The one thing Pan was used to was work, whether it was taking orders or doing manual labor. She has even cleaned the occasional toilet bowl or two, so getting down and dirty in a mine was practically nothing (especially at the Olivine Cafe. Those sailors were diiiirty men). The last thing she wanted to be was broke, so these shards she would obtain would be most helpful! Perhaps she could afford a luxury or two afterwards?
So here she was, inside the Shasta mines after acquiring the mining kit. She could hear the faint voices and tools chipping away at the walls. Pan took in a deep breath. She coughed, apparently taking in dirt rather than air. She began to walk, and turned a few corners and made her way deeper into the mine. Medea the aipom followed closely beside her, and the darker it got the more ideas the aipom had. She ran in front of her and turned a corner. Pan panicked, and ran after the mischievous little booger.
Medea stuck her tongue out at her trainer, and Pan sighed. These tricks needed to stop. Was it hard to give a little respect? "Medea, can you please be nice? Where are we?" The aipom only shrugged and began dancing around her trainer. This was not going to be a fun venture.

[OOC]: Don't forget to put Aipom's level as you can miss out on shards for excluding that =). [BIC]: Sam walked up to an open room in Shasta Ruin, ready to dig and interact with someone... Possibly make a friend, a love interest? Anything... He brought a rigid hammer with one, as he had never REALLY done this in his life before so he was still very new to the art of digging. With his hammer taped to his back, he began to hold onto Toothless when he saw that there was an Aipom in the room. "Oh! Wild Pokémon?!" He exclaimed excitedly before he saw the appearance of a brunette there also. She stood five feet, hoodie wearing, but with her hips propped out. She wasn't the typical girl that would gather Sam's attention which was a good thing as it prevented him from being dumbfounded by her. "Hi, I assume this Aipom is yours?" He asked her, lighting up with a smile on his face. "My name is Sam. What is your name?" He asked as Toothless began to yawn and show all of her teeth. Weird name for a Pokémon that has as many teeth as she does... Sam still hugged Toothless, making no effort at all to dig at the moment as he did not want to get dirty, nor did he want to get his Bagon dirty. "I see we'll be here for a while." He smiled, still looking at her. Summary: Held by Sam...

OOC || Thanks a lot C: should I include the entire bio like yours or is the level the only thing needed??
How annoying. Medea would never listen to her trainer no matter how hard she tried! Pan sighed, leaning up against the entryway of the room her aipom had entered. As her eyes moved up, she noticed she was not alone. Medea danced around the boy as he asked her name, and Pan stood straight and walked into the room, "Yeah, this little rascal is mine. I'm, erm...Pan. Sorry, did I interrupt something in here?"
Medea noticed the shaft of the hammer taped onto the trainers back, and quickly ripped it off with her hand tail. "Teehee, I've got it now!" The aipom exclaimed as she began to run across the room, jumping off of unsturdy walls and then behind Pan as if for "protection". Pan was taken a back, and she put her hands up in front of her, "Oh no, I'm sorry, I just got Medea... let me get it back for you...she didn't mean it...." She panicked, but when she turned to grab the hammer from the aipom, the aipom began to swing. Pan took a step back, embarrassed that she could not even control her own Pokémon.
Pan shook her head, "Medea, stop this right now!" But the aipom began to swing. It began to back out of the room, but she accidently swung the hammer up into the cieling of the room. A few rocks and dirt fell from above as the hammer clanked onto the ground. The aipom looked up and in panic it ran deeper into the room. Pan looked up, and things began to fall.
"Oh shi-"

[OOC]: Level is enough. I include the bio so I don't have to look back all the times. [BIC]: Sam simply smiled when the Aipom went behind him and took his hammer. He didn't understand why the girl freaked out so much, it was normal for pokemon to misbehave. His Magby, Blaze, was one of the most impish pokemon he had ever seen before they got to know each other better and Blaze got much better. He used to burn paper and other stuff included. Sam smiled when he saw the Aipom with a lot of energy. "You have a great pokemon there." He smiled as he saw the Aipom swinging the hammer around. "Hey buddy, you can keep it." He smiled, until the two began to fight or something and a few boulders began to fall towards Pan. Instantly, Sam dropped Toothless and ordered a quick command to his Bagon. "Dragon Pulse! Go!" He said and when she hit the floor... Her wise glasses quickly fell to her eye level and her dragon pulse became bigger and much stronger also. It created a perfect green spiraling ball and when it was shot at the boulder, it quickly broke them all... Leaving nothing but crumbs to hit Pan in the head. "You should be more careful next time." Sam smiled at Pan. ::Bagon:: Summary: Used Dragon Pulse on the Rocks Name: Toothless Gender: Female Level: 26.5 Item: Wise Glasses (Boost Special Attack) Attack Set 1: Hydro Pump, Thrash, Dragon Pulse, Headbutt Attack Set 2: Focus Energy, Leer, Twister, Ember Ability: Rock Head

