SubonicXP The Wooper would attempt to turn its sights on the Scatterbug after being hit and bound by the String Shot, displeased with this worm's antics. As the Wooper began to build up mud in its gullet for a Mud Shot the little Wimpod found the courage it needed in itself to execute another Aqua Jet, the tiny bug sending itself crashing into the Wooper with a watery tackle. The Wooper would be pulled free from the String Shot binding it to the ground as it was sent splashing into the pond just like before. This time however the Wooper wouldn't stay in the pond for long as it came running out of it, its tail giving off a white glow as it prepared a Slam attack, ready to slug that annoying Wimpod with it. "Scatterbug! Try a Struggle Bug!" Fela called out. The Scatterbug would appear unsure of itself as it closed its eyes and tried to focus, but nothing seemed to happen. The Wooper meanwhile would get closer and closer and eventually leap into the air, intending to come down with its tail and Slam Wimpod. As the Wooper fell something finally clicked in the Scatterbug. "Bug buuug!" Cried the Scatterbug as it wiggled its body wildly and sent an array of wiggly strings of Bug energy at the Wooper, the 'strings' slamming into the falling Wooper with surprising force. The Struggle Bug would prove to be just enough to finish off the Wooper as gravity took care of it as it hit the ground right in front of the Wimpod, knocked out cold. "We did it!" Fela cheered. [Wimpod receives 1 Evo Point.]
Tristen didn't put that much of a celebration like Fela did; having defeated many a Pokemon, both wild and trainer owned, but at the very least, Wimpod actually managed to step up for once instead of running off back to his ball. "See Wimpod, no big deal. You did good too, you know." Tristen said, but as he went down to check on Wimpod, he then started to notice something. Wimpod started to look kind of sick. "...Wimpod, are you alright?"
"Paaa..." It moaned out. Tristen then started to recall earlier the attack he made. This was the looks and symptoms of a Pokemon poisoned. But that he was aware of, Wooper didn't have any opportunity to actually let loose any Poison Attack. Or at least that he knew of. But then he recalled something during the extent of the battle. "Wait...Fela, do these Wooper have some sort of ability that can poison someone? Like Poison Touch? Maybe Poison Point? Or something like that?" Tristen said, trying to get his pack back off of him to find an antidote. |

SubonicXP Blizzard120 "Paaa..." It moaned out. Tristen then started to recall earlier the attack he made. This was the looks and symptoms of a Pokemon poisoned. But that he was aware of, Wooper didn't have any opportunity to actually let loose any Poison Attack. Or at least that he knew of. But then he recalled something during the extent of the battle. "Wait...Fela, do these Wooper have some sort of ability that can poison someone? Like Poison Touch? Maybe Poison Point? Or something like that?" Tristen said, trying to get his pack back off of him to find an antidote. "Poison? Hm...oh! That's right! They have Poison Point. They were used as a local example when we were learning about contact moves. The slimy film surrounding their bodies is poisonous to the touch. Sorry I didn't warn you, I guess I forgot." Fela said with an ashamed laugh but for the most part moved on. "At least it's not a Clodsire. Those things are way more poisonous. Small things to be thankful for I suppose." "Any who, your Wimpod seems okay now that you healed up its poison status, and he did pretty good out there!" She complimented the little bug. "Want to find us a new target? Pick your poison! ...all pun intended." She giggled at her joke.
Tristen started to dig around in his pack, finally finding an antidote as Fela started to recall just what a Paldean Wooper possibly had. That explained it...though it was weird, the mucus on it was the poison part to it? That...is really vile. He remembered that the water type variants also had a mucus like that, but it was to retain moisture, not a deterrent to others. Worse...Clodsire? Presumably this regions evolved Wooper. Even more toxic. Lesson quickly learned for later. Tristen quickly took out an Antidote and started to administer the medicine to his Wimpod. "You okay, Wimpod? Easy there..." As the Antidote started to take effect, the Wimpod spoke out, starting to sound a bit better. At least as good as a Wimpod usually would sound. "There we go..." he said, rubbing the Wimpod's back. "Not too bad."
"Paaaa." it spoke up.
"It'll be alright Wimpod. You were doing fine. Keep it up, alright? There's nothing to worry about." Despite that reassurance, the Wimpod stayed close to Tristen for the time being. "Alright, let's go find something else to battle." Tristen would lead his Wimpod away from the bank and started to look about the area. It wouldn't be long until he noticed something close by. A familiar Pokemon...something he saw earlier that afternoon. "Wait...thats one of those Pokemon that Gloria had earlier..." Tristen said, pointing out towards the Lechonk. |

