Rex Hazard • Player Character Posts: 7 Trainer Class: Kindler Player Name: Zachary Summers OOC Username: Kodiak	Quote Select Post Deselect Post Link to Post Back to Top Post by Rex Hazard on Jan 7, 2022 16:33:21 GMT 9 his breathing finally started to slow down as he pressed his back against the tree and slowly slid down it. the bark of it digging into his clothes that made the goosebumps along his body nearly jump off of his skin. looking over his shoulder he quickly pulled back when he noticed the shape of a guitar just up ahead. all he wanted to do was leave the starting town and now he was being hunted by the most dangerous creature of all. man. who's bright idea was it to have the rival chase a player to where ever they went if they locked eyes but didn't say anything? was it c0di3's idea? it sounded like it would be the idea of some a.i. with a sick twisted sense of humor. this was how they win the war against humans, rex swore, trap them in an eternal hell in video games. "C'mon! let's have a jam session!" the mere sound of his voice sent rex sliding down deeper towards the ground of his hiding place as he held his breath. maybe if he stayed silent enough...or even passed out...he would go away. he really didn't want a rival battle right now...he should just log out...but he's just started playing again today...

Big Bee • Bandana Guy Round 2 Posts: 651 Trainer Class: Player Name: Bryan Nautilus OOC Username: Ladybug Arena Points: 49	Quote Select Post Deselect Post Link to Post Back to Top Post by Big Bee on Jan 9, 2022 17:28:09 GMT 9 Big Bee's UI beeped, alerting him to another player in the area. Another valuable source of feedback, he thought, jogging briskly towards the ping. I wonder if he's having fun. He reached the location of the signal, and found a huge man huffing and puffing at the base of a tree. He was a new player, and from the look of things he'd maxed out the 'Muscles' sliders during character creation. "Whoa! You okay there?" Big Bee asked, offering a hand to help the man to his feet. As he did, ominous music started to play. Is he a villain? Are we about to fight? He wondered, feeling simulated sweat bead on his neck. "I'm Big Bee. You're looking pretty worn out. What's wrong?" he asked, hoping to break the tension. The music reached a crescendo, and a sick riff ripped through the air. Big Bee turned towards the source, and saw a slick teen wielding a custom guitar and a backwards cap. A UI prompt popped up. QUEST: ...WHAT WAS HIS NAME AGAIN? Your Rival was appeared! Big Bee read the prompt. My Rival? Well, everyone's gotta have one. It's a staple of Pokemon games. Ash and Gary in Kanto, Ash and Paul in Hoenn, Ash and Reverse-Ash in the Mirror Saga. "Okay Rival, if that is your real name, we'll face you. Bring it on!" Big Bee said, and he sent out Taka the Wartortle. Since evolving he was a little too big to ride of Big Bee's shoulder, but size and strength were only plusses when it came to rival battles. "Bring it! This battle's gonna be a major hit!" said the snapbacked menace, as he sent out his Chimchar and Blitzle. The monkey hooted in excitement, and the electric horse poured the ground, snorting out miniature thunderclouds as it prepared to charge. "What do you say?" Big Bee asked Rex Hazard. "You ready to show this guy who's bosses? I mean, Who are boss? I mean, Who his bosses are?"

"yeah yeah...just kinda. got spooked by something." did he really want to say that he was freaked out by one npc? no he didn't think so. not when he looked like...well like he could actually punch out the poor kid npc that was destined to follow him wherever he went. "name's rex and i-" before he could properly introduce himself a text box came between the two with a message about an update on a quest. >YOUR RIVAL WOULD LIKE TO BATTLE! from behind rex the young boy popped into existence giving the blonde tall olympian quite the scare while big bee seemed unfazed by it. hell he seemed ready to throw down with this character. "uh yeah. that i remember from the show its just...this guy is really persistent about that first battle ain't he? especially when its gonna be two on one." normally that was not something rex would partake in but...this was a computer program. it wasn't like it was going to complain was it? "yeah y'know what? probably doesn't matter. let's show this guy how its done by some real pro trainers!" with that he took out his pokeball and threw out his turtwig who was finally awake as it shook off some remaining drowsiness from its eyes with a shake of its head as it looked around at its new surroundings and tilted its large head at the guitar wielding rival in front of it. "how about i let you have the first move Big B? did sort of drag you into this what with that rival following me from town."

He probably should have fought the rival earlier, as now Taka was definitely overlevelled. With a type advantage, an extra evolution, and a few more battles under his belt this was going to be a bloodbath. Beside him Wartortle grinned at the little fire monkey. Beside him, the blonde giant sent out a Turtwig. It seemed like the pairings were just going to be common sense. "Rex, you take the Blitzle. We've got the Chimchar, don't we Taka?" Taka rubbed his jaw, loosening up his chompin' muscles. <Yup.> "Time to move first then. Taka!" Big Bee called, pointing dramatically at the Chimchar, who looked up, startled. <Yeah?> "What do you mean 'Yeah'? You said you were ready! Attack him!" <Oh. Sure.> Taka stopped rubbing his jaw and raced across the ground towards the Chimchar. The little monkey hopped away, but Taka swing his massive tail and caught Chimchar in mid air, sending it flying into a nearby tree. The monkey was fast, but the sheer power of the second-stage Pokemon was phenomenal. Chimchar popped out of a bush, its head smoldering with stuck twigs. It spat a glob of Ember at Taka, but the Wartortle's tail was wreathed in roaring water. It batter the Ember, extinguishing it, and let the momentum carry him forward. He flew tail-first at Chimchar, bashing into it with the rushing Aqua Tail. Chimchar disappeared into the trees. <Time for the best part. The Bite,> Taka said as he disappeared after him.
