Reika's walk

[michi]

OOC:I wonder how Scratt's doin'

[Et Cetera]

Ooc: Me too...

[Kuku-kun]

Ooc: Me makes three, and I fixed my post. =D

[Et Cetera]

Twiggy: 30%

Toxic: 26%

Combusken: 16%

Charmeleon: 20%

"It's time to kick it up a notch..." Charles smiled and pointed towards Twiggy while he was still in the middle of using Aerial Ace. "Combusken, jump into the air---high above the Farfetch'd---and used Double Kick!" The bird obliged and, with the help of a tree, jumped high above Twiggy. As he came crashing down, he used Double Kick, ready to smack into his pestilant opponent.

Charmeleon, on the other hand, was having just a bit of trouble. He simply couldn't dodge such a widespread Gust, but instead, he fell backwards into a tree. "Charmeleon, get up and use Ember on that naïve Bug!" Without hesitation, the Fire-type stood up to it's feet and fired the Ember attack as Charles commanded. "Chaaarrrmeleon!" He called as the Ember grew dangerously close to Toxic. This one was sure to leave a burn...

[Ghost]

Kione shook his head and looked up, he had drifted off into his own little world.

"Oh hey guys." He said with a grin.
Kione walked over to Ash and picked him up, placing him with the other pokemon rather then leaving him on his own. Ash glared at Kione as his trainer left him with these strange pokemon, how dare he.

Turning from his trainer Ash stuck his head up in the air before looking at the new pokemon, he examined each of them carefully, not saying a word.

"So what are you doing here?" Kione asked the other trainers.

Reg looked at Michi, smiled lightly then held out her hand for Cyndi to sniff, glad of the distraction. "Best way is to bottle feed 'im warm milk and honey. But if you don't have any just sing lightly to him and pet him. If you want I can bring out Snover and have him use Grasswhistle on Cyndaquil." After the little fire Pokemon was used to her she began stroking his head soothingly.
She looked over her shoulder as Kione asked what they were doing there. "On our way to Astra City. Say, where's that girl you were hanging out with in Aura town? And that boy with the Beldum?" She vaguely wondered if they got lost in the Peilmac forest.

[scrattcacoon]

Ooc:; And I'm doing horrible, the altitude in Colorado is killing me. D;

[Et Cetera]

Ooc: You're ALMOST home then? Cool...? XD

Bic:

Jesse nodded, "Yeah, we're all headin' to Astra City. It'll feel good to be home." He looked around towards all of his friends and his brother, "That's where we live. Astra City. Beautiful place, really." He smiled and looked down at the wild Cyndaquil who'd just found her way over to him. "Oh, hey there..." He picked her up and ticked her long snout. "Still following Charles around, eh?" The small creature nodded and 'snuggled' in a bit, slowly falling asleep.

[Kuku-kun]

Ooc: Yayz Scratt! =D

Bic:

"Twiggy, go up with Aerial Ace!" Reika called to her pokemon, Twiggy flew upward, crashing into the Combuskin, taking some damage, but he was still strong. "Now that your close, use peck!" Reika ordered, Twiggy nodded and set off for the attack. While all this happened, Toxic got hit. "Toxic, another Gust, and make sure it hits both fire-types!" Reika called to her pokemon, Toxic nodded and flew off to make a powerful Gust.

[Et Cetera]

Twiggy: 23%

Toxic: 11% +Burn

Combusken: 3%

Charmeleon: 14%

Now that Combusken was high in the air, it was way too late to try to dodge the Peck attack. "Busk?!" It fell right into it, taking some fairly heavy damage and nearly knocking him out. It tumbled to the ground, barely able to stand on it's two feet. Charles stared at it for a moment, realizing the worst. "One last time---Ember on Twiggy!" Comusken obliged and sent the fiery attack hurling at Twiggy, hoping for at least one more hit before...well, the end.

