Time for a bit of a pit stop. Sam had requested Mr. Briney to drop him off in Dewport for a little bit, giving the old man some money to go get something to eat while he waited on Sam. He wanted to check out the town a bit. especially Granite Cave.
The boy had heard of the cave and was a bit eager to check it out honestly. While he made his way through the sandy shores of the beach like town Sam would start to rummage around in his bag.
Quickly pulling out a flashlight as he neared the entrance of the cave. With a slight grin on his face the boy would stare silently at the entrance of the cave before heading right in, flashlight still in hand. However he still had the flashlight off, not really seeing a reason to turn it on until he actually needed to use it.
A bit nervous honestly about what might lurk in the cave Sam would reach up to grab the top of the red scarf he wore around his neck, pulling it up to cover his mouth.
While it certainly wouldn't protect him from anything it did make him feel a bit more comfortable at least. While he walked through the cave Sam would jiggle his flashlight around, trying to keep himself occupied as he searched the cave for anything really, pokemon, weird cavey things or a treasure chest.
Caves have treasure chests right? Probably not, more then likely he'd only end up bumping into some pokemon while in the cave.
aron is just sleeping in the ground. then someone steps on him! he pops up in surprise and looks around. wow what a jerk. to get back her slaps mud at the guy, just because he stepped on him.
Sam would jump as the mud hit his leg, he didn't even feel the Aron he stepped on. He only felt the attack hit his leg. "Well shit.." He muttered out as he backed up and flicked his flashlight on, moving it around until the light reflected off the metallic Aron.
"...I think it wants to fight.." Sam mumbled out as he started to reach for a pokeball. Without knowing he stepped on the Aron it made sense that the thing wanted to fight, after all it seemed to Sam as if the pokemon struck first. Once his hand was on a pokeball Sam would simply let it fall to the ground, already knowing what was inside.
With a flash of light Sam's Marill would appear from the pokeball, immediately looking at the Aron, a 'wtf is this thing' look on her face. "Alright, it wants to fight I think Mallo, soooo use bubble!"
Sam said while slipping his hands into the pockets of his jacket. The Marill responding by simply opening her mouth, firing out two bubble attacks at the Aron.
aron leaps over the first batch of bubbles, but the second hits him in the face. ouch, that hurts too. guess he's going to get hurt a lot today. he shakes the attack off and hardens his coat before swinging a metallic foot at the pokemon.
aron dodged! aron used harden! aron used metal claw Sam Holiday
Marill would let out something reminiscent of a chuckle after the second bubble attack landed. She was gonna kick the shit out of this Aron. Marill would make the noise again as Aron used a harden attack, that wouldn't help it much at all.
The little water type was too busy with her attempt at laughter to even notice when the Aron charged in, getting hit head on with the metal claw and rolling back a bit. "Don't worry you still got it Mallo..its just one little hit." Sam called out with confidence, knowing that Marill didn't have a weakness when it came to steel type attacks like some of the other fairy types.
Which was probably due to the water typing Marill also had. "No reason to use a different attack I mean..harden doesn't help protect special attacks. Use some more Bubbles Mallo." Which the Marill did, happily, ready to kick the Aron's ass some more Marill would open her mouth up and fire two more bubble attacks at Aron.
mallo (marill)♀ - level 011 - huge power moveset: roll out, defense curl, water gun, tackle, tail whip, bubble used bubble x2 on Aron (super effective, 10% chance to lower speed) hurt a bit
Last Edit: Jul 21, 2015 2:00:59 GMT by Sam Holiday
aron faints, the bubbles knock it right out. the attack unfortunately, is super effective. the water burns at it's rock skin and it faints from the pain.
aron fainted! capture? marill gains 2 levels!
onix♂ - level 012 - sturdy moveset: mudsport, tackle, harden bind, rock tomb, rock throw
onix rises from the depths, emerging from a hole in the ground next to sam. who dares intrude on her cave? he roars. dust and pebbles fall from the ceilling. onix swings his tail and hurls a couple boulders their way.
onix uses rock tomb! onix uses harden! Sam Holiday
"Good job Mallo" Sam said as soon as the Aron went down, immediately starting to reach for a pokeball. Only to stop as the large Onix burst through a hole near Sam, the Onix immediately taking his attention away. "Oooooh damn thats a big pokemon" The boy muttered out in aww, unconsciously reaching for the pokeball still. Only to drop the ball as the Onix used Rock Tomb, Sam and his Marill running out of the way, neither one wanted to get squashed by the boulders.
"Shit!" Sam called out as he realized he dropped the empty pokeball he was going to catch the Aron in, at least the ball wasn't that far away. "You can take this thing right Mallo? Its a giant rock after all, just gotta get it wet a bit. Use some more bubble attacks!"
The boy commanded, Marill responding by happily firing more bubble attacks at the Onix, two attack in total actually. Eager to take down a pokemon that was many many times larger then herself. The bubbles coming out a faster then before, it even felt stronger to the Marill. She must of learned Bubblebeam from defeating that Aron.
Still wanting to capture the Aron that they had just defeated Sam would simply run towards the dropped ball and kick it! Sending the empty ball right for the Aron, only for it to hit the downed steel type on the head and suck it inside, capturing the fainted pokemon.

