Upon entering the town, his feet upon the pavement and the various scents entering his nostrils, he let a smile glide across his lips. The Charmander at his feet clutched at his trainer's pant leg as the two walked on, the lizard looking about curiously before charging down an alleyway, randomly having seen something. "Nero...?" He blinked as he felt the sudden lack of tugging on his pant leg then turned just in time to see a glowing, fiery tail disappear around a dark alley's corner. His eyes widened and he charged forward, his athletic frame built for such action, and when he rounded the corner, he saw nothing but Nero, standing there chewing on a fast food wrapper. A frown creased his lips as he reached down to tug the wrapper from the lizard's mouth, though Charmander gave him a playful growl before letting go of it. "Don't run off like that, Nero. I was worried." He said with a sigh, placing a hand atop the Pokemon's head and standing up straight, crumpling up the wrapper and tossing it into a garbage can.

"C'mon, let's go find something to eat. I'm sure there's somewhere relatively cheap we can go. I dunno if there's any Pokemon in the city, but if we find them, we could easily defeat them, I'm sure." Clint said with a smile, picking the Charmander up by his waist and blinking, "You're getting pretty heavy, buddy. You've grown pretty big in the short time we've been together." The Charmander looked up at him innocently, a small growl coming from the little lizard's stomach as he chuckled softly. "Alright...well, until we find somewhere to eat, here." He dug into his pocket, pulling out the orange-like fruit that had been given to him earlier. Nero held it between his paws, sniffing it before tearing into it almost instantly, soft chomping sounds heard from his mouth as he looked around while being carried, his tail hanging down and away from Clint.

The man had been hoping that he would find a Pokemon worth catching on his way to Rose Town, but he had only seen two this entire time. One of which belonged to a trainer, while the one before that had been utterly destroyed by Charmander's powerful flame. He was determined to see Nero reach his limit, but in the best way for him possible. To fight another pokemon until the two were locked in a struggle that would make Clint want to catch the other pokemon. Though, he would have liked to catch a Phanpy, after seeing Turk in action, but unfortunately, that had belonged to Doyle. He would need to find a different pokemon that was worthy to be on his fighting force. One that would be loyal and have a powerful arsenal under its grasp.

By looking at the place, he could see a large forest bordering the town, and a wall surrounding the outskirts of the forest, as though this town was a gateway to the woods beyond. He wondered why this was...but he wasn't wondering for very long as he came to a bench, sitting down upon it slowly and setting down Nero beside him, who was still happily crunching away at the Oran berry before finishing it off with a final big bite. The lizard purred slightly and leaned back against the bench, his tail hanging over the front of it, the flame flickering brilliantly in the light. "Hm...what do you think would be a good companion, Nero...?" He asked quizzically, just to see the Charmander's initial response. The fire type blinked up at him, "Char...?" As if to say "I don't know." With a nod, Clint turned his attention on the crowd, scratching the back of his head slightly. "I wonder..." He mumbled to himself, deep blue eyes narrowing slightly in thought.

For Clint McHale, his next chance at examining a Pok�mon or two for his party was about to come up. It was going to be a particularly educational experience, in fact, as there were going to be all kinds of new and interesting Pok�mon for him to examine and consider for his party.

The situation in itself was actually rather simple. As Clint and Nero headed towards the Forest of Fury and took their small break, the sound of a high-pitched scream coming from the direction of the Forest could be heard, and a quick investigation in that direction would reveal the source of this strange occurrence! It wasn't anything overly strenuous, plus investigating had put you really close to the entrance to the Forest of Fury.

Up on the wall of a building was being held a Zubat, which was ensconced within a cocoon of web, almost; it had been trapped very clearly by String Shot that was pinning its wings to the bricks and rendering it unable to free itself from its captor. Said captor was now crawling along the wall slowly, tapping its spindly legs across the brickwork as it crawled towards the Zubat, mandibles clicking hungrily. It was a Spinarak.

