Meowth didn't think it'd go down easy. Not with freshly honed claws and a heart full of determination. IT WOULD AVENGE MEDITITE! It sluggishly lunged for the joltik who paralyzed it. But revenge was not meant to be. In slow motion it watched the pokeball sail towards it, the harbinger of doom. The meowth twisted and tried to bat the ball away, but fumbled, batting the button instead with one paw. A flash of light poured out from the little capsule and the feline saw its future in sudden, startling clarity. A yowl curled up in its throat as it tried to swat again with the other paw, but ultimately, it was too late. Thunder rolled like a promise on the horizon as that light swallowed it whole. Meowth closed its eyes. It offered its friend a solemn apology. It had failed. 'One day I'll find ya again and we'll show them jigglypuff's who's boss.'The ball fell still.
Meowth was caught!

In yet another flash of lightning, the ball was transported to Shinya's PC, and the capture was a success. "Yes! Yes! Yes! We did it, boss! We did it, Wimpod! We did it! Now, let's hurry up and sell it! Let's do it! Do it now! Now! Now!" Joltik excitedly declared, skittering all around with great speed while doing so. And it wasn't just her. Shinya and Wimpod were both quite satisfied with their latest victory as well. "Patience, my dear Joltik. We'll find a buyer. I'm sure it won't take too much time. But for now, I'd like to get in at least a little more trainin' before we call it a night. Remember, we're facin' that poser, Bugsy, tomorrow. First thing in the mornin'. And I want all of ya to be not just strong enough to win our second badge, but also to completely destroy Bugsy and all of his Pokemon."
Just the thought of Bugsy's destruction alone was enough to make Shinya almost as excited as Joltik was, grinning ear to ear, with some very obvious anticipation in said grin. After that, the Bug type trainer called Joltik back to her Pokeball, but not Wimpod for some reason. Naturally, this caused the Turn Tail Pokemon some very obvious distress right away, as he looked up at his trainer and questioned his actions with quite the shaky tone of voice. "Uhhh...B-Boss...the battle is over now...Isn't it time for me to go back to my Pokeball?...Maybe?" However, the answer that Shinya gave the Bug/Water type was exactly the answer he dreaded to hear. With the rain still coming down hard, and thunderbolts continuing to light up the night, the Team Skull grunt turned and looked down at Wimpod, losing his grin as he explained his motives.
"Did ya not hear what I just got done sayin', Wimpod? I want all of ya to get strong enough to destroy Bugsy's Pokemon with ease. As things stand, you're the weakest link on this team. And as ya may or may not know, a team is only as strong as its weakest link. So, no. You're not goin' back to your Pokeball. Not until ya gain another level or two. So, c'mon. Let's find ya another opponent. Preferably one with some bite to 'em." With that, Shinya turned his eyes back towards the path before him and continued to trek through the rain and mud of route 33, searching for a promising opponent for Wimpod to snack on. "Uhhh, boss? Boss?! Wait for me!" As much as he hated being out in this weather in the middle of the night, Wimpod hated being alone in these conditions even more, quickly following Shinya's lead, in spite of the predicament he had now been forced into.
OOC: Now that Metapod has evolved into Butterfree, I would like to have it learn Gust, forgetting Harden in its place. Additionally, I'd like to return the EXP Share to Shinya's inventory and return Butterfree to Shinya's PC, putting Shelmet back into his party in its place. And finally, I'd like Shinya's newly captured Galarian Meowth placed in his PC with its stats kept blank. Thanks so much.

As Shinya was trekking through the rain, he and his Wimpod would stumble upon another human along the route. A young girl was darting through the rain and trying to reach her next destination. She lamented under her breath at the uncomfortable situation she was in. "Ugh, why does it have to rain so hard right now! My clothes are gonna be soaking wet!"She stopped when she saw Shinya. "I am having a bad day, and you're part of it! Why did I stay at Stephanie's party so late tonight? Why is it raining tonight?" She grumbled angrily. "Well, you're going to battle me now. I am already wet so there's no difference now."She tossed out a Pokeball and sent out her first Pokemon. "Afancia, come on out!"

