It was a cold and rather dreary morning, The drops of rain, clattered loudly against the tents roof. Sadly the sun hadn't even shown its face yet. forecasts seemed to not have been so dependable today. But nothing could break Finny her great spirits! She finally left house, met a trusted partner. She was very excited and rather nervous at the same tinme. Finny sighed as she looked at the squirtle, Retreated in to it's shell, taking up most of her bed. The boy was a dependable turtle. happily dragging her along and protecting her where he could. Sometimes this would start some issues, but so far it had been a rather pleasant journey. It's been about 3 days since the faithful day where she met Bubbles.
-- Flashback to inside the lab 2 days ago--
The introductions were over, she was finally going to meet her own Pokémon in just a minute, The choice of partner was a really hard one. But out all of the ones there, her eyes had fallen on a dependable Squirtle that stood out for her the moment she was introduced to some of the Pokémon. This particular turtle tried to paint it's shell to stand out. Was very polite and almost gentleman like and seemed to be interested in Finny as well. It had it's onw opinion and seemed to think it was important to get stronger as it always kept training and picking fights. While the professor was suggesting her a Pokémon with a somewhat more of a relaxed personality. Finny smiled at that suggestion. She needed someone to help her get out there, she wasn't exactly the most courageous, so seeing this Squirtle wanting to take the lead, she happily would see where things would lead. The Pokémon and her trainer gave each other high fives, and continued together, as they set off towards their first journey
--
The two were quickly getting used to each other, Finny knew that belly bribery was a very good strategy to keep Bubbles happy. As the sleepy turtle continued it's beauty sleep, Finny decided to start preparing the sun met her eyes brightly as she looked up, just climbing out of her tent, equipped with a camping style single stove. She made some nice pancakes, which she garnished with fresh fruits and some cream. Luckily she was well stocked for now, but the idea of being stuck alone at night with dwindling stocks and not knowing where she'd be supposed to go gave her a lot of anxiety. She stood there, a little frozen as she forgot about the pancakes. A slight charry smell was coming from them, they weren't even burning yet. Outside from the tent, a well rested Squirtle emerged. Smelling fire he was about to put out a fire. Finny giggled " careful bubbles, you are distinguishing our Pancakes for breakfast dream, Look its barely a little charred " she said, she was very proud they weren't completely burned, yet some might not be happy. " The stove cooks a lot faster than the one at home. But I'll be sure to give you the best ones" She happily exclaimed, which had the Squirtle clinging her leg, hoping for her to hurry up on making a next set of pancakes. Bubbles was very excited, seeing the big bowl of blue and raspberries lined up to add on to his pancake. No one was going to take this sweet trainer away from him.
Mod request: Finny is camping, with her Squirtle making pancakes. after which she will continue exploring. I'd love an encounter. either that finds the, or later in her journey! Feel free to be silly and throw something fun at me, im happy to explore the possibilities!

Even through the rain, the smell of pancakes spread through the air in the early morning, a few pidgeys found themselves awakening with rumbling bellies. They sat closely on the branch without moving as they couldn't see where the smell was coming from, and the weather was just too awful to really do much other than sit gloomily. As Bubbles and Finny ate, the sun climbed higher up on the sky and finally broke through the clouds and slowly drove them away so the rain stopped. The birds shook their feathers and began chirping to each other, getting ready for the day. As Finny and Bubbles at some point left their tent, or perhaps packed it down before they went out to explore, the pidgeys realized that it was from here the mouthwatering smell came from. Not that it made them come any closer, they were too skittish from that and stayed in the safety high up in the tree, but they would check out the area for any crumbs the moment they deemed Finny and Bubbles at a safe distance. The two new partners didn't have to explore long before they encountered something, which was a bit out of the ordinary. They heard the voices of kids nearby and soon they stepped into a clearing with a camp. The camp looked much differently than the one they had had themselves though, the tents were medieval, a single simple wooden table was standing near a extinguished campfire around which several logs were placed. A couple of kids were chatting and a older teenager was sipping from a rather modern looking thermos mug, which he clearly tried to keep hidden. All of them were homemade costumes and were painted in the face. "Spin-spi-spi-da!" A voice said and a spinda with a leather belt and some painted green markings in its face stepped forward. "Begone scum, The guard I am and I will not allow any troubles, declare your intent this instant!" It said as it moved to block their entrance to the camp, hands on its hips. A young girl came running over and slapped a hand on top of her head, and kept it there, the spinda shot her a glance and then pretended she wasn't there. "We're roleplaying," She explained in a loud whisper to Finny, "just leave if you don't wanna play along," she reassured with a smile and took her hand off her head and straightened. "By the great Ordi! What have you found Guard Spinda, are they friend or foe?" She then asked in a overly concerned voice. "I was just trying to figure that out myself!" the spinda answered, although the girl wouldn't understand a word, the normal type pointed at Bubbles and for a moment its character dropped as a smile broke out on its face and it winked at him, then it looked serious once more, "speak!"![](https://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/bw/spinda.png) Spinda [Lv 4] is "defending" its "camp" from intruders. Do you want to be "aggressive" and show ill intent, or do you want to try befriend them? Or whatever else you come up with.