It all happened so fast. The boulders, the crumbling, and all the while she stood there wincing. She opened one eye, then two, and saw the green beautiful dragon pulse and WHAM. No more boulders. No more potential injury. She looked at Medea, but the aipom only shrugged and grinned. She turned to the trainer, who was smiling at her.
"You should be more careful next time."
"But it wasn't my...." She began to say, but she only sighed. Ever since she left home, life was hectic, and she was having a hard time coming to terms that her life was full of insanity. Medea joyfully picked up the hammer, and began swinging it. This time, however, she had a better grip.
Pan looked at the trainer, "Thanks for uh, saving my life, I guess?" She shrugged, "I really hope you don't expect me to repay the debt cuz, uh...I sort of suck at this trainer thing and I'm flat broke." She gave him a halfsmile. She bit her lip, trying to think of what she could offer him. For someone who had worked all her life, she could not accept favors without repaying them!
"I know how I can repay you!" Pan grinned, "I'll be your personal assistant, or secretary! Or yes-man, or in this case yes-woman.....am I rambling?" She laughed nervously, "....I am, aren't I....?"

Sam smiled when the girl thanked him for saving her life, and then offered a repayment. "No need for that at all. I'm just glad you are safe and not hurt." He said, smiling at her as he saw the Aipom swinging the hammer happily. "You must be new to this. Pan is it right?" He asked before he walked up closer to her. "Just give it some time and you will get stronger." He said. Toothless was busy doing her own thing also. She suddenly began to thrash her body against the rocks to destroy them. "No need to be a secretary or anything. I don't need anything, it was merely instinct." He smiled as he looked at her. He didn't expect someone needed to pay another back when saving one's life, he always thought it was just the courteous thing to do... ::Bagon:: Summary: Used Thrash (1/3) on the Rocks Name: Toothless Gender: Female Level: 26.5 Item: Wise Glasses (Boost Special Attack) Attack Set 1: Hydro Pump, Thrash, Dragon Pulse, Headbutt Attack Set 2: Focus Energy, Leer, Twister, Ember Ability: Rock Head

The aipom watched the bagon. Was that what you were supposed to do here? It was thrashing against the rocks, and pretty shiny things were falling from the wall. Oooh....pretty and shiny.... Medea bounced up in the air, swinging the hammer on the higher walls. Pan took note of this behavior, and moved closer and to the side of Sam. She had a right to be paranoid!
"No need for that at all. I'm just glad you are safe and not hurt. You must be new to this. Pan is it right?"
Pan only gave him a nervous laugh, "Is it really that obvious?" She asked, embarrassed from her aipom's behavior still. That pokemon will be the death of her. "Yeah, it's Pan, but not like a frying Pan. My mom apparently had misread the greek myth about Pandora's Box." She shrugged lightly, but gave him a warm smile. "Don't worry, I don't bring...erm....much misfortune?" Ever since she came to Cheyenne she was starting not to believe her own words.
"No need to be a secretary or anything. I don't need anything, it was merely instinct."
But Pan only shook her head. "I cannot walk away without repaying you, Sam. It's how I am, it's always how I've been. Long story." She shrugged her shoulders slightly. Working all her life had made her this way, though she silently hoped that something embarrassing was not involved with this debt repayment. "Please, let me repay you somehow." She insisted. Her eye caught sight of the bagon.
"What a helpful little thing you have there," She smiled, though mostly to herself. She was envious, but she would never show it. "She looks strong." She noted. She made a mental sticky note in her mind never to get on Sam's bad side. He would surely kick her rump in no time.

