[quote=@prettydrops] "Okay now, I'll need you guys to talk to that Spewpa and see if it wouldn't mind being caught," Sydney said. "Give it some food too. Hopefully it won't mind coming with humans for a short bit." [/quote] Sydney's Kricketot chirped merrily as he emerged from his Pokeball. Sydney gave him a berry and asked him offer it to the wild Spewpa before them. "[i]...Hopefully it won't mind coming with humans for a short bit.[/i]" Kricketot nodded his understanding and walked toward the cautious Spewpa, berry outstretched as a peace offering. Spewpa was hungry and Kricketot's calming words were working well. She accepted the berry gracefully and listened as Kricketot told her about his awesome trainer Sydney—how he loved Bug Pokemon and how he would take great care of her. Gobbling down the last of the berry, Spewpa nodded in agreement and hopped toward Sydney. [b]"I don't know exactly what you said Kricketot, but thank you!"[/b] Sydney pulled out an empty Pokeball and tossed it. It din't even shake once. Sydney then ran over and picked it up, holding it close to his chest. [b]"Alright!"[/b] Kricketot stood beside him and jumped up and down happily. [quote=@TheForgottenArc] Dan decided to only use Twiggy in the fight, and while though Twiggy didn't like fighting he loved to at least spend time with her trainer outside his ball. "You ready?" Dan asked the Rattata. [/quote] The wild Rattata didn't understand Dan's words, but the meaning behind them was not lost. He was supposed to battle this Pokemon that he'd never seen before. A little nervous but stubborn at the same time, he took a deep breath and charged forward. He was going to [b]Tackle[/b] his opponent with everything he had and end the battle as soon as possible.
