Well naturally, you’re a boy. The screen asks you to input your name, so you tell it the truth: You’re Gavin Gilsung.

You wait for a few moments and then the realization dawns on you. That’s it. That’s the whole recording you’re going to get. You knew it would be difficult to solve the case of the missing criminal mastermind, but you were hoping to get a bigger clue from this whole thing. Oh well…

The screen asks you to state your intended Trainer Specialty. This kind of thing lets other trainers know how you interact with Pokemon. It lets them know what skills you intend to offer if they want to form a Team with you.

You decided to specialize in:
>Battling
>Catching
>Training
>Pokemon Breeding (which includes a better knowledge of Pokemon abilities, habitats, etc.)
>Item Master
>Casual (you don’t specialize in anything; you prefer friendship)

Back in trainer school, you decided to specialize in battling. You learned how to observe minute details of both Pokemon and trainer, and you learned that creativity does wonders on the battlefield. You think of yourself as a natural born leader, able to command any Pokemon towards victory. Unfortunately, you have yet to get your first Pokemon.

Today that changes.

After you’re done using the computer, you asked to wait in a small waiting room. A curtain separates you from the rest of the Pokemon center, and there’s nothing in here except a bench and a TV. You wait a few minutes in contemplation and nerves, until the TV finally turns on. On the other side of the screen is a cute nurse lady.

“To complete your examination, we will loan you a Pokemon from one of our custom options, and then you will have to catch your own. Afterwards, you will be challenged to a battle with that newly caught Pokemon. We will be watching and grading you from the start of the examination. After you complete your exam, and if you pass, we will print out your trainer card and hand it to you.

Normally we would only offer you the choice between Classic and Popular, but seeing as who your father is, you will also have the ability to choose the Expert package. Be warned: the three choices within the expert package are difficult for new trainers to handle.”

You catch yourself frowning at the mention of your dad. How they figured out who you were so quickly? There’s no way they have your face and name on file, is there? Regardless, you choose to focus on the situation at hand. The Classic option consists of Starter Pokemon usually handed out to beginning trainers in other regions. The Popular option lets you find out what Pokemon most people choose to capture. Wielding one might help you against those trainers in the future. And then there is the Expert option. You don’t want to look like a fool if you can’t handle any of the Pokemon there, but it is a tempting challenge.

You choose the:
>Classic option
>Popular option
>Expert option

>>244289
>Expert option

>>244289
>Expert option

>>244289
>>Expert option

Well the option is there, so you might as well take it. “I’ll choose the expert option,” you say with as much confidence as you can well up. If these people expect you to be a bigshot, then you won’t disappoint.

The Nurse nods her head. She is replaced by three images right next to each other. The first is a small, bipedal dragon-like Pokemon. It is primarily blue, with a big mouth primarily filled with sharp teeth. A red belly stretches from its abdomen to its lower jaw. The text under it reads, “Gible.”

The next image is of a small green reptilian Pokemon with rocky skin. It has a sharp spike on top of its head and black triangle marks underneath its red eyes. The text under it reads, “Larvitar.”

The last image is an odd one. It shows a Pokemon with one red eye and a metallic body that ends in a claw. The text under it reads, “Beldum.”

They don’t look so tough, you think. You choose:

>The shark-looking one, Gible
>The rocky reptilian, Larvitar
>The metallic one, Beldum

>>244361
>>The rocky reptilian, Larvitar
aw yiss

>>244361

After you’ve made your choice, you are asked to go to the front desk. You push the red curtain that separated you from the rest of building as you exit the small waiting room. When you get to the front desk, you are met not by the cute nurse who gave you your starting options, but some cool looking guy in a yellow button down and white lab coat.

“And you are?” You ask.

“I’m your instructor, Robert,” he says, holding his hand out to shake. You look at this guy suspiciously for a moment.

“And what happened to the nurse?”

“She’s busy with real stuff, so I get stuck doing this gig.” Robert looks past you contemplatively, then smiles in your direction. “But I don’t know, this stuff can be pretty fun. It’s probably exciting getting to catch your first Pokemon, no?”

You’re not sure whether you like this guy or not, but you decide to shake his hand anyways. “Yeah, I suppose,” you respond nonchalantly.

“Alright, so let’s get started!” He hands you a Pokeball. You look at it for a second before you click the middle button and throw it in the air. In a flash of red light, the little green reptilian Larvitar appears. It searches its surroundings cautiously before resting its eyes on you.

“Hi there,” you say, waving your hand awkwardly. It just crosses its arms and looks away. So much for that.

