Laura cried out and growled as more health was suctioned from her, bringing her in rather dire need of health. Hmm... that Ranger had told him that Laura knew Assist, right? Maybe now was the time to try it. Laura. Assist. Dew, Growth and Absorb again." Jesse clutched the Stunky egg as he ordered this, its smooth surface warm to the touch. As the Sunkern grew, sending his vines at the male, Laura sent a barrage of green orbs at the Sunkern, trying to suction health from him. Dew used Growth and Absorb.

The Male Sunkern stood his ground, once again using Growth, and trying to pump himself up and look tougher than he was; while its special abilities grew, it glared at its opponents; not dodging dual absorbing, because the volley of green bubbles which came his way were a surprise. A sentret using absorb? How was that possible! It could feel it's health being drained already, and decided maybe it was a trick, maybe it was this other Sunkern who had done that. The commander of all the Sunkern targetted Dew, and sent forth a barrage of green orbs. ::sunkern:: Sunkern Leader ♂ was hit by Absorb, Absorb. It was not very affective. Used Growth and used Absorb on Dew.

Dew gasped as he was struck by the orbs, and stumbled, however that would look for a legless creature like Sunkern. He toppled over, breathing heavily, having finally succumbed to his low level and the barrage of Absorbs. Jesse gritted his teeth to stop himself from crying out as he scooped the little seedling up in his arms, cradling him close to his chest while also trying to support his egg. "You OK?" he asked softly, concerned for the seedling's well-being >Su...Sunkern kern,< squeaked the kernel, smiling comfortingly before closing his eyes and fainting. Jesse stepped forward with a snarl. In that moment, he wanted to step on the leader of the Sunkern and break its stupid head open. ...But no. He would be no better. Nobody deserved that, and the Sunkern would be without a leader. "Laura, Scratch," ordered Jesse, and the Sentret hissed as she lunged fort he Sentret's eyes. Her Trainer might not have the ability to maim this nasty little bully, but SHE did. Dew fainted.

The Sunkern leader was solemn as he noticed one of his own go down. Though they were not in alliance, he felt a certain kinship with the trained kernel, and for a moment, the male was distracted from the battle as he blinked sadly at the fallen Pokemon. <Rest well, brother,> he murmured, half to himself, half to the unconscious Dew. He paid no mind to the trainer, as Jesse was really not someone that concerned him at the moment.
While he was distracted, it gave the Sentret a perfect opening for attack. The Scratch attack hit him hard, despite her less than high level, and he felt himself getting slightly weaker. Frowning, he decided that this could not do. He, mighty leader of all Sunkern, could not fall in battle! He had to defend his honor! ... Or something like that, anyways.
Focusing his power, Sunkern closed his eyes and seemed almost at peace as he doubled in size again. Abandoning the choice of attacking this turn, he instead focused on keeping this pinnacle of power, staring at his foe expectantly.

"Defense Curl and Scratch, Laura. Now prop yourself up on your tail." Laura obeyed the first order, curling up momentarily to increase her defense. She then looked curiously at Jesse. What could possibly make him want her in such a position in the middle of battle? "Just do it," sighed Jesse, and, grumbling, Laura obeyed, muttering under her breath. "Now launch yourself into the air and use Scratch."...It was official. Her Trainer had lost his mind. Holding Dew in one hand and the Stunky egg in the other,ordering her to launch herself with her tail, he didn't exactly look the picture of mental stability. Pounding her tail on the ground, she used it to raise herself into the air and took a running leap, using her tail as momentum to come down on the Sunkern, raking her claws wherever they would hit. ::sentret:: Laura used Defense Curl and Scratch [/B] Incubated for 3 posts.[/B]

The Sunkern leader yelped as the claws came into his skin. He tumbled backwards and scowled as he got up. <You're tougher than I thought. No matter, I shall win anyways!> He exclaimed. Using Growth, his body became slightly bigger as he shot vines at the normal Pokemon, atemping a Ansorb to suck some energy out of it.

Jesse sighed in relief as he saw the Sunkern go down. It was almost over. Even as Laura yelped from the pain, he encouraged her. "Come on, Laura. Keep going. This'll help you get stronger," he coaxed. The Sentret forced herself to stand straight, snarling at the enemy. >Are you ready to lose, you overgrown bag of popcorn?< she snarled at the leader of the Sunkern, pointing a stubby hand at the Sunkern. >Go in for a Scratch, Laura," ordered Jesse, and the Sentret did just that, raising a claw as she rushed for the Sunkern, bringing it down as she approached the seedling, and the Stunky egg in Jesse's hands vibrated gently as she did so, almost as if they baby Stunky developing inside agreed with the attack. Laura used Scratch. Is weakening.

