Welcome to Gaia! ::

The boy moved along down the path that he found, making sure that his Litten was close behind. "Mrrrowr..." The cat spoke up.

"What's the matter, Litten? Come on, the exercise would be real good for the both of us. And this place looks real nice, unlike that cave from last time." Tristen said to his cat. This doesn't really get any response from Litten, not really giving any mind. "You're impossible." The boy then said.

"Mrrrr..." Tristen only rolled his eyes from the cat's response.

The boy continued on until something graced his hearing once more. "...?" From nearby exotic shrubbery, a Poochyena came out and started barking at the two of them. This one was anxious for a fight. Litten reared back, giving a hiss back towards the Poochyena.

"Yea, I don't think he's going to wanna leave us alone." Tristen said. The Poochyena rushed in, tackling the cat and starts clamping down with its Bite attack upon the cat. The Litten screeched, flailing about until it managed to escape its grasp. "Litten, are you okay!?"

"Rrrrooowrrr!" Litten hissed out.

"Litten! Fire Fang!"

The Litten rushed forward, retaliating upon the dark hound, and bites down itself. However, unlike the mutt's, this came with a few embers that seemed down with the bite itself. The Poochyena yelped out, quickly scurrying away from Litten. However, it quickly made a hard u-turn and charged full speed ahead, smashing into the Litten with a hard Tackle attack.

"Geez, the Poochyena doesn't know how to quit!" Tristen said. The cat tumbled after the impact a bit, managing to quickly snap back to its feet. "Litten! Use Ember!" Tristen shouted. The cat hopped back and unleashed a flurry of embers upon the hound, pelting it with the searing flames. Another yelp came out of the hound. The hound looked down on itself, grimacing pretty hard, taking notice that it got a nasty burn. The Poochyena hobbled off, not wanting any more of the battle.

Litten started to rush after the dog. "Litten! Stop there! Let him go."

"Mrroww mrrrrowww."

"And we'll deal with that if he does. He's gone now. Let him go." The cat looked back for a moment then trotted off back for Tristen. "Come on, let's see what else is in this place."

Litten - 1 battle

-rolling for Pokemon-

As Wren began to move away from the watering system where he'd found Carnivine, he heard a soft rustling in the underbrush from somewhere close to the desert proper. Here in the Oasis, the shade and water wasn't the most appealing to a lot of the desert dwelling Pokemon but some might wander in from time to time. As he got closer to the desert's edge, though, he spotted the source of the sound. A tiny little mouse was trying to snuggle up and snooze.

"Aww... It's actually kind of cute..." He said to himself as Hyacinth hovered over his shoulder.

"Bébé?"She asked, looking between Wren and the small Cyndaquil. She couldn't recall ever having seen one before but it didn't look all that cute to her. She was far more adorable than it, she felt sure. Although she couldn't deny it was certainly more physically appealing than the flytrap that had tried to eat her not but a few minutes ago.

"Quil?" The Fire Mouse Pokemon yawned slightly as it sat up, looking up through it's heavily lidded eyes to see a human looming over it. "Cynda!!!" It exclaimed, startled by the sudden presence. Without even thinking, the diminutive Pokemon shot a few Embers from it's mouth at the human and jumped backwards.

"Whoa!" Wren yelped and staggered backward, trying to keeping himself from getting burned at first and then from falling over afterwards.

"Bébé!" Hyacinth exclaimed as she jumped forward and shot a Dazzling Gleam at the Cyndaquil. The Fire-type was hardly affected and retaliated with a Swift, star-shaped beams of Normal-type energy flying through the air to strike at the Flabébé.

"Petal Blizzard!" Wren exclaimed. The swirling vortex of flower petals and wind was conjured up in no time at all, swallowing up the Swift and sending the stars circling around Hyacinth even as they pressed inward, homing in on her continuously. Cyndaquil even got caught up in the whirlwind and yanked into the air. The flower petals filling the pink whorl sliced at the Fire Mouse from all angles but their power wasn't enough to really hurt it much.

By the time the attack had ended, the Swift had closed in and was covering the final bits of distance in a wild concentric path, still racing in increasingly tighter circles. In an effort to cage the Single Bloom Pokemon in and try to finish off it's attackers, Cyndaquil's body began to shine with bright red light as it raced toward Hyacinth, flames pouring off of it's body and it prepared for a massive attack. Burning Up it's inner flame, the Fire Mouse unleashed a hellish inferno around itself, intending to consume Hyacinth entirely while it still attempted to escape the Swift.

"Psychic!" Wren exclaimed, recalling that she had been capable of using the move before. Nodding and unleashing a wave of Psionic energy straight down, Hyacinth managed to use the wall of mental force to push the flames away and around herself but she was hit by the Swift at last when she stopped attempting to keep them at bay. She staggered in the air for a moment afterward as Cyndaquil heaved a heavy breath.

Wren pulled a Safari Ball from his pocket and threw it at the tiny Fire-type, afraid that it would either kill Hyacinth or work itself to death from exhaustion attempting to fight her.

When the ball successfully contained the small Fire-type, Wren heaved a sigh of relief and pulled the other one from his pocket to replace. Once he had Cyndaquil securely in his pocket, he'd release Carnivine back into the wild with a warning not to try coming back after him and his partner for at least a while. Carnivine didn't object.

||Ulla and Leon||

Ulla watched as the Pokeball shake several times as Minior floated over the Pokeball to watch it as well. They both then heard a click from the Pokeball. Minior was shocked as Ulla quickly picked up the Pokeball and the Minior. "We did it Minior! YOU did it! I'm so proud of you!" She said as she put the Pokeball in her bag. Minior had a crack in it's shell as it's light blue tone started to show a little. "Why don't we look around one more time and call it a day?"

