Hello, and welcome to the wonderful nation that is Tohea. However, Hurst is not that wonderful. In fact, it has one of the highest crime ratings imaginable. A day doesn't go by without there being a theft, mugging, or something far worse. Although, if you stay on the main streets, you won't have too much of a problem. It's the dark alleys that you have to watch out for. A young girl is a prime target here. You arrived here by ferry and then a bus ride. And, if you were paying any sort of attention to the conversations around you, then you would have heard an interesting tale. Apparently, Pokémon have been becoming extremely scarce for some unknown reason. If you even manage to find one, it would probably be a Rattata or a Pidgey if your lucky. They even mentioned that Pokémon vanished in battle too. Only wild ones though, so your Turtwig is safe. Finally, after it felt like forever, the bus stops at the station. The other passengers get off in an orderly fashion. You get off too and take in that city air, almost gagging on the smell. Oh, yes, the center of industry would smell that bad. Well, now that your here, what will you do first? |

After a ferry and a bus ride, Hikari felt slightly bored and cooped up since she wasn't really able to move around. She had paid attention to bits and pieces of conversation that interested her, but beyond that, nothing much piqued her interest enough. She had heard of disappearing Pokémon, and sighing softly to herself, she realized that she wasn't going to be able to catch much Pokémon in this time and weather. And with all these phenomenons happening.. the chances seemed slimmer than ever. Hikari got off the bus, immediately feeling glad that she was wearing a mask that covered her mouth. Her hand moved upwards to pull her mask upwards, up towards somewhere halfway on her nose to mask the smell somewhat. She had nearly gagged at the foul smell, but now that the problem was solved somewhat, her priorities came straight. She was here to learn; she would do just that. A second later, Hikari had opened Remix's Pokeball, and the Turtwig emerged in a flash of brilliant light. Shaking his head, Remix looked up, grinning at Hikari. She then picked him up, carrying him in her arms. "OK Remix," Hikari said, walking down the nearest route. "Here we go then." |

Hmm? You want to skip all the wonderful sights of Hurst? But there is so much to see! Sarcasm, got to love it. I honestly do not blame you one bit for wanting to leave as soon as possible. However, I don't want to go through the hassle of moving your journey, so something has to happen. I promise it won't be too aweful. As you were walking to Route 1, a boy walked up to you. He looked pretty smug with his spiked black hair, shirt, pants and shoes. You might as well consider him gothic by the general look of him. He held out a Pokeball in front of you. Then, he said, "I challenge you to a battle, one on one." He dropped it to the ground and in a flash of light, an Ekans appeared before you. Will you accept this kid's challenge? Lv. 6

Grinning, Hikari glanced over to the boy. The boy was generally looking to be on the goth side. When he challenged Hikari to a battle, extending his Pokeball to reveal an Ekans, she was forced to rethink her initial decision. Remix was weak to poison, since he was a grass type. She didn't know the level of the Ekans... "What do you say Remix?" asked Hikari, looking at the Turtwig in her arms. Remix wriggled a bit, not giving a response. "OK then, we'll take you on!" She smiled at the boy and released Remix. The grass Pokémon then fell to the ground, landing perfectly. Maybe after this fight she can get some more money for future usage. "I'll use my Turtwig if that wasn't obvious..." Bending down to be next to Remix, Hikari started to whisper. "OK Remix, listen up. Here's the description for Razor Leaf: a Pokémon fires several sharp-edged leaves at the foe. In this case, you fire the leaves on your head," Hikari poked the leaves on Remix's head lightly, "I think you can spin the little shoot on your head Remix. Try it." Hikari then smiled at Remix, trying to encourage the little Pokémon to try to understand the theory and execution of the attack before attempting to use the attack. It was admittedly, a little dangerous to be doing this, but Hikari is naturally clueless in the face of danger. It could even be called bravery if you wanted to... "Ready to go?" she asked the boy. |

