ZAIDEN KABILA Aspiring Champion Bike Mode: -- | Time: --- The beige teenager stood still as he watched the Krabby scuttle closer to him with a strange looking Pokemon. Its body appeared to be encased inside of a thick grey exoskeleton, though large purple antennas stuck out from its head, and some of its purple body pushed out around the face and back. The Pokemon scurried on the ground nervously as though it would turn tail and rush back off to disappear inside of one of its sandy tunnels in the face of the adversity. Zaiden paused, kneeling down on the ground beside the Pokemon carefully while he observed it in all of its splendor. It was an interesting Pokemon, and so unlike anything he had come across before. Quietly, the young lad pulled out a Pokedex and flipped it open to better understand the Pokemon in front of him. The bright red device illuminated in an instance as its screen came to life. In the center of the screen stood the very same Pokemon that Zaiden was staring at in front of him, spinning around to show off different angles as the device spoke. “ Wimpod, the Turn Tail Pokémon. From beaches to seabeds, Wimpod live in all kinds of places. They eat anything, even if it's rotten. Nature's vacuum cleaners!” He frowned, obviously not satisfied with this answer alone, and began to click around on the device’s pad to get more answers. “ This Pokémon is a coward. As it desperately dashes off, the flailing of its many legs leaves a sparkling clean path in its wake.” That made a lot of sense, considering how he watched it cower away skittishly from his side. “It’s…ok…” The usually mute boy spoke in soft, soothing tones. He knew what it was like to feel a heavy sense of dread that seemed to surround him. He often worried about the type of trainer he was and if he was any good for his own Pokemon. He had anxiety that welled up like a beast inside of his chest whenever he saw others nearby and stole away his voice. He fought even now to speak to the small wimpod, only finding strength in the similarities he pulled out from the other Pokemon and himself. “Here…” Zaiden would pull out a small blue Pokeball with black netting over its top and gently press it forward as Uba appeared from her Pokeball and stood close to the lad. At first, she would bleat in warning, then calmed down when she noticed the Wimpod wasn’t a danger. “Are you scared, little fella? Zaiden’s a sweet guy. We’re not sure he could harm a fly by himself, really…” She spoke soothingly to the other Pokemon. OOC: Sending out Uba and using Net Ball on Wimpod. Self-updating. 1 Net Ball left!

At first, Shinya was actually enjoying himself, as he and his two newly hatched Pokemon all smiled happily. The sun was shining brightly overhead, the ocean waves washed gently over the beach, and Yanma and Joltik were enjoying their respective meals on Shinya's head and shoulder. All the while, Shinya himself walked along the beach, searching for any and all Bug types that might be present, and enjoying some lunch of his own. It was just some berries he got from the island's orchard, but that was all he needed. Unfortunately, the Team Skull grunt's good mood came to a rather abrupt end when the two hooved Pokemon ran past him and sent some sand flying in his direction. Almost immediately after this happened, Shinya lost his smile, glared at the two Pokemon, and kicked some sand right back at them.

"Hey, I'm walkin' here! Stay on your own side of the beach, chumps!" Since they were still young and impressionable, both Yanma and Joltik followed their trainer's example, and proceeded to glare and yell at Denki and Yasei as well. "Yan! Yan! Yanma!" Yanma rapidly flapped her wings as she yelled at them, while Joltik gave off a small electrical discharge as she did. "Tik! Tik! Joltik!" This did well to improve Shinya's mood a bit, as he was very proud of his two young Pokemon at that moment. The Bug type trainer also noticed that another wild Krabby had a similar reaction to his before scuttling towards the tree line, looking to be calling out to another wild Pokemon of some kind. However, as soon as Shinya saw what the River Crab Pokemon had pulled out of the sand, the shock and awe hit him like a hurricane to the face.

"No way! A Wimpod?! Here?! How?! Why?!" Shinya instantly recognized this Pokemon as Wimpod, the Turn Tail Pokemon, looking at the Bug/Water type with wide eyes and his mouth wide open. But to the Team Skull grunt, this wasn't just any Bug type Pokemon. With enough training, Wimpod would eventually evolve into Golisopod, the Hard Scale Pokemon, which just happened to be the partner Pokemon of Shinya's big bro who he admired so very much. The former leader of Team Skull, Guzma. Both Yanma and Joltik were very surprised and confused by their trainer's reaction, wondering why he was reacting the way that he was. But before either of them could question him, Shinya shook off the shock, and immediately took off running as fast as he could after the Wimpod. "Get back here, you! No way you're gettin' away from me!"

Unfortunately, Shinya may have already been too late, as the Wimpod ran straight for Zaiden, causing Shinya to come to a complete stop for a moment. The trainer from Alola then watched as Zaiden and his Pokemon approached the sandy hole that Wimpod had chosen to hide in and were attempting to win it over, which quickly caused him to glare at the other trainer and start running towards him. "Oh, heck no! That Wimpod is mine! Back off, chump!" However, in his eagerness to capture the Turn Tail Pokemon, Shinya forgot about the River Crab Pokemon, who suddenly ran out in front of him, blocking his path. Krabby looked up at the Bug type trainer, glared at him, then flexed its pincers, looking ready and willing to defend its friend no matter the cost. Naturally, Shinya wasn't pleased by this at all, gritting his teeth, glaring right back at the wild Krabby, and letting out an aggravated huff before speaking in a tone to match.

