So it's raining. Yeah, it's raining. You are near the ocean, a little rain couldn't hurt, right? Well, this is how your first step in Alternia is going to start: with rain. C'est la vie, mon ami? Yes, I speak French. What of it punk? Eh hem, well let's see what we could do in the glorious rain. Well, there's the shop you're standing in front of since you are hiding hiding under the awning from the rain. If you glanced up, the sign would read 'Millenia PokeMart'. Well, it wasn't so unusual but maybe Drifloon would like something? At that moment, a particulary power gust of wind blew by. Thankfully Drifloon was safely in his Poke ball at the moment or you would be chasing after a flailing balloon. As you stood huddled under the awning, a girl came running up and stood under it with you. It looked like she had been crying but the only evidence of this was just her red eyes. She wiped at her face quickly and sniffled loudly. She was about your age and soaking wet from the rain. In one hand, she held a dripping wet sketchbook. |

"Alright, we can top that! Sparkardy, Smokescreen!" Eric called out. The lizard began to cough, and then let out a large cloud of black smoke from it's mouth. It continued to pour it out as Uindo and Houndour (By the way, plan on naming this guy any time soon? Try dog names..) ran forward for the attack. They stopped at first, but decided to run in anyway. Not knowing what could happen in the 0 visability could, Eric and Athan waited anxiously for results. --Inside the cloud-- Houndour could no longer see, but it's senses where that of a dog, and they made up for the lack of vision. He closed his eyes, and listened carefully. The first thing he heard was a scratching or dragging sound coming from his left. Thinking for a minute, he reailzed it was Uindo, with his strings dragging the floor. He then began to sniff at the air. Getting past the smell of the charcoal on his own body, he smelt the scent of something burning. This was no doubt the Sparkardy. Still blinded, Houndour ran at the smell, and right when he was close, bashed into it with a Strike (Since it doesn't know Tackle...). However, what he thought was Sparkardy turned out to just be a plain fire, probably a leftover from what kindled when it used Flame Wheel before. Getting a new scent of fire, Houndour sensed that it was where he was standing before. Damnit, the lizard had enhanced senses, too! A squeal of pain could be heard as the lizard drove a Flame Wheel right into Uindo, now unprotected by his fire-absorbing partner. Houndour had fallen into a trap! Rushing to the noise, Houndour saw that the smoke was starting to clear.... -Outside the cloud-- The two trainers could hear running around in the cloud. As much as Athan's ears didn't want to hear it, his balloon Pokemon let out a cry of pain, and the next thing he saw was a fiery lizard wrapped up in a wheel, driving his Pokemon backwards, out of the smoke. Houndour followed behind it quickly, and using the now doubled fire power it had, shot his Ember attack. Even though it wasn't very effective against other fire types, the bonus he got from levels ahead and his ability about made up for it. Once Sparkardy had finished with it's fiery death roll, it was pounded in the back by an Ember attack. By now, all three Pokemon had now left the smoke cloud, and everyone was slightly damaged, except Houndour. Flash Fire is a gift from god, it is.

Athan groaned, another painful Smokescreen attack. Even though in the previous battles he was the one using the attack it still proved to be a pain in the side as Smokescreen could be used as an ally for both its user and the enemy. Athan bit his lip, he just hoped that Uindo and Houndour could overcome the Smokescreen and make a win in the battle. Then again Athan couldn't see within the cloud so he had no idea what was even going on, him getting a Sparkardy depended on him winning this battle; then something came to him: Houndour. The Pokemon was a dog and dogs tended to have better senses than human, it may have been possibly that Houndour could see through the cloud...or better yet smell his way through the cloud. Still even after his assumption Athan had no clue what could be going on inside the cloud. All he could hear was the running of feet and unfortunately a scream from Uindo. Uindo, his proud little Drifloon must have been injured inside of the smoke cloud, Athan was no worried about his little best friend; Houndour had to take the battle over and avenge his teammate! Athan continued to watch the smoke cloud when suddenly the Pokemon came storming out of it. Sparkardy was using another Flame Wheel, how Athan was beginning to hate that attack. On the bright side however Houndour was pretty much immune to it...but Uindo was not. Athan's worried expression however changed to a smile when Houndour managed to nail the enemy Sparkardy with a Ember. In the regular battle between two fire-types using Ember didn't sound like a pretty good move, but thanks to Athan's ace: Flash Fire, it could pretty much turn things around. "Alright! Uindo and Firebark lets get ready to go on the offensive!" Athan shouted, he didn't even realized that instead of calling his Houndour...Houndour he had called the Pokemon by a different name. It just so happened that while thinking of the next battle plan Athan managed to come up with a suitable nickname for his Hound Pokemon. The Pokemon was part fire-type and had a powerful Ember attack and Ember attacks normally come out of the mouth and so do barks...so Houndour was now named Firebark. "Firebark use Leer then follow up with another Ember!" commanded Athan. "Then Uindo, if your well enough to continue rush in with another Astonish attack!" Athan yelled out once more. There was no telling how this next round will go, he just hoped that Uindo was alright and that Firebark could hold his own even further. |

