Lori and Kuchi walked down the dirt path named Route 1. It was a very trodden down path with forest on either side, and foliage lining it borders. It was apparent that many had walked down this path over the years, though the occasional grasses or flowers decorated it as Lori and Kuchi walked. Lori walked at a pace slightly faster than a walk, scanning the area around her, just waiting for a pokemon to pop out at her or something. Kuchi just walked at Lori's side, keeping an even pace with her, vacantly staring ahead without a single shred of emotion.
Lori looked and looked, in the forest it looked lively and the sky clear, but no pokemon came into view. "Dude! Where are they?" She said out loud to herself. She was itching to start training her pokemon, if Kuchi evolved then Lori would have a dragon type. How amazing! It's one of her favorite types of pokemon, besides Steel, but Lori had to seriously train Kuchi for that to happen. Kuchi could care less, but then, Kuchi didn't care about anything.

::paras:: P O K E M O N . E N C O U N T E R . . .
He closed his eyes, trying not to think, trying not to hear the cruel voices that simply did not stop. He crawled around weakly, his stomach low to the ground, carrying quite a huge load on his back. His orange shell was dull in colour and his eyes, lifeless. If he didn't get any help, he would end up dead, due to these mushrooms on his back. Two red parasitic lumps on his back, telling him to keep moving, never stop moving, to follow the shadow and never to rest. It sucked the life out of the paras and the pokemon could do nothing about it.
Keep going! Move faster! You are such a useless host. This is why no one wants you. I am the only one that will ever accept you, you freak. The voice was inaudible, coming from somewhere inside him, but the pokemon knew it too well. Letting out a little sob, the paras apologized as he crawled. He wanted to take a break, but then the mushroom on his back would be so disappointed and it would take even more of his health. He was such a useless pokemon. He couldn't do anything right... He couldn't even keep the mushroom on his back happy and healthy. Crawling, his claws scrapping the ground, he moved close of the girl, but much too preoccupied with his own troubles to even notice her.
<I'm sorry, I'm sorry... Here, we'll go by the water again,> he said, even though he personally didn't like the area too much -- the ground was wet, soggy, and uncomfortable, but the mushrooms liked it. Good. Finally something smart coming out of your tiny brain. I was starting to doubt you even had one. The pokemon flinched a bit at those words, but this is what his life was for. Serve the mushrooms on his back, let it grow big and strong, and the mushrooms will lend their power to him before allowing him to evolve into the beautiful creature his mother was. He just hoped he would be able to survive that long.

Lori continued down the path called Route 1. Through the trees Lori noticed the gleam of sun reflecting off small pond, more like a really big puddle. Feeling really thirsty Lori cut from the path and headed into forest, but Kuchi the Trapinch fell behind. She does not like water. Water is bad. And then something caught her eye, a Paras. A small weak paras crawling across the path towards the pond where Lori was at. Kuchi is hungry. Kuchi will dig.
Kuchi snuck around the bushes and dug into the ground, just a few feet from the weak Paras, Kuchi's own pit trap began to form. The ground became soft, it started to look much like the area it was entering, other than the fact that a hungry Trapinch lay in wait at the bottom hidden under a layer of earth.

How long had he been pulling himself across the grass now? How far had he gotten? Numbers made sense to this little guy no longer, seeing as how he just inched farther and farther. . . Closer and closer to the watering hole. Maybe if he were to get a drink of water to quench his thirst, he'd possibly regain enough energy to get farther.
All of a sudden the ground beneath him and he fell through the grass, only to roll into the hole beneath. He was with another poke'mon now, and he couldn't help but let out a squeal of >HELP!< as he skidded down the rocky side of the hole, and into the dark cavern below.

Kuchi waited, the sounds of the Paras inching closer, a meal close at hand. A scratching noise in her pit trap alerted Kuchi that her prey and feel in, in an instant her mouth opened wide and the Paras fell in, Kuchi enormous and powerful jaws clamp down. Over and over the Paras was crushed between the crushing force of Kuchi's jaws, the Paras didn't stand a chance, and was consumed by the hungry Trapinch.
Meanwhile Lori had gotten her fill of water, even filled up a canteen before turning around to return to the road. But Kuchi was missing. "Kuchi?? Where are you?" But as soon as she said Kuchi had already began to make her way back to Lori, walking up to her from the bushes just a few feet away from the pit. "There you are. Don't go running off, 'kay? We got training to do. Come on." Lori patted Kuchi on the head and guided her back to the road. They walked a few feet before Lori looked down at Kuchi. "So are you hungry?" For the first and last time, Kuchi just smiled.

