Seamus appeared pleased once that was finished, seeing the Ultra Ball work to perfection against the lovely Volbeat. He would've requested Neon to retrieve the ball, but the poor girl could hardly stay still after all of those flashes. He sighed, deciding to let her rest in her Pokeball for the time being, after all, she had trainer quite a bit. Once she was tucked inside her small den, he held the heavy Ultra Ball in his hand, eying it with curiosity. It didn't spark; not like those Pokeballs. Perhaps what he heard about them were true, that they did have a superior catch rate. How interesting. Perhaps he would dissect one later when he had the time. Slipping the ball into his pocket, he mused over possible names, if he ever thought of using the creature in battle. Ruby skin...Sounded like Rubidium. Which was the name he decided to deem it, in silence of course. His legs went into a smooth stride along the long, uncut grass. It was a wild land,where he was going a bit farther from the pond. If there were any signs of wild berries, that would have been convenient. Unfortunately, he did not know much about berry species. For all he knew, he could stumble across a poisonous one.

As a matter of fact, there was a berry nearby. A nice, fat, plump and juicy purple berry, guarded by a (currently dozing) Slowpoke. Now, for one that didn't know about the species of berry, it might seem like quite a risk to take the thing. Then again, it could have it's benefits, as well. Perhaps if you were to ask the dozing Pokemon, it would tell you. Then again, Slowpoke had the potential of being a sleeping savage, and waking it could prove quite disastrous. I suppose it would all depend on how adventurous you were feeling, and how strong of level the Pokemon you carried were.
However, for the less brave at heart, a lonely Pokemon was wandering on a fallen log of some sort, humming slightly to itself and giggling as it tried to keep it's balance. Clearly a cheerful Pokemon, it wasn't much for battling, but it could grow into quite the strong Pokemon if one were to train it diligently. It's identity was obscured by some leaves; dare wandering closer?
Lastly, there was a squabbling off to the left. Sounded like two Pokemon fighting. Over what, and which Pokemon, this was currently unclear. But the sound was loud, and would be rather easy to locate.
Investigate any of these areas, or move on?

Seamus's hands wandered through several prickly bushes, flinching when the sticky seeds began to attach themselves to his jacket. Goodness, were they even in his long hair? ' Hibiscus tiliaceus', he groaned. Cottonwood. It wasn't natural for him to be the vain type, but he did enjoy cleanliness. As much as he didn't want to soil his hands, he had to push himself to get used to this type of environment. Even he once wanted to study the ecosystem, but then he trailed off into the chemistry of Pokemon somewhere along the road. "Hn?" His hands brushed against a bright, ripe berry in the foliage. It almost resembled a blackberry, or a blueberry. Except it had funky spikes on it. Some kind of protective body to save itself from predators, he assumed. He plucked it from the branch, only glancing down at the sleeping Slowpoke. Dare he experiment? Why he does! He got on his knees before the sleeping Slowpoke, and with his face right next to its face, he attempted to insert the said berry into the Slowpoke's mouth. If it gets sick, he figured, it would get sick. Then his curiosity would have been satisfied. Tagged: Mods/Admins. ooc:// Pokemon:[/font]

As juice stained the Slowpoke's mouth and an explosion of taste bombarded his senses, Slowpoke gasped and fell back, choking, but not quite going into that sensation of being unable to breathe. Still, even as he jumped to his feet, his small teeth punctured his soft pink tongue. With a howl, he scrambled back, looking at the Trainer who had caused this near catastrophic chain reaction with furious eyes. >Why did you do that?!< he demanded, licking the temming blood from his tongue's new puncture marks to clean them. ::slowpoke:: Mood: Irritated. Nervous.

Seamus stared at the Slowpoke's reflexes compared to the one he had met before. No doubt, this specimen was much better than the previous one. As the Pokemon spit and coughed from the unwelcome berry, he found no signs of other pain or discomfort. Nothing like sickness, or a sore belly. From what it appeared, the Slowpoke was alright. "So...how do you feel?" He asked, despite the Pokemon's hostile and confused look. If the berry had any sort of effect on it, this was the time to find out. Otherwise, he was going to have to search for more of these berries. It would be nice to provide his Pokemon with free, natural food that would boost his Pokemon's condition. The Slowpoke didn't look very different from before though. Maybe it took a while? Tagged: Mods/Admins. ooc:// Pokemon:[/font]

How did he feel?! >Well how to you think I feel, considering I just had a berry shoved down my neck?< he demanded, with no small amount of anger affecting his tone. As he glared at the Trainer, he felt his rage subside a little. But just a little. His natural wariness remained intact, his tail flicing from side to side and up and down to signal this nervousness. >What do you want?< he asked, taking an involuntary step back, his eyes never leaving the man in front of him. >Can I... help you?< Slowpoke all but spat out those last two words. ::slowpoke:: Mood: Wary.