“Right, well, here are your options,” Robert, the male nurse, says. “We can teleport you to a forest, near a river, or in a cave. You will be supplied with 5 pokeballs and 2 potions. Your mission is to catch a Pokemon. Afterwards, we will teleport back and test you in a battle.”

“And you’ll be watching me the whole time?” You ask as you look at the small Pokemon near your feet. Its body is still facing you but it’s looking at the other people in the building. It’s actually pretty cute.

“Of course. I’ll be there to evaluate you and make sure nothing goes wrong.”

>”I’d like to go to the forest.”
>”I’d like to go near the river.”
>”Let’s go to the cave.”
>”Actually, could we go to another place instead?” [Specify place]

Any other questions you want to ask before you begin your exam?

“Good choice,” Robert says. He snaps his fingers twice and a yellow bipedal Pokemon appears next to him. It is sitting down with its tail curled around one of Robert’s legs. Larvitar makes a tiny yelp and takes a step back before deciding it should hold its ground. You really weren’t expecting something so… Timid.

“Are you ready?” Robert asks.

You hold your hand. “Give me a minute,” you say. You crouch down, making yourself appear less frightening. “Hey it’s alright, I’m not going to hurt you.” You hold out your hand, and for a moment there, it seemed like Larvitar was going to bite you. Instead it puts its tiny claw in your hand. “Alright,” you say, “now I’m ready.”

You feel a hand being placed on your shoulder. In an instant the world around you melts into a white canvas of nothingness. The next instant you find yourself on hard dirt. You feel slightly disoriented and kind of glad you had been crouching instead of standing since you quickly find yourself on the floor.

“It’s always disorienting your first ten times or so,” Robert says with a chuckle. He holds what looks like a timer in his hand. He hands you a box, and when you open it you find the pokeballs and potions you were promised. “Alright Gavin, the test has officially started. You can begin whenever.”

You start by checking your surroundings. In front of you is the entrance to a cave. All around it is brush and trees, with a trail that definitely leads into a forest. So this is their test? It’s not that bad so far.

>You start by checking your bag. What supplies did you bring again?
>The very first thing you should do is find out what moves Larvitar should know.
>Fuck that, there’s a cave that needs exploring NOW.
>Fuck that, this forest trail looks cozy.

>>244572
>>You start by checking your bag. What supplies did you bring again?
>>The very first thing you should do is find out what moves Larvitar should know.

Testing... 1, 2, 3... Testing...

4chan is giving me so many problems right now. It probably thinks I'm an aussie shitposter.

You start by taking your backpack off and putting it on the ground. Just a couple of hours ago, you woke up late and you were in a hurry. Your mom handed you your bag as you were leaving the front door. If it wasn't for her, you would've forgotten it. You silently thank her.

You barely made your appointment.

Inside your bag, you find a flaahlight, rope, spare change of clothes, and a note from your mom telling you to behave. You make sure Robert can't see the note as you gently place it on your bag.

(1/3)

Next you turn to your temporary partner-in-crime. Larvitar is sniffing at a piece of grass. You realize you don't actually know what it's capable of. "Hey Robert," you say. "You wouldn't happen to know what Larvitar can do, do you?"

"What do you mean?" Robert asks you, with a confused look on his face. "Didn't you bring a pokedex? They're pretty cheap nowadays."

"No..." You say. "Not all of us have money to throw around, Robert. Some of us need to become trainers for a living." In truth, you didn't even think to purchase one.

(2/?)

You add that to the mental list of things to eventually get, right next to friends and skills. Either that or you'll get an omnivice. That way you can just download a pokedex app and have everything stored in one device. "So are you going to help me or not?"

"Right..." Robert says. He makes a quick note on the small notepad he's carrying before taking out a strange red device and pointing it at Larvitar. "Looks like it has some good move. It knows Bite, Leer, Sandstorm, Dragon Dance, and Dig." You whistle in appreciation. Yeah, with this guy catching (or defeating) something will be a piece of cake.

(3/4)

"Thanks Robert."

"No problem," he says with a light smile.

With that settled, you...
>Decide to explore the cave.

You take out your flashlight and announce, "I'm going in." The entrance to the cave starts out steep and uneven and the daylight quickly fades as you go further inside. You're very glad you have that flashlight. When you look behind you, you see Larvitar keeping pace. Within a few meters is Robert with his own flashlight. At least you look prepared.

When you look back to see where you're headed, a swarm of zubat rush at you. You duck and feel Larvitar's claws closely gripping your pants. You're not sure how Robert is faring.

