RISING UP TO THE CHALLENGE OF OUR RIVALS!

Bio

This is my second profile on here, and I have been Play-By-Post RPing for about nine years now. I do my best to see every RP to the end or at least let my character come to his/her own dramatic conclusion when I feel like signing off. Just like novel writing in real life, I tend to find myself on long hiatuses. Since writing is a great way to work out your brain, I try stay engaged as much as possible.

My favorite genres include futuristic worlds, mysteries, and super powers. Any mixture of these three elements will peek my interest.

Liz was beep bopping on he way, enjoy ing the rush of a newly evolved pokemon. A drunk guy stumbled up to her and issued a challenge to any pokemon that wasn't her new Maganium. Liz thought about it for a moment and decided she knew the perfect little home wrecker.

"Are you sure you want to take little old me on?? A big strong man like yourself attacking a poor little girl?? My, my what ever shall I do" Liz said sarcastically, she tossed a pokeball out and a light shot out. "Enyo, be a sweetie, Fake Out this gentleman's Pidove." Liz stood back with a sickly sweet smile on her face, knowing her act would fly over the drunkards head.


The boy was already an experienced drinker (perks of growing up in Nasi Town). His motor functions were certainly impaired, but he caught onto Liz's act. Through a loud laugh he responded, "You're a feisty one aren't you!? Alright! Let's do this! Pidove, use Gust!"

Pidove began to flap her wings. Air started building up. But before she could gain any momentum, Mienfoo came charging forward. Her eyes were locked with the Pidove. She reared her fist back and then made a quick intimidating noise as she stopped the attack. Pidove was so thrown by these Fake Out movements that it quit flapping its wings and fell back to the ground, not injured, but definitely shaken.

Result: Pidove Studders

Liz stood there with a deadpan expression on her face. As the dad's took the boy away she thanked them for the rare candy. As she put it away Chloris began glowing, she looked on with a slight content smile on her face. Chloris grew and got a bit bulkier the leaf became two antenna. Her color became a darker green, and her flower blossomed. As the light faded a brand new Maganium stood before her.

"And you wanted to fight me catching you, look at you now!!
A big strong Maganium!!"
She hugged the Pokemon and recalled it, with a new power hitter she knew nothing would stop her.


With a newly evolved Pokemon in toe, Liz was visibly on cloud nine, but she wasn't the only one on cloud nine.

From behind a tree, there had been a boy watching Liz's short lived battle. He wasn't trying to be sneaky. He was just taking a piss. As Liz began to walk away, the boy zipped up his pants, picked up his beer off the ground, and ran to catch up with Liz. His path wasn't exactly a straight one. "Hey! Hey! I saw tha battle. Jus wow! Wha else yu got on Ur teeeaam? Got any other goo ones? I take yu on if yu do!"



The boy reached for a Pokeball off his belt. It slipped out of his hand and landed on the ground in front of him. Out popped a Pidove. The boy shrugged his shoulders like, 'Whoops!'.

"So whaddya say?"


@balthazar007

It may seem trivial to you, but are there shiney pokemon in this RP??


Yes, there is a 1 in 100 chance that any wild Pokemon you run into will be shiney.
"Focus Rin," they chastised themselves aloud this time. "You need Pokéballs, which means . . ." Swallowing thickly, Rin balled their fists at their side and turned back towards the Pokémon Center. The Nurse Joy frome earlier was watching them with worried eyes as an equally upset Audino held his trainer's hand. 'Arceus, why?' Taking a deep breath Rin decided to get this over with in the best possible manner they knew how . . . which was sprinting past the Nurse Joy, slowing only enough to not have a repeat crash, and finally throwing themself at the PokéMart stall. "I need stuff!" Rin feverishly kept checking over their shoulder for the Nurse Joy. Talk about First Impression, First Fail . . .


It was early afternoon by the time Rin made it to the Poke Mart. "I need stuff!"

The man behind the counter motioned them to the counter. "Hi there! Absolutely. We've got the goods. Just check out the monitor behind me here. All the prices are listed. Just select your items and hand me your Pokedex. And we'll have you checked out in a jiffy!"

"Well the fun way it is than, rude." Liz turned and started walking away, she gestured with her hand.

"Chloris, show Sableye the beautiful Magical Leaf your known for." Bayleef began glowing as leaves shot out of it and took aim at the kids Sableye.


Sableye watched as Liz walked away. A battle? Pshh. Sableye wasn't scared. He stood up in defiance. He stuck both of his hands out. To the outside world, nothing was happening, but to Chloris, her surroundings were getting darker. Sableye was casting Night Shade.

This obviously didn't bother Chloris in the least however. Without mercy, she sent a shower of glowing Magical Leaves toward Sableye. The attack was super effective. Sableye fell to the ground hard and passed out.

The little boy rushed over to help his Sableye. He then looked up and screamed at Liz, "You monster! How could you!? What's your Bayleef at!? Level 30 or above!? You could have killed him!" Sure, Liz could try to explain the logistics of what being a ghost meant, but the chances of him listening.

Just then, two men came running up on the situation. "Ricky! Ricky! We've been looking all over for you. Don't scare us like that." The family reunited with many tears. After a few moments, they left, but not before oppologizing to Liz for the trouble. They even gave her a Rare Candy for her troubles.

