Bri kept walking, searching for Snivy. Drizzle and Duster had followed him. He suddenly heard a shout.
"That sounded like Snivy!" Bri said. Duster climbed up to his shoulder, and he ran off after Drizzle, who had run ahead. He reached where she was. She was crouched next to a rock. She was looking really beat up, and had some burns on her side and back. A Growlithe was standing there yelling at her.
"This is my area! Go find your own!" he said. Snivy cowered even lower.
"Hey! Leave my Snivy alone! She didn't mean to go in your area!" Bri said. Drizzle stepped forward.
"What? Oh... A human. This snake is yours?" Growlithe said.
"Well... She's my friend and my partner. Let her go!" Bri said. Growlithe nodded to himself.
"No. I'll get rid of her!" he said. Drizzle used Water Gun to blast the Growlithe. While he was distracted, Bri took out her pokeball and returned Snivy. Growlithe was livid. He blasted Ember at Drizzle, who dodged it easily. He ran out and used Pursuit. The dark power shone from his paws, and he slammed it into Growlithe. Growlithe growled savagely at Drizzle, who grinned mockingly. Growlithe ran forward and used Bite, which clamped on Drizzle's arm.
"Drizzle! Use Sonic Boom!" Bri said. Drizzle leapt into the air and used his tails to shoot bursts of sound at the Growlithe still hanging on to his arm. Growlithe let go and fell to the ground hard. He got back up, and hit Drizzle with Ember as he fell. Drizzle Hit the dirt, and was back up in a flash. Drizzle, at Bri's request, hit Growlithe with a Water Gun. That was it. Growlithe turned to run.
"Use Pursuit!" Bri said, getting an idea. Drizzle hit the fleeing Growlithe with his dark energy, and Growlithe hit the dirt. Bri threw his pokeball as hard as he could, and it connected with Growlithe. The ball fell to the dirt and began shaking. After a moment, it dinged, and the light turned white. Bri had caught Growlithe. He walked over and picked up the pokeball.
"I think I'll call you Nova," Bri said. Then he fell to the ground. That had been terribly scary! Snivy had been hurt, and so had Drizzle, though he wasn't as bad. Bri sat down and started crying.
(OOC: Snivy gets nothing for that battle. All she did was run.)
