Light up the Sky! [F]

Magikarp was not very much of a threat to begin with but after being tossed around like a toothpick the fish was not feeling lucky at all. Sure biting on a strange line may not have been the best idea and trying to use the line to clean it's scales was not a good idea either but nothing it had done had earned it the unfortunate punishment of becoming Kiki's new toy. Still splashing around like a maniac with no other option the fish was in no way prepared to take her on. The little fish had not yet realized that Catherine planned on capturing it so it would not have to face her Bouffalant another round if things went her way.

Magikarp was too busy waiting in fear of the mighty buffalo of death to pay Catherine's Pokeball any attention and it was a bit confused as it felt a light tap before being whisked away into the ball. The water type had no idea what was happening and as the only thing it knew how to do was Splash that is all it could try hoping to find out what was going on before this day got any worse. The splashing caused the Pokeball to rock back and forwards however it was far from a decent effort as Magikarp was not very strong yet and it's lack of understanding did not help it's efforts to break free either.

The ball clicked shut as it stopped shaking a short distance away from Catherine. The fish now trapped inside the ball was still trying to make heads or tails of the situation not even realizing it had been captured by the young girl but it was too late for it to change the course of events now.

Kiki gains 3 levels for winning the battle. She also gains +1 happiness and she has has +1 happiness overall.

Feeling terrible that she had caused the Magikarp such immense levels of distress, the group eyed the rocking Pokeball silently until it clicked into place. That was another Pokemon Catherine had managed to upset but still ended up capturing anyway! Face beaming a great smile, the nurse skipped forward and collected the ball with her feminine fingertips. "I guess it really did want to be our friend, huh?" Placing it carefully in her bag for the time being, as she was already plenty happy with her team of six, the aspiring nurse then turned to face Kiki with an attempt at a stern voice. "Now Kiki, I know you were looking out for us but you can't just jump in like that!" Considering the fact that Bouffalant were a large, frightening species, how she was able to talk to the intimidating Pokemon without a shred of fear proved just how brave, or stupid, Catherine could be.

Lowering her head, this particular Bouffalant was very much a typical Pokemon of her species but she also had a gentle side. More upset with herself for acting so rashly, Catherine couldn't help but rub the side of Kiki's face affectionately. Drawing a warm smile across her face, it was clear that Catherine genuinely loved Pokemon. "You don't need to be sad. Battling is in your nature. But next time, let's find a worthy opponent together. Okay?" Closing her eyes cheerfully, Kiki made a deep moo like sound, nuzzling the face of her trainer. "Heehee... Just how did you get out of your Pokeball, anyway? Silly Kiki!" Their tender moment drawing to a close, Catherine turned her head to face Juris, who had previously been holding her Pokeball under his paw. "Hey, Juris! Did you see what happened?"

But as she took a better look, what stood in Juris' place wasn't the same Eevee. Instead, a much slender mammal stood, boasting a look of sylph-like elegance. Large, pastel blue eyes staring up at Catherine, he used his knew feelers, which looked like tassel's on ribbons, to lift Kiki's Pokeball towards her. Absolutely in awe, it took a moment for Catherine to close her parted lips and raise her hand. "Erm... Thank you?" Completely charmed by his mystical appearance, Catherine finally snapped out of her mesmerising stare as both she and Kiki leaned closer in at Juris. "EEEEEEHHH?! JURIS?! That is you, right?! What happened?!" Waiting for this kind of reaction, he looked away in disinterest as the two females wooed over him. "You look SO CUTE!" Embarrassed, he didn't want to admit that he had evolved out of fondness for Catherine's pure and innocent nature.

Whilst Juris received heaps of attention, Atlas took this distraction as a chance to carry on fishing. Signalling a thumbs up to the Sylveon as if thanking him. Juris twitched his ears and pulled an irritated expression, annoyed that Atlas would use him as a distraction rather than stepping in to help him out. Grabbing the rod in his large hands, the Simisage tossed the line into the water, hoping to hook something else before Catherine could notice.


