Rebuild the World in Ice
As you stepped onto the streets of Nogou Village, you could feel a fresh breeze lightly wrap around your ankles and cool you. Nogou Village is one of the region's principle cities because of its economic purpose in Alternia. The village of Nogou was the top producer of food for the region. So basically you made a good choice in selecting your city; lets just try not to get you into any trouble while your here.

It was a wonderous day to start a Journey. The sky was clear and not a thing could go wrong. It was although the world was at peace and nothing wrong could ever happen. Otherwise a perfect time to start a Journey.

Anyway, there are many things that you can do here. Go to the park, look for a job, you could even look for pokemon that inhabit urban areas. Though, some pokemon like Grimer aren't always nice to have around. However, there are plenty of other things to do as well including finding another pokemon trainer and battling him or her for glory, honor, and the right to rub it in their face if your opponent loses. Remember though, battling is just as much physical as it it mental. Fair warning if you choose the path of the warmongerer. In fact look over there I see a Voltorb rolling towards you. You could fight it if you want or maybe even try to play kickball (That'd be mean but it sound rather fun). Wanna take it on?

So yes, WELCOME TO ALTERNIA.

Hoothoot struggled once more to attack with a feeble growl and paralysed movements, so naturally... zappers! And so now, Avalon had himself a Hoothoot (enter Pokemon Capture song here). He half ran, half skipped over to the pokeball and stooped to pick it up. And then he gave Voltorb a rub with his gloved hand. "You did great Voltorb, excellent moves, you'll be a strong battler someday." He looked back at his pokemon behind him, they were guarding the egg which was propped up against the tree. "You're a great pokemon too, but I just don't think you have the right attitude for contests, its nothing agaisnt you, but with moves like that you need a compotent trainer built for battling." He took another pokeball from his pocket "Its entirely up to you Voltorb, would you like me to find you a trainer who will take excellent care of you, or do you want to roll off and fend for yourself once more?" he asked.

He expanded the ball and put it down in front of Voltorb, before smiling "Of course, I'll trade you face to face with them so I can see if they are a good trainer for you, and until then you'll be a member of my team." He made the peace sign, "Is it a deal?" While he waited for Voltorb to decide he clipped the pokeball onto his bag strap and went back to Rammy and Nails to pick up the egg. Nails was keeping the egg warm by rubbing it softly. Rammy was just sitting there looking at the egg, tilting his head this way and that. Avalon picked up the egg, to him it seemed a little heavier than before and he thought he felt it moe like it did before. He held it close to him, Rammy and Nails ran around his feet, the pat pat of Nails and the the thud thud of Rammy was music to his ears. Rammy and Nails, Rammy... Nails. "Ah thats right," he said coming to a sudden realisation. "I need to give Hoothoot a nickname... but what to call him." He ondered the fact for a moment, he was going to head to the pokemon center and heal his pokemon and the introduce his new team member to the rest of the team, and he may even do the same with Voltorb, after that, a name for Hoothoot would be great. And he had the perfect one. "I will call you Lark."

:hoothoot :male
Lark the Hoothoot
Has just become a member of Avalon's Contest Team!


With that all said and done. Avalon turned back to the Voltorb to see his reaction to Avalon's little speech.

The Voltorb before you began to rock forwards and backwards slowly, never quite reaching enough momentum in either direction to either hit the Pokeball or roll away to freedom. The Voltorb's narrow eyes were glazed over and it seemed unable to decide whether or not it wanted to go with you or elsewhere. The Voltorb's eyes suddenly opened up like enormous ovals and it appeared he had hit a revelation. Now we get to see what the Voltorb decided to do.

A big bang was heard and you saw a cloud of dust erupt around where the Pokeball like Pokemon was. Your Pokeball rolled forwards and hit you on the foot, stopping dead. Its button was pressed up against your foot and it recoiled backwards, opening as it rolled away. The Pokeball turned out to be empty. Looks like Voltorb had chosen to be free. Roll free Voltorb. Roll free. As the cloud of dust cleared, you saw Voltorb rolling away, a tiny orb of blurred red, sent hurtling away by a Sonic Boom.

