Dark Cave Ahoy!(F)

{OOC: Joey has already gone and added this post towards my egg so he asked me to post a message so I do not get double credit as I do not want to cheat.}

IC:

As Marchbaby left the pokemart he headed towards the dark cave. He had heard a fair share of rumors that a few rare pokemon lived there but most people could not explore it because it was so dark. Luckily March had already made plans for such an exploration and taught his Magnemite Flash shortly before he entered the Union Cave. Although the Union Cave was a bit dark he had heard it paled in comparison to the Dark Cave which had absolutely no light at all according to some of the conversations he had heard while walking around Violet City. Marchbaby had been wanting to explore the cave for a while and since his Magnemite was so close to evolution he figured this would be the perfect time to go and explore the cave and see if the rumors were true.

As Marchbaby left Violet city he walked along the route which led to the mouth of the cave the snow outside he started to pile up so he figured that it was just another reason to find the entrance fast before he froze to death. It was not a long walk to the cave and after just a few moments he found the entrance. Just from looking at it he could tell that the snow had not entered the cave and that it would provide a good cover from the storm as he waited out the blizzard before he headed to the Ilex Forest. Once he entered the cave it became nearly pitch black and he could not even see his hand right in front of his face. Marchbaby figured that it would now be a good time to use Flash. "Shocker use Flash." he ordered as the Magnemite started to glow which at least made it possible to see even if it was only a dim light.

The young trainer started to walk deeper into the cave as Shocker floated in front of him lighting the way. Marchbaby was not sure if the rumors of rare pokemon were true but he did not plan on leaving until he found out as he hoped the light from Shocker might attract a guest or two.

[Alex]

As it was used to living in the dark from the cave, not to say it never got in the light, but it's eyes were used to the dark at the moment, Geodude wasn't in the best of moods when the Flash activated. It's eyes were burning because of the insanely bright* light that was coming from that Trainer's Magnemite. It blinked it's eyes several times until it could see well enough to attack the target, when it could see though, it was a bit annoyed to see that all of it's friends had left already because of the light.

They wouldn't be helping in putting an end to the light, they'd simply run off to some other darker section of the cave. Why did Geodude need to do everything for them? Why was it that only it had been angered enough to fight this injustice? Did they want Trainers moving in on their home? Capturing them? That sounded horrible, so Geodude was determined to fight it, and to do so by fighting this single Trainer who was likely not trying to do anything Geodude thought he was.

So the Geodude went over to Marchbaby and Shocker, before trying to Tackle the two of them in an attempt to turn the light off. It still couldn't see properly, so it of course missed but it's intentions were quite clear regardless. This became more noticeable when the Geodude turned back around and came after the two of them once again. At this point the Rock/Ground Pokemon would do anything to shut that light down.

The fairly dim light continued, and seemed to grow brighter every second for the Geodude, and of course it was even worse this close to the Magnemite. It could go blind in a few seconds at this rate! What kind and merciful being could do this to a Pokemon? To make it suffer this much!

Wild Geodude (Level 11) appeared! It's attacking in rage!

*Geodude's exaggerating a lot bit.

[Deleted]

Marchbaby had been looking at the walls of the cave wondering when something might jump out at him. He had not been paying attention ahead of him whatsoever and he did not even notice the Geodude which had tried to Tackle him until it passed by. Marchbaby could not tell what was wrong with it but clearly it was mad and it did not like the light Shocker had created using Flash and he knew that he had better be careful. He knew Geodude were not usually very violent but this one seemed like a temperamental pokemon to say the least. He did not like how it was staring at him with such evil eyes however he knew Thunderbolt could not hurt it so Shocker could only use a single damaging attack but Marchbaby did not know how effective it would be against Geodude.

Shocker had a huge level advantage over Geodude but Geodude did have a huge type advantage which left March a little worried about what he should do. He wanted to level up Shocker one more time so he could make use of his birthday cake and level Shocker up again so it would evolve into a Magneton however there was also a few other pokemon that Marchbaby wanted to raise as well. "This would be the perfect chance to raise Bonecrusher but Shocker is so close to evolving oh what to do what to do?" He said to himself as he looked at the Geodude. Knowing that there were certainly other Geodude in the cave however caused him to sway his mind into keeping Shocker out and stick to his original plan. He then looked at Shocker and nodded as March had made his decision.

