It's not worth it.
Dirt. Soggy dirt. Prosper hated it, but he had many things that he had to in the city of psychics. Unfortunately, to get to Misthenge he had had to travel through one of his least favorite places he had been so far in Opaddeka: the wonderful Murmur Valley, a place of fog and and soggy ground underfoot. It was a pretty annoying place to be, especially if you actually HAD a reason to be there and so weren't planning on getting out there as fast as you could.

Deciding that he could do with a little bit of company, Prosper selected a random Pokeball from his belt and let it fly forward. Watt the Flaaffy burst forward from the ball, sinking down into the dirt as she was released. She clearly wasn't happy about her perfectly-groomed fur getting so dirty and matted from the mud that lay thickly under her shiny paws.

Prosper walked along calmly, grimacing every few steps as his sneakers sunk into a particularly deep pool of dirt and mud. He looked up and noticed that Watt had suddenly stopped and was fidgeting peculiarly. He stared at her for a few seconds, when all of a sudden a large pillar of electricity suddenly exploded from her fur. She began to glow a golden shade of yellow and her form began to change, growing significantly in height and size. The light eventually faded away and she turned around, beaming up at Prosper. She had evolved into Ampharos.

"Oh, Watt."

Prosper cried, running forward. He suddenly forgot how depressed he had been about being in Murmur and skidded to a halt in front of Watt, throwing his arms around her. She hugged him back, and let out a tiny jolt of electricity, causing Prosper to jump in surprise. She laughed heartily before turning, suddenly beginning to run and leap into the air, letting out bursts of electricity with her newfound power.

Happiness?~

Despite sucking so much, Ampharos was glad to be where it was. Not i nthe soggy dirt, but in it snew body that sucked less than the previous one. Shooting off electricity is all fun and games until someone shoots an eye out, though. Be careful.

Whoops, too late.

A passing Buneary had been sruck by the shot of electrical current. The rabbit rolled around on the ground, getting all kinds of dirty in the process. Poor little bunny rabbit.

"Oh, Watt, look what you did."

Prosper had been a little worried about the random spurts of electricity emanating from Watt, but he figured that it wouldn't harm anything out here in the open. Now she had gone and paralyzed some random Buneary and left it pretty much immobilized. What luck they had, huh?

Prosper bent down by the little Buneary, frowning as he watched it roll around in the dirt, getting its fluffy brown fur covered in muck. He fished around in his bag for a minute or two, trying to find some sort of item that cured paralysis. However, after several minutes of fruitless searching, he found... nothing. What kind of trainer didn't carry around paralysis-curing items?

"Umm, Buneary... I'm sorry for what my Ampharos did, but I don't have anything that can help you... would you like to me carry you and get you some help in the next city?"

Prosper offered, glancing down at the Buneary with a smile on his face. He was truly sorry for what Watt had done, and hoped that he could make it up. But he would understand if the Buneary didn't trust him. If all else failed, he would have to simply leave her there and hope the paralysis faded eventually.

Buneary glared at you with all intents and purposes of beating the living hell out of you. The only thing stopping it was the electrical current running through its body. The small rabbit slowly rose to its feet while keeping an eye on you and your overgrown sweater.

Seeing that you mean tit no harm, it began to trudge off through the mud, on its way elsewhere. Before it was completely out of sight though, it turned to give you the bird, letting you know what it really thought of you. What a prick.

Oh well, at least you don't have to carry around any dead weight.

Prosper gasped when the Buneary began to move its legs and actually climb onto its feet. He began to wonder how the thing had recovered from the paralysis so quickly, but he didn't concern himself too much with it; he was happy enough knowing that the tiny bunny would be able to take care of itself now. He smiled at the Pokemon, but as it began to walk away... Prosper's eyes bulged. Did that thing... just... no, he was imagining things. No way, that little thing just flipped him off...

"You ungrateful little thing!"

The young trainer yelled after the bunny as it disappeared into the fog. He narrowed his eyes, but climbed up to his feet and slung his bag back over his shoulder. He was a little surprised with himself, wondering how he could yell at Buneary like that... perhaps it was just the rejection that had hit him so hard. He had been rejected by people his whole life, so now, when he was out here by himself... it really kinda got to him.

Trying to shrug it off, Prosper continued on walking, consulting his Poketech map every few steps to make sure he was going in the right direction. He had returned Watt back into her Pokeball for safekeeping, hoping to avoid another incident like with Buneary. He really missed the company, though, especially in such a dark and dreary place like Murmur Valley. It was a cold and uninviting area, and it made him want to just hit the button on his escape rope and curl up back in the Pokemon Center in front of a roaring fire.