*Sarcastic laughter* Dangerous? Lets see... your in Hurst, facing a goth kid with a poison type. I would say so. Oh, and your trying to teach your Turtwig a new move in the middle of a battle. So you know, here in Tohea, we have a Global Attack List. It lists moves that all Pokémon can use. It also helps during those tricky situations like you might soon be in. The goth scoffed at you before saying, "I've been ready. Ekans, use Leer before you strike with Wrap." Yes, well, the only command you gave was for Remix to attempt Razor Leaf. May I say that it could have been a little wiser to do this later? You can always stop and do a regular battle at anytime, just after this round. The Ekans slithered across the ground and reared back, Leering at Remix. He shook slightly as he concentrated on what you said about Razor Leaf. Remix shook his head trying to make his leaves move. Admittedly, it did work, to an extent. Two little leaves fluttered to the ground in front of Remix. Maybe you need to be a little more precise on what you want. Theory and execution just aren't enough. All the while, Ekans was slithering around, waiting for the failed attempt to happen. It was then he coiled himself around Remix, squeezing tightly. Your lucky the kid didn't ask for Poison Sting. So, what will you do now? Lv. 5 ![]() 30/35 96%(Defense -1, Wrap: -2 Hp every turn) VS. Lv. 6 ![]() 35/35 93%

Hikari smirked back at the guy. "Good to hear that. Remix this is it, use Withdraw, chaining into Headbutt! Try to go for the neck," she ordered. Withdraw would negate the lowered defense, and Headbutt.. well if Remix was Wrapped, a Tackle wouldn't work, would it? Anyway, she glanced over at the goth boy calmly. "So, have a name?" she asked him, flicking one of her stray ponytails back over her shoulder. Her hair was black and silky. She then thought for a while: Wrap was going to hurt Remix every turn until the Ekans decided to let go.. it was time to think about a plan that would work. She smiled at the other boy, being a bubbly girl herself, it was of no problem to be friendly. Goth didn't mean he was a mean guy.. Or was he? Don't judge a book by its cover.. "Remix, you can do it!" she cheered in from the sidelines. Remix gave a confident nod back, attempting to draw himself back into the shell. Hopefully that would make the Ekans grip slacken around him.. or if this was some weird unlucky day, Ekans would be wound too tight around his body. |

((I forgot to mention Razor Leaf is 10% complete)) Go for the neck? Ekans is all neck! A little humor can break the tension of a difficult battle. Oh, and what's this? Your asking your opponent for their name? It is only proper after all. He said, "The name's Drew. Now, Ekans, since your at close range, use Poison Sting. Keep up that Wrap attack." Uh oh, that's not good for you or Remix. I wouldn't be surprised if your Turtwig gets poisoned before this battle is through. Turtwig used Withdraw and pulled himself in his shell, to an extent. This loosened Ekans' grip, but the slack was quickly taken up by the snake. Remix quickly popped his head back out, slamming into the snake. The Wrap was undone and remix escaped. Frustrated on losing his prey, Ekans launched a barrage of Poison Sting. There was some space between them now, so it didn't do all the damage it should have. That's lucky for you anyway. The kid took it in stride and said, "That's good, now, strike with your egg move." Hmm, that might be problematic. Ekans has some strong egg moves, a few of which are quite powerful. You might want Remix out of the way of that one. Lv. 5 ![]() 22/35 88%VS. Lv. 6 ![]() 31/37 85%