"That was kind of you," said a voice from above. A man in a green cloak, jeans and a white t-shirt leaped down in front of you. "You're a pretty nice kid. That Voltorb was given a choice. I like that, but you didn't give your new Hoothoot a choice. Why?" This guy didn't appear to have any Pokemon on him, but he didn't look very happy. His face smiled with joy that you let Voltorb choose his freedom, but his eyes glared with rage that you had not given Hoothoot the same choice. He took a menacingly disarming step forwards and said, "Well? What answer do you have for me?"

Avalon looked at the Voltorb rolly swiftly away, he was happy that Voltorb was happy with his selection. And now the pokeball lay open and empty. He stooped to pick it up and closed it, even though it may be broken from the explosion, it could be repaired he thought, so its best to keep it. Avalon knew that pokemon have a choice, and that was whether to allow capture or not. Lark was a Hoothoot and Avalon had vowed that one day he would capture one, and this day, however brutal the battle was, he had suceeded. Now, he was going to make sure Lark would enjoy him time as a contest star.

All of a sudden he was aware of a man standing over him, Avalon looked up when he spoke and frowned. "I did really want a Hoothoot, it was unfortunate that it had to end so brutally, but I assure you Sir that I will take good care of him." Avalon rubbed the egg in his arms, "Besides, at least I was sensible enough not to kill him, and take him to the Pokemon Center. Unless you want me to leave him here and allow a stray Poochyena or something to feast on his helpless carcass." Avalon could see the man was not satisfied with this, but his frown had always been there and had seemed like a very stern man, and very Pokemon friendly. He may not hve been very kind, but Avalon saw he wasn't wearing any pokeballs, so he just had to ask. The man a question.

"Excuse me sir, are you on of those hermits who live in harmony with pokemon and avoid fighting," he slapped his head at his stupidity. "Of course, how silly of me you don't seem like on of those. You seem more like the person who cares about pokemon and wants to treat them as animals and not tools." Avalon sat with a slump under th tree, all the battling had made him a little hot and he had to rest a while. "I love pokemon too, for me they are my only friends, however I wish to view the world and unlike some I don't have the time to befriend pokemon in their natural habitats in order to gain their trust. I wish to show them new horisons, take them to the top, and care for them like children I shall never have. I want them to experience my highs and lows I want them to be with me until my, or their, last breath. And when I do die, I want them to be immortalised in stone on my grave." He was a little sad now, "You see Sir, I love my pokemon, Rammy, Nails, even Lark. And even though we haven't met yet, I love this little one," Avalon explained giving his egg a rub softly. He then diverted his attention back at the man and his camoflage cloak. "So tell me sir, what are YOUR views on the matter?" he asked with a smirk.

The man sat down across the path from you at the base of another tree. He said nothing as you spoke taking care to listen calmly and carefully to every word you said. He was a great listener. His eyes stared at you, but they were not boring into your soul. His body language was not distracting and he listened. That's it. He simply listened. But as he listened, you couldn't help but notice his marvelous eyes. They seemed like ponds of liquid ice in which you saw yourself like in a mirror. In his eyes, you didn't see yourself being judged. You saw yourself as a wonderful person shining in the light. However, as you asked your final question, the man's eyes shifted. He made no movement and stayed still as a rock, but his eyes reflected you in a darker light somehow.

The man answered without moving from his position. He said, "My views are that all creatures have a choice. They will go with whoever shows superior leadership. Trust is everything with any relationship. How can one form a lasting relationship based on slavery? For now, you may call me Gray." Gray stood up and he reached behind his back into the folds of his cloak. From behind his back, he drew two Pokeballs. Opening both of them, he said, "Come. Let us see how strong your relationship with your new Hoothoot is."

One of his Pokeballs opened to reveal a huge bird of prey. A Fearow. This bird landed on his shoulder and perched there, preening itself, uncaring of the situation at hand. The second Pokeball revealed a Spearow. This Spearow looked towards Gray, and Gray spread his arms out and stuck his head forwards. The Spearow cawed in approval and looked towards you. "This is my beloved Fearow's daughter. She has a ferocious spirit and it was a terrible chore to befriend both her and her mother, but I succeeded. Come now. Can you prove stronger than us despite our bond?" He paused for a second and then reached behind him again. Throwing an object towards you, he said, "Take this. Use it on your new ally. I don't want to win because Shelia is simply more well rested." Well, we'll assume that Shelia is his Spearow. The object that he threw to you was a Super Potion. Sweet. Plan to take his offer? You could just grab your stuff and run. He might not come after you...

