Curtis exited Malral with a bit of a different party. He had put Numel, Metapod, and Taillow back. But had added a new member to his team. Yet another gift from the same girl that had given him Shellder, Steely. In his opinion now she was one of the most awesome people he'd ever met. Two free pokemon? What more could someone ask for. However he really knew nothing about this new Pokemon that he had obtained. All he knew was that it was called a Porygon. So with that, he reached down for the Porygon's pokeball and released it in front of him. It was a strange looking pokemon, and looked absolutely artificial. He pulled out the pokedex and scanned it in an almost practiced motion by now. The dex sounded off, "A man-made Pokemon created using advanced scientific means. It can move freely in cyberspace." He blinked a bit at this entry. "Move freely in Cyberspace? What does that even mean?" He then pocketed the Pokedex again and looked over to the Porygon. "Well Hello there! I am Curtis, and your old trainer Steely gave you to me. I'ma make you a major member of the team I am forming." He spoke to the pokemon as it just floated there staring at him. It really had no emotion, and just kind of stared eerily. He motioned for the Porygon to follow as they disappeared into the fog that was just outside of Malral. The Porygon followed, but seemed as though it wasn't too pleased about having to travel with this stranger. However it's new trainer had no idea what his new Pokemon was capable of. So with that in mind, the Porygon's mind reached out as it concentrated on the small device in Curtis' pocket... his Poketech. Then suddenly a voice could be heard coming from it's speaker. "Where are we even going to?" This made Curtis stop. He reached into his pocket pulling out the Poketech for a moment. "What the hell? Who are you!" Curtis demanded at the device. The voice then chuckled, before speaking once more. "Why it's me, turn around." With that being heard, Curtis turned to see absolutely no one, other than that Porygon just floating there staring again. He just had a puzzled look as the voice on the device spoke once more. "Me you idiot. I can project myself into electronic devices... Now where are we going." "Ummm Misthenge..." He explained to the Pokemon, still a bit confused. "Well then you are going the wrong way. Follow me." The Porygon demanded as it floated up in front of him now, with him following close behind. This fog was so thick he could barely see even three feet in front of himself now. ---------------------------- Currently in: Unclearable Fog Marsh 1 Landmarks to go: Sinklands 2, Unclearable Fog Marsh 2, Misthenge Destination: Misthenge |

0.3 ![]() The fog was meant to be thick and impenetrable, with only a technique of legend possibly dispell the murk enough to safely travel across. Yet, much like the thick forest you previously bumbled through, you would have to search without your vision, and probably with your face. Thankfully, with you living GPS navigator, who even needs eyes anyway? Just follow the floating manifestation of data. The mist growled back at you, and Porygon halted in its tracks, seeming to take in the approaching object. Two bleak yellow eyes stared back, above a set of oversized canines rolling the growls your way. Watchout, its...! LV 11

.2 God this fog was terrible. He could not see a damned thing, and he had to trust his new Porygon which was leading the way. He did though, if what it had explained to him a few minutes ago was true, it could easy access map functions and act a lot like a guide to this region. Which was absolutely a good thing. Suddenly though the Porygon stopped, "A wild Poochyena is up ahead." This made Curtis reach down for one of the pokeballs on his belt. He released the pokemon inside, dragging out his Shellder. "Alright, Thanks. Shellder use your Ice Beam on that dog." he gave the command to the purple shell who happily complied, preparing to use this attack. "Aim for those yellow eyes boy." he added once he was getting ready. Porygon then backed away letting Shellder hop out in front of both of them. Curtis watched eagerly, Shellder had been doing so well ever since he got it, and has set himself as a member of the team for life. He was hoping that Porygon would do the same, but knew all too well that the dog out-leveled the little cyber pokemon. Which reminded him once more, he wanted to give everyone a name now. Hmmm what to call a Pokemon that constantly deals with Cyberspace though? Then it hit him. The perfect name for this pokemon. He however would wait until this battle was over to discuss such a matter, after-all now was the time to concentrate. ![]() LV 12 24/24-using Ice Beam VS ![]() LV 11 22/22-mad Edited by Curtis, Aug 18 2009, 02:56 PM.