Pan, this girl was definitely persistent... Nothing about that. And it was also odd that she was named after Pandora, who was the one who released all sin to the world while trapping hope in the box. But then again, there was another Pan in Greek Mythology? Maybe that was the Pan that she was named after... Maybe she was named after this Pan who is the god of fertility who is also known for influencing good and bad behaviors. It was closer to her name than Pandora. But he wouldn't question the girl's response, especially since he never even met her or her mother before so that'd be wrong. As he watched his Bagon frantically thrash some more, having fun while she broke some rocks, he simply laughed and went back to conversing with this "Pan." She was a persistent one, she didn't let him get away with not getting repaid for saving her life. She had to repay him or she wouldn't be the same again... He liked that about her, it was something that he felt sometimes also, but he wasn't as stern on it as she was. He thought about what she could do... And then heard her compliments of his Bagon. This only reminded him of Vio, a girl he was attracted to but did not like Toothless. That was an instant-no in his book. This girl was different. Sure she wasn't his usual type, but maybe they could work? "You really want to repay me? Let me take you out on a date after this then. Just coffee!" He said to her. She wasn't his usual type of girl, but his usual type also kept rejecting him... So she'd probably be better. Sam asked you out on a date. For repayment! <3

Sure, Pan knew more about the meaning of her name than Sam could hope to dream of. Her mother gave birth to her in her teens, and true, Pan did bring a lot of bad things into her mothers life, but she still held hope in her dainty little box. Pan was a good person, but her life brought hardship onto others. She shook off the thought. The last thing she wanted was to be bummed out.
Meanwhile, the aipom kept swinging and hitting the wall, first it was randomly, but then it turned into a drum pattern. She was inconsistent in swinging in the same place however, so the walls of the mine were slowly crumbling down. She giggled happily, unaware that this work was benefiting her trainer as well. She spotted the bagon, and began jumping around it humming a happy tune.
"You really want to repay me? Let me take you out on a date after this then. Just coffee!"
....what? Pan's face quickly turned from her normal, beige color, to a light pink splattered across her cheeks. A date? She was expecting housework or bathing pokemon, or some sort of manual labor, but not a date. That was hardly repayment. She bit her lip, trying to choose her words carefully as to not sound like a fool. "Errrm...." It was not like she could say no either! That would just be plain rude!
"Okay, I suppose....if that's what you want?" Pan shrugged nervously. She was not used to being asked out on dates. She silently hoped he was not one of those creepy rapist sort of guys that milk on situations like this, but he barely looked older than she was. And there was something about him that made her trust him just a teensy bit more.
A few second rolled by, and Pan nodded, "Yes, okay. A date...a date it is then?" It was more of a question then a statement or confirmation but it was okay. "Where is there a coffee shop around here, though? We're surrounded by dirt and...whatever we're supposed to be mining." She looked down at the mining kit still in her hands.
"Truthfully, I don't want dust in my beverages either," She chuckled.

[OOC]: Sam is younger than her lol. He's 15, she's 16 lol. [BIC]: Sam smiled when she said yes, it was two birds he could kill with one stone. He hadn't been back in the Verona Cafe in a while so it was nice to go back there now after the mining was done. But this girl was a bit silly and it made him laugh a bit when she talked none stop. "It doesn't have to be right after. We can exchange information and clean up first." He said, giving her a smile as he reached into his pocket, took out a piece of paper, wrote his number on it, and gave it to her. "That way we can contact each other and set it up. It doesn't have to be right after... I'm not dressed for the part." He laughed, although he wasn't dressed for mining either. He was too fashionable at the moment. Toothless though, was thrashing once more, having fun destroying rocks while she was at it. But after this last thrash, she began to get light headed and started to have a headache. "Woah... I feel all weird and woozy." She said. Confused after all those immense thrashes. "Yeah, we should focus on the mining." Sam said, when he looked over and saw his Bagon confused. "Woah, what happened to you?" He asked, picking her up but she was too dazed to hear him speak. Sam gave you his number and asked for yours

