Sam was incredibly interested in training his Swablu after he had recently traded for it successfully. It was said to be a very strong pokemon when it evolved which appealed heavily to Sam, and also she did like the fact that it had a special move up it's sleeve that could help her greatly in battle. Sam quickly took out his Swablu's pokeball and threw it up in the air... Popping out of it was Ciela, the flying and normal type that became a devastating dragon upon evolving. He awaited for his opponent as he had Ciela out. She was practicing her attacks in the corner. First Growl, then Astonish, then Peck. Surprisingly, she had not been practicing her Heat Wave at all... ::Swablu:: Summary: Out and about Nick: Ciela Gender: Female Ability: Natural Cure Level : 7 Attacks: Peck, Growl, Astonish, Heat Wave Personality:Calm

Canicus was the furthest thing from nervous as he walked into the trainers lounge. His Rattata was sitting on his shoulder, geared up for battle and ready to go. The redheadded boy was wanting to train Toma up to his evolved stage, Raticate. There had been reasoning for him buying Toma from the Pokemon shop. He actually did like the little guys even if they were everywhere.
"Helllooooo! I'm here to battle!"
The Rattata sighed.
<Well of course we are here to battle, why else would we be here?>
Canicus frowned at his Pokemon. What was it with his Pokemon that made them feel the need to act all bossy when he got around other people. First Hiro, then Resix and now Toma. He got no respect...

[OOC:] Making me battle "Toma"? This is going to be confusing lol. [BIC:] Upon seeing the shiny Rattata, Ciela was excited and started to fly towards it while she looked and admired the beauty of the pokemon. >Wow! Why are you white? Why are you so sparkly? You are so pretty!< She said, admiring everything she could about the Rattata. Sam smiled when he saw the orange hair trainer, he really liked that color so it was something that appealed to him. This would be fun, battling one like him. "Hi my name is Sam. What is your name? And by the way, orange is my favorite color!" He said to his new companion. "Anyways, you can start first." He said, allowing Canicus to make the first move. Bad choice with Ciela being so close... ::Swablu:: Summary: Admiring the Shiny Rattata Nick: Ciela Gender: Female Ability: Natural Cure Level : 7 Attacks: Peck, Growl, Astonish, Heat Wave Personality:Calm

Canicus loved being admired by other people, especially pretty girls and cute boys. His opponent just so happened to be the latter of the two to his delight. Giving Sam a quick wink he went into an introduction.
"Well hello there! My name is Canicus Sullivan Derveshmire but you can just call me pleased because that's what I am to make your acquaintance. And just so you know, orange is one of my favorite colors as well. This is my Pokemon Toma and I do hope we have an excellent battle."
Toma on the other hand, was not so happy with the admiration that came from his opponent. They were here to battle! Not trade beauty secrets for Petes sake! Hearing that he got the first move made him quite pleased as he wiggled his tail back and forth in his Tail Whip attack. If it had been him and Resix here together as usual she would have used Simple Beam on the Swablu first, making their attempts all the better. At such a close range, he quickly set to lighting himself on fire and spinning towards the fluffy opponent in a Flame Wheel attack.

"Before we start... I was hoping we can make this a contest mat-" Sam was not even able to finish his sentence as the opponent started rapidly. First a tail wag against Ciela, and then the Shiny Rattata ran right into her with a fiery hand stand. That was not fun at all, the attack struck her and she flew back a bit, surprised by the attack and not yet ready to handle such animosity yet. "Alright, well in this case, we'll just go with contest moves ourselves. You ready Ciela?" Sam asked, but Ciela quickly looked at her trainer with a blank stare... "Oh." Sam quickly said, realizing that Ciela did not understand him fully yet... "Pokedex then, what attacks does she have?" He asked and he saw the list... "Growl... Peck... Astonish... Heat Wave?" That last one sounded a bit interesting so he instantly went with that. "Alright baby, give us a heat wave. But make it pretty!" He said, and in an instant Ciela gave a twirl and her feathers began to turn red. The problem was, this attack wasn't yet mastered by the bird and instead of powerful lava coming out, a few red sparkles simply made it's way at Rattata... That was much weaker than expected. "Okay, we need more practice on that." Sam sighed after seeing what she did. ::Swablu:: (-1 defense) Summary: Hit by Tail Whip and Flame Wheel.

