Aaron looked around. there were a lot of trees here. but for some reason he had yet to see a single Pokémon. were they hiding from him? or did they hide from something else? or were there simply no Pokémon here at all? he looked around. did he just see movement, or were it simply his imagination? he grabbed his pokeball from inside his sweater. there were several pockets inside it for some reason. in one of them a Pokedex were barely visible. and in another one something that looked a little like a sewing kit. that were all that were visible during the time he used to get his pokeball. he had to be ready, just in case. he looked from one tree to another, without seeing anything. the lack of Pokémon began to become very annoying. how were he supposed to make his Ryhorn stronger if there were no Pokémon to battle?

It was true there were a lot of pokemon on Route one, however it was incorrect to say that they were all hiding. The problem was not that they were afraid of humans, no there were so many going by now a days that none of them personally cared anymore to venture out. No, the problem here was that in a few bushes, maybe a couple feet from Aaron, was a horrid smelling Nidoran.
The poor guy didn't want to smell. Oh no! He loved being nice smelling, how else would he charm the ladies? No his problem was that a few Pidgeys he angered earlier in the week got pay back. They had pooped all over him. Now he was trying to venture his way to the close pond but Aaron had to appear! He couldn't cross the path looking like this! It would be an outrage! So he lied in wait, hoping the human would "luck out" and not smell his stench. Because of a cold or lack of scent, whatever it was, just make him walk past without question.

Aaron blinked. what was that smell? it smelled almost as bad as his fathers cooking. and once you had smelled his fathers cooking, you would almost never smell anything like it. he looked over to the bush that the smell came from.
''i know you are in there whatever you are''
he said, backing away from the bush a little. his pokeball enlarged itself. he were ready for battle. that is, if he could stand the smell long enough to battle without fainting.

Nidoran cringed in horror as the trainer spoke, knowing that his awful stench had been found out. However, he did not want to expose the horrors of his poop-slathered body to the world, and so he retreated a few more steps back into the bushes, trying without much avail to cover up his scent and get away. No, no, no way. He did not want to be found like this!
<Just p-pretend you smelled nothing! Carry on your way!> he urged, his face flaming with embarrassment. Those stupid Pidgey! He wished he'd never angered them in the first place. They didn't have to resort to such low measures, but of course... they had. And now he was covered in bird poo and blocked by his embarrassment from being able to go and clean it off.
Lovely, right?
Nidoran is trying to hide!

Aaron blinked. He heard something. And he knew that this were a nidoran. But why did it hide? Was it from the nidoran that awful smell came from. He looked around, and noticed that he was in the way for it. He were standing between it and a pond, or maybe a lake. He did not know. Most likely a pond.
''listen, i am maybe unable to understand you, and i don't know if you understand me, but i will turn away so that you can get to the pond. And then a little after if i can find you i will battle you. So i am just going to stand with my face towards the tree there''
Aaron walked over to a tree, staring at it. This nidoran had to be shy. Or maybe embarrassed. Neither way, he would not be able to battle it this way. He had to be friendly first. Maybe the nidoran would even join him. But that was highly unlikely. What did he have that the nidoran could benefit from? After all, the only thing he could offer were seeing the world and getting stronger.
Aaron now have no way of seeing the nidoran

Oh, thank goodness. <Thank you!> Nidoran said, already on the path and running full speed across it. He wanted to get across before the human could change it's mind and turn around, seeing him covered in Pidgey-poo and embarrassed as hell. He ran straight to the pond, immersing himself head to foot in the freezing cold water, gasping with the chill but not emerging until he could barely hold his breath any longer. Shaking off, he sighed in relief when he noticed that all of the Pidgey poo was gone.
A nearby Lotad, however, was not as pleased. Angry, the Pokemon climbed out of the water and spat out a mouthful of poop-infested liquid, glaring at Nidoran. <You idiot!> she shrieked at him. <You've contaminated my pond!> Unwilling to listen to any explanation whatsoever, she hit him with a quick Absorb attack.
<Ahh!> the Nidoran yelped in panic. <Help!>
The pond wasn't too far from the other side of the path. Perhaps the trainer could hear his pleas and come to his aid? He could fight, certainly, but this Lotad had friends in the pond, and he wouldn't stand a chance if he were alone.

Aaron turned toward the pond. did he just hear a lotad? a lotad would have been a good addition to the team. he ran toward the pond, just to see the lotad attack a nidoran. that must have been the bad smelling one. and that pond were probably the lotad`s territory. he saw no other choice than to battle. he were still holding the pokeball. he held his hand out and the pokeball opened. ''Rade, horn attack the lotad!'' Aaron yelled as the red beam came out of the pokeball. as Rade materialized he charged forward, lowering his head as he aimed for the lotad with his horn. he picked up speed and shortened the distance faster and faster as he closed in on the lotad.

