ZAIDEN KABILA Aspiring Champion Bike Mode: ON | Time: Day Skitty lowered itself against the ground and folded its ears against its head. It hissed angrily at its opponent, curling around to try and keep its gaze focused on Hebi. This was it. It’s meal had delivered himself onto the Skitty’s doorsteps and all the pink feline needed to do was simply collect it. Though, much like a Doordash order gone wrong, the Skitty was having a hard time finding the strength to strike its foe down. It growled at the top of its voice, making Hebi feel weaker in comparison as the snake coiled up and narrowed his gaze down on the small kitten. Skitty thwacked his tail against the ground and extended its claws. Even as the paralysis seeped through its veins, the small kitten felt the insatiable urge to shake it off, pounce on top of Hebi, and rip the scaly purple serpent to shreds. Hebi snapped. He unleashed all of his energy in a single strike, wrapping the small kitten up inside of his tightly packed coils. Skitty kicked and screamed, struggling against Hebi’s thick hide. The more the cat squirmed against his large coils, the tighter Hebi barreled down and tightened his hold. Skitty struggled to breath, heaving, and wheezing with each breath. The pain was immense. It felt like it was being shoved through the world’s smallest hole. Skitty’s bones felt as though they would shatter into a million pieces. The feline rocketed back and forth, struggling and squirming in vain. The tighter Hebi squeezed the more desperate the Skitty became. Then, when Skitty was fighting and struggling as hard as it possibly could, slamming its claws and tail against the large beast, it slumped over in an instance. Hebi smirked and unhinged his jaws. It would only take the snake seconds to wrap his mouth around his new prey. However, Zaiden had other plans. He had already watched his serpentine Pokemon slip one of the pink snakes down the old hatch and he wasn’t too keen to watch it happen again. Zaiden yanked Hebi’s Pokeball free and recalled his Pokemon with the click of a button. The beige teenager stared simply at Hebi’s Pokeball as he frowned. How could he be upset for Hebi reacting through his natural instincts? At the same time, Zaiden didn’t feel so comfortable allowing the snake to snap up and swallow everything he found. Zaiden would climb back out of the littered alleyway and continue on his way through Cherrygrove. Two ladies walked past him with high-pitched, excited squeals. “Did you hear?!” One of the girls spoke to her friend, yanking on her friend’s shoulder excitedly. The other girl laughed while slowly pulling her arm free from her friend. She shook her head as she spoke, “No, what?” The other one jumped up and down on her feet and spun around in the air as though she were dancing, even though there was no music playing. “They finally found the Trubbish that was hiding in the city! They’re rolling out a new program to ensure our streets are never overflowing with litter again!” Zaiden turned away and walked off as he listened to their conversation with a heavy sigh and shrug of his shoulders. Had he already missed out the elusive Pokemon and the grand prize? That sucked. But he needed another method. Something. His family was depending on him. Zaiden felt like he was a letdown and that he wasn’t able to live up to the expectations of his family and the expectations that he had placed on his own shoulders? How could he help his parents and save their home? How could he help his dad’s shop and ensure that they could hold their head above water? He was only fifteen, sure, but surely there was more that he could do. More that he should do! A strange noise caught his attention and Zaiden paused when he noticed a small blue head pop out of a trash can and stare at him. He slowly reached out towards the tiny Taillow, hoping that the wild bird wouldn't try to peck him half to death. OOC: Using Pokeradar for Taillow encounter! Yamori is evolve, self-updating.

