Even though it'd been almost four o'clock by the time she'd gotten off the boat, Leia had been hopeful that she'd be able to hop off the boat, run to the Lab, get a Pokemon and get through Route One before nightfall. Looking at the sky, she thought it still might be accomplished. She wasn't sure how long Route One was, but if she walked quickly, it couldn't take more than a couple hours, right?
She started walking along, when suddenly she realized she'd never introduced herself to her Pokemon. Almost laughing at her own flightiness, she quickly grabbed the Growlithe's Pokeball and pressed the white button on the front; the Pokemon inside appeared in a flash of red light.
Immediately, he was on the alert- his head was held high, his ears pressed forward, scanning the grassy fields with wide brown eyes. After he detected no danger, he sat down on his haunches and looked up at Leia, a little confused.
"Hi, there, buddy," Leia said, thoroughly pleased by the adorable factor of her starter. The puppy cocked his head at her and blinked. "I'm your trainer. My name is Leia."
The Growlithe looked her up and down, then nodded. <Very well,> he said, looking very serious, but perhaps a little pleased.
"I guess you'll need a name, too," Leia said, biting her lower lip as she thought. "Any suggestions?"
<I will be happy with whatever name you choose for me,> the puppy answered solemnly, his head held high. Leia smiled.
"Then how about Fenrir? After a wolf from mythology the Gods struggled to hold down with the strongest chains." She thought the Growlithe would appreciate that, and it seemed he did. He smiled at her and nodded, once; she knelt down and scratched him behind the ear.
"Let's get moving," she said, after a second, and the two of them headed down the road.

It may of seemed as if any day like today was normal, that is for a Trainer and her Pokemon. Yet curled up in a hollow in a tree trunk was a very young Pikachu, its head dangled out of the hole and small whimpers came from its mouth. A Bidoof lay below on the ground, his small eyes closed and breathing unsteady. <Bidoof! Get up, please, they left. Get up!> The Pikachu whimpered which turned into a loud wail. She climbed down the tree, holding the Bidoof in her arms, and sobbing.
Thats when she noticed the Trainer.
<Stay away!> She yelled at the Trainer's Pokemon before looking back at her true love, the Bidoof. She shook him well keeping an eye on the Trainer and her Pokemon.

The second he saw the two wild Pokemon, Fenrir's ears were pinned back and he growled, threateningly. Leia, on the other hand, noticed that while Pikachu was very concerned, Bidoof hadn't moved.
"Fenrir, quit," she said, putting a comforting hand on the Growlithe's shoulder. The puppy stopped growling, but didn't relax. "Is he okay?" Leia asked the Pikachu, gesturing towards Bidoof.

The Pikachu ignored the Trainer's words and hugged the Bidoof, whispering into his ear. Then she turned and looked at the Trainer and then her pet, <Go away, you hurt him. Your Trainer hurt him.> She was ready to attack if they tried to help, <Your TRAINER hurt him!> She almost screamed and the Bidoof moaned, before falling silent again.
Her eyes narrowed and she she puffed out her chest. She only glanced at the Bidoof for a second before running off, threw the bushes. <Ill be back..> She whispered to the Bidoof when she was a few feet away, so the Trainer nor the Growlithe could hear.

Leia and Fenrir looked at each other, thoroughly puzzled.
<Why did you hurt him?> Fenrir asked, curious rather than upset.
Leia was befuddled. "I don't think I did!" she protested, glancing over at the Bidoof. "I mean, if I did it was an accident. But I can't imagine what I could have done!"
The Growlithe looked at her, then twitched his ear in an indifferent sort of way. <Well, don't let it bother you,> he suggested, nonchalant. <The Pikachu is probably mistaken. We should move on.>
Leia frowned. "But..." she protested, shifting in place. "But Bidoof looks really hurt. We should help him."
Fenrir snorted, then seemed to realize his trainer wasn't kidding. <Very well. I will stand guard. But if that Pikachu comes back and tries to bother you...> He breathed out a small puff of flame.
"Thanks, Fenrir," Leia replyed, petting the puppy on the head. Then she grabbed a Potion out of her backpack and crept towards the Bidoof, spritzing some of the liquid onto its back.

The Bidoof could feel the liquid on its back and then a slight tingle, and he groaned, but hardly moved. It only took a second for the Pikachu to run up suddenly, a few plain leaf in her mouth. <Ahh..!> She screamed dropping the leafs at the Bidoof's side and poking his nose around ten times. Then she turned to the Trainer, and moved away, showing a odd fear of the human.
Moments later the Bidoof opened his eyes, and looked at the Trainer with a slight smile. Before resting his head down again. Pikachu was in shock, <Bidoof! Bidoof!> Her eyes glowed and she bent down to hug her love. He murmured slightly, <Poisoned..> Hoping the Growlithe would be able to understand the faint words.
The Pikachu again, moved away from the Trainer. Eyes wet, <You take him, and heal him. If you want...> Again she was talking to the Growlithe, she didn't want to speak to the Trainer right now, even if she brought her love back from the almost dead. <Thank.. you...> It took her a while to squeak it out. It was easy to tell she wanted to go, but she was nervous about Trainers at the moment.
Catch Bidoof?

