With a new 'friend' in tow, yes, Alissa and Igni would get to continue on their path. But just because the first battle of their journey had ended didn't mean that they would continue their little journey undisturbed. Like a Zubat flying from the gates of the underworld, a small Pokemon came rushing from the bushes. It was a Rattata, small and with both purple fur and sharpened buck teeth that, oddly, more resembled some type of tiny fang. A strange, if common, Pokemon indeed. Perhaps even more common and more strange was the person following this creature. It was a young boy - Maybe 12 or 13 at most - out of breath from what must have been an arduous run following the rodent. "Oh come on Rad, why do you keep running away from me? I wanna show you to all my friends, so they'll believe me when I talk about how awesome you are!" the boy said, a slight whining tone to his voice. "Maybe I just don't wanna be seen as the Pokemon of an idiot rookie," the Rattata, unfortunately named Rad, squeaked in its Pokemon speak. Of course, this message went unheard by the boy. Rattata had already noticed its only viable escape route being blocked by Alissa and Igni, but the boy had still yet to notice the older girl. Until now. "Oh, that's a Pokemon! That means you're a Trainer..." the boy suddenly smiled, his fatigue replaced by confidence. Now was the time to prove himself. To have his big break. The girl was carrying a strange Pokemon, familiar but still strange. If he could beat her, he would no doubt prove himself as the best Trainer in town. Way better than Don or any of the others. Maybe then he would fit in just a little bit better. "I'm Joey, the strongest rookie trainer around, and I challenge you to a battle! My Rad is in the top percentage of all Rattata!"Rattata knew there was no talking his Trainer down now that he got an idea like this in his head. Actual likelihood of winning or the fact that this girl looks more experienced be damned, Joey was bound and determined to battle. Such is the way of life for a Pokemon with a reckless Trainer, it would appear. Rattata took a step back and tightened itself into a battle-ready stance. Like it or not, the Pokemon was ready for the upcoming fight.
Youngster Joey has challenged you to a Battle! Joey sends out his Rattata, Rad (Level 5)!

Alissa Igni continued walking undisturbed, well not undisturbed, there was still all the sounds of bird Pokemon filling her ears. Suddenly a Rattata ran into her vision, it stared at her for a moment. That was before his trainer came along behind him. Alissa watches as she is unnoticed for some time. Finally looking at her he notices Igni first, then Alissa.
"Oh,that's a Pokemon! That means your a Trainer!!"
"Yes I am and an aspiring Ranger, with a hint of beauty, hehe," Alissa says back to him.
"I'm Joey, the strongest rookie trainer around, and I challenge you to a battle!! My Rad is in the top percentage of all Rattata!"
"Okay, I accept your challenge, me and my Alistare will do our best to meet your expectations," She shifts inside her bag and pulls out a ball. Sitting Igni down, she throws the ball and out pops Alistare.
Alistare ruffles his feathers as he pops out suddenly seeing another Pokemon and its trainer. "Hoo-oot," he says looking back at Alissa. Alissa smiles and nods to him, "You can do it!!" Alistare looks back at Rad, "Okay Alistare, use growl."

