The red fish floundered about as it wriggled and flopped around on the ground. It seemed to bounce from spot to spot, trying to adapt and settle to its new environment and inevitably failing at this reality. The rains poured down, soaking the ground underneath them as they dolled on. The Magikarp managed to land in a puddle of mud and splashed about, kicking up muddy water all around it as it flipped and flopped about. Maia seized her moment of opportunity and pounded the scaly fish with her arms. The Magikarp cried out in pain as Maia’s arm landed on the red flounder’s sides. That smarted, and the pain seemed to resonate with the floppy fish. Magikarp’s eyed its opponent, narrowing its usually dull and wide gaze to focus on the pink balloon Pokemon. “Karp karp. Magikarp.” The battle was far from over. It used its large and powerful tail fin it kick itself out of the muddy puddle and spiraled into the fluffy Pink Jigglypuff, tackling its opponent. The red Magikarp would come crashing into Jigglypuff’s side, catching her just underneath her arm. Though being nearly twice her size, it would easily topple its opponent over. Maia easily recovered, leaping up so that she could begin thwacking her opponent with her short arms once more. This time she slammed her stubby fists down on top of Magikarp’s head, just behind its rather large yellow dorsal fin. Another shriek of pain escaped the flopping flounder’s mouth as Maia’s attack made contact with the Magikarp. The pain pounded and resonated within Magikarp. Its right eye was still hurting from earlier, causing the Pokemon to halfway open it and squint. And now its sides and back seemed to echo with pain from Maia's attacks.

[nospaces] The poor fish. It just wasn't its day. Maia huffed, the last attack squeezing a bit of the wind out of her, but she still stood pretty happy with herself. Magikarp wasn't going anywhere at this point. She put her nubby arms to her side in victory, half turning around to face her trainer and see his appreciation.
[break] [break] Damien was pretty thoroughly drenched by this point, though the rain did seem to be letting up. His jacket was heavy, pants and gloves soaked... he was evening beginning to feel it a bit passed the edge of his boots. At least his hat kept his head dry, though the streams of water pouring off of the brim down onto his back certainly wasn't helping the rest of him. While he didn't mind the harsher outdoors it was probably best he got this wrapped up quicker rather than later.
[break] "Well done Maia," came the compliment the jigglypuff was eagerly waiting for. The fairy type glowed with pride in her accomplishment. "That's probably enough for this one," the ranger added, turning his eyes away from the battle for a moment to dig out a pokéball. He attempted to keep much rain from getting into his bag as he snatched up a fresh device. Its maw was quickly closed and the young trainer's attention tuned back into the magikarp.
[break] [break] "Here it goes." He only took a moment to gauge his throw before making an underhanded toss.

The rains poured from the heavens above. They seemed to be slowing in their torrent. Though their sweet reminder of Magikarp’s one true home instilled the fish and managed to give the oily, scaly red carp hope that it would soon wriggle back into the watery depths from which it had come. It gulped about, as each smack of its powerful tail sent it spiraling back and forth from muddy puddle to dirt ground upon the battlefield. As the fluffy pink balloon chased after and beat the scaly fish with each successive round, the Jigglypuff had managed to successfully whittle away the Magikarp’s health. Perhaps it was a blessing, then, when the dark-haired young lad instead pulled out a red-and-white spherical device. Damien immediately tossed the Pokeball at the Magikarp, and as quickly as the young lad had slammed his finger on the button in the center of the Pokeball, a bright blast of red light shot out in a singular line. It engulfed the Magikarp, it’s bright redness seemingly brighter and fiercer than the Pokemon’s scales. Within seconds, the Magikarp dissipated into nothing but light itself, before the light retreated. Boing! The Ball fell with a snap to the ground, and rocked back and forth on the muddy ground. An internal battle waged on inside of the capsule. Ding! The Magikarp was weakened but determined. After all, it didn’t cosign on this and hadn’t considered a life in captivity before this moment. Ding! Or, did it even think at all about the moment? Well, who really knows? It surely didn’t fight too hard. After all – after two dings, a the beast stopped struggling altogether from within the Pokeball. A fine capture indeed!

