As the Scyther struggled back up onto it's feet after that fearsome leech seeded, it felt it's energy being sapped straight back to Jasmine who wore a confident smirk. Attention taken from Zack, the large mantis needed to finish off this little beast first and she was a feisty one. Despite the level differences, their attacks seemed to be bouncing off one against the other equally. This wasn't Jasmine being weak it was more of the case of Scyther's typing giving him a slight advantage. But once the right time for a Sleep Powder rolled in, then it would be interesting to see how different the tides of fate would turn. Staring the Scyther down and backing it away so to create a bit of safety distance between itself and Zack once again, her ears twitched gently at the sound of his order. She would be quite happy to attack such a ferocious beast who dare try to harm her master.
Rustling the leaves which cushioned the bud on her back, the chunky Ivysaur let out a deep growl, releasing several leaves which span towards the wild Scyther. Narrowing it's eyes, the beast raised his scythes, ready to protect itself from the sharp, slicing attack. Waving it's arms through the air, the Scyther attempted once more to slice through all the spinning leaves, cutting many in half with a single swipe whilst others clashed against it's feet and shoulders. Staggering back the bug soon did it's infamous teleporting move, it's blinding speed causing it to reappear right behind the Ivysaur. As her eyes darted from left to right trying to find the tricky beast, a frantic snort escaped her mouth as a scythe was crossed against her bulb, causing her to roll forward. But luckily, a few stuck on seeds switched into effect. A pained grunt from Scyther emitted as the sapping seeds began to drain it's energy, floating over to Jasmine and instead healing her.

Jasmine was quite delighted with herself thus far, and Zack could not help but be proud of her as well. The trouble was Zack knew Scyther and what it was capable of. Having boosted its Critical chance by double what it normally would be could pose a serious threat to this battle. Zack had to decide what was in his best interest. Should he throw the Pokeball, Put the creature to sleep, or get in one more attack. He could not risk such a rare Pokemon getting away however and that made it plain what he would have to call on next. Use your Sleep Powder Jasmine! Let’s finish this once and for all.
Though Jasmine was disappointed as she wanted to use a more offensive attack once more she bowed to her master’s wishes as the adolescent Ivysaur prepared for her next attack. It was a very tense couple of seconds as the two Pokemon stared each other down. I hope you are ready for this! It was more of a roar then a mere conversation, but Jasmine could not help herself as she had such dislike of the creature.

With how frantic both of these two battlers were going at one another, it was believable that it was easy to forget that this was meant to be a light hearted contest. However, once deadly slaying praying mantises and powerful blooming dinosaurs were thrown into the mix, it became a little warped from its original conception. Still eager to fight on despite the large seeds that had firmly taken root over its body, the Scyther was a truly menacing foe. Holding its ground and flicking its wings almost mockingly as soon as Zack's Ivysaur roared out, it was just as disdainful of her as she was of it. However, with the roar came a startling revelation that would change the course of this battle. Shaking her blooming flower, a beautiful white cloud of spores sprayed out into the air and with a quick spin of her plant's leaves, breezed them towards the aggressive bug. Having already fallen prey to her leech seed, the Scyther was hoping to cut the spore clouds about but then it came to the horrible realisation. The cloud of spores was made up by an immeasurable number of them! Already haven taken an inhalation of them, the Scyther's eyes quickly became groggy and it tried to lash out here and there as it felt itself arguing with its body to stay awake. A mere few seconds later and the Scyther fell flat on its face. It was dead to the world. Wild Battle

Zack saw the opportunity once and for all as the Scyther fell to the ground. True it had not been the pretiest battle, but it was far from the worst. What was more Jasmine with her Leach Seed was still looking as good as ever. He pulled out one of the unique Sport Balls that were being used for this completion it felt cold in Zack’s hand as he narrowed in on the sleeping Scyther. It was clear that Jasmine had done her job, now it was just on him to finish it up. Zack walked up close to Jasmine now as he patted her on the head. Good Job girl. I will take it from here.
Jasmine nuzzled against his leg as he patted her. It was obvious the two of them had a very strong bond and loved each other very much. Zack took the ball and flung in toward the sleeping Scyther. Hopefully this would end the match and allow him to catch one of his favorite Pokemon. Maybe even he would stand a chance of winning the entire thing as well. But he did not want to get his hopes up and kept his thoughts primarily on the competition at hand.

Soaring downwards through the air after its pitch, the special commemorative Pokeball had its worked cut out for it as it honed towards the slumbering mantis. Still knocked out completely from Jasmine's effective sleeping powder, it had made this incredibly one sided. A grateful switch at that given how powerful the Scyther was in battle. Nevertheless, as it hurtled towards it, the spherical device soon made contact in the form of a gentle tap. Opening itself up, a red light flung out which enveloped the hopeful capture. As it did, it was almost dragged backwards as it shrunk in size to fit inside the capturing device. Once it had been taken inside, the Sport Ball closed shut and fell to the ground with a thud. Rolling back and forth, the suspense was made worse as a sudden voice erupted from the megaphones. "HE'S DONE IT! Having weakened the Scyther plenty, Zachary Drake is going in for the capture! All eyes on the photographer!" Roared the commentator. Once...
 *BURST*Oh no! The Pokemon managed to escape! Sport Balls remaining: x13
Unluckily, it would not be enough. Still in a resistive capacity, the Scyther broke out of the Sport Ball all too easily. Either the Sport Ball was defective or Zack was gonna have to hope his chances were going to be better for the next round. Worryingly, the seedlings on the Scyther's body seemed to sway back and forth as they siphoned off more of the Pokemon's already dwindling health. If the catch didn't succeed, he may have been out of a Pokemon! Perhaps Leech Seed wasn't the best of ideas. Wild Battle