As ferocious as Spearow seemed and as annoyed as Avalon felt, he couldn't bring himslef to fight Gray. Perhaps the reason was he was going to fight a man who had obviously grown to trust his pokemon over a longer period of time than Avalon had with Lark. He looked at the pokeball he held with Lark in it, and the Super Potion that lay a few feet from him. He knew that to fight would certainly prove Gray's point, he was a bush man from what Avalon had guessed. Avalon had taken the advantage in that fight, as you should do, and this man was doing exactly that using a toughened up Spearow and the threatening glare of a large Fearow to intimidate Avalon. Avalon however knew that running quickly away was a bad option as the mans pokemon looked very fierce and fast, they would have no problem catching him.

He knew what he had to do, he would forfeit, declining the battle was the easiest way to go. Lark was in no condition to fight, and taking the Super Potion, using it and then running was unethical. Avalon clipped Larks pokeball back onto his bag strap and spoke directly to Gray. "I understand your reasoning Gray, but in this fight you clearly have an advantage. Your pokemon are tougher and well trained, they trust you. I just aquired Lark, and while the method I used was, I admit, unfavourable to your sstandards, I assure you that Lark will be happy with me and that he will get the best care I can offer." He paused and rubbed the egg in his arms, wondering when it would hatch. "My egg, when it hatches would have the same treatment, he or she will have great fun with me. Friendships are formed, Rammy and Nails, my Shieldon and Nidoran, have a great trust bond with me and they will most likely go out of their way to protect me and each other from the perils in the world. They are the sword and shield basically." He took their pokeballs from his belt and returned them both, clipping the balls back on to his belt he stooped and picked up the Super Potion. "I decline your offer, I want to go back into town and look around a bit. I want to spend some time with my pokemon, so I will and shall. You can have your potion back, and I bid you good day." He tossed the potion back to Gray, turned on his heels and walked away towards Nogou hoping that he would not be stopped.

Gray did not follow you. No, he let you go. If you wouldn't take his offer he wouldn't force you. You kept walking, seeing many forest pokemon at peace. You wouldn't disturb them, and those that would be disturbed by you all fled when they heard your approach, so all was well. The forest pokemon were at peace and you'd gotten a new friend. Perhaps now would be a good time to mention that a large pokemon has been following you. You hear a noise and turn suddenly. In front of you is a huge Pinsir! It's gotta be at least five times bigger than the average Pinsir. Well, you're obviously scared and book it!

Trees fly past you, bugs stare as you make your mad dash for freedom. All the while you hear this massive Pinsir running after you. Miraculously, you made it out alive. Thank Arceus! You were back in Nogou Village. And no sooner than ten seconds after you walked into the quaint little town, a woman beckons you over. Next to her was a man, fumbling in his pocket to fork over about $200 to her. An Igglybuff nearby is bouncing up and down, probably using the attack Bounce.

The man was quite handsome. He had short brown hair with a faux-hawk. He was pretty tall, taller than you at least. He looked about ten years older than you, and in great shape. He has small but firm biceps that you could see, and his abs looked pretty good, well, from what you could tell through his t-shirt. You could see some women looking at him and blushing before looking away. Well, he was quite the looker if I do say so myself. The Igglybuff must be his.

"Hello there, you look new in town! I'd like to welcome you to Nogou Village and possibly offer you my business. I am a move tutor and a good one at that. I just tutored this young man's Igglybuff to use Bounce not two minutes ago and look at her now." Wow, she was pretty shameless. Using her last client to boost her business? Still, she looked pretty professional. But this young man looked a bit more interesting. Maybe he'd be a good traveling partner.

