Stepping into Route One, his Kecleon walking calmly alongside him, unnamed as of yet, Carlos took a deep breath of the fresh autumn air, before proceeding calmly through the dirt path, looking around at the trees and the stream.
"Early morning, isn't it?" remarked Carlos, as he stretched, arms behind his head for maximum results. "Well then, we have all day to get started. Pretty good, huh?" remarked Carlos, getting a grunt of agreement from Kecleon. "Well then, let's get started!" he beamed, and the two set off, carlos' heart racing for this new beginning.

<Oh. Oh. Hey. Hey. What's. That. Dun. Dun. Dun.> A Lotad spoke extremely dramatically as she made each step in the smooth, green grass. She kept it up to a consistent rhythm, looking around as sudden noises kept spooking her, making her stop and stare until she was certain that she was safe, before moving onward.
She heard the steps of something big approach her, and she instantly froze, not out of fear necessarily, but curiosity. What was it? Some part of her wanted to hide and merely watch the giant creature go by, but it was already too late. She underestimated those long legs of his, and Carlos ended up being a lot closer to her than she expected.
<Eek!> She cried out, overly surprised at his sudden appearance. Why, up close he was so tall. And big. And...scary. She squeaked as she backed away, wondering what he was going to do. Fight? She could fight. She knew how to. Kind of.

Caros blinked as he heard the squeak of a Lotad and looked down, seeing the much smaller figure staring fearfully at him. He smiled. Pokemon were such entertaining, impulsive creatures.
Bending down to be closer to her height, with his Kecleon nearby, he smiled warmly at the Lotad in an attempt at reassurance. "Hi there."

Lotad jumped back, squealing as if she was falling off a cliff, hanging on a limb for dear life. <S...s...scary...> She whimpered, continuing to back up. She shook her head back and forth, and frowned. Out of instinct, the Lotad reached vines toward the Kecleon, using absorb. They were quite slow, but they were her only defense mechanism. <EEP!> She squealed, still scared out of her mind.

Ack. Looked like the Lotad was either unfriendly or scared shitless. Such was the clear cut conclusion formed in Carlos' mind. As a small amount of health was suctioned from his form, his color changed to become a lime green, reflecting the activation of his ability and his change to a Grass Type. "Alright. Use Tail Whip and Lick," ordered Carlos, chewing his lip worriedly in concern for his Pokemon. The pained Kecleon complied, wagging his tail teasingly before rushing at the Lotad for a great big kiss on the lips lick on the face. ::kecleon:: Level 6 Uses Tail Whip and Lick. [/B]

The Lotad couldn't help but feel captivated by how adorable and elegant his tail looked when it moved. Swish, swish, swish! She couldn't help but giggle a little in amusement, inching closer. She was no cat, and didn't have the desire to pounce on it, but it was just so pretty. Agog at the idea of getting closer, however, she thought about this quite seriously. Maybe just a little - ACK! Since she'd been so distracted by his tail, he had managed to approach and Lick her without any resistance met.
<WH-WH-WHAAAAT THE HECK?>
The terrified shout was loud enough to startle a flock of nearby Starly out of a tree, and a no longer dozing Hoothoot snapped it's eyes open with a glare, obviously not appreciating having been woken from it's slumber. She winced in apologetic sympathy, and thankfully none of the other Pokémon on the route came to gang up on her because of the mishap.
Still... he'd licked her. How gross!
Though she wasn't fond of fighting, she had to forfend her poor dignity, and being licked wasn't a pleasant thing to recount to your friends. Those gossips would have it all over the route in no time. Shaking off her surprise and fear, she yet again tried to Absorb nutrients from her opponent, as payback for being licked.
Hit by Tail Whip and Lick!Lotad used Absorb!

The Absorb hit, but thanks to Kecleon's new Grass Type from the previous Absorb, it didn't suction much health. Kecleon closed an eye in pain for a second, before glaring at Lotad again. Tail Whip and Astonish," he ordered. Kecleon again wagged his tail at Lotad, before pulling the scariest face and making the most unnerving sound he could as waves of red light emerged from his form. ::kecleon:: Kecleon used Tail Whip and Astonish.

The Lotad was admittedly quite confused as her attack did very little damage. She didn't feel better in the least, so only a minimal amount of health must have been sapped. See, she'd never encountered a Kecleon before, and so she didn't know about their odd ability. Upon seeing him turn green, she'd simply thought it had to do with some other aspect of battling.
Her opponent then damn near scared the crap out of her however. She'd managed to dodge seeing the Tail Whip this time around, but she was definitely terrified by the Ghost-type move. That was no fair! This Kecleon was so rude! Well, well, well two could play at that game.
Growling fiercely, she then pulled the scariest face she could while running at the Kecleon with a loud shout of, <BWAHHH!>
::lotad:: Hit by Astonish, dodged Tail Whip! Lotad used Growl and Astonish!

Kecleon stumbled back, surprised by the Ghost Type move. Thankfully he didn't flinch, but as his color changed to a light purple, Carlos winced. Ghost type moves did more damage to Ghost types, so Carlos could only hope the Lotad wouldn't try Astonish for a second time or Kecleon would be taking heavy damage. That or try and make her flinch. "Astonish again," ordered Carlos nervously, and he was obeyed, his Kecleon releasing an intimidating glow that once again preceded several circular waves of scarlet light. ::kecleon:: Kecleon used Astonish.

