Pokemon: Fight against Evil. [G]

"It would be good for you, even though I generally don't like you leaving. I decided maybe I should let you go off and do something on your own, it would do you better. Isn't that right?"
Lucy opened her mouth to reply to her mother, but got interrupted.
"Of course, of course! Now, I don't want you getting a dangerous Pokémon. I heard Magikarp is a splendid Pokémon, don't you think? Of course you do! I'm so excited, this will be marvelous!" Lucy's mother quickly walked down the hall and grabbed the telephone. "Yes, yes! No-- it's-- no… Let me talk! I must tell you…"
Lucy sighed and stared down at her soggy cereal. She wasn't too thrilled about getting a Pokémon and becoming a trainer. It involved work and talking to people. Lucy wasn't very committed to this. I want to find my-- THUMP! Lucy's mom walked away after dropping a heavy backpack onto the kitchen table in front of Lucy. Lucy looked at it in dismay and opened it. An escape rope, lunch, money, a book about manners... She made a face at the book, tossed it out and left the house without saying goodbye or eating her cereal. "Luuuuccccy darling I forgot to tell you--" Lucy's mother looked around the brightly lit kitchen. "Hmph. Anyway, Agnus," she continued to talk on the phone.
Lucy walked slowly along the dirt road to the Professor's lab. She pulled out her gold pocket watch, grimaced at the long hand pointing to the 9, and returned it to her pocket. She kicked a rock and watched it bounce toward the lab until it hit the door with a soft clang. Lucy opened the door and froze as she saw some other kids looking at the professor.
 
Once Professor Rowan had the attention of all three children he said "you kids where brought here for a purpose, that purpose is to travel through Sinnoh catching Pokemon and defeating gym leaders as a group. Though your main goal is you children are Sinnoh's last hope at stopping Team Lightning for good, and Marina i know you want that more than anything" he said to the three.

Once he was done speaking the two boys could instantly see Marina's bright eyes had darkened and narrowed. "I'm in" her voice was cold not light and happy like it had been minutes earlier, her voice so cold it caused Flare to look up at her confused.
 
"Me too. But professor, who and what is Team Lightning?" The name sounded a bit familiar to Brandon but he couldn't pinpoint it to anything. Suddenly, a vision flashed before his mind in a split-second and he saw what it was clearly- his mother when she was working as a scientist. Terra must have felt his apprehension and stopped licking. "Turt turt?" It seemed to ask.
 
Marina looked at Brandon keeping the same cold look to her. "Team Lightning is a group of people lead by Cyrus's Great-grandson Johnathon. His goal is the same as Cyrus's... take over the Sinnoh region...but unlike his Great-Grandfather Johnathon is willing to do anything to do...even Kill." her voice cracked when she reached the word kill and she tried not to start crying. Flare sensing her distress gently nuzzled her but that didn't help.
 
"Team Lightning is a group of people lead by Cyrus's Great-grandson Johnathon. His goal is the same as Cyrus's... take over the Sinnoh region...but unlike his Great-Grandfather Johnathon is willing to do anything to do...even Kill." The last word echoed in his head. Kill....kill....kill... His arms tensed and hands clenched into a ball. "Then I definitely must try my best to stop him." He spoked aloud.

Asking the professor, "Will we have supplies like PokeBalls, Potions and Poke?"
 
Professor Rowan nodded handing each of them some PokeBalls, Potions, and Poke "Now off you go." he said to the three of them before saying just to the two boys once Marina was out of earshot. "Try to keep Marina from doing rash things. The girl has common sense but she hasn't been the same since what happened a few months ago i'm worried she might get herself hurt."
 
"Try to keep Marina from doing rash things. The girl has common sense but she hasn't been the same since what happened a few months ago i'm worried she might get herself hurt." Professor Rowan told the boys. Brandon nodded.

To Terra, he said with a tinge of cheerfulness, "Time to train and maybe catch some
Pokemon!" "Turtwig twig!" He replied. Brandon strolled out of the lab and folded his bicycle into his bag and headed out of Sandgem Town. He walked to Floaroma Town and bought 5 jars of honey from the man selling them. He walked out of the town towards Valley Windworks and walked into the grass patch. He heard a rustle and turned around.

OOC: What can we catch?
 
