After arriving in Azalea Town, and kicking Team Rocket out of the Slowpoke Well, Shinya found himself a nice, shady tree to spend the night under. And it was a very good thing that he did, as a rather intense heat wave had fallen over Azalea Town and all surrounding areas while he was down in the Slowpoke Well. Even so, having grown up in the sunny and tropical Alola region, Shinya was used to such temperatures. Not at all bothered by the heat, the Bug type trainer made himself nice and comfortable under said tree, let out a yawn, and prepared to drift off to sleep for the night. However, before sleep could claim him, Shinya noticed two other trainers occupying the same route that he had chosen to rest on, one of which was Zaiden, the very same trainer that Shinya met back on the Secluded Island. But at the moment, it seemed as though Zaiden and the other trainer were looking for something. And from the looks of it, the other trainer had already found it, much to Shinya's surprise and disbelief.
Thinking that he had already drifted off into dreamland at first, the Alolan trainer rubbed his eyes just to be sure, but the sight before his eyes was very real. Thousands, maybe even millions of miles away from its home region, one of the other trainers had encountered a Galarian Meowth. "What the heck?..." Was all Shinya could manage to say in his current state, still processing the images before his eyes. Shinya had heard about swarms before, of course, but he never imagined regional variants could also be counted among such Pokemon. Quickly shifting gears and calling out all of his Pokemon for a late-night snack, the green-haired trainer slowly but surely came to a decision. He and his Pokemon were gonna catch one of these invasive Scratch Cat Pokemon.
Bugsy and his gym weren't going anywhere, and such a rare Pokemon in the Johto region would surely fetch a high price with any fellow trainers who were looking for new additions to their collections. Although, Shinya had no idea how much longer these Steel types would be here, and as he had already seen, he had some pretty stiff competition for them. If he and his team of Bug type Pokemon were gonna do this, then they'd have to hit hard and hit fast. Still, with a smirk on his face, the Team Skull grunt welcomed the challenge. After informing his Pokemon of their new mission, Shinya and his Pokemon all downed their snacks as fast as they could. Once that was done, Shinya called all six of them back to their respective Pokeballs, packed up all the food bowls and other supplies, then immediately ran out onto route 33.
OOC: Okay, before this Galarian Meowth hunt officially gets underway, I'd like to make a few changes to Shinya's party. First off, I'd like to place Shelmet into his PC, and withdraw the Caterpie in its place, but leave its stats blank please. Second, I'd like to give that Caterpie the EXP Share in Shinya's inventory to hold onto.
Third, I'd like to place Dwebble back into Shinya's PC as well and withdraw Anorith in its place. Fourth, I'd like the following changes made to Anorith's stats: No nickname, Female, and Adamant. And finally, I'd like to utilize the TM28 Dig in Shinya's inventory and the TM80 Rock Slide in Venom's inventory, having Anorith forget Water Gun and Smack Down in place of these two TMs. Thanks so much, and sorry for the rather long list of changes.

The young Team Skull member relaxed under a tree after another session of insulting Team Rockets. In the corner of his eyes, he would notice another trainer battling one of the swarming feline. This peeked his interest to capture one for himself, or as a bargaining chip. The crew had their late night snack before going for a hunt, because hunting on an empty stomach would be a bad idea and make anyone cranky! In the middle of the route was a lone Surskit crawling on the path, looking for a cool puddle to practice its moves. "Uh, this heat! Where's the water puddles!?" It chirped to itself, wondering where to find the next puddle to practice its diving and gliding. When it stumbled upon Shinya, the bug stared at the slim human and groaned. "Are you the one making it dry? Those weird plastic trash must be sucking up all the water!" It cried, thinking about those litters it saw ever since it lived here.

