It's a Pokemon RP! We're still kind of in testing phase. ^^;

[x Tiryn]

Jade heard Eevee laugh when Tristan hit the water. Jade smirked a little cause it was a little funny. Neither of them had no idea he couldn't swim. Jade hid her smirk when spheal rolled up to Jade. Jade had strange feeling of deja vu when this pokemon rolled up to her. But instead of looking at her pathetically, he seemed more concerned about Tristan's bag. She lowered it so he could take it.  

[SephiLyn]

Spheal clapped his flippers and took the bag but instead of taking it to Tristan, he ripped it open and took out one of the Pokedolls. Tristan walked up in a daze and then noticed his Spheal trying to ripe the head off his favorite Skitty doll. "No, Paris! Don't rip it!" But it was too late. The head was off and floods of stuffing blood came pouring out. Tristan started to tear up.  

[x Tiryn]

"You're a little devil spheal, aren't you?" Jade asked in response to the Skitty pokedoll decapitation. Zev was just sitting on Jade's head, looking down in surprise. He had been thinking of getting off her head but after seeing the stuffing, decided not to.
"Want me to fix that?" Jade asked the sobbing Tristan. Why was she still being nice to him?  

[SephiLyn]

Tristan, still sobbing, looked up at Jade. "N-no thank you. He'll just tear it up again." He thought back to the last Skitty Doll that he had and how it ended up in shreds of fabric and fluff. Paris nodded and clapped his flippers. Destroying dolls was his favorite thing.  

[x Tiryn]

"Alright then..." Jade looked at the two of them. Seemed the pokemon had some control over the trainer. Zev laughed, realizing this also. Jade told Zev to shush.
"Well then.....see ya, I guess," Jade said to Tristan and turned around, only to instantly freeze. She'd forgotten where she was. "....."  

[SephiLyn]

"Wait! ...you've never been around here...have you?" Tristan asked. He knew a little bit about the area because he heard the pirates talking about Rustboro. He like Rustboro, it had lots of pretty girls and they'd love his Spheal. As long as he doesn't eat their Skitties, they'll love him... Tristan glanced over at his little blue ball of blubber. Paris clapped happily. He realized they were near Petalburg Woods which was near Rustboro. He also knew there were Skitties near Rustboro, and he liked to play with them.  

[x Tiryn]

Jade involuntarily winced. She didn't want it to seem that obvious but she had no choice. She turned back to Tristan.
"No....I'm from the Kanto region. This is my first time in Hoenn."
Zev was watching the spheal named Paris. He thought the little seal thing was interesting, since it seemed to have a strange obsession with Skitties.

As they wandered back into the sunlight, LBG and Liam both slid their shades back over their eyes. "Alright, Little Blue Guy, you ready?" The Squirtle nodded up at Liam, gave him a thumbs up, and shouted out a nice loud "Squirtle!" to go with it. "Let's go, then! This way, LBG!"

Liam took off, LBG following at his side. They soon arrived at the route between Littleroot and Oldale Town and had their first wild Pokemon encounter. A wild Poocheyna popped out of the grass and tackled LBG. "Go get 'im, Little Blue Guy! You can take him!" The Squirtle got back up onto his feet and tackled the Poocheyna right back. Poocheyna was knocked onto his back but flipped over and launched himself at LBG to tackle him again. LBG was more prepared this time around and was able to dodge the attack, countering with another tackle. The Poocheyna again fell over, scurrying away when he finally got up. LBG flashed a grin and gave a thumbs up to no one in particular. He had won the battle.  

[SephiLyn]

Tristan regained himself and smiled. "Well, if that's the case, how about I lead us to the nearest Pokemon Center in a nice small town called Petalburg...away from the Skitties." Spheal frowned, he wanted to play with the Skitties. "This way, my lady." Tristan smiled as he started to walk toward the city.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lyn was very excited, her pokemon were doing pretty good, training wise. But they were getting pretty tired. Tiger perked up his ears, he heard something, but he couldn't see anything. Lyn took out Mr. Worm, who was more awake now that he had a nap. Mr. Worm needs more training to catch up with Tiger... All of a sudden a Poocheyna jumped out of the forest and grabbed at Lyn's bag. Lyn swung it around just in time and Mr. Worm Tackled the Dark Pokemon. Tiger stayed back and watched as the wild pokemon tried to tackle Mr. Worm who shot a String Shot at the Poocheyna. Now stuck in the stickies, an experience Lyn remembered too well, Mr. Worm tackled Poocheyna and got away before the pokemon did a disasterous tackle that missed horribly. "Wait, Mr. Worm!" Lyn said, as she took out a pokeball and tossed it at the pokemon. It burst open on contact and sucked the pokemon inside. It wiggled, once, twice, three times...it came out! The angry pokemon tackled Mr. Worm. The injured Wurmple used an Oran berry to heal himself. Lyn took out another pokeball and threw it. This time, the Poocheyna stayed in. "Hooray! It stayed in! Oh!? What should I call it...? How about...Phantom." Lyn smiled deviously. Tiger shook his head, he couldn't believe she picked that name.  

