Jasper approached the leaves in a none to quiet manner. It's more announcing his presence for battle. The pokemon within the leaves immediately reacted by springing itself out from the leaves. "Jasper, use tackle," William ordered. The bulbasaur charged in for a tackle that hit the small poor weedle. Just that one attack and the weedle was knocked out. It seemed weaker than the weedle they had encountered earlier. Though weedle was still dangerous for the poison they carried. William preferred to be alert when facing pokemon with such skill.

"Will! Jasper!" Mur ran to the front while broadcasting his voice to their mind. "Next one's my turn,okay?"the espurr said. He had not have his battle yet. It's simply not fair that the bulbasaur already got two fights. William had a worried expression as he thought. The pause made Mur pout. "Will! I can do this," Mur told him with clear irritation of how William needed to think before agreeing. "as long as it's not poisonous one," William expressed his concern. He did not want Mur to get poisoned. "I will be fine as long as I knock the opponent off before they can attack," Mur sighed. He thought William sometimes went overboard with his cautiousness. With the end of conversation, Mur took his place by Jasper's side as he knew he's not as familiar with a forest as the grass type.

William stopped when Jasper appeared to be scared of something. He couldn't sense nor sees what was wrong. Their surrounding was the same trees and leaves covered ground as usual. They did encounter a lot more weedle on their way, none they couldn't handle. "Bulba . . . bulbasaur," Jasper's word was quieter than normal as he looked around which worried William. "What's wrong?" he whispered as he couldn't help being alerted. Jasper replied to him with gesturing upward with his vine to the cluster of trees beyond. William could make out yellow creature hanging that was concealed mostly by the tree leaves. Considering the pokemon they encountered so far, weedle, then the yellow should be kakuna. Ah, yeah, that was dangerous. Beedril is a possibility. William thought as he nodded. "Will? what's going on?"Mur asked in quite loud volume. Thankfully, it was telepathy and so did not have any actual sound. "there might be beedril nest ahead, I think we should leave this area," William explained to Mur in hushed voice. Mur understood enough that beedril swarm was bad as they are highly territorial pokemon. "Jasper, try to find way out of their territory," William told the bulbasaur.

The group proceeded with caution. Jasper scouted out the way for any sign of weedle or kakuna. If there was a number of them, then that side was not the area they should head to. It took more time to move, but they didn't mind as safety was better than rushing to trouble. Their surrounding appeared to be more sparse with tree over time and there was more grass than leaves. Smell of flower sometimes was carried by the breeze. Even a butterfree was seen.
It took a moment for Mur to remember that they had encountered a wild pokemon. "Wild pokemon found!" the espurr pounced upon butterfree. "Free free," the butterfree was startled to fly away. "no, you don't," Mur chased it. The action caught William by surprise as he was used to treat butterfree as harmless pokemon to pass by. He had forgotten that as a trainer now, he could have his pokemon fight it. William ran after Mur that had went to chase the butterfree. It was vexing for Mur to run off like that.

A butterfree was flying away with an espurr following her from behind. It could fly, but the low branch was hindering its movement. That's why the espurr was able to outspeed it. "Take this," Mur unsheathed his claws and used scratch on the butterfree. The butterfree cried out at the gash the scratch had left it. It had determined that fleeing was not an a good idea. "free butterfree," the pokemon cried out as it tackled the espurr, only to have the espurr caught its head and began scratching. The butterfree couldn't take it anymore that it fainted.
"Rawr, how's that?" Mur proudly declared his victory. He was expecting William and Jasper behind him, but what he found was empty space. "huh?" Mur stared. "Where did they go?" he asked bewildered.

Mur turned his head right and left to check his surrounding. Which way he came from before? he thought. It all appeared the same no matter how many time he thought about it. Maybe if he went to a higher ground, he would be able to see better. Mur started to climb a tree. This should be high enough, Mur thought as he stepped forward into one of the tree's branch that he judged strong enough to support him. Tree leaves obstructed his view though, so he tried to swatted them away, then . . . he hit something. A kakuna jumped to attack after being disturbed. "Espaaaaa!!!" Mur screamed in surprise and started scratching the pokemon to defend himself. He wasn't aware of what he was attacking or how much a mess he was creating up on the branch. The kakuna fell down, not without knocking a bird nest that was present there too.