Even though the heat didn't bother Shinya at all, it was unfortunately a different story for the Pokemon that lived on this route. Even though it was the dead of night, it was still quite hot outside, and that was bad news for Shinya's current mission. Having seen this many times in his homeland of Alola, the Bug type trainer knew very well that intense heat caused most wild Water, Ice, and Steel types to run and hide. And as fate would have it, Galarian Meowth was indeed a Steel type Pokemon. Granted, it's not like the odds of finding one were zero or anything, but Shinya knew that he was on a time crunch to find one, as most swarms tended not to last for very long. And from the looks of Zaiden and the other trainer present on route 33, this swarm had been going on for quite some time already.
"Rgh! Damn this heat! What's wrong, wimps?! Afraid of a little hot air?!" Shinya yelled out into the night, hoping to provoke an attack from one of the Scratch Cat Pokemon he was looking for. His shouting did manage to attract the attention of one such Pokemon that was suffering from heatstroke, but unfortunately, it wasn't the one he sought. The Team Skull grunt stared right back at the Pond Skater Pokemon, listening to its words, and getting a sense of deja vu. This encounter was almost exactly like the time he stumbled upon a shiny Shellos. However, unlike back then, the Surskit before him was just its usual blue color.
Letting out a disappointed sigh, Shinya spoke to the Bug/Water type, withdrawing a Pokeball from his bag as he did. "Ya got the wrong guy, shrimp. But let me guess. Ya don't believe me, and now ya wanna fight. Whatever. Fine by me. But let's get this over with quick. I got better places to be. And speakin' of shrimp, let's see how ya match up against my new recruit!" With that, the green-haired trainer tossed his Pokeball out onto the battlefield, sending the newest addition to his team into the fray. From the red and white sphere came a Pokemon that hadn't been seen for millions of years, with big sharp claws, an armored shell, and power to match.
The Old Shrimp Pokemon, Anorith. As soon as she appeared from her spherical containment unit, Anorith used her big eyes to look all around, until they finally stopped on Surskit. But before she said anything, a big yawn escaped her mouth, and she rubbed her claws together in front of said mouth afterward. "...What's this now? You want me to crush this small creature, boss?" The Bug/Rock type sounded quite tired, but not because of the time of day. The source of her fatigue came from the fact that up until recently, she had been sound asleep, but was then woken up by some scientists and another trainer. The same trainer that Shinya received Anorith from not too long ago.
"That's the idea, Anorith! So, wake up, show me what ya can do, and bury this runt with your Rock Slide! And make it a double if ya have to!" Unlike his new Pokemon, Shinya was full of energy and aggression, shouting out her orders and waiting to see the power of a prehistoric Pokemon in action. "Okay, okay. There's no need to yell. This shouldn't take long. Then I can go back to sleep." Letting out another yawn, Anorith raised both of her claws as high into the air as she could, then focused her power. Several seconds later, some very large rocks appeared out of thin air directly over Surskit, falling down and threatening to crush the dehydrated Pokemon. As usual, Shinya had little to no sympathy for the less fortunate.
OOC: Running Shoes used, just in case the first Rock Slide misses.

"What? WHAT" The surskit said confused when Shinya answered it, "how is that answering any of my questions?!" It protested. "Where is the water? If you say I have the wrong guy then there IS someone who has sucked up all the water and you know who it is!" It gasped from the revelation, "so it is all that trash that is the culprit! I knew it!" It added as it made tons of conclusions on Shinya's answers. It paused when Shinya called out a pokemon and declared that the surskit wanted to battle and that it could face some very strange looking pokemon. The surskit didn't like that one bit, it was not a fighter, especially not in a horrible heat like this where it already fought the dehydration as it was a very water dependant pokemon and it was already drying up. "Wait! Waitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwait!" It exclaimed horrified, "I didn't say that! I don't want to battle! You don't have to do this!" It screamed panicked, "If you want to protect your friend who's stealing all the water, that's fine! It's fine! I'm not angry!""AAAAAAAAAAH!" It screamed and raced around to try dodge the huge boulder's which fell from the blue sky, it more or less managed although it did get bruised from the impacts and thrown around a bit. It darted off into the darkness. ![](https://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/bw/anorith.png) What a surprise! Anorith winds by a landslide (heh)! She grows +1 level to [Lv 23]!

