Ethan was busy messing around with the folding of his camping tent when another Ekans appeared! The Ekans hissed something at the same time the human was clanging his tent's metal poles or frames, so he didn't hear the snake that well. The Persian gracefully and casually sauntered forward to face another one of these weird Ekans from this area. The Persian can't help but yawn uninterested at the Ekans's unimpressive introduction.
"Hey um," She purred politely, walking forward to swat the purple snake to its senses. "This is not the Ekans Geek Convention, or are you like, living in your own world? What's next? You got some weird hero pose or what?" She tauntingly meowed.
"If you can't tell, my human is busy preparing to leave. Did they not teach you patience and slow down judgment at the Superhero Rattles show? Maybe it's in Season 2? Season 3?" She muttered. Obviously, there was no way the Persian would have watched the show since she's not from this area, but she was definitely making up these shows as she goes, like the Ekans making up a persona. She tensed her claws and prepared for a Scratch if the snake would have come closer. She'll have to teach the Ekans a lesson in patience, and read the room, for sure.

Was this lanky feline deaf or just slow? Didn’t Superhero Rattles tell her to amscray with all of her friends in tow?! “There’s no Geek Convention and this isn’t an act!” The snake puffed itself up, pushing its body to stand long and tall above the grass as it tried to tower over her. Since Superhero Rattles was canonically six feet long and Persian were canonically only three and a half feet tall, it was easy to tower over her by stretching itself up tall and high. “You’ve committed an atrocious crime and I am here to make you pay!” Ekans hissed firmly. Felime reached out with both of her claws and smacked Ekans on either side of its face. The ‘superhero’ recoiled, flipping back into the grass from the critically powerful move. It flipped about, twitching, and writhing in pain. What was that?! “What a cheap trick!” The Poisonous Pokemon hissed angrily as it rolled back over onto its stomach and turned back on the furry feline. Cats! They were all sneaky, mischievous Pokemon who only liked causing others pain for their own amusement! They didn’t even hunt for food – evilly only for fun! At least, that was the humor that Superhero Rattles believed. “Are you part of some show?! Because I don’t even know what a season is!” Ekans hissed angrily. It would shoot out of the grass with its mouth wide open, dripping saliva behind itself as it sped after Felime. The cat easily swatted it away, though, with another powerful scratch that send the snake flying back into the tall grasses. “This isn’t over!” Ekans – now battered and bruised beyond recognition – hissed as it fled into the night. It wasn’t prepared to deal with such a monstrous cat! It needed a sidekick or two to ensure that justice was served, first! Ekans' Moves: Swallow, Spit Up, Acid Spray, Sludge Bomb Felime's Attack: (crit) mw27hick1-16 (strength) 1-16 Ekans is frozen in fear! Felime's Attack: (crit) 1-16 (strength) 1-16

Felime purred wickedly in reponse, but gave the make-believe Ekans a short answer to her statements. "It can't be that atrocious, I haven't skin you alive, and slowly." She licked her lips. "It's not a cheap trick. It was a very valuable learned skill. Go learn and refine some techniques instead of accusation." Thankfully, after one last scratch, the poison type slithered away, presumably to look for a sidekick for real.
Ethan had finished putting away his tent, and packed away everything he had brought over for the camp. With everything packed and ready to go, there was one last thing he would need to do, and it was to double check for trash. He laid his packaged stuff on a high rock, and then walked around the area one last time to gather trash. He was a responsible person, not a littering Zigzagoon!

