  1. Thanks! Do you want me to send a trade request or are you sending one? My username on online play is CrystalXGlaceon
  2. Hi everyone! So I'm trying to complete the Pokedex on my Pokemon Reborn playthrough, and I'm having trouble breeding a Azurill. I was wondering if someone could trade me one? I don't mind trading anything for it, I'm just trying to complete the Pokedex.
  3. Hi guys, sorry if I'm ending this thread on a sour note, but I'm not in the best mood to right fanfictions right now. I'm starting to get annoyed of writing down everything that happens on my game and posting it on the internet, it's just becoming more of a chore to me, and I don't have the patience for it. Sorry everyone, I hope you understand.
  4. Chapter 1 Part 5: Butterflies of Fate Before Mocha and friends headed off to the train station, they got a few more things done in Gearen. They took care of a request at Chrisola Hotel which involved taking care of some noise in the basement, which came from a Ludicolo named Rorim B partying with some Oricorio, after battling him, he asks Mocha to find new members for his dance troupe. Mocha does so and sorts out the noise that been plaguing the hotel. The team head to Gearen Lab, Duke stops as he hears a voice call to him. ???: Pssst! Hey, you're Duke, from Mocha's team, right? Duke: Yup, the one and only. An Alolan Grimer appears, Duke notices that the Grimer looks like Venam's. Alo Grimer: Meet Miss Venam at the sewers, 2 O Clock, don't be late. Duke watches as the Grimer sinks into a city drain. Duke: Venam? But what would she want with me? The gang heads over to Gearen Lab, Cyra finds someone working on a Fangame on the Johto region and asks if she could try it out. Mocha takes a good look around Gearen Lab. ???: Excuse me! Could you come over here please? Mocha hears a voice calling over to her, she goes over to the voice to see a ranger Breloom. Ranger: You're Mocha, right? Mocha: Uhh, yeah. The Breloom hands Mocha a dark blue Pocket Ring. Mocha: This ring looks like it has a Pokemon in it. Ranger: This ring is given to me by Jan, he wanted to give you a partner from his teammate's offspring, She's quite different from her original species! Mocha inserts the ring into her watch and places it into Duke's spot, sending him into the PC section. A icon of a Feebas appears in the party. She sends it out, revealing a purple Feebas with pink and light purple markings. Feebas: Huh. Looks like I'm here now. Mocha: So, you're the Pokemon sent to me by Jan, huh? Feebas: Yeah, I guess you could say that. Mocha: Well, do you have a name? Phoebe: Phoebe, the name's Phoebe. Mocha: Glad to have you on board, Phoebe! Mocha and co, along with their new teammate, Phoebe, arrive to the train station. Duke stays behind. Mocha: Wait, you're staying in Gearen? Duke: Yeah, sorry Mocha, I'm sure Goldenwood sounds like a lovely place, but I have something I need to do elsewhere, it's pretty important, you understand, right? Mocha: Well, if it's important to you, go ahead. We'll see you later, Duke. After the team says goodbye to Duke, they run into a familiar face. Tesla: Oh, Mocha! We meet again. How are you feeling? Are you okay? Mocha: I'm doing great! I got a lot of teammates and I got my first badge! Tesla: Good. You're strong. I admire that strength. Mocha: Oh! Did you by any chance find my family in the shipwreck? Tesla: Sorry, Mocha, I'm afraid I didn't. But please, do not give up hope. Even in the most powerful pit of despair, we must press on. Anyway, if you're here, that must mean you're going to Goldenwood Forest? In that case, please wait here just one moment. She heads over to the ticket paying area, after having a small chat to the clerk at the desk, she comes back. Tesla: Teehee, everything's taken care of, Mocha. I'm quite a regular customer here, so I told them you were my friend and now they've given you a lifetime pass! Mocha was simply lost for words for this Talonflame's generosity and kind-heartedness. Mocha: I-I don't know what to say... Tesla: Ah... I've made you speechless? Teehee, I'm only teasing. Please, take these. She hands Mocha some Potions. Tesla: Goldenwood Forest is a place where beginner trainers gather. Your partners may become wounded while training there, but these will patch them right up. I'm going back to my room at the Chrisola Hotel. If you need a place to stay, I'd be more than glad to help you out again. As Tesla leaves, Mocha and friends board the train, on the trip there, Mocha's teammates stare at her with surprise and disbelief. Mocha: Why are you guys looking at me like that? Sakura: Well, it's just, we're surprised, that's all. Ron: Yeah, you never told us that you were friends with Tesla, one of the Elite 8! Mocha: Wait a minute! Tesla is one of the Elite 8?! Ron: Oops, I guess she never told you, did she? Kiwi: But still, pretty impressive to befriend someone like her! How did you you two meet? Mocha: Well... Mocha told her teammates about what happened on the S.S Oceana, telling them about Team Xen invading the ship, her mother and sister and her rescue. She figured she might as well tell them right now, she could use all the help she could get to find her family. Sakura: Well, I suppose that does make sense, I did hear about the sinking of the S.S Oceana on the news. I do hope your family is alright, Mocha. Ron: Oh, I'm pretty sure I saw Tesla dropping you off at the pier, sorry I didn't tell you that earlier. Kiwi: Well, after hearing all this, we gotta stick with you now. Don't worry, no matter what happens, Mocha, I'm gonna stick with you to the very end! Ron: You're helping me improve my confidence, of course I'm helping you in this! Sakura: We're with you all the way, Mocha! Everyone else agrees, Mocha smiles at their support. Mocha: Thank you, everyone. The train conductor announces that the train has stopped at Route 1, the group steps out of the train and meets Melia. Melia: So, you decided to accompany me after all? You quite a bit of time to get here. I was almost running out of hope! Mocha: Sorry, I had some stuff to do before I got here. Hope you can understand. Melia: It's fine! I took some time out of my day to fix the generator in the sewers and take some pictures for my album, so you're not the only one. Anywho, Goldenwood Forest is right up ahead. I'll meet you inside! As Melia enters the forest, Mocha sends out Casper. Casper: Alright, I'm out, now what do yo- Casper stops as he takes a look around at his surroundings, golden trees, bright yellow grass, Casper just realized where he is. Casper: (Oh no, nonononononononoNO!) Mocha, unaware of Casper's worrying, gathers everyone around and talks to them. Mocha: Alright, guys. We're here to train up and assist Melia with what she tasked to do, let's try our best! The group enter Goldenwood Forest, finding Melia standing in front of the huge golden forest. Melia: Well, this is it, Mocha. This is Goldenwood Forest. It looks more like a park now, rather than a forest. Regardless, there is work to be done. Are you ready? Mocha: Of course. Melia: All right then. Let's get started! The group feed some Vivillion, help a fisherman catch a Magikarp, tend to some flowers, feed the Finneon, and help a child get down a tree. They run into a Vivillion with light blue wings who flutter around them. Melia watches Mocha train her team for a bit. While training, Mocha protects Phoebe from a wild Poochyena and evolves into a Raboot. Melia: Congrats, Mocha! You evolved! Mocha smiles at Melia. Meanwhile, near a small river in Goldenwood, Casper, is constantly hiding from other Pokemon. Alucard watches the Shuppet nervously look around. Casper: Gah, why did that blasted Mocha bring me here of all places? If someone from Goldenwood Town finds me with these freaks, I'll be in deep shit! Alucard: You seem to be pretty tense, mind asking why? Casper: Because I've been exiled, duh! If I'm spotted anywhere in Goldenwood or Goldenleaf Town, they'll punish me, o-or even worse, kill me! Alucard: (Can ghosts even die?) I see, I did hear from Ren that this 'Goldenleaf Town' is very xenophobic, why is that? Casper: W-why would I tell you freaks? You don't deserve a reason! ???: Miss Zeppelin! Catch me, catch me! A young voice calls out from the other side of the river, the duo turn to see a Mimikyu and a Drifblim, Casper yelps. Casper: I-I can't let them see me! I'm outta here! Casper scurries off. Alucard stands and watches the event unfold. Zeppelin: *sigh* Alright, come here, dear. The Drifblim floats over and picks up the Mimikyu, carrying it over the river. Mimikyu: Thank you~ ???: Zeppelin? Have you finally found that naughty Mimikyu? A Dusclops wearing a dress and a tiara comes in. Dusclops: Honestly, now, can't you behave and stay home, Peekaboo? Oh, and look... You've gone and bothered some foreigner, have you? Alucard: It was no bother at all, ma'am. Dusclops: No bother you say? Then you must have an incredible amount of patience. Or perhaps somehow you're not being completely honest? Not that it matters... That's something I, and frankly the whole of Goldenleaf Town can use. Nevertheless, you and your friend are involved in this grand scheme, hm? Yes, dear. I see you over there hiding behind that tree. Casper: (HOW DID SHE SEE ME?!) Dusclops: Oh, you're the one that was exiled from Goldenwood and Goldenleaf, are you? Hm, I won't tell anyone that you're here, just don't cause any trouble, okay? Casper: (Oh, thank Arceus...) Dusclops: Well, we'll be off now. Come, my children. The Mimikyu waves goodbye to Alucard. Peekaboo: Bye, weirdo! Dusclops: Peekaboo! I told you not to use that sort of language to foreigners! Come on. The family of ghosts head east. Alucard: Guess not everyone in your little town is xenophobic, are they? Casper: That Nastasia... For some odd reason, she doesn't blame you filthy outsiders for what happened. I'll never for the life of me understand why she would forgive you freaks, but she does take good care of the town. She is the Goldenleaf Gym Leader, after all. Alucard: So we might be up against her when we get there. I wonder how it'll turn out? Casper: Heh, there's no way you'll beat Nastasia, there's a reason she's considered Goldenleaf Town's leader. She'll send you outsiders packing! Alucard stares at Casper, it seems like he's starting to get him to converse with him, but he isn't exactly friends with him yet. At least he's making progress. Alucard and Casper notice Melia and Mocha heading up to a cavern. Melia: Looks like we're finally here. We've successfully made it to our destination. Goldenwood Cave is just up ahead. Meet me inside, okay? Melia goes inside the cave. Mocha and the rest of the team follows. Melia: Welcome to Goldenwood Cave, Mocha. This... Ohoh, this is where things get interesting. You've heard that Goldenwood Forest is a training ground for newbies, correct? Well, this is where everyone gathers to train to become stronger. Pokemon usually come here with friends. So you won't find any Pokemon here by themselves. That's fine, though, because you have me! We'll team up and take this cave by storm! The gang got to work, taking out the teams one by one. Phoebe slowly catches up with the team. Melia: Looks like we've finally made it. Is this what my father wanted me to look at? I know I'm not strong enough to do more jarring tasks, but this is a little insulting. *sigh* No use complaining about it! Let's just get to work and finish this up. We should take pictures of it in it's original state just in case it becomes damaged. Melia gets a camera out of her briefcase, taking a few pictures of the inscription on the wall. Melia: Hehe, that's enough picture taking for now. Mocha: So, Jenner asked you to check on some inscription on the wall? Melia: Yeah, it's kinda strange why he would ask me to do something like that. Usually I just study the behavior of Pokemon native to the area and stuff like that. I mean, the writing here is practically illegible. It's not even the interesting kind of illegible. Just- The moment Melia touches the inscription, the ground shakes and the wall crumbles, leaving a hole in it's place. Melia: W-wait, I just touched the wall! Why did the ground shake? And why did it open this hole in the wall? Cyra: Damn, that must've been one old wall if it was able to crumble by the slightest touch. Melia: Ah well! This was worth it! We found a secret passageway deep within the depths of Goldenwood Cave! This is so... great! Well, c'mon! We can't let a discovery like this slip through our fingers! Melia goes inside the hole in the wall, full of excitement for whatever is inside. The gang follow in after, finding a grove with a Arceus statue and Melia setting down a picnic blanket. Melia: Surprise, everyone! Isn't this place really beautiful? This place isn't on a map or anything! It's possible we discovered a completely new area! This region is less than a century old, so there very well may be places we haven't discovered. I think we accomplished a lot today. So the least we could do is celebrate! A small picnic lunch should be amazing in a quiet and peaceful place like this. Mocha and Melia's team sit down and eat together, chatting with each other and sharing their experiences. The light blue winged Vivillion watch over them. Melia: Today has been one hundred percent awesome. Not only did my experiment work, but I saw you and Venam have a incredible battle! And we also found this place. I will always cherish this memory. Mocha: I will certainly cherish this moment too! It was lovely hanging out with you, Melia. Melia: ...! That makes me so happy, Mocha. I'm glad I could get your mind off things. Hey, Mocha, did you notice that statue of Arceus looming behind us? I have to wonder why that statue's hidden all the way back here. Melia looks around, seeing the Vivillion surround them. Kiwi: These Vivillion, they look like the one we saw while doing all that stuff, right? Melia: I don't know if you guys know, but they say Vivillion with light blue wings gather when something momentous is about to happen. They're called the "Butterflies of Fate". Heheh... A day like this one only comes once a year. A day where you make another life-long friend. She turns to Mocha, holding her paws. Melia: That special friend is you, Mocha. Thank you for coming with me. You've made this day a memorable one. Mocha: Melia... Melia's warm smile falters to a frown. Melia: This will be my last memory on Floria Island. Mocha: What? Why? Melia: Remember that secret I mentioned back in East Gearen? Well, the day after tomorrow I leave for Grand Dream City. Where I am to become the Normal-Type Gym Leader. Mocha: You're going to become a Gym Leader? That's amazing! Melia: Yeah, sorry for not telling you guys before. I was just-- Anyway, I'm going alone. Ren will still be working with my father, and Venam will be doing her usual Leader duties. I'm being thrown into a city I don't know much about. I'm pretty scared. Melia pauses for a moment, then asks Mocha, Melia: Hey, Mocha... Do you have anywhere to go after this? If you're left with nothing to do... Would you come with me? Mocha: I-isn't that a bit much to ask someone you just met? Melia: Haha... Yeah, sorry, I don't know what I was thinking. The two pause for a moment. Mocha gets up. Mocha: Well, if you're going to be leaving soon, let's make this moment even more memorable, let's battle, Melia! Melia: Oh, a battle? Mocha: You're gonna be a Gym Leader, right? You're gonna all the training you'll get. So, what do you say? Melia: Alright, lets do it! Everyone gets to their leader's sides and stand from each side of the statue. Melia: Mocha, I had a great time today, but this is different. Even though I do love to research things, battling is where my true passion is. You were able to defeat Venam, but I've beaten her too. This battle will decide which one of us is the strongest. So don't hold back, okay? Hehe. Let's go! One of Melia's partners, a shiny Buneary, comes forward. Casper comes in, he lands a Will-O-Wisp on her and smacks it a few times with Knock Off, defeating it. A Stufful, also shiny, comes next, Alucard comes in. The Stufful hits hard with Tackle and Alucard deals some damage with Gust, he switches out for Casper and Casper gets beat by a Brutal Swing, Phoebe comes in and outspeeds using Dazzling Gleam twice, knocking it out. Wooloo comes next, Ron comes in, he knocks it down with two Sonic Booms and one Quick Attack. Melia comes up, Mocha comes in. It was a even match with Melia using Ancient Power and Mocha using Poison Sweep, Melia is taken out by 3 Poison Sweep. Melia slowly gets up. Melia: I see, so that's how it goes... Looks like I've got a long way to go. Mocha: You were great, your team really packs a punch, I'm sure you'll get better over time. Melia: Thanks, I'll take this battle as a lesson. Thank you for helping me out today. Melia goes to pick up the briefcase. Melia: There, now that all of that is cleaned up... Hey, can you guys help me fold this blanket? The group start cleaning up their picnic, until they hear a loud boom. Melia: W-What in the world was that?! Cyra: Dunno, it sounded like it came from Goldenwood Forest. Melia: ...Forget the blanket. We have to go back to Goldenwood Forest immediately! Melia sends her weakened team back to her PW and hurries off, Mocha and friend follows after, until they see a Absol leap above the entrance of the Grove. It stares at the group. Absol: ... Mocha: ... Absol: ...Beware. After giving out that haunting message, the Absol leaves. Sakura: Why do I suddenly have a bad feeling about this? Mocha: ...We need to go, come on! The gang rush into the cave, quickly making their way to Goldenwood Forest. ------------- Team Rating
  5. Chapter 1 Part 4: Poisonous Punk Venam Mocha and friends decide to train up in Chrisola Hotel against the Audino at the Rooftop, as it is much quicker to get to Level 15 capping, meanwhile on the floor below, Duke has his eyes glued to a game of Voltorb Flip, trying his best not to mess up. He ends up hitting a Voltorb tile, groaning in frustration. Duke: Damn it! This game is so infuriating! ...Yet so addicting at the same time! Alucard: What are you doing? I thought Mocha asked us to train. Duke: W- Uhh... I am training! I'm uhhh... Training my reflexes! Y-yeah! Alucard: Uh huh. Duke: Okay, look. I'll get back to training, alright? See? I'm stepping off the game board. Alucard: You said this game is addicting, right? Duke: Uh, yeah. Alucard: Let me give it a try. Duke moves out of the way and watches Alucard figure out how the game works. After a few practice runs and a few slip ups, he blazes through the levels, gaining plenty of Casino Coins. Duke: What?! How are you so good at this? I can't even get past Level 2! Alucard: Well, when your a Noibat trying to survive the harshness of the sewers, you have to think and calculate your plans through. One small mishap could lead to... Alucard clicks on a Voltorb tile, losing the coins for his round. A Helioptile hears them, she walks over to the game board, watching the two talk. Duke: Whoa... Never knew how tough it is for you. Alucard: Yeah, well, at least Venam's gang is there to back me up. Helioptile: Hey, you guys are pretty good at this. She climbs up the Voltorb Flip table, observing the number of coins rise on Alucard's game. Duke: Yeah, kinda surprised me, too. I didn't expect Alucard to be such a natural at this sorta stuff, is that right, pal? Alucard: Uh huh, that's lovely, Duke. Helioptile: So, you guys got a someone with a Pocket Watch? Duke: Yeah, her name is Mocha. Helioptile: 'kay, how many badges has she got? Duke: Zero, she's training up to challenge Venam now. Helioptile: ... Alright, show me where she is. Duke: Okay, I think she's challenging someone in Magnolia Library. Come on, Alucard, we're leaving. ...Alucard? Alucard didn't even listen, he was too focused on his game of Voltorb Flip to even notice. Duke: Ugghhh! Come on, Alucard! Don't make me have to drag you out! Later... Mocha: Ember! Mocha finishes off Ren's Cacnea with a Ember. After training up against the Audino she figured she may as well pay Ren a visit for some last minute training with the team. Ren: Well, I guess you can't win them all, come back, buddy. Ren calls the Cacnea back, he smiles at Mocha. Ren: You've certainly gotten stronger, Mocha. Mocha: Thanks for the training, Ren. Ren: You've probably wasted enough time here, Venam's probably getting impatient. Mocha: Yeah, maybe your right. As soon as Mocha and co. set foot outside of the library, she runs into Duke and Alucard. Sakura: So, did you guys get some training done? Duke: Well, uh... No. But we did find a new team member! Why don't you come over here, Cyra! Cyra, the Helioptile that Duke met in the hotel, heads over to Mocha. Cyra: Sup, names Cyra. So, your Mocha, yeah? The gal going up against Venam? Mocha: Yeah, we just finished training, so we were just on our way to challenge her. Cyra: ... You got a Pocket Ring? Mocha: Yeah, I've got plenty of them. Cyra: Throw one at me. Mocha gets a PR out and throws it at Cyra, she inserts the ring into her watch. Cyra: Looking forward to working with ya. The gang make their way to Venam's gym. Mocha gets caught up by Jan using the Gym Guide. She takes on the Venam's friends from the sewer, as well as the gym's puzzle, which Cyra helped out with, was sorting poisonous substances to make a certain colour. After some consideration, Mocha decides the team to go up against Venam will be herself, Casper, Kiwi, Cyra, Ron and Alucard. Everyone agreed, well, all except for Casper. Casper: No! The training was enough, I am not fighting with you outsiders! Mocha: ... Alright, Casper, what's the matter? You've been like this ever since we caught you. Casper: Oh, you wanna know why? I was exiled from my town because I befriended an outsider. I searched EVERYWHERE for a place to call home and I found NOTHING! That was until I found that room in Emerald Building, I was nice and cozy in my brand new home, I thought life was going to be easy for me. But guess who took me away from that easy life? That's right, it's you, genius! Mocha stayed silent, while she never understood why a town would exile someone for befriending someone outside their town, she never knew she was taking a Pokemon straight out of it's new home. She figured it may as well be time to let Casper go. Mocha sighs and walks over to the Shuppet. Mocha: Casper, I'm very sorry about taking you away from your home. Look, if it makes you feel better, you can go back to your place, you don't even have to battle Venam with us. Casper looks at the Scorbunny, then lets out a "hmph!" and floats off. Kiwi: Hey, are you sure want to do this? Mocha: I may want to win the Aevium League, but I don't my partners to be unhappy. I'm supposed to be a leader to you guys, if I can't deal with the problems of my teammates, who will? Casper stops and hears this on the way out. He's never heard another outsider say something so considerate before, he's always thought of the outsiders of his town to be deceitful, horrible Pokemon, but never as kind and considerate as Mocha. He heads back to the team, going up to Mocha. Mocha: Casper? Casper: ...Fine ...I'll battle with you. Mocha was surprised at Casper's sudden change of heart. It sounded as if he actually wants to work with Mocha now. Mocha: Casper, you don't have to do this... Casper: Well I am. But after this battle, I'm going home. Mocha smiles, she calls everyone back into the PW and enters Venam's battle field. Venam: Welcome to my Gym! Like what you see? See, I'm usually the first Gym Leader new challengers like you face... But newer challenger just never know how to deal with my Poison-type team. So when you were able to fight of those Trubbish and Garbodor like that, I was very impressed. Cyra comes out of Mocha's PW, Cyra glares at Venam, and Venam glares back. It was a intense staring contest between the two reptiles. Mocha breaks the silence. Mocha: Are... we going to battle now? Venam: Oh, we will. I'm just wondering why the hell you brought Cyra here. Cyra: Oh I'm here for one reason, to see your precious ego get taken down a notch. Venam: Yeah, like you can do anything to me, one Bulldoze from me will take you out instantly. Cyra: Yeah, I know. So, we gonna bring it or what? Mocha: H-hey, Cyra. Take it easy, will you? ???: H-hey, no need to push! I'm going! Ren's voice is heard from the left side of the room, Melia and Ren enter the room from the sidelines. They find their place and sit down. Mocha: Ren! Melia! Ren: Alright, made it just in time! Melia: Mocha's taking on the Gym challenge? That's... That's so cool! Go get em, Mocha! Venam: Hey! Whose side are you on?! Melia: Sorry, Venam, but I love to root for the underdogs! Mocha smiles at Melia's cheers, Mocha wasn't so sure she could win the fight with Venam and Cyra at each other's throats, but seeing the Togepi root for her and her team was enough to give her the determination to win this fight, Venam shrugs off Melia's response. Venam: Ah, whatever. Looks like we got an audience. Hope you don't get performance anxiety! I won't be kind, so you better not be either! I, Venam, Gym Leader of East Gearen City will end your career before it even starts! Come on out, Devito! As the battle begins, Venam sends out the Trubbish she caught at the sewer. Mocha sends Kiwi out. While Kiwi did end up getting poisoned, she took out the Trubbish with two bites. Venam sends out an Alolan Grimer next, Kiwi takes it out with 3 Quick Attacks. Venam sends out Whirlipede next, Alucard comes in. Alucard was able to take a hit from it and defeat it with two Gusts. Venam: Not bad, you took out half my team! Now let's see you beat me. Venam heads onto the battlefield, Ron comes in to land two Sonic Booms on the Seviper, he gets her close to fainting, but ends up fainting to Venam. Casper comes in to get rid of her last bit of HP with Shadow Sneak. Venam gets up and sends a Mareanie, Cyra is sent out, she uses Thundershock on Mareanie, getting in the red, but is instantly defeated by a critical hit Venoshock, Casper comes in again and ends it with Shadow Sneak. Last up is Ivysaur, Alucard is sent out to land two Gusts on it, but is taken out by Venam's Kiss, Mocha comes in to end it with ember. Venam: Shit, you got me. You're pretty good. Melia: Woohoo! Go Mocha! You were amazing! Venam: Aw... Damnit. I can't believe I lost! I've had such a good record this block too... Cyra gets up and heads over to Mocha, a small smile forms in her face. Cyra: Hey, you put up quite a fight, Mocha. Sorry I got my ass kicked by dumb luck. Mocha: It's fine! My mom always tells me that this sort of stuff happens sometime in battle, at least you gave it your all. Cyra: Hmph. Yeah, maybe your right. At least I got the chance to see Venam's ego get taken down a peg. Mocha: What's your problem with Venam, anyway? You seem so eager to see her lose. Cyra: ...I'd rather not say, not to her yet, at least. Mocha's head tilted at Cyra's response. What reason could make Cyra hate her so much that she wants Venam to lose a match? She shrugs it off and returns everyone in her team into the PW. Venam slithers over to her Alo Grimer and hands it a badge and a TM. The Grimer heads over to Mocha and hands her the items. Venam: Here, you deserve these! Mocha received the PoisonHeart Badge and TM Poison Sweep! Venam: I'm tired. I'm heading back home. There was something I was supposed to give you for winning, but... Sorry, I forgot. Oops. Anyway, I'll see you later Mocha. Mocha: Alright, we should get going too, bye Venam! Everyone leaves the battlefield, a mysterious figure sits in one of the sidelines, witnessing the whole battle. Mocha heads back outside, meeting Melia and Ren. Melia: Yay, congrats on your win, Mocha! You were absolutely fantastic~! Ren: No one's beaten Venam in quite some time, so it was refreshing to see her lose one for once. Mocha: Thanks, I'm taking on the entire league, so I still have a long way to go. Ren: That's great! I believe the next gym is in... I think Sheridan Village. Melia: Um, Ren... I think we're jumping the gun a little bit. Beating Venam is one thing, but fighting the leader of Sheridan Village is another. Ren: Yeah, you're right. I hear the Leader there is a real pleb stomper. Melia: That's why Mocha needs to do a little more training before considering challenging them. Mocha: Hmm... You're right. You said you had something to do at Goldenwood Forest, right? Mind if I join you? Melia: Of course! It's a great way to raise you and your team better, and I hear there's a lot of cool Pokemon there for you to befriend. If you do come with, I'll let you in on a little secret too. Mocha: A... secret? Melia: I'll be waiting for you on Route 1, if you decide to join me, that is. See ya, Ren. Melia heads west to the train station to Route 1. Ren: Well, I should get back to the Magnolia Library. I have research to do, after all. Ciao, Mocha. Mocha waves goodbye to Ren, before she heads to the train station, she had to take care of Casper first. She goes to Emerald Building and sends Casper out. Mocha talks to the Bayleef at the reception. Mocha: See, Casper here only scared the Pokemon out of that floor because he was so peaceful in his new home. He got kicked out from his previous one, and he's been looking for one everywhere. Bayleef: Oh dear, I knew about the rumors of ghosts being on the 3rd floor, but I didn't think it was some Pokemon trying to find a home. Mocha: So, you'll take him back, right? Bayleef: While I do feel terribly sorry for the poor thing, we can't. Some Pokemon took that room after the rumors of ghosts disappeared, I don't want to kick them out just for one Pokemon to come back in, if you want, Casper can live with the Pokemon on that floor. Casper: It's fine, miss. I don't want to barge into the life of a couple strangers, I think I'd rather stick with Mocha's team. Mocha: Casper, are you sure? Casper: Yeah, It's not like those guys are going to accept me anyway, I doubt they would accept me if they found out I was the ghost from that rumor. I think I'm better off on your team anyway. Mocha: Well, it's good to see you're starting to get along with us. Casper: Get along wi- HEY! This doesn't mean I'm pals with the rest of your outsider friends, got that?! You may be alright, but that doesn't I like the rest of your squad! Mocha giggles at Casper's response, he's not exactly friends with them yet, but he's getting there, slowly but surely. The Shuppet sighs and looks to the side. Casper: Just... let me back in, okay? Mocha lets Casper back inside the PW and heads back outside, doing some last things in Gearen before heading to Goldenwood Forest. ------------------- Team Rating
