It was the afternoon already, there hadn't been any signs of life other than he and his Deino. Looking at Ares the Deino, Asher saw how she frolicked about ahead of him. He would watch Ares very closely as he tried to make sure that she wouldn't leave his sight. Directing his gaze toward the sky, he'd whisper, "...Take away, and do for me..." Ares the Deino would stop for a moment. She'd turn around to look at her trainer for she couldn't hear his footsteps anymore.
Asher stared toward the sky for a moment as the sun had begun to set. It was nice, watching the sky fall silently amongst the clouds, he wondered though, what was it like to be a cloud? If he were a bird or a dragon Asher would fly through the sky as if he had not a single care in the world. No worries. No troubles. Just...nothing, pokemon were truly lucky beings. Snapping out of his daze all of a sudden, he felt Ares pushing his legs from behind. It was her way of signaling Asher to come back down from the clouds, he'd sigh and say, "Let's keep moving, Ares." He wanted to see if they would run into something sooner or later, but for now there was nothing.

Little sparks of electricity left the gliding emolga's cheeks, creating little muted flashes of light against the steadily increasing dark. The poor visibility though made gliding quite hard and it was difficult to judge distances; he was no nocturnal pokémon but just a diurnal once looking for a cozy crook in a tree to sleep in.
"E-Em!" He stuttered in surprise when he slipped off the tree branch he'd tried to land on. The flying electric type fell and fell and fell... right on the head of a passing trainer!
Casually strolling through the forest could lead to a discovery of new findings. Asher hadn't expected to have a run in with said new findings so easily.
Entering Emolga, Asher would come to a stop in his track as an Emolga would fall atop of his head. He looked up to grab the flying squirrel by his neck and held him within his left hand. Staring at the animal made Asher question as to what it had been doing, being the fact that it wasn't a dragon, he had no use for it and wanted to toss it aside––but wait, it could hold some value. The Emolga held some sort of sentimental value to where he could use it within Pokemon Contest, "Fly," whispered Asher. He would toss the Emolga into the air at least ten feet away, wanting to see if it knew how to use it's wings.
"Ares, if it doesn't fly, Dragon Rage," he informed the Deino. Without looking at his master he understood the command. Asher simply watched awaiting to see if it knew how to fly while Ares the Deino had begun to build up roaring flame within it's stomach.
While waiting, Asher would slide out a small ball capsule from the wrist of his left sleeve, holding it for later usage. Let's just see if it were willing to fly as commanded.

The young emolga made a series of startled chittering noises as he was gripped by the scruff of his neck and unceremoniously thrown back up into the air. F-Fly? He'd been ordered to fly? But! But he couldn't fly! He could only glide!
"E-Emolga!"
He struggled to right himself in the air, his arms flapping about madly. He didn't like this human... no, no, no... not at all. Or that scary dragon neither! The emolga caught a gentle updrift once he finally levelled himself and, a little wobbly due to his fright, began to glide away!
Just as he thought. The Pokemon couldn't fly, shame. This was his first time encountering an Emolga so he wasn't familiar with their strange flight ability, but it seemed he was only able to glide rather than fly, barely anyways. It wasn't amusing for Asher to see it struggling midair, so he came to a decision to catch––but wait a minute...
It dared to try to run away right after disturbing Asher's peace? This was just not going to do. He wasn't going to give Ares the command to release hell's rage upon the poor pokemon, but such disrespect could not go unjustified. So before it could escape Asher gave the command. He would begin to sing:
Gatrandis babel ziggurat edenal Emustolronzen fine el balal zillz...
Ares knew the process of when conducting battle, the Harmonic Battle tactic. The Harmonic Battle tactic was something Asher created during his teen years in Sinnoh when performing in Contest. A Harmonic Battle tactic is a skill in which a trainer conduct's battle with their pokemon through singing an commands based on snaps, vocal notes, or a specific song. It's a personal usage for when in battle to showcase not his talent, but his skills as a Coordinator. Creativity one could say.
With just a snap of his Ares would release a pulsating, raging ball of blue flame toward the Emolga. Aiming to take out it's right flank so that it wouldn't be able to escape due to a substantial amount of damage dealt from said Dragon Rage. The real question was would the attack land? If not, they would continue to follow it in a chase where Ares was continually going to release a bombard of Dragon Rage toward the Emolga until caught if need, but if it were to get away then so be it.

As he tried in earnest to flee by gliding away, the emolga twisted his head around to watch the swell of draconic flames that were chasing after him. Panic gripped the small pokémon and he scrambled to perform a hasty aerial maneuver - a barrel roll - to evade the attack. But it just kept coming though and, soon enough, the emolga's efforts were proven to be in vain.
The dragon rage struck the electric type and down, down, down he went, his limp, unconscious body bouncing slightly once he came crashing down to the ground.
Emolga dodged dragon rage! Emolga was hit by dragon rage! Emolga fainted! Ares gains two levels! Capture the fainted emolga? Another pokémon?

That was it huh? I twent down without even putting up a fight. Asher would cease his singing, sighing at such a sight. He was going to mold that Pokemon into a soldier if it were the last thing he was going to do. Asher tossed his pokeball within a lazy manor, after enclosing the gaping distance between them, and attempted to capture the Emolga.
Once the Emolga was caught, he would be on his merry way, unless he were to encounter another Pokemon? Other than that. He was proud of Ares...for now.

Now where had that pesky bug gotten to...? The spearow hopped tirelessly around a bush, flapping his wings relentlessly and making the leaves rustle and shake. It suddenly came to a standstill though when he noticed the presence of a human and pokémon nearby.
What were they doing here? This was his little patch of territory!
The spearow took to the air, circling the dark-haired male and dragon from above, squawking shrilly and leering down at them both.
A wild spearow has appeared! Spearow is aggressive! Spearow used leer! Spearow used leer!

A Spearow was his next opponent? Such a cheap waste to use a ball capsule. Rather than catching the Pokemon, he rather test out Zeus the Emolga's new hand at battle. The Spearow wanted an air battle, correct? And since Ares couldn't fly, Zeus should try his hand.
"Don't lose," he whispered. Tossing the ball capsule into the air, he would catch it. Zeus had now been set free, flying about as he would swiftly land onto the ground and stood before Asher. Asher would point to the sky above and said, "Use Quick Attack to maneuver yourself behind the Spearow, don't let him out of yourself, and then use Thundershock." He guided the Emolga.
Zeus had his commands, and he needed to exact them. Using Deino's body as a way to push itself into the air, Asher didn't expect Zeus the Emolga to have done such a thing. He zipped within a zig zag motion, passing the Spearow in a breeze. Now having been atop of it's back Zeus would release a Thundershock from above, sending a jolt of electricity through the Spearow's body if it hadn't dodged or countered, which was possibly highly unlikely.
The leering may have worked upon Deino, but it didn't phase Asher what so ever. For now, he entrusted Zeus to complete the job.
