first battle ✾ ( video / action )
( video )
( action )
[the video starts up and-- huh, that's quite a view from high above! it looks like whoever is recording is high up in one of the trees. (wonder who's incredibly stupid idea that was, right?) it shifts a little with the hint of a paw so whoever is holding it isn't human. it focuses then a little higher and.. yeah, looks like some young teen is hanging onto a branch while looking out.]
This would be easier if I had Kyurem with me.. I wonder what's out there to visit? I bet this place has got some really awesome sights! Pokemon, too. I don't even know where to begin. Maybe a map..
[now the strange thing is probably what he's wearing. what does he think he is? some kind of hero??? do feel free to laugh at him at this point. but he's too busy trying to look out like some hawk. strange kid.] Hey Rio, is that recording yet?
[an answering grunt, to which Kyouhei looks like a deer caught in headlights (if you're focusing closely despite the mask.) but an easy grin shows all the same.] Oh cool! Well, in that case can anybody can tell me more about this place? Anything I should know, really. Don't think I caught the region name.. Not Unova, that's for sure.
[someone's clearly taken to first exploring before asking questions.]
To think journals are the way around here, huh? Do they not have the technology for Xtransceivers yet? ..Oh well, Justice shall prevail in the end! [a two fingered salute that almost costs him his balance.]
( action )
[at the edge of the forest you're likely to see the odd boy still up at tree-tops, though fortunately moving down lower before doing his attempts to jump from one to another.
and later if you happen to be walking around town, two things are going to happen. one: something purple and very fast just flew right into your face. it's only brief seeing that it's pouncing up and over just as quickly not a second to spare.
two: and as you're recovering you're likely to being face-to-face with your clone. an exact clone of you. perfect lookalike right down to the very details! .. except the fact it may be smirking quite coyly at you.]
[Action]
except, she doesn't speak. only a tilt of the head before some odd snickering sounds after.]
[Action]
Yup. Still herself.
She really doesn't like that snickering, though. Even if she assumes this is herself she's talking to, she doesn't much like being laughed at.]
H-Hey! What's...What's so funny?!
[Action]
Zorua!
[the clone suddenly straightens in complete surprise, face blank before a sudden poof and-! yeah, there's no clone standing there. instead, a purple fox that turns attention to the approaching teen before hopping away and straight into his arms.]
Oh geez, sorry about that, looks like five minutes in and he's already casing trouble. You okay?
[Action]
Um, yeah, I'm fine. I'm just um...confused, I guess?
[Action]
[the fox Pokemon snickers in his arms, still amused of her reaction.] It's harmless pranks he tends to do sometimes, sorry.
[Action]
[He pretty much lost her completely. Illusion ability? Some kind of magic? She is kind of relieved to know that she doesn't have a clone running around, but...]
...Pokemon, pokemon...where have I heard that word before...?
[Despite how many of them are around, she never really got around to really getting to know any of the Pokemon trainers that are in Luceti. She knows someone has said something about it before, but she can't quite recall...]
[Action]
[except.. he's just now remembering something.] Oh yeah, I forgot some of you might not have them... They're, uh.. basically animals from my world with abilities! They're amazing!
[Action]
[A little closer now, she smiles.]
I have to admit, like, this little guy is kind of cute...! Are all Pokemon like this one or what?
[Action]
[but cute, is he? zorua squirms out of kyouhei's arms and intends to jump into her's! because he would definitely like some pets.] Heh well since you've met Zorua, I should introduce myself too! I'm Kyouhei, I'm a Pokemon Trainer.
[Action]
[She lets out a surprised little yelp when Zorua hops into her arms, but she will gladly give him those pets.]
Nice to meet you! I'm... [She's doesn't want to use her real name...it's kind of stupid. A nickname should be okay, right?] You can call me Pils!
So, you're a Pokemon Trainer? What do you train them to do? Like, tricks or house training or what?
[Action]
[ hahaha, million years.. the Zorua wags his puffy tail, smiling widely.]
You got it, nice to meet you Pils.
[he laughs at little at her ending words.] Not anything like that, see Pokemon have abilities.. so we help them train in battles, so they get stronger and learn even more moves! Kinda like Zorua's illusion abilities. They get stronger when he evolves.
[Action]
[It doesn't sound quite like how evolution was explained to her in school, but then again, this guy seems to be from a different world entirely.]
So they get stronger and learn more moves...Haha, it almost sounds like some kind of videoga-...Battles? You train them to like, fight and stuff?
[Action]
[Action]
[She looks down at Zorua thoughtfully. Hopefully, Kyohei won't mind that she's a little wary about that, given that where she comes from, animals being trained to fight one another is kind of frowned upon.]
[Action]
[ Zorua peers back up, tail still wagging but doesn't seem at all troubled by Kyouhei's words. true some might see it as something bad.. but the way Kyouhei describes it, they all have a choice. if a pokemon doesn't want to battle, he definitely won't force it. but over all it's just a friendly competition.
unless you meet someone who thinks otherwise. (jerks.) ]
[Action]
[She mulls this over for a moment, still absentmindedly petting Zorua. The little guy does seem to be in pretty good shape and she imagines that he would look quite a bit more miserable if Kyouhei was forcing him to fight, rather than fighting of his own volition.]
So...Have you two been here long? Now that I think about it, like, I don't think I've seen you around.
[Action]
[Action]
So, like, has anyone told you all the important stuff yet or are you still like, figuring everything out?
[Action]
[he digs into his bag for the journal before waving it.] I got some information, plus someone sent me a Guide so I can check it out. I'm kinda trying to see if I can figure things out on the run, you know?
[Action]
Most of the important stuff isn't too hard to understand like, once you wrap your head around it, so if you're used to weird stuff, I bet you'll get it all pretty easy!