As annoying and inconvenient as it was, the heavy rain was also kind of astounding. With every single step he took, Shinya's shoes would get completely covered in mud, but the rain was coming down so hard that it washed the mud off as quickly as it appeared. Of course, it also limited where Shinya and Wimpod could go, having considerably altered the terrain of route 33 by this point. The water had been coming down so hard and for so long that new rivers and deep puddles were beginning to overtake said route, greatly reducing the amount of solid land to stand and walk upon. As a Water type, Wimpod should've felt significantly more comfortable and at home in such an environment, but instead, it only made him that much more nervous and afraid. "H-Hey...C'mon, boss...L-Let's just head back to town where it's safe...I'll make up for it by doing a good job against Bugsy tomorrow, I swear..."
The Turn Tail Pokemon pleaded desperately with his trainer to call it a night, his entire body shaking with fear, which only got worse when a bolt of lightning struck only about a quarter of a mile away from where they stood. Clearly, the storm was just about at its apex. However, as one would expect from someone who grew up in a place where the rain never stopped, Shinya wasn't even the least bit scared. Although, he was rather annoyed by all the streams and puddles blocking nearly all the paths in and around the route. "Tch. Ya never would've lasted in Po Town, Wimpod. For your sake, I hope ya evolve and grow a pair before we one day go back there. Now, quit complainin' and help me look for some chumps to battle. The faster ya battle and win, and faster ya can get out of the storm."
With that, the Bug type trainer and Pokemon turned around and continued the search for one final opponent for the night, taking a different path that didn't have as much water on it. And as much as Wimpod hated to admit it, his trainer was right. Despite all his fear and complaints, in the back of his mind, Wimpod knew that he'd eventually have to grow up, take a stand, and become the Pokemon that Shinya knew he could be. Plus, it's not like he didn't want to one day evolve into a Golisopod. All the stories Shinya told his Pokemon about his big bro, Guzma, and his own Golisopod were more than enough to make Wimpod wanna be just like Guzma's Golisopod one day. To that end, Wimpod was willing to do anything to make that happen. He just hoped that "anything" wouldn't turn out to be something downright terrifying.
Then, a few minutes later, amid the sounds of rainfall and rushing water, Shinya and Wimpod heard an unfamiliar voice, turning in the direction of said voice to find its source. Upon seeing the female trainer, Shinya's usual grin returned to his face, as he began to approach the female trainer. "Fresh meat." The Alolan trainer had only expected to find another wild Pokemon or two, but this was even better, especially if this girl's Pokemon were around the same level as Shinya's. Wimpod followed Shinya's lead, taking a deep breath and trying his hardest to compose himself for battle. The two only stopped their advance once the girl noticed them and began to speak, to which Shinya quickly replied, sounding rather pleased with himself. "Well, gee. Thanks for sayin' so. It's what Team Skull does best after all. And yeah, we are lookin' for a battle. So, bring it on, little girl! Team Skull will turn your bad day into a livin' nightmare!"
The Team Skull grunt and his Pokemon then watched as Hanna sent out her first Pokemon of choice, tossing its Pokeball directly into one of the surprisingly deep puddles nearby. With a decent-sized splash, Hanna's Carvanha, named Afancia, surfaced in the puddle, looking perfectly content and maneuverable in said puddle. Unfortunately for the Savage Pokemon, Wimpod was just as at home in water as it was, and he was a Bug type. "A Carvanha is pretty impressive for such a little girl, but a Dark type like that can't compete with a Bug type! Show her what I mean, Wimpod! Use Leech Life now!" Most living creatures would be very reluctant to get into any body of water with a Carvanha of all Pokemon, but this was Wimpod's chance to finally start acting like a Golisopod. "...I...I...I'm coming for you, fish face!" Letting out a loud battle cry, Wimpod jumped straight into the puddle himself, and skittered as fast as he could along the bottom, heading straight for Afancia's underbelly.