"No effects, hm? Not feeling faster? Stronger? Less hungry?" The older man stood up tiredly, a bit bored at the lack of results in his experiment. All that happened was a change in mood, and emotions were not in his interests. Were they ever though, he wondered? He shrugged as if it couldn't be helped and took out Xenon's Pokeball, staring at it with mixed emotions before releasing him. <What?! What?! I was in the middle of a nap. Can't Pokémon nap anymore? What's 'n the heck is wit' 'im?> He grunted in a hoarse voice, still dry from snoring loudly in his Pokeball. At least the sphere could muffle the sounds, but it didn't make his throat any less dry. <You do something? Stupid. You're all stupid.> The Pineco ranted, cranky and fed up with the world. Yeah, everyone was out to get him. Yeah, he hated it. But at least he wasn't suicidal. Seamus appeared annoyed at the loud noises coming from his own Pokemon, but chose to push it aside for now. "Today, we test this." He pulled out a shiny Quick Claw from his pocket and hid it inside Xenon's shell, despite his loud protests about 'personal space'. Once it was snug inside, without a chance of falling out, the trainer glanced at the Slowpoke before issuing a command. "Frustration." The attack was made without much hesitation, feeling the need to take it out on somebody. Xenon first gave his trainer a swift shove in the leg before charging at the Slowpoke, ready to do some damage. The Quick Claw, however, did not change a thing so far. { Xenon } Level 14 Uses Frustration on Slowpoke* (and Seamus) Quick Claw Charged: 1/3 Tagged: Mods/Admins. ooc:// lol pissed Pineco.

Thrown back by the power of the attack, Slowpoke howled in a combination of anguish and fury as he righted himself, glaring at the Pineco with furious eyes. >First you attack me with a berry, and then you attack me with your Pokemon! How dare you! Take this, you fiend!< Narrowing his eyes, a haze of psychic energy began to form around Xenon. He would have to move fast if he wanted to escape it. ::slowpoke:: Mood: Furious.

<What's this about a berry? How 'da hell can you get attacked with a berry?!> The Pineco was literally glaring at Seamus as he said this, as if in disbelief at his trainer's actions. Oh god, migraine coming. Or maybe it was something along the lines of...A CONFUSION ATTACK OH GOD. The move sent him in a spiral, which thankfully he was used to due to his Rapid Spin, so no signs of confusion were apparent. However, his body felt sore from the area of impact. It was almost as if the wound was burning, making Xenon howl with pain. Awful, cursed trainer, making him fight so many pissed off Pokemon. "Take Down." Seamus commanded, knowing that the recoil damage would only fuel his Frustration's power. Of course, it only was as strong as the Pokemon's anger. So it seemed appropriate. The Pineco swore at the sound of the attack, loathing using it when he had better ones on hand. Charging rather boldly towards the Slowpoke with a reckless Take Down, there was no doubt that this powerful move would harm the user. ::pineco:: { Xenon } Level 14 Hit by Confusion. Uses Take Down.

Quite irritated by this nefarious trainer and his Pineco, but not so much as to bite back a response, the Slowpoke snorted. He had to defend himself, though honestly? Hadn’t the Pineco ever been attacked by a berry before? The things were sentient, he swore they were sometimes. Always falling on his head while he was napping. Though hopping into his mouth required a trainer’s assistance, he was sure it would have happened one day, sooner or later, without his help. <Hmph. That human of yours tried to suffocate me with one while I was napping.>
He would have continued on about what an abomination Seamus was for interrupting his nap -- there are some things, after all, that can never be done in nimiety -- but he was unable to do so. The Pineco, a gelid look in his angry eyes, was upon him, bashing into his tender stomach and back. Yelling out in pain, the Slowpoke could do little to avoid the onslaught. He just was not fast enough.
Furious, he let out a stream of water to push the attacking Pokemon away.

The Pineco only gave a dull nod at the Slowpoke's answer, actually believing it. That idiot trainer of his, having no idea how embarrassing it was going around in public with him. He was only that annoying. Honestly, he didn't know why Seamus wanted to keep him. Some weird bug fetish. He didn't know. As the Water Gun shot right after him, soaking his entire body with its cold and merciless rage, the Pineco felt something odd. As if a strange power was radiating around his entire body. Could it be...? That thing Seamus put in him?! As the blast of water shoved the Pineco through the tall grass, a mischievous smirk appeared in his eyes. <FRESCO. LET'S GO.> He shouted, a random catch-phrase he just thought of as he spun around swiftly through the grass. His entire body was pumping with energy, as if his Frustration attack was combined with the Rapid Spin. Both moves combined in one furious rage at that poor, poor Slowpoke. Seamus could only watch, completely stunned at this sudden change in nature. Why, he had doubts about that item, since it was free, but this was stunning.

The Slowpoke was painfully whacked in the side by the Pineco's Rapid Spin and Frustration. His little body sore from the attack. He shook his head and let out a Growl. A long slow Growl.
<Taaake this puuuunk.> He said then he shot a Water Gun at the Pineco. He was taking this Pine-thingy doooown! Though he wasn't sure what he was doing here in the first place, he thought he was heading for a nap!