[Michiru Tendo]

"Great job, LBG! Let's try to run into one of those guys again. This time I'll try to catch it, so don't make it run away, alright?" LBG nodded up at Liam and wandered on ahead of him, running around in the grass to find another Poocheyna. He soon ran into one, literally. The Squirtle fell over as he accidentally bumped into the wild Poocheyna. The now angry Pokemon took the opportunity to tackle the fallen Squirtle. LBG quickly got up (or as quickly as a turtle Pokemon could get up) and tackled the Poocheyna right back, knocking him over. Liam rummaged through his pocket to pick out a Pokeball and toss it at the Poocheyna. "Got 'im! Great job, LBG! High five!" The Squirtle waddled over to his trainer to reach up and give him a high five. Before their hands even met, though, the Poocheyna had gotten out of the Pokeball and was more angry than ever. He charged at LBG, tackling him hard to the ground ((uh oh, critical hit! surprised )). LBG fainted from the blow and the Poocheyna trotted off into the grass.

"Oh no, Little Blue Guy! Are you okay? Hey!" Liam bent down and picked the little Squirtle up in his arms. When the Pokemon gave no response Liam took off at a run to recover him in the Pokemon Center.

Cosette watched the battle with Tiger, snorting as Tiger shook his head. She didn't agree with the name for the new Poocheyna either. Just then she began to pick up Karen's scent again. Cosette nudged first Tiger then Lyn and trotted off in the direction she knew her trainer would be.  

[SephiLyn]

Teddy sat in his tent, unaware of his brother's actions. He could barely hold his excitement! He was going to travel the world and get all sorts of pokemon! He'd get a Flygon, an Alakazam, a Jolteon, a Magmar, a Vileplume, and of course he'd always have his Mudkip but...the evolved form! Teddy had stars of joy in his eyes. He could just see it...That was it, he decided to go knock on the door to the lab. He knew no one was there, he'd checked the windows and knocked beofre, but he had to get a Mudkip. He got out of his tent and walked up to the door. "Excuse me!" He called, "Professor! Please let me in if you're there!" He frowned a little, knowing that no one was there, but he stilled waited.

Aeris was momentarily startled from her search for more tracks, brought to a dead halt by Karen's question. Her mind groped for an answer.

"A-a Pokemon attack t-that missed the enemy Pokemon and h-hit me?" Damn her stutter, it was giving her away as a liar... lost in thought an angry Pokemon suddenly attacked; one she recognized as a wurmple, and not one she was particularly interested in catching. She pulled out the Poke ball containing her new Shroomish and silently released him, calling out an attack almost immediately.

"Feint left, leech seed." Shroomish rolled it's tiny body to the left, avoiding a string shot and slammed the wurmple with a leech seed. Before the attack had even been completed, Aeris was ready. "Tackle while it's recovering." her voice never rose, never faltered, and it was apparent it was the voice of an experienced trainer who knew how to handle Pokemon.

Shroomish gave an adorable squeak and pounced the wurple, flattening it under it's dense fungus shaped body. Aeris checked to make sure the Wurmple was really knocked out before thanking her Shroomish and recalling him into the poke ball.

Han congratulated her on her first battle with a pokemon besides him, and she caught the jealousy in his voice. Deciding not to comment on it, she turned to Karen instead.

"We should continue on." She walked into the trees, hot on the trail of Cosette's prints.  

[Michiru Tendo]

The nurse at the Pokemon Center had LBG taken care of right away and he was soon given back to Liam. "Thanks, Miss Nurse." Liam lifted his shades and gave the nurse a smile and a wink, causing the young woman to blush as he took the Squirtle from her.

"How are you feeling, Little Blue Guy? Better?" Liam asked the Pokemon in his arms as he walked out of the Center. The Squirtle nodded up at his trainer and babbled happily in his Squirtle language, waving his arms to let Liam know that he could put him down. Liam took the hint and set his turtle Pokemon down. "That's good that they fixed you right up. How do you feel about a break, Little Blue Guy?" LBG shook his head vigorously. His pride was seriously damaged when he got beaten by that wild Pokemon and he wanted to redeem it. "Wanna train more? Alright, let's see if we can go catch one of those Pokemon you were fighting earlier."

Liam and LBG headed off in the direction of the route to Oldale. Liam stopped by the Professor's house to see what Teddy was up to first when he saw him banging and shouting at the door. "Still impatient, huh?" He grinned at the youngster.  

[Michiru Tendo]

Karen stared at Aeris, a bit confused by her answer. "But if it's a Pokemon attack, then wouldn't it have worn off by now? You were glowing last time too in the cave. I don't get it... Eep, what's that?!" Karen jumped slightly as she saw the angry Wurmple try to attack Aeris. She watched in amazement as the other girl battled the wild Pokemon with skill and ease. Karen clapped her hands together happily after the battle was over and smiled at Aeris as she walked a bit faster to catch up with the girl again. "That was amazing! You're so great at Pokemon battles, Aeris! How long have you been a trainer? You must have trained Pokemon since you were really young! You're incredible!"