The school girl stared at Shinya for a second, not sure what he was talking about. Team Skull? She had never heard of such a thing. Did they meet up and play with Skull fossils? Whatever it was a reference to, she wasn't exactly thrilled with running into this guy, but the challenge had been thrown down and accepted, and she now just had to deal with it. "Afancia, let's teach this brute a lesson with your poison fang!" she called out, smirking. No one ever expected a move like that from her little fishy wishy, and it often was successful in poisoning her opponents. They then had to deal with the miserable effects all battle long, until they either fainted or were recalled by their trainers. She wasn't sure which type of trainer he was, but he seemed rather brutish and probably didn't treat his Pokemon well. Her Carvanha's mouth and teeth started to glow purple but before the fish could even move, the Wimpod was on top of it, biting hard into the scaled hide of the piranha Pokemon. Sharp edged skin raked into the side of the Wimpod as the attack was successful, leaving a little bit of a reminder that physical attacks were not good against the dark type. Unfortunately, it was for naught as the Carvanha bellied up after just one strike, crosses for eyes. Hanna stared in disbelief. One attack?! That was it? No one at school was this strong. Gulping, she returned the first fish to its poke ball, before taking a second poke ball out. Tossing it up into the air, her second Pokemon appeared, her Finneon. The second fish landed in the same puddle, ready to attack the one who took down its teammate.

Staying true to his nature, Shinya continued to grin and laughed out loud as soon as the first round of battle came to an end, very amused by the outcome. "Hahahahahahahahaha! Ya see that, little girl?! Don't underestimate Team Skull! Even the weakest member of my team is strong enough to cause high levels of destruction! But hey, look on the bright side! I hear Carvanha meat is pretty tasty deep fried and served with a side of chips! Hahahahahahahahahahaha!" As Shinya held his sides with laughter, another bolt of lightning struck the ground with a bright flash and a loud "BOOM!", getting even closer to the makeshift battlefield. Although, after that one-sided victory, Wimpod was no longer the weakest member of Shinya's party, with his sudden burst of courage paying off in leaps and bounds.
Still, that didn't stop the Bug/Water type from wincing in pain because of the damage he had received from Afancia's Rough Skin ability, skittering out of the puddle and rubbing some mud on his wound to try and ease said pain. About a minute later, Shinya noticed his Pokemon's return to the surface, deciding to offer him some praise for his efforts in winning this bout all on his own. "That was good, Wimpod. I can honestly say that I'm impressed." The Turn Tail Pokemon was very happy to finally be hearing some praise from his trainer for a change, feeling even stronger and more confident as a result. That being said, with the lightning strikes getting closer and closer by the second, he still wanted desperately to go back to his Pokeball and call it a night. "Th-Thanks, boss...Uhhh...Can I please go back to my Pokeball now? I did what you asked and got stronger. That's a good thing...right?"
Shinya was just about to give Wimpod his answer, but then he noticed Hanna's second Pokemon, watching as it surfaced in the same puddle where its teammate went belly up. But unlike the Savage Pokemon that came before it, Finneon likely wouldn't go down nearly as easily. Given that they were native to the Alola region, Shinya had some experience with this Water type Pokemon as well, which was exactly why he took a moment to think before making his next move. Not only did Finneon have Gust, a Flying type move in its arsenal, but one of its abilities was also Swift Swim. If Hanna's Wing Fish Pokemon had both Gust and Swift Swim, then it could prove to be quite troublesome for Shinya's team of Bug type Pokemon. Granted, the Team Skull grunt figured that Wimpod would be more than strong enough to tank a single Gust attack and keep on fighting, but then his own ability, Wimp Out, would undoubtedly activate and force him to swap out with another of said grunt's Pokemon.
But then, just as that thought cross his mind, Shinya's grin returned, as a rather devious and risky idea had just taken shape within his mind. "Okay then, let's use this! Wimpod, I need ya to stay with me for one more round but get ready to switch out the second it's over! Now, show this fish stick what your Sand Attack is all about!" If the green-haired trainer's plan worked, he and his team would once again gain the upper hand in this battle. Not to mention it'd be pretty damn cool if it did. "Huh?!...I don't really get it, but if it'll finally get me out of here, then okay, boss!" Still holding onto as much confidence as he could after his victory over Afancia, Wimpod gather even more mud from the area all around him, planning to chuck it right into Finneon's face the first chance he got. All the while, he also braced himself for impact, fully aware of Finneon's possible ability himself, being from the Alola region too.

