Candle and his Slowpoke walked through the dense undergrowth.

Not 'dense' persay. But, the grass was awfully tall to be... grass. Candle sighed, brushing his hair behind his ear, the greenery was already doing a fine job at obstructing his sight. Dona lagged behind the boy, swaying from side to side with each step he had. As long as he could keep his trainer's scent intact with his nose, he was going to be fine.

"Scoot over little bugs,"Candle said loudly, trying his best not to step on any of the Wurmple or Caterpie on the ground, last thing he needed was roadkill on his foot.

The bug pokemon cocked their heads, jumping out of the way of the mysterious giant and his Slowpoke. {Candle-person. How far is this Bark of New you speak of..?}the pink pokemon moaned in his low voice, already beginning to take hurried deep breaths. He was tiring out fast.

"Already complaining, eh?"the boy answered, laughing impishly as the water type frowned.

"Just a bit more, don't think we're far now. 'Haps a few more minutes,"he added, spotting another one of those road signs. But, road signs also meant,

"A road!"Candle smiled, releasing himself from the flurry of green and entering the brown, dirt road. Not to far in the distance- He had to shield his eyes from the Sun to see- there lay a small, quaint looking town.

{Th-Thank Feebas..}Dona's tougue was hanging out of his mouth, as he leaned against the sturdy legs of his owner. Candle was about to concur with that statement, only to be interrupted by a loud, buzzing noise. Followed by the sound of rushing wind, a pair of very fast wings, most likely. The boy whimpered as the volume of the noise grew louder, the thing creating it drawing nearer and nearer.

"Oh, cra-"the trainer had no chance to finish his sentence. A swarm of Beedrill swooping down from the treetops. The biggest and most muscular one[probably the leader] narrowed its eyes, as if studying the boy and his pokemon.

{Charge, troops. Charge like you've never charged before, my troops!!!}after a second or two, the bee buzzed loudly, swinging a needle arm back and forth to signal the direction of their movement.

The young male had no idea of Beedrill speech patterns, but, he more or less knew what they were planning to do. Without another word, he grabbed Dona's front paw, dashing off as fast as he could. The entire fleet of bug types chasing after.
 
<'You don't think we're getting closer?'> Sellili was asking me as she did flips and turns in midair, <'We've been walking for a really loooong time!'>

"I've, been walking for a really long time." I corrected her, pointing out the fact that she had no feet, and hadn't taken a single step in her entire life. Selili pouted and floated around me, before a wild grin spread across her face. She darted high into the air and cried, <I see it, I see it! ....It's kind of hard to miss!'>

Sweatdropping, I nodded, showing I'd heard her, and Selili rushed ahead, bouncing up and down from seeing a less traditional place for the first time in her life. Sure wherever she'd lived in Hoenn before the peddler caught her probably wasn't as traditional as Ecruteak, but she always told me, that she couldn't remember anything from Hoenn, and that it was just too much work to try to remember. I sped up slightly, so that I wouldn't lose Selili, who was having fun cartwheeling and spinning around in the air like always.

Saving up each year had been hard, but I'd had to resist the candy, the stuffed animals, the brand new tarot cards, the metal tarot cards, and the crystal orb, just so I could buy the stupid pokegear around my neck. That reminded me! I pulled the sling bag off my shoulder and sifted around for my Tarot Cards. Pulling out an entirely random card and putting the grey bag over my head on onto my shoulder again, I glanced at the Tarot Card I'd pulled out. Blinking down at the card, I sweatdropped and wondered if it was a bad idea to go on a journey. I couldn't believe I'd pulled out the fool! I thought at least maybe the king, or the high priestess, but the fool?!

<'Ta-da! Welcome to Goldenrod City, please watch your step and try not to become this weeks pokemon accident!'> Selili cried into the air, rushing over the busy crowd and bobbing up and down, waiting for me.

"Well....fool or not, here's to the first journey!" I said putting the tarot card back where it needed to be, and plunging into the river of people trying to get here or there.
 
