The Rocket Grunt scrunched up his nose and narrowed his eyes in a deep scowl at Nate. Who was this kid thinking he was calling him a grandpa?! The Rocket Grunt specifically chose a life of crime so that he never had to settle down and take care of some whiny, spoiled little brats, anyways! And he couldn’t have looked older than a guy who had kids that were…what…twelve? Fourteen? Pft! “Show’s what you know!” The grunt spat out in disgust and shook his head. “I’m not even a father. Not that I’d ever want to be. You brats are all the same!” The grunt snapped. As a gentle breeze softly rustled through the trees and shook a few leaves free from their branches to cascade slowly down to the forested floor below, the Rocket Grunt turned to his flighty bat. “Ok, Ferngully. Let’s show this punk a lesson, shall we? Use your Absorb and try your best to avoid that little seedling’s attack!” The bat clicked loudly as it swooped up high into the air. Suntaro focused, creating a bright green aura around himself that he aimed into a single beam of energy. Though, as the blue bat swooped down on his opponent repeatedly, Suntaro’s head started to spin as he tried to keep up. He jumped and lunged at the bat, trying to catch it and keep it still. Ferngully laughed, shaking his head, as he kept dodging in different directions. “What’s the matter, seedling?! Can’t keep up?!” “Hey, kid, what do you think you know about my job?!” The grunt snapped, though he had to admit that Nate’s plan wasn’t so half-baked. He wouldn’t take notes on it, though he wanted to, to ensure that Nate didn’t get the wrong idea, though. Suntaro came crashing into a large rock as he tried to chase after his opponent, hitting himself in his own confusion against the rock. “I’m not worried about no stinkin’ cop kid. Send all the cops you want! They’ll never catch me once I take that egg from you!” The grunt swore as his Zubat fluttered down and latched onto Suntaro’s back to absorb some health from his opponent. “You keep insisting that Suntaro is good enough on his own, but he’s lookin’ pretty beat up right now.” The Grunt commented, raising an eyebrow.

Nate's smirk turned into a grin when he noticed the reaction from the grunt from him calling the grunt a grandpa. It was immature to do but he needed to rustle the grunts feathers to try to get him to make some mistakes in order to give Suntaro some sort of advantage since he was being no help to his grass type. "Did I hit a nerve there?" He playfully pouted as he didn't really care either way since he was protecting the egg and not making friends with the grunt. "What was I even thinking. I doubt even the last female alive would go for someone like you as you have nothing going for yourself." Nate rolled his eyes not caring about the grunt snapping at him.
He watched carefully as he took note of what moves the grunt had ordered his Zubat to use so far and what moved he had chosen to be used next. "Why would you use a move that wouldn't be very effective against a grass type? You may as well be attacking him with a Bubble or a Water Gun as it would have the same effect." Suntaro looked on concerned as none of his attacks had successfully landed on his opponent so far. He flnched slightly as he felt his energy being drained from him slightly but there didn't appear to be any effect on the Zubat as it looked the same as before. 'Well you are the one giving orders to your Zubat while Nate is confident that Suntaro can defeat your Fugly on his own.' Luck called out purposely getting the Zubat's name wrong.
"I think I know the same about your job as I know about what I used to do. What is more than you realized." Nate let out a sigh as Suntaro collided with a large rock instead of using any type of move. "That is not good as Suntaro had hit himself in his confusion." Nate thought as he sighed slightly annoyed. "But you are not having the egg so I don't know why you keep on saying that you are going to take away the egg. It has taken you two of your Pokemon to almost defeat one of mine, and even then that is because you managed to use a Quick Attack before Suntaro defeated your Rattata. Then confused Suntaro with your disgusting Zubat. The police will catch up to you eventually. It is only a matter of time" Nate pulled out a potion from his bag but he couldn't move his feet towards the battlefield. Levi held out his hand and levitated the potion out of Nate's hand. He levitated the potion over to Suntaro and sprayed it to heal the grass type. 'Don't worry. I will help you with your fear.' Levi thought to Nate. Suntaro bathed in the spray from the potion as he felt his energy return to him. "What was that about Suntaro being pretty beat up right now?" Nate raised an eyebrow slightly glad that Levi had helped him out. Suntaro shoots several seeds from his mouth into the ground by the Zubat. The seeds immediately grow into vines that latch onto the Zubat and attempts to drain it of its energy.
OOC Nate's Levi used a potion on Suntaro Suntaro used Leech Seed
The RNG is not on my side, hopefully it will change Also on the battle preview thing it says that Zubat has 72% [18/18]

