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.

the feline pokemon yawned, her mouth opening wide to reveal curved canines.
"ya tired, tanya?"
tanya shifted her gaze toward her female coordinator, the woman trotting alongside her at a leisurely pace. the female's owner was a curious human, one whom, ultimately, suited her. for example - andrea encouraged her predatory behavior. she could maintain her true self, and was typically allowed free reign whenever she desired it.
"we can rest if ya wanna. yer in need of it, yeah?"
"lux."
"ah, i got ya. don't wanna stop now? whelp, whatever is good fer ya is okay with me. ain't too tired myself."
"luxio."
"so, i gotta get ready fer the next gym, right? imma need ta use pancham and froakie this round."
the girl hummed.
"meanin' i gotta train. wonder if anyone is up fer a battle."
they were still close to the city. and the occasional someone could be spotted here and there. hopefully there was another in the possession of pokemon that was willing to let 'em get some air.
"yo!"
she pointed someone out who caught her eye - a male.
"does it matter, cool guy?" she replied. "imma use my luxio fer sure. tanya needs ta stretch her legs, yeah? i'm sure ya can handle her just fine. she's still fairly fresh when it comes ta battlin', ya see."
"lux."
the electric-type peered up at the human male, her face fixed into a plain look. she did appear somewhat curious after a moment of eyeing, but masked it decently enough with a low grunt of her own name.
"well? are ya up fer it or not? ain't got time ta just be standin' idle and shit. there's trainin' ta do. if i get this done i can contact my girl quicker, ya know?"
the urge to contact bunny had come at random. the petite female's voice alone often lulled the rebellious female into a state of bliss. her pocket buzzed and alerted her to a recently acquired text. but she resisted the urge to tug it out of her pocket - her eyes only reflecting a characteristic show of impatience.
the pokemon obeyed, growing anxious as the creature's heated jaws snapped in her general direction. batting her paws at the fossil come to life, the pokemon bared her teeth and snarled at the fierce aerodactyl.
"it's okay, girl! he ain't gonna eat ya!"
at least i hope he ain't, she thought.
the electric-type continued to growl at the flying creature, confusion etched onto her features as she failed to recognize its species. andrea produced her pokedex to remedy her own ignorance.
"aerodactyl, an extinct flying pokémon. Its hard fangs suggest that it was a carnivore. Its sharp claws were probably used to capture prey."
"ugly motherfucker, ain't he?"
tanya appeared to agree as she snapped her jaws toward the rock-type pokemon, maintaining a good distance away from it.
"use yer ability, girl!"
the pokemon did just that, fluffing out her fur a bit and releasing a noise akin to a roar as she allowed the ability 'intimidate' to show.
"now use spark! and then another!"
it's flyin'. so, i hope it works.
tanya neared the creature, releasing a pair of sparks toward her selected foe.

"oh, shit!"
the pokemon that followed wiped andrea's grin clean off her face. there was something about gible that made her confidence in a battle waver for a second or two. the dragons were powerful, and her pokemon often struggled to deal with them. even luxio proved no match when she was given a double helping of dragon rage.
"lux!"
face twisting to reveal her discontent, the girl returned her recently fainted pokemon and stuffed the red and white capsule into her pocket with a grumble.
"fine. ya play hard. but i can play harder."
she tugged her starter pokemon's capsule from her belt and tossed it into the field with a quiet growl.
"java!"
"fro!"
the water-type clapped his paws as he made his appearance, preforming an excited jig. for some reason, he felt positively pumped, and andrea fed off that very energy as her smile returned.
"ice beam! double helping!"
the pokemon opened his maw wide, ushering in the chilled beams of energy eagerly.

java clapped his paws cheerily as he was deemed the victor. he bounced around, and andrea chuckled at the antics, before her features grew slack with confusion. the pokemon had taken on a glow. it had been dim, at first, and now it grew more intense.
"java? lil' buddy?"
the girl appeared to be positively stunned as the froakie's shape changed before her eyes. after becoming much more slender in build, the shine dispersed, revealing a frog-like specimen that appeared quite pleased with himself.
"java?"
"frog-a-dier!"
"frogadier," she parroted.
andrea produced her pokedex.
"frogadier, the bubble frog pokémon, and the evolved form of froakie. frogadier's speed is unmatched. it can climb a tower over 2,000 feet tall in one minute."
"ya evolved, java!"
the pokemon stepped closer to the fighting-type he now faced. the double dose of pound had made the newly-evolved creature wince. but he responded with a pound of his own, the strike quick but not particularly powerful.
he wanted this to last for a moment longer.
and andrea picked up on that rather quickly.
"use growl!"
the the creature's mouth opened wide, releasing a terrible noise that caused the surrounding airs to distort.
- - > torrent - - lv.17 - - mild. injured pound - - bubble - - growl - - quick attack - - ice beam - - water pulse java has evolved! java was hit by pound! java was hit by pound! java used pound! java used growl!