  6. Chapter 1 Part 3: Sewer Friends Mocha along with her 4 new friends (And Casper, but he prefers to stay in the PW), explore the huge city of Gearen, they go from building to building, asking about Melia's whereabouts, but they didn't have any luck of finding her. The crew gather round, trying to gather the slightest of info they found. Kiwi: No luck, fellas, the officer at the train station said they hadn't seen someone named Melia board the train station, not only that, but the station is powered down, so we can't know for sure if she's down there. Mocha: So she can't be in Route 1 yet, then. Blossom: Me and Ron asked the city folk if they seen anyone named Melia, we didn't find anything from them, I'm afraid. To the east, loud, booming music is heard, the complaints of several annoyed Pokemon are heard as well. Mocha: She has to be somewhere in Gearen, we should probably rest for a bit, think about where she might be. Sakura: Yes, I suppose that is best thing to do right now, though it is hard to think with this INFERNAL RACKET! Ron: Yeah, come to think of it, that music's really loud, it's starting to get kinda annoying. Should we go over there and tell whoever's playing that music to turn it down? The gang agrees and heads over to East Gearen, finding the source of the loud music, coming from a purple house with two Lilligant statues in front of it. Kiwi lets out a sigh. Kiwi: Welp, here we go again. ??? 1: Wait, WAIT! THE BEST PART OF THE SONG IS ABOUT TO COME ON! ??? 2: Veronica?! How many times do I have to tell you to not blast music like this?! Veronica: Ugh... Mom?! Can't you wait three seconds? The beat is about to drop! Mom: NO. That's enough. I've had it. Your incessant annoyance is too much for me! The neighbors have been complaining, the police have come and warned us! Veronica: WHO CARES? EAT THE POLICE! Kiwi: And three, two, one... Mom: I SAID ENOUGH! Some faint footsteps are heard, as well as the sound of a plug being pulled. The music turns off and the sound of scuffling is heard inside the top floor of the house. Veronica: Nooooooooo!!! CRASH! A Seviper is flung out of the roof of the house, landing right in front of the front door. She lays there, looking mortally injured. Mocha heads over to the probably dead Seviper. Veronica: Ouchie... Ouch... It looks like that wretched wench has defiled things once again... She's gone too far this time... I have been fatally wounded... This is... *cough*, the end for me... Mocha: Oh no, you look injured, should I bring you to a Pokemon Center. The Seviper shakes her head. Veronica: No... I won't make it... Please, kind stranger.... I need you... to do me a favor... The Berry Emporium... Please... Get me a Pecha Berry... I need to taste a Pecha Berry one last time before I go... Kiwi: Well we might as well get this over with, let's go, Mocha. The crew heads down to the Berry Emporium, asking a Ribombee clerk for a Pecha Berry. Kiwi: Okay, here's the thing, ma'am, Veronica asked us to get us a Pecha Berry. You got any? Clerk: Oh... I got one, alright. I'll be right back. The clerk goes in the storage room, and comes back out with a red Pecha Berry filled with wasabi. Clerk: When you feed this to Veronica, tell her that I'm tired of her persuading gullible tourists to do these foolish favors. They leave the Emporium, Mocha asks Kiwi... Mocha: Foolish favors? So this happens a lot? Kiwi: I'm afraid so, she plays dead on innocent, gullible tourists so she can beg for berries. Sorry you had to be involved in this crazy mess, Mocha. Now, let's give her a little karma, shall we? They return to Veronica's place, giving her the red Pecha Berry. Veronica: Th-that's... A Pecha Berry from the Berry Emporium! So delectable, so tasty, so exquisite. The taste is unimaginably delicious... Veronica instantly gets up, swiping it from Mocha's paw. Veronica: Hand it over, now. Kiwi: (Giving up the charade now, are we?) Once the Seviper eats the berry, her face goes completely red. Veronica: H-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h... HOOOOOOOOOTTTTTT!!! Veronica wails as she breathes out flames. After her bout of fire breathing, tears are seen streaming down the Seviper's face afterwards. Veronica: *cough* Kiwi: A word from the Berry Emporium, Venam, stop asking favors for tourists. It might just bite you in the ass- err, tail one day. Venam: Shoot, that broad down by the Berry Emporium finally found me out, huh? Damn, looks like my days of swindling gullible tourists are over. What a bummer, but nothing lasts forever, I guess. I'm totally over it. Really! Kiwi: (Are you, though?) Mocha: Venam? I thought your name was Veronica? Venam: Yeah, you probably heard my mom call me Veronica back there, but I would politely ask you to call me Venam. Veronica's such a prissy name. I hate it. I don't wanna be called it. Venam is tough, and also scary. So as for introductions. I'm Venam, Gym Leader of East Gearen City. What about you? Mocha: It's Mocha, I'm one of the new challengers for the Aevium League. Venam: Cool name! If you're looking for a battle, it'll have to wait, I'm meeting up with my friends. Say, do you want to come along? You should come meet my friends. They're cool people. In fact, I'm meeting the right now at the Abandoned Sewers. It's just south of my house. Sakura: And why should we? After your little berry begging stunt back there, why should we come with you? Venam: You said you're looking for Melia, right? Mocha: Wait, you know where Melia is? Venam: Yup, Ren was eavesdropping on your little conversation with the Professor, you're tasked to look after her, right? Mocha: Yeah, Kiwi asked a officer at the train station and the officer said he didn't see anyone named Melia board the train and that the train station is powered down. Venam: That's because she's sorting it out in the Sewer! Maybe if you come with me, you'll meet her down there. Mocha: Fine, we'll go down there with you. Venam: Great, you better show up or I'll have you buy me more food and I assure you that your wallet won't be happy with that. Venam slithers off, Kiwi lets out another sigh. Kiwi: Yup, that's Venam, alright. Mocha: She's a real piece of work, is she? Kiwi: Correctamundo, other than being East Gearen's gym leader, she claims she owns the Abandoned Sewer despite Jan and Zumi owning everything in Gearen. She isn't exactly dangerous, but she is annoying. Mocha: I can tell. On the way down to the sewer entrance, Ron is nervous. Sakura: Ron? Dear, are you alright? Ron: Yeah, it just... that Seviper said we're going down to a sewer, right? Those places can be pretty dangerous, especially for you, if it has Poison types. I'm just nervous, is all. What if we don't do well down there? Sakura: Oh, Ron. You'll do great down there! If we run into trouble down there, you can just take them out with your Sonic Boom! Ron: You really think I'll do good down there? Sakura: Absolutely, though I'm glad that you're worried about me, Ron, it just shows how thoughtful you are. Ron: ... Mocha's team head down to see Ren standing next to Venam, playing dead again. Venam: Please, Ren... That poor old, wretched, disgusting woman has done it again... I've been fatally wounded. This time for real. I cannot go anymore. All I ever- *COUGH*, wanted was a berry from the Berry Emporium... Ren, please... This is my last request... Kiwi: (Just as I thought...) Ren: Nice try, Venam. It's not working. Cut it out. Venam: PLEASE. Ren: Honestly, just get up, Venam. Or should I say, Veronica... Venam got up instantly, loudly hissing at the Froakie. Venam: DON'T CALL ME VERONICA. Ren: Yeah, yeah. Just open the door. Venam: Ren you're horrible. You wouldn't grant a dying girl's wish? Kiwi: Wow, you're a girl? Coulda fooled me. I thought you were just a feral Primeape with no direction. Ren and Venam turn around to see Mocha's team standing behind them, Venam scoffs at Kiwi. Venam: Jeez, Kiwi, can't you be sarcastic somewhere else? Kiwi: Not until 4. Venam: Mocha, can you believe this gal? Ren: Oh! Mocha's the one you were speaking about? Venam: Uh, yeah. She and Kiwi blasted me away with a Pecha Berry filled with wasabi. So of course we're friends now! Anyway, it sounds like you and Mocha already met so I'm just going to do my thing. Venam opens the door to the sewer and slithers inside, Mocha turns to Ren. Mocha: So, eavesdropping on me, huh? Ren: Yeah, sorry Mocha, but I heard the Professor talking to you about Melia in the forest. Don't waste your time. She's not there right now. There's an old power grid that the city still uses despite the actual sewer system being abandoned. Recently it was shut down by an unknown source. Melia decided she wanted to see if she could fix it herself. Mocha: Is she good with mechanical stuff like that? Ren: Professor Jenner is good with machines, so I bet he's taught her a good few things. Anyway, we shouldn't keep the ladies waitin'. Let's go. Mocha and Ren enter the sewers and decide to tag team the sewer together. Running into a few of Venam's friends along the way as well as a few sewer residents, they find Venam. Venam: GOD, you guys took your sweet ass time getting over here. Tch, whatever. This is where we're supposed to be. Come on! Venam goes inside the room. Sakura: We would've got here if you're little sewer buddies stopped pestering us, maybe stop being so impatient? The crew were just about to enter, until the electricity short-circuits and closes the door. Ren: Oh, you have got to be kidding me. The power just flickered again, and at such a *convenient* time. Mocha: Do you know how we can open it? Ren: There should be a generator somewhere. Let's just find it and reset it. ???: A generator you say? The gang turn to a Noibat hanging from the sewer pipes he flutters down and lands in front of the group. Ren: Oh, Alucard. Long time no see. Alucard: Lovely to see you again, Ren, if you're looking for those generators, they're south from this door here. Why don't you follow me? Alucard leads the group down to the south of the sewer. Mocha: Ren, who is that? Ren: Alucard, he's one of Venam's friends. He's in charge of looking after the sewer while Venam is gone. He isn't exactly strong on his own, but he is very smart. Alucard takes them to the generators, he clicks the buttons in front of them in order, the one on the right, the one on the left and the one in the middle. Alucard: And that's generator number 2! That should fix that door right up. Let's go see them, shall we? The gang make their way to the room Venam is to find her playing dead yet again, as well as the Togepi Mocha bumped into before in Gearen Lab. Looking at the Togepi now, Mocha could see that she looks completely different from a normal Togepi, she had a white body, and her shell was light gold with red and black patterns. From the looks of her, she has to be a shiny Togepi, as shinies in Aevium are certainly much different from ones in other regions. Venam: Please, that wretched old hag that lives deep within the concrete forest... She has fatally struck me once again... Kiwi: Here we go again... Alucard: I assume she's swindling Pokémon off their berries again? Ren: Are you seriously trying to swindle Melia now? You know she won't fall for that. Venam gets back up. Venam: A girl's gotta make her way through life somehow! It's nothin' personal. Melia: Venam, I'm trying to concentrate. Please keep it quiet on set! Venam: Alright, alright... I guess I'm done with the berry bit. For now. I'm just sooo bored. You said you'd be done with this hours ago... Melia: I know, I'm sorry. I just can't really find the issue with this thing. But I'm trying my best to get things done, I promise! Melia turns around, seeing the Pokemon who just arrived. She lets out a small gasp. Melia: Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't know you guys got here already. I was so engrossed in my work that I guess I zoned out my surroundings. Melia walks up to Mocha. Melia: Hey... Haven't we met before? You seem really familiar. Mocha: Yeah, you kinda bumped into me when I was going into Jenner's lab. Venam: Did everyone meet Mocha before me? Melia: Ohhh! Right! I did do that, didn't I? Sorry, again. Mocha: Don't worry about it, you didn't give me any trouble. Ren: So, back on the generator issue... What exactly is the problem? Melia: Ah... So, that's what I'm confused about. As of now, there seems to be nothing wrong. But as you can see, this thing is still going haywire. It's quite old, though. Maybe this ol' guy is just falling over, finally. Venam: Oh well, let's just forget it. We should check on the results of our experiment! Melia: Uh, about that... When I got here the bags