16. Soul Revival (Legendary Trio) [F]

[Tiki]

Soft Sand back on Baltoy

Swap Shedinja for Snorunt, black glasses on snorunt
dang, wanted to abbreviate Legendary Trio to LT so bad

After his successful gym battle with Morty, Ethan headed back to Pokemon Center to rest up his Pokemon. He thanked his Shedinja, Persian, and Raticate for their fantastic help against the ghost type trainer. Then, he swapped out his party a bit and made some rearrangements. While he liked the suggestion to head toward Olivine to explore a more vibrant, busy, and urban city, he wanted to do a bit of sight-seeing before traveling again.

Exiting the Pokemon Center, he beelined toward the Burnt Tower, where a once bold and proud traditional architecture stood, and was now a rubble of human's existence. All it took was one unfortunate thunder strike to end the tower's career. He entered the building as the door creaked opened. After years of weathering, there wasn't much of a burnt scent, but the Burnt Tower looked sad. He began walking slowly to navigate through the rubbles, as he explored this abandoned building that was also conveniently not closed off. He had no expectation what would happen, or if it even was safe for him to head inside alone.

[Avalon]

Many people wandered to the Burned Tower for various reasons. Some came in search of a quiet place to train, or to observe the building for its historical significance. But for most, it was a place of trying to chase one's dreams. There were many old tales of the Legendary Pokemon that lived within the Burned Tower once upon a time; some tales said they still roamed in the tower, hidden from people, while others claimed that the Legendary creatures had long since scattered and found homes elsewhere throughout the world.

But for many such as Eusine this was enough information to bring them here in search of the legends. Eusine had been here many times, but this time he was confident that he had been able to finally track down the Legendary Beasts. He had no illusions of being able to catch them like so many others did; no, he knew he was not yet strong enough to be the Trainer of legend. He was happy enough to just observe them for now. But one day he would become that Trainer, he was sure of it.

As Eusine debated whether to continue down the decrepit stairwells and ladders that would lead to the lower floors of the crumbling tower, his thoughts were interrupted by the presence of a certain deejay looking for a tourist trap. Eusine turned, facing Ethan and appraising him slightly. He looked a little unassuming, but there was a certain air to the boy. Yes, he would do nicely.

"Hello, my friend! Not seen you around before, so you must be new in town. Another Trainer here chasing legends, perhaps?" Eusine asked, raising an eyebrow as he began to close the distance between them. He made a show of dramatically pushing his cape back, giving a glimpse at the pristine suit worn beneath it. "You see, I'm a chaser of legends, and I think I may have tracked down some old Legendary Beasts to this very tower! I'm not much of a battler, though, so all I can do is look on from afar. If you're interested in learning more about Johto's history or our legends, could I trouble you to climb down the tower and see if you can confirm whether I'm right or not? You'd get to see the legends for yourself, and I'd get to see them in their natural habitat. It'd be a win-win for both of us, don't you think?" he asked, looking at Ethan expectantly.

Eusine has requested for you to search for the Legendary Pokemon in Burned Tower!
Will Ethan accept this Quest?

[Tiki]

"Hey," Ethan greeted, giving a hand as if ready to shake. He thought the man dressed a little strange with his outfit, but he wasn't going to comment on that for now. "Yup, I just arrived like a few days ago. In fact, I just finished my battle with Morty." He grinned with a bright smile. If Eusine would have shake his hand, he would give a firm handshake, but if not, his hand would gravitate toward a debris and wipe a finger on it to inspect how dusty it looked like.

"So you're just chasing them to look at them?" He asked, a little puzzled. This cape man did not have a recording equipment or something to write or draw. He was wondering if he would remember such a sight seeing, because he learned from his roommate Alex about how fickle human memory could be. An unlucky hit in the head, and it could be gone! "You're not gonna at least journal an entry or take a picture from afar then?" He chimed curiously.

"Yeah, I can go down, but I am not sure about this natural habitat. It's a habitat, but it just feels... unnatural?" He replied, but he could also observed some wild Pokemon hiding. "Maybe it just took up this place to hide and to rest?"