"Oh, don't worry! It's no trouble, really!" Shinya exclaimed when Surskit frantically told him that he didn't have to do this, then laughed for a solid minute at his own sarcastic remark. This certainly did well to brighten Shinya's mood, which only improved even more when the wild Surskit ran off, injured and scared senseless. "Ahahahahah! Yeah, that's right! Keep on runnin', shrimp! And tell your friends!" Anorith took no offense to her trainer's "shrimp" comment, far too tired for such things, even with the boost in power she gained from her victory. And with her work now complete, she let out another yawn, curling up and making herself comfortable as she waited to be called back to her snug, warm Pokeball.
"...Great...Yay...Can I go back to bed now, boss? You can keep searching for this cat if you want...I'm just gonna..." The Bug/Rock type didn't even finish her sentence, dozing off right there on the spot. Shinya may have been rather cruel at times, but never to his own Pokemon, refocusing his attention on Anorith and calling her back to her Pokeball, as per her request. "Just be sure not to get too comfy in there, Anorith. I might need ya again later." The trainer from Alola put the red and white sphere away, then continued his search for the highly sought after Galarian Meowth. However, it seemed as though Mother Nature wasn't through messing with the green-haired young man just yet.
Less than ten minutes after the bout with Surskit came to a quick conclusion, Shinya noticed that the heat wave had subsided. And while this was good news for his venture to capture a wild Steel type, the next weather phenomenon that rolled in may prove to be an even bigger challenge for the Team Skull grunt. It seemed as though Surskit's wish was granted, for with a loud boom and a flash of light, a violent thunderstorm had rolled in, causing heavy rain to fall all over route 33. Naturally, the weather still didn't bother Shinya in the slightest, but he knew that the wild Pokemon felt very differently, letting out an exasperated sigh. "...Sure. Why not?" The Bug type trainer questioned out loud and rhetorically, before picking up his pace, continuing his search, and hoping that he could find just one Galarian Meowth that wasn't afraid to get wet.
OOC: I will allow Caterpie to evolve into Metapod. Thank you.

With the heatwave dissipated, the moisture gathered from the weather accumulated to a heavy thunderstorm that began pouring down and drowning the world in a blanket of gray. Wary that the Meowth would be fearing water like a typical cat, the bug type trainer continued to search in the downpour atmosphere. Shinya approached a lone Meditite under the cover of a tree, where an occasional stray rain might bother it, but not an endless amount of rain splashing at its face and body. It was trying to meditate, but it was also visibly annoyed by the random sound of thunder and flashes of lightning. When the human approached, the duo type opened its eyes and sighed before facing him.

Within minutes, Shinya was completely soaked from head to toe, but continued to trudge on through the rain and thunder regardless. Most people would likely consider being outside at night in the middle of a thunderstorm to be just plain maddening, but right now, the only "mad" thing on route 33 was Shinya himself. And not in a crazy way. As much as he wanted to locate a Galarian Meowth and be done with this whole capture mission, the Bug type trainer also desired something to help him take the edge off his mood at that moment. In short, some wild Pokemon or fellow trainer was about to become very miserable, and possibly in a lot of pain as well. The question was, who would Shinya's unlucky victim be? The answer came about five minutes later, in the form of a small Psychic/Fighting type that the Alolan trainer stumbled across during his pursuit of the foreign Steel type. When it got up to face him, Shinya immediately grabbed a Pokeball from his bag, and gained a slightly better attitude. Only slightly though. "Not exactly what I had in mind, but I guess you'll do. Gimme a good show, Yanma!" In his bored and frustrated state, Shinya called upon the most entertaining of all his Pokemon, tossing her Pokeball up into the air. When it opened, the flash of light was perfectly accompanied by a flash of lightning, followed by Yanma flapping her wings so fast that the rain bounced right off of them. "Whoa! What's up with this weather?! It's nuts! And speaking of nuts..." The Clear Wing Pokemon commented with shock, but quickly regained her composure, looked down at the wild Meditite, and gained a smirk upon her face. "Want me to crack this puny scrub's head open, boss?" Just as Shinya had hoped, Yanma did well to lift his spirits, as he began to smirk as well, giving his beloved Pokemon a nod and her first set of orders. "That's exactly what I was hopin' you'd say, Yanma. Now, gimme a Silver Wind! Actually, make that two Silver Winds! Just in case this little scrub decides to use Detect!" Having been given her orders, as well as a heads up on Meditite's possible tactic for dodging danger, Yanma flapped her wings even faster, whipping up a powerful, silvery wind that headed straight for the Meditation Pokemon and blew away all the raindrops in the surrounding area. OOC: Running Shoes used, just in case of Detect. Also, Tiki, you forgot to leave a note about Caterpie's evolution into Metapod. And while I know Yanma won't gain any levels from this, I'm not sure what the rules are for that Metapod. But just in case it does gain another level here, I do approve its evolution into Butterfree. Thanks.