Rattata was living the life around this ‘careless’ human and his Pokemon. Whenever some bit of crumbs or small trinket had fallen onto the ground, the furry purple rodent darted quietly through the tall bushes and nabbed it away. As long as it stuck close to them, always slinking off to hide in the safety of the large bushy plants all around it, it could grow very fat and very happy with relatively no real effort put into the cause! When Ethan started cleaning the area up, Rattata’s eyes grew wide like saucer pans. Oh no! That was deliciously free food and plenty of nesting material he was trying to clean up after himself with! Rattata darted ahead of Ethan, trying to scurry as fast as its itty bitty legs could carry it. It needed to be nimble, swift, and sure of footing, to ensure that it would nab every little tiny crumb or useless bit of plastic or paper that Ethan might have wanted to clean up. Oh, no, no, no, no sir! I need this more than you, I assure you! I have four hungry children rodents and a crop in the field. Best leave it to the true wildland professionals to clean it all up. However, it was simply put just too hot for Rattata to be as nimble and sure of itself as it normally was. It slipped up. Big whoop! Act like you’ve never made a mistake a day in your life, why don’t ya?! It was only a little bitty one, too. Like, nothing to lose any sleep over, ya know? Ok, suurrree! It went after the same tiny piece of trash that Ethan swooped down to pick up at the same time. Suurre! It was baring its large, sharp teeth at the strange human. And…ok, ok,…YES! If Ethan doesn’t stop himself before trying to grab it, or one of his Pokemon don’t choose to hop in to save the day, it was a nearly positive result for human biting. But it would be 110% an accident, ok!? Like I said, a total mistake…if it happened…which maybe it didn’t? We need to see the poster’s reply to determine these things, don’t ya know? A Wild Rattata Appeared! Level 31. What will Ethan do? Heatwave will be in effect! Shiny: Xo8yxtjG1-42 Pokemon: (rare) 1-10 (uncommon) 1-3 (mon) 1-2 (level) 26-36

Ethan's hand was going for a piece of trash as he heard some teeth clicked, and his eyes met a Rattata who was strangely eyeing the same trash as he was. He stared at the purple rodent for an awkward length of time longer than necessary. He heard of sewer rat, and had seen field rats, but mountain rats? This was new. He totally did not see the other Rattatas his other Pokemon obliterated last night in the dark. Felime saw the situation, and silently crawled up to Ethan's side, as she did not want to fight a lowly Rattata herself. She broke the awkward silence by swatting his jeans pocket, where his Snorunt was summoned into the field instead. Ethan quickly backed up after feeling the swat, and then registered that his ice type was now also out of his Pokeball. "Heey!" The Snorunt yawned as Frost Breath escaped his mouth, providing some coolness in the midst of this heat. He was trying to gauge if it was the same Rattata from last night, but they're all too alike. He broke the silence again by lunging forward this time with his teeth encrusted in ice for a crunchy Ice Fang. "That trash is mine! We're trying to not litter!"ooc: frost breath then ice fang rattata can be "negotiated" for trash piece. up to you to decide if it's same one, but it's same level soo... and "last night" was too dark to see clearly

Rattata immediately jumped back and cowered against the ground as Haphrost appeared. It didn’t want to cause a problem. It just wanted to get a few extra bites to eat and gather all of this excellent nesting material for itself. They weren’t bad Pokemon, after all! Last night was pretty nice, where they allowed Rattata to spend some time with them, that it felt bad for trying to ‘steal’ all of this stuff from them. Maybe they didn’t understand how hard it was out in the midst of the hilly forest? How could it begin to explain to its new ‘friends’, who now saw it as some mean thief probably? “Oh…I’m sorry…truly!” It thwacked its tail all about and jumped at the bit of trash, trying to paw it away from Ethan and Haphrost. It accidentally hit Haphrost with the side of its body, then rolled backwards in the grass as it recoiled from the other Pokemon. That hurt, oww! Well, maybe it needed to be careful? Haphrost’s breath was icy cold and chilled Rattata to the bone as it shook itself off and tried to come back to its senses for the moment. “Ohhh! I know you were so nice to me before! But see what you’re calling ‘litter’ is great nesting material for me and my mate!” Rattata tried to explain. It would try just once more to dart forward and snatch the piece of trash away from them, though it would fail. As Haphrost got in the way, Rattata’s paws would accidentally thwack its new friend against his ‘cheek’, sucker punching him slightly. “Oops. I’m sorry…I just…I really wanted more nesting material.” Rattata insisted. “Are you sure I can’t have it? Is it bad if it stays in this environment as part of my nest?” It tried to understand. When Haphrost bit down on Rattata’s paw to shoo it away, it would slink away while shaking the new wound. “Ok…ok…I get it, sorry. I’ll go find something else to make my nest out of. I’m terribly sorry, I should have asked first!” Rattata apologized. Rattata's Moves: Crunch, Sucker Punch, Super Fang, Double-Edge Rattata's Attack: fgD63F1R1-4 (crit) 1-16 (strength) 1-16 Haphrost's Attack: (90% acc) 1-100 (strength) 1-16 Rattata's Attack: 1-4 (crit) 1-16 (strength) 1-16 Haphrost's Attack: (95% acc) 1-100

