"remember, this is all for fun, |
[/color]" he said, eyeing the rufflet particularly, who pretended to take no notice and, with a bored expression, proceeded to preen his feathers. bringing them all back into their pokeballs bar the blitzle, renae ruffled finnikin's fur affectionately and gave him a hug before looking at the door, hearing the lock rattle and the handle turn. a challenger had appeared, something which made renae grin from ear to ear. my, he could hardly contain his excitement! standing from where he had been kneeling beside his blitzle, renae awaited his challenger and hoped they might greet each other more warmly than the last person he had battled here. training was all well and good, but renae was really hoping to make a friend out of this too. finnikin danced on the spot with jittery hooves, only his trainer's hand on his hide stopping him from actually tap-dancing out of the circle. renae might have been excited, but the blitzle was anxious. this was his first time battling with new moves he had never tried before, only been born with or given the TM for. with a wide grin, renae waited for the door to open so he could meet this stranger who would hopefully be the newest addition to his friends list.

Marlaey was excited. She had a battle coming up! A full six on six match too, which would be really exciting for her. It was rare that anyone wanted these types of battles because everyone's Pokémon were on so many different levels. But she had managed to find someone on her wavelength, well he found her actually, but it didn't make much of a difference. Brushing aside a few strands of rebellious hair, Marlaey pushed open the door to the Trainer's Lounge and made her way to her assigned room. She hoped she wasn't too late, she'd had to visit the Pokémon centre before coming here. Turning the handle of the door she walked inside to find her opponent ready and waiting. She beamed at the young man and his blitzle, "Hi there! My name's Marlaey!" she said happily. Looking at the jittery zebra Pokémon she smiled, "He's gorgeous! So handsome.. What's his name?" She was really hoping for a good battle, but more than that. she wanted to start making new friends in this region. She only knew a handful of people so far!

"marlaey! i never gave you my name before, did i? renae, lovely to see you again, |
[/color]" he said, hoping to gloss entirely over the fact that he had a feminine name to go with his feminine personality. patting finnikin on his spiky mane - avoiding the arcing electricity that sparked along his body like a champion, since he was an expert accustomed to the dangers of his pokemon by now - he ushered the nervous little creature forward to meet the girl, murmuring wordless syllables under his breath to reassure the blitzle. " his name is finnikin, he's a nervous little thing. my newest addition,[/color]" he said proudly, and the blitzle nosed into the girl's hand, nickering softly. renae looked down at his hands and then back up at marlaey's face, smiling grandly as his face looked a lot more confident than he truly actually felt.

"Renae", she said happily, testing the name out for herself. It suited him she thought. She shook his hand, beaming as he introduced her to his blitzle. she had never seen one up close before and she marvelled at how well Renae handled him. The electrical sparks seemed to just miss him every time they jumped across the blitzle's mane. "Aww, finnikin is such a sweet name for him!" she said warmly and softly as she gently touched the young pokemon's nose. Smiling, she wondered what pokemon she would choose for this first battle. She wanted to show Renae her pokemon too because she was just as proud of them as he clearly was of his! Taking out a pokeball she grinned at him and released her Turtwig. "This is LittleFoot, we've been together since the start, I caught her at the ranger station!" LittleFoot waved her tiny leaf about and shook her head, eager to battle, and also... quite hungry.
Holding the egg in her arms, Marlaey looked down at her grass type and murmered, "Be nice." To Renae she said, alomost apologetically, "She's quite feisty for a grass type! Oh, that sounds lovely, we could have a great chat then about our pokemon and everything!"

"littlefoot is a cutie. i've never been to the ranger station, my mareep, melody, has been with me since i was a kid. |
[/color]" he said, a little envious of the fun and daring adventure it must have been to go into the ranger station and have no clue what was going to appear before her. finnikin was growing to like marlaey more and more, and he nosed into her and rubbed his head and neck up her side, whinnying softly and making sure to control his sparks so they wouldn't sting the poor girl. renae grinned, and folded his arms over his chest as he watched him. so long as finnikin didn't get too attached and didn't want to battle, renae was happy that the shy, clumsy little thing was finally coming out of his shell - literally, since he had been this way since he hatched from an egg on route one. " excellent, it's a date then,[/color]" he said, then involuntarily flushed in embarrassment. trying hard to recover himself, he managed to stutter, " s-so, ah, shall w-we battle?[/color]" sending finnikin to the middle of the arena that was handily set up in the middle of the room, renae indicated that marlaey should go first, since he had been here and longer, but more because he just liked to play the role of the gentleman every once in a while, for the fun of it. with a laugh ever-present on his face, renae was determined not to get serious about this battle and to be okay with losing if that were to happen. this was a friendly battle between friends, and it could probably lead to one of the most fulfilling relationships he had in the entire region. he definitely wanted to see her again, and again, and if he messed it up now by being too serious he could never forgive himself. with a grin he pointed finnikin forward and mouthed 'i love you baby' to the zebra before waiting on marlaey's first move.

