You are Percy, a Pokémaniac on his way to become a Professional Pokémon trainer!

Your team so far consists of:
Houndour
Mimikyu
Whismur
Vulpix (Alolan)

Last time you went to get some medical attention because you were shanked by Pokémon, you also BTFO a teenage girl, helped out a Smoochum, got a new teammate, Mimikyu got lucky, you talked about Pokémon reproduction habits, tried your hand at cooking again and got challenged to a fight by some rich kid named Dick:

Last day before the Rookie tournament!

>Friday: Morning
After teaching Whismur “Ice Beam” you told Vulpix she should try to learn it on her own, since her species can learn it naturally, besides it could be good way to start training if she wanted to battle. She seemed down with the idea, even teasing Whismur that she wouldn’t even need to use that “weird disc”, Houndour told Whismur to just ignore her.
It’s your last day of school, everyone is on high spirits! People on your grade are all discussing their upcoming journey plans. And everyone else is just excited for summer vacation. Since there’s really nothing left to do, the teachers and faculty just let students do what they please. Some events are planned by the faculty and the students themselves as to make the day a little more fun.
You usually skipped this day, since you preferred to hang out with your Pokémon friends but today you have some business to attend to.

There he is, standing on one side of the School battle grounds, seems like he has been waiting for you for a while. By his side are the Shiny Bagon who has attracted an even bigger crowd of onlookers than usual, and Cacnea, now sporting a sick pair of “Black Glasses”. He seems to take notice of your Vulpix, for a second he show some worry on his face but Bagon looks back at him assuring him he can take her.

Dick:I see you came prepared, but an Ice type won’t save you! Ready to face defeat Williams?

Thanks to Houndour training and prior experience he manages to anticipate where Ankhati is going to move and hits him with his fire attack!

>Houndour takes an EVASIVE approach

Cacnea got pretty hurt by the attack, but he hasn't slowed down a bit, Dick seems to be planning something

>What’s next?
>>
>>2833167

>>

Hmmm. Knowing he has Double Team, that likely means he has either two Dark Type moves, and one Grass Type move, or three Dark Type moves.

May as well get that poison damage started early.

Evade, keep distance and hit it with a smog.

I don't think enemies will be limited to four moves since we're not limited either.
>>
>>2833179
Just like your Pokémon, other trainers mons aren't limited to 4 moves like in the game

So expect some bullshit in the near future
>>
>>2833186
Oh right, forgot there's no limit on moves. Well, we know it has at least two Dark Type moves, anyways.
>>
>>2833183

Dick:Tch. Sandstorm now!

The Cacnea starts spinning as fast as he cans, lifting lots of dirt from the battleground, suddenly the sand tornado grows big enough to cover the whole battleground.

>A Sandstorm kicks in!
Cacnea’s movements are even harder to read now! The Pokémon moves naturally though the dirt, making him even harder to hit

>Ankhati´s Sand Veil raised his evasiveness!

Houndour is still going on the evasive, trying to hit the Grass Pokémon with “Smog”

>CRIT FAIL

Houndour fires his Poison Attack missing completely!
He tries to get near the center of the Sandstorm just to get hurt by the flying rocks and debris.

>Houndour got buffeted by the Sandstorm!

Your Pokémons is trying to follow the perpetually moving Cacnea to assure the next hit, but the grass Pokémon seems to be one step ahead of him each time. This gives Dick an opportunity.

Dick: Cacnea use leech seed!

Before he gets a chance to evade the seeds scattered by Ankhati grow and wrap tightly around Houndour

>Houndour was seeded!

>>2833263

Would it be possible to use Ember on those seeds to burn them?
>>
>>2833281
Huh, can we do that? (Also, why does this dude get two attacks on us?)
>>
>>2833290
He gets two attacks cause we crit-failed.
>>
>>2833290
Probably cause we crit failed. The benefit of this dice system is that we only need 1 pass to succeed with our command but 0 passes screws us over extra hard.
>>
>>2833296
Fair enough.
>>
>>2833281
>>2833290
>>2833281
Yes, but you won't hit Cacnea during that turn using the same Ember tho
>>
>>2833299
Well I mean we partially succeed on one success, we fixed that in the first thread since a full success on one successful dice roll seemed a bit too easy, but I see your point.
>>
>>2833307
Figured as much. Do we just need to move away from the Leech Seeds to stop the drain effect, or is it constant wherever we go?
>>
>>2833307
I'm still up for that, as long as we can do as >>2833276 says and do so while trying to run out of the sandstorm.
>>
>>2833263
>evade
>burn off seeds with ember
Better in the long run, both for getting rid of the seed and waiting out the sandstorm.
>>
>>2833317
It's constant, I was going for the Manga approach where they wrap around their target not letting go

You instruct Houndour to try and get out of the Sandstorm and burn the Leech Seeds when he has the chance! Your Pokémon starts running towards the edge of the battlefield looking for a spot where he isn’t constantly hurt, but now Ankhati is following him behind

Percy: Look out!

Dick:Ankhati use Sand Attack!

The Cacnea throws a fistful of dirt directly to Houndour’s eyes, your Pokémon manages to avoid it and make some distance between him and the Cacnea, still, he hasn’t managed to get rid of the Leech seeds, nor get out of the Sandstorm

>Houndour get’s buffeted by the sandstorm! The leech seeds sap Houndour’s energy and heals Ankhati slightly!

>Sandstorm count: 2nd turn

>Houndour is still in good condition to fight, but signs of damage and tiredness are starting to show

What now?

>>2833393

The sandstorm should spread around the smog and hit it easier
>>
>>2833404
>Evade, and continue to try and get out of the Sandstorm
>Use Ember to burn the Leech Seeds
Would like to use Smog, but the longer these Leech Seeds are around the more of an advantage Cacnea is going to be at.
>>
>>2833393
>Evade and Ember
Same as before.
>>
>>2833393
Cacnea should also be getting hit by the sandstorm by the way its just Grass not like it's going to matter very much though
>>
>>2833414
>>2833417

"Let's try again, burn those seeds and get out of the Storm or we will be in trouble!"

Dick:Ankhati, Growth!

This should give you a chance

>CRIT FAIL

Houndour finally finds a place where the Sandstorms isn't as bad as the rest of the arena. He runs towards it but the leech seed has started to tire him out and can't avoid being hit by the sand.

But before he gets to safety he gets him with a Poison Sting, it doesn't do much damage but it's deep on Houndour skin. He gives you a painful look and you know what he means.

>Houndour has been Poisoned!
>Houndour gets Buffeted by the Sandstorm!
>The Leech seed saps Houndour energy

Houndour doesn't look too good, he still can go on, but not much longer

Cacnea should've be buffeted by the Sandstorm too, but you guess that the energy he regains from the leech seeds keeps him fine inside the raging sand.

>Sandstorm count: 3rd turn

What will you do?
>>
>>2833533
Alright, I think it's finally time to be bit cheap.
>Use an Item: Potion
We haven't used an item this entire quest, and with Houndour exhausted and injured I think it's as good a time as any to finally use these items we've been carrying around.

We can also use the Oran berry/potion we have also we can use roar
>>
>>2833533
Roar and swap out his Cacnea. Then swap out Houndour to get rid of the leech seed.

>>2833545
Seems rude to be That Guy who uses potions.

This isn't a serious match by any stretch; winning isn't vital. Better to save those items for when we meet Pokemon that need them.

>Partial pass!

Houndour plants his paws firmly onto earth and stands his ground. The pain fuels his anger and goddam he is pissed!

Dick: Cacnea use Needle Arm and finish this!

Houndour does not move, instead, he waits until Cacnea is as close as possible.

He may have the advantage, and if that attack hitted him it would certainly be over thanks to the poisoning, the raging sand and the leech seeds. Ankhati has no reason to fear.

But fear is an irrational thing,

>Houndour let's a deep loud Roar just as Ankhati came down stopping him dead on his tracks!

The Grass Pokémon rolls away from battle and returns to Dick's side!

Now it's time for the Switch up!

Percy: Houndour, come back and.

Dick: ALEXANDRO!

[Alexandro]: I'M DEATH, DESTROYER OF WORLDS

The bagon rushes with a "Headbutt" like a mad-"mon" towards houndour before he has a chance to return!