OOC: Fishing!
 Juris evolved into Sylveon. Not teaching Fairy Wind, instead, teaching TM Dazzling Gleam and forgetting Tail Whip.

With Atlas holding Catherine's rod as she was distracted by Juris evolving he had no idea he would get a bite so quickly. The line was tugged with a great deal of strength and effort as whatever had taken a liking to the line tried to take the whole rod with it. Atlas was barely able to hang on as the rod's line nearly snapped. With all of his might he pulled back on the rod and slowly reeled in his catch thinking it must have been a whooper of a Pokemon to put up such an amazing fight. What made the whole thing all the more silly was that the catch had a familiar look to it as it leaped out of the water. Yet another Magikarp had bitten the line but unlike the last one this one was a fighter who knew exactly what was happening.

Though most Magikarp had next to no fight in them this one was a rather large specimen likely close to evolving judging by it's aggression and how it tried to Tackle Atlas as it flopped on the ground looking to battle the monkey for pulling it out of the water. The fish was really upset that it could no swim it's home without people constantly trying to fish and it was going to put a stop to it once and for all. Though it may not have looked very tough Magikarp was very determined to win a battle and prove just how tough it's species could be. Since Atlas was a grass type the fish had no doubts this battle was not going to be in it's favor but that did not matter as it's bravery would make up for the type disadvantage.

Flailing like a maniac Magikarp was ready to go. It was not going to let Atlas or it's trainer escape without a battle. It was not even sure if Catherine had even noticed it yet but even if she did the fish was ready for a fight even if she chose to use another one of her Pokemon.

A wild Magikarp level 19 appeared. Please select a Pokemon.

Ooc: Fishing Rod level increased by 0.5.

[Morrigan]

Catherine found herself completely oblivious to the fact that Atlas had took it upon himself to continue fishing. Instead, her hands were running along the head of Juris, feeling across his silky, short fur. "I don't even think I know what species you are!... If that is the case, are you an Eevee from Kalos?! Heehee, I wanna visit that region next!" Tilting his head to the side as if not understanding, she couldn't help but squeal. "Juris is CUTE!" If he had originally been from another region, there was no way a young Eevee like Juris would've been able to remember. All he did know was that he had always been alongside Kiki, weak and tired, until they were found by Catherine in Ilex Forest. In such a short time they had managed to settle in and regain energy, maybe all those sweets had proved fruitful in opening the key to Juris' heart!

Meanwhile, Atlas was putting up with quite a fight on the end of his rod. As he struggled to wheel it in, the surface of the water splashing wildly was enough to draw the attention of Kiki. Turning her entire body to see the issue, all of a sudden, another Magikarp came flying out into the air. It's red scales flickering over her eyes, Kiki couldn't help but stomp a foot forward instinctively, almost as if becoming angry for seeing the mere colour. ...But no. She couldn't, incase Catherine scolded her again. But she did moo instead, forcing Catherine to turn away from her endless fussing, much to the delight of Juris. Atleast his head could have a break now. "Huh? Whats going on now?!"

Flopping on the grass before Atlas was another Magikarp, only, this one was much bigger with somewhat controlled flailing. It looked as if it could easily fling itself forward to attack if it needed to defend itself. "Atlas, let's try and toss it back in!" For some reason, she got the feeling that this one wasn't going to roll over lightly and just go back into the sea. The fish's eyes glaring over to the train, she pulled back in surprise before looking from side to side at either of her Pokemon. Juris merely yawned tiredly, feeling that the Magikarp wasn't going to be an issue. Maybe because he knew Kiki would be the one dealing with the karp. Her eyes locked onto the colour of it's body, Catherine rather nervously spoke her order. "Okay... Kiki, you can handle this, this time. Use your Fury Attack!"


OOC: Bouffalant using Fury Attack.

