The pokeball, once it had chimed with the confirmation of the catch, was quickly sent to the PC, and Quil glanced up from the empty space where it had once been. Well. That was going to take some getting used to.
The trainer shrugged and continued walking, he was almost at the city, a few more miles and he would be there. Following the path, Quil glanced around at the sky that was still steadily darkening, hopefully he would get there before night. His flashlight had died, so he might have to stop for the night. Twent minutes later Quil sighed, looking around, it was nearly pitch black. Only the glow of the moon illuminated the night.
Quil fumbled for a pokeball in his pocket, believing he had his new shadow charmander's pokeball in hand he released the pokemon. Soon, his Phanpy stood before him. Quil grunted, "Nope. I didn't want you."
<Well thaaanks.> Rolo replied sarcastically. Soon a Shadow Charmander appeared, blinking his eyes. The purple flame on his tail provided a needed warmth and light from the cold winter night. Quil leaned against a rock wall, and ordered Rolo to go collect some dry wood to start a fire. The pokemon obeyed, darting off into the dark.

Enjoying the Scenery?
{ Investigate the shiny thing on the ground? }
{ Check out that sweet smell? }
{ Both? Ignore Both? }
Not too far from where Quil and his Charmander were resting, a small twinkle from one of the rocks emerged out of nowhere. It would not have caught the human's eyes, but the fire lizard was practically staring directly at it. One motion of its tail would've revealed the pretty blue coloring that it had, perhaps dropped by some trainer passing by, or a Pokemon that was in a hurry. Nevertheless, finders keepers, right?
Out where Rolo was, everything seemed rather calm in the night's air. Crickets were chirping, calling out to each other in the bitter cold in order to stay warm in numbers, and the sky was rather clear. The stars were visible, giving off a faint light in the darkness of the route. There was only one that that stood out, and it was the sweetest of scents imaginable. Even the air seemed to have a pink coloring as it wavered near the Shadow Phanpy.

[[ I should totally be studying for finals right now. /fail ]]
The Shadow Charmander gazed around, alert, but bored. Being used as a lantern was not the most exciting job. Quil leaned against the wall, eyes closed, deep breaths indicating he was asleep. The charmander sighed quietly and fixated his gaze straight ahead again. His brown furrowed as he stared at a rock pile in front of him. Had he just seen something? Curious, he wandered forward and waved his tail towards it, illuminating the twinkling blue item. Interest sparked, he dug the item out of the rock pile and stared at it.
What was it? Deciding he should inform his trainer of what he found, he prodded the disgruntled Quil awake and presented the recently discovered item. Quil rubbed his eyes blearily as he stared at unfocused object in front of him. Oh crap. He left his contacts in. Quil attemped to resolve that issue.
Meanwhile, Phanpy quite a pile of firewood collected and was just about to head back to the camp with it, when an enchanting scent caught his trunk. The elephantine pokemon, halted in his tracks and turned and wandered towards what almost seemed like a pink mist. It smelled so sweet and wonderful, he wanted to bottle it up and take the scent with him. Rolo, enchanted, and curious followed the scent. Was it coming from a flower? Berry? Pokemon?

Stuff Happens!
{ Illumise } Using Sweet Scent. Stop her?
Nothing thwarted the Charmander from claiming the item, as it was just resting there. Nothing else stirred in the area around them, making it seem peaceful even though Wild Pokémon did tend to roam the area. It appeared to be a necklace, but the string that was attached was snapped in two. As it was tilted around, some kind of mystic water from within it moved about. The water seemed to enspirit it with some kind of magical power, creating an awareness of the water that was in the area. Maybe it had some kind of other ability? Who knows. Either way, it was theirs now.
Keep the shiny thing?
<Ah, now this place is starting to smell fresh.> An Illumise giggled as she decorated the night sky with patterns of pink smog. It was puffy, turning into the shapes of flowers that she had seen on her travels. Earlier, she had been bored and decided to practice some contest moves she saw a coordinator do earlier, and nearly mastered making shapes out of her Sweet Scent. It wasn't an easy thing to do, especially when it spread out so quickly after making it.
<It was so awful before...the smell of dirty water.> She directed her eyes at the pond with disapproval. She wasn't from around here, so to say that she was used to the place was a complete lie. Other Pokémon seemed to be attracted by the sweet scent, but didn't interact with her, instead, preferring to sleep near the yummy scent.