A scream came from a nearby bush next to the trainer. It was obvious what ever the pokemon was that it was trying to get some attention; but the pokemon around the area realised who the voice belonged to, so they made their way from the area. "HELP! SOMEONE MURDER!" The voice screamed again, before the bush started wiggling fiercely. Suddenly, a raccoon like pokemon jumped out of the bush before growling at the two. If no one was coming to come help him stop this criminal act, then it was up to him to save the day. "How dare you kill an innocent pokemon like that? He could of lived you know? Lived I tell you!" the zigzaggon exclaimed, before growling at the two again, hoping to scare them completely, so that he could subdue them when they weren't aware. This was one of the rare occasions where the zigzagoon was actually right, but would the trainer do anything at all?

Apparently Kuchi wasn't hungry, so the two continued down Route 1, trying to find an opponent. Suddenly Lori heard the cry of pokemon, it sounded almost frantic and angry, so she stopped where she was to listen better. Kuchi paused at her feet, staring blankly forward as a Zigzagoon burst from a bush shouting bloody murder. Lori had no idea Kuchi had eaten a Paras, so when the Pokémon leapt out she felt like it wanted to challenge her.
"Alright! Our first challenger! Kuchi front and center!" Lori commanded excitedly. Kuchi walked up and stood a few feet in front of the enemy. It used growl at her, but just stood there with a blank face as her abilities Hyper Cutter and Arena Trap activated. The growl had done nothing, and now the enemy could not escape this battle. "Kuchi use Signal Beam!" Kuchi responded, and a beam of multicolored light shot at the Zigzagoon from her mouth, possibly confusing it as well as damage.

Attention seeker. Used Tackle What on earth was this trainer speaking about him being a challenger? Was he oblivious to the murder which had just happened only a few feet away from him? Then he must be part of the plan then. "AHHHHH! THEY WANT TO MURDER ME!" The zigzagoon shouted trying to run away, but for some strange reasons he found out that he couldn't back away at all. Before he had time to realise what he could do, he was struck in the side by the signal beam, sending him rolling on the ground. "Now that was a cheap shot at killing me." the zigzaggon said, before charging at the trapinch. "Maybe this will teach you not to kill innocent pokemon!" he said, flinging himself in the air towards the trapinch, trying to tackle him to the floor.

Lori watched as Arena Trap kept the wild pokemon from leaving. Yeah! This is gunna be a really handy ability. She thought to herself as the pokemon had been to distracted by not being able to leave that it was hit by the Signal Beam. "Yeah! Good Job Kuchi!" Lori told her pokemon, but then the Zigzagoon prepared to strike back by tackling. Kuchi watched as it jumped up and tried to tackle him, but she just opened her mouth a few second before impact, catching it's head in her mouth without moving a nudge.
Kuchi bite.... The Trapinch thought to herself before Lori issued another command. "Perfect,Kuchi use Bite!" Kuchi welcomed this, biting down hard on the Zigzagoon and shaking it back and forth like a rag doll. this Trapinch sure loved to bite.

The Zigzagoon got tossed back and forth, terrified of the trainer. <HELP! I'M GETTING ATTACKED! SOMEONE PLEASE, HELP!> he screamed, while trying to wriggle free of the grip of the scary pokemon he was getting attacked by. Was he going to be killed and eaten like the Paras was? Was he going to have his head bitten off? Was he going to be penetrated from behind? He had no idea, and started to wriggle harder. <GET OFF ME! STRANGER DANGER. STRANGER DANGER!> the normal type screamed as he wagged his tail back and forth, before trying to tackle his way through the grip of the Trapinch to hit it again. ::Zigzagoon:: Level 5 Gender: Male Moves: Tackle, Growl, Tail Whip Abilities: Pickup + Gluttony Personality: Over reacts a lot.