The heavy thunderstorms already interrupted Meditite’s meditations enough. It was quite annoyed with Shinya and his team of bug Pokemon encroaching in its space. It wouldn’t move right away, though it would keep its eyes focused on Shinya as it tried to decide whether he was a threat or not. “I need space and quiet to meditate.” The small humanoid Pokemon complained, raising a hand to ‘shoo’ Shinya off as though he was a fly buzzing around its head. “The weather has already caused me enough grief.”When Shinya called out the bright red dragonfly with large translucent wings out of her ball, the blue Pokemon would hop out of the tree to face them properly. It grimaced as its feet hit the soggy ground underfoot and sent muddied water to splash halfway up its body. This was not how it wanted to spend the day. “Are you happy? I need to meditate so that I can summon clear skies and better days. If you don’t let me do my work, we will have a tornado raging across the whole terrain soon enough!” Meditite pleaded with Yanma as it gestured towards the loud thunderclouds above their heads. Yanma whipped up a flurry of sharp winds tinted with a soft silvery hue. They spiraled wildly around, snatching up debris such as sharp rocks and broken twigs inside of its grasp. The howling winds slammed into the small Meditite, knocking the little Pokemon backwards across the ground and deep inside of the nearby wooded area. “You’re way too strong of an opponent! May Arceus have mercy on your souls!” Meditite roared loudly as it disappeared into the night. Notes: To answer your question Venominon Pokemon with EXP Share will still get their +1 level so long as they're not used in battle, regardless of level differences. Looks like I'm wrong. If 10+ over the opponent's level, no level gains are given for under 25. Sorry about that mixup.

"Oh please! If a Pokemon like you actually had the power to control the weather, your kind would be in much higher demand! But I haven't seen a single trainer with one of ya or your evolved form in years! And even if that was true, good! Maybe a tornado is just what we need to clear away some of the hidin' spots around here! Not to mention it'll probably destroy the hometown of that poser, Bugsy!" Shinya completely disregarded Meditite's warnings, belittling and laughing at the Meditation Pokemon as well. Although, the Psychic/Fighting type's warning wasn't completely false, as Yanma's Silver Wind attack whipped up a rather sizeable tornado, which literally added insult to injury for the wild Meditite. "Yeah, and don't you forget it, pipsqueak! Nobody crosses the boss!" Yanma yelled out some belittlement of her own, then laughed some too, as Meditite limped deeper into the woods of route 33. "And if Arceus really is watchin' right now, then he can bite me!" Shinya immediately yelled out again once Yanma was finished, shouting as loud as he could to the stormy heavens above, actually hoping that Arceus heard what he said. Yanma then fluttered over to Shinya and landed on top of his head, as trainer and Pokemon shared a few more laughs in the pouring rain. Although the battle was short, and yielded very few results, the Team Skull grunt's mood had definitely improved significantly over what it was beforehand. "Well, that did the trick. Thanks, Yanma. I knew I could count on ya to lighten the mood out here." Shinya glanced up at the Clear Wing Pokemon, smiling and giving her a few gentle head pats with his right hand, which said Pokemon was very happy to receive. "Always happy to be of service, boss. Ya can call on me anytime. Rain, snow, tornado, doesn't matter." Yanma happily declared with a smile of her own, completely unafraid of the booming thunder overhead. Just like the trainer who raised her. "Yeah, I know. But I hate to see your wings gettin' all wet. So, take a break for now. I might call on ya again later." After calling Yanma back to her red and white sphere, Shinya resumed the search for a Galarian Meowth, continuing his hike through the rain and mud. OOC: It's cool, Caramell 🍬. Thanks for the info. Just means I need another encounter. Hopefully at a higher-level next time.