Youngster Joey__________________________________
As Alissa accepted his challenge, the young Joey fist pumped the air, grinning cheerfully. "Yes! Let's do this!" In his mind he had this victory in the bag and as soon as he won, he would go around bragging to all the other young trainers in the area. Chuckling at his own thoughts and not quite remembering that he actually had to battle before he could be classed as victorious, he was also just happy that he could battle a wandering trainer. That alone added to both his and Rad's coolness level. Rubbing a finger under his nose, he paused for a moment to listen to the trainers words, learning that she wanted to be a Ranger. "Woah, a Ranger huh? That is pretty cool!" His enthusiasm depleting slightly as she added on the bit about beauty, he took a better look at the girl. She was older than him and Joey was more interested in battling but her girlish charm did make him blush a little. Scratching his cheek and looking away with a slight frown, he quickly tried to brush off this sudden burst of shyness, "Beauty, huh, cool, I er, guess..."
Rolling his eyes once again, Rad grumbled miserably in his own mind. Why did he have to be bundled with this excuse of a trainer? He could only imagine Joey getting worse as he became older. Swaying his tail wearily from side to side in the air, the Rattata prepared himself for his opponent. As the Charmander took a seat to view the battle, Rad sighed in relief. Atleast he wasn't going to be burnt to a crisp. Instead, the pretty teen threw a Pokeball and out popped a rather rotund bird, a Hoothoot. Being fairly common in this area, Rad felt slightly confident. It wasn't an unknown foe to the pair of them and even in the odd circumstance they had won against wild ones. But this time was a bit more serious for Rad, with a guiding voice of a trainer, strategy rather than gut instinct was going to be used. Furrowing his eyes to try and look intimidating, the rat was caught off guard upon hearing Joey's voice. He had been so quiet for the past few minutes that he had almost forgotten about him altogether!
"Ooh! Thats a Hoothoot!" The youngster called out proudly with a grin, "I know my Pokemon names, heheh." Acting almost proud of himself, it was basic knowledge regardless. Listening as she gave her order, Joey stamped his foot forward whilst throwing his arm outward, pointing directly at Alistare, "Go get 'im Rad! Hit 'em hard Rad! Bring home the gold, Rad!" Looking to his trainer with a dumbfounded expression, the Rattata clicked his teeth together, "Just give me an attack, numb skull." Not understanding his Pokemon as to him it was just a normal Rattata's cry, Joey merely shrugged, "You can do it, Rad, show 'em what you got!"
Almost wanting to just forfeit by walking off in a huff, Rad turned only to be taken off guard by the rustling feathers of Alistare. Parting it's beak, the Hoothoot let out a series of angry coo's sending shivers right down the rodent's spine. It seemed he was right in thinking that trained Hoothoot were much stronger than the wild kind. Being almost too scared to attack, he was forced to as Joey finally realised what he hadn't done. "Ooh shoot! GOOOO, use a Tackle attack, Rad!" Nervous, Rad stared at the Hoothoot before crouching down into a pounce stance, Springing into action, the Rattata was fast on his feet but it was clear that he was still unsure about attacking head on. Leaping into the air, the rodent tackled Alistare down, head first, causing the spherical Pokemon to roll backward one or two spaces before wobbling back onto it's lone foot.
Surprised that his "top percentage" Rattata didn't win with one hit, the youngster chuckled nervously, "Boy! Rangers are strong huh? Well, no matter! This battle is just getting started!"
Rad: | Level 5 | Health: 100% ( 19/19 HP) Status: -1 Atk Rad used Tackle!
VS
Alistare: | Level 7 | Health: 78% (21/27 HP) Status: Normal Alistare used Growl!

Alissa looked on at the purple and white creature. It didn't seem to confident, looking back at its trainer. More than once. Suddenly Alistare let out an angry cry. "Maybe you weren't ready for battle, yet. Oh well." Without further notice Joey remembered what he was doing. That caused him to tell his Rad to use tackle.
Rad leapt in the air and used his tackle, knocking Alistare off balance and causing him to roll back. Alistare wasn't down and out though. He got back up and looked back at Alissa once more. Alissa knealt down and patted him on the head, "You alright?" the bird nodded in response, "Okay, use Tackle Alistare!!" Alissa responds.
Alistare looks at the Rattata and almost glares at it. However soon enough, he lifts himself into the air and towards the rat named Rad.

Alistare wasted no time to get on the battle, moving his puffy feathery to attack. The youngster heard the Hoothoot's feet rustling through the grass, and hurriedly give his turn of attack as well, shouting, "Rad, go for a Quick Attack! Let's go, Let's go, Let's go! We're gonna hit you before you hit me!"The unfortunately named Rattata squeaked with disappointment, thinking to itself how the young human need to stop with the slang and be a smarter trainer. No wonder it seemed like most trainers are beating them! Still, an order was an order. The Rattata picked up its sharp, tiny feet, and dashed forward in a lightning speed toward the bird. The purple and white mouse charged and slammed onto Alistare, causing him to stumbled a bit. Though by sacrificing speed, the rodent didn't hit too hard. Alistare quickly reoriented himself, and then by quickly swapping its left and right foot, made his way toward the Rattata and returned with his own flavor of body hitting. The Hoothoot hit the Rattata with a more controlled movement, allowing himself to deal a bit more damage. "Heehee, you're doing alright so far! So I think your Hoothoot is gonna evolve to help your ranger goal?" the boy grinned, as if evaluating the new trainer's battle skills already.
Rad: | Level 5 | Health: 100% ( 13/19 HP) Status: -1 Atk Rad used Quick Attack! VS Alistare: | Level 7 | Health: 78% ( 16/27 HP) Status: Normal Alistare ueed Tackle!!