The sounds of eerieness and spooky stuff filled the misty valley. Wh oknows what was really out there. Maybe it was best you didn't know, and justfocused on the hike ahead of you.

Splat!

That was the sound of your face in th emud as the ground you were walking on seemingly vanished. It was replaced by this squishy, muddy ground that had a thin layer of water on top of it. Your clothes and face were covered with the nastiness, giving one pokemon in particular something to laugh at.

A Drowzee was holding its belly and pointing at you, filled with laughter. He obviously thought your mishap was funny. To be honest, so do I.

Prosper stole another glance at his Poketech as it lit up and beeped, signaling that he had reached a new area in the valley. The new area on the map began to glow, a place called the Sinklands. Oh, that sounds fun... just as Prosper was rejoicing about entering another joyous area of Murmur he suddenly found that his feet had shot clean out from under him and fell... splat into a pool of mud, water, and dirt. He almost like dying of embarrassment, even if he was alone. Why did this have to happen to him?...

Just as he was climbing up to his feet and wiping away the muck from his face, he heard a chorus of laughing in the background. He swiveled around and noticed for the first time the Drowzee that was pointing and laughing at him. His eyes slitted once more, he tossed his muddy Poketech in his bag and shot his hands two, unclipping two Pokeballs from his belt. With two button pressed they swelled in size and he hurled them forward.

Watt and Kyubi appeared in two flashes of light and stood side-by-side, staring daggers at the Drowzee. They hardly waited for Prosper to give them any orders; Watt's hands were already crackling with electricity and Kyubi stood erect, her muzzle slowly beginning to widen as she prepared to shoot forth a flurry of scorching flames. Prosper was proud that they were so prepared to stick up for them. He had always worried about his Pokemon really felt about him, but from their actions it showed that they truly cared.

Drowzee was preoccupied with laughter, giving you and your pokemon the edge in terms of getting the upper hand from the start. The small red fox shrouded the pair in a guard of safety while the overgrown sheep released a bolt of electricity at the chuckling pokemon.

Drowzee's demeanor changed from jovial to quite disturbed as the wave of thunder coursed through its body. The psychic type moved its legs as fast a sit could, fleeing into the mist. Rather, it tried. Unfortunately, the paralyzation had taken hold, causing the dream-eater to move even slower than your sheep.

This left the two=tones pokemon open for attack, first hit by a stream of fire, and them punched in its oddly-shaped nose with a Thunder Punch. The punch was enough to knock Drowzee on its ass, struggling to get to its feet.

Prosper couldn't help but chortle as he watched Drowzee collapse to the soggy floor as Watt and Kyubi launched their double-offensive and attack him as a duo. Their bodies moved together in sync, and their attacks worked effectively together. His Pokemon were really beginning to work as a team and Prosper couldn't have been prouder.

"Alright, you guys. Finish the pompous little thing. Hit him with the same combo, and then let's get on out of here."

Kyubi and watt glanced back at Prosper, nodding at their simple instructions. The Drowzee was already lying flat on its back, so ending the battle with a few swift moves wouldn't be too much of a problem. Watt took a few solemn steps forward, lifting one paw up and watching as it began to glow with a golden aura and crackled with a few sparks. Kyubi drifted forward on her gentle paws, her many tails swishing through the air behind her. Her throat began to warm up as the flames began to rise from the pit of her belly, ready to explode from her muzzle.

In its current position, the Drowzee was a lot less threatening, harmless almost. While paralysis rendered it nearly immobile, giving Ampharos and Vulpix all the time and opportunity to launch their attacks. Battered by Thunderpunch and singed by Flamethrower, the Pokemon's most powerful attacks brought down full force and without inhibitions. Surely it should have knocked it out. Surely.

But if there was anything the Drowzee was besides being an annoying bastard, was being an annoying, resilient bastard. Even with the double attack, the thing still had the ability to get to its feet, though looking far shakier than before. By the sharp tilt in its usually lackluster eyes, it was through goofing around and prepared to get serious. Claw-like hands waved mystically, upping its intense mental abilities while it plotted nastily to itself. Focusing on the smaller of the two, seeming a lot less enduring than the large electric type, it unleashed Psychic, the mental waves slamming into the Vulpix consciousness like a speeding truck. Reeled back, splayed on the grass, shook her head, and felt something drop in her strength.

Prosper's jaw dropped as he watched the double beam of fire and electricity strike the fallen Drowzee head-on and explode around it in a flashy display of elements. He would have sworn on anything that the snide little psychic Pokemon would have been out of commission... but as the fireworks faded away, the yellow form of the Pokemon climbed to its feet. The darn little thing must have been hanging on with the last vestiges of its strength. Why did these wild Pokemon cling to consciousness so? Whyyyyyyyyyyyyy....

