An Unusual Detour; RocketRob-Robert

Bulbasaur
Of all the places the explorer Robert Nemoine figured he'd end up at, the Pokemon League Stadium was not even a thought in his mind. In fact the first thing he wanted to do when he received that invite was to forget it ever existed. He would of too, had it not been for Bulbasaur, she was very adamant about wanting to come here to compete....

"We never have gotten the chance to battle a live person! That would be so exciting!!" The words were still very fresh in his head, and after more of the same from the rest of his team he reluctantly came out to this place. It was more than just his dislike of battling, he wasn't very good at being around people in general.

And there was a lot of people at the stadium on this day, hundreds and hundreds of men and women were gathering to watch this grand tournament. It was a spectacle, vendors everywhere, there was even the occasional amusement park ride. Robert just shook his head, he couldn't grasp his mind around why this was such a party. He didn't see how anyone could be this in to battling. For Robert just being called a Pokemon Trainer was an insult to him. But he got over it, he wasn't here to convince people that what they were doing was wrong.

After several more minutes of walking he finally reached the entrance to the main stadium. Grabbing the card around his neck, he looked at the giant board in front of him. It was flashing two numbers, one of which was his,

"Must be my turn....great....hopefully this doesn't take to long....I have more nature to see."

The explorer walked in through hallway leading to the stadium grounds....once he could see it he realized that this was much bigger of an event then he anticipated. It seemed like there was millions of people in the stands surrounded the small battlefield.

He quickly took his spot, he wanted this to be over quickly, he wouldn't wait long for an opponent to show up...

Whether Robert understood it or not, the idea of seeing their favourite Pro Trainers in action was irresitable to most, and the stadium could hold a near-infinite amount of people. The sounds of the crowd and the bright lights could easily overwhelm those unused to such attention, as if the stadium would swallow them whole.

"Ladies and Gentlemen," came the booming voice of the announcer, "The next to challenge the Pros is a newcomer to competitive battling. From Hillmoss, please welcome Robert Nemoine!"

The audience applauded, but the real cheering came at the next words. "And now, his opponent. Recently turned pro, this woman descends from one of Escennia's noble families. Allow me to introduce the winner of the recent Bloodaisy Brawl, the elegant Lady Isabella!"

A woman strolled her way to the spot opposite Robert, clothed in a simple blue turtleneck and long skirt of a paler shade. It would difficult to imagine her in some kind of extravagant Victorian dress, as she had the look of an intellectual, with her jet black hair hanging straight down and staring with fierce blue eyes from behind round glasses at the rookie she was to battle. Nonetheless, her every move excluded grace, and the look in her hawk-like eyes showed the typical superiority of an Escennian.

Isabella released her two pokemon with a flick of her wrist, two simple red-and-white spheres opening to reveal a sleek red fox and a small acorn. "Duchess, Knight, time to battle."

The Vulpix let out a haunting howl, her dark, sorrowful eyes focusing on Robert. The Seedot took on a protective stance next to her, glaring at the man who dared challenge his darling trainer.

"The challenger may now choose his pokemon for the match," came the announcer's voice again, "And he may call the first commands."

"Guess it can't be helped.....these people are obsessed with this..."

The stadium couldn't have possibly been louder right at the moment, and it annoyed the young explorer to no end, but the women that stood across from him annoyed him even more.

Robert looked over at the what they called a pro.......he wasn't impressed. She moved with such arrogance, as if she gave no regard to anything, if he was going to have to participate in these games then he at least was going to show this women a thing or two. He grabbed two Pokeballs off of his belt threw them up, revealing his Bulbasaur and Sentret, who looked more than ready to get at it.

There was a moment of silence as the four Pokemon stared at each other, both trainers calculating their strategies. It didn't take long for Robert to figure out his, and per tournament rules he called out his attacks first.....

"Fine woman! If I'm going to participate in this farce then the least I can do is take you down a couple notches. Sentret! Use your Sucker Punch to get in close to that Vulpix and blast it with a Hyper Sound close range! Bulbasaur, use your Vine Whip to reel that little seed thing in and shower it with Sleep Powder. Don't let me down! Consider this training for when we get back to our journey!"

Robert had a wicked smirk on his face, he was going to embarrass this woman, she rubbed him the wrong way more than anyone else he had met on this journey.

Isabella was not threatened by Robert's expression or words. In fact, she may have laughed, but she didn't really look like someone who could. Instead, her gaze became openly predatory as she locked eyes on his; in an instant, her demeanor seemed to change from arrogant to almost sociopathic, the kind of look that made you wonder if they were imagining wearing your skin as a coat. The attack on her earned no response, the only words she had for him being, "A farce is this?" with every syllable coated with venom.

