Styling - 1 “How do you make a Tauros more beautiful than it already is?

[color=green][u][b]Pokemon Team [/b][/u][/color] Team of Six, No Legendaries or Ultimates [b]Nickname[/b]: Mercury (Talonflame) [hider= Mercury] [img]http://pa1.narvii.com/6347/2741d3ddf02b576e410363d3253a28269c1077fd_00.gif[/img] [/hider] [b]Role[/b]: Mercury serves Angelica as a scout, providing reconniance and tracking pokemon over large distances. When on the range herding her families Tauros and Miltanks, Mercury has come in handy in alerting Angelica to danger to the herd. In battle, Mercury is the usually the first pokemon she sends out. This will serve to take a measure of the opponent as well as set up a ‘Sunny day’ effect. Mercury is also the main solution Angelica has to the fighting types that mess with her plans. [b]Favored moves[/b]: Sunny day Brave Bird U-turn Solar beam [b]Personality[/b]: Mercury is a proud and dutiful pokemon. Always on a look out for danger and always eager to report any danger in the environment. Mercury has good eye sight but occasionally he will make mistakes. He might think he saw an ekans in the grass only for it to be a shoelace that was not properly tied. He is very protective of Angelica and will try to scare off people who might be scary to Angelica. Mainly men. Angelica is not intimidated to men, but Mercury thinks she is. Well, it is either that, or Mercury is just being territorial. It is hard to tell. [b]How you met[/b]: Mercury is not Angelica’s first pokemon but it is the first she ever managed to catch. Angelica did not depart on her pokemon adventure when she was 10 because of her obligations to her family and the ranch. Shortly after she got her first pokemon, Hades, Angelica’s father had a business trip that took him to the Kalos region. He took Angelica along with him. Naturally, Angelica brought Hades. While traveling through Kalos with her father, Angelica came across a wild Fletchling. Angelica did battle with it, but it got away from Hades. The Fletching did not take its defeat lightly and it pursued Angelica for a rematch. Several days later, while her father was in a conversation with an important and wealthy businessman, Angelica was attacked by the Fletching. They fought a long, low intensity fight. The business man looked out the window to see the fight between Angelica’s Houndour and a fletching. The man watched for a bit before walking outside to watch the fight. Her father was in tow. The man was amused by Angelica’s attempts to catch the Fletchling. Angelica sent a pokeball at the Fletchling and miss. She tried again but the fletchling broke free. Houndour tackled the bird and the third pokeball was thrown. The fletchling was still able to break free. The Businessman laughed and threw an Ultraball at the fletchling. It caught the tiny bird. Angelica was disheartened that she was unable to capture the bird pokemon. She pickup the ultraball and presented it to the businessman. The businessman insisted Angelica keep it. Angelica insisted that it was the man’s pokeball caught it so it was his pokemon. The man laughed and turned to Angelica’s father, “You have raised an honorable and humble daughter. I give her the pokemon in good faith, not let us go sign this deal, yes?” As the business man and her father walked away, Angelica slowly realized she had caught her first pokemon. Joy overcame her. --- [b]Nickname[/b]: Hades (Houndoom/ Mega Houndoom) [hider=Hades] [img]http://www.60cards.net/media/blog_headers/Houndoom.png[/img] [img]http://img05.deviantart.net/a185/i/2013/355/5/6/mega_houndoom_by_nganlamsong-d6yq8nd.png[/img] [/hider] [b]Role[/b]: On the range while herding Angelica’s family pokemon, Hades serves as an excellent shepherd dog. He prevents any from wandering too far away from the Herd. Hades is the an Anchor and a sweeper for Angelica’s team. Hades is an anchor because he can be sent out to reverse the course of a battle. He not only swings the momentum of a fight back to a level, but will often push the scales over to a victory. Hades and Angelica have a deep bond. Not wanting to disappoint Angelica, he will gladly suffer a mega evolution. Angelica is reluctant to put him through a mega evolution. However, Angelica won’t deny Hades desire for victory. Despite being a dark and fire type pokemon, Hades serves as one of Angelica’s solutions to the party’s weakness to water. Hades knows how to use Solar Beam and will use this during Sunny Day. [b]Favored moves[/b]: Flamethrower Dark Pulse Solar beam Pursuit [b]Personality[/b]: Hades is an exceedingly loyal pokemon. He will go out of the way to protect those whom are under his care, which is to mean a friend to Angelica. Hades also loves to win. He will compete and fight those whom will be peers or rivals to Angelica and her pokemon party. [b]How you met[/b]: Hades was Angelica’s first pokemon. Houndoom and Houndour have been serving as shepherd dogs to the Lumenril family for generations. Both pokemon and human generations. When Angelica was 8 years old, the main houndoom of the family had a litter of pups. (I know pokemon come from eggs. This is an expression of laying multiple eggs around the same time) Angelica was given a infant Houndour to raise. --- [b]Nickname[/b]: Athena (Rapidash) [hider=Athena] [img]https://i.pinimg.com/236x/19/4c/70/194c7077e59c4a8dd0b3a1d8cfa23b4e--pokemon-club-pokemon-fan-art.jpg[/img] [/hider] [b]Role[/b]: Athena is Angelica’s prized steed. Out on the range, herding her family cattle, Athena is the only steed Angelica will use. Angelica has ridden Rapidash for a long time and knows how to brace herself for when Athena leaps to full speed. In battle, Athena uses speed to avoid attacks while using its physical momentum from its speed to beat its opponent into submission. With Athena’s exceptional speed, she is used as a secondary set up pokemon for Sunny Day. [b]Favored moves[/b]: Sunny Day Flame Charge Wild Charge Drill Run [b]Personality[/b]: Athena is a very thoughtful pokemon and will often get lost gazing out at the horizon or at clouds. Gentle nudges are often needed to get Athena back on track. [b]How you met[/b]: Angelica’s family keep many pokemon herds on their ranch. One of the types of pokemon were Ponytas and Rapidashes. They were both ridden to help around the ranch or they were sold off to Poke’ Racers and trainers alike. Usually the family sells off a ponyta as soon as it evolves into a Rapidash unless it is a personal pokemon to a family member or it is needed for breeding. Athena was officially given to Angelica shortly after she received Hades. Angelica needed a mount to cover the large distances of the range to herd pokemon. --- [b]Nickname[/b]: Vulcan (Camerupt) [hider=Vulcan] [img]https://orig00.deviantart.net/784a/f/2015/054/1/d/camerupt_by_epifex-d8j97y8.png[/img] [/hider] [b]Role[/b]: Vulcan is a bulky, slow, and tanky pokemon among Angelica’s team. He is likely to take up a defensive position then either spews fire or smashes the ground until the hostile pokemon goes away. Being a ground type, Vulcan naturally serves as a solution to any fire types who try to piggyback off of Angelica’s Sunny day plan. [b]Favored moves[/b]: Earthquake Flamethrower Lava Plume Solar beam [b]Personality[/b]: Vulcan is a fairly quiet pokemon. He is very slow to anger and slow to make any hard choices. He usually accepts whatever comes his way and deals with it in a very humble and stoic manner. His magma hot breaths are long and slow even in moments of intense fighting. His actions often show apathy and annoyance at how others can take mundane things so seriously. He really does not understand why people and pokemon must rush here and there because whenever he gets there, whatever he was looking for is either there or not there. On the other hoof, Vulcan is a true volcano. When he gets mad, run. Seriously, children please just run away please. Vulcan has a fury that puts and army of tauros stampeding to shame. He truly lives up to the name of the ‘eruption’ pokemon. When Vulcan has a tantrum, he will spew magma and smash the ground to make the earth. Vulcan usually gets this way suddenly and usually in response to his friends getting directly hurt. [b]How you met[/b]: When she was about 14, Angelica was climbing Mt. Chimney while riding on her Rapidash, Athena. Mercury was flying high overhead just below the layer of ash and cloud mix together. Angelica was looking for a stray Tauros that had broken through a fence and ran off towards the volcano. It was as Athena and Angelica were climbing up a rocky slope that the volcano sent out a shiver. The small quake made Athena stumble and being her hoof down hard on a rock. However, it was not a rock, but a geodude. The poor Geodude in pain and surprise immediately self-destructed sending Athena and Angelica tumbling through the air and down the rocky slope. With quick thinking, Angelica withdrew Athena into her pokeball, but could not stop her own fall. Angelica came to a rough landing on the rocks. She had the wind knocked out of her and her left arm was broken. Wheezing in pain, she laid there among the rocks on the side of the volcano. Angelica could see Mercury flying overhead looking for her, but she was in too much pain to call out to her pokemon. Angelica sat with her back against a rock for some time. Eventually the pain numbed and she began to rummage through her bag for supplies. As she did so, Angelica was hit in her side. Angelica was startled, but so was her attacker. A numel had ran head first into Angelica and had not even known she was there until she screamed. The numel looked at Angelica with very drowsy eyes and tried to walk forward again. He ran into Angelica a second time. She with all the might she could despite the pain, pushed the numel away. Numel seemed extremely confused at this. Angelica reached into her bag and pulled out some poketreats. She through them beside the Numel. Numel seemed to ignore the treat and began to walk forward once more into Angelica. Again, Angelica pushed the wild Numel away. This time Mercury circling high above took noticed and with a loud cry descended rapidly on the Numel. Coming to a fast landing between Numel and Angelica, Mercury opened its wings to force the wild Numel back. In confusion, the Numel stumbled backwards and its drowsy eyes seemed for a moment to grow angry at the angry bird before him. However, the anger soon vanished as it saw the poke’ treat on the ground. It took a bite at the treats taking in a huge chunk of dirt and rock with the treat. Angelica reached out to touch her talonflame to prevent the bird