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 the activity check and gala have ended, if your character has been archived and you need them back please pm one of the admins!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

she blocked the path. her body was still as a rock. one might think she was a statue with how still she was. here eyes were closed to tight slits as she slept, standing straight and tall with her shell basking in the bright summer sun. her usual plume of smoke was diminished completely. because she was napping.
her breaths were so small and minute that her body didn't so much as flex as she took in air. everything about her suggested a lifeless body, a stone gargoyle, nothing but a blockage in a trainer's way of life.
but damn, was it a good spot to nap.
a wild torkoal appeared! the torkoal seems to be a statue? what will william do?
it was practically impossible to lift her — she was nearly 200 pounds and this kid was scrawny. but at the same time, she didn't even notice him. all that mattered to her was the warm sun on her back and the sweet, sweet dreams she was having....
but wait.
wait.
her eyes snapped open, but only a sliver. the boy wouldn't notice her being awake. slowly she waited and watched him as he attempted to move her, one of his hands gradually slipping down her underbelly —
the torkoal roared awake, a huge blast of volcanic ash and steam erupting from her shell and right in the boys face. she was furious! how dare he try to touch her like that?!
without a second thought, the torkoal released a smog of poisonous gas from her shell to distract the boy, leaping away and facing him with sheer anger. after a few barks of "Tor! KoalTork!" to let him know she meant business, the Torkoal unleashed a barrage of embers at the trainer once again.
torkoal woke up! torkoal thinks william tried to cop a feel! torkoal is really, really mad! torkoal attacked william! what will he do?
so this was how it was gonna go, huh? the torkoal squinted her eyes again, glaring at the gible. how pathetic. she took the two dragon rages without much resistance.
she roared again, stomping on of her feet loudly in the process. a great billow of dense, black smoke drifted out of her shell at an alarming pace, creating a smokescreen to keep the enemy from seeing her as well and knocking down its accuracy a good amount.
what next, what next? ah, yes. the torkoal easily spotted the gabite from a little ways away. with smoke still rising out of her shell, the torkoal began to spin rapidly in it's direction, hoping to slam into it and cause some major damage.
torkoal was hit by dragon rage x2! torkoal used smokescreen! torkoal used rapid spin!
she roared with pure anger. what was this?! another pokemon?! how was that fair?? shaking her head with another roar, she unleashed another smog of poisonous gas right before the first bubble hit. and it hit hard. the torkoal shook it off, though. she could handle this, right?
right.
the other bubble hit, but she ignored her sudden fatigue. with great rage the torkoal launched another rapid spin at her opponent.
torkoal used smog! torkoal was hit by bubble x2! torkoal used rapid spin!
the bubbles hit, and they hit hard. the torkoal almost tried to stand up despite her sudden exhaustion, but it didn't work. after the second attack, the torkoal teetered and fell onto its side.
in a way, it looked like it had returned to stone once again, its eyes shut closed and smoke no longer pouring from its back. it's smokescreen was beginning to diminish now that she was defeated, and finally the grassy area came back to view.
well, at least now she may be able to get some sleep. right?
torkoal was hit by bubble x2! torkoal fainted! torkoal has returned to "stone"! what will william do? capture? more pokemon?
hey sat in the grass, completely alone. holding two rocks, the espurr purred quietly to himself as he played with them, acting as if they were toy ponytas prancing in a prairie. tiny, small sounds came from his mouth as each rock trotted in his hands.
he didn't even notice the battle that was less than ten feet away. he was too busy playing. his eyes looked blankly at the rocks as he daydreamed about being a ponyta. man, they were cool. his eyes didn't move as his rocks clacked together quietly in a ponyta battle. which one would win? soon the whole prairie would know.
the espurr didn't even realize the bite was coming until the aerodactyl's massive jaws were clamped around his tiny body. crying out in pain, the espur felt the dark-type move suck most of his energy straight out of his body.
the rocks fell out of his tiny paws as he cried. his teeth were bared as he tried to accept the pain, soon writhing in the aerodactyl's mouth until his tiny claws scratched at its face and a barrage of psychic confusion aimed itself at the tall, extinct pokemon.
espurr was hit by bite x2! espurr used scratch! espurr used confusion!
he cried in pain as the next couple of bites felt like they were crushing his insides. oh no! what could he do?! the espurr continued to use scratch and confusion, but it didn't seem to be doing all that much.
in an exhausted hurry, the espurr wriggled out of the aerodactyl's jaws and fell to the ground, landing harshly and with a quiet whine of pain. he looked to the trainer with wide, scared eyes, crying for mercy.
espurr was hit by bite x2! espurr used scratch! espurr used confusion! espurr wriggled out of aerodactyl's grasp! espurr pleads for mercy! what will william do?
as the battle began, he crawled into the bushes, safe and away from any further danger. he couldn't see much through his parents' tall bodies, but he could gather what was happening. the ground shook beneath his paws not once but twice, and his brother's squeal of pain hit his eardrums like nails on a chalkboard.
good thing he wasn't still fighting, huh? the espurr crawled deeper into the bushes to further hide himself. he had finished his job, now he should rest.
espurr is hiding in the bushes! espurr cannot be attacked!
watching his children closely, the meowstic began to feel ecstatic. yes, fight! his offspring were finally going to fight and prove their worth!!
their daughter was doing splendidly. she had effectively dodged the second earthquake, and was doing well all things considered. but their youngest....
he looked at the young espurr, who was being targeted by both the nidoking and the aerodactyl. frowning, he noticed as his son furiously dodged as many attacks as possible, otherwise being fresh meat for their opponents. that was rather unfair, wasn't it? oh well.