of garbage we left here weren't here. Looks like our experiment to see if garbage bags actually can turn into Garbodor in certain conditions is a fail. A noise is heard from the generator, something is seen to be poking out from the top of the generator Ron: Something's coming out of that generator! Melia: Wh-what is that? The head of a blue and purple Garbodor pops out of the generator, letting out a roar with small bits of rubbish spewing from it's mouth. Melia: Wait, that's a Garbodor, and it... It colors are different! Ren: It happened again... Melia, your- Two normal Trubbish pop out of the front parts of the generator. Alucard: Looks like we got company. Venam: Wait a minute, Melia... There are three of them! I think... I think our experiment worked! Melia: No way... The Garbodor leaps from the generator and roars again. Kiwi: It doesn't seem like the friendly type... Ren: Don't worry! Me and Mocha got this! The Garbodor roars, and the two Trubbish rush forward, Alucard lands a Supersonic on one of them as the Trubbish poison him and Ren's Growlithe. Ron looks at Alucard, he seems to be pretty frail, he could be in big trouble if the Trubbish double team him. He leaps forward and pushes him out of the way. Alucard: Wha- The Trubbish smack him with Pound, only dealing a slight bit of damage. Ron: Don't worry, Alucard, I can do this! Ron defeats one of the Trubbish with two Sonic Booms, the other is taken out by Growlithe's Ember. Garbodor comes up next. Ron: Uh oh... Sakura: Ron! You can do it, I believe in you! Ron smiles at Sakura's cheers, he fires a Sonic Boom at the Garbodor, dealing a good chunk of damage, Ren's Growlithe deals a bit of damage to it with Ember, only to get knocked out by Garbodor's Pound, Ren calls his Cacnea partner out as Ron lands another Sonic Boom, bringing the Garbodor in the red, close to fainting, Cacnea throws a Leech Seed on the beast to drain it's last bit of HP, making the Garbodor faint. Ron: I... We did it! Ren: Great job! Venam looks at the weakened Trubbish, she sees this as a chance to add a new member to her team. Venam: You're mine! Venam throws a Pocket Ring at one of the weakened Trubbish and puts it in her Pocket Watch. Ren: As for the other two... Please don't just attack other Pokémon like that. If you want to get people's attention then you should be a little nicer. Garbodor: Sorry... The remaining Trubbish and Garbodor walk away from the group. Melia: Thanks for helping me out there. That Garbodor totally took me by surprise. Venam: You guys were awesome! That powerful combination was just so... SO... AMAZING! Melia: Yeah, and even if you guys weren't strong enough, we always had this to rely on! Melia sets down a briefcase. A few of Mocha's teammates gather around the briefcase. Kiwi: ... It's a briefcase. Melia: Yeah, my dad gave it to me right before he left. I opened it earlier and it just holds things like Potions and stuff like that. But my Dad told me to enter a secret code if things got really bad. If things got too dangerous, I would just have to enter that code. We'd be safe from harm! At least, I think we would be. Ren: Uh, okay then. Melia: Anyway, the generator seems to be working perfectly now! I can get onto my trip to Goldenwood Forest. But first... I think I'll head to Gearen Park and take more pictures for my album! Gotta go, guys. See you later! Melia leaves the room. Ren: So what are you going to do now, Mocha? If you want to get stronger, I hear Goldenwood- Venam: Wait just a moment! You COULD go to Goldenwood Forest... Or you could come visit me at my Gym! I challenge you, Mocha! Mocha: I'd love to! But can I at least get some training done, first? Venam: Alright, alright, but don't keep me waiting, I haven't met a good challenger in ages! I'll be waiting for you! The gang leave the sewers. Ren: I have some research to do for the Professor, so I'll be at Magnolia Library. Take care, Mocha. The gang wave goodbye to Ren as he heads west, Mocha turns to her team. Mocha: Right, this will be our first gym challenge, let's work together and get some training done, okay? Alucard: Mocha! Just a moment, please! Alucard flies out of the sewer entrance, landing in front of the group. Mocha: Alucard! Shouldn't you be looking after the sewers? Alucard: Well, I had a talk with Venam, looking after the sewers is starting to get, well, dull. I was admired by your teamwork and I wish to explore the region with you. What do you say, Mocha, do you want me to join your team? Mocha: Alright, welcome to the team, Alucard! Mocha pulls out a ring and captures Alucard, inserting the ring into the PW. Mocha: So, who'll take care of the sewers now that you are gone, Alucard? Alucard: Knowing Venam, she has plenty of friends in the sewers, I'm sure she'll find a replacement sooner or later. Mocha, now with a new friend, Alucard, moves away from the sewers to do some training for their first gym battle in Aevium. ------------------ Team Ratings
  7. Chapter 1 Part 2: Making Friends Mocha explores Gearen City, taking a look through every nook and cranny to find things to help her for her journey, she decided that first thing she'd have to do before dealing with Jenner's request is to find some teammates. Taking on the Aevium League will be tough, she didn't want to take it on the league on her own. She bumps into a female Fomantis. Fomantis: Oh, sorry! I honestly didn't see where I was going there. Mocha: Don't worry about it, I guess I have a tendency of bumping into Pokemon, I guess. The Fomantis gets up, seeing the Pocket Watch on Mocha's wrist. Fomantis: Oh, that thing on your wrist, that's a Pocket Watch, is it? Mocha: Yeah, I just received one from the Professor. Fomantis: So, that makes you a League challenger, does it? Oh, my apologies, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm- The Fomantis stops speaking and sees a male Buizel leaving the pier, with a look of loneliness and despair on his face. Mocha: Hey, are you alright? Buizel: ...I'm fine, just... continue with your day. The Buizel walks off, heading deep into the city. Fomantis: Oh dear... Sorry to stop this conversation, but I must check on my friend. Mocha: What's wrong with him? Fomantis: I'm not so sure myself, but I think it might have to do with his partner. His partner's not exactly a patient fellow. ???: Impatient is one word, another thing he is is thick-headed! A female Alolan Rattata appears right behind the girls, tutting at the Pokemon's stupidity Alo Rattata: I mean, who gives up on a Buizel? It has Swift Swim, for cryin' out loud! All you gotta do is get some get some Rain or a Water Surface and BOOM! You're done! Fomantis: Oh, Kiwi! Good morning! Kiwi: Mornin' Sakura! Is that a new challenger next to you? Sakura: Oh, yes, she just ran into me! I believe her name is... oh, I never got your name, didn't I? Mocha: It's Mocha. Kiwi: Mocha, huh? Nice name. Tell me, Mocha, have you been to this city before? Mocha: No, this my first time coming to this region. Kiwi: Well, you're in luck! Allow me to be your tour guide! A lot of challengers new to Aevium get lost in this big city and run into a lot of trouble. I know the city like the back of my paw, so I wanna help 'em out! You got some Pocket Rings from the Professor, right? Mocha: Yeah, I'm pretty sure Amanda told me to throw them at the Pokemon that I want to join my team, right? Kiwi: Yup! Go ahead, throw it at me! Mocha throws the ring at Kiwi, it spins around her, making her get sucked into the ring. The ring goes from light blue to dark blue, probably indicating that the capture was a success. Mocha picks up the ring. Mocha: (Amanda said to press the ring against the watch, right?) Mocha does exactly as she is told, the ring disappears into the watch, a icon of a Alolan Rattata appears in the six slot party right next to Mocha's icon. Kiwi's voice is heard from inside the watch. Kiwi: Not bad! I'm sure whoever taught you how the watch works taught you how to send Pokémon out right? You can let me out later, and I can show you around! Sakura: Well, I'll leave you two to it, I have to make sure my friend doesn't do anything foolish. Take care, you two! Mocha waves goodbye to Sakura, she sends Kiwi back out, remembering what Amanda did to send out that Hattena, and Kiwi begins her little tour. She shows her around the town, while the duo fight some other Pokemon along the way, they stop at a green building. Kiwi: And this right here is Emerald Building! Once we head north from here, we'll be at Gearen Library and the Help Centre! ???: Just started helping out others, are you, Kiwi? A Nidoran M walks up to them. Kiwi: Figured I might as well help this one challenger out so I can become a tour guide for this City. Anyway, how are you doing, Duke? Duke: I'm alright, have you guys heard rumors of ghosts in the third floor of Emerald Building? Mocha: Ghosts? Duke: Yeah, apparently whenever someone goes up to the third floor they hear someone telling them to get out, but they never seen what it was. I wanna see if those rumors are true. You guys wanna come with? Kiwi: Count me in! I always wanted to see a ghost in action! Mocha: Well, I guess I might as well check it out. Duke: Great, by the way, who's that next to you, Kiwi? Mocha: It's Mocha, nice to meet you. Duke: Pleasures all mine. Say, Mocha you have one of those rings on you, right? Mocha pulls out a Void Ring from her bag and throws it at Duke. She inserts the ring in her Pocket Watch and sees a icon of a Nidoran M pop up on the 6-slot party. Duke: Sweet. Looking forward to working with you, Mocha. Mocha resends Duke out, and the gang head up to the third floor of Emerald Building. Finding themselves in a dark room. Kiwi asks Mocha to get a ring out, Kiwi always wanted to befriend a ghost, and now her dreams might be coming true. Mocha: No one's here... Kiwi: Guess that makes sense, once they heard the rumors of ghosts being here, no one would ever come into here. Just as Kiwi says this, a male Shuppet, invisible to them, sneaks up on Mocha. Shuppet: Hey. Mocha: AAAAHHH!! Mocha, surprised by the Shuppet sneaking up on her, throws the ring in his direction, capturing him by accident. She walks over to the ring and inserts it into the watch. The fourth icon fills the fourth slot of the party. The Shuppet's voice is heard from the watch. Shuppet: Just my luck... I get caught by some outsider just as I was about to get comfy here. Kiwi: Well maybe if you didn't sneak on Mocha like that, she wouldn't of caught you! The Shuppet grumbles and lets out a huff. Mocha: Well, like it or not, it looks like you're on my team now. Do you have a name? Casper: ... It's Casper, alright? Now leave me be. Duke: It's probably best to leave him in the PW for now, maybe he'll lighten up to us later? Mocha: Yeah, Kiwi, you said there's a Help Center, right? Kiwi: Yup! It's a great place to get good stuff for your journey, as well as some quick cash! Follow me guys! The gang leave the building and enter the Help Center taking on a few requests given by the Pokémon, like helping a Charmeleon confess his love to a Servine and helping a Bonsly help their friend, a Starly from some thugs trying to sell it in some place called the Badlands. Just as the thugs were about to escape by boat... ???: Nuh-uh-uh, don't fly away little dove! !Gemagarugo! Mocha heard a voice yell some weird words, similar to the ones she heard that cloaked Lucario say in that dream she had the day before she left Galar, the boat the thugs were about to leave on were pierced by sharp rocks. Looking up, she could see an Ampharos surrounded by green energy standing on a roof. Ampharos: Little dove, little dove, little dove, pity dove. A bird can no longer fly with clipped wings. We can't have peasants like you running around. !Aevogio! The Ampharos yells some more weird words, the green energy being replaced by purple energy surrounding her feet, she leaps over the roof and lands safely in front of the thugs. Ampharos: Look at what we have here! A couple of no-good thugs trying to steal a poor pigeon. As punishment, you three shall be my faithful servants. !Gou Aevogio! Ampharos starts chanting even more weird words, levitating one of the thugs and changing his name, despite the thug being fine with his own name, the Ampharos ignores this and sends him away, starts levitating the other two, sending them away and changing their names as well. The Starly flies over to the weird Ampharos. Starly: Thank you, miss! Karen: It seems this little pigeon is doing fine. The name's Karen. I'm- Actually, let's keep that a little secret for now. Just giving out all the info in the beginning is boring and deprives mystery. Karen turns to the destroyed ship, admiring the stones that pierce the ship. Karen: Do you like my little stone creation? Magic is a beautiful thing. A beautiful thing Pokémon tend to push away because they fear it. Have you ever heard of the Garufa? Mocha: Uh... No ma'am. Karen: The Garufa were an ancient tribe that roamed the world centuries ago. They harvested other Pokemon's power and sealed their soul along with their along with their partner's soul into a book. Allowing them to enhance their power and cast magic parallel to their partner's type. Look at me ramble. Don't worry, it's funny. Mocha: But what about the driver of that ship, do you think they survived all that? Karen: They probably had family, but who really cares about family anyway? I find stone much more lovely. Mocha was baffled with what the Ampharos said, the way she said it so nonchalantly rubbed her the wrong way, someone just got killed! Sure, they assisted the thugs, but she sounded like she didn't give a single crap about the fact that she probably committed a murder. Karen says goodbye to Mocha and the Starly, as she sorts out the mess she made on the destroyed ship. Trying to shake off the terrible meeting with Karen, she take another request, helping a Pokémon ask others about a hidden library in Gearen. She asks a history teacher at the park as well as a receptionist Persian at the Chrisola Hotel. Receptionist: Hmm... It seems like you're not a street rats after all, allow me to- ???: Weeeeeee!!! A Duraludon riding a hotel trolley comes rolling in towards Mocha and co, all of them were able to avoid it, well, all except for Duke. CRASH! ???: Owie powie kazowie, lowie! That hurt! Recep: M-Ms. Blakeory! What on earth are you doing?! How many times do I have to tell you not to use the trolleys in such a barbaric