Lucy quickly stepped to the side as a boy walked out of the lab. She watched him leave for a moment and then walked inside.
"Hey there, did you need something?" Professor Rowan asked.
"I don't know," she replied simply without really thinking it through.
He chuckled. "You must have needed something."
"I didn't want to interrupt."
"Don't worry. You're not."
Lucy gave a short, unnoticeable nod and made her way towards him. "Choose your Pokémon… That's why you're here, isn't it?" asked Professor Rowan. Lucy slowly put her hand on a Pokéball without replying. As she touched it, her finger slipped and pushed the button on the Pokéball. A Squirtle was released. It opened its eyes as if it were sleeping before. "Squirtle!" it said joyously. "This is Squirtle," Professor Rowan announced. "Take good care of it."
Lucy crouched in front of it. "Hi?" she said in a way as if asking a question. "My name is Lucy," she cleared her somewhat raspy throat.
"Squirt!" it hugged her knee. Lucy looked at it and then at Professor Rowan.
"It's very affectionate towards people," he explained. "By the way, random question."
Lucy straightened up. "What?"
"Do you feel we will succeed?"
Lucy just stared at him with her dark eyes and repeated, "What?" she waited for his response and returned Squirtle to its Pokéball. Professor Rowan didn't answer. "Interesting question, sir," Lucy said, trying to avoid asking anything else.
 
Marina had followed quickly after Brandon since they had been told to stick together when she saw him encounter a wild Pokemon. "It could be good to train lets see what we can find Flare." she said happily and after a moment she ran into a wild Pachirisu.

OOC: in this area you can catch Drifloon, Pachirisu, and Starly.
 
Finally! I had arrived at Sandgem town, just north-east of Twinleaf. I was exhausted but I had to get to the lab, so with a spring in my step, I trot off for Professor Rowan's. Upon entering the laboratory, I sprinted up to the professor, a look of excitement being worn on my face. I couldn't believe it. My journey was set to start!

"Hey professor!"

The professor grinned and we exchanged pleasantries. After a brief conversation, he handed me a pokeball. He revealed to me that it was a Mudkip. I smiled wider than ever before. I beamed at the capsule I was honored, I was allowed to start my journey! And boy was I going to get going.

Before leaving I bade farewell to professor Rowan, who let me know that there were three other new trainers that had recently left so after I was outside the line of vision of the professor I ran as fast as I could up the route. After losing a lot of breath, two people could be seen in the near distance. SO I continued on running and stopped upon reaching the two others. One was a male, the other a female.

"Hey," he panted. "I'm Josh."
 
As Garen watched patiently and listened to the conversations going on in front of him he had a big smile on his. "Thanks for the pokeballs Prof.," Garen said thanking Professor Rowan as he gave him the pokeballs and other things. "I don't have time baby sitting a little girl," He responding to Professor Rowan telling him about Marina. "Alright Blitz let's go!" Garen said excitedly as he and Blitz ran outside.

"Ok pal let's go find us a pokemon to battle," Garen said as he walked passed the other trainers and into a patch of grass. Garen and Blitz walked around the grass a bird pokemon flew out of the grass knocking Blitz over. "Alright our first battle let's get it on Blitz use an attack!" Garen commanded.
 
"Hey," Marina heard a voice pant. "I'm Josh".

She smiled not taking her attention away from the Pachirisu in front of her. "I'm Marina nice to meet you" she said before focusing on the wild Pokemon. "Alright Flare use Scratch on the Wild Pachirisu" she said happily.

Flare nodded running forward quickly hoping to land a scratch on the wild Pokemon.

"Pachi!" the Pokemon exclaimed dodging and hitting Flare with a swift Thundershock.

"Hang in there Flare and use Ember full blast!" Marina yelled no way was she going to lose in her first encounter with a wild Pokemon.

Shaking it's head from the pain Flare sent a swift and powerful Ember at Pachirisu. The Pokemon tried to dodge but failed getting hit by the flames and pushed back wincing in pain as it was burned before managing to hit Flare with another Thundershock. "It's now or never" Marina thought to herself grabbing a Poke"ball from her bag and with a grin she tossed it right at the Pachirisu who was enveloped in a red light before disappearing. The Poke"ball fell to the ground shaking and Marina held her breath waiting.

OOC: here is an example of what to do when fighting a wild Pokemon.
 
"Nice to meet you too Marina."

I panted, a smirk crossing my face. I felt excited upon seeing the pokemon attack each other. There was nothing in the world better than pokemon battles. The whole world knew that, anyone who thought otherwise didn't rate highly in my opinion. After seeing the capsule envelope the wild pokemon I crossed my fingers, despite only meeting Marina I was wishing her luck.

"Good luck. Pachirisu would be a superb add to your team!"

With Mudkip at my heels, I began to scan the area for any wild pokemon I could lay claim to, or at least battle for the experience.

[[OOC;OutOfCharacter; Just asking, but every once in a while can there be a dragon pokemon available for capture, I'm attempting to be a dragon tamer :3.]]
 
(OOC: Sure you can find a Gible know if you'd like they're rare to find so to successfully catch it you'd need a detailed post go for it :))

Marina smiled "Thanks" she called after him before sighing at the fact she was still the youngest and only girl before focusing on the shaking Poke"ball. Letting out a an excited yell of happiness when the capture was successful. She ran forward picking the ball up and calling out the Pokemon healing both it and Flare. As she smiled down at the Pachirisu she giggled when it began rolling around in a small patch of daisies. "I think i'm gonna call you Daisy i hope we'll be great friends." she said happily.