Tch. Definitely a brute. And a class A weirdo to boot. She'd have to tell her classmates about this Team Skull weirdo and his weird bug that knocked out her fishykins in one hit! Which was totally not fair! "Jakeon will take you on," she declared. Indeed, he did have the swift swim ability. Because as soon as the young trainer called out a move, the fish darted forward exceptionally fast in the pouring rain. "Use gust and knock that big into next week!" Jakeon closed the distance between them and wriggled its body and fins to whip up the wind. A second later, said wind slammed into the wimpod and sent him tumbling back. Almost, but NOT QUITE enough to cause him to wimp out and retreat into his ball. Which meant when the opportunity struck, he got sand into the pretty fish's eyes. "Jakey will totally beat up that bug into next week! It doesn't stand a chance against his powerful flying type attacks!" Maybe it was a little early to gloat, but you had to count your victories when you could in situations that were weighted entirely out of your favor.

Even with the rather unfavorable outcome of the most recent round of battle, Shinya was honestly impressed with Wimpod's performance once again. The green-haired Alolan thought for sure one Gust attack would be enough to trigger Wimpod's ability and send him running back to his Pokeball, but he withstood it and lowered the aquatic Pokemon's accuracy to boot. As a result, Shinya found himself grinning and laughing yet again, holding Wimpod's Pokeball out towards him as he addressed the Turn Tail Pokemon. "HA! Okay, I'll admit, that was quite possibly your finest work so far, Wimpod. I never expected that outta ya. You've earned your break. Well done. Someone else will take it from here. And I know the perfect bug for the job." Shinya finally called Wimpod back to his Pokeball, but not before the Bug/Water type breathed a huge sigh of relief and managed to get one more comment in before being transported back inside his safe place. "Oh, thank Arceus!"
With the battle still going on, the Team Skull grunt exchanged Wimpod's Pokeball with a Sport Ball from his bag, then faced the female trainer and addressed her once more. "Nah, I know. Wimpod's not much of a match for your flyin' fish, now, is he? But this bug sure is. Meet the top of the Bug type food chain! My main mon, Scyther!" Tossing the red and white sphere up into the air, it burst open at the exact moment that another bolt of lightning struck nearby, giving the Mantis Pokemon quite the entrance. Unlike the cowardly Wimpod, Scyther was calm and collected, with wits and instincts as sharp as his blades, which he crossed in front of his body, readying himself for battle. "Hmph! I see we'll be having sushi tonight before bed. I shall make us a fitting meal out of this arrogant water-dweller, who dared to bully my teammate." Scyther narrowed his sharp gaze on Jakeon as he spoke, completely unafraid of the Wing Fish Pokemon Swift Swim ability, as well as his super effective Flying type moves.
Wimpod may not have beaten Jakeon in battle, but with Jakeon's eyes now filled with sand, Hanna's chances for victory got that much slimmer. Meanwhile, things were really looking up for Shinya and his team, even with the storm continuing to rage all around them. "Damn right, Scyther! This little girl and her littler fish think they're hot stuff, but nobody's cooler than you are! Now, show 'em that you've got the skills to back it up! Use Brick Break!" As soon as Shinya gave him his orders, Scyther spread his wings and flapped them so rapidly that all the rainwater bounced right off of them. "Understood. I'll split this weakling's skull in two!" The Bug/Flying type then took to the air, flying right over the puddle until he reached Jakeon and raised his right blade high into the air, getting ready to strike. Jakeon may have had the advantage when it came to speed, but unfortunately for him and his trainer, he was no Flying type Pokemon. Which meant that Scyther's attack was probably going to hurt. A lot.