Then, her eyes, and words, were only for the battle. "Duchess, confuse that Sentret and set up a Safeguard. Knight, prepare yourself with Harden and Growth."

Sentret was crouched, ready to dart forward and sock Duchess in the face the moment she moved to attack. Instead, the Vulpix hiccuped a few bright lights that smacked the normal type between the eyes. She wobbled in place, snatching at colours only she could see, and seemed sufficiently out of it for Isabella's wishes.

Bulbasaur threw out her vines to ensnare Knight, the fellow grass type giving a small wince of pain as he was reeled in, but offered no resistance. With one of Duchess' mournful howls, a shimmering shield surrounded the both of them. Knight just allowed his shell to harden, confident in his strength and the strength of Duchess' Safeguard to protect him.

Her prey fully in her grasp, Bulbasaur blew a stream of sleep-inducing spores all over the Seedot, but Knight showed no sign of falling asleep, and she dropped him surprise as he started to grow larger. Knight's eyes narrowed; he was ready to fight for his lady.

And Sentret? Rather than trying to at least complete the second part of her orders, she jumped forward in pursuit of the imaginary lights and belly-flopped onto the ground with a ker-smack sound. Definately out of it.

Isabella was still watching the battle, all but deaf to Robert. She had effectively disrupted your tactics, but there was no sign of celebration. She still simply had that cold, hawk-like expression. Presumably, there would only be celebration when she won.

Through gritted teeth Robert let out a few curses, this women was as good as her pro status signified. Not only had her Pokemon not suffered any damage but they now were stronger than before, but he had also failed to inflict any damage whatsoever. It became clear that direct attacks would have little to no effect, he was going to have use some trickery to overcome this foe.

He looked around the battlefield, with his Sentret currently laying face down on the ground without any idea where she was at most likely. Bulbasaur was also square with a Seedot that could probably cause some real damage to her. Within a minute or so, a idea came to him, but it was going to be risky if Sentret couldn't pull it off.

"Sentret! If you can hear this you only have one objective right now! Don't move at all just fire a Hyper Voice into the ground and try to kick up some dust. After that if you can manage then use Hyper Voice again to try to hit the fox!"

It was a gamble on his part, hopefully Sentret could at least obey the first command. But he knew that trusty Bulbasaur would be able to pull off her part,

"As for you Bulbasaur, use the dust as a shroud and fire off a Leech Seed at the fox. At the least that'll keep this battle prolonged. Once you've accomplished this use Razor Leaf to take that seed thing down a couple notches."

Now the young explorer could only watch and hope, this woman would surely have a trick or two up her sleeve, but for his sake he hoped his plan would at least throw her off guard.....

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

Still glowering heatedly, Isabella pointed at the bulbasaur, but spoke to her fox kit. "She's next, Duchess. Burn the weed. My dear Knight, keep nurturing yourself with growth - for now." She smiled meanly.

Like a shot the fox was leaping across the field. Duchess could easily run circles around the others if she'd wanted. She'd didn't want that though. Not yet. Right now bringing down a wall of flames upon Bulbasaur was all that mattered. Spewing liquid heat into the surprised plant's face, the smell of charring wood and burned leaves in fall filled the arena. The plant type shrunk away and rolled in the dust, but the damage was done. A searing burn covered her chest and shoulders, severely hampering her movement.

However, with the fox this close it was hard not to strike back in return, seeding the kit's fur with the itchy bothersome leech seeds which she promptly drew upon. It wasn't the most ideal arrangement, but while the burn continued to sap her strength, the leach seed would help counterbalance the damage. And while her partner was ocupied, Sentret struggled with the muddled thoughts within her mind. Where was she again? The befuddle pokemon tripped over her tail and fell flat on her face in the dirt. Damn that smarts! The fall served to clear her thoughts though, and she shrieked like a banshee at the blasted fox.

Duchess yelped and rolled aside. Then with teeth bared she looked to her trainer for the word. Isabella gave a nod and the kit was off. Yipping a battle cry, the fox bashed into the sentret, her tackle powered with the need for revenge. Then she gave a sharp yelp and cocked a leg to her ear and started digging like mad. Darn those seeds were itchy!

She didn't even noticed that the confused sentret was down for the count. Isabella did and she was grinning victoriously already. "Bide your time now Knight." She watched and waited.

Bulbasuar turned her attention away from the scratching fox and hurled a whirlwind of razor leaves at the solemn acorn thing. Knight's growth tactic had served it well. The sharp stinging leaves hardly laid a scratch on his woody surface. He just rocked back and forth patiently waiting for the next move.