When the swarm left, you find yourself one on one with a zubat. Larvitar meekly steps in front of you. It turns to look at you, awaiting orders.

"Dragon dance, go!"

Larvitar turns to face the opponent and begins a clumsy yet sort of graceful dance. There's a few kicks there and some... Shaking? But Larvitar is hopping around more. It definitely looks faster.

The Zubat swoops in to attack, its fangs glowing a dim green. It hits but doesn't seem to do much. You're not sure what move that was, but it didn't seem to do much.

Now what?
>Bite, time to go on the offense

>>245192
I'd hope for something better than a fuckin' zubat.

>>245192
Something else. Why would anyone want to start with a zubat of all things?

In my defense, Crobat is no slouch. But yeah, we should probably look for something else.

>>245155
>>245192
You give it some thought but decide that you rather not start your journey with a Zubat. How lame is that?

"Now use bite," You command. Larvitar was waiting for that order. It rushes at the Zubat, going in for the kill.

Roll me a 1d100 guys. Best of 3.

Larvitar rushes forward faster than you expected from such a heavy rock type. At least you assume it's heavy.

As it runs forward, it actually jumps on the wall, and uses it as a spring board to jump over the Zubat, surprising both the Zubat and yourself. It lands then quickly jumps again to bite the Zubat from behind. With the Zubat between its teeth, Larvitar starts shaking its head viciously.

You really weren't expecting that. There's even a malicious glint in its eyes. When it finally let's go, the Zubat doesn't move.

You...
>Congratulate Larvitar for its excellent combat skills.

>>245274

"Wow, uh, good job partner," you say. You hope that came out sincere.

Having succeeded in that battle, the Larvitar quickly moves to your side and grips your pant leg again. Looks like this cute little guy has a fiercer combative side.

You pet Larvitar gently then continue down the cave. The further you go, the less steep it becomes. The bumps in the path smoothen out. Suspiciously so.

But before you can contemplate further...

You are confronted by a shiny quadruped with four stubby legs and a large round head.

"Aron," you hear Robert whisper behind you. The sound of his voice makes you think this must be a rare Pokemon.

With a smile, you tell Larvitar to go forward. It assumes battling position and does those same hops from before. At least it'll probably go first.

You tell it to...
>Bite, go for the flinch chance
>Leer, intimidate it to drop its defenses
>Sandstorm, to whither it down?
>Dragon Dance again! Get crazy fast and strong
>Dig, it looks like a steel type so you'll probably do lots of damage

You're gonna make this Pokemon your bitch. But first, you might end up catching it.

"Larvitar, let's try Leer!" You hear it giggle maliciously as its eyes glow. It seemed to work. The Aron instinctively hid its head underneath its body.

"Ha! Look at that. It flinched," you remark.

"Nay, that was a harden," Robert says. He stands next to you, obviously interested in the battle. You're just happy to have two flashlights illuminating the battle.

>Bite, time to show Aron our power

Have Larvitar use Dragon Dance to get behind it. I think it's faster than Aron, so if it can get behind it, I think we can get it to flinch if we coordinate it with a bite as well.

"Alright Larvitar, let's try to repeat what happened last time. Dragon Dance then get behind your opponent!" Larvitar begins its dance again, but it looks less clumsy. The kicks and shakes have a certain rhythm to them. It's still not the most graceful, but it actually looks like a dance now.

Larvitar starts running towards the Aron but Aron starts running too. "Looks like it's using headbutt," you hear Robert say.

"Alright Larvitar! Wait until the last moment and jump over it then bite it from behind!"

Alright lads, roll me 1d100+10. Best of three.

>>245432
Goddamn. You've never seen such grace before. It was like Larvitar had trained to do this maneuver its whole life and for a brief moment, it reached perfection.

The Aron clumsily fell forward and rolled, exposing its belly; it was caught by surprise. In fact you were too. Larvitar capitalized on Aron's momentary vulnerability to unleash a powerful bite.

This is your chance...

[I'm combining all these rolls for hilarity, but in all honesty there probably shouldn't have been a roll. You'll get a minor penalty, but that's all.]

You totally got this in the bag. There is nothing, no way that this could go wrong. Excitedly, you pull a pokeball from your bag. Your heart is racing. This is your moment.

But you were too excited. You misjudged the distance. The cave was too dark. You didn't have a full breakfast. You... Will find other excuses to cover up your own blunder.

The pokeball you threw actually hit Larvitar, knocking it on its back. Aron squealed and was able to get free. You curse as Robert starts to die of laughter next to you.