Donald watched as the woman pulled the pokeball out of her pocket. He had asked her to teach his Igglybuff the move Bounce, and he only knew of a few pokemon that knew such a move. When she released a Spoink, Donald could only smile at it and watch as the adorable pig-like pokemon bounced up and down on it’s tail, leaping higher and higher into the air. It was nice to see a pokemon enjoying itself, and the woman did seem as if she was a legitimate teacher. When it came time for his Igglybuff to learn, Donald watched as she did her best and followed the Move Tutor’s instructions. Watching his little Igglybuff bounce on her bottom made him laugh, not at her, no. But with her. Watching his Igglybuff bouncing up and down using her backside was hilarious, she reminded him of a bouncing ball. Laughing happily, he pulled the money from his pocket and paid the woman her fee. Yes, he felt as if it was a reasonable fee for getting him to laugh that hard and for his Igglybuff to learn a new move while also having a great time.

When the woman had received her fee, Donald reached out and caught his Igglybuff while she was in mid-jump. She was still a baby, after all, and he didn’t want her accidentally hurting herself or getting tired and then falling onto her head. Holding his Igglybuff close to him, Donald watched the lady who’d taught his Igglybuff how to bounce turn away from him. “Thanks..” he said, truly thankful to the lady even though she’d swooped down on him like a vulture to a fresh carcass. Seeing the woman going over to another boy, Donald’s gaze followed hers. Immediately he felt as if his heart had stopped. He’d always been partial to blonde hair and the boy she was talking to now looked absolutely adorable. Donald’s eyes were definitely sparkling in delighted interest as he watched the boy walking closer to him. Damn it though if the lady who’d taught Igglybuff how to bounce wasn’t ruining what would definitely have been a severely perfect meeting.

Holding tightly onto his beloved Igglybuff, Donald ran over and turned to face the woman, stepping between her and the boy who’d just gotten into town. “Now wait just one minute…” he said, glaring at her. “I am glad you helped teach Igglybuff how to bounce, but it was really your Spoink who did all the work of showing her how. I don’t appreciate you charging me for a service and then using me and my Igglybuff in your campaign to get more clients! First of all you didn’t ask me, and secondly Igglybuff is still a baby! You should be ashamed of yourself. And stop looking at me like that, I’m not your type. I’m gay, get over it! And I’d never travel with a shameless tart like you anyway…” Glaring daggers at the woman, Donald sighed and turned away from the woman to face the boy. Sure he was angry, but he at least hoped to get the boy away from the insane woman trying to make a profit off of new trainers innocence.

“If I were you, I’d stay clear of her..” he said, looking at the beautiful boy before him and smiling softly. “She’s really full of herself and acts as if she’s God’s gift to man…”

An ominous shadow came over Avalon, he was slightly angered that Gray had followed him. He turned around to tell him to go away, and the next thing he knew he was running as fast as he could, dodging Spinarak webs and Weedle nests, gripping onto the egg he held so he didn't have a large pile of pokemon omlette. He dashed out of the trees into Nogou, it wasn't warm todays so he wasn't sweating like a Grumpig by the end of his long run, but he was puffed and bent over a fence to catch his breath. One he had regained some control of his breathing, he became aware of a little voice in the background. The voice obviously belonged to a woman too high on self esteem to give a crap about anything that did not revolve around her, and with the attitude of a door-to-door salesman mixed with a cheesy game show host.

"Hello there, you look new in town! I'd like to welcome you to Nogou Village and possibly offer you my business. I am a move tutor and a good one at that. I just tutored this young man's Igglybuff to use Bounce not two minutes ago and look at her now."

Young man? She said that with the attitude of an elderly woman, something you would say to a teen before asking him 'Would you be so kind as to help me lift the heavy boxes onto the trailer?' Avalon peered over at the man. His heat immediately bounded back into fast action. The man was gorgeous, a tuft of brown hair covered his head, his clothing bulged with muscle, not to much though Avalon noted. His over all atmosphere was spectacular and Avalon swore he heard a chior of angles in the background. He didn't look like the 'young man' Avalon had envisioned, in fact he look older than the woman who was speaking to him. He moved over and blocked the woman from advancing on him any furthur.

