@PlatinumSkink Did I manage to write such a small post poorly? It was throw the Pokeball after Vine Whip. The extra command was in case it broke out and the fight resumed. If that looked awkward, I can keep it simpler next time. Also wow, I forgot to add the color. I was trying to get a post up because I've been slacking for the last few days and it kind of showed.

The seeds were tightly attached to Koffing as it replies with any move a Poison type would do. Try to poison the enemy. Martin gave a chuckle, that won't be happening to Sprout. Martin spotted his chance when Koffing floated unaware, smug that it worked. "Alright Sprout, use Vine Whip to weaken it. Follow it up with Growl to stall the fight." While Koffing was in the air, he already had a move to fight back. Between the hit and the next Leech Seed, that should be just the right timing to catch it. Even though Grass was weak against Poison, it would make sure he doesn't accidentally make Koffing faint before capture. Martin was already holding a spare Pokeball in his hand, waiting for his opportunity.
Sprout breathed in the gas surrounding him. Other than the foul smell given off, it was refreshing to breathe. Facing Koffing, he lashed at the airborne target with long vines to strike it down. It was all to easy as it was already coming closer at the same time. While Koffing would be fast enough to get his hit in, that wouldn't stop Sprout from trying to weaken his foe after.
@PlatinumSkink I know that quick catch is a thing, but I also enjoy a fight. Course, quick catch is often as easy as Leech Seed stall. Got to love having a Bulbasaur. The safe way to catch anything.
On a side note with Pokemon. For Nincada's evolution, do I need to do all the requirements to get a Shedinja? In case you don't know, it's one spare Pokeball and a spare slot in the party during evolution. Got to love secret evolutions that translate poorly for this place.

Nincada was set to stare at Gothita, even as she used Tickle on it. Martin was almost expecting something. Anything to show Nincada understood emotion, but it looked more like the Bug was uncomfortable. Seeing as that looked to be the best it could do, Martin was set for his next command. "Alright Nincada, use Tackle on-" Martin cut himself off, seeing as his opponent was floating off the floor, even not realizing that meant he was free to move. The smaller Pokemon was being pulled back to an evolved form. Dang, was Martin starting a fight with children? "Change of plan. We're done here, Nincada. Come back."
With a flash of red light, Martin recalled Nincada. Gothita was being taken away, which wasn't that bad. He didnt exactly plan on catching a Pshysic type, so he let it go. Putting away this Pokeball, he reached for Sprout. Fight Poison with Poison and he wouldn't have to worry about the fight. "Come on out, Sprout. I need you to use Leech Seed on that Koffing. We're gonna catch it." A pokemon like this should be easy enough with a basic Pokeball.
With a second flash of light, Sprout appeared. He looked around, actually seeing the sky and not being in a cave. Then he saw his target, and happily flung seeds at the unaware Koffing.
Action: Catch that Pokemon! (Koffing)

Now was the time to search for a new Pokemon to join Martin's party. An abandoned industrial facility is naturally the best spot to find Poison types. Walking through the place, and searching behind a few buildings. He had to jump back out of a doorway, seeing that Zubat never could leave him alone. Even out of a cave, they still found dark spots to wait. Martin dismissed them, he could go anywhere if he wanted one. As he kept going, he got a better idea of what was here, with Poison being the main type, and a few Drowzee not caring about people in the area. He spotted a Koffing floating by, looking quite pleased, not for long.
As Martin tried to go after it, his foot was stopped. He tried the other foot, before having to look around. Why was he being stopped? Nothing was holding him, as he could still move, just not in this direction. "Okay, real funny. What's stopping me?" Martin gave a chuckle, finally spotting a lone... He had to pull out his Pokedex to figure out what it was, having to find anything that explained why he was stuck. He found an entry about Shadow Tag, can that be used on people? "Looks like you caught me. Are you a fan of mine, or looking for a fight?"
A psychic type wasn't on his list of things to look for, but it looks like the Pokemon was looking for him. This was a single type Pokemon, which he was sure this time Bug was the answer. Koffing can wait, as Martin called out Nincada. "Cause I'm ready for a fight."
Nincada came out in a flash of red light, taking a few moments to figure out where it was. Then he spotted Gothita and blankly stared at it. This could turn into a stare off if Gothita didn't do anything. "Nincada start it off with a Harden. I'm not in a rush."
Action: Battle Gothita.