OOC || "barely looked older", she doesn't know how old he is! hahah.
IC || "It doesn't have to be right after. We can exchange information and clean up first. That way we can contact each other and set it up. It doesn't have to be right after... I'm not dressed for the part."
Pan looked at the piece of paper, confused, until she realized he was giving her his number. She halfsmiled and pulled out an old receipt from the Olivine Cafe she used to work at from her back pocket. "Errm, hold on...." She said, unzipping the small purse she had and pulled out a pen. On the back of the receipt, she scribbled circles to make sure the pen worked, and then hastily wrote her poke'cell number.
"Dressed for the part? We're getting fancy?" She cocked her head to the side, confused. She felt embarrassed. The only clothes she had were the ones on her back. Being a poor girl had its disadvantages. "I don't really have anything else..." She muttered averting her gaze. For the first time in a while, she felt self-conscious about how she looked. She then held out the receipt for him to take.
Medea saw the Bagon wasn't as...rambunctious as it was early and shrugged. Instead of helping the pokemon, she moved to another part of the room they were in and began smashing the wall. It was a lot of fun to destroy the room for this little critter. It drained her energy, but it was all in good fun.
"Woah, what happened to you?"
"...is she okay? Pan asked, concerned. She bent down to look at the pokemon in the eye, and after a few moments she whispered, "Does she need to lie down?" Pan's nurturing side seemed to kick in. Suddenly she didn't worry about what she was going to wear, she was worrying over this pokemon's health.

Sam smiled when she looked a bit sad after saying she had nothing else. "Don't worry, we aren't going to be getting fancy or anything. I just have a big problem with wearing the same clothes out that I use to work out with." He smiled... Even though he hadn't even broken a sweat here. Nor had he really broke much of a sweat throughout his life for that matter. He was a privileged adolescent, good school, academy, etc. So dressing fancy was always something he was accustomed to. And he did not really understand people who didn't try to dress up. He didn't understand "poor" people. He gladly took her number though and placed it inside his pocket, hoping to use it later on when he gave the girl a call. She was definitely cool, not usually his type but they did get along. Sam had struck out so often with girls that were "his type" that he started to feel a good connection with her. He should go after girls that are "less" his type as they seem to work better for him. Cheyenne sure was different from the academy, where "his types" always gelled with him, and he was always known as the ladies man. Although he didn't really "kiss" any of them so it was definitely a question of how much of a ladies man he really was. Sam also liked it when Pan was worried about Toothless. She had a nice nurturing side about her which he really liked. She was "normal" unlike the other girls he had gone after who were classified with profanity most of the times. He smiled as she looked worried for his Bagon, "she'll be just fine. She's just a bit dazed." He smiled as Toothless began to wobble a bit and accidentally hit her head against the wall. >Ouuu-wee< She said, with tears filling up her pupils. Sam slowly patted her on the head to feel better, although it didn't really make much of a difference at the moment. ::Bagon:: (CONFUSED) Summary: Hit self in confusion Name: Toothless Gender: Female Level: 26.5 Item: Wise Glasses (Boost Special Attack) Attack Set 1: Hydro Pump, Thrash, Dragon Pulse, Headbutt Attack Set 2: Focus Energy, Leer, Twister, Ember Ability: Rock Head

"Don't worry, we aren't going to be getting fancy or anything. I just have a big problem with wearing the same clothes out that I use to work out with."
Pan chuckled a little bit, partially out of relief and partially because he seemed a little scrawny. The last thing she was going to do was say that, though. He seemed charming enough, but she was not sure if that was something he was trying to flirt with or if he legitimately worked out. Pan could not decide, but the idea of possibly getting a pair of running shorts one day. She felt like she kind of needed it.
"That's good. Sorry if you were expecting something fancy, though," Pan shrugged, but instead of dwelling on the subject she looked at the bagon. Sam reassured her that the Pokémon was alright, but Pan could not settle for "alright". After he patted her head, Pan took the liberty to scoop up the Pokémon in her arms. She was a lot heavier then she looked, so Pan sat cross-legged with the Pokémon in her arms.
Then she realized, this wasn't her Pokémon.
"I'm sorry...I just didn't want her to hurt herself..." She said as she gave Sam a nervous smile. Hopefully he did not mind. She looked down at the Pokémon and patted the pokemon's head, trying to calm the poor thing down.
On the other side of the room, Medea turned to look at her trainer, but the sight was not something she did not expect. There was Pan, holding that Pokémon that was thrashing about! The aipom lowered the hammer and stared at her, not knowing what to think.

