A second Paras in his pocket, Furrlicity scooped up Moon in his arms. This might keep the Espurr from getting into trouble. The pokemon accepted it's fate, turned around to stare off into the woods while clinging to him like a toddler. It felt soft under his hand, like his cat Sprinkles, so he couldn't help giving it a few pets and pats as they walked.

They found a small clearing, a ring of trees standing at attention. The one in the middle had a large hole at the base, like something could burrow and nest there. Furrlicity approached, unafraid, and wondered what would come out. Kicking the tree, he hoped to spook out whatever was inside.

Unlike the last few pokemon he had found, this one was sturdy. A huge chunk of it's HP bar dropped from that one attack, making Furrlicity whistle, but it still got back up. Puffing up, the Jigglypuff seemed mad now. It walked over and started to Double-slap the purple kitten, which made Moon yelp.

Furrlicity winced when the Jigglypuff finally backed off. Moon wobbled side to side. Then he opened his mouth and shrieked, a Disarming Voice that made Furrlicity have to cover his ears. As soon as he quieted the Espurr flopped onto his side, fast asleep there in the grass.

"Ah, fuck."

The Tackle sent the Jigglypuff flying. It hit a tree and then the ground, dizzy circles in it's eyes. A knockout! Boo sat next to her 'kill' proudly, chest puffed out. She looked up at Furrlicity expectantly, eyes shining.

"Uh... good job?" He offered lamely, taking out the golden pokeball once again. This seemed to be enough for the Shinx, who jumped up and started to cheer, little sparks coming off of her body. She ran around in circles saying < yeah yeah yeah! > under her breath.