Shokcer had grown use to using Sonicboom and the magnet pokemon knew that this was no different than the other times. Marchbaby knew that the draw back to Sonicboom was that it did set damage but in this case that was way better than the alternative which was to do nothing. "Alright lets just get this party started already Shocker use Sonicboom." The young trainer said as he hoped he made the right choice.

[Sky]

Shocker hovered a few feet above the ground, remaining calmly detached from the battle. Staring at the Geodude, the Magnemite swirled the magnets floating at its sides, creating a shock wave that sliced through the air with remarkable speed. As it hit the Geodude, it knocked the rock Pokemon back, causing it to roll across the floor. Unfortunately, while there was such a huge difference in the two Pokemon's levels, the attack wasn't as effective as Shocker would have liked.

Grumbling, the Geodude pulled itself back upright with a grunt, rubbing its head. The ungodly light coming from that Pokemon was still blinding it, but it could vaguely see where Shocker was. The Geodude decided to opt for a change in tactics. Reaching blindly behind it, it grabbed a good sized rock and hurled it in Shocker's direction. Closing its eyes, it heard a hollow clang and grinned in satisfaction. Clearly it had hit the Pokemon dead on. Squinting through nearly closed eyes, the Geodude was disappointed to discover that the Magnemite was still floating in place and still shining that damn light everywhere. The Rock Throw had hardly done any damage...

}OOC: The mystery of the Easter egg is about to be solved. Also just as a side note Sonicboom does a set 20 damage to all but GHost types just to let any future mod know.}


IC: Marchbaby covered his ears as Shocker began to twist the magnets on it's body. Given the small amount of the cave he could see he knew there would be an echo but he was not sure how loud it would be. As for Shocker Magnemite did not have ears so it did not have to worry about any loud noises caused by it's attack. As the waves of the Sonicboom attack hit Geodude Marchbaby could tell the attack was not as strong as he had hoped but it still did pretty good damage since unlike other normal type attacks Sonicboom caused set damage to Geodude. Marchbaby could tell by the look on Geodude's face that it was not expecting to take so much damage from a single attack but he wished Magnemite could learn Dragon Rage since that would have knocked out Geodude in one hit.

Marchbaby still was hoping to end this battle quickly as he wanted to find a Mawaile and a Wynaut and according to the rumors both pokemon appeared in the cave although Wynaut was thought to be very rare so he was prepared to stay a while until he found one. He then remembered that he had a rare candy that he had won in the lotto that he could use after the battle to make SHocker evolve more quickly but since he needed to raise his team anyway he was not sure if he should use it yet. One thing was certain however and that was that Geodude could not take another Sonicboom attack and the experience gained would help Shocker get ever so closer to evolving so he decided to go ahead and put the rock type out of it's misery. He then turned to face SHocker who was more than willing to hit the Rock type again after it threw a pebble which put a minor ding in it's armor.

"If Geodude were not so common and if I knew a trainer who would raise you I would capture you however seeing as how I do not I figure knocking you out is the best option as you would just sit in my PC bored to death due to how little time I would have to raise you as I already am backtracking to raise other weaker members of my team." he said in a sad tone before Shocker got ready to launch one more attack. "Geodude please forgive me, Shocker use Sonicboom one more time." The young man said as he waited to see the results.

[Sky]

Still ticked off that the Geodude had managed to slightly dent its metal body, Shocker darted about, angrily searching for the offending Pokemon. Sensing that it had caused a great blunder, the Geodude had opted to hide from the annoyed metalic creature. Curling up into a ball, it disguised itself well against the rocks that littered the floor of the dark cavern. As the Magnemite floated overhead, the Geodude froze in place, making sure not to make even the slightest sound. Once the rock Pokemon was sure that Shocker had passed by, it slowly reached out a hand and grabbed a large rock, intent on launching a sneak attack on the Magnemite.