Houndour manages to move in time to evade Bagon’s attack and get to your side. Bagon stops rushing and stops to look for Houndour

>Sandstorm count: 5th turn, the Sandstorm subsided!
Instead of the Fire type he finds Whismur standing on the battlefield ready to throw down!

You instruct Houndour to rest a while and not move too much, as he still has poison in his system. Since he isn’t fighting anymore he gets rid of the seed with ease.

[Alexandro]: I can’t be hurt! I’m the STRONGEST!

Whismur charges the Beam from her mouth and let's the devastating attack hit Bagon before he gets a chance to react! The Beam was bigger than her! Waaaaay bigger. You can feel the cold shockwave dissipate on the arena. The spectators are in awe.


Dick: ALEXANDRO! ANSWER ME!

[Alexandro]: This… Isn’t..enough TO DEFEAT ME

Motherfucker was bred to hit hard, be fast, and be resilient. Way too resilient.

[Alexandro]: TO VICTORY!

He’s on his last legs, charging like crazy in. His body is emanating some strange kind of energy

It's a good move, but I'd rather we guarantee that he'll be finished off with a Super Effective attack. We can make use of it when Cacnea gets brought out again.

Alexandro goes all out rushing Whismur with his fully charged attack! Whismur barely misses the Dragon and doesn't have time to retaliate. Bagon stops emanating the energy, he is starting to seem tired, seems like he expected a short fight

Alexandro pushes the last remains of his strength to his lungs, inhaling as much air as he can, he prepares to let out a “Dragon Breath”! Meanwhile Whismur starts charging her Ice Beam once again, to finish this bout with the Dragon. It’s all about that first hit.

Alexandro let’s out a fiery blast of purple flames directed towards your Pokémon! At the same time Whismur attacks with an Ice Beam!
The attack connects!
The Ice beam was faster, Alexandro is unconscious on the ground. His expression still shows surprise for being hit. His flames barely touched Whismur, causing her no damage whatsoever.

Dick goes towards the Bagon, for a relatively Small Pokémon he is pretty heavy so the boy has trouble carrying him out of the arena.

Dick: Dumb, green lizard…

Dick: This isn’t over Williams! I still got a Pokémon left. Ankhati go!

The Cacnea has recomposed himself since he was affected by Houndour’s “Roar” and he’s more than ready to fight.

>Cacnea shows some signs of damage, but because of his use of leech seed he is still has plenty of fight left in him

>Whismur was hurt from Bagon’s attack but not critically. She has stamina left to fight!

>Houndour hasn’t sustained more damage from the poison since he started resting, but he still is in an almost critical condition

Now, how can you deal with Cacnea?

>>2834018
Can we give Houndour a potion while he's on the sidelines? As for Whismur,
>Defend, and Counterattack with Echoed Voice

>>2834023
Yeah, you can give the mon a potion

As soons as Cacnea starts lifting dirt Whismur stops him with a deafening attack. Onlookers and Dick are covering their ears, trying to protect themselves from the eardrum busting move.

The attack is so loud it creates a Shockwave dissipating Ankhati Sandstorm before it's fully formed!

Ankhati starts moving around Whismur, waiting for the exact moment she drops her guard and opens her mouth.

Just as Whismur takes a mouthful of air to deliver another "Echoed Voice" she is stopped by Ankhati's "Sucker Punch"

>It's a Critical Hit!

His spiky fist is stronger than it looks, sending Whismur tumbling down and struggling with the pain.

>Whismur is severely damaged! that last punch hurt her quite badly. Not in a critical state but she won't last another attack like that!

We got 3 Antidotes and Houndour still is poisoned.

>>2834101

The battle has turned into a slugfest, both fighters waiting for a chance to strike. Circling around the arena like a pair of boxers. Whismur goes for the offensive making a quick step towards Ankhati.Dick sees this as an opportunity and commands Ankhati to attack!

The cacnea puts all of his weight on the strike, trying to make it the finishing strike. But Whismur avoids it by jumping over him

I feel how we win, will have different effects on Dick. Since this is a hard won victory instead of a slam dunk for us.
Since the dragon Pokemon could have done better if he followed his trainer's commands

>>2835153
True, although I think a slam dunk would have actually pushed their need to work together even further. I'm mainly worried about the effects this battle will have on Houndour. The one that he viewed as the weaker and smaller "child" essentially bailed him out and not only destroyed another mon but also the one that forced him to flee.
>>
>>2835087

>Partial Success

Both Pokémon rush at one another preparing their fist to unleash their last attacks. Ankhati’s “Sucker Punch” hits whisur square in the face. At the same time Whismur drops her last “Hammer Arm” on the grass type head. They both hit at the same time. For such small Pokémons their blows are really heavy, you can feel their tremendous force the moment they connect

Both Pokémons stand in the middle of the arena, unmoving. With their arms still extended hitting each other. You can see them both trying to push one another to the ground. They both know that they are at their limit. After a couple of seconds that seems like an eternity it happens. Both Pokémon bodies give up. Exhausted and hurt they both fall to the ground unconscious.

The crowd loses their minds. They don’t care who won. This was hype.

Dick sighes and walks to the arena to pick up Ankhati

This battle was…

This was a tough fight, but you managed to come out victorious! Houndour was more than ready to fight again if things went awry for Whismur but thankfully this wasn’t the case.

Percy: I guess this is my win

Seems Like most of the crowd agrees with you, cheering for Whismur, you know she would be elated if she could hear them. You go over the arena to pick her up. She did a great job honestly.

Seems like Dick is beating himself by this loss, he seems a little angry, not particularly at you, or his mons, just pissed

With some rest they should be better by afternoon. Still you make sure to carry Whismur around, she's a little bit heavy but you can hold her no problem.

You look to the street and the sky in case you see your Pokémon friends nearby. After searching for a while you catch them hanging out at the school rooftop, seems like Abra and Murkrow were watching you fight. Murkrow gives you nod congratulating you and Abra manages to do a thumbs

You also see Kali with her little group, they seem to be taking some "last-day" pictures. It's a little weird seeing her all smiling and cheerful considering how she was yesterday. You look for a little bit more on that direction and find Growlithe! He seems better than before! a little tire but not dead from exhaustion. He watches over Kali and her friends. One friend suggest taking pictures with their Pokémon, Kali and Growlithe seem unsure about it

Nearby the yearly student's maid cafe has opened its door. It's usually half butlers half mads, and food isn't that great really. Their costumes and decorations are cheap and tacky as expected of students and oh my god is that a Poochyena wearing a little maid costume? There's actually other mons wearing little costumes!

You tell you pals to come down with you. Murkrow swoops toward where you are wand Abra appears in a flash, you decide to go somewhere to talk with them, and you know the right place

Something is …captivating about the maid café. It draws you. Guided by instinct you take a step towards the decorated classroom. You feel a little nervousness, but you can’t tell the cause. It seems like they went with a the Pokémon theme HARD this time, not only are the maids an butlers sporting fake ears or costumes inspired by Pokémon, but they brought their own Pokémon wearing ties and aprons! It’s still a student project and it has it’s glaring flaws but right now, you don’t care

[Student butler:] Good day master, table for seven?

Houndour: Actually, I´m going to wait outside. This is… weird

Houndour leaves the café, a little uncomfortable

Percy: Actually just six.

You are sat down with your mons, Murkow says you have been doing a good job as a “Master”, but he always knew you would be good at it. Abra is wondering about the frilly dresses and the suits, they all look like Gothoritas.

>Get some snacks for everybody?: Platter $500 Y/N

Also, for some reason you can’t take your eyes off…..

Disregard cute human girls cosplaying, be an autist and gush over their cute little pokemon in costumes instead.
Also ask our pokepals if they can check on Growlithe for us.
Being able to fly and teleport is useful, so we can get info straight from the horses mouth without having to be near Kali.
>>
>>2835786
Oh yeah, and tell our pals about the tournament coming up. We'll be able to get licensed and use pokeballs. If they don't want to be caught by others, we can catch them and release afterwards.