Hanna just watched Shinyu, not sure of what to say or do. He was a very....interesting individual to come across and his battle and raising Pokemon style was certainly something she had never seen before. The way he talked to and treated his Pokemon was very anti-the lessons that they were learning in class. Did he attend school somewhere else that encouraged that behavior? She didn't know, but she wasn't going to waste more time worrying or thinking about it. After all, she had a battle to win! "Fishy Fishy, go on and shoot that mean, nasty bug," she said with a smile, one that was a little more wicked than you would probably expect from someone like her. Despite the sand in his face, Jakeon squinted and fired off a solid water gun, shooting through the rain and nailing the Scyther right in the abdomen. As the water gun moved, it seemed to absorb some of the water from the raining conditions and that helped to increase the power of the attack. Not to be outdone, though, the Scyther retaliated by lifting into the air and zooming across the battlefield. The fish looked up, powerless to move lest he leave his puddle. The blade edge of the Scyther's arm started to glow a light brownish color before the limb came down hard, smacking the Finneon and slamming it into the mud of the bottom of the puddle. Bubbles rose to the surface for a second or two before the fish resurfaced, clearing puddle mud from his body and looking positively livid. How dare someone use his poor puddle against him! Glaring, the fish waited for his trainer to continue the battle. Trainer Battle Weather: Rain [attr="class","qkt-bkgd"] [attr="class","qkt-wild-pkmn"] Jakeon LV 21 HP59% [34/58]

Even with the boost in power Jakeon's Water Gun gained from the heavy rain, Scyther seemed to be more or less unfazed by it, maintaining his composure and sharp glare as he continued to flutter over the puddle. "Really now? Is that the best you can muster, water dweller? I certainly hope not. Otherwise, this battle will end after just two more turns." The Mantis Pokemon said to the Wing Fish Pokemon, very unimpressed with his performance in this battle so far. On the other hand, Shinya couldn't help but notice Hanna's sudden change in facial expressions, as his original goal re-entered his mind. She may have been a bit on the young side, but Shinya ended up joining Team Skull when he was only a few months old. So, why not give it a try?
"Hey, ya know somethin', girl? I see potential in ya. You've got some nice foulness, and your Pokemon ain't too bad neither. I know ya don't know who we are just yet, but once it finally starts sinkin' in, how 'bout ya come join us? There's always a place in Team Skull for anyone who likes causin' trouble for others." The Team Skull grunt kept his smirk as he made the young female an offer, figuring that it was never too early for anyone to get started on the right path in life. Or the wrong path in life, as the case may be. Either way, Shinya was completely serious about his offer, waiting to see what the female trainer's answer would be. All the while, rain and thunder just kept on coming down hard all around the two trainers and their Pokemon, with each bolt getting closer and closer to the battlefield.
Unfortunately for Hanna and Jakeon, even if they made the choice to accept Shinya's offer, the Bug type trainer still had to prove his superiority to the possible new recruits. And, of course, the most effective way to do that would be to win the battle at hand, which was exactly what Shinya planned on doing. "And on that note, I'm feelin' like wrappin' this one up, Scyther! Whether it's wind or water, I know ya can take it! Although, I doubt Charlie the Tuna can handle what you can dish out! Hit 'em with another Brick Break! In fact, make it two!" With his next set of orders given, Scyther raised his right blade up once again, but this time, things were a bit different. At the exact moment Scyther raised his blade, another bolt of lightning struck his blade, empowering it with some very powerful electric energy.
"Rgh!...Well now, isn't this interesting?" Scyther remarked at this literal and metaphorical shocking turn of events, fighting through the pain and taking a moment to admire his new and improved weapon before turning his extra sharp gaze back towards his opponent. "This just isn't your night. Is it, water dweller?" Not wanting to waste this energy, the Bug/Flying type gritted his teeth, gathered his resolve, and went to strike Jakeon down with an electrically charged Brick Break attack. It may have only been for a very brief moment, but Shinya made sure to admire all of this from the ground where he stood for as long as he could, his grin growing in size from the sheer thrill of it all. "Heck yeah! Alright! Only in Team Skull would ya get to see somethin' that awesome! That's my ace for ya!"