The Geodude's plan came to a screeching halt as the rock Pokemon turned to take aim and found itself face to face with Shocker. The Magnemite was even more annoyed now that it had discovered that the Geodude was attempting to put more dings in its body. Without bothering to back up, Shocker spun its magnets again, unleashing an unearthly screeching that had the Geodude paralyzed in fear. After holding the energy back, Shocker let go, launching a powerful Sonicboom at the Geodude.

The poor rock Pokemon didn't stand a chance. Both Pokemon were launched backwards by the force of the attack, but Geodude was out cold before it even started rolling across the floor. Shocker, who had been sent tumbling through the air, righted itself with a huff. It was satisfied with the knowledge that the creature would never again think that it could best a Pokemon such as itself. Turning back to Marchbaby, Shocker buzzed contentedly, spinning its magnets in an almost happy fashion.

{OOC: I just checked with Joey and he said that the egg hatches the turn after the requirements are met so it actually hatches in my next reply. Just as a side note my egg requirements were not updated last time but I met them as of my last reply so whoever replies to me next please keep in mind that my Easter egg hatches. I will not be able to reply until Wednesday so there is not rush to reply to this or my other thread. }

IC:

Marchbaby could not help but feel bad about knocking Geodude out. He did not want to do it but he knew it was better than selling it for profit or keeping it in a pc since it could at least remain free this way. He then looked at Shocker who did not like knocking out a pokemon that had no hope of winning but it at least gained experience from the battle. Shocker was very close to evolving and he knew that just a few more battles would be all that he needed to evolve it into a Magneton. The young trainer knew how useful a Magneton could be and since he had heard that the next gym leader used Normal types it would be very useful indeed. What he did not notice was how close his egg was to hatching until he started hearing moaning come from the egg.

Upon hearing the noise Marchbaby looked in his backpack and saw that there were many cracks in the egg as well as the moaning noise which he figured that it would hatch any moment. He figured that there was no point in keeping the egg in the backpack anymore as he did not want whatever pokemon was in the egg to suffocate so he just held the egg in his arms hoping it would hatch before any more visitors came along. Knowing his luck a pokemon would probably jump out at him right as the egg hatched but he hoped for the best as the eggs cracks started getting larger by the second. "This thing is going to hatch any second." he yelled as he tried to peer into one of the cracks to see what pokemon was in the egg.

Sadly the cave was too dark and even with flash he could not make anything out but he was happy that he was about to have a new pokemon. He knew it would be a while before whatever was inside would be able to fight as well as Shocker but since he still needed to raise his Mudkip anyways it would give him more of a reason to go back to New Bark town once he captured the pokemon he wanted since it would have been a wasted trip if he did not capture them before leaving.

[The REAL Joey]

March was right on the ball as usual. The frenzied movements from inside the egg must have been notable enough for him to realise that it was indeed reaching its hatching moment. Tumbling around, the egg seemed unable to hold still. Had this been placed on a table it would have likely fallen off the side and cracked itself open. However, without so much as a helping hand to achieve the feat, it would require the utmost strength of the Pokemon inside to break itself out of the fragile prison. Making its last ditch effort, the mystery Pokemon hidden inside began using its stubby little fists to punch at its walls. As it did, small shards of the egg began to fly off in all directions and it wasn't long before it had shattered most of it so that it could be born into the world... A... Err... Very dark world it was at that. Being born into the Dark Cave was likely a memorable experience that would stick with the infant Pokemon as it grew up. Breathing heavily from the heavy punches it had done, the Pokemon egg had finally hatched!

Congratulations!
Your egg hatched into an Easter Happiny! Take good care of it.

Unfortunately, before March could truly get a look at it, the hyperactive bundle of joy literally leapt out of his grasp and went charging off into the darkness, just outside the illuminated encirclement given by his Pokemon. Perhaps stirred up by March's yell about the egg being ready to hatch or it was generally quite hyper within its nature was debatable at this point but the one certainty that was undeniable was how dangerous this murky cave was for young, newly borns to be waltzing around in. The hidden danger wouldn't wait either, just as the baby Happiny went charging off, one of the cave's many denizens honed in on the loud, childish giggles of the Pokemon.

