Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Good luck Archie-boy! I believe in you!" Dimitri shouted with a wave before he took out a pokeball and charged towards the magma grunts whom were grouped together, only to be stopped by two grunts whom were familiar to him, a team of grunts that he previously encountered at meteor falls. "So we meet again brat... I won't make the mistake of losing to again like that incident at meteor falls... Go Houndour!" The first magma grunt said with a grin as he tossed a pokeball into the air, sending out a houndour. "..." The second grunt replied with a deadly glare as she tossed a pokeball into the air, sending out a Cubone. "Well see about that... This is my chance to prove myself to Archie-boy... "Dimitri replied in a serious yet determined tone as he took out two pokeballs and tossed them into the air, sending out his Machop along with his Growlithe.


"Show him what you've got Houndour and use Crunch against Machop!" The first magma grunt shouted in a commanding tone. Following it's trainers command, Houndour leaped at Dimitri's Machop and bit him with it's sharp fangs, dealing a decent amount of damage. "Go Growlithe! Play whack-a-mole with that Houndour and use Dig!" Following her trainers command, Growlithe used Dig to burrow into the ground, hiding and waiting underneath the ground for the right moment to strike. Shortly after, the second magma grunt silently ordered her Cubone to use bone club against Machop. Following her trainers command, Cubone jumped at Dimitri's Machop and used bone club to smack Dimitri's Machop across the face with a club that appeared to be made entirely of bone, dealing a decent amount of damage. "Hang in there Machop! Now it's your turn to shine... show off your martial arts skills and use Cross Chop!" Following his trainers command, Machop struggled to keep himself from falling over from the two devastating attacks that he was forced to endure before he used cross chop to cross his forearms and attack the Houndour, dealing a devastating amount of damage. Shortly after, Growlithe dove out from underneath the ground to deliver the last part of her dig attack, striking the Houndour from behind at it's weak point to deal enough damage to finish it off. Following this, The first magma grunt took out a pokeball and pointed it at his fallen Houndour, watching as a red beam of light engulfed it to return it back to it's pokeball before he took out another pokeball and tossed it into the air, sending out a Heatmor to take his fallen Houndour's place on the battlefield. "Go Heatmor! Scorch that machop with an inferno!" The first magma grunt shouted in a commanding tone. Following it's trainers command, Heatmor used Inferno to shoot an intense blast of fire from it's mouth at Dimitri's Machop, dealing a great amount of damage. "Go Growlithe! Focus on taking down that Heatmor and use Iron Tail against it!" Following her trainers command, Growlithe leaped at Heatmor and used Iron Tail to turn her tail into steel before subsequently striking the Heatmor, dealing a great amount of damage. The second magma grunt silently ordered her cubone to use earth power. Following it's trainers command, Cubone used Earth Power against Growlithe to make the earth below her feet erupt with power, dealing a great amount of damage. "Go Machop! Beat that Heatmor to a bloody pulp and use close combat!" Following his trainers command, Machop shakily and unsteadily stepped closer to Heatmor before he used Close Combat to rapidly punch and kick Heatmor with intense power, dealing a great amount of damage, it was clear that Machop did not want to let his trainer down even if it meant he would have to endure the intense pain inflicted upon him from the previous attack. "Go Heatmor! Put him out of his Misery and use Aeriel Ace!" The first magma grunt shouted in a commanding tone. Following it's trainers command, Heatmor leaped into the air and used Aerial Ace to slash Dimitri's Machop across the torso, dealing enough damage to finish him off. Following this, Dimitri took out a pokeball and pointed it at his fallen pokemon, watching as a ream beam of light engulfed his Machop to return him back to his pokeball before he took out another pokeball and tossed it into the air, sending out his Wailmer to take his fallen Machop's place on the battlefield. "Stay strong Growlithe! with it's sharp fangs, dealing a decent amount of damage. "Go Growlithe! Play whack-a-mole with that Heatmor and use Dig!" Following her trainers command, Growlithe used dig to burrow into the ground, hiding and waiting underneath the ground for the right moment to strike. "Now Back him up Wailmer! And use surf to splash them away!" Following his trainers command, Wailmer let out a cry once the burn inflicted it's damage before he used surf to summon a giant devastating wave to splash both Heatmor and Cubone, dealing enough damage to bring Heatmor down to it's last bits of health while dealing a great amount of damage towards Cubone. Shortly after, Growlithe dove out from underneath the ground to deliver the last part of her dig attack, striking the Heatmor from behind at it's weak point to deal enough damage to finish it off. "You will pay for this! Go Cubone! Use Earthquake!" The second magma growled in an angered tone, her silence was now broken. Following it's trainers command, Cubone used earthquake to set off an earthquake to strike every pokemon around it, dealing a devastating amount of damage towards Dimitri's Growlithe to finish her off while dealing a great amount of damage towards Wailmer. Following this, Dimitri took out a pokeball and pointed it at his fallen pokemon, watching as a ream beam of light engulfed his Growlithe to return her back to her pokeball before he took out another pokeball and tossed it into the air, sending out his fainted Tropius, only to take out a revive and use it to revive the leafy beast. Shortly after, Tropius become revived with half of his health remaining. "Go Wailmer! Get revenge for your fallen teammate and use Hydro Pump!" Following his trainers command, Wailmer used hydro pump to fire a huge volume of water at Cubone, dealing more than enough damage to finish it off. Following this, The second magma grunt took out a pokeball and pointed it at her fallen Cubone, watching as a red beam of light engulfed it to return it back to it's pokeball before she took out another pokeball and tossed it into the air, sending out a Drilbur to take her fallen pokemons place on the battlefield. "Go Drilbur! Use Drill Run against Wailmer!" The second Magma Grunt shouted in a commanding tone. Following it's masters command, Drilbur leaps at Wailmer and uses Drill Run to make it's body rotate rapidly like a drill before subsequently crashing into Wailmer, dealing a great amount of damage. "Go Wailmer! Don't let that get you down and use Waterfall against Drilbur!" Following his trainers command, Wailmer lets out a loud cry before he charges at the Drilbur and repeatedly starts striking the Drilbur, dealing an enormous amount of damage. "Go Drilbur! Show no mercy and use Brick Break against Tropius!" The second Magma Grunt shouted in a commanding tone. Following it's trainers command, Drilbur leaped over Wailmer and used Brick Break to attack Dimitri's Tropius with a swift chop, dealing a great amount of damage. "Hang in there Tropius and finish this off with Leaf Storm!" Following his trainers command, Tropius used leaf storm to whip up a storm of leafs around Drillbur, dealing a devastating amount of damage to finish it off. Shortly after, The two Magma grunts ran off to escape, the female grunt picking her fallen pokemon up off the ground before retreating. At last, Dimitri took out a pokeball and pointed it at his injured whale pokemon, watching as a red beam of light engulfed Wailmer to return him back to his pokeball. Eventually, Dimitri climbed onto his Tropius's back and wrapped his arms around his pokemons neck. "Lets go back to the hideout and take a nap... I think we could both use one... Use fly to fly us back to the hideout!" Following his trainers command, Tropius used fly to fly back to the hideout, Dimitri was hoping to regroup with the others without getting lost. As his Tropius began to make his way towards the hideout, Dimitri started to pet him to congratulate his pokemon for a battle well fought before he passed out on the back of his pokemon, subsequently dozing off.