Fela perked up as Tristen pointed out the Pokemon, one of which he declared was similar to the one their fellow classmate had. Before she laid eyes on the Pokemon in question she knew what he was talking about and started to respond as she turned her head. "Lechonk, they are a very common around these parts." She began. "Usually Lechonk is one of the first Pokemon new trainers capture just because of how common and easy to handle it is. Just a simple Normal type. Kind of cute though, and they have a really good sense of smell."
"Either way looks like as good as a target as any. Ready, Scatterbug? Let's get the jump on this one. Use Tackle!" Fela commanded the bug.
With a chirp of a cry the Scatterbug would begin to rush towards the unaware Lechonk, emboldened by how well it did in its first battle and figured it could easily replicate its previous success as long as it did what this human told it to. The Lechonk however would become aware of the Scatterbug as it rushed it and in its panic let out a frightened squeal, waves of Fairy energy carried with the sound, said energy attacking the Scatterbug at its very heart.
"B-bug!?" The Scatterbug would recoil in pain, ceasing its Tackle and looking around confused, unsure of why it just felt pain. That didn't happen last time, what was going on? The largely untested Scatterbug was now standing there dazed and vulnerable, the Lechonk however far more battled hardened, even on these peaceful routes, and new exactly what it wanted to do next.
"Chonk chonk!" It cried as it pawed at the ground a few times before rushing towards the sitting duck of a bug, executing its own Tackle attack, its with a lot more of intent behind it. |

SubonicXP "Chonk chonk!" It cried as it pawed at the ground a few times before rushing towards the sitting duck of a bug, executing its own Tackle attack, its with a lot more of intent behind it.
Tristen would lead his Wimpod to the front, getting him ready to support Scatterbug just as he did before, but as soon as he done so, Fela would quickly jump the gun, sending Scatterbug head first into the pig. Tristen couldn't help but to jump at the screech the hog made, but worse, took notice to how Scatterbug got caught in what appeared to be an attack. That seemed to be similar to a Disarming Voice if Tristen didn't know better. Regardless, that caught the Scatterbug off guard and now the pig was on the warpath.
"Oh no...Wimpod, hurry. Help out Scatterbug! Use Aqua Jet!" He said, needing speed to get in between the Lechonk and the Scatterbug.
Perhaps wondering how it got roped into this, let alone not all too thrilled as to how it was out of its ball and trying to battle again, he still nonetheless sped across the field and went to intercept the pig, meeting Aqua Jet with the pig's Tackle. If nothing else, Tristen wanted to make sure the Scatterbug didn't go down by any means. |

If nothing else, Tristen wanted to make sure the Scatterbug didn't go down by any means.
The Lechonk would be denied its target as Wimpod came in with Aqua Jet and rammed straight into the pig, the pair sent flying through the air away from Scatterbug. The pig would hit the ground unceremoniously with a bit of a splash, promptly stumbling back up to its feet, now soaking wet.
"Lechonk..." It growled under its breath before exhaling hard through its nose, a sound that was meant to be intimidating but instead came out as an 'oink'. Fela couldn't help but giggle. The pig would then gulp and close its mouth tight, its cheeks them swelling up as something built up inside. The contents would soon be revealed as it launched a nasty ball of mud at Wimpod, this time a successful Mud Shot lobbed at it. The mud had some unique properties as well, as Tristen might already know, it was thick and pretty heavy, making any Pokemon coated in it slower. |

