"Thank you Professer Elm!! I'll tell mom you said hi!!" Alissa calls out as she exits the lab. Her new Charmander was led by its little paw, as startled as she was, she didn't bite her. Alissa stops and turns around to look at her new Charmander. "You know... I think I'll call you Igni, how's that?" Igni looks up at her, clearly with all the sparkles in its eyes it liked the name. Alissa pats Igni on the head kneeling down now. Igni was now face to face with Alissa.
Alissa smiles and looks at the pokeball that contained Igni. "Do you like it in there?" Igni looks at it and seemingly shakes her head no. Alissa takes it and puts it in the bag, where she would normally put very important items. "Alright then, you and me, no pokeball. Please make sure to keep close though, we have to pass through route 29, and most likely there will be wild pokemon." Igni nods, not truly understanding what exactly what her trainer was going on about. However the two words "stay close" clicked in her head.
As they began their walk, Alissa paid close attention to Igni's actions as they went. Igni was excited to say the least, "Charrrr..." was the sound Alissa heard, it made her smile. After all this was her first Pokemon, it was special to her. Also, to her, it was the beggining of her journey to become a Pokemon Ranger. A very important step on a mountain of other steps to overcome. Then suddenly a rustling could be heard in front of them.

When they looked for the rustling sound, they noticed a nearby bush which was shaking quietly. If they moved closer to take a look on what was inside, they would find nothing. The bush was completely empty! I had to be the wind. No matter if they continued or not, another rustling would be heard which soon prooved to be yet another bush shaking. It stopped as soon as they looked atit though, but started again if they looked away only to stop again should they turn to look at it againIf the bush was investigated they would find that one empty too. This continued for a while, shaking bushes which were empty and only shook when they didn't look at them, and only one at a time. If it was the wind, it behaved really strangely. Suddenly while they moved closer to a bush which had just stopped shaking, a thud was heard and a round brown figure rolled around in the grass. It was a hoothoot who had been tripping over a branch on the ground why was it running around on the ground? and now it got back to its feet and looked innocently at Alissa and Igni, before it blinked with its huge eyes and shook its feathers free of dust.
A (Level 7) Hoothoot is spotted! Is that the one who is teasing you? What to do? (OOC: Be aware of controlling the enviroment. It isn't a problem this time, but perhaps I had had something entirely different in mind for your, where the rustling would have been in the way

After searching about the area following the rustling sounds in and out of the bushes. Mind you, there were quite a few of them. Igni began to fall behind. Alissa finally noticed this after a few minutes and walked back towards her prized possession, "Oh Igni, I apologize. I just got so caught up in finding out where that rustling was coming from." She reaches down to pet Igni when suddenly Igni pops her head up and her tail flares. Alissa looks behind her and sees a HootHoot standing there.
Its big round eyes looking quite innocent at her. Alissa stared blinking her eyes at it, she almost forgot what to do. "Igni why don't you say hello, ummm.... Growl, but not too loudly, you might scare it off." Little did Alissa know, she just began a battle...
Igni, not knowing what she truly meant let out a growl, "Chaaarrrmaaannndeerrrr!" Igni let out a loud one. Alissa covers her ears and sighs.... "Uh oh... I think you might of overdone it with that one Igni." Alissa says giggling, "Sorry HootHoot, please don't be angry at us...."