<It says its poisoned,> Fenrir said, casting a glance over his shoulder to his trainer. <You could catch it, and we could take it with us to the Pokemon Center. Although I doubt it'll be much of an addition to your team.>
Leia frowned. "Well, we can't just leave it here," she pointed out, glancing at Pikachu- who still seemed very nervous around her, for reasons she couldn't quite puzzle out- and then at injured beaver-type Pokemon. "Alright, here we go, then," she said, and tossed the Pokeball at Bidoof.

The Pokeball easily sucked up the Bidoof, and the Pikachu gasped, she had never seem such a thing. She waved to him as he seemed to vanish, Go or not go...? Her eyes glancing at the Trainer, and she nodded with a slight smile. She sat down, picking up the leafs one-by-one. Her eyes rested on the Growlithe, <Take care of him... Please.

Fenrir wasn't entirely sure why the Pikachu kept talking to him. <We will try our best,> he offered, trying to be civil, while Leia picked up the Pokeball holding her newest acquisition.
"He'll be fine," she told Pikachu, smiling brightly at her. "No worries."
<We should keep moving,> Fenrir pointed out. Leia nodded and slipped Bidoof's Pokeball into her pocket, quickly following the Growlithe down the path.

::whismur::
A loud mouthed Whismur was perched on a rock, just belting out the most annoying song that ever existed. It was actually an Uproar attack, and he was only practicing by frightening away any Pokémon that dared to approach the stack of Pecha Berries he had right in front of him. If they were really hungry, and if they could stand hearing that annoying song of his, he planned on challenging them to a battle.
<Oh, I know a song that get’s on everybody’s nerves! Hey! Everybody’s nerves! Hey! Everybody’s nerves! Hey! And this is how it goes!> He screeched, sounding like a broken record that was just thrown off a cliff, and was still attempting to play despite all of the scratches and bumps. There wasn’t much logic to this plan of his. He was young, he was a boy, and he was stupid. What else could you really expect from him?

Leia wasn't a Pokemon, and the Uproar attack still stung. "What on earth is that?" she asked, quickly clapping her palms over her ears, trying unsuccessfully to block out the sound.
<It's a Pokemon,> Fenrir answered unneccesarily, trotting ahead. Leia jogged to keep up.
<Hey!> Fenrir called, upon seeing the Whismur. Leia blinked at the strange looking Pokemon, walking up to stand beside her Growlithe. <What are you doing? That's very annoying!>

The sight of the ruffled up pup was worth noticing, and the Whismur nodded his head in the Growlithe’s direction, not hearing a word the guy was saying. But out of the corner of your eye, if you were really paying attention, you could see his tongue sticking out at the Growlithe in a teasing manner. But he quickly slipped it back in his mouth, hiding the evidence.
<Because it’s FUN FUN FUN! SO MUCH FUN~ SING WITH ME~> He cried, spinning around on his tippy toes in an attempt to look cute, and be annoying at the same time. The Whismur sucked at the cute part, but you had to give him props for being good at being annoying.
Kill this brat?

((Yesplz.))
Fenrir's hackles rose higher when he caught the Whismur sticking its tongue out of him, and when he continued his loud and obnoxious song, the Growlithe broke into a snarl. Leia kept her hands clapped over her ears, her eyes tightly shut as she tried to block out the deafening noise.
<May I suggest,> Fenrir shouted over the din, <that we begin my training now?>
"What?" Leia asked, glancing down at the enraged puppy. "Oh, okay! Go for it, Fenrir! Bite attack!"
Fenrir was only too happy to oblige, throwing himself at the Whismur, jaws opened wide.

The Whismur felt the teeth sink into his skin and he almost screamed. He was inraged by this and let him self give the best attempt at a pound with his forelegs that he could. He was still singing, <Oh, I know a song that get’s on everybody’s nerves! Hey! Everybody’s nerves! Hey! Everybody’s nerves! Oh, I know a song that gets on Everybody's nerves! And this is how it goes! Ooohh... >
He sounded overjoyed by this loud tune, that he just kept at it no matter what. What a pest.