[Caramell 🍬]

Eusine listened to Ethan with a smile. He wasn’t surprised in the least that Ethan didn’t find the environment they were in a ‘natural’ home for the legendary creatures that must await them further inside of the tower. Given its charred remains, with many planks of wood burned apart instead of connecting each other together, and holes littering the floor if you took the wrong step, Eusine could understand the hesitancy to think that anything lived here. “It is their first home! You see, these legends were once three trapped Pokemon that perished when the tower was lit ablaze many years ago. But Ho-Oh gave them new life in their legendary forms. It is my hope to witness these legends for myself!”

The trip down the rafters couldn’t have been the safest way to travel down, even if it might have been the only way down. The stairs would squeak, with some missing steps along the way. In areas where the wood wasn’t nailed properly to the wall to give the support you needed, the ladder would even buckle and sway a bit if you moved too fast down their long, winding frames. However, something could be heard the further Ethan traveled down into the depths of the tower, past all common sense for safety and self-preservation. Whether that was the sounds of wild legendary Pokemon or not, though, that was the mystery.

Two firebreathers would spout large flames from their mouths and dance around in an elaborate display. The younger one was constantly getting elbowed by his brother, who shouted at him to correct some of his moves whilst they performed in silence. They would put on quite the spectacle one day! Once they had their captive victims, whom were rumored to nest in these singed tower, they would have crowds flocking them for miles around! But as soon as they noticed Ethan – whether by Ethan calling out and interrupting them or by him accidentally knocking into one whilst climbing down - they would gasp and immediately walk over to him while gesturing all around.

“What are you doing down here?! It’s not safe! Can’t you see how dangerous it is with all these missing floorboards and the ceiling collapsing above you?!” Ned screeched loudly. “You should know better than to come wandering down here! Is your head full of rocks or something?! Go on and go home while you still can!” Richard huffed loudly. If Ethan refused, they would try to help push him back up the stairwell before making him an offer to battle for his right to stay. “Well…maybe if you can prove yourself…” Ned hummed while Richard laughed. “Tell ya what…if you can beat either me or my brother in battle…then we’ll believe you can handle yourself down here. Deal?” He laughed.

Will Ethan Battle Ned or Richard?
OR
Or will he give up and go home, like he was offered to do?

[Tiki]

Ethan heard Eusine's response to his question, but he still wasn't convinced. "Sure, sure, but it's still a legend. A legendary.. or a few legendary Pokemon hundred years ago would want to live inside a human tower?" He wasn't a smarty pants in his head, but he knew this didn't make sense, he would like Johtoan explain this.

As he made his way downstairs, he thought he was in a horror movie if it wasn't bright outside with the gentle wind of spring. The floor would squeak and the ladder felt unsafe. If he had an inspector for his small concert to come look at these, it would be an occupation and health violation. As if that wasn't enough, when he made his way down, he saw two very strange men dressed like mascots of Kanto Fried Combusken breathing fires from their mouth.

"I should ask you the same question! This place is failing safety inspection, and you're out here doing fire tricks?" Ethan hollered back at one of these clowns. He then paused and thought for a quick second before replying to the other one, "My head is mostly full of electronics." He wasn't sure what they meant by home, because he came from Hoenn and he wasn't going to travel all the way back for no reason, so he opted for the neutral answer. "Um, I just came from the Pokemon Center, if that's what you're asking."

When proposed with a battle, he turned toward Richard and grabbed a Pokeball ready. "Fine, we'll have a battle. Disco, use Earth power!" His floating doll Pokemon appeared, spinning quickly on the ground to scan the area. Then, it fixed its gaze at the the opponent's Pokemon, and summoned some Earth Power to the already damaged and ruined tower. Although Ethan wasn't thinking about the additional damage to the building right now.

OOC:
Earth Power x2

[Avalon]

The crumbling tower creaked and groaned under the weight of its inhabitants and their actions. This place was not meant to be a battlefield, that much was obvious to anyone with even an iota of brainpower. The weight of this city's past sins, their past losses, and their lost history weighed down around Ethan and the firebreathers. If it weren't for the already hostile initial interaction between Ethan and the brothers, then it would no doubt make the air tense enough to cut with a knife.

