Liz recalled Chimchar to it's pokeball, she knew she most likely wouldn't have won, but she need the experience for her Pokemon to get stronger. She went on her way South once more, a little while after that she crested a small hill and could see the town of Nasi in the distance. She broke into a run hoping to get there before something else happened to her.

@Cerces22

As Liz ran the sun began to rise, she zoomed past wild Pokemon left and right, not stopping for any of them. Obviously, she had a goal and would not be detoured.

The town was sleepy when she arrived. A few shops were preparing to open, but for the most part, people were still sleeping. Half of the people that were walking the streets were also holding their heads or looking far out of it in some other way. It was as if the entire city was sick for some reason, truly an apocalyptic site to behold.

As Liz walked, a large man stumbled out from an alley way and almost crashed into her. Luckily, the Pokemon walking by his side (a large Haxorus) caught him before he could fall on top of her.

The Man

The man verbally lashed out at her through clenched teeth. "Hey! Watch-" He visibly had to hold back vomit. "-where you're going." After a moment, his eyes focused in on the person he was speaking to. "Oh, sorry little girl." Grabbing his forehead, the man began to walk off, one arm around his Haxorus.

This man is a trainer. You can choose to battle him, try and speak with him, or just let him carry on. WARNING: His Haxorus is level 85.

Pokemon: New World 2.0

Announcement!

Hey Everybody, I'm make a change to the trainer rank system. Now, Pokemon caught at a lower tier and evolved to a higher tier will still obey their trainer. The IC reason behind this is, "Why should the Pokemon change its attitude toward the person that raised it, just because it has evolved?" The OOC reason behind this is, "Our Pokemon are leveling up faster than we can catch new Pokemon to satisfy rank up requirements."

These changes have been updated in the 0th IC post. You can also look at them here:

• Beginner: Any trainer with a Pokedex is considered a beginner. A beginner may only buy/use items designated for Beginner trainers. Due to this item restriction, Beginners can only catch Tier 4 Pokemon, but Pokemon can be caught at tier 4 and evolved to a higher tier.
  

  ---

• Skilled: To obtain this rank, your character must catch six Pokemon, battle with one other user controlled trainer, and travel to one other location other than that character's starting location. At this rank, your character can buy/use 'skilled' items. Skilled trainers can catch Pokemon up to Tier 3, but Pokemon can be caught at tier 3 and evolved to a higher tier.
  

  ---

• Expert: To obtain this rank, your character must have caught 30 Pokemon and have 10 tier 3 Pokemon. At this rank, your character has access to 'expert' items. Skilled trainers can catch Pokemon up to Tier 2.
  

  ---

• Master: To obtain this rank, your character must have caught 100 Pokemon and have at least 20 tier 2 Pokemon. At this rank, your character can use all items, catch all Pokemon, and uncover all the secrets of this world.

Pokemon: Prime

Liz walked until the sun began peeking over the horizon. She was making great time, she expected to be in Nasi town before nightfall!! As she walked she passed a wild Herdier, it was minding its own business but Liz could pass up a chance to get stronger.

"Sorry Herdier, I need to strengthen my Pokemon for the next gym battle!! Come on out Hephaestus, activate your Z-Power!!" Chimchar popped out, channeling it's Crystal and began glowing.

@Cerces22

Herdier didn't outwardly react to Liz's words, but he got the message. Hephaestus popped out of his Pokeball and began to activate the Z-Crystal on command. Since the crystal was Normalium, he instinctively began to use the one damaging normal attack in his arsenal, Scratch.

While the whole situation was definitaly a drag, Herdier wasn't about to sit there and let the attack land. Instead, he charged forward with a powerful Take Down. His attack landed on the little monkey Pokemon before he was finished preparing his crystal powered attack. Hephaestus was sent tumbling.

Herdier sighed as he got up, off of the fainted Pokemon. He then ran off into the tall grass.

Result: Chimchar Goes Down

Bonus Info: Please Read

Hepheastus takes a hard hit and looses 15 Power. He faints, and the wild Herdier escapes.

As you see, in RP battles, the Z-Crystal is just another 50% Boost. Your Normalium-Z would do much better in the hands of a Normal-type Pokemon. But oh well, Hepheastus gains another level. I'm sure that was your main objective anyways.

Pokemon: Prime

"Rin, my first order of business is you become your own gym leader, we are to teach the next group of trainers. Might as well learn from one of the best huh??" Liz awoke smiling to herself, Rin would hate that dream. The Purrloin was still sound asleep on it's rock, Liz left a little more Pokefood for it and silently packed up and went on her way.

@Cerces22

By the time Purrloin woke, Liz was long gone, but the young trainer had left behind some food. Purrloin smiled to himself.

As Liz walked onward toward Nasi Town, the first rays of the morning sun were just beginning to peak over the horizon. If she kept this pace up, she would arrive just before noon.

