welcome to calamity! we are an au pokemon site based in hoenn. we do not have canons so you can pick them as your fcs! we have a short one hundred word word count. and you get to also pick your own starter! calamity is going to focus on providing users with a good and stable plot line to follow. this helps each character progress and some might even have a play in affecting the plot! we hope you enjoy your time here and if you have any questions don't be afraid to ask.
hey guys! we've finally hit our three month mark! let's stay strong. the activity check and gala have ended, if your character has been archived and you need them back please pm one of the admins! unfortunately, noods has steped down from his admin position. make sure you say your goodbyes here!

It seems as though the Voltorb is tired of dealing with these two and has decided to roll away. AJ just blinked rapidly, almost enamoured that it ended that quickly.
That's when she hears the soft words. "You should catch it..." AJ glances over at the blonde, taken aback slightly that she's talking, but a small smile graces the teen's face, but it quickly slips as realization dawns on her mind. "Oh, catch it!" she stammers. That's when she remembers the round objects that were passed on to her from the professor. "Right! Uh...." she mutters as her azure gaze shifted left and right then finally she catches sight of it.
A slight shock to her system makes her pause then frown as she shakes her head, raven hair flowing back and forth from the motion. "I don't think I can," she whispers, but shifts her attention to the girl. "You can if you want. I-I'm new at this and I'm very nervous. I just got him," she states, flicking her wrist towards the Piplup who gives her a soft, adoring, yet wary look. "Thank you for helping me though," she states softly, with all sincerity. Her eyes travel back over to the Voltorb, but she's still speaking to the girl. "Do you mind if I ask your name?"

voltorb soon clears the trees and finds itself relatively unscathed. it's glad that nothing's chased it down or something! the pokemon continues on its merry way.
silence. again. you watch the girl. not out of information, but out of curiosity. you don't know what's happening. her stammer and her eyes to the pokéball in her hand. the voltorb is already gone before she could even have the chance to catch it. it's not a shame really, avery taught you a bit of information of people in the outside world. interesting. something new to you.
your eyes stray from the girl to the swirlix in your arms, you scratch his head a bit before looking back. name? you look at the ground a bit. should you talk? do you want to talk? you open your mouth to speak, but, no words came out. remember. you're not here to talk. you're here to work. you took out your phone and type out a message.
"my name is fiona...nice to meet you, and you are?"
you hold out your phone to the girl. about two minutes and you put it away, back in your pocket.

The Piplup's little black orbs darted around the trees, obviously wary of it's first battle. But the Voltorb was gone and so was the sense of urgency that came with fighting. His trainer...his trainer, was safe for now.
AJ glanced down at her partner then back at Fiona who is now holding out a phone to her. The raven-haired teen blinking and brought her face a little closer to the brightly lit screen, her grey-blue orbs running over the words she quickly typed up.
So, maybe this way was easier for the girl to communicate. Obviously she had proven that she could speak earlier, but maybe she didn't speak much of the native language.
AJ's cool gaze darted back to the blonde teen. "Oh, nice to meet you Fiona. I'm Avery, or really AJ." There was a nervous lilt in the teen's voice, but she was smiling. It was somewhat guarded, but friendly enough. "And this is...Piplup. He's my new partner."
"Pip!" he chirped in the affirmative, little feathers ruffling as if he is happy that his trainer has acknowledged him some grand way.

with the caterpie sitting on top of his hands zangoose strolls happily through the forest. he suddenly spots the trainers and their pokemon. they're practically asking for a battle! zangoose splays his palm and brings it forward. like a spray he uses caterpie to shoot string shots at them!
she seems sweet. kind even. you can hear it in her voice. can you communicate and tell her that? sooner rather than later? the rising fear that was inside of your throat still remains. there's still people out there who would harm you. even the sweetest flower can turn into a poisonous one. you know this quite well. with a smile and a small embarrassing blush on your cheeks, you nod. to acknowledge the name. this was the first time you met someone on the road. maybe when you have time, you should take the girl out and treat her later on. it's a rather fetching idea, considering that this was their first meetings. it... thoughts are then silenced.
with the piplup with an enthusiastic smile, strawberry the swirlix jump down from your arms and move over to piplup. tongue sticking out as per usual. the cotton candy pokemon was sincerely happy to meet someone new!
this time, with silence between them for a moment. before you can open your mouth again, your pansear blocks a string shot attack from an oncoming caterpie. determination fills his eyes as blaze was in effect. string shot burns on his body.
with speed quicker than usual, pansear aims for the zangoose, using scratching two times on the pokemon.