Tristen went back walking off before the cat decided to get a little too affectionate with another Bounsweet. "Really, Litten, why don't you like coming out to places like this? This place was a lot better than that cave, and I got you out from that volcanic area which probably was unsafe anyways! Especially with all those Drampa..." Tristen said, recalling those dragons that even gave Magmar a run for his money, even barring the Shadow status. It made the boy cringe a bit; a sentiment that Litten didn't particularly care to share.

Tristen made his way on a path and looked on, trying to make sure that no area was not uncovered. As he started to push his way through some brush he felt his foot brush up against something. "Hmm? What the...?" Tristen started to move about, trying to see what he felt that was out of the ordinary.

"EX EGG CUTE!" Voices spoke in unison. Tristen jumped back instantly out of fright, just managing to avoid a burst of Stun Spore that came up out of the brush.

Out from the brush only a few seconds later, an Exeggcute came out of the brush, not too thrilled. "Uh oh...Litten?" Tristen looked back towards Litten, who was apparently curling up to take a nap. ".......come on! LITTEN!" The cat jumped, seeing the Exeggcute then started to get ready. As the Litten done so, the Exeggcute fired a bullet seed towards Tristen and Litten, making Tristen back off. Litten stood his ground, but the damage was rather nill. "Litten! Ember!" Tristen shouted.

Litten fired off its searing shots towards the Exeggcute, causing pretty harsh damage. The Exeggcute started to panic from the burning embers that fell upon it, then started firing off from each of the tops of its head various projectiles, a powerful Barrage. The Litten yelped out as the shots started to rain down upon the cat; it was a more painful shot than the bullet seed prior.

"Litten! Use Bite!" Tristen shouted. The cat rushed out of the Barrage and pounces the center egg, chomping down upon the egg shaped Pokemon, causing considerable damage to the egg. The bunch started to group upon each other to squeeze the cat in and toss the cat off as they flailed about. The Exeggcute then screeched out, causing such an Uproar, making the cat fold his ears back and Tristen grimace, clasping his hands up against his ears.

"Ember again! Stop that Exeggcute!" The cat unleashed another ember flurry, pelting the bunch and finally took it down. "I didn't think that an Exeggcute could take so much...come on, before we find any more like that."

Litten - 2 battles

-rolling for Pokemon-

"Look at that; it's a Litleo. It looks mad; Riolu, get ready for a fight."

Riolu appears out of it's pokeball with a grin on it's face. With a ready stance it's hype for the battle. The Litleo starts off with a Wild charge, it builds up electricity and charges forward. Riolu stands there waiting for it's opponent to get closer. waiting, and suddenly "Riolu now! Zen headbutt!" Jumping forward than bowing his head; Riolu stands there with focused power.

Litleo collides with a direct hit, and pushes Riolu back, "Shake it off Riolu, you got this!" Riolu looks up to see Litleo firing a flamethrower at him, Riolu quickly used Rocktomb, making a shield against the oncoming flames. "Great, job Riolu! Breaking out with strength Riolu reappears only to be met by a Litleo with flaming jawline. Landing onto of Riolu, Litleo bites down with flames raging. "RIOLU!" Riolu grabbed Litleo and sent it flying with Circle throw.

"Well that's one way to end a battle i guess, Great job none the less. Are you okay buddy?" Riolu looked up at Arkelos and than it's shoulder, slightly singed, but not severely it looks back up and smiles. "Let's be more careful buddy." He said looking down at his pokemon. "Let's see what else we can find, shall we?" Arkelos said with a laugh.

Walking along a trail, Arkelos spots a Carnivine over by some bushes. "Hmmm, i dont recall this pokemon. I dont want to pick a fight with one i dont know." he said being very quiet as they pass on by.

Keiko was interrupted in her search by a Numel who responded to her intrusion by spitting embers at her feet. "Oh, this should be easy for you, Azure!"] Keiko said for a smile. Azure ran up in front of her trainer, and got a second helping of Numel's Ember for her trouble. "Don't hold back! Respond with Bubblebeam!"

Azure inhaled deeply before spewing a stream of bubbles at Numel that pushed the Camel Pokemon back, inflicting a decent amount of damage. Numel wasn't going to take that lightly, however, and responded in kind by shaking the ground with Magnitude.

"You can handle this fight with no problem, Azure! Dampen his spirits with Rain Dance!" Keiko shouted, getting into the spirit of battle. Azure started bouncing around in a pattern calling Water-type energy from the sky to summon clouds together, the condensation forming rain that pelted the Safari Zone... well, at least the area that Azure and Numel were in, anyway. Numel danced around a bit before slamming the ground with his paw, creating an orb of mud thanks to Rainy Day and coating it with energy before pushing it toward Azure ala Earth Power.

Azure wasn't able to dodge Numel's attack completely and did take some damage from it, but she was far from fainting. "Okay, now channel the mud you made and funnel your attack through it! Use Muddy Water!"

Keiko smartly reached for her Hoverboard and got on it while Azure was conjuring water from below ground. Before long, it erupted from the rain-soaked mud like a geyser, gathering around Azure before leaping at Numel as though to drown him. Numel's lungs were clear of water by the time Muddy Watter faltered, but given that the Fire/Ground Pokemon was practically dunked in a Water-type move, Numel didn't have any strength to battle with after that.

Keiko cheered and patted Azure before putting her Hoverboard away and getting an umbrella out. It would be another minute or two before the downpour Azure summoned would clear up.