The young trainer recoiled back and flinched as a wave of purple energy washed over Kyubi, throwing her back as if she were some sort of doll. She fell with a thud back down to the earth, her body shaking with the force of the Psychic attack. Shaken though she was, the small fox took a few uncertain steps forward, resuming her position next to her teammate. Watt smiled sympathetically at her, patting her on the back and smoothing out her fur.

"Do not let that thing make one more move. Hit it quick and hard and make sure it stays down."

Prosper commanded coldly, fury brewing inside him that the Drowzee was still standing on two feet. These wild Pokemon were too determined for their own good, and it would only end up costing them when the time came. Prosper tried not to fight too many wild Pokemon that he came along, but he was only too eager to give the annoying ones a knock or two just for the heck of it.

(Please remember that Vulpix has 42/56 HP as of last most.)

Watt came in for an electrical punch, but was a little too slow, getting in the punch right as the wild Drowzee released a thick cloud of Poison Gas. The electricity charged each gas particle coming from the Drowzee's mouth as it fell backwards, fainting, finished with the battle, but Kyubi was not.

The little Vulpix unleashed her fire stream the same moment as Watt's attack, but the actual heat and flame did not reach the cloud until it was fully charged and reacted to the fire in a mini-explosion, temporarily clearing the fog, though it was quickly replaced.

Boom! It went, catching Watt and the already-fainted Drowzee in the middle, leaving Kyubi unscathed for the most part, but Watt suffered severe flash-burns, luckily avoiding being poisoned due to the quick reaction from the fire, but still he was injured, even more so than his vulpine counterpart.

Watt rushed in first, her run more of a waddle then an all-out dash. Her powered-up arm flashed forward, but by that time the air around Drowzee was thick with purple, what looked like poison gas. Electricity seemed to flow through the gas like a current, positively charged... Prosper realized what had happened, and he tried to scream out to Kyubi to stop her attack... But it was too late. The torrent of flames twisted their way forward, and the damage was done.

The fire coiled around the gas and immediately set off the explosion. Prosper threw his arm in front of his face as the attacks exploded like fireworks before his eyes. Watt, the poor thing, was right in the middle of it. She, like Kyubi, was completely blown back by the force of the explosion and rolled several feet along the ground before crumpling in a pathetic heap. Prosper's breath caught in his throat as he just stood there, staring at her.

He suddenly darted forward and kneeled by the Ampharos, examining her body. She had several fresh burns dotted along her body. She moaned in pain, and Prosper rubbed a hand along her head comfortingly. He wished he could do something for her, but he was no Nurse Joy; he simply recalled her back into her Pokeball, realizing that it would be the best thing for her now.

"And Kyubi..." Prosper turned, giving the tiny fire fox a sharp glance. "If there's anything you take away from this experience, it's this; when the opponent looks even remotely defeated, CEASE FIRE."

He emphasized the last two words strongly before recalling Kyubi and hastily tucking her ball back onto his belt. With one last annoyed glare at the unconscious Drowzee, he turned and set off once again along his path. He couldn't believe how something so simply like a Pokemon battle could turn so deadly. If that explosion had been a bit bigger... well, he didn't even want to think about the consequences.

You comforted and scolded your Pokemon where appropriate for their hand in the explosion that shook Murmur Valley just moments before. But now, having recalled the two Pokemon involved in the battle, you had nothing more to do but continue on in your journey and ponder the unknown consequences that may have resulted should that explosion have been a bit bigger.

This explosion, though, was large enough to be seen, heard, and even felt by many Pokemon in the area. This ensured that your immediate area was cleared, and now all you had to worry about on your trip now was the possibility that a giant sinkhole may try to eat your or something.

But, those were fairly rare, and you managed to find your way easily through the Murmur Valley for a little while.

You reached the Mist Valley fairly easily after that.

Prosper noticed as he walked along that he hardly saw any Pokemon anymore, and that most of the noises had died away. The explosion that Kyubi and Watt had created must have scared them all off, he decided. After all, it had been rather loud and had pretty much shaken the valley to the root. He couldn't really blame any of the wild creatures for being a bit scared.

His Poketch beeped again, signaling he had entered another new area. Mist Valley. As he continued walking, he noticed that the mist was slowly beginning to thicken, but even worse, it was cold and wet. His clothes weer starting to become moist and he felt chilled to the bone from the fog that engulfed him. His line of vision was slowly beginning to diminish, and he knew that this was going to make getting into Misthenge all the more difficult.

Each step you took caused the mist to surround you more and more. The silence also enshrouded you, making for quite an eerie hike through the mushy area. At least you were making excellent time without anything interfering with your travels.