Charmeleon, on the other hand, was hit with the Gust and knocked back (Combusken was too high in the sky. O.o Rhymes!) a few feet. "Charmeleon, use Ember on that pesky Bug!" Without hesitation, Charmeleon sent the same roaring attack as his ally, Combusken. Both attacks closed in on the opponents--one towards Twiggy and the other towards Toxic.

[Kuku-kun]

"Aww crap!" Reika said in shock, as both of the attacks neared her pokemon. Think...think,come on you stupid blonde think before it's to late! Reika thought to herself. Twiggy got hit, but for some odd reason, Toxic moved a few centemeters to the left, and dodged. "Now, Twiggy, Aerial Ace on Charmeleon, Toxic, Confusion on Combuskin." Reika said, happy that her pokemon were not hurt that badly.

[Et Cetera]

Twiggy: 16%

Toxic: 8% +Burn

Combusken: Fainted

Charmeleon: 14%

Combusken was obviously unable to dodge Confusion, which almost instantly caused him to faint. However, Charmeleon was a bit luckier. As the Aerial Ace neared, Charmeleon used his head and jumped as far as he could to the right, causing Twiggy to miss. "Charmeleon, Char!" It mocked the Flying-type before lashing out with a Scratch attack. And, since his partner was down, he attacked twice. He launched another Ember at Toxic, but this time, it'd hopefully hit.

[Kuku-kun]

"Toxic, you cant dodge this one, use an attack before you faint!" Reika told her moth pokemon, it nodded, and sent a Gust attack at the Charmeleon before getting hit with Ember. "Twiggy, use Peck!" Reika ordered her duck pokemon, Twig nodded and flew off.

[Et Cetera]

Twiggy: 10%

Toxic: Fainted

Combusken: Fainted

Charmeleon: 3%

"Charmeleon, head's up!" Charles called, trying to have his Fire-type dodge the Gust. But it simply couldn't. Charmeleon was tossed backwards and right into the pathof Twiggy, who used Peck. "Charmeleon, Char!" He yelled, almost knocked out as well. "Char..." It stood up carefully, only to use Dragon Rage on Twiggy. "Charr..." It growled, weakened by the attacks.

[Kuku-kun]

Twiggy got hit, but not all that badly, just a little scrape on one wing. "Now, finish it off with Aerial Ace!" Reika called to her pokemon after returning Toxic. Twiggy nodded, flying right behind the Charmeleon.

[Et Cetera]

Twiggy: 4%

Toxic: Fainted

Combusken: Fainted

Charmeleon: 3%

Charles took advantage of Twiggy's next attack. "Once he's close enough, use Ember! It'll either throw him off, or knock you both out! Either way, it's good!" He joked to Charmeleon, who immediately opened his mouth for the attack. "Char, Char, Charmeleon!" It launched the fiery attack, feeling the burning sensation going through it's throat. For Twiggy to actually hit him, he'd have to get hit with Ember.

[Kuku-kun]

Twiggy flew right through the Ember, bringing it with him. Sure... it did damage, but he wasn't going to give up, oh no, he'd never give up, he wanted to make his trainer happy... he wasn't gonna quit just yet. "You can do it Twig!" Reika cheered for her pokemon, in hope for a tie.

[Et Cetera]

Twiggy: Fainted

Toxic: Fainted

Combusken: Fainted

Charmeleon: Fainted

[Kuku-kun]

"Good job Twig." Reika thanked her pokemon and returned him. "That was... well, one of the best battles I've had in quite a while." Reika said, looking over to her other pokemon. "You guys can take a rest to." She stated, returning them all to their pokeballs. "Well, I'd love to talk for a while, but I better get going." She waved at everyone before starting to walk to the next stop.

[Et Cetera]

Charles nodded, returning Charmeleon as well. "Good job...you too, err. What's your name?!" He called to the mysterious girl, otherwise known as Reika. "I didn't quite catch it!" Now that the battle was over, he was calm, like usual. Before getting an answer from Reika, however, he jogged over to Jesse and the others.

