  1. The swarm of mutant bees came circling around once more. However, this time Jory's GAOs were prepared for the brunt of the attack. The newly evolved Oliver was leaping from bee to bee, driving them to the ground so that Neffi and Eve would be able to attack them. Emma joined Oliver in his aerial assault, dealing heavy damage to each bee she forced down. Between the two of them, they managed to bring down eight bees, but only fatally wounded two. Neffi leapt into the fray, lashing out with her claws and teeth as she began ripping into the bees on the ground, executing four them with her powerful hind legs. Eve came out of the ground underneath a bee and landed on its head, putting the beast out of its misery. Ryu stayed along the perimeter of the fight, using his bulletlike speed and his fists to intercept attacks directed at the cleanup crew, while Emma swooped in and took out the last one bee on the ground. Suddenly, the bees retreated back toward the woods. A rather loud buzzing could be heard once more. Can we get a break? Jory asked himself, preparing for another fight. Out of the woods flew the five remaining bees as though in procession, followed by several of what appeared to be flying... bits of honeycomb? Upon closer inspection, they appeared to be several bees melded together into a bit of honeycomb. Behind the newly arrived honeybees flew what was clearly the bee in charge. It was an extremely large, bee that appeared to be wearing a dress. It was significantly larger than any of the bees with lances for arms, but did not appear to be armed in the same manner. She buzzed furiously, indicating her rage at the destruction of her hive members. Jory quickly raised his wrist and pressed the side buttons on the scanner, holding it up to the new hostile. He waited a few moments as the bees began to advance toward the group more cautiously than before, then looked back at the scanner. SCAN COMPLETE Growth: 30 The trainer turned to Kenny. "This is gonna be a tough fight. Are you ready?"
  2. Jory snatched the capsule out of the air, putting it back on his belt. "Alright, it's now or never! Oliver, I need you to-" Jory began, stopping when he turned back to Oliver. His newest GAO was glowing white. It was undergoing that metamorphosis like Nefertiti! The trainer watched excitedly as the brightly glowing form changed, then began to fade. The new GAO appeared to be a larger lizard that had lost its tail, replacing it with a series of leaves protruding from every major joint on its body as well as the top of its head. The newly evolved GAO turned back toward Jory, awaiting his command. The trainer nodded and then said, "Oliver, Neffi, go in close and do as much damage as you can. Let's finish this swarm off!" The pair nodded and prepared for the oncoming swarm.
  3. Hey guys, just wanted to give out some hot tips for this week's matchup against Volcanic: 1) Stick with Rock types for your offensive mons. They have access to all the moves you could ever need to take down all of Volcanic's threats. 2) Get Stealth Rock on the field. That way, anything that doesn't get hit by Earthquake will get punished for switching in. 3) Try something unexpected. Because we're locked into 3 types, our teams are predictable. Therefore, be unpredictable. Figured I'd try my hand at being helpful ^^;
  4. Yeah, I think Sonny is just chillin and taking care of whatever it is Alina needed him to cause he's whipped
  5. The swarm of bees continued on their attack pattern, spurred on by the arrival of their reinforcements. They buzzed menacingly and brandished their spearlike appendages at the two trainers. Jory looked at Kenny and nodded, then barked, "Now!" The GAOs began their defense in earnest, with the back line beginning to use attacks on the bees as Oliver and Ryu rushed in. Neffi and Emma were a dynamic duo, firing poisonous barbs and electricity at the swarm. Sampson opened his mouth and began to use his embers attack. Then, Eve's paw began to glow. Sampson's attack grew hotter and wider, causing a rise in temperature that even Jory could feel. The salvo intercepted the swarm, wreaking havoc in the bees' ranks. Sampson's attack hit a group of four bees. Two caught the brunt of the attack and fell to the ground, their blackened forms twitching briefly before becoming still. The other two were slightly charred, and one's wing was singed, but were still flying with the swarm. Neffi and Emma's attack landed squarely on a trio of the insectoid GAOs, causing them to drop to the ground twitching and filled with small barbs. The remainder of the swarm kept on coming, though, and were eventually intercepted by Oliver and Ryu. The small blue GAO's fist began to glow and he took off like a bullet, beginning to dish out a flurry of blows to a single hostile while the rest continued onward. Oliver leapt and soared through the air, landing with his feet on the back of a bee. The force of the drop caused the foe to lay still on the ground, unable to continue flying or fighting. The rest of the swarm approached the line of trainers and GAOs rapidly after passing by the melee combatants. All of their lancelike arms began to glow white, and they began to stab at the air furiously as they flew into the cadets' ranks. Kenny, Sampson and Eve A group of six made a beeline for Eve, intending to each strike a couple of times as they flew over the helpless looking GAO. However, Sampson jumped into their path, taking the majority of the hits from the bees. They continued past the group toward the treeline, regrouping with the rest of the swarm and preparing to circle back for another assault. Sampson fell to the ground, whinnying in pain as blood began to drip from the attacks. Jory turned, his mouth agape in horror as he saw his friend in agony. "Return Sampson to his capsule and give your GAOs commands!" he shouted to Kenny, lobbing the capsule toward the other trainer. Jory, Nefertiti, and Emma The remainder of the swarm flew directly at Jory, Neffi, and Emma, attempting to skewer them on their appendages. Suddenly, Neffi jumped in front of her trainer and stood defiantly in front of the swarm. "Nido!" she barked, standing her ground and seeming to brace herself. A green shimmer appeared in the air around the trio. Every bee who tried to attack them seemed to bounce off of the mystical barrier. They all flew on, regrouping with the other half of the swarm and circling back for another attack. Jory smiled at Neffi. The GAO looked spent and the barrier fell. Once it did, Neffi looked noticeably better. "Let's not overuse that," Jory said quietly. "You don't look like you could pull another one of those off even if you had to."