But, you and I both know that things can't be all peachy for any lengthy period of time. That would go against everything that we have come to be accustomed to.

So, you were walking when suddenly you felt somethin gon your foot. It was something big, and it continued to move up your legs until you were immobile. The creature raised its over-sized head in front of your face and grinned devilishly. It was quite pleased that lunch had been served.

Prosper walked along calmly when he moved to take another step... and found that one of his feet was not moving. He tugged harder and harder, but it stayed rooted to the foggy and slimy ground. Due to the fog, he couldn't see what was going on... but as something began to curl around his leg, he had a pretty good idea. He tried to shake himself free, but whatever had been hiding along the ground was constricting him too tightly.

Suddenly the Pokemon plunged out of the muck and fully wrapped around him, pulling its vines deep into his skin and causing him to wince. It was a Carnivine... he had encountered a Pokemon like this upon his last visit to Murmur Valley. According to experience, they were persistent creatures and weren't very eager to let go of whatever they considered to be their chosen prey. Not unless they were defeated, of course.

Try as he might, Prosper couldn't even manage to wiggle a finger, let alone lift his hand up and grab a Pokeball. He writhed and shook his entire body, trying to find a weak spot, but every spot seemed to be covered in slimy tentacles. He realized that he wasn't going to get any help from his Pokemon unless they could manage to undo the bind of the Pokeball themselves.

As if in answer to his thoughts, one of the Pokeballs on Prosper's belt emitted a short beep and then snapped open. White energy poured out and assembled itself along the ground, revealing Kyubi, the fire fox, once more. She knew that she would be the one to stand the best chance against Carnivine... and with Prosper binded, she had to fight against her internment in the Pokeball to get out and help him.

Prosper emitted a muffled kind of cheer as he saw Kyubi standing a few feet away. He was hoping to shout her praise, but he found that Carnivine had also thrown a green vine along his mouth, tethering him up and preventing any comprehensible speech.

Kyubi threw back her head gracefully and bared her teeth, showing two rows of pearly white, glistening fangs. She then spread her muzzle open more and a plume of flames poured out, aimed directly at the Carnivine's face. At the same time, a peculiar purple aura seemed to emanate from her fur... she was attempting to throw Carnivine off of Prosper via her minor psychic powers to get a clearer shot and to avoid harming her trainer.

[Hope having Kyubi release herself isn't God-modding, but if it is, just let me know. I've seen it done in the anime, sans Misty's Psyduck, so I just figured I'd give it a shot.]

Little Vulpix's decisions were a bit dubious, perhaps, but there was really nothing anyone could do to stop the darling. The flames hit the Carnivine, but seeing as how the Pokemon was quite entangled with the trainer, there was no real distinction between the two. Carnivine and Prosper were entwined, having become one. And this one was what the fire hit. Some of the vines in the front were badly singed, but well, it helped when Carnivine had a nice meat shield in front to protect it.

The good thing was, Vulpix had thought this far ahead, and the flames weren't at full power, otherwise Prosper would have been quite literally cooked. As a result, it was only a light grill. It still made him smell all the more pleasing, however. With the thinner vines disintegrated, and the larger vines damaged, the large plant had no choice but to release his prey, at least until he had gotten rid of the annoying little red snack. With a sinister chuckle and a rather misleading misdirection, the Carnivine moved into place with a Faint attack, causing the psychic concentration exercise to miss its target.

Then, with a deep bow, the Carnivine Bit. Straight over the Vulpix's head. And there it stayed. Poor Vulpix, her head was now trapped inside the venus fly trap's monstrously large mouth.

[So.. umm.. what happened to the Extrasensory?...]


Prosper shut his eyes as he watched Kyubi release her attack. Her Extrasensory had begun... but it didn't seem to be doing anything. That kinda saddened him, because that meant he would be caught in the crossfire of her flamethrower attack. He waited for the pain... and sure enough, flames began to lick at him around the edges and he felt welts forming along his skin where he was scorched from the blazing attack. Luckily it wasn't too bad, and even more generously, Carnivine seemed to be releasing its hold.

But, much to Prosper's dismay, the Carnivine was not planning on running away, but instead picking its way forward. It launched into the air, giant mouth spread wide... and it snapped down right upon poor Kyubi's head. She screamed shrilly as she was suddenly plunged into darkness and as the grass Pokemon's jagged teeth scraped against her.

"Kyubi, don't be afraid! You're in a good position, believe it or not. Release a Fire Blast directly into Carnivine's mouth, then throw it off with Extrasensory again. And Make sure it works this time."

