[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,485][atrb=background,http://i52.tinypic.com/2d0nzpv.gif][atrb=cellpadding,15px,true] Scientist sat on a bench, calmly observing the scene unfolding before him. A pair of trainers battled in such a way that he'd never seen.
"Use Attact~" a saucy girl's voice called out, determined and crisp. Her pokemon, a Lopunny, gazed alluringly at the opposing Golem.
Her opponent, a good looking guy in his mid twenties, didn't seem phased by the attack. In fact, most of his attention was on the female trainer. "Good one, Val! Golem, use Rock Smash..."
It continued like that for what seemed like hours. Light puffs of snow fell from the dark sky, covering everything in a soundproof layer of white. It was a rare moment of calm for Reese.

"How's that egg holding up back there Tsu?" asked Teven his breath forming a small white cloud in front of his mouth as he spoke to the dragonite right behind him. He had decided to take a stroll through the park on this fine winter afternoon, but he was soon wondering if he should regret it. He hadn't had to take care of an egg for a long time, and he forgot, what the cold could do to them.
The dragonite let out a positive noise from its throat, it's tail swishing happily behind it, unintentionally erasing their tracks through the snow. In its arms it cradled an egg, it had been tasked by Teven to keep it warm and to protect it. The dragonite knew it was Teven's strongest pokemon, and it also knew thats why It was tasked with the egg, it wouldn't fail.
He shivered a little, and pulled his coat tighter around him, he was glad the snow was light today, and he hoped it wouldn't pick up. "If you're cold I could have flare take over?" he suggested to the dragonite, knowing a fire pokemon would be a lot warmer in this weather, but he received a sharp growl from the dragon pokemon.
He smiled, he knew better than to suggest something like that to Tsu he thought to himself as he passed by a couple of trainers battling. This intrigued him, he hadn't watched a battle he hadn't been a part of for some time so he took a seat on a bench across from some guy, who also seemed to be watching the battle.

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,485][atrb=background,http://i52.tinypic.com/2d0nzpv.gif][atrb=cellpadding,15px,true] Reese stared at intruder with an unwavering gaze. Mouth opened, words formed on his tongue, but for the life of him he couldn't remember what he said.
It was hard to tell exactly what was said, probably something like "you look like a wuss," but in broken english and a thick accent. When he was nervous, which was quite often, his old Orre accent slipped back up.
Clearing his throat, he stood, never breaking eye contact. "Sorry. Are you a trainer? I just started a few months ago, so I'm not very good," volunteering too much information was another bad habit of his. Uttering a frustrated noise, Reese sat back down.

Teven didn't respond to the first thing that was said, he didn't realize he was being spoken too in fact, he didn't do well with interaction with other humans, he didn't get along with too many of them, his gaze locked on the battle before him, but his attention was torn away from the spectacle upon being asked a question.
He looked towards the man with the thick accent, and stared at him strangely for a moment, as if just realizing that he was there. "Yes, I am" He pointed with his thumb at the dragonite who stood behind the bench he was on. "I've been a trainer for quite a while, been around pokemon all my life, they make good friends" He bro fisted the dragonite.
The dragonite smiled, and let out a positive whine, after being addressed, and used its free hand that wasn't holding the egg to bro fist Teven. Afterwards he went back to cradling the egg, its attention returning to the task.

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,485][atrb=background,http://i52.tinypic.com/2d0nzpv.gif][atrb=cellpadding,15px,true] Reese hesitated. He didn't like the looks of that dragonite. Back in the day, he'd heard rumors of his parents performing experiments on such pokemon.
"It looks strong," he said slowly, dark eyes memorizing every detail so he could write his observations down later. "I'm interested in how pokemon grow and evolve. Unfortunately mine are at a very low level right now. Would you care for a quick battle?"
Hand flew to his pocket, withdrawing two spheres and releasing their contents. A friendly Cleffa beamed at Teven and the Dragonite, and a Poliwag coiled it's tail around itself, disliking the snow.

Teven smiled, "He is very strong, he's been with me a very long time, I have others like him as well" he patted his pokeballs on his belt, and wondered if he should show off some, but the trainer did something unexpected.
A battle? Now this was more Teven's style, he could of course cream the trainer with his dragonite, but he was a nice guy even if people bothered him sometimes, he pulled two pokeballs from his own waist and tossed them at his feet. Revealing an Aron and a Riolu. "Don't worry I have some pokemon that need some training as well." He motioned to his partners.
The riolu bowed, and dropped into a battle stance, it was happy to be battling again, this was after all what it lived for. It smiled at the opposing pokemon, it was kind, but once the fight started it was all or nothing.
The aron shied away at first, it was still quite new to fighting, but It was its trainers wish, so it held itself steadfast and prepared itself to fight.
The dragonite, moved over and sat next to the bench, it brought its wings over its shoulders to shield the egg, while it watched the battle that was about to start.
"Your move!" Teven called brushing his white hair out his eyes, he was now in his element and was glad he took that walk today.
Egg incubated 3!