As the family walks away, a strange light starts to engulf Chloris...

Result: The Hard Way

..."How about you give this buddy something nice to remember us by? Osajyin, show off your unforgettably handsome beauty with Synthesis." Stepping back, Rin let the rest of the battle unfold. Tapping their foot excitedly, Rin just couldn't wait to get to Sunsay, and really start begining their journey! Just as Osajyin's light began to get its brightest, Rin shot the Phanpy finger guns and cockily invited the Phanpy to their team. "I know, impressive. So join us next time we meet, yeah?" All Rin needed were sunglasses, and not only would they look like an arrogant prick, but also so that they'd stop damaging their eyes by looking straight at Osajyin's Synthesis all the time. Alas, such is the price of pride.


As Osajyin's body began to glow, the weakened Phanpy reacted in fear and balled up for another Defense Curl. This shielded his eyes from most of the light, but he did catch a glimpse.


"Hey Sableye, listen you really should listen to your trainer,
he worked very hard to capture you. The little guy only wants to help you get stronger, just like I help my pokemon. We have awesome adventures together,
so get your head out your ass and help each other grow got it?? Or else you will always be weak."
She stared at the Sableye and waited to see it's response.


Sableye watched Liz as she spoke, and when she was finished, he bowed and nodded his head, as if in compliance. He then held up his hand in front of his face, palm toward himself. Slowly he looked back and forth between his hand and Liz. He did this long enough to create confusion. What was he trying to say?

He then tilted his head to the side and lowered two of his three fingers, the outside two. Where he learned that signal, who knew? But he sure enjoyed using it. With his other hand, he pointed at Liz's face. His whole body began to shake violently as he laughed in silence.


Rin had already prematurely jumped into the air in congratulations when the wild Phanpy curled in on itself in an exemplary display of Defense Curl. Osajyin's super-effective leaves bounced useless off of the Long Nose pokémon, littering the ground dirty with green. "What?! Oh come on, that's not fair! You definitely deserve to be on my team for that one . . ." Rin pouted, but not before shaking it to clear their head of their frustration. "No . . . Osajyin and Gerseti were more than worth it," Rin reassured the Leaf Pokémon despite his being unphased by the earlier comment. "I should have tried harder to bring your Power down first, but what's done is done." Noting the Phanpy had taken Rin's minature monolog as the opportunity to stalk off again, Rin dove in front of it like a Herdier using Take Down. Falling with an audible oof, Rin huffed out their next command. "Hurry, Osaja, before it tries getting away again: Razor Leaf!" Rin hoped this attack would be different, but with the Phanpy's Defense Curl up, and Rin right in front of it, that may be enough to throw him off again. Still, Rin had total confidence in their Bayleef. His individual winning streak won't be beat yet!


Phanphy was almost in the clear, "Thank goodness this trainer likes to talk!" he thought.

But he wouldn't get far before Rin noticed his movements. They called out Razor Leaf, and a shower of leaves went rushing toward the Phanpy. Reacting by instinct once again, Phanpy began to use roll out. After all its only the natural move following a Defence Curl.

But his luck wouldn't hold up this time. He had turned his back to the opponent when he was trying to walk away. So in order to start his Rollout, he first had to do a 180 degree spin. The leaves came crashing down upon him before he could build any momentum.

Result: Critical Hit!


@Balthazar007
That Phanpy's rolls was still ridiculously higher than mine, but just so you know: it shouldn't have gotten STAB for Defense Curl. Phanpy actually never learns any Ground Type moves for some reason.


It didn't get STAB. It got a 50% boost for using a stat move, like we discussed. 50% of 17 is 8 (rounded in your favor). 17+8=25. So actually, the phanpy should have rolled a die 25 instead of a die 24 like I accidentally did. But I'm not going to adjust for that.

As long as you don't loose the next roll, it doesn't matter though.

But, I'm too tired to do more rolls and stuff at the moment. I'll have to finish this in the morning. I'm starting a company IRL, and there was a lot of work involved with that today.
...Not too far in the distance, Rin could see the roofs of buildings. Sunsay was in sight! Taking off at their top speed Rin had almost run right past the wild Phanpy on the road! Nearly falling flat on their face with how fast they spun back around, Rin hastily reached for Osajyin's pokéball. Apparently the Phanpy thought that if it just inched away long enough it would look boring, and Rin would lose interest, but this just bought Rin enough time to aim their throw. With a strike of white light, Osaja grew right in front of the Long Nose Pokémon. Its path now blocked on both sides, there was only one way it was getting out of this predicament. "Osajyin, let's put that advantage to use! Use Razor Leaf!" Dramatic finger point and all, Rin was ready to raise Osajyin's winning streak. This would be easy.


Phanpy's attempt at hiding had turned up lame. As Rin called out for a Razor Leaf assult, Phanpy opened his eyes just in time to see Osajyin appear from his Pokeball. He flicked his head. Leaves began flying toward Phanpy. Out of pure defensive instinct, Phanpy rolled into a ball. His hard outer hide deflected every single leaf.

Poised and ready to strike back from his coiled up position, Phanpy prepared his next move.

Result: Phanpy's Defense!