0.3 ![]() The Poochyena glared at the little crustacean with feral hunger. Looks like this tyke was into seafood. It leaped ahead, just as Shellder shot for another one of those magical Ice rays that supposedly turn stuff into blocks of ice. Can you believe, in this instance, the beam actually -bounced- off the Poochyena's fur? Well, it refracted most of it. Guess there's nothing as toasty as Poochyena fur, a suitable counter against the cold. But no time for that now, the dog wasn't fazed in the least, rolling its eyes and Swagger'd back at Shellder. Looks like it grew so mad it was seeing stars! And then well...not really seeing anything but the red haze of rage-induced confusion. LV 12 24/24-Attack+2 -Confused vs Lv 11 15/22

.3 Shellder was obviously getting angry at the Poochyena. Which wasn't really a good thing since he'd just be blinded with anger. With that Curtis sighed, knowing perfectly well that it'd be troublesome to keep on going with Shellder in this fight. He returned him into his pokeball, and reached down grasping Bloom's. He released her and smiled down at her for a moment, "Okay Bloom, I need you to use Razor Leaf to get rid of that Poochyena." Bloom complied getting herself ready to use the move commanded. She felt confident that she would emerge victorious. After-all this dog shouldn't be too much of a problem right? Curtis just crossed his arms with a bit of a smile on his face. He was always proud of his starter, she was by far the strongest of all his pokemon, and probably the most trusted. ![]() LV 15 45/45-getting ready to use Razor Leaf VS ![]() LV 11 15/22-mad as hell |

.2 ![]() The dark pup snarled and skidded to a stop when the shellfish was replaced with a leafy, green dinosaur like thing. These trainer things and their trickery, switching Pokemon around when the wild things had to fend for themselves. Well, if she was going to go down, she was going to hurt the thing before it could hurt her. Bloom prepared the razor leaves, but just before they were supposed to be sent flying, the dog shot forward in a blur, paw slamming into the grass type's face before she could react. The Sucker Punch was effective, but not nearly enough, for once Bulbasaur recovered, it was raining razor sharp leaves, leaving the dark dog fainted in the wet grass. Bulbasaur and Shellder get .6 ! Bulbasaur is at 33/45 .

.3 That Poochyena was a tricky little bugger, managing to hit Bloom before she could use her Razor Leaf. However much like Curtis had expected... his pokemon had been victorious. Bloom rushed back over to him with the biggest smile on her face. Something strange was occurring though, she was glowing a lot like his Caterpie had. She was Evolving! Luckily though, Bulbasaur was the only pokemon he'd ever really read up on, so he knew what to expect. A beautiful and graceful Ivysaur. Bloom grew a bit bigger in size, and the seed that was once on her back now transformed into a flower on her back. Leaves formed around the flower and now hung down slightly. She stopped glowing as Curtis reached down to hold his starter. She was already in her 2nd form, it wouldn't be all that much longer until she would be in her final evolution. "You did amazing Bloom, but I'm going to have to put you away for now cause we gotta get a move on." He said withdrawing her into the pokeball. "Shall I continue?" Porygon's voice rang over the small device Curtis was still holding. "Yes, but first I'd like to let you know that I'm going to name you Hacker. Seems to be a fitting name don't ya think?" Curtis asked as his Porygon began moving again. "A Wonderful name, but i still suggest we be moving." So he shrugged it off and chased after Porygon through the thick fog. God this lack of vision was horrible, and his mind began to wander on the subject of the pokemon in this area. What in they're right mind would stay in a place they could barely see? ---------------------------------------------------- Currently in: Unclearable Fog Marsh 1 Landmarks to go: Sinklands 2, Unclearable Fog Marsh 2, Misthenge Destination: Misthenge Edited by Curtis, Aug 19 2009, 05:43 PM.

0.3 ![]() SPLASH! Oops. Looks like Porygon led you right into a nice sink puddle. There are plenty of them around these parts, be careful! Murmur Valley happens to be the place were land and sea blend, and a move in the wrong direction could just send you into deep water with your next step. Course that was easier said than done, trying to find your way through this murk when you can barely see your own outstretched hand. Guess all your hopes had to lie with Porygon who, although can navigate unerringly to your destination, couldn't really help with identifying puddles and sinkholes and other nasty hidden dangers. Speaking of hidden dangers, there seemed to be something moving in that very puddle you were waist-deep in. Something cold. And slimy. And crawling up your pants leg. And...stroking your leg lovingly? Ew?! Lv 13 -Molesting you <3 Edited by Shadowheart, Aug 19 2009, 06:14 PM.