Alissa watched as her cute little Alistare got hit by the overly enthusiastic trainer's Rad. It hit decently, but Alistare was quick to strike back, but he aimed more precisely. Alissa jumped up excitedly, "Great work Alistare!!" she couldn't contain her excitement. A battle with another trainer, though Alistare was looking a bit tired, gave an overwhelming rush of adrenaline.
Alistare looks at the Rattata and then back to Igni, then back to Rad. He was waiting for Alissa to give her command, however it heard what the boy said and indeed he wanted nothing more than to evolve into his superior form, whether it was for his trainer's goals or not. Alissa was happy just to have him, but evolving wasn't bad either. "If I train him well enough and keep him from fainting in battle too many times... I'm sure he'll evolve into Noctowl in no time." Alissa said this with utter determination in her eyes.
"Alistare, use Hypnosis." This was said calmly as she looks to his Pokemon. Rad was a good fighter, despite being so small. "Remember, treat your pokemon well and they will treat you well."

Youngster Joey__________________________________
Upon questioning Alissa about the evolution of her Hoothoot, the young boy's eyes lit up. He had never seen a Pokemon evolve before, besides on the television. Straightening up his back, he placed a hand on his waist before giving her a thumbs up with his other hand, "Heheh, yeah! I'm sure a Noctowl would be an awesome partner for a ranger!" Looking down to his Rattata, a bit of Alissa's ambition had rubbed off onto him, "Maybe one day Rad will evolve into a Raticate! Then I would have a top percentage Raticate! After this, we should train more, Rad!" Shuddering slightly at his trainer's sudden urging to constantly train, he firstly at more important matters to deal with which was the battle in front of him. Evolving would have to wait for a long time yet.
Easily distracted by the idea of evolution, the youngster Joey didn't hear Alissa give her order. Grinning himself silly, Rad was left to deal with this one alone. He could've easily used a quick attack to shoot in and give the bird a hit but the sudden stare of Alistare's large eyes froze the rodents body completely. As if sending silent signals to Rad's brain, the little purple rat tried it's very best to fight off the urge to sleep. "Huuuuh?! Whats going on?!" Joey questioned suddenly, looking a bit more serious. Feeling his eyes droop, Rad clicked his teeth angrily back at his trainer before slumping forward. "Wait, what?! Rad?! Have you fainted?!" His question was soon to be answered in the form of a very loud snore.
Rubbing underneath his hat with his hand, Joey looked on bewildered, "Huh? What was that move again? Hy-Hyp-Hypnosis!" Sighing, he was caught off guard once again. Yet, he clenched his fists together, a wave of determination shooting over him, "I'm not giving up yet though... Rad! RAD! WAKE UP RAD!" Slumbering peacefully through his trainers calling, it was unlikely that the Rattata was going to be waking up any time soon.
Rad: | Level 5 | Health: 68% ( 13/19 HP) Status: -1 Atk, Asleep Rad fell asleep!
VS
Alistare: | Level 7 | Health: 53% (16/27 HP) Status: Normal Alistare used Hypnosis!
OOC: Thanks for pointing it out! Fixed!

OOC: Morrigan, I believe that his health is 16, not 21.
Alissa smiles, this kid was funny. He kept on yelling at Rad. "I admire your determination kid, but you gotta try harder to wake him up." Alistare stood looking in triumph at what he accomplished. Igni sat there and simply looked on, wondering what he was so proud of. Igni could do better than that, ten times better. Alissa, still feeling that rush of adrenaline, picks up Igni once again and hugs her hard.
Igni seems to try and wiggle out of it. Before she can though Alissa releases her from her hug. "Okay Alistare, I want you to use Tackle, once more." Alistare hears the command and almost at once he pushed off with his one foot, towards the sleeping Rad.
Somehow Igni gets back down and watches Alistare's form.