Hahrost tried to understand the situation as he listened to the Rattata and watched how it responded to the trash. One man's trash was another Pokemon's infrastructure material, or something like that. The ice type gripped his little hands together and thought to himself. First of all, it was unusual for this chill Pokemon to think deeply about a situation. Second, they would have to come up with a way to convince Ethan that the litter was actually useful.
"Uhh... Let me try to communicate that to the human. Just sit and watch." He then got moving for his pantomiming and charade.
Since the trainer had already let go of the trash from Felime's earlier swatting, the Snorunt decided to stand between the hand and the trash, while making a giggly happy face. He grabbed the litter and then handed it over to the Rattata's mouth, squealing at it to just bite it. Then, the Snorunt turned around and smiled and danced that it was fine.
Ethan thought he had understood the tribal dance, and let go of that piece of litter. He concluded his litter clean up early, and "forgot" about any other pieces that weren't already in his trash bag. Quickly wrapping everything up, he put on his backpack and hollered at his Persian and Snorunt. "Come on, let's go!"

Mizuma Estates was full of surprises. Like the way the skies cast a dark shadows over the hilly region as thick clouds covered the heavens above, making even the brightest parts of the day appear to be nearly nightfall in and of itself. Large, powerful gusts of winds surged across the landscape, ripping at the long branches in the nearby trees. Dynner would undoubtedly love the experience, as the strong winds would push against his large wings and make him much faster than he normally was. A blackbird darted through the thick green canopies above, busily building a nest in one of their branches. As soon as it soared off, sharp gusts would send all of its work toppling to the grounds below. “Acrues, be darned!” The large crow cursed underneath itself voice sharply, darting to the ground to collect the fallen twigs with its sharp beak, before returning back to its nesting sight. “You know this is PRIME nest building season. Wind?! Like this?! Of all things?!” The bird curled its wings in a balled ‘fist’ and shook it angrily at the skies. When it darted high in the air above the canopies, its eyes would land suspiciously on a bright orange lizard with large wings and a flame-tipped tail. Oh yes, because what it needed in strong winds was fire. Arceus, you genius! You regular Einstein! You lover and sweet creator of all things! You wouldn’t try to ruin little Murkrow’s plans of building the most impressive nest the world has ever seen for a certain other Murkrow AT ALL by giving it wind AND fire at the same time. Bah, humbug! “By Arceus, if you don’t get your little butt outta here until the winds die down some more, I’ll make you regret it, bucko!” Murkrow called out to Dynner angrily. “Can’t you see I’m building the absolute best next the world has ever seen?!” It gestured to the most pathetic pile of twigs in the branches below with one wing and huffed. A Wild Murkrow Appeared! Level 41. What will Ethan and his team do? Weather will be gusting! Tree? V1N33rQw1-10Shiny: 1-42 Pokemon: (rare) 1-10 (level) 32-42