onix♂ - level 012 - sturdy moveset: mudsport, tackle, harden bind, rock tomb, rock throw
the onix roars in protest as the bubblebeam makes its mark. her body sizzles at the touch, water dripping down its burning forehead. alright fine, if they wanted to play dirty, they will! he burrows into the ground, waiting a beat before he rushes towards the spot of ground underneath them and attempts to gobble them up.
onix dodges bubblebeam! onix uses tackle! Sam Holiday
The boy clapped his hands together as one of the bubble beam attacks made contact, probably doing some decent damage to the onix. Only for his little bit of celebrating to immediately be cut short by the Onix burrowing under ground. "Ooooh shit shit shit shit shit shit" Sam blurted out, officially in panic mode.
No matter what the Onix was doing underneath them there was no way in hell it was a good thing. "Move Mallo!" Sam yelled out as he started to run in the opposite direction, Marill following after him. Luckily enough they'd both actually manage to avoid the Onix's mouth when it came up from below them, Marill still getting hit by the side of the Onix's head.
Sending the little blue ball like pokemon flying. Hearing the impact Sam would turn around to see what was going on, only to see Marill flying right at him. With a grunt Marill would hit Sam's chest, the boy instantly moving his arms up to hold the marill against his chest after the impact, so that it wouldnt get hurt more from hitting the ground.
"You okay Mallo?" He asked, staring down at the Marill, the Marill responding with a faint wag of her tail. Putting the Marill down on its feet Sam would step back a bit, still staring at the Onix. Knowing damn well that Marill would rather fight then run away now.
"I don't think the Onix can take much more either Marill, go ahead and hit it with more Bubble beams." Sam said with a quick nod of his head, Marill responding by glaring daggers at the Onix and firing two more bubble beam attacks at the large rock snake.
mallo (marill)♀ - level 013 - huge power moveset: roll out, defense curl, water gun, tackle, tail whip, bubble beam used bubble beam x2 on Onix (super effective, 10% chance to lower speed) hurt a lot
onix♂ - level 012 - sturdy moveset: mudsport, tackle, harden bind, rock tomb, rock throw
the onix falls to the ground, boulder by boulder until finally its head smashes into the ground in front of them. she rumbles softly until with a final sigh he loses consciousness.
As soon as the onix started to fall Sam would be digging around for an empty pokeball. Already having decided in his mind that he needed this pokemon on his team. Once the Onix hit the ground Sam would pull out a pokeball and simply tap it against the Onix's forehead.
Capturing the fainted rock snake pokemon easily. "Alright, I think thats enough for one day Mallo.." Sam had said while looking over at his Marill, only to see the little blue pokemon barely jumping out of the way of a Thunder-Wave attack.
"Or not..." He added while looking over to see what was attacking Marill, noticing it was some kind of weird rock with a big red nose. "Well its a rock type, obviously, soooo Bubble Beam!"
The boy called out through the scarf still around the lower half of his face, giving Marill her commands. Happily obliging because of the rude way she was randomly attacked Marill would open her mouth up and fire off two more bubble beam attacks, this time at the Nosepass.
the bubblebeam smacks into the nosepass, but not before it gets a chance to right itself. nosepass floats out of the way of the second one. it sends a bunch of rocks towards the marill.
nosepass dodges bubblebeam nosepass uses rock throw Sam Holiday
Sam would stand quietly as the Marill's first attack had landed, already regretting allowing it to fight. Which would turn out to be a choice that came back to bite him in the ass. As the Nosepass easily dodged the second attack and counter attacked.
The Rock Throw hitting the little Marill head on and sending the pokemon rolling backwards until she bumped into Sam's leg to come to a stop. Being completely fainted now thanks to the Nosepass. "Dammit.." Sam muttered out underneath his breath, grabbing the Marill's pokeball to return it.
So that she wouldnt suffer further injury from the Nosepass. He could just leave now, keep on going and leave the stupid Nosepass in the cave. But it fainted one of his pokemon, he didn't want to just leave the Nosepass behind, he wanted to beat the ever loving shit out of it.
Without making any type of sound Sam would reach down for another pokeball, sending out his Cubone this time. Knowing perfectly well that Rock types were weak to Ground type attacks. "Femur, see that rock thing with the big nose? Bone Club it." Sam simply blurted out in a monotone voice, the Cubone responding with a nod of her head. Only to then rush in at the Nosepass, going for two separate bone club attacks.
mallo (marill)♀ - level 015 - huge power moveset: roll out, defense curl, water gun, tackle, tail whip, bubble beam FAINTED
femur (cubone)♀ - level 015 - rock head moveset: growl, tail whip, bone club, headbutt, leer used Bone Club x2 (super effective, 10% chance to flinch) sent out to replaced fainted Marill
"Well..." Sam blurted out as the Nosepass went down easily from the Bone clubs. "That was easier then I thought.." He followed up with, it looked like Cubone had gotten a lot stronger then he thought. Then again he shouldn't be that surprised, after all Cubone did single handedly beat the first gym for him.
Whiiich reminded Sam that this town had a gym as well, perhaps he should head there next and get their badge. He knew it was a fighting type gym which might be a bit hard for him, Deino, Cubone and every pokemon he found in this cave being weak to Fighting.
With a shake of his head to clear his thoughts Sam would go for another pokeball, before grabbing the empty ball and throwing it at the Nosepass. Capturing the fainted pokemon, only for the ball to then disappear in a flash of light, being sent back to his PC.
"Welp, come on Femur, lets head out of here bud." Sam said with a nod of his head, before starting to make his way out of the cave, his flashlight guiding him. Cubone following right behind him, one of her paws reaching forward to hold the back of her trainer's pant leg, so that she wouldn't get lost in the dark cave. Once they were out Sam and Cubone would keep on walking, making their way to the pokemon center so that the pokemon could be healed.