Dark walks in to the main room, coffee in hand. Following behind him are a Larvitar, Chimchar and the refrigerator.
"C'mon Polt, you're gonna break it." Dark sighs, causing the fridge to cackle. "Bad enough we got the washing machine destroyed, we don't need the fridge to break too."
The frdige hops back into the kitchen seeming disappointed.

"Almost seems like Pokemon are more trouble than they're worth, huh?" Dark chuckles as he watches Cody enter. His Chimchar crosses it's arms and looks a bit grumpy.
"I'm just playin' buddy." Dark pats his Pokemon's head.

"I'm sure you could. Ask the guy who hands out the starter equipment, wherever he may be." Dark shrugs. "We should have access to replacement equipment."

"Well I meant someone who isn't part of our group of Aqua." Dark sits on the couch. "You could always just look in a few closets I guess."

"Well yeah, how do you think he keeps this place running." Dark crosses his arms. "Our group is pretty much the front. The face of Aqua, the show of strength and image. There are medics and labs and the peons to do the business and dirty work."
Dark sips on his now cold coffee. He looks down, scrunching his nose a bit in disappointment.
"Being the strongest of his 'militia' groups he's starting to us as more than peons. We're coming around as people and partners. He even plans to let the rest of you know what his true plans and goals are."

Allen entered the room tapping away on his TADS with a stylus, it was being held against a clip board and every now and then he'd stop, switch the stylus for a pencil and write something down. He looked up from his business to say hey to everyone and took a seat on a couch against the wall.

Checking the time, He flips he device closed, "Whoops! Cutting it a little close." He muttered to himself, "Gotta be somewhere!" He checks to make sure he's got all his Pokeballs and everything in his bag before leaving the room and eventually, the base.
