One more time [F]

[The REAL Joey]

Recently Joey had taken to sitting in the back seat where Narcissa was concerned. Despite her minute size she was a hefty handful and he figured the easiest route to getting on with her was to let her do as she pleased. Figuring the Mega Drain might very well have finished off the wiggling Weedle, Joey was somewhat amused to see it hadn't and the Pokemon was still raring to go with its suction pad type feet bobbling about in every which way. Narcissa was fuming once more, almost to the point of spontaneous combustion. If this persisted she'd end up burning herself to a cinder from all her rage. "Hey Narcissa!" Joey interjected; it was time to reign this back in. "If you keep frowning with a face like that of a slapped arse you can't exactly call yourself the most beautiful thing to exist, right?" He smirked under his breath realising this was the only way to knock some sense into her agitated little brain.

"Use yer head and think! You have more than just a draining attack at your disposal! How about you use some of those paralytic spores on the opponent? That way they'll slow to a crawl and will simply have to take in and appreciate your gorgeous appearance." He bit his lip slightly and tried to stop himself from laughing. This was the most ridiculous way of getting your own Pokemon to do something but seeing as it was working he figured it wasn't so bad. Stroking your Pokemon's ego to make it attack... She was something else alright. Narcissa seemed to heed Joe's words and jumped forward, shaking its tiny body as it began loosing a number of spores in the air, they drifted about and slowly floated their way over to the Weedle in an attempt to cover him head to toe and paralyse the poor caterpillar. At this point Joey had also taken off his bandanna and used it to stop any rogue spores from entering his lungs. He had it happen once before and he wasn't going to allow it to happen again. He had learnt his lesson.

[Morrigan]

Witnessing the Budew beginning to shake it's little green body from side to side seemed to put the groove back into Weedle. The silly bug didn't realise that she was infact using an attack and instantly he thought she was finally starting to get her own groove on. Taking a pause from the battle he began wriggling himself about, heightening his body and lowering it again in time with Narcissa. It took him a while but the unaware Weedle began to notice little yellow specs floating around them. At first he thought they were perhaps disco lights or something ridiculous, that was until his own body began to slow down. His facial expression fell into a state of panic as the Budew in front of him continued to dance. Why couldn't he move?!

[The REAL Joey]

The expression on Narcissa's face was completely terrifying. Despite her smaller size than the rest of Joey's Pokemon and the Weedle she seemed to grow to a mountainous height with a most evilly cruel smile. Even Joey, a rough and wild biker who had been in a fair few fights of his own couldn't help but feel intimidated. Narcissa was absolutely bonkers! The self indulgent bud began chirping evilly as if it was cackling to itself and it looked to the Weedle with absolute malice. Now that it wasn't able to wriggle about so much perhaps she could finally swat it out of its miserably ugly existence. She began tumbling forward when Joey coughed abruptly. Falling flat on her face, she ungracefully stood back up and turned to see what the lumox of a man wanted.

It let out a shrilling chirp and frowned. "Sorry Narse, goin' to capture this one too. I remember my time as a kid when i'd see these on the trees eating leaves. Stand back now!!" Narcissa couldn't believe her eyes, the cheek of this trainer! She hmphed to herself and moved to the sidelines. In a way it saved her a lot of trouble as too much battling would wilt her flawlessly good looks. Joey activated the safety lock on the unused Pokeball and with a decisive throw, channelled the Weedle into the Pokeball!

OOC: Pokeballs used: X1

[Morrigan]

The poor, poor Weedle. It was paralyzed stiffly on the spot and was faced with a rather terrifying sight of this bud laughing crazily in front of him. She hadn't gotten her groove on what so ever! It was a shame to him, she was such a pretty creature and could appear even more beautiful with more of a cheerful spring in her step. Instead, she just came across as constantly angrily. Frowns can cause some ugly wrinkles. Something suddenly tapped on it's head but unfortunately, it was still unable to move. The disco king Weedle was no more.