It was a weird sight seeing this trainer scoop up his pokemon and hold it herself. But it was also a very comforting sight when Sam saw Toothless lower her head and started to rest it on the shoulder of Pan. "Aww she likes you!" He said to Pan as he saw Toothless take it easy and start to rest a bit... She was in such a confused state that this was definitely better for her than to continue thrashing about like a wild maniac. Her confusion even started to go away a bit as she was resting on Pan. She felt relaxed, at home, almost as she felt with Sam but not quite there yet. Sam smiled when he saw this. "You are the first trainer to get along well with my Bagon." He said as he allowed it to happen. He slowly went up to the Aipom and tried to be there for her. "Hey little buddy. Are you tired yet?" He asked before patting her on the head, or at least attempting to. Toothless wasn't the jealous type as Sam was very affectionate toward her. So she didn't react violently to the sight of Sam patting someone else on the head. Sam tries to pet the Aipom

It was weird, connecting with a pokemon like this. Pan had never gotten close to one, but as she held the bagon in her arms she felt like this whole pokemon thing was doable. It felt nice to have the warmth of Sam's pokemon against her. She felt a tinge of sadness though as she looked over at her aipom and their eyes met. Pan wished she could have this feeling with Medea.
"You are the first trainer to get along well with my Bagon."
Pan broke the gaze and looked up at Sam with a warm smile, "This is how I calmed down my baby sister when she was younger, but I'll save my life story for later." With that, she looked down at the bagon and rubbed her back, making a shhh sound and letting the vibrations from her throat sooth the pokemon further.
"Hey little buddy. Are you tired yet?"
Medea shook off her daze, and looked up at the stranger who tried to pet her. Instinctively, she moved out of the way and pointed his own hammer at the trainer. She was definitely a wily one. Medea stuck out her tongue and blew raspberries. "I'm never tired!" The aipom proclaimed as she began to bounce around, hacking at the wall, occasionally looking over at his trainer and the bagon.
"See? I'm doing work, unlike you lazy bums!" She half-joked.

Toothless' headache slowly went away but she enjoyed being pampered so she didn't try to get off of Pan at all. She liked being nurtured to and getting pampered, and wasn't one who liked to work so this suited her greatly. Sam smiled when he saw the two get along, he was okay with Toothless not digging because honestly, he liked her to have fun rather than tire herself out with strenuous labor. She was his baby, meant to be pampered and spoiled... Not to do manual labor. When the Aipom got away from him and stuck out her tongue at him. He was taken back a bit but slowly started to calm down when he saw the Aipom hacking away. "Ha, you are a silly one." He said, laughing at the Aipom as he started to focus his attention to Pan now. "We are probably going to be here for a while... So I don't mind life stories." He said, smiling at her while he spoke. ::Bagon:: Summary: Resting on Pan's shoulders Name: Toothless Gender: Female Level: 26.5 Item: Wise Glasses (Boost Special Attack) Attack Set 1: Hydro Pump, Thrash, Dragon Pulse, Headbutt Attack Set 2: Focus Energy, Leer, Twister, Ember Ability: Rock Head

"Ha, you are a silly one."
Medea kind of liked the attention, but felt a little shafted as the boy turned back to the trainer, who was still cuddling up to that other.... thing. She huffed, setting down the hammer on the ground and watched the two trainers, studying them. Perhaps she would learn a thing or two about his own.
"We are probably going to be here for a while... So I don't mind life stories."
It was funny. Pan came down here to look for shards to make her life potentially easier, and right now she was snuggling a Pokémon she had never seen before and a boy she just met asked her for her life story. Pan smiled and with a hand pushed a stray strand of hair behind her ear, unintentionally showing off her two piercings. "Where do I even begin?" She asked, mostly to herself.
Pan was silent for a moment. "I came from this small port, Olivine. My mom gave birth to me when she was young, and could barely support me. Thankfully, this old couple offered her a job and a place to stay." She paused, remembering the way her mother told her. "My mom eventually got enough money to get our own place, and when I was old enough to take orders and carry trays I started helping out too."
Wow, her life just seemed... dull. "My life might seem boring, but I got to meet a lot of people with a lot of stories. Sailors from Kanto and Sinnoh... Traders from Unova." She shrugged lightly. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the tearful Medea listening to her story.
The aipom ran to her trainer and put its tail-hand on her knee. Pan was a little taken aback by the gesture, but with a free hand she pet the purple monkey. She gave a small smile to her Pokémon. This was the first time it seemed to... care. Unfortunately, Pan does not play the damsel role often.
"Your turn," She said, as she looked back up to Sam, "Let's trade off. One story, for another."