Enjoying the dark, lonely solace the cave offered, this was an affront to its existence. Slowly moving and sticking to the shadows, the lurking predator got close and closer. With an odd low sounding growl, the Pokemon lashed out with its incredible maw. Hoping to gobble up the cutesy little snack, the Happiny unsuspectingly dodged it as it dashed off a few steps to the left having been enticed by the sound of falling water droplets from the top of the cave. Letting out a terribly cry with its mouth, the monster was in fact a Mawile and was now furious it had missed on its first attempt at eating the Happiny.

Just to point out Happiny only comes in Female so there should have been no choice but me being gone for so long may be part of the reason that was never noticed.

IC:

Given the darkness of the cave Marchbaby was glad he did not trip on anything as it hatched into a little Happiny. He could tell the little one was scared since it could barely see anything and to make matters worse it had ran off into the darkness which he knew was not very good. As Marchbaby ran after Happiny he was stunned to see a Mawaile run after it barely missing the poor new born. "That was way to close to comfort and this is not how I wanted to run into a Mawaile but since I ran into one I am not letting it get away." He said as Shockers Flash seemed to attract the Mawaile. He then realized that since both pokemon were Steel types he might be able to trick Mawaile into a false sense of security before nailing it with a Sonicboom.

"Shocker that Mawaile seems to like you I think we can use that to our advantage so long as you keep it away from Happiny." He said as Happiny ran over to him. "Well that solves that problem but we still have to try and keep that thing under control as it has a big mouht that can chew right through flesh and I am not going to be it's snack." The young man said as he looked at Shocker. "Shocker try to fly a few feet to the right so that if it charges it will not run into us and then use Sonicboom once you are in position." He said as he waited to see if the attack worked.

[Morrigan]

As Shocker's flash continued to light up only a small rocky area of the endless darkness, the Mawile seemed to slowly stepped forward into the edge of the light, cautiously. Shading it's eyes from how bright things were all of a sudden, the steel type wasn't all that happy with this strange, blinding, brightness. Used to having the dark as it's protection now that this trainer and his floating screw were poking about, dashing back into hiding would be difficult. Plus it still wanted to desperately chomp down at that new born. The mere thought causing the giant maw of the back of it's head to drool excitedly. Turning so that the small frame of the Pokemon was facing towards Marchbaby, it's tiny frame and crimson red eyes looked up innocently. Of course, trying to play cute now for the chance to eat Happiny would end in failure, especially as it's maw flapped angrily in barking like motions of an enraged animal. Sighing, it had no choice but to battle now.

Squinting as Shocker floating away a little from Marchbaby's side, the Magnemite stared down at the wild creature, blinking it's single eye. Calling out with it's metallic cry, Shocker was trying to make sure the creature was focused on it rather than it's trainer. Following his rules by floating to the right, March's plan seemed to have worked some as the more curious side of Mawile trailed after the floating Pokemon. Only, as it stepped forward into the edge of the light once more it was in for a nasty shock. The magnets on the side of Shocker's body began to spin, conjuring up energy in which it soon turned into blasts, shooting them off in a straight line directly for Mawile. Getting hit right in the stomach, the tiny Pokemon was sent flying back into the darkness, colliding into a boulder of sorts judging from the sudden crash.

Keeping it's sense on guard, Shocker needed to be careful. Looking around in all directions, the Mawile was bound to jump out from anywhere, it could even aim for David himself. Slowly beginning to float forward, the silent Magnemite rattled in the air, a sudden huge maw flying out from the darkness and readying a bite. Although the sight was shocking, as soon as the fangs actually bit down, it was the poor Mawile who was in for the most pain. Feeling the sharpest of it's teeth chip away due to the strong steel of Shocker's body, a high pitch squeal of pain echoed from the small creature. Spitting out Shocker, the steel typed hopped on the spot. It's tiny hands trying hard to comfort it's maw which now suffered from tooth ache.

