Welcome to Gaia! ::

As Christian was about to battle, and SIV portal opened up and swallowed him whole.

Tommy rushed in before Ginji without a second thought, his eyes filled with the wonder before him. "Whoahhhhh!" Tommy yelled ecstatically, picking up chargestone after blue glowing chargestone. It would seem research would happen soon. Once he had grabbed his fill (which he was unable to do with the Salamence crystals), the scientist stowed his new rocks with a sense of triumph. However, the earth started shaking in front of Tommy. With enough sense to jump backwards, he dodged the claws of a playful Drilbur. "Heeeeey, a Drilbur!" Tommy shouted like a little kid who recieved candy from a stranger. Wait, that's not right. Like a little kid who recieved candy from his parents. Tommy released Grovyle for this fight. The battle heated up as Tommy added Drilbur to his Pokedex.

Grovyle launched a quick Pound, which sent the small mole into the ground. It quickly stood up and performed a Rapid Spin, blowing loose debris into the eyes of Grovyle, before actually ramming into the grass type itself. This caught Grovyle off guard, but used the closeness of the two to land a hard False Swipe attack. This sent Drilbur into the air, with minimal strength left to go on. It used it's downward momentum to Dig into the ground. "Here, catch." TOmmy ordered, and Grovyle held the empty Pokeball to the ground. As soon as the digger came up for an attack, it smashed into the open pokeball, and was sucked in. Three clicks and a ding later, Drilbur was caught. Tommy caught the returning ball and put it on his belt. Tommy returned Grovyle as well. However, a small fish-like pokemon came out and zapped the daylights out of Tommy. Another battle started up. Tommy tossed out his newly aquired pokemon. And added the small fish, a Tynamo, to his pokedex.

Digger the Drilbur was attacked by a weak Thunder-Wave, which had no effect. A Metal Claw was thrown, hitting the Tynamo square on. The levitating Tynamo rushed up, however, and Tackle'd Digger, causing the already weary pokemon to faint. However, Tommy was certain he'd done enough damage, and threw out a Great Ball for good measure. Of course, in three clicks and a ding, the Tynamo was caught. Tommy also hooked this pokemon onto his belt after returning it. Tommy played the White Flute just in case. And, of course, yet another pokemon appeared. After registering it onto his Pokedex, a Joltic, a third battle electrified the air (punned (which is, in itself, another pun (pwned))).

Tommy sent out his newly aquired Tynamo, which he name Gilligan, for whatever odd reason. Gilligan jumped the gun, and Thunderwaved the spider (tick?), paralyzing it. The Joltic was unable to move. Gilligan then used a relentless barage of Tackles while the Joltic was unable to move. A Fury Cutter attack landed nicely on Tynamo, who managed to hang on. Tommy tossed another Great Ball... Wiggle... Wiggle... *burst* The Joltic escaped!! Finally, with a well-aimed Slash, Tynamo went down. Grovyle came out and immediately False-Swiped the poor electrospider. A second Fury Cutter slashed heavily at Grovyle, doing a substantial amount of damage. Tommy tried a shiny ball (now out of Great Balls). Wiggle... Wiggle... Spaztastic shudder... Click. Tommy had managed to catch the pokemon in question. He attached this too to his belt. His belt was now full.

"Phew!" Tommy hollered quietly (a paradox), relieved his ordeal was over. He inconspicuosly tip-toed to the whole in the ground, not wanting to tip off his mates that he was trying to go down alone to explore more. However, when he got to the ladder and began to climb down, his foot slipped, and Tommy plumetted towards the bottom of the next floor, yelling "Ahhhhhhhhhh!" The whole way down. One could hear a sickening impact and a yelp as a dust cloud plumed out of the whole where Tommy had entered.

"Yes sir!"
Memo hopped into the portal along with Cerza and his eyes grew wide a she peered into the amazing cave.
"Chargestone...huh."
Cerza chimed happily as she pointed out that Memo was about to be attacked.
"Wha!"
The boy backhand springed away and let out Azura and Bon Qui Qui, his Bulbasaur.
Azura(Nidorina) and BQQ(Bulbasaur) VS Joltik and Boldore
"Azura! Bon Qui Qui! Use Venomous Energy Ball!"
Bon Qui Qui used Energy Ball as Azura put a large amount of Poison Sting barbs in it and it was shot out like a bullet towards Boldore and KO'd it before it had a chance to move, but just as Boldore was gone Joltik had trapped Azura inside a stick web filled with sparks!
"Hmmm..."
Memo seemed to like this pokemon quite a bit.
"Bon Qui Qui use Magica-"
Memo was cut off abruptly because Bon Qui Qui used a move that was classified as "Grass Column" and nearly took out the Joltik!
"Pokeball! Go!"
1..2...3!
"Hooray! Todays has been so amazing hehehe!"

As Ginji arrived back at HQ, a box was waiting for him.

-Dear Team Aqua,
Thank you so much for all of your help. Here is a gift for you all.

-Juniper.

He opens the box and reveals a set of Pokeballs containing either Tepig, Oshowott or Snivy. "Feel free to take one when you come back." he smiled as he headed off to do some paperwork.

Memo sighed and gave the Plasma Grunts a wink as they headed off into the sky. He and Cerza sighed with a happy smile as they drew themselves into the rocks of the cave to commemorate the moment.
"I guess it's time to go home hehe."
With that they had slowly walked into the portal and headed to the HQ where they sat down and poked at at pokeball which held an Oshowatt.
"Say, Ginji! What about these deadbolted pokeballs!?"

Arekku walked to the box, not sure what they were. He picked up a pokeball and tossed it revealing an Oshowott, as a matter of fact, the one he petted earlier as it seemed to remember him. "Oh hey there cutie!" He picked up the pokemon spinning her around, "Belle." He chirped he first name that came to mind. She seemed to like the name extremely well and hugged him back. The Solosis, Tynamo and Lillipup were all called out of their balls and given names, "Meme." He pointed at the Lillipup who had her Tongue out of her mouth adorably, "Sicily." He pointed to Solosis who danced about his name spelling it over his head using the jelly, "And... Donson." He pointed at he Tynamo.

"Yes! They are!" His Cottonee, whom he names Briyanna, brushed his neck with her cotton-like fur, an extremely ticklish spot, causing him to giggle maniacally. "And so many of them, almost a full team of six I've got here! Lemesee what you got!" He said excitedly.