ZAIDEN KABILA Aspiring Champion Bike Mode: ON | Time: Day The nervous boy reached a solitary hand nervously towards the small blue bird. His fingers trembled as he neared the beast, hoping to befriend the wild avian. The gutsy little swallow turned and hopped up into the air as it beat its wings hard to create a strong gust of wind. It trilled in warning, soaring up above Zaiden and hovering above him. Enraged, it swooped through the air in great loops, creating quite the breathtaking spectacle as it drew illusory outlines of imaginary beast fights in the skies above. It turned back around, diving down at a breakneck speed, and began to peck the young boy viciously against the top of his head. Who was he to enter its domain?! It would show this young fool his place by chasing him far away from the meals that it had managed to scrounge up. Onlookers stopped in mid-feast and turned their sharp eyes upon their brethren. They turned and chatted amongst each other in shushed whispers. One brave soul turned back towards its comrade and began to fan its wings and beat them against the ground, creating a melodious tune like war drums singing for the waking world to hear. They hooped and hollered, screaming at the top of their lungs towards the mighty comrade who was known around the area as the Trainer Killer. They knew that Taillow was the bravest warrior of them all – its tales of glory had far surpassed its skill levels and created it into a hero among birds. And the Taillow relished in the moment, full of itself and its ability to chase away such simply human vermin. Zaiden jumped back in alarm. His eyes widened and he crouched, tucking his head between his arms defensively as he curved his body in an awkward S shape. Biege arms shot up and waved around sporadically. The Taillow’s sharp beak clawed against Zaiden’s arms, breaking his skin open as it tore into his soft flesh. He stumbled, falling backwards onto the ground with a loud yelp. The Taillow landed on top of the boy in an instance, digging its claws into his shirt and trying to lift the young lad up into the air like he was some sort of prize. Zaiden batted at the bluebird in vain with one hand while he fumbled through the dirt and grass for his bag in the other. In a terrified hurry, Zaiden pulled out a random Pokeball and tossed it out onto the battlefield. A bright purple snake appeared, alerted, and upset that his nap had been ruined. “Ssslleeeppp.” It hissed as it coiled its elongated body underneath its head. His tail thumped against the ground and hissed with a long, drawn out rattle. Hebi prepared the world for his assault, squaring his head off as he took aim at the Taillow through narrowed eyes that locked down upon their opponent. He swayed rhythmically with the beat, channeling the beast within. The serpent’s large jaws opened wide and pooled thick layers of saliva that dripped down onto the ground below with a loud Hssss as the venomous acid ate away at the grass under-scale. The swallow was messing with the wrong human! Hebi unfolded two long, sharp dagger-like fangs from the roof of his mouth with a devious grin. “Myyyy huummaannnn!” The loud hiss clung to the air in warning. Then, Hebi lunged through the air like a bullet being fired out of the chamber. He slid with his mouth agape and eyes fixated on the small avian, aiming to try to immediately snap his jaws down upon his newfound pray and wrap himself tightly around his hard won prize. Zaiden, however, had other plans. Once the Taillow was preoccupied with his snake, the lad would squirm and crawl away to a safe vantage point. He would immediately pull his bag into his lap, throwing the top of the back wide open, and plunged both hands into it as he fumbled around for a spare ball. Zaiden would smile as his hands caressed the cold, metallic touch of the round device. He yanked it out immediately and prepared to toss it with a click of a button, hopeful that he could snag the bird before his snake made a meal of it. But, man, was that close! The blood that seeped from his open wounds hurt and burned slightly from the touch. OOC: Sending out Hebi who uses Bite. Then throwing a Great Ball. Self-Updating should have 6 remaining Great Balls.

Saving us all some time with this haha. I actually used the capture formula, got a probability of capture, used an RNG to then determine if your capture fell in probability. So in the end...

Taillow used Peck which did 6 HP damage, Hebi used Bite which did 9HP damage.
The capture was a success!
You already updated your inventory to account for the Great Ball.

Hebi grew to Level 12! Hebi wants to learn the move Glare, but Hebi already knows four moves! Replace a move with Glare?


Robin grew to Level 9!