A shame Houndour won't hear this and realize our intentions
>>
Also, I gotta go out for a while, I'll come back at 6:00 or 7:00 pm MDT to keep this going

Also voting will be open until then

I mean, I know they're our buddies but I'd like to keep the party slots free for any potentially cool/cute pokemon we may find in our journey, because I'm sure as hell Percy wouldn't send them to a PC or something to make room or abandoned them, he isn't the gotta catch 'em all kind of guy, unless we decided to invest in property and make our own sanctuary of pokemon we helped and befriended to live comfortably in, and it's not like we won't be seeing more of them when we return from the journey.
We also need to keep in mind one of our goals being to befriend a Dragon type.
If we don't have a fuck huge T-rex by the end of the quest, I'mma be very disappointed.
>>
>>2835940
I'm not necessarily interested in catching a dragon for catching a dragon's sake.
>>
>>2835754
>Ask them if they want to join you as travelling companions
Stress that they don’t have to come, if they have other things that they want to do, and they don’t have to battle or anything like that if they don’t want to, but they’re welcome to tag along if they want to. If they don’t feel like coming with us, then ask them if they’d like us to “Capture” then release them, so they won’t be caught by any trainers.

It may not be the best around, but the Pokémon are content eating the assorted pastries and chips. Whismur wakes up from her rest as soon as the food arrives.

Only Mimikyu takes pauses to make some comments on the food, giving himself some cooking pointers using the food as an example of what not to do or how to make it better. He still ate though.

You try to stop yourself but you can help but ogle the some of the girls attending the cafe. This usually doesn't happen to you, but that girl with the fennekin ears and tail.... and the pair with the minun and plusle themed outfits...

You hit the table to remind yourself to behave in front of your Pokéfriends

>Percy realized something about himself! (Taste for girls in Poké-Cosplay acquired)

Also, there's something you want to talk about with Murkrow and Abra. You explain to them that as soon as he finishes the tournament he'll get a permit to use Pokéballs, and you propose them something. You could catch them with the Pokéballs and then just let them free, this way they won't have to worry about being catched again.

Also, if they like, maybe they could travel with you! They don't have to fight or anything, just tag along if they wish to.

They seem to like the idea of being catched by you, they trust you. And honestly if they ever got a "Master", they would like it to be someone like Percy.

And about traveling. Just yesterday they made a promise with Meowth. Because he is always getting into trouble because of his "Pick-up" habits it would be good if one of the two would stay to keep him off of trouble. So if someone would accompany you, they wanted to let you choose.

Who's coming with?

This way they're both reserve members and we can switch off pokemon as we make more friends with wild pokemon tribes and such. It'd be a cool way to sidestep sticking permanently to six pokemon.

>>2836409
It's not "Catched" QM.
In the past simple participle of catch, it's "Caught".

I know he doesn't speak English natively, it isn't my first language either, plus he's pretty good compared to so many other ESL I've come across, I'm just helping him improve, even if minutely, specially considering this is a pokemon quest so catching pokemon, trying to catch pokemon, and talking about caught pokemon is going to pop up quite a bit.

You decide to take Abra with you as a traveling companion! Maybe, you could help him control his teleportation!

>Abra has Joined your traveling group!
>Abra can teleport to anywhere on his visual field. But has trouble going back and forth through long distances.

You tell them you’ll be traveling back here, and that maybe you can switch things up if one wants to stay and the other decides to travel. They both seemed pleased with this idea. Also, Abra says he has to get some stuff ready. He’ll join your group as soon as the tournament is over.

You and your friends continue the meal quietly, and then you hear a familiar voice through the classroom door.
Dick:…ok, here we are, why did you even want to come here?

[Alexandro]: Master has arrived!

The Bagon kicks the door open. Drawing the attention of everyone on the café.

Dick just covers his face in shame, Ankhati stays close to Alexandro, his arms behind his back standing as some kind of bodyguard.

Dick:…Table for three

The little group sits on a table on the other side of the room while they wait for someone to take their orders

[Alexandro]: This is the best! Being served by charming females sporting only the most ostentatious and refined garments your sorry species could come up with, as they fawn over my magnificence. This is fit for a king! It’s fit for me!

Dick: I hope Kali didn’t saw me coming here….Why did I agree to this? I need to get out of here

He raises his head to see who else is on the café, in that moment his eyes meet yours leading to a strange and uncomfortable moment.

Seems like you and him have a little more in common that what you previously thought. He may not be the most amicable of fellows but at least you respect his tastes. You give Dick a thumbs up and nod in approval before coolly withdrawing. He is red with embarrassment, but you know better, a man should not be ashamed of his tastes. At least that's what your father told you.

Dick: NO, I’M NOT INTO POKE-GIRLS NOR THIS MAID STUFF!

[Alexandro]: Philistine

Seems like everyone at the cafe noticed Dick's outburst

Wow, he’s feisty. Maybe you should send him some “links” later, he needs to get comfortable with himself, the first step is to accept it.


The school day finishes and you met with Eli one last, time. Also it’s time to roll to see the effects of their training.

Raise Houndour Sp.Attack
Raise MImikyu Speed

Looks like Whismur's a little bit tired after that fight but damn did she inspire the other two. Especially Houndour.
>>
Guys didn't we say we're going to give our mons a rare candy a day before the tournament to let them get used to it's power?
>>
>>2836832
Personally I'm opposed to using the rare candy. Putting aside whatever ethical quandaries exist to using illegal drugs to roid up our boys before the tournament, we already have one of the biggest advantages in that we can actually talk to our mons; I don't think we really need the buff for this.
>>
>>2836848
To put it in hardcore SHOUNEN terms, I'd like us to win the tournament and our license entirely on the fact that we worked our asses off and trust our mon's ability. Not to say the situation is the same, but after us lecturing Kali on shoving a bunch of rare candies down Growlithe's throat, I don't think Houndour would look too favorably on us trying to use one on him.
>>
>>2836818
Whismur has been doing well lately, working on improving her stamina and weathering down hits. Her endurance has really improved.

>>2836823
>>2836824
Also it seems like Whismur recents accomplishments in training and battling have motivated your other teammates to improve even further!

Mimikyu moves way faster than before! Even without using "Double Team" there's no doubt his evasive capabilities have improved immensely! He can move around almost all the battlefield in no time!

As for Houndour.. He's trying really hard these days to improve his Special attacks, mainly his "Ember", and seems like today battle has giving him enough drive to push himself even further! While practicing his "Ember" he accidentally let's a fiercer attack out, the flames come deep within himself!

>Houndour learned "Flamethrower!"

Also, you still got those rare candies, if you want them to adjust to the power boost for the tournament.

>Give one candy to each mon, conserve the remaining one

>Give one candy to each mon and give the extra one to....(Houndour? Whismur? Vulpix?...Eli?)

>Don't give them any candies you are sure they don't need them

>Other/ write in
>>
>>2836848
>>2836855
I don't think Houndour would look at a rare candy favorably at all.
A human creation that boosts your strength without any of the work and can even be detrimental if taken in large doses? Yeah, nah. He isn't even in this like Mimikyu is, he's flaky on whether to leave or stay, why would he take it?
Also Whismsur and Vulpix are basically the pokemon equivalent of children, using TMs are one thing since teaches the knowledge of the move but you still gotta put in the work to improve it but why would you want to give children super steroids?

>Don't give them any candies you are sure they don't need them

Holy shit. Nice.
>>
>>2836872
>>Don't give them any candies you are sure they don't need them
We should keep them and only ask the pokemon if they want it when they are evolved and it's way harder to get GAINS, with full disclosure about what it is and does, but even then I'd rather do it the SHONEN way

>Let's abstain from using Rare candies for now

You decide to lay off the Pokémon enhancing chemicals for now on, your team is fine, they have made some great improvements during this week without any of that stuff

Also..

>>2836911
This is Vulpix first training session, you mons are already accustomed to their training routines so you accompany her to watch how they are doing.

Just like in your last battle against the Cacnea and Bagon she is completely enthralled by their training. Especially by Houndour's flamethrower.

[Vulpix]: I want to do stuff like that! Hey Trainer! When do I start?

Use this last training session to:

>Teach Vulpix how to use Ice Beam

>Do some sparring with Vulpix (against who? one of your mons? one of Eli's?)

[Vulpix]: Finally! This is why I came here! Let’s do this!

You tell Vulpix is time to start her training. Mimikyu will be her partner. You tell the ghost mon to start slowly and easy and ramp it up as the battle goes on.

[Vulpix]: I don't need you to coddle me! Go all out!

She’s more than ready to start.

[Vulpix]: Finally! This is why I came here! Let’s do this!

She’s more than ready to start.
You ask her to show you what her moves are first but she tells you that you will see them in battle.

[Vulpix]: I can breathe some cold air with snow, shoot out some chunks of ice, do a strange ray to confuse, lower his offense and a weird fairy thing, but that last one is hard.

