After returning the Horsea to Timmy, Ethan returned to his lodging in Pokemon Center again. He needed a good rest, and the battle with Miranda made him realized that he would need more training for his Pokemon. He did not realize that there were opponents who would punched harder than his Pokemon. Just as his mind was racing with thoughts on which Pokemon to train them better and how he would train them, he finally had to pause himself and shower to clear his thought off, and the smell of the alley stank. Then, he loaded up his electronic and made some beats again to calm himself down. He got some inspiration from the sound of the Persian battling where the trash bins were. That was some interesting rattling and plastic bags destroying sounds.

After a while, he got hungry and he realized it was already evening. He got himself some food, and then soon, it was time for sleep. He went out to the business district where many businesses were either closed or closing for the night. Some restaurants and bars might still be opened a little longer, but he decided to walk away from the crowded area, but stayed within where the bright street lights were, for safety and visibility. He could hear some sound of Pokemon moving about, and he kept one hand on his pocket to grab a Pokeball just in case.

As many of the shops slowly closed for the night, their staff members would slowly break things down to prepare to go home. Within the restaurants many of the wait staff cleaned off the tables and wiped down the chairs for the last time. Some stacked the chaired up on the tables flipped over, so that it would be easy for them to sweep and mop underneath the table. Once cleaned up and left to look pristine for the coming morning and eventual crowds that would form, the staff members would leave their stores and lock them up after turning all the lights. Many of them high-fived each other for the hard work they had endured together, and some even conversed about the nearby late night ‘older crowd’ shops where they could eventually meet by up for some fun drinks.

Two wait staff stood off to the side as they stared down the dark alleyway that jutted between two buildings. Something stirred with a long, sorrowful meow. A small greyish-blue cat crawled out from behind a dumpster where its ribs seem to gently poke at the sides of its chest. The two individuals turned to each other in hushed whispers, before one would unlock their store and dart back in to retrieve some food from behind their ‘staff only’ doors. The young lady rushed back out, hurriedly locking the doors behind her, to toss bits of torn up cooked chicken nuggets on the ground for the small feline. The wild cat jumped as its lips drooled, and immediately it began to scarf up the food with a loud, delighted meow!

After a while, the two would eventually climb in their separate cars and drive away. The cat sniffed the ground after it finished demolishing the food the two had given it. It mewed loudly as it cried. Its stomach rumbled and tore at it from the inside, as though it might rip the cat’s insides into a million pieces as it demanded the wild Glameow find more food. As soon as it spotted Ethan, its mind began to work with a deviously perfect plan. It raced over to Ethan on the tips of its toes, only slowing down when it got close to the young lad. Large, puppy-dog eyes stared up sadly at Ethan as it begged him for food, pressing its body against the cold concrete ground below. “Mmeeooowww!” It begged, starving for more food. It would then try to rub the side of its body against Ethans legs, as it begged him for any scraps he may have. The Glameow would also fight any of Ethan’s Pokemon on sight should they try to interfere or get in its way.

Wild Glameow wants love!

Level 17. What will Ethan do?

Ethan watched from afar as one of the store was closing, they weren't any particularly unusual. Although, one of the store looked like they were trying to close up the shop as fast as possible. Then he heard a meow or two, and some more meowing coming down from an alley. Soon enough, the cat saw Ethan! He smiled and then cracked up ironically, as he did not have any food on him, or any food he wanted to part with.

"Awwm a Glameow! But I don't have any food on me!" He stated loudly, as if the cat would understood human language. He hurriedly grabbed a Pokeball from his pocket, and tossed out one to intercept the Glameow, as it looked like it wanted to get close.

"Hey there! Stop!" He shouted to the cat, who ignored him and kept coming forward. "Looks like you wanted a fight then? Buzz-Step, use Fury Cutter!" Out from the sphere was a Ninjask.

The shy Ninjask buzzed around Ethan for a bit, until Ethan pointed out a Glameow was walking toward them. Then, the bug flew forward with his claws ready for slicing a a cat.

OOC:
Fury Cutter x2

The cat certainly didn't want to battle, it wanted Ethan to like it, to care for it, to feed it! It lived a tough life and it was not liking it one bit, if some humans meant food then all of them did, right? His initial reaction to it only fueled its desire and belief that this would work, that he would fish some food up from where ever humans hid those things and then he'd feed it until it was full!
"Mreow?" It mewed softly in its confusion when he suddenly shouted at it, but then it playfully bounded over to him to rub itself against his legs, purring loudly.
It hissed once when Buzz-Step seemed to be ready to fight, telling him he back off and that it wouldn't do anything to him if he stayed away. Its melly growled loudly and it whimpered a bit before it strengthened its attempts to woo Ethan and get him to like it and feed it.

Buzz-Step was not having any of it and he sped over and slammed the cat away from Ethan. The glameow wailed as it rolled over the ground but it was quickly back up on its paws, it hissed frustrated and slashed its claws at the ninjask when he came close.
"I just want to eat! Stupid thing! Get away from me!" It wailed but Buzz-Step but into it again and sent it tumbling away in its retreat down the alley. Now it was not only hungry, it had some fresh wounds to take care of as well, but it had probably learned a lesson.

Buzz-Step won quickly and grows +2 to [lv 23]!
He can learn...Absorb...?? if he forgets another move.
He also gets +1 happiness (+3)! Probably because he can learn to suck the energy out of his opponents..?


Queen got a level from watching and is now [Lv 19]!

Unfortunately for the Glameow, Ethan already had a street cart and the position of street-raised, struggling cat had been taken by Felime. Buzz-Step was hasty in his speed to take the attention of the street cat off Ethan. He raised his claws and made a quick work to scare off the Glameow. The battered and hangry Glameow ran away to tend to its wounds and feelings.

He thanked his Pokemon, and returned the bug type. He went to a bar for a quick drink before leaving. He felt that he had been in Goldenrod City for quite a while, and that it was probably time to leave. One last drink in this city for the soul! After finishing that drink, he made his way back to the Pokemon Center and crashed into his bed. He would just have to pack tomorrow and leave in the morning.