"As if there's any other good practicin' spots around here. We live in the middle of a grove, at least we picked a place that nobody else really goes to," Richard scoffed, folding his arms. He would next send out a Poke Ball, releasing a Charmeleon into the world. The diminutive dragon let out a roar, spitting out a small spit of flame from its mouth in an imitation of what its Trainer had just done moments prior. "'sides, we already got told we couldn't go back to the Dance Theater. Not after my bro here singed off the Theater Owner's toupee in front of that Kimono Girl from Kalos he was wanting to impress!" Ned sighed, glaring slightly at his brother and the Charmeleon. After a moment, a look of realization appeared across his face, as if realizing the bit of gossip he had let slip to this random outsider. "Uh, pretend you didn't hear that, please."

The battle, meanwhile, raged on. Charmeleon launched itself forward, claws glowing blue and extending as it raked these claws against the Baltoy's body. The blow would be enough to send the top spinning, literally, but before long loose floorboards and rocks from the basement began to swirl around the room, battering the Charmeleon viciously. It got off another stray swipe of its claws at the ancient doll Pokemon, but as soon as it landed the blow, a stray rock struck it in the back. The wind was knocked from Charmeleon's lungs, and it collapsed. Richard's mouth was agape, but Ned could only sigh and begin packing up their belongings and props into a bag.

"You really are the real deal, huh. Deal's a deal though, we'll go find somewhere else to practice and you can go about your business. Maybe Mt. Mortar would be better for our dress rehearsal," Ned said wistfully, lugging the bag of props and supplies over his shoulder as he began to make for the stairwell that would lead him back up to the surface. Richard reluctantly returned his Charmeleon into its ball, shoulders slumping. "Dang it man, second time today some kid came by and trounced us. At least this guy seemed nicer than that red-headed jerk. Be careful if you run into him, little buddy. He's a little further down, was ranting and raving about wanting to capture the beasts of legend and turn them into tools. Kid had a real crazy look in his eyes, too."

With that, the firebreathers would allow Ethan to pass and would opt to leave. Ned offered Ethan a respectful nod, while Richard made sure to give what was meant to be a comforting pat on the shoulder to the deejay (or at least attempting it, not minding if the young man refused the sudden personal interaction). With the two separating, Ethan would be able to continue down to the next level of the Burned Tower, where a "red-headed jerk" would await him.

last time talking to silver
Using 1 Soda Pop on Baltoy
no self destruct. i'll be losing EXP lol

Ethan listened to their replies, and thought for a bit while he was trying to look for at the map brochure he had. "You sure there's no other abandoned buildings here? Maybe you can go to the nearby routes then?" He wasn't sure what to expect from the showmen. He understand the idea of practicing but also keeping privacy, to remain a surprise, but using this decaying tower just seemed to be dangerous.

He had a Charmeleon of his own, so he knew how powerful the other's Charmeleon would be. The fire type launched toward the ground type and slashed it with a draconic spirit. The hit knocked the top Pokemon spinning, but it was built and used to this. Using the momentum of the spin, the Baltoy channeled the power to control the earth underneath them, and stirred up the floor boards and tiles, farther creating a ruckus that damaged the depilated building. Ethan wasn't worry about the damage, because no one could tell, right?

After admitting their defeat, the men took their belongings and headed for the exit. When they mentioned a red haired boy though, he raised an eyebrow or two, as that sounded familiar. Before he could jog his memory about this particular boy, he felt his shoulder tapped by Richard. Before he could verbally respond, they disappeared from view. "Well, then." he talked to himself.

He grabbed a Soda Pop and cranked it open, and gave it to the ancient doll Pokemon to somehow absorb the liquid and refresh itself. Nobody saw how the Baltoy chugged it, but in a blink, it was gone. The young man thanked his Pokemon's help, and then head downstairs, where he saw Silver and started off with a greeting. "Hello, Hello. Long time no see!"