ZAIDEN KABILA Aspiring Champion Bike Mode: ON | Time: Day The venomous serpent coiled his long body up underneath himself as he lifted his head up high into the air. Where did the prey go? Sharp yellow eyes with slitted black pupils searched around the open city streets as his tongue slipped from between his scaley lips and tasted the air. Why couldn’t Hebi taste his prey if it had gone in hiding? He slipped back onto the cold, hard concrete ground and stretched himself out as he slithered around, searching underneath random boxes and around every corner for the small bluebird. Then suspicion seized Hebi’s heart as he raised his head up and shook the long yellow rattles on the end of his tail. Sschchchchchch ssssschchchch chchssssschchchch Hebi turned a quick glance in his trainer’s direction and watched the young lad that he had slowly begun to form a bond with lift himself up off the ground and brush himself off. Hssssss Hebi tasted the air, blinking slowly, and wondered suspiciously. Did this human take away his newfound prey item? The mousy-brown haired teenager picked up the small blue ball after it finished bouncing around on the city streets and brushed off the bit of debris that clung to its hard casing. Zaiden smiled to himself as he watched it teleport away to his Personal Computer and imagined the newfound Taillow playing with his other Pokemon at the lab. Would they welcome the new Pokemon with open paws and wings and play wondrous games with him? Would Hageshii and the new Taillow become close friends now that they could fly together in a flock, along with Tsubasa and Kamome? Though, when the young lad noticed his coiled up snake eying him down suspiciously as he curled himself up like a tightly packed spring ready to unfurl all of its kinetic energy, Zaiden jumped backwards and fumbled for Hebi’s ball. What had gotten into his poisonous snake? Zaiden had managed to snag the bird with a perfectly placed Great Ball before Hebi had managed to swallow his newfound Pokemon whole, though the snake had only reacted because the Taillow had attacked Zaiden. The young trainer was eternally grateful that his Pokemon though to react so quickly but…now it seemed as though it was turning on him? The mousy brown haired teenager gulped, pulling Hebi’s red-and-white ball free and recalling his snake with a click of a button before Hebi had the chance to strike. Would he still try to strike Zaiden even after all they’ve worked on to come this close? Was a snake only bound by its instincts, and therefore lacked the capability to form deep and personal connections? Zaiden sighed, shaking his head, as he turned towards the nearby Pokemon Center and walked inside to promptly use their computers and access his storage. With a heavy heart, the lad would carefully pluck several of his team from their respective spots in their balls on his belt and place them in the transmitter. Rich brown eyes saddened and waved as he watched them each slowly digitalize and disappear into his personal storage. Then, after clicking around inside of the computer and making a well-placed call to the Professor, Zaiden would pull out his violent little black-and-white bird with its bright red marking, along with his comedic relief of a monkey, his skittish brown rabbit, his shy water lizard, and his battle ready hedgehog. The only one that remained from the previous team was his strange grassy turtle, who seemed to love to be the center of attention. Zaiden would then leave the Pokemon Center with a silent wave goodbye to Nurse Joy and make a hasty retreat onto the nearby route. The sun shone brightly in the open skies above, promising fair weather for the time being. Something small and green, barely visible in the tall grasses, would immediately catch Zaiden’s eye. The young trainer carefully walked over to the tall grasses and crouched down to hide within their cover to try and see what was lurking on the other side. Was it something that was nearly as suicidally sadistic as his last encounter with the Taillow? Please, no. Or could it be something that was calmer and easier to manage that remained well hidden within the tall grasses? OOC: Requesting Caterpie encounter!

It was a wonderful day and this little wild caterpie was busy eating its full in leaves in the hope of getting enough energy to make itself a cocoon to sustain the winter and get wings by next spring when all the flowers bloomed. It paused every other mouthful to scan the skies and listen for dangers, of course to succeed in that it would have to survive until then, and the faint scars on its back showed it had had first hand experience with the birds of prey which lived around here.

Something rustled nearby and it froze, snapping its head around in alarm. Zaiden pushed some grass aside to peek and locked eyes with the alert Caterpie. It blinked a few times and then squealed. A human! A human meant food and protection! A human would help defend it and give it battle experience which meant it would evolve faster and not have to worry about being someone elses dinner all the time! It flailed excitedly with its stubby feet and crawled as fast as it could towards the trainer, grinning from ear to ear.

Caterpie [Lv 7] drops what its doing and rushes over to Zaiden.