she stared at the battle with unchanging eyes, nowhere near as entertained as her mate. this was a test, and that was all. she glared at her opponents, the trainers, and then at her own children. if they didn't perform to what she considered the top of their ability, they would be scrapped. without a single drop of remorse.
she glared mostly at their youngest son. he had been much too excitable, and he was acting squirrelly. because of this, he became the first major target. though he did dodge two of the attacks — but that wasn't enough to suffice the judgmental mother.

the earthquake hit from the new opponent, a nidoking, and it honestly surprised her. but the second one was just overkill — she leaped into the air and dodged it easily. her first confusion attack was angled at the nidoking, but she quickly found herself noticing her brother and his predicament.
he was currently in the jaws of the aerodactyl, who was causing the tiny espurr to squeal in pain. in an effort to help, she sent another confusion the aerodactyl's way, just long enough to distract it so her bother could get out of the way of its next attack.
espurr was it by earthquake! espurr dodged earthquake! dodges are now [1/2]. espurr used confusion x2!

he saw the nidoking before his sister, but didn't expect the earthquake. he did the same as his partner, leaping to dodge the second ground attack when he noticed the aerodactyl heading his way like a bullet train.
shocked and suddenly quite scared, he shot a confusion at the aerodactyl again, just before its jaws clamped down on his tiny body. squealing in pain, him and his sister launched a barrage of confusion at it mid-attack, and he was just able to squirm out of the way of the pokemon's second bite.
espurr was hit by earthquake! espurr dodged earthquake! espurr used confusion! espurr was hit by bite! espurr dodged bite [ 2/2 ]! espurr used confusion!

WILD INVASION
Dylan was tired of waiting around for his bestfriend, they promised they would travel together! Not alone, and Dylan knew he was around here somewhere! He saw him before he even stepped on the boat to get to this place. "Where is that knucklehead, better hope I don't catch him with any girls." Dylan muttered angrily though he knew he wouldn't actually invade of William's love life like that, and expected him to do the same.
As he continued searching and searching for his friend he saw a large dinosaur flying around in the air. "There! I remember that! That's his Aerodactyl!" Dylan shouted rushing over to where the beast was flying around. Though when he got there he was shocked to see William surrounded by an army of cats. . .? Well whatever he looked like he was in trouble! And Dylan was gonna save his ass one way other another!
Dylan quickly plucked off the most powerful Pokemon's pokeball off his belt and slammed it onto the floor releasing the beast, with angry eyes he pointed towards the Espurs and Meowstics. "Treble cause some trouble!" He commanded and Treble grinned sadistically. He then began to charge towards William with Dylan following him. "HEY YOU CATS! LEAVE MY BEST FRIEND ALONE!" He shouted as Treble came to a stop, and began stomping his feet on the ground using Earthquake!
Sheer Force - Lv.20 - Healthy Treble used Earthquake! Treble used Earthquake again!
