Don't you know, little boy, They'll lay you to waste, man. Little do they know, every song is a lifespan. Yeah, they've taken one, but I'm takin' my last chance. To hold all we know and let go with both hands.
Dylan had to prepare for his up coming battle, he wasn't going to waste a single second out here, the only thing in his mind was to train, and keep on training till he could not train anymore. "Come on, let's do this!" He shouted getting pumped up, he was jogging in place getting really excited. He really didn't want to lose his first time going up to challenge.
He quickly sprinted off into the grass making quite the ruckus, he hoped something would attack him this time around. He ran laps in the tall grass, if his Pokémon train then he should train as well. As he ran he spoke to himself. "Fire beats Grass, Grass beats Water, Water beats Fire!" Dylan was getting right into the zone!
she was strong. she dominated the skies, and could decimate all whom stood in her path. an aggressive look caused the soft features of her face to morph unpleasantly. and this loud human did little to help the bird with her usually soured mood. settled upon a nearby branch, she squawked in an indignant fashion, appearing offended by his outright volume.
"fletch!"
flapping her wings, she attempted to warn him away with her actions.

Dylan eyed the bird, they both had noticed each other and it was obvious what was about to go down. Dylan quickly grabbed onto one of his Pokéballs and nodded. "This one seems good for this situation." He muttered and then lobbed the Pokéball high into the air releasing his trusty starter Pokémon Nidoran. "Alright Nidoran you see that punk up there! You're gonna go kick his butt!" He said cheering the Poison type Pokémon on. "Alright let's start this off! Go again Nidoran!!!" Dylan shouted scooping up his Nidoran and throwing it at the tree branch.
"Let's start this off with a Leer!" He commanded, all of this was for his training. Nidoran face quickly turned into a menacing one, his eyes turned into a crimson off, he gave off a presence of pure hatred and anger. "That should lower it's Defense now let's go at it with a Peck!" Dylan barked his next order. Nidoran lowered it's head causing the point to aim directly at the Fletchling, this indeed seem like it was going to be a hard battle, but Dylan knows it will be worth it in the end.
Rivalry - Lv.10 - Healthy Nidoran used Leer! Nidoran used Peck!
once the leer had been cast, she lowered herself to the ground, her glare prominent as she eagerly faced off against the poison-type. once he had lunged forward, she flapped her wings, avoiding the younger creature with a sharp chirp before turning sharply to face the nidoran.
"fletch!"
flapping her wings, she launched herself toward the nidoran, speeding toward the creature with a quick attack and following up the initial attempted strike with a tackle.
she would not be making this easy for the boy and his weak little pet.
a wild fletchling has hit by leer! the wild fletchling's defense was lowered! the wild fletchling dodged peck! ( 1/2 ) the wild fletching used quick attack! the wild fletching used tackle!

Dylan frowned to see the Peck miss after such a well executed leer, oh well didn't matter it was Fletching's turn to be on the offense, and the Trainer Pokémon duo's turn to be on the defense. "Alright try to take these hits Nidoran!" Dylan commanded and Nidoran nodded jumping out of the tree and hunkering down for the incoming attacks.
As it laid down in place though the Poison Point Pokémon decided to use another leer, the same presence of hatred and anger filled the air, followed up was a Focus Energy. Nidoran closed it's eyes exhaling quickly and inhaling. It then took both blows harshly, but did not lose focus. "Ready, we're gonna go for an all out attack next!" Dylan shouted and grinned.
Rivalry - Lv.10 - Moderately Injured Nidoran used Leer Nidoran used Focus Energy! Nidoran is getting pumped!
satisfied that her hits had landed, she had proceeded to distance herself. having to be dealt with yet another leer, she visibly shook, eyes squeezing shut as she attempted to fight against that dull throbbing in her skull.
"fletch!"
irritated by the display of power, she opened her beak wide, releasing a terrible growl that distorted the surrounding airs. this was followed by yet another bold shout to nidoran who dared challenge her might. oh, how tired she was of these humans who thought her ignorant. she knew their ways - their tactics. they considered the bird simple-minded, but she would not allow for herself to fall so easily. she was not like the rest, after all.