[Caramell 🍬]

Silver stood in the center of the room at the bottom of the stairs staring down at his starter Pokemon in pure disgust and annoyance. He snapped his fingers, pointing towards the ground that sat adjacent to a large hole blocking their pathway. The medium sized crocodile looking much larger and more impressive than the first time Ethan’s and Silver’s pathways crossed, stood there with wide eyes firmly shaking its head ‘no’. “What do you mean, ‘no’?! Croconaw, you’ll do exactly as you’re instructed! There’s no other way around with all these bolders and smashed rubble surrounding us!” Silver snapped angrily.

When Ethan called out to the redhead, Silver spun around nimbly on his feet and sized the other lad up and down carefully. Could he remember Ethan in that moment? He’d faced off with so many loser trainers who proved to be of no challenge at all to him that it was hard to recall at first. It felt as though ten years or more had passed since they last crossed paths. Then it hit him from the very first battle, where Ethan’s Snivey had struggled against Silver’s Totodile. How did they eventually manage to best him again?

Then Silver slowly recalled the time when Ethan ran into him in union cave. Even when Silver finally managed to get ahold of some new Pokemon to his team, this punk brat brought more to try and beat him down relentlessly. Why? “Its you? Still letting mommy and daddy…or whoever buy all the Pokemon you want?” Silver snapped angrily, knitting his brows in frustration. "I hope you brought more than mice and lizards to play with this time!” Silver’s eyes darted around, as though he expected some bigger creature to stumble into view. But he used his body like a firewall, stepping in front of Ethan to make sure he blocked the other boy’s path anywhere else around this area.

“But listen, I’m not here to show you how pathetic you still are. There’s legends lurking around here that I plan to capture for myself.” He scoffed, using his hand to push his bangs out of his face. Silver nodded his head as though to help toss his bangs away from his face and spat at the floor beside his feet. Then he would stomp on his spit and rub the heel of his shoe into the old wooden floorboards. “You’re not even close to my league and nowhere near worthy of meeting such miraculous beasts. You wouldn’t even know what to do if you met one! So scram if you don’t want me to make you!” He snapped with flared nostrils.

Silver challenges you to a battle!

He sends out his Level 30 Golbat. Who will Ethan use first?

[Tiki]

Ethan came to a scene of Silver commanding his Croconaw with as much annoyance and obnoxiousness as he had remembered. He himself don't have a good memory of battling the redhead when he started, as he was occupied with other things besides Pokemon battling and being a trainer. Not to mention, there were more memorable battles than battling this child.

"Why do I have a feeling you just say that to everybody? Do you just assume everybody got their own Pokemon for free? And if they caught a Rattata themselves, you got tired of them?" He wasn't sure what this young man's problem was, but he wasn't enjoying his snark anymore than before.

He then listened to Silver gloated and bluffed a bit before formulating his own response. "Oh, a legend? I am just escorting this man," he turned to Eusine, "-- to see the legend. Do you mind capturing it after we get a look at it? I am sure it won't take much of your time. I hope you bring enough Pokeballs though. If you need more, I'll have to charge you a premium fee." He then watched in disgust as Silver basically spat on the ground and then stepped on it. Gross.

"And you look like you don't know what to do with soap if you see one. Gross. You're out here worrying about how I'll react with a legendary Pokemon, when you're trying to get sick or something. What are you, five?" He replied in response, making a disgusted face.

After the opponent had sent out his Golbat, Ethan quickly tossed one of his Pokemon to face it. "Well, I don't think you saw this one yet. Haphrost, start off with a Frost Breath!" The orange midget Pokemon giggled as he hopped and danced at the excitement of another battle. When he was ready, he would unleash a chilly no-nonsense breath of minty air at the flying rat with dislocated jaw.

