Banjo yelped as Sassy crashed into him. He stumbled and struggled to regain his footing, bracing himself with wide-spread legs and glaring at her. His head was lowered in aggression and his gaze had narrowed in on her. "Use Double Team, and then bite her!" Pepper stuck one hand into her back pocket as she studied her pup. Banjo laid his ears back as he studied Sassy, and then an image of himself separated off to stand side-by-side with Banjo...so perfect that it was nearly impossible to tell which was Banjo. He and the image both lunged for Sassy, his jaws opening with the intention to snap shut on Sassy.

[style=height:239px] POKEMON ENCOUNTER Lydia nodded to Pepper just then, but nothing could really be said during a battle to ease the pain that accompanied one in this dire circumstance. Even though Lydia was quite happy with the outcome since she could at least teach her mareep the true essence of battling. Although she wasn't quite used to battle tactics as of yet and soon just clicked her tongue at Sassy just then. "Aw, wittle baby sassy wassy wants me to have her use gwowl and twackle don't you baby?" she asked suddenly in a babyish voice to her pokemon. Sassy sucked up all the attention with a beaming smile on her face, but part of her was still tugging on reality that she'd never be going back home. Sure, this battle might help her mature a little more, but that was for future routes to decided mainly. "Okay Sassy go go go use tackle and growl!" she said again as she was struck by the bite attack. It hurt a lot and suddenly Sassy was growling at the growlithe to further decrease his attack minus the intimidate that was taking effect. Within moments she was attempting to tackle into the growlithe. Pepper was certainly a great opponent to practice against.

Pepper stuck her tongue out the corner of her mouth and bit down on it in an automatic gesture as she thought through what she needed to do. She looked at Lydia. The girl was going to be a strong trainer someday...but it seemed a little bit like she had her head in the clouds for the moment. Pepper tilted her head and looked at Banjo. "Use Double Team again and then ember!" She fidgeted in place, not sure how this was going to work...but he was getting the practice with Double Team, so when they needed it in the future it would be readily available. Since it was a move she'd taught to him and not one which he'd learned on his own, she was slightly worried about it. Banjo's image split again so it seemed like the Mareep was facing three of him, and then he opened his mouth and flames licked at the back of his throat as all three images howled, shooting the flames at Sassy.

[style=height:239px] POKEMON ENCOUNTER Lydia didn't know what to do when her pokemon was hit by the ember since she was expecting an actual attack to effect her. Even though she saw her opponent trying ot raise her evasion, but didn't know what that really meant since she was just a little kid. So she decided to go with something rather innocent now that would lead them both to believe that things were going Pepper's way. Sassy wasn't one for battling, but proving her worth to Lydia was all worth the effort in this scrutilous attempt for affection she deserved if she beat the pesky growlithe. "Okay Sassy we can do this, use another tackle!" she said suddenly seeing as how Sassy was still kicking after that ember despite being at the lowest red health possible. Silly as that may sound it was pretty awesome being able to survive on this last health point. Sassy quickly ran in to tackle her target and hoped tor the best this time, with an evil laugh Lydia hoped that things would indeed turn her way. Perhaps the growlithe would faint and she wouldn't have to concede defeat!

Pepper winced as she watched her pup take the tackle with barely even a yelp. He was panting, but definitely game enough to take on the little Mareep further. He dove forward without having to be told and snapped his jaws at Sassy, trying to bite her and end the battle for good. Pepper looked up at Lydia and tilted her head. "You and your Mareep will be strong trainers one day if you keep this up!" she said with a slight smile, turning to look back at Banjo. She loved her puppy...this just proved why.

[style=height:239px] POKEMON ENCOUNTER Banjo did a good job at that, and that was the last hit for Sassy as she even attempted to move forwards to an attack as the poor mareep seemed to pass out just then. "oh no, Sassy please get back up, we'll have to go heal you up at a pokemon center right away, but not in the city one before here, maybe we can go to the professor's lab," she said calmly. Yes, she was trying to avoid going to the city still even after having been beaten. Even if it was a short walk there, and she didn't have the energy to do so as she seemed to sob a little. Suddenly she finally just got back up and put on a brave face as she smiled at Pepper. "That was a good battle, what terms did we agree upon again?" the little girl asked and pouted softly at the trainer. Trying to remember what she was supposed to do now. The lost girl had something to give, but she was reluctant to do so until she was reminded of what it was.