ZAIDEN KABILA Aspiring Champion Bike Mode: ON | Time: Day The quiet teenager watched in disbelief as the small green bug rushed over to his side. Zaiden jumped backwards and fell on his butt before scooting away from the Caterpie. The small caterpillar stopped as its bright red antennas expanded and contracted. Caterpie’s eyes swelled as small droplets of water clung to their corners. It was hurt. Was the human terrified of it like it was of the birds in the sky? Caterpie backed up and curled its head back down to the ground to try and hide its face. It wasn’t some evil predator and didn’t mean to scare the human! It just wanted the safety and comfort that humans provided. “Piiiiee piiiieeee…” It muttered to itself as it cried and shook its head. Zaiden paused for a second and blinked heavily. “Oh…hey there. I’m sorry…” He muttered underneath his breath. He turned to his bag and began flipping around through his team members as he tried to find someone that wouldn’t scare away the sweet little bug. “You don’t mean any harm…huh?” The small green caterpillar turned back around and raised its head up towards Zaiden’s as it shook its whole body. It rushed up Zaiden’s legs and crawled towards his shoulders in gleeful excitement, nestling up against the young lad’s neck. “Pieee! Piiieee!” Zaiden nodded slowly and pulled out a small Pokeball. Yarite appeared out of the Pokeball with the click of a button. His eyes widened in alarm, and he skittered off through the tall grasses over to a nearby pond. There was danger everywhere! The skies were full of it! Yarite’s bright blue skin faded away until he disappeared inside of the body of water, where only the ripples on the water’s surface would give it away. The Sobble watched the skies above in silence, shaking like a leaf as he hid. There was danger everywhere! Everything wanted to eat him alive, and he didn’t like being eaten! “It’s ok…” Zaiden called to his skittish Pokemon, who remained hidden for sometimes, stubbornly sure that danger lurked around every corner. “Yarite.” Slowly. Softly. Zaiden carefully spoke to his Pokemon as he walked over to the edge of the water and lowered his hand to allow Caterpie to ‘hop off’ and face his new opponent. “See?” Zaiden nodded. Yarite would slowly crawl out of the water as he tilted his head and allowed some color to return back to his skin. “You’re not going to hurt me?” The small lizard asked the tiny bug. Caterpie’s eyes widened with worry that mixed with excitement. “No, never! I just thought your trainer could protect me from the birds of the sky!” Caterpie explained, though sadness returned back to its face. “I didn’t mean to scare anyone…”Yarite reached out to gently slap Caterpie’s ‘shoulder’ with one of his hands as he laughed. “Oh…ok! Wanna play then?” The two Pokemon would run around through the thick grasses in a high speed chase of one another. Caterpie shot out from the thick grasses and tapped its opponent with its small, green body as it tagged Yarite. Giggling, Yarite would spin around and chase the small green bug back. Zaiden smiled as he wrapped his arms around his legs and watched the two at play. They seemed so happy in their moment, zipping back and forth as one chased the other, that he didn’t want to ruin the moment. Yarite would try to smack the small green bug with his tail as he playfully attacked his friend in their game of tag. After some time, Zaiden would pull out a free Pokeball and hold it out for Caterpie as he gestured towards the skies, then to the ball, as if to promise to protect the small bug from its predators above. OOC: Sending out Yarite who uses Pound. Then offering Caterpie a Pokeball. (*The "try to smack the small green bug" part is where Yarite officially tries to use Pound*).

ZAIDEN KABILA Aspiring Champion Bike Mode: ON | Time: Day Yarite cowered down in the tall grasses when Zaiden walked over with the Pokeball. Was play time over for the two of them? Did he do something that had upset his trainer? The small blue lizard’s wide blue eyes stared with fear and apprehension as he pressed his body against the cool dirt of the earthen ground below. Parts of his skin began to fade away, making it so that he looked like a floating head without a body. “We were just…playing…and I was having…a lot of fun…and…ugh…” Yarite fumbled all over his words as he watched Zaiden turn towards his friend and offer the Caterpie a Pokeball. The bright blue watery lizard relaxed a little and watched his friend press the center of the Pokeball with its large nose and disappear inside of the device in the blink of an eye. Was he going to be able to keep his friend with him? That made Yarite pretty happy to know that he wasn’t the only timid Pokemon that could remain on the team. When the Pokeball vanished in thin air, though, Yarite ran over to Zaiden and gripped the young man’s pants legs with his small feet. “I don’t ask for much…and I just…well, see he was my friend and ugh…can we add him to the team?” The small lizard begged Zaiden with big, wide eyes that seemed like they would burst into tears at any moment. Zaiden nodded his head thoughtfully and reached down to pet his small lizard whose skin was mostly transparent. There were parts of him – like small patches along with his head – that remained completely visible and in full color. Though most of the Sobble had seemingly faded with the fog that swelled up all around them. Although Zaiden didn’t know what his Pokemon was seeming to ask him, he wanted to comfort the little guy. Had something spooked him in the air or in the tall grasses around them? Zaiden shielded his eyes and scanned the area, but he couldn’t seem to find anything lurking out within the shadows of the dense fog around them. At least, not right away. Something floated by like a strange round ball with propellers attached its top. Several of them floated up and down on the open breeze, swaying with the wind itself. As they swayed and bobbed, Zaiden rubbed his eyes and tried to figure out what they could be. Were they some strange sort of craft like a drone or unidentified object that floated with the wind? Or were they some type of Pokemon, instead? Had he ever encountered a Pokemon quite like them in his past? It all seemed so strange and foreign to the young lad that he wasn’t sure what to make of it. Yarite, however, knew exactly what to make of it. Enemies that wanted to eat him alive! With a loud scream, the lizard ducked behind Zaiden’s legs and clung to Zaiden’s jeans with his small hands as he shook and shivered. The parts of him that hadn’t gone transparent immediately faded into the background so that he couldn’t be seen at all. They weren’t going to eat him if they couldn’t find him! He pushed on the back of Zaiden’s leg gently as if to tell his trainer, ‘you go investigate that bull, I’m not going! I like living, thank you very much!’ Zaiden giggled as he turned around and recalled his Pokemon back inside of his Pokeball, before turning back around to venture back out towards the strange, floating things. What could they be? Though their large eyes and familiar shapes let him know they were Pokemon, he tried to remember what they were called. OOC: Requesting a Hoppip encounter, please!