.3 And so they were walking, and walking, and walking... when suddenly something happened. WHAM! He suddenly sunk down into the soggy dirt that this area had. It was at least waist deep and terribly hard to move through, "Hey Hacker slow down a bit will ya! It's pretty hard to move through here." His pokemon stopped dead in it's tracks and turned to look at him, "Maybe you should just learn how to fly." Hacker stated sarcastically with a bit of a chuckle. He knew very well that HE could not learn how to fly, but at least the thought was amusing. Then something even stranger happened. The puddle of soggy soil began moving around his leg region. In more of a thrusting motion then anything else. "What the hell?" he said reaching down into the mud with one of his hands. He felt around for a little while before grabbing ahold of something. It felt slimy, but he had a good enough grip to pull it completely out of the Mud. It was a strange looking little creature. "Hey Hacker, I can't exactly whip out the Pokedex, you think you could identify this thing?" Hacker floated over towards the little blue creature looking it over for a moment. He scanned the databases of his trainer's near by pokedex before speaking. "Why it's nothing more than just a Poliwag." he stated. Curtis shrugged and just put the thing down on top of the soggy soil he was navigating through, and kept moving along side Hacker. Hopefully it wouldn't bother him or anything. ------------------------------------ Currently in: Unclearable Fog Marsh 1 Landmarks to go: Sinklands 2, Unclearable Fog Marsh 2, Misthenge Destination: Misthenge Edited by Curtis, Aug 19 2009, 06:32 PM.

.2 ![]() I assume Tad meant to say you were in Sinklands 2, so let's just say that's where you were. Curtis managed to haul himself up out of the muck, and pull the Poliwag off. It didn't seem too pleased, squirming and trying to go back to what he was doing. So when Curtis and Porygon continued on after putting the Poliwag down, it trotted after them. As Curtis was skirting around a patch of soggy, sinking ground, the Poliwag jumped back on his leg and... yeah. Very friendly little water type you met there. -- ![]() Level 13 *Still molesting your leg* |

.3 "Gah!" he exclaimed as he continued on through a different puddle of soggy land. It seems that the Poliwag was back, and began doing the same thing it had done before. Molesting his leg. At that point he pulled it off once more, and looked at it quietly for a moment. "Hello there, I think that'd be my leg you were humping away at... Is there any reason why?" he asked this question pretty blunt. "Curtis, I am also capable of understanding the language of pokemon if you ever needed a translation." Hacker spoke up floating back over to this scene. What did this Poliwag thing want? Maybe it was a sign that this little water type wanted to join him, or maybe it just wanted a mate? Hopefully it was the second cause relentless humping could possibly get on his nerves at some point. Edited by Curtis, Aug 21 2009, 12:25 PM.

.2 ![]() Poliwag flailed his feet in the human's grip before stopping and sagging a little. Man, not having arms sucked. The little water... tadpole thing finally got a good look at what was holding him up... Hey, this was not a sexy female Poliwag. His friends had lied to him. D: "Sorry, I thought you were a lady thing," D: the little fish thing chirped, and started to wiggle around in Curtis's hands to get away. Man, how embarrassing. Now he just wanted to get away and hide somewhere. Stupid friends tricking him. He just wanted to be looooooved. D: That was never going to happen now. Man.

.3 Curtis looked at it for a moment as it now squirmed around in his hands. Hmmm. He then looked over at Hacker, "So What's this thing saying?" The Porygon's constant blank stare was interrupted by a voice over his Poketech. "It thought you were a female." it stated simply, and the voice was followed by a few moments of laughter. "Very Funny... but you can go about your business now little guy." With that said Curtis set the tadpole back into the soggy soil, and motioned for Hacker to keep trudging onwards into the fog. So once again with Hacker out in front, Curtis followed it the best he could. After-all going in out of those sink holes was hard work. Mainly because they were so hard to move through. "Any idea of where we are right now?" He asked as he kept on moving forward. He couldn't really tell, mainly because this fog was just so dense, he had no clue where the hell they could be. The electronic styled voice spoke once more through the Poketech, "We are currently in an area known as the Sinklands." it informed him. The Sinklands? That wasn't really that far off! Right? Hell it's not like it mattered all that much. ----------------------- Currently in: Sinklands 2 Landmarks to go: Unclearable Fog Marsh 2, Misthenge Destination: Misthenge Edited by Curtis, Aug 21 2009, 12:54 PM.

.2 ![]() The Poliwag bolted off as quickly as he could, eager to go hide in a puddle somewhere, or throw mud at his friends. Or something. Either way, he was out of there before something else bad happened to him. Luckily, with the Porygon Guide, you were able to avoid anymore pitfalls. Not so luckily, the fog, impossibly, seemed to get even thicker. No wonder this was called the "Unclearable" Fog Marsh. Good luck getting through it, kid! Reached: Unclearable Fog Marsh 2 |