William ran without minding to be wary of where he stepped on. He trusted Jasper who ran in front of him to track Mur. There was nothing to clue in where Mur had gone to in this forest, at least, none that William could tell. Jasper appeared to know where to go when they started to chase after Mur, so he followed his lead instead. They came to a stop when they found a fainted butterfree. "That should be the same one Mur chased. Mur should be nearby . . . " William spoke out his thought out. They didn't came across Mur, so where did he had gone to.
A rustle from above him answered his musing. A kakuna fell down to the ground along with angry chirp up above. It caused William to naturally seek out the source. He looked up to the trees to see a pidgey and Mur. The espurr's movement was sluggish. William judged that Mur was tired and he shouldn't expect him to fight. "Mur, Jump. Jasper, prepare for battle," William shouted his instruction quickly. he sensed the urgency of the situation and prioritized that Mur to flee and left the fight to Jasper, while he would have to catch Mur.

Mur was relieved to see William. The pesky pidgey had been trying to peck him and he honestly had no more energy to fight it. William's command for him to jump though, made him hesitated. It was a long way down and pidgey could have attacked him when he was in mid-air. Yet, he also did not have any other idea of what to do. "you better catch me, Will !!" Mur shouted at William when he finally leaped down. The pidgey did not waste time to dive after him. It was one persistent pidgey. Did he really annoy it that badly? Mur mused at the incoming attack. He was completely at the mercy of the bird.

William saw that pidgey did not give up. uh-oh, he thought in panic of what to do. His reflex made him searched for something to hinder the pidgey. His hand found an empty pokeball on his belt that he threw at the pidgey. It missed due to the bird dodging, but it stopped from going after Mur. William took the chance to return Mur to his pokeball, while pidgey had dived down toward him. He had to use another pokeball to prevent a tackle to the face. The pidgey hit the pokeball and got sucked in. it wasn't sufficient though, as the pokemon broke free as soon as the pokeball hit the ground. "Jasper, tackle," he ordered before the pidgey aim for him again. He ducked to the ground when Pidgey came for him. It was then when the bird was lowest to the ground that Jasper tackled the bird. It was sent off course and skidded to a stop on the ground, unconscious.

William breathed in relief that the battle's over. That was intense. He was glad that it did not goes wrong at all when so many things could have gone wrong. His aim to return Mur could have missed, his pokeball would have not hit at all, or Jasper did not tackle the pidgey in time. Let's not do something like that again. He needed to have some word with Mur that cause it all.
Tossing a pokeball, William released Mur out. He was caught with sympathy of how ruffled Mur looked. it's his fault, I must not show pity. It is a trainer's job to be strict when needed, William recited what he had learned from school of how to train pokemon. One must not be too lenient. "Mur," William started. The tone made the espurr felt uneasy. "You are not in a safe place like our home anymore. If you ran off like that and get into danger, we might not be able to save you. That pidgey could have easily be an ursaring. it's fortunate that it's only a pidgey," William scolded Mur and warned him of how dangerous the forest was. "Next time, be mindful of your surrounding more," William continued with a softer tone, meant to ease Mur down. "Show me your wound now," He then took out potion to spray on Mur's injury.
Potion could heal injury, but not the stress and fatigue a pokemon had. That's why he offered Mur, "want to take a break in the pokeball?" Mur quickly shook his head left and right to deny. "I can still go on," Mur straightened himself to show William he was still fine. Mur was more meek though as he still felt guilty. His wish to not let Jasper got all the attention won the fact that he was weary.
William saw that despite Mur's action, he's not in top condition anymore. The battle and walking had wore the espurr down and so was he. "I think . . . we should look for a place to set a camp," William said as he stole a glance at his pokegear. It's nearly afternoon, oh and he had a message. He would ignore the message for now and focus on finding a place. Traveling at night was harder than during the day afterall. He did not want to risk wandering in darkness. "A place with water would be good, so Agate can get some training too," he muttered while he checked his pokenav's map for landmark for lake,river or spring.