“Now wait just one minute. I am glad you helped teach Igglybuff how to bounce, but it was really your Spoink who did all the work of showing her how. I don’t appreciate you charging me for a service and then using me and my Igglybuff in your campaign to get more clients! First of all you didn’t ask me, and secondly Igglybuff is still a baby! You should be ashamed of yourself. And stop looking at me like that, I’m not your type. I’m gay, get over it! And I’d never travel with a shameless tart like you anyway.”

Woah, did Avalon just hear him right? Did he say he was gay? Avalon was now joining the girls in their blushes and giggles, except his were kind of chuckles to disguise them as laughing at the man calling the woman a tart. The man turned to him now, the woman's face was priceless, a true Kodak moment.

“If I were you, I’d stay clear of her.” The man said smiling softly. “She’s really full of herself and acts as if she’s God’s gift to man.”Avalon maintained an air of composure, he was shy but like this man he wanted to tell the woman off. For a moment he looked away from him and spoke directly to the woman "For your infomation Miss, I am quite capable of teaching my pokemon moves on my own, and its much more difficult when you don't have a pokemon's help, I have already taught a Voltorb to use Spark with no electrical pokemon on my team it was my first test and a Co-ordinator. You seem to exploit pokemon for profit, and don't deny it." He turned from her hoping she would get the hint that her services were no longer reqired here. His attention was back on the man "I'm sure she got the message. I'm Avalon by the way."

Donald was glad that the woman knew when to shut her mouth, he really hated pushy people who acted as if they were better than everyone else, and that lady was certainly one of those people. Holding his Igglybuff in one arm, Donald steered Avalon away from the woman and continued walking toward the Pokemon Center in the distance. "Nice to meet you, Avalon.." he said, blushing softly as he removed his hand from Avalon's shoulder. "My name is Donald, and this is my Igglybuff.." he said, including his head at the pokemon he carried in one arm. "As Cruella De Vil back there just stated and you definitely overheard, she's still a baby and I'll never let anyone use her to make a profit." Falling silent again, Donald felt rather proud of himself for protecting his pokemon and not wanting to see it hurt.

Smiling softly, he looked at Avalon again out of the corners of his eyes as he walked toward the Pokemon Center. "I'm sorry if it seemed like I was staring at you back there when the vulture lady was harping at you. I just didn't expect to run into anyone so cute here in Nogou Town.. I mean!" Donald's face flushed crimson with color, damn he was doing a good job of embarrassing himself. "I mean, I didn't expect to run into such an adorable coordinator right away.." Chuckling nervously, Donald was silently scolding himself for sounding so stupid right now. 'Way to get your tongue tied' he thought bitterly, taking a moment to lick his lips because they were feeling rather dry like they always did when one was nervous. "I guess I sort of stick out, being new here and all. So, would you please, maybe, journey with me and help me out? I know that's a weird thing to ask as we've just met, but being in this strange region... well, it is a rather lonely feeling.."

They were heading towards the Pokemon Center, good Lark needed a good healing before heading off into the world of Co-ordination. Avalon was quite proud of himself when he saw himself in his mind standing next to some strange woman being handed the Golderia Trophie, turning to kiss his hot boyfriend with his spiked brown hair and his amazing body -- Avalon cut himself off. He was blushing terribly as he invisioned him and this man -Donald he called himself- that he just met kissing passionatley at a contest that Avalon would probably only reach in the very distant future considering his novice co-ordiantor status. Well, Avalon was still gripping his egg and wondering when it would hatch, he thought he heard some noises before but maybe that was just a truck in the distance. The pokemon center was getting nearer, Avalon was listening to Donald with half an ear.

Cute? Did he just call Avalon cute? Avalon immersed himself in the conversation now and out of the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of a blush, "I mean, I didn't expect to run into such an adorable coordinator right away." Donald said with a chuckle, Avalon smiled and gave a little chuckle himself, it was obvious that Donald was covering up a fumble. Avalon listened to him for a moment longer. "I guess I sort of stick out, being new here and all. So, would you please, maybe, journey with me and help me out? I know that's a weird thing to ask as we've just met, but being in this strange region... well, it is a rather lonely feeling.." Well, Donald was being cute, blushing and asking to join Avalon's journey. Sure was nice to be so gorgeous he vainly thought to himself.

