Astro's sight was once again blocked by the Sand-Attack. This was getting tiring, the same old attack after the other. He hoped it was time to end this. Using Haden just in case it lasted longer than he thought, then he shot a Water Gun at the Pidgey once more.
Zane smirked. "This is your route? How lovely." He thought. Knowing that he would have no time to heal Astro from his battle with the Pidgey Zane would have to think on his feet.

Given that she had visibly weakened, the Pidgey was of course, yet again, unable to dodge Astro's attack. She held up her wings in hopeful defense as the water crashed over her, but her sodden feathers only weighed her down, and she fainted dead away, beak lolling open slightly in a comical expression. Of course, it was hardly funny if you were the Pidgey, but her so-called friends in the branches seemed to be enjoying themselves... until they realized she'd fainted. They actually felt sort of bad now, but it was too late. They'd pushed her out of the tree, and lo and behold, she'd paid the price.
::pidgey:: Hit by Water Gun. Has fainted! +1 level for Astro. What to do now...?
The Zigzagoon had definite swagger as he approached the trainer, muscles rippling under his zigged and zagged coat. He kept it well-groomed and sleek. Was he more talk than action? It was hard to tell simply by glancing at him, but void of any Pokemon, Zane probably didn't want to find out. <S'right,> the Pokemon confirmed, nodding. <All o' this route is under my control... neat, huh?> Was it... bragging?
Maybe if Zane could slowly make his way toward Astro, the big bully would change his tune...?

Astro wandered away from the Pidgey back to Zane's side. Seeing the Zigzagoon he was ready to attack but Zane stopped him. Looking down at the Zigzagoon he smirked. "You must be a very strong Zigzagoon to own this entire route. I'm sure you would want more power, now wouldn't you?" Zane was going to try and trick the Zigagoon into either
A. Letting him go B. Leading them to a pond C. Joining the team.
Either way, Zane wins.
::staryu:: Is by Zane's side.
Zane is trying to trick the Zigzagoon!

<Powa'? You say it like you have it, kid. But looking at you...heh. That's a laugh.> The Zigzagoon snickered, holding a paw up to his jaw. Look at that dirty Staryu too, covered in sand. It most likely didn't have much of a chance to bathe in a few days, poor, stupid Pokemon. With a smug look on his face, the Zigzagoon was able to catch onto Zane's ploy.
<I'd say sorreh, but I'm definitely not goin' ta lie. Your hair. Looks like someone threw up in it and decided to make it look like a fluffed up cat.> He said with a deep, rusty laugh that sounded like someone that lived in the streets a bit too long. Well, he might've been born a city Pokemon, but the forest was where the cool stuff was AT.
He gave another look at the Staryu, wondering what the hell kind of thing that was anyways. It looked too stupid to talk. <N' you. What. Cat got your tongue, mouthless?> He asked with a laugh, always finding some fault with the pair to laugh at. In his eyes, he was the best. The strongest. The boss.

Zane raised an eyebrow. This Zigzagoon must think he's all that. Now, how can he trick someone like this? Maybe a little flattery, but he just tried that. Zane felt a figure by his feet, probably Astro.
<Can I please attack him now and make him shut up already?> Astro asked, staring at the Pokemon. Zane shruged, he didn't really care what Astro did. Astro smirked, his body was fine for now, it was go time. Astro shot a Water Gun at the Zigagoon, then he quickly used Harden on himself in case of an attack. Of course, it might have worked the other why but why give out the element of surprise?

What the hell?! The Water Gun blasted the self proclaimed nobility onto his back. Arceus it was freezing! How he abominated those who challenged his authority. He was the goddam KING of Route One and everybody should be sentient of that fact. Even newcomers! Though he had planned to let them go after a little light teasing, this was unforgivable. >Eat tail, muthafucka!<" he bellowed with an adorable flick of his tail, before rushing at the Staryu in a Tackle attack with all of his strength. ::zigzagoon:: Mood: Furious Zigzagoon used Tail Whip and Tackle.