Frustrated and embarrassed, you reach into your bag and end up throwing a potion. And of course it lands on the enemy. Fuck! You facepalm as the Aron wiggles with pleasure from being healed.

Half heartedly, embarrassed, you manage to find another pokeball and just kind of gently toss it. It hits the Aron and wiggles a few times before sparkling. You did it. You caught a Pokemon.

You...

>>245478
>>245503
this, actually.

>>245487
>>245488
>>245490
>>245497
You briefly consider suicide and a career change, but that can come later. You lightly jog to Aron's pokeball to pick it up then go to Larvitar's side.

It glares at you. "Look buddy," you start, but it stops you with a bunch of angry growl whines. "Yeah, I know I messed up," you say, "but you, you were brilliant! I've never seen something so cool, and I watch a lot of TV. With the right trainer, you could make it all the way to the Pokemon league."

Larvitar briefly considers your words. "So what do you say buddy? We cool?" You hold out your fist, and after a brief moment, Larvitar hesitantly fistbumps you. Looks like that was its first time fist bumping.

With that you smile and proclaim, "I caught my first Pokemon!" You hear a little cheer from Larvitar and then hear Robert clapping. He says, "Congradu-" before an intense shake throws you both to the ground. You accidently drop your flashlight and Robert must have done the same, because you find yourselves in complete darkness.

When the shaking stops, the only thing you see is a small glint further in the cave.

You...
>Go towards it.
>Fuck that, feel your way back.
>Maybe those flashlights aren't broken? Try to find them.
>Other

>>245520
>>Go towards it.
fuck flashlights.

>Go towards it.
We go forward with our shining optimism to guide us! (fuck flashlights)

>>245525
>>245530
You decide to go towards the light. A distant part of your mind bemoans the loss of the flashlights, but you figure your mom will forgive you for losing it on your first day as trainer.

As you crawl forward, you stumble into Larvitar. It helps you stand up, and you decide to carry it as you both cautiously make your way to the light. It's slow going but you feel confident that you can handle whatever is on the other side.

That is until you actually see what's on the other side. You enter a large cavern along one of the higher entrances, giving you a good vantage point to see the rest of the cavern.

Below and in the center is a huge black tower, and standing at its base is none other than Professor Maple herself! She's surrounded by some really tough looking Pokemon too. A Golem, Meacham, Gengar, and Alakazam.

What did you stumble into?

[Alright guys, that's it for tonight. I appreciate every single one of you, and I apologize for the technical and grammatical errors.]

Fuck. That'll be dealt with tomorrow.

So far we've got Steel/Rock, maybe Rock/Dark, and Fire. An Eevee, for either Psychic or Water, would be great (personally I would prefer Espeon). After that... Maybe an Axew? It's a really solid dragon, and one of the best phys attackers in the game. (also my favorite Pokemon but that's beside the point.)

I'd really like a Megamom, the Nidos, Totodile, Scyther, Heracross. The cool stuff, honestly.

also hoping for totodile. He's one of my favorite starters. Maybe also a chimchar and a chespin. We shouldn't ask for too many, though, guys, because either he'll avoid giving us those pokemon since we're expecting them or we won't be pleasantly surprised at all when we get a pokemon that we like.

>>246073
Honestly, I'm more inclined to keep the Pokemon encounters randomish, rather than trying to stuff in everyone's preferred Pokemon. Half the fun is trying to make the best of what you can get really.

oui

So what do you guys think the MC looks like?

>>246380
I imagine him as having sort of wavy chestnut hair that passes his ears and aqua-Brown eyes. Maybe with a cool(MAGA) hat.

>>246380
Y'know, OP, I don't think anyone would blame you for starting the quest early.

>>246380
>>247117
Agreed. Hell, people would probably praise you. Please OP?

I'll sick your poke-DICK

>>246380
Also, I think that the MC's looks are up to you. I think he should stand out more than the latest MC's have, though. They don't look as iconic anymore. The best was probably either red or ruby.

>>247117
>>247133
I would start early but I'm babysitting a two year old. What kind of two year olds don't like watching TV? Honestly, if I take my eyes off him for a second, he'll grab literally anything. Sorry guys.

>>247411
Eevee and Totodile when

>>247485
Don't jinx it you fucktard.
>>247411
You should just shake him until he falls asleep.

>>247411
Side note, do you think you could throw in a decent number of the decent pokemon from the newer gens? They have some good ones and I don't think they get recognized enough in threads like this.

>>247496
I got ya, senpai. Definitely gonna include the chance to catch gen 5 & 6 mons. I won't include any of the gen 7 guys until the games come out though.