Pepper crossed her arms and stared at Lydia sternly. "You know very well what we agreed upon," she said shortly. "One thing that you need to learn very quickly, Lydia, is that being a good trainer means more than how you treat your Pokémon. It's also reflected in how you treat others...and how you honor your word. You should never try to go back on your word." She'd learned that from Dave, of course, but she didn't need to tell Lydia how new she still was. The statement still had purpose, despite the fact that Pepper was relatively new to be giving advice like that. She tilted her head and softened into a smile. "Your Mareep fought well. Keep building your relationship with her, and you'll both find that you can go so many more places than you ever dreamed of before. That's what I'm learning with Banjo, anyway." She put her hand on her puppy's head. He garumphed and pressed close to her to accept her tight, happy hug.

Pepper gave an exasperated sigh as she stared at Lydia and the Mareep, and then she shook her head. She couldn't believe this. "Look, I know it's hard to hear, but some day you may thank me for saying it." Pepper knelt and stared into Lydia's eyes. "I know you're excited for your journey to start, but your journey will begin when it's ready to. If you try to force it, you'll lose a lot of trust from your Pokémon." She dropped her hand to the Mareep's fleece and gently stroked it. "This poor girl is scared. You can see it in her eyes. You're scared too. That's not a bad thing...but...maybe you're trying to grow up too fast all at once here."

" well.. i guess i can think about it.. maybe i will go home. but.. i'm not sure. " she said. at the mention of home, sassy got to her feet and bleated a bit, begging her apparently. she seemed happy when the other trainer petted her, but what she really wanted was to just go home. she was homesick, and she needed more comfort than her trainer was giving her at the moment. < please? please can we just go home? > she pleaded again. however lydia just got to her feet. " come on, sassy. lets go to the professors lab and get you fixed up.. " she said, before returning the mareep to her pokeball and leaving. as soon as she'd left, however. there was a huge crash from the tree, landing a good fifty feet from them, however making enough noise for pepper and her growlithe to hear. ::mareep:: Sassy Level 5 - Female Static Tackle || Growl || Odor Sleuth Gentle - Affectionate - Homesick Holding: Pecha Berry [INTIMIDATED!] [/style] [style=padding: 10px;]NOTES HERE.

Pepper jumped when she heard the crash and spun on her heel, looking into the woods. She stuck her hand to her Pokeball, resting her fingers on the Pokeballs that had been waiting for her earlier when she'd gone to heal Punch and Banjo. She was hesitant to use Punch with his wing broken, but perhaps one of the other two could be of use. She stepped into the woods with Banjo pressing close to her, growling softly.

[style=height:239px] POKEMON ENCOUNTER Yes, that huge crash, it wasn't a pokemon, but a thing that had come out from space. It was oh god no, it was GODZILLA RUN FOR YOUR FUCKING LIVES! Kidding, it was actually a furry creature that resembled a humanoid ape only referred to as we know him as in real life. Yes, he was 'that' creature, but would the person be able to figure it out without looking at the picture down below. Hair from head to toe that looked much like gorilla hair and could stand on it's feet without having to arch it's back like most gorilla's did. Just walking on two feet normally and suddenly he turned around holding a lollipop in his hand. Starting to suck on it like an innocent gorilla for a minute, but then his eyes widened. This wasn't his world, he wasn't back in Vegas anymore trying to get some ladies to go to town with them! By go to town, he meant gamble with them, and stuff like that for maturity reasons. Still, he brushed himself up and grunted as he put a a braid in his own hair, then put a flower on top of it. Making him look like the pretty princess he was, and soon he was on his way letting the trainer carry on about her business. Even though in his left hand he held a pokemon that was fainted, and obviously about to face a rather horrid end if Pepper didn't save it too. Of course, it was just a hoothoot and luckily it was knocked out otherwise it'd be screaming her lungs off for help.

Pepper gasped and stared at the creature that stood ahead of them. She pulled a Pokeball off of her belt, but...how could she possibly fight that thing? She looked down at Banjo. She knelt down and murmured against his ear. "Try scaring it, like you did with the Lotad. Use Roar for all you're worth, Banjo!" Banjo bared his teeth, fire sparking in the back of his throat. But he contained it and stepped forward, bracing his feet and inhaling deeply, letting out an earth-shattering ROAR and trying to make himself sound as big and intimidating as possible.

-------- WILD JOURNALISTS !
All it took was one roar, and BOOM. Steve the hairy ass bonobo with bongos for chesitcles was on the move, crying in terror as he took the Hoothoot with him. A wind whistled a seductive cat call as he ran away, and that was the last time Steve was hanging around these hostile parts. Not long after "the incident", an excitable Rattata ran out after trailing the legendary Steve's footprints. <Wurmple! Here they are! Do these tracks satisfy you yet?! I'm telling you, this is huge!> The Rattata jumped in front of the Growlithe's path, pointing her nose at the fascinating tracks like a pointer dog.
After shouting for her colleague, an exhausted Wurmple tripped over the arched roots of a pine tree. Rubbing his rear end as he picked up his fallen journal and eyeglasses, he approached the tracks with a tired sigh. They were doing this routine over and over, and it was such a drag at times. <My friend, can't you see this homo sapien right next to us? She clearly made these marks.> The Wurmple sighed as if this was obvious, but the Rattata refused to believe it!
Neither Pokemon took note that the foot prints were at least twice as large as Pepper's feet, implying that they thought she had large feeties. Rude.

