she exhaled, calming herself as she executed a few precise motions. cubone desired strength. strength led to survival. survival led to prosperity. she sought out a comfortable life, one where she did not have to live in fear. twirling her bone in her paw, the small pokemon inhaled deeply, allowing herself to focus. meditation tended to help her reach such a state - so she sat, head bowed and eyes sliding shut as the female slipped away from the surrounding world.
At the sight of the Cubone sitting around Sam's eyes would widen once again. A Cubone! Just like the Natu from earlier Cubone was just one of those pokemon that Sam had always wanted to have around on his team. This was turning out to be a pretty damn good day to find pokemon for the boy.
Already excited at the idea of capturing a Cubone Sam would dart his hand down, trying to find a pokeball. "Alright Thor, see that little one sitting on the ground? Yeah the one with the skull on its head. Yeah that one? Go tackle it." Sam said to the Electrike, who responded by quietly charging at the Cubone, planning to go for two powered up tackles.
her state of tranquility snapped away as soon as the canine's body made contact. and she, naturally, reacted in anger - eyes growing sharp as she detected the hound return for another round. with surprising ease, she danced away from the tackle - though she was a bit more sluggish then she'd like to admit.
"cubone!"
she waggled her bone, pausing briefly before springing forward, swinging her weapon at the offending mutt.
the wild cubone was hit by tackle! the wild cubone dodged tackle! the wild cubone used bone club!
Sam would bite down on his lip a bit as the Electrike missed the second tackle, he had a feeling at least one of the attacks would get dodged, or that they wouldn't do much. After all Cubone was still a ground type, one of the types that at least seemed like it wouldn't be phased as much by a little green dog lion thing charging into it.
Once the Cubone began to swing its bone down at the Electrike Sam would let go of his lip, calling out '"Thor thor thor, move move!" trying to hurry up and get the Electrike to move out the way, which luckily it would. Electrike would dart off to the side a bit, narrowly avoiding the Cubone's bone.
The boy knew bone club was a ground type attack, and might of been almost enough to finish his Electrike off already. Once he was out of the way Electrike would turn around and charge right back at Cubone, going for a couple more tackle attacks.wered up tackles.
cubone released a wail as she was struck not once, but twice. the canine's body transferred a terrible energy that coursed throughout her form and caused her to stand stiffly before her foe. panic wrapped around her mind as she realized she had been caught at a disadvantage, the agony rippling throughout her form confirming her worst fears. cubone hung on my a string, attempting to open her maw to release a terrible growl only to be struck by the static that left her vulnerable.
the wild cubone was hit by tackle! the wild cubone was hit by tackle! the wild cubone was paralyzed! the wild cubone attempted growl! the wild cubone failed to preform growl!
They were so close to defeating the Cubone at this point, one more hit should be able to do it. With that knowledge in mind Sam would reach down into his pocket, going to grab an empty pokeball ahead of time. "Keep it up Thor, almost there little dude!" Sam called out as a grin began to creep across his face. After Cubone he could keep moving on to Petalburg and heal up his Natu, and then ask the pokemon about Ai.
Find out if she was really out there somewhere still or not. After he said that the Electrike would once again charge in for two tackle attacks. This time going with two in case the Cubone managed to dodge out of the way of one of the two attacks.
the remainder of cubone's health was knocked away at that instant. her eyes squeezes shut as she struggled to remain conscious. but it was a wasted effort. blinking her eyes shut, she released a breath, her paw continuing to clutch onto her bone. it was a small comfort in such a time.
the wild cubone was hit by tackle! the wild cubone was hit by tackle! the wild cubone has fainted! capture? thor has gained a level!
Literally as soon as the last tackle struck Cubone and knocked it out Sam would throw the pokeball through the air trying to catch it already. Naturally since the Cubone was already fainted the pokemon wouldn't be able to fight back and would get sucked right into the pokeball! Once the Cubone was safely inside Sam would hurry over to retrieve the pokeball, pocketing it as soon at it was picked up.
"You did good Thor, real good, once I find a place to stay in the next town you'll get a treat alright!" Sam said with a grin which only caused the Electrike's tail to wag. After saying that he'd return Electrike to the ball and head on to the next town. Planning to heal his team in the center, find a place to stay for the night and then ask the Natu whether or not Ai was still out there and finally find out if his journey actually had any meaning to it.
the ball fidgeted. but only slightly. the capture proved successful in the end. cubone rested within the confines her capsule, aware that she had been taken from the wilds. perhaps all was not lost. the human boy appeared eager. perhaps she was much more than a simple prize.
trainer sam has successfully captured the wild cubone!
