With energetic movements, Carlos amde his way to the Ranger Station with a smile on his face. What was it about this new beginning that had him feeling so cheerful? It didn't really matter, since the feeling was there.
According to the woman he had asked for directions from, there were two choices. Choice from only a few at the Lab, or huge possibilities with no choice at the Ranger Station. It was quite the decision, and there was no telling the effect it would have on his future here in Cheyenne
Well, a little randomness was quite attractive to someone like Carlos, and so he bounced up to the Ranger Tent with a boundless energy and stuck his head through the tent flap, not knowing the real etiquette of acquiring a Pokémon

::mimejr:: A strange cackle emerged from the sky as a woman on a broom descended before Carlos, her broom glowing with a mysterious purple power until she hopped off of it. Her amusing, playful eyes were combined with a cold, calculating stride as the broom tilted vertically to fit into her hands. The Mime Jr that had been happily perched on her shoulder matched her gaze, letting out a small snicker as a strange shockwave went through the earth, making it vibrate with power. "That...was not my doing." She finally commented, referring to the strange sensation that went through all of their bodies. You'd have to be crazy to not feel it. Even her Mime Jr temporarily forgot his copy habit and appeared frightened of the strange, mysterious occurrence. "So. You want something with the rangers?" She asked, appearing to be friendly before completely ignoring Carlos as she walked in the tent, letting the tent flap fall on his face if he let it. [/font]

Surely it was the Mime Jr that was making that happen? If not, he was really facing a real live witch. And if so... well he had been afraid of witches ever since his grandmother had pretended her Shuppet was summoned by magic powers and her Delcatty was her familiar. Terror ensued.
But that was nothing compared to the poor guy's reaction when the ground shook. 2W-woah," he stammered, trying to keep his voice steady. The tent flap smacked him in a face, making him mumble in pain, before he followed her in. "Uh, yeah. I'm looking for my Starter. Do you guys sell food here too?" He asked this with a smile. All that was missing was the Bishonen sparkle.

::http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n103/emuritto/cheypok/439.png:: Anonymous Witch !"Your starter, you say." Muttered the witch in response to his request. "He will take care of it." She continued, and by then her Mime Jr. had already dissapeared miraculously off of her shoulder. It would appear that she'd poofed him away into the enclosure behind them so that he could locate a friend for their guest.
Now that the two were alone, the witch walked slowly towards the water gallon, twirling her finger and chanting a quick spell in the process. Immediately one pack of items floated up out of a cabinet and soared through the air towards Carlos, enchanted by the witch's magic.
She took two cups for she and Carlos, filling them both with water and setting them on the table. Then, removing some suspicious-looking herbs from the folds of her robe, she dropped them into each cup, after which she raised her hands over the drinks and silently chanted another spell. This caused the water to warm up to become tea.
Reaching out, she grasped one of the cups and took a long sip of her concoction before answering Carlos' earlier question. "We don't sell food. However, I could make something for you..." She said, a devious snicker leaving the side of her mouth.
The other cup she made was intended for Carlos, which she made clear by pushing it (magically, of course) closer towards him.

OOC: Nah, it's funny. XD
IC: As the Mine Jr vanished, seemingly into thin air, Carlos blinked. Wow... What sort of place had he just walked into? His feeling of nervousness was increased when the witch-like woman mystically made a dark potion... or possibly a cup of tea.
Despite the odd making of the drink, Carlos took it, and was pleased to find it was quite delicious. "Cheers," Carlos smiled as he raised the glass, taking a second sip of the hot tea.

Was that a Kecleon? How odd. Taking the Great Ball numbly, looking at the oddly... squiggling line, he threw it.
OOC: SHIT POST IS SHIT LOW ON MUSE.

The Great Ball twirled in the air as it landed on the empty space on the table, recoiling back into the air as it struck the line in the dead center. Whatever was in there quickly was sucked inside, becoming small and compact as the blue sphere trembled with excitement on the table. The Great Ball sparked from the power outage, getting the young woman's attention, but paid no mind seeing that the capture was complete. "Very good, you can now throw a ball. Would you maybe...be capable of battling, I wonder?" She asked with a mischievous look in her eyes. Her Mime Jr, being her oldest partner, knew that it was not required for him to work any longer. Instead, he enjoyed the taste of the hot tea as the witch made her suggestion. You Get:
Kecleon Level: 5 Ability: {Color Change} Attacks: Bind, Scratch, Lick, Astonish, Tail Whip, Thief
"My darling Alabam would enjoy some exercise, and I have some healing potions that would do you some good. What do you say?" She added, taking out a Love Ball and releasing a small Cherubi from within it. The adorable pink Pokemon wiggled the leaf on its head as it looked at the stranger with friendly, trusting eyes. ::Cherubi:: Level 5 Fight? [/font]

As the Pokemon was captured, the witch-like woman asked him whether or not he could battle... Carlos wasn't sure. It was his first time with a Pokemon of his own. Any other encounters had been wild or belonged to his stepfather or mother and father. Did he have the confidence to battle?
"If you're asking me to battle, sure," he replied uncertainly, holding the Great Ball in both hands.

