[attr="class","sv3"] This is a candied world, and it spreads like fire. When it devours me I call the burning 'fun', but I never really was the purist one. Though I try to cleanse my soul with every sun. And I just get deeper in the same shit but doesn't everyone? Close my eyes and play along.
The white sand and ocean waves made for a great place to collect ones thoughts, the festival having finished wrapping up entirely he'd decided to board a certain older man's ship and now found himself in Dewford. He's playing through recent events in his head reflecting on what's happened and what my possibly happen from here on in. About A day ago or so ago he'd gotten his first badge, and the high from the event was beginning to calm. From here he needed to make it to make it Rustboro or continue on the Slateport, He leans toward the metropolis as he needs to head back to Rustboro anyways to handle some business, and collect the gym badge there. Alternatively he could have swung back around after he got to Mauvile, but he really just wanted to get Rustboro over with feeling like if he went now he'd never have to look back. As he ponders all this he's rented a fishing rod letting the lure bob up and down in the water casually beside him Heliolisk ready to attack anything he managed to get on the line. His set up not flawless, but made pretty good for fishing.
staryu spots the lure bobbing in the water. this human is trying to catch pokemon? it's comrades? it's instantly enraged. staryu does not hve a mouth to engulf this monstrosity, but it knows that other pokemon will. he pops out of the water, sending a flury of swift towards them.

Glowing stars appear from the sea as the star pokemon itself shows itself blasting out of the water. The flurry hits both the treainer and the pokemon the stars cutting his arm ever so slightly Heliolisk stands strong through the stars taking damage while the remainder hit the sand causing it to rise. "Knock it out with a thunder! if it's still awake after follow up with parabolic charge" the trainer calls to the pokemon and sure enough the electric type fires a blast of electricity directly at the star all the while the trainer prepares a pokeball warily wondering if the water type managed to stay conscious through the onslaught of electric type attacks.
staryu leaps out of the water and tries to avoid the electricity attacks. it knows that if it hits it then it'll be out pretty much for good. staryu hits the grass and camoflauges to being a grass type. after that it hardens its shell, a veneer of hard shell surrounding its body.

Very clever! In fact this had to be the most clever wild pokemon he'd fought in his very short career as a trainer. "I didn't expect that!" He calls to the pokemon a little excited now removing his fishing rod worried it'll get swept away in the ocean. But I don't let my fights go unfinished. The pokemon was a different type, but it was time to see how different the type was. "Heliolisk Charge and then Thunder the beach, Full Power." The Heliolisk glances back at his trainer for a moment happy it's able to go all out gathering energy from within all the while an aura of electricity surrounding him now raising his special defense. Its frills spread wide electricty flowing through them before unleashing a powerful lightning strike in the area where the staryu camouflaged itself. He couldn't see it exactly but with such a large attack the idea was hitting the entire area hoping to reveal the pokemon and do some damage as well. As lightning hits the ground sand blasts up creating a cover of dirt and dust alike. Leaving the trainer to wait for the pokemon to resurface itself.
the thunder strikes staryu with such intensity that even with it's type change, it's a powerful attack. but staryu manages to stay concious throughout the assault. it scrambles to recover from the attack. the regenerative properties that come with starfish replenish it's health, and it sends another swift spray of stars at it.

The second swift makes contact the stars following the Lizard type but also reveal itself further. Thanks to the charge a turn prior the electric type pokemon took even less damage than before, The starry attack also fully revealed the former water type pokemon, giving the lizard a full target. "Don't let up charge and thunder one more time!" The lizard having no qualms once again charges raising it's defense further gathering up another electrical energy for a powerful blast its frills bursting with electricity before firing it all in one massive blast at the star all the while the trainer prepares a pokeball. Extremely interested in catching the seafloor pokemon.
staryu has finally met its match. the thunder shocks it competely. it's too strong, despite the numerous defenses that it'd put up. staryu faints, hoping that the human at least has a little mercy.

The Electric type pokemon is a bit tired but proud of its victory, the pokemon however still doesn't wish to return to his pokeball and so it sits on the sand all the while Miles drops a pokeball on the staryu the sound confirming his catch. The star type pokemon would definitely be useful further along his journey he retrieves the ball placing it in his bag for now before returning the rod casting a line out once again searching for more fish pokemon. His eyes far less focused now, relaxing on the beach sands. the lizard pokemon resting on all fours eyes closed, but ears sharp listening for anything that my threaten his trainer.

It's been about 30 minutes or so since he's recast the line in the clear depths, he begins to nod off the warm day getting the best of him as he falls into his daze he can feel the line in his hands tug almost instantly alerting him. "Oi Oi!" He calls his pokemon, "I got something prepare yourself, Charge." He grits his teeth attempting to reel the pokemon in. He continues his orders his muscles tightening as he continues to pull, "the second I pull it out of the water thunder!" He eyes the water waiting for the right moment to give it his all as the lure bobs a final time he yanks the rod back as hard as he can hoping to land the pokemon. Heliolisk having charged up prepares his own attack fully alert after seeing his trainer struggle for so long now.

"karp karp!" magikarp says after she's pulled out of the water. she struggles to breathe, and the thunder haaded straight towards her doesn't look like nice, either. she splashes and hurls her body towards the pokemon in a tackle.

The thunder misses the pokemon turning out to be a magikarp. The water type manages to the bolt splashing about tackling the electric type all the while. As Heliolisk is about to respond Miles decides to hold off on the attack. He doesn't want to fry the fish entirely and so now that it's on land he decides to take a different approach carefully reaching into his bag obtaining more of the pokefood he'd placed on the lure. "Hey friend... Sorry for the attack."
He moves up closer to the pokemon carefully offering the bait to the pokemon. "Promise there's more of this if you decide to travel with me." He makes sure to seem non aggressive as he possibly can kneeling next to the floundering fish.

the fish flops on the ground in near panic, but when the human stoops closer she pauses. there's not a hostile tone with him and she finds herself being a little more open with the possibility of food. her eye switches to the food and she flops slightly to eat at it. she wouldn't mind staying with this guy for a while.

The fish pokemon accepts the trainer as Miles continues to feed it leaving both happy, Helioisk isn't exactly pleased the water type got a free hit in on him, but backs down nonetheless. The red hair taps the fish pokemon with a pokeball the red light enveloping it only casually the ball rings three times and the pokemon is caught. Pleased with his catches the trainer packs up his gear and makes his way back to the city ready to continue his journey.