Kyubi listened intently to Prosper's yells of command, even though she was a little preoccupied. She had a giant mouth enclosing her, and it was dark... and there was saliva dripping along all of her pristine fur... oh, it was disgusting. Oh, she couldn't believe this... Carnivine was nasty! The Vulpix opened her mouth once again, ready to throw her strongest fire attack directly down Carnivine's throat. There was a chance she might catch some of the crossfire, but she was a fire-type and so it surely couldn't bother her too much. After all, it was her own attack.

Carnivine had the upper hand in the battle. It was seemingly impervious to to your small fox's attacks. Luckily, cavalry was on the way to help.

One round from a pistol echoed through the valley of mist. Then another. Then another. Soon, an entire clip had been emptied out on the grass pokemon. Carnivine groaned and moaned, releasing its grip on the battle and fleeing in to the fog.

'You alright, kid?' A strong voice beckoned. The figure of the law enforcement officer emerged from the mist while holstering his weapon. He was clothed in the steotypical police garb. 'Hey... thats a mighty-fine Vulpix you got there.. mind if I take a better look?' The shady fellow asked, walking slowly towards you and your fire fox.

Prosper waited a few moments, expecting to see some sort of reaction out of Carnivine when Kyubi released her fire blast. But he waited... and nothing happened. All of a sudden, several gunshots rang out through the air and Prosper jumped almost a foot in the air. He noticed that Carnivine had released Kyubi and fled out into the fog. Kyubi, shaking saliva from her fur, ran back to Prosper, smiling gleefully up at him.

Turning, Prosper noticed the source of the gunfire. A man in a police uniform was approaching, holstering his gun. Prosper's eyes narrowed... why was there a police officer out here? It was strange, someone just happening to be out here.

"Did you just shoot that Pokemon?" Prosper question, shooting a glare at the officer. He really didn't like the actions of the man, firing directly at the Pokemon. It's not like Kyubi had been in any mortal danger; she had been more than capable of handing it herself. Had the officer merely been trying to help, or were there other motives?

Listening to the police officer mention something about his "mighty-fine Vulpix," Prosper took an involuntary step backwards. Hastily, he unclipped Kyubi's Pokeball from his belt and recalled her before she could protest. He put the Pokeball back and then turned, staring back at the officer. The man looked very mysterious, and from the way he talked, something seemed weird... what was that feeling that he couldn't shake off? Why couldn't he trust this man? He did help him, after all...

"Erm, yes, she is very special... but, unfortunately, she's very timid around strangers. So, umm... thank you very much for your help, but I better get going soon."

The officer nodded when asked about shooting the pokemon. 'It's my job kid, to protect the weak.' He didn't think much of the blatant diss against you. He was, how you say, a jackass.

With the disappearance of the Vulpix, the officer halted his advance forward and let a sour look creep onto his face. He wanted to have a closer look, and here you were... taking that chance from him.

'Go? Go where? I just got here... Stay a while...' The officer threatened, and released a pokemon of his own; A rather large Tentacruel. Obviously, he didn't intend on letting you go anywhere.

Prosper frowned as he listened to the officer call him flat-out "weak," but the look of surprise faded to alarm as the police officer assumed a sour look as he noticed that Kyubi was no longer out. The officer whipped out a Pokeball and then tossed it forward. A Pokemon bigger then most Prosper had seen came out, towering over him. A rather large Tentacruel, staring at him menacingly and waving its tentacles threateningly.

"W-Watt, help me!"

Prosper cried out, his hand sliding over his belt. His fingers clenched over Watt's Pokeball and he hurled it forward. The golden Ampharos erupted out, nodding calmly at Prosper and trying to reassure him. Electricity crackled around form dangerously... she didn't take kindly to threats. She took a few steps forward, staring boldly up at the Tentacruel in spite of the size difference between them. She wouldn't feel threatened just because it looked scarier then she did. Judging by simple looks, they almost matched in terms of power, but that wasn't always a guarantee of a fair match.

Glancing back at Prosper for orders, she noticed that the boy was shaking uncontrollably and staring at her with a blank look. Why... why was he acting so timidly? She had never seen him like that before. Truth was, Prosper had never learned to trust many adults in his life before, what with the way he had been treated by his mother so much in his lifetime. And here was supposed to be one of the few people he could always count on, a police officer, and he was being ambushed...

Shrugging, Watt turned back towards her opponent, the twisting electricity that wound its way around her reaching a breaking point. She was ready to explode with her most powerful attack, and she hoped it would give the Tentacruel a fair warning that she wasn't going to back down.

Before you and your giant electric sheep coudl do much, the officer's Tentacruel used its spee dto its advantage to strike first. Well, it didn't actually strike...

