Chloe was on her own out in the first route, leaning on her cane as she walked. She had refused to degrade her Pokemon by riding on his back so early in her journey, and her pride kept her from admitting that she was hurting, so her Doduo-- whom she had named Twizzler-- was in his Pokeball awaiting for his trainer to call on her.
She stopped at a tree about five minutes into her travels and leaned against its trunk to catch her breath. Would it really be so bad to hitch a ride on the bird? He was big enough to carry her, as it were. It wouldn't be so degrading. . . A lot of people rode Doduo and its evolution during Pokemon Races and stuff, and her leg really was bothering her. . .
Chloe shook her head. No, she was there to prove that she was just like everyone else, and she was not going to get a ride. She would just tough it out. The pain was more like a discomfort, anyway.
Sighing, she shouldered off of the tree and continued to walk. When her pain became too much for her to walk, only then would she admit defeat and climb onto Twizzler. She would be perfectly alright until then.
She was so caught up in her own dillema's that she had forgotten to look for some wild Pokemon. She stopped for a second to look around, as if she was ammending for the lost time, but she could hear nor see anything, so she sighed once again and started her walk, this time paying a bit more attention to where she was going.

A small serpentine creature slithered through the bushes, ignoring any Pokemon he might be hurting or disturbing. "Ekansss," it hissed.
The snake's long tail reached up and wound around a berry. Ekans gave it a weak tug and the berry came off easily. The sly serpent put it in its mouth and chewed slowly.
Suddenly, it heard something coming from a little bit away. The snake popped its head out of the bushes and spotted the trainer. Ekans grinned as it saw how weak and tired the human was. Slowly, it slithered out of the bushes toward Chloe, wondering whether she had any useful items to steal.

Chloe stopped when she saw the Ekans slithering toward her. She blinked at it, then fished in her pocket for the Pokedex she had recieved from the Pokemon Ranger and opened it up to see what it had to say about the snake-like pokemon.
"Ekans, the snake Pokemon. It sneaks through grass without making a sound and strikes unsuspecting prey from behind," the Pokedex announced. Chloe tucked the little device away and pulled out a Pokeball, throwing it into the air to let Twizzler out.
"Ekans, huh? It's a Poison Type, so I'll have to be careful if Twizzler gets poisoned," she muttered to herself between ragged breaths. "Twizzler, use Peck."
Her Doduo tilted back both of its head and then lunged forward at the Ekans, the pair of beaks glowing slightly in preparation for the attack. The reached the snake-like Pokemon in no time at all and Twizzler lunged forward to drive his beaks into the Ekans.

The Ekans carefully study the Pokedex, never have it seen anything like that. <Psssh, that doesssn't look like anything I ssshould ssstea!> It stated, dragging the s's with his fork like tongue.
The snake pokemon continued to study the trainer and the pokedex that she held in her hands, but soon got distracted once it noticed a twin headed bird pokemon standing in front of it. <Ekansss!> It hissed at the pokemon before slithering out of the way of the glowing two beaks aiming at its long, thin body. Its thin body seemed to have help it dodge the attack elegantly.
"I sssee you like to play!> The Ekans hissed again before slithering into a patch of tall grass, moving around smoothly and quietly, in hopes of making its foe worry a little, but which in a few seconds the snake's head poked out of the grass, and poisonous barbs could be seen shooting at Twizzler. Ekans is using Poison Sting!

Twizzler watched the undergrowth warily, both heads waving in opposite directions to look for the Ekans that had evaded him. The right head caught site of a purple flash and the little white barbs flying toward him, and with the use of some fancy foot-work he managed to get out of the way of most of the Stings, but he still took quite a few.
"Quick Attack, Twizzler!" Chloe demanded while her Doduo shook his head to clear the pain. She finally decided that she had to sit down, so she sat with her legs under her and her hands folded neatly over the cane in her lap.
Twizzler called out a battle cry, then darted toward the area the Ekans had been last seen, becoming but a blur as he raced forward, trying to smack into the Ekans to cause a bit of damage.

The Ekans chuckled in amusement at the Doduo’s actions; the way his feet moved to dodge its Poison Sting was quite interesting. It hadn’t expected such an easy dodge, but on the bright side it did manage to strike a couple around the feet. The Doduuo seemed a little big for its own tastes, personally. So making a snack out of this bird brain would be out of the question.
Its true intentions were to swipe anything that looked interesting off of the human girl and retreat. But just as it decided to come closer to Chloe for a quick analysis of what she was carrying on the outside, it was caught off guard by the Quick Attack, getting trampled on in the process.
Its body rolled around a couple of times before it managed to get right side up, hissing out warnings at the Doduo with a Leer attack. Slowly its body began to coil up as its alluring eyes tried to distract the Doduo from any twitchy movements. Making odd bobbing movements with its head, just waiting for the right moment to entangle Twizzler in its Wrap attack, one of its favorite techniques.
’Yesss….He issss clossseee enoughhhh.’ The snake thought, suddenly cancelling the Leer attack while pouncing at Twizzler with its entire body. Ready to take command by binding his two heads together, anything that was necessary to win the match.

