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.

The bread and butter of any Pokemon game...at least to Butterfly. Humming a soft tune, the teen would walk through the forest, the damp leaves squishing a stacatto that added to the eerie yet soothing atmosphere. Meanwhile, Caesar would be following along beside her, the duo saying nothing to each other as quiet stretched onward and onwards. ...it was nice, this silence when combined with the untouched trees. It was nice, this silence when it was combined with the moss and mushrooms, growing ever rigid against the environment. It wasn't so lovely avoiding the thorny lumps of branches, but it was nice just to enjoy a romp through the woods, hoping to catch another Pokemon to add to her currently one-mon friend group.

A Timburr, holding a log of wood like their life depended on it, came barreling through the trees, a battle cry resting on their maw as the Chimchar sprung into action in front of his trainer, flames leaking through as he released a ember of fire at the foe, who immediately tried to block it with the lumber, scorched due to the searing heat. Enraged, it tries to strike at the girl to...well, mixed results. The good news is, it is tiny. Small. The girl also has Reduced pain on, so the resulting hit to the hand only simulates pain, and only results in a notable ache. A check at her HP shows a different story though. Ah. That is Not Good.

Tuesday • Battle Legend The Creed Posts: 1,602 Trainer Class: Player Name: Martín 'Mars' Marzán OOC Username: Stells Arena Points: 138	Quote Select Post Deselect Post Link to Post Back to Top Post by Tuesday on Nov 16, 2022 15:33:43 GMT 9 The Timberlands are a familiar place to Tuesday; a place she wanders through more than the grand majority of players who are wise not to spend hours lost in the fog and illusions. Today, she’s wandering once more, this time with the intent of collecting a few materials for her T.E.A Shop. While she’s on her way to do so, her Cryogonal suddenly pauses, and thus Tuesday turns to look at him – questioning. "Ancile?" <'Timburr, my liege.'> Cat ears twitch, her tail sways, she takes a step closer to the Cryogonal, and then looks in the direction he’s looking. "...Holy shit." She hadn’t seen one in the Timberlands yet. Despite all her exploring, despite all the pokémon shown to Professor Ash, this one had eluded her. It’s as unappealing as Tuesday had expected it to be. "Damn, you got some luck." Tuesday tells butterfly with a smile before nodding for her Cryogonal to join the fight. Ancile does so, raising a REFLECTIVE SCREEN that sends one of the Timburr’s attacks right back towards it.

The Timburr turns towards the voice and spies another intruder - a snowflake, cold and unyielding - it raises its lumber for a quick strike, a fast and hard swing to remove this intruder from its forest...only for the lumber to be reflected off a screen and hitting it square in the forehead, knocking it out cold. The teen and chimp look towards the new voice, only to see another - oh, hey, another person with cat-like features! Butterfly's tail wags slightly in amazement as she entirely turns towards the other woman, expression sheepish if anything. This...is a person. An actual person who helped her out with this catch. What do you say? What can you say?! Should you thank them?! Yeah...yeah, that's a good option, let's go with that! "Uh,thanks...for the help I mean," She begins awkwardly, ears twitching as she begins her first real conversation with an actual human being. "I honestly thought I wasn't going to be able to catch them...or Caesar wasn't going to be able to win the battle." The Chimchar looks up to the snow-leopard girl and, after a second, nods, turning to the Cryogonal and other cat-eared girl with a closed smile and a thumbs up. <"Yeah, thank ya' tons!"> The teen turned to the Timburr, and with the quick throw of a Pokeball...perhaps something good will happen. ((OOC - sorry for the poor post quality and short length, just tired currently!))

Mars had done so to test the limits of the character customization options, but even if that had been the case, Tuesday immediately feels as if she likes this girl because a snow leopard is a solid choice. "Hey, don’t sweat it." She smirks, as calm as she is confident. "Are you just getting started? Fights like those can be pretty hard at first, but you’ll get the hang of it." The Cryogonal remains solemnly silent, even as Tuesday steps closer and offers butterfly a hand in greeting. "I’m Tuesday, good to meet ya." At that point, she smiles.

butterfly • Retired Posts: 45 Trainer Class: Gardener Player Name: Robin Hemmingway OOC Username: Melo	Quote Select Post Deselect Post Link to Post Back to Top Post by butterfly on Nov 19, 2022 14:06:00 GMT 9 At the mention of getting started, the teen would idly rub her neck, a sheepish habit she never really learned to break. "Yeah...I opted to start here to try and catch a Pokemon...but you saw how that was going." She gave a quiet chuckle, before noticing the offering of a handshake. Butterfly would reach her own hand out and give a firm handshake in response. The snow leopard was just a random thought - she didn't mean much by the thought of selecting the big cat's ears and tail to give to her avatar, it was just something she had randomly picked. But right now, in this moment. It felt like the right choice, like it was deliberately made. The apex predator of the ice and snow. It felt...comforting. "My name's Butterfly - good to meet you, Tuesday!"

Tuesday • Battle Legend The Creed Posts: 1,602 Trainer Class: Player Name: Martín 'Mars' Marzán OOC Username: Stells Arena Points: 138	Quote Select Post Deselect Post Link to Post Back to Top Post by Tuesday on Nov 21, 2022 1:57:10 GMT 9 Tuesday’s own ears are akin to those of a cat; golden and with long fur that ends in tips that point straight up to the skies. Her tail is golden as well, yet tufted like that of a lioness; it sways lightly in butterfly’s presence, cutting through the fog in the air with slow grace. These choices had been careful, premeditated, and there had been reasons behind each of them. She doesn’t consider that some people just choose things because they look nice in the moment. "Hah. It’s that way for everyone at first." It’s the simple truth of the matter, and Tuesday smiles while shaking the snow leopard’s hand. Her own handshake is firm and professional; that of someone used to gestures of the kind. "Just keep up at it. Upgrading also does wonders." Upgrade. Upgrade. Upgrade. "Cute username. You miiight wanna heal up after that fight. Shrine’s that way." She points, all too familiar with the route by now.