"Ok, let's stop by this tree, shall we? I don't think I can go any farther with this back back on..." I sighed and sulked over to the tree while Blair followed behind, chanting to herself. Once I sat down I took of the backpack and began to dig for some sitrus berries of Blair and me to snack on. Blair didn't seem the least bit hungry or tired while she towered over me with a disapproving look. <You're not giving up already are you? I've still got 10 more miles left in me! We can't stop now!>

"Well, maybe you should carry the backpack. You're more energetic than I am." I retorted, peeling off the orage peels of the berry. At times, I begin to think that maybe I'm not worthy enough to have Blair as one of my Pokemon. She was more energetic and outgoing than I was, and always showed what was on her mind. But then again, opposites attract. Blair puffed up a bit and sat down besides me looking towards the way of the road in a flustered way.

<I'll carry the backpack if we can start going now.> She said as I handed her a sitrus berry. I smiled at her and gave her a hug. "You're the best Blair~"
<Tell me something I don't know. This is a whole lot better than taking care of sick Pokemon.> She was right. At about this time I would be sweeping a floor or making potions. Out on the open road, there was nothing that needed to be done.

"Blair, do you think that Nurse Joy is alright with us gone?" I questioned, just finishing up my berry. <Of course she is, she's got six other Chansey's on the job, you know.> Blair reassured me. As if she had read my mind, Blair added, <Well, I'm sure she'll have some holes to fill, we were irreplaceable you know!> Still, I worried for her and gave a silent wish that she'd be alright.

When Blair had finished her berry, she heaved the backpack onto her back and began to head down the path ahead of me. <Come on you Slowpoke! If you don't hurry up, we'll be there after dusk!> She growled back as she skipped along the path. Spraying a bit of repel on my clothes, ( I wasn't in a mood to encounter any Pokemon yet) I happily trailed after her with a burden off my back.
 
Ooc-

Gah, Candle's headed the wrong way! ;;.;; *tries to come up with a fast plan*



Ic-


"Don't- they - ever - get - tired- ?"Candle screeched between breaths, trying his best not to cough his lungs out anytime soon. The piece of extra weight he was pulling along wasn't helping at all either.

{R-Run! They be gaining on us!}Dona yelled, closing his eyes once he was done, he would've gotten a good sleep at a time let this, if not for the fact that they had a swarm of Beedrill chasing them.


"Try running yourself!"the boy shouted, realising that now, he was running all the way back towards Cherrygrove.

The little town could be seen, but, not only that. A sparkle of blue at the edge of Cherrygrove caused Candle to instantely brighten up. Maybe it wasn't such a bad idea calling Dona out after all.

--

"Outta the way! Outta the way! Precious life at stake here!!!"Candle cried out shrilly, running through the town as fast as he could, 'never-minding' the stares and odd looks, his own eyes glued on the huge amount of sea no too far off.

"Dona, get ready to swim."he told the Slowpoke he was dragging along, who nodded politely, his tired eyes suddenly replaced with a determined fire.

"- Very fast"the boy added, as both trainer and pokemon drew near to the sea, the dopey pokemon running ahead and splashing into the water. Candle jumped onto Dona's back soon after, sticking his tougue out at the Beedrill swarm.

"Asta la vista, you big ol' bugs!"the boy called out impishly as his Slowpoke utilised his Surf attack, speeding off into the sea.

The leader of the Beedrill frowned, unsatisfied with this outcome.

{Fleet! Positions forward!}he ordered, his two needle-for-arms glowing as they readied for a Pin Missile attack, the rest of his swarm following suit.

{Fire at will!}


Candle clung onto his Slowpoke's pelt as hard as he could, hoping that all the pins flinging towards them at that very moment would miss. He yelped as he felt some sharp ends shooting pass him, small rips and cuts in his jacket.

"Ah!! T-This was my favourite one, too!"the boy sounded like he was on the verge of tears, taking off the jacket and examining it closely, ignoring the Beedrill leader and his shaking 'fist'. The whole swarm growing smaller and smaller as Dona helped to distance them.