This pokemon here is just floating about, enjoying life. Seriously, it's trying to relax. It doesn't want any trouble. Just a chill, wonderful time, soaking up some... okay not so much sun.

ZAIDEN KABILA Aspiring Champion Bike Mode: ON | Time: Day The young teenager scratched his head as he stared at the floating cottonweed. What exactly was it? The small Pokemon had large, serrated leaves jutting out of its head like a plant. But it also had large, triangular-shaped ears and a small tail with a face that seemed almost cat like to the young lad. He fumbled around inside of the soft inner clothing of his pants pocket and pulled out his trusty Pokedex. The screen lit up in an instance as a familiar voice jutted to life and a bright light emanated from the touchscreen pad. “Hoppip the Cottonweed Pokemon. This Pokemon drifts and floats with the wind. If it senses the approach of strong winds, Hoppip links its leaves with other Hoppip to prepare against being blown away.” What a strange Pokemon. Zaiden didn’t quite understand how any Pokemon could simply be toted off by the wind itself. Didn’t Pokemon change the weather? Weren’t they strong enough to summon the elements at their disposal? Yet, here was this strange weed-like Pokemon that seemed to be at the mercy of any breeze billowing past. They used each other for support, battling against the winds by hooking up with one another and… what? Hoping that the wind wasn’t stronger than their unity? The teenager pulled out another Pokeball and released a small hedgehog with leafy green quills to face off against the cottonweed as he tried to wrap his head around the idea. “Hejii use Tackle.” Zaiden instructed simply. Would Hejji’s Tackle be too much force for the little cottonweed? Would every attack that could cause the winds around it to shift and change be too much for it, really? Hejji jumped out of his Pokeball and landed immediately on the tips of his toes. Finally! He was free of that awful contraption. The furry brown hedgehog knew that he was wasting away inside of his Pokeball, with nothing to bench press and no real exercises to help beef up his growing muscles. What was he supposed to do? Be satisfied at only beefing up his mentality through guided meditation?! There was only so much ‘Namaste’ that one Pokemon could take before they would quite literally snap! He needed to feel weights pressing against his muscles. He needed to feel them ripping and shredding underneath his skin, until they were absolutely bulging! Until…he saw his opponent just…literally floating on the wind itself. “Oh, excuse me ugh…?” What exactly was it? A cat? A dandelion? Some kind of root dug out of the ground and left to just float away like this was some sort of fairy tale? “I’m Hejji and I really haven’t had a chance to work on leg day or arm day. I miss working out!” Hejji complained, stretching his arms and legs to rev up his muscles for the upcoming battle. “Do you work out? Uhm…I’m sorry, that’s probably obviously a ‘no’. But maybe you can start working out with me? I can show you the ropes, you know!” Hejji rushed at the top of his speed after his opponent and leaped up high into the air to attempt to ram his body into the small Hoppip’s body. Zaiden fished around inside of his bag as the two battled it out in front of him. Worried that Hejji would simply be too much power for the cottonweed, he began to search for one of his Pokeballs as a failsafe. As soon as he had a clear shot after Hejji had a chance to try to attack, Zaiden would hurl the ball through the air after the Hoppip. He had to hope that if the Pokemon was too weak to battle a gently blowing breeze, it would be too weak to escape its Pokeball. But he wasn’t quite sure what to expect, either. Zaiden bit his lower lip as he watched the Pokeball soar through the air towards Hoppip anxiously. The last question he had to wander was if there was even a market for Hoppip to begin with. Was there? OOC: Sending out Hejji who uses Tackle. Then throwing a Pokeball. If battle ends I'd like to use Mod Bar on Hihi! Self-Updating -Pokeball should have 6 left. Words: 678 | Speech.