Toma braced himself for what he thought was going to be a powerful attack but it seemed as though the Swablu was quite unfamiliar with it. Far be it from him to complain about that fact though. He was here to get stronger and if his opponent was weaker well that just made things all the better for him in his opinion.
"Tomaaaaaa you could have at least waited for orders or something. We aren't going to get anywhere if we don't work together. Now, Focus Energy and Quick Attack. Let's go."
The yellow rat was disappointed in the fact that he was now getting orders rather than just doing whatever he normally does. He started running towards the wall and jumping on it, using the quickened speed to leverage himself and exactly when he went to jump tightened his focus and getting a better hit off the wall, making him launch even harder from the wall.

"Woah, that is a nice technique" Sam said, taking note when the speedy quick attack hit Ciela and sent her flying back. It did not do a lot of damage to his Swablu, as the Focus Energy did not land a critical hit this time around, but it was still creative and did some damage. "Alright, lets play the room to our advantage now." He said, looking around. It was an enclosed space with a few walls and a window, and basically nothing else... What could he do with those? He thought for a second before trying to see if he can create an echo in the room to use as decoy. "Ciela, use Growl to your left." He said, and she started to scream a sound to the left wall near her which bounced off and started to vibrate around the room. This hopefully would distract Toma a bit before she figured out her attack. "Now Astonish, but come at him from the right." Sam said, and the Swablu began to yell frantically but from the right of Toma. Sam hoped the two sounds would balance each other out, confusing the Rattata and not allowing him to know where she was exactly because of the noise... There was only one problem, she wasn't entirely "UNNOTICEABLE." ::Swablu:: (-1 defense) Summary: Hit by Quick Attack.

Toma was confused, but not for the reason that the other trainer was hoping for. What the hell was an Astonish attack going to do against a normal type Pokemon? Then again, they were supposed to be practicing on Contests or something like that right? So the point was to make their moves look as flashy as possibly right? What a perfectly ridiculous thing to do. Who cared about contests anyways?
"Alright! Let's see if we can't do a little work on some flashy stuff too okay. Tail Whip and a Flame Wheel, concentrate your Flame Wheel okay?"
Sighing the shiny Rattata wagged his tail rather violently at the Swablu, trying to lower it's defense once more. Concentrating, he moved his Flame Wheel towards his tail that was already wagging, the Flame Wheel surrounding his tail and spinning. It wasn't as strong as a normal Flame Wheel seeing as it was the first time they were trying it but it looked cool at least.

Sam sighed when he saw the Astonish go right through the Rattata. It seemed he got too focused on the contest battle that he forgot the actual rules of battling in the first place. Smacking himself in the head, he began to feel bad for himself. "Ghost moves don't work on normals! Gosh!" He said, which just made Ciela look at him like a >WEIRDO< He then saw the Rattata whip it's tail violently against Ciela, almost pushing her to the ground with the intensity of the whip before it stated to turn red due to the flame wheel and come right after her. This gave Sam a good idea to try next against the Rattata. Since this wasn't an actual contest, he could repeat moves now. And it was a good thing too, seeing how he needed practice with his moves... "Ciela! Spin in a circle and use another Heat Wave!" He said and instantly Ciela began to spin in a circle and create bigger lava sparks this time. It still wasn't where he wanted her attack to be, but it was definitely stronger and more beautiful this time around. The red molten sparks came right as the Flame Wheel came and canceled out the original attack. Keeping her safe for this time around. "Great job!" Sam said, though Ciela began to breathe heavily afterward. She was exerting a lot more energy than she was used to. ::Swablu:: (-2 defense) Summary: Hit by Tail Whip.