Using its tentacles, the water/poison hybrid twirled them around in a circular motion, causing a plethora of high-pitched sounds to resonate throughout the valley. The first could be recognized as a Supersonic attack, and there was also a Screech mixed in there as well.

Watt winced as its ears were bombarded by the two hindering attacks, instantly becoming confused at the water types undeniable speed and tactical prowess.

'There ya go. Let that thing beat itself up!'


That's just what Ampharos did in its confusion. It's electricial build-up was released, but not in the way prosper had intended. Instead, Ampharos basically smacked itself in the face with a Thunder Punch sort of thing. Why? Nobody can explain confusion, so I won't try.

Prosper threw his hands over his ears as the Tentacruel screeched out a sound like nails on a chalkboard, a banshee's scream. He felt slightly dizzy, but eventually the sound faded away and his ears quieted down, settling only for a constant hum as they tried to adjust back. Glancing forward, Prosper noticed that Watt wasn't taking it quite as well... her Discharge attack had somehow traveled to her arm and she punched herself with it. Uhh... wut?

Shrugging off the annoying feeling that Tentacruel was faster then Watt, Prosper took a few steps forward, frowning at the state of Watt's condition. She was standing there, her frame dizzily twisting as she tried to focus on the battle before her. Obviously, from the looks of it, Tentacruel had confused her... and that was going to make it harder for her to continue battling, especially with her already weakened state.

"C'mon, Watt, snap out of it. You can do it... I know you're not going to let that stupid, overgrown jellyfish get the better of you! Just release all the electricity that's left in your body. You don't even really have to try and aim it, Tentacruel is such a big target that it shouldn't be too much trouble to hit it!"

Prosper's words seemingly blurred together in Watt's mind as she tried to focus. She held her paws to her head, trying to steady her train of thought as Tentacruel's wailing continued to reverberate through her brain even thought it had actually stopped. Prosper, meanwhile, had taken to staring daggers at the "policeman" that stood opposite him. How could someone that donned so noble a uniform act like this with no remorse? Was there just no justice left in Opaddeka? All Prosper knew was that he would never trust anyone claiming nobility again.

The pfocer let an evil smirk creep onto his face. It was a feather in his cap if his Tentacruel was able to defeat a pokemon that had such a difinitive type advantage. It looked like it was going to happen though, as the jellyfish hovered in the mist.

Ampharos stumbled around, trying to keep its senses about her. She winced, trying to see straight. Seeing this, the law enforcement officer grinned even more, knowing that the battle was in his hands. 'Finish it!'

Tentacruel grunted in ackowledgement, lunging forward with his tentacles in place. The tall electric pokemon was bombarded with several Poison Jabs from the said tentacles, causing it to fall to the mud. Tentacruel didn't come out of the battle unscathed, however. He cringed as electrical current shot into her body.

Watt's Static had left a lasting effect on the opponent, surely to make your next choice's task all the more easier.

Prosper was shocked. He had never seen one of his Pokemon so blatantly destroyed without even laying a hand on the opposition. Watt had come into the battle ready to fight, but right after she had been confused by Supersonic it seemed that Tentacruel had gained the upper hand completely. Oh well... Prosper knew that every battle wasn't going to go his way, and this was just an example of it. There was no use in crying over spilled milk, so all he needed to do now was keep on fighting.

"Xyla, you're up next. Show 'em the first round was just a fluke!"

Unclipping another Pokeball, Prosper spun it forward. Xyla fluttered out, letting her wings spread wide as she touched down to the ground, eyeing the Tentacruel with disgust. The giant jellyfish was waving those slimy tentacles once more and Xatu shuddered, turning to look at Prosper instead.

"Alright, Xyla, start off with a Confuse Ray and then blast with Psychic!"

Prosper... are you sure that's wise? From the looks of it, Watt managed to paralyze it... is one status condition not enough? Wouldn't Wish be a better choice, so I can heal myself later, when I need it?

"Oh, right.... ahh, okay. Go with that then."

Prosper smiled nervously, nodding at Xyla to give her the ok. He knew she was right... after all, Tentacruel was already indisposed, and by the time it had finished its attacks Xyla would surely be hurting and in desperate need of a healing from Wish. He just wished he could have figured that out on his own and not have been in need of help from his own Pokemon.

The officer grimmaced when he saw the psychic bird. Sure... his Tentacruel had defeated one of your pokemon that had an advantage over it, but two was pushing it. Still, his pride wouldn't let him flee without proving himself and his pokemon worthy enough to tangle with the likes of a little kid.

'Cruela! Snap out if would'ya!? Supersonic and Screech, just like before!' The corrupt official barked. By then, it was too late, however, as the Xatu begun its odd wing movements.

