[color=black]"Some of the dumbest rules I've ever heard..."[/color]

Keanza Mori was marching through the woods, wonder map gripped in one of his hands. He'd been thrown for a loop since getting here; Being told he couldn't heal his Pokemon, being told he had to travel, without the ability to heal his Pokemon, to some 'Capital' so he could become an 'official' trainer. He had a Pokemon in a Pokeball; That sounded like a trainer to him. At the very least that old man had been pretty useful; This map was clear on where he was going, and he had no intentions of stopping today. 

He had noticed other people his age get off the boat; After that pathetic display called a tournament. That punk rich boy barely won with Type-Advantage; And that hick was stupid enough to think she could beat Grass with Ground. Not to mention that other girl; She lost to a water type. With an ELECTRIC TYPE. Those three were beyond bad; So bad, he puked into the water because of it! That wasn't seasickness at all; It was their fault.

[color=black]"No matter,"[/color] Mori thought, figuring he was ahead of them anyways. They went wandering off to the beach, while he ventured into the Forest, heading towards the Capital. He wished he could've seen the look on their faces when they couldn't heal their Pokemon after going and battling; Tch! Not checking just proved more that they were idiots. He was glad he hadn't had to mess with any of them.

Having taken the route through the forest due to wanting to move along faster, he knew it was more dangerous. But truly, he didn't really care. It was just an excuse to get tougher if trouble presented itself.

Much like the Pancham that rushed out from the woods, crying out as it attempted to strike Mori. He grunted in pain as it punched him in the leg, stumbling back a bit before pulling out Mankey's Pokeball and sending it out in a hurry. [color=black]"Fury Swipes, don't show it any mercy!"[/color] He commanded, and his Pokemon sprung into action as the white glow faded and it's form became clear.

Mankey continuously clawed at Pancham, but the agile panda Pokemon continuously dodged, a smug look on it's face as it did so. After nearly backing off of the path, the Pancham leered, causing Mankey to freeze it place momentarily, long enough for Pancham to punch him in the face, sending him tumbling over. 

[color=black]"Low-Kick!"[/color] Mori commanded once more, irritated at Mankey.

Snapping out of it's momentary fear, Mankey went for a leg-sweep; Taking the Pancham down. Mankey quickly regained it's footing, but both Mankey and Mori were taken by surprise as the Pokemon began to mist away; Revealing an odd form, similarly to a fox. The Pokemon grinned, seeming to have taken the form of the Pancham to mess with Mori. 

Mori's eyes widened, but only slightly as to not express a lot of enthusiasm. [color=black]That could be useful."[/color] He deduced, before deciding that he'd catch it. [color=black]"While it's down, continuously use your Fury Swipes, Mankey!"[/color]

Crying out, the Mankey lunged forward; Pinning the (apparent to the GM) Zorua down, and clawing at it multiple times. Cries escaped from the Pokemon as it was assaulted, attempting to struggle out of it and fight back, but to no avail as it was mercilessly pummeled into submission. Mankey continued to attack, seeming intent of making it faint. 

[color=black]"Mankey, that's enough!"[/color] Mori called, but it wasn't stopping. Slash, after slash, it continued to attack. It got to the point that Mori had no choice but to return Mankey, before running up to the Zorua, observing it's injuries as it laid there, whimpering from the countless scratches on it's body, some of them bleeding. 

A momentary ping of shame washed over the young man. 

[color=black]"I'm sorry."[/color] He spoke, guilty in his mind. [color=black]"I'm heading somewhere we can get you fixed up. Don't struggle with me."[/color] His voice wasn't exactly sweet, but he was being honest. Regardless of wanting to catch it, it needed help now; He wouldn't be using it until the Capital with it in this condition.

He pulled out a spare Pokeball, tapping it against the injured Zorua before letting the Pokeball drop to the ground. It was hurt, but possibly determined enough to escape. It was weak to the point leaving it was a bad idea if he wanted it to survive...