{Where to now, Candle-person?}the Slowpoke asked eagerly, he was wide awake now, probably because he was in his finest element- Water.

"Um, whichever city that doesn't have a forest or Beedrill. Perhaps, Goldenrod? I hear that it's pretty near here. If you speed up a bit, of course."Candle said absent-mindely, still caught up with surveying his article of clothing.


{Aye-Aye! Capy-tain!}
 
I know it's a bit late, but could I join? I'll edit this post with my form..

DS

EDIT

Name: William Shyndow

Age: 13

Pokémon: Charmader

Final Team: Charizard, Golduck, Tyranitar, Machamp, Snorlax, Nidoking

Legendary: Zapdos

Personality: William is smart, there's no question about it. His intelligence far outstrips even the most well known and effective psychologists, sending them babbling incoherently back to their own clinics. His brain is so large, that it seems his head is too small to fit the brain. The one downside about being so smart, is that his social skills suffer. He cannot get on with somene who is stupider than he is without scaring them out of their skin. His very vocabulary is enough to send any normal person running for his or her life. He will never listen to other people's opinions, believing his to be the only solution. However, they often are. He has the ability to close his eyes, and remove his mind from his body, oblivivous of the surroundings, to contemplate on a situation, and come up with an effective plan to get out of it. However, it is never he who is made to do the plan, but someone with alittle more physical strength, and life's experiences. However, he has saved pleanty of lives like this, and employs this tactic while battling with his Charmander.

Appearance: William has dark hair, which falls in front of his face. The hair is often combed neatly to one side, so that his vision is not distorted. His eyes are a ghastly blue in colour, radiating intelligence out of them. His smile is so scary to look at, that people often believe that he is a vampire, which is hard not to believe, when yo look at his bleached skin, and evil-looking smile, enough to send shivers down anybody's spine. His body is pathetically weak, and devoid of any muscle whatsoever. This is why he must always have someone strong around him, and in most cases it is his Charmander. He wears nothing but the finest two piece suits, made for navy-blue material, and tailored by some o the world's most famous companies, to fit. Even his watch, is custom made, showing the time of three diferent places all on one screen, a calculator, a temperature reader, and live satelite feed into whatever location he currently is, maing it impossible or him to get lost. His shoes are made from leather, black and shiny from constant polishing by his maids and manservants.

History: William has never known how it feels to be hungry, poor, or, for that matter, uncomfortable. His entire life has been spent in luxury, as his family is one of the top five richest families in Johto. His house is more like a mansion than anything. White marble everywhere, and servants running around, picking after him. But despite thhis richness, and his obvious adult-like intelligence, he still has that child-like belief in magic, and the supernatural. On one of hisinternet trawls, he picked up wind of the legend. Reading all that there was on that particular page, he ran a search on a search engine, and found a string of at least fifteen links about the legend. He narrowed it down to five, as the other ten were completely useless. He read all he could aout the legends, finding it fascinating to even read about. Thinking carefully about al of his options, he picked up his fellow partner Charmander, and went off, looking for more information on the legend. He can call the mansion anytime he wants, calling for backup, and within one hour, a helicopter shall be hovering overhead, dropping down trained fighters. He is never truly alone.

Other: -None-

RP Sample: This i from another RP I've done, but if you want a new and fresh one, all you need to do is yell, and I'll whip something up for you.

Holy crap!

I stared in wonder at the room in front of me, and just could not believe it. I had never imagined that the Tower would have such difficult obstacles to pass. I looked around at the floor, taking in its dangers. The obvious, and first danger would be the walls of Plasmatium that are trying to kill me. Although at first sight, the walls seem to be jutting out randomly, nothing can actually be completely random, unless there is a human being behind a control panel, making it. Otherwise, whatever mechanical thing was making the walls jut out definitely had to repeat itself once in a while, even if it took ages to do so. The safest thing to do would be to wait for it, and see when the walls jutted out, but that would take too much time. I had to think of another way.