Dylan didn't mind the growling it was all a trick, he was hoping the bird would go for evening the odds, but even if it didn't Dylan would of been pleased, only an ace trainer could see what this man had planned. His Nidoran exhaled fully again, and then inhaled again. It quickly opened it's eyes and began charging towards the Fletchling.
"Alright! This time we won't fail! Go use Peck!" Dylan commanded smirking widely, he needed to pull out amazing strategy such as this if he wanted any change in beating the Gym Leader! And this bird wasn't going to stop him now, or ever in fact.
Rivalry - Lv.10 - Moderately Injured -2 Attack and +4 Critical Chance! Nidoran used Focus Energy! Nidoran is getting pumped! Nidoran used Peck! 100% Chance for Critical!!!
oh, how simple that was. she wielded her last opportunity to avoid the clever yet irritatingly obvious tactic. fletchling merely took to the skies, feeling the airs rush by her as the nidoran completed his first attempt. she landed near the boy, her gaze shifting toward him. a smug look formed on her beak before she reentered the fray with gusto.
"fletch!"
she flew toward the pokemon, striking quickly as she moved to bodily strike him with a quick attack. this was followed by a peck of her own, an arrogant look fixed onto her features.
the wild fletchling dodged peck! (2/2) the wild fletchling used quick attack! the wild fletchling used peck!

Dylan smiled, this what the types of battle he expected to see, but he doubted the Gym Leader would be this easy, his smile did not fade at the dodge, he expected it. Nidoran grunted though shaking its head quite angrily. "Calm down it's ok." Dylan said to his Nidoran, which he didn't know if he understood or not, but Dylan likes to think they do.
"Alright dodge and use Peck!" Dylan commanded and the Nidoran dodged the peck, but was in midair so fell prey to the Quick attack, but countered quickly using it's own. Nidoran then charged forward again towards the Fletchling thrusting it's horn out hoping for another strong jab.
Rivalry - Lv.10 - Injured -2 Attack and +4 Critical Chance! Nidoran used Peck! 100% Chance for Critical!!! Nidoran used Peck again!! 100% Chance for Critical!!!
well, she was in for a shock. the strike that had collided with her feathery belly caused her to temporarily black out. she lost all sense, mouth falling wide open as her body surrendered to the agony. features twisting into a grimace, the female managed to stay airborne for a second before she simply collapsed onto the ground. fletchling landed awkwardly onto her back, grunting softly as the grass proceeded to cushion her fall.
"fletch."
her gaze darted about confusedly, panic settling in before she could do little more than lose consciousness completely.
the wild fletchling was hit by peck! it was a critical hit! the wild fletchling has fainted! nidoran gained three levels! capture?

Dylan sighed with relief, this battle was over, but it was only the first one he needed more practice. "You're a strong Pokémon, very strong." Dylan muttered walking over to the Fletchling. "It would be a honor to capture you." He added and pulled out a Pokeball, he tapped the button against it's limp and unconscious body sucking it in. "Good, now let's move on!" He announced, returning his injured Nidoran. "You did well buddy."
He then went back into the grass jogging in circles. "I bet something will show up if I keep on making noise." Dylan thought and stomped a bit as he ran. He began talking to himself as well. "Ghost beats Psychic, Psychic beats Ghost! Dark beats both of them!"
staryu rested within a puddle, the depression in the ground and the surroundings liquids deep enough to conceal it properly. the water was clear, and it could be seen easily enough if someone squinted. but, as of now, no one had bothered to even glance at the pool of water or try to pull it out. it was a peaceful creature, after all. and wasn't in the mood to bother or harass any passerby.

Dylan continued running around talking to himself, he didn't notice the Staryu in his way. He kept on jogging accidentally stepping onto the poor thing. "Whoa!" He shouted, almost tripping himself to stop. "What the heck was that?" He muttered and looked around before noticing the Staryu that was lying around. "Oh whoops."
Dylan prepared to guard himself, stepping on a Pokemon like that must of angered it, right? Well even if not it was wise to keep a guard up just in case it decided to get revenge and attack Dylan with some water move. He used one hand to slowly reach for a Pokeball, prepared to send something out to attack if it did decide to attack Dylan.
it proceeded to quickly distract itself from the puddle, shaking fiercely and shifting in response to the sharp agony that had originated from its gem. once the unpleasant sensation had passed, it turned slightly to observe the human boy, its precious gem gleaming as it pondered over the humanoid specimen settled before it. eventually, it lay flat on the grass, its gem growing dull in the process. wholly apathetic, it merely fell asleep.

Dylan lowered his guard, The Pokémon didn't attack him, in fact it did nothing at all. It just laid motionless, no desire to attack at all. "Uh. . . ok? I guess we're gonna take the offensive this time around." Dylan said grabbing his Skiddo's Pokeball throwing the Mount Pokémon. "It should be easy to set up a good buff with Skiddo, then attack it later." Dylan muttered quietly making sure to not wake up the sleeping Staryu.
"Alrighty, Skiddo use growth twice." Dylan commanded quietly, and his Grass Pokémon happily obliged, it pranced around happily for a brief moment, all of the leaves attached to it's body began shining a beautiful green, and once they stopped shining they looked livelier then ever, this process was repeated again, making them look even more beautiful and lively.
Sap Sipper - Lv.11 - Healthy - Sp.A and Atk +2 Skiddo used Growth! Skiddo used Growth again!