manner! You almost killed these hooligans with it! I pray to Arceus that they doesn't file a lawsuit! Mocha and Kiwi went to check on Duke, who laid on the hotel floor, completely dizzy with stars circling around him from the trolley ramming into him. The Duraludon looks down on Duke. Kiwi: Hey, Duke, you alright? Duke: P-pretty stars... ???: Aw, quit worrying so much! He doesn't even have a scratch on them! Besides he got in the way of my trolley first! I should sue for the damages myself, hehe! But for real, sorry for slamming my trolley into you like that! It was a accident... really! The name's- Receptionist: Ms. Blakeory, stop wasting time! The helicopter is waiting for you on the roof as we speak! ???: Oh CRUD! I forgot I requested that... I haven't even packed yet, hah. Val will kill me if I'm late again! Oh darn, what a bother! Eh, but who needs to pack when the world is your Cloyster! Because, well, you know what they say! The group stare at her bewildered as she messed up the last few sentences. Mocha: Uhhhh... ???: Anyway, gotta go, but it was nice crashing into you! The Duraludon runs off to one of the elevators, the receptionist clears his throat and continues the conversation. Receptionist: Well, as I was saying... After receiving the last bit of info from the receptionist and a gang leader named Karrina, they hand out the info they received to the requester and receive they're reward, the gang find Sakura and the Buizel Mocha met before, talking to each other near Chrisola Hotel. Sakura: Ron, you don't need to be on your own. I found a League challenger! We can train you to become better! Ron: I appreciate you consideration Sakura, but who would want me on their team? I'm so weak, I can barely beat a Bug type! ???: Hey, you! The group notice a Bulbasaur come in with a Rhyhorn and a Exeggcute. Bulbasaur: I hear you can learn some really powerful moves if I took you to a move tutor. Come back with me, and I'll give you a second chance! Ron: ... Sakura: How foolish, so you'll only take him back just because you think he'll have 'use' for you again? I've had enough of you pushing him around, time to settle this once and for all. The Bulbasaur and his entourage surround the Fomantis, laughing at her. Bulbasaur: Pffft! Come off it, lady! Do you seriously think you can take down the three of us? You're completely outnumbered! Sakura look of bravery slowly falters to a look of worry, he's right, how is she going to take all three of them down? There's no way she can do this on her own. Ron is going to be taken away to be pushed around by these bullies again. Mocha steps forward. Mocha: Hey, you heard her, leave him alone. The rest of the gang gather around the Bulbasaur's team, the Bulbasaur looking nervous knowing that he's starting to get outnumbered. Bulbasaur: ... I-I ain't afraid of you lot! Bring it on! Mocha: Go get him, Duke! Duke and the Bulbasaur charge toward each other, Duke Pecks the Bulbasaur with his horn, the Bulbasaur tries to drain his HP with Leech Seed, but he is taken out when Duke Pecks him again. The bigger brute, Rhyhorn stands in front of Duke. Sakura: Leafage! Sakura hits the Rhyhorn in the backside by tossing leaves at him, dealing massive damage, it rams into her hard with Horn Attack, but Sakura takes the hit and uses Leafage again, taking him out. Exeggcute comes up next, Mocha notices Sakura took a lot of damage from the Rhyhorn's Horn Attack, so she figure she might as well give Casper a time to shine, maybe it'll help him lighten up if he does some battling. Mocha: Sakura, allow me. Come on out Casper! Mocha swipes the watch forward, summoning Casper, he looks around. Casper: What the- He sees a Exeggcute ready to fight he groans and turns to Mocha. Casper: Are you kidding me?! You're asking me to fight? Mocha: Come on, Casper! I figured it would do you well to battle with us! Casper glares at Mocha then groans and turns to the Exeggcute. Casper: *sigh* Fine... Bring it on, you stupid egg. Casper smacks the Exeggcute with Knock Off, while his opponent throws a Leech Seed on him, Casper lands two Night Shades on him, finishing the Exeggcute off. Casper: There, I beat him, happy? Word of advice, toots, NEVER let me out to battle with you guys again. I don't plan on being buddy-buddy with you outsiders, now let me back in. Mocha sighs and lets Casper back in the watch. Mocha: Well, it was worth a shot. The Bulbasaur groans, getting up and glaring daggers at Ron. Bulbasaur: Fine, you know what, Ron? You can do whatever you want. If you wanna join these half-assed losers, then fine. But just know that I was the only one who coulda trained you to be the best. The Bulbasaur and his entourage, injured from the huge battle, walk off defeated. Sakura lets out a huff and says, Sakura: Good riddance. Ron: Thanks, everyone. Mocha: No problem, we couldn't leave you with that jerk. Sakura: It's a good thing you came just in time, Mocha, I honestly thought Ron was gone to those bullies. Oh! Ron, I never got to introduce you to Mocha, she's the League challenger I was telling you about! Ron: That's her? Kiwi: The one and only. Mocha: So, you're Ron, huh? Nice to meet you! Ron: Nice to meet you, too. But, there's no way you'd use me on my team, I'm way too weak. Mocha places a paw on Ron's shoulder. Mocha: Then we'll help you get stronger together. I'm going to need all the support I'll get to take on the Aevium League, and I'm sure you'll make a great member to the team, so, what do you say? The Buizel stops and thinks about it, then nods his head. Ron: ...You know what? Yeah, I'll do it! Sakura: That's the spirit, Ron! I would love to join your team, Mocha, if Ron is coming, then I am too! Mocha nods at her, she pulls out two rings and throws them at Ron and Sakura, she adds them to the PW, filling out the last two party slots. Mocha: Welcome to the team, you two. Mocha, now with a full party of 6, she sets off to explore the city to take care of the Professors request of finding and looking after Melia. ------------------ Team Ratings
  8. Chapter 1 Part 1: Welcome to Gearen! Mocha and her savior fly high across the sea, the bird Pokemon looked down and saw some land, she flew down and dropped Mocha onto the pier, Mocha instantly kneeling down and breathing heavily, she wasn't used to flying up so high, especially while being held by the talons of a bird Pokemon. She looked up to see that her savior was a Talonflame Talonflame: Oh dear... Are you alright? Mocha didn't have the air to reply at the moment, she seems to be alright, other than a bruise on her arm from that Barbaracle. She nods her head at the bird. Talonflame: Oh thank goodness... I was able to save at least one person. Do you know what happened to the ship you were on? Mocha was able to catch her breath, her voice was a bit shaky from the events from before. She got up, took and deep breath and explained the situation. Mocha: Some guys with red X's on them... They blew up the ship. We got attacked by these weird Pokemon, I don't know if anyone else survived that attack, but my mother, my sister... Talonflame: I see... That's a harrowing tale. I'm so sorry you went through that. I was on my way to East Gearen from Terajuma when I picked up a distress call. I made my way to that location as fast as possible and, well... Oh! I am so sorry. I didn't even properly introduce myself. The Talonflame shakes Mocha's paw, giving her a warm smile. Tesla: My name is Tesla. Tesla Von Brandt. I'm from the tropical island of Aevium. That being Terajuma Island. It's my pleasure to meet you! What's your name? Mocha: It's Mocha, pleasure to meet you, miss. Tesla: What a wonderful name! Now that that's out of the way, I wanted to say that I wouldn't worry about your mother. It looks like the group that attacked the ship was Team Xen. They're a criminal organization that seemed to just have popped up in Aevium out of nowhere. But they're usually known to be somewhat incompetent, or at least, rarely active. That's what is so confusing about this. I believe this is their first actual attack? Mocha wasn't sure what to say about any of this, so the terrorists that attack the ship were Team Xen? There was no way Mocha would believe that they're incompetent, especially if they're doing so serious as threatening to blow up the ship just to take her mother away. She was lost in thought, why were they after her mother? What did her mother do that made her a target for Team Xen? Was this why her mother was talking to this Crescent person? Tesla: Mocha, are you alright? Mocha: Oh, yeah, I'm fine... Tesla: Anyway, you seem to be all alone now, if you don't mind me asking, what do you plan on doing now? If Mocha remembered correctly, Amanda told her to meet her at Gearen Laboratory, she doesn't exactly have anywhere else to go, so she might as well get stuff sorted there and also find a place to sleep, she wasn't expecting today to be so tiring. Mocha: I'm taking on the Aevium League, so I guess I'm supposed to go to Gearen Laboratory. Tesla: That's a wonderful idea. You may be able to get started on your journey from there. You're going to need a visit to there if you're going to travel around Aevium. I think I'm going to head to the wreck site to see if I can find anymore survivors. Tesla walks a few steps away and prepares to take off. Tesla: I'm a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. Things will work out eventually if you're patient. We'll see each other again soon, Mocha, I'm sure of it. Do you mind clearing the way? Mocha moves out of the way as Tesla flies off in full speed with Tailwind. Mocha watches her fly off, but instantly rushed out of the pier to get out of the wind and rain. She finds Gearen Laboratory, running into Amanda. Amanda: Hm? Are you Mocha? Oh my gosh. What took you so long to get here? I thought you ditched me! Mocha groaned at Amanda's yelling, she's tired enough as is, she didn't want a headache. Mocha: Could you stop screaming at me, please? I'm not in the mood for all this noise now. Amanda: Sorry, are you alright? You look tired. Mocha: You have no idea. Amanda: Well, I could ask Nurse Joy if you could use one of the guest rooms. Is that alright? Mocha: Yeah, that should be fine. Once Mocha gets approval from Nurse Joy to use one of the guest rooms, Mocha slowly walks over and flops onto her bed, falling asleep instantly. A few minutes later, she wakes up in a purple mist, a Zorua comes up to her, walking around her and inspecting her. He giggles and says, Zorua: So, you're the Mocha I've been hearing so much about! My client is going to be happy to find out you're okay! Mocha: You're client? Who are you? How... Zorua: Hehehehehe! I'm afraid I'm running out of time, but I'm looking forward to hanging out with you again, Mocha! Ciao! The Zorua runs deep into the mist, Mocha tries to follow him, but the mist fades, leaving Mocha in darkness. Mocha wakes up, looking around to see that she's back in the guest room. Was that place and that Zorua all just a dream? She hops off the bed, making her way to the lab's reception. Amanda heads over to her. Amanda: Morning, Mocha! Ready to begin your journey? Mocha nods her head at the Hatterene. Amanda: Great! Follow me! Amanda asks the receptionist on the far right to open the gate to the lab. Amanda: Right this way, Mocha! ???: Amanda. Amanda: Uh oh... An Grimmsnarl with brown eyes and a dark t-shirt walks up to Amanda. ???: And where have you been? I've tried getting in touch with you for weeks now. Why haven't you gotten back to me? Also that hat is new. Did you buy it during your trip to Grand Dream City? Amanda: Oh you know... I've been busy and stuff. And yes I bought this hat at GDC. Stylish, isn't it? ???: While you've been "busy" shopping, I've gone ahead and finished our project. I need you to go deliver it to Zumi for me. She's presently studying at Magnolia Library. Amanda: Oh! You know, I would, but I'm sorta busy with Mocha. The Grimmsnarl looks behind Amanda to see Mocha. ???: Another new challenger? I see. Amanda: Yep! Mocha, meet Jan. Jan, meet Mocha. Jan: Nice to meet you, Mocha. I'm Amanda's brother. Amanda: Yep! My bro here co-manages the league with me! Jan: If by "co-manage" you mean "Jan does all the work while Amanda plays outside"... Then yeah, I do co-manage. Amanda: You know I'm better with more hands on stuff, Jan. Plus, you're better with the paperwork. I mean honestly, is it such a good idea to pin me with all the legal documentation the league requires? Jan: ... I suppose you're right. If I left you with all that stuff you'd make sure everything burned down to the ground. Anyway, since you're not willing to deliver this for me, I will myself. Amanda: Okay, you do that! Jan: See you two later. Jan heads outside to deal with the delivery. Amanda: Right, back to business! I'll meet you inside the actual lab, okay? Mocha follows her into the lab, only to bump into a strangely colored Togepi Togepi: Owie... Sorry about that. I'm in a rush. Please excuse me. Mocha gets up and watches the Togepi leave. She shrugs it off and goes inside the actual lab, a Klingklang is seen talking to a Houndoom through a screen. Houndoom: And above all else, make sure she's there for the pickup. Klingklang: ...I assure you that things have already been set into motion. Amanda: Professor Jenner? I've bought the new challenger as requested. Amanda clears her throat, as soon as the Klingklang hears this, he presses a button switching the monitor into a board filled with statistics. Jenner: O-oh, Amanda. I didn't think you'd get here so soon. Amanda: So soon? We're technically late, Professor. Jenner: In any case, welcome to my laboratory, Mocha! I am the lead scientist here at Gearen Lab. I was hired by Jan and Zumi- Amanda: Professor, you always put the league challengers through this lengthy introduction! Jenner: A-ah, I suppose you're right. In that case, please take Mocha and help her get started! Amanda takes Mocha over to a desk and settles down a purple watch and a few light blue rings. Amanda: First things first! Mocha, mind holding still? Amanda picks up the watch on the desk and scans Mocha with it, she hands the watch to her, revealing a image of Mocha on the watch. Amanda: Thanks to a simple scanning, you are now the official owner of a Pocket Watch! A special watch made by the Blakeory's to keep your teammates safe in a little pocket dimension. You can speak to them through it and also send them back out for battle! You're