"Blast!"
Pa'ao staggered backwards, wiping gunk off his snout. Well, if he was /already/ poisoned...
"Pa'ao! Use your claws - scratch him!"

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
The violent spasms of earth send all the nearby Charmander and Charmeleon flying every which way. All the Charmander are thoroughly knocked out, sprawled across the battlefield in an instant. The three Charmeleon are a bit luckier, not by much.
One is sent all the way to your main group, landing right next to you and groaning in pain as it tries to get up. Another is sent through the grass where you know Carn to be, and at that point, the only real question is whether its demise was quick or painful.
The third Charmeleon is sent bowling through the rest of the group across the clearing--you have certainly gotten their attention! In unison, a large volley of about a dozen fireballs is sent toward the invading Drilbur. Shovel instinctively tries to escape, but the fireballs are going to catch up to him. As they are about to hit their target, a massive blast of wind from Carn's position sweeps through their flight path, causing them all to dissipate harmlessly into nothing.
The Charmander and Charmeleon quickly organize themselves, and most of them advance toward Shovel while a small contingent investigates the source of that blast of wind.
SpoilerThe numbers at the top left are keeping track of how many Charmanders/Charmeleon have been taken out.
Shovel gets a free move action this turn, and keep in mind that your first movement across that Grass won't have a movement penalty.

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
The Stunky almost manages to evade the scratch, but Pa'ao does catch it falling away, doing fairly good damage to it. "Scratch it back, Tristan!" The Stunky lurches at Pa'ao, claws flailing.

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
Quirking his brow in confusion, Nikolas looks at Praelia and then back at Ten. "Little guy? How old is he?" Otherwise, Nikolas makes no objections to feeding the small Pokemon and even places the food in front of the Trapinch himself, as a gesture of good faith. Had he separated a bay from its mother? That was worrying to say the least...
Feeling guilty for the capture he leans in slightly to talk to the ant Pokemon, "Are you okay with me as your trainer? I know I don't have much experience with Pokemon but I'll do my best to train you."

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
"Quite young," Praelia answers.
Ten cautiously starts to eat the food you provide him. He looks up at you with starry eyes as you speak. "Pin-pinch." He goes back to eating while Praelia explains.
"He appreciates how much you want him...acceptance is something he is likely not used to. You see, while humans prize shiny Pokemon for their uniqueness, most Pokemon tend to shun them for that same reason. They are shunned out of a mixture of jealousy and bigotry. Trust me, Nikolas. You have done this one a great favor by taking him in."

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
Frowning at the young Pokemon's troubled life, Nikolas reaches over to give it a good rub on the head. "Then I guess you're just like me then, aren't you?" he asks with a sad smile. "What about its parents? Didn't they...you know...love him...?" Wasn't a family supposed to keep their own safe and happy? He couldn't say much, given his own lack of experience, but he had always thought of himself as the exception to the rule. If that wasn't the case...
Looking down compassionately at the Trapinch, he pushes more food toward the growing Pokemon. "Well if nobody else wants you then I guess we'll just have to be your family."

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
After trading, Leo said goodbye to his mom, and heads home. After releasing his pokemon to explore his room, he takes a quick shower and collapses on his bed. He flips open his pokedex and starts looking for information about the road to Xylo, road conditions, pokemon sightings, unusal events and the like. Information is power, and he wanted to be as informed as possible.

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
Your Pokedex's map of the region shows you that the roads between Wrystone and Xylo are fairly straight, and there are no distressing road conditions to speak of. The weather is supposed to be nice throughout your anticipated trip, with one particularly sunny day in the middle.
There is an article mentioning a get-together of some fairly accomplished League battlers at a wealthy landowner's ranch just a ways off the path about a third of the way from Wrystone to Xylo.
A blog post that looks to have been written by a three-year-old reads, "I seesd a rikoau buteen wrstont nd xilo!!1@@!!" but the veracity of that report is...questionable.

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
Smiling a small smile, he continues rubbing at the Trapinch's shell. "Then how about you sleep in the tent with Orobas and I tonight, Ten? Praelia, you can come too. The tent feels big with only me in it..." he says as he scratches the back of his head. Yelling at the surroundings, he addresses Loki, "You can come too Loki...if you want." Try as he might, he still barely understood the ghost Pokemon but it was only polite to offer right? If anything, it would help Ten feel wanted.

"Thales, get out there, provide a target. Get a coat of water; they won't be able to touch you."
The Oshawott looks at his trainer in shock. Use him? As bait?
"Do it! You can attack them later!"
The Oshawott, none to happy with the docile order, coats itself in water and heads out, providing a prime target.
"Shovel! Get down!" Pitch shouts, turning to the Charmeleon, knife in his hand.
"Hello there," he says, gripping its shoulder and thrusting towards the stomach of the beast with his knife.