.2 Curtis managed to get away from those pitfalls of soggy mud, and it was about time. He'd been navigating through them for a while, and it was really getting to him. After-all being engulfed in waist deep mud always sucked. Not to mention that he'd need some new clothes now, and whenever he decided to leave Misthenge. After-all he'd have to go through the sink lands again. Hacker just continued on as they exited those pesky pitfalls, with it's new trainer right behind. Something changed however, the fog began taking more visibility than it had before, making it thicker. "Jesus. I can barely even see my hands. Hacker stop for a second." With that Curtis place a hand on the floating pokemon's head. "I don't plan on getting lost, so we'll keep on going like this." he told his pokemon. "If you insist." Hacker said as they continued moving. Not much Farther to Misthenge! Thank god! --------------- Currently in: Unclearable Fog Marsh 2 Landmarks to go: Misthenge Destination: Misthenge |

.2 ![]() And so, Curtis continued blindly into the mist, led by his Porygon guide. Given that it was a fog marsh, the trip was very wet and sticky and sloppy and full of mud. The mist also held hidden dangers, like logs and stumps one would typically find in a marsh. These were very handy for tripping up trainers who couldn't see them! Which was how Curtis ended up faceplanting a few times, occasionally dragging his poor Porygon down with him. Now that they were both liberally coated in mud, they looked like those mudmen from the Goosebumps series, which helped scare away any other Pokemon. Luckly, the Porygon had his built in GPS, which kept him on course throughout the whole ordeal. Even if he couldn't detect stumps and roots and faceplants. But at long last, something loomed through the fog. Gasp, could this be Misthenge? Sure looked like it! Long story short: Misthenge. Gtfo. :< |

So Curtis was back in this place once again. This time he was going to be heading north, up towards Mayriver. To get there though, he'd have to trudge through this god forsaken valley one more time. Hopefully it wouldn't be a while until he returned to Misthenge. This trek might be a bit easier... after-all once someone goes through it once, it can't be that bad right? With that positive thought in mind he exited the town, and headed out into the foggy abyss one more time. Hacker was obviously out with him, helping him out on which direction to go. He'd brought the two newest pokemon he'd received as well, a Spheal from a kid who was no longer going to be a trainer, and a Totodile that he got when he traded off that egg he found with Bulbasaur. Hacker was out in front like always leading the way through the fog, and Curtis was holding the very irritated Spheal in his arms. "Oh come on buddy." he pleaded with it, a bit of a hopefully look on his face. "I thought we could become real good friends. What do you think?" In hearing his offer, the Spheal just huffed, and put an annoyed look. She in truth wanted nothing to do with Curtis, even though he wasn't really doing anything to show harm. Infact he was being pretty nice. Curtis just looked down at the little seal with a bit of a disappointed look. He really wished she'd be a bit nicer. "Well how would you feel if I gave you a name?" He asked, receiving just another huff from the pokemon. A bit tough to impress huh? "How about this, I'ma call you Snowball." he informed the seal, and he looked up to make sure he was still following Hacker. Now there was nothing to do but enjoy the scenery... but that was pretty much impossible since he couldn't see a damned thing. ------------------------------------------- Currently in: Unclearable Fog Marsh 2 Landmarks to go: Sinklands 2, Unclearable Fog Marsh 1, Mist Valley, Sinklands 1, Soggy Hillside, Healthy Field, Mayriver Destination: Mayriver |

0.3 ![]() Murmur Valley wasn't exactly made to be a money-making tourist attraction. Sure it would appeal to the occasional history/geography nut for how it came to be the desolate place you walked in now, but don't expect to find anything worth gawking at, because there really wasn't anything to gawk at period, even without the mist. Unless you enjoyed gawking at puddles, in which case you should just go dive in the ocean. Porygon led the way faithfully and unerringly, and all you could do was march like a blind man behind it, while the newly named Snowball trundled reluctantly along. I think...maybe you should check again. It was really easy to lose something in the mist. That little ball of blubber was really not looking anything like a Spheal at this point. In fact, it didn't look like any living creature at all. It rolled with a metallic sound and glared at you with two flat eyes, crackling lightly with the sparks of electricity and ticking softly. Tic tic tic...that can't be a good sound. Lv 15 -Tic tic tic... Edited by Shadowheart, Aug 22 2009, 09:11 PM.