also going to be needing these as well. She hands Mocha the light blue rings. Ama: And these are Pocket Rings, once you throw this at a Pokemon who wants to join your team, press the ring against the watch, and they'll enter the pocket dimension and become your teammate. Keep plenty on you, though. You'll never know if you'll bump into a great teammate! Mocha wraps the watch around her wrist and places the rings Amanda handed to her in her bag. Mocha: I'll take good care of them, thank you. Amanda: Well then! Lets see how good you are! I won't battle you, but my buddy will! Amanda reveals her Pocket Watch, she presses icon on it and swipes forward, summoning a Hatenna. Amanda: Ready? Mocha nods her head and battles the Hatenna. She take it down with a few Tackles, seems like her training with her sister paid off. Amanda: Gee willickers, Mary Ann! I was blown away by your potential! You have a long way to go, but I know for a fact that you'll get there. Well, that's all from me! You should go see Professor Jenner. See you later, Mocha, and good luck on your journey! As Amanda leaves the lab, Mocha goes to see Jenner. Jenner: Congratulations, Mocha! Your journey is just beginning. But that aside, I have something personal to ask you. It has to do with- The door opens, a Froakie comes in summoning a Pocket Ring from his Pocket Watch and hands it to Jenner. Froakie: Professor, I'm back from my trip to Amethyst Cave! Here's the backup Pokemon you lended me. Jenner: Ah, Ren... You got back quickly. Ren: Yep, I got research on all the Pokemon you requested too. I told you hiring me as your assistant was a good idea! Oh? Who is this? A new recruit? Jenner: Not a new recruit, but a new league challenger. Ren: So you're a new challenger, huh? My name's Ren. I'm not new, per se, but I've done a reset recently so I'm basically at that level. Mocha: Nice to meet you, Ren. Ren: I'm curious to see how you preform in battle. Show me what you got! Mocha Growls at Ren to weaken his attack, he tries to take her down with some STAB boosted Tackles, but Mocha's Tackles were stronger, Ren was taken down in three turns. Ren gets up and shakes Mocha's paw. Ren: Not bad! Not bad at all! Though it was my first time battling by myself. Professor Jenner usually lends me his teammates so I can take on more dangerous things. Jenner: Speaking of which, I have another task for you when you're ready. Ren: Oh... Do you mind if I take on that task a little later? I promised some friends that I'd meet up with them after I came back. Jenner: I suppose you've done enough for the mean time. Very well. Ren: Thank you, Professor. I'll see you again tomorrow. Later, Mocha. We'll see each other soon, I'm sure. Mocha waves goodbye to Ren. Jenner: About that personal favor... I have a daughter named Melia. I sent her to Route 1 and Goldenwood Forest a little while ago. I have faith that she'll be able to take care of herself, but... I'd... feel better if there was someone to look after her. Mocha wasn't sure if she could trust this Klingklang, she did see him conversing with that Houndoom about someone being there for a "pickup", the Houndoom he was talking to didn't seem to be a nice Pokemon. She didn't want to jump to conclusions, so she might as well take on this request and see how things turn out. Mocha: I understand, sir. Jenner: Of course, I won't let you do this without reward. Please take these as payment in advance. Jenner gives Mocha a Pokedex and CyberNav and explains how they work, Mocha places the Dex inside her bag and hooks the Nav onto the bag strap. She leaves Jenner's lab and bumps into Jan. Jan: Ah, Mocha, would you come over here please? Jan takes her to a room with a few gadget bolted to the floor. He tells her what they and how they work. The PC Star acts as a portable PC, the Gym Guide gives info on the Gym Leader the challenger is challenging and healing stars are portable Pokemon centers, gold ones heal infinitely while red ones only heal once. After the lesson, Mocha leaves the lab, taking a good look at the world around her. As much as she is worried about her mother and sister, she made a promise with her mother, and she wasn't going to let it go. Maybe if she's lucky, she'll meet her family again. Mocha, now with a positive attitude and a desire to take on the Aevium League, heads off to a brand new adventure. ------------------------------ That was the first part of Chapter One! Sorry to keep you waiting, everyone! Next time Mocha will begin her adventure in Gearen and find some team members. Team Ratings
  9. Prologue Part 2: Shipwreck A Corviknight soars away from the countryside of Galar, carrying a Gardevoir with pink hair named Nancy, a Mawile with a red bow named Sally and a Scorbunny named Mocha inside a taxi. The family had just left their hometown of Postwick to move to Aevium, a region that's quite far from Galar. The Corviknight lands at the pier of Hulbury and lets the group off the taxi. Nancy gives the Corviknight a tip for his good work. Corviknight: Thanks love, you three have a safe trip, now! Nancy: Thank you very much! Take care! As the Corviknight flies off to his next customer, Nancy, Sally and Mocha board the ship. The voyage lasted for a few days, on the last day of the voyage, Mocha was able to meet a Hatterene named Amanda and get her League Card registered with some support from Sally. Amanda: Alright, that should be it, I'm really looking forward to seeing you, Mocha! Mocha: Thank you, miss. Sally: See you soon! As the machine Mocha was using switched off and gave Mocha her League Card, Mocha gave a sigh of relief. Mocha was a shy Scorbunny, she's not much of a social Beautifly, which was why she needed Sally for support. It was Sally who suggested Mocha try the Aevium League, as it would be a great way to make new friends and boost her confidence. Sally was always supportive to Mocha, she was her younger sister, after all! Mocha: Thanks for the support, Sal. Sally: No worries, sis! You're gonna be great out there, believe me! Just as they left the registration room, they run into Nancy. Nancy: Oh, Mocha! I was just on my way to see how things were going. Sally: Hey mom, guess who's got a League Card now? Mocha holds up the League Card, showing her picture on the top left of the card. Nancy: How lovely! That means you're officially ready to go, Mocha! Mocha: So... You two never told me what Aevium's like. Sally: Oh, it's amazing! There's so much stuff to do and see there! Nancy: Once we disembark at Oceana Pier, we're off to Akuwa Town. It's a colder, but cozy place to spend our days, you'll see! Mocha was lost in thought, she still had that dream she had the day before departing Galar locked in her mind. She couldn't stop wondering about that Stufful, the mysterious Pokemon or that cult. She had this strange feeling that all that happen in the dream probably happened. But why? She had bad dreams before, but those were just silly fears, why does this one dream still bug her? Sally: Sis? Hey, Mocha! Mocha came back to reality, she saw Nancy and Sally stare at her with worried looks. Sally walks close to her. Sally: Hey, sis, you alright? You've been so quiet since before we left Postwick Mocha stayed silent for a bit, she was worried they'd think she's crazy if she explained that weird dream she had, she had to say something, she doesn't want them to worry even more. Mocha: Yeah, I'm fine... Sally: Glad to hear! I know moving away from Galar is hard, but think about the new adventures we'll have when we're in Aevium! Mocha smiled, it's a good thing they thought it was nerves from moving, she didn't want them to egg her on about talking about her dream. Nancy: We should be docking at Oceana Pier later tonight. In the meantime, why don't you two explore the ship and speak with the Captain? He's a long time friend of mine. Sally, don't you get into any trouble now. Sally mischievously giggles and heads off to mess around on the ship. Mocha lightly chuckles as Sally heads off, as Nancy lets out a sigh. Nancy: As for me, I... I have to be somewhere right now. Please take care, Mocha. I love you. Mocha waves goodbye to her mother and heads downstairs play on her game for a short while in her room. While playing her video game, she hears talking next door. Her family's room had a small hole in the wall, so it was easy to hear noises next door to their room. She could help but pause her game and eavesdrop on the conversation. Mocha explores the ship. Meets Wigglytuff pianist. Goes to her room and hears noise, eavesdrops on conversation. Nancy: Crescent, Mocha talked to me and Sally today. Things are looking up, I hope... Crescent: That's good... Maybe she's starting to calm down now. Anyway, I called you here to make sure you completely understand your position. Mocha was surprised to hear her mother's voice, but didn't know who the other Pokemon was, what does she mean by 'her position'? Nancy: Yes, but I'm going to be transparent with you- I'm not so sure I'm ready for this. I know what you said about me before, but I think I genuinely feel fear. Crescent: Stop talking nonsense. I don't want to hear about your faux emotions. All I'm interested in hearing is you telling me that you're ready to take this role. Actually, this just makes it all more obvious that the issue with you is all my fault. I didn't make it clear enough to you that you are here to do one thing and one thing only. Being unable to complete this role will result in Quinn becoming very angry with you. A haunting laugh is heard through the wall, sending shivers down Mocha's spine. Crescent: Is the situation understandable now? I won't explain again. Nancy: Yes... I understand, Crescent. Crescent: All I want is to see Mocha smile. To see that she's enjoying life. That's. All. I. Want. The last four words were spoken very sternly, as if this Pokemon hammered this request into Nancy's head. The room went silent for a bit, until Crescent continued. Crescent: Listen, the Farewell Banquet is about to begin. Let's just stay focused. I need to get ready. Just keep an eye on Mocha and... You know the rest. Nancy: Will Sally be okay as well? Crescent: ... As long as you do as your told, I'll see what I can do. Nancy: ... I understand. I'll be on my way. Mocha stood in silence, she didn't know who this Pokemon is, or why Nancy is taking orders from her. She became worried for her, she switched off her game and explored the ship. The music from the Wigglytuff's piano eased her worries, but for only a bit. She figured she should do what her mother told her to do and meet Augustus Briney. A Pelipper who is the captain of the ship. She makes her way up to the captains room to meet Augustus. Augustus: Oh-hoho! You must be the wonderful Mocha, aren't you? Please, please, come. I've been expecting you. Mocha heads over to Augustus's desk. Augustus: My name is Augustus, Augustus Briney. I come from a family of sailors. I happen to be the Captain of the S.S. Oceana. So tell me, how is your voyage so far? Surely it must be enjoyable? Mocha: It's been wonderful, sir. Augustus: Oh-hoho! That's what I like to hear. I've done my very best to keep things nice and orderly on this ship. Anyway, your mother asked me to go through a few things with you before we disembark in Aevium. Mocha asked a few things about Aevium, the League, the obedience of Pokemon and also the region itself. She learned many things from him, like there being 18 Gym Leaders and 8 Elite Four members instead of the usual 8 and 4, level capping and also how there are four main islands known as Floria, Terajuma, Terrial and Artrica that used to be one whole island, but were split apart. Augustus: Very well then, in that case, let's end our little conversation. The Farewell Banquet is about to begin, after all. Today will be the final day of our journey and as such we'll be celebrating a successful voyage. Mocha leaves the captain's room and runs into Sally. Sally: Soooo... What do you think of the captain? Pretty nice guy, huh? Mocha: He's seems like a lovely Pokemon. What have you been up to? Sally: Oh y'know, the usual. Up to no good, as always. Mocha smiled at Sally's reply, she was thinking of telling Sally about what she heard in her room. She might know about who Nancy was talking to next door. She was going to ask until... Nancy: Ah, Mocha, Sally! There you are! She heard Nancy voice, the sisters turned to see their mother with a big smile on her face. Nancy: Come on, let's not leave everyone waiting, shall we? They all went inside the banquet hall, which was filled with Pokemon, as well as the Wigglytuff piano lady who was playing a soothing melody for the banquet. The family moved to their reserved seat, next to where a female Meowstic and a Gothitelle was sitting. The captain began his speech for the Farewell Banquet, wishing them all a safe trip to Aevium. Just as he was going to start the banquet, however... ???: Sorry, but I think there's something that needs taking care of first. A Machoke, a Roselia and a Electrode enter the room. Augustus: Hrm? What is the issue here? Please, return to your seats! Machoke: Hm... No, I think we won't. This ship is under our control now. The trio throw away their formal attire to reveal dark clothing with a X plastered on their shirts. Nancy: What is the meaning of this?! Piano Lady: Is... Is this a hi-jacking?! Grunt: You must be insane if you run in front of people like us. But we'll give you the benefit of the doubt and let you sit back down. C'mon, take our generous offer! Nancy stood her ground. Nancy: I refuse. Grunt: Grrgh... You'll regret this, lady! Nancy: Crescent! Get Mocha out of here! Sally: Crescent? The Meowstic stayed silent, she casted her eye over to the Gothitelle and nods at her. Mocha could hear the Gothitelle laughter and felt psychic energy surround her, teleporting out of the banquet hall. Sally jumps out of her seat as Mocha vanishes into thin air. Sally: M-Mocha?! Grunt: This ship is going down! BOOM! Mocha opens her eyes, she finds herself in the captain's room, set ablaze and in complete shambles. She slowly gets up and cautiously heads down the stairs, finding a Vigoroth with a few bruises and a hole on the floor behind him. Vigoroth: You there, child! Thank goodness you're all right. Mocha: What happen? W-where is everyone?! Vigoroth: I was just hanging around out here and there was this huge explosion... It knocked me off my feet and flat on my face, but I'm alright. But