pokeball from his belt and threw it with all his might. It struck Weedle on the back, then burst open, sucking it inside in a flash of red light. Warren crossed his fingers as his Pokeball began to shake wildly...
 
Kairi entered the forest. "Wow! It's so beatiful in here." Kairi saw some berry trees,"I think I'll use these to make some Pokeblock and Poffins after I buy a case for making them," Kairi started picking berries off the tree and putting them in her bag.

Pikachu was still sleeping in her bag. She was very careful not to set the berries on top of Pikachu. But the smell of the berries woke it up anyway. Kairi was trying some out too. She picked up a big red berry,"This looks testy," she grinned. As since Pikachu was from the Viridan Forest, and knew everything about berries it tried to warn her,"Pika pika!" Pikachu warned shaking it's head no.

"It's alright Pikachu, it's just a harmless berry. I bet it's strawberry," Kairi took a big bite then screamed,"Ahhhhhh! Hot! Hot! Hot!" She screamed running to the river and drinking some water. Her lips were all clurped up. She looked funny. Pikachu tried not to laugh but couldn't help it. It burst out laughing.

"Hey! It not funni ya no," Kairi said, her voice sounding all weird like from the shape her lip was in.

Pikachu thought it was kinda funny, his owner had eaten a Tamato Berry. Pikachu picked off a blue looking berry and told her to eat it. It was a Oran Berry,"Pikapi."

"Oh, Thank," Kairi said still not talking right as she took the Oran Berry and ate it. It cured her,"Ahhhh, that's much better. Thanks Pikachu."

There was a male Caterpie laughing nearby. It thought this human was so funny,"Cater, pie pie."

Kairi turned around and saw it,"Hey! That's not funny! Quit it!" Kairi told it. Caterpie shot String Shot into Kairi's face then he just laughed somemore.

"You won't be laughing for long," Kairi said pulling out a Pokeball,"Ok, I know you can win a fight this time. Go Spearow!" Spearow popped out of it's ball, and faced off against the Caterpie. He wasn't laughing anymore. "Ok, Spearow, Peck attack!" Kairi called.

Caterpie started crawling away, but against a Spearow he wasn't very fast. Spearow caught up to it. Caterpie used String Shot and then tackled it. Spearow dodged both attacks,"Ok, great job Spearow! Now finish it off!" Kairi called.

Spearow flew stright at Caterpie and tackled him into a tree. Caterpie fainted,"Ok," Kairi said taking out a Pokeball,"Pokeball go!" Caterpie got sucked up inside the ball. Spearow came back to Kairi and just floated in the air in front of her as she watched the Pokeball shake like mad.

Name: Rini Sakai
Nickname: Rii
Gender: Female
Apperance: I had a really cute pic I was gonna post but I keep getting a message of you must have made 15 or more posts to post url's. Blah, blah, blah. lol I'm not that great at describing looks, but on photobucket you just type in cute anime girl and look on the first page for the girl with brown hair in two ponytails held up by yellow pony tail holders.
Personality: A little sad at times, but covers that up by being over cheerful, she loves to help people, though she gets easily annoyed when things don't turn out as planned, loyal to a fault, and shy.
History: Her mother became ill a few years prior to her tenth birthday. Though her mother tried to play the illness off, over the next few years she became bedridden and had no one to reley on save her husband and daughter. As her father had to work overtime to cover the bills Rini chose to forgo her own pokemon journey to stay with her mother, who passed away several months before Rini's twelth birthday.
Starter pokemon: Oddish please ^__^
RP Sample: Rini stared up at the late night sky as she always did from the roof of the modest home she now only shared with her father. Now that she was alone she could freely let her tears fall. The full moon above shone down on the young girl as if to offer it's comfort. "Mother, why did you have to die? Why did you leave me?" She pulled a star shaped pendent from inside her shirt and gazed deeply at it, as she used her other hand to rub furiously at her eyes. Her mother's last with came to her then. She wanted her daughter to see the world. A journey she had been denied herself in youth. "I won't forget." she suddenly stood, and almost lost her balance. "I'll become a pokemon trainer and see the world. I promise."
 
Location: Route 1

"I don't know about you, Vulpix, but this whole journeying is a lot more tiring than I thought it would be. I need a break," Laura moaned as she sat down in the shade of a large tree. Leaning against its trunk, she pulled off her backpack and started digging through its contents. "I don't think I've ever walked so much in my life. Are you hungry? I've got some sandwiches in here somewhere... At the mention of food, Vulpix's eyes lit up, looking over at Laura with great interest. "I've got your full attention now, don't I?" Laura chuckled as she tossed a sandwich to the hungry Pokemon, who quickly gobbled it up.

"Vulpix vul!" Licking her lips, Vulpix looked for more but stopped, her ears twitching.