Hikari nodded at the boy. "Drew right? I'm Hikari," the girl said, smiling at Drew. It seemed that he was good with his Ekans.. why did she even take him on in the first place? So it was her pride again.. Frowning a little as Remix took the hit, their eyes connected and Remix nodded. "OK Remix! Listen up! Use Withdraw, and stay in your shell. Try spinning towards Ekans then Tackle!" Hikari commanded, and Remix nodded again. She wasn't sure if the plan would work.. it wasn't the best.. She crossed her arms and flicked a ponytail backwards, over her shoulder as she watched the battle. When Drew wanted his Ekans to do an egg move, Hikari panicked a little. Egg move? Ekans had Poison Tail and maybe Poison Fang for egg moves. Uh-oh.. it was bad, since both attacks were pretty dangerous and against Remix, he probably wouldn't stand a good chance.. "Remix, after Tackle, stay in your shell, no matter what!" Hikari ordered, focusing a little. |

I'm running out of inspiration, so I'll just go through what happened. It's what you want anyway. Remix quickly tucked himself in and started spinning like a top. Withdraw also raised his Defense which may help stop those pesky attacks of Ekans. Ekans watched the spinning grass type with interest before hissing threateningly at Remix. From your distance, you could see something drip from his fangs, but you couldn't be sure if it was saliva or poison. Your Turtwig kept spinning and rotated his way over to Ekans. The last few feet were much faster than his approach, thus slamming into the snake. Ekans recoiled from the blow and then went to chomp down on Remix with Poison Fang. However, your Turtwig was still spinning, which deflected the attack and gave Ekans a couple of sore fangs. Your next move? Lv. 5 ![]() 22/35 80%(Defense +1) VS. Lv. 6 ![]() 26/37 80%

After Remix slammed into the Ekans, then landing on the ground, and smirked, Hikari smiled back at Remix. "Good job Remix!" she said, smiling at her Turtwig. Her plan worked.. The pain should stop the snake Pokémon from attacking with that attack again.. unless.. it was really resilient to attacks.. that would really suck. She frowned a little, before nodding encouragingly at Remix. "Remix! Withdraw, then Skull Bash!" she ordered. Withdraw would mean that Remix was in his shell.. then he would be protected. Then on the next turn he would strike. It was risky, yes it was, definitely, but a battle wasn't without its risks.. Hikari nodded at her green colored Pokémon. "OK, let's do this!!" Remix nodded, then tucked in his head, then limbs once again. Just like before, but he wasn't chaining it into a Tackle.. this was different. He will try his best, definitely. He wasn't going to let Hikari down, not when he trusted her and she trusted him.. He felt energy spiraling up to his forehead as it charged with energy for the upcoming Skull Bash, he could do this, yes, certainly he could.. Hikari smirked. She was lucky the first time.. would she be lucky the second? She hoped so, since it could mean loss or victory. It was a fine line between both terms.. very, very fine.. One wrong move and Remix would be wiped out, how terrible that would be.. yes, yes, it was.. Her smirk disappeared, in its place, worry formed.. Edited by light.eden, Jan 18 2009, 06:39 AM.

It is appropriate to worry at times, like this battle. You have a type disadvantage and your opponent has grass-trumping moves. It does appear bleek from your perspective, but there's a cheerful side too. That would be Drew's perspective. You could see a coy smile on his face. He was schemeing of something just now. He then said, "Ekans, use Agility to boost your speed and then Poison Sting." Remix ducked in his shell again, boosting his defense again. Ekans could be seen focused with his eyes closed for a few moments before opening them and sliding around much faster than before. A glow could be seen coming from the front of your Turtwig. Ekans shot the Poison Sting from a distance, making sure not to get too close. The barbs either struck or missed, mostly missed. However, once the barrage subsided, Remix popped out and ran full speed at Ekans. He tried getting out of the way, but just wasn't quite fast enough. Ekans got slammed hard and was sent reeling. He hissed in frustration but awaited further commands before doing anything rash. The round just ended, when you and Drew both noticed the changing sky. It had been rather dreary since you arrived, but it looked like there was a storm coming, a strong one. It might be best to finish this up real quick and find shelter. The clouds looked quite turbulent. Lv. 5 ![]() 16/35 73%(Defense +2) VS. Lv. 6 ![]() 19/37 74%(Speed +1) |