"You haven't? It's a really nice place. My growlithe Harper has been my partner since he was a pup, but we visited the Ranger Station to find him a companion to play with. We hadn't realised how lucky we'd get! She's such a little tomboy too.." Marlaey smiled warmly at her turtwig, who looked curiously at the egg in her arms. Another one? Hell, she thought, this girl never stops hatching eggs! LittleFoot was much more interested in battling, eggs could wait. She glanced at the blitzle in front of her, grinning. Woo! A type advantage already! Not that she really needed it though, she was fantastic after all.
Marlaey felt so honoured that Finnikin had warmed to her so soon. She stroked the zebra's nose and forehead, scratching him behind the ears. "Hmmm?" Marlaey murmured, completely enthralled by Renae's pokemon, almost forgetting their battle, "Oh yes! Of course!"
Making her way to the other end of the arena, Marlaey smiled her thanks at Renae, nodding to her turtwig. "Ready?" she asked her grass type. LittleFoot growled eagerly. "Ok, let's start with withdraw and tackle attack! Go for it LilFoot!" The turtwig tucked herself into her shell, boosting her defence, before she jumped out and ran at the blitzle. HEr stubby legs didn't carry her very quickly, but maybe she'd still land a hit!

"let's go! alright finnikin, don't be scared now, it's just a bat-- |
[/color]" it was too late. as renae had feared, the jittery Pokémon suddenly got scared as the turtwig rumbled towards him, and tried to dodge out of the way - but instead, fell over his own legs twisted beneath him and tumbled to the floor. shaking his head, sparks flying out of his mane, renae called out to the little guy in reassurance. " it'll be alright, baby! let's try a tail whip and a double kick combo.[/color]" given some direction, he seemed to calm down and the blitzle warmed up to the battle a little more. crackling the sparks in his tail menacingly, he then charged in towards the mean turtwig who had freaked him out so much, aiming two kicks towards her little green head in quick succession. renae cheered heartily for his little blitzle, whose first attacks in his first battle had been a roaring success. he had another trick up his sleeve to come yet - his blitzle knew flame charge, super effective against this turtwig, which would cancel out his inability to use the often-fatal charge and shock wave combo. but he would wait and see what came next before bringing out the big guns. it wasn't like renae at all to strategise and plan ahead, but he felt the need to impress marlaey and put up a really good fight. this was going to turn into something he would really enjoy.

Marlaey was beaming at the pokemon match before her. She loved this thrill. Cradling the egg carefully in both her arms for support, she gave the egg as much love and attention as she could. But it didn't feel too near hatching yet, which gave her time to concentrate on the battle at hand.
Her turtwig's first attacks were successfu, and though she felt proud of that she still felt a little guilty at frightening the cute zebra. Almost reaching out to him instinctively, she had to consciously hold herself back and support her own pokemon. LittleFoot was no match for the speed her opponent possessed, but she did have a sturdiness about her that made her feel confident. Ducking into her shell she felt the blitzle's hooves thud against her compacted shell. Hell that hurt! She felt a bit dizzy once she reappeared, but that was no matter. Shaking her head she focused on the zebra momentarily before summoning as much strength as she could muster and charging at Finnikin. Her superpower attack would do some good damage, but it had to hit first! And there was always that worry that the blitzle would use his speed.
Marlaey knew her pokemon well and tried to play to their strengths, but sometimes some of them had their own ideas. LittleFoot for instance, was convinced she was unbeatable. a trait that often got her into a heap of trouble!

"keep it up, finn baby! you're going great. |

LittleFoot usually felt more than gentle rivalry in battle, but that was just her nature. Marlaey was happy enough to treat this as a friendly match. Her pokemon needed more experience and she wanted a new friend. Win win for everyone!
LittleFoot panted slightly after the superpower attack. She was glad she'd reinforced her defences beforehand, but she was still a bit worn out from the move. Ugh,.. it would make her even slower now! Shaking her head she frowned, concentrating on the flighty zebra in front of her. A speedy attack was coming next, she just knew it. And right as she thought that the blitzle came for her, sending her spinning across the battlefield with a sharp quick attack.
"Wow.." Marlaey gasped, impressed by such a fast and well placed move.
LittleFoot got to her feet dizzily and glared at Finnikin. Sending rings of energy towards him she tried to drain him of some energy, to boost her own.
