(Poke) Viridian Forest - Another Path

[Candescence]

Keith spun the Pokeball in his hand, a smirk on his face as he entered the Viridian Forest alongside Ashe, Rush, Junior and Koemon. "Good grief, so many new trainers... Talk about crazy awesome."


"I know." Ashe nodded, as she walked along. "Still... This forest might have some neat Pokemon we can catch, or just train our Pokemon."


"Bug Pokemon, I think. Neat little things!" Rush grinned.

@junior@

"I know! They're pretty cool, too!" Junior said with a laugh. "I heard the nurse talk about how they're some of the Pokémon who evolve the quickest! And with my new partners, Stringer and Stinger, I should be just fine!"

@koemon@

"And if not, Koe will help Junior!" Koemon laughed.

[Candescence]

"Eh, sometimes, the best evolutions are the ones that come last. Angemon and MagnaAngemon, anyone?"


"In short, TK and Kari have it good."


Keith thought for a minute, as they walked. "Maybe... Just maybe... We might be to pass through this forest without encountering a wild Pokemon or a trainer..."

Of course, he was deliberately trying to tempt fate, for the sake of having something to train Growl on.

If they were to travel down the path between the thick trees, that even covered the sky, they would notice a young girl coming down with a small giraffe-like Pokemon.



When the two glanced ahead, they all stopped and gawked at the military lizard. "Wow!!"

@pidgeotto@ It felt like the wind streaking over their heads, for a large bird flew over, making a soft landing on some grass beside the trees. [rand=25895337822361153195449239558948774609644968339099429993212161621186]

@junior@

Seeing the bird appear in front of him, Junior blinked. "Woah! That's a huge bird!" he said, as he glanced at Koemon. "Do you know what kind of bird it is?"

@koemon@

"Koe thinks that looks like Blue's Pidgeot..." Koemon began, as he scratched his head. "...but it's smaller, so it's the stage between Pidgey and Pidgeot, Koe thinks."

@junior@

"Woah..." While he was awed by the sight of the bird, Junior was a bit worried; both Stringer and Stinger were Bug-Pokémon, and from what he knew, Bird Pokémon could easily defeat Bug-Pokémon.

On the other hand, if he tried using Koemon to weaken the bird, he could end up knocking the bird out right away, without any chance for the two to catch it. "Argh, choices..."

@koemon@

"...maybe you could try and poison it?"

@junior@

"...maybe I could try and poison it!" Junior said, as he took out a Poké Ball. "Stinger, I'm really sorry if this ends up knocking you out... but we got to try!" Then, he threw out the Poké Ball...

@weedle@

...letting out the Pokémon in question. "Weedle..."

[Candescence]

Rush froze, and immediately dashed behind Keith. "Oh, crud, I'm attracting attention! HIDE ME!"


"Oh, for the love of..." Keith shoved Rush out. "She's already seen you, doofus."


Ashe paid the pair no mind, as she approached the girl. "Hiya! I'm Ashe. And... Hey, is that a Girafarig?" She petted the girraffe-like Pokemon. "Nice!"


"Ah... And I'm Keith, this is Rush." Keith introduced himself.

"Geo?!" just seeing that yellow worm drove its hunger to the max; its tongue licking its beak. With that, the Pidgeotto shot right at it.

[dice=9]

"Aw thanks! I'm Cherrie, and this is my Pokemon, Nini."

@girafarig@ Happily, the Girafarig made a little growl.

Blinking at the lizard solider. "Wow, a talking Pokemon? Gee, I only hear-" Gasping, her eyes beamed at the two. "Are you guys the DigiDestined?! No way!!!"[rand=9263297541925877044201672380114727101672784171651441669373381]

[Candescence]

"Yeeeeeeeep."


"And I'm a Digimon!" Rush grinned. "The name's Rush, I'm a Commandramon!"


"And... Ashe and I have decided to become trainers as well!"

[YolkaEd]

@junior@

"Aah! Stinger, look-"

@koemon@

"Koe help out!"

Koemon (Level 50)

[dice=54]

Before Pidgeotto could reach Stinger, Koemon got in the bird's way, taking the attack without any damage done. "Funny bird..."

@junior@

"...um... thanks, Koemon!" Junior said, as he glanced at the bird. Wait... idea! At that point, he threw out his other Poké Ball...

@caterpie@

Which let out his other Pokémon. "Pie!"

@junior@

"Okay... Stringer, use String Shot, and Stinger, use Poison Sting!"

@caterpie@
Caterpie (Lv 5)
HP: 19

Nodding, Stringer shout out a long thread of silk at the bird, intending to slow it down.

String Shot: This is a non-damaging move. If the move hits, the foe loses one point in Speed.

Weedle (Lv 5)

Stinger, in the meantime, lunged himself at the Pidgeotto, intending to jab his needle into it.

---

Poison Sting: If this move hits, the foe rolls a ten-sided die. If it lands on 3 or lower, the foe is poisoned.

@pidgeotto@ "CAW?!" it cried, wondering what that green 'Aipom' came from. Its shock distracted it long enough for the webs to gum its body.

(-1 Speed)


(Speed & Def)
[dice=10][dice=8]
And it the webs slowed it long enough for Weedle to stab on its wing. "CAAAAWWW!!!"