java released a grunt as he was struck twice. one had hit rather hard, and he grimaced in response to the creature's ability to deal damage in an efficient manner. he moved to respond, but halted as andrea barked out a order.
"java! yer done fer now! return!"
the creature scowled, but remained idle, allowing himself to be recalled. after securing her starter's red and white sphere to her belt, she produced another.
"i ain't one fer takin' advantage of a weaker pokemon."
the coordinator produced another of her choice. one who would have to work a bit more in order to achieve victory. andrea intended to grant the foe a type advantage, at least.
"beerus!"
the pokemon stepped forward once he made his appearance, claws digging into the earth.
"go ahead," andrea called. "yer free ta make the first move!"
torrent - - lv.17 - - injured pound - - bubble - - growl - - quick attack - - ice beam - - water pulse java was hit by pound! java was hit by pound! java was returned!

"alright! beerus, try ta last!"
beerus offered the smallest nod of his head as the timburr made his move. the creature managed to sweep his feet out from underneath the absol once, the dark-type's chin slamming into the earth as a result to the bold action. but he quickly recovered, hurrying to distance himself from the fierce wood-wielding fighter.
"ab!"
"fire blast!"
summoning the flames into existence with a roar, beerus caused the heated collection of heat to fly toward his foe.
"follow it up with an ice beam!"
ice took shape as the dark-type inhaled sharply, a bolt of the chilled energy thrusting itself toward the fighter next at high velocity.
"ya know what? yer right. yer pokemon aren't weak. i can see it from here. we gotta battle after some of 'em evolve," she called.
pressure - - lv. 15 - - 54% razor wind - future sight - fire blast - dark pulse - ice beam - perish song beerus was hit by low kick! beerus dodged low kick! beerus used fire blast! beerus used ice beam!
andrea chuckled in response to the male's dismissive response.
"beerus! on point!"
the command merely recommended that he remain aware of his foe's following actions. this would be close; ridiculously so. especially since the fighting-type had an advantage. had it not been for beerus's experience, the following strike would have knocked him silly. but, he remained in the fight, moving just enough to avoid the second sweep that would have ended it completely.
"a-absol..."
his body felt sore from the attacks, his legs wobbly as he peered in the timburr's direction.
"ice beam! twice! we ain't riskin' shit."
the absol obeyed without a moment of hesitance, conjuring up the remainder of his strength as he shot off two consecutive bolts of ice that glimmered prettily within the light of day.
pressure - - lv. 15 - - 6% razor wind - future sight - fire blast - dark pulse - ice beam - perish song beerus was hit by low kick! beerus dodged low kick! beerus used ice beam! beerus used ice beam!
the dark-type panted, bowing his head and squeezing his eyes shut once all was said and done. he was terribly sore, and barely clinging on as his mistress produced his capsule and recalled him into the red and white sphere. andrea grinned, satisfied that she had managed a win. she looked to her opponent, and approached him, a smile on her face.
"thank ya fer the battle. had no idea that my starter would evolve. appreciate it, man," she said, grinning widely.
after a moment of consideration, she requested the male's phone.
"ya did me a service. so i'll do one fer ya. if ya ever want me ta teach ya somethin' like ice beam or dark pulse - hit me up. ya basically already paid fer the move with the battle. so ya don't need ta worry about yer pocket none."
andrea inserted her digits into his phone, saving it under her first name before returning the device to the trainer.
"yer real awesome, man. call me anytime, ya got me? i'm always up fer a rematch if yer ever interested."
she turned away, peered over her shoulder, and waved. a giddy laugh escaped her as she replayed the vivid imagery of java's evolution in her head. andrea did not realize that a random battle would have triggered his evolution. perhaps the training conducted beforehand had prepped him for that moment in particular.
"time ta move on ta the big city," she drawled.
with a steady pace, and a smile on her face, the coordinator moved on to tackle her next challenge.