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,485][atrb=background,http://i52.tinypic.com/2d0nzpv.gif][atrb=cellpadding,15px,true] Reese forced a tight smile. Trainer was unused to battling other human beings-- wild pokemon battles were more his forte, but he'd give it a shot. He wasn't sure what kind of pokemon Aron and Riolu were. They looked tough, Aron's glossy coat reflected light in a way that Reese had never seen before.
"Apex, Hypnosis. And as for you, Astrid, use Charm on Riolu! Then Sing!"
Steel types would be hard to beat with normal-type attacks, but Apex concealed a surprise water-based attack that not even her trainer was aware of. The young Poliwag was first to act, the swirl on her belly rotating faster and faster, trying to catch Aron's gaze.
Slower Cleffa tried not to look at her partner, instead focusing on charming to lower attack. She then began to sing a sweet song to Riolu, melodic and complex, trying to lull it to sleep.
Reese wasn't sure either of these strategies would work. Luck was rarely on his side, after all.

Unfortunatly for Teven his pokemon were still quite inexperienced in the tricky ways of battle, and both of them fell asleep, flopping over each other as they passed out.
Teven sighed, "nice trick" the annoyance seeped into his voice, but it was cool. "C'mon guys this is a battle lets go!" he yelled, but it did him no good his pokemon kept snoozing.
The dragonite groaned at the inexperience of it teammates, he would have helped ,but he was still busy with that egg of Teven's
Egg Incubated 4!
Both of Teven's pokemon are asleep!

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,485][atrb=background,http://i52.tinypic.com/2d0nzpv.gif][atrb=cellpadding,15px,true]Lady luck on his side, Reese allowed a small smile to creep across his face. Not quite confident yet, his dark eyes were already thinking of his next move.
"Astrid use Charm on both pokemon, make sure they can barely hurt you. Apex... Do you know any water attacks?" He wasn't quite sure what moves the water-type had under her belt. This was her debut battle, which was probably a mistake on his part, but he was trying to go with the flow.
Apex grinned. Inhaling a sharp burst of air, a weak jet of water shot out of her mouth and towards Aron at an incredible rate. Her aim wasn't stellar, but she would try if it meant pleasing her trainer.
Astrid giggled, doing a cutesy dance to further lower the opposing pokemon's stats.

Aron was Slammed by the water attack, it hurt the pokemon a lot, but it wasn't out of the fight yet, luckily it was woken up by the gush of water, then he heard the command. "BODYSLAM!" the aron immediately took action against the poliwag. It charged forward, and jumped into the air preparing to slam its entire bulk into the poliwags face, unfortunately its attack was lowered a bit by the charm.
Depsite Teven's calls however the riolu remained asleep.
Teven saw that his Aron was awake, and gave it a quick command, and returned to trying to wake the riolu to no avail, he sighed.
The dragonite tried to wake the riolu itself, but its cries also fell on deaf ears, it had taken to stroking the egg with its tail gently, while it cried.
Incubation 5.
Aron used Body Slam on Poliwag Riolu is still asleep! Aron was hit by watergun, both pokemon where affected by charm!

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,485][atrb=background,http://i52.tinypic.com/2d0nzpv.gif][atrb=cellpadding,15px,true] Apex was unable to dodge out of the way in time, the full weight of Aron's crushing metal and rock body came down on her hard. She let out a squeal, and without waiting for Reese to think of an order, used another Water Gun at close range.
Astrid paced back and forth, not sure what to do to help her friend. She glanced at Reese, who was deep in thought.
"Use pound on Aron!" it was the best he could do on such short notice. Astrid knew a variety of annoying attacks, but when it came to raw power she was lacking.
With an angry squeal, she rushed to the aid of Apex, balling her little pink hand into a fist and using Pound.

Aron was slammed by the watergun once more, but the pound didn't phase it hardly at all. "Harden! then Bodyslam again on the Poliwag!" he heard, and focused and attempted to harden its steel plates against physical attack, and then jumped once more into the air to bodyslam the poliwag.
Thankfully the noises of battle woke up the Riolu, and it rejoined the fight once more, "Force palm!" it heard an exited Teven yell. He blushed some, and struck out at the cleffa with a glowing blue palm! Teven breathed a sigh of relief as the Riolu finally woke up, and issued battle commands to both of his pokemon, he would have to teach his pokemon how to attempt to counter pokemon with moves that put them to sleep.
The dragonite cheered them on, the egg shook slightly in his hands, which surprised him, but he kept a good hold on it, still rocking it back and forth.