ooc: the only "out of pokeball" mon is Snorunt and Persian, but my Pokemon can't read mind so... Frost Breath x2
"Little Butt? What are you talking about? You look a little small to me!" Haphrost was the first one to notice the Murkrow descending from the sky, and judging from the size difference, the young ice type was a little confused. However, his cheerful and simplistic manner of life made him delivered that with a giggle at the end. His breath exhaled with a frosty air trailing from his lungs.
"If your little eyes can see my little butt, but can't see that we're actually making our way out of here, then what is wrong with you? Maybe you're the bucko! Heehee" The Snorunt mocked and teased the flying Pokemon back. "Maybe you should look before you speak!"
Ethan saw that his Pokemon had jumped into action, and decided to take a few steps back from this cawing Murkrows. These flying Pokemon here were quite aggressive!

The blackbird searched everywhere in the windy sky for any sign of the large fire dragon that it had been chatting with. Though no matter how hard Murkrow stared, or where it tried to fly in hot pursuit, it couldn’t seem to find any trace of the lizard Murkrow had originally argued with. Instead, there was some tiny little ice Pokemon shouting back at it from the ground, looking almost like a snow hat and less like a sentient creature. “Where friend?! You not friend I argue with?” The senile Murkrow asked aloud, though this whole time it was its own mind playing tricks on it. “You miniscule guy! Could hardly lift rock! Be snack with blink of eye. Bet can’t even breathe a tiny icicle out! Hahahaha!” Murkrow jeered from the top of the tree it sat on. It pointed with one wing while wrapping the other wing around its midsection as though it were grasping its stomach and cackled loudly. “How you move? Blink blink, beg wind blow you? Must be! Hahahaha!” Murkrow couldn’t stop taunting its opponent. Haphrost’s sharp breath subsequently slashed into Murkrow, knocking it out of its tree and causing it to flop onto the grassy ground below. “Ow! Hurt! No fun! Now I mad!” The blackbird declared, hopping back up on its sharp talons before rushing at Haphrost with all of its might. “You no leave so soon!” It slammed its head with an assuring result against Haphrost’s back. When Haphrost spun around and breathed another sharp breath of icy air, though, Murkrow would immediately flee off into the distance. “Brrr! Too cold! I gone, you go now, I no want battle no more!” It cawed off into the distance. ![](https://pldh.net/media/pokemon/gen3/rusa/361.png) Haphrost gained 2050 EXP. 50*41: 2050 Haphrost increased to 3278/3571 EXP!Haphrost grew closer to Ethan. +1 Haphrost increased to +10 Happiness!

The Snorunt was confused about what the Murkrow was saying. "Argue? Friend? What?" He was uncertain of the concept of friends arguing with each other, but maybe Murkrows operate differently. The ice type ignored the dark type's taunting words, and kept on exhaling his icy unflavored breaths toward the opponent, until it would fly away in its sad little black wings. Ethan thanked his Pokemon for the help, and readily carried on his trek to talk to Miss Mizuna.
Once he had arrived to the building where the woman was at, he handed her a small storage device. "Hey, Miss Mizuna. Thank you for letting me stay for a night at your place. Here's the more... upbeat track you've requested. Hopefully this will help students who need energetic music to focus." He greeted the teacher, and awaited for her reply.

Ebony arms stretched out over smooth, almost silk-like, brown leather armrests. She rested in the old lounge chair with ease, flipping through the open copy of one of the recently released science magazines with ease and feigned as though she felt the heat of the fresh press printing still stinging against her soft fingertips. It was an illusion, brought on only through imagination, as such magazines in the modern era were printed well in advanced, bundled up in groups, and shipped off with days’ travel in most instances, even if it felt instant from the moment of ordering.
When Ethan pressed through the large, sweeping doors of Mizuma’s large education center, featuring some of the latest, state-of-the-art courses and delving into niche subjects rarely broken inside of such a diverse cast of learning levels, Mishu pushed herself up onto her feet and easily reset the lounge chair into its original position. Footsteps echoed dully behind her as heels clicked against smooth tile, a hand extended in greeting. “Mr. Bentley, I am really excited to see what you’ve put into this track!” While not the most popular name on the scene, he was known enough around the parts and had definitely garnered Mishu’s respect for the work he put into his work. “It’s Mizuma…but please. Call me Mishu.” She was with a soft laugh.
Then she turned and gestured past the receptionist, who sat with a rather doldrum expression flipping through a large novel while letting her eyes eat away at the passages inscribed inside. Long hallways basked in rich colors, though somewhat brooding and dark in some places, awashed back by brilliant whites and golds, led in several directions of mysterious wonders and rich unknowns. “Care for a tour? Or maybe we can head to one of my meeting rooms to sample this together, if you’d prefer?” Some scientists wrapped in their sweeping white coats hurried past with wide, worried expressions as they disappeared down one of the long, sweeping hallways into the distance.