As the rain had set, and the sun had broken through the weather itself was rather pleasant. Rays of light were fighting their way through the tree tops, creating small beams of light that formed a spectacle of colours, reflecting from the small pools of water laying about the muddy forest. Finny smiled happily as she tracked through the forest, thinking on how her journey had really started. It felt unreal, weird and new, yet the most prevalent emotion were excitement and happiness. Albeit her nerves that might have taken the better of her if it wasn't for her new partner. The somewhat silly squirtle that happily walked besides her. The two seemed to be walking in a nice pace. Bubbles was hopping over tree stumps and just exploring as it's trainer let it enjoy the new sights it was beholding.
As the pair continued through the forest, there was an open area, with a rudimentary camp set up. It was a sight to behold as kids that were dressed up, accompanied by a small dizzy Pokemon that immediately reacted to her. It didn't seem all too happy she entered the area, and a teen boy spoke in a weird manner. Quickly a young girl approached and shared that it was cosplay, and she could move on if she didn't want to deal with this. Now that she knew what to do she gave the Spinda and it's friend her bestn attempt at a somewhat smug smile.
" Pardon me for my intrusion, I am but a humble traveller that chanced upon thine magnificent abode " She said as she bowed gracefully. Acting as if she was in a play from a famous stagewriter. " I'd consider myself a friend oh humble Spinda" She said with a gentle smile as she looked at her friend Bubbles. The Squirtle considered itself an artist, an actor, a creative. He was born for this situation. He looked at the Spinda, addressing the water type personally. " We are not here to cause trouble " Bubbles would answer. Bubbles tried to extend its paw to shake it with the Spinda but was on guard. ""there is no reason to be hostile, but if you want a fight, I'll take you on" Squirtle would say as it took on a pose. Surprising Finny, but she tried to difuse the situation.
Finny would lie if she didn't want to take the Spinda along, she didn't know if it was they boys Pokemon, but such a cute dizzy friend was one she couldn't resist at least trying to catch, if it wanted to come along of course. " oh would you please tell me, is this Spinda your Pokemon? It seems like a very fun friend " She'd share with a gentle smile as she popped out her Pokedex to gain a little bit more information about the Spinda. " Would you let these humble travellers rest their legs at your abode? My name is Finny and this here is Bubbles " She'd ask as she hoped this was enough of an excuse to stay here for a little, to learn about this Pokemon and see if she'd have a chance to become its trainer. Squirtle looked at his trainer, wasn't sure about this Spinda, it seemed ready to fight earlier.

The young girl looked around and said softly, once more out of character for Finny and Bubbles to hear, "It's not my pokemon. I'm too young to have my own. At least that's what mom says. But it's really friendly and loves to play. So we're playing! I think it would probably love to have a real trainer, though...since it seems to hang around people a lot." She then composed her features back into the upmost seriousness for the act. "Oh great Guard Spinda, they claim not to be foes but they stand their ground to fight. Whatever shall we do?" The little spinda in its green face paint waved a paw at Finny and bubbles, then swayed a bit to pick up a stick and wave that too, like a general giving a command. The girl's face was somber as she nodded, "I see. To war then." <I don't trust any of them. They are trespassers and could be lying. If they best us in battle, then perhaps I will hear them out.> The [LV 4] Spinda Guard is ready for battle! En guard! What will you do?

As the kind girl told her that the spinda was more like a friend, she was too young to have her own Pokemon, but Spinda was way too friendly and spun around all day making friends wherever it would go. Which was really cute, yet the girl stated it could probably use their own trainer. Finny smiled, well it seems like a friendly little Pokémon and Bubbles will probably get along with them. She looked at them for a second, but for some reason the boy wasn't too happy with them. And spinda suddenly got ready for combat, a stick got picked up and the camp that once was a zone of fun, had turned in to one where battles were held. The late teen felt rather conflicted, she wasn't sure on if combat was the right way to go about this. Yet apparently it was the easiest to fight the Pokemon before trying to catch it. Part of the logic was like rocket science to the girl, yet she was going to try if it really worked.
Finny gritted her teeth. She didn't do much battle before, she wasn't sure they'd do great. But she did some research about squirtles, and the two seemed to be ready to show the Spinda how strong and serious they are. " Well Spinda, I'll show you how dependable we are, Bubbles use a water gun " She'd yell out as the Squirtle had jumped in to a bit of a defensive stance, immediately after firing off a water gun, aiming at the spinda. The little bear like Pokémon was rather excited to fight, and Squirtle was bracing for combat, its tiny claws ready to intercept hits while it's shell was ready to use as a deflective shield. Bubbles had a serious look on his face, so did she. The turtles water gun seemed to be rather strong, but was it enough? the dizzy Pokemon wanted to fight, and Finny wasn't planning to back down either.