Quil after nearly breaking his contact into pieces and destroying his eye, blearily glanced up, finally able to see clearly. The cold drying up his watery eyes. Damn it. It looked like he had been crying. Now with a much more natural looking scowl on his face, he refocused his attention towards the Shadow Charmander.
The Shadow charmander had been waiting patiently for his trainer's attention and once he had finally gotten it, he held his hands out again to reveal this mysterious prize.
Quil ginerly took it out of the hands of the fire-type and examined it closely. It seemed to be some kind of broken necklace. But it was more than that, he could tell. It seemed to have a mysterious power around it. The water within sloshed around mysteriously. Quil, deciding it was worth some value, gently tucked into the side pocket of his backpack. He would have someone look at it to find out what it actually was, but for now, he would just have to wonder.
Now where had that darned Phanpy gone off to? "ROLO!" he hollered, waiting for a reply.
---
::phanpy::
Rolo following the scent, was soon wrapped in bliss as it became stronger and stronger until it was almost overpowering. The elephantine pokemon soon caught sight of an Illumise, could that be the pokemon making this sweet scent? The shadow phanpy snuck up behind the pokemon while it was seemingly talking to itself and when he was nearly looking over her shoulder, he piped in.
< So it is you making this smell. It's very nice. > Rolo said, trumpeting happily.
But he probably scared the shit out of her with his creepy stalking and was probably about to get tackled. Let's hope not, he thought with a frown. Perhaps he should have thought this plan out better.

Stuff Happens!
{ Illumise }
Hearing the sound of a male at this late hour, she blushed and immediately flew behind the shelter of a tree, peeking out only to see the shadowy glow of a Phanpy. Goodness, if there was a Volbeat out and about, she might just get harassed again. A Phanpy at least would be decent to her, as a friend, right? Plus, he seemed young. So he didn't appear to be mean or indecent. <Y-Yes.> She sighed, relaxing a little as she slowly moved away from her hiding spot, rubbing the back of her head bashfully.
<I thought I could try making shapes with my Sweet Scent, but it turned out to be really hard.> The Illumise looked up at the sky, seeing that already, her flowers of pink smoke had dissolved into the stars. So much for that effort, but it was still an improvement from where she started.
<You look pretty, as if you're on fire.> Now that she got a better look at the ground type, he did have a strong purple aura. It didn't strike her as 'evil' or 'dangerous', especially when he was so small.

Quil, with an exasperated sigh, hearing no response from his pokemon, quickly gathered his stuff and with the Shadow Charmander lighting the way, he made his way to where he had seen the Phanpy last. The Shadow Charmander, catching a lingering smell of sweetness, followed the trail, which would eventually lead them to the Illumise and the Phanpy.
Rolo jumped slightly as the Illumise quickly darted away behind a tree, peeking out. <Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you!> he said, a twinge of guilt panging throughout him. The Illumise seemed to be fine with him though, allowing the pokemon to let out a breath of relief, he nodded happily while the pokemon was talking. Rolo quite enjoyed making new friends.
<I'm sure you're great at it! Can you show me?? he asked eager to see shapes made out of a pink mist. As he recieved the compliment, Rolo blushed. <Well thank you! We kinda match!> he said, pointing out the obvious.
Quil stormed towards his Phanpy, having finally caught sight of the pokemon. Rolo was definentely not collecting firewood. Instead he was standing around gossiping with an Illumise like they were old ladies. "What are you doing? You're supposed to be collecting firewood!" he said, narrowing his eyes at the two pokemon.
Rolo gulped and glanced at the Illumise, < You might want to leave... like now. It was nice meeting you though!> he whispered, before turning to Quil. <Sorry... I have a pile of wood back there.>
Quil ignored the Phanpy and glanced at the Illumise, "Charmander, use Scary Face and then Ember."
The Charmander nodded, quickl;y catching the eye of the Illumise and snarled, his eyes glowing red and his purple aura growing greater as he used the move to terrify the oppponent and make them drop two speed stages. Then, running towards the pokemon, he spit flames out at the bug-type, hoping they had hit her.