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,485][atrb=background,http://i52.tinypic.com/2d0nzpv.gif][atrb=cellpadding,15px,true] Astrid was too slow to dodge the force palm; luckily, two rounds of Charm came to her aid, allowing her to survive the hit with relative ease. She giggled, trying not to appear tired or weak.
Apex was again hit by Body Slam. This time, she was slower to arise, the force of the blow binding her muscles.
Reese cocked an eyebrow curiously. A tackle-like move that could paralyze? This was new in his book. He made a mental note of it for later. Thoughts drifted to his backpack, which carried a small stash of drugs. If the battle did not go well for him, he'd have to resort to other methods of coping...
"Aromatherapy Astrid," the words surprised him. While reading up on Cleffa on his computer days before, he'd stumbled across a section that listed all the moves they could potentially know. Did his Astrid know this move?
Astrid beamed. The Cleffa emitted a soothing scent, and soon her partner's muscles loosened. Paralysis gone, the Poliwag glanced at Reese for an order. She knew what was coming, but the loyal Pokémon would rather have him say it.
"Water Gun on Aron," he said flatly, relieved that his little plan had worked.

That was all she wrote for the little aron, it held out as long as it could, but three hits from an attack like watergun was about all it could take. It Fainted on the spot once being slammed once more by the water.
"Good job!" Teven called returning the aron, he knew the aron was still pretty inexperienced, and would probably have lost, he hoped it had learned something from the battle though. "Ok Goku its just you and them now, Force palm on that Cleffa once more!" he ordered the riolu
Goku nodded and charged, he reared back his right arm and fired it forth palm open like a rocket at the cleffa, a blue light surrounding it.
Tsu groaned in disapproval, as the aron was taken out of the fight. The egg was still safely tucked away inside its wings.
Incubation 7! Aron Fainted! Goku used force palm on cleffa!

"Water Gun and Pound, you two. Don't give up just yet," he said slowly, never once taking his eyes off of Riolu.

The riolu deftly dodged the watergun, but it was totally taken by surprise when the cleffa's fist slammed into its face, and knocked it on its ass. It wasn't used to fighting two opponents alone, it tucked and rolled backwards to its feet. "Quick attack!" it heard, and with blinding speed rushed once more at the cleffa.
Teven groaned this fight wasn't going well, he hadn't expected riolu to have to fight both opponents alone, but at least he wasn't out of it yet. "You know for a beginner your pretty good maybe I should have used something that had a little more experience" he laughed.
The dragonite would have been glad to battle, but the egg came first, but it was ok his team needed more experience.

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width,485][atrb=background,http://i52.tinypic.com/2d0nzpv.gif][atrb=cellpadding,15px,true] Reese scratched his head, the Riolu's blinding speed confusing the trainer for a moment. "Where did you get those pokemon, anyway? I've never seen them before. I'm really more of a scientist than a trainer..." he trailed off, purposely excluding some of his other hobbies.
Astrid couldn't dodge the Quick Attack. She looked from side to side, trying to determine from which direction Riolu would strike. She was living life on the edge, less than half health and barely alert.
Wham! The attack struck from the left side, sending her flying backwards. Too weak to attack, she barely scrambled to her feet and just waited.
Apex narrowed her eyes. This time, she didn't wait for Reese, and fired a Water Gun square at Riolu, hoping to catch the little pokemon off-guard.

"All over...I've traveled a lot" Teven said wincing as his riolu was slammed into a snow mound by the water gun. "Quick attack again!" he called he figured the cleffa was at its limit, and it would make the fight a bit more fair if it was taken out.
Riolu nodded, and became a blue blur after picking itself up out of the slightly sloshy snow, and dashed towards the cleffa.
Dragonite yawned, wondering what was in this egg of his.

Astrid fell backwards in the snow, making a five-pointed star imprint in the powder. She sank in a few inches, before Reese was forced to recall her. "Good shot," he said bitterly, pocketing the orb. "Water Gun again, Apex! Don't lose this one!"
It was one-on-one now. Apex focused on Riolu, tracing it's every move. She sent a jet of water it's way, aim improving with every attack. She was getting better at this!

Teven nodded, now it was a bit more Even, the poliwag had a slight edge, but this fight wasnt quite over. "Force palm!" Teven said, hoping the riolu could hold out. It had been a while since he was on the ropes like this, a very long while, in fact there was a large chance that he could lose this one.
Riolu, spun on its heel taking the brunt of the watergun, but it didn't slow the pokemon down, even if it did hurt and lashed out with a glowing blue palm at the tadpole pokemon.
Dragonite felt the egg shake, and stood up abruptly wondering if something was happening. Incubation 10!!!! Riolu hit by watergun, Used Forcepalm