[Deleted]

Magikarp felt like it had the power of Zeus himself as it flailed around like a dying fish which technically it was slowly doing so being out of the water. It was so full of confidence that it never did take notice of the giant buffalo walking towards it until Catherine spoke in a nervous tone. It was only then that Magikarp knew it would have to face the gigantic Pokemon in a battle. As crazy as it seemed to stand it's ground against such a mighty beat the fish did not back down even when it's foe could win the battle just by sitting on it. Being such a brave fish came at the cost of brains however as it made the dumbest decision of it's life.

Instead of splashing around and looking helpless to maybe be shown some mercy it flung itself towards Kiki at such a pitiful speed that she did not even try top dodge the attack and instead let the fish have a bit of fun. As the fish collided with her she snorted and as the heat from her nostrils met with the scales on Magikarp's body it was then the fish realized it had awakened the beast and there was no going back and playing dead now. Kiki raised her horns and started to slash the fish repeatedly scoring hit after hit as it lay helplessly on the ground unable to get out of the way. Magikarp was in a lot of pain as she finally showed the poor thing a bit of mercy and stopped.

It was not clear to the fish if she had stopped from being tired or maybe she felt she had proven her point but the fish got the message either way. Not feeling like such a tough guy anymore Magkikarp began to flail even more fanatically. It was a desperate bid to try and reach the water so it could escape the buffalo's wrath but every bounce caused more pain which had already grown to unbearable levels. Magikarp could only hope it would evolve before going through another round or else there was no way it could come back from such a beating.

As another Magikarp was pulled onto the shore line, Catherine took note that this one came across as much more battle hungry, this time giving the order for Kiki to attack rather than the bull charging in of her own free will. This fish was much more polished in comparison to the previous one she had just captured, it's body strong enough to summon an energetic flop which gave it enough force to tackle into the Bouffalant. It may not have done an awful lot of damage to the large bull but it certainly sparked Catherine's interest. As an aspiring Pokemon Nurse, she had researched many different elements when it came to Pokemon. She hay have been a bit of a ditz but she could tell when something amazing was about to happen. Perhaps it was even less knowledge based and more gut feeling.

"Ah! This Magikarp is strong to be able to Tackle! Kiki, don't hold back! It'd be an insult to the cute fishy!" Catherine's wish being Kiki's command, hot air shot from her nostrils and soon, she unleashed fury. Strike after strike, the afro bull slashed at the flailing fish, it's bright red scales being the only thing Kiki could keep her eyes on. The attack was vicious by Catherine's standards but she was beginning to grow used to battles. If they didn't fight to the best of their ability, then Pokemon wouldn't improve and if that is what her friends wanted, she was prepared to stand by them. Clenching a small fist upon the end of Kiki's attack, the young girl stepped forward. "Alright Kiki, hold on for a moment!" Pulling out another PokeBall, she enlarged it with a press of the button.

"This Magikarp looks strong! I betcha together, we can all help it evolve soon. I just get the feeling!" Looking to the flopping fish, she noticed this one was weakly trying to flee from her too. But that was okay, to Catherine she was happy to help all Pokemon. Even the ones who tried to escape her grip. "Go PokeBall!!" Throwing it with a flick of her wrist, it span towards the Magikarp.

x1 PokeBall (Updated)

The once Mighty Magikarp had been knocked down more than a few pegs after being tossed aside like yesterdays lunch by Kiki. The fish had never dreamed it would become the victim of a Buffalo's brutality but after getting beaten to a pulp Magikarp had learned not to pick fights without knowing the full extent of the damage it's foes were capable of. There was no telling if there would be a next time either as it looked Like Kiki was ready to charge at it again without mercy. The buffalo sure had the strength to go and knock the fish around again and she probably would have had Catherine not intervened. The fish gasped in fear not knowing what the human ha planned.

It was then then it saw her with a red and white ball in her hand. It was an all too common symbol that she was going to try and capture the fish which given the choice between being captured or being turned into a pin cushion for Kiki's horns neither choice seemed much better than the other. Even if the fish wanted to try and go another round with the buffalo Catherine had already tossed the ball and it was not long before the fish disappeared in a bright flash. Not a moment later the ball began to rock violently as Magkiarp tried to escape. It was not going to give in either way. Even if it ended up captured it would be after one heck of a fight.

