The pokémon, however, didn't look quite content. It's cheeks filled with air as it puffed angrily. It made it cute if anything, but it certainly wasn't trying to look cute; anywho, Erza leaned down and the pokémon hoped on his shoulder. The boy moved over to Kalmia, who was handing Rory his pokéballs. Right after that, Erza also earned five pokéballs for him to use. The boy carefully placed them in a small compartment of his satchel, taking a deep breath. Professor Kalmia was right, losing here wasn't the end of the world! [sub][sub][sub][sub]Erza thought...[/sub][/sub][/sub][/sub] But! It was time. With a respectful nod towards both Kalmia and Rory, Erza began making haste towards Pureplain City. There were some wild pokémon here, surprisingly or not, and Erza would catch at least one of each species he came across before making his way to Route 1. First things first - pokédex. Secondly, pokéballs - Erza kept three in his pocket for easier and quicker access - lastly, he glanced at the Eevee on his shoulder. It didn't seem taken down from their defeat - good! And so, the partners moved ahead to complete their first task; catching something. And eventually, Erza noticed some movement out of the corner of his eyes. A wild pokémon! The very first encounter of a lifetime of dreaming and mentally living this moment, now flowing in reality much to Erza's delight. The boy crouched slightly down so the Eevee could leap from his shoulder and into the ground without harm. As wild as the pokémon a few meters ahead of Erza, was the smirk latching itself onto his lips. The boy quickly thought over the last battle - this time, he wasn't against a very heavily defensive pokémon, which meant... Eevee could go all out! [color=00b300]Alright, Eevee! We'll get it right this time, right? See that over there? Tackle!"[/color] [hr] [@PlatinumSkink] [hider=Command] So, given I was granted some quick-catching freedom, I will actually leave the encounter entirely in our beloved GM's capable hands. Basically, whatever it is, Erza will try to catch it and if he succeeds, he'll move on to search for more pokémon. If he encounters the same kind after catching, he'll battle it for experience - if it's different, he'll try to catch it. At least, that's how I think this will work - if theres anything I must change, just tell me so![/hider]