Astro was hit by the Tackle, though she was able to stand his ground because of the Harden the Zigzagoon was not messing around.
Zane watched the Zigagoon with a smirk. Strong and strong willed he was so catching it. "Harden then attack." He said. Astro used Harden, making himself rather hard once again then he shot a Water Gun at the Zigzagoon. The blast of water was bone chilling and was heading right for the Zigzagoon.

Hit by Water Gun Uses Tail Whip + Tackle
Another icy cold blast of water uncomfortably sunk within his fur, making feel all damp and cold and clean and wet, and many more unpleasant things. He shook the excess water out of his fur, much like a dog would except with an unhappier face. That weird star thing was going to regret it.
He noticed the Staryu get a glossier body, only each time he used Tail Whip, it looked normal. So it was raising its defense, huh? Well, he knew the best way to crush someone was to lower their defenses. Hitting them when they were weak was his ideal way to battle. It was what the professionals did, don't mock them. He wiggled his tail, attempting to be cute despite his cruel nature.
<Now take this, tuff guy.> He snarled, running at the Staryu with soaked, heavy fur. He wasn't slowed down too much, finding the cold wind that blew against him so refreshing, that he wanted to move. Like, a lot to stay warm.

The force of the Zigzagoon's body hit Astro at full force. The impact send him flying backwards. After landing in a pile of leaves he shook his body. He made low snarling sound as he used Harden once more. He didn't need Zane's command to do this. Then he went forewards and whot a bone chilling Water Gun at the Zigzagoon again.
Zane watched with a smirk. If he was going to keep the Zigagoon or not was still undecided. It was strong, yes. But would it prove to be usefull in the end? Maybe he'd end up trading it.

The Staryu's body became glossy again, so yet again the wannabe tough guy flicked his tail- in a motion more cute than threatening- in an attempt to remove that glint that seemed to raise its defense. That done, he yet again became the victim of a jet of water that utterly soaked him, leaving him even slower and even more waterlogged than before. And the added weight of his wet fur, combined with the power of the Staryu's water attacks, was starting to take its toll on the Zigzagoon's slender form. If only he was a Linoone! Then people would respect him more. He'd be the true king of not only Route One, but all of Cheyenne. Eyes glinting with resolve, he puffed with tiredness as he threw his bulk at the Staryu. ::zigzagoon:: Mood: Worried. Frustrated. Zigzagoon used Tail Whip and Tackle.

The Zigagoon's body rammed into Astro's with a THUD. Astro was sure lucky he had used Harden before, it made the impact a bit lighter. He shook his head and he snarled.
Zane watched with a smirk. The Zigagoon had no idea what was coming to him. Even if it wasn't a Zigzagoon Zane would catch it anyways. He needed more Pokemon on his team besides Astro.
"Defense then attack." Zane said, coldness in his voice. Astro hardened once again, his body becoming rock hard before he went in for a Tackle at the Zigagoon.

Zigzagoon Hit by Tackle (Critical Hit) Is Weakening. Capture/Battle?Uses Tackle
As that extra hard tackle rammed into his side, with the pointy end stabbing him in the hip, he found himself in more pain than usual. The blow had been a good one, that was for sure. Legs trembling, he was brought right to his knees as his eyes glanced over the Staryu's figure.
Suddenly he was taking a lot of interest in this tough guy, this cold, silent tough guy. Maybe he was seeing a bit of a role model in him. Not that he would ever admit it. Snorting, he shook his ragged fur as if to brush the damage aside, but that would've been impossible.
Using a Tail Whip would've taken too much time, and hell, he couldn't even make the effort to talk. He was too busy panting out of exhaustion from the battle. The most he could do was to use a Tackle against this strange, hard starfish. Though he might as well be running into a wall at this point.

Astro's body was soon filled with pain as the Zigzagoon's spikey body hit him. The impact sent him backwards. He shook his head and looked at Zane. Was it time to leave or finish it?
Zane looked at Astro then at the Zigzagoon. He nodded at his star shaped Pokemon and watched the battle continue.
Astro shot a Water Gun at the Zigzagoon. Not even bothering to use Harden that would have taken too much time. Besides, the Zigzagoon was weakening, right?