>>247549
I gotcha famalam. Speaking of which, the legendaries for sun and moon look really kickass to me. Way cooler than Palkia and Dialga.

Fuck. All I need is a good bad guy Team name. What do you guys think? Team Lumious? Any suggestions?

You make sure to go prone and it takes you a few moments to verify that that is in fact Professor Maple. She looks just like the recording you saw earlier. Larvitar appears by your side with a serious look on its face. Looks like it can sense the strength of Professor Maple’s Pokemon from here.

You do a double take. If Larvitar is standing next to you, then what did you grab? A quick inspection shows you grabbed a large rock that was roughly Larvitar-shaped. You’re glad Robert didn’t see that. Speaking of which, where did the bastard go? Did he not follow you? Could he still be stuck in the tunnels? Fuck.

You look back towards the tower – no, spiral – and see that Professor Maple is giving orders to her henchmen. The uniforms they wear look suspiciously similar to Team Luminous, but you’re pretty sure they were disbanded a few years back.

You decide to…
>Go look for Robert.
>Stay where you are and do a headcount for what you’re up against.
>Sneak down so you can hear Professor Maple’s orders
>Other

[The beauty of having a previously disbanded evil bad guy team is that the name could have changed. So if anyone has a different suggestion, I'm all ears.]

Robert can probably take care of himself. He was assigned to take care of you in case anything went wrong, so he’d need to be good. You have more important matters to take care of.

You can hardly believe it; your heart is pounding so loudly against your chest you think someone might be able to hear it. It’s like you’re in one of those detective crime busting shows you watch. You can almost picture yourself getting a codename and being cool and stuff. But you can’t do that if you don’t know what the evil bad guy (girl?) is doing.

You look around and there’s two paths that lead down. One is safer but with less shadows. It would probably more slow going but there’s no chance of you falling and hurting yourself. The other option is to climb down in a place that isn’t well illuminated. That might be a tad bit difficult.

So, you…
>Take the safe path, even if it’s slower.
>Fuck caution, this is time sensitive. Try to climb down.

Why do this alone when you have Pokemon to help you? You retreat back into the dark tunnel for a moment to release Aron, casting a dim red glow. You fail to see Robert but he is probably further down or something. You tell it to follow you back into the light. It does so.

“Hey Aron, nice to meet ya,” you whisper. You hold out your hand, and Aron gives you one of its stubby legs to shake. “Hey buddy, could you help guide me through that path?” You point to the relatively smooth path. It even has rails and columns on it. “We need to stay hidden because this place has a lot of bad people in it, and we really don’t want to be caught. That means we’ll try to stay in the shadows, but we also don’t want to take too long.” It nods its head.

You turn to Larvitar. “And I’m going to need your help to scout ahead. You’re going to dig around and if you see anyone coming, you’ll dig back and warn me ahead of time.” It also nods its head before muzzling towards you. This little guy (girl?) sure got affectionate real fast.

“Alright guys, the most important thing is to not get caught. Let’s go!” You conclude your whispered speech.

Roll me 1d20+8 (+4 from being cool and +4 from getting help). Best of three. Crit 1s won’t count.

You are one with the shadows and even more importantly, one with your Pokemon. You feel like an expert spy as you move and roll from one hiding spot to the next. (Except you don’t have a box to hide under.) With Aron’s help, you find all these small but good hiding spots and Larvitar does an excellent job of warning you of any bad guys well before they advance.

As you head down the path, you take occasional glances at the bad guy’s operation. It seems like they’re mostly moving boxes here and there, and most seem to be cages of some sort. You were never into the watching the news, so you’re not sure why these guys were considered bad people. They didn’t exactly steal Pokemon like other well-known criminal organizations. All you remember is that for, like, a week straight people couldn’t stop celebrating that the bad guys were taken down by a group of heroes.

Anyways, your thoughts are interrupted by a (now) familiar push from the ground. You signal to Aron and it quickly locates a hole in the ground big enough for you both to squeeze into. Despite the general smoothness of the path, most of it was left rough and untouched. Judging by the tire marks, the smooth path is primarily used for vehicles.

Two groups of those bad guys convene nearby. One group (of 3) salutes to the other group (of 2) and ask, “Commander, how are preparations going?”

“Well,” the Commander responds. “We will be able to depart soon.” With that said, he and whoever he was with walk up toward the tunnel you came through.

“Finally,” one of the grunts say. “I can’t wait to see the sun again.”

