"Ele-Le-Kid!" 

"Damn it, stop!" 

Raizo glared at the bipedal electric-type, grabbing it's large, bulky fist right before it could punch him - yet again - in his jaw. This entire bus ride was taking waaay to long, and after an hour of sleeping the trainer was awoken by his Pokemon punching him repeatedly in the jaw; for no reason! He sincerely doubted that the Pokemon was bored, seeing as it usually entertained itself with electricity when Raizo slept, so the electric-type was only doing it to annoy him. "Kid Kid!" The disgruntled Pokemon growled back, standing up in the leathery, torn seat of the sweaty bus and attempting to punch Rai with it's other fist. Similar to the first time, Raizo merely grabbed the fist and twisted it sharply, causing Elekid to grunt in embarassment as it tripped from the sudden pressure, falling face-first onto the sticky floor.

"'Tis what ya get for messing with the best," Raizo grinned his usual rugged smirk, running a thumb over his nose and turning the other way snidely. Elekid growled, electricity sparking between it's large, plug-like ears. "ELEKID!" It yelped, before tackling the back of Raizo's pack and releasing a small voltage of electricity-charged power right into it's trainer's system. Raizo merely ignored the, to anyone else, painful shock, turning his head towards Elekid with his brown eyes twitching harshly. His spiky brown hair was smoking, standing straight up due to the sudden discharge of electricity.

"Oh no you just didn't..." he began, a brutal smirk making it's way onto his face, but Elekid matched it with his own cocky grin. They stared at each other, one sparking with electricity and the other smoking from it, until the gruff voice of the bus driver snapped them both out of it. "Well, kids. We're here. Thank you for using my service, and make sure to mention me to all your friends!" the man stated, and at once the staring contest was over, with Elekid grabbing onto Raizo's bag as the muscular, scarred teen stood up and cracked his sore appendages, looking back at the other children. Two girls and two boys. An even number. "See ya out there, kiddies." he smirked, flashing them the peace sign before dashing off the bus. Elekid leaped off of his bag and landed on the top of a bus seat, flashing the group a peace sign as well before turning around with a grin of it's own.

"Ele-ele-kid, Kid!"

Raizo and Elekid settled down outside of the bus, noting the tall figure of Michael standing right in front of them. Their journies had brought them face-to-face with dangerous Pokemon, criminals, and even some VERY weird stuff, but to be in front of a hero was...interesting. As the other kids settled beside him, Raizo grinned and stepped forward, Elekid bouncing after him.

"Yo! Name's Raizo, or Rai, whatever. Nice to meet you all." he said, rough tone friendly and eager. Elekid leaped onto his head, nestling itself into spiky brown bangs. "Ele-Kid!" it yelled out, flashing a Thundershock into the air.