>Partial pass!

Vulpix tries to close as much distance as possible, Mimikyu is moving slowly (on his own terms) around the battlegrounds, trying to act as a moving target. Vulpix is trying her best to asure a clean hit. When Mimikyu starts changing direction she let’s out a “Powder Snow” the icy gust of winds covers Mimikyu completely…..

And he’s unscathed, just a little chilly. It wasn’t even strong enough to break down his “Disguise”. Mimikyu just stops for a second. Seems like Vulpix is waiting to see the effects of her attack on the ghost mon. He responds by slapping her with a weakened Astonish

[Vulpix]: What the heck?

What to do next with Vulpix?

Also, give Mimikyu any instructions or just let him on his own?
(Keep being a moving target? Start going for the offense? Tank her hits? Pretend to be hurt to raise her self-confidence? Other/write in)

You tell Mimikyu to mix it up to see how she deals with differents scenarios and get an overall idea about her capabilities. Mimikyu nods in agreement.

After dodging some more attacks from her he starts going for the offensive. Using her various limbs to attack with astonish. Seems like that first slap actually spooked Vulpix since she is now trying to evade instead of going directly into the battle

Once she starts avoiding Mimikyu's attack she can't seem to stop. She gracefully dodges every attack, all of her attention solely focusing on her opponent.

Seems like she's getting used to this so Mimikyu started attacking faster. She's still avoiding all of his hits! Barely but she's doing it, and as soons as she has a clear shot he hits Mimikyu with an "Ice Shard"

>Mimikyu's "disguise" thanks the attack

After being hit so suddenly Mimikyu stop his ranged attack and starts getting closer.

Mimikyu starts to move towards Vulpix moving erratically while advancing. Vulpix starts to back away trying to make some distance, seems like she is more comfortable getting hits at a certain range. But Mimikyu doesn't let her. He waits for a chance to strike and hits her with an "Astonish" directly on her head. Vulpix braces herself!

Mimikyu's astonish goes directly though Vulpix brittle defenses! The attack was a little harder than Mimikyu intended to making Vulpix flinch!....

Not sure about what to do next, Mimikyu kept slapping her lightly before she gets a chance to react. He's basically toying with her, which is making Vulpix increasingly pissed.

[Mimikyu]: Is this okay Master? Should I continue?

[Vulpix]: Ouch, that hurt! (Slap) Stop hitting me! (Slap) And it’s definitely not okay! I’m going to END this!

Vulpix is preparing an all-out offensive! You aren’t sure if that is a good idea.

Percy:Don’t let your opponent get the best of you during battle! Acting on your frustration is exactly what the enemy wants! Think before you act little ice-cream!

[Vulpix]: Okay, okay, think things through

Vulpix starts taking steps back while barely failing to avoid Mimikyu’s barrage of slaps, making some distance to have a little more time to react to his attacks, and just as Mimikyu starts moving towards her to not let her out of his reach Vulpix’s stares intensely at him with a “hurt puppy” look.

>Vulpix used “Baby-Doll Eyes”

Mimikyu continues his slapping nonetheless.

[Vulpix]: Hey! You are supposed to ease up!

[Mimikyu]: … I’m already going easy on you

At least she’s focusing and succeeding on avoiding his attacks again. Even though, all these evading is starting to tire her

You instruct Vulpix to use a “Confuse Ray”

[Vulpix]: Sure, as soon as I stop getting hit!

She is currently focused on evading, you tell her to wait for the correct moment to use the move. Let’s see how things go for the little Ice mon

Huh, seems like Eli's team is watching the battle closely, they seem to be discussing something with Houndour and Whismur

Vulpix keeps grazing Mimikyu’s slaps, she tries to move as little as possible while avoiding any real damage. After a little bit she gets used to avoiding him again, moving naturally, almost instinctively.

This gives her a chance to retaliate with “Confuse Ray”. Her eyes are focused on MImikyu’s, they flash for a moment emitting a strange colored light that takes Mimikyu by surprise, he was going for a full offensive, and it seems like he was expecting to just tank all of her hits no problem and didn’t really expect a status condition move to actually hit him.
You can see Mimikyu’s movements become a little more erratic and not as precise as before making them easier to evade for Vulpix, giving her some more breathing room.

Percy: Hit him with an “Ice Shard” Vulpix!

[Vulpix]: Roger

Vulpix is already on her attack range, having a chance to strike. Mimikyu notices this even with his confusion, and refrain from trying to strike, instead opting for making himself harder to hit, approaching her while zig-zagging, even though his evading isn’t as good as usual thanks to his current state.

DC: 5!

Also, it seems like Eli’s mons are asking your other teammates about Vulpix since this since the first time they see her. Also they seem to be betting? About the fight. Avenger (Trubbish) and Tremor (Sandile) say this sparring match will finish with Mimikyu unscathed, meanwhile Jaws disagrees, he thinks “BABY GIRL HAS GUTS”, seems like they want to convince Whismur and Houndour to join the bet. What are they even betting?

>Vulpix used Ice Shard!

Chunks of ice start forming around the small white Pokémon before they are launched at ludicrous speed towards Mimikyu.

They all hit! Throwing confused Mimikyu off balance and into the ground. They don't damage him too much but at least they did something this time!

JAWS: TOLD U BRUH, NOW PAY UP


>The sudden impact with the dirt snaps Mimikyu out of his confusion!

[Vulpix]: Serves you right! Look trainer I did it! I did it!

[Vulpix]: You were right trainer!


Vulpix is just pleased with herself, making little jumps al excitedly. And celebrating her little “Victory”.

Meanwhile, Mimikyu is still on the ground unsure of what to do next? Should he retaliate while she is distracted? Let her have her moment? “Master, what should I do?”

Also tell her that he was holding back. A lot. We've helped her confidence a bit, and shown her that having a cool head and not getting riled up is good, but we don't want her getting overconfident. Show her that she still has a ways to go.

>>Congratulate Vulpix for that last attack

She did do a good job with that last attack but it wasn't a finisher and she should realize that. Point out that Mimikyu went easy on her for the most part and let him show off his true speed - but use this as encouragement of the heights she could reach in the future if she works hard.

Percy: Well, I think that’s a wrap. Good job guys!

[Vulpix]: Heh, you liked that? My first victory! And I didn’t even try

Percy: Vulpix that was last attack was great! See? Keeping your head cool and..

[Vulpix]: My head is always cool, I’m an Ice type after all trainer:
(she gives you a smug look)

Percy: Thinking before acting and not letting your opponent get the best of you are essential for battling! But, even though that last hit was pretty good, it wouldn’t have been enough to finish the battle

[Vulpix]: But I won!

Percy: Come here Mimikyu

The Ghost mon wastes no time in getting up and get by your side, you explain he wasn’t going all out, you instruct him to show his actual speed. Mimikyu just zips around the arena, Vulpix’s eyes struggle to follow him and uses a Shadow Sneak on a rock that’s roughly vulpix size, sending it flyin away and chipping. Vulpix just stares flabbergasted.


Percy: It may not be much, but Mimikyu has been training for almost a week now, besides this isn’t his first battle. With some training you could catch up to him and the others!

[Vulpix]: He’s like this, just from training…with you?

Percy: Well, he was fast already when I met him but he has improved greatly!

[Vulpix]: Then I’m on your hands Trainer! It’s your responsibility to make me strong!

You practiced a little more with Vulpix after that, the rest of your mons took it easy for the rest of the day. They wanted to be in their best shape for tomorrow, even if Houndour would be the one fighting.

Eli: An Ice type? Yo, those are rare, she looks like one of those “Contest” mons! Did you befriend and stole some rich asshole’s pet?

Percy: Nah, I got my means

Eli: So, ready for a fucking awesome movie night?

As you promised, you follow Eli to her home, you ride on your bike alongside hers. It isn’t too far away, you get to an old neighborhood that’s on the way to the city slums. Eli talks about your newest member, she thinks she has moxie, not the “Ability” Moxie though, but Tremor has it! She’s been trying to figure out her team’s abilities as of late but the only she’s sure of is Tremor’s. Trubbish may have “Stench” and has no idea what Jaws has. You and she discuss Pokémon abilities for a while. Mainly hidden abilities, you bring out your theories about how it’s probably linked to a genetical factor. She calls you a nerd, not in a demeaning way. She smiles a little when saying it.