  6. This fight is designed to be medium to medium-high intensity. Stratos, please feel free to take control of the swarm of Beedrill as you see fit if you feel that I am not doing that difficulty justice.
  7. I've been trying hard lately to get back into this RP. It was initially one of my favorites and I ended up slacking on it, but I'm glad to be back as a contributing member.
  8. Jory grinned at the sight of Kenny approaching through the woods. He waved at his comrade, then waited for the other young man to approach. "Oh, hey, Jory! So how's your journey in this forest been?" he asked. "It's been awesome! Kenny, I'd like you to meet my newest friend, Oliver," Jory replied, gesturing to the lizardlike GAO near him. The green reptile crossed his arms and looked Kenny up and down, seeming to stop to focus on the GAO on Kenny's shoulder. Jory watched the exchange, then smiled at Oliver and Kenny. "So, Kenny, who's the latest addition to your team?" he asked. IT'S SO FLUFFY AND ADORABLE! he thought to himself, not keen on having his squadmate pick over his choice of words. Suddenly, Oliver and Neffi picked their heads up and glanced nervously into the woods. Jory followed their gaze, then looked toward Kenny. "I don't like this. Something's not right..." he said quietly, signaling his GAOs to back away from the trees. In the ensuing silence, a faint, constant sound could be heard. No... Jory thought. The sound became louder. It almost sounded like... Buzzing? Tell me they don't exist. Please, for the love of all that is right, please tell me there is no such thing as- But Jory never got a chance to finish the thought. The buzzing grew loud enough that it would have been difficult for Jory and Kenny to hear one another. Suddenly, from the trees, burst the single most terrifying thing Jory had ever seen in his life. This wasn't just an ordinary bee. It was well over three feet long and HOLY SHIT WERE THOSE LANCES ON THE ENDS OF ITS ARMS??? Even worse, more of them seemed to be coming out of the trees behind it. Before he even had time to react, there were nearly twenty of the monstrosities flying toward the group. "FUCK!" the trainer shouted. "Sampson, Neffi, Oliver, on me! Let's go, move it!" I have to stay calm, he thought to himself as his team rallied around him, ready for battle. This time there's no Surge around to bail me out. This is my fight. He looked over at Kenny. No, our fight. "Kenny, move your ass! Get over here and establish defensive formations! Sampson, use your embers attack to thin them out! Neffi, do the same with your stingers! And Oliver... uh..." he trailed off, pausing as Neffi and Sampson began to attack the horde. Three of the giant bees were taken down in the initial salvo, while the rest veered off to one side, and began to circle back in for another attack. Oliver stood in front of Jory, impressed by his command of the other two creatures, but sorely disappointed in his own lack of participation. After getting beaten so badly by the blue one, he needed to impress his new friends. He gestured toward the Beedrills, then pounded a closed fist into his other hand. "You want to fight them? They have a huge advantage over you, Oliver!" Jory said concernedly. He looked toward the oncoming horde again. "Sampson, Neffi, keep up the suppressing fire!" The two GAOs obeyed, once again deterring the swarm and taking down another bee. "You know what, fine! We won't be able to hold out like this forever. Do your thing, Oliver, but be careful!" he advised. Oliver nodded and began running toward the swarm, darting between the embers and poisonous barbs coming from his teammates. Suddenly, he jumped high in the air, flipping several times and landing hard on top of one of the bees. He brought it to the ground and began to viciously beat its head with his tail as the bee flailed helplessly on the ground while the remainder of the swarm circled back around for another attack. More buzzing was heard, and another four bees came out of the forest and joined the swarm. Jory simply stood still, watching the gecko beat the bee's head to an ichorous pulp. "Alright guys, same thing next time! Kenny, we need your help to beat these guys. If we take too long, they'll overwhelm us with numbers!" --------------------------------- Sampson (LV. 23)- Ember Neffi (LV. 21)- Poison Sting Oliver (LV. 19)- Acrobatics, Pound
  9. Dru finally reached the other side of the undead horde. He was breathing heavily as he turned around, grinning at the trail of shattered bones he'd left behind him on his way toward the hill with the singular cherry blossom. It had been far too long since the rest of the heroes left to face the Death Knight, and the sorcerer believed that he could help if he was truly needed. As he crested the hill, however, he was brought to his knees by the Earth's shrieking. It was an outcry unlike any he had heard before. It was a gut-wrenching, blood-curdling scream of pure, abject grief. He finally spotted Nero and approached him at a run. "Quickly, Spellblade, tell me what has happened here. Is my assistance required?"