I looked beyond the jutting out pillars, and swore. Even if I did manage to see when the pillars came out, I would just fall down onto a ramp of ice, which would take me down into a pit, where I would be subject to a landslide, and later be cut to pieces by Cutterbots, that was, if I survived the pillars, the freezing ice, and the landslide. This would take all of the energy from me and my Pokémon. Only brain power could help here. This was one place where brute force would not be of any help at all. Now I really wished that I hadn't gotten out of bed.

Well, Arcanine would be the best for this situation, but I'll have to keep Aerodactyl at the ready, before I slide down the ice. I slowly plucked Arcanine's poké-ball from my belt, and held it out in front of me, surveying it with concentrated eyes. I threw it into the air, where it snapped open, flooding the vicinity in a white light, and revealing my Arcanine.

His canine structure was now more prominent than ever, as his eyes darted around, his nose twitched, and his ears swivelled to take in all of the details of the Tower of One Hundred Challenges. For the first time ever, I saw a hint of fear flicker across his face, but he quickly covered that emotion, and looked up at me, with understanding eyes. His soft orange and black fur stood hackled around his neck, while his yellow teeth were bared. He planted his feet wide, and held his ground as I quickly explained to him what my idea was.

"See these pillars that seem to randomly strike each other from each side of the wall? Well, the quickest way to get past them would be to evade them, and even though there is a slight space at the top, I doubt that Aerodactyl would fit, so you would be the obvious choice. Now, I know that with me on your back, I'll slow you down, but I need to get across, so move as fast as you can. I'll take it from there, once you've made it across," I quietly whispered, stroking Arcanine's fur.

He gave a gruff nod, and bent his hind legs, so that I could climb up on his back. I sat on the shoulder blades, just in front of his fore legs. Although his is not the customary seating on an Arcanine, my Arcanine told me that it was the most comfortable on him, so I agreed to it. I placed my legs around his breast, interlocking my feet together, but trying not to squeeze too hard. I bent over, pushing my face into Arcanine's soft mane, and squeezing him with me knees to tell him that I was ready.

He stood in one spot for a while, seeming to wait for the right moment. But after standing there for almost fifteen minutes, I was about to sit up straight an ask him what he was doing, and as I did, he bound forward. I quickly grasped his fur with my hands, and held on tightly as we charged forward. I felt a rush of air as one of the pillars slammed the opposite wall from behind us, and Arcanine and I were tossed forward in a heap. Arcanine quickly rose up, and continued. This process happened several numbers of times, until suddenly, we were too slow, and the pillar slammed into the wall, ahead of us, trapping us off. And we were right in the path of another pillar, and it was coming on fast.

I had no other choice.

"Go, Kangaskhan!"

I threw another poké-ball into the way of the onward-coming pillar, and it once again, erupted in an iridescent light, that slowly took the form of my Kangaskhan. Kangaskhan stood tall and strong as it roared a menacing roar, while the baby Kangaskhan in its pouch squeaked in unison. The one thing that I liked about Kangaskhan was that I never needed to tell him what to do. He would just asses the situation, and immediately act. His eyes scanned over me, Arcanine, and the oncoming pillar, and his eyes glinted in recognition.

He closed his eyes, facing the pillar, and pushing his hands out in front of him, while Arcanine and I squeezed against the other pillar in front of us, trying to make it open. However, Arcanine was trained for speed, and not for strength, and we could not do it. But we were now not in Kangaskhan's way. The pillar flew forward, and Kangaskhan took the full force of it, while its baby squealed form inside its pouch. The pillar continued to move, pushing Kangaskhan with it, but he was determined to stop it. He planted his feet wide and firm, and tried to dig his claws into the metallic flooring. The pillar considerably slowed down, but it would still crush Kangaskhan if it reached the wall.

I then knew what I had to do.