The mud had some unique properties as well, as Tristen might already know, it was thick and pretty heavy, making any Pokemon coated in it slower.
As it recoiled back as the attacks collided, Wimpod ended up shaking its body to try to get over the attack. The Lechonk would end up recovering from what it got put through, albeit unamused from being drenched from the attack and retaliated upon Wimpod. "Wimpod, look out!" It finally perked up, just only in time to see the Mud Shot come at it and splatter upon the bug. While the physical damage was minimal, the psychological was a whole other thing. It was getting more on edge, and worse, now it was trying to fight with mud that was sticking him to the ground, if not weighing him down. Aqua Jet isn't going to be that good of a fix for this.
"Wimpod, calm down! Can you Sand Attack?" Tristen shouted.
"Paaa!" it screeched out, more than happy to comply, not wanting to be part of this fight any longer. Wimpod started to dig into the ground itself and kicked up all manner of dirt towards the Lechonk to try to blind the hog. |

SubonicXP Clare and Amaranth would make it to math class on time, the teacher Ms. Tyme greeting them with a smile and a wave as she did all students as she stood at the door on the other side. Noticing the new faces she would briefly introduce herself. "Hello! You have such pretty blonde hair! You must be Amaranth! I'm Ms. Tyme, glad to have you." She would say to Amaranth. "Hello! Wow your skin is mesmerizing! You must be Clare! I'm Ms. Tyme, I'm happy you're here!" She said to Clare. She would then tell both girls to find an empty chair and have a seat while they wait for class to start. Once the bell range Ms. Tyme would close the door and walk to her desk at the front. "Welcome class! Are we ready for some fun with numbers today!?" She almost shouted cheerfully, this was definitely a woman who loved her subject. Amaranth would find herself sitting next to a pink hybrid of some sort. They almost seemed like a sort of bird what with the beak but even that was shaped really strange. Furthermore she couldn't see any wings but she supposed they could be hidden behind the large pink feather cape they were wearing. Wasn't there a uniform? The hybrid would notice Amaranth looking and gave her a little nod before turning their attention back to Ms. Tyme. Clare would also have an interesting student sitting next to her, a boy thinking he was being sneaky as he took hits of some sort of vape pen underneath his desk when no one was looking, but with this many eyes someone was going to see him. His uniform looked stained with some sort of greasy substance and his hair looked like he hadn't had a haircut in years. He smelled of gas-like fumes. Someone needed to keep better care of themselves. No one light a match around him.
Clare took their seat with a smile and a wave to Ms. Tyme but little else to say for the moment. Numbers were hardly anything they considered "fun" but they were willing to give the woman a chance to change their mind. At least once. Upon finding a seat and setting their things down, they'd look around at the rest of the class to get a feel for who was present and, perhaps, attempt to get to know some of their classmates just a bit before class started. They'd lock eyes with a young person of indeterminate, at first, gender. After a bit closer look, however, as they took a hit off of some odd little device that looked kind of like a pen yet produced a thin vapor as they exhaled. Along with the vapor came a disgusting, acrid smell that stung their nose for a moment.
Waving away the smell with their one hand, they offered a small, almost pathetic wave with their shattered arm, forgetting that it was missing for a moment. With a small cough from the burning smell to clear their airway, they spoke quietly. "Hello! Anything special I should know about this class? It's my first day." |

SubonicXP With a cry the worm would rattle its body and would send a slow moving cloud of Stun Spore at the pig. The Lechonk would have been able to get out of the way any other time had it not been blinded and would stumble right into the cloud as it flailed around. After taking in a big deep breath of Stun Spore its vision would partially return to it, oinking in a panic as it took a few steps back out of the cloud but then suddenly tensed up, fully paralyzed. "Now is our chance, Tristen, Wimpod!" The girl called out to the pair.
Fela with her own encouragement to the Scatterbug managed to get the bug type to start shifting this battle more in their favor. "See, Wimpod, its no big deal. Its okay, you got this! Use Struggle Bug!" Tristen commanded. "Let's take it down!" The Wimpod rushed and made his way to the paralyzed hog. Ever so on guard, it started to lunge out and struggle with the Lechonk, trying to effectively strangle it into submission in its own weird way, clamping down tight and making sure that this pig wasn't going anywhere. |

