Quirks/Talents/Aspirations/Other: It tries to mimic Basil drawing, but all that it makes are just scribbles and blobs. Also likes marmalade sandwiches. Her goal is absolute domination on the battlefield and help Basil out of his shell. Level: 9 Moves: Rollout, Tackle, Incinerate, Rage Ability: Hustle Held Item: None [/hider] [hider=Lupin] [img]https://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/thumb/7/71/215Sneasel.png/375px-215Sneasel.png[/img] Pokémon Name: Lupin Species: Sneasel Gender: ♂ Type: Ice/Dark Personality: An intelligent, sneaky, trouble making Pokemon that has way too much trouble keeping its mitts of other people's belongings. It is also a little cocky and likes to pick fights. Quirks/Talents/Aspirations/Other: Likes listening to rock music. Wants to be a world class thief. Ironically, Lupin's favorite foods are spicy. Level: 7 Moves: Scratch, Leer, Taunt Ability: Pickpocket Held Item: None [/hider] [hider=Crocus] [img]http://i.imgur.com/gNHbSqv.png[/img] Pokémon Name: Crocus Species: Bulbasaur Gender: ♂ Type: Grass/Poison Personality: Crocus is a curious, friendly creature. A bit too friendly and trusting for its own good. Quirks/Talents/Aspirations/Other: His goal is to be an adventurer and go where no Bulbasaur has gone before! Smells like freshly cut grass. Level: 10 Moves: Tackle, Growl, Leech Seed, Vine Whip Ability: Overgrow. Boosts power of Grass-type moves when heavily damaged. Held Item: None [/hider] [/hider] [/center] There is something both terrifying and oddly admirable about these creatures battling with such reckless determination. A primal desire to conquer those in combat for either their supremacy or for the safe of survival. Or perhaps it was for some sort of Poke blood god. It was probably that. [color=8882be]"Keep at it Cecil! You're doing great!"[/color] He had to hand it to the Bulbasaur; it was taking one heck of a beating and it still would not let up at all, but even with all the determination in the world it would be able to withstand Cecil's strikes. [color=8882be]"Now's my chance."[/color] At the moment it staggered back, Basil had clicked the button on a Pokeball to make it expand before throwing it straight at the wild Pokemon. It bounced off its head and was absorbed into it with a flash of light and fell on the ground with an unceremonious thud. It was eerily silent as he focused on the ball as if staring at it would increase his odds of catching the thing. With each shake, Basil tensed in anticipation.[color=8882be]"Come on, come on, come on..."[/color] Basil repeated almost like a chant. And then it clicked...? Wait, it clicked. He walked over to the Pokeball and picked it up, shaking before his grip tightened around the ball.[color=8882be]"Yes!"[/color] He practically screamed out as he jumped for joy, throwing his arms up in the air. Of course, he realized what he was doing and composed himself. Hopefully no one was around to see that happen. He already suffered from enough embarrassment from playing as The Bard and he was certain Cecil had experienced it second hand. His Pokedex buzzed. It was probably the money from the catch being transferred to him. [color=8882be]"Holy sh-!"[/color] [color=ed1c24]"Dar!"[/color] [color=8882be]"Sorry Cecil..."[/color] But still, that's a hefty sum! That was more than three times the amount he received when he added Lupin to his party. That's what catching a crazy rare Pokemon would do. [color=8882be]"Now what to name the little guy?"[/color] Basil asked himself as he glanced down at the newly caught Pokemon. Well, he had a name in mind, but perhaps now was not the right time; the Bulbasaur was heavily wounded and Cecil certainly was not too spry herself considering she just marathoned multiple battles in a row prior to catching their newest team member. So there would have to be a change of plans; instead of heading into the woods like he planned earlier, but his Pokemon required attention and to be frank, he was desperately in need of supplies. He returned Cecil to her Pokeball and rushed over to Highhill Town as quickly as he could on the safe roads to avoid both wild Pokemon and overeager trainers. Whenever he arrives, he will head straight to the Pokemon center for his tired Mon's to get some well deserved rest before they make their next move.