Up and down, straight out to the sides, bent backwards and forwards, and even swirling around like a spinning top... those things were something else. All at once, Psychic powers emerged from the relatively small bird, immobilizing Tentacruel where she hovered. The mental attacks were too much, and the officer returned his defeated pokemon.

'You'll pay for this kid, just you wait and see! You haven't seen the last of me!' Empty threats from a frustrated defeated trainer, I would assume. With those words, he bounced off into the ever-growing mist/fog/whatever you wanna call it.

I modded two turns to save time, seeing as I assumed you would do the same thing probably with the Psychic. I hope that's alright.

"Great job!"

Prosper bounced forward and bent down, hugging Xyla tightly before bending back up. he smiled a toothy grin as he watched the fake officer recall his Pokemon and then disappear back into the mist. Prosper yelled after him, jeering at him for losing to a simple little kid that he had had the stupidity to challenge.

The young trainer turned, beckoning for Xyla to follow after him. After what had happened with the so-called law enforcer, he wasn't sure that he wanted to be all by himself out here in the valley. Maybe it would be better to have some company... or at least, someone to talk to.

A beep rang out from Prosper's pocket, and he delved in and grabbed hold of his Poketch. He clicked on the new bulletins button and several posts popped up, each from trainers all over Opaddeka. He skimmed through each of the stories... huh? Crime? Team Rocket? Police officers... harassing people? What was going on? Had Team Rocket banded together with a bunch of petty thieves just to steal from trainers widespread? How strange...

Prosper suddenly found himself walking much faster and waving for Xyla to follow beside him more closely. It seemed crime had suddenly sprung up all over the continent... how could that be happening? It seemed like just yesterday that they had fought off Darkrai and his minions, now a whole different conspiracy was flaring up It seemed too unreal.

Crime. Is. Awesome.

Crooks are pretty awesome when they aren't bumbling idiots that don't know what they are doing. Fortunately you had just succeeded in preventing something like that from happening. Surely you wouldn't get struck twice in a row... right...?

...

An odd buzzing filled the air as the fog thickened around you. Soon you couldn't see much of anything in front of you, but the distinct sound of the buzzing continued. Exactly what it was would be had to figure out unless you could find a way to see through fog.

Good luck with that.

"Ugh... this fog bites."

Prosper muttered bitterly as he reached yet another new area in Murmur Valley aptly named the Unclearable Fog Marsh. The fog here was thicker than ever... he could barely see his own hand waving in front of his face. And the only reason he knew that Xyla was still beside of him was that she was chatting with him. He still felt along out here, though; it was just such a lonely place.

Prosper... watch your step. What with this crime wave and the total lack of visibility we're sure to be in for rough last leg of the trip to Misthenge.

"Hmm, alright, thanks. But I wonder how longer it'll be to the city. I'm so tired, and I am sooooo sick of his horrible place. Seriously, why would anyone want to build a city out here? What a waste of time."

Perhaps... some people like the privacy. After all, Prosper, I used to live here... I actually found it to be quite a nice place. Especially if you like to keep to yourself.

Prosper glanced sideways at the Xatu, frowning. He normally liked to be by himself, but just the feel and mood of Murmur Valley completely turned him away from the experience. He preferred places like Brightopolis, where he had spent so much of his time. It was constantly sunny and wealthy in picture-perfect weather.

The buzzing of the bug slowly faded away as you walked on and went about your business. It was probably for the best, seeing as that sound came from a legendary version of Mew. Ok, it didn't, but you don't know that. It very would could have...

Anyways, sticking along the coast of the marsh was the quickest way to get to Misthenge, so I will assume that's what you are doing. Mainly because that's the easiest way for me to say that you

0.2 :gexp Whoa, I totally didn't know Sinklands 2 was there. XD It sorta just pokes in there, haha.

Prosper whipped out his Poketech once more, his eyes flicking over it. He had entered into the second round of the sinklands, and according to the map it was only a hop and a skip away from Misthenge City. He smiled, tucking the device back away into his pocket. If he was lucky, he would be falling into a nice warm bed in the Pokemon Center, out and away from this dreary cold, before night fell. But he would have to pick up the pace, because even though the sun's warm rays barely penetrated the fog he could tell time was escaping him judging by the falling temperature. The digital clock on his Poketech didn't hurt to much, either.

"Well, Xyla, are we close?"

Hmm... I think so. I can sense a rather large grouping of energies up ahead, so either it's a town or we're about to get ambushed by a REALLY big mob.