"What's the matter, Vulpix?" asked Laura, who was halfway through a sandwich herself. In response, Vulpix ran over to a patch of tall grass and after rewrapping and stuffing the sandwich back in her backpack, Laura followed. "What is...?" she began to ask again, but the grass began to rustle, cutting her off. A moment later, a purple, mouse-like Pokemon with a nasty set of teeth and red eyes scurried out. "A Rattata? I at least know what those are. You can find those pests everywhere. Let's battle it, Vulpix! Use Ember!"

Squealing, the Rattata took on the full brunt of the attack and shook it off, though its fur was badly singed. "Finish it off with another Ember!" Vulpix let loose another barrage of fireballs, but when the smoke cleared, the rodent was nowhere to be seen. "Vul?" Turning her head from side to side, the fire Pokemon frantically tried to spot its opponent, but it was nowhere to be seen. Suddenly, faster than the eye could follow, Rattata leapt out of a bush and rammed its body into Vulpix, a trail of white following it.

"Vul!" Vulpix cried as she hit the ground but a second later she was on her feet again, ready for Round 2. Rattata charged at her again with Quick Attack, but this time she dived to the side, and she only got her shoulder clipped. "Good job, Vulpix! Now use Ember before it can attack again!" Ember slammed Rattata in the back and it collapsed. "Great! Uh... What's wrong now?" Pawing at Laura's leg and pulling on her sleeve, Vulpix clearly wanted something. "You want another sandwich?" she inquired but the Pokemon shook its head vigorously. "OH, those pokeballs! I could catch that Rattata!" She whipped her bag off her back, but before she could even unzip it, she noticed that the Rattata was gone. Her face turning red with embarrassment, Laura sighed and muttered, "Well, I'm never going to let that happen again. Oh, well.... at least it was a Rattata and not some really rare Pokemon. They practically grow on trees around here. Here, Vulpix. You deserve a good rest."

After putting Vulpix in her pokeball, Laura sighed again in disappointment and continued on her way.

Then the ball dined,"Yey! We did it!" She picked up the ball,"Look Pikachu we caught..." Pikachu wasn't there,"Pikachu?"

Kairi looked around, her Pikachu was gone,"Pikachu! Where are you!" Kairi started getting kinda worried,"Spearow fly up above the trees see if you can spot Pikachu."

Spearow nobbed and flew up above the trees looking for Pikachu.

***

Meanwhile, Pikachu had gotten sararated from Kairi,"Pikapi!" He kept on calling out for Kairi. There was no answer,"Chaaa!" Pikachu sighed getting kinda tried. But he knew he had to find Kairi no matter what.

Pikachu continued on. Just then as it was crawling though a brush it bumped into a Growlithe. It looked up and saw that the Growlithe was with a young boy that looked to be a Pokemon trainer.
 
Chapter 6

Sean had walked into the large bunch of trees slowly. He did not want to find any Pokemon of the Bug type as he hated the way they look at him. He found a small, purple and white bottle on the floor. It was labeled, "Potion, used to heal Pokemon health when they are weak. (One time use)". Sean had then opened heis Growlithe back out, still looking weak, it still barked loyally. "Growlithe. Hold still a minute. I'm going to heal you." Sean had told Growlithe. He put the finger on the button and pressed it. The spray had clinged onto Growlithe, getting rid off all the broozed and scratches. When the spray had completely gone, Growlithe was back to full health. Growlithe made a healthy howl, as it was feeling much better, ready to start a battle.
"Wow, I really should get these more often." Sean had thought to himself.

The forest was huge, like a maze. Each patch covered with high grass, and the worst part, there was no exit in sight.
Sean just went the way he could hear less bug noises, the path to the right. The grass was not as big as the Route 2 grass, but still he could barely see much through it. The only people in the forest were catching bugs with a small net. He tried not to run into one, but Growlithe would still handle things for him if anything did happen. Once he got through the first section of grass, there was still more. And still no exit could be seen. "Aww man! I hate this place!!" Sean had shouted.
Just then, he could hear a female voice commanding Pokemon to attack. "Yay! More trainers! Maybe they will know how to leave to the other side!" he thought.
He took a look around the sections of grass in his way, until he could see the trainer. Yet he still found no pokemon, it would be easier to have a Repel if he didn't want to find any, but he forgot to check out the PokeMart. On that section, he could hear a noise, something like, "Pika! Pika-Pik!". "Huh? What's that! Not a bug is it?" he started to get scared, he just did not want to see any bugs. When the small mouse had reached up to him, it wasn't angry, adn certainly wasn't a bug. Sean whipped out the Pokedex from his pocket.
"Pikachu. The Mouse Pokemon. It has small electric sacs on both its cheeks. If threatned, it loses charges from the sacs."
Well, atleast it's not a bug type. Growlithe looked at it and didn't growl, just examined it. The female trainer, however started shouting "Pikachu! Where are you!" with a Spearow flying above Sean. The female trainer had found the Pikachu. Sean had recognised this girl. "Kairi? Is that you...?"

(TBC...)
 