[nospaces] It may not be the most impressive catch to brag about, but the inexperienced ranger was happy with it none-the-less. Stepping forward in the squish of muck by the river bank Damien made to collect his new capture. Of course pausing to give his jigglypuff a congratulatory pat on the head. Maia then walked with her trainer to scoop up the ball before he could lean down for it. The pink puff raised it above her head with both her nubby arms and offered it to him. [break] [break] "Thanks Maia." The boy pinched the device with a few fingers and carefully pulled it from his pokémon's grip. As he looked down to her he was careful to angle his head a bit so any built up bundles of water didn't trail off his hat and onto her. "How 'bout I get you in from the rain now, huh?"[break] "Jiggly," came her reply, a nod following the sound just before a shake of her body to try and expel some of the excess water from her short fur. [break] [break] With Maia back in her ball and the magikarp safely transferred to his PC it was just him and the diminishing rain. He sighed and rolled his shoulders, feeling a little cramped up. He considered sitting back down to fish again as it hadn't taken very long to hook that magikarp, but with how soaked he'd become it was probably better for his health to get somewhere warm and dry. He adjusted his bag on his back and departed the riverside, heading into the light tree cover between him and the main route. [break] [break] His walk was slow; relaxed. Despite what some would consider foul weather to travel Damien was much more at home in this than he was stuffed up in the confines of the big city. He took every opportunity to detour around potential burrows, hop onto fallen trunks and walk their length, pause to investigate interesting marks or flora... At some point it had even stopped raining. So distracted with just being outside he seemed to realize it all at once. It was bright and warm, sun beaming through the canopy and the sounds of birds picked up throughout the area. [break] [break] "Hmm," he pondered aloud as he stood in a nice sunny spot under a break in the trees. He removed his hat to let the sun warm his face, taking the opportunity to shake the headgear to rid it of some stray droplets. "Well not much rush to get back now is there?" he voiced to himself quietly. He took a deep breath and attached his hat on his backpack. His hair was likely a flat mess, so as he looked around to decide where he wanted to explore he let his hands run through and loosen up the matted strands. [break] [break] ~~~~~ [break] His aimless wandering didn't get to last too long. With the nicer weather activity of all kinds picked up. He could hear other trainers battling from afar, general traffic along the route, and all manner of wild pokémon shifting through the woods. One call stood out a bit more than the others. It was the shouts of a man demanding someone stop whatever it was they were doing. Damien perked, trying to focus his hearing without the noise of his own sloshing boot steps. It wasn't too far off, and after a moment he could barely make out a fiery coat bounding through the brush. [break] [break] Without a breath of hesitation the young ranger broke into a run. He tried to aim his path to meetup with the pokémon as it continued rushing into the woods. The voice of the man from the route quickly faded, and it wasn't too long before Damien lost the trail of the pokémon. He slowed to a stop and went to listening once again. He even held his breath. The noise of a foil wrapper crackling nearby caught his attention. Nothing seemed to be moving nearby so it was his only lead. Damien moved at a brisk but careful pace. He didn't want to shock whoever it was, but perhaps they could give him a tip as to where the pokémon had gone. [break] [break] Soon he had clear sight of a little clearing that was the source of the noise. But it wasn't a person as he'd been expecting. Fiddling with a half opened chocolate bar wrapper was a blob of pink. The ranger paused, an amused smile spreading across his face. He continued closer before making his presence unmistakable to the wild pokémon. [break] [break] "Did you steal someone's candy?" Word Count: 763

The law of the land is to eat or be eaten. Ditto were masterminds of camouflage and disguise. They would emulate whatever they saw around them in their immediately environment, simply transforming their outward appearance so that they more accurately reflected the same appearance and change as that of the Pokemon that they ran into. With the heavy rains clearing up and leaving the Route open to the beautiful wildflowers and tall grass that decorated the region, the small pinkish-purple blob had been pilfering through the trash in the vain hopes of finding edible substance that the human trainers had deemed less edible for them and had thrown out. This Ditto had spent most of its time rummaging through the open canisters. It would often use its gelatinous body like sticky tape to scale up and climb the sides of the trash can. However, this black bin had been knocked down, with the sides of the translucent plastic bag on the inside seeming to waver and fall. It caused the Ditto to push and prod at the ends of the bag so that the pink gelatinous creature could slip underneath and into the trash bin. It backed out only occasionally, kicking up bits of trash and debris in different directions until it had stumbled upon a scrumptious morsel of a wrapper – a Twix candy bay only half-eaten by whatever kid had decided to previously through out the rest of their candy! Whenever it heard someone approaching, it should use its camouflage cloak to turn into the only human it had the chance to catch a good glimpse of to spook them back off. The Ditto didn’t expect it’s scare tactic to become something of a calling card for another young trainer. “Stay back you….You hooligans!” Its words echoed – one of the few lines it had heard the old greyed hair man tell to a bunch of small, impressionable kids. “Leave my cane alone! I’m going to tell your mother!” As soon as the boy had slipped behind the Ditto and spooked it, it immediately began to cloak itself – this time into the image of the young man in front of it. “Did you steal someone’s candy?” The small pink blob changed into a young man standing almost 5’10” in full height, with a height that seemed to tip the scales back in its favor. It cloaked the body in a reddish and black suit, mimicking Damien’s attire to a Tee. Incredulously, the Ditto parroted Damien’s exact lines that the kick had just asked the Ditto and tossed them back at the young man instead. “Did you steal someone’s candy?” It repeated once more for emphasis, as if stuck on a loop.