“Hooooooot... hoot hoot...” the rotund owl blinked its third eyelid to get the last of the grit from its eye. Its feathers rustled, attempting to loosen the sand and dirt that coated the feathered creature. Again, it complained to no one, voicing its frustration with himself to the world. “Hoot hoothoothoothoot! Hoot hoo-hoot hoo!” It was fairly obvious the words, when translated to its tongue, weren't kind nor polite ones. Cooling down from its rage, the Hoothoot began to glance around. Its eyes landed on the trainer first, and it seemed to freeze, its right leg frozen halfway into its ascent to being tucked up against his body. “...H-h-hoo...hoot?” it questioned, obviously unnerved about running (well, rolling) into a newbie trainer when she was, most likely, out to capture Pokemon of every species, size, age, and ability. All newbies went through that stage, in its opinion. And then it saw something bright flicker in the corner of its peripheral vision, and very slowly turned to see what was beside her, although it already knew what it was. The only Pokemon that came across this Route with visible flames was Charmander. It prayed it was wrong, and that it instead was something else. A Chinchou, perhaps. Unfortunately, its first assumption was correct. A Charmander, with gleaming orange scales and deep sapphire eyes, stood before it, tail waving, the flame on the tip larger than normal, having flared when the Hoothoot tumbled down. “Hoot hoo hoot-a-hoot-a-hoot hoot hoot. Hoo hoo hoot hoot-a-hoo hoot hoot hoo.” It jabbered, trying to convey that no, it didn't want to battle, and two, it was not a threat. Well... It appraised Igni. To it, it appeared the bird was slightly stronger than the lizard and, upon hearing what it assumed to be an order of an attack (having heard only 'Growl!' from Alissa speaking), decided to attack first. As though only just realizing it, the leg finished its rise, vanishing in the plentiful feathers that rounded out the Hoothoot's form. It gave itself a final good shake, then dug its deadly talons into the loosely-packed dirt. With a deep breath, it shoved off against the ground, and barreled forward, using its wings to hover just an inch above the ground, perfectly able to change direction if Ignis attempted a dodge. But there was no need, as Ignis didn't have time to do much other than brace herself for the impact, digging furrows into the ground with sharp claws, hunching in on herself, hugging herself, and wrapping her tail around her waist. The owl struck her in the stomach, knocking the air from her lungs in a whoosh! that stunned her. She stumbled back, wheezing, while the owl fluttered back, shaking its head from the impact. Ignis took a mere moment to recover, and took advantage of the Hoothoot's closeness to unleash her Growl. With bared fangs, a (admittedly cute and very unscary) Growl spilled from her gaping maw. The cute-ness of the snarl caused the owl's guard to drop, lessening its attack. After their two turns, the two untangled and went to their respective sides; Igni standing in front of Alissa, Hoothoot standing across from her, as they waited for the other's next move. Battle

"Uh oh.... Igni I think you made it mad.... Really mad, wait extremely mad," she went on as it continued to rant on. Alissa wasn't too sure what the bird was trying to convey, but a HootHoot was a convenient bird to find. Its round shape and large red eyes adding to its cuteness. That was until it charged at Igni. Alissa tried to warn her little pokemon, but it was no use it plowed right into her stomach. A successful Tackle if she was correct.
Igni, when HootHoot was close managed to get off her growl, which was good, but still she had taken a lot of damage from that one attack. Alissa feels an urge in her, just to grab Igni and run away, but this was her first battle with a wild pokemon. Her own mother had prepared her for this. "Igni, try for a Scratch next." However before Igni runs off Alissa kneels down next to her and says, "Igni I know you can do this but, never be afraid to run away. I support you no matter the outcome." Alissa Smiles at Igni and then looks to the HootHoot.
Hoping it might do damage, she had already fixated that this bird was a bit stronger than your average HootHoot. Its all in the fun of battle, but this was her first Pokemon battle outside her home. Hrmm, she had to think of something quick, or this might be a dire situation indeed. Maybe if she used the bushes, but then Igni might start a fire with its tail, no good. Igni was well on her way to use Scratch, running towards HootHoot it swipes at the bird once close enough.

The hoothoot and indeed puffed out all its feathers and looked offended at Igni, like it had just been minding its own businees, when the fire type had rudely attacked it! For no reason! It promtly started to clean its feathers and ignored Igni until she growled at it. It paused to look arrogantly at her when she growled, before it returned to its cleaning. It stopped when the human started to talk. It still didn't knew much about the two-leggeds language, but it understood that much, the charmander was given another attack. It glanced worried at them, before it shook and pretended it didn't care about it. Such cute pokemon as Igni, couldn't do anything scary after all, no need to be worried. It forgot all about its act when Alissa whispered something to her pokemon, and narrowed suspeciously its eyes at them. Which plans where they hatching? It shifted from one foot to the other, though it looked like it was just standing still on one, as it tried to guess what they were up to. Its eyes never left Igni as it wouldn't risk to loose her and falling into whatever they were planning against it! It stared at Igni like it couldn't believe its own eyes, when she ran straight at it. It couldn't be meaning to do what the trainer had said, she had just sounded so sweet and innocent, the human surely wouldn't sent it out to attack her directly. It had to be something else since cute pokemon who didn't know how to battle, wasn't sent into a fight they could not win! But what were they planning, what would Igni do the moment it believed it really would attack it with her claws? "Hoo-oot!" It exclaimed surprised as Igni really did attack it and sent some of its feathers flying. Battle