unfortunately we're trapped because the flooring here has gone under... A Deoxys flies out of the hole on the ship floor. It glares at the Vigoroth with pitch black soulless eyes and grabs him, dragging him down into the hole. Mocha watches on in fear, shaking like a leaf. She scurries of into the banquet hall, which has a giant hole right in the middle of the room. She sees the Wigglytuff piano lady, who rushes over to her. Piano Lady: Hey, look who it is! I gotta say, kid... I'm glad to see you. I dunno how you were able to weasel your way out of that explosion, but kudos to you! Mocha: Where's my sister, w-where's my mom? Piano Lady: ...I dunno. Sorry, I was blinded during that explosion and passed out. The smoke in here is intense. We can't stay here for long, but... The captain seems to have been conscious through all of this. Maybe he'll know something? Mocha follows the piano lady and finds Augustus, watching in horror and despair over his ship's demise. Piano Lady: Augustus, you're too close to the fire! Please, step back! Augustus: ... The beautiful S.S. Oceana is done for. My prized possession. She won't make it to her destination, after all this time. Piano Lady: The ship can be replaced! What can't be replaced are the lives still strewn about the ship! Look, Mocha survived the blast, didn't she? Augustus turns to see Mocha safe and sound, he smiled, it eased his sorrows knowing his friend's daughter is safe. Piano Lady: You've been conscious for this entire ordeal. Do you know where Mocha's sister and mother is? Augustus: I'm afraid I haven't seen your sister, but after the explosion, Nancy jumped down below in pursuit of the assailant that destroyed this ship. Piano Lady: So she's down there then? That's no good. As the Wigglytuff walks over to Augustus, Mocha stares down at the giant hole. As scared as she is now, her mother is down there. She couldn't leave her to get caught by those Deoxys or the terrorists who destroyed the ship. She took a few steps back and took a deep breath. Piano Lady: C'mon Augustus. We need to get off this thing. If we work together we can- MOCHA! But it was too late, Mocha has already jumped down the hole. Just as the piano lady and Augustus went to go after her, they stopped after they heard a groan coming from the broken tables on the left side of the room. They rushed over to help whoever was under the debris. Mocha lands in the floor below the banquet hall. She rushes down the stairs and is stopped in her tracks to see a Barbaracle in a dark suit burst out of the ship floor as well as a pink and white Gothitelle. The Barbaracle retreats as the Gothitelle maniacally cackles. Quinn: You can't run away from me! She fires a blast of Psychic energy and chases after the Barbaracle. Mocha bolts downstairs and into Cargo Hold to find Nancy and her partner, Sylveon fighting a female Starmie wearing sunglasses Nancy: I've had about enough of this. No more running around! What are you doing, and why?! Starmie: Perhaps you should be less concerned about me, and more concerned about our guest that just joined us. N: What? Nancy slowly turns around to see Mocha. N: Mocha... But... What are you doing here? I thought Crescent...? She was supposed to send you somewhere safe. Starmie: Sorry, safety is long gone for both of you. For now, we're going to go ahead and take our target. You. N: ...Me? Starmie: That's right. Did you think our target was Mocha or something? N: ... Starmie: Anyway, I was only going after you, but since both of you decided to just deliver yourselves to me... I'll be happy to take you back to HQ on silver platters. The Starmie's gem flashes, summoning two of the dark eyed Deoxys that Mocha saw before, making them corner Nancy and her partner. Starmie: Now do you understand? N: There isn't any future for this ship, or for anyone else you've put through this... Starmie: Glad you see things my way. Nancy: But I will create hope for at least one person. Mocha: ...? Nancy: Mocha... I know that we've been distant, but know that I only want you to be happy. And while it hasn't been for a long time, I was glad to be able to share time with you and Sally on this ship. I will hold her off for as long as I can, but I want you to run. Even on a place as confined as this vessel, you must run anyway. Even in the times where a future seems impossible, you must keep on! For it is through that pursuit of hope, that opportunity shines through. And wherever you end up... Find new friends. New opportunities, new love. Know that no matter where you are, of what you're doing... I'm looking upon you. Smiling. Protecting. That's my love for you, Mocha. A mother's love. Tears start streaming down Mocha's eyes, she is lost for words on the speech her mother gave to her. Mocha: Mom... Nancy: Go, my child. Run. Mocha nods, and runs as fast as her legs could take her, jumping over holes and dodging debris, she is then stopped in her tracks by a Deoxys. She steps back from the legendary, thinking about how to get through it, until a piano comes falling down. The sounds of several piano keys discordantly comes crashing down, crushing the Deoxys. Sally: HA! We... we got him! Mocha's ear perked up, she could hear her sister, out of breath from pushing the piano. Mocha: Sally?! Sally: Don't worry 'bout me, Mocha, just get outta here! Or that little rescue that me and the pianist did would be for nothing! Mocha: But- Sally: Hey, you'll be okay, sis. Just get out of here... For the rest of us. Mocha nods, jumps over the fallen piano and makes her way to the back deck. She looked around to see if any life boats were around, until she was knocked over by a claw. Mocha: AGH! She fell to the wooden floor, injured by the brute force of the attack. A Barbaracle stands behind her, and the Starmie that she saw a while ago teleports in front of her. Starmie: It's over. You have nowhere else to go. Your mother made a heartfelt speech, but this is the real world. Mocha groans in pain, she tried to move, but she was far too injured by the Barbaracle's attack to even move. She closed her eyes and accepted her fate until a bird-like Pokemon zooms by, distracting the Pokemon surrounding her. Starmie: Huh? ???: Don't worry, I got you! The bird-like Pokemon swoops in and grabs Mocha, flying away from the ship. Barbaracle: What in the...?! What just happened?! Starmie: ... Nothing in particular. She got away, despite what I said. We ARE in the real world... And the real world is full of unexpected occurences. Leave her, we'll see Mocha again. For now we need to abandon ship. Barbaracle: Aye. End of Prologue So that was the Prologue! Next time Mocha will enter Gearen City and probably make some friends down there! But I'll be away on holiday for a while, so I'll see you next time!
  10. Wanted to give fanfiction making a try, so I'm doing one for my V13 Pokemon Rejuvenation run. I just need to let you guys know a few things before we get right to it. While there will be Pokemon who will die on my team, this run isn't a Nuzlocke, these deaths will happen for story purposes. This story takes place in a realm similar to the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon universe, meaning characters will be Pokemon instead of humans, so there will be some small changes here and there to the story. There WILL be major spoilers, keep that in mind if you just started your Rejuv playthrough. Prologue: The Dream ???: Can you tell me the story about the Zorua and Pangoro again, Mommy? A young voice asks in the pitch black darkness, another voice, sounding old and motherly replies; Motherly Voice: Haha, all right, I will. The older voice tells the younger voice a children's story about a mischievous Zorua and a powerful Pangoro fighting over a rare, coveted golden apple. The battle lasted for many hours, both of them being evenly matched with no victor. The fox and panda became the best of friends, they travelled the world, overcame hardships and went on thrilling adventures. One day, the Zorua went too far, he planned a devious prank on the Pangoro. The mother mimicked what she imagined the Zorua sounded like and cackled, Motherly Voice: "I shall transform into Pangoro's fallen mother. That would surely give him a spook!", Zorua said. "It'll be my best prank yet!", Zorua said. The older voice continued the story, the Pangoro left to find food, and Zorua put his malicious plan into action. Pangoro came home to see his deceased mother and was struck with a mixture of emotions. He dropped his collection of food to the ground, and in that collection of food was... Younger Voice: A golden apple! Motherly Voice: Haha, yes. That's right. A golden apple. Zorua saw the apple and transformed into his normal state he looked down at the food and said... Motherly Voice: "Hey! Where did you find this golden apple? It looks fresh and incredibly delicious!" Pangoro didn't reply, Zorua was only met with a face filled with fury, sadness and most importantly, disappointment. Zorua tried to apologized to Pangoro, but to no avail, Pangoro fled deep into the forest. Zorua, filled with worry, ran after Pangoro, but he was nowhere to be seen. Zorua repelled Pangoro with his own selfishness, becoming lonely once more. The sound of a book closing reveals a sleeping Stufful. Motherly Voice: Sleep tight, Maria. The darkness was replaced with a vibrant, white bedroom, the Stufful named Maria lets out a big yawn and wakes up from her slumber. Maria: Morning already? Better get up! Maria hops out of bed, bright-eyed and ready to start the day, she runs down the stairs to see her mother, a Bewear, getting breakfast ready. Maria: Mommy, I'm up! I'm up! Mother: Ah, good morning, Maria! Did you sleep well? I'm preparing breakfast right now. Do you mind fetching your father? He's working in his study. Don't take too long! I don't want his food to get cold! Maria: You can count on me, Mommy! Maria prances over to where her father, a Lucario, was. He is focused on a desk filled with books and papers. Maria calls her dad, who lifts his head up from the book he's reading. Father: Ah, Marian- ... Maria. How are you doing? Maria: Mom said breakfast is ready so get your butt out of this room and have good food! Father: I do love your mother's cooking. All right, I'll be out in a few moments. Go tell your mother that, y'hear? Maria nods and heads back to her mother and tells her the good news. Maria's mother tells her to go upstairs and freshen up. Maria does what she's told until... CRASH! Maria: ...What was that...? Maria heard another noise, like someone falling to the ground. Maria: Mom?! ... Mommy? Maria, struck with fear, slowly goes down the stairs, her paws shaking with each step. She sees a Pokemon, she couldn't tell what it was, she was only young. It's face was covered by a mask and it was wearing a strange black and red suit. Maria: Who... are you? ???: How many times? Maria: Wh-what...? ???: How many times are you going to make this little girl suffer? How many times are you willing to put her through this chaos?! Maria: I... I'm... I don't know what you're talking about... ???: I'm not talking to you. Maria: O-oh... well, do... you know where my parents are? ???: ... They're downstairs. Maria: Oh...! Okay, well... I'm going to go to them now. Maria was about to head to the room left of her Father's, until the mysterious Pokemon said, ???: Maria. Maria: Yes...? ???: No matter what happens. Don't you dare lost hope. Don't lose who you are and don't you dare forget what's about to happen. You understand? Maria: Y-Yes, I understand! ???: Good. Go to them now. They're waiting. Maria rushes downstairs and finds a room where her mother laid on a strange looking wooden altar. She wasn't moving at all. Her father stood behind it, holding a strange book. Maria: Mommy! She rushes over to the table and tries to wake up her mother, but she never moved, she just laid lifeless on the strange altar. Maria: What are you doing to mommy?! Mommy wake up! Why won't you say anything to me?! ???: Marianette, your father wishes to see you now. Maria: What... are you talking about? The word was repeated again and again, a bright light surrounded the room, changing it to a odd room, almost like something you'd see in a temple, Maria is seen looking into a mirror, a Gothorita dressed in a maid outfit stands behind her. Maria: What?! Maid: Now, for the fifth time, Marianette... Your father is waiting for you in the East Wing. You're making him wait longer than he has time for. So get to it. Marianette: Wh-what? What am I doing here again? Maid: I'm not going to ask again, come here. Marianette tries to run, but the Gothorita picks Marianette up with her psychic powers carrying her to the East Wing. She takes her to a place where a few other Psychic and Dark types gathered, watching a Espeon standing on the same altar where her mother laid. A Lucario in a dark cloak stands Marianette: Where's my mom?! ???: Mommy is sleeping with our lord now, Marianette. Marianette: Stop calling me Marianette! It's Maria! ???: What is this disrespect? Your name is no longer Maria. Now, as I was initially planning to do- Espeon Maid: No need for explanation, sir. Demonstration may be the key to this girl's mind. ???: Hmph, very well. The cloaked Lucario chants some odd words, setting the Espeon ablaze with a red flame and making her disappear into nothing. Marianette is struck with intense fear and dread, tears starting to form. ???: She's gone now, Marianette. She is with the lord now. She won't need to suffer the calamity that soon befalls this earth. Marianette, it's your turn now. The Gothorita holding her pushes her onto the altar using her psychic powers holding her in place. Marianette: No, NO! LET GO OF ME! ???: Go with dignity, Marianette. Despite Marianette's kicking and screaming, they did not let her go, the Lucario chants the words he used on the Espeon. Marianette: Someone, please don't let him do this to me! Someone please help me! Anyone! MOMMY! A Scorbunny screams and wakes up in cold sweat, looking around. Her sister, a Mawile was in deep slumber in her own bed. She sat on her bed wondering what on earth she just saw, it may of just been a dream, but she was incredibly worried, especially for that Stufful and her mother. She laid in her bed, constantly thinking about what she witnessed in her dreams. Sooooo that's the first part of the prologue, next time, our Scorbunny friend will be boarding the ship to her new adventure! See you next time!