.3 After a few moments of walking, he began to hear a light ticking sound. "Hey Hacker, that's not you is it?" he asked out loud for a second. Then the living GPS turned around to speak, "What are you...." it started to say before it spotted the pokemon that was in Curtis' arms. "Why in the hell are you holding a Voltorb!" The trainer stopped walking at that point. "What? No I'm..." he started to say before he saw the round pokemon that was in his arms. "GAH!" he managed to yell out as he dropped the red & white ord pokemon. "Where the hell did Snowball go, and what is that thing!" He demanded pointing at this random pokemon. Hacker then spoke up, "I'm not quite sure where she went, but I'd suggest getting rid of that one before he explodes." Curtis got a bit of a shocked look on his face when he heard those words. He however took Hacker's advice and took a few steps before kicking the thing square in-between the eyes with a lot of force. After doing this he turned to Hacker and started to speak, "We got to re-trace our steps and find Snowball before we can go anywhere." he ordered. Hacker hadn't forgot the exact path they took, and began going back the way they came. After-all Snowball couldn't have gotten far. Edited by Curtis, Aug 22 2009, 09:27 PM.

.2 ![]() So somehow or another, a your Spheal had been switched for a Voltorb. In Curtis's surprise, he threw the Voltorb to the ground... not a good idea, since the electric type didn't like that too much. It buzzed and ticked and... growled, somehow or another, and wasn't too happy with being treated so badly! And then you kicked it. Ka-boom. Everything that had happened thusfar was too much for the already ticking Pokemon to handle, and just a second after Curtis kicked it, the Pokemon EXPLODED spectacularly, sending Curtis flying backwards, and his Porygon flying off in some other direction. So now, half crispy and laying on the ground in the fog, Curtis was without two of his Pokemon. "Spheal?" Though it sounded like the one was nearby. |

.3 GOD DAMN THIS PLACE! That was all that was going through his mind after that Voltorb blew up. This place was just a damned hell hole that he wished never existed. He meant this truthfully. And so he pushed himself up off of the ground and tried to brush off all that soot from the explosion off himself. There was nothing but silence after the Voltorb exploded, all expect for a certain call. He heard something that sounded a lot like Snowball. "Snowball! Hey where are you!" he called out as he began walking towards that sound. "Hey Hacker, help me find her will ya?" When he heard no response, he turned his head and saw nothing around him. Hacker was gone too?!?! What in the hell! This place really really sucks, and he ABSOLUTELY wanted to just blow this place up or something. He'd lost his new Spheal, and the one thing that would help him get out of Murmur Valley. This situation was just plain perfect. His priority was to find Spheal first, after-all Hacker could still contact him through his Poketech, and it'd take a bit more work to find the little Spheal. He stopped in his tracks for a moment, waiting for another call or something, because at the moment, all he could see was fog, and all he could hear was silence. |

"How many assholes we got on this ship anyhow?"

.3 What an awful day you were having. In the distance a weak bedraggled cry rang out. Spheal! Seconds passed and again came the sad little cry which you followed blindly through fog, dutifully seeking out your little round friend. SPHEAL! Your pokemon again cried out, determinedly. The little creature was now right under your feet and lodged firmly in the mud, stuck fast and unable to free itself. It needed you to tug it free of the sticky muck. Your pokenav beeped urgently. Hacker, you had to assume, was trying to contact you form the great beyond. With your spheal now located you could communicate with the Porygon and soon learned that heithad been blown clear of the fog and was now in the Sinklands. Through whatever method you chose, the gadget thing directed you to its location and soon you were in the next landmark, reunited and hopefully a little less stressed. |

.3 Well after a few moments of chasing that cry down, he managed to find Snowball trapped in the mud. He pulled her out obviously, and began to get the mud off of her with his hands. "I'm sorry Snowball, I didn't mean to drop you in the mud like that." he told the pokemon as he picked up his Poketech. Hacker's voice came from it. "Hey! I got blown way out to the Sinklands from that damned thing. I'm sending you Coordinates so we can get out of this place already." "Alright I'm on my way." he said back into the Poketech. That went just like he had planned, Hacker could still contact him through this even though he was lost in the explosion. He looked back down to Snowball in his arms, and continued to wipe the last bits of mud off of her. "I swear it won't happen again, I'ma take real good care of ya." he re-assured her. After all if he didn't care about her, he could've just left Murmur Valley with Hacker, and just ditched her in this foggy mess. He went back for her, and now that he found her would leave as quickly as possible. "I don't plan on losing you again... So your going to have to go back into your Pokeball for a little while." He explained. He pulled out her pokeball and pressed it into her back. Once she was inside he used the Coordinates sent by Hacker to find his location. "There you are buddy!" he said once hacker came into view. "Lets get out of here before something else like that happens." "Agree'd" Then once more with Hacker as a guide, they started to make their way through the Sinklands. This time though, they'd be heading north. ---------------------------------------------- Currently in: Sinklands 2 Landmarks to go: Unclearable Fog Marsh 1, Mist Valley, Sinklands 1, Soggy Hillside, Healthy Field, Mayriver Destination: Mayriver |