“C’mon Cole, it wasn’t that bad. We’ve been here, what? A week? Quit your complaining you pansy-ass faggot.” That said, they continue to complain as they depart.

You finally find yourself at the bottom of the cavern. It looks like there aren’t that many patrols in this area. They probably weren’t expecting anyone to infiltrate whatever they’re doing. You don’t see Professor Maple anywhere, but you can’t exactly see the bottom of the black spire from here. You could examine those cages you saw earlier, but there’s also some kind of crudely constructed building nearby you could try looking into.

You…
>Decide to head straight for the black spire. Time and all.
>Decide it is better to get some information. Check out those cages and boxes.
>Think that building is calling to you. It’s got to be important to be down here.
>Do something else?

No use getting close without information. You have Larvitar scout ahead as usual and you use Aron as an extra set of eyes as you make your way towards the containers. You only have to avoid one patrol guard as you make your way to the cages. As you hide between two huge shipping containers, you hear the patrol guard’s radio saying something about potential intruders. Are there others around?

That doesn’t matter right now. You get close to the boxes and try to open one but they are nailed shut and you don’t see any crowbars nearby. Besides, you’re not sure you can open these boxes without making too much noise. Instead, you head towards the cages. Each one is about two meters tall by one meter wide, and you see a variety of cave dwelling pokemon inside. There’s a blue bipedal pokemon with a large mouth with yellow lips and two circular ears with alternating pink and purple rings. It is gagged and bound. In another cage you see a bipedal pokemon with a dark purple body and two gemstone-like eyes, but that’s all you see from the dark cage as it backs away from you. In another cage is a blue quadruped with various spiny, crystal-like features jutting out of its body. You sense a pattern. All these pokemon are bound, unable to free themselves, and there’s an unmistakable look of fear in each of their eyes. Just what are the bad guys planning?

You duck between two cages and stay silent as another patrol guard passes by. You silently thank Aron for biting your pant leg to warn you. As you continue your inspection, you come by a panel. It looks like if you mess around with it enough, you can set all these pokemon free, though you’re not sure you could sneak out in that chaos. That and you still have no clue what Professor Maple’s grand evil scheme is.

You…

There’s no way you can leave these guys here to suffer. Even if it isn’t the smartest thing to do, you know you wouldn’t feel right unless you gave them a fighting chance. A plan quickly formulates in your mind. You tell Larvitar and Aron to ask these guys to create some mischief for you – to get back at their captors and help you at the same time. As they begin to do that, you silently bemoan that you don’t have a way to take a picture of this cruelty. Perhaps you should’ve checked on Robert after all. You could’ve jacked his devices, especially since you accidently forgot yours at home.

You lightly slap yourself. It’s time to focus. You begin diddling and experimenting with the control panel. At first only one cage opens, but as you begin to make sense of the device, more and more open up. The captured pokemon are cautious at first but as more and more step away from their imprisonment, you see them gain confidence.

It doesn’t take long for someone to raise the alarm, and then everything goes to hell. Loud sirens pierce the relative silence, and red emergency lights bathe the whole complex. You see some grunts struggle, battling the wave of freed Pokemon. Now’s your chance.

You…
>Head towards the tower. Might as well see what Professor Maple is up to.
>Fight with the released Pokemon. Maybe you can make this riot more than a distraction.
>Did all you could. It’s probably best to live another day and escape with your life.

You start running towards the building you saw earlier. You hope it’s abandoned now that there’s a huge intruder alarm. A quick glance confirms that Larvitar is keeping pace but it seems that Aron is lagging behind. You recall it to its pokeball and keep moving. There’s no time for caution now.

>>248754
>>248667
As you move, you see a few of the freed Pokemon followed you. You hear a grunt say, “Hey, who are you?!” before you see them. You turn towards the voice and see 3 grunts heading in your direction. You quickly order a sandstorm from Larvitar then shout out “Nidoking, get them!” The Pokemon that followed you move towards the enemy. Hopefully that creates a good distraction to keep them off you.

Your run turns into a sprint.

When you get to the building, it looks more like a shack put together in about an hour. A sufficient amount of force could probably topple a wall. You’re about to head inside when you realize you lost track of Larvitar. Your wild heartbeat turns frantic. Did Larvitar get lost in its own sandstorm? Did the grunts manage to capture it?

You’re about to head back when you feel a familiar claw on your pants leg. “Damn dude, you’re a fucking ninja,” you say loud enough to be heard over the alarm. With partner now nearby, you head inside.