[dice=10] (Poison: Failed)


While the poison didn't go through, the bug sure made the Pidgeotto furious. Flapping its wings at Weedle's direction, it kicked up a fierce Gust of wind.

[dice=6] (Flying)

---

"Wow!! Does that mean you're gonna use your Digimon for the Pokemon League?!" Cherrie asked with total interest. [rand=15276333030768718658097464252320185746443853942486436459327184576]

[YolkaEd]

@weedle@

[dice=5]

"Weedle!" Thankfully, the bug Pokémon was quicker, as he leapt away from the gust.

@junior@

"Alright, Stinger! Use Poison Sting again!"

@weedle@

"Wee!" Stinger nodded, before rushing at Pidgeotto again, jabbing his needle at him several times, with the intention of poisoning the .

[dice=9][dice=9][dice=9]

@junior@

"And Stringer! Use String Shot!"

@caterpie@

"Pie!" Once more, a line of silk string was shot out from the caterpillar, aimed at the bird.

[Candescence]

They all promptly facefaulted.


Rush got up, noting, "Uh, not really. I'm just coming along for the ride since I'm Keith's partner..."


"And I don't have a 'partner' Digimon, nor would entering myself into battles make any sense..." Ashe shrugged.


"In short, we've got our own Pokemon we can use in battles."

@pidgeotto@ "CAAW!!!" Trying to fly off, the stingers indeed pricked the bird on the chest.

HP: 19

[dice=10] (Poison: Fail)


[dice=10]
@pidgeotto@ Shaking it off, Pidgeotto climbed to the air before the webs reached. It then dived right at Weedle in a Tackle attack.

[dice=9]

---

"Awww!" she whined, wanting to see how powerful Digimon are. It also sound like they won't battle her with their Digimon. Oh well...

"Hey! One of you wanna battle?"[rand=5177234634190055840611475749128395727041031669075922889916401078]

@weedle@

[dice=6]

HP: 17

"Weedle!" Stinger cried, as he was knocked back by the tackle.

@junior@

"Stinger! Are you alright?"

@weedle@

"...Weedle!" Stinger nodded, as he glared at Pidgeotto.

@junior@

"Alright! Come on, do the same strategy; Poison Sting and String Shot!"

@weedle@

Nodding, Stinger went at Pidgeotto again with his needle.

[dice=9][dice=9][dice=9]

@caterpie@

And Stringer shot some more web at the bird in order to slow it down.

[dice=5][rand=889585745840781481002103437570576523678325237658856064243644933]

[Candescence]

Ashe and Keith looked at each other, and agreed, "Coin toss."


Keith pulled out a dollar out of his wallet, and said, "I call heads." He then flicked the coin up into the air...

(1 = heads, 2 = tails)

[dice=2]

The coin landed on tails, and Keith sighed. "Okay, it's your show, Ashe."


Ashe stepped forward, smiling, as she called out a Pokemon. "Alright, come on out, Pooch!"


Ashe's Poochyena appeared. It became quickly aware that it was called out to battle, and got into a fighting stance accordingly.

"CAAAW!!!!" Once again, the Weedle pricked the large bird like a needle, this time crippling it to the ground.

HP: 9

[dice=10] (Poison: Failed)


[dice=10]
But it didn't mean it stunned it enough for Caterpie to web it. Even on its talons, Pidgeotto was still quick enough to leap back. Flapping its wings, it again tried to blow them away with a Gust.

[dice=6] (All/Flying)

"Go for it, Nini!" Cherrie ordered, pointing at the canine.

@girafarig@ The giraffe Pokemon trotted in front of its trainer, stomping the ground with its hooves.

@caterpie@

(Speed)
[dice=6]

"PIE!" Thankfully, Stringer was quick enough to outrun the gust.

@weedle@

(Speed)
[dice=5]

As was Stinger, who landed next to Stringer.

@koemon@

(S. Defense)
[dice=52]

Koemon, on the other hand, just took the gust like a relaxing breeze. "Breezy..."

@junior@

"Alright!" Junior laughed, as he took out a Poké Ball. "Just one more push, and we got him! Stringer, Tackle! Stinger, Poison Sting!"

@caterpie@

"PIE!" While Stringer tried to tackle the Pidgeotto...

[dice=7]

@weedle@

"WEE!" Stinger tried stinging it once more.

[dice=9][rand=370790348707311116991725438915073344559586858873825489650225941757]

Quickly, Pidgeotto leaped out of Caterpie's way, but...

BAM!!!

"CAWWW!!!" A little cannonball, that was Weedle, pinned Pidgeotto down on the ground.

@junior@

"Alright, here we go!" Junior called, as he hurled his Poké Ball towards the Pidgeotto. "You're mine!"

[dice=7]
@pidgeotto@ Bouncing off the bird, the poke-ball hung in mid-air, popping open to draw the bird in like energy. Closed, the poke-ball dropped on the ground, sealing Pidgeotto for good.

Weedle: 10/15 EXP left

Caterpie: 10/15 EXP left

Koemon gains 5 EXP for stepping in.[rand=212068866905408381236225224690158417918029344250024877464890249342]