The Rocket Grunt narrowed his eyes suspiciously on the teenager. Nate’s attitude drove the nail deeper into the grunt’s veins and only solidified the fact that he didn’t want his own family. “Oh, because you’re going to grow up into such a babe magnet, huh?” He retorted and spat off the top of his tongue. He turned away from Nate and bit down on his lower lips with his fists quietly balled up at his sides. The Rocket Grunt had to remind himself that this young man was just a kid and that it was in the kid’s nature to act like this. “No one likes a smart aleck know-it-all, either.” He huffed, turning his nose up. “Ferngully, don’t waste any time with this fool!” The Grunt snapped at his flighty bat with an angry tone. “Use another Supersonic to ensure that the little Seedling keeps hitting itself, then follow up with your Absorb!” Though, when Nate pointed out that Ferngully’s attack wasn’t the best use against Suntaro, the Grunt only furrowed his eyebrows further as the anger seeped into his veins. He needed to collect that egg for his higher ups and he wanted this to be the easiest job he’d taken, but Nate was making this difficult for him. “Show’s what you know, punk. The Absorb also heals my little Ferngully. I just need your Pokemon to stay confused long enough to work its magic.” The Rocket Grunt snapped with a big smile plastered across his whole face. Ferngully cried out loudly and swooped high into the air. After Levi levitated the potion over and sprayed Suntaro down, the bat would begin screeching at the top of his lungs with a powerful supersonic wave. The waves shot through the air and bounced around, though a powerful gust of wind seemed to knock them off course. As they hit the Rock Grunt in his ears, the older gentleman spun around and slapped himself with his hands. “Huh…what?!” Then growled as he shook the effects off. “Not me, Ferngully, them. You gotta hit them!” He snapped and stomped his foot into the ground. As Suntaro’s seeds shot forth and landed on the bat to wrap their thick vines all around Ferngully’s body, the back would land on the Seedling and absorb more health from his opponent. Wild Encounter Weather: Humid [Clear] [attr="class","qkt-bkgd"] [attr="class","qkt-wild-pkmn"] Ferngully ♂ LV 4 HP 89% [16/18]

Nate couldn't help but to smirk since his choice of words appeared to be affecting the grunt the way he needed it to. Hopefully the battle wouldn't last to much longer so that he could go to Professor Elm's lab to return the egg. "At the moment I have no interest in finding someone to go out with. I am still to young to even think about that." Nate shrugged without a care in the world. "But if I was going to choose someone to date then I would choose someone then I would choose a female who has long and wavy blond hair, blue eyes and a beauty mark located under the right side of her mouth with her most distinctive trait being her chest area." He looked down at his Pokemon. "But for now I will just focus on training up my team." Nate looked back at the grunt. "But you are acting like a smart aleck who thinks that I will hand the egg over to you just because you tell me to."
"You are wasting plenty of time on just a single Pokemon. Maybe it would be better if the Zubat had a better trainer." He did feel sorry for the poison type since the grunt was taking his anger out on it. "Is that all your tactic is for battles? Just confuse them then slowly chip away at their health with Absorb to heal up your Pokemon slightly?" He sighed since it was a annoying strategy to have to deal with. "Why can't I have a Pokemon with Sound Proof so that Supersonic doesn't effect my Pokemon." Nate gently shook his head at what the grunt had to say about Absorb. "I know that but since Suntaro is a grass type Pokemon, Absorb isn't very effective against it. It would be like me using Mega Drain against a Pidgey because it would heal Suntaro up slightly." He placed his hands behind his head. "It is a waste of time since it would only take two or three attacks to successfully collide to defeat your Pokemon."
Suntaro flinched over the loud cry emitted from Ferngully. He was glad over Levi helping him out with healing him up via a Potion since it means that he would be able to continue the battle for longer. Suntaro let out a breath he was holding in when he felt a gust of wind that knocked Ferngully off course causing it to miss the confusing ray released against him. Nate could help but to giggle slightly when the grunt slapped himself in confusion. "It is not very good when you hit yourself is it." He raised an eyebrow slightly. Nate smiled when the Leech Seed successfully attached to collided with Ferngully. "At least now it will be a stall fest with the two Pokemon slowly healing each turn. Suntaro bounced forward and attempted to slam his body up at Ferngully hoping to damage it slightly.