"Tor!" Flare called out excitedly.

Marina giggled before she caught sight of someone standing at the edge of the forest, but once her eyes where on the figure they ran away. "Come on lets go check it out" She said running after the person followed by her Pokemon no one had seen her run off.
 
The bird pokemon looked at Blitz with a confused look on it's face as it flapped its wings in the air. "Char!" Blitz roared as he lunged at the pokemon claws at the ready. "Starly!" The bird pokemon shouted as it avoided the attack. Angry the bird pokemon charged at Blitz wings glowing and hit him with them. "Blitz!" Garen shouted as Blitz flew back from the attack. "Quick Blitz retaliate with a scratch attack again!" Garen commanded as Blitz charged at the bird pokemon again. "Judging by the way this pokemon looks it's probably a Starly," Garen thought as Blitz hit the Starly. "Star!" The Starly moaned in pain as it hit the ground. "Again Blitz," Garen ordered. Blitz charged at the Starly and scratch at it again. "Star!" The Starly yelled as it quickly flew back into the air and dodged the attack.

The Starly then charged at Blitz with lighting fast speed and a streak of light flowing behind it. "Blitz!" Garen wailed as Blitz was hit by the attack. "Blitz use something to beat this starly!" He yelled. Blitz then looked up fire in his eyes determined to beat the starly. "Charamander!" Blitz roared as bullets of fire shot out of his mouth and hit the starly. "Now here we go!" Garen said as the starly landed on the ground from the hit. "Go pokeball!" He yelled tossing a pokeball. The ball tapped the starly opened up and starly went inside like a beam of light. the ball began to shake
 
[[OOC;OutOfCharacter; Okay thanks, but I'm going to just stick with a Starly for the moment. Maybe after Eterna gym I'll give it a go.]]

"Congrats. Are you going to- too late"

She had run off before I could finish my question, which caused me to put on a wry smile. She reminded me of myself. I brushed my hair out of my face as the slight breeze blowing had messed it up which was really annoying. You don't get girls with messy hair!

A flock of Starly could be seen in the near distance, they were surrounding a weakly looking Pidgey. Several Starly were pecking the Pidgey. Taken aback, Ace and I ran towards the pack. Several of the birds fled but a few remained. The Mudkip stared up at me and winked. I knew this was the time to test his abilities, and he seemed confident so why shouldn't I be.

"Ace here we go! Give it a Water gun!"

The pokemon obliged. It opened it's mouth and sprayed a jet of ice cold water at the group of birds. All but one flew off. The Starly flew towards Ace at an unbelievable speed. It began to tackle, peck, and scratch away at Mudkip, leaving the latter cringing. I began to panic, I wasn't expecting this, but I took a deep breath and thought of a plan.

"Mud-slap go, you can do it Ace"

The water pokemon jumped backwards and sprayed handfuls of mud at the bird that was standing inches in front of it. The bird became covered, it could not see due to the mud in it's eyes so this was the perfect opportunity. I unclipped a spherical capsule from my belt. The chrome shone in the reflection of the sun. I aimed the ball at the bird and launched it. The capsule consumed the Starly and began rocking backwards and forwards.
 
The ball shook for a moment or two before it stopped shaking the capture successful.

*Back with Marina*
Marina ran through the woods following the person running away from her when she heard voices and stopped.

"Did she follow you?" she heard a man say.

"Yeah she did didn't suspect a thing" another man answered.

Marina stayed silent and still looking down at her Pokemon. "Daisy go try to find someone something doesn't feel right" she said as quiet as possible. Daisy nodded up at her trainer before running quickly and silently back the way they had come.
 
[[OOC;OutOfCharacter; Okay. Thanks for that. 8D.]]

The ball ceased to rock. It flashed red. The capture was successful. A broad grin spread on my face. I had captured a pokemon. I slowly walked towards the crimson and pearl sphere and picked it up. Beaming I let a tear drip from my eye. Suddenly I heard an urgent cry from Mudkip. I turned to see what was going on. Pidgey looked like it was in a bad state. I kneeled down beside the injured bird and sprayed a potion on it.

"Hey! Get away from my Pidgey!," another trainer said as he ran towards the pair of injured pokemon and trainer. The other boy gave me a dirty look, which I returned, "I sprayed it with a potion mate, your welcome." I then got up, turned and walked away. Mudkip at my side I knew this was going to be a good day.

I threw the pokeball containing Starly up and down a few times pondering on which name I should give it before confirming it in my mind. It would be known as Steven. I released the bird from it's ball and it smiled at me and winked before hovering above my shoulder for a few seconds, before landing there gently. Mudkip then climbed up and sat on my other shoulder. (Sounds like Ash in the anime after he catches his first pokemon)
