Anapa had learned the hard way about cutting battles short for the sake of training, but she'd still gotten stronger. It was a strange lesson to learn, but Sam wanted to teach her that there were more ways to get stronger other than just defeating every Pokemon in front of her. That being said, that was probably what was going to happen for the rest of the training session, unless Sam found something cool she wanted to catch. Sometimes it was just nice to end a battle quickly, ya know? Anapa walked alongside Sam, hand holding onto the side of her pants in a little bundle. "This is Cherrygrove, how do you like it?" Sam asked, glancing around at the city itself. She'd never really been in a large city, so it was better to start off with something small like Cherrygrove. That, and the Pokemon were a little stronger here than they were in New Bark. "They always keep these streets clean, and there's wild Pokemon everywhere! I wonder if it's the smell of the bakery, or the places to eat?" It probably had something to do with it. "We're gonna work on some moves here, okay?" Sam procured a tiny TM, disc shining in the light. Anapa gazed at it with silent wonder. "Counter is a good move, but i'd rather save that for a battle where we know what to expect. I don't want you to get too hurt. Let's have you try this instead." Anapa nodded her head, punching her fist into her open hand. While Anapa was eager, she was still a young pup with no idea what she'd turn into. At least Sam didn't know, anyway. For all she knew, Anapa would stay small and adorable like this forever. The Earthquake TM was used up, and Anapa was ready for some carnage training. "Here ya go! Try using that a few times in the next battle."Earthquake x2 on whatever comes up

As Sam and her Riolu continued their training, the Pokemon of Cherrygrove were snug in their beds due to the cold weather they’d been having as of late. All except for one unlucky Pokemon who decided to peek out for a quick survey of the area, a Meowth. It began watching the ground carefully, as to not slip on the ice that covered Cherrygrove’s grounds and sidewalks. But in its concentration it had forgotten to pay attention to its surroundings and bumped right into Anapa!
The cat was startled for sure, being a wild Pokemon it was upset it let its guard down. Who knows what foes lurked in the streets these days? In a reactionary attempt to protect itself it scratched Anapa promptly. But in return it watched as the ground began to shake and the ice it stood upon broke and flung towards the Meowth. What was this crazy move?! How does such a small Pokemon have a powerful attack such as this? Regardless, the Meowth went in for another scratch, no way to give up now when the foe had a move with such large range. Another earthquake shook the cat up, leaving it close to passing out from exhaustion. Battle Weather: Chinook Meowth | Level 7 | HP: 8% (2/24) Status: +1 SPD from weather Used Scratch x2! VS

With the cold snap came the long waiting times for finding opponents in the grasses. It was smart for Pokemon to hide, all bundled up in their nests and dens. Anapa took to quiet meditation while Sam browsed the internet on her phone, trying to find more information on the strange Pokemon she'd picked up for her team. She knew Anapa was a Riolu, but there wasn't much information on them outside of that. They were definitely hardy Pokemon, but it seemed as though they were pretty rare. And she'd hatched from an egg, no less. Does that mean she had been bred by someone specifically, or was she just wild born randomly and picked up to incubate before the cold season started? Too many questions, not enough answers. Meanwhile, Anapa sat quietly, eyes and ears closed off to the world. She could only hear and feel the sound of her breathing. Everything was quiet and tranquil until.... BUMP! Anapa let out a surprised yip, startling both herself, the Meowth, and Sam. All attention on the intruding cat, Anapa quickly scrambled to her feet and held her fists in the air. She was ready to fight! "Great recovery, Anapa!" As Sam was praising the pup though, claws were already unsheathed and raking down Anapa's side. She gritted her teeth, but withstood the attack. Strategically stepping off to the side to hold onto a tree, Sam waited for Anapa to experiment with her new move. With a punch to the ground, everything rattled around the pup. The earth trembled and buckled around Meowth. The look of utter shock from the feline was almost amusing, if it hadn't followed it up immediately with another scratch. Fielding two hits hurt, but not as much as the second Earthquake was going to. Once again, everything buckled and shook while Anapa remained at the center of it all. Once the trembling subsided, Anapa threw Sam a look over her shoulder, waiting for command. She was becoming more disciplined. With each battle, with each move, she'd continue to grow for sure. Sam didn't want to prolong the battle though this time. Anapa had been injured and she wanted to heal her up quickly. "No ball this time. Anapa, let's finish this! Quick Attack!" The Meowth probably wouldn't be quick enough to knock out Anapa in time, so hopefully this plan would work. She could have caught the cat, but at risk of possibly fielding more damage to Anapa if it failed. The pup gave a nod, and prepared for the next round. Quick Attack yoooooo

Anapa’s earthquakes were quite the attack against Meowth. It helped that the typing difference gave our little fighting Pokemon the upper hand, soon enough she would learn a fighting type move and then all the normal type Pokemon would be sorry! Meowth attempted to gain some footing after all of that commotion and due to the damage from battle, the kitty cat could barely stand. The normal type Pokemon looked despairingly at our protagonist Anapa, upset that the battle went so terribly.
Anapa steered carefully but valiantly slid across the ice toward the Meowth who looked with horror as it was about to meet its fate. Mouth agape, the Meowth watched as the Riolu came in for the kill! A swift quick attack walloped the Meowth who slid across the ice, passed out from exhaustion. Anapa felt successful upon another victory, she could feel the experience growing within her. With the Meowth knocked out in the distance, it was time for the group to find a new mission to accomplish. Anapa gained 4 levels and is now level 11! She gained +1 happiness! Should Anapa learn feint? Commander gained 1 level and is now level 19! Should Commander learn roar? ((My internet shut down for a little bit so I apologize for the delay!))

The Earthquakes had really shaken up the competition, Anapa noticed. Not being accustomed to a Pokemon with such a volatile move, Meowth has having a hard time keeping up with the battle. Although Anapa had gotten two good strikes in, it hadn't been enough. Thankfully she was set on course to take this Pokemon out with her own two hands. Er, paws? There were no Pokeballs involved. Just good old experience. Anapa could feel something stirring in her soul, almost calling to her. This was where she belonged. On the battlefield. Deftly dashing forward, Anapa struck her target hard and true. Meowth fell to the ground without so much as another scratch, leaving the pup the victor. Power surged through her as she grew stronger. She tossed a grin over towards Sam, showing a little bit more emotion towards the strange girl that had taken her under her wing. Perhaps she had hatched for the right person. "Great job, Anapa! Man, you're tearing through 'em now. That move is perfect for you." Sam picked up the pup and 'booped' her nose with a free finger, chilly from the cold. "Next up i'm taking you somewhere else for a battle. Hope you're ready! You're growing quick!" -FIN- Ignoring Both moves, Finishing thread