Pepper took one look at the Wurmple and her voice rose in a shrill scream. She snatched her puppy up and took off down the pathway as fast as she could, her heart beating hard in her ears in a harsh Thump-Thump and her scream lingering behind her. She clutched Banjo to her as she ran, paying no attention to anything outside of getting away from the bug! "OH MY GODDDDDDDDDDDDD!" she wailed when she finally stopped, trembling and looking around and praying internally that there were no more bugs to be had. She clutched at Banjo and the Pokeball still clutched in one hand and she knelt trembling in the middle of the path, hyperventillating and trying to get control of herself. Maybe she should count herself finished with Route 1. There were bugs. The very thought made her skin prick as if bugs were crawling on her and she did the 'OH MY GOD BUGS!' heebie jeebie dance in place before hugging Banjo until he yelped in protest. She winced and nodded, drawing back carefully and examining him. He licked her face and garumphed, looking around to try to determine where she'd run to in her blind panic.

[style=height:239px] POKEMON ENCOUNTER Pepper had to be more careful when she ran away, because she only ended up running into a spider's nest instead. Cobwebs surrounded the entire tree she was leaning against, but if she hated bug pokemon so much this route was certainly not the place to be. Especially when she stepped near a spinarak that skittered out of the way and he instantly lashed out at her without any remorse for the trainer. Hissing in a low voice as he didn't appreciate it, but he also didn't say much either. Especially since he preferred living alone, but it was clear he had made this area his home for a while. The spinarak was very large too, but really not by that much. Since the average size was a little smaller than him, but his fangs clicked lightly. String shot out of the spinarak's mouth to start to wrap around Pepper or at least attempt to. Then suddenly the spinarak lowered it's abdomen to point it up at Pepper's body to shoot out a poisonous barb to get her to run away from this area. It was clear it didn't want her here.

Pepper obliged. She shrieked and spun, grabbing Banjo again and jumping up, running for her life yet again. The barbs struck her back, caught mostly by her coat, and she dashed for the path. To hell with Route 1! It was bad luck! But what about that Buneary? Tears filled Pepper's eyes, fear and frustration making her indecisive. She stumbled, running blind, and fell to her knees, scraping them up. Only her instincts to protect Banjo kept her from face planting on top of the Growlithe, who squirmed out of her arms and licked her face. He turned and looked around them. If they kept meeting bugs like that, then Pepper was going to get them lost. ...he wondered how long it would take her to realize that she had a fire type starter Pokémon and could burn the bugs to a crisp.

Luckily for poor Pepper, this MOD took pity on her and decided to put an end to her suffering. From now on, she'd be protected from the bugs for a while. However, it would only last until the Pokémon that hopped out of a shaking bush just now was either defeated or caught by the trainer. Or both.
The suddenly appearing creature was a Buneary that has been searching for some excitement. The small bunny sniffed the air, sensing a human's and a Growlithe's scent in the air. It looked around, turning its small head left and right, trying to find the two. When it finally made a 180° turn, it spotted the trainer kneeling on the ground, the fire type in her arms.
<Hello! You are a trainer, right? Do you wanna fight?> The Buneary was bouncing up and down as it asked Pepper, cocking its head to the side and smiling happily at the human. It was really excited to see a trainer and wanted to find out how strong she was. <Come on! Let's battle!>

Pepper stared at the Buneary. It definitely couldn't be the one she was searching for. She sighed. Maybe she should take it as a sign? She looked down at Banjo, who'd reached the same conclusion that she had by smelling the Buneary - it smelled completely different. Maybe it could tell them where to find the other one? She couldn't understand speech, but...oh! Her Baltoy was psychic! She threw out a Pokeball and Voodoo appeared, floating above the ground as she stared at the Buneary. When she heard the Buneary out she translated to Pepper. Pepper bit down on her lower lip. "Voodoo, tell her that we'll fight her if she could tell us if she knows about another Buneary that might have been hurt by the Lotad. Her legs were badly injured before Banjo scared the Lotad away and I'm worried for her." Voodoo bounced in the air for a moment before turning back to the Buneary and translating once again.