Rade backed up as the absorb hit him. he could feel the energy being drained. he shaked his head to clear it, before he spoke. '' The Nidoran is not with us, but i think my trainer wishes to capture it. and you. and i do what he wishes'' Rade lowered his head, ready for another attack. Aaron looked at them as they apparently were talking. he looked at Rade as he lowered his head. a couple more attacks combined with Rade`s weight could be the thing he needed to weaken the lotad enough to try a capture. ''Rade, another Horn Attack'' Aaron said calmly. Rade charged again. this time the distance were shorter, but it would still do damage when it hit. Rade charged and picked up the speed he could and aimed for the lotad. Rade uses Horn Attack on lotad

With little time to react between the short distance between the two Pokemon, the Lotad was struck by the full force of the blow. Getting rammed in a retrograde, backwards motion into her pond, she spit out some of the water that she accidentally swallowed. Gasping and spitting in a tired mess, the Lotad was quick to crawl out of the water. Right as she was doing that, the Nidoran, all nice and clean, had hidden himself behind the trainer’s legs. She glared at him, seething because he had asked a human’s help for something he did. He needed to be punished, dammit!
<How about you tell your stupid trainer to butt out. He’s not impressing anybody!> She raged, charging ahead at the Rhyhorn with fierce determination. This wasn’t a health stealing absorb, that much was for sure. The chroma on her body was tainted by the tree’s shadows as she screamed at the top of her lungs.
It was a loud, startling sound that was combined with a tackle. It was a trick that she had picked up from some ghosts once, and it usually made her enemies flinch. The Astonish wouldn’t be as strong as the Absorb, but she was too pissed to care at this point.

Rade got pushed back a little by the attack, but not much. his weight kept him from going far, and he were still close to the lotad. but he could feel something weird. as if his body were unable to move. but he could still talk. '' I can not do that. he is a human. he can not understand us. and to be his first battle that i know about, i think he is doing pretty well.'' Rade said, breathing deeply. the absorb and astonish had taken a little off him. but he could still fight. Aaron really wished he could understand pokemon. understanding the mid-battle speeches would have been fun. but he could see a opportunity. the lotad were close to Rade, and a horn attack at close range without speed could maybe not make the lotad fly off like the first time, but it could do damage. ''Rade, try another Horn Attack'' Aaron said, but he instantly knew something were wrong. Rade`s body were acting weird. he had heard about it before. flinch, the additional effect some moves can have that makes the pokemon unable to move, usually long enough to perform another attack. this could be harder than he first thought. he looked down at his feet, just to notice the Nidoran hiding behind him. he smiled and looked back up again. even if he lost, he would get the Nidoran away from here. there were no way a lotad could keep up with him. Rade is flinched and are unable to attack

The Lotad twitched at the Rhyhorn’s encouraging words, even though he talked funny. Yes, the words were like eating the bark off of a tree, with no syrup on it at all. Claws grating against a rock. A Whismur’s screamed within the forest. Nothing he said was making her happy at all, and she was about to make him pay for it.
<How about you speak normal, ya idiot.> She chirped in her midst of frustration, shaking her body as a series of vines started to stretch out of the lily pad on her back. There was no mistaking the Absorb attack that was headed right for the Rhyhorn. She noticed the damage it did the first time compared to what her Astonish did, and to be smart, merely adjusted her actions to the situation.
<H-hey. Can’t you see he’s helpless!> The Nidoran barked out, stepping on the trainer’s shoes as he watched in horror. What was she doing, bullying yet another Pokémon? Fretting this much wasn’t going to do anything, but he was a little scared to go in and fight the Lotad. Wasn’t this a matter of pride for the Rhyhorn? He figured that he should stay put and see what happens, but if it got any worse, he was going to help out his new friends.

