The boy rolled the small pokeball in his hand, thumb brushing over the small circular button. He'd received his companion not long ago and hadn't yet met them. He would have to eventually and what would be a better time than now? A long sigh escapes his lips before the thumb that once grazed the button pressed down gently. A swift flash of light erupted from the ball, spilling forth a small shape at his feet. The shape slowly materialized into a small fox-like pokemon ears perking and tail flicking back and forth.
"Eevee!" The small pokemon chirped up towards his trainer. Jay bit his lower lip for a moment as he stared at the small bundle of fur. Cute pokemon weren't his forte. At all. He wasn't quite sure how to feel about the Eevee before him. Another sigh emits from him as he turns to sit down on a nearby fallen log. The small pokemon watches him with wide eyes before chirping again, jumping up at Jay's legs. This continues for a few moments before the teen lifts his hand to pet the small thing. Sure cute pokemon weren't his thing but it wasn't like he had a choice in companion. The Eevee chirps once more before his ears lower, pressing his head up into Jay's hand. A warm smile crosses his face as he leans forward to pick up the bundle of fur.
"Your cuteness won't work with me, just letting you know." The pokemon tilts his head at his trainer in confusion before yipping loudly and letting his tail flail wildly behind him. Jay sighs and wraps his arms around the Eevee. It would take a long time for him to get used to this weird furry thing.

Booooored. Electrike walked along the route completely bored out of her mind. She wanted to fight something, and no new trainers were out yet. Well that was until the little electric type spotted the trainer and his eevee, she finally found a challenger! Thinking she was hot shit Electrike would strut up to the trainer, lowering herself a bit before starting to growl. Trying to clue the duo in that she wants to fight!
The small bundle of fur in Jay's arms yipped at him, pawing up at his face. His ears flickered a bit as he picked up the small sounds of footsteps followed by an animal's growl. Suddenly, the Eevee jumped from Jay's clutches and landed daintily in front of the Electrike. Eevee slowly lowered its body to the ground, placing a foot behind him and one before him. With a short growl at the wild pokemon, the Eevee was already ready for battle.
Jay blinked slowly at the site before him and let out a chuckle. "Well, alright then." He shrugged his shoulders simply and slowly pushed himself off the log.
The teen stood and stretched his arms up into the air before moving a hand to his waist. It was the two's first battle and Jay probably wasn't going to take it as seriously as his companion.
"Let's see what you can do, Eevee," the teen paused and lazily flicked his finger to the Electrike, palm up, "start things off with a quick tackle."
The Eevee yipped towards his trainer before pushing his legs off the ground and launching himself at his opponent.
Once the Eevee landed in front of her Electrike would growl right back, not intimidated by the cute pokemon at all. She was ready to fight! This is what she lived for, Electrike felt no bigger thrill then when in a battle. Plus it helped that she was undefeated so far! She felt like she was on top of the world when it came to battling. She was ready for anything and everything, jumping to the right as Eevee ran in for a tackle, jumping out of the way of the attack. The little electric pokemon being full of energy already! With another growl Electrike would charge right in, going for a tackle of her on!
electrike used tackle! electrike dodged tackle (1/2)
As the Eevee thrusted itself forward at his opponent, it waited until the last second to dodge the tackle attack. Eevee panicked mid air as his attack missed causing him to fly forward further than he had meant. The small pokemon took a tumble, rolling once or twice before landing on its belly with a thump. The Electrike flew towards the pokemon and collided easily with the downed Eevee, sending skidding back across the dirt.
Eevee lingered on the ground for a moment before promptly getting right back up and shaking his head. He fluffed himself up and yipped as he returned to his battle stance.
"Again." The trainer commanded seemingly unfazed that Eevee had taken damage.
His pokemon nodded simply and launched himself at the Electrike again and not intending to miss this time.