Gadget the like of pokenav truly made his journey easier. Such as its map function that was supported with gps and terrain information. It would only be helpful as long as it still have signal though. William made use of it to locate a river within Viridian Forest. They had only met another kakuna on the way which Jasper got rid off with a single tackle. He thought the forest had awfully a lot of weedle and kakuna, since he encountered them often.
Their trip ended as the trees became more scarce and opened up to a river bank. The water was flowing gently, perfect to let Agate out, while the earth near the river was wet. He would need to find a patch of dry ground if he wanted to light a campfire. Tree roots poked out from the ground here and there that would made people trip if they weren't careful. Well, it's not that good a place to set a camp, but after he inspected the place, it would do.

Sable grinned a bit at Darren's request and pulled out the camera she had used to get the picture of Moltres."Sure~"she told the teen as she turned on the camera and got it set up so the trainer would be able to view the pictures on the memory card. She even got it to the picture in question before handing the digital camera over to him."It's lopsided, but it's still pretty obvious that there's a moltres in that pic."Sable laughed a bit at that since, although she had tried to get a good one, the situation meant the picture wasn't exactly the best. Still, someone looking at it wouldn't be able to deny what they had seen.

X'D Well, I'm sure whoever you ultimately end up giving it too will have much fun occur with a shadow- and person-controlling pokemon at their fingertips.
And meanwhile Sable is glowering while she sits and gets bandaged up. X'D Mostly because she can't give an argument that doesn't make her still seem like the bad guy. And ah, he wouldn't be as bad as Sable would be. XD The biggest reason being she doesn't have a problem with spanking being a punishment. Not necessarily her go-to punishment, but it's an option on the board.
Also, and I perfectly understand if you can't give me a definitive answer one way or the other yet, but are you guys gonna see if this guild can survive a Halloween event this year? Because if so, it'll mean I'll have to take extra effort with Sable and that I might even have to try doing her next couple of gym battles without a mod controlling the gym leader. Mostly because odds are if there is an event, I'll want to throw her into it, and that means I'll want to have a comfortable cushion between her team's current levels and her level cap.

William approached the river first. "Agate," he called out as he released the feebas into the river. The pokemon materialized in the water. She took stock of her surrounding briefly, then turned to face William, waiting for instruction. "We are taking lunch break, before proceeding to training," William told Agate after he saw that Agate was waiting for him to speak. He left her to arrange for lunch. It's nothing much, merely bread he had bought that morning. Like usual, he distributed it to Jasper and Mur and fed Agate. He sat himself on a picnic mat, since the camp hadn't been set up yet.
while taking a break, he took the chance to check his pokegear. There was a message from Snow he hadn't replied. "Wow the kanto, I never thought id see a day you become a trainer. Also Feebas evolve from beauty"That was the content of it. He had a feeling it did not come across as much a surprise as he had expected it to be. Then the answer of how a feebas evolve took his attention. "Beauty? how does that works?" he typed. William couldn't imagine him grooming the feebas. An evolution triggered by constant grooming sounds odd to him. "I can kind of understand why it's hard to get approval to take a journey. Even a pidgey can be quite dangerous, My pokemon takes care of it though. so how are you doing now?" William typed more before he sent it.

Darren eagerly took the camera from Sable as she got to the picture of the moltres. It was indeed a lopsided image, but that was to be expected given the way Sable had to stealthily take the picture without alerting the moltres, but even though it was lopsided, Darren didn't care. In fact it gave the photo a cool sort of angle effect, in Darren's opinion anyways. Not to mention the moltres in the picture was very clear, and Darren was filled with awe. "Yeah, it's a great shot." He agreed, handing Sable the camera back. "Think you could send it to me?" He asked, not sure how they would go about it, but maybe Sable could upload the pictures to her PC and then mail it to him.
In the meantime... Darren looked into his bag and pulled out a small jar of honey. "Hey, give me just a second, I think I see a honey tree." He mentioned, making his way over to a golden colored tree. "Heh... I've always wanted to try this." He thought aloud, bringing his honey jar to the tree before pouring it's contents onto his hand and smearing it over the smooth bark. "Have you ever done this before?" Darren asked Sable curiously. It was clear he was very excited, though he probably looked a bit odd. As he finished lathering the tree, he backed away, licking his fingers. Flynn sniffed at the honey and grinned, making to lick it off himself, but Darren quickly stopped him. "F-flynn, no! Leave that alone! Here." He offered the jar over to his Charmeleon so he could lick the rest of the honey out clean.