Stuff Happens!
{ Illumise } (Speed -2) Hit by Ember Super Effective Uses Moonlight at Night! Health mostly restored Tries to flee by flying!
<S-Show you? Of course. Let me try again.> She winked at the Phanpy, having a funny idea of making his form out of her own sweet scent. She started to fly into the air, practicing making little pink puffs of smoke (that wouldn't have any effect on anyone) until she heard some kind of stomping sound in the distance. Startled, she stopped and turned to face the human and a shadowy Charmander, both of which did not look happy. 'I should run?' The Phanpy's advice seemed good to take, as humans and fire were both a bad combination for her.
She nodded a good bye to the Phanpy, having a feeling that this was its trainer, so no harm would come to the shadow Pokemon. She started off, but this eerie feeling came over her. She glanced back and turned to see an extremely Scary Face coming right from the fire lizard, and with a gasp she found herself incapable of moving for that moment. The Embers managed to easily singe her body, even more powerful due to the fact that this Charmander was highly trained, considering which route it was on. <Kiaaahhh!> She screamed as she embers knocked her down to the snowy ground.
The cold burned along with the embers, but she had to get up. She had to heal. Her eyes glanced up towards the moon, and her body began to strongly glow with energy and power. The power of the time of day was actually healing her more than usual, making her appear undamaged. With a spiteful look towards the Charmander, she started to fly away, not wanting to deal with such a powerful Pokemon.

The Charmander's flame on his tail grew bigger as he became excited at the prospect of a battle. As his attacks all hit consectutively, he braced himself for a return attack. But instead the Illumise conintued to flee. Ticked off, the Charmander shouted out, <Where do you think you're going? We're having a battle right now! Don't be a coward!> he snapped, his fiesty personality showing through.
"Don't let her get away." Quil commanded in a quiet, but clear voice. So she could use Moonlight, that would be useful. "Use Ember."
The Phanpy looked racked with worry, he had really liked the Illumise. She had seemed so friendly and nice, and he hated seeing her in pain. <Watch out!> he yelled, seeing the Shadow Charmander about to shoot flames at her retreating back.

Pokemon battle ! The Illumise flew wildly, enspirited with fear and betrayal. To think that such a seemingly friendly Phanpy could betray her to a cruel trainer! A tear almost came through the film of her eye. Soon she heard the cry of a command and a shooting of ember; luckily, it only slightly singed her back as she continued to fly away. Regardless, her heart was palpitating with anxiety. Fire was a fearful strength, especially against the fragile bodies of insects.
How brazen the trainer was for thwarting her innocent practicing, even trying to hurt a young lady like her. She resolved never to trust foreign Pokémon again, having approached the zenith of her impatience.
The Illumise managed to outfly the trainer and charmander, disappearing out of sight.
Fled. Charmander gains .5 levels.

The odd trio stood there in silence as the Illumise got grazed by the attack, and continued flying onwards and away. Soon the Pokémon vanished in the darkness of the night and the trainer and two Pokémon stood in the woods for a while after that.
"Damnit."
The two Pokémon jumped at the sudden curse, but they had no time to react as Quil quickly marched away back towards where they came from. The Phanpy relaxed, letting out a breath of relief, he was glad the Pokémon had escaped the pain that the Charmander would have given her. However now he was fearful of what trouble he might be in for trying to help the Pokémon out. He followed, the shadow charmander right next to him.
The Phanpy collected his pile of firewood and once they returned back to the camp he began to arrange it in way in which it would hold and retain a fire well. The Charmander quickly lit it, and the trio was warmed by the fire. Quil leaned against the wall in stony silence, still brooding about the lost Pokémon.
The Phanpy frowned and wandered off into the woods again to get a drink of water from the nearby river. On his way to the bank of the river, he stumbled over a rock and face-planted on the ground. Rubbing his trunk, his eyes stung with unshed tears.