[nospaces] It was just a roller coaster of illusions. First the young lad thought he was chasing after a pokémon, then thought he was coming up on a person, only to have that flipped back to being a pokémon, and finally that turned upside down on him as he finally cleared all the forestry to find a person. But not just any person: him! A stray branch right in his face had the boy look away for just a second to push it away after he spoke and that second seemed to have been a very important one. The inexperienced ranger stopped, blinked a couple times as his brain processed the vision and repeated words, and then finally caught on.
[break][break] His doppelganger continued to echo the question. Damien just smiled at the theatrics. If he hadn't just encountered one of these pokémon the other day he'd surely be at a loss about the situation. Instead he briefly looked to the half-eaten candy then back to the doppel-Damien. No doubt he'd surprised the little fella, but it didn't seem like it'd had enough time to down an entire strip so smoothly.
[break] "Hello," he greeted properly, raising a hand. If this one was anything like the last the ranger expected a whole lot of mimicry. Despite this he couldn't help but find it really odd to engage with a mirror of himself. "If you're hungry there's a nicer way than takin' someones candy," he offered with a friendly smile, unaware there was dumpster diving involved.
[break] [break] Damien slipped the bag off his shoulders and carefully set it down, keeping a peripheral on the shapeshifter in case he decided to bolt. Kneeling down and opening it up, he began searching for the rations he'd brought for his own pokémon in case he was out all day. He'd only packed enough for each of his own, but surely one of his pokémon wouldn't mind sharing a little bit. The boy pulled out a little bag of pokéchow.
[break] "Like this," he started, opening up the bag and extending it toward the wild imposter.
[break] [break] The moment the bag crackled open however another made their way onto the scene. With a sudden pop and flash of light Damien's baby swinub materialized at his side. The blob of thick brown fur sniffed the air loudly, a piggy snort accompanying each intake.
[break] [break] "Shaggy?" the boy gasped. "No no, it's not for you boy." Damien stood, still keeping the bag outstretched for the ditto but now it'd be safely out of reach of his food lover. Or so he thought. The swinub glugged the last syllable of its species a couple times before going vertical.
[break] "Ah! Shaggy..." came the complaint as the pig pokémon began crawling up his leg. Damien didn't make any attempt to shake the baby off, instead turning his attention back onto his other company with a light flush growing in his cheeks. "As you can see it's pretty good stuff," he chuckled, trying to take advantage of the situation and sell the pokéchow. Cause if Ditto was only interested in treats Damien had few to offer.
[break] [break] "Just... Give me a moment Shaggy. Then I'll get yours alright?" It didn't dissuade the swinub from continuing on passed Damien's belt. A little bit more and the ranger would be able to nab the little guy with his other arm before the pig pokémon would be able to make it to the food.

“Takin’ someone’s candy,” followed the clone of Damien Shay, in a near identical tone to the ranger’s voice, unnoticing of his hand. The only detail clearly lacking from the ditto’s cloned form were the teen’s striking blue eyes. And perhaps the ditto’s lack of some scrumptious pokéchow. The strange Pokemon couldn’t help but get a bit excited as Damien opened the bag of deliciousness, holding it towards him. So excited to the point that as soon as Shaggy appeared, the ditto quickly became only a light form, before quickly becoming much smaller. As the ditto appeared in another reimagined way, it stood only a foot tall. Where its hands previously would’ve been, now there only stood somewhat small and stubby legs, hidden under its thick hide. With its newly found strong sense of smell, it sniffed around for a moment, its big nose making visual movements. The pokéchow only smelled even better at this point, somehow even more so than before. “--ub,” mimicked the wild swinub, watching closely as the Pokemon began to climb up the trainer. The wild Pokemon still seemed to be enjoying itself in the situation, but wouldn’t be able to pull anything out of the bag of treats itself without its much longer and more functional human limbs. It didn’t seem to carry any hostility towards Damien. ![](https://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/bw/swinub.png) What a rare sight for Goldenrod City! A wild Swinub (level 23) has appeared! Although the wild Damien Shay has fled... It doesn't seem to be doing any harm, only wanting some treats... What will Damien and company do?