Zack was as hopefully as ever. Even an announcer seemed to know exactly where the boy was in the park which was quite impressive as he had not seen a single camera out in the tree’s thus far. His ball had failed! That added to a bit of embarrassment as the announcer had just spoken meaning that most likely he was on some jumbotron somewhere as the spectators were watching. He did not want this Scyther to get away though and as he had never been on a stage such as this before he had to work extra hard to stay focused.
Looking down at Jasmine she actually seemed in good spirits the Leech Seed was obviously working. Zack knew that was going to be the ace in his sleeve against a bug type. Bug types were strong against grass types so the combination of sleep and siphoning would be their best chance, and he had been right. Unfortunately that put maybe one or two more chances to catch the creature though as even now Zack could tell the poor bug did not have much left, and having Jasmine make another attack would only hurt the chances of capture now. All he could do was hope this next Pokeball would win out. If not he may get one more chance to catch it, but hopefully it would not come to that.
Go Pokeball!] Zack and Jasmine stood in anticipation once more as the Sport Ball made its way through the air once more at the Scyther as it lay there snoozing away.

Hurtling again towards the slumbering target, it seemed even more intense this time around as the special commemorative Sport Ball span closer and closer. The leech seed, what had originally been a positive and advantageous attack in the battle against it was now definitely working against them, causing the rate at which the Scyther's life force being drained to become something akin to that of a ticking time bomb just waiting to explode. Nevertheless, as the capture device carried out its purpose and sealed away the large praying mantis into its confines, it fell to the floor and began to rock back and forth once more. "He's trying again ladies and gentlemen! Does he stand more of a chance this time around...?! The tension is so thick in the air you could almost cut it...! Unless you were the Scyther of course considering how asleep it is." Once...
*BURST*Oh no! The Pokemon managed to escape! Sport Balls remaining: x12
Still the Scyther had broken out. Amazingly, the Pokemon had retained the potent Sleep Powder which had knocked it out asleep but sure enough, the drain from the Leech Seed made it even more problematic. It didn't looked good but if the next turn failed then they would surely be out of a Pokemon to use for the contest. "No luck audience! Its seems this Scyther is one tough nut to crack!" Letting out a small yawn from the mouth of the Scyther, it seemed that the megaphones weren't quite enough to rouse even this sleeping foe. Wild Battle

Zack watched the Scyther once more escape from a Sport Ball. All that went through his mind were that these balls were worthless. His heart sank. He knew that the Scyther was almost down and out. Even though it was asleep it was clear the poor creature was suffering. Its breathing had become very heavy, and Zack was extremely impressed with the resolve of this Pokemon. He was not sure what to do next. He could not wait to long either if that stupid Leach Seed was done once more his chance would be blow. Just then Jasmine rubbed him on his leg and gave a soft purring type noise. At least that was the best way to describe a dinosaur showing affection.
Zack knew that it was now or never pulling out one more Sport Ball he pulled it up to his lps and kissed it for good luck, and then released the ball into the air toward the sleeping Pokemon. His heart was beating rapidly now like his entire world was moving at super speed. He knelt down next to Jasmine. I hope this works girl, but just know I am so proud of you! Thank you. She nuzzled his shoulder as he was now sitting showing her appreciation and love for her trainer as they both turned to watch what would happen next…

This was it. All or nothing. The last hurrah. The end of the line. If it failed here then Zack's hopes and dreams of finally obtaining a Scyther would be all for nothing. To come so far and yet fail so close were likely going to be a terrible, crushing feeling. Nevertheless, as the leech seeds bloomed with its draining properties yet, it appeared that he only had a matter of seconds for the capture to take place. Hurtling through the air at a break neck speed, the Sport Ball opened up as soon as it made contact with the Scyther and almost with a sense of urgency, whisked it inside faster before falling to the ground and beginning the moment of truth... Once... Twice... Thrice...

ScytherName: Zealot Gender: Male Level: 14 Moves: Quick Attack, Focus Energy, Pursuit, False Swipe Ability: Technician Nature/Personality: Hasty, this feisty Scyther has a tendency to jump into situations before fully appraising the situation. Though sometimes it can work out in his favor, if he comes up against something that over powers him he can find himself in real trouble very quickly. He is faithful and strong this particular Scyther finds purpose in battle, and desires strength above all else.
Zack ran over and picked up the Pokeball. It felt cool in his hand as he held it there. He wanted to pull the Pokemon back out, but thought better of it as it was most likely still sleeping. Zack was done he had come and received exactly what he was looking for. It was time to go now. He put the ball in his coat pocket and looked at Jasmine. Well girl let’s get out of here. We have found what it is we were looking for, and now let us go and take a nice relaxing break and wait for the rest of the trainer’s to finish up their hunts.
Jasmine returned to her own Pokeball now as Zack found the path relatively easily actually and made for the entrance. He was ready for a nice break now. He was very proud of Jasmine and her abilities. They had been quite effective in this competition and he had known she would be the best choice for such an endeavor. All he could think about now was healing his new Scyther however as he made his way back up the path whistling as he went.
Jasmine Learned Sweet Sent and forgot Take Down