"Y-you...." Hanna grit her teeth. "I'm not foul! What kind of jerk says that to a girl like it's a good thing!" Her face flushed a bit. Maybe from embarassment that she'd been seen through. Maybe from frustration that this battle was quickly falling out of hand. "Jakey! Put that overgrown mantis in its place! Use gust again! Meet it blow for blow, and we'll see who ends up on top!" She curled her hands into little fists, chin up, breathing ragged. Jakeon darted forward, faster than fast in this pouring rain, able to dart under those scythes to hit the scyther with tremendous gusts before it could land another blow. But alas, despite it kicking up great gales in this storm, those blades sliced through the wings and carved aching wounds into the fish's side with each blow. It was a one two punch that Jakeon lost... Though scyther wouldn't exactly be free of scratches at the end. Hanna let out a cry, "Jakey! Return." Then she sniffed and stomped a foot. She didn't shout about unfairness, because this brat did win fair and square with his icky bugs. "W-whatever. You won. So take this money and like, totally leave me alone you weirdo." She thrust up her chin and scampered off, vanishing out of sight.

Once more, the female trainer succeeded in making Shinya laugh, as her reaction to his offer got him holding his sides for a good five minutes or so. "Ahahahahahahahah! Woah there! Easy, girl! Don't bite my head off! I'm afraid that I'm rather attached to it! Ahahahahahahahahah!" Bad jokes aside, Shinya once again viewed this matter as a win-win for himself and his goals. If by some chance Hanna accepted his offer and joined Team Skull, then Shinya will have added a brand-new trainer to Team Skull's ranks. And if he failed to recruit her, which did seem to be the case, at least she'd definitely tell her friends about what happened here tonight. Thus, spreading Team Skull's name even further across the Johto region.
Never one to turn down cash, the Alolan trainer accepted his winnings from his opponent, grinning at her and chuckling a little more as he did. "Whatever ya say, girl. Just remember this. The name's Shinya Stinger. Tell your friends that Team Skull did this to ya. Even if we don't cross paths again, I'm sure this won't be the last time you'll see or hear 'bout us." Taking absolutely no offense to the girl's insults, both Shinya and Scyther stood tall now that the battle was over, with Scyther looking especially proud of his latest job well done. To demonstrate his newfound strength, the Mantis Pokemon swung his left blade at a nearby tree in the blink of an eye, causing it to fall to the ground, with Shinya unable to resist the urge to tell "TIMBER!". It looked as though Scyther had learned a new move, adding to the pleasure that both trainer and Pokemon felt at that moment in time.
"Slash, huh? Good on ya, Scyther. Must mean you're close to evolvin'. That fool Bugsy won't know what hit 'em." The Team Skull grunt commented on his partner Pokemon's growth, even more excited for their upcoming gym battle against the Azalea Town gym leader. "You flatter me, boss. My task here is complete, but I believe it would be in our best interest to find a safe place to rest for the remainder of the night." Scyther spoke to his trainer in a calm and collected tone of voice, with his blades crossed in front of his body during every word. "Yeah, I guess so. That's enough damage for one night. Take it easy, Scyther. Nice work, pal." After calling Scyther back to his Sport Ball, Shinya found himself a nice, dry spot under some trees, made himself comfortable, but had a little trouble falling asleep, far too excited to show Bugsy the true meaning of "destruction" for such a thing to come easily.
OOC: I'll have Scyther learn Slash and forget Focus Energy. Thanks.
