When a Wild PKMN appears, reply using the ~~ATTACK~~ button to weaken it! You may reply as many times in a row as it takes to knock out the Wild PKMN. But watch out— it may fight back! If your PKMN faints, you must go to the closest SHRINE to restore your PKMN. When the Wild PKMN's HP reaches 10% or below, up to two players may choose to capture it for -25 BYTES. Please post in Automatic Deduction (-25) to complete your capture and close the thread! Beau Briggs

"Wow..." he breathed, taking in the view of the grassland that stretched to the horizon. The giant iron spikes and spires sticking out of the ground reminded him once again that he was in a video game, and he made his way over to the closest one to run his hand over its rough surface. A soft breeze made his long hair blow out to one side, and he had to use a hand to keep it from blowing in his face. "Maybe I should tie it back - oh!" He made a surprised sound as he realized a small vine was threading its way from his hair through his fingers. "Right, that's a side effect of the Gardener class..." Maybe he could use that to his advantage. Coming through his hair, he found several other vines growing, and carefully gathered them up until he was able to put his hair in a loose ponytail. Having short hair in real life, he did so rather clumsily, but managed to make sure it wouldn't blow around any further. prince

It was the best he could do. He had no idea why his Pokemon wouldn't listen to him and why they were always floating off. He didn't even have any that were super high powered. It just seemed like they wanted to do whatever they wanted. Which was fine but. It felt bad when he was trying to look cool. So when his Pokemon caused him to tumble down one of the hills on his butt he felt really bad. And then felt worse when he found out it was in front of someone else as well. "Oh... Umm..." He wasn't sure what to say. Some prince he was. But then it didn't matter what he had to say because yet another Pokemon appeared. Unlike the last time though it wasn't a scary bug. It was something he was searching for. "Magnemite!" Quickly he stood up and brushed himself off a little bit to try and save dignity. But what he actually cared about was catching that Pokemon.

Turning quickly, he saw another player sitting there, looking just as surprised as Beau. "Uh....hello?" he said, not entirely sure how to react. 'Are you hurt?' was on the tip of his tongue, but what if the player had pain turned off, like he did? While he was debating a better reply, the other teen noticed something and spoke. "Huh?" Following the player's gaze, he saw a floating ball-thing with magnets attached to each side float around the edge of the iron spire. Focusing on it, the ~~Magnemite~~ tooltip popped up over it. "Oh, cool!" Another Magnemite followed the first, but both were wobbling and drifting lower and lower to the ground. Then, as if reaching the two trainers had been their goal, they dropped to the dirt, unconscious. Well, guess he was catching one.

That. Was strange. He frowned as he picked up the Pokeball that surrounded the Magnemite. It had fainted almost immediately when he came up. Maybe it was sickly or something like that? Or broken? He really hoped it wasn't broken. He was doing his best to become a good steel type trainer and you couldn't really do that with a broken Pokemon probably. But he was sure if it was broken the devs would absolutely fix it! "I've been looking everywhere for this Pokemon!" And he had. That and every other steel or electric type hanging around here. "I wonder why it fainted right away though!" He didn't realize that with the weird upgrading he'd been doing it was because of his max HP autokilling the weaker Pokemon. But he wasn't even aware of that. He just didn't want to have to keep running away to the shrine every time he got hit once. Beau Briggs