You finally arrive, Eli’s house is kind of small. One floor, a simple kitchen, a small living room, a single bathroom and two bedrooms. She lives alone with her dad and her mons.

She invites you to her room, it’s chock full of movie posters. And there’s a tons of old dvd’s arranged on a shelf. Besides that, and her bed there’s no much else to see, a small closet, a nightstand and what you assume are a pair of beds for her mons.
Her mons and yours are hanging out in the living room, seems like Vulpix is introducing herself to Eli’s team.
Eli hooks up a little projector and aims it at an empty wall, and puts up the movie, meanwhile you open one of your bags of chips. She sits down on her bed, she looks pretty eager.

Ask anything before the movie starts?

>So, are the mons joining us?
>So, it’s just you and your dad?
>How do you feel about the upcoming tournament?
>Do you have other people over often?
>other/ write in

Also, it seems that besides the bed, there’s not many places to sit down
>Sit on the bed, close to Eli

You get on the bed, putting your homemade snacks in the middle of Eli and you. It’s seems like… the polite thing to do. She finishes setting up things and the intro starts playing. Ominous music plays as the movie shows various shot of the lake, a group of campers and an underwater cave where a “Shiny Magikarp” is zoomed in by the camera before he opens his eyes suddenly and the screen fades to black. Eli already started munching on your snacks

Her Pokémon hurry up to the room, Tremor and Jaws get on their beds while Avenger sits on the floor, the reptilian Pokémon give you and Eli a warning look, they are looking out for her in case you try anything. Whismur gets beside avenger, seems like she’s telling her about her last fight. Mimikyu gets under the bed, Vulpix lays on one off the pillows and Houndour just lays close to the door.

Eli: Man, this is pretty good. Didn’t know you could cook, another reason to drag you around

Percy: Well, Mimikyu helped me out, he’s the one who’s actually good with that stuff

Eli:Then give my regards to the little guy, cause it’s pretty tight

Percy: So, how do you feel about the upcoming tournament?

Eli: Pff, that’s amateur hour! I mean, besides you, everyone else is probably going to be pushovers, so I feel pretty good about my chances

Eli:…still, I can’t afford to mess up on this. I mean, I already got in trouble for that dumb “cheat-sheet” “Sensei” gave me. And even though he told me he would fix that I haven’t had a word from him since he left for the capital…

Eli: My ass is on the line! I need to get to “semi-finals” at least so that old bastard Orizaba can’t doubt my abilities as a trainer! I mean, I know I’m great and all, I just need to show it!

Eli:…If I can’t be a trainer, I don’t think I’m good for anything else

>Hey, don’t worry about that stuff, I’m sure you’ll do okay, let’s just enjoy this moment
>I know you can do it, I’ll be cheering for you

Eli: Yeah! We can do this! Right guys?

[Tremor]: We got your back Eli
[Avenger]:You can count on us!
[Jaws]: I’LL FUCKING EAT THEM


Eli: That sounded enthusiastic enough!
Eli: Also, stop it with the sweet talk weirdo! We gonna be rivals tomorrow! (She says playfully and punches you softly in the arm)

Eli:… and thanks Percy

She looks directly at you, giving you a little smile, you aren’t sure how to react

Percy: and, by the way, who’s this sensei you keep speaking off?

Eli: He’s some old guy I met after tremor and I rescued Avenger, he lives near the old herb shop. I think he runs the place. Long story short I got into a fight with him, he kicked our asses like really bad, and after the twentieth loss or so he took me in as an apprentice. I don’t even know the guys name! he just goes by “Sensei”. I actually don’t know anything about him, besides that he is kind of an ass and that his team is STUPIDLY STRONG. Couldn’t even defeat one of his mons. Huh, you actually remind me of him for some reason. Weird.

Eli: Oh! shush! the movie is about to begin!

Eli looks completely engrossed by the movie, she has the same look when she is battling.

Right now you are feeling:

>Glad, she has been a good training partner, you are still aren't sure how much time you two will stick together

>Captivated by the movie: Eli was right, once you get pass a couple of bad visual effects and a little bit of cheesy dialogue the movie is really good!

The movie isn’t so bad, the visual effects are decent for the most part, the story is nothing to write home about but the delivery of the scenes and the tension it builds it’s pretty good. Still, you aren’t sure if this is an appropriate movie for Whismur but she doesn’t seem to mind, except for the most scary scenes where she covers her eyes.
Normally you would be trying to figure out if any of the Red-Gyarados scenes was made with an actual shiny Gyarados and be pointing up the inconsistencies between the movie representation of the Pokémon and their actual behavior and nature.
But you can’t, your mind is somewhere completely different. You thought you got used to be around Eli after that week of training, but, when you see her in this light, close to you. Only separated by an almost empty bag of snacks. Sometimes, you can feel her hand accidentally touch yours when you both try to grab a snack. She is too focused on the movie to mind. It makes you a little nervous, but it also feels good.

You can feel your hearth beat a little faster so you try to calm down thinking about Pokémon biology and trivia. But you can’t keep focused, soon your mind wanders off to the memories of the maid café. You can stop picturing girls wearing Pokémon themed attires, but instead of the girls you saw, all of them are Eli. Wearing little Skitty ears, a Lopunny themed attire, Goldeen themed bikini….

…And she looks cute

Percy: I’ll be waiting. Oh by the way….

You tell Eli about Kali and her Growlithe, they could be troublesome thanks to her military training on the mon. She thinks you are exaggerating, you also tell her about Dick, his Bagon Alexandro may not listen to him yet but the Dragon is strong, durable and fast, also you make sure to mention Ankhati the Cacnea, his use of sandstorm gave you some trouble earlier. Eli thought Dick sounded like a pushover, but if he gave you trouble he could be bad news.

Then again, I can bet Eli told her dad about her training buddy in the week we've trained together, and either asked permission or say'd she'd be bringing a friend over, and he might have come prepared.

Also don't forget we're too autistic for anything like that, on top of our imminent Pokemon journey as trainers. We have plenty of time for character development.
>>
>>2839486
We also have the chance to meet new people in our travels. That could be life long friends, enemies, or other.
>>
>>2839494
Yup. A lot can happen on a Pokemon journey. As long as we meet all our goals of losing virginity, finding out what we wanna do with our life, get in something Pokemon related as a career, and win the National League - not necessarily in that order - I'm fine with whatever happens except our death by dice or autism. Or both.

You follow Eli to the kitchen, she starts setting up the table, you decide to help her out. Seems like his old man is just entering through the door

[Eli’s dad]: I hope you girls like Kantonian food, cause that’s what I brought!
…..
[Eli’s dad]: What’s a guy doing here?

Eli: I told you I´d be having a friend over

[Eli’s dad]: You didn’t told me he was a guy!

Eli: Dad chill out, why does it matter? And take off that uniform, you’ll weird him out!

[Eli’s dad]: Okay, sorry. I’m just looking out for my lil princess.

Eli: Please don’t call me that. Percy, this is my father. Father this is Percy.

[Eli’s dad]:…Hello Percy. Hey Eli, why don’t you serve your and Percy’s Pokémon some food outside. We’ll get things ready here.

Eli: Sure! I’ll be right back

The man in the combat suit removes his helmet, he has a gruff roughish look and sports a serious expression, on his chest he sports the same logo that was on the uniform of those strange guys at the factory where Houndour’s pack lives now.

“BlackStone Co.”

[Eli’s dad]: So, Percieval, what are your intentions with my daughter?

What will you say to him?

>We are training partners Sir, for the test of tomorrow, ehm sir
>Just friends! Just that!
>I’m actually not sure
>We are going to travel together

"Intentions? We've kinda been sparring partners together for a week preparing for the tournament, she's uh... pretty much my first friend? Human friend that is. I'm really good with pokémon, can practically talk to them, yeah. hehe erm" Try not to lose pkétreats "A-Anyway the last thing I want is to ruin that by doing something untoward her."

Clearly Dick's parents are into some shady shit, if they're poking around abandoned factories and hiring dudes in combat suits.