It smells pretty bad in here. Like sweat and mildew and something else? All you see are a bunch of shitty bunk bed cots strewn around in a random fashion. Where these guys living here for a whole week? “What? Couldn’t they bother to build proper shelter?”

“I resent that,” you hear from somewhere inside. A female grunt reveals herself. “So you’re the intruder! Prepare yourself!” She sends out a light-blue quadruped with darker blue patches, red eyes, and large, spiny ears.

Larvitar takes its rightly place in front of you.

You tell it to…
>Bite, start with a good offense.
>Leer, intimidation time.
>Sandstorm, make like a ninja.
>Dragon dance, just keep buffing up.
>Dig, surprise them.

“Larvitar, dig!” You say, as the female grunt simultaneously says, “Nidorina, poison sting!” You smile as your Larvitar quickly plows through the dirt. Some part of your mind is thankful that this place doesn’t have a concrete floor. That would’ve made digging more difficult and time consuming.

Your smile fades in the split second it takes you to look at the female grunt’s face. She’s smirking maliciously. You almost notice it too late. The glowing purple stingers that Larvitar dodged are still heading towards you. Your body reacts before you can fully comprehend what happened; it throws you sideways into a dodge roll and you manage to avoid hitting one of the bunk bed cots.

“Larvitar, use the bunk beds to hit them both!” The surprise on the female grunt’s face was worth almost getting poisoned. Cots are suddenly toppled on top of her and her pokemon. She yelps in surprise. Heh. If she weren’t trying to kill you, that would’ve been cute.

Larvitar pops out of the ground near you, ready for another command. You can’t really see your opponent under that mess, but you know you can’t underestimate her.

You tell Larvitar to…
>Bite, it could get the enemy to flinch.
>Leer, it should probably work through that mess.

tell me not of our magics friend. I was there in one of our finest hours.

It is my firm belief that one should not cross RNGesus (random be our games) and our lord Kek. True is it that Kek bless us with his holy digits, but the rolling of dice and similar gambits are over seen by entirely different entities. One should not anger either when it comes to these matters, for as you say, Kek is fickle, similarly is RNGesus.

I by no means claim that RNGesus is superior to Kek, nor visa versa, but each has their realms friend. The crossing of those realms could be catastrophic.

You half expect another barrage of purple stingers, but when they don’t appear you still feel it’s best to be cautious. “Larvitar, time to go ninja.” Without needing the full command, it starts to stir the dirt in the room into a cloud, and it builds up into a fully-fledged sandstorm. It stings your eyes, and you can no longer see Larvitar. You hope that’s a good thing.

You move to hide behind one of the fallen cots. If you’re not in the last place they saw you, then you’re probably safer. That’s assuming they can’t currently see you from where they’re buried.

You hear several explosions outside. You’re not sure if that’s a good or bad thing. You still don’t see the grunt or her pokemon, but it’d be dumb of you to assume that she’s out cold already. You quickly command Larvitar to use dragon dance; you regret not being able to see it. It probably actually looks graceful now. The image of a Larvitar doing ballerina stuff pops into your mind. You try and fail not to giggle.

Huh. Still nothing.

You tell Larvitar to…
>Get in close and Bite, there’s no way they’re done.
>Leer, it should probably work through that mess.
>Sandstorm, make it even harder to see.
>Dragon dance, nothing will be able to stand up to you.

You weren’t actually expecting to get into a conflict. How long ago had this been a simple test? Less than an hour? And now you’re fighting for your life against a known terrorist and criminal organization. Gods, you hope you survive so you can brag to literally everyone about this.

>>249116
Still, you want to survive, and that means being cautious. You entertain the thought of running away, but that wouldn’t make for a good story. No. You want to beat this grunt and help the intruders. You want to beat the bad guys and prove that you can do this sort of thing.

But first you need to actually beat her. “Larvitar dig!” Now he, no her, no it(?) can wait in the ground for the upcoming attack. You hear another explosion outside. This one was closer.

>>249159
Then there’s a huge explosion in this room. The ground erupts, spewing a ton of sand out. You barely make out the silhouettes of two pokemon in the air. One strikes before the other can react and is thrown violently across the room.

You instinctively cover your face as a wave of sand envelops you. When you finally shake free of the sand and dirt, you see the sandstorm is gone and Larvitar is standing near a hole in the center of the room. Any furniture has been pushed towards the walls, and you’re just glad none of it hit you. You stumble towards Larvitar and see that it’s looking at something. No, not something. It’s looking at the female grunt (unconscious) and her fainted Nidorina.