After meeting with the lead of this education center, Ethan suddenly realized he got her name wrong. "Ooh, Mishu! I am sorry, I got your name wrong. I must have misread that 'n' and 'm'. " He paused awkwardly. "A tour? Sure! I've got time to look around your large educational complex. But, mind if I put away my camping stuff first in a room?" He made sure to ask, because he wasn't going to haul around his camping gears and folded tents while touring the campus.
He then waited for her to take lead to follow around the facility. He wasn't in a rush to show off his track, as he could use a change of scenery. He also wasn't sure how meeting Mishu would go, or what would she talk about, but he was sure he would just go with the flow, as people said.

Mishu nodded with a soft smile. “It’s quite alright. Legal documents are the only time that gets messy.” She laughed. Usually focused and serious, Mishu poured herself into her work, making her rather comedic side of her personality something of a rarity. The letters were awfully similar as well, to the point that elementary aged children were often taught to double one of the letters on itself to create the second one. She would then lead Ethan to an empty storage room and hand him the spare key, so that he could store his stuff and keep it locked if he was inclined to do so. “Of course! I wouldn’t expect you to haul it around the large estate.”
After Ethan managed to store his stuff then Mishu would turn and lead the way through the many long hallways. Here, she would take the time to explain all of the classes that they offered within the estates. “We try to offer classes for all age groups, including college-based courses. Some of our more popular classes include Basics of Survival and Offense verses Defense.” She would nod towards one class that was ongoing with a slight peek inside the room, before backing out and leading Ethan away. “That’s an ongoing quiz. Our quizzes are often prided on being tough, with prizes rewarded if you get it perfectly correct. We offer easy to hard skilled quizzes, and one special rank of ‘legendary’ quiz.” She added with a wink.
Now, while traveling and explaining the different classes that they offered, Mishu would also sneak in casual conversation to try and get to know Ethan better. “Are you planning to stay a while with us? What are your next personal goals along your journey?” She was currently working on her way through Johto, slowly dispelling the myths that surrounded her favorite type of Pokemon. Though, she’d learned along her travels that the reasons different trainers traveled and tested themselves against the different GYM Leaders were varied. It was still nice to know the person who went out of their way to create a soundtrack for your establishment.

Ethan let out a soft "heh" at the thought of Mizuna fighting and correcting legal documents. "That sounds stressful." He added.
After temporarily storing his camping items, he began following behind the leader of this academy in the tour. He replied after her introduction. "That's cool. Basics of Survival in the wilderness, right? Like camping and stuff? Or is this survival for things like, if a wild Pokemon injured you and you'll need first aid? Or both?" He asked curiously.
"Are the quizzes as tough as Roxanne's classes in Rustboro City? I'm from Hoenn, in case I didn't mention it before." Ethan continued, after peering into the class full of various students, in various states of distressed from nervousness, scratching their heads, to calmly forfeited any hope on the quiz.
"My goal is to be a successful DJ. Finding the niche crowd here in Johto. I've been to Goldenrod, but it might be too much of a competition to Whitney's fans. And sure, I can stay here a little longer, you have more to show me?" The young trainer replied, and readied his feet to follow Mishu to the next site.