.3 Reunited at last. The overwhelming feeling of relief was nearly palatable. Both of your pokemon earned +1 for being found, coddled, reassured, and finally getting a move on.You returned your efforts to trudging through the squashy marsh of the Sinklands, this time veering toward the bank of white mist which marked the next area, Unclearable Fog Marsh 1. Nothing barred your way for once and all too soon you found yourself entombed in the smothering damp of the fog and blind. Well, at least you were making some progress |

.2 Woah, they were actually moving along pretty smoothly for the most part. He was pretty glad for it, cause god only knows what else could creep up on them while they were in those pitfalls that the sinklands contained! Once again he was just in an area that was just doused in fog. This place really was just one big death trap waiting to happen, and he seriously had to wonder how anything or why anything would want to live in this mess. "So far so good. We might get to Mayriver a lot sooner than expected." Curtis said with a bit of a laugh. The beginning of this trip up to Mayriver had just been so bad, he was finally getting a string of better luck. Hopefully he didn't speak too soon and jynx it or anything. "One can only hope so, traveling is always such a drag." Hacker spoke through his pokemon with it's usual monotone voice. So in summary Curtis continued heading north in the same fashion that he has been doing so far... walking right behind his Porygon who would navigate them through this foggy environment. ------------------------------- Currently in: Unclearable Fog Marsh 1 Landmarks to go: Mist Valley, Sinklands 1, Soggy Hillside, Healthy Field, Mayriver Destination: Mayriver Edited by Curtis, Aug 24 2009, 04:46 PM.

.3 Alright. I've gotten distracted and its nearly time to clock out. So...this will be less that appealing. Back in the wet and the white you went. Plod-plod-squish, went your feet and not another sound did the marshy country side make. That is, until the sharp slap of something flat smacking the standing water rand out sharply about ten feet ahead. Closer inspection would reveal a Bidoof, trying to build something in the mud. The smack was its paws patting down a mound of goop. Lvl 5

.3 Curtis continued on through this foggy mess. He could hear his footsteps splashing through the water, when suddenly a different sound echoed through this place and it sounded awful close. "Hey Hacker... What's that noise?" He stopped walking for a moment as he made an attempt to peer out in front, but this fog wasn't letting him see a damn thing. His Porygon stopped moving, and scanned the area that was directly in front of him. His scan found a Bidoof that was just out in front, a pokemon that was rather weak. "Nothing that should be a bother. Just a Bidoof, wouldn't even be a threat at all." the electronic voice rang out. "No trouble huh...." He guessed that it would be a nice time to try out that Totodile of his. With that in mind he reached down grasping the pokemon's ball and released it out in front of him. Suddenly a little blue crocodile came onto the scene and began splashing around in the mud and the slight amount of water that was on the ground. He picked up the little blue pokemon and walked forward several feet before setting him on the ground again. "Hey there little guy, I'm Curtis your new trainer. I'm gonna need your help to get rid of the hamster thingy out in front of us." He then pulled out his pokedex as he read through some information on it's moveset. Hmmmm. "Hit him with Superpower boy." This would be the Totodile's first battle, and obviously this sort of thing came natural to this creature. It rushed forward towards the unsuspecting rodent with a lot of courage. "Hacker, if Superpower doesn't work... I want you to finish it off with Psybeam." "Understood."

.3 Well! Here was the dorky little beaverling playing in the mud and then comes along a big scary trainer who whips out a little scary blue thing with teeth. The beaver thing shit him self as soon as he realized what was coming. What he couldnt possibly fathom was what the blue thing was about to hit him with. The totodile flexed his muscles and raced toward the fear frozen wild pokeman. A single powerful fist drew back and rocketed toward the bewildered things jaw. CRACK! The brown mud dobber left the ground, the force the fist on bone action sending him flying five feet away where he lay. Af if that wasn't enough, a shimmering beam of energy jettisoned from the porgyon and blasted the poor guy. He didnt move and the croc prodded him with a toe to verify it wasnt getting up again. That was easy! (*pushes the little red button on my desk*) .7 and one * for both gator and porygonEdited by Maverick, Aug 26 2009, 05:54 PM.