Before long the ball had developed a continuous rocking motion from side to side. Unclear if the fish would be captured Kiki stood by ready to take an attack from the fish should it lash out in anger but the moment never came. The ball suddenly clicked shut trapped Magikarp inside the ball. With the fish now secured in the ball Catherine was yet again free to choose to do as she pleased once more.

Congratulations Magikarp was captured. Please complete the code below:

With a second Magikarp now in her possession, Catherine grinned and began her skip forward to collect the now still Pokeball. The aspiring nurse was likely going to take the younger water type to the Pokemon Centre and release it back into the wild but this one had certainly caught her attention. The way it held itself and fought was enough to suggest that it was strong, to the point where it was almost ready to evolve. Since she was such a caring, helpful soul, she only thought it was best to help this little Magikarp changed into the mighty Gyarados it had been training so hard to achieve to be. Replacing a Pokemon on her own belt to temporarily make a space for the newly acquired Magikarp, her large green eyes danced between each of her Pokemon excitedly. So many exciting things had happened to her recently that she just didn't want this wild ride to end!

"Okay everyone! We did it again! Fishing might be a boring wait but once it's hooked, it can be pretty fun too, hmm?" Gripping the Pokeball in her fingers, she tossed it towards the water, revealing the more recently caught Magikarp. "Hello, lil' Magikarp!" She called in a child like tone as her arm raised into the air, "Let's see... What sorta name should..." Slowly realising that she would need to get closer to the water's edge in order to look over Magikarp, the girl couldn't help but shiver in her shoes. She didn't hate water but she couldn't swim at all. Noticing this, Atlas picked up his rod and moved closer, to which the Magikarp stared at the grass monkey curiously. With a flick of his hand, the Simisage beckoned Catherine towards the waters edge and with both hands busy on the fishing rod, he was able to atleast use his lithe tail to offer her some support. Cautiously moving onto her knees by the waters edge, he used his tail to support her waist, allowing Catherine to examine the Magikarp.

Delighted at her best friend's kindness, she continued to check over the Magikarp, who in return looked back up to her. Feeling the touch of human skin against her scales, the water type didn't seem to mind. "How about the name Leviya? I'll call ya Levi for short! Cause I'm sure one day, you'll be a BIG Leviathan!" Giving the Pokemon a smile of support, she felt her body be pushed back further in land by Atlas, as he caught something else.



OOC: Fishing again. Forgets Fury Atk for Horn Atk.

It was pretty much lunchtime for this Tentacool as it floated through the waters, keeping an eye out for any sort of grub it could munch on. What luck, it thought, when it spotted the floating bait in the water, just ripe for picking.
Maybe it was good to mention that this Tentacool was a bit naive to the open world of the waters outside its group of other Tentacools. In fact, this was the first time this Tentacool had ventured far into the waters without its swarm for support. It didn't even strike the Tentacool strange that a huge group of Magikarps passed the bait without even so much as a glance or nibble. The other Pokemon certainly knew what was up, since fishing was a common practice here, that enough Pokemon knew that taking these bait meant being dragged into a Pokemon match.

Only Pokemon desperate enough, or in the Tentacool's case, naive enough took the bait.
So there you have it. The unsuspecting Tentacool just assumed it got a free meal without effort as it reached out with its tentacle to tug at the bait. Resistance on the line was instantly met the moment the Tentacool tugged, and the fishing rod suddenly began reeling. The Tentacool let out a startled cry as it felt itself being pulled up to the surface, coming face to face with Catherine and her Pokemon.

Tentacool (Lvl 16) appeared!