"Hoo-oot!" exclaimed the bird as Igni hit it with her Scratch. Even Igni was surprised that it actually hit. However she knew better than to celebrate now. The battle had only begun, "Good job Igni!! I didn't know what that HootHoot was going to do, smart as they are." Alissa says. Igni gets a pat on the head as soon as she returns to her side. Igni had never felt this kind of..... Kindness, not even from her own parents, having two Charizard as parents, wasn't the ideal matchup. Flames spout everywhere, it was a wonder she even survived all that.
Alissa looks at HootHoot and smiles "Your doing good to you know!" She not only wanted to capture this pokemon, but she wanted to befriend it in the process. Hmmm "Be aware Igni, go in for another Scratch, but do be carefull." This bird could do some serious damage and she needed to watch out for it. Alissa looks at HootHoot a smile still reaching her lips, but a look of utter determination in her eyes. "Go Igni, go!!"
Needless to say, Igni was inspired by her trainer. The kindness and full belief that she put into Igni was overwhelming and led to Igni fighting that much harder. She wanted to win, for her, to show her that she was stronger than that HootHoot. "Char.... Char.... Mander!" She ran at HootHoot again, but this time it was like she had an entirely new focus. Moving in closer she prepared her attack.

With encouragement from her new trainer, Igni was ready to go and lay another scratch on this Hoothoot. The Charmander was dashing forward determinedly, but was stopped in the middle by the Hoothoot's loud voice. The round feathery fluffy bird stared intensely at the Charmander, as the battle adrenaline fueled the Pokemon's passion and focus into the fight. The bird opened its beak, and after inhaling enough air, release an annoying coo toward the Charmander, warning Igni to be careful about coming any closer. The noise wasn't ear-screeching like a Screech attack, but it was good enough to slow down the Charmander. Still, Igni wasn't about to disappoint her trainer, and her new friend? The fire type picked up where it was stopped at, and charged forward. The Hoothoot switched between its two legs frantically, bouncing erratically as if trying to dodge by hopping inconsistently. Soon enough, Igni swiped her young claws on the Hoothoot's feathery body. The growl earlier had definitely helped Igni to "be careful" on her attack. Battle

Igni watched the bird as she ran towards it, when suddenly it growls at her. Startled she stops momentarily to regain focus and runs up again hitting the HootHoot with another scratch attack. The HootHoot. "Alright Igni!!" Alissa yells and smiles wide. Igni runs back to her side staring down the bird once more. Igni awaits command as Alissa ponders the next move.
Alissa looks at the bird, it seemed quite lively still, considering it had taken two attacks from Igni. Definately a stronger pokemon. She had to weaken it a bit more before she could attempt to catch it. Alissa smiles at the bird, "Your mine.... Igni go for it one more time!! Attack with Scratch!" Igni looks up at her trainer and sees the smile on her face.
Charmander approaches a bit more cautious this time, seeing as the HootHoot caught her off guard last time. She tries to act casually as she moves toward it, going in for one more attack.

The Hoothoot puffed itself up, waiting for the trainer to announce her attack. It would choose its own based on that. You used Leer? It'll use Growl to even things out. “You're mine.... Igni go for it one more time!! Attack with Scratch!” the command had barely left her mouth when its diamond-shaped wings flapped once, twice, three times, and it took to the sky. One, two, three circles, and it dove down, flattening its wings to its body. There was no way that it could miss, what with the small battlefield. 'Yeeeeeeeeeee!' it screeched as it dove down, gathering as much speed as it could. The owl slammed into Igni at full speed, knocking her back. The impact sent the less-dense bird tumbling back, talons flipping over wings. It lay on its back for a few moments, talons sticking straight up and spread, eyes wide open. After regaining her footing, Igni spread her claws and raced forward, scratching the downed and stunned avian. It tumbled head over tail feathers before slowing stumbling into the air. Battle

Igni gets hit hard, she could tell by the look on her face that the battle needed to end fast. There was only one way to do this and Alissa readied herself for it. The bird was still floating so she had to make it land somehow. Alissa looks at Igni and kneels down next to her once again. She whispers into Igni's ear.
Use growl. was what Igni had heard when Alissa whispered in her ear. Quickly the Charmander looks at HootHoot and smirks. She keeps her eye on the bird, trying to think of what she could do to bring it down. Igni then decides to run into a bush acting afraid of it. Alissa looks at Igni and smiles slightly.... "Your tail is still sticking out!" Igni had a plan though, in her own head. Once the bird was close enough, she would catch it off guard with her growl.