The Rocket Grunt smiled when he noticed that Nate seemed to have a head on his shoulders, at least as far as relationships went. He had sworn them off long ago himself, but he never figured that out in his youth. It took several years on a diet of steady rejection and questionable life choices to lead him to that outcome – and then to eventually lead him to joining Team Rocket. “I honestly think you would have made a wonderful Rocket member.” The Rocket Grunt commented as his eyes shifted around to look for a steady exit. “But its too bad I’m going to beat you instead, and take that egg for myself.”Suntaro hopped after the bat, who only fluttered up high into the air to escape the small seedling. The Grunt smirked as he watched the two battling it out amongst each other. “That’s it, Ferngully!” The grunt clapped his hands and shouted in jubilation. “Just stay up high where the seedling can’t reach you and then use Absorb to try and keep your health up!” The bat chirped loudly as he nodded his head. While he flitted around and teased Suntaro from up high in the sky, the small seedling simply watched his opponent carefully and followed it across the terrain from the ground. When Zubat fluttered low to try and latch onto the Seedling, Suntaro would bounce up high enough to ram his head into the blue bat’s chest. “You know…” The Rocket Grunt frowned as Nate described his perfect woman and shook his head. “I spoke too soon. You’re just a kid, with grandiose ideas of picking ‘em off a pinwheel. See, I’m an adult and have taste. If I ever found a gal, it’d hafta be a Rocket Grunt like myself.” He smirked proudly. The Zubat managed to land on the yellow seedling’s back and knock Suntaro down temporarily as it drained Suntaro’s health from him. “And you just don’t understand a sound strategy!” He roared, disagreeing with Nate’s analysis that his strategy was a bunch of chump change. Though, as the Leech seed drained the last of his Pokemon’s health, the grunt would recall his Pokemon before rushing off down the route. “You win this time, twerp!” His voice bellowed before his disappeared off past the horizon line. Now, Nate just had to finish carrying the egg to Professor Elm with the Rocket Grunt successfully knocked out of the way.

Nate was at a age where all he really cared about was training his Pokemon. He didn't really care int the slightest what the females looked like and found most of them simply annoying. Nate raised an eyebrow slightly when he heard what the grunt had to say about him joining Team Rocket. "It is bad enough with my past. So I do not need to be associated with something like Team Rocket. Maybe in a different life I could have become a Rocket member or maybe even a completely different group entirely." Nate kept his eyes either on the Grunt with him watching the Grunt's Pokemon from the side of his eyes or vise versa since he didn't want to be surprised, unless there were hidden people around him. He didn't want to take a risk to look around better at his surroundings. "I will believe that when I see it."
Nate wished that Levi was stronger and knew a psychic type move like Confusionn or something that could help in the battle since it was unfair for Suntaro to be trapped on the ground while the opponent was a flying type. Then there was also the fact that all of the moves that his grass type Pokemon had used against the Zubat were all grass type moves so they were not going to be inflicting much damage and would just drag on the battle what could be bad the longer the battle drags on.
"I know that I know a lot." Nate looked on confused when the grunt complained about what he would go for if he was going to choose a female to date. "Why would I choose one off a pinwheel? I'm still young so I don't really need to rush into anything. If you are an adult as you state then why are you picking on a child and threatening to steal from a child?" He cocked his head to one side. "Or are you picking on children and threatening to steal from children because not even a female grunt would go for you and you are to ashamed to admit that?" Nate gently shook his head. "It is not a sound strategy. It is all based on luck." He couldn't help but to smirk slightly as Suntaro finally managed to defeat the Zubat. Nate pulled out a poke ball as he watched the grunt disappeared away from him. "Suntaro return." Suntaro disappeared into the pokeball. Nate walked back towards New Bark Town wanting to hand the egg over to Professor Elm. "Levi keep a eye out around us." He mumbled, he noticed Levi had nodded out of the corner of his eyes. Soon enough Nate, Levi and Luck returned to New Bark Town and approached the Pokemon lab. "Professor Elm, are you home?" Nate called out. He pulled out the egg and held it gently in his hands as he was interested to learn what was inside of it. He entered the lab slowly. "I have a Pokemon egg from Mr. Pokemon who asked me to give this to you, if you are here." Nate called out.