[Caramell 🍬]

Silver turned away from Ethan and stared through the disheveled mess of the ancient tower as the other body seemed to yammer away about unimportant nonsense. The redhaired trainer wanted to make sure that he didn’t miss his opportunity to capture the legendary beasts for himself. “No…but you clearly do.” Silver stated in a bored yawn before pointing to Ethan’s small Snorunt. “No way you’re skilled enough and have enough badges to make it to Ice Path already.” He accused Ethan and smirked as he awaited the other boy to bluff his way out of that with whatever lie Ethan might try to make up. “But I’m not gunna let you or your friend pass. And I won’t need any extra balls to help me. I’ve got a special ball from my father’s business that you know nothing about.”

What was with these losers who thought that they could do anything they set their minds to, anyways? The large angelic bat zipped through the air above them, carefully darting between large wooden beams who were broken in half and dangled from the ceiling above them. “I’m going to have so much fun wiping the floor with you!” It chirped loudly with a large grin plastered across its face. “Then my trainer will see how truly talented I am!” Silver stared up at his bat and shook his head silently. Was Golbat already forgetting the mission? “Golbat stop goofing around up there and attack this kid’s ugly icicle quickly! Use your Confuse Ray, will ya?”

Haphrost began forming large crystals of ice on the tip of his breath but it wouldn’t be enough to help him through the worst of Golbat’s next attack. As soon as the large bat unleashed powerful beams of spiraling rays from his eyes at the small Snorunt, Haphrost began stumbling about in a ditzy haze. Was there now several Golbat fluttering above his head? He rushed at the nearest one and crashed headfirst into a wooden pole. “I’m the five year old?! You train your Pokemon like you’re five!” Silver cackled, pointing towards Ethan’s dazed and confused Pokemon. “Your stupid little bred mon can’t even tell the difference in its enemies and a wooden structure!” Silver jibed with a mean smirk painted across his face.

"I definitely haven't made it to Ice Path yet," Ethan replied, shrugging nonchalantly. "I bet it doesn't matter how I got him, but you'll still think I got it from my parents, right?" He wanted to skip the silly insults hurled by Silver, so he wondered if playing in defensive would deter this boy from talking trash.

"Wipe the floor? You couldn't even hold a mop!" The Snorunt giggled at the Golbat.

Ethan listened to the red-head's insult, but just smiled to laugh it off. "Well, I can only do so much when you start with a Confuse Ray. But I hope we'll pull through! Haphrost, try again and use Frost Breath!"

The Snorunt was walking wobbly and giggling noncoherently, but he was trying his best to turn toward one of the Golbats in his dizzying vision. "Where is the janitor?..." The Pokemon muttered in a disoriented tone, trying to fixate on where he thought the Golbat would be, before firing off his own Frost Breath from his mouth.

[Caramell 🍬]

Silver smirked and folded his arms over his chest. The redheaded trainer knew that this chump of a trainer couldn’t have made it all the way to the Ice Path by now. He couldn’t even believe that Ethan had what it took to make his way down here in this dark, desolate building that was practically falling apart all around them. “I knew it. Loser.” Silver spat at Ethan, shaking his head in disappointment before turning to his flying angelic bat and nodding his head firmly. “Don’t go easy on them, Golbat! Use Air Cutter to slice through your opponents with all you’ve got!”

“I don’t need to hold a mop to take you out!” Golbat giggled while flapping his large leathery wings together. He used all of his strength to create large gusts of wind that shot out like missiles from his wingtips. They sliced through the air itself, cutting random planks and pillars apart as though they were just blocks of cheese being diced up. A few of the sharp wind fragments would chop through Haphrost, leaving large gashes along his sides where they landed. “You’re barely worth my time as it is, don’t you think? Try and hit me!” Golbat mocked, soaring through the air as fast as he could while darting around the place.

“If it wasn’t your parents, then prove it.” Silver huffed with a satisfied smirk after seeing just how strong his Pokemon was in the midst of the fight. Golbat was more than capable of taking care of this chump and his barely raised purchased supplies of Poke-team power. “Enlighten me, if you will. Where, pray tell, did you get him? Hmm?” As Ethan complained about Golbat’s Confuse Ray, Silver placed a hand on his head and cackled. “You’re really that weak?!” Golbat cried loudly as the sharp icy breath tore through his wings and sides. “Of COURSE I start with a Confuse Ray! I’m setting up for a victory. Not babysitting a loser like you!” Silver snapped firmly.