Rade twitched as the absorb hit him. he once again felt his energy being drained. he could feel his body beginning to function again. time for payback. Aaron began to worry. a few more absorbs and he would be done for. and he began to get tired of telling Rade to do horn attack. but now that the flinch were over, he can do another attack. ''Rade, do whatever you like'' with these words, Aaron gave Rade permission to attack any way he wanted as long as he did not kill the lotad. Rade breathed deeply when Aaron said this, happy. as long as he did not kill the lotad, he could attack any way he wanted. and at this close range, a horn attack aimed directly at the lotad could be dodged, but if it hit it could do some decent damage. but there were another option. if he just did that it would be harder to dodge. '' With pleasure. AND I TALK THE WAY I WANT'' with these words, Rade lowered his head down and a little to the right, before charging the very short distance and letting his head go upwards and to the left at the lotad. and this attack were not just a move commanded by the trainer, but also an attack made by his hearth. that were the way he thinked, with his hearth, instead of his brain. but the way the attack were performed could make the lotad go up into the air a little if it hit. Rade used Horn attack on lotad, with a chance of making the lotad go up into the air if it hits

Lotad was indeed launched up into the air, and landed on her lilypad-like back with an audible >Oomph!< Kicking her tiny feet, she managed to right herself, but now she was weakening. Her small body quivered with fatigue and her legs seemed to just want to give out under her. No! She couldn't give up. These rude, rude people had to be punished for attacking her and contaminating her lovely pond. It was unforgivable! Vines stretched out from her small body again, trying to suction health from the Rhyhorn. ::lotad:: Lotad used Absorb.

Rade backed up a little, but he could not evade the absorb. he felt his health get sucked once again. this were not good. but even with the little energy lotad stole could she survive forever. Aaron could see this too. the lotad were weak now. why it kept fighting were unknown. but he had to finish this. there were more distance now, but in his weakened state Rade would be unable to do as much damage as before. until now the lotad have taken what? 4-5 hits of the horn attack backed up with some absorb. it had to be weakened enough to try a pokeball. he grabbed one and enlarged it, before jumping up into the air. ''dear Arceus please let this work'' Aaron whispered to himself as he threw the pokeball. the pokeball came at high speed towards the lotad. he just hoped that he would actually manage to capture it. if not he had to weaken it more, but another absorb could be the end of Rade. maybe he could survive a astonish, but he were unsure. he thought about things that could go wrong until his feet hit the ground again. he watched the result. Aaron used a pokeball on Lotad

Lotad's eyes widened. A Pokeball was coming her way! Looking like a apparition now she scrambled to try and get out of the way, that didn't work out as planed. hit by the Pokeball she was sucked inside. She twisted and turned, but weakened she struggled. After a good few seconds the ball clicked and the Lotad was caught.

Aaron walked over to Rade, putting a hand on his head before walking over to the pokeball. he just stood there, looking at it for a few moments before he picked it up. he grabbed his pokedex and scanned the pokeball. he then put the pokedex away. ''i think i will call you....Lora. yeah, that is a good name'' Aaron said, putting the pokeball inside his sweater again. he turned towards Rade again, and remembered the Nidoran. he looked at it, before walking over to it. ''hey, i have to ask. do you want to be one of my pokemon? you get to see alot of places and grow stronger. the stronger you are the bigger chance you have to get the ladies you know'' Aaron said, half sitting down so that he would not look intimidating. he could need another pokemon, and a Nidoran did have a powerful evolution. but if the Nidoran refused, he would respect that. besides, he needed to get to a pokemon center as soon as possible to heal Rade and Lora. Aaron is trying to talk Nidoran into becoming one of his pokemon

<Well, I don't know about that....> Nidoran said. After all, the life of being a Wild Pokémon was great and he had friends and....But the Trainer did seem nice....he wasn't too sure now. <Err, what do I get out of being his Pokémon?> He asked the Ryhorn. After all, he's seen some Trainers abuse their Pokemon, how was he sure that he wasn't one of them? Nidoran is deciding.

Rade had managed to turn around while Aaron had been speaking, and looked at the Nidoran when he spoke. Rade began thinking a little. '' well, i just recently met him, but he seems like a good guy. he told me that he travels just to have fun. he just started his travel but he knows some stuff about how to be a kind and loving trainer. and i can feel that even if we lose a battle he will still love us. but then again, it is just me. and trust me, if you refuse, he wont sneak throw a pokeball at you like i have seen others do. oh, not to mention that he do have good agility and can prevent us from being stolen...other than that, i can only give one reason. he will love us no matter what and try to get us stronger....wait, that was two reasons.'' Rade and Nidoran were obviously speaking, so Aaron got up and leaned towards a tree, waiting for the response. now he really wished he could understand them. Rade is speaking the ears off Nidoran...not literally

<W-wait...did you say 'Keep us from being stolen?! I have a chance of being stolen?! T-that's it, I'm out of here!> The Nidoran was scared to death of being stolen, he flew out of the area faster then you could say Pikachu. Sure he acted though but he was a wimp inside.