.3 "You both did good, proud of you two." he said sending a smile to both of his pokemon. He knelt down for a moment putting his arms out to show the Totodile that he was friendly. "You really showed that Beaver... Hamster... Whatever that thing was." he was giving his praise to the Crocodile. The blue pokemon rushed back over to him jumping up onto him, but instead of giving his trainer a hug or something nice like that, he bit right into his shoulder. " Damn!" he said as he stood up, the reptile hanging off of his shoulder. "Hey Hacker! Why is he biting me!" he asked in a bit of a stressed voice. "That's how they show that their taking a liking to you, it's just their nature." the Porygon explained. "Well, if this is how he's going to be... Better give him a name that makes sense. What do you think of Chomper?" he ha directed this question toward the Totodile that was still hanging off of him. "Dile!" he responded. It had a bit of a positive tone, which was probably a good thing. It released it's grip on his shoulder, and gave a bit of a smile up at him. Though even it's smile looked a bit threatening, with all of it's teeth and all. "Then it's settled. You are Chomper. Now come on guys we gotta keep moving." he said as his Porygon moved out in front like it always did. "Just Follow us Chomper. We wouldn't want you getting lost in here." The little croc was having a wonderful time though, splashing around in the still water that drenched this area's floor, kicking through piles of mud every once in a while. This was the type of environment that it seemed to enjoy. Happiness for Chomper? |

.3 Chomper was delighted with his win and he took a definite liking to his new name ( + 2 ). The little croc hopped right along after you, splashing in the puddles all the way because this was just the sort of environment that Totodiles liked best. Your trio stepped delicately past the fallen beaver thing and sloshed through the muck and fog for nearly an hour without anything happening at all. It was difficult to tell if you were even making progress because everything was white with the fog. After awhile you began to think your eyes were playing tricks on you. You could swear there were shapes shifting in the wall of white. This was when you realized that this wasnt your imagination but actual outlines of scraggly trees, tall wavering cattails, and small scruffy shrubs. The fog was thinning and this could only mean one thing. You were exiting one area and entering another Mist Valley. |

.3 Now it seemed that figures and such were showing themselves through the fog, and Curtis did have to admit... it looked pretty creepy. After a couple seconds, these dark figures in the fog were revealed to what looked like trees. Whew. It was nothing after-all... just the fog starting to clear up, which was totally a good sign! Hoo-rah they were actually making some pretty good progress. "How much longer are we gonna be out in this fog Hack?" He asked his mechanical guide. "By my calculations, and our current rate of speed... It shouldn't be too long." It answered back. "Finally, I hate not being able to see a damned thing." Curtis added, with a bit of an agreeing growl coming from Totodile. This environment was nice to play in, but staying here too long could get on anyone's nerves. Totodile was trudging through the light layer of mud a bit quicker before, hopping out of it on top of the back of Hacker. "Dile!" it exclaimed, licking the little living GPS. It was obviously a sort of Hurry up! kind of thing. --------------------------------- Currently in: Mist Valley Landmarks to go: Sinklands 1, Soggy Hillside, Healthy Field, Mayriver Destination: Mayriver Edited by Curtis, Aug 29 2009, 02:23 PM.

.2 ![]() 'ello poppet. Also: Man, there isn't much around here with a low APL, is there? Anyways. So Curtis was going along, still not really able to see, still following his living GPS, and still getting his shoes wet. Another normal day in Murmur Valley! And there was another normal Pokemon for the valley! A birdy! Birds are everywhere, and this place was no exception. Maybe birds can see better in this fog... naah, prolly not! It seemed to be just as blind as you were, not even noticing you as it bathed in a pool of water on a rock. Or maybe it just didn't care! Who knows! Does it matter? Not really. Either way, look, a birdy! -- ![]() Level 5 15/15 |

.2 sorry about the crappy post. As Curtis continued on through the fog, Hacker stopped moving, not too far away from a semi-large rock that was out in front of them. "There is a Starly out in front." he informed Curtis as he stopped a few feet behind him. He pondered for a moment, wondering if he should just leave it alone.... but then again, Chomper could use the experience. "Chomper, go hit that bit with Aqua Tail." he told the little gator. The blue pokemon hopped from Hacker's backside and moved forward in the fog getting closer to the wild pokemon. "Dile!" it exclaimed, as it lunged forward. It did not want the attack to miss, and he was determined to beat up that little ball of feathers. Curtis and Hacker followed the crocodile closely, as they just sat back and watched. The bird was a bit stronger, but they both figured he could do it on his own. ![]() LV 2 6/6-using Aqua Tail VS ![]() LV 5 15/15-on a rock Edited by Curtis, Aug 30 2009, 06:13 PM.