This time as the Eevee charged in Electrike would go to jump out of the way at the last moment again, trying to show off some more. Only to screw up the timing and get nailed with a tackle right as she tried to jump, getting sent flying a few feet from the impact combined with her own momentum. As she hit the ground Electrike would roll along the ground a bit before climbing up to her feet, growling once again. With a narrow of her eyes Electrike would fire off some electricity at the Eevee, the electricity being her Thunder Wave attack! Only to then charge in again as soon as she shot the Thunder Wave, charging right in for one more Tackle attack!
electrike used thunder wave! (will paralyze if it hits) electrike used tackle! hurt a bit
When Eevee barely knocked into his opponent, he gracefully landed back on his feet. It could hear the skittering sounds of Electrike's body rolling across the ground. He turned around back in his stance and dropped himself low in wait for the pokemon's next attack. The Electrike growled once more at the Eevee before the pokemon begun to spark.
"Dodge, quick." The Eevee yipped in response as he waited until just the right moment to dodge the electric attack aimed at it. The electricity zoomed past the pokemon and struck a nearby tree leaving a small burn mark in the bark. As he barely escaped the attack he was suddenly struck, the body of Electrike slamming straight into him sending him scooting back across the ground again.
The pokemon swiftly returned to its feet, feeling the pain of bruising from the two tackle attacks he'd received so far in this battle. He turned to his trainer again hurt but already ready to fight once again.
"Start up another tackle attack." Jay responded to his pokemon. With a small nod Eevee begun to launch itself at the electric type, aiming a bit higher, near the chest area, than before.
Electrike let out a snarl as the Eevee dodged out of the way of her Thunder Wave attack. She had been sure that move would of sealed the battle in her favor! But it turned out it didn't work at all, on the bright side Electrike still managed to barrel into the Eevee, successfully tackling it! Which was honestly good enough in her book, she still managed to damage it!
Celebrating a bit early Electrike would sit on her hind legs after the tackle, and howl up into the air, thinking Eevee was done for! No pokemon survived her two tackle onslaught! ...Even though so far she only has beaten up random caterpies here and there, she still thought she was hot shit. Which wouldn't last for long as she was slammed into by the Eevee and sent toppling over a few times. Maybe she bit off more then she could chew after all.
Not content to go down that easy Electrike would stumble up to her feet once again. Snarling at the trainer and his Eevee before charging in for a third time, going for on last ditch tackle attack!
The Eevee happily let out a content yip at his trainer, tail waggling behind it. The Electrike had taken a good bit of damage this time around and the small normal type was quite happy about it. As his opponent stood once again Eevee looked towards his trainer once again.
"Good job!" The trainer replied simply. The Eevee quickly returned his attention to the Electrike in time to see her barreling towards him with another tackle.
"Dodge and tackle again." Eevee quickly dodged the Electrike's tackle attack landing swiftly on its paws before pushing off the ground. He aimed himself at his opponent going right into another tackle to counter the one he'd dodged.
And just like that the Electrike who thought she was queen of everything was down! Her tackle being dodged completely caught her off guard. Still in shock by the time the Eevee had slammed right into her again with another tackle, this one being a critical hit! The blow sent Electrike flying a bit, before hitting the ground about a foot away. Completely fainted!
electrike fainted! electrike is available for capture!
Eevee gained two levels! Another pokemon? Jay Price
After colliding with the Electrike it was sent back, completely knocking it out. Eevee won and it was extremely excited to have done so. He yipped happily as his opponent fainted out of battle and bounced around in place before trotting over to his trainer. It stretched his little paws up Jay's legs and jumped up at him.
"Yeah yeah, I get it. Good job." The teen bent down and picked up the pokemon. His hand raised and patted the Eevee's head and dusting off his fur. The little bundle yipped happily at his trainer and licked his face. He really just wanted to show off how good he was to his trainer but honestly Jay wasn't that impressed with it. Maybe it was because it was just a low level battle or just because Jay wasn't impressed with the cuteness of Eevee. Yet.
"Anyway now that that's over, I guess we can try catching Electrike." Jay spoke in an almost questioning tone to his pokemon but not waiting for any reply before digging into his bag. His hand rummaged around before finding and grabbing an empty pokeball.
With a short toss, the pokeball flew in the air and opened with a short burst of light that shot out towards the fainted Electrike. She was sure cocky, much like Jay himself, so if anything he had someone else to get along with.