"Well, it looks like Smokescreen didn't work too well... Sparkardy, Flame Wheel the Drifloon again!" Well, this is getting kinda old.... Sucks when it's all early on and most Pokemon only know one or two moves.... But, let's see what'll happen. Sparkardy jumped back into his curled up position, and set himself ablaze once more. Spinning like a run-away tire, it dashed for the balloon Pokemon. Houndour, now named Firebark, jumped into action. preparing a Leer attack, it ran after the Sparkardy. As the lizard propelled itself into the air, Firebark jumped to get in the way of the blazing wheel. If it was just a bit faster, it would have made it completely. But, the Sparkardy had more speed behind it. It bashed into Uindo jsut as Firebark threw itself infront of the lizard, absorbing half of thr attack into his Flash Fire ability, but unfortunately, half also hit Drifloon. The baloon was thrown back a ways, and shuddered as it lifted itself back up. It wasn't looking too good.... Back to Firebark and Sparkardy, the both of them landed, facing each other. Houndour fired a Leer, then a powered Ember following as the Sparkardy cringed. Damage delt to both sides this turn.... But, Firebark was still untouched. And roaring to go. Uindo doesn't look like it'd last much longer.... Maybe thinking about the next Pokemon out would be a good idea. Although Flame Wheel isn't so good against fire types... It was still pretty damn strong. Maybe even Sketch worthy....

{Sorry about this late post, I have been going through some stuff lately...but then again that doesn't matter anymore.} Well we managed to survive that smokescreen, lets see if this next Flame Wheel will be a doozy. Athan thought before the Sparkardy made its move on Uindo, he didn't think that Uindo would be so defenseless in this battle. But then again his best friend was one of his strongest Pokemon either way, besides the fact he also had Houndour who was now named Firebark for his flaming attacks in the battle as well. Athan didn't feel as if he had a lot to worry about, it was a 2 vs. 1 battle and normally the team of 2 would come out on top. However when Firebark made his move on Sparkardy, it was completely too late. The flaming lizard crashed its body into Uindo, damaging the balloon Pokemon pretty good. Athan's eyes widened as he saw Uindo flung back that way, he hated to see Uindo damage as such. He couldn't stand to watch his first Pokemon and best friend be so hurt. "Uindo: return!" Athan immediately shouted, he couldn't allow Uindo to stand much more suffering. However if he wanted to win the battle he had only one more Pokemon that he could use: his Smeargle who was named Sakura. He could Sketch the Flame Wheel attack and use it against the Sparkardy or maybe int he future. He had no other choices: "Sakura let's go!" yelled Athan throwing her Pokeball towards the ground. "Alright here's the new battle plan, Houndour go in for a Ember and then Sakura use Sketch to sketch Sparkardy's Flame Wheel attack!" Athan yelled, he decided to wait another round for a super fire-combo, which was what he had in mind for Eric and his Sparkardy. |

Sakura burst forward from the red light with a quiet, peaceful expression on her face, hardly aware that she was in the middle of a battle. The painting puppy turned back and expected a similar warm smile from you, until you yelled your command to Firebark, which scared her slightly before she understood that this was a serious matter and a serious battle. She obviously could not know the great prize that you stood to win, but something about the way you were commanding Firebark around let her know that this was serious, and she was certain to Sketch that "Flame Wheel" attack perfectly. How hard could lighting herself on fire in the name of art be, anyway? Your Houndour was a little more battle ready at this time, and more than happy to run forward for a his super-charged ember, but still had the savoir-faire to wait his turn (he could be quite the gentleman despite his greedy side, apparently). After Eric shouted his worthless command of "Sparkardy! Quick, Smokescreen and tackle!” your newly-named Houndour was off, setting his sights on his targets not only before the Smokescreen had time to take effect but before Eric had even had time to enunciate its final syllable. Like a locomotive engine set in high gear, Firebark was slowly picking up speed as he raced in for an Ember, preparing to breathe fire all over the lizard as soon as he could see the whites in its eyes. With every step he took, his pace increased more, but the surrounding smoke was increasing at a similar rate; this wasn't bothering him, his mouth smoking all full of his pent-up Ember anyway. Sparkardy jumped forward as soon as Firebark approached, who timed his Ember a little late due to the smoke, but was quickly met with a face full of fire and a sprinting dog to deal. Houndour crashed into Sparkardy, who was trying to Tackle him, and Houndour emerged victorious thanks to his momentum. Sparkardy rolled back to the feet of his trainer, head hung in near defeat-- there wasn't much he could to do your well-trained Firebark, yet Eric still seemed curiously confident. Unfortunately for you, the only downside of the battle is that no Flame Wheel attack was actually used, and therefore Sakura had nothing to do but sit at your feet and look confused. As far as victories and losses go, however, Sakura's missed Sketch was not a huge loss compared to Firebark's victory. :sparkardy Level 10 13/45 68%VS Level 11 42/47 79%(Ember +3) (Damage done to Sparkardy: -6 to tackle, -4 to ember and -6 for Flash Fire) (Damage done to Houndour: -5 to tackle) Edited by Butterskenny63, Aug 8 2009, 04:35 PM.