The Charmander didn't expect a hug, and she wiggled her reptilian arms and legs for a bit, as she was completely new to this hugging thing. The boy watching, giggled, "I think your Charmander don't know what are you doing, haha. I hug my Rattata a lot but Rad always want to get away, I don't know why."Alistare continued, racing on his alternating foot toward the rodent, and landed another hit on the vulnerable, sleeping Rad. The Rattata rolled over from the impact, still sleeping. Its back was on the ground, and its torso was facing the sky. "Come on, Rad! Wake up! Wake up please! We can't lose!" Youngster Joey yelled frantically, with a mixture of panic and crying in his voice. "I'm trying really hard!"Then, as if a moment of miracle, the whiskers on the Rattata wiggled a bit. Joey's face lit up with hope. Next, Rad slowly rolled back on its feet, still indifferent to its trainer's inadequacy and incompetence. "AALLLRIGHT!" he hopped and shouted elatedly. "Rad, let's fight tackle with tackle!"Rad squeaked immediately, and retaliated Alistare with a weakened Tackle. The Hoothoot cooed softly after the hit, unmoved by the attack.
Rad: | Level 5 | Health: 6/19 HP Status: -1 Atk Rad woke up! VS Alistare: | Level 7 | Health: 12/27 HP Status: Normal Alistare ysed a successful Tackle!

"Well she has to learn some way," Alissa says smiling back to Igni then to Joey. Igni sighs, understanding that this may happen often, but she still wouldn't be used to it. She watched as Alistare slammed into the rat. He rolled over and began to twitch, somewhat.
As soon as that happens however, Rad wakes up and hears the command from his annoying trainer and seems to half-tackle its opponent. Alistare seems to shrug off the blow with a simple ruffling of the feathers.
Alistare was determined to prove he was stronger than this simple little rat. He felt no remorseful feelings for it. It was determined to prove himself better than Igni. Though Igni didn't care, she simply watched to learn ways to fight better. Alissa finally announced her next move and to no surprise, it was tackle. "Alright Alistare!! I want you to give your all in this attack! TACKLE!!" She says in a raised voice as she pulls her right arm back and then punches forward with it.
Alistare hears the command and all at once he tenses up his body and pulls himself back. It almost looked as if he was being pulled back in a slingshot, but then he attempts to launch himself forward.
Alistare used Tackle

Youngster Joey__________________________________
Joey grinned at the interactions between Alissa and her Charmander, Igni. What he said earlier had been true, whenever he tried to show such affection to his own Rattata, he would just want to escape him. "Pokemon sure are funny but I love 'em! When I grow up, I might be a Ranger too and protect them!... That or be a trainer. Hehehe, one day, me and Rad will be champs!" He said, sticking up his thumb and grinning with glee. Hey, atleast the kid could dream. Looking over his shoulder bleakly, there was nothing Rad wanted more than to fall back into the peaceful slumber that Alistare had put him under. Forgetting about the battle for a moment, the rodent sent the Hoothoot a begging look, as if asking for another Hypnosis. "Me and Rad are such good chums that the Hypnosis didn't keep him asleep for too long!" Joey chirped in suddenly, instantly forgetting all the childish crying he was doing in attempt to wake his Pokemon up.
Feeling that he was back in the game, despite Rad's clear loss of energy, Joey was happy that he had lasted this long in a battle. "Tackle on tackle is good! So give the Hoothoot another one!" Staggering onto his claws, Rad was about to use his last ounce of strength to spring forward but unfortunately, speed this round. Already hearing the passionate order from his trainer, Alistare had dashed forward with incredible speed, using every bit of his weight to crash into the purple rodent. Flinching, he took the hit head on, body tumbling backwards before landing by Joey's feet, eyes rolling in their sockets. Grabbing at his head, it was a look Joey had seen many times, "OOOOOH NOOOOO!"
Rad: | Level 5 | Health: 0% ( 0/19 HP) Status: -1 Atk Rad fainted!
VS
Alistare: | Level 7 | Health: 37% (12/27 HP) Status: Normal Alistare used Tackle!
Congratulations!You have defeated Youngster Joey! Alistare gained +2 levels and grew to Level 9! Alistare would like to learn the move Peck! Forget a move? Tackle, Growl, Foresight, HypnosisJoey also gave you $200 victory money!
Sighing sadly to himself, the youngster looked down to Rad and lifted him up into his arms. Amazingly, he wasn't stomping around complaining that he had lost, in fact, he was taking it well. "You fought well, Rad. If we would've used Quick Attack, we could'a won, I'm sure of it... I'll remember for next time!" Withdrawing the Rattata into his Pokeball, Joey took in a deep breath before forcing a smile, "You won! Congrats!" Approaching her, he suddenly began digging around in his pockets before bringing out some money, "Here! You can put this towards buying a Pokeball or something!" Taking a few steps back again, he continued, "I can't believe I got to face such a strong trainer... Or, Ranger! My friends will be so jealous!" With a turn on his heel, the young boy began to run off, not before turning and waving his arm around, "If you're in the area again, let's have a rematch! BYE!" Grinning, he quickly ran off again, disappearing into the distance.
Money updated.