ZAIDEN KABILA Aspiring Champion Bike Mode: ON | Time: Day The strange pink Pokemon stared at Hejji as he spoke about working out? With each gust of wind, she would swing this way and that on the billowing breeze. She floated up in long, winding circles, and away from Hejji as a strong gust swept across the land. Then, when a conflicting gust blew in the opposite direction, the small plant Pokemon would float back towards Hejji and the battlefield. Hoppip reached out and grabbed the long branch of a small sapling and clung on for dear life as she swayed in the open breeze. Once the foggy terrain calmed down a bit and she was able to plant her feet firmly upon the soil, Hoppip shook herself and turned towards Hejji with a wide smile. “I don’t work out, no. Why? That sounds so silly! Do other Pokemon work out?” She asked her ‘opponent’ curiously. Hejji jumped up and pumped his arms in the air as his eyes widened in disbelief. A Pokemon that had never heard of working out?! How did she survive in the strange and dangerous wilderness around her?! “Of course they do!” Hejji’s voice boomed confidently. He waved his arms in the air and jumped on the tips of his feet as he tried to point at…well, everything around them. “How else do you protect yourself from all the Boogiemon that live in the wilderness around you?!” Hejji demanded to know. Hopping laughed, covering her face with her hands, and stared off to the side. “Well…I’m pretty weak, see? And I just…go where the wind take me…I guess!” Hejji’s face dropped! I kid you not, his lower jaw fell on the ground below him and his eyes unscrewed out of the sockets in his face to fall on the ground as well. Like some Saturday Morning Cartoons shenanigan or something! He immediately pressed his hands against his face and snapped out of it, though he was still trying to process what Hoppip was telling him. “I promise once you’re part of our team, I’ll work with you every day to make sure you get stronger! This ‘blowing in the wind’ business just isn’t a way to live!” Hoppip tilted her head in confusion. “Part of your team?” Then she was sucked up inside of her Pokeball, which rolled about on the ground for a few minutes before dinging with success and teleporting off to the lab. Zaiden turned back around and walked down a long, gently sloping hill to the bottom where a small babbling creek rolled gently through the route. The beige teenager would slowly follow the flowing creek as he searched the area for any more Pokemon. The sounds of something gnawing and squeaking caught his attention. Was there a Pokemon nearby? It sounded like it was destroying the forest itself! The way the teeth chattered and grind against some strange, obviously tough object made Zaiden gulp. How strong was this strange Pokemon? Could his Pokemon handle the challenge if he pitted them against it? Lurking through the tall grasses carefully, Zaiden would peer around the trunk of a large oak tree. What he saw would only increase the shocking feeling that Zaiden had built up in his chest. Long pieces of chewed up planks were carefully stacked in a strange dome shape with small holes drilled into its sides. A furry brown beaver sat lazily on the top of the mound with a small log pressed firmly in between its hands as it worked furiously with its large buck teeth. The Pokemon was strange and interesting – something Zaiden couldn’t readily tell if he’d come across before it in his travels or not. He would carefully crawl out of the grass towards the Pokemon as he gripped one of the Pokeballs on his belt and prepared for a battle. OOC: Requesting Bidoof encounter!

Fog swirled among the trees and the bidoof was thinking hard, creatively. This was going to be its masterpiece! This majestic tree had been fallen to meet a greater purpose! When it was done with it, everyone would be in awe and the world a little bit better place with a little bit more joy.
Something shuffled in the grass and it glanced in that direction, "I know you are eager, but I'm not done yet!" It called out to whoever it thought it was.

Bidoof [lv 7] is working on its next masterpiece!
Fog will be in effect.