That's when a Pokemon popped out of the tall grass ahead. Very nonchalantly, the Herdier began walking toward Liz. His body language was very lax, not a concern in the world. He wasn't attacking or anything, just walking by.

Bonus Info: Please Read

Liz has came across a wild Herdier. He is very lax natured and sitting at level 26. What will Liz do? Let the Pokemon pass or battle?

Pokemon: Prime

The sun was setting low in the sky, Liz had been walking for hours with nothing eventful happening. She knew she would have to set up camp soon, and as moisture began returning to the air she spotted a Purrloin lazily lounging nearby. She was to worn out to battle and just wanted rest.

"I tell you what my feline friend, I am going to camp right here for the night. I promise I won't battle you, if you don't believe me, you can run. But if you don't mind some silent company, I have some pokemon food here I would be will to share with you??" She slowly grabbed out a tin of food as she prepared to sleep, she began nawing on her own food as she kept a half an eye on the wild pokemon.

@Cerces22

The wild Purrloin listened as Liz spoke to him. The offer was enticing, and maybe some silent company wouldn't be that bad, as long as she didn't try to talk or anything. After thinking all this over, the wild Purrloin nodded it's head slowly and let out an appreciative purr. He hopped up an off his rock to get a few bites of food. When his appetite was satisfied, he returned to the rock and nodded off to sleep.

Bonus Info: Please Read

You can time skip to the next morning in your next post. The Purrloin is still on its rock.
As the sun rises, he will begin to stir.

@Balthazar007
Aw, thanks! I really appreciate the sentiment :)

I won't be able to take the time to write, but really quick I'd like to ask: Why did the Girafarig get a 2× multiplier, rather than a 50% one? I thought with stab, it should've only gone from 1d8 to 1d12?

@Metamore

uh oh! That was just an error on my part. I'm going to adjust things 4 points in your favor.

If you look in the hider, you will see how these changes effect the situation.

Pokemon: Prime

A Girafarig! A real, actual Girafarig! The blithesome trainer had been in love with the Long Neck Pokémon since they first saw it PokéSchool. They didn't know what it was that drew them to it. It wasn't its stats (which were mediocre), or its typing(which was decent). Just something about its plain, goofy, cute two faces made Rin fall in love with it as a child. Rin wanted it. Needed it! They were going to have it. "Synthesis now, Olotah! They're coming home with us!" Rin's breath was ragged, but they were already mentally preparing for if it tried running off like their last wild encounter. This. Pokémon. Was. Not. Getting. Away. They'd use their last two pokéballs, beg, and cry if it meant they'd get a Girafarig. They had to have it.

@Metamore

Girafarig was reaching up for another leaf when Rin let out their command, but his tail alerted him to the danger. He quickly turned around. He fully expected a charging battle hungry Pokemon, but instead he was greeted by a shining light. He had been preparing to use Confusion, but it didn't seem necessary after all. As the light faded from Olotah's body, Girafarig began to back away carefully.

Result: Twinkling Light

Bonus Info: Please Read

Olotoah regained 3 Power, but he already has Max Power, so nothing happens. The wild Girafarig looses 2 Power and now has 6 Power.

If I were you, I would either throw a Pokeball now or switch Pokemon. Keep in mind, switching Pokemon provides a small chance for the Pokemon to run away (20% chance). Liz does this a lot when she battles wild Pokemon, but she has been lucky so far.

Pokemon: Prime

"Welcome to the team Eunomos. I know your attitude will be a welcome asset to the team." Liz said to the Pokeball as she picked it up. She finally had her sixth pokemon, now it will be harder, any pokemon she catches will be transported away and she would than have to choose strategically on who to have on her team for future battles. Liz looked up to the sky, she still had some time to made distance, and she didn't want to waste any more light.

@Cerces22

Liz had been walking down route 5 for quite a while, eyes trained on the path ahead. The sun had begun to set. She had walked so far that the grassy areas were becoming a little greener and bit more moisture circulated through the air. She was in the southern reaches of Route 5.

On a nearby rock, a Purrloin rested. His eyes gazed upon the setting sun on the horizon. He was lonely but not in the least bit upset about it, a true loner. He raised one eyebrow and looked over at the approaching trainer. He then stretched and resumed his gaze. He hoped the trainer would leave him alone.

Bonus Info: Please Read

There is a lonely Purrloin up ahead. He is level 20. What will Liz do?

You didn't have to, I was just poking fun at you

@Cerces22

It's cool. They are changed now. Also note that their price has went up as they are now limitless items.

@Cerces22

I'm going to change one thing from old school Pokemon games when regarding the quote above. When you catch Pokemon past your party of six, the caught Pokemon isn't automatically transferred to the PC. It's just that you must choose one Pokemon to transfer to the PC. So you can send one that is already in your party to the PC and keep the new catch.

Picture this as every trainer having a trainer belt that can hold 6 active Pokeballs, and has one slot that will transfer an active Pokeball to the PC. It's a one way trip, so you'll have to go to a Pokemon Center to access PC Pokemon.

Understood?