Kuchi blankly stared at tail sticking out of it mouth, back and forth, back and forth. The she spat out the wiggling pokemon, not liking how it moved in her mouth, and that it left tufts of fur on her tongue. Lori sort of laughed at the scene before her, but she needed to concentrate. "Kuchi use Signal Beam!"
Kuchi didn't think too much about it. She just aimed and shot a colorful beam at the Zigzagoon, Loki hoping it might cause some confusion.

Zigzagoon quickly dodged the beam shot at him. <Now you're using cheap tactics? Somebody, PLEASE help me!> he cried out, as he wagged his tail once again at the Trapinch before rushing in to tackle again. This time, he was much more careful, watching the Trapinch's actions again. He didn't want to get caught in its jaws again. After all, he's fighting in self-defense, right? The Trapinch KILLED that poor Paras, and now its after him! He had to make it faint so he could get away! <Go away!> he said as he threw his body weight against the Trapinch. ::Zigzagoon:: Level 5 Gender: Male Moves: Tackle, Growl, Tail Whip Abilities: Pickup + Gluttony Personality: Over reacts a lot.

The Zigzagoon's tail began to move again, back and forth, back and forth. Kuchi continued to blankly stand there, watching as the other pokemon slowly lost it's mind to panic. Lori watched as the Zigzagoon dodged her pokemon's attack, clearly the thing was panicking, but it was also getting smarter with it's movements. "Kuchi use Signal Beam again!" She responded absentmindedly, turning her head so the when she fired, the beam of multicolored light would hit the oncoming foe.

ooc - that's three dodges in a row. We're not very strict here but please take damage sometimes. Zigzagoon's cries did not go unheard. As the unfortunate creature was being thrashed by the tricky trapinch, a phallic shaped head peeked out from a nearby bush. What was this? This looked juicy!
<WHAT'SGOINGONINHERE?> the bellsprout shrieked, sliding over and inspecting both pokemon carefully. <IS THERE A BEATDOWN HAPPENING? I LOVE BEATDOWNS. WHO'S TEAM SHOULD I BE ON? HMMMMM!!> grass-type glanced between trapinch and zigzagoon once or twice before making her decision. Thorny tendrils were launched at trapinch, vine whip a super effective attack!
Zigzagoon saw the opportunity and seized it. He dove behind his new ally and breathed a sigh of relief. <Trapinch MURDERED a poor innocent paras! Can you believe it!> he sobbed into his paws.

(OOC: Sorry I not used to putting little sprites and their info. I have updated the previous posts so that you can see that haven't really dodged, more like countered.) Lori grew more excited at the successful hit from her Trapinch. "Great Job, Kuchi!" Before Lori could issue a final blow, out of no where a Bellsprout appeared on the scene, waltzing in as if she'd been there the whole time. She seemed to ponder as to if who side she was on, and then joined the weakening Zigzagoon by starting to use Vinewhip on Kuchi!
"Oh yeah! Well if this is a double battle, then Trolo, front and center!" She reached for a ball on her belt and released another pokemon, a Voltorb appearing from out of the red light. He stared straight at the Bellsprout, not even blinking, waiting for a command. "Trolo use Tackle on the Zigzagoon! Kuchi use Bite on the Vinewhip!" Kuchi moved first and as the vines came near her face she clamped down hard on them with bite, her sharp teeth digging in. Trolo began his attack as well, rolling forward speedily at the weak Zigzagoon.

Pokemon encounter ! {{ooc// The way you 'countered' the moves is the same as dodging, since your pokemon did not take any damage from the attack. This means that your Trapinch just now dodged the Vinewhip, which means you're now at 4 dodges. This is fine, but if you dodge any more without a good reason it'll be a violation of the rules.
In addition, from now on, please summarize both what move(s) your pokemon were hit by (or dodged) and what moves it used. This makes it way easier for mods to estimate damage. }}
The Zigzagoon whined pitifully as the Voltorb burrowed into his side, practically running him over. The pain was excruciating, but somehow he was still barely able to stand. <Oh gosh, I'm dying too now! What if he eats me too!?> The Zigzagoon wailed, almost sobbing dramatically. Fear clouding his mind, he ran toward the Voltorb in a reckless attempt to tackle him.
Meanwhile, the Bellsprout winced as the Trapinch's sharp teeth dug into her vines. <No! NO! I just got these smoothed out for the third time this week!> The weed fretted, retracting her tendrils and grimacing at the damage. Pouting with rage, she launched yet another Vine Whip at the Trapinch with the intent to slap him silly. ::zigzagoon:: Level 5 Gender: Male Moves: Tackle, Growl, Tail Whip Abilities: Pickup + Gluttony Personality: Over reacts a lot.

