Safari Contest [Volcanic Tundra] - Closed

[Requiem of Whyspers]

Trishella entered the Safari Zone with her Fennekin at her heels. "Fen!" The little Pokemon yipped, eager and excited for the chance to get out here and battle things for real.

"I think we need to register first, don't we?" She asked of the person at the reception desk .

"Yes, ma'am. We need to monitor how many trainers enter and with what Pokemon in order to maintain the Safari Zone's Pokemon populations as well as to ensure that all trainers have left the area after the contest has ended." The attendant replied, pulling up a clipboard. "Name?"

"Trishella." Trish replied, already slightly annoyed.

"Interesting name. And Pokemon species." The attendant asked.

"Fennekin." Trish replied curtly.

"Exotic. Very good. You're free to enter. Once you've captured the Pokemon you want to enter, return here and wait for the bell to ring or until all other entrants have returned. Good Luck." The attendant stated, handing Trish three Safari Balls and pressing a button to unlock the door leading into the dark and terrifying environment set up for this contest. "I hope you're hiding a coat in those ponytails."

"What's that supposed to-" Trish asked, turning as she went through the door only to find it slamming shut behind her and trapping her and Idina in the dark tunnels.

"Feeeeen!" Idida exclaimed, releasing a small stream of flames onto a stick she saw nearby and picking up the now burning implement to provide a torch for her master.

"Thanks, Idina." Trish said as she took the torch from her Pokemon and held it up, revealing a Pokemon hiding in the shadows nearby.

Clara nervously enter the zone, shaking like leaf, spite her wearing a piece from Dante's winter line. She checked in with her one choice of pokemon, and headed in. the silver haired girl threw out Gabriel, her giant Tyrantrum. The big beast would lower its head allowing the trainer to climb on its back. "Gabriel, check the ice before you step on it." With nod he would gently put down his large foot, and push down. Not even the sound of a crack. "Its okay boy lets go!" and like that the two stopped their way down the icy planes.  

[Atlantis_Darts]

Darts lands, recalling his exhausted Honchkrow who practically falls off of his shoulder and onto the ground panting and wheezing from having to carry the bulky weight of the bigger hybrid. "Alright... we're going to have to do something about that soon..." The gambler mutters, extending a hand with a Pokeball to recall the exhausted flying-type. He registers his information at the front desk and then takes off, out into the wild of the Safari Zone. For a volcanic place, it seemed pretty tranquil, the snow crunching underneath the jacketed figure's feet with each step as he headed off into the woods. Suddenly, there's a rustling in the brush to his left, and Darts turns to face it, a Pokeball in his hand again from the inside pocket of his jacket. It rustles wildly for a second, before revealing...

The Pokemon Trish spotted was a fairly common one to the Johto region but not one she was particularly interested in, especially given how common it was in Kalos as well. She was going to simply ignore the Sentret but Idina decided to trap it with Fire Spin in order to simply walk away and let the flames do their job. They'd barely taken two steps before the Sentret squeaked in defiance and flopped to the ground, it's stamina completely drained by the heat.

"Maybe we'll find something else that's a bit more.....interesting later on." The girl gave a hopeful smile to her Pokemon as they walked down the dark tunnels, eyes peeled for signs of movement.

To this day, Amaranth wasn't sure why she always ended up going on these. At least, it seemed more often than she cared for, and the place itself was odd. Cold, too, but she could deal with that. She looked around in the odd zone, wondering what she'd find.  

[Isaac Hawking]

Isaac entered the zone, his Noibat perched on his shoulder, greedily devouring the sandwich held in its tiny paws. Smiling at Konrad, Isaac double checked his bag. Pokeballs? Check. Bait? Check. His sandwich? Check. Slinging the pack over his unoccupied shoulder, Isaac cast a glance at the tiny bat, that was still munching away happily at its lunch. "Lets go, Konrad. Lets see what we find." Laughing at the food muffled reply, Isaac headed off into the zone.

The towering T-rex would make its way across the plane of ice, making sure to stay clear of any geysers that litter the area. A burst of hot hairs bursts from the ground a few feet in front of Gabreils maw. He snapped at the air, like a dog trying to bite a spray of water.

finding the heat a fletchling would come down and circle the hot air. The poor thing got too close, and was just another snack for Gabriel. Gabriel was always hungry, so Clara called it smiting when he snatched a life.

With his belly barely full, the two kept walking.

Seeing a rather young Sentret nibbling on a berry, Amaranth felt bad about the notion of readying a ball. She doubted there'd be any real way for it to fight back, but she also knew her track record. She didn't need to look any further than her Kangaskhan for proof.

In the name of defense, she sent out her Yanma and decided to try and take it easy. If, by easy, one assumes a Sonic Boom wasn't going to be the most horrible thing for the Sentret to deal with. It dropped its berry at once and let out a loud cry, not sure what it had managed to upset as it turned around.

It saw Amaranth and her bug shortly after, and was more than a little nervous about this. It didn't know what they wanted, or why they gave the assault they gave. It even tried to run away at once before Yanma zoomed in to tackle it, sending it flying back a bit.

Already, it was struggling to get up, which was more than enough for Amaranth to call off any further attacking and recall Yanma for now. "I'm sorry..." She spoke up to the Pokemon, moving its half-eaten berry closer and deciding to leave it be as she resumed her exploration.  

[Darksol88]

It hadn't even taken a minute before she saw a Magmar in the distance, quickly taking off elsewhere. She really didn't want to chance fighting that with her Yanma, not if she could help it.  

[Isaac Hawking]

The traveling pair wandered the geyser spotted tundra, Isaac gazing over the vast area, searching for Pokemon. Konrad was still distracted by his lunch, munching away at its lunch. A nearby Smoochum peered at the interesting scene on Isaac's shoulder as he passed. Giving the tiny Pokemon a quick pat on the head, Isaac continued to head deeper into the zone, his Noibat still latched onto his shoulder.