"Rgh! Get outta the way! I don't have time for this crap!" Shinya yelled at the wild Krabby, but the Water type refused to back down and stood its ground. Then, seeing that Zaiden had himself a Net Ball, the perfect type of Poke Ball to capture a Bug/Water type like Wimpod, Shinya's anger grew even more, as he quickly realized that he was already too late. "Okay, that does it! You wanna fight?! We'll make ya eat dirt, scrub! Yanma, it's time for your first battle! Let's destroy this Krabby! Give it a double dose of your Giga Drain!"

True, he could've easily captured the wild Krabby with another of his Net Balls, but Shinya was incredibly mad at that moment and wanted to destroy the River Crab Pokemon for getting in his way. Besides, he had already captured two other Krabby's not too long ago. Neither Yanma nor Joltik understood why their dear trainer was so angry, but, if possible, they wanted to do everything they could to bring his smile back. So, rather than ask questions, Yanma flapped her wings, flew right off of Shinya's head, and entered the battle, glaring down at her opponent. "Yanma! Yan! Yan!" Carrying out the orders she was given, the Clear Wing Pokemon filled her four wings with energy, then sent four energy streams down at Krabby. Those energy streams latched onto Krabby right away, and proceeded to suck its energy out, channeling that energy right into Yanma's body.

OOC: Running Shoes used.

The wimpod took a few steps back nervously when Zaiden kneeled, and the krabby clacked its pincers warningly. Zaiden pulled something strange out which he pointed at wimpod, who quickly dug itself into the sand, and sprayed Zaiden with what it dug up in its hurry to get out of sight. The sand above it was shaking lightly as the pokedex told what was going on and the krabby decided to sneak away now it was not the one in focus. It had tried to help the other one gain a bit more confidence but it was not going to risk itself in the face of this strange creature, not when it looked like it would be facing them on its own.

The sand stopped shaking and switched slightly and the wimpod might have emerged to face them due to Zaiden's and Uba's soft talk, but then angry shouting happened near by and it pressed itself down and would have been well hidden if the sand on it hadn't started to shake again.
It could not see the pokeball as it had submerged into the sand completely, but when more shouting came it frantically started to dig itself further down and the net ball slowly disappeared into the sand as it was removed below it. Suddenly the big lump in the sand collapsed as if the wimpod below it disappeared, and it the same time the throwing of sand stopped. A muffled ding was heard from where the net ball had disappeared. Seemed like Zaiden had a bit digging to do.

The krabby had back away and was just as surprised to see Shinya when it turned around to see who was shouting. It jump aside to avoid getting stepped on and waved its claws furiously.
"Krabby krabby krabby!" It shouted back and Shinya, telling him to watch where he was going and demanded an apology. It stared at him stubbornly as it certainly wasn't a scaredy-cat like its friend.
"Krabby, krab krab by!" It gasped angrily when Shinya ordered Yanma to attack, what kind of apology was that?!
Yanma's beams latched on and drained a lot of the red water type's energy, but she didn't really get anything out of the. The krabby slammed its claws into the beams and broke them, as it stumbled back, legs shaking below it. It leered at every one around it, feeling they were all ganging up on it.

ZAIDEN KABILA Aspiring Champion Bike Mode: -- | Time: --- The beige teenager hadn’t expected to be confronted by another trainer and had never properly prepared himself for confrontation before. As soon as Shinya marched over to Zaiden and seemed to scream at him to back away from the Wimpod, Zaiden jumped up to his feet. He backed away, unsure of what he should do in that precise moment. In his haste, the Net Ball fumbled out of his hands and fell on the sandy ground below. As the skittish Wimpod buried itself underneath the soft sands, the bluish ball with its black netting over the top of its dome would sink into the sands with it. “…” The young teen’s lips parted though no audible syllables would escape his lips. Uba stood defensively in front of her trainer as electric bolts seemed to zip around her thick, wooly fur. Although the heavy wrinkles that lined her face, around her mouth, cheeks, and under her eyes suggested she was an old Pokemon, the Mareep wouldn’t let anything stop her from proving that she still had the same fight as a young whippersnapper. “Young thing!” She snapped, rolling one eye slightly in Yanma’s direction while never taking her gaze off of Shinya. “Tell your trainer to back off if you don’t want him zapped!” She huffed, annoyed. Although originally ignoring their trainer, both Denki’s and Yasei’s head spun when they heard Uba’s voice calling like a banshee in the night. They immediately galloped over, kicking large bits of sand and rocky debris everywhere in their haste. They would immediately jump in front of Uba in Zaiden as they glared at Shinya through narrow eyes. “You better not mean our trainer any harm, extras!” The electric zebra snapped as electricity pulsed through his fur, collecting within his lightning-shaped mane. Yasei stood nervously, not really wanting to entertain the conflict, and snorted. “Are you mad because we’re faster? Race me, then!” Yasei snorted, before jutting back off in a headlong race that largely…only he seemed interested in. “I’ll handle the main attraction.” Denki snorted, pushing Uba away and towards the small crab. “You take care of the sideshow. I am the star, after all!” Uba’s fur zapped the Lightning Rod zebra, who simply sipped up the energy as though he were drinking water through the tip of his mane. “Ok…ok…don’t push or shove, youngin’!” Uba hissed, before turning around and walking over to the orange crab that had been facing off with the bright red dragonfly. She snorted, shaking her head heavily once Yanma finally focused her attention on the crustacean and nervously called to the child. “Young one. Do you think you can handle this beast on your own? I can zap it if you’d like and help, BUT, you and your trainer must not mean to cause harm to my trainer. Understood?” She stated, before unleashing a bolt of electricity that would hopefully have enough strength to keep the Krabby at bay for the moment. OOC: Uba uses Thunderwave on Krabby. Since this is now largely Shinya's fight, Uba offers support at a price for Yanma. ^^ Words: 503| Speech.