Lori kept an eye Kuchi who was starting to feel the effects of the long battle, her movement beginning weaken in reflection to the damage taken. It was time to change things up. "Team! Opponent change!" Kuchi and Trolo reacted by switching places, while Kuchi now targeted the Zigzagoon, Trolo rolled forward to the Bellsprout and was hit by the Vinewhip. The grass type attack didn't do much to the electric pokemon, and after the Bellsprout finished her attack, Trolo awaited orders.
"Trolo use Tackle! Kuchi use Signal Beam to finish off that Zigzagoon!" Trolo instantly moved forward, his naturally fast body rolling straight at the Bellsprout. Meanwhile Kuchi opened her mouth and loosed a powerful Signal Beam at point blank range as the weak Zigzagoon tackled in the face.
Lori carefully watched the the battle progress. While hoping for Trolo's Static ability to kick in, the thought of Kuchi's Signal Beam possibly causing confusion if the Zigzagoon didn't pass out, wasn't far either. It would be a close battle for Kuchi and the Zigzagoon. FEMALE | LEVEL 5 [ Hyper Cutter | Arena Trap ] - Bite - Signal Beam - Weakening

Zigzagoon got hit by the Signal beam, and collapsed slightly. He looked down at his fur and saw it being dampened with a lot of blood. <O-OH MY GOD.> he said stumbling a bit before face planting the ground. After that, he just looked up <I really am dying...> he said, before blacking out for the final time. Bellsprout watched the Zigzagoon in horror as she fell backwards from the tackle attack. <WHAT THE FUCK. TWO POKEMON YOU KILLED NOW?> she screamed, terrified of the trainer. She HAD to make that Trapinch faint. <Why'd you kill him? You should've worked it out rather than battle!> she said, sending vines out to slap the Trapinch across the face. It was all her fault. Making the Zigzagoon freak out like that, his death, as well as herself getting involved. <Go away before anything else comes to get revenge!> she warned the trainer and her pokemon. ::Zigzagoon: Level 5 Gender: Male Moves: Tackle, Growl, Tail Whip Abilities: Pickup + Gluttony Personality: Over reacts a lot.

OOC:
You gain no levels not because it died, but because you were beasting through the battle with godmodding/powerplaying skills with no effort at all. Besides, the death wasn't graphic so there is no issue with you not being able to capture one Zigzagoon. It's a penalty. Please understand that Airceltrai is a very level headed moderator with good judgement.
Here are some suggestions on what you can do:
-- Please take super consideration into anything mods/admins say in OOC, it means that you shouldn't push your luck
-- Don't worry so much about losing, there isn't anything wrong with a newbie training taking in some losses at the start. In fact, it's expected.
-- Take a look at the rules and several other route 1 threads to see how they work. Get a better idea of how to act with us, and we'll be sure to respond positively with you. <3

Kuchi's move hit the Zigzagoon with success, but maybe a little to much, because the moment after the move hit, the Zigzagoon collapsed on the ground. At first Lori felt excited at her victory, but a pang of guilt hit her and she rushed forward. It looked like it had passed out but she wasn't sure, hopefully that was it, so she tried to help it by placing it in a bush a couple feet away.
As she turned around, Lori watched as the Bellsprout attacked Kuchi viciously with a Vinewhip attack, being slapped back and forth in the head with the Bellsprout's green extensions. This super-effective attack was too much for the already weakened Trapinch, Kuchi collapsed to the ground, and Lori rushed to her aid. Kuchi looked up at her weakly as if apologizing. "It's okay... It's your first battle. Don't worry, you'll get another chance. Take a good rest."
Lori returned Kuchi to her ball and stood, focusing her attention on the battle still at hand. Trolo "stood" ready for it's next command. "Alright Trolo, lets win this battle for Kuchi! Use Tackle!" The speedy ball pokemon began to charge at the Bellsprout with Tackle, aiming to ram into grass type with all it had.