>>
>>2839517

Even if Eli father does some shady stuff in Abandoned warehouses. I feel he's just doing it as a job to provide for his family, since it's just them.
So either momma is dead or a deadbeat.
>>
>>2839517
>We're just training partners and friends, sir, that's all.
>>
>Anons don't even vote for the just friend option.
So all she is is a training partner? Cue her returning right at the moment and she overhears this.
>>
>>2839603
Well I mean the "Just Friends" option sounds like it shuts off that romantic path you all seem to want just as much as the training partners option does.
>>
>>2839606
Your probaly right anon but its too late now. Personally i think spilling some spaghetti now would be hilarious.
>>
>>2839606
>sounds like it shuts off that romantic path
Considering the context and situation, neither option sounds primed to burn bridges like what we did with Kali, it's just that calling her a friend after a week of training and having her invite us over to hangout and watch a movie, after bonding over the week seems more personal than just saying she's our training partner.
It's not like we're friendzoning her since there's nothing to friendzone yet.
>>
>>2839620
Saying "training partner" fits the denial autism though, so it still works.

Percy: We are just training partners for the test sir! (You can’t help but show your nervousness)

[Eli’s dad]: So, training partners? Not friends? Is my little Eli not good enough for you?

Percy: No! not at all! She’s great! Totally great!

[Eli’s dad]: Ah, so you do like her! Are you trying anything with her? Any “unmoral” desires?

Percy:That’s not what I meant..

[Eli’s dad]: Are you strong kid? Think you can take me on? You aren’t in any gangs right? You into drugs? POKÉPHILIA!?

Eli: (From another room) Cut it out dad! You are making him nervous!
…..

Percy:Ehm, I’m just a rookie trainer, sir.

The man sighs and takes of his equipment leaving it on the couch.
[Eli’s dad]: Help me out with the food. I’ll get the dishes

After a while the three of you sat down on the dining table, it’s kind of an awkward mood.

Eli: Sorry, my dad can get like that sometimes

[Eli’s dad]:Is a dangerous world Eli, you don’t know what to expect from anyone

Eli: Look at him Dad! He’s harmless!

Eli: C’mon dude, say something!

Also, quick question

Does Percy watch competitive battling on TV?
>>
>>2839704
i feel like he maybe watched a little or followed the matches of a few trainers he grew fond of, but i feel that he would prefer actually being productive with his mons. the difference between watching battles and being in them.
>>
>>2839704
Let's say yeah, he does. Seems like the sort of thing that would interest him.
>>
>>2839704
He used to be really into it when he was younger but he hasn't kept up with the scene in awhile. He still watches casually on occasion.
>>
>>2839704
>Y
>>
>>2839709
Though I imagine he's been a bit too busy this week to watch them, having to train his own Pokemon.
>>
>>2839704
Yes, He also bets on the matches
>>
>>2839704
Of course.
Any rookie trainer and pokémon aficionado would.
It's choke full of competitive info on mons for any aspiring trainer to soak up and any aficionado gets to watch. maybe drop a hint we also watch Pokémon Contests just sometimes
>>
>>2839704

>>
>>2839704
Holy shit yes, have you seen how strong those mons are? They different types from across the globe, the clearly powerful bonds and teamwork the trainers and pokemon share? Competitive pokemon battles are fucking awesome!

Percy: Ehm... do you like Pokémon?

[Eli’s dad]: What kind of dumb question is that?

Percy:…….

[Eli’s dad]: Of course! I like Pokémon! I work with them! Didn’t you see all the Pokéballs I was carrying? Where did you even find this kid?

[Eli’s dad]: Do you watch competitive battling kid?

Percy: Yeah! I mean, I haven’t been watching a lot lately, since I’ve been training an all that.

[Eli’s dad]: Then it’s time to watch some.

Eli’s dad goes for the tv remote and turns it on, then he puts on the Pokémon Battling Network , (PBN is where the major events are televised, like regional competitions, battles between famous trainers, or between champions of different regions, the national league, but also official matches between new coming Pro-trainers duking it out for the spotlight.)

It’s almost the end of the match. They are both newcomers, singles battle, full team. It’s a trainer from North Pass against one from the Capital. The trainer from north pass just used a Machamp to take defeat his opponent’s Steelix. They are both down to two Pokémon each. The trainer from the capital chooses a Staraptor who goes up in the air, out of Machamp’s reach, the fighting type tries to jump high enough to land an Ice Punch, but in the air, he is at disadvantage. It doesn’t take long before the Staraptor decimates the Fighting type. From his wings he creates gigantic gusts of wind that leave the Machamp with no place to maneuver. He wears him down with aerial aces before finishing him up with a Brave Bird. The crowd goes wild. The Staraptor uses the moment to heal himself with “Roost”

[Eli’s dad]: Shit, get it together kid! You are representing North Pass! No, no, don’t let him heal just switch your Pokémon already goddamit!

He seems to get pretty into the matches, father like daughter you guess.

You and him keep watching for a while, the match doesn’t look good for the guy with the Machamp, he lets out his last Pokémon. A Scizor, the commentators are saying that the situation isn’t looking good for “Maximillian” but that he could turn the tide with his “Ace”.
And they were right, the following battle were a massacre.

[Eli’s dad]: That’s what I’m talking about! You see that kid? Everyone just watches when the league comes around, but damn if these battles aren’t great. Way better than that contest stuff.

(Contest aren’t that bad, you think)

[Eli’s dad]: You see yourself there?

Percy: … no, I can’t see myself on TV, I’m not sure if I’m made for the camera

[Eli’s Dad]: Then, why are you even a trainer?

You brace yourself, a feeling, deep inside you makes sure to deliver your words without needing a second thought.

Percy:Because I see myself in the battlefield. Alongside my friends.

[Eli’s Dad]: So, you wanna go Pro, kid?

Percy: Not only Pro, I’m getting into the league.

[Eli’s Dad]: Heh, yeah, you and everyone else. Why makes you different from the countless “failed” trainers who couldn’t even get 8 badges?

Percy: Every kid dreams to win the league someday, and I’m no different. But WE are capable of it.

[Eli’s Dad]: Pff. Whom? You and your “team” of little pets out there?

The man stands up, looking down on you. He doesn’t buy it.

[Eli’s Dad]: You are like every damn kid your age, betting everything in a doomed training career, spend loads of time, money, energy just to give up cuz one fucking Gym Leader is too though on you. And then, all your plans and dreams just go down the drain.

[Eli’s Dad]: You think you are hot shit, but you, and THEM are just more “failures” in the making.

You stand up, for a second there you forget completely about your fears, about how intimidating the guy looks, about Eli how is screaming at her dad to cut it out.

Percy: Don’t talk shit about my friends!

Percy: We may not be the best right now. But I believe in their potential! They have placed their trust on me, each one in their own way, so I can’t let them down. If they believe in me then I believe I have a chance! I’m going to be the partner they deserve!

Percy: Besides, how else I’m supposed to keep up with Eli’?

[Eli’s Dad]:…..Heh.

[Eli’s Dad]: Hehehehe

[Eli’s Dad]: I hope you aren’t all talk kid. I don’t want some wannabe trainer dragging my princess down. Sit down boy, let me get you a beer. Wait your like 15 forget it.

Eli:Dad! What the hell!

[Eli’s Dad]: Sorry, I got carried away. This damned job is getting to me.

[Eli’s Dad]: Don’t be like me kid. At least have a back-up plan.

He takes from his pocket a little metal box, inside there’s 7 Gym Badges

[Eli’s Dad]: What kind of Bullshit rule is to only give you one shot at a Gym. Fucking Dragon trainers….

[Eli’s Dad]: Welp, I’m going to sleep. See you later kids.

[Eli’s Dad]: And good luck, Percival, you are gonna need it

>[Eli’s Dad now respects you!]
>[Showed off your manly side: +Confidence when dealing with People!]
>>
After finishing your meal Eli walks you out to the door. She seems really embarrassed about her Dad’s behavior.

Eli: Fuck, sorry dude, I didn’t thought he would get like that.

Eli: And what’s up with you? Acting all macho out of nowhere? Thought for a second you were gonna fight it out

Eli:Thank god you didn’t, I would feel like shit if my dad beat you in a coma

Percy: I’m also glad he didn’t. I was kind of expecting at least one punch in the face

Eli:You looked pretty cool though….

Percy:Huh?

Eli:Forget it, see ya tomorrow weirdo

You walk with your mons to your house. Your parents aren’t home yet and seems like your sister still has troubles facing you. It would probably be for the best if you went to bed right now, tomorrow is the tournament, and something tells you it’s going to be a long day.

While Percival Williams sleeps, we shift perspective too….