This wasn't going good, not at all. Staggering back, the sunkern winced, watching as a small piece of one of his leaves was torn off, slowly drifting towards the ground in front of his face. He was losing, but he couldn't lose, he had to win! Behind him the other sunkern were murmuring amongst themselves, clearly concerned about their mighty leader. He was losing! How could he lose, what was going on? <what do we do now> <he can still win!> <we're doomed we're all doomed~> <I.Want. To. Eat!> <Hey guys...I just lost the game.>Hearing the arguments behind him their leader turned, trying to calm his people down. <Everyone please! I will defeat this evil creature, you'll see! We are Sunkern! Nothing can defeat us!> he cried, grinning slightly as he heard the others calm down, even if they didn't really seem to believe the things he was saying. ::sunkern:: hit by scratch Leader Sunkern is talking to his people!

Laura growled as she crept forward, thoughts of gutting the Sunkern and devouring its pulpy flesh filling her rather hungry mind, but Jesse stopped her with a mutter for her to come back and look after Dew, who he laid on a mossy rock nearby. As the Sentret retreated, grumbling, and sulked on a smaller rock with her ehad in one hand, Jesse approached the Sunkern with his Stunky egg held close to his chest. "You know, we don't have to keep fighting. We could just... call it a draw?" he suggested calmly. As he said this, Dew regained consciousness and blinked at Laura's sulking face looking down at him, before promptly fainting in fear for the second time in as many minutes, he eyelids fluttering as he banged his head on the rock with a tiny squeal. Jesse winced at the scene, before returning his attention to the cluster of Sunkern who had gathered around one another. Incubated for 5 posts.[/B]

Relief swept through the small sunkern as he turned about, hearing the trainers words of surrender. Oh sure he claimed he wanted a draw, but that was obviously just him trying to hide the fact he would have lost at any moment. <Well...> trailing off he glanced back at the other Sunkern, who were all silent now and staring expectantly at their leader. If he kept battling and somehow lost...what would they do? Perhaps they would worship Jesse and follow him around forever gang up as an angry mob and attack. He couldn't risk them all getting hurt, he had to protect them! <I guess we can stop fighting...though next time you won't be so lucky.>Nodding their heads in agreement the other sunkern rushed over, suddenly seeming overly energetic and happy. With the trainer surrounded they began to cheer excitedly as their leader moved closer to Jeese, a single vine extending out to lightly pat his sunkern on the head. <From now on you and your Sunkern are honourary members of our group!><One of us!><One of us!> <One of us!> <One of us!> <One of us!>Delighted, the sunkern began dancing around, seeming to have forgotten that maybe, just maybe, the trainer might not want to stand in place all night long. ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern:: ::sunkern::

Jesse was a little relieved when the Sunkern seemed to relax visibly, but then he was surrounded by some rather... cheerful looking Sunkern squeaking something that he didn't particularly know or care about. Excusing himself, he picked up Dew, returning him to his Pokeball as he held the Stunky egg close, walking further down the Route until the Sunkern were no longer within eyesight, and then until they could no longer be heard, Laura on his shoulder, still grumbling obscenities about the gang of Sunkern who had quite abdly injured her and knocked Dew unconscious.

As Jesse, his Sentret, and his Pokemon egg walked down the road, they would hear a subtle whistling, a simple human tune that was simple but catchy. “Dooo ddiiiiiii dooo dooo, dooo dddddiiiiii dooo dooo.” the call came, and soon it's producer came into vision; a young man with ruddy brown hair and hazel eyes, who was in a sleeveless shirt, tennis shoes, and a pair of shorts which went past his knees. He flashed Jesse a grin as soon as he came into view, and he continued his jog. “Heya, friend!” he called out enthuisiastically, giving the man a nod. “Your sentret looks pretty beat up, think she'd like some sports drink?” he reached into his hip pouch, throwing the trainer a few bottles of sports drink, which advertised great rejuvination, and had a Gyrados on the bottle.

Jesse blinked as the jogger zoomed past him, not quite sure what to say to this energetic individual. He was offering him something. Drinks? Well, he wasn't one to turn down free drinks from a total stranger."Thanks," he said uncertainly, one eye on the Trainer as he took the drinks and moved further down the Route. Laura took the drink curiously, tilting her head to one side and rapping the drink with a finger, marvelling at the hollow noise the bottle made before taking a drink. Although at first the Sentret's face scrunched up in shock at the bitter taste of the drink, she took another drink, and another, until eventually the entire bottle had been downed, leaving a very energetic Laura itching for battle walking beside him. This would come back to bite him in the ass. He knew it. After checking his egg was safe, he released Dew, the Sunkern looking beat up as he swayed on his shoulder, only staying there because of Jesse's hand holding him in place on the shoulder as the Sunkern squeaked weakly. Unscrewing the bottle cap with his teeth, Jesse poured a small amount down the Sunkern's throat. Although at first Dew frowned, after a moment he gave a short squeak, signalling that he wanted more. Pouring more into the Sunkern's mouth, the bottle was soon half empty. Dew smacked his lips happily and nuzzled Jesse's cheek affectionately, and, contrary to Laura's reaction to the lemonade, promptly fell asleep, rooted securely against Jesse's neck, a comfortable smile on his face.

