The sun was beating down upon each person that walked throughout Central; it was a clear and warm afternoon. Perhaps, it was a perfect day for someone to do some shopping for themselves, their pokemon, or just go out on an afternoon stroll. It wasn't too hot, and it wasn't too cold to do either. Either way, Aelianus gave out a low groan of dissatisfaction, he never liked the city... he was more of a country boy at heart. But today, out of any other damn day of the week, Aelianus was forced to go out; explore and possibly grow more knowledge on breeding. And possibly a few captures.

He ran his slender, tan fingers through his hair with a soft sigh. His small companion, Blu, was happily perched on his left shoulder. The crowds seemed to grow thicker the more he moved, and finally he had to start pushing people out of his way. With a final thought, he managed to make it to the outskirts of the market place and only headed further out. Aiming to leave the large city entirely. Ael's rather large, square, brownish bag was hanging neatly over his shoulder. It was full of his useful materials... sketchbook, pencils and a few pokeballs. In case he was to do some capturing; which today. He planned on it.

The small, Swablu lightly chirped before she would lightly grace her beak along his ear. It caused the man to turn his head just a bit, smiling faintly at her. He lifted a hand and lightly petted her, and another pleased chirp escaped from the bird. Aelia finally found himself within the grassy fields on the western side of Central, his eyes narrowing and ever watchful. His small companion would lift off his shoulder and perch a top of his head. It brought a light chuckle to escape his throat, and his lips curved into a smirk. Amusing, Blu was.

He stood there a moment, letting the wind brush through his hair... his eyes were watchful for whatever moved; he was ready. At least, as ready as he would ever be.

At first, nothing seemed especially abnormal about the grasslands. The wind blew through the greenery, causing it to wave and twist, creating the illusion of standing in a large green ocean. Continuing to travel in search of Pokemon, you come across a section of land which has no grass at all. Staring down at the soil in hopes of finding a trace of a Pokemon, you instead find... a cookie.

For a moment, this catches you off guard. Why is there a cookie out here? Well, it would be odd to leave it out there, so you begin to step closer to the discarded treat, only to pause as two flashes of tan and brown dart closer to the snack.

A Sentret and a Meowth appear and each grab half of the cookie. With a tug, it snaps in half, and they begin to enjoy their snacks. Awe, you didn't get a bite.

What will you do now?

[Aelianus Kenton]

No, nothing was ever -abnormal- about the grasslands. Aelianus sighed softly, the looks of seeing any other pokemon here seemed to be damn near impossible. When the man came across the section of land, where there wasn't any grass.... Blu chirped; catching sight of the cookie ever before the man.

<Coooooooookie~>. Before Aelia could say a word, the smaller bird went after the cookie... but then the two pokemon managed to grab it and break it in half; the tiny blue bird seemed to puff up in anger. Ael knew that his presence was now known to either of the pokemon, and he was well prepared. Although, first he would reach into his pack and pull out his pokedex, flipping it open it spoke in a female voice.

“Sentret, the scout pokemon. Usually located within the grasslands area, Sentret is a very cautious pokemon, it raises itself up using its tail to get a better view of its surroundings. It is a very nervous pokemon, and brown in color.” When the voice stopped, Aelianus turned towards the Meowth.

“Meowth, the Scratch cat. Meowth withdraw their sharp claws into their paws to silently sneak about. For some reason, this POKéMON loves shiny coins that glitter with light. It is usually brown and white in color.” Ael snorted, closing the pokedex and grabbing a pokeball. He tilted his head slightly, popping it as it went from one side to the other. He brushed a hand through his hair once more.

“Blu! Its time to test your skills. Use peck on that meowth, then fly up and dive down to peck him again” Aelianus said, the pokeball ready to be used at any given time. When the orders slipped from her master's mouth, the young, blu swablu puffed up again and aimed to do each attack.

As you cry out your attacks, both wild Pokemon look at you, startled. The Sentret takes off quickly, and the Meowth moves to follow suit, only to get hit from behind from Blu's glowing beak. With a yowl, it twists around, slashing at Blu with extended claws, the length and power behind the attack enhanced with its glowing quality.