[Morrigan]

Catherine's fingertips ran across the smooth scales of the Magikarp, whom in return, remained still on the water's surface, staring with blank curiosity up at the trainer. Taking on board her new nickname, the water type didn't seem too bothered but accepted it none the less. It had been in these waters for as long as it could remember and not once had a human began to pet the fish the way Catherine was, with actual care behind each movement. She did look a little silly though, with the tail of Simisage keeping her safely propped up. Then, both her Sylveon and Bouffalant were standing close by, each of them further keeping watch with Kiki boasting a particularly scary spark in her eye. There was no doubt that if anything happened to the young teenager, that all of her Pokemon would follow suit after her. The Magikarp, now known as Leviya, would need to fit in if she wanted a simple life.

"Heehee, good girl, Levi! Your scales are really sturdy, I bet you trained loads on your own! And look at how long your whiskers are!" Putting her hand into the cool surface of the water, Catherine ran the Magikarp's whiskers through her fingertips, grinning as the Magikarp reacted with a ticklish shiver. "We'll help you evolve, don't cha worry about a thing!" Feeling her torso suddenly keel forward, both Kiki and Juris gasped, the Sylveon jumping forward and grabbing hold of her arm with his feelers before the trainer hit the surface of the water. Forgetting what he was doing, Atlas had jumped to his feet, pulling and tugging at the rod until finally reeling in his next catch. The Pokemon stayed in the water but floated up to the surface, the jelly fish like creature eyeing the figures around it.

"Hmm? That looks like a Tentacool!" It particular pattern and colours making it easy to spot in the sea, the aspiring nurse noticed that the Magikarp was flapping in the water as if ready to take off into a tackle. "Woah there, Levi! You can't just go attack a Tentacool! They are poisonous, you know... Atlas! Will you take care of it?" Pointing a finger to himself in shock, the grass monkey wasn't keen on the idea either, as he was also sensitive to poisonous attacks. But once Catherine's mind was made up, there wasn't much luck in changing it and her straight smile told Atlas that he was up. Sighing to himself, he turned towards the waters edge and placed the fishing rod down. "Okay buddy, use one of your good ol' Seed Bomb attacks! Don't hurt Levi though!" Aiming out to the water's surface where Tentacool remaining, Atlas brushed a hand in the air to signify to the Magikarp to move back before unleashing his attack.

OOC: Magikarp first, switched with Simisage who uses Seed Bomb.

[Deleted]

The naive Tentacool still had not realized the depth of it's mistake at the start of the battle. The jellyfish Pokemon knew it had messed up but as it saw Atlas it truly began to feel it had made a huge mistake. It was hoping the young trainer would use Magikarp as it had beaten many of those before who tried to battle against it however it had never fought a Pokemon that lived on land before nor did it ever face a grass type Pokemon with such a powerful attack before. As Sagikarp received the signal to stand back so Atlas could attack without fear of taking out his ally Tentacool made it's move.

Opening it's mouth the poisonous Pokemon fired a sizable amount of Acid towards the grass type monkey. The Acid left him with a burning sensation however Tentacool was still young so it's poison had not reached it's full strength yet. As such he was able to shake off the attack with only a little discomfort. When he made his own move however Tentacool finally realized just how deep a creek it was in. Atlas fired a series of explosive seeds into the air and as they fell back towards the earth they landed on the water around Tentacool before exploding. There was no questioning that the attack had been effective as the jellyfish was sent sky high. As it landed in the water bubbles came out of it's mouth as it began to sink.

The Seed Bomb was much to powerful for the young Tentacool to handle as it sunk beneath the waves unconscious from the explosion. The massive shock wave caused huge waves in the water that would more than likely cause any other Pokemon to come check out what had just happened.

[Morrigan]

Catherine and the entirety of her team grimaced at the sight of the wild Tentacool gobbing up a blob of acid and firing it toward Atlas from it's hidden mouth. As the purple ooze struck the grass monkey, a pained hiss escaped from his mouth, as his entire body felt as if it were burning. "Hang in there, Atlas! You can handle this!" Catherine was correct but only due to the amount of training he had received. If he was still his younger, Pansage self, then there was no doubt that the Acid attack would've truly hurt him. Regardless, the Simisage fired numerous seed out from his pompadour styled hair, aiming them for the area around the floating Tentacool. Floating on the spot, the acidic jellyfish eyed the seeds which scattered the water, unaware that they were about to go boom. One after the other, each seed exploded powerfully, churning up the water and knocking the wild Pokemon out cold.