[Deleted]

Marchbaby let out a sigh of relief as Mawaile fell for his trapped and focused on Shocker for just enough time to be able to launch an attack at it without Happiny or himself in the way. He knew Mawaile were pretty smart pokemon but this one clearly had not learned to keep an eye on all of it's opponents and it seemed to take a pretty nasty beating because of it. "Great Job Shocker now Mawaile cannot tell what it should do next. I do not think it can take another Sonicboom however." the young man said as he watched the Steel type recover and charge towards Shocker with a Bite attack. Despite it's high attack and large mouth the attack did almost nothing so he knew this battle was almost over.

Watching the Mawaile he noticed that it did not seem to like light all the much and after being hit by Sonicboom Mawaile seemed a bit angry as well. He knew Shocker's level alone would allow for a long drawn out battle but he had hoped it was just weak enough to capture it so that he could look for the other pokemon he wanted in the cave. "I am surprised to run into a Mawaile so quickly given you small population but you are a fighter and I give you credit for that but you cannot realize your full potential unless you join me." he said as he grabbed a Great Ball out of his backpack and firmly grasped it in both of his hands. He had plans to raise this Mawaile which would prove useful against Whitney especially since this one was female and would prevent any of her pokemon from using a successful attract attack.

"You will be of great use against Whittney as well as Shocker and Rocky once he becomes a Steelix due not only to your type but you gender as well not to mention the fact that I only have a handful of female pokemon right now." The young man said as he got ready to throw his Great Ball. "Go Great Ball capture Mawaile." he said waiting for the results.

[Morrigan]

Still holding onto it's large maw as it howled around in pain, the smaller face of the Pokemon turned, almost interested in the male's words. Blinking it's large, crimson eyes, it peered up to the male. He seemed to know alot about it's species and how they lived, plus he claimed to unlock it's full potential? It didn't quite understand yet still wanted to listen a bit more. He moved onto explaining his purpose of wanting to battle the tiny steel type, it's eyes quickly glancing between the Magnemite who it knew already was called Shocker, then a few other names alongside his. Confused, the Pokemon didn't want to be captured all that much. Battles were rare in this dark cave and it didn't want to be tugged out of it's home easily just to help some stranger. Sighing softly, it's small hands released it's maw which whipped around to the back of it's head once more. Turning her front so that this dark, snapping mouth of drool and fangs faced Marchbaby, it appeared to be asking to continue the battle to test his strength further. However, it was far too late. Marchbaby had tossed the blue Great Ball forward, watching as it soared through the darkness and tapped the head of the shocked Mawile. Squeaking in surprised, it was drawn inside. Tumbling to the floor and shaking from left to right, it seemed to rattle more than normal as the Mawile slashed around frantically inside, trying to get out.

WIGGLE. WIGGLE. WIGGLE.

TING!

Congratulations!

Marchbaby has successfully captured the Mawile!

OOC: Omg that was really lucky. Mawile's capture rate was only something like 18% and you RNG'd a 12. *O*

[Deleted]

OOC: I still cannot get over how lucky that round was and I think I may be the only member with a Mawaile. Anyways could you please transfer Happiny to my PC and put Regenbogen in it's place. I finally plan on raising the little bugger.

Also using the rare candy I have which image no longer works on Shocker to evolve it into a Magneton. I would also like to use my birthday cake on Rocky, Regenbogen, and Bonecrusher please. Also can you move my Lucky Egg onto Bonecrusher please. Sorry for the large request but I finally can use it after all these months.


Mawile
Name: Snappy
Gender:Female
Level: 12
Attacks: Astonish, Fake Tears, Bite
Ability:Intimidate
Nature/Personality: Snappy is fairly aggressive even for a Mawile. She never backs down from a fight and has even learned to fight in complete darkness thanks to her hailing from the Dark Cave. She loves hanging out in dark places since her home was dark and she cannot stand bright light. In the event she does not get her way she uses Fake Tears to trick Marchbaby's other pokemon into giving into her.