Ever so on guard, it started to lunge out and struggle with the Lechonk, trying to effectively strangle it into submission in its own weird way, clamping down tight and making sure that this pig wasn't going anywhere.
The pig could do little to fight back in its paralysis, oinking and squealing as the bug strangled and nipped away at it. By the time the struggle was over the Lechonk was passed out on the could, knocked out cold. The wild Lechonk fainted.
"And that's another one down!" Fela cheered, kneeling down to give the Scatterbug a high five, however the bug had no idea what this open palm meant and just cocked its head in confusion. "Haha, it's okay, I'll teach you that one later." She said, then standing up and turning to Tristen. "You pretty good at battling, and I think the two bugs here are starting to get into the swing of things."
With that said she looked over at the sun setting in the horizon and began to scan the general area. "It's getting late, why don't we get one more battle in before calling it. See anything nearby?" She asked Tristen.
(Wimpod earns 1 Evo Point.) |

Tristen makes his way over towards his Wimpod and checks on him. There didn't seem to be a whole lot of damage; Wimpod has been doing pretty good in trying to keep anything off of Scatterbug's case, but despite all of that, Wimpod was highly on edge. "Wimpod, hey..." he said, picking the bug off the ground again. "I know its tough, but you're doing real good, and look, Scatterbug is doing good too thanks to you. Everything is fine." he said, having the bug-water Pokemon look at the well being of Scatterbug. "There's nothing to worry about, okay?"
"Paaaa."
When Fela addresses Tristen again, Tristen looks up towards the skies, now realizing that it was in fact getting kind of late. Dinner would be pretty soon for the region and he wasn't all too certain that Fela uses the Cafeteria after hours or what she does. It was a little regrettable that he didn't meet with Fela and Penny until when he did after class, but it was how the proverbial cards were dealt. Either way, they need to wrap up soon. "Just keep at it. We're almost done for today, okay? Just one more." Wimpod starts to sink in Tristen's arms again, not really wanting to touch the ground again if it had any say in the matter.
"Alright, then...let's see what we can find..." Tristen said to Fela. Tristen was hoping to come across more Pokemon he was unfamiliar with, at least those within the region, and hoping that nothing that would be too much for the likes of either Scatterbug, let alone Wimpod. As he noticed Flying types go on by, which looked to be Fletchling, he knew that was asking for trouble. And if he could help it, he would probably prefer not to test his luck on another Poison type like that Wooper from earlier. He then took note to something up in a nearby tree. Tristen stared in confusion for a second, taking note to something in the tree. A spider like Pokemon...he didn't think it was a Spinarak or Joltik or anything of that sort. It was covered in webs, much to his confusion for some reason. Last he checked, the webs were to be perched on, not wore like a coat...
"...huh...Wimpod, sit down for a second, will you?" he said, sitting the Wimpod on the ground. Tristen took a feel of the tree. Kind of hard. Tristen wondered if he couldn't give the tree a good enough of a shake, kind of like a Pokemon headbutting a tree to shake loose anything. Tristen wound himself, readying himself, taking a couple of deep breaths. "One...two..." And with one hard lunge, thrusting his foot right into the tree, giving it one fierce kick, as hard as he could. Regardless if it got the desired effect, it got Tristen to reel and skip back, wincing hard and then shook his leg to try to shake the pain of kicking a fairly sturdy tree. |

Fela would follow after Tristen, carrying Scatterbug with her. She was confused as to why Tristen was so interested in that particular tree but said nothing and just watched and waited to see what her pupil was up to. When Tristen kicked the tree she flinched briefly, watching as something fell out of the tree.
"Tarouuun!" Hissed a small green spider as it hit the ground, shaking its ball of silk as if to intimidate the tree kicker, a string of silk still connecting it to the tree.
"It's a Tarountula!" Fela declared, recognizing the Bug-type immediately, they weren't exactly rare anyways.
The Tarountula would immediately go on the attack as it skittered backwards quickly, jumped off the ground and then swung in the air aimed at Tristen himself, its body giving off a faint white glow as it used a momentum assisted Tackle.
"Tristen watch out!" The girl cried out. That Pokemon was attacking the trainer! |