The small spot panda’s feet wobbled across the grassy ground. It rocked with an odd gait, its attention turned on Finny and her companion. The kids loved the game, with one already picking up a bunch of rocks and trying to tie them to a stick. Most of the sticks he used were too small and would snap into pieces from the added weight, causing the young child to grunt and groan in exasperation underneath his voice. “I almost have my sword and shield….hang on…” He muttered. The kid then stood up proudly after he managed to get it to stay on a sturdy branch. A ‘sword’ made of a stick with a rock tied to the top using a bit of vine as a rope. And a ‘shield’ made of old stick and vines woven together to hide his body. The shield was very crudely put together, with large holes within the armor where there wasn’t enough vine or sticks, but the child felt proud, nonetheless. “Great Guard Spinda! Please, allow us to defend you from any foe!” Spinda kept its gaze firmly on Finny and Bubbles, however. It rushed after Bubbles, head lowered to protect itself neck, and slammed into the other Pokemon’s shoulder with its skull. “You shall stand no chance against my charges and myself! Face me, Bubbles the Fearsome, and show me what you’re capable of!” It roared. Bubble spun around in the same instant and splashed Spinda in the face with a powerful blast of water. It caused the bear to break away, teetering on its legs as it did. “Good one, but not good enough!” It warned with a laugh.

Finny got a little nervous as she saw the boy pick up sticks and stones trying to make a weapon. She hoped that he didn't want to fight her, or was going to hurt her squirtle. She looked at the girl that was a lot more friendly than the boy and whispered to her nervously " You don't mean he's going to really hit me or squirtle right?" she asked as she looked at the spinda fighting bubbles. It was rather intense. She was a little nervous to be honest, but the water gun was rather effective, it didn't stop the squirtle from getting a beating.
" are you okay Bubbles?" finny asked in a worried tone. The squirtle responded with a confident smirk as it took the attack head on and was ready to reteliate with another attack. " let's do another water gun, aim at it's face " She'd respond with an excited tone hoping that bubbles would connect once again.
The Squirtle listened bravely, he got ready to release another big burst of water. It waited a little for Spinda to come closer, as it was right there to hit him again he released the water gun, hoping to catch it off guard. " Your strong " Squirtle would tell the Spinda as it was trying to catch it's breathe after the water gun.
He didn't want Finny to know, but this was his first battle too. He was more interested in eating, pretty spots to sunbathe and adventure than combat. Yet seeing his new friend in trouble, he wanted to make sure the spinda wouldn't beat him. It was personal after all, he wanted to be able to show his trainer he was dependable.
Finny her eyes kept hopping from the battle to the kid with the stick. She quickly rummaged through her backpack and prepared an empty Pokeball. She didn't do anything with it yet, but showed it to the kid and the Spinda. " Hey Spinda, if we win, why don't you come on an adventure with us" She'd exclaim with a bit of an awkward smile as she hoped the dizzy spinny bear would be okay with that deal.

The young girl looked up at Finny and to the young boy. He was busily swinging his new weapon in the air, shouting about defending the Great Guard Spinda. She gently tapped him on the shoulder, causing the young boy to stop and place his toys beside him for a second. “Remember not to hit anyone for real, ok?” The young boy nodded, and turned to Finny as though to ease her concerns. “I’ll just strike the air near you and be real careful, ok?” He asked her, with a wide smile and pleading eyes. Then they would begin the battle alongside Spinda, with the boy swinging the makeshift weapon up high and being sure not to hit Finny with them. “Take that! Are you here to help Bubbles the Fearsome steal our inventories?! We won’t allow you!” He giggled, taking a rather heroic stance in front of the campsite. He’d wait a second, to see how Finny would react. If she gave into play with him, the young boy would continue swinging his ‘blade’ towards her while shouting out similar phrases. “You shall never win against our mighty team!”Spinda turned to Bubbles with a wide smile. “Thank you!” It nodded towards Bubbles, brushing off the dirt and debris from its knees. The gentle breeze brought with it a sweet scent, like grass being cut mixed with gentle jasmines. It rushed towards Bubbles with a loud battle cry, slamming into the other Pokemon’s side with all its might. In retaliation, Bubbles smacked Spinda in the face with a powerful blast of water that caused Spinda to shake its head profusely. Ouch! “That was a pretty good shot, you know, Bubbles the Fearsome! First defeat me in combat, then perhaps I'll hear you out about travel to other foreign lands!” Spinda giggled.