Canicus watched as the Swablu's Heat Wave cancelled out the Flame Wheel. There had to be other ways that they could use that attack, they just weren't thinking hard enough about it. Maybe after this was all over he could trade notes with Sam or something.
"Hey Sam! After this is all over you think you could give me a few pointers on contests? I know there are other ways that Flame Wheel could be used, I'm just having trouble thinking of any. But that's only if you want to. I'm sure me and Toma can figure something out if not. Speaking of which, use Focus Energy and Flame Wheel, try and beef up the latter of the two okay?"
Toma nodded and Focused his energy, trying to concentrate it into making this next attack work correctly. They were supposed to make the moves look good, make them flashy and stand out. That was the way to win contests. He focused the Flame Wheel to his head, making the flames dance around like a halo of sorts. It was flickering and not as strong as the usual, but he felt good about it as he ran to ram into the Swablu.

Sam was taken aback when Canicus asked him other ways that he could use the move Flame Wheel... He had not had a pokemon learn it in his journey yet so he couldn't really think of other contest ways. He had some experience with it back in the academy but nothing contest related... It didn't matter though, he could probably think of some things to do. But that would be later as he was still busy in this battle... He still had a lot to improve and a lot to learn. And Sam wasn't an expert coordinator or anything. He wasn't even "himself" when he won the first contest. As his true self, he is 0-1 so far. He didn't know how much he could really help this kid, but he wouldn't give up either. He'll try... Sam was impressed to see the next move come his way. It looked flashy seeing a flame wheel go to the head of the Rattata, but it also took away from it's strength as it was too concentrated, as opposed to in the body where it was more "together." He saw the attack hit Ciela and sent her back. The flames pierced her wings a bit and she quickly fell to the floor, unable to fly for the time being. She was able to extend her wings out but wasn't able to flap them at all because of the flames that caused it to not work temporarily. "Alright! Try a growl!" He said and he suddenly noticed that, as Ciela pushed her wings out in a forward motion and aimed a growl, it quickly sent her going back a bit, almost as if it was like a gun shot that had a very large recoil. That was something he'd keep in mind for later, as it was a way he could propel himself if need be. But since he was far away, he needed another attack. "Alright! One more Heat Wave!" He said and Ciela quickly began to dazzle her opponent once again with lava winds that traveled to the Rattata. This time it was even more powerful than the other two. It seemed practice was definitely making her Heat Wave stronger, and stronger. ::Swablu:: (-2 defense) Summary: Hit by Flame Wheel.

Canicus liked the way the Flame Wheel attack looked when it concetrated into the halo on Toma's head. If they could work out a way to make it stronger then they could for sure use it in a contest situation. But for now they needed to figure out a way to use his other attacks to some proficiency for a contest setting. Tackle was such a bland move, however you set it and Quick Attack was just speed making you look amazing. Maybe that was enough though.
"Alright Toma! Dodge that Heat Wave and follow up with a Quick Attack."
Toma jumped up in the air to dodge the incoming heat wave attack, he felt it pass under him uncomfortably close to his legs. He used the backlash from the Heat Wave attack to vacume himself forward into the Swablu with his Quick Attack.

Ciela had spun too much, her head began to dead dizzy as the Heat Wave missed and she was instantly struck with a quick attack and sent flying back, knocking hard against the wall as she had no way of stopping. The attack did major damage to her and she felt a very large cramp on her side after. Her flight patterns changed, and her entire body started to stiffen a bit. She had a hard time taking up in the air, and thus was basically restricted to a normal type without her flying ability at the moment. This gave Sam a chance to try out what he wanted... A good chance! "Alright face the other way and use as strong of a growl as you can to propel you!" He said... But Ciela wasn't strong enough to create enough energy to reach the Rattata. She only got halfway there before she stopped because her growl ended. That was no good... ::Swablu:: (Weakening) (-2 defense) Summary: Hit by Quick Attack.