In another timeline, Percy gets dumped by bullies into a trash can and becomes best friends with a Trubbish who was left there by mistake.

7 years ago…

What happens to the things nobody wants? The useless stuff that only takes up space?
They go into the trash

[Childhood bully]: Have fun there you mute
[Lackey]: Maybe he’ll “talk” to the thrash, haha!

The bigger kid had dumped you in a trash can on your way home, you thought about getting up but there was just no motivation from your part.

Sometimes, in a group, there’s an “odd one out”, that for some reason seems to be the common target of everyone else insults and aggression. For a while, because of your inability to speak to other kids and your “weird Pokémon-like habits” you were the odd one out.

[???]: Caw! Cawk!

Little Percy: huh? A Murkrow?

[Murkrow]: Hey! Those are MY trashcans! I have dibs on the stuff there! GET OUT!

Little Percy: eh, uh Sorry, I didn’t want to be a bother, just let me get out of here

You struggle to get out of the trash heap trying to avoid making a mess in the street. You fail and the trash can falls and starts rolling with you inside, you start panicking a little when you rear your head and see yourself going directly onto the street, cars are going way to fast to notice you getting closer to them. But the Pokémon grabs you by your sleeve and gets you out in time.

[Murkrow]: You understand what I say?

Little Percy: A little, thanks Mr.Murkrow!

You are grateful for the Bird Pokémon, so you take some coins from your Pocket, the shinier ones. And give them to the mon. He takes a moment to examine them before storing them in a little plastic bag tied around one of his

[Murkrow]: Why were you dumpster-diving human? You know you can buy stuff with coins? I just realized that!

Little Percy: Some kids shoved me in the trash, they tend to do stuff like that when they see me

[Murkrow]: I’ll think I follow you for a bit, just to make sure you don’t get shoved inside another of my trash cans

He did the same again, every school day he would fly alongside of you, just to make sure you wouldn't get in trouble.

Thanks to your parent’s support, some psychological therapy and that new kid who was WAY into contests and musicals (poor Daniel) your classmates stopped targeting you. You weren’t the most sociable of kids but at the very least you weren’t being dumped in the thrash anymore.
>>
>>2845457
Aww, Murkrow's a good guy.
>Thanks to your parent’s support, some psychological therapy and that new kid who was WAY into contests and musicals (poor Daniel) your classmates stopped targeting you.
Ouch, poor Daniel.
>>
>>2845459
Maybe we can come across him on our travels starting from tomorrow's big event onward? Who knows?

What I DO know is that on a big Pokemon journey, camping gear and supplies and know-how is essential. Mimikyu is a Ghost type so maybe he doesn't quite need sleep as much as other mons might - this will help us to stay a bit safer at nighttime, and he can just sleep somewhere in our bag during the day if he needs to. Brainstorming and planning how to prep for the journey is something we need to do, guys!

Cool kids hang out inside dumpsters

1 year ago

Eli: C’mere you fucks! I’m not done with you!

Screamed a punkish girl inside a trash can to the boys that just previously shoved her inside.
Fucking cowards.
Weak people tend to band together, and a bunch of teens living on the ghetto, attending one of the worst public schools in the city where the teachers just didn’t give a shit and the students who cared even less couldn’t wait to long to form or join little “groups” of their own.

They mostly just fucked around doing petty shit. Skipping classes for a smoke, shoplift at convenience stores, vandalize buildings, beat up the idiots who hadn’t joined any group, and obviously they all had their little “turf wars” The only condition to join was: “You need a Pokémon”. Almost every kid she knew was already in a group, and so was she. It had some stupid name like “The Poochs” cause almost everyone had a Poochyena.

The girl only hanged around them cause, what else could there was to do while she got her trainer license? Try hard at school? there’s no way she could afford college. Nobody cares about the people living in this place. Still, she didn’t really like being with her group, having to follow some stupid self-proclaimed “boss” cuz he has a couple of Gym-Badges. But, it was better than being pushed around by every dumb fuck just cause she wasn’t in a “gang”. It was frustrating having to depend on others.

Her only real friend was “Tremor” they’ve been together for some time now. Yeah sure, there was a language barrier, but she felt he understood her more than anyone else in her group.

Every day, a lonely Trubbish scavenged around the Trash bins of the school. The girls just watched him from afar, it was weird seeing a Pokémon like that travel without a pack, at first she thought that he was just collecting trash for a larger group, but after tailing him now and then she realized he lived alone in a little hideout. She was a little jealous of him, but she also thought it was dumb, such a weak mon living alone could be prey to another one or one of the loads of trainers that lived around here.

And she was right

Eli: What the fuck are you doing guys?

[Pooch member#1:] Sup’ Liz. Little green shit was hanging around our territory, so we teaching him a lesson

The little poison Pokémon looked bad, covered in bite marks and bruises. He tried to defend himself to no avail. He was ganged up by 5 members at once. This isn’t battling, this is just abuse. It’s disgusting.

In that moment the girl snapped.

And just like the Trubbish, he was severely beaten. Her Dad was furious that night. They left her, tremor and the trubbish inside a trash can.

Eli: You little dumb trash bag. We weaklings have to stick together u know?

This is just fucking brutal.
>>

Now we know we only have ONE SHOT at any Gym of any kind, or it might just be game over for us. Let's keep this in mind for the future, yes?

i hope we can meet Daniel again sometime, wonder how hes holding up
>>
>>2845949
I wonder if Daniel is going to shoot up the school with his Pokemon anytime soon.
Or just neck himself
>>
>>2845955
>the bullies later realized that bullying the contest kid who used a remoraid wasnt the best idea
>>
>>2845917
>Now we know we only have ONE SHOT at any Gym of any kind
What? Where did you get that from?
From what can be inferred from Eli's Dad, it's just the the last gym, which are Dragon types, that have a stupid balls to the wall ultimatum of just one strike and you can't challenge them again, thereby screwing you over after busting your ass getting the previous 7 badges.
Which I gotta say, kinda fits with dragons types being prideful, egotistical assholes.

If people only had one chance at any Gym, there would barely be any trainers, considering the first Gym will be challenged by nothing but teens fresh out of school.
"Yeah, no, even though you're young and inexperienced and this is the first Gym, I'mma just ban you from ever challenging me again, tough luck kid, what are you 15? Go flip burgers or something."

Oh, okay, I misunderstood that part. Got it.
>>
>>2845964
>>2845917
See a part of me gets it, if you're challenging the Dragon type gym with the other 7 or at least most of the badges then we know you have the ability to improve, but can you take your one chance to reach the top when required, or do you let it slip out of your hands right when it counts? And if you're just some punk trainer challenging the gym too early then this is your punishment for your arrogance. At the same time, one or done, win or die, is an absolutely brutal way to crush someone's dreams. Who knows, Eli's dad may have been an elite four trainer or even the champ if he had gotten a second chance. We'll never know because he lost on his one chance. Brutal but damn if it isn't efficient. Still, we should try to spar with him and/or get some tips from him before Percy goes on his journey. He definitely has some wisdom he could share.

It's Saturday morning. You couldn't help too wake up early, you are just too excited.
Today is the day you get your license to become an Official Pokémon Trainer!

The sun is just rising, the only noise you can hear is some Pidoves and Taillows chirping outside. Whismur is snuggled up with a blanket by your side and Vulpix claimed one of your pillows as her own, your bed is getting kind of cramped. Mimikyu is… You actually have no idea where he sleeps at night but he always appears shortly after you wake up. Peering outside your window you see Houndour resting on Mr.Snob’s old house.

Is currently 7:00 am, the Tournament starts at 13:00. Your family is currently asleep but your parents and sister promised to come see you at the event. What will you do?

>Turn on the TV and check out the local news
>Get in contact with Eli so you’ll go to the tournament together
>Go outside and treat your team some breakfast
>Send Dick some links to “Poké-Cosplay Web-sites”
>Let’s talk with Houndour, since he is the one that’s going to fight

First things first. You feel you have a duty as a man.
You forward to your pal? Acquaintance? To Dick, some links you kept tabbed for “research” purposes. Nothing to raunchy, just some nice pictures or girls wearing different types of Pokémon themed clothing, yeah sure, some of them are a little skimpy, “risqué” even.
You just want to let him know you respect and share his fondness for such an incredible display of art, combining the tantalizing appeal of a woman’s body and the natural beauty of Pokémon, a real display of genius.