  11. Part 6: While grinding up the team, Ducklett hatches from it's egg. Grace (Ducklett) - Ability: Hydration, Relaxed Nature We also go up against two Meteor grunts impersonating the Daycare Couple, we ended up losing Jemima (Espurr) to Crabrawler's Pursuit, but we did end up getting a Seel egg, a Spoink and a Happiny out of it. R.I.P Jemima (Espurr) Lvl 19 Wilbur (Spoink) - Ability: Thick Fat, Timid Nature Joy (Happiny) - Ability: Natural Cure, Naive Nature After grinding up the team and getting Wilbur and Grace up to speed, we go up against Fern, who blocks the way to Florinia's arena. I got really unlucky as Big Boi (Grotle) got flinched a lot by Sandile, while I did try to recover from my bad luck, I ended up losing my team to Fern. I would use the Pokemon in my PC to replace my dead team, but most are them aren't good against Grass types, so I'll have to forfeit this challenge. Still, I did pretty good, it was only because I got really unlucky that I lost this challenge.
  12. Part 5: Too Cool for School Arriving in Coral Ward, I pick up a few event mon. Grizabella (Skitty) - Ability: Wonder Skin, Bold Nature Samba (Lotad) - Ability: Own Tempo, Careful Nature We come across Amaria as well as Cain who rescues a Popplio stranded in toxic water, and challenges us to a battle. Vulcan (Numel) gets rid of Grimer with two Magnitude 6s, Big Boi (Grotle) takes out Popplio with one Razor Leaf, Butterfly (Finneon) defeats Cubone with two Water Guns and Vulcan finishes Nidorino with one Magnitude 8. Heading back to Obsidia, I receive my TMX for Cut and face ZEL. They send their PULSE Tangrowth on me so I used Devito (Trubbish) to lower their Sp. Def with 2 Acid Sprays, then I switch to Vulcan to try to take it out with Flame Burst, I managed to get two in, but Tangrowth takes a large chunk of his health with Mega Drain then finishes him with Vine Whip. I switched to Minty (Vanillite) to get rid of it's last bit of health with Icy Wind. I wasn't expecting to get a low roll on the second Flame Burst, but at least Tangrowth is taken down. R.I.P Vulcan (Numel) Lvl 20 While training up the team, Romeo gets dies to a critical hit Assurance from a wild Koffing. R.I.P Romeo (Swoobat) Lvl 18 But things turn out alright, Samba evolved into a Lombre, Yoomtah (Igglybuff) evolves into Jigglypuff, Jemima (Espurr) fills in for Romeo, and we also get some new members for the team. Jennyanydots (Glameow) - Ability: Keen Eye, Careful Nature Sludge (Grimer) - Ability: Sticky Hold, Adamant Nature (I wanted to wait until I get the Good Rod to try for a Skrelp, but Devito died to a Ponyta while I was healing up Angery (Mankey)) R.I.P Devito (Trubbish) Lvl 18 Entering the Onyx Ward School, Fern, being the asshole that he is, locks up the fast route to Florinia's arena, meaning we have to take the long way round, jokes on him, though, as not only has my team have gotten stronger, but I also got a Coin Case, which I used to get a Slugma from the Casino! Ravioli (Slugma) - Ability: Flame Body, Naughty Nature (I was going to get a Nidoran for Sheer Power Nidoking, but I really needed a Fire type.) I'm going to stop the post right here, I said that I would battle Fern this post, but a lot happened today, so I had to shorten it. Next post will actually be the battle against Fern and doing some events and grinding around Obsidia. I screwed up a lot here with 3 deaths this post, but at least I came around near the end.
  13. Part 4: Before entering Obsidia, I decided to do a bit of training to get some of my low leveled Pokemon caught up with the rest of the team. Romeo (Woobat) evolved into a Swoobat, but unfortunately, Marty (Blitzle) dies to a Whismur using Echoed Voice while I was training Yoomtah (Igglybuff) up on the trainers on Opal Bridge. R.I.P Marty (Blitzle) Lvl 17 When arriving in Obsidia, I pick up a few new members in the Sweet Kiss Candy Shop. Minty (Vanillite) - Ability: Snow Cloak, Jolly Nature Floss (Swirlix) - Ability: Sweet Veil, Rash Nature On the way to the Slums, Victoria warns me of the dangers in there and tests me in a battle. Big Boi gets rid her Ralts and Pichu, but when Torracat came in I switched to Roxy (Onix) to slow it down with Rock Tomb, Roxy manages to survive a Double Kick and land two Rock Tombs before she died, I sent out Vulcan (Numel) and finish her Torracat off with Magnitude. R.I.P Roxy (Onix) Lvl 17 Entering the Slums, I encounter a Mankey and a Shiny Pidove, as well as a Ducklett egg. Angery (Mankey) - Ability: Anger Point, Lax Nature Raptor (Shiny Pidove) - Ability: Big Pecks, Lax Nature While training up the newcomers, Raptor dies to a wild Trubbish's Acid Spray. R.I.P Raptor (Pidove) Lvl 15 Just when we were going to exit the Slums, we were ambushed by wild Scraggy and Scrafty. We were able to survive the ambush with Floss's Fairy Wind and Angery's Karate Chop, but we ended up losing Marigold (Budew). R.I.P Marigold (Budew) Lvl 17 Next post will be Coral Ward, our first PULSE battle and our second battle against Fern. We lost 4 Pokemon this post, either as a sacrifice or by accident. Let hope what happens next post doesn't screw me over.
  14. Part 3: Three Cheers for Big Boi Starting off, I decided to grind some of my Pokemon at the Grand Hall and get Marigold (Budew) and Licorice (Tynamo) up to speed for more resistance against Electric type moves, I also evolved Big Boi into a Grotle so it can take a few more hits from Julia's team, especially against her Voltorb and Electrode's Sonic Boom. I also caught a Shiny Goldeen in Lower Peridot Ward. Peppermint (Shiny Goldeen) - Ability: Lightning Rod, Quirky Nature Next up was the first Gym Leader of Reborn, Julia. Her Oricorio and Electrode might make things a bit hard, but I've got plenty of Pokemon who can resist Electric type moves. The Pokemon I used for this battle was: Devito (Trubbish) Lvl 15 - For Toxic Spikes setup on Minun. Licorice (Tynamo) Lvl 15 - For resistance agaisnt electric type moves. Ringtone (Kricketune) Lvl 15 - Technician Fury Cutter packs a punch. Marty (Blitzle) Lvl 16 - Same as Licorice, also to go against Oricorio Marigold (Budew) Lvl 16 - Same as Licorice, also to get rid of Alolan Geodude Big Boi (Grotle) Lvl 18 - To go against Electrode Devito sets up Toxic Spikes on Minun and Minun uses Charge Beam, boosting it's Sp. Atk, I switched to Ringtone hoping it would use Encore, Minun uses Charge Beam again and boost up Sp Atk again. Ringtone survives a hit, I try to use Struggle Bug hoping to outspeed, Minun outspeeds with another Charge Beam, Ringtone dies. I send out Big Boi to tank a hit from Charge Beam and use Razor Leaf, Minun dies. I keep Big Boi in as Julia sends out Voltorb, Voltorb misses Sonic Boom and Big Boi one shots Voltorb with Razor Leaf. I switch out Big Boi for Marty as Julia sends out Oricorio. Marty fires three Electric Terrain boosted Shock Wave to get rid of Oricorio. Marigold comes in to get rid of Geodude with Mega Drain. Big Boi comes in again to get rid of Plusle with Razor Leaf. I switch into Marty to heal up Big Boi as Julia sends out Electrode. I switch back to Big Boi to tank a Charge Beam from Electrode and take it out with two Razor Leafs and get my first gym badge, it ended up with me making a stupid move with killing Ringtone at the start, but at least things didn't end up too bad. R.I.P Ringtone (Kricketune) Lvl 15 But with every down there is a up, as two new members join the gang. Roxy (Onix) - Ability: Sturdy, Quiet Nature Vulcan (Numel) - Ability: Own Tempo, Lonely Nature Next post will be Obsidia Ward and the Slums. We got our first death, but we'll be getting more than that delving deeper into the game.
  15. Part 2: Starting off, I capture a few more event mons as well as a Shiny Purrloin while grinding my team up in the alleyways in Upper Peridot Ward. Marty (Blitzle) - Ability: Sap Sipper, Bold Nature (Sap Sipper could come in handy in Forest fields, so I'm fine with this.) Yoomtah (Igglybuff) - Ability: Competitive, Jolly Nature Mungojerrie (Shiny Purrloin) - Ability: Limber, Timid Nature Heading over to Blacksteam Factory, I met Fern, who challenges me to a battle. Romeo (Woobat) takes down Budew with two Confusions, Big Boi (Turtwig) one shots Sandile with Razor Leaf and Devito (Trubbish) gets rid of Rowlet with three Acid Sprays. Next I had to take care of some problems in the Mosswater Factory, Flying and Water types are not going to be good in this so I left Romeo out. I decided to enter the Factory with: Ringtone (Kricketune) Lvl 14 Mungojerrie (Purrloin) Lvl 13 Devito (Trubbish) Lvl 13 Big Boi (Turtwig) Lvl 14 Marty (Blitzle) Lvl 15 Jemima (Espurr) Lvl 14 Team Meteor wasn't much of a problem for me, I got a bit scared when Marty almost died to Stunky's Fury Swipes, but things turned out alright. Aster and Eclipse were a bit scary too, I managed to get both their Rockruff down to yellow with Big Boi's Razor Leaf, but when they took out Fern's Budew, making Fern send out Sandile, I got worried they were going to go after Big Boi, after some smart switching around while Fern's Sandile gets rid of one of the Rockruff, I was able to defeat them without any unfortunate deaths. Next post will be my Gym Battle against Julia, I'll do some grinding and sort out a team to deal with Julia.
  16. Part 1: And so it begins... After luckily escaping and surviving from a train crash, I head down to the Grand Hall to get my starter for this run. Turtwig is apparently good for this run, with it's Hidden Ability Shell Armor, which protects it from crits, also it get Earthquake pretty early. I chose my Turtwig and named him Big Boi. Big Boi (Turtwig) - Ability: Shell Armor, Naive Nature. (Not bad, managed to get Shell Armor, kinda sucks about the speed, tho.) So I beat up Cain's Nidoran and Victoria's Litten, receive my Pokeballs and went to get my first encounter, which turns out to be a normal Rattata. Mad Rat (Rattata) - Ability: Guts, Hasty Nature (Guts could make this Rattata pretty good to have as a teammate, shame about not getting Bidoof, but ah well.) While trying to rescue Pachirisu from the jerks at Opal Ward, Mad Rat almost dies to Trubbish's Aftermath, but we managed to beat them and save the event Pachirisu. Bolt (Pachirisu) - Ability: Pickup, Hasty Nature. (Managed to get what I was looking for, a pickup mon to get items for major battles.) When arriving in Lower Peridot Ward, I catched some event mons and fished myself up a Finneon Jemima (Espurr (female)) - Ability: Infiltrator, Impish Nature (I can fix the ability later, so I'm not all that worried.) Butterfly (Finneon) - Ability: Swift Swim, Mild Nature (Was hoping for a Goldeen, but I could work with this.) Ringtone (Kricketot) - Ability: Run Away, Quirky Nature (Managed to get lucky with this one, Run Away becomes Technician when Kricketot evolves.) Dreadlocks (Panpour) - Ability: Torrent, Bold Nature Licorice (Tynamo) - Ability: Levitate, Naive Nature I also went to the Underground Railnet and got a Woobat. Romeo (Woobat) - Ability: Klutz, Brave Nature (Woobat might come in handy up against Kiki, might want to change the ability, tho.) Up in Upper Peridot Ward, I got the Ability Capsule that was next to Mosswater Factory and gave Jemima Own Tempo. Ringtone evolved into Kricketune and I caught a Trubbish and a few more event mons. Devito (Trubbish) - Ability: Stench, Quiet Nature (I was hoping to get a nice bulky Toxic Spike setter for the battles up ahead, Stench could be handy, but I might change it.) Bubbles (Surskit) - Ability: Swift Swim, Docile Nature Marigold (Budew) - Ability: Natural Cure, Timid (Might change it's Ability so it can get Technician as a Roserade.) I'll stop right here, but next time, I'll grind up the team, defeat Fern and take care of the problems in Mosswater Factory, no unfortunate deaths so far, but knowing this game, I'll have to prepare for the worst.
  17. Hi everyone! I've been playing Reborn a lot and I've been thinking of doing a Pokemon Reborn Nuzlocke. I'm aware of how hard this challenge is gonna be so I set up some rules. Standard rules apply, of course. (1 Pokemon per area, pokemon dies when it faints.) Dupes clause will be in affect here. Because of shinies being a lot easier to encounter, 1 shiny per area I'm allowed to use static encounters (weather events, trade mons, gift mons), they won't count as a encounter in the area. If I run out of Pokemon in my party and PC, the game is over. I'll post now and then to get you guys up to speed about my progress.
  18. okay, I'm waiting for the request again Edited: Thank you very much!
  19. Thank you! My username is CrystalXGlaceon.
  20. Hi, does anyone have a Tynamo on their hands? I'm thinking of adding one to my team but waiting for a thunderstorm ingame may take a while.