A Wild Pokemon Has Appeared !
#054: psyduck level fourteen.[/center][/font] A lonely psyduck watched through the snowy bushes as the phanpy began to move away from his friends. She followed him, feeling an overwhelming sense of joy. Maybe psyduck could be his friend too! He stalked watched the ground Pokémon until he had tripped over a rock and fell face first. With a rush, the psyduck jumped out of the bush and went to the pokemon's aid.
"You 'k?" Psyduck asked, tilting its head and doing so she felt the throbbing headache surge through her skull, "AAAAGH" She cried out, clutching her head with his hands. After a moment, she looked at the phanpy. If she wanted to make friends, she would have to try to make them like her first! "A-A-Are you 'k?" She asked again, worried that he did not hear her the first time.
interact?

::phanpy::
The Phanpy sat on the ground, feeling defeated, when suddendly an bright yellow flash appeared besides him. Rolo glanced up in sudden shock, and stared, befuddled at this... odd looking pokemon. There we no words to really describe how oddly proportionate this pokemon was. Suddendly realizing he had been staring for a while, he opened his mouth to reply but was quickly cut off by a shrill scream.
Rolo jumped up and backpedaled quickly, this pokemon was strange. He was feeling a little uncomfortable. The pokemon who had once been bent over in agony, was now asking the same question again.
<Um... yeah I'm alright?> he answered, making it a question, simply because he was so bewildered. <Are you okay?> he asked. <You kind of screamed...> he said, pointing out the obvious. <What are you anyways?> he finally asked, curiousity getting the better of him as he stepped towards the pokemon again.

A Wild Pokemon Has Appeared !
#054: psyduck level fourteen.[/center][/font] The psyduck frowned at his question, and shook his head, "I dunno what I am." It was not like she had any other friends that looked like her to compare! She felt her head throb like a techno song with a lot of bass. Oh no, it could not be time for one of her migraines! Not now!
"I-I was worried you had hurt yourself," each word reverberated in her head, but she beared it, "I'm okay, I just...I don't...I don't have any friends." She admitted, lowering her head and feeling the pain with it. She needed to stop moving, stop talking, but it was like word vomit. "Will you...be my...." She began, but she could not take it any longer! "OOOOOOOOOOOWWWWW" She screamed again, and started flailing her head hoping it would make things better, but instead it made everything so much worse.
flailing her head, screaming.

::phanpy::
"Oh. Okay." Rolo said, as he heard the response that the Psyduck didn't know what it was. It was obviously a very confused pokemon. "Well... do you have a name?" he questioned further, wanting to find out more about this odd pokemon.
Rolo frowned as the pokemon seemed to have more trouble speaking and was beginning to stutter and lower her head. Confused as to what point the Psyduck was getting at, he backed up slightly alarmed at the pokemon again and said in a calm voice, <Maybe you should take a few deep breaths and calm do->
<OOOOOOOOWWWWWWW>
The Phanpy, leapt up alarmed and rushed towards the pokemon. <Um. Um. Are you okay?? No what am I talking about. You're obviously not okay!> the pokemon said, freaking out internally. He had to do something to help! <Try to stay calm!> he said, gently but firmly pushing the pokemon down to the ground. Hopefully being on a flat surface laying down would help somewhat.
Rolo then rushed to the river and using his trunk like a modern day elephant, sucked up some water before running back. The water was almost too cold for comfort, but it couldn't make the Psyduck any worse... right?
The elephantine pokemon got back to where the Psyduck was within a minute and squirted the water all over the pokemon. He then sat, waiting anxiously to see if anything he had done had helped ease the pain.
Gosh this was one stressful pokemon.