  10. I'm posting from the car on the way to a water park. I should have time to post tn. Just waiting on confirmation from Ethic and anyone else who wants in. Keep in mind that the size of the next encounter is subject to adjustment based on the number of people involved.
  11. I had planned to do a second part of my post that should provide a nice chunk of XP. If anyone would like to participate, just post that you found me before I post again.
  12. Roland turned around as he heard the beast charge away. He began to run after it, the pair darting ahead parallel to the fallen pillar. The ranger spied a crack ahead where the pillar had broken when it fell. He wore determined expression as he reached the crack, his cloak billowing behind him as he began to scale the rubble, losing some ground on the beast but gaining a height advantage. He began to sprint on top of the pillar, running after the large, angry beast. He could only hope that Alleria, Crag, Megaira, Rhea, and Nash could hold off their fearsome foe until Roland was able to bring down the horror before them.
  13. Jory and Neffi walked slowly through the forest, amazed at area's natural beauty. He heard rustling behind him and turned quickly, causing his GAO to start in alarm. He saw a green blur darting through the underbrush, always hovering on the edge of his peripheral vision. It didn't seem to want to get any closer to the pair. Maybe it's another GAO! The thought caused him to grin in anticipation. Since the beginning of training, Jory had fantasized about the possibility of using more than two of the creatures in a battle. The strategic potential was incredible. With three GAOs on the field, it was possible for them to cover each others' weaknesses more effectively. If he captured another, he would finally be able to test his theories. However, he knew Neffi would never be able to catch up to whatever that was. "Let's keep moving," he said quietly. The Nidorina nodded her assent. She knew her trainer had something in mind. The pair continued on their way for another ten minutes. They had kept on seeing flashes of movement in the canopy, and occasional flights of birds gave their follower away. Finally, they came to a clearing. Jory walked out to the middle, followed immediately by Nefertiti. Then, he turned toward the forest. He scanned the treeline, looking for any sign of their pursuer. Finally, a small green form leapt from a tree and landed roughly twenty feet from Jory and Neffi. Now that it was closer, it was much easier to make out its appearance. It seemed to be a green lizard or gecko of some sort that was walking upright. Its bright yellow eyes shone with intelligence and intense curiosity. Jory was quivering with excitement. He grinned wildly at the GAO and then at Neffi. This is what I've been waiting for! "Hey, you! I'll make you a deal! If we beat you in a battle, you come with us. How does that sound?" "Tree," it said resolutely, taking up an aggressive stance. Neffi responded in kind, getting down on all fours and growling at her opponent. Neffi looked back at Jory and nodded. She was ready. "Alright, Neffi, start it off with your poison spine attack!" Jory ordered. His GAO responded instantly, opening her mouth wide and firing a stream of small poisonous stingers at the gecko. As the needles began their flight, the smaller GAO's eye shone brightly for a moment. IT waited until the attack had neared it, then immediately darted out of the way. It bounded off a tree and flew toward Neffi, winding its tail up for a striking attack. "Neffi, clamp onto its tail with your teeth and throw it to the ground!" the trainer shouted. Nefertiti leapt toward her foe, latching onto its bulbous green tail in midair. Her momentum carried the pair forward, falling to the ground in a tumbling heap of flurrying claws, hands, and various other appendages. "Now give it a final couple of kicks and hold it down!" Jory said excitedly. The larger GAO easily delivered her final couple of blows, then pinned the smaller gecko-like GAO to the ground. The small green GAO nodded slowly, closing its eyes. "Tree..." it said slowly. Jory took out one of the newer capsules and touched the button to the creature's head. It disappeared in a flash of light. Then, the ball shook several times before coming to rest in Jory's hand. "We... We did it!" Jory shouted happily. "We