<Senor, senor! Have I got a deal for you!> a voice called out from the bushes near by. Though the bushes rustled wildly by whatever was inside, it seemed reluctant to come out watching the man from the shadows. After all a Pokémon could never be too careful these days, especially on a route full of bright eyed battle happy trainers. No, this lotad wouldn't be fooled! He would make a profit off this man without getting caught. Not if he could help it at least. ::lotad::

A rustling in the bushes alerted Jesse to the presence of another life. Bending down and ignoring the dust and snow that got into his jeans, and looked into the bushes the rustling had come from.. Hmm. It looked like a Lotad. Picking Dew from his shoulder, the Sunkern awoke, bleary eyed and yawning adorably. Looking up at Jesse with sleep filled eyes, he listened to his Trainer's order. "Slip in there and find out what's going on," ordered Jesse as quietly as possible. As Dew bounced from Jesse's hands onto the cold snow, the little seedling shivered, but made his way into the bushes nonetheless while Jesse held his shaking Stunky egg to protect it from the cold. Spotting the Lotad, the Sunkern spoke. >U-um, what do you want?< he squeaked hesitantly, shivering in the cold. Incubated for 8 posts. [/CENTER]

A sinister grin flashed across the lotad's face as the seedot approached. So young, so impressionable, the perfect target for his ultimate scheme. Hoho, this was going to be easier then he thought! As the seedot approached the lotad quickly changed his gaze, smiling and trying to look as friendly as possible. He probably looked a little strange, low to the ground, lily pad obscuring half his face in shadow, but there really wasn't much he could do about that. <Hello, hello, welcome! Come closer, come on don't worry I don't bite! At least not if you don't want me to, hohoho...> the lotad said with a wink, putting on his signature 'charm'. <Listen have I got a deal for you and your trainer. You look thirsty...yes? Well I know a place full of fresh clean water! All the best pokemon go there, it's a beautiful place! For a price I will take you there...> he said, flashing him another somewhat oversized grin, his eyes never leaving Dews. ::lotad:: Lotad is offering to take you to a 'special place'

Dew licked his lips at the thought of fresh, cool water. The little Sunkern was thirsty. Although the lemonade had been hydrating and tasty, it was temporary, and Dew had soon grown thirsty again. The thought of crystal clear water was one he found himself savouring to the pound that his mouth was watering. Meanwhile, Jesse stood outside feeling rather stupid as Laura lay on her stomach, listening in on the conversations, ears pricking regularly to signal this sneaky course of action against whatever lurked within the bushes. She caught that something was offering them a place to drink, and though the Sentret felt rather suspicious, thirst overcame her urge to be suspicious of everything. >W-well, what do you want?< squeaked Dew, the leaves atop his head quivering as he waited for the Lotad's price while Jesse waited outside, holding the violently shaking egg in an attempt to contain it. Holy crap. The shakes were so strong, it had to be close to hatching. Incubated for 9 posts. [/CENTER]

<Oh ho ho I am a most reasonable pokemon, yes? I desire only your protection on the way there, and maybe some company?> the last word was emphasized just a little too much as he leaned forward, winking yet again at dew. Oh he wanted so much more from this trainer and his idiot pokemon...but they didn't need to know that, at least not yet. <Go on now, convince your trainer to come with me, my friend...> he said, slowly backing away a bit further into the shadows, just in case. ::lotad::

Dew didn't interpret the something more perhaps the way he should have. He was young, innocent, and din't know about such things, and the Lotad's offer seemed genuine enough to the young Pokémon. Laura couldn't hear that last part and as Dew hopped out and began to pull at his trouser leg with his teeth, dragging him back to a walking pace with muffled squeaks of exertion and excitement alike. Laura and Jesse gave each other glances of suspicion as they followed the naive Sunkern, Jesse clutching his egg, sure that something was going to happen and that whatever was in those bushes would be following them.

Perfect. With the trainer and his pokemon following him, the lotad quickly began to head off away from the route path and towards this supposed water source. In truth it wasn't too far from the route, just past a clump of a couple hundred feet off the path, but the lotad wasn't about to tell them that. Instead the little lotad led them towards a denser part of the trees, remaining ominously silent. As they approached a large clearing the lotad slowed down, coming to a halt in the center. No words escaped him as he simply stood there, waiting. ::lotad::
