Minor League. [/hider] [hr] Successfully having teleported some distance away, Ralia giggled brightly. Mischief managed, she waved energetically at the Meganium, not caring at all about the intended outcome or seeming sorry in the least little bit. The Ralts seemed entirely unconcerned with the glare, too, waltzing back close to the grass type. Ah, maybe she should apologize? She had her fun, no sense in remaining upset or otherwise letting the Meganium be angry. Hm, it was a grass type right? It'd like flowers, right? [color=1a7b30]"Raaal!~"[/color] Cheerfully, Ralia ran off after the Meganium. She should probably make sure her trainer hadn't done anything extremely silly. She almost put herself back on Meganiums back, but she was almost certain that'd end badly, hehe! Instead, as she walked along behind the Meganium, she ended up picking a few flowers from the surrounding area. [hr] Running through the forest, Claire's footsteps eventually carried her away from the thick spore filled forest and into what could only be described as a beautiful natural vista. Too focused on catching the Chikorita though, she wasn't paying too much attention to the environment if it wasn't inherently dangerous. She continued the chase, now that she didn't have any obstacles or pokemon to watch out for, she could gain some ground. [color=#d3381c]"Haha, now you've lost your home turf advantage!"[/color] Claire laughed, grinning confidently as she persistently continued around the rock. She was gaining ground, yes! Soon enough she'd have caught the little green leaf head! [color=#d3381c]"Wahaha, now you're mine-Bwuh!?"[/color] Picking up for a final sprint on one more lap, her tackling dive unfortunately turned into a grass-eating face plant as she tripped over her own feet. Thankfully, being as supremely skilled as she was, she reached out her arms, scooping up the small pokemon as she tumbled to the ground and rolled once, ultimately coming to a sitting stop at the edge of the large mossy rock with the Chikorita held firmly in her lap. [color=#d3381c]"Oof-ahaha, got ya, ya little troublemaker!"[/color] Claire laughed as she caught her breath. Taking a moment to wind down after that run, Claire sat there, leaning against the rock, stretching. Huh, so there was a place like this in the middle of the forest. It was oddly tranquil, and not nearly as dangerous as the rest of the forest. Was this the deepest place? Huh, she almost wanted to kinda take a nap here. [color=#d3381c]"Whew, you ran me halfway through the forest, didn't ya little guy?"[/color] Claire laughed, petting the small grass type on the head. Hm, she wondered if she should catch the pokemon? Part of her wanted too, and he would be a good addition to her team, but...hm. She couldn't say she ever considered adding a pokemon like Chikorita to her team. Grass types weren't her forte and if she was to be perfectly honest, she had no idea how to use them effectively. They usually had a bunch of status effect moves to wear down the opponent, right? As she considered things, she became keenly aware of something floating far too close to her head. Of course, like any normal person who had their personal space invaded, she turned to look at the colorful intruder. ... ... ... Either she was high on spores or those shrooms she picked up, or she seriously needed to be admitted to a crazy house. It was an odd experience, not needing to breathe, suspended in an endless sea of white. She couldn't feel anything. Her arms, legs, or even the chikorita in her lap. It was like she had completely ejected herself from reality. Was this what they called 'Nirvana' or something? Doubtful. Hm. Maybe she was developing awesome psychic powers after growing up around a Medicham? Also doubtful, but it'd be great if true. She certainly wasn't unconscious. It was pretty difficult to knock a human out cold. So obviously she was sleeping, yep. Exhausted from her run and feeling comfortable, she was now fast asleep...right? Suddenly, an image formed in her head, nearly burning itself into her memory. It...was not something she wanted to see, really. A girl was suspended in a water tank, with long, beautiful blue hair in an unknown building and locked up tight behind some strong looking metal doors. She could see various instruments collecting some sort of data from the girl in question, but she couldn't make them out. She wasn't sure she would understand even if she could. More concerning still, were what could only be guards. Masked men with a number of pokeballs on their belts. She was beginning to think this in fact, was not a dream. And then the question came. [color=#d3381c]"Woah woah woah, this is getting too real isn't it!?"[/color] The question persisted. This was serious. So very serious from the looks of things - far beyond the skill level of one such as herself. Logically, this was just some sort of weird dream with no basis in reality. Even if this was somehow real, she was just a noob trainer with a single minor-league badge and the respect of the pokemon in the cave. Yet here she was, being asked to save someone? She should go to the police. Or perhaps the Elite four. That's what any reasonable person would do. ...it's a good thing she wasn't known to be that. [color=#d3381c]"Well, if you're asking for my help,"[/color] She paused for a moment. [color=#d3381c]"Obviously ya asked me for some reason, so lay it on me and I'll rescue the princess from the bad guys. Juuuuust don't blame me if I steal her from ya with my incredible good looks."[/color] She grinned impishly. Or would have been, if she was capable of it.