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
Pa'ao batted away the fourth of the claws, staring into the stunky defiantly. The look on his face didn't change as he fell face-forward - he seemed more angry with his body for not cooperating with him than in pain. He looked up, clawing at the ground - as he slammed one clawed fist into the ground, furious that he literally couldn't continue.
Whoa. Mordecai made a mental note to talk to Pa'ao after this to make sure it was okay. "Pa'ao - that's enough, return!" He paused, contemplating his options for a moment. Kaulu or Paka?
"Kaulu, it's your turn!" And out came the ball. The mankey was completely silent as he came out, clasping one fist into another before falling into a fighting stance.
"Kaulu! Give him your own Fury swipes!"
And the mankey delivered a series of... punches.

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
Leo looked at the the blog in disgust. He didn't have perfect grammar, but at least he could use basic English. The ranch looked interesting though. He may be able to get some battling tips from the best in the league.
Moving off the bed, Leo released Xianti. The feebas looked around the room in confusion. Xianti, my name is Leo, and I know your old trainer. She traded you to me, and said you were a great pokemon. I'd like to introduce you to you new family. Leo introduced his other pokemon to the fish, and Piri Piri jollily offered a small berry that he had kept from the clearing to the feebas.
I can cook a little bit, and as soon as I get my hands on some of the right berries, we'll get you evolved to a miolotic in no time.Many thanks to Ceika for the wonderful avatar.

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
Ten follows you into the tent and plops down in a corner, instantly falling asleep. Praelia finds a comfortable spot as well to stay for the night.
After you yell out for Loki, nothing happens for a bit, but as you start to settle in to sleep, Loki suddenly floats through the tent and right up to you. He playfully flies around your head while laughing and then flies back off into the night.
SpoilerLoki's loyalty increases!
No encounter roll for tonight, just some peaceful rest.

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
Nikolas goes to sleep with a smile on his face, waving off Loki's antics with a smile on his face. There was only a few more days left until they reached Xylo, and meaning they needed to conserve as much strength as they possibly could before challenging the gym. Orobas was clearly his strongest Pokemon at the moment, which meant his other Pokemon would need some training to equalize that gap "Tomorrow..." he whispers, as he drifts off into oblivion.

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
The Charmeleon's eyes widen as your knife plunges deep into its chest. It twitches a bit before falling over, unconscious.
You can see the Charmeleon over by Carn's hiding place send two Charmanders in first. A few moments later, the bodies of those Charmanders fall back out of the thick grass. Looks like Carn's having fun over there.
The horde of salamanders advances and sends another volley of fireballs, this time aimed at Thales.

Kaulu's ferocious barrage of punches pummel the Stunky into the ground, knocking it out and ending the battle.
SpoilerYou won the battle!

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
Pitch grins as the Charmeleon slumps to the ground. If Shovel kept dropping so many, he'd be more than useful. He needed to think of a real name for the little guy...
"Shovel, take some pressure of Thales!" Pitch shouts, watching the burst of flame hurt the Oshawott, even through the extra coat.
The mole moves again, this time surfacing below the Charmeleon, the earth quaking once again, tremors rolling out towards the nearby Charmander.

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
I hope its more responsive as a miolotic. Leo returns the pokemon with a sigh, and starts doing some reading until his parents get home. When they do, he lets them know that he's planning on leaving early the next day, and goes to bed.

Giggling gently, he pats Ten's shell and packs everything back into his bag. In addition to placing Orobas on his shoulder, he bends down and plants Trapinch on his shoulder. "Let's get going shall we?" Giving Ten a little pat before setting off, Nikolas gets back onto the trail.

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
Once again, Shovel's reemergence is accompanied by a powerful quake which sends bodies flying. All the nearby Charmanders are flung outward to join their brethren across the clearing's floor. The Charmeleon right above where Shovel resurfaced gets flung straight up and lands headfirst a few feet away, knocked out cold.
Over by Carn, the remaining Charmeleon heads through the thicket and is not seen again.
As the last of the Charmander arrive to the fight, a trio of Charmander decide to quell the recurring threat by growling menacingly at Shovel.
SpoilerGrowl! x3
The remaining Charmeleon advances up to Shovel and belches fire point-blank at him.

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
Pitch's smile fades as the beasts growl at Shovel. He was cowering before them; covering! When he was demolishing their numbers with ease!
"Thales, move. Aerial Ace. Finish off the Charmeleon."
As Pitch says this, he steps out of the grass, releasing Dilos by his side.
"I'll need to have you make one of these seize up again, alright?" Pitch says, looking at the snake expectantly. "Not yet, but be ready."
As Pitch says this, Thales gives a watery cry, flying forward with his shell and leaping into the air, cutting down and across as he falls upon the Charmeleon from above, his technique leaving no room for escape.

Re: PTA: Wuhtu (IC)
You are able to whip up enough food for the whole gang, and though it isn't a complete success, you do learn some useful tidbits about cooking different flavors.
Your mother catches up to you as you walk out the door. "Leo! Be safe...and don't forget to say goodbye to Miss Wrystone!" she adds amusedly.