Evidently, the Zubat there was about to become lunch, and the Spinarak seemed hungry thanks to the presence of Pok�RUS. He was angered, he was annoyed; this thing had tried to steal its trinkets and now it was going to become food. Thankfully it wasn't a human up there, but damn. Clint therefore had two choices; one, head right into the Forest of Fury, or two, intervene in the situation in any way he deemed fit.

(Ugh. Crap post.)

Clint blinked slightly as he heard the shriek and turned his head in the direction, and as he reached the source of the shriek he was quite surprised to see a large spider about to eat a bat-like creature. His eyes widened slightly and he bit his lower lip, quickly pulling out his pokedex to scan them both, learning that one was Spinarak and the other was Zubat. It was really all he had time for as Nero took a couple steps forward, all ready for battle. "Nero, use Slash to knock that Spinarak away, and then use your claws to try and cut through the cocoon of webbing. Let's see if we can "recruit" these two Pokemon!" Clint said with a smile, crossing his arms over his chest and tilting his head slightly as he watched the Charmander begin its operations.

The spider didn't see what was coming, though she heard human mouth-sounds somewhere Down There, there were always human mouth-sounds echoing around the city like so many bats. And those weren't even edible bats. At the moment, she was too concerned with liquefying this bat's innards and sucking them out through a straw to notice the Charmander leaping up behind her--

--but she certainly did notice when claws raked across the top of her thorax and knocked her clean off of the wall with the force of the blow. With a shrill cry, the spiderlike Pokemon hit the dirt, flailing her legs around like an overturned beetle.

When the Spinarak had recovered from this indignity, she flipped herself over, and glared at the Charmander responsible. The fiery lizard was able to free one of the Zubat's wings before being transfixed with the Spinarak's gaze and falling backwards over himself.

The spider hissed, and opened her mandibles to spit poisonous white needles at this new attacker.

The beleaguered Zubat, however, wasn't precisely calm all this while. Oh no.

For all he knew, the Charmander wanted a piece of his face too!

The flailing bat's shrieks became increasingly high pitched, shrill, and disorienting--and he wasn't too keen on aiming. The sound waves bounced off of the walls, playing havoc the inner ear of Charmander, Spinarak (or what passed for spider ears) and trainer alike.

Though admittedly, humans didn't have very sensitive ears to begin with and Clint just ended up slightly disoriented instead of wondering why the ground was in the sky.

As he heard the high pitched screech, his eyes jerked from side to side in a rather confused manner, becoming disoriented and dizzy for a second. His hands came up to clasp over his ears and he looked to the bat, who seemed to be confused as to which side Clint was on. "Ahh...Z-Zubat! I'm here to help you! Please, don't attack!" He called out, trying to communicate with the Pokemon, though he wasn't quite sure exactly how much good it might do. Though, it was a bat, and from his experience, they were supposed to have good ears. Nero, on the other hand, didn't seem in too good of shape himself as he was attacked by the Spinarak.

The lizard wobbled from side to side, his eyes made a dizzying movement from one side to the other, as though he was unsure of what was going on. The sky was spinning, the buildings looked warped, and the spider he was facing looked a little odd. The Charmander opened his mouth as fire licked at his scaly lips and it leaped forward in a steady stream in the direction of the spider, though whether it would hit or if he even used it correctly was entirely up to chance. "Nero...? What are you doing?! You need to snap out of it!" He called out as the Pokemon used an attack without his direction. Obviously the lizard was confused and far more disoriented than Clint had been by the high pitched screech of the Zubat.

The Zubat really wasn't wasting any time with dealing with the two Pokemon, concerned only for not being someone else's lunch. However, it didn't fly away to escape, keeping within the general vicinity but well out of reach for attacks should the Charmander try something tricky or the Spinarak making another attempt at a meal. Speaking of which, the two were still at it despite the constantly-shifting orientation of their worlds. The Spinarak tried a Scary Face, though in order for that to work, your opponent had to actually see it. Charmander was just too busy burning fire willy-nilly, while Spinarak did the same. Attacks hit their respective targets, indirect hits rather than full-on blows.