Twizzler was too distracted to be effected by the Ekans' Leer, as the two heads had started to bicker about one thing or another, but that also meant that it was taken off-guard by the Wrap attack the Ekans so abruptly tried.
Chloe sighed in irritation at her Pokemon. As far as she was concerned he deserved to be hit by the Wrap if he was going to just bicker with himself. Which was odd. . . If a human was fighting with themselves they be labeled insane or something. It was good thing Doduo had two heads. . . Or something like that.
Twizzler squawked in surprise as the Ekans wrapped around him, and his heads were pinned together, which they didn't seem to like one bit. However, his legs were completely free, so he started to run around wildy, trying to dislodge the Ekans from around his body.
"Twizz, slam into a tree or something!" Chloe suggested. It would hurt Twizzler, too, but maybe it would be enough to knock the Ekans off of him so he could retaliate with another Peck or something.
That was just what Chloe's Doduo did. He ran toward the first tree that came into his sights, using Quick Attack to give him a little burst of speed, helping his momentum. At the last possible second he leaped at the tree and twisted so that Ekan's body would take most of the impact if it stayed attached to him.

The Ekans soon relized the danger he was in with the speed of the Quick Attack and the force he would hit the tree if he didn't abandon ship. The Poison type pokemon let out an frustrated hiss as his lean body attempted to wiggle off of the Doduo. His tail was tied in a knot around one of the Doduos neck, he had had to tie a knot to hold the wrap in place. The two heads had been struggling quite a bit.
With a groan, he relized he wasn't going to get out in time. No hands, so he had to pull himself up and use his fangs to ease his tail out of the knot. Moments before they contacted with the tree, the purple pokemon slid off. The Ekans landed directly on his head, causing him to let out a weak groan and as if that wasn't enough, the Dodou trampled over him before hitting the tree.
Due to the fact that they were so close to the tree when they fell, the snake pokemon was trapped underneath the ditzy bird pokemons foot. "Ekaaaansssss" he hissed weakly, unable to dislodge himself. Right now, he was feeling a tad woozy from all the pain.
He was able to think stright though, and released a Poison Barb attack at the bird pokemon's underside. They would feel that.

Twizzler collided with the tree and then stumbled backward, feeling dizzy and uncoordinated. He wobbled around for a while as he attempted to gain his bearings, and luckily in his stupor he had moved out of the way of the poisonous needles.
"Twizz, get a hold of yourself and use Peck!" Chloe demanded, sighing. She had been expecting as much, but she had hoped that the Ekans would have been slammed into the tree as well. At least he was no longer attached her to lovely Pokemon.
The Doduo shook both of his heads. The trees were still spinning around him, but he caught a glimpse of the Ekans' scales, locked onto it, then darted toward him. Both of his beaks started to glow a dull white in preparation of the attack, and he lowered his heads to make them even with the snake's body.

The peck attacks shot after the Ekans like drills, and with two heads it was more like a Fury Attack if one thought about it. The multiple strikes forced the snake to recoil back, attempting to flee from the attacks long enough so he could make a strike of his own. Though he had to admit, the power of the move was pretty darn powerful, he was half tempted to call mercy here and now. ’But that would be stupid. I’m no sissy, that’s for sure. ‘ The Ekans hissed, his mouth opening as if preparing for a Bite attack when more of those poisonous needles shot out of his mouth. As long as he had a steady supply of venom in his body, the attack wouldn’t weaken as long as he kept the onslaught of Poison Sting.
Through the various shots, the Ekans mumbled out a jumbled speech of words, unable to be deciphered by human or Pokémon. So he had been told not to talk with your mouth full, but this was a whole new meaning to the saying. Wouldn’t mom be pissed if she saw this? She’d probably beat him up, and then beat Twizzler up with one hit. That was how cool his mom was, that is, if snakes didn’t abandon their young after they hatched. A sad story to others that had parents, but like he cared. On occasion he had met his mother, but she really didn’t want anything to do with him, which was how he came to admire her. Just the thought of her made his lips curl up in a slight smile, completely out of the blue for Chloe and Twizzler.

Twizzler bent her legs at the knee, coiled her muscles, then sprang over the Poison Stings that were coming his way. He landed behind the Ekans and didn't bother waiting for Chloe to give him a command. He pivoted on one foot to turn and face his opponent, then drove his two beaks downward for another Peck attack.
Chloe sighed and set her cane next to her on the ground as opposed to on her lap so she could shift into a more comfortable position. She was glad that her Doduo had managed not to get Poisoned yet, but she wasn't sure how long that luck would last. At least he was doing pretty fairly by himself.

The Ekans felt two sharp point drive into his back. He let out a loud hiss of pain and squirmed out from underneath the Peck. He turned to look at the Doduo and used Leer. His eyes flashed red for a moment as he used the move before he shot forward, using the Wrap attack.