OOC: Alistare drops Foresight and learns Peck. "Alright Alistare", She yells excitedly as the Rattata falls to the ground unconscious. Alistare looks to Igni and glares at her. Alissa returns him to his pokeball. Igni stares in confusion, then watches as the boy runs off. Alissa waves to him, "Yeah I look forward to the rerematch." She looks at the money and puts it away neatly. She turns to Igni, reaches down and pats her on the head. "C'mon Igni lets go, we got a ways before we reach Cherrygrove." With that being said, Alissa and Igni continue the journey to Cherrygrove. With that one win under her belt she was extremely happy with all four of her fabulous pokemon. "Hmmm.... I wonder how far we are away exactly?"
Alissa looks on and smiles as the sun shines down on her. "Ahh the sun feels nice, but it is starting to get late, lets get a move on."

Walking side by side, the trainer and her Pokemon were able to take in the warm rays of the sun as they continued along the route which led to Cherrygrove City. So far she had accumulated quite the team, each member through different means. But this was only the beginning and she had a long way to go, with many other Pokemon to catch. In fact, there was a possible new partner lurking very close by. Enjoying the warm sun, a lone red bug lay spread across a tree branch, eyes closed as it enjoyed the rays. Most days were like this for the Pokemon, filled with relaxation and not a stress in the world. Well, apart from the occasional bird Pokemon which tried to feast off of it's delicate body. Opening a lone eye, it heard the sounds of footsteps approaching, causing it to stretch out and wriggle onto it's suction cup like feet to see what type of trainer was passing today.
Still hiding away from Alissa's line of sight, the Wurmple gazed down curiously, eyes becoming fixated at the sight of Igni's glowing tail. It was certainly an odd sight, the bug type hadn't seen a Pokemon like that before! Puffing out it's body, the small caterpillar let loose a string shot, jumping into the air and swinging from tree branch to tree branch before landing in the middle of the path, stopping Alissa and Igni from going any further. Looking to the trainer, it quickly looked back to Igni, sporting a curious stare as it examined the Charmander from afar.
A Wild Wurmple (Level 8) has appeared! Please select a Pokemon to use in battle.

Alissa and Igni continue on in the evening sun. Alissa's hair gently flowing from a light breeze. However out of a tree lands a Wurmple. She stares at the bug before jumping with glee. "Its soooo cute!!" Not your average response from a girl, but whatever. Igni stares at her trainer and sighs.
Alissa looks from the Wurmple to Igni and back. She contemplates for a moment and then something clicks. "Okay, yeah. Igni, I choose you. You shall face the Wurmple!" Alissa watches as Igni steps forward, "Char!"
"Alrighty, Igni use.... Ember!! That ought to heat things up!" Alissa says says giggling a bit. She watches as Igni brings its head back and shoots flames out of its mouth at the Wurmple.

Wurmple had been mesmerized by Igni's tail and had lost all sense of the situation. As the poor little bug continued to look at her tail it did not even realize that the fire type was getting ready to attack. As Wurmple stood there like a bump on a log it was suddenly struck by a passing ember and let out a loud :Whhhaaaaa as it limped over in pain. It has not meant any harm to either Alissa or Igni but this unprovoked attack had filled the little bug Pokemon with so much rage it could have scared off a Charizard but it had to settle for teaching Igni a lesson in manners. After all if had done nothing wrong and was only acting to defend itself at this point. Wurmple then titled it's head back and shot a String Shot all over Igni's legs. The attack seemed to have at least annoyed Igni and lowered her speed but it did not do any damage. Wurmple was terrified at this point. It did not know any powerful moves due to it being so young and it was fighting a type with a type advantage that could easily brush off anything that poor Wurmple could fire at it. Wurmple started to shanke with fear as it had a feeling this battle would not last much longer. One more hit like that and Wurmple would be in serious trouble as it started hoping Alissa or her Pokemon would show some kind of mercy. Wild Pokemon Battle