did it!" "Nido!" Neffi added, jumping in circles around her trainer. Jory pressed the button, releasing the new GAO. It looked up at him expectantly. "I wonder what I should call you. Are you a male?" The gecko nodded, seemingly grinning bemusedly. "Then it's settled. You'll be Oliver." The new GAO nodded his head once more. "Tree!" he said excitedly. Jory put away his ball and took out Sampson's, releasing the fiery steed from confinement. Sampson whinnied, looking down at the new addition to the team. He simply snorted and turned away from Oliver, who in turn crossed his arms and looked away from Sampson. "Great..." Jory muttered as he raised his wrist, using the Scanner to check his new GAO's status. He smiled lightly and lowered his wrist. "You'll walk with me for now," he explained. "Let's go explore a little bit more before we head back to base." Jory smiled at his GAOs. This was going to be interesting. It was time to see just what the three GAOs could do together. ------------------------------------ Nefertiti (Nidorina, F)- Level 21 Sampson (Ponyta, M)- Level 23 Oliver (Treecko, M)- Level 19
  14. For now I'll put filler levels in my post, but I need help deciding what levels my GAOs are after Ch. 1. They were both level 17 before the Articuno thing happened. Levels being used currently: Neffi- 21 Sampson- 23 And the wild Treecko is level 19 at capture. IS all this good, Stratos?
  15. Jory grabbed his capsules and began to walk toward the gate. Once he got outside, he released Neffi from her ball. The GAO looked up at her trainer questioningly. She knew that he'd been shaken up since the battle with the giant bird. The two had been through a lot together. It was easy for her to tell when he needed a break, and this was one of those times. However, Jory kept toward the mission, eventually arriving at the gate. "Did I miss anything?" he asked jokingly, smiling at the other recruits as he walked over to them.
  16. I had thought that I'd posted Sonny's stuff, but oh well. Sonny Attributes: Accuracy- 2 Agility- 6 Strength- 5 (Plus Berserker Strength [+3]) Magic: Illusion- Grand Illusions, Unnoticeability, Muffles Offensive- Enhancement Magic master, not so good at the ranged stuff. Team: Rayleigh (Sawsbuck, M) Maverick (Staraptor, M) Toru (Snorlax, M) Chess (Zangvile, F)- For this I will need an art. Grass can you pretty please? Zangvile Details: As you can see, Sonny is a close-up, in-your-face kind of fighter, hence his use of a bastard sword. His Pokemon team, which now includes a fusion Pokemon, is designed to reflect that. Also, the type thing for Normal should be some kind of HP or Attack enhancement. Attack- attacks create shockwaves on impact, +2 attack HP- super-effective hits become neutral hits, +2 HP
  17. Jory looked around, surprised that no one else had raised their hands yet. He put his in the air and awaited a response from his CO.
  18. Roland cut immediately to the right, adroitly avoiding the palm and changing direction so that the beast would be running toward another pillar. He nocked another arrow on the run and turned, moving a bit more slowly to fire another shot toward the beast's face. He did not pause to see whether he hit his mark or not, tucking his head and sprinting for the pillar.
  19. Sonny Magic: Illusion and Offensive Magic Type Boost: Normal Combat Style: Agility 3, Strength 2, uses a sword Skills Mastered: Large Illusions, Invisibility, Blast Magic (essentially concussive blasts or shockwaves)
  20. Roland tucked forward into a roll from his dive, moving safely out of the way of the falling mass of stone. His attention shifted immediately to the beast in front of him. It was far and away the most dangerous looking creature he had ever encountered. Its stench was horrid, and it seemed to be a bevy of abominations all rolled into one. The ranger immediately began to identify its weaknesses. Its eyes seemed to be the best target for him, as his arrows would only burn to a crisp in the creatures gullet. "Aim for the eyes and nostrils. And whatever you do, do not let it grab hold of you!" he shouted. With that, he started running toward another pillar. He reached back and grabbed an arrow from his quiver, deftly brought it to the bowstring, and fired it at the creature's face. He then put his head down and sprinted for the pillar, hoping to have gotten the beast's attention.