With the rain continued to be pouring, the young bug type trainer continued his search for the elusive and swarming Meowth. He walked by some Mankey peeking out then backed in their trees in the forest, making their Mankey cries. Some Jigglypuff were practicing their sad song renditions and remixes, but thankfully the sound of thunder and pouring rain interfered with the hypnotic effect. Some Nidorans were chasing each other in the rain like a summer romantic comedy that ended in tragedy that nobody asked for. Soon, Shinya came across a Meditite and Meowth that were planning something, as they were discussing in detail. "Okay, listen up! Those dang Jigglypuffs were always out of tune. We're going to hit them unexpectedly when they would stop for a break." The calm psychic Pokemon explained its plan, floating in the air and using its hand for motions. "Copy that! And I will claw those loud puffballs into shreds!" The feline purred in response, scratching a tree to sharpen its claws.

As he continued his trek through the rain, Shinya couldn't help eyeing all the various wild Pokemon he past, observing them going about their individual business and what not. He didn't show much interest in the Jigglypuff or Nidorans, but was glad that the rain and thunder were more than enough to drown out the Balloon Pokemon's annoying music. However, the green-haired trainer did show at least some interest in the wild Mankey he saw. True, they definitely weren't Bug types, but ever since the discovery of Annihilape in the far-off region of Paldea, it seemed as though everyone had suddenly taken an interest in the Pig Monkey Pokemon. But getting his hands on one of these Fighting types would have to wait. For the moment, Shinya had bigger fish to fry. Or "cats" in this case.
And speaking of cats, it seemed Shinya's luck was finally starting to turn in his favor, as he stumbled upon a pair of wild Pokemon plotting some mischief. And one of them was the very Pokemon he sought. Unfortunately for these wild Pokemon, they'd never get the chance to inflict any pain on any Jigglypuff. In fact, they were likely about to be in quite a bit of pain themselves. After listening to their little scheme, the Team Skull grunt smirked, grabbed a pair of Pokeballs from his bag, and approached the Meditite and Meowth from behind, addressing them when he was only a few yards away from them. "As much as I enjoy a good beatdown, I'm afraid I'm gonna have to put a stop to your little plan before it starts. Not sorry, but you're comin' with us, kitty. Go get 'em, Joltik! You too, Wimpod!"
After addressing the two wild Pokemon before him, Shinya tossed the two Pokeballs in his hands down onto the makeshift battlefield, sending in his two Pokemon of choice for the battle and capture. "GAH! First a dark cave, and not a thunderstorm?! Boss, I know you're in charge, but why me?! Can't Scyther, Yanma, or Anorith take care of this instead?!" After a very loud bolt of lightning, Wimpod immediately started cowering, shivering with fear in the spot where he stood and hoping that his trainer would swap him out for a different Pokemon. "Are you crazy, Wimpod?! Look at all this lightning! I really hope one of these bolts hits me! It all looks super delicious!" Joltik, on the other hand, was ecstatic to be battling in the middle of a thunderstorm, looking up at the thunderclouds with big sparkles in her eyes and a little drool running down her face, mixed in with the rain, of course.
Having listened to the two very different opinions and views from his Pokemon, Shinya chose to ignore Wimpod's plea to sit this one out, withdrawing an empty Pokeball from his bag in preparation for his latest capture. "Alright, listen up, you two! We're aimin' to capture the one with the claws! The other one is disposable! So, don't be afraid to really let that one have it! Wimpod, use Leech Life on Meditite! And Joltik, use Thunder Wave on Meowth!" Naturally, given her enthusiastic nature, Joltik was the first to carry out Shinya's orders, building up a paralyzing jolt, then sending it straight for the intruder from Galar. At the same time, as much as Wimpod didn't enjoy the thunder, he did have to admit that the rain felt good at least. So, doing his best to focus on that, the Bug/Water type headed right for Meditite, planning to suck out as much of its energy as he could with his sharp fangs.

