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 the activity check and gala have ended, if your character has been archived and you need them back please pm one of the admins!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!

[attr=class,ashes] there's a lot of wild pokemon here, cain notices. a lot of hostile wild pokemon. that nuzleaf was more than enough trouble for cain. he's surprised he came out of that encounter with only bruises. there's a myriad of them dotting his skin, but he guesses that he's used to it after a while.
"thank a lot murkrow." cain sighs. it's the whole reason that the nuzleaf practically threw him. he asked it for help, but it only made the matters worst. now cain is massaging his poor hips and behind, and the murkrow's just cawing in laughter at him. dark types sucked sometimes.
"i'll get my revenge." cain huffs. he keeps walking, willing himself to move on despite his mind telling him to go back to the pokemon center.
[attr=class,ashes] cain has his murkrow out, as well as his ponyta and amaura. the deserve some air after a while, although he loathes to have his poochyena out. feng scares the ponyta away, and any wild pokemon he'd encounter. even though the rest of his pokemon didn't have names, they are much, much more tolerable.
cain looks at them. they do need names, don't they? he squints at the murkrow. it's not exactly easy to name pokemon. he thought of anything. tv shows? uhh. twilight hour. by this guy named serling? perfect. he points at the murkrow. "your name is serling." he says simply, with a smile. the pokemon reluctantly nods its head in approval. he then points at the amaura. "oono."
the ponyta doesn't really have a name, but cain isn't creative enough to think of another one at the moment. he's barely starting to think of another when suddenly a shadow flies over his head. he sees leathery wings and a splash of grey. it's a fossil pokemon, right? cain looks at him in slight awe. that's actually pretty cool. maybe they can be fossil buddies.
the aerodactyl flies straight past him, landing in front of cain a couple meters way. the trainer hops off the prehistoric bird and waves. he's pretty friendly for someone with a giant scary fossil pokemon. oono shifts uneasily in his position. he's normally chirpy but the sight of the predator alarms him. his other pokemon are the same.
cain's completely unaware, however. "what's up? name's cain." he greets. if he's a trainer too, then that means that they might battle. it's a cardinal rule among them. those who meet eyes must battle. and while it's not always adhered to, it can create some pretty fun matches.
"want to battle?" cain offers right away. chit chat can wait for later, he can tell that his pokemon are a little anxious anyways. they haven't gotten much action since the nuzleaf, and it was mostly serling's work. cain hasn't really had a real battle before -- a trainer to trainer battle, so he's excited at the prospect of finally getting to see how it happens.
"nice to meet you will." cain grins, extending a hand out for a handshake. he huffs a small laugh at the joke. will has a good sense of humor, at least. he follows will's gaze, one that goes behind him to his amuara. "oh, that's oono. i revived him from the lab. you did that for your aerodactal?" he asks, pointing back at the gigantic grey dinosaur.
he walks back towards the field, thinking of what to call out on the way. well, he might as well give oono some training right? cain beckons the dinosaur up. the blue pokemon looks a little scared, but not too petrified. specks of ice swirl around it as it steps forward. the ice pokemon is ready to fight, however reluctantly.
"alright, start off with a powder snow!" cain says. the pokemon summons a mini storm, sending it to whatever pokemon will sends out.
[attr=class,ashes] "onoo. like uh. i don't know actually. it's just a pretty catchy name. uno's pretty fun though." cain drawls, his shoulders lifting slightly in a shrug. it's simple. he saw it once. somewhere in a magazine, maybe. it has a nice ring to it, and that's what counts for him. although uno's pretty fun, maybe he can offer will a game or two after they're done.
the aerodactal easily dodges the powder snow, flying out of reach. with a flap of its wings it comes closer, drawing in for a fire fang. amaura runs out of the way of the first one. the second one, however, he's not so fortunate with. its jaws clamp around amaura's side. flames lick at it's side, burning the ice that's formed around its body. it's an ice type, but it's also a rock type. it cancels each effect out, like a normal attack.
the aerodactal isn't so lucky. amuara has the advantage in this battle. "powder snow again, then a thunder wave." he says. amaura is quick to listen to him, blowing a mini-blizzard onto the aerodactal's face before sending a jolt of electricity towards it.
[attr=class,ashes] william returns his pokemon. it goes back into its pokemon with a flash of red light. a gible takes its place. it's oddly shaped. its mouth takes up half of its body, and it looks like a mini land shark. cain looks at it in brief amusement.
after an order from willian the pokemon sends a blast of blue energy at it. amaura can barely leap out of the way of the attack. "thunder wave, then use powder snow again!" cain says. lightning streaks towards the gible befure oono inhales, and with a huff of air, sends more snow at the pokemon. it should be super effective, since it's a dragon type pokemon. probably. cain isn't one hundred percent sure, but that's what it looks like.
