Rhaenyra couldn’t believe it was that simple. Yes, it costed all of her bytes and she felt bad for taking samples from her pokemon. But, look at it! It’s a freakin type null! Yes, they aren’t the pretties of pokemon nor the strongest pokemon. Yes, she still needed to from a bond with it. But, look at it! How freaking exciting! And what better way to bond, than to go out pokemon hunting.

Pale golden orbs shifted over the dense tree tops, admiring the scattered light shafts that peaked though the canopy to prove some light along the narrow almost deleted pathways through the route. The sounds of the forest filled her pointed wolf ears, from avians chirping their songs to critters scurrying away along the ground. The air was cool thanks to the coverage of the tree tops, but it was also very still with the thick scent of musky earth. It truly gave the impression of being deep within the woods.

After traveling deeper into the tall grass, the silvery grey haired woman reached into her jacket to pluck out a sphere. With a simple press of a button, the ball burst opened and a creature materialized within seconds. The chimera looking beast stood regal, large helmet head shifted to take in its surrounds. A low grumble rattled in his chest and hummed in his helmet, fin like tail swished once and front talon’s dug into the earth. “Where am I?” His gaze continued to sweep across the land, fallen upon a wolf human. “Who are you?”

Behind her mask, Rhaenyra was bubbling with excitement. This pokemon had always looked so cool to her and she always wanted to meet one in person, so to speak. Everything about it was awesome. Of course, Rhaenyra held herself cool, calm, and collective. After all, thats who she was here. Her long wolf tail swished, left ear flickered. Her arms folded over her chest, eyeing the pokemon as though she was judging it. “I am your master,” she proclaimed proudly, chin lifted slightly in arrogance, “And we are on the beta island, a place called branching canopy. We are looking for an rowlet. A grass owl.” The type null emitted a low grumble, though didn’t question her further.

Rhaenyra took that as a sign of compliance, unfolding her arms and moving in closer. “I have a name for you. Would you like to know it?” The normal type creature held her gaze, his stance unwavering as she approached. “Ziryan. It means storm.” Again, the type null didn’t say anything. A low grumble was all he gave. However, the grumble didn’t sound like he didn’t like it. So, she continued. “Good. Let’s get this started.”

The hybrid passed by the type null’s side, the temptation to touch him very hard to reject. Yet, Rhaenyra kept her hands to herself. Due in time, she will be able to pet him. But for now, let him adjust to his new life. After all, he was a creation and not a natural born. She gave him a nod to follow her, pushing pass him and deeper into the forest. Ziryan hesitated for a moment, taking in his surrounds once more before following after his new master. A grumble echoed in his helmet.

Rhaenyra took in a deep breath, pale golden orbs shifted over the worn out path that lead through the route. It felt like this place had been through something, spotting one of the many run down and falling apart tree houses within the area. Although this was a game, it made her wonder what kind of people lived here at one point. She could never live in a forest without running hat water or internet. However, Rhaenyra could.

Ear flickered at a thought. Could she buy a home for herself here? A wolf in the forest sounded cool. And sense this was a game, there was no need for the luxury items like showers and stuff. Right? The pair kept marching their way though the canopy, neither of them speaking and both on high alert. After all, who knows what could be hiding in here?

The imprisonment worked. The type null sent his limited psychic powers out. And soon, the energy encased the grass and flying type. Ziryan held onto the foe, even as it struggled against it with all of its might. He tightened his hold, pulling the creature down to their level and causing the rowlet to strain itself in the progress. “Good work,” she mumbled, watching as the type null let go of the bird once it was at ground level. It screeched at them, not running away like she thought it would.

Instead, it casted a dark growl towards them. A plumage of leafs summon at its will. And with a simply thrust of its tiny wings, the leaves were hurled in their direction. Rhaenyra arms rose instinctively, shielding her face from the razor sharp leafs. A hardy grunt escaped the type null, face turned to brace the tiny bladed leafs that scratched at his body. The hybrid peaked over her arm that shielded her face, arms dropping when the attack seemed to be done. “Use aerial ace!”

A light purpley glow encased his frame, a simple flex of his rear muscular legs launched him into the air. He let out a series of snarls, aiming to slam himself into the small starter with all his might. Rhaenyra observed from afar, hoping this hit would KO the pokemon.

Ziryan crashed into the little circular pokemon. The hit was hard, sending the rowlet back a few feet. It rolled end over end when it hit the ground, only to be stopped back a tree trunk. Rhaenyra was quick to pull out a sphere, rushing over to the knocked out pokemon and tossing a ball at it. The ball hit, sucking the creature in and locking behind it. The ball wiggled, both Rhaenyra and Ziryan waiting for the confirm capture.