"You'll never take me alive!" yowled the mowth, swiping its paws in the air with menace, steely claws flashing as lightning set the horizon aglow. It would not be deterred from its quest to shred those jigglypuff by a human and some puny looking bugs. It would cat scratch those bozos outta here! But before the cat could move a muscle, it was hit by a powerful jolt of electricity and every inch of it seized up, leaving it frozen in place, stunned into inaction. It growth with as much menace as it could muster, but for now it was helplessly reliant on its friend to settle things. "G-get'm pal." The meditite nodded and stepped between its friend and the foes, but as it lifted its hands to focus its psychic energy, it was smacked into by the wimpod. Ouch! That bug just bit it. HARD. Energy harshly sapped, it staggered back. "Pal?" "I'm fine. I've got this handled," the meditite insisted, taking in a breath. "We'll get those jigglypuffs together. Just you wait. They won't break up the dream team." "They better not! Kick their tails!" Once more the meditite focused its mental energy and suddenly, wimpod would feel all topsy-turvy for a moment as it was slammed into a nearby tree with keen accuracy. Fortunately, it wasn't as harsh as it could have been and it didn't feel the need to retreat.

Wimpod may have been intimidated by Meowth's little display of ferocity, but Shinya sure wasn't, smirking at the Pokemon from Galar and grabbing an empty Pokeball from his bag. "Oh, I think we just might." The Bug type trainer said to the Steel type in a very condescending tone of voice, and continued to maintain that tone as he went on to tell that same Steel type what fate he had in store for it. "But don't worry, little guy. We'll let ya go...to the highest bidder!" Shinya raised his voice when he got to that last part, then couldn't help snickering a bit, as another bolt of lightning flashed at that exact moment. If Meowth had any plans to run away at all, they pretty much became impossible the moment it fell victim to Joltik's Thunder Wave attack. And although he suffered some damage from Meditite's Confusion, Wimpod was quickly able to regain his composure, but was still too frightened by the thunderstorm to show even the slightest bit of confidence. "Ouch...That hurt. Aren't we done yet? Please?" Even though she was soaking wet, Joltik was still able to zip all around at high speed, zipping over to her injured teammate, climbing onto his back, and nuzzling her furry, but soaked body against his own. "Almost! Almost! Almost, Wimpod! Just one more round, and that should be the end of it! You can hold out that long, can't ya?! Can't ya?! Can't ya?!" The Turn Tail Pokemon really hoped that she was right about that, desperate to get the heck out of the rain and thunder ASAP. Fortunately for him, Shinya wouldn't leave him out in the rain for much longer. "Right ya are, Joltik. I like the foulness of these two, but they made one fatal mistake. They dangled somethin' rare and valuable in front of me. So, as much as I hate to break up such a villainous pair, this battle is over, and that Meowth is ours." The Team Skull grunt tossed the empty Pokeball in his right hand up and down several times as he spoke, continuing to smirk, before giving his pair of Bug type Pokemon what may very well turn out to be their final set of orders for this confrontation. "Joltik, use Energy Ball on Meditite and get it outta the way! And Wimpod, I don't know! Just go put some mud in Meowth's eyes or somethin'!" Wimpod was a little hurt by his trainer's words but was glad to hear that he didn't actually have to do any fighting this round at least, gathering up some sand to use for his Sand Attack while he waited for Joltik to take her turn, knowing full well what his trainer meant. Although, with the heavy rainfall, the "sand" was mostly mud. "W-Whatever you say, boss...""You got it, boss! Just watch me! Watch me! Watch me, okay?! Are ya watchin'?! I sure hope so, because here goes! Take this and remember to never cross Team Skull again, chump!" Maintaining her position on top of Wimpod's back, Joltik focused all four of her eyes on Meditite, built up as much energy as her tiny body could muster, then let it all go in the form of an Energy Ball, which flew straight for the Psychic/Fighting type. Unfortunately for the Meditate Pokemon, Joltik's Compound Eyes ability meant that she rarely failed to her target. And while the Energy Ball was flying towards Meditite, Wimpod skittered over to the pair of wild Pokemon, and threw a rather large ball of mud right at the Steel type's face. "Team Skull are the only troublemakers around here! Remember that, both of ya!" Shinya shouted as loud as he could, with a great deal of pride in his voice, even if that wasn't really something to be proud of, watching two of his prized Bug type Pokemon make life much worse for the two miscreants. OOC: Fixed. Thanks again for the advice, Pixel. Much appreciated.

