for the first time in a long time, evan was up before noah. ever since they were little kids and all through their teenage years, noah was always the first one to be up. it wasn't that evan was lazy. it was just that why did someone feel the need to wake up at nine in the morning when there was nothing to be done. his mother had always commented that if he slept until the afternoon then he would waste the day away. well there was plenty of things he could fit into half a day if he tried. it wasn't a popular way of thinking but it worked for him.
but for some reason he was up way before his companion, the morning light still peeking out from behind the trees. he didn't know why he got up so early since most of the time he decided to turn over and sleep more until noah nudged him awake. but instead of doing just that, he got up, put on clothes, and left the inn for a short jog.
the early morning air was cool and had yet to heat up for the day. evan decided to travel on the route knowing that it was still too early for trainers to randomly come out and stop him for a battle. his swablu snow was flying overhead staying close to her trainer but high enough to where she can enjoy the fresh morning air. "enjoying yourself?" he called up above and only received a small song in response. "yeah i thought so." evan smiled and looked forward still running lightly down the path and keeping an eye out for anything strange.
strange was hoppip's middle name. okay, not really. hoppip floated peacefully through the air. oh look! a trainer nearby. hoppip steered his way over to the trainer and landed in front of him. he gave the trainer a friendly wave with his leafs.
he wasn't expecting to run into anyone out here...well more like anything. evan started to slow down when he noticed a figure floating in his peripheral vision. huh? the pink form slowly floated down in the path ahead and stopped in front of him. "oh a hoppip..." the leaves on its body gave a tiny wave at him and he couldn't help but smile back at it. swablu flew down when she noticed that her trainer had stopped following under her and noticed the presence of another pokemon. in the prospect of making a new friend, the flying type flew over and landed next to the tiny pokemon and gave a small song in greeting. "hey are you out here by yourself?" evan knew that some pokemon were a lot more friendly towards humans so it was always a new experience to meet one that just wanted to say hello. walking forward, he knelt down in front of the two pokemon and looked between them. "just floating around enjoying yourself huh?"
this red-haired trainer seems really friendly. he nodded at the trainer's first remark. truth was he was out here looking for a battle. but he had no moves he could use to attack. instead he hopped over to the swablu and booped its nose using his leaf. hopefully the swablu wouldn't mind!
evan watched as the hoppip nodded to his statement and looked around. true, he did not see anymore pokemon around here so it must have been out here by itself. he didn't have any snacks or something to give to the friendly hoppip. he had not been expecting to run into anything today. he had only brought swablu in the chance that there may have been a battle.
the swablu ruffled its feathers and waited to see what the other pokemon would do. to say the least, she wasn't expecting to get bopped in the nose by the other flying type. stepping back a little, she shook her head and stared at the hoppip with anger. she thought it was friendly but she was clearly wrong. she had to protect her trainer in the chance the other tried to attack him. swablu came forward and covered her face with her wings before moving them away and revealing a scary face, trying to astonish the hoppip. after that, the bird pokemon came forward with its beak tried to peck at it.
evan could only watch as his pokemon attacked the other and wondered how things escalated so quickly.
what a mean swablu. hoppip took both attacks and shook it off before retaliating by lowering the bird's defenses. hoppip had no moves that could damage the bird. poor hoppip.
[attr="class","nv3"] but i look at you. i look at you, and god, constellations are bursting, fires are dying, silence is deafening, the whole damn world is terrifying - - - – – and im falling, god, i’m falling.
SWABLU WAS HIT WITH TAIL WHIP! SWABLU USED SING! SWABLU USED PECK! IN YOUR POST!
[attr="class","nv3"] this poor hoppip im sorry noodles

[attr="class","mv1"]evan had no idea what was going on but he was still pretty sure everything escalated too quickly. he thought he saw the hoppip go and hit his swablu in the face but he wasn't sure if it was a hit at all. it was more like a pat. the next thing he knew, the bird pokemon had swooped down and attacked the creature. evan wasn't sure if he should stop it or not considering the hoppip was fighting back....if one could call that fighting. did the poor thing even know how to attack? whatever was happening between them, he was sure it was some weird pokemon thing that happened and they would sort it out amongst themselves...hopefully.
the swablu watched as both attacks hit and chanted in victory. this was her first real battle and she had landed two hits on her opponent. she watched as the hoppip flew over and managed to hit its tail against her face. the flying type flew back a few paces and ruffled her feathers angrily. knowing what she needed to do, the flying type began to sing a lovely song that would hopefully put the other to sleep. whether the hoppip fell for it or not, she flew forward once again to try and land a hit with peck.

[attr="class","mv1"]the swablu cheered in success when the hoppip was finally defeated. she had won her first real battle. the bird pokemon flapped her wings and took off into the sky, singing a song as she soared overhead.
evan stared at the fainted hoppip on the ground. he felt a little bad for it. throughout the entire battle, it had not attacked at all. it was kind of sad. he watched as his swablu floated above in the sky clearly excited aout what just happened. he didn't want to break it to her that her first battle was against a hoppip that only knew tail whip and whatever else. she could enjoy herself for now. evan turned his attention back to the small pokemon on the ground and sighed. getting a pokeball, he threw the device at the pokemon and watched it go into a red light. he might as well take the poor thing along instead of leaving it on the side of the road. maybe getting trained would toughen the thing up...hopefully.