Naturally, Shinya wasn't at all intimidated by the wild Krabby's Leer attack or its claws, and Yanma and Joltik were still too young to fully understand what was going on. So, in response to the Krabby's demand for an apology, Shinya kicked some sand right into its face while it was leering at them, making sure to get the sand right in the Water type's eyes. This served to improve the Team Skull grunt's mood a little bit, but not very much, as he continued to glare down at the River Crab Pokemon. "Let's get a few things straight here, scrub. First of all, I don't apologize to anyone for any reason. Period. And second of all, anyone who gets in my way gets destroyed. Kinda like how you got in my way and stopped me from catching that Wimpod."

While Krabby was doing its best to clean the sand out of its eyes, Shinya and his Pokemon turned towards Zaiden and his Pokemon, listening to what the Wool Pokemon had to say and seeing that they all didn't look very pleased with Shinya's behavior. Not that Shinya cared, of course. In fact, in response to Uba's words, the Bug type trainer started to snicker a bit, unable to hold it in, despite his enraged state. "That's real cute. Hidin' behind your Pokemon like that, ya big wuss. Do they always speak for ya like this? Maybe they should be the ones trainin' you. I feel sorry for that Wimpod. The Turn Tail Pokemon bein' raised by a turn tail trainer. I might find that poetic if that was the kinda person I am. But it's not."

The Team Skull grunt then demonstrated that to Zaiden and his Pokemon, gathering some saliva in his mouth before spitting it down at the ground right in front of the other trainer. After that, Shinya snickered a bit more, causing both Yanma and Joltik to start laughing too, even though they still didn't understand what was going on. "Yan! Yan! Yanma!" Yanma followed her trainer's example and gave Uba a raspberry, sticking her tongue out at the Electric type and making a sputtering noise with it. Joltik did her best to do the same, but without any mouth of her own to speak of, she was having a bit of trouble. After that, Shinya calmed down and listened to Uba's request, losing his smirk as he responded to it, since Yanma was still too young to do it herself. "Yeah, yeah. Whatever, puffball. I don't pick fights I know I can't win anyway."

As much as Shinya hated to admit, he knew very well that if he were to have a battle with Zaiden, he'd probably lose. Zaiden's Pokemon were all at higher levels than his own, and he already had one badge, while Shinya himself currently had none. So, rather than start something he wouldn't be able to finish, he turned his attention back towards the wild Krabby, and proceeded to take out the rest of his anger on it. "This one, on the other hand, is easy pickin's. Yanma, use Giga Drain again! Destroy this Krabby, then let's move on already!" Upon hearing her trainer's voice, Yanma fluttered into action, repeating her actions from the previous round. "Yan! Yan! Yan...ma!" Her wings gave off a green glow, then four streams of energy flowed down from them, heading straight for Krabby.

OOC: Sorry about all that, Tarlar. I kinda got caught up in the moment last time.

[Tarlar]

the krabby scuttled back when Shinya kicked sand at it, raising its claws for protection. It quickly cleaned its eyes with a gentle brush of its claws and stared speechlessly at Shinya. It blinked and took a few steps back when Shinya spoke directly to it and made his point of view clear.
"Krab krabby," it tried to defend itself rather weakly, saying that it hadn't tried to stand in the way and that the other trainer had already done that before the crab encountered Shinya.
"Krabby?" It nervously tried to point out that it was Zaiden who had really got in the way, so why was Shinya not destroying him instead? The krabby began to sneak off sideways, hoping to get away without any further incidents, Yanma had hit hard the first time she had acted.

It froze as Uba stepped up in front of it, "what?! Why? What about if I can handle being alone against all of your?! What have I done!" It screamed terrified and crabbed over the sand sideways, to get a way as fast as possible. As it reached the water with the waves gently lapping the shore, Uba's electric wave reached it and its legs buckled up under it, making it a sitting duck for when Yanma zoomed over and drained the rest of the little energy it had left.
Left alone the Krabby would slowly be pulled to sea by the waves.