[nospaces] It took the boy a second to realize... He made a double take, blinking.
[break] "Where..?" he spoke, puzzled. His doppelganger had just disappeared. The ranger looked left and right, trying to pick up on any sign as to where the wild ditto had run off to. His arm retracted to bring the bag of pokéchow back toward himself as he pondered.
[break] [break] A prick of Shaggy's tiny claws on his chest brought Damien's attention back to the swinub eagerly crawling its way toward the now closer food. The inexperienced ranger quickly brought his other hand to close around the swinub's body and pull it off of his shirt.
[break] "There we go," he muttered to himself, trying to be gentle as the baby pokémon squirmed lightly. Damien knelt down and put Shaggy back on the ground, holding a moment while he instructed the little one to stay. The pig pokémon protested with a little squeak.
[break] "Alright, here. Just a couple to tide you over a moment okay?" The young lad quickly stuck his fingers into the bag to retrieve a few nibblets and lay them down for his pokémon to begin munching on. His attention then went back to a search for that ditto. He hadn't lost it, had he?
[break] [break] It was then he noticed the brown bulge worming its way over towards him. The ranger smiled, the tension gone from his back with the sight of the mirrored swinub. As it got close it was clear the little guy was just as excited as Shaggy to be offered some food. [break] "Here you go!" Damien spoke, turning the bag on its side to pour its contents in front of the disguised ditto. Before he could make a comment about Shaggy as competition the baby ice pokémon was already shooting his way over to the pile of chow to begin eating it as well. "Oh no you don't. That's not yours." Damien once again scooped up his swinub, who made his complaints known all round. Amidst the loud whining Damien dug into his bag once again and just pulled out whatever food bag he could find. It wasn't Shaggy's. Too small. But anything would sate the little guy for now.
[break] [break] Cracking another bag open and placing it on the ground in front of Shaggy the little porkster swiftly dove inside the opening and began devouring all the chow inside. It was almost a bit embarrassing. Damien chuckled uncomfortably, taking an extra moment to ensure his little guy was okay, before returning his attention back to the dumpster diver.
[break] [break] "I've got more where that came from, but we'd have to go back into town to get it. Interested?" he proposed to the wild pokémon. It usually wasn't ever this easy. Surely something had to throw a wrench into this plan.

The Ditto’s nostrils flared at the scent of the scrumptious Pokechow. It pulled in huge gulps of air and puffed them out, though the succulent scent caused the Pokemon’s newly formed stomach to rumble underneath it. Transfixed, the Ditto began hopping and leaping at Damien Shay, shaking its stubby little legs vainly as it snorted and grunted loudly for the meal. The dark-haired blue-eyed young ranger would place the bag of chow on the ground, scooting out some of its contents on the ground so that the Ditto could each and munch on the food merrily. It had competition. Shaggy rushed towards the food, and before the Ditto would catch Damien interfering the newly transformed Ditto would circle around the side of the food so that it’s rear-end shot out between the Pokechow and the other identical shaggy furred brown pig that the doppelganger had re-imagined itself into. The Ditto inhaled the Pokechow in huge gulped, coughing and hacking in fits where it had consumed too much to chew and swallow properly. Even if Damien or the other Swinub tried to interfere, the Ditto would push and shove them away with the brunt force of its forehead with loud aggressive grunts. When the food ran out, the Ditto started to squeal out angrily. It stomped around in long swooping circles before it would set its eyes – and it’s anger – on Damien and his shaggy partner. The young man had given it quite possibly the tastiest thing it could have imagined. The law of the wild often decreed that the strongest and most determined could always successfully take whatever they needed to survive. Apparently, town was much too far away for this wild Pokemon to comprehend. It reared up and started to charge forward, ready to try and bum-rush the boy for more food. It’s squeals came out more like incessant demanding screams. Intolerant, belligerent, and in desperate need of that sweet sweet Pokechow. The Swinub [Level 23] is attacking!Who will Damien send out?