[OOC; another please~ do dodges reset after each encounter or no? also will i need to write out a trip to a poke center later on? ]
It was a bad day for Solosis so far, her mother had taken her on a trip down to this route to let her play with some of the younger and weaker pokemon down here. But some how during the day Solosis lost sight of her mom, Solosis couldn't help but cry a bit as she floated down the route because of this. She wasn't sure if she had just gotten lost of if a trainer some how managed to beat her mom and take her away, Solosis didn't know what to do without her. Eventually Solosis would cry too much, not being able to see where she was going, making no noise as she cried, all tuckered out now, just quiet sobs escaping. Eventually the Solosis would find herself bumping into something that felt like a person from behind. Once that happened she'd start to cry more, she must of bumped into a trainer too, what if this was the end for her. Paralyzed with fear Solosis would just float in the air after bumping into Jay, still crying.
crying solosis bumped into Jay's back.
(Unfortunately dodges don't reset per battle and are 2 per thread. On the bright side you don't have to mention going to the pokemon center and your pokemon get healed in between threads. If you want you can mention stopping by the pokemon center in your last post in your thread however you absolutely don't have to.) Jay Price
As the Electrike disappeared into the pokeball, Jay swiftly reached out his hand again and caught it. His thumb rubbed gently over the small button on the front face before he returned the pokeball to his bag, no longer vacant. The teen shifted his feet in place and hoisted his arm up a bit higher so that the Eevee wouldn't fall from his hold.
The Eevee licked at Jay's chin and yipped at him quietly. He smiled a bit and pet the fluffy creature's head once more.
"I suppose I should give you a name now." Jay tilted his head a bit, thinking. "How's Issac sound?"
Eevee tilted his own head back in response to his trainer before slowly waggling his tail, thumping it against Jay's hip. In his own way the Eevee responded, yipping happily while his tail thumped along.
"I'll take that a- ah?" Jay stopped midway interrupted by a sudden bump into his backside. He turned around slowly only to be met with a crying Solosis. She looked as though she'd been crying for hours on end and was obviously very upset about something.
Without hesitating much, Jay slowly bent down to eye level with the small squishy pokemon, setting down Isaac in between, and begun to speak softly hoping the frightened little thing wouldn't be frightened by him more.
"Hey, shh it's alright, I won't hurt you. Are you lost?" Jay settled his hands on his knees and relaxed before the Solosis trying his best not to scare the poor thing.
[OOC; 2 per thread or 2 per battle? and same question for the poke center sort of; will my character be able to heal pokes WHILE in a thread or is that not allowed? (sorry for all the questions I'm just new to how to site is ran ;w; ) ]
Once the trainer turned around and got down closer to her level Solosis would start to float backwards a bit. Still sobbing almost uncontrollably as she did so. The sight of the trainer's eevee only making her fear worse, he already had a pokemon, he could take her out at any moment. In a last ditch attempt Solosis would start to communicate with Jay telepathically. He'd hear a young childlike voice saying "P-please dont hurt me, I just wanna find my mom.."
crying solosis communicated
(Its two per thread. I had to check with Cila about the pokecenter thing, if you go during the wild thread to heal up then you wouldn't be able to find anymore wild pokemon. However with the way potions work on the site you could use one of these to heal eevee if it gets hurt more, if a pokemon's under level 20 a regular potion will completely heal it!) Jay Price
Isaac sat back on his hind as his trainer interacted with the Solosis. He wasn't very intimidated by the squishy thing nor did he really feel like fighting again. Though the pokemon did look very...chewy and quite tempting to nibble on. The Eevee flopped his tail against the ground idly and spaced out, not paying much attention to Jay or the Solosis anymore.
Jay blinked at the child voice and slowly looked around. There wasn't anybody here besides him, Isaac, and of course the oodles of wild pokemon around. The only logical source of the voice was Solosis considering it was a psychic type. He noticed the tiny pokemon float back a bit and slowly put his hands up, shaking his head. "I'm not here to hurt you, promise."
The teen smiled warmly, his hands still held up before him. "I can help you find your mom if you like. You can trust me to not hurt you or your mother."
[OOC; okay thanks! just wanted to ask before i got too far into the site]