Percy: Hey man, I found these and I thought they seemed right up your alley

Percy: Hot-Safari-Zone.net/gallery/2721998

Percy:Don’t worry dude, this is a judgement free zone. I mean, it’s a lot more common than you think

Dick: Hmm, I’ve been interested in visiting one of these installations, and maybe a Fire-Type is just what I need for my team. I appreciate it Percival

Dick: NO! FUCK NO! THAT IS NOT A SAFARI ZONE!

>You got a new message!

[GREEN EMPEROR]: You got any more?


Now, let's get some nutrition
>>
>>2846244
A mon of refined taste.

You step outside of your house alongside your friends. Vulpix is pretty pumped about the tournament, she wants to see different kind of Pokémon duke it out.

[Vulpix]: Can’t wait to see what you are really capable of, big boy

[Houndour]: Piss off

Whismur also seems pretty excited about the whole event! Mostly because after it they will become and “official team”, still, she says she would’ve liked to get a chance to fight alongside everyone. Even though she’s pretty cheery she seems to keep her distance from Houndour, or is it the other way around?
And Mimikyu is just being Mimikyu, he’s pretty relaxed just chilling in your backpack

You thought about going somewhere nice but at this hour there aren’t many places open yet, and besides you don’t want to be late, there’s still some stuff you want to get done

>Get some standard meals from the Pokémart for you and your team: $400
>Current Money: $16,950

Vulpix is asking Mimikyu and Whismur against their fight with Froslass, she doesn’t believe the three of them manage to beat her! She always tried to challenge her to a fight but she never took her seriously, actually, most Pokémon in the White Room refused to fight with her, so she could only “Play-fight” with the other small Vulpix. Mimikyu gives his usual dry responses while Whismur goes in detail about the hard and grueling trial that was that fight, captivating the little Ice type attention. After Vulpix saw her bout with Ankhati and Alexandro she began respecting Whismur a little more.

Houndour eats his meal peacefully far from the others. He’s distancing himself a little from the rest of the team lately.

It’s time to have a serious conversation with Houndour. You get into position, mimicking his posture with your four limbs resting on the floor, you take a deep breath and start making growling sounds.

Percy: Everything ok big boy?

[Houndour]: You don’t have to do that, I’ve become accustomed to your human words

Percy: Yeah, but talking like this is easier, no? So, it’s everything all right?

[Houndour]: Yes. Why wouldn’t I be fine? They are the ones that are acting weird. Not me

[Houndour]: How can they be so comfortable with the idea of serving a Human?

[Houndour]: I understand Whismur, but the others…. Vulpix left her kin without a second thought, and Mimikyu is…. Mimikyu, he’ll jump of a bridge if he thought it would make you remotely happier

[Houndour]: They are not even bound by Pokéballs! They didn’t make some sort of deal with you! They are just here!

[Houndour]: How can they trust you so easily?! And how can you trust them? Why do you trust me? You leave me alone at night, with all the means to escape. What is wrong with all of you? Why haven't I left yet?!!

>You made a promise, and a man doesn't break their promises

>Cause you care about our little group, and we care about you man (mon)

>Eh, maybe I'm too trusting for my own good, but that's who I am

>Cause we are friends, you said it first

>Other/ write in

(This decision will help determine an aspect of Percy's personality and Houndour views of him)

I would've said Percy is too trusting but with how we handled worst girl I don't think that's the case anymore.
>>
>>2846418
>>2846418
>Cause we're friends. Maybe even family, a little, though it's probably too soon for that. I know that a lot of humans can be pretty shitty. You're not wrong, to be wary and distrustful. But we're not all like that.

The relationship between a Trainer and a Pokemon isn't one of servitude. At least, I don't see it that way. It's a partnership. Yeah, the trainer gives orders in battle, but that's because it's easier for us to understand the fight while we're not in it. We can remember more types and moves and use creative thinking, because we're not getting punched in the face at the moment. Two parties, two equals, working in tandem. Based on mutual respect and trust. I want what's best for my team, because only when they're at their best, am I at my best.

And we didn't choose the possible alternate thing where we could have seen Alexandro learn how to play vidya gaems with his stubby t-rex arms and hands.
Just IMAGINE how based he's gonna be as a Salamence. Not only does he have good taste in human girls in poke-cosplay, but he's also proficient in vidya. What else could he be able to learn and do in the future?!

Setting things up

The first one, the one about the group gives Percy a focus on his "Team" and also could lead to Houndour to start seeing them as a "Second Pack"

While the "Friends" option gave Percy a focus on his own friends (including the ones that aren't in his team) and established a more personal relation between him and Houndour
>>
>>2846475
Well Houndour could develop into seeing us as a second pack down the line anyway, so that's nice.
>>
>>2846474
Just realized that Mimikyu's personality is one that meshes well with Dick's while Alexandro's is compatible with ours.

It’s time to have a serious conversation with Houndour. You get into position, mimicking his posture with your four limbs resting on the floor, you take a deep breath and start making growling sounds.

Percy: Cause we're friends. Maybe even family, a little, though it's probably too soon for that.

You can see Houndour gaze at Whismur the moment you mention the family bit and quickly turn his eyes away.

Percy: I know that a lot of humans can be pretty shitty. You're not wrong, to be wary and distrustful. But we're not all like that.

Percy: The relationship between a Trainer and a Pokemon isn't one of servitude. At least, I don't see it that way.

Percy: And besides, whatever your decision may be, we’ll still be friends. At least that’s how I feel

[Houndour]: You make things difficult for me Human.

He sighed deeply, like he just resolved something.

[Houndour]: Enough words. We have various battles ahead. I’m counting on you “Partner”

Now, there’s just one thing left.

You message Eli to see if you can meet up and arrive to the tournament together. She’s down for it. Seems like she’s expecting her “Sensei” to be there.
You met on way to her home. She and her team seem eager to go! You bike together to the Public Battlegrounds, many trainers like yourself have already started flocking there. They seem to be about a hundred, they are probably going to have some sort of preliminaries once inside.
She apologizes once more for her dad, but you tell her it’s really no problem. He wanted to come see her but work called. Your folks will arrive later, once the proper tournament begins.
Seems like Dick and his mons are already here, he seems to be putting a necklace on Alexandro, is that a Dragon Fang?
Kali is here too, escorted by CG. Orizaba, he seems to be warning her about something.
Once the old Commanding General stops berating Kali he directs to you and Eli.

[CG. Orizaba]: I thought I told you girl to stay away from here…
He is pissed, you can feel his menacing presence as he closes by, Eli is doing her best to stand up and not falter

[???]: So, you keep harassing young girls? I guess old habits die hard

[CG. Orizaba]: What are you doing here Williams?

What is your grandfather doing here?

[Arthur]: Just wanted to see all these “promising new trainers” try their best, heh.

He mocks one guy dragging his Zigzagoon by the leash to enter the building,

[Arthur]: Such a bright future for Pokémon battling. Also, to give you this. Direct orders from the “Battling Association”

[CG. Orizaba]: You went to with the head of the association just for some Punk girl? What the heck Williams?

[Arthur]: Little shits will approve anything if you harass them enough.

Eli: Sensei! I knew you wouldn’t let me down!

[Arthur]: Don’t get too full of yourself. I did it mostly to see “Captain erectile dysfunction” angry

[Arthur]: Maybe I’ll stick around to see a match, so don’t make it boring

[Arthur]: And Percival. Two fairy types?

[Arthur]: Heh. Faggot. I really hope my disappointing son isn’t here too. See ya.
>>
So, this is the end until next session. Friday 7:00 or 8:00 pm MDT.

Get ready to make decisions, battle a lot and roll some dice.

Ah shit. Congrats to that one anon who called it. The grumpy nature of Eli's father could be explained by his dreams being shattered. Wonder if something similar happened with gramps or he's just naturally a dick.

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn

>>2846668
>I really hope my disappointing son isn’t here too
Wasn't Dad a Steel-type user? The hell happened to make gramps such an ass? He's okay with Mom and Sis though, so it has to do with Dad's side of the family, right?

Eli will like us more once she learns her Sensei and us shared the same blood.
>>
>>2846707
>He's okay with Mom and Sis though, so it has to do with Dad's side of the family, right?
Well he IS dad's side of the family so yeah. Odds are there's some personal grudge between dad and gramls and percy is only affected because he reminds gramps of dad or some shit like that.