The Grunt was long gone and gave no response to Nate's last questions, he proved to be gone for real as no one interfered with the rest of the travel back to New Bark Town and Elm's lab. The door was open, and so was all the doors which was no surprise as it was really hot around here today, and the small gardens was full of people relaxing and sunbathing. And assistant came to the door when Nate called out, he had a wet cloth wound around his head and his labcoat was open and revealed he was in a bathing suit beneat. "Yes?" He asked while he was fanning himself, and then gestured for Nate to follow him as he lead him into a little stuffy office from where he practically fled from afterwards. Elm was sitting bend over a strange machine and didn't seem to notice the sweat dripping of him, several empty water bottles laid around. Elm looked up when he heard Nate and he smiled. "Hi!" He greeted chipper and then frowened, "you have been here before, haven't you? Oh! You are helping me with the pokedex, aren't you?" He exclaimed as he recognized Nate, "are you here to show me your progress?"He'd listen curiously when Nate would explain the reason for why he was here and he abandoned the machine right away and walked over to Nate to take a look at the egg. "I see, Mr. Pokemon is an old friend of mine, and he usually knows a lot about pokemon and pokemon eggs, so if he doesn't know what this one is, it must be from far away," he said as he carefully looked the egg over, and then found a thick book from where he began to compare the egg to the pictures of pokemon eggs in the book. "It's very light, so I'll guess its a flying type," he said thoughtfully, "Ah! Here it is! It is a Pikipek!" The declared triumphally and then looked surprised at it, "I wonder how it has gotten over here from Alola.""Well!" Elm said and he closed the book and looked at Nate with a smile, "Congratulation on your new egg, that's the least I can do now you have taken so good care of it until now."The egg contains the pokemon Pikipek with the egg move Boomburst! Pikipek egg has been added to the box.[img src="https://pokefarm.wiki/images/6/68/Pikipek_Egg.png"] [b]Pikipek Egg[/b] Inherited Move: Boomburst[sup]EM/MT[/sup] Inherited Ball: Pokeball Status: 0/2000 words Egg content: 82Z3EMll1-62Egg move: 1-51-62·1-5

Nate was glad that the grunt was long gone and that there was no more surprises in store on his way back to the lab. The last thing he wanted to have to deal with was to have to go through another battle. He was a bit suspicious over the doors all being open but it was a lovely day, so that could explain it, but then again the Pokemon could escape if the doors were left open and unattended.
Nate cocked his head to one side when a assistant appeared at the door with just a bathing suit beneath the lab coat. "Never seen the before." He thought. He straightened his head when the assistant soke to him before leading him into a little office. He remained standing in the office not really wanting to take a seat since all he wanted to do was hand the egg over to the professor and then leave to continue his journey since there was still plenty for him to do before he is ready to think about battling Falkner. His thoughts were soon broken when he heard a familiar voice "Hey." Nate raiised an eyebrow slightly. "Yeah I cam here before to get my Squirtle, Blasty from you. I am also helping you with the pokedex what is just annoying." He let out slight sigh of frustration. "I am here to show you this stupid egg."
"I sort of guess that he was an old friend since I doubt anyone would ask a stranger to deliver a Pokemon egg to someone who hadn't been a friend for a long time. I would guess it is from far away as a Team Rocket Grunt was very interested in it, but I have no idea what it could contain inside." He listened carefully when the professor started to state facts about the egg and soon came out with a Pokemon that was from a different region. "I'll have to ask Lei about that if I ever see her again." Nate said simply since he knew that she was from the Alola region herself so she may know the answer to the question. "I guess I could look after the egg I suppose." He looked at the egg. "Especially if it means that I will keep it out of Team Rocket's hands." Nate walked off ready to continue his journey.