Once again, Twizzler started to bicker among his two heads. They pecked at each other and they made horrible squawking sounds as it rocked back and forth on its feet. This had kept it from noticing the Leer attack, but what about the Wrap attack?
"Twizz! Cut it out and focus on the fight! Dodge that Wrap attack and use Quick Attack!" Chloe demanded angrily, tired of her Pokemon's constant bickering.
Twizzler looked up in time to see the Ekans flying toward him for a Wrap attack. He opened his beaks out a fearful caw before running out of the way. He pivoted on one talon, then shot toward the Ekans for another Quick Attack, just as his trainer had told him too.

Sharp talons scraped against its body as the Quick Attack once again ended up trampling all over its body, cringing its body to try and protect itself from as much damage as possible until the bird finished his attack. For one of the fastest attacks around, that one felt like it lasted forever. This time around, it was actually afraid of this mighty bird.
’Okay then…I think I should take…Plan C!’ The Ekans thought, as if it was the most devious and sinister plan in the world. The next thing that happened would catch any new trainer off guard, and every Ekan’s lover a heart attack. It actually had slight tears in its eyes as it made a hasty retreat into the surrounding bushes, hopefully never to be seen again.
<I give! I give! Leave me be!> The Ekans cried before all traces of it being here seemed to have vanished, and all was quiet in Route One.

Panting, Twizzler scampered up to stand next to Chloe, who stood up to set her hand on his back. "Good job, Twizz. You did pretty good for fighting with yourself most of the time," she cooed teasingly, stroking his back.
Twizzler crowed and gave Chloe an affectionate peck on the shoulder with one of his head and his trainer sighed. "I wish I could have caught that Pokemon, but oh well. I'll just get the next one," she breathed.
Sitting down through most of the battle had eased the pain Chloe felt in her legs, so she was a little more comfortable walking. Just in case the pain came back, she pulled a small bottle of pain killers and popped a couple before putting them back in her bag. Twizzler walked next to her, looking around in different directions for anymore Pokemon.

Further down the path, the soothing sound of flowing water could be heard, and in fact there was a small babbling brook trickling happily under a small wooden bridge that really wasn't needed at all. Atop the bridge sat a small blue Pokémon with no arms and small whisker like things protruding from either side of it's head. It seemed content to just sit staring into space, thinking about nothing.
As the Wooper, for indeed that's what it was, heard the trainer and her bird Pokémon approach, it snapped out of it's trance and stood upright, looking at them quizically. It seemed to think the bridge was to be protected... "Halt!" It squealed in Pokéspeech. "I am the Quagsire king! I will protect this bridge until I die!" What a disillusioned Pokémon. Not only did it consider itself the protector of the bridge, it thought it was a Quagsire! Odd.

Twizzler tilted his heads to opposite sides and he looked to his trainer, seeing what she wanted to do. Chloe just stopped walking a looked at the Pokemon, then took out her Pokedex to see what it had to say about the little blue creature.
"A Wooper, eh?" she said after listening to everything her little device had to say. She couldn't understand Pokespeech at all, so she had no clue what it thought it was or that it wasn't going to let her pass. "Well, Twizz, you ready for another battle?"
The Doduo turned to face the little blue Pokemon and looked ready. Chloe smiled and sat back down so she wouldn't have to stand through the majority of the fight. Maybe when this was over she would stick around and let the cold water numb her leg a little. . .
"Well, use Quick Attack!" she commanded once she was all settled on to the ground. Twizzler crowed out a battle cry, then shot toward the little Pokemon, becoming a mere blur.

Before Wooper knew it, the bird Pokémon had shot forward faster than a speeding bullet, and sent the little blue creature flying into the stream. Fortunately, the Woopers water absorb abilty restored the little health it had lost from the quick attack. With renewed vigour, the Wooper leapt back onto the land and shot a water gun attack at the doduo, whilst wagging it's tail in a tail whip attack. A simple combination of simple attacks.

Twizzler jumped up onto the railing of the bridge and ran along it with perfect balance, then jumped down behind the Wooper. Without waiting for a command from Chloe, he shot both of his heads forward for a Peck attack, his beaks glowing a dull white.
Chloe cried out as the Water Gun attack nearly hit her, but luckily it whoosed to her left, leaving her quite dry except for a few stray drops. She sighed, but refused to move more than she had to.

The Wooper was more than ready for a speedy attack, but not so prepared for an assault from behind. Nevertheless, the water and ground type whirled around just as the heads were darting forward in a Peck attack. It managed to dodge the first head, but the second hit it square in the chest, seconds after that the blue Pokémon let loose a point blank water gun attack. As it was flung backwards into the dirt, it was at least satisfied that it's attack had probably hit. Scrambling to it's feet, the Wooper assumed a fighting stance, and stared angrily at the Doduo.