These past few encounters had given Narcissa a nice amount of bonding time with her trainer, Joe. Sure, he came out with sarcastic comments a lot, teased her with berries and forced her to fight the most ugliest Pokemon she had ever seen. But he often praised her aswell. I mean, why wouldnt anyone praise such a beautiful creature like herself? Either way, her previous tantrums had come to a halt and was replaced with a rather sweet smile. With the corners of her lips curling upward, the bud on the top of her head began to twitch, her entire body suddenly starting to glow.

Narcissa grew a single level from battling the disco Weedle. She is now Level 17 !!
Narcissa gains +2 Happiness !!
Narcissa is slowly being engulfed by a white light !!
Would Joe like to stop her or sit back and watch?

OOC: Taken Pokeball, added happiness and added level.

[The REAL Joey]

Another battle, another capture. Although Joe considered himself a competent fighter he was more of a Pokemon capture artist than anything. He could just picture his PC Box full of Pokemon bursting at the seams with all the Pokemon he had obtained. "Guess I am a thief too. I can remember tales of these legendary thieves who hoarded enough treasure t'fill up a cave back when I was a nipper." He pocketed the ball away ready for transport and then brushed himself down. After Narcissa had unleashed her stun spore, a few of the spores had clung to Joey's jacket. With them now gone he turned to congratulate her on another battle. What he was greeted with instead was something he had not been predicting in the slightest. There was Narcissa now gleaming with an extraordinary light. "H-Huh?! You ain't about to Solarbeam me are ya?" He peered his head in closer and realised she was evolving. "Woah... No way, i've been training her for ages and was beginning to think she'd be stuck for-" At that point a blinding light burst from the small bud and her appearance began shifting. Joey had to end up shielding his eyes but as the brightness died down he was greeted with an entirely different Pokemon! As opposed to what she was before, the new Narcissa stood there proudly, she was much taller and now resembled that of a flower and had two roses on her hand.

Joey gawked at her evolutionary change and couldn't quite get over it. At that pointed Narcissa merely put a hand on her hip, pointed a rose to Joey and chirped out some highly strung command. Breaking out of his silence, Joey laughed to himself and shook his head from side to side. "Same ol' Narcissa, same ol'..." He picked up the berry he promised to feed her and watched as she gulped down all of it without much problem. "Guess you where hungry, huh? Wow, look at you." He smiled and patted her on the head. "I bet my mum would love you. She's a huge fan of roses." Narcissa placed a rose hand under her chin and titled her head to the side deep in thought. Is it possible this lummox of a man had a mother that would be her most adoring fan?! Perhaps hanging around with this oaf was worthwhile after all.

Joey tucked out his arms and stretched tiredly. "What a long day... Still so much more to do though." He looked to some of the Pokemon he had on his team and realised they still needed a good amount of training themselves. "Hm... Let's see... Vlad. Why don't we train you up some?" He sent forth his agile bat Pokemon and smiled at its appearance. "How about we have you face something of you're own choosin'?" He pointed out to the verdant green route and the sky above it and nodded. "Go have a flutter round and see what you can find." Vlad shrieked and with a flap of its wings began in earnest for a worthy opponent.

OOC:

I'll update Narcissa and Travolta myself. I know I hit five pages but surprise me with a random Pokemon.


Weedle
Name: Travolta
Gender: Male
Level: 8
Attacks: Poison Sting, String Shot
Ability: Shield Dust
Nature/Personality: If there is anything that can be said about this Pokemon is that it can't help dancing whenever it is given the chance. Even from an early stage in its life as a Weedle, Travolta couldn't help but jive along to the sound of an imaginary beat in his head. Since then he's learnt some seriously smooth moves.

[Morrigan]

With the newest member of Joe's team feeling rather pleased with herself, the now beautifully bloomed rose was allowed some well deserved rest. Being placed in the back lines, Joe selected his next choice, Vlad the Zubat. Despite being pretty much blind, his other senses were nothing to shake a stick at making him more than capable to find a worthy opponent. Taking to the air, he began to flutter around. In the distance he could sense something quite large heading his way.

Nervously fluttering downward, those with eyes were able to see a rather spectacular sight. A flock of ten or so Hoppip were floating along the air carefreely, letting the winds blow them all in the same direction. Happy and excited expressions were plastered across their faces, obviously the most simple things in life, such as floating through the air, made them happy.