"See, Jesse, I know how to battle just as well as anyone here!" Charles had both of his arms folded up and his eyes closed in triumph.

"I must admit---you did very well. I compliment you...same with Reika. But, it was a tie. Nothing to really brag about unless it was super close." Jesse laughed, which immediately caused Charles to glare at him. "Sorry..."

"Don't be..." His younger brother chuckled. "It's alright. Really...now, who're some of your stra----friends?"

[Kuku-kun]

Reika sighed and kept on walking, humming a song to herself. Hmm, what to do when I get to Astra City besides sign-up for the pkmn contest and challenge the gym leader... ahh god I dont know She thought to herself, after a few seconds, Sakura came out of her pokeball. "*Hi'eh Reika!*" Sakura said in a cheerful mood. "Why do you have to act just like May's Skitty?" Reika asked with a sweatdrop. "*May who? Anyways, who ya gonna use for the upcomming pokemon contest?*" The Dratini asked. "I dont know yet, I'll figure it out when we get there." Reika replied, returning Sakura to her pokeball. Soon she started wakling again.

[Et Cetera]

Without waiting for an answer ---again--- Charles waved to Jesse and his friends. "I'm off! I gotta go get my first badge. Oh, and I might just enter into the first Contest in the Region!" He winked and waved again at everyone. "See you guys later!" With that, he whipped his red backpack over his shoulders, turned around, and bolted for Reika. "Hey, wait up!" He called, trying to flag her down.

[Kuku-kun]

Reika stopped. "what is it?" She asked sighing and turning around to face him. Sakura popped out of her pokeball again. "*I dont wanna be in my pokeball!*" She said, glaring at her trainer. "Great time to show up Saku." Reika mumbled.

[Et Cetera]

He slowed down as he noticed she saw him. "If it's okay, I'd like to travel with you. You're a great trainer, what can I say?" He smiled and looked at the Dragon-type. "Awesome. You said her name was Saku? Short for Sakura, I presume?" He pulled out a Pokéball and tossed it into the air. "Meet my Vulpix." He smiled. "I have a Fire Stone, but I dunno if I wanna evolve her yet..."

[Kuku-kun]

"Sure... I guess." Reika mumbled, looking down at the Vulpix. "Cute, but I say only evolve her when she feels ready, if she doesn't want to, don't make her." She said. "Well, better get going." She added on, starting to walk again. Sakura right behind her.

[Et Cetera]

"That's the thing---I believe she might want to, but I dunno how that'll change her.." He started walking again, the Vulpix still sitting in his arms, content. "What do you think, Vulpix?" The Fire-type stared up at him and tilted her head. "You don't care, do you?" He laughed, picking up pace just enough to stand beside Reika. "You know...I have never really met anyone that looks so---" He paused, knowing it'd be better if he didn't say it now. "I never knew I'd meet such a great battler. You know, you'd make a great co-ordinator." After he spoke, his heart sank. What am I doing?! I just screwed it up by saying that...

[Kuku-kun]

Reika caugh on to his mistake. "Looked so what?" She asked, a glint in her normally dark grey eyes. "Hmm, thanks, and well yeah, I am going to compeate in the upcoming contest." Reika added on.

Sakura smirked God Reika, your so dunce when it comes to this stuff. Sakura thought.

[Et Cetera]

Charles shook his head. "Just forget about it...we have a long ways ahead of us. I'd say at least another few miles. Plus, it seems to be getting kind of late..." He smirked and pointed to the sun on the horizon. "We have a couple hours of daylight, yet, so let's not waste it." He pulled Vulpix up higher to ensure he doesn't drop her and continued walking. "Maybe I should evolve her...get it over with...nah."

Ooc: Let's make another board under Route 13 so they can continue here.

[Kuku-kun]

Ooc: Okay.
