[@Ephemeral] Eevee tackled past the different Blitzles at the shiny one, and hit for a considerable amount of damage, the shiny Blitzle recoiling from the blow. It appeared that the shiny Blitzle was on the lower spectrum of the level chart, and as such took more than half health from Eevee’s powered-up Tackle. Then Extraordinary Night Shaded it again, and the Blitzle was reduced to almost nothing. Erza cast the Pokéball as Eevee was struck by multiple Quick Attacks in return, causing him to faint. However, Erza’s Pokéball curved towards the target in the air and hit, absorbing the Blitzle into it with a red shine before falling onto the ground. It rolled once. It rolled twice. It rolled thrice. [hider=result][i]CRASH![/i] Despite having been reduced to almost no health, the shiny Blitzle still managed to crack out of the Pokéball and stepped up on its hind feet, even though the odds may have said that it likely would have been unable to. With no more opponents nearby that the Blitzles could actually target, the herd turned around and ran, the shiny Blitzle along with them. Erza’s speed on foot would not be enough to catch up, albeit he could stalk them if he so desired. Still, his only remaining unfainted Pokémon is Extraordinary, so… It should be noted that even if they escape, the shiny Blitzle is not going to stop existing, assuming it isn’t caught by another trainer. Erza knows it exists, so he can go looking for it again. What does he do next? In case the next action is a regular action on the current route… [hider=Suggestions to actions]1. Find Pokémon.

[color=b35647]‘Good. I promise we’ll discover some interesting things together. Who knows? After we’re done, maybe we’ll have a job offer for you,’[/color] the guy said, while standing up straight again and holding a neutral expression. … Then Qwerty shot her Psybeam, Growlithe perceived it but was unable to get out of the way in time, and was hit… though not for as much damage as it would have had the two Pokémon been of equal level. Growlithe and the boy both gave Valen a serious evil eye. [color=b35647]‘Well, then,’[/color] Team Amethyst Grunt Allan wants to battle! [color=b35647]‘Growlithe, Bite!’[/color] Allan commanded, and Growlithe immediately skipped into combat, being considerably faster than Qwerty. Unless desperate measures were taken there likely wasn’t a way for her to escape being bitten for noteworthy damage, barely maintaining herself from being flinched. They were in close combat now, it’d be harder to land a Psybeam at this range unless Growlithe was taken by surprise. [color=6aa697]‘I didn’t entirely follow what was going on…’[/color] the girl was mentioning as she walked out next to Allan, Pokéball in hand. [color=6aa697]‘But I’ll support!’[/color] Though, that’s when… [@Gardevoiran] Skylar came in and talked about peace by the shrines, holding up his Pokédex. The two suited individuals gave him a glance… [color=6aa697]‘Hey, that’s a Pokédex. Given to only a handful of young trainers by Pokémon professors, quite the prized piece of technology…’[/color] the girl mentioned. [color=b35647]‘I’ll leave it to you, then,’[/color] Allan said, and the girl gave a smirk. With that, she threw her Pokéball down between her and Skylar, a blue duck emerging from within. [color=85c8de]‘Ducklett!’[/color] the duck announced.

These birds are far better swimmers than they are flyers, and make excellent divers. When attacked, it defends itself by splashing water at the offender. Their favorite food is peat moss, and they’ll be found chewing on it constantly.[/i][/color][/center] [color=6aa697]‘If you don’t like us fighting by shrines, then how about you fight us off?’[/color] the girl said confidently, crossing her arms and looking at Skylar. Team Amethyst Grunt Mia wants to- [color=b5e6e2]'HOLD IT!'[/color] Vivia took a step forward and placed herself in the way in-between Skylar and Mia. She threw a look back at Skylar, with a bit of a frown. [color=b5e6e2]'Your Pokémon are still hurt from the battle with Earl, right? So,'[/color] she turned to face Mia. [color=b5e6e2]'I’ll handle you!'[/color] [color=6aa697]‘Hmpf, handle me? I’ll handle any number of you!’[/color] Mia boasted back, frowning in turn. [color=b5e6e2]'We’ll see!'[/color] Vivia boasted right back, before grabbing for a Pokéball, and… [color=b5e6e2]'Rotom, go get-'[/color] Rotom is off pestering the owner of and stealing from the souvenir shop. [color=b5e6e2]'Venonat, go get her!'[/color] Vivia commanded, and sent out Venonat, who jumped out confidently. [color=938fbf]‘Venonat!’[/color] [center][url=http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/a/ad/048Venonat.png][img]http://i.imgur.com/r9tTI8C.png[/img][/url][/center] [center][color=6ecff6][i]Pokédex Entry #48 – Venonat, the Insect Pokémon. Its many small eyes function like radars and detect insects at night which it eats. A coat of thin, stiff hair that oozes poison covers its body for protection. Its eyes are capable of shooting beams and enable psychic powers. It's attracted to light.[/i][/color][/center] [sub][sub]On account of that Valen is also seeing Venonat now, Venonat Pokédex[/sub][/sub] Now, Skylar can totally be like “I can handle this anyway” and not let Vivia defend him, but that’s 100% up to him. His actions now is his own. And Valen also saw that part happen, but of course, he’s attacked by a Growlithe, too. Valen and Skylar’s actions?