Finally, after what seemed like an age, the ball stopped shaking and there was a faint 'ding' sound. Warren grinned and picked it up. His third Pokemon already - Warren was on a roll!
"Poli..." a fait squeak came from behind him. He turned around and noticed that Poliwag was looking in pretty bad shape. He had a large bruise and a small cut on its forehead, where Weedle had rammed him with his stinger. Frowning, Warren looked around, sighing with relief when he saw a tree with small blue berries hanging from it. He picked a couple then tossed them to Poliwag. He looked at them questioningly.
"They're Oran berries," Warren explained gruffly, "They'll help you with your head." Poli looked delighted and took a bite. He let out a loud
"Poliiiiii!" then resumed eating, devouring the berries in mere seconds. Warren grinned. Sure, he might be a weak fighter, but he had taken a poison sting head on and still come out the winner. He had to admit, Poliwag was tenacious. Warren released his other Pokemon and kicked the tree a bit, knocking down a few more berries.
"Dig in," he muttered sourly as he rummaged through his bag to see if there was any food for him. After a few minutes searching, he managed to dig out a small bottle of water and a very squashed sandwich. He wasn't entirely sure what was in it, but it tasted good so he wasn't complaining. As he ate, his thoughts turned to Guy and 'Bite'. He still found that name pretty funny. Whatever Guy was, he wasn't original.
"Hey, Rattata?" he called to his small purple rat.
"Ratta?" it said questioningly, looking up from its food.
"Well...your son...we'll get him back, you know?" Rattata nodded sadly. Warren gave a wry smile.
"And when we get him, I won't call him Bite, 'kay?" Rattata giggled a little, but still looked downcast. Warren got the impression that in Rattata's mind, she deserved to be punished for abandoning her child. Warren sighed. Depression could be really infectious.
 
Kairi ran up, her Spearow flying down to land on her shoulder. Pikachu saw her running up,"Pikapi! Chaaaa!" He said happily running up to it's trainer.

"Pikachu are you ok?" Kairi asked as she hugged her Pokemon,"Oh, your Sean right? Were you trying to steal my Pikachu?!"
 
"No way, Kairi!" Sean has told her. "I was just trying to get through this forest, I can't seem to find the other side." He was telling the truth. Growlithe started to look at the trainer, looking rather evil. "That'll be all Growlithe, be nice."
 
Pikachu got in front of Kairi trying to protect her,"Pika pika!" It said giving Growlithe a mean look.

"Calm down Pikachu. That whatever type of Pokemon it is won't hurt me," Kairi said. She pulled out her Pokedex,"Growlithe the puppy Pokemon. Very protective of its territory. It will bark and bite to repel intruders from its space. It is also a protective of it's trainer." The Pokedex told her,"Growlithe huh. Sounds cool."

She pulled out her PokeNAV,"I can get us out of here. My PokeNAV acts as a map."
 
"Really? Sounds great!" Sean couldn't wait to leave this place, yet he wanted to catch up with Kairi and check out her Pokemon.
"So, Kairi. How many Pokemon have you got so far? Right now, I only have 2. Growlithe is like my closest friend though, he's always friendly towards me. And I have a Nidoran Male. I wonder what the female version of it looks like..." he told her, he was curious.
 
Rini

Rini was nervious as she walked along the route that would bring her to Pallet. She'd been living in Veridian, and thanked her luck she didn't live further. Of course that hadn't stopped her father from declaring himself her escort, which she politely denied.

If denied can be summed up to, yelling her protests aloud and flinging her shoe at him when he persisted.

So now she found herself walking along the route alone, and almost wishing she had taken him up on his offer. After all she had no pokemon to ward off wild ones.

Her father owned one pokemon, more a pet then anything.

A ditto....

Talk about irony.

Rini glanced down as she felt something squish underneath her foot. It was a berry, she noted with disgust as he shoe was now coated in it's slimy juices. "This just isn't my day." she sighed.

"Rattata!" a shrill voice yelled.

"Oh, was that your breakfast perhaps?" Rini asked nerviously, as she glanced around then sighed. At least there was only one. Surely she could escape one Rattata.

"Rattata!"

"Rattata!"

"Rattata!"

Or not... three other small heads peaked up at her from the long grass. Seeams she'd interupted a family meal. "Nice Rattata. I didn't mean to interupt your breakfast." she smiled.

The four Rattata hissed at her and boldly stepped forward, making the girl back up a pace.

"Can't we talk this out like mature adults?"

"Rattata rat rattata!"

"Right... I'm not an adult and your not human. I get it, I get it." Rini held her hands up in defeat. "How about a song then?"

They charged, she ran. At least on the positive side she made it to Pallet much faster then she'd planned. Getting chased by a pack of small purple rats tends to have that effect.

"Professor Maple?" Rini asked once she'd arrived at the lab.

"What happened?" Professor Maple asked in surprise. "Did you wrestle a Primape before you left home?"

"Oddish?" the small plant peaked around the Professor's feet to regard the girl curiously. It then sweatdropped nerviously. "Oddish..."

"If you have any pokemon could I have one please?" she collapsed to the ground and breathed deeply.