"Hooot... Hoooot.... Hoot" the bird crowed softly, as if telling Igni that it's waiting for the next turn of attack. Its gaze never really left Charmander either. Its blink was swift that it was barely seen. Then it saw the Charmander smirked. Wait, what was it doing? The Hoothoot hopped on the ground, trying to catch up where the Charmander is. At least the flying Pokemon can see the tail sticking out! "Hoot. Hoot. Hoot. Hoot." The Pokemon tried to get close. Sure, the bush can disguise the Charmander, but Hoothoot got its way to see the Charmander. Its eyes glowed pink, and then its eyes shot a pink beam of light, completely filtered the obstacle bush that was... inefficiently trying to hide Igni. The Charmander blinked, seeing that she had been found. Then, seizing her opportunity, she growled loudly. The sound wasn't enough to rustle the bush, but it was enough to travel through the air and annoy the Hoothoot again. The bird shook its head a bit in an effort to comfort its ears, but the effect was done, as Hoothoot could feel its muscles relaxed a bit after the Growl.

Ahh, it had worked.... Somewhat, though now with HootHoot distracted she had to make sure it worked. She didn't know if she was being a bit overzealous or cocky, but it was a chance she was going to take. While the HootHoot looked away from her, she grabbed a Pokeball from her bag and rolled it around in her hands. Igni.... Backed out of the bush and sighed.
Looking at her trainer, she wondered why she waited to do anything. "Char, Charmander," she says to Alissa. "Okay here goes nothing, Pokeball Go!!" She yells loudly.
The battle had been going on for some time now, but she was determined to get something done. The ball soared towards its target. Though Igni began to watch the ball that was thrown at the bird, she suddenly felt tense. "Char..."
Used 1 Pokeball

With the inclusion of a Pokeball into the fight, it had altered the outcome of this battle entirely. No longer was it a fight for dominance, which beast had superiority over the other. It was now a case of welcoming a new member to Alissa's sortie. Leaving her hands and soaring towards its target, the Pokeball honed in on the target Hoothoot. Having been distracted from the fight itself, the sudden surprise of having a metallic orb being thrown at it made the owl cry out in a shrill manner. Dabbing the owl mid centre of its body, the ball burst open, enveloping the bird Pokemon in its radiant light, absorbing it into the centre of the wondrous technology. Now securely inside, the Pokeball did what it did best. Rocking back and forth, it was processing the newly acquired Pokemon. Once... Twice... Thrice...

HoothootName: Alistare Gender: Male Level: 7 Moves: Tackle, Growl, Foresight, Hypnosis Ability: Insomnia Nature/Personality: Hasty Alissa looked in awe as her Pokeball flew, tapped on the bird and drew it inside. Then the anticipation of the ball rocking side to side. It rocked once..... Twice..... Three times and.... An audible click was heard. Igni was the first one to the ball. She looks down at the ball and with one tiny paw, presses in the button. Suddenly it opens and out comes her new HootHoot. Alissa gasps and runs up to her new friend. Without even thinking she picks him up and hugs him tightly. "I'm calling you Alistare. Do you approve?" She sets him back on the ground and waits for a reply. Alistare sits there for a moment and looks at her, quickly changing feet, it coos softly in approval. Alissa looks at him and says, "Well Alistare, meet Igni and Igni meet Alistare. Igni looks at Alistare and walks up to him. "Hello Alistare," She says, "I'm Igni and the other one in the other pokeball is Cerin." Alistare looks at Igni and turns away from her. Still not happy with battling when he didn't want to. "Igni you are a fool..." Alistare clicks the button on the ball again and returns into it. Seeing Alistare act that way, she walks up to Igni and being careful not to touch the flame on her tail. "Oh he'll get over it soon, but come on lets continue." She picks her up and walks further down the route.