Right, so usually people didn't fall for the same trick twice. It made you seem gullible, stupid, even. But this Lotad had never been the brightest bulb in the box, nor the sharpest tool in the shed, and so she damn near died of fright when the Kecleon came at her in that terrifying way of his, falling backward with a shriek of fright. Why the hell did he have to be so scary?
When she straightened up, she was too terrified to approach him again. W-What if he tried to scare her? She knew that she should probably try and scare him back, but she was frozen with fear. She just couldn't move! Oh, this wasn't good at all...
::lotad:: Hit by Astonish! Lotad flinched!

Carlos let out a small cheer as the Lotad flinch, a sentiment that was echoed by his Kecleon's grunt of approval. Now... what to do next? The Pokemon would probably be wise to Astonish now. Maybe getting a little more physical with his attacks would help. "Scratch it!" he yelled. Nodding, Kecleon rushed forward, unsheathing his claws before attempting a vertical scratch down the Lotad's body. ::kecleon:: Kecleon used Scratch. [/B]

The execution of a vicious Scratch attack snapped the terrified Lotad out of her state of shock. No, she couldn't allow that scary Pokemon to stop her from forfending herself! She wasn't going to faint, she wouldn't! Couldn't! As brave as the resolve was, the Pokemon was weakening slightly, the battle starting to take a bit of a toll on her. No, she'd be alright. She had to be alright. At any rate, she had one or two more hits in her, at least.
Determination renewed, the poor Pokemon fought past her fear and stared down the Kecleon bravely. On the count of three, she'd try and scare him right back, no matter how timid she was! One... two...
Three!
She rushed toward him, pulling a face and giving the loudest, most frightening shout she could muster. Terrified herself, she could only hope that fear had melted into enough determination that her attack would be effective against her foe.
::lotad:: Hit by Scratch! Slightly weakening... Lotad used Astonish!

Another Ghost Type Astonish. Kecleon yelled in pain. That must have hurt, thanks to the weakness of Ghost Types against their own kind. Thankfully he didn't flinch, but it had certainly done damage. "Lick!" ordered Carlos, and Kecleon rushed forward, tongue dripping with paralyzing saliva as he aimed for the Lotad's face. ::kecleon:: Kecleon used Lick. [/B]

Though she had resolved not to be scared again by the Kecleon and his stupid tricks, she had forgotten all about his disgusting tongue, and she quavered in disgust as fear as it slimed across her, covering her in the paralyzing fluids. <Oh, euuuugh!> she exclaimed, making a face. That was so gross! So, so gross! But she couldn't move, couldn't get it off her! God damn it, she was paralyzed, wasn't she?
Sure enough, even when she tried to get up the strength and movement to attack, she was frozen in place. She could hardly even gather up the strength to shout at him in a frightening manner, and so she was simply useless for this turn, and weakening by the second. Seems like this might be a losing battle for her, after all. Damn it!
::lotad:: Hit by Lick! Paralyzed and can't move! Lotad is paralyzed, and doesn't attack.

Carlos smiled widely as the Lotad became frozen in place. Fantastic! Things were really looking up. He didn't know how close he was to victory, but he knew that he was at least on the winning side. "Alright. Use Tail Whip while its paralyzed and follow up with Scratch! You're doing great!" he yelled. Kecleon obeyed, waving his tail tauntingly before rushing towards the little Lotad with claws bared to slice her. ::kecleon:: Kecleon used Tail Whip and Scratch. [/B]

She just couldn't take it anymore! With the combined power of all the attacks thus far, as well as the two that the Kecleon implemented this turn, the paralyzed Lotad really had no choice but to give up. Sighing in exhaustion, she went limp without another word, some of the paralyzing spit oozing down the side of her face. If she'd been conscious, she'd probably had commented on how gross this was, but alas, she was out like a light.
::lotad:: Hit by Growl and Scratch! Fainted! +1 level for Kecleon! Attempt capture?

Haha! His first victory. As his Kecleon reverted to his natural colorations, Carlos patted his head gently, making him turn up his lips in an expression similar to a smile, whih in turn made Carlos smile.
Were Pokeballs.... meant to spark like that? It had never happened to his family, so he was assuming that this electrical discharge wasn't something that happened every day. Nevertheless, he threw the ball at the Pokemon.

Pokemon encounter ! Lotad's limp, slobbered body was easy vaccuumed into the sparking pokeball. However, rather than drop to the floor like normal, the malfunctioning piece of machinery shook around in the air like a wild wingull while lashing out sparks around it. If the little Lotad hadn't been knocked out senseless in the battle, she was surely finished by the terrifying movements of the ball.
Eventually, the ball fell to the ground and wobbled to a stop, giving off a last spark before emitting a ping.
You caught a Lotad!

WOO! Carlos couldn't help letting out a delighted- and loud- cheer when the Pokeball pinged to signify a successful capture. Looked like it was time to move on. Giving his Kecleon a glance, he decided that now was a good time as any to give him a name. "Chameleon? Kay for short. It's cliched, but it's all I got." Kecleon shrugged with that same expression similar to a smile, so Carlos assumed he didn't have a problem with the new name.
"And you." He looked at the Pokeball containing his new Lotad. "I guess Lily would be a nice name for you." That said, he picked up the Pokeball, putting it in his belt before walking on.

::spoink:: Pokemon encounter ! It wasn't long after the successful capture that a perturbed little gray piglet bounced around on the road, looking around frantically for something. Whether or not Carlos would know that it was a Spoink in front of him, it was obvious that a piece of his body was missing - a round crevice between the oinklet's ears signified such.
Seeing that the treasure wasn't around there, Spoink turned and noticed the trainer. <Hey, man, you gotta help a brother out,> Pleaded the piglet as he bounced up to said human. <I lost my bling, yo, and I can't show up at my homedawg's party lookin' like this.>
Help him out, bro?