from attacking. Weakly, she grabbed a pokeball and rolled it towards the Numel. The pokeball made contact with the Numel and the numel did not notice as it was drawn inside the pokeball. It caught the Numel without much resistance. --- [b]Nickname[/b]: Zeus (Tauros) [hider=Zeus] [img]https://pm1.narvii.com/5813/67a8de6fa06518e7e7a80fe8697fe3dfa8fbe4ad_hq.jpg[/img] [/hider] [b]Role[/b]: Zeus serves as a fast physical sweeper for Angelica’s party. Being one of the few non-fire types among the party, the weakness to water is actually not applicable. In fact, Zeus is one of the parties answers to the infamous water types. Its Wild Charge move has been quite a surprise to a rampaging water pokemon. Zeus also has some surprises against fighting pokemon. [b]Favored moves[/b]: Zen Hedbutt Rock Smash Wild Charge Earthquake [b]Personality[/b]: Zeus is a relatively naive pokemon. It does take much to get this pokemon to lower its head and charge at whatever enemy it can see for whatever injustice it is told happened. Zeus will follow Angelica’s orders without hesitation. Clearly, Angelica would not have him attack someone who was undeserving of his just wrath. [b]How you met[/b]: Angelica had known Zeus for a long time before finally claiming him out of her family’s herd. Zeus had often wandered away from the herd. He was always willing to take on a threat to the Herd alone. Angelica and her rapidash Athena were always rounding up Zeus and sending him back into the herd. It was when Zeus rammed his way through a fence on the border if the family land when Angelica really had to go after him. Once off of the property, Zeus made his way up the slope of Mt Chimney. When Angelica noticed that one of the herd was missing and then the hole in the fence, Zeus had a large head start. Angelica left the herd in the hands of her brother and rode out on Athena to go find him. She had Mercury flying up ahead to see if he could see the roaming Tauros. On the way, a riding accident caused Angelica to get hurt. After a interesting run in with a numel. Angelica had to create a makeshift sling for her broken arm. Full of pain, Angelica remounted Athena and rode out to continue the search. Zeus was found on a ledge on the side of the mountain. It was sniffing a series of blue flowers. When he saw Angelica, he was sent into a rage. He lowered his head and charged. Angelica was only able to avoid the charging bull because Athena’s speed. Mercury dove from up high down onto the Tauros and the battle was joined. The battle was a long one. Angel had to withdraw Mercury after Zeus knocked the bird out. Angelica had to dismount and send in Athena to the fight. Zeus managed to overpower the fire horse. Angelica finally switched to Hades and Hades finally dealt a decisive blow. Angelica throw a pokeball and brought the battle finally to an end. She sighed with relief and rewarded Hades. Picking the blue flowers that had so attracted the tauros, Angelica made her way down the mountain slowly. --- [b]Nickname[/b]: Hera (Miltank) [hider=Hera] [img]https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/pokemon/images/c/cf/Miltank_JE091.png/revision/latest?cb=20150617190117[/img] [/hider] [b]Role[/b]: Hera is a much needed anchor to Angelica’s party. While bulky and able to take a hit, Hera’s speed is a factor that should not be overlooked. With her abilities she can turn around the tides of battle. Angelica has trained Hera to be the solution to problems that others cannot handle. [b]Favored moves[/b]: Thunder Punch Ice Punch Fire Punch Power-Up Punch [b]Personality[/b]: Hera is a passionate soul who is very happy to help both friends and strangers alike. She doesn't like when people hurt other and definitely when those hurt her friends. In many ways, her anger at seeing her friends hurt is worse than some of Vulcans tantrums. Hera dotes on Zeus and will often get depressed if she does not see him often. [b]How you met[/b]: When Angelica finally made her way off Mt Chimney, she released Zeus from his pokeball and presented him with the blue flowers. Happily the Tauros took the flowers in his mouth and ran over to a miltank to present the flowers to her. That Miltank was Hera. Angelica was charmed by this action, but did not stay long as she had to get her arm tended to. It was about a month later when Angelica finally moved out onto her own pokemon adventure. She had delayed for 4 years because of her family, but her parents had to recognize how good she was at actually being a trainer. Having caught Mercury, Vulcan, and Zeus, the evidence was in that she could handle things on her own. Taking Hades and Athena with her, Angelica bought a ticket on the S.S Anne to the Kanto region. On the road to the port in Slateport City, Angelica realized that she was being followed. A Miltank had followed her from the ranch. Angel tried to get the miltank to return to the ranch but it refused. This Miltank was Hera and she demanded to travel wherever Zeus was going. Angelica realized it when Zeus broke out of his pokeball to comfort Hera. Angelica took pity on the miltank and presented a pokeball to Hera. Hera gladly touched the pokeball and allowed herself to be captured. Now with a full team, Angelica made her way to her ship and to Kanto for her pokemon adventure. --- [/hider]