Anonymous Witch ! Her lips curled in a smile at his reply. "Exellent," She said. "Then let me set up."
All too suddenly, the tent and table dissapeared into thin air, and she and Carlos were separated by a large field which she poofed into existence herself. Ever the multi-caster, her pokemon, Alabam, was already poised in a battling stance a few meters in front of her.
Her face confident, she called to the fledgling trainer. "You can go first."

Carlos smiled to himself as they appeared in a battlefield. This woman couldn't really surprise him now, but her spells were certainly entertaining. Sending out his Kecleon, he gave an order. Or he would have, if he knew what attacks he had... He had a tail... and he had a tongue, right? Sooo. "Use Tail Whip and Tong... I MEAN LICK!" yelled Carlos, cauing his Kecleon to blink in confusion. When he comprehended the order, he wagged his tail tauntingly at the berry-like Pokemon, which looked so delectable he had to stop himself from clampin his teeth down on the little thing. ::kecleon:: Kecleon used Tail Whip and Lick.

"Hmth. Not even knowing your own Pokemon's attacks. Would you like a book?" She scored, snapping her fingers as an encyclopedia of Pokemon appeared in mid-air, magically floating over to Carlos. The pages flipped through the book for him, revealing the page all about Kecleons. She sighed as she examined her nails, clearly annoyed at his lack of knowledge. Still, it looked as if Alabam was having some trouble. She actually just got the dear herself, because a trainer was so embarrassed to be seen with something so cute and pink, that they just ran away. What a moron. The Tail Whip was scary as it waved tauntingly in the air, a constant threat that it could strike at her small form. She whimpered when the Lick caught her by surprise, licking her slowly from bottom up. <Eww!> She cried, clearly disgusted with the move. She almost freezed on the spot, but snapped out of it before she could be paralyzed. Time for her to fight now! "Tackle." The anonymous witch called, showing some concern for the little Cherubi. With a huff, the pink Pokemon charged forward, aiming for the red line on the Kecleon's stomach. Ready, aim, gogogogo! Level 5 (Defense -1) Hit by Lick Uses Tackle [/font]

Bullseye! The Kecleon was thrown back with a cry of pain and irritation, his tail flicking up and down to display his irritation to the cherry-like Pokemon, before looking to his new Trainer for orders. As the book appeared, pages flipped to the section on Kecleon, Carlos quickly scanned it, mumbling what he read under his breath. Another Tail Whip would be good... and surely binding the smaller Pokemon would even the odds a little. Well, that was that settled. "Tail Whip and Bind," demanded Carlos. He hoped the witch couldn't read minds as his new Pokemon wagged its tail again, before rushing towards the smaller Pokemon and extending his tail in an attempt to squeeze the Cherubi painfully. ::kecleon:: Kecleon used Tail Whip and Bind.

The good thing about Bind, from what the Witch knew from the depths of the book, was that it was only similar in some aspects to Wrap. It was not a move that continued for multiple turns, signaling the weakness of the Pokemon using it. If it could only bind her poor Cherubi for less than a turn, then it was most certainly the proper level for any trainer that was starting out. As predicted, Alabam was distracted by the wiggling tail, somehow expecting it to lash out at her at any moment. She was right, but it still caught her by surprise. The sudden motion had her all bonded up, squeezing her tightly before releasing her. She gasped, feeling her health get lower and lower. "Cherubi isn't the most defensive of Pokemon, I'm afraid. Alabam, either you win now or lose trying." Her eyes narrowed through her thin glasses, attention focused on the itty bitty Cherubi. The grass type gulped, knowing what was expected of her. She charged forward at the Kecleon, wondering if it would even make a different now if she kept Tackling him. Level 5 (Defense -2) Hit by Bind Uses Tackle [/font]

Now that the Cherubi's Defense had been lowered enough, Carlos decided to use Kecleon's speed to his advantage. As he was thrown back by the Tackle, bruised and a little tired, but still standing, Carlos had already decided what his next move would be. "Astonish, please," he ordered. Lunging forward with his face distorted into a pretty unnatural expression as he let out a cackling groan in an attempt to scare the Cherubi, while waves of red light surged through the air towards it. ::kecleon:: Level 5 Used Astonish. [/B]

When the Kecleon used the speedy, scary Astonish attak against Alabam, that Pokemon squealed with tears in her eyes, completely terrified. When he lashed out at her, she stumbled backwards, pretty close to her trainer's legs as she looked down at the Cherubi pitifully. The Cherubi attempted to get back up, but the witch let out a 'ssshhh' sound, scooping up the injured Pokemon into her arms. "Good match." She responded, without a hint of envy or jealousy for the new trainer. She wasn't the type to get sore over one little loss, oh no. In fact, she had accomplished her true job as a Pokemon Ranger, by preparing trainers for the wilderness. She waved her hands around in a mystic motion, a Potion appearing before the Kecleon in a ghostly, haunted manner. She made a squeezing motion with her hands, and the potion was used on the normal type, just enough to get him back up to full health. With a sinister smile, she then snapped her fingers, making the battle arena disappear, and oddly enough, Alabam and her figure were gone. Level 5 (Defense -2) Hit by Astonish. Has fainted. Carlos's Kecleon gains a level. [/font]