" That's a relief " She muttered under her breathe, watching the boy swing around his weapon dangerously, her hand gripping the pokeball tightly. Watching the young girl help her at least keep the somewhat unpredictable teen in check made her feel a little more comfortable about this situation. She nervously sighed as she watched him swing around the weapon, hoping no one was going to get hurt. Yet she knew she had no time to worry about the teen, she had to worry about her water turtles fight with the dizzy Pokemon. As the fight continued and both of the Pokemon had taken some hits, she nervously looked at bubbles, wondering if they could win and should give up on the idea of fighting.
Bubbles wasn't ready to throw in the towel, it was his chance to show his trainer how strong he was. His previously fired water gun didn't do as much as he had hoped, while the Spindas tackles were starting to hurt. " let's use tackle this time " Finny shouted, and the squirtle was thinking the same thing. It looked back at it's trainer briefly and nodded before ramming himself in to the spinda. It took a little time to charge at his opponent trying to ram his heavy shield and body in to the spinny Pokemons body. He knew it wasn't going to be enough, but bubbles wasn't giving up here.
Meanwhile the boy kept yelling at them, how they weren't going to take down their mighty team. Finny was too nervous to reply and chuckled instead. These people liked Spinda, but also knew an adventure would do the spinnybear well. A friend for life maybe even better. The adrenaline was surging through both trainer and pokemon, something either of them ever felt. They both wanted to continue as to not disappoint their new friend.
" IF I am bubbles the fearsome, then what do I call you?" Bubbles asked the Spinda confidently. trying to take it's new title with pride. He never thought of himself as scary, some of the squirtles he grew up with were more deserving of that title, but he wasn't going to say he didn't like it. The water turtle smirked confidently after hearing his shot was a good one, and hoped his tackle was also going to impress the Spinda. " let's see who has the best endurance " it shared confidently bracing for the Spinda's next attack. He was already covered in mud, dirt and bruises but had a lot of energy left to win this fight.

At first the encounter at the edge of the camp hadn't attracted any attention of the ones in the camp, it was early morning and they had been sleeping out here, and had been woken up in the middle of the night by a "group of theives", some of the others who were a part of the LARP, and had had to get up to defend themselves. It had been awesome and fun, but of course it meant some of them were rather tired now. The shouting of the young boy caught the attention of the teenager, and his eyes widened in horror when he saw what was happening. He dropped his Thermo mug and rushed over. The young boy jumped shocked when the teen suddenly grasped his arm, and the kid looked like he was about to cry. "Don't do that!" the teen hissed and then composed himself to look airily at the young boy who was sniffling. "Squire Lucas, the time as come for your knight training, please make yourself ready and meet me by the Great Oak!" The kid forgot all about his sadness and lit up excited. "YESS! Imma be the best knight and I'm going to fight a dragon!" He shouted and ran towards the tent, the teen sighed and pinched his nose. "I'm sorry, he's surely too young but his parents don't understand the different between live roleplay and playing cobs and robbers," he shook his head and grumbled "he's going to destroy the fun for everyone else."He looked at the two and the pokemon battle and then waved them off, "continue," and strolled back to the camp where he began to shout out orders of tasks which needed to be done. The rest of the few members, younger than the teen but several years older than Lucas, soon rushed around to handle the tasks. "Right.." the young girl said awkwardly, she was about 12 years old. "Well.." she began as she tried to get the roleplay going after that disruption, but she wasn't so skilled at it yet. "So.. where are you traveling to? ..for?" she stammered and fidgeted a bit. The spinda was completely unfaced by the short interruption, it wasn't the first time this wild pokemon had joined the group which LARP'ed in this area, it was welcome as not all pokemon could figure out what it was all about. Until now the spinda had returned to the wild each time the sessions were over as it hadn't had any reasons to join any of the kids. It liked how quick Finny and Bubbles had been to jump into the game and play along, most adults would just stare as if they were crazy and leave. "Why Sir, haven't you been listening? I'm Guard the spinda! I guard the grounds and my partners from any harm," it said with a grin, "just as I'm guarding them from you, or am I testing you? To see if you are trustworthy to enter my camp and not cause any trouble."With that it ran forward and Bubbles readied himself, but just before the impact, Guard the Spinda suddenly stumbled to the right and then to the left, slamming into Bubbles side and sending him to the ground. "Looks like you won't be a threat to the camp after all," it taunted teasingly with its hands on its hips. The squirtle got to his feet easily enough and then retaliated with surprisingly force which sent the normal type flailing to the ground. Had Bubbles seen a weak spot in Spinda's defense, or was he just stronger than he thought he was? Guard the Spinda, sat up a bit dazed. "That's one way to get someone to eat their own words!" It declared and guffawed. Wild Encounter Weather: Clear [attr="class","qkt-bkgd"] [attr="class","qkt-wild-pkmn"] Spinda LV 4 HP 5% [1/20]