Although she thought her story was boring... It sounded incredibly fascinating to Sam. She actually had to experience a lot in her life which he did not really do himself. He was born from a privilege family where he had the best education, and knew almost everything he could about pokemon before starting out. He was near perfect, outside of one little problem. But enough thinking in his head... Now it was time to tell her, but put it in words that makes him not sound crazy, spoiled, or etc. "Hm... where do I begin? I grew up with two loving parents who were also pokemon experts. I still try to call home at least once a week as they want to hear how I am doing." He said before pausing. He just remembered something when he looked at Toothless. "Oh and that Bagon you are hugging. It was an egg my parents found in a dragon den, they gave it to me in hopes that I'd hatch it and take good care of it. And the little guy has been with me ever since." He smiled. He still remembered that he was going to settle for anything, but when it turned out to be this pseudo dragon, he was so elated, that he couldn't control himself. Ever since then, it had replaced Batman as his favorite. "I went to an academy where we learned to battle with pokemon, simulation style... So I had a lot of experience coming in." He continued before he decided to get into his history a bit. "But it's not all great and dandy. I can sometimes 'not be myself'... It happens ever so often." He said to her before he stopped. Hopefully that was enough, and she wouldn't ask questions. If she did, well she asked for it so hopefully she wouldn't think of him as a weirdo. ::Bagon:: Summary: Herp? Derp?

As she listened to his story, she realized how very different the two of them were, and she tried to keep jealous feelings at bay. Pan never went to school. She was her own teacher, and learned things from books or the travelers she met at the Cafe. She suddenly felt much dumber than she was. She could barely control her own pokemon!
Pan listened as he spoke, and understood where he came from. While he talked, she put her attention towards the pokemon, now that Medea wanted it. She kept rubbing the dragon's back, and with her free hand she reached towards her own aipom and pet his head. For once Medea accepted Pan's shred of affection.
It was interesting as he talked about his bagon, and for a moment Pan felt as though she was not privileged enough to be comforting such an important friend of his. She looked up at the trainer, and gave him a warm smile as he spoke. He seemed proud of this pokemon, and she could see why. The bagon was absolutely adorable and no doubt incredibly strong.
"Maybe....maybe you could teach me sometime? How to do this whole trainer thing, I mean." She asked, feeling a little self-conscious. She kept her eyes on the bagon than Sam. Pan did not want him to sense her embarrassment. However, he was not done, and she listened to his story some more.
"But it's not all great and dandy. I can sometimes 'not be myself'... It happens ever so often."
That was something Pan did not expect. He's not...himself? Pan took a moment to try to understand what he meant, and then she looked up at him and gave him a warm smile, "It happens to everybody, though, doesn't it?" She asked, paused, then continued, "I know back home some days I just wanted to take the day off, screw my paycheck, and just sit on the docks for as long as I can." For someone who did not know about his condition, this was the only logical solace she could give him. She did not want to pry, so she kept herself from asking about it. People had their skeletons, and Pan definitely had a few of her own.

Sam smiled when she asked him to teach her how to do the trainer thing. He wasn't an expert by any means although he had picked up a badge and felt almost ready for his second one. But even then, he had his fair share of losses so he wasn't an expert by any standard. Still, he felt he could help her out and give her a few pointers... Definitely about stuff he learned in the academy. "Sure, anytime." He said to Pan, giving her a smile although the smile quickly went away when he realized that the way he teaches, she might not like... "Although, I usually teach by battling. So you might have to see your Aipom get beat up a few times to get stronger. Trust me, I've gotten my fair share of losses." He said with a smile. It was true, he even lost a pokemon to a member of Team Death after losing his match... When she began to speak about his "problem"... He started to smile as she absolutely had no idea what he was talking about. But then again, he was incredibly vague. He didn't like talking about it as it was a sore subject, so he quickly agreed with her. "Sure. That's what I mean." He said with a fake smile on his face. It wasn't at all what he meant but it beat the actual explanation which could make him look like a freak or a circus clown. Suddenly, Toothless began to reach out her arm as she called: >Daddy!< It seemed that although she liked being with Pan, she now wanted to be back in the grasp of Sam. Sam saw this but didn't make a movement yet, he didn't want to just snatch his pokemon back like that... ::Bagon:: Summary: Wants to be back with Sam Name: Toothless Gender: Female Level: 26.5 Item: Wise Glasses (Boost Special Attack) Attack Set 1: Hydro Pump, Thrash, Dragon Pulse, Headbutt Attack Set 2: Focus Energy, Leer, Twister, Ember Ability: Rock Head