Closing my eyes, I summoned upon the power that my suit had granted me. Yelling out the triple-syllable word, "LIVEWIRE", I held my hands out in front of me, willing for my powers to work. For a split-second I felt a fleeting sensation of let-down, but I concentrated even harder, and I felt the familiar sensation of clutching my whip. I brought my hands down, allowing the whip to come into contact with the wall in front of me. The imagination of having Kangaskhan being crushed was sickening, and it spurred me to work faster, and so I did. I let loose the charge of electricity that completely covered the pillar, and sent the currents waving through it. The power of the electrical whip was enough to short-circuit the pillar, and it became loose enough for Arcanine and I to push it open.

Quickly recalling Kangaskhan, and Arcanine, the sudden wind rush from the pillar that Kangaskhan had previously been holding when it hit the wall was deafening, and I was sent careening down towards the crumbling floor. I landed on the metallic bit, just in front of the floor, and swore loudly, as I saw the gap extending towards me. I couldn't think right, as I saw the gap, extedning closer nad closer towards me, making. I began to shiver, as I though about falling down that gap, and my mind began to race. There was only one way I would be able to get myself out of this mess, and that was by using stretegy. And I knew just how to do it.

"Go, Onix!"

The poké-ball slipped form my fingers, and rolled down towards the gap. Looking horrified, I begged and pleaded with all my might for Onix to appear. Seconds before falling down into the pit, he ball snapped open, and I heard a powerful roar emit from it, as a bright white light appeared, to create Onix. Onix's hard body glinted in the little light that was available on this particular floor. He looked at me, his black eyes shinging with intelligence, something that one doesn't often see in an Onix's face. However, my Onix was bred, and trained to perfection, and therefore, would be able to be smarter than an average Onix. I needed smartness from a strong and long Pokémon right now, and Onix fit the bill.

"Listen, Onix. You see the crumbling floor? If I fall down that, it's bye, bye Sam. I need you to stretch across as far as you can, and touch the other end, while still keeping your tail here, so that I can climb over. I promise that you won't get hurt, okay?" I asked.

Onix nodded in recognition, and whipped his tail around the short-circuited pillar, and lashed out his head, across the gorge. For a split second, I thought that he would make it, but all of a sudden, he stopped. His body was stretched out as far as it could reach, but the floor was too far away. I swore, and pulled out Aerodactyl's poké-ball, flining it into the air. Quickly, Arodactyle made his appearance, released from his confinement, and landed next to me. With a quick look at me, he wondered if I should get onto his back, but I knew that form up there, the Plasmatium Cutterbots would be able to get me, instead, I decieded for a little unorthodox movement.

"Aerodactyl, fly over to Onix, and grab his face with your talons. Then stretch your face out to the floor in front of you," I commanded, in a quick whisper, now understanding how close I was to failig my first floor.

Following my commands, Aerodactyl opened his magestic wings, and flapped, three times, gaining a lot of altitude. He then folded them back, and dived down to Onix, as if Onix was his prey, and grabbed Onix's nose, much to the large rock snake's displeasure. He then grabbed hold of the opposite wall with his teeth, and grunted in readiness.

I quickly scalled Onix, as his rocks were easy to climb, but Aerodactyl was a different matter. Howevr, I soon amde it across, and recalling the two Pkémon, made my way onto the ice ramp. I was about to carefully make my way down, when suddenly, the ice beenath me felt slippery, and I slipped, falling down onto my backside. I recalled Onix and Aerodactyle from over my shoulder, and got ready. It was time for the big artillery.

I place my fingers on the ice, and dug them in, summoning all of the energy that I had left. Keeping my mind focussed, I yelled out the two words that I had not heard in three years. "TECTONIC SHIFT!", pulling apart the ground beneath me. I had five seconds to complete what I intended. Five…The earth began to crumble down as the crack made its way along the ice, further towards the wall that held back the sand. Four…The crack reached the metal platform where the landslide would take place. Three…two…one…The crack touched the metallic barrier, holding back the sand, and the barrier broke, sending the sand down. Fortunately, my time was up, and the crack closed. I landed face first, on the soft sand, panting.

