VIVI
[break] Just another modest beginning. Vivi hated modest beginnings. Modest beginnings had gotten her nowhere in life. Hard work. That was the only thing that had ever gotten Vivi anywhere. No one had ever been willing to help her or give her a break, so she had stopped relying on them. Viola Solovyov would get by on her own, and other people could eat her dust. Next on her list? Champion of Hoenn.
[break][break] It had taken years to get some sense of accomplishment in her past, but here she was again at square 1. Route 101. The name glared at her, reminding her that she was nowhere. She needed more Pokemon, too. She wasn't going to become champion with just this little Misdreavus. Vivi was glaring at every shadow, searching for wild Pokemon to battle or catch on her way to the next town. Hopefully it wouldn't be as pathetic as the place she had just come from. She doubted it. [break][break][break]
skorupi dug his way underground, forming a very narrow path as he dug. it was fun! and when he finally got tired he burst out of the ground. and to his surprise there was a female right in front of him. feeling startled, he sent off a poison sting attack at the trainer, though with his lousy aim it would most likely miss.

VIVI
[break] A little bug-looking thing popped out of the ground right in front of Vivi. How fortuitous: the Pokemon were practically throwing themselves at her. Any thought of her day getting easier darkened when the poison barb was sent her way. Being poorly aimed, it was easy matter to get out of the way, but the mere fact that the Pokemon had attacked her was an aggravating insult. Vivi took a few steps back, enough for her to throw a pokeball down with a glare at the Skorupi. [break][break] Nightshade the Misdreavus floated up in front of her. "Let's get this little bastard. Weaken it and hit it with Psywave, Nightshade!" The bitterness Vivi held against the little poison Pokemon was clear. She had to beat it--maybe even capture it, if only out of spite. The Misdreavus Growled as it approached the Skorupi on the ground, then attacked quickly. [break][break][break]
SUMMARY
[break] - Vivi dodged the Poison Sting![break] - Nightshade the Misdreavus was sent out![break] - Nightshade used Growl![break] - Nightshade used Psywave! [break][break][break]
The young skorupi scuttled backwards as the scary pokémon's psychic energy struck him. His eyes squeezed tightly shut as he cowered slightly. He'd only gotten a fright! Was it really so bad to act on instinct?
With his eyes still tightly closed, the skorupi blindly threw more poisonous barbs, but this time vaguely aiming for the misdreavus.
Skorupi was affected by growl! Skorupi was hit by psywave! Skorupi used poison sting! Skorupi used poison sting!
[break] This wretched little beast. It didn't even have the mettle to fight with its eyes open! What a waste of Pokemon. Vivi and her Nightshade would show it what a real Pokemon was capable of. She would even catch it and raise it to be more powerful, more confident. It would not be a small effort, but an example would have to be made. [break][break] The Misdreavus took the poorly shot Poison Stings, though seemed unperturbed by them. "Nightshade, get this over with! Psywave, again." Vivi had no patience for a Pokemon this weak and cowardly. She stood with her arms crossed, looking on with a distasteful expression. She would need many more Pokemon in her arsenal if her plans were to come to fruition, and this weakling, it appeared, would be in the start of it. Of course, she would need others--many others. [break][break][break]
SUMMARY
[break] - Nightshade was hit by Poison Sting![break] - Nightshade was hit by Poison Sting again![break] - Nightshade is Okay[break] - Nightshade used Psywave![break] - Nightshade used Psywave again![break][break] - Vivi used Glare! [break][break][break]
It seemed as though his incessant rain of poisonous barbs weren't deterring his opponent any; what did he do?
The skorupi tried to think as he clamped his little pincers over his ears, trying to block out as much of the pokémon's psychic attack as he could. They weren't relenting in the slightest with him. W-What did he do??
"Skoooorrr!" He squealed, high-pitched, and lunged after the misdreavus on a nervous impulse, aiming to bite her.
Skorupi was hit by psywave! Skorupi dodged psywave! Skorupi used bite! Skorupi used bite!

VIVI
[break] How was this puny little thing not beaten yet? Nightshade had been hitting it near incessantly with those psychic screams, but it continued to come at her. She wasn't fond of the damage her Pokemon was taking, either. Nightshade floated around the bug thing. It was likely some attempt to confuse it, or at least avoid the attacks. Perhaps this Skorupi wasn't quite as weak as Vivi had originally assumed. If it's resilience was any indication, it might end up being quite useful. [break][break] "What are you waiting for, Nightshade!?" The Misdreavus looked at her owner, distracting her so that she was caught by a Bite. This only served to aggravate Vivi even more as her Misdreavus drooped toward the ground for a few seconds. Once she recovered from the hit, however, she went right back at the Skorupi with those psychic attacks. [break][break][break]
SUMMARY
[break] - Nightshade dodged Bite![break] - Nightshade was hit by Bite![break] - It was a critical hit![break] - Nightshade is Injured[break] - Nightshade used Psywave![break] - Nightshade used Psywave again! [break][break][break]
The skorupi began to retreat, scuttling backwards as the psychic waves made him ever more disorientated. He could feel what little energy he had left be sapped from him. He shouldn't... have attacked. He really shouldn't have.
"S-S... kor..." The poisonous bug gave in and fell to the ground, his body tightening and curling up, accepting his defeat.
Skorupi was hit by psywave! Skorupi fainted! Nightshade gains two levels! Capture the fainted skorupi? Another pokémon?

VIVI
[break] A slow smirk spread over Vivi's face as the skorpion finally quit. She had shown it who held the real power here. As small an accomplishment as it was to defeat a Skorupi on this early route, Vivi still stroked her ego with it. She threw a pokeball over at the Skorupi and relished in her first catch. [break][break] Seeing her poor Misdreavus hurt as it was, Vivi returned it. She still had one more Pokemon she could use for battling before she had to go and get them all healed. Confidence restored, Vivi traipsed around the route looking for another Pokemon. She had beaten one, so who was to say she couldn't do it again? Even though she was new to battling, and that was actually her first win, Vivi let herself be arrogant. Of course, she was always full of herself, but she was ready for another battle and thought she would be able to handle it. [break][break][break]
SUMMARY
[break] - Vivi threw a pokeball![break] - Vivi returned Nightshade to her pokeball[break][break] - Vivi would like to battle! [break][break][break]
