Letting out a cry of pain (due to the acid on his leg and Dark Frost's pain as well), he released Psyblade once more and growled angrily. "Get that thing off me!!" he yelled, continuing to struggle. Knowing what had to be done, Psyblade attacked with a double Psycho Cut due to his Quick Claw.

Weepinbell was no match for the powerful attacks being hurled it's way. With a hiss, it reluctantly released it's grip on the boy and shifted it's attention to Psyblade and Dark Frost. In a fit of rage, it hurled a flurry of razor-sharp leafs at both pokemon.
Syl snickered. "Need some help?" He leaned back on the rock, crossing one leg over the other.

"Nah, it's cool" Chris laughed, watching his Pokemon. Psyblade used his Leaf Blade as a makeshift shield to protect himself from Razor Leaf. Dark Frost quickly leapt behind his teammate and was able to save himself as well. Psyblade then leapt at Weepinbell, using Psycho Cut.

Weepinbell finally gave up, falling to the ground with a thud. It flipped over, twitching twice before finally laying still.
Congrats! Weepinbell has fainted! Each participating pokemon have gained 1 level! To attempt a capture, toss a pokeball! Or move on.

Chris just returned his Pokemon, continuing to look at the oasis. "Well, asides from the acid threatening to digest my leg, that went pretty well" he laughed.

Syl nodded. "You're not going to catch the Weepinbell?" Eyebrow raised questioningly, gazing at the fallen pokemon. Ultraball was quickly readied, in case it was needed. After all, who in their right mind would pass up a perfectly good opportunity to catch a pokemon!

"Nah, there's no real need" Chris admitted. "I don't capture Pokemon unless I really need them." Giving a simple shrug of the shoulders, he returned to looking at the oasis.

With a shrug of his own, the ultraball was quickly lobbed at weepinbell. Even though he was merely a spectator, Syl would never pass up a chance to catch something new. Besides, victreebell was pretty cool.
The ultraball shook twice, before snapping open, wasted halves falling uselessly in the grass. Cursing softly, a second ball was tossed. This time, it held fast. A small smile spread across his lips as he wordlessly strode over to retrieve his new pokemon. It would make good trading fodder, anyways.
"Your loss," he muttered, as the orb disappeared from sight. It was sent to his house, where he kept all of his spare pokemon.

"Personally, I already have all that I need" Chris admitted. "The only time I capture a Pokemon now is if it wants to come with me, or it's legendary." Letting out a sigh, he examined the Icicle Plate. "15 more" he whispered, putting it back in his bag.

"You're seriously going to collect all of those?" Syl murmured, hopping off the rock on which he had been sitting and strolling to Chris's side. "God that's going to take forever..."
Whipping out a flask, he offered it to the new professor. "Care for a swig while we wait?"

"I've got no choice" Chris said, eying the flask carefully. "It's the only way I can bring back my parents...and what's in that flask anyway?" He seemed a little unsure about the flask, seeing as he had learned some things about Syl's...habits.

"Magic juice," he lied, thrusting it into Chris' face. "take a drink. It'll put hair on your chest." Without thinking, Syl himself took a drink, squeezing his eyes shut from the burn of the hard liquor. "That's good stuff."
After a pause to collect his wits (whatever he had left), he blinked. "Your parents are dead? That sucks."

Refusing the drink, (politely of course), Chris just turned away and said "Yeah, someone attacked our home in Fortree. My parents...our Gardevoir Selena...our Gallade Ralto...they all died. I was out at the time, coming home after failing to get a starter Pokemon from the lab in Littleroot Town. That's when I found Abel, being attacked by Magcargo. I saved him at my own risk, and he became my friend. He's been with me ever since I came to this region."

"That's pretty interesting," One hand on his hip, Syl once again dangled the flask in Chris' face. "You know you want a drink. C'mon, it's fuuuun. All of the cool kids are doing it."
While he sucked at peer pressure (he wasn't exactly a peer anyways), he found empathy to be better suited to his tastes. "At least you have one friend. Abel will probably be with you forever. And hey - at least he isn't stupid like my Charizard."

Chris just stared at the flask, unsure of whether he actually wanted to drink what was inside or not. "It's pretty much guaranteed that Abel will be with me forever" he said, turning away. "And maybe your Charizard isn't all that stupid. In fact, it might actually be smarter than you give him credit for."

Syl made a face, taking another swig of the flask. "I doubt it. You've clearly never encountered a stupid pokemon before. He wouldn't know his ass from a hole in the ground, unless I told him where it was."
As he spoke, he became acutely aware of a high pitched screech emanating from the lake. The water rippled, a green being rising to the surface. A politoed!
It splashed around in the lake, spraying the two trainers with water.

"Hey, thanks" Chris told the Poitoed with laughter. "I really needed that. I was getting a little hot." Summoning Psyblade, he said "It's your call." Psyblade gave a nod and prepared a double Leaf Blade, charging forward with the attacks.

Agile pokemon dived under the surface, effectively dodging the twin attacks. It splashed again, spraying Psyblade with water gun.
Syl groaned. "Damn it," shedding his thick black coat, even the black tank top below was soaked. "I hate water pokemon. I really, really, really do."

"Really?" Chris asked, enjoying the battle from his view. "I think water Pokemon are awesome." Psyblade was hit by the Water Gun, but this wasn't going to stop him. Lunging forward with another twin Leaf Blade, he was smiling with contentment from the battle so far.

"I hate getting wet," he groaned, wringing the water out of his coat. It splashed on the ground, dripping on his shoes in the process. "Damn it!"
Politoed again dove under the water, this time a bit too slowly. It was hit by the attacks, leaving a nasty gash in it's belly. Annoyed, it hid.