.2 ![]() The bird blinked and looked up, hearing the awkward little newborn waddle towards him, tail covered in water for the strike. Unlike most trainer's Pokemon, this thing looked a lot weaker then normal. Starly would have wrinkled his nose at the sight, but didn't have a nose to wrinkle. Instead, it was going to show that trainer thing who was boss~ Not many Wild Pokemon were able to do that. Starly suddenly flew at Chomper, like a blur, with wings outstretched. Before the little croc could even get a move off, the bird slammed into him, and bashed the baby with his wings, sending the blue critter to the ground, where he didn't get up. Well, now what? The bird seemed to be saying this as he stared at the pair of you, wings ruffling. -- ![]() LV 2 0/6 VS ![]() LV 5 15/15 *had used Quick Attack + Wing Attack, if you were curious* |

.2 Curtis watched as the bird totally took out the little blue croc. Damned! He seriously thought that it would've worked, but he seemed to be wrong. He reached down for Chomper's pokeball, withdrawing him back into it. He guessed that he should've just left the little bird alone from the start, since he really didn't want to risk Hacker or Snowball. He looked over at the bird with a bit of an ashamed face. He had lost, and there was nothing he could do to change it. "Alright Hack... We should probably get out of here... now." Curtis told his Porygon who started navigating through the fog again. Curtis followed right behind, and hoped that the bird wouldn't follow. Damn he had to remember that not all wild pokemon were push-overs. "I agree." stated Hacker in response to his trainer's comment. And so! Curtis and Hacker disappeared into the fog again, hoping to get to Mayriver some-time soon! --------------------------------- Currently in: Mist Valley Landmarks to go: Sinklands 1, Soggy Hillside, Healthy Field, Mayriver Destination: Mayriver Edited by Curtis, Aug 30 2009, 07:03 PM.

.2 ![]() Luckily, the bird was content with beating up one of your monsters, so when you moved on away from it, it gladly left you alone and went back to its bath. And, suddenly, SPLAT. Up to your knees in mud and water. Guess you made it to more Sinklands, huh?! Lucky you. Don't die! :D |

.1 "Well I'm glad that's fina..." he was interrupted when he was sucked down into a pitfall of mud and water. Well didn't this seem awful familiar... "Hey Hacker! Are we going in circles or something? We were already here." Curtis complained as he continued on behind the Porygon. Truth was that he was beginning to get a completely hatred for this entire region of the world. Murmur Valley was such a crappy place. "No, there is more than one Sinkland." Hacker explained. "Well that just sucks." Curtis complained even more. He was now wading through waist-deep muddy soil. Jesus this stuff sucked. He was moving at a slower pace now, but knew that he'd get out of it eventually. Hacker slowed his pace so that his trainer could followed, since he wasn't restrained by the mud, and could just float right over it. So they were moving, moving, moving forward! --------------------------------- Currently in: Sinklands 1 Landmarks to go: Soggy Hillside, Healthy Field, Mayriver Destination: Mayriver |

.2 ![]() Poor Curtis... not! :D Anywho, yes, this was a familiar place. Luckily, because of the nature, that made it slightly easier to navigate. The handy floating machine mon floated over the pools, and guided its trainer through. Along the way, though, there was a chirping of something flying around through the mist. It didn't look like it cared much about you, but... well, yeah, it was there. If you ignored the bird, though, then the fog continued thinning a little more... and you were rising up out of the valley, on a Soggy Hillside. Yay! -- ![]() Level 5 Full HP *minding its own birdy business* |

.2 Curtis was now making some progress, he'd exited the Sinklands with ease, and even decided to ignore that pesky bird that was flying around. He didn't want anymore trouble here in Murmur Valley. This trip had been troublesome enough, after-all he was still a bit thrown off because he'd lost two of his pokemon in the very beginning of this journey. He and Hacker were now in an area that was basically a hillside, only the hills were made out of some-what solid mud. One good thing was that the fog was thinning out quite a lot, which was a good thing. He was beginning to see a lot better. He and his pokemon guide, began walking up and down the hills as they came across them. They were going as fast as possible, mainly for the hope that this was going to be the end of Murmur Valley. "How much longer is it?" Curtis asked. "Not much farther, we're getting a lot closer to Mayriver finally." Hacker informed his trainer. --------------------------------- Currently in: Soggy Hillside Landmarks to go: Healthy Field, Mayriver Destination: Mayriver |

.2 ![]() Well... alright, you're in traveling mode! Essentially meaning that you're going to ignore everything that gets in your way, short of a Tentacle Monster grabbing you and rap- Er. Not that I have one of those, of course. I mean, I didn't do something like that to a trainer that passed through here before, no. I would never do that. ...but, wait. What was that slimy looking thing that moved under Curtis's foot? Must have been nothing... when he looked, there was nothing there. ...and then behind Curtis, a long, thin, pointy wiggily thing poked up out of the ground. Reaching, reaching for him...! Or not. >: Luckily, nothing else bad happened to them, and they made it to the Healthy Field. No more fog yay! |