Prosper grinned. He didn't think Xyla had it in her to crack a joke. Perhaps he really was breaking through his Pokemon's shells, discovering who they really were on the inside. After catching them, he had discovered, none too surprisingly, that they were really unresponsive and preferred to bottle themselves up instead. But the barriers were beginning to break and he was seeing them for who they really were.

A grimer.

Xyla shot him another thought, and he glanced up, noticing the purple, slimy creature sitting on the path just up ahead. He looked sideways at Xyla, motioning for her to quickly take care of it so they could continue on. She took a few silent steps forward, closing her eyes and entering a sort of trance. Wind began to stir up around her, ruffling her feathers. A tiny purple glow emitted from body and she began to build up her psychic energies, ready to send them surging forward in a devastating blast.

Xyla drilled dazzling light into the mushy thing, which absorbed it and began to undulate peculiarly. It was befuddled at the situation, then launched a perfectly round, if sloppy, part of itself into the big green and white thing that had approached. It exploded forcefully over the xatu's feathers, made her squawk, but with a flick of her head she seemed to recover and in the same motion the grimer was plucked from the ground, making sticky sucking noises as it was detatched from the mud. It gargled and wretched as invisible forces pulled it this way and that, twisting the purple blob in the air like dough, then after a moment it was dropped to the floor in a sloppy heap. Ewww.

Prosper's face grimaced as he watched the Grimer launch a blob of itself at Xyla. It spread out and slopped all over Xyla's preened feathers. She squeaked with displeasure, before glancing back up at the Grimer with displeasure crossing her features. She then proceeded to lift the putrid Pokemon into the air, twist it around like play-doh, then sent it plummeting back to the soggy ground in a disgusting mess. Prosper had looked away at this point, about to retch from the nasty sight. He quickly began to walk away, his face an unsightly shade of green. Xyla, shooting the disfigured Grimer one last loathing look, turned and followed after him.

I'm... sorry Prosper, I hope that wasn't too much of an unsightly.. err... sight. But, you know, the slimeball messed up my feathers and you know how I hate that.

"Yes, I do, Xyla... but, ahh... forgive me if I don't talk for awhile, I'm trying to concentrate on NOT tossing my cookies."

Xyla's mouth twisted into a grin as she plodded after him, simultaneously bending down and trying to brush away the last of the slime from her light-green feathers. It had stained them in quite an ugly fashion, and she simply couldn't stand for that. As much as she loved her former home, she decided that Pokemon like Grimer needed to be gathered up and sent away somewhere... like the sewers.

Things were entirely clear for the rest of the second Sinklands, thankfully. Anything that saw your Xatu totally tear that Grimer apart would well know to stay away.

You proceeded through the area into the second Unclearable Fog Marsh — this meant that you were very close now to Misthenge. Finding it, however, was a totally different matter. The mists were clinging much closer than they had been before; it was tough to see barely a few feet in front of you. You wandered around, trying to find any sign of civilization. Finally, after a while of wandering, you see some lights... but you don't think that they're of a city.

In actuality, they were two pokémon! A Volbeat and an Illumise were flitting around above, their tail lights glimmering faintly through the thick fog. They didn't really seem to notice you.

Prosper squinted as he entered yet another new area, and the endless fog seemed to be getting even thicker... if that was even possible. He couldn't see anything, and it was one of the many reasons he despised this place so much. But Misthenge was so close... as soon as he reached the city, he was sure most of the pesky fog would disappear. One can only hope...

Noticing the dancing lights in the distance, Prosper thought he had discovered some sort of natural phenomenon. But he moved closer, looking up. Two colorful forms danced above him, their tails shimmering with silver. Prosper smiled, recognizing the pair of Pokemon-- Volbeat and Illumise. He had heard that they almost always traveled in pairs and were generally a peaceful species, preferring to merely broadcast their lights innocently.

Halfway tempted to engage the two in a battle, Prosper merely waved at the two and kept right on walking, checking his Poketch again. Xyla watched the pair of bugs curiously, her neck craning around as she walked past to observe them better. They were quite interesting... when she had lived here as a wild Pokemon, she had seen roving lights like them in the distance but never seen them up close.

"C'mon, we're almost there..." Prosper whispered, blindly moving through the fog. "Just a little bit longer."

As if any hasn't ever had to describe walking through a marsh, you trudged through the clinging mud and flora, knowing that beyond this seemingly endless wall of fog laid Misthenge, a not-quite-so-bustling city, where you could happily recuperate from your travels, and see.

Emerging from the fog and mist were two shining forms, a pair of bug Pokemon, Illumise and Volbeat. They seemed content to pass you by, and besides the few nagging trainer-thoughts, you were too. You passed them easily, and continued on towards Misthenge, which was little more than a hop-skip-and-a-jump away.