[nospaces] There it was. He knew it couldn't be that easy. The ditto began wildly thrashing at anything that came near its new food, and even a reassuring word wouldn't calm the beast.
[break] "Hey! That's a funny way to show thanks," Damien complained, not sounding too unlike his mother regarding unseemly manners. The ranger saw as the wild pokémon turned its sights onto his baby swinub. That wouldn't be good. Shaggy was still nose deep in chow without a care in the world.
[break] [break] The young ranger lurched forward and grabbed his stubby pokémon along with the food. Pellets fell to the ground as he did so, and the surprised swinub squealed in kind. Damien stepped back as he arranged the bag and pokémon in his arms, leaving a decent birth should the ditto decide to sweep forward for the scraps he'd dropped along the way. Shaggy seemed to understand once his head was out of the bag. His nose snorted as he sniffed the air and listened to the territorial cries of the disguised ditto.
[break] [break] Damien quickly shuffled so that a hand was free. He plucked a ball from his belt and pressed the button. In a flash his luxio was sent to intercept the attacking Ditto. Her ears went back with all the noise, attention immediately snapping to the wild pokémon and hissing as it neared.
[break] "Andromeda, bite!" The order was simple. He couldn't think of any sort of tactics at the moment. Instead focusing on closing up the rest of the food and going back to snatch up his bag before the ditto got a hold of it. That would be a disaster.

The newly made swinub didn't care for Damien's irritation it was hungry and he had food, he better give it over right away or he'd be sorry. That was how things worked, it had been tough learning for itself but that was how it was and you either followed it or perished. It mimicked Shaggy's loud complaining as it seemed pretty effective making your point heard, and charged at Damien in its slow trotting version. Ditto was still a short stature in this version but much larger than Shaggy, if it reached Damien it could certainly topple him over, or if he was unlucky injure it. It was a pokemon after all, and they usually had quite a bit more strength than most people. Damien was aware of it and quickly got a more sturdy pokemon out to take the brunt of the incoming attack. She got her front foot knocked out under her but could to the side without loosing her balance, the ditto got distracted momentarily from the few pellets that it could pick up from the ground, swinub's nose made it smell irresistibly! Andromeda's leg was sore from the impact but she didn't need it for biting, and the ditto shrieked when her teeth clamped down on it, though the thick fur took the worst of it. Ditto wiggled in an attempt to get free but Andromeda held on tight, then it felt something different, something inside an instinct or knowledge from the form it had taken but not a think it had ever experienced before. It shuffled a bit and lifted its nose to the sky, opening the little mouth and letting the feeling loose along with its exhaling. At first nothing happened but slowly it got the hang of it and its breath turned cold, ice particles began to form and flowed high in the air, where they slowly gathered to small icicles. When they were big enough for gravity to pull down despite the constant wind pushing it upwards, they began to fall straight down. The first one hit the luxio straight in the back forcing her to let go and cover as the icicles rained down upon her, some hurting more than others. The ditto sniffed in deeply taking in what it had been doing, it had been slow this time but now it knew what to do, so it would surely be faster next time.

[nospaces] The surprise icicle attack didn't sit well with Andromeda at all. It forced her to not just release the tiny swine but to also retreat right against Damien's side; of who was in the midst of recovering his bag from the ground. She ached horribly, looking up to her trainer with watery eyes before rubbing her cheek across his pant leg. The luxio had no interest in fighting something this strong.
[break] [break] Damien looked down at his fierce girl with some confusion. Normally she'd fight tooth and nail. She was undoubtedly his more ferocious pokémon... though, now that he thought about it last time he fought a ditto she also had zero interest in pitching in. At the time that was for the best, but now?
[break] "I could really use you right now," he answered, a little panic in his voice as he hastened his deposit of Shaggy's closed food bag and closing of the pack. Andromeda would have none of it. The rage squealing of the opposing swinub made her drop her ears again and she shrunk behind the ranger. "Oh no..." he muttered, realizing he was now wide open. He still had his baby pokémon in his arms, cooperating for now though still making noises when Ditto got particularly loud. Leaving his item bag for the moment Damien's free hand darted down to grab another of his pokéballs.
[break] [break] With barely a touch the party member materialized from his ball. The wartortle let out a yawn as he took in the surroundings. It was cut very short with the disturbance of the wild pokémon.
[break] "tortle?" He pointed at the swinub with the mean look in its squinty eyes.
[break] [break] "Yeah, but go easy on it okay? Go with a headbutt." Damien would barely have time to spit out the suggestion before his new defender would become engaged in the fight. Damien took the opportunity to retreat further away, snatching the arm of his bag and pulling it away to safety. Andromeda followed, limping slightly.
[break] "Alright girl, back in you go then." It was brisk, but he had to pay attention to Turret now. He didn't want this ditto to get away. Much like that drowzee Damien figured he should probably try and take this pokémon out of the wild so it didn't become a danger to others. It was stealing and had a bad temperament.
[break] [break] Once he figured he'd given the battling pokémon enough of a safe birth, Damien went to digging for a nest ball.