Martin's journey continued to get better and better. The city was huge, and finding the Pokemon Center was a welcome sight, after missing one for so long. It was comforting to see a nurse, and knowing his team was healthy again. He gave a grateful wave as he stepped out.
Martin gave as neutral of a choice to Trubbish. Even though the Pokemon chose to be free, it wasn't a sad moment. Martin was happy to see Trubbish enjoying the new enviroment. At least he got a free Great Ball from it. Just means he'll go look for a Poison type the normal way, earning it in battle.
Traveling through the town, Martin talked to a lot of people he found, each of them with different opinions and a few helpful hints. The mention of Raremine and Freecape reminded Martin that he was going to be backtracking to get to where he planned on going. Since he was already in Worldedge, he might as well take a better look around the place. For one thing, the Teleport took him to the Industrial District, which says a bit about Team Virtue. Seeing as Trubbish was so happy to be here, Martin had a good feeling there were more Poison types down here. Just like Goldshore, almost like home. He just needed to look a bit harder.
Action: Search for wild Pokemon.
@PlatinumSkink
Sooooo... I am trying to deal with what to do with being at Worldedge now. This is the biggest city in the world. So, yeah. I will make this work. Just have to figure out a new plan of action.

Martin wasn't taking the fact he had to leave The Vast Underground so quickly, but that could wait. He'd expected a Teleport to take him to the last city visited, but where was he? This did not look like Lakewatch Town. Actually, he was here before. Not from Pureplain, but on his way from Goldshire. He was in Worldedge. This immediately made him come to a few conclusions. The lady didn't make any stops from here to where was, he previously was. Martin's plans have been tossed out the window. "There goes my plan to look into the Endless Forest."
It took Martin a few minutes of looking around to figure out where in this city he was. The place had layers, and he didn't actually look at this place before. Machines were cranking out smoke, and the place had a heavy industrial feel to it. Seemed sketchy enough for Team Virtue to use as a stop. At least he wasn't in a cave, and could use the Pokecenter here. This place was famous for many reasons, and Martin suddenly had a lot of time. If he trained up a bit, he could eventually make it back to the cave and teach them a lesson. That, and check out the Pokemon in this area. He paid for tips on a different area, and was now back to lost again.
Stuck in one of the largest, if not the largest, city possible. He needed more than a moment to fully understand what happened. Martin gave a small laugh thinking about how he must be the first trainer to have gotten this far. He had to go back if he wanted the gyms, and forward would be a lot harder. What a situation to be put in. All Martin could do for now was take a deep breath and go with the flow. Someone would have a good idea of where to take his trip from here.
Then Martin remembered Trubbish, calling him out of the Pokeball. "Sorry to call you back Trubbish. The good news is we made it outside. The bad news, is we are now in Worldedge City. I did make you a promise though. You are free to go if you choose."
Action: Find and use the local Pokecenter to heal up.
Release/Keep Trubbsh (Depending on response.)
Talk to locals for information.
Finally. I've been trying to check this place for a few days now. Hope it doesn't go back down.
@PlatinumSkink I had to look up Teleport as well. If this move was being used by another Trainer, it would be the last Pokemon Center they visited. In a normal situation, that would be the end of this.
Considering we are in a cave, it shouldn't work. So if you tweak it to be a certain range, I'm not even sure how far the Teleport range is, considering it is literally the last Pokemon Center, which can be anywhere. So a Teleport up in theory following this logic could send me so far into space, I see Pluto. I'm up for seeing what you can come up with for improvising.
However... What makes it tricky is that a person with experience and played up to be important is making such a mistake. Something I do plan on laughing so hard at. So if the above doesn't prove possible, it can be played off as a joke before giving that Escape Rope, which would be beneficial for me, as I came in from an underwater lake.
I can work with either path you choose, but man... I'm surprised I also failed to catch this problem before I posted. Whoops.