Blu cries out in pain, flapping desperately as it pulls away, the claw marks red against its powder blue skin. Undeterred, it powers up another Peck attack before diving back down at Meowth, its beak aglow with white hot energy as it dives into the poor cat. Meowth falls back again, hissing with its back arched, fur puffed defiantly.

Leaping up to catch the Pokemon as it tried to fly away, Meowth sank its teeth into Swablu's wing. Blu lands awkwardly, shaking its wing and pecking desperately at Meowth, who finally let go after taking a small beating. Hissing, Meowth prepares its neck set of attacks, looking beaten, but far from down. Blu, on the other hand, seems to have taken a bit of damage to its wing. What will you do?

Ael narrowed his eyes, he'd stand firm. Watching Blu take damage, though he didnt seem to flinch. That cat had a nasty scratch. With a faint smirk he spoke again.

“Good, good! Repeat what you just did, we should get it weak enough!” Ael shouted, grabbing a pokeball and readying it.

Blu looked at you, its head tilted to the side. Do what it just did, eh? Well, it sure as hell wasn't going to get caught in Meowth's teeth again, that's for sure. Meowth caught it off-gaurd and scratched it before it could dodge. Angry, Blu pecked at it and hopped into the air, ready to strike again.

Meowth mewled happily and batted at Blu, scratching her as she dive-bombed him with another Peck. He managed to sneak one last Scratch in there before Blu hopped behind it and used Peck once more.

“Nice work Blu!” Ael shouted, this time he would throw the ball towards the Meowth. The small bird seeming to pant heavily after taking such damage and from flying; its energy weighing down. It was now or never.... and Ael had hoped he'd get something new...

[Coyote]

The Pokeball curved gracefully though the air and hit Meowth right on the head. It disappeared in a red flash of light, which was absorbed into the Pokeball. The tiny device closed with a thk and rocked back and forth, fighting the will of the Pokemon. Once, it rocked back. Twice, it rocked forth. On the third try it


SUSPENSE!!






burst open in a flash of white light, Meowth all the angrier. It charged at Blu, teeth bared. You'd better do something before it rips Blu a new one.

[Aelianus Kenton]

Blu puffed up in defense as the Meowth broke free from the pokeball. Ael snarled a bit, “Damnit, Blu, use Fly once more and peck it again!”

The tiny bird chirped in response and batted its wings as it prepared for its attack...

Meowth swiped at Blu just as she took off for her barrage of Pecks. Still hurt, she fumbled in the air and went down for Peck, but was caught with Meowth's scratch once more. After another turn of scratch-and-peck, the two were exausted. Now was your chance.

Ael gritted his teeth and grabbed another of his pokeballs, he threw it again towards the meowth before calling his companion off.

[Coyote]

The ball hit Meowth on the noggin once more and sucked it up into is round form. The ball rocked back and forth three times before it came to rest with a click. It worked! You have yourself a level 6 Meowth! Now get yerself down to a Pokecenter before Blue collapses. She's panting really hard and nuzzling your leg as a victory gesture.

[Aelianus Kenton]

Aelia placed the caught meowth into his pack and then bent down to pick up his heavily damaged Swablu, with a faint smile; he would use the potion that was within his bag and press on. Following a road, he'd let the bird rest against his chest as he cradled it in his arms. Not exactly wanting to go back to the city just yet....

He glanced around from side to side; once more checking to see what pokemon there was... if any.

[Coyote]

Blu settled down in your arms and sighed contentedly. Looking out over your arms, she could see the field stretching before you, the grass waving in the slight wind and other boring, descriptive things that would put any sane person to sleep.

There was a rustle in the grass to the left of you. Suddenly, a noise like a mouse being put through a meat grinder sounded in that very direction. You could see out of the corner of your eye and Pikachu and Sentret standing next to each other, hovering over a mortified Rattata that was steaming in the grass. Pikachu sent out a little shock, and Rattata screamed once more.

Aww. Poor thing. Too bad its such a useless Pokemon, or people might actually give a care as to how it felt.