The Charmander's eyes were still unfocused and he felt the attack graze him, causing him to growl furiously. Nero was infected with the pokeRUS, and therefore made him far more irritable, especially when being attacked by a Pokemon that wasn't hitting him completely. Granted, anger would have flowed much more freely through him, had the Spinarak hit him head on. Either way, the pokeRUS mixed with the confusion wasn't a good combination, and it only served to anger the lizard further. Clint's eyes widened as he saw Nero's mouth open once more, eyes seeming to teem with anger as flames once more licked at the Pokemon's scaly lips.

Nero charged forward, claws extended into the air as he would attempt a Slash at the Spinarak, followed by a Flamethrower at close range. Clint could only watch as the pokemon he had originally thought as caring and playful...was now reduced to an angry lizard that craved the death of his enemy. "Nero...you have to stop this! Settle down before you hurt yourself or burn one of the buildings!" The man called out, gritting his teeth as he slid a finger over the smooth surface of Nero's pokeball. Any moment, he was going to call the lizard back and the battle would either be won...or he would need to get out of here. Either way, he couldn't stand seeing his friend in such a state.

The makeshift battlefield had become a mass of confusion. Sparks of ember still played about the ground while leftover remains of the Spinarak's webbing caught on fire and trailed small lines of flame in every direction. This, coupled with a Pokerus-infected lizard and a screeching Zubat, created a scene that effectively cleared out anyone in the immediate vicinity. A few local kids did stick around to watch, however. Nothing this cool ever happened right on their doorstep.

Utterly blinded by the infection coursing through his body, Nero vaguely heard his trainer's plea and and simply rushed forward, determined to end what in his mind was the source of his inward fury: the Spinarak. Which, at least in part, it was. The spider planted its pincers carefully into the concrete, watching the Charmander carefully as it raced head-on, gleaming claws raised high. If it was to go down, it didn't plan on going down so passively. That crazed lizard would have something to remember it by. Nobody stole this spider's meal away and got away with it!

Lifting its chin, the Spinarak spat out a large gob of string that unfurled into a web and sailed straight for Nero. Already lost in his own blood lust, the Charmander had little room to dodge when the web engulfed him, closing around his body and tripping him up. His balance lost, Nero crashed to the ground, his entire frame caught up in the sticky trap. A purple aura enveloped him following this, lifting his body up in the air and promptly hurling it into the nearest wall. It was quite a lethal combination of Spider Web and Psychic, considering the Spinarak had been confused the entire time as well. Somehow, it had managed to momentarily break through.

Slumped against the ground, Nero struggled vainly against his bondage as the Spinarak crawled over, emitting a clicking noise that sounded somewhat like mocking laughter. The spider stood there for a few seconds, enjoying his momentary triumph... that is, until Nero figured out that he he could attack without breaking his hold. Spinarak figured out what was happening as soon as the Charmander widened its mouth, but by that point it was too late. A torrent of flame burst forth, dissolving the flimsy web and engulfing the spider, charring it to a crisp. Seconds later, it had keeled over, blackened and burned. Roasted spider, anyone? The Zubat watched from its perch, flapping its wings in celebration of the spider's defeat.

Clint sighed with relief as he saw the spider go down in a burst of flames and simply keel over and begin twitching slightly. The small, eight-legged creature sizzled and smoked from the fire and Nero looked around, still in a daze. "Nero...come back. You did a good job." The man said, pulling the Charmander's pokeball from his belt and pointing it at the lizard with a press of the button. A lasso of energy shot out, taking hold of the Charmander and turning him into energy. Soon, the pokemon was sucked into the sphere and Clint smiled down at it, a soft sigh of relief washing over him. The hero placed the pokeball back onto his belt and turned his gaze toward the bat, who seemed to be celebrating the defeat of the Spinarak.