"Of course you don't," The ice type giggled. "Because you're gonna be on the floor mopping the ground with your wings?" The Snorunt was too deep in his giggle and taunt to figure out the logistic how the Golbat would be mopping the floor without holding a mop or by itself. "Dang, I'm sorry I'm taking up your time. I'll make this quick so you can go look for a new mop with your human." He continued the tease.

"Are you sure you don't remember my Snorunt? I thought I had him since we battled a long time ago." Ethan replied, sounding confused as some memory came back to him. "Did I tell you where I got him back then? I can't remember..." He folded his arm and tilted his head, staring at a lone nail on a column, while trying to jog his memory some more. "Or should I just tell you again since you ask? Hey, go jog your memory too, maybe it'll help ease your temper if you remember something pleasant!"

His ice type then prepared for another minty flavored Frost Breath at the opponent. "Haphrost, Frost Breath again! Also don't be ridiculous, if anything, I would be the one to babysit you." Ethan added, almost bursting into laughter.

OOC:
gonna take a chance here.
Frost Breath

[Caramell 🍬]

Silver tossed a lock of his thick red hair over his shoulders and snorted. That annoying little frosty hat was unmistakable the longer he studied it, though he would have thought a competent owner to have evolved their Pokemon by now. “You mean the cone-head that barely managed to defeat my Totodile? Well, Totodile’s evolved now and won’t be a pushover like last time.” Silver smirked, eying the tiny snow hat up and down with disgust. “If anything…that just proves my point that you didn’t earn this guy fairly.” Who else was walking around the early routes of Cherrygrove with a snowy tundra Pokemon, after all?

“We don’t have time for this. Golbat, finish his stupid cone-head off with a blast of your Air Cutter.” The large angelic bat soared up high into the air with a wide grin as it eyed the tiny Pokemon on the ground below it. “I don’t think I’ll be mopping the ground anytime soon, sweetie.” Golbat laughed. It whipped up two powerful blasts of air that sliced through the environment and smacked Haphrost full force in his chest, knocking the little Pokemon over and causing him to faint. “But it looks like you’ll be mopping the floor with your tears. Hah!” It jeered and laughed meanly at Haphrost.

Silver smirked as soon as Haphrost collapsed on the ground and turned to Ethan with a knowing look. “Maybe you should spend more time training and evolving your Pokemon?” He laughed and pointed towards the small Snorunt. It was actually kind of boring that this wasn’t that hard of a fight for Silver overall. Such tough words for such a weakling. Whatever. “Now…ya gunna scram so I can catch these Legendaries for myself? Or do I have to blow you away, too? Hmm?” Silver asked, pressing one hand over his mouth as he yawned as though he were bored of Ethan and the fight altogether already.

"Well, congratulations on the evolution. I guess I'll see your Croconaw soon?" Ethan replied as politely as a worker telling a customer it's alright. "What's wrong with having a gifted Pokemon from the family?" He paused dramatically. "Don't tell me you're an orphan... or your family don't ever gift you anything!" He wasn't sure how Silver would reply to this, but hopefully not horribly.

"You didn't have time for this, but you still wanted to battle me. You could have look the other way!" Ethan hollered a little bit at the opponent. He then watched his Pokemon fainted by the Golbat's Air Cutter. He had to admit that his Golbat had evolved from the Zubat into something cool and useful, but he wasn't down for the count yet.

"Maybe that's why I am sending out my Snorunt? So he can have some training with your Golbat?" He shrugged and explained himself. "Battling wild Pokemon is not the same as battling with another trainer, and you should know that. Well, I am not done yet. Felime, start off with a Fake Out, and if you need to, give it a Power Gem!"

The Persian sniffed the air before staring at the Golbat, and then casually walked forward before striking her next move.

Persian Fake Out then Power Gem, unless fake out somehow crits.