Being faced with this rather relaxing distraction, neither Joe nor Vlad noticed the super speedy blur which was shooting towards them. Or atleast, by the time Vlad heard the flapping of wings it was far too late. The blue blurr zoomed straight through the flock of Hoppip, sending them into a fit of cries as they were blown off course due to the lightness of their bodies. As the blur circled back around to take another swoop, Vlad decided to intervene. It seems he had found his sparring partner.

Another Taillow (Level 8) has appeared and would like to battle !!

[The REAL Joey]

"What an excitable turn of events! I wonder how Vlad will deal with this." Joe couldn't help but think back to when his own Zubat had punctured his neck and drained him of some blood. "He's bit of a rascal." Seeing as both opponents in the battle were both airborne it meant that they would have far much more space to manoeuvre about in. Vlad was fluttering determinedly on the spot and the way this Taillow soared through the air proved it was no slouch either. "Hey Vlad!" Joey yelled out, cupping his hands around his mouth so that Vlad could hear him better. "Let's get things started! Close in on him and Bite down hard!" Raising his hand flatly over his eyes to protect him from the sun, he looked onwards as the battle took shape.

[Morrigan]

Vlad didn't necessarily need the confirmation of what attack to use from Joe but he nodded in agreement anyway. Swooping towards the speedily Taillow, Vlad was able to stop it before the blue bird was able to take another dive bomb at the innocent Hoppip. Widening his jaw, Vlad made a blind attempt of grappling the bird midair and it worked without fail. With the Taillow squawking painfully in Vlad's grasp, the flustered and surprised band of once merry Hoppip's made their escape in the breeze.

Tossing the bird to one side effortlessly, the injured Taillow fell like a comet to the grassy floor below. Staggering to it's feet almost instantly, the Taillow gave Vlad a deathly gaze, patches of feathers had been plucked out from it's body. Weakly flapping it's wings, the Taillow was able to take flight. Just barely. Pushing it's wings backwards to give it more of a streamline swoop, the Taillow lifted it's beak and began jabbing it harshly against Vlad's head. Except it felt more like an annoying tickle to the purple bat.

The dogfight in mind air was certainly something spectacular to watch. Both Pokemon were adept at flying in the air and both seemed determined to best the other. The only problem for the Taillow was the fact Vlad had far more experience on his side meaning the attempts by the swallow Pokemon were at best nothing more than a joke to it. Vlad's sharp fangs however were quite the opposite and had already shown just what they could do. This was going to be another easy battle for Joe who was still trying to keep the sun from shining in on his eyes. "G'dammit, times like these and you need a pair o' shades." With the two now encircling one another in the air, Joey yelled out a change of plans. "Vlad! Try somethin' different! Leech Life!" Vlad cackled at the command. Oh how it had waited to sink its teeth in and savour the life-force of another being.

[Morrigan]

Both Vlad and the Taillow continued to circle around each other in the air, each of them occasionally taking the random swoop into the other as a warning to back off. The Taillow was known in the area to be a speedy bugger, often finding it hilarious to swoop in on picnics to steal any foods or disrupt bands of pokemon who were just enjoying themselves, like the Hoppips earlier. He had never once been in such a battle were the opponent had the upper hand.

A bit worried that another suffocating bite like the one before would finish him off, the Taillow decided to speed up his act. Not hearing Joe's command through the sound of the wind, the feather creature tried his best to land a painful Peck. At first he tried to aim for the bats wings but as soon as his beak touched, a rather uncomfortable feeling spread throughout his body. The feeling of Vlad's fangs sinking deeper into his feathers caused the bird to roll his eyes back in his sockets. His wings were feeling much heavier all of a sudden and was finding it difficult to remain airborne.