Canicus couldn't quite figure out what exactly the Swablu was trying to do, only that it looked pretty funny trying to do it. He didn't laugh out loud though, only silently in his head as he pushed his hair back. This battle was going by a lot quicker than he thought it would. Toma wasn't the strongest Pokemon on his team but it seemed as though he might one day be if he was trained right.
"Alright Toma! Let's not let our guard down okay? Keep up the good work! Let's go in with a nice and simple Tackle attack okay?"
Toma sighed and nodded, first they were doing all the fancy shit and now he just wanted a simple tackle attack? They really needed to get their priorities straight. Still, he ran at the dazed Swablu with intent to hit.

The tackle came and smacked hard onto Ciela, but didn't send her flying back or anything because of the limited strength of the move due to the two growls before hand. Although it did show in damage after, because she had limited defense also. The move though allowed Ciela a plan as she quickly tried to grab hold of the Rattata with her two wings. "Alright, good job!" Sam said, encouraging his Swablu as he hoped that the Rattata was held on to and thus could not move. "Now Peck!" He said and the Swablu began to violently try to peck the heck out of her opponent. "Yeah!" He said. Normally, he'd try Astonish but against a normal type... That'd do nothing. ::Swablu:: (Weak) (-2 defense) Summary: Hit by Tackle.

Toma let himself be grabbed by the Swablu, knowing that for the next attack to work properly then he needed to be at point blank to get a proper hit in. He was going to try the Flame Wheel Halo again, this time letting it flare out on the edges so that all the extra energy could be used. Focusing the flames sprouted from his head and he rammed himself into the Swablu as he took the Peck Attack with dignity, even as it happened to be a critical hit. He could win this, he knew he could. There was no doubt in his mind.
Still the Peck attacks hurt and they were starting to take their toll on top of all the other attacks he had received in the battle. His body was starting to weaken and he knew that any more of the barraging attacks and he would be done for.

The flame crown attack hit poor Ciela and she quickly fell to the ground, unable to participate anymore. Sam sighed as he returned his little Swablu after the battle. "Thanks! I learned a lot from this match. But you are the victor." He said as he held out his hand to congratulate Canicus on a job well done. "You are strong. Good luck with your endeavors." He said although he did not part ways yet. He stayed around, seeing what the trainer wanted to do next after he had just won his match... Hopefully Canicus didn't want to continue, he'd hate to use one of his "REAL" pokemon against the orange hair trainer. ::Swablu:: (Fainted) Summary: Hit by Flame Wheel.

Canicus held his breath as the Swablu fainted, and with a sigh of relief silently cheered about his victory. It was few and far between that he actually ever won any trainer battles so kudos to him and Toma. He was so proud of Toma! He had won a battle without Resix and they always fought together. Soon he would have to see if Resix could hold her own in a battle as well. He reached out and shook Sam's hand as well.
"I learned a lot in this match, I really appreciate it. We'll have to battle again sometime and see if there isn't more we can learn okay?"
He wasn't really sure what else to do or say. He hadn't ever won a match so he was unsure how to act in this situation... He waited to see what Sam would have to say next.

So the two simply stood there awkwardly staring at each other as neither wished to move. Sam was ready to leave but couldn't do it because he didn't want to look like a jerk in front of Canicus and just walk out on the guy. He just stood there, awkwardly looking at the trainer who looked back at him.
"So..." He said, before stopping and just simply staring at the orange hair trainer.
Can you say, AWKWARD!?
"So..." He said once more.

Canicus needed to get out of there before he opened his big mouth and before he said something he shouldn't he knew that he just needed to smile, nod and run out of there like a Zubat out of hell before he made any sort of incriminating statements that could possibly get him sent to prison or something like that. Then again maybe he wasn't quick enough as his mouth just opened and he had to blurt something out.
"You're pretty cute when you're in an awkward silence."
Well so much for not saying anything to get him thrown in prison...