IC:

Marchbaby was stunned that his attempt to capture the young Steel type went so easily. Knowing Mawile love to fight to the bitter end caused him to believe he either really got lucky or this Mawile really liked him. What really made him happy was the fact that he had captured 1 of the 2 pokemon he had been after already and he had barely began to explore the cave. There was one other pokemon besides the one he was looking for that he would not mind capturing but Wynaut was the main thing he was now after. Given his luck with Mawile he was hoping to stay on a high streak but he knew Wynaut were rare and he figured he would be here for a while.

"While we are here now that you leveled up Shocker I can finally give you this Rare Candy so you can evolve and while I am at it I will use my portable PC to transfer Regenbogen to my party and put Happiny in my PC for now." The young trainer said as he watched Shocker evolve. After watching the evolution he remembered he still had a Birthday Cake he could split between 3 of his pokemon as well. "Since Shocker got a treat Regenbogen, Rocky and Bonecrusher can share this cake as it will increase all of your levels by 1 as well as your happiness." He then smiled as his pokemon consumed their treats.

"I wish I had something for Shellshocker and Atropos but sadly I do not for the time being." The young man said as he realized how much of a commotion he was making. "I hope all that noise did not scare any pokemon away as I really want to do more training." Marchbaby said hoping he had not been too noisy.

[Alex]

It was no longer that dark in the so called "Dark Cave", not that it mattered to the Pokemon best suited to the dark. Zubat had evolved without eyes, using echolocation to find their way, it didn't matter what time of day it was, they could "see" anything that they needed to. Though, this meant that their other senses were enhanced as well, in particular their hearing, and all the noise that Marchbaby and his Pokemon had been making in their Battles only served to attract the curious bat.

Most Pokemon would move away from the noise, knowing it was an intruder, or some other kind of threat, but this Zubat was bored anyway and decided to check out what was going on. If it was a threat of some kind, Zubat could simply fight it off and become a hero, or at least that was what it was thinking when it had decided to head over. It already "saw" that the noise had been coming from a Trainer and his Pokemon thanks to it's echolocation. So that had settled the matter, if Zubat had any doubt left in it's mind. It would fight off this Trainer, and take back it's home. A bit of light wasn't going to bother a Zubat.

Zubat let out a screech as it came in at it's target, it was flying over to Marchbaby in a quite visibly hostile manner, but was at a slight disadvantage since the lack of sight, meant that it couldn't tell there was any light, which would allow it too be easily seen by the Trainer and his Pokemon. It was simply assuming that nothing had changed because it had no idea of knowing that it had, for all a wild Zubat knew, Trainers could see in the dark anyway.

Wild Zubat [Level 15] wants the glory of kicking you out of the cave!

[Deleted]

Marchbaby could not believe how much brighter Flash became when Shocker evolved into a Magneton. He knew the saying three heads were not always better than one but in this case it sure helped when it came to lighting up the cave. The one problem was that since the pokemon in the cave were used to darkness he worried the bright light would keep them away. His fears were put to rest however when a Zubat came flying towards him like a bat out of hell. "I hate Zubat's they are so annoying not to mention their speed making them a hard target to hit." he said as the battle flew around the room trying to use echolocation to find where he was. The good thing about Zubat was it could not use it's eyes to find it's way around it had to use Echo's which meant that if he could either create echo's of his own or use something that moved fast enough to disrupt the echos he may be able to confuse the bat.

However he remembered that Rocky was getting close to becoming a Steelix and beating a ZUbat would really help him get one step closer to evolution and as such Marchbaby figured it was best to use Rocky first. As soon as he threw the pokeball on the ground the giant rock snake managed to somehow or another fit into the small cavern in the cave. Onix were well at home in caves and were not afraid of Zubat's at all so to Rocky this was just training however Marchbaby knew Zubat were deceptive pokemon and he did not want Rocky to let down his guard. "That ZUbat is pretty fast so be careful out there Onix and use Rock Throw." The young man said hoping for a lucky hit.