"MEDITITE! BUDDY! PAL! GET UP!" The meowth watched in horror as his partner in crime was knocked clean out by that energy ball. It whirled sluggishly in horror as the situation became two on one. It was up to him to win this. For both of them! Teeth were bared and claws came out, "I'll mess you up for this, hear me?!" The meowth wasn't backing down, not when its pal was hurt. And there was no way it was going to go down without a fight either, especially when those bozos were talking smack about putting him up for sale. "I aint some house cat you can shove in a ball and forget. I'll make ya regret messin' with us, I—" It sputtered as it got mud flicked on its face. A frustrated yowl erupted out of its throat. No way was it going to tolerate this! Time to show them who was boss! Its claws extended further as it slashed them wildly, sharpening them in seconds against each other like knives. Its flurry of activity made his claws such potent weapons that even having mud in its face wouldn't stop it from cutting deep with keen precision. "I WILL TAKE YOU DOWN!"

Shinya continued to toss the empty Pokeball in his hand up and down as he waited for Meowth to finish his ranting, never losing his rather cocky smirk for even a moment. "Yeah, we hear ya. But talk is cheap, while you, on the other hand, are not. If there's any solace in any of this for ya, it's that we definitely won't forget about ya. Nor will whoever we sell ya to, I'm sure." The Alolan trainer's tone and demeanor were clear indication that he did not fear the Scratch Cat Pokemon or its threats in the slightest, just about ready to throw the spherical device in his right hand and bring this confrontation to a close. At the same time, Joltik was far too hyperactive for fear, but Wimpod was a different story. Naturally.
"B-Boss...I know you don't like it when others order you around...but could you please just capture this mouthy little brat already so I can go back to my Pokeball? I'd really like to get out of this storm..." The Bug/Water type pleaded with his trainer to hurry this capture along, as another bolt of lightning flashed and boomed overhead, causing the same Bug/Water type to let out a loud scream of fear. Fortunately for the Turn Tail Pokemon, the Attaching Pokemon was on his side on this matter. "Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Do it, boss! Do it! Catch it, then let's go sell it to some other trainer for as much as we can! Then we can get something really cool! Like a new friend or some TMs! I wanna learn how to use Thunder and make our enemies go boom!"
At the exact moment Joltik finished speaking, another bolt of lightning lit up the whole route, causing the light in the Bug/Electric type's eyes to shine even brighter. "Just like that!" Although Shinya didn't care for Wimpod's continued cowardice, he did find Joltik's desire for destruction to be very amusing, as a few chuckles escaped his lips. "Okay, okay. I think we've wasted enough time on these wannabe troublemakers. Joltik, hang back for now. Wimpod, be ready for another Sand Attack if this pipsqueak turns out to be more stubborn than he looks." Both Bug type Pokemon heard their master loud and clear, then watched with bated breath as he gripped the empty Pokeball, brought his arm back, then threw the red and white orb with all his might, hitting the Galarian Meowth right in the metal charm on top of its head.
OOC: Pokeball used in place of Joltik's turn.