“Good job, Larvitar!” You yell over the alarm. Huh, it sounds louder. You look up to see a hole in the roof. That’s what must be letting outside noises into the place. It beams at you with pride, takes a final look at its defeated opponents, and then goes back to its usual place near your leg.

You decide to check around the room for stuff, but you also want to find out more about this female grunt chick. Your eyes turn to Larvitar. It’s been a competent companion so far. You crouch down. “Hey buddy, I need you to do me a favor. You see that bad lady we just beat up together?” It whines at you. “I mean that you beat up and I helped a little?” It nods. “Well I need you to look for something on her. Something with human writing or a picture with her face.” Larvitar looks at you with a confused expression. “I’m trusting ya, bud. Can you do it?” It nods its head and heads over to the fainted villain.

Is it wagging its tail as it walks? Fuck that’s cute. You lightly slap yourself for the second time (third time?) today. You begin searching through the rubble. The first thing you encounter in what looks like a storage locker with a busted lock. Score! You manage to find a Team Invictus uniform and two pokeballs. Huh, that looks like the uniform the grunt chick was wearing. You suppose that’s a pretty invaluable find at the moment.

>>249252
>>249282
You search around some more and happen to find a great ball lying around. Nice!

>>249278
You also find what looks like drugs? Oh wait, it says protein on the label. This could be useful.

>>249287
Holy shit is that real? No way. You find a CD looking device on the ground. A TM? NICE! (You're not really sure what move it is though.)

>>249309
With that done, you turn to find that Larvitar just dragged the female grunt to you. “T-thanks bud,” you say. You’ve never looked through a girl’s pockets before. Is this wrong somehow? I mean, she did try to kill you. You shrug and look through her pockets anyway. You actually don’t find much, which is pretty disappointing. You see a piece of paper in the rubble and a pen a few feet away. You quickly scribble a note and your phone number and leave it in her pocket.

Now, you decide to…
>Put that uniform on. It’ll be so much easier to blend in.
>Nah, what if you’re mistaken for one of them? You’ll keep it just in case though.
AND
>It’s time to head to the tower. You’ve been postponing it long enough.
>Actually, it’s time to leave. You’ve done enough good here.
>Fuck that, you need to make sure the Pokemon you released are okay.
>Other

[I decided to be nice. For kek.]

Any drawfags feel like drawing the protag?

We gotta see if that Sableye is down to join team Sand ninja!

>>249379
I second that notion. Would love a drawing of the MC I could use for every new thread.

>>249381
Why would you check on the animals that were abused by a criminal organization wearing their uniform? We'll just wind up getting attacked!

Thank kek for you sir

You originally came down here to spy on Professor Maple, but you kind of got side-tracked. Still, you feel a responsibility to those Pokemon you freed. What’s the point of beating the big bad villain if people end up forgetting all the little people that got hurt during the war?

You stash the uniform in your bag. You’re sure it’ll be a big help. As you step outside, you stand in shock. It looks completely different, like an actual war is being waged. You see craters and smoke litter the battlefield and there are people and Pokemon on the ground. They aren’t moving? You hear explosions in the distance, and a fireball lands 5 meters next to you, creating another smoking crater. Shit.

You run towards the empty cages, hoping that the Pokemon you released are okay. You pause for a moment; should you check up on those around you? You’re about to keep running when you spot a familiar face hiding in a cover hole you would’ve used had you needed to continue sneaking. It was that blue bipedal pokemon with the large mouth and yellow lips. Its weird round ears are near its head, obviously signaling fear.

You cautiously approach it, but it seems to recognize you. It moves from its hiding spot to greet you. “Hey there,” you say, but it doesn’t respond. Okay then. “Listen, I know you’re scared, but I need you step up and be a hero. I know you can do it.” It nods its head. Good. “You see those people and pokemon just lying there? I need you to pick them up and take them to that shack where they’ll be safe.” It shakes its head in fear. You release air you didn’t realize you were holding in. Gently, you grab the Pokemon’s hand. “Listen, they need you. And I know that you can do this. You’re braver than you think.” Larvitar says something in agreement. The pokemon looks at Larvitar then you. It nods its head and goes towards the unconscious bodies.

With that taken care of, you continue running. Next thing you know, you’re on the ground with something cold on your neck. There’s a small, bipedal pokemon with a rounded black and red head with a silvery blade extending from the front. Instead of hands or claws, it just has knives, and one of them can kill you any moment now. You see Larvitar being confined somehow in the periphery of your vision.

“You have 5 seconds to tell me who you are and what you’re doing here,” you here a gruff voice say. Shit. Your mind starts working overtime.
