ooc: adrenaline orb then acid on SOS summon position

Narctar spotted a Paras in the distance, and groaned as it wasn't those happy celebratory Shroomish. He fired a series of Bullet Seeds at the possessed insect. Even though the sun was blazing out, that did not stop Narctar's energy, in fact, the weather energized him. "Why not? The past was the past, but you can change the present and the future!" He raised his arms up, joining the cause of the Deerling's idea to revolutionize the Mushroom Kingdom.

"Watch out!" Penelope simply called, and then tossed the all-familiar blue orb that exploded in a smoke and poof. The Bellsprout could tell that someone was approaching, and used this chance to speak of his idea. "One day, those flying Pokemon will come for all of us grass types, and we'll need to be prepared to defend against them! The more numbers you have, the better!" He spoke loudly, trying to start a convincing case, but he wasn't sure if these Paras would listen.

Paras pulled up small mushrooms and began stacking them carefully to the side. It needed a clear path to rush after this tyrant who insisted to know so much without knowing anything about their Kingdom. There would be retribution. “They had stolen our goods, tried to steal our lands, and called us useless and worthless! Why would we ever work with them!?” Paras demanded, screaming into the wild blue wonder for its companions to come and help it in this fight.

Soon enough, another small Paras appeared, rushing through the tall grasses to plop down near its friend’s side. Freedom was on the line and it was here to answer the call. “Who is challenging us today?! Not another Foongus, I hope!” It turned and narrowed its eyes on Narctar, who spat burning acid in its face and caused it to scream and thrash about in pain. “Oh no, I actually forgot I left the sunlight on back at home and it’s gunna cook the mushrooms too much. I gotta go!” It screamed and ran off into the distance.

Another Pokemon hopped along, oblivious and cheerful as Paras used all the strength it could to zap a little health from Narctar and heal itself. The sun was bright and burning, making the wild cactus feel absolutely delightful in the dense woodlands. But man, could they maybe…clear the trees a little? It was hard to feel the wonderful sun’s rays with all this shade everywhere! “Oh…excuse me gentlemon.” Maractus spoke politely and bowed. “I didn’t mean to interrupt your fight…”

"And the solution to that is endless war on top of that? How had that been working out?" The Bellsprout replied, putting his branches on his "hip". After the original Paras screamed for reinforcement, another one came up. However, thanked to Narctar's acid, the duo type quickly crawled away, remembering that there was something else even more important than the threat of possible Foongus.

It was then, at that moment, a strange Pokemon that wasn't associated with mushrooms appeared. "Not now, I am trying to have an important discussion with the Paras!" The grass and poison type briefly looked at the Maractus, only to approach the Paras to try to talk it out. "You guys can work together for resources, and also work together to build resources against enemies like flying and bug type Pokemon. Why do you not want allies?" He asked up close, but may have accidentally spit some Acid at the young Paras as he provided examples of diplomatic benefits.

Penelope saw the Maractus, but still frowned as this wasn't the special Pokemon she was looking for. However, the Maractus could be a great topic opener. She grabbed a Timer Ball and hurled it at the strange Pokemon, and debated in her head if she should stay in this damp and moist mushroom ground.

ooc:

Paras paused and thought about what Narctar had to say. It was a warrior. It fought and risked its life. It rarely asked how or why – Paras only knew that it should and that it would. “We can’t stand idly by and let them try to take our lands, can we?” Paras asked Narctar, trying to understand the angle he was getting at. “The last time we tried to work with them, they tricked us for all we had. How can we be sure that won’t happen ever again?” It was a novel idea, but not one that Paras could trust.

Paras jumped back as Narctar spat at it. The acid burned it a bit, making the wild bug want to lash out but it didn’t. Instead, it hummed and mulled over the thought more candidly. “Protection of our resources together would help us against those evil bird colonies of the skies.” Paras agreed. It would bow and thank Narctar, before scurrying off to talk these matters over with its ‘king’. “I appreciate you helping me see that there are other ways than just violence. But I cannot make this decision alone. My leader must also agree. Until next time, wise fly trap!” Paras waved, scurrying far off into the distance.

Maractus folded it’s arm-like appendages on its hip and huffed. Narctar was so rude! It spat several seeds all around the strange plant, causing small sprouts to spring up where the seeds landed on the ground. “I said EXCUSE ME! You usually EXCUSE someone after they say that!” Maractus snapped accusingly. “Not be rude to them! I wasn’t trying to interrupt!” Maractus would have gone off and given Narctar a good lecturing too, but Penelope’s Timer Ball zapped it up and kept it contained, instead. Well, maybe next time it met Narctar the Pokemon would give him a piece of its mind?

It'll actually be round 5. 1 from the first encounter, 2 in previous post, 1 for acid, & 1 for Timer Ball Tiki.