The Magikarp watched with her usual wide eyes as the Tentacool began to float away in a fainted heap. Attention only turning to one side as Catherine shared celebrations with her Pokemon. "Good job, Atlas! You really showed that Tentacool what for!" Raising her hands, the young trainer shared a double high five with the Simisage, who rather shyly accepted her victory gesture. "Before we know it, we'll be challenging the next Gym!" Laughing in excitement, the aspiring nurse turned to Leviya and outstretched a hand, "You can come with us to the battle, Leviya! Even if you are just a Magikarp, you can always battle beside me. Now that you've seen Atlas in action, how about we focus more on you?" Grinning with sincerity, the eyes of the Magikarp glistened and glittered. This human she had just met was so eager to help but merely watching that battle had given Leviya all the experience she needed!

Leviya's body beginning to glow with a bright light, Catherine felt her hands raise to her face, voice gasping as she tried to get to grips with what was going on. She knew this was evolution but for whom?! "Atlas... Juris... Kiki?!" Since the Magikarp hadn't technically participated in any battles yet, the idea of her evolving from simply watching didn't cross Catherine's mind. But with cautious feet, Catherine stepped closer, feeling her toes tip over the edge of the bank and body take a tumble towards the water below. "wo-wo-WOOOOAHH!" Tripping forward, Catherine would've otherwise landed face first in the ocean had it not been for Leviya. Her large, blue scaled body stretching through the water, Catherine was just the right size to stand on her back without getting wet from the water below.

"Leviya! You evolved already!" Her hand resting on the back of the Pokemon's head, the Gyarados let loose a loud roar from her large maw before siding up to the bank and allowing Catherine to jump back onto dry land. "This is so exciting, Leviya! Looks like you didn't need my help to evolve at all!" Known as fearsome beasts, it was amazing that Catherine was able to lean in without a care and rub the side of the Gyarados' face affectionately. Features moving into what appeared to be a smile, Leviya had turned out to be another gentle giant, won over by Catherine's innocent charms. Leaning in, she nuzzled the trainer carefully whilst Atlas took this opportunity to bag another fish with his trusty Old Rod.


OOC: Allowing Magikarp to evolve and learning Bite.

Fishing again please!

[Deleted]

As Catherine admired her new Gyarados Atlas went back to fishing duties as usual. The Pokemon that he had snagged so far were not all too rare however it was only a matter of time before something of decent rarity would finally give the rod a bite. That time did not take long either a a huge tug nearly ripped the rod out of Atlas's hands. It took a true miracle for him to hold on and slowly reel in the catch. Whatever it was felt very heavy and before long a pink colored Pokemon broke through the water and appeared on the shore. It was truly a sight to behold as this POkemon was not very common.

The Corsola had just been wanting to try something different for a change instead of the usual plants. The bait was not something that Corsola usually ate however it did not think it would hurt to give it a try until it realized how big of a mistake it had made. The rather cute Pokemon looked around confused as to what was going on when it saw Catherine's Leviya staring back at it. Corsola had seen enough Magikarp for a lifetime but none of them had evolved where it lived making the beast quite a shock to behold. The coral Pokemon stood silent unsure of how to react in fear that the serpent would try to make a meal out of it if it tried to make any sudden movements and becoming a meal was not in it's plans.

Hoping that Catherine would not use that monster in a battle Corsola stood by full of fear as it wondered what would happen next. The only thing it knew was that if it had to fight Leviya things would not be in it's favor.

A wild level 16 Corsola had challenged you to a battle. Please select a Pokemon.

Your rod gained 2 levels for this impressive catch.