They were at the Pokemon Center now Avalon turned to Donald, "Sure, you can adventure with me if you want." he gave a cheesy smile "Wait here." Avalon ran inside and in a few minutes he was back, Lark was all healed, he found Donald where he had been waiting nearby and walked over to him. "All set, lets go find us some pokemon Donny," he said giving Donny a nickname already, as a term of endearment. He gave Donny a shy smile "Well Mister, i saw your little fumble before, don't sweat it, any questions you have I'll clear up stright away. So, here's the answer to the first one, yes, I'm gay." Avalon blushed as the two of them set off looking for a fight or something, maybe a Rattata anything really. "By the way, someone gave this to me, its yours," he said handing Donny a long thin package.

Donald really didn't have any idea what could have been going through Avalon's mind, and yes, he had tried to cover up the fumbles he'd made when he talked but clearly to no avail. Thankfully, Avalon didn't call him on it or wouldn't. At least, Donald hoped he wouldn't. Using his free hand to slide some of his hair back, Donald hoped he hadn't embarrassed himself too badly or there would be no recovering from it. Trying to think of what else he could possibly say to try redeeming himself in front of such a total hottie, Donald was glad when they reached the Pokemon Center and told him to wait outside. At least by waiting outside he'd have some time to think. Nodding at Avalon to show that he'd wait, Donald looked around him holding onto his Igglybuff. He didn't like keeping her in her pokeball at all, but there were times when she became annoying. Sighing, he looked down at her for a moment. "Do you like Avalon?" he asked, rubbing the top of Igglybuffs head with his free hand which caused her to close her eyes like a contented cat. "I noticed he had an egg with him..." Donald said, musing a bit as his Igglybuff turned in his arms and looked up at him, waving her little arms to try getting his attention. When her trainer became lost in thought, he tended to zone out sometimes. "He came out of the forest.." Donald continued, trying to piece things together. "...and he was running, running as if something had been chasing him. What do you suppose happened Iggles?" he asked, calling his Igglybuff Iggles instead of the full Igglybuff.

"Iggly Ig Ig!" Donald Igglybuff said, hoping up to sit on Donald's shoulder. She liked sitting on Donald's shoulder because it made her feel tall. For Donald, he liked it to because it meant his hands were free for other things. Walking over to the edge of the path outside of the Pokemon Center, he sat on a log to wait. He knew healing a pokemon took a little bit of time, but he also had to wonder if Avalon was enquiring about the pokemon egg and which pokemon it could have possibly come from. Donald knew he'd be doing exactly that if it were him.

'What was I supposed to remember?' Donald asked himself silently, looking at the beauty of nature all around him. "My aunt said she'd have something waiting for me here, but where? And more importantly, what?" Continuing to wait for Avalon to come back, Donald looked up and watched the clouds slowly drifting past overhead. By the time Avalon got back, Donald had been looking toward the woods and wondering which pokemon would be the first one he and his beloved Igglybuff battled first. Admittedly she wasn't strong, but he was determined to prove that even an Igglybuff could be a champion. When Avalon came back out of the Pokemon Center, Donald stood and smiled, glad to see that Avalon had actually come back instead of just abandoning him there or something.

What surprised him was when he saw Avalon carrying a long, thin package in his hands as well. The package looked really long, nearly as long as Donald himself was tall. He could only wonder what was in it. His eyes drifted onto Avalon's own again and he nodded. "Good.." he said, breathing a sigh of relief as he took the package from Avalon, realising it must've been what his aunt sent him. "I'd hate to travel with a straight guy, especially a homophobic one. Life's hard enough without having to constantly defend who you are.." Gripping the package tightly and with Igglybuff still on his shoulder, Donald followed Lucius to look for some pokemon to fight. He really didn't mind that Avalon had brought up his fumbling embarrassment when he'd been tongue tied, but Donald was trying to forget the horrific scene of it. "Did you say someone sent this to me?" he asked, feeling the package in his hand. "Whatever it is feels quite hard, and somewhat familiar..."

