Dragon's Awakening

Ralph's eyes scanned the area around him. There was nobody in sight, which was good. He didn't want to run into anybody after what he'd seen while escaping Metropolis. He shuddered at the thought. As much as he wanted to forget all of that, he couldn't. Now, he was out in the middle of a forest, with no food or supplies. He knew he'd be able to find something in the city, but there was no way he was going back there. Unless he could find a food source out here, he wouldn't be eating for a while. A ferret scurried into view. Ralph watched, wondering if he'd be able to catch it. It seemed to be completely oblivious to his presence. He figured he might as well give it a go. He prepared to take off. He was just about to swoop down to catch it when he heard a scream in the distance.

The ferret managed to get away, but Ralph didn't even notice. He was focusing on the figures moving towards him. He tried to stay motionless as they got closer. If these guys were anything like the people in Metropolis, which, judging by the scream, they probably were, he would be in trouble if they saw him.
There were three of them - a dragon, a golem, and a gryphon.
"Look at all the stuff we got from her." The dragon said, resting by the tree. "I'd say that's enough for today, don't you think?"
The golem sighed. "That won't last long. we need more."
"You two can go ahead and find more. I'll wait here."
"WE AREN'T GOING ALONE! YOU'RE COMING WITH US!"
The golem's sudden anger kind of startled Ralph. He jumped slightly, then felt a sharp pain in his back as one of his feathers got caught on a stray twig. He started to panic as the feather slowly drifted down. It landed right in the middle of the group of bandits, who all looked up and immediately saw him.

He flew away from there as fast as he could. The dragon and gryphon flew up in pursuit, while the golem, lacking wings, pushed trees and bushes aside to follow them. Ralph turned his head around to shoot a fireball at one of them, and a surprised yelp of pain told him that he'd hit someone.
"I'm fine. Keep going."
As he turned around to shoot another fireball, he was hit with a bolt of electricity. This slowed him down enough for the gryphon to catch up. He grabbed on to one of his wings, and seconds later the dragon grabbed the other one.
He tried to break free from their grasp, but as much as he tried, he couldn't. The dragon and gryphon slowly lowered him to the ground, and pinned him there. He could hear the golem's heavy footsteps coming towards them.

I might be able to post IC later today.

They all followed the Tyranitar, with no idea where they were going. Josh was getting worse. He was having trouble keeping his eyes open at this point, which Matt immediately noticed. "Oh, that's not good." He said, examining Josh more closely. "He's starting to lose consciousness. We don't have much time left."
Just as he was about to drift off, Josh felt himself drop into cold water. Heimmediately started to feel better. Floating up to the surface, he saw what appeared to be the Tyranitar's home.
Matt was floating beside the pool. "Are you all right?
"I'm fine now."
He let out a sigh of relief. "I was beginning to think you wouldn't make it. Water can be rather difficult to find underground."

Josh took some time to look around. There were posters of a group known as Team ACT lining the walls. Josh had never heard of them, but from what he was hearing they were quite famous up on the surface. There was also an egg in the middle of the room, which Josh found odd. The Tyranitar, whose name was apparently Crater, explained that he found a Victini down by the beach, who for some reason kept turning into an egg.

Yeah, it's done.

I removed the message above my app. Sorry if it was a little confusing.

It seemed like the Tyranitar was going to win. Nobody here could do any noticeable damage to him. Just when Josh started to give up hope, something amazing happened. The Tyranitar used Stone Edge on Anthony, as he had done several times now. However, this time Anthony didn't end up having to use another reviver seed. He managed to survive the attack, and on top of that, he retaliated with an attack that seemed to actually do some decent damage. Josh had seen him use it before, back in Beach Cave, but he was still surprised. He'd almost forgot that Anthony knew Counter.

Despite their small moment of success, the Tyranitar was still standing. He was about to attack Anthony, when a Mawile jumped between them. "DAD, STOP!"
The fight had ceased as soon as they'd realized they were fighting a team of explorers. On top of that, the monstrous, rampaging Tyranitar seemed to be the Mawile's father. As confused as Josh was, he was glad the fight was finally over.
Matt picked up the bucket, bringing Josh with him as he followed the Tyranitar. Hopefully this wouldn't take too long. Josh was drying out fast, and needed water as soon as possible.

I got my app done. Let me know if there's anything wrong with it.

Dragon's Awakening

Ralph Ivey

Name: Ralph Ivey
Gender: Male
Species: Phoenix
Age: 32
Appearance: Ralph is around the average size for his species. His neck is rather long, and he has a slightly larger wingspan than most birds his size. Bright red feathers cover most of his body, with a few slightly darker feathers on his wings and tail. He also has a black crest on his head.
Bio: Ralph's early years weren't anything out of the ordinary. He lived with his parents, both of which had stable careers. He managed to get good grades, and didn't get in trouble too often. He was an honor roll student in high school, and was on most of the school's sports teams. He eventually graduated from teacher's college, and ended up as a substitute teacher for several years. He then got a permanent job as a high school Phys. Ed teacher, at the same high school he used to go to.

Everything was going fine for about five years after that, but then strange things started happening. People were turning into creatures from myths and legends. There were some Dragons and Gryphons roaming around, as well as some creatures that he'd never seen before - giant blobs, for instance. He himself had turned into a Phoenix, and he also gained the ability to shoot fire (He nearly lit his house on fire when he discovered this).

Upon leaving his home, he saw the chaos that was going on around him. It was as if everyone had completely lost their minds. He decided the city was the worst place to be at a time like this. Leaving everything behind, he got himself as far away from there as possible. Once he had gotten away from the anarchy of the city, the rest of his journey was rather easy. He is currently living in a wooded area, and although he can still see buildings if he flies high enough, he still hasn't run into anybody since he left.
Powers: He can create and manipulate fire and lava, although he rarely uses the latter because of how difficult it is to control. For now, he can only shoot small fireballs at an opponent, and create very small amounts of lava, but he has a feeling that his powers will improve over time.
Weaknesses: He prefers to fight at long ranges, and for a good reason. Once the enemy manages to get close enough, he'll have a lot of trouble hitting them with his magic attacks. Since he isn't too good with physical attacks, he won't be able to do much at close range.

I wasn't in the original due to me being busy with school, but I'm pretty sure I'll be able to join this time.

Despite all of their efforts to bring down the Tyranitar, it didn't seem like this would end well. He was able to shrug off even super effective attacks, Matt couldn't do anything besides put up screens, Anthony had already gone through two reviver seeds, and Shannon was nowhere to be found.
Josh fired another Water Gun. Just like last time, it did almost nothing. He was also pretty exhausted, which was weird. Matt seemed to notice this, and floated over to him immediately.
"Oh, this isn't good." He said. "We need to finish this as soon as possible. Josh needs water."
"I'll be...fine, Matt." Josh said. "I just need to get...one more..."
"No! Absolutely not! It's the only thing keeping you alive right now."
"I...can help...still...look." Josh aimed a Smokescreen up at the Tyranitar, creating a dark cloud around its head.
"Alright, but just don't use any water attacks."
Now that Josh was in no shape to do anything, the odds were really against them. There was no way Hex and Anthony could do this on their own. Wherever Shannon was, they needed him.