[Morrigan]

Whilst Catherine fussed over her newest addition, Atlas tossed his bait and hook back into the water's surface. In a way, it was strange that a Pokemon was fishing up other Pokemon but the Simisage couldn't help but enjoy just a few moments of sitting in peace as he awaited a bite. Both the Bouffalant and Sylveon seemed to be in deep conversation about one thing or another, as the two knew each other before joining the young girl's team, leaving each group focused on individual things. "I know we haven't been back to a Pokemon Centre yet but I can tell that you are really healthy, Leviya! I'm glad! We'll head on back to Goldenrod City soon though, for a super quick check up to be safe! Besides, food is always a plus!" Caring of her team and despite her own dreams of being a nurse, Catherine knew when to leave certain things to the professionals and keeping her Pokemon in tip top shape by frequently visiting the local Pokemon Centres was something she always did.

Her delicate hand rubbing softly on the head of the Gyarados, the leviathan felt something moving close by underneath the surface of the water. Not wanting to alarm Catherine, the watery beast remained still, expecting Atlas to be able to handle whatever was approaching next. However, it was going to be a bite even he struggled with. As his large hands gripped onto the rod, the sudden bite was strong enough for him to almost lose his rod! Dramatically jumping up, he had to use all of his strength to keep the rod in his hands. Attracting the attention of everyone around him, Catherine blinked her eyes hurriedly. "Atlas? Are you alright?" Unable to hide the strain on his face, the young girl immediately parted from the side of Leviya and hurried to the back of the grass monkey. "WOAH! Look at that rod bend! Don't worry! We'll reel it in together!" Hooking her arms around the waist of the Simisage, each of her other Pokemon looked a bit startled. Sighing, Leviya merely shook her large head. If they needed help, why not send her down to lift the catch up for them?

Instead, she simply stared in wonder, as Catherine pulled Atlas who wrestled with whatever was hanging onto the other end of the rod. With a massive tug, the Pokemon was landed and both Catherine and Atlas staggered back a few paces as a pink Pokemon landed on the grass beside them. Hitting the ground, Catherine winced but it was nothing to distract her from this new and cute Pokemon. "It's a Corsola!" Jumping up to her feet, she clenched her little fists excitedly, "Did ya know that a whole school of Corsola keep a village afloat in Hoenn somewhere?! It's just some story I heard but isn't it wonderful if such a thing is true?! That must mean Corsola are strong!" Smiling widely, she was about to turn to Atlas, until realising that he was likely tired after pulling the Corsola to the surface. Pausing, her eyes fell onto Leviya. "Okay Levi! Use Bite on the Corsola!" Taken aback and surprised she was given an order, the Gyarados didn't hold back to let loose an intimidating roar. The Corsola may have been on land but with her long body, she was still able to reach the pink coral.


OOC: Gyarados uses Bite.

[Deleted]

As soon as Corsola saw Catherine's Gyarados made it's move it nearly lost the contents of it's bowels in fear for it's life. The giant serpent was already a terrifying sight but seeing it come closer with it's mouth wide open was an indescribable horror for the small pink Pokemon. Frozen in fear Corsola could only watch as the monster headed it's way with sharp fangs ready to take a chomp out of it's hard body. The rocky Pokemon screamed out in pain as Leviya used a powerful Bite attack. The attack did more than just cause damage as Corsola was still frozen in fear.

As much as it wanted to desperately fight back Corsola could not work up the courage to move. The coral Pokemon shook in fear as it's rock hard body began to crumble from the bite's force. Small cracks ran down it's body along with a few holes from where the fangs punctured it's rocky exterior. The wounds would take a very long time to heal naturally and though it had an ability to recover from the painful attack fear had overtaken Corsola's other emotions to such a degree that all it could muster was a high pitched cry as it tried to keep it's distance away from Leviya. Hoping the beast would not try to take another taste.

Waiting to see what the next round would bring Corsola was still overloaded in fear. If it did not work up more courage soon there would be no way it would stand a chance against such a powerful Pokemon and the coral Pokemon knew deep down it could not afford to let fear win again in the next round.