Stopping in his tracks, Donald hastily ripped open the package to reveal a very beautiful
broomstick. "Great..." he mumbled. "It isn't bad enough that my aunt thinks she's a witch and studies magic. She's trying to get me into it..." Looking the broom over, Donald sighed again. "I don't know if I should thank her or send it back. I've seen movies about witches, even dreamed about being one. If I really was a witch, I'd love the flying most of all... I don't know why my aunt has to tease me like this.." Holding the broomstick in his hand, Donald turned to Lucius. "Do you think magics real?" he asked, not wanting to sound too stupid or anything. "Or do you think it's merely something fun for childrens stories?"

After the two of you decided to tell the woman off, she walked away with the most hurt look on her face. She was speechless, but then again, what do you say when two gay teen aged boys tell you to GTFO? Anywho, that was when you two introduced yourselves to one another; and this was the start of your new... friendship?

Of course, then the pointless babbling from Donald revealed his true reasoning for looking at Avalon earlier. It was a rather funny moment in history really, accidentally confessing your attraction to someone you just barely met, gosh, I can't even count how many times that... uhm... never mind, I'll just get back to the ref now. So as you two walked to the pokemon center, getting acquainted with one another you decided it would be great fun to venture across the region together; Que cute.

Eventually when you two reached the pokemon center, Avalon darted inside and healed his pokemon, coming out soon after. In the connotative and denotative sense of the phrase. Within just moments of exiting the center Avalon confessed to Donald his homosexuality and blushed, and somehow through his blushing the egg reacted to the heat. It actually began to dimly glow, not enough to really be noticed, but it was definitely something that meant it would hatch, and soon.

Anywho, the two of you were walking down the path in Nogou for quite some time until curiosity got the best of Donald. In a flash he tore open the wrapping of whatever was sent to him, only to reveal a nice old-fashioned... broomstick? What the eich? Oh! Your aunt thought that she was a witch? That's cool I guess, I bet if you caught yourself a psychic type you could use that broomstick to fly.

Anywho, before Lucius could answer something caught BOTH of your attention. The egg in Lucius' arms was shaking ferociously, and literally hopped out of his arms onto the ground where it began to glow an amazingly bright white color. And suddenly the egg began to take a new shape, something more... animal like. Suddenly, you heard the thin bark of a dog as the white exploded off and you were left with a young puppy pokemon;

:houndour Houndour :male Level 1

However, in all the excitement the two of you failed to notice the rustling bushes nearby. Soon enough, a horrible evil leapt from the bushes of the forest and attacked!... Or well... they scared the little houndour, but they really aren't that terrifying.

Rainbows and sunshine.
Avalon was shocked when the egg started to shake, he looked at it before it hopped out of his arms. He thought it was going to break and made a move to catch it, but it wasn't breaking, it was hatching. Avalon stared in amazment at this, he had never seen an egg hatch before and it was kind exciting watching this happen before him. What made it even better was the fact that the pokemon inside this egg was his, he prepared a pokeball so that he could capture his newly hatched companion. It barked, 'Ooo...' Avalon thought 'Its a dog pokemon' and sure enough in a burst of white light, a Houndour was siting in front of them. Small cute and defenceless, Avalon's poketech beeped into response.

Dark Pokemon
In the wild, Houdour hunt in packs to take down prey often much larger than itself. They are very loyal and protective of one another, and won't abandon a pack member if they are hurt. They are preditory and often eat smaller pokemon and communicate with a range of different barks and howls.



Rustling nearby drew Avalon's attention, two pokemon lept from the bushes on the side of the path and took the 'I'm a gangster cause im twice as strong as you are' pose. Houndour gave a terrified bark and fled to the safety of Avalon's leg. Avalon bent and gave him a pat "Its okay little guy," he said. Houndour glared at the pokemon, it was obviously not scared but startled by their sudden appearance. In fact Houndour looked a little bit mad at them. He had a type advantage against these two pokemon which were a Cherubi and a Bellsprout from what Avalon could remember. "You can take them, how about you give it a shot aye? I'll assist you," he said taking Nails pokeball off his belt and releasing the tough little Nidoran. Nails walked over to Houndour and gave him a little nudge with his horn, Houndour nipped at Nidoran, horns hurt. "Now Nails, be nice, this is..." Avalon paused thinking of a suitable name for his new pokemon "...Kindle. He's new on the team and I want you to show him that these pokemon are just pushovers."