<Punk? Punk? Oh no you didn't. You didn't just go there. You didn't just fucking call me a punk, ya pun-> The Pineco ranted, getting a mouthful of water as he was knocked back from the medium pressured attack. It wasn't a Hydro Pump, but it could sure hold its own in a Pokemon Battle. He spit out the water as if it was some vile substance, say, spit. "Get over it. Frustration." Seamus only raised an eyebrow, knowing that the more his Pineco hated him, the stronger the move. Of course, this was only good if his Pokemon obeyed him. So far, there hasn't been any giant signs of rebellion. Which was surprising, but he figured he would crack eventually. The Pineco huffed after the cold attack, shaking off some of the excess water droplets before charging ahead. Not nearly as fast as before, but he was still faster than that punk. The punk. He snarled, taking out his Frustration on this giant pink target was the best thing for him right now. ::pineco:: { Xenon } Level 14 Hit by Water Gun Uses Frustration Quick Claw Charge 1/3 Tagged: Mods/Admins. ooc:// derp.

Struck by the attack performed by the pinecone-like abomination, Slowpoke was pretty close to collapsing into a sleep not of his own choosing. Sentient of his failing state of health, but still incredibly angry at the disturbance, and equally aware of the Pineco’s irritation at constantly being shot in the face with water, the Slowpoke took a deep breath and shot one more Water Gun at his foe. The attack was weaker than his last shots had been thanks to how tired he was getting, but he did hope that it was just as annoying as the last blasts of water had been.

Xenon was weakening. This wasn't the first battle he had today, and the lack of healing was starting to show. Little concern was shown to the bug, since Seamus was well aware that he had more Pokemon under his command. Plus, they had beaten a Slowpoke earlier today, but had decided not to catch it. This one seemed stronger, and would've been more suitable for his collection. First though, Xenon needed to be strong. He needed to evolve. As he was hit by that tough Water Gun, exposing his weak special defense, he yelped as it took his health down even further. It was getting to be tough; the bulky defense Pokemon versus the bulky special defense Pokemon, but both still had energy. But only Xenon had his Quick Claw. "Frustration." Seamus ordered, knowing it was the strongest move the Pineco had. Although the bug did not fully hate him, it was strong enough to by-pass the rest of his attacks with the exception of Self-Destruct. Ranting and raving, the Pineco went all out against the Slowpoke for making him so cold and wet.

The Frustration knocked Slowpoke back, and he instinctively let loose a snarl at the prevailing Pineco. How could a Pokemon such as this; a living, breathing pinecone, beat one such as he? Although anything but intelligent, this Slowpoke was a proud creature, and this defeat was the pinnacle of humiliation. But he could surely last a little longer. The snarling growl would hopefully lower the attacking Pineco's offense, and he would soon back it up with a crippling psychic attack to make the Pineco's wounds sting that little bit more. Closing his eyes, having to focus that little bit more due to his own exhaustion and pain, Slowpoke formed a purple haze near the Pineco, snapping his eyes open as he made the distortion ripple violently, dealing damage to any unlucky enough to be caught in its web. ::slowpoke:: Slowpoke used Growl and Confusion.

"Protect." Seamus finally called, deciding to use the one move that Xenon had been withholding all of this time. As the snarl and wave of confusion came his way, his protective barrier harmlessly absorbed them into its depths, and he could only carry a smug look on his face in response. Sure, even with the Quick Claw charged, he couldn't attack, but this was good enough for him. "Well. You've certainly looked better." The trainer chuckled at the Pineco's exhausted state. The creature did appear worse than ever, and would probably go down very soon. In fact, he didn't doubt that a Confusion would take him down. Next turn, he figured, would be the best time to go all out. ::pineco:: { Xenon } Level 14 Quick Claw Charge: 3/3

Slowpoke, in his stupidity and fatigue, thought that the Pineco's protection had appeared all by itself and that it had somehow developed a resistance to Psychic attacks. Instead, he filled his lungs with water and brought it up to his mouth, ready to be fired at the Pineco as soon as its protection died down, leaving it vulnerable. When the shield vanished, Slowpoke sent out the Water Gun in a freezing jet aimed directly at the Pineco's face. ::slowpoke:: Slowpoke used Water Gun. [/B]

Xenon was dead lucky that time. Wild Pokemon, like in the games, often made inappropriate choices during battles. Usually that was why trainers were there to make sure they weren't complete dumbasses during the battle. Seamus wasn't surprised that the Slowpoke used the weaker attack, but was slightly relieved. Now Xenon could just wrap this up with his fully charged Quick Claw. " Frustration and Rapid Spin." He commanded, despite the lack of creativity. Take Down would've only recoiled the Pineco to death, so that wasn't a smart choice. And Self-destruct? No. The Pineco remained furious as he was soaked in that freezing cold water. Nasty saliva. <Hot dog you think you can just squirt at me when you please? You have another thing coming, ya rascal!> He hissed, suddenly spinning with all of his might as his Frustration attack had him bouncing off the walls towards the Slowpoke. Two physical attacks combined into one. One quick claw. How would it end?

Soon the pain finally got through to the Slowpoke's brain. Groaning out loud he sat on his hind. The Pineco was mean, he hurt him! <Oooooow.> He let out along slow groan before he got back on his four feet. He gathered the energy inside and opened his mouth. Shooting a a Water Gun at the Pineco he hoped he wouldnt have to do this any longer.