Suddenly, Cutterbots rose up from the sand, and began to spin around at a high RPM, whipping up one massive sandstorm. I had only one Pokémon that could destroy these Plasmatium Cutterbots, and still come out alive. Quickly calling upon Butterfree, I released the little butterfly from her poké-ball. True, Butterfree would not seem like the ideal Pokémon to destroy these Cutterbots, but Butterfree worked on more than just brute force. Quickly responding to my command, Butterfree flew high in the sky, and above the sandstorm. Seeing the Butterfree, two of the four Cutterbots rose up from the sandstorm, and began to chase Butterfree around. It wasnow a fully fledged dog fight. Quicklycalling out directions for Butterfree to fly, she managed to evade the Cutterbots, but she would soon get tired, while the Cutterbots would manage to keep on going. One more command, that's all. Butterfree stood still, with the Cutterbots on either side. They spun quickly, and flew towards Butterfree. Seconds from the impact, she flew upwards, and the Cutterbots, who were computer programmed, and didn't haveany instincts, continued flying at each other, and when they hit, they both were cut up into tiny pieces.

"Two down. Two more to go," I muttered.

Butterfree, then flew up high above the sandstorm, and began to scatter a yellow powder downward, into the sandstorm. Although Stun Spore was originally meant to paralyze living things, it was obvious that it had some sort of chemical inside, which would slow down a moving being. Slowly, but steadily, the sandstorm began to reside, and in a couple of minutes, it stopped. I looked at the Cutterbots, and they were weakly spinning in circles in the sand, at such a slow rate, that even a Slowpoke would have been able to move faster.

Returning Butterfree, I exited through the wooden door.

OOC: 8O Long time no see Deathspector! Sure thing, we haven't gotten very far yet.
 
Oh...incase you haevn't noticed, I completed my form...i don't want this dying before I post...XD
 
OOC: Oh thanks, I forgot you were editing. ^^; *shot shot shot* Accepted.

IC:Fifteen minutes later, I sat in the window of a small café, sipping on a straw that was slightly stiffened from the smoothie it sat in. I never wanted to see that many people up close again. It was amazing, how nobody in Goldenrod seemed to care about the pick pocketers that were in plain view- in the insanely crowded sidewalks. I saw cars that were at complete standstills, because nobody cared- everyone knew the driver wouldn't run them over, so they just seemed to walk in front of the cars. I glanced at the clock on the wall, an Azurill clock to be exact. It was 12:00 PM. Lunch hour. Which, I guessed, was why I had had trouble finding a restraunt that wasn't pack to the outside of it's doors.

<'Wow. Ecruteak is like a ghost town compared to here.'> Silili commented, pressing her face to the window and staring at passerby's with big ghostly eyes.

"No pun intended, considering Ecruteak IS a ghost town?" I scoffed, taking another sip of my smoothie, "Not as much as Lavender though. Now that is a place I want to see." Leaning back on my chair, I imagined Lavender just as my oldest sibling- my brother, had described it. There was a big tower, filled with pokemon graves, each level had 4 feet empty space in between, where the coffins of pokemon would be placed, and those empty spaces were filled with sand, or dirt, where the coffins would be buried. There were many tombstones, scattered in a perfect pattern so you could reach each and every one of them, and along the walls, were larger tombstones, usually statues or benches erected by the more wealthy.

I wished I could see it. He said the place was crawling with ghost pokemon. Just the thought of how many ghost pokemon that could be there…it made me smile at Silili, who madly grinned back. Ghosts were there too, he'd said. Real, live, ghosts! Now I knew that had to be my destination, but I still had to get to Newbark first.

But before that, I had to get to the pokemon center somehow, through all these people. I sighed, and decided to hang out here, at the café, until lunch hour was over.
 
OOC: I just noticed that I haven't asked for the jewel. I've edited that into my form, but if I'm no allowed to do that, just tell me, and I'll edit it out.