Nails gave a little nod, "Nido" he said to the Houndour, which was an apology for the little nudge. Kindle seemed to accept the apology and then the two pokemon turned to the grass pokemon. Avalon checked the moveset for Houndour in his Poketech. "Ember, Leer... Beat Up? Wow, Kindle must have gotten a Egg move... sweet." Avalon turned his poketech off, not even bothering to check the info on these two pokemon. "Okay Nails, use Peck on Cherubi, and Kindle you use Ember of Cherubi as well but watch out for Nails." he said, he turned to Donny "Im counting on you and Iggles to bounce the crap out of that Bellsprout" he said with a wink.

Donald watched as the egg in Avalon's arms began to glow and then began to fall toward the ground. His immediate reaction was to drop the broom and try catching the egg so that it wouldn't break. Sinking to his knees in an attempt to catch it, it slipped through Donald's hands and landed on the ground. Of course Donald heard the bark and he watched from a close perpective as cracks formed in the eggs shell and then the eggs disappeared, leaving a small Houndour there. Blinking a few times, he'd barely smiled at the smile dog before he heard some rustling nearby and saw the small dog run and hide behind Avalon's leg. Turning his head to look in the direction he'd heard the rustling coming from, Donald saw a Bellsprout and a Cherubi walking out of the bushes toward them. Standing up, Donald reached up and lifted Igglybuff from his shoulder, looking her in the eyes.

"I don't care what you're counting on..." he said, not wanting his Igglybuff to be hurt. "With your little Houndour and Nidoran you basically have this battle in the bag. I don't need Igglybuff getting hurt, she is only a baby rabbit after all..." Having said those words, Donald got an idea. The idea caused him to grin wickled as he turned Igglybuff around so she could see the Bellsprout and Cherubi. Instantly, Igglybuff's mouth began to water. "Look what just arrived, Iggles.." Donald said, eyes twinkling with mischief. "A fruit and a flower. Your lunch is here..." he said, setting Igglybuff down so she was sitting on her bottom. "Use bounce to knock that flower back into the ground, then eat it as you please...." he said, telling Igglybuff what to do even though eating both the flower and the fruit pokemon were exactly what Igglybuff was thinking as well.

Tearing his eyes from Igglybuff, Donald looked down at the Houndour and Nidoran by Avalon's legs. "Nails.." he said, being polite to Avalon's pokemon. "....make sure Kindle knows never to eat Iggles, okay? She's the only pokemon I have and she's just a baby." He then turned his eyes on the newly hatched Houndour called Kindle. "And if I ever see you even chewing on Iggles, you're in deep trouble, got it?" As Donald had been speaking, his Igglybuff had been bouncing, building up her strength. Licking her lips eagerly, she sprung high into the air, determined to get her lunch.

Well this situation isn't awkward at all. I mean, how often do you see, let alone possess, such a violent Igglybuff? I have to say that even I was surprised at what an appetite the little ball of fluff had. I suppose everything has to something though. Anyway, after you (Donald) delivered your warning to Avalon's Pokémon, you unleashed your ravenous Iggles upon the flora before you.

Expedited by the hunger, she bounced, twirled and did a little dance, cutting in front of Nails and Kindle. She wasn't about to let them steal her meal after all. Kindle could always burn the remains if he wanted to anyway. Just as Iggles was at the climax of her advance on the Cherubi (Fruit is always more tasty than veggies don't ya know) and was going to make her descent upon the fruit's head, she met the ground with a distasteful thud. But where in the heck did the Cherubi go?

Although Iggles hadn't caught it in her little dance, you happened to catch sight of the flash of yellow that darted out from an off-road bush. It was a Pikachu, and it tackled the Cherubi to the ground. The two tumbled together a fair distance across the road, and eventually they were in another bush on the other side. You heard a munch and something being smashed, followed by a really weird slurping noise. The Pikachu then stumbled out onto the road in a drunken daze and a pink liquid smeared over its lips.

Apparently, you can get high off of Cherubi blood, or at least that's what appeared to be the side effect afflicting the little rodent. So, now that you more competition, whatever will you do? Is a drunk Pikachu really on your 'to catch' list?