The Pound attack hit Fenrir in the temple and, surprised by the quick retaliation, the Growlithe dropped his still-singing victim and stumbled backwards, blinking to clear the stars from his vision. It had hurt!
Leia frowned in concern, but after hesitating a second to recover, her Pokemon still seemed eager to battle. His hackles rose, and his ears pinned back agaisnt his skull. "Cut its attack with a Growl, Fenrir," Leia called to him, "and then use Fire Spin!"
Fenrir glanced at his trainer over his shoulder, then, looking back to his opponent, he lowered his head and Growled, low and gutteral, at the Normal-type. He could barely hear the rumble over the obnoxious Whismur's singing. Then he opened his mouth and breathed out a vortex of small flames that wheeled around towards the purple Pokemon.

The Growl had done absolutely nothing to the big mouthed Whismur. Geez. Who’d like to see this kid as a Loudred? He was getting bored with the song, and stopped with a pleased grin on his face. All of those high vocals had tired him out, but it had the effect he desired. He was finally getting the attention he craved for. With his floppy rabbit ears covering most of his face, he could barely see the hints of flame spiraling towards him, catching him completely off his guard.
The weak Fire Spin had him trapped in place, in fear of touching the fiery walls around him, and causing even more damage than he would’ve wanted. The high temperatures were already starting to hurt him, with the Fire Spin still fresh and powerful, he was going to have a difficult time dodging any attacks in the next couple of turns.
The only thing he could even think of trying out was an Uproar. He was terrified of touching the flames around him on purpose, and this was the only other attack he had. Now if you thought his song from earlier was annoying, wait until you hear the sound of five fingers scratching against a chalkboard. Yeah. This attack hurt. It had that same, high pitched sound of someone that lost their voice attempting to sing “Figaro”. Those high notes were dreadfully awful.

There was, unfortuantely, no chance for Fenrir to dodge the Uproar attack, and he whimpered as it assaulted his ears, trying desperately to withstand the rolling, trilling, unbearable 'r' of the third figaro. Leia clapped her hands over her own ears, grimacing, but Fenrir's hearing was significantly better than her's and he whined, his ears pinned back and head lowered, as the sonic waves traveled over him.
Leia pitched her voice to be heard, just barely, over the crest of the Whismur's terrible singing. "For the love of... shut it up with another Bite attack, Fenrir!" She had faith he could pass through his own Fire Spin without getting hurt; after all, his Flash Fire ability made him immune against other Pokemon's fire-type attacks. Fenrir didn't bother to respond; he lunged forward once more, towards the Whismur pinned in his Fire Spin attack, his jaws opened wide.

Like a raging bull ready to jam its horn’s into its prey, this little puppy was doing the exact same thing except with his teeth. His fur coat seemed to have a mystical quality about it, absorbing whatever fire that was around it, and using it to power up his own attacks. It took away from of the pain from the Fire-Spin, but it made him able to use a horrible Bite attack on him.
Those pointy fangs had clamped themselves shut around the Whismur’s right ear, it’s more dominant side, but nevertheless, it hurt pretty darn bad. The Fire Spin’s constant damage wouldn’t stop singing his fur, hair, arms, and legs, and eventually forced him to pass out on the ground. Fire still whirling around him in a deadly blaze.
Fenrir gains a level.

Fenrir panted, tired out from the battle, his ears still ringing from the Whismur's vocal attacks. Still, he was proud: it was his first battle, and he thought he'd done pretty darn good. He'd won, at least.
"Well," Leia muttered to herself, looking at the knocked-out Whismur, "I'm not going to catch that." She wondered if she should heal the little twat before continuing on, just in case some predator Pokemon came around, but, thinking about it... she only had two Potions left, and there was no guarantee the Whismur wouldn't just start... "singing," again. So she lifted up the small, but surprisingly heavy, Pokemon and perched him on a nearly tree limb, leaning him against the tree's trunk to give him some support. Then, she turned to her Growlithe, dropped to her knees beside him and threw her arms around his neck. "That was awesome, Fenrir," she exaulted, thrilled for her Pokemon's battling techniques. "You did terrific. Let's go find some more Pokemon."
Fenrir was quietly pleased that his trainer was so proud of him, although he quickly hid it behind his usual gruff exterior, and followed her further down the route.

::volbeat:: ::zigzagoon::
From farther on the path was an endless racket, loud, rude and impolite words could be heard screamed throughout the Route. Two best friends had been in an argument for at least a good twenty minutes, and they were not planning on stopping anytime soon. It was a verbal battle to the death, but it was starting to get pretty physical.
<What are you talking about you little twit! Zigazoons are the best pokemon around.>A sassy little Zigzagoon chirped, attempting to shove the other Pokémon off of the path. The plump pokemon only succeeded in nearly tipping over, when the swift Volbeat fluttered forward sending a dirty glare back at his friend. <Dream on Stunkybag. One hit from me and you'd be out like a light.> he snapped back, turning tail and Flashing the Zigzagoon.
The pokemon was irriated enough and the blinding flash only sent him over the edge, with a might lunge he landed ontop the other pokemon and they started a fistfight.