In comparison to the chubby Taillow Joey had obtained earlier that he nicknamed Slim, this Taillow was a completely different beast altogether. Slim was food obsessed and only seem motivated on the promise of food but this other Taillow, it had its own different agenda entirely. The two flying Pokemon both clashed climatically but it seemed Leech Life was a little too underwhelming to guarantee the Taillow for capture. Joey gritted his teeth and began thinking what to do next. "After all this capturin' i'm running low on balls... I'd hate to waste one here. Hm...!" If another Leech Life was repeated it may just be the opening they were looking for. Shouting out again, Joey commanded his order. "VLAD! Leech Life, pronto!" Vlad's teeth flared as he received the order. Without much delay he glided forward and went in for the bloodsucking bite. Joey was still trying to enjoy the aerial dogfight but the sun seemed to be getting brighter with every passing minute. "Figures, this couldn't happen in a cave or indoors or anything. It WOULD be outside with the sun beaming all happy like."

[Morrigan]

The blazing sun soon became less of a problem as Taillow launched it's next attack. With Vlad swooping in for the kill, the Taillow decided to use the remainder of it's energy to hit the blood sucking bat right where it hurts. As the bat bared it's fangs, the Taillow dived to once side at a blinding rate, circling around Vlad before moving higher into the air. Now fluttering above the Zubat, Taillow narrowed it's wings and began it's flight downwards. Bringing Vlad with it. As the duo fell from the sky, Taillow relinquished it's tight grip just before hitting the floor.

A small cloud of dust rose from the dirt path but it was only a mere few seconds afterward that the enraged bat flew back into the air. With Taillow hovering just a feet feet off the ground close by, he flung his body forward and began sinking his teeth into the bird once more, leaving yet another pair of bite marks.

Joey observed what he could of Vlad and noticed he had put on a few pounds. "I can only guess why..." Mused Joey. "I bet the bat's had one few too many Leech Life attacks. Must've sucked up enough blood to last him a week." Vlad was indeed flying a lot more ungracefully than before, its flapping was becoming haggard and was having trouble staying aloft in the air. His eyes shifted to the Taillow who was flying a lot more elegantly in juxtaposition. "I'd say this flyer is ready to be grounded." He pulled out another Pokeball from his now low supply and did his best to line up a shot. "G'dammit... Note to self: Go out capturing at night. Blasted sun." Having cursed at the blinding sun in the sky for the last time, he threw the Pokeball upwards with great momentum and couldn't quite tell if the Pokeball had ensnared the fast flying Taillow.

OOC:

x1 Pokeball used

I'm gonna have to stock up lol. ;D

[Morrigan]

After having it's blood sucked yet again, the Taillow began flapping it's wings weakly to the ground, perching itself on the path. The heavy breathing and paleness of his beak suggested that he was on his last legs due to all this blood loss. It's eyes were also narrowing slowly but surely. Either way, this once speedy fellow sure had the life sucked out of it and was barely able to carry on. With it's eyes trying to focus clearly on the flapping Zubat, it didn't notice Joe preparing a Pokeball. With a clear toss, it donked the bird on the head and began to shake.

Wobble. Wobble. Wobble. TING~

It was still too bright and the ball hadn't fallen yet from the sky. He removed his hand that was giving him shade and shook his head as he shrugged. "Eh, must've ball parked it." Just then, the Pokeball he had flung up to capture landed on his head with a heavy donk and left him reeling from the shock. "Yeeeowch! T'hell's that?!" He rubbed his head which now felt rather sore from being concussed by the effects of gravity. "Urgggh... You've been a lot of trouble you." He picked it up off the ground, still feeling slightly groggy from the blow. "Bloody balls." He remarked as he stashed it away in his belt pouch. "Right, Vlad, good job and return for now." The bloated bloodsucker retreated back to the confines of his Pokeball and Joey thought of what to do next. "Hm, Dante could do with a bit of-" He was abruptly bought to a stop, another feathery friend flew over him and he looked to see what it was.

This was different from the last Taillow who flew ever so high up in the air, this bird flew a lot closer to the ground. Joey raised an eyebrow as he tried to hone in on it. It was something he had never come across before. "This route has more birds in it than a bird feeder." Thinking this opponent would be a good enough match for Dante's level of skill, he tossed forth the ghoulish trickster. It made itself visible and waggled its tongue around cheekly, cackling that it could now have a chance to fight. Joey grinned at its enthusiasm and pointed to the unusual bird. "Dante, put it to sleep with Hypnosis!" His ghost complied and began concentrating its eyes to lock in with the Starly.