Unfortunately for Astro, the Zigzagoon was not quite weak enough to fall from just one more splash of water, though it certainly drove the supposedly-tough creature to the ground. Struggling to his paws, the Pokemon glared at the bouncing star and its trainer. They were strong. He wanted to be stronger. Maybe this wouldn’t be a bad thing, losing to this trainer.
But again, he’d never admit it. Not out loud. Even in his head, admitting defeat did not whet his appetite for being the best, not at all. He’d fight for as long as he could, and if he was presented with a Pokeball? Good. He’d take that opportune. But he wouldn’t admit that he did so willingly.
With the last of his strength, the Zigzagoon thrust his body at Astro in one last tackle.

Astro saw the Tackle coming. He dodged it, jumping to the side where he tumbled out of the way. He shook himself and used Haren one more time, just in case.
Then, he gathered up energy and shot a Water Gun at the Zigzagoon. The blast of cool water were right at the Zigzagoon.
Zane just had a blank cold stare at the Zigagoon. It was strong, yes. But reckless. He'd train it if he could catch it. He didn't care if it wanted to come with him or not, he was going to get it anyways.

Zigzagoon toppled back, but wasn't quite fast enough thanks to the lethargy his sopping wet fur had lent him. The Water Gun hit him full in the face. Actually bowled over by the effect of the freezing blast of water, Zigzagoon, self proclaimed lord of all he surveyed, had been overthrown... by a starfish. >F-fuck you,< spat the resentful raccoon, glaring up to the starfish and its cold eyed Trainer before his furry head slumped to the ground, his legs spread eagled as he gave into the encroaching blackness and fainted. ::zigzagoon:: Zigzagoon has fainted. Astro gains a leve. [/I]

Astro proudly walked back to Zane. Defeated the Zigzagoon finally, a tough battle it was.
Zane pulled out a Pokeball from his bag that hung over his shoulder. He poked the Zigzagoon to make sure it was out cold before he threw it at the Zigzagoon. Hoping it would just hit him and catch it he waited for the result.
x1 Used at Zigzagoon.

| [atrb=background,http://i584.photobucket.com/albums/ss283/amostprofoundseduction/elebg2.png][atrb=border,0,true] The red and white sphere sparked in protest as it closed itself around the Pokemon, shocking Zigzagoon into alertness momentarily. <What, in Arceus name - ouch!> he snarled, as it shocked him again. Thinking that this was some elaborate plan to end his life, the Zigzagoon bucked and writhed violently against the sides of the capsule, causing it to rock in a wild and unpredictable motion. It did so for several moments before finally busting open, expelling him onto the ground, where he inhaled a mouthful of dust that was about as savory as year-old cookies.
Struggling weakly to his paws, he made to threaten the trainer, attempting to act tough, but the shocks had further weakened his previously fainted state, and he didn't get very far before flopping back onto the path, eyes open in a listless, glazed stare. It was unclear whether the failed capture was the fault of the Pokeball or Pokemon, but the Zigzagoon was weakened, after all. Zane could always risk trying it again.

Zane scowled. Stupid powerouages. He pulled out a Heal Ball instead, hopefully this would work instead. He threw the pink ball at the Zigagoon, hoping it'd work this time. Stupid Pokeballs.
Zane used Heal Ball

Post by Sp❣rit on Nov 26, 2010 16:37:58 GMT -5
The Heal Ball struck him in the back, not as painful this time around, but as he was being sucked in he could tell it was going to be one hell of a ride. The heal ball was like a monster, dragging him inside its depths despite his claws that were dug into the earth. He only let out a muffled snarl as the ball snapped shut, forcing him to do battle with it.
Yet another opponent, huh? This girly pink ball wasn't about to stand a chance against him! No way! Not even a Growlithe could beat him at this point! He started to fight, and fight, but there was this soft scent from within the Pokeball. It calmed him, despite the sparks. Something was mysterious about it, as if it was tricking him to stop fighting just long enough for the Heal Ball to catch him.
DING!