The Ditto’s stomach rumbled and growled. In its newly sharpened shaggy form, the wild Pokemon snorted and grunted while is faced off against Andromeda. Its nose pulled in deep breaths of air and huffed them back out in quick, powerful expulsions. It grunted in its frustration. Where bits of Pokechow had once been missed, the short-limbed doppelganger of a Swinub rushed forward in an odd gate and inhaled the pieces up into its mouth. It found bits of human trash along the search and gobbled it up as well, sucking off all the yummy bits and spitting out old wrappers. Damien’s Andromeda returned to his side, and within a quick instance another Pokemon approached the scene. This one was a tall blue bipedal turtle with long ears and a long, flowy bushy tail. This strange new creature seemed eager and ready, with a glint in his eyes as if to say that it awaited a good, strong fight. The wild Ditto snorted and squealed out, shaking its head from side to side. Its nose seemed to glow as it sniffed the air violently and took even deeper breaths of air. It was sniffing Turret out, trying to dispel any illusions that Damien and its newfound challenger might have tried to employ. Turret moved fast and raced off. Slam! The Ditto rolled across the ground in its small stature. I squealed out and rolled back around as pain singed through its right side where the Wartortle had come crashing into it. The rash blue turtle had used its head like a battering ram and toppled the small statured Ditto over easily. As it squealed it started to breath out frigid sharp spears that would come crashing down on its opponent. It the Ditto expected it to be just as damaging as it had been for Andromeda, though, it would have been in for quite a surprise.

[nospaces] With rapid glances the ranger watched how his faithful turtle was fairing versus the hangry fake swinub. His hands busily juggling between keeping his own swinub comfortable-ish in his grip and finding the right kind of pokéball to use on this wild pokémon. It was becoming a problem that he had so many regular balls on-hand, and as usual he wasn't the most organized individual.
[break] [break] "Come on, where are you..?" he mumbled, pausing as he heard the crash of more icicles pelting the field. Turret looked alright, his shell holding up strong against all of the doppel-swinub's physical attacks. "You're doing great Turret! Just one more moment..." he trailed off as his attention diverted back down into the mess of a pack. Finally the pale yellow stripe caught his eye.
[break] "Ah hah!" he called victoriously, swiftly pulling the special device out. He'd been collecting these especially for cases like this. A regular ball wasn't going to be strong enough for something like ditto. He needed something more specialized. Although... this particular ditto didn't seem nearly as young as the last one he'd encountered so there was no telling how effective it was going to be. Plus...
[break] [break] The boy pressed the button to activate the capture device and observed their uproarious friend. It didn't look like he was weak enough yet either. Still full of energy as it thrashed about. Damien was unsure. But waiting around wasn't going to get him anywhere so he might as well take the risk.
[break] [break] "Hang tight." He directed his wartortle, reeling his arm back to make the throw.

The temporary swinub looked on expectantly as the icicles rained down upon the wartortle, it had seen what they could do before and was looking forward to see the same result. It wasn't often it found a creature to mimic that had such useful moves in its arsenal and it was nice to try out for a chance. Big was its surprise when Turret simply withdrew his head and most of the icicles drummed off his shell without doing any damage, although it first understood it when his head popped back out and he looked as fresh as before. It stared for several heartbeats and then began to snort and grunt frustrated, this wasn't fair. It was hungry and needed to put the human in his place to he would understand who was in charge so it could get all the food. Something colorful in the air caught its interest and it sniffed loudly as it tried to figure out what it was, it looked a bit like a berry, didn't it? As the nest ball came closer ditto was certain it could smell the yummy pellets from before, and without thinking why the round ball, that looked nothing like the food it had been given earlier it rushed forward to meet it. That was the second surprise it got that day, as it didn't get time to find out where the food was before it was sucked inside. It rocked violently back and forth, the content clearly not pleased with this arrangement, but at last the pokeball won the battle and it laid still, dinging to confirm the capture. Did pokemon feel hunger inside the pokeball? ![](https://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/bw/wartortle.png) Turret finished the battle and gains 1150 exp. He levels up to lvl 29! (437/2611) He can learn Water Pulse if he forgets another move. He also gains +1 happiness ![](https://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/bw/luxio.png) Andromeda did what she could and grows with 2 levels (Lucky Egg) to level 22.