The Psyduck was so preoccupied with her migraine that she didn't even notice the Phanphy's temporary retreat, clutching her skull with her clawed hands, letting out low moans of pain as the agonising headache continued to pulse through her. And by the time she had noticed that the elephant-like Pokemon had gone, it was too late to stop its plan, and she was summarily drenched in ice cold water, drawing a gasp from her beak, followed by a cry of shock and horror as she stood there; shivering and dripping. What was the meaning of that?! Sure she was a Water Type but it didn't mean that water was the cure to everything! The loud, cold Psyduck was about to give that Phanphy a piece of her limited mind until she realised something. The water had worked. The sheer shock of the ice cold torrent, or maybe water's legendary healing properties. Whatever! She had been cured. She stood in brief awe for a second, not sure of what to say, but then she broke out in a wide, goofy smile. >Oh thank you thank you than you!< she exclaimed, jumping up and down in her joy. ::psyduck::

The Phanpy let out a loud sigh of relief, and grinned at the Psyduck. <You seem a bit more normal now. I'm glad I could help! It's no problem at all.> The purple pokemon stepped towards the Psyduck and awkwardly tried to wipe some of the water off. <Sorry about the whole getting wet thing, but at least it worked?>
The Phanpy frowned, it was freezing out here and the Psyduck was soaking wet. <You're going to get really cold if you stay wet like that... do you want to come back to camp with me? We have a fire going!> Rolo grinned at the pokemon encouragly, <My trainer can be a little rude sometimes though... but just pay him no mind.>

The balmy Psyduck blinked. Not only had the Phanphy cured her of her headache; it was offering her a warm fire to rest her enervated body at as well. If they had some food as well, that would be all her needs gratified in one sitting. How delightful! Although her natural wariness around humans would usually be prevalent in her day to day life, the need to get warm, dry and fed was paramount on this occasion. >OK!< quacked the duck, cured of her painful headache, and now with some warmth and possibly even food to boot. It was about time her luck turned around for the better, and she welcomed it with open arms. Well... claws.

The Phanpy nodded in glee, he would be delighted to have this strange Pokémon join the group around the campfire! Rolo could learn more about this fasinating Psyduck! <Okay! Follow me then!> he said, walking back towards the campsite, hopefully with the duck following behind.
<So what's your name? I'm Rolo!> he questioned, as they emerged from the bushes into a warm glow. The campfire had grown to a well tended flame, and crackled with heat. Rolo plopped down near it happily, inviting the Psyduck to sit by him. <That's Inferno the Shadow Charmander, and Quil, my trainer.> he introduced.
Quil stared at his Pokémon in disbelief, another friend? Really? What was he going to do with this Phanpy. A strangled sigh escaped his lips and he stared upwards, okay. He would go with this for now. After all when he had barged in on that Illumise it had simply escaped. He could try letting Rolo do the friendly approach. Silently, he pulled out his pokedex and was informed that this odd looking Pokémon was a Psyduck.
<Oh! You're a Psyduck! Hear that? Thats cool, so wh-> Rolo was cut off by Inferno. <Hey you! You look wet. What happened?> he asked the Psyduck, curious as to why the Pokémon was still rather damp. <Its too cold to be swimming in that river.>

>Um. I'm Psyduck.... I don't have any other names,< mumbled the Psyduck, nodding her head. As they emerged into the campsite, warmth immediately flooded over her and she smiled. But that smile faded as she saw the Phanphy's human, who didn't look all that pleased to see her. And as for the Shadow Charmander... well she couldn't tell what it was thinking. As she sat down and placed her hands over the fire, enjoying the warmth and the balmy aroma of burning wood, the oddly coloured Charmander asked her a question. >Oh... uh,< she looked in the Charmander's direction. >I had a headache.... and I was kinda screaming in pain... and then Rolo sprayed me with water and it was all gone!< She closed her eyes, beaming happily. >But.... it was water, so I was wet as well,< she added, stating the obvious. ::psyduck::