IC:

Azalea Town had always been a favourite town of William's. He had once visited it with his parents on a trip, and every since then, had taken a liking towards it. What he liked best about it, was its quaint feel. It was not a big city sort of place, but a place where elderly and retired people came to spend the rest of their lives, and young grandchildren came to visit during the summer holidays. And to add to all of that, Azalea town was one of the few places where natural history, met with human nature without either of them getting destroyed. The only other places that William knew like this, were Celadon City in Kanto, and Fortree City in Hoenn. Even so, Celadon was much to much of a big city to William's liking, and Fortree was too widely spread. So, he liked Azalea.

Since Azalea was not a big city, it did not have a five-star hotel. Despite his wealth, William despised hotels, as they were a terror on the environment, and that was something his family took very seriously. So, instead of grumbling about not being able to book a penthuse suite in a hotel, William looked for the next best thing. And to do that, he cancelled out all of the things which he did not think woul be good. Right. Definitely no Pokémon Centres. They're good places to heal your Pokémon, and pikc up a quick bite, but the sleeping facilities there are atrocious. I can't stay at the Inn, because that place is filthier than my gardener, and that's saying something. I could stay with Kurt. Yeah, that's what my parents and I did last time. I hope that he's okay with me staying the night, though. Time for a little consultation.

"So, what do you suggest I do, old friend? Do you think Kurt will let me spendthe night? We will be leaving tomorrow morning anyhow," William directed his question to the small red lizard walking on two legs beside him.

<He did last time, William, what makes you think he won't this time?> asked Charmander, swishing his tail back and forth to scare away a Spinarak who was getting too close.

"Of course, you right. I wasn't thinking straight. I shouldn't have allowed my mind to imagine such things. Come on, lets go," said William, berating himself.

Charmander sighed. He was used to seeing William like this. For all of William's intelligence, he just could not take being wrong. You had once gone on and on, shouting at himself, for allowing an opposing Poliwag to use Water Gun on Charmander, even though they had won that particular match. Charmander knew that there was no winning an argument against William. Several Nobel-Prize winning phsychyatrists had tried, and had failed miserably. No, Charmander had learnt to just follow William around when he got in this mood.

Kurt's house was at the north of Azalea Town, so it would be a good hour before they reached there. Charmander looked around for any stragglng and weak Pokémon to pick on as they went. <Might as well have some fun,> he reasoned
 
The sun held its position in the middle of the sky as the young trainer and his Slowpoke crossed the ocean.

"Lunch already..?"Candle groaned softly as the light blinded his eyes, opening the pack on his lap. His jacket was missing from his normal attire while his shirt's sleeves were rolled up to the middle of his upper arm, the heat was getting to him.

After a few moments of digging and searching, he managed to pull out a neatly wrapped sandwich and a handful of berries. The boy placed the small fruits on his bag, proceededing to take the translucent wrapping off the bread, biting into it as he threw the plastic into his bag. Conceited as he knew he was, the last thing he wanted to do was to pollute the sea.

" 'Ere' yo' go,"he mumbled with the crust in his mouth, hanging a Pecha berry infront of Dona's mouth, the water type was delighted, taking caution not to snap onto his trainer's fingers as he swallowed the pink snack. The dopey pokemon's smile seemed to widen as another berry of the same type hung out for him, obliging straight away to digest it. Everytime Dona ate a berry, Candle would take a bite out of his sandwich, this so that he could maintain proper balance on the Slowpoke's back.

This routine continued for quite some time, before Dona perked his ears up at the sight of land in the distance.

{That's Goldenrod, isn't it, Candle-person?}he asked eagerly, his tail propelling them faster through the water.

"Darn right it is!"the boy answered confidently, though he sneaked a look at the blue pokegear on his wrist just to make sure.

{Onwards~!!}the Slowpoke sang out, fully refreshed and rejulvinated from the short lunch break they had, quickly speeding off to the city. On his back, his trainer was also interested in the black tower standing out from the rest, keeping all the objects he had bothered to take out as he studied it. Was it the famous Radio Tower?