Heehee aw xD Yeah yeah, I could see that. Darren would definitely be against doing any sort of corporeal punishment unless it was absolutely necessary, and even then his wife would need to be the one who ended up doing it because he just wouldn't have the stomach for it more than likely. >w>
And yes, we are working on a halloween event, I can't give many details, because we're still working on it and nothing's guaranteed. It won't be a trapped event, nor do I believe it will require constant rolling to utilize the event to it's max potential like the Tanabata, but if you would like to write up Sable's next few battles just in case, that's fine :0

Sable couldn't help smiling at Darren's comment. That smile changed into a grin as the teen handed back the camera."Thanks~ And sure, no problem. If you give me an address to send it to, I can email it to you while we check in at Pewter's pokemon center,"she told the male, although her cheer was less because he was interested in the picture and more because it gave her an excuse to ask for a way to contact him without just coming straight out and asking for his number or something. It was always weird to try and do that, at least for her. Especially when it was with someone she met fairly recently. Yeah, sure, she managed it with that Sonoko girl, but that was for business reasons, not personal ones.
When Darren suddenly dug out a jar of honey and went over to an odd tree, Sable was admittedly confused."A... Honey tree?"the teen muttered as she followed Darren. Jin followed along as well, but paused briefly and turned his head a bit to glance off to the side. He stood there watching for a few seconds before pursing his lips and finishing his walk over to the tree Darren and Sable were standing near."No, not really, but I think I get the idea. It's to attract wild pokemon, right?"the female trainer asked as if she didn't notice Jin's hesitation in walking over.
Jin nodded a bit at his trainer's question."Mostly, yeah. More often than not you'll find a bug enjoying the free lunch if you leave it be for a bit, although there are some other pokemon that like the treat as well,"he told her, then gave Darren a light smile."Were you wanting to hang around a while to see what shows up?"he asked, looking fairly calm as he spoke. His voice, though, sounded a bit tense despite his attempts at being friendly and happy. He only realized that little slip up after he spoke, and mostly because Sable had suddenly started frowning.
The teen had been willing to brush off the fox pokemon's hesitation earlier as a one-off deal. He was odd, and he was bound to have better hearing than her. She figured he had heard something that caught his attention and that was it. But now... She wasn't so sure."What's bugging you?"she asked bluntly, although she did sound genuinely concerned. She was well aware of how things went one of the previous times she and Jin came through the forest and was honestly worried that that it might have something to do with the poachers they ahd found out about before. Jin wasn't the only one good at hiding their true concerns under illusions, though, and Sable was keeping up her calm facade rather nicely.
Jin rubbed the back of his head and had a sheepish look before finally speaking in a quiet voice."I'm note sure... But I think someone's... Watching us,"he admitted, sounding rather uncomfortable with the idea. He then shook his head slightly as if he had just said something stupid."It might just be a wild pokemon or something, though... But this'd be the first time being assessed in that sort of way has set me off."That was actually what was bothering him most, was that the feeling didn't feel like the normal feeling he got when being watched. But he wasn't quite willing to admit that he was actually used to being watched for various reasons.

Heheh, aw. Cue the kids constantly trying to see what they can get away with before Darren has to resort to more than taking away privlages. XD
Ah, it wasn't so much the being stuck there part I was worried about as being too close to or over the cap when it starts in the first place. XD Since having the third badge would put the cap at 40, that would give me a nice buffer zone. Even 30 would be better than the 25 I'm at now, but considering I won't know how much of a flow the river of experience might have until after the event starts and is underway (even if it's only the one per post, that could still get a lot of experience depending on how much posting might be involved), I'd rather have a nicer buffer zone before seeing what happens. XD At this point, though, it'd mostly depend on our average rate of posting (when life doesn't mess with us) against how many posts might be needed to deal with Brock, Misty, and Surge. Or at least to get to them.
As a side note, looks like between Oaken and Honey (assuming I give Honey her mega stone sometime between now and then), I should be able to take down Misty's pokemon with minimal issues. At least, unless I get trolled too hard by water pulse. XD