"So, Zubat..." Clint began, smiling warmly up at the creature. She was a bat, so naturally she could hear him as he spoke in a regular tone. "I was wondering if I might be able to recruit you onto my team. I will be able to offer you protection, as you have just seen, as well as friendship. Nero and myself are quite a friendly pair and we'll take extra care of you." The human kept smiling, wanting Zubat to know that he meant what he said, to know that he was a friendly man and would happily take care of any comrade that came into his custody. He reached for a pokeball on his belt, pressing the button once so that it would expand to the size of a baseball before he held it up in his palm. "If you'd like to join me, please feel free to come into this pokeball. In my care, you will become powerful indeed."

The zubat listened intently to the offer, and was grateful that Clint spoke in a soft tone. All these people thinking he was deaf! Grinning his double fangs jaws, the zubat removed the final webbing clinging to his wings and fluttered off into the sky. The pokemon appeared to disappear from Clint, fleeing the scene of his near-death and knightly rescue, the zubat vanished from sight, even the sound of his clumsily flapping wings could not be heard.

Well, can't win them all, can you? Clint, likely deflated by this development, probably began to move onwards towards his next destination, wherever that may have been. Eventually, the sound of flapping returned to the area, turning, one might see a bat-shaped object carrying a flag of sorts. Clumsy before carrying his load, the bat eventually crashed landed, saving itself from any injury by using his picture as a makeshift sled.

Sliding passed, the zubat stopped thanks to friction and looked up at his hero, grinning largely, picking up his soiled picture and flying up with it, hovering as best he could, showing Clint his picture. It looked slightly shiny, maybe a bit like wax paper or the kind you might find in magazines. Probably, the zubat ripped the picture off someone's beloved book cover, but it seemed very dear to him.

The picture was of a cookie. Did he want a cookie? Or did he want to show his champion his prized possession? Up to Clint to decide, really. Rolling up his picture, the zubat immediately found himself to the pokeball, poking the circular part as he had seen some of his neighbors do, and he was within the confines of the pokeball - it was cozy.

_________________________________

He blinked as the Zubat flew away, feeling a little disheartened. He thought for sure that the creature might join him, but now he was a little confused as to how this world might work. Perhaps doing good on this planet didn't come with rewards? Then, he heard the flapping of wings once again and he moved a hand to Nero's pokeball, only to see the Zubat coming right at him and then crash into the ground. Clint tilted his head slightly and curiously as the Zubat brought up a picture...a picture of a cookie. "You...want one of those?" Clint asked before the pokemon disappeared inside of the empty pokeball in his hand and he smiled softly.

The man clipped the sphere to his belt and walked to the Pokemon Center. He'd read on the Poketech that they were the places people took their Pokemon when they needed to be healed. And Nero desperately needed it. As soon as he entered the facility he blinked softly and looked around, squinting slightly from the fluorescent lights, a quiet sigh passing his lips. Across the room stood a woman with red hair in a nurse's uniform and he walked over, smiling at her, "Hello there. My name's Clint. I was...wondering how much it'd cost to get my pokemon healed?" The woman gave him an odd stare and shook her head, "No, it's free, Clint." She said in a sweet tone. The man felt foolish, turning his head away with a slight blush and sighing. "Oh...uh...alright then."

The nurse placed a tray before him and explained that he only needed to place his pokeballs on the tray and she would heal them in a matter of seconds. Clint brought both pokeballs up and placed them within the smooth orb-shaped holders in the tray and she took it, placing them upon a machine. A small tune rang out and she brought the spheres back to him moments later. "There you are~ Good as new." She said with a smile. The man picked up the pokeballs, placing them back on his belt and looking at the nurse curiously, "Say...I was wondering. Why exactly is the forest surrounded by walls and this city seems to be the gate? Is there something wrong with the forest?" He asked, curiosity getting the best of him.
