"So what's it look like again? A little candle?" Delta hovered next to Penny as the party of pokemon only stepped out onto the poisoned plain. Well, to be fair Delta and Falcon weren't touching the ground. Falcon was staring at the dirt like he would rather flap his wings forever then land anywhere near this putrid place. Calamity didn't seem to care, bouncing from foot to foot and being more concerned with looking around. They were looking for a fire-thing and she was supposed to fight it. Which didn't exactly make her nervous, but she wanted to be cautious.

"Why is the ground purple?"

Delta blinked, having not recognized the voice, and turned to look at Falcon. The giant bird was staring at her, waiting for an answer.

"The humans poisoned it," Calamity said, kicking at a clod of dirt and watching it break apart, "Not our humans or anything, but bad humans. Some pokemon still like it here, though."

Delta bobbed her head, pleased that Falcon had finally said something. The glittering blue bird hadn't said a word the whole way here, which worried her. She didn't want Aloid to have made him mute or something silly like that. She would get the bird to calm down!

"I guess we'll just move along the ravine here and see if we can find something? Falcon, we're looking for a cute little candle."

The braviary nodded, and took wing higher into the sky. He had predator's eyesight for a reason.



Ravine, moving towards Poisoned Plain 1/Dried Riverbed? Basically just moving north through the Ravine.

Looking for a male litwick. With a mild case of Amnesia.

The Metagross cavalry was back. Penny had taken one look at the toxic wasteland, and decided that she would be having none of that. So she was currently sat atop Enigma, who hovered at a safe distance above the plain. No need to get messy.

Um, yes. She said to Delta. It's like a candle, but its flame is purple, not yellow. Which, now that she thought about it, wouldn't make it easy to spot when everything around them was also purple. But it's still a white candle. Just a purple flame.

Litwick is a ghost, as well as a fire pokémon. Enigma added helpfully. Some of Falcon's preferred attacks will not be effective.

So Falcon took off with that piece of advice in mind, looking for a white candle thing with a purple flame. Such creatures weren't especially rare around these parts, but they wouldn't be easy to spot, even for a Braviary. Which meant that the bird of prey would likely need at least a few minutes to find one of the little blighters.

Meanwhile, everyone on the ground started combing the ravine for anything interesting. For a while, there was nothing much of interest. Then Penny spotted some movement off to her side.

"I think there's something over there." She gestured over to a purple blob that was shuffling towards them. It soon revealed itself to be a Croagunk, one of the indigenous battletoads to the region. Hey, didn't Alex have one of those on the ranch? It eyed the group warily, especially Enigma. Foreign pokémon were never good news.

Falcon was content to fly and search under his own power, not caring if he wouldn't be very good against the pokemon they were looking for. It felt nice to be out here because he felt free again. Also, Aloid wasn't threatening to puree his liver.

And then Delta was content to let him fly around as he wanted, as long as he was keeping an eye out. The rest of them stayed near the ground, kind of close to each other as they searched the terrain. Calamity hopped on top of rocks when there were rocks to hop on top of, and Delta swooped through the air merrily.

"Hm?" Delta swiveled her head around to look, blinking at the toad. Not a candle! "Oh, yep. But he's not doing anything wrong. Hiiiii~" Delta waved, being friendly, but then turned to keep looking. Battletoads were great and everything, but this one didn't look too happy they were there. So Delta was just fine with leaving it alone, if it wanted to be left alone. They were too busy combing the area for a candle!



Ravine. Male litwick.

The Croagunk tentatively raised a hand in greeting, still not sure why there were a bunch of strange pokémon walking around the ravine. Such pokémon were usually accompanied by humans wanting to beat them up and capture them, but there were no people in sight. Very curious. The battletoad decided not to question their non-hostility, and continued on his merry way.

Up above them, Falcon was using his much better view of the area to his advantage. After a few minutes of sweeping passes up and down the ravine, his keen vision picked up on a glimmer of white up ahead of the rest of the gang. Upon further inspection, it looked like one of those candle things that they were looking for. Excellent. He could either report back or try and take it on himself, although since Penny was carrying all the pokéballs, reporting back was probably the best option.

Falcon squinted when he saw a bit of white, and dipped a bit lower to see better. Little white thing on fire? Check. He debated divebombing it on his own, but quickly decided that this really wasn't his problem. He swooped around back to the others.

Delta looked up to see the big bird swoop towards them, and circle her head, "Found one."

"Yay! Where?"

They followed the blue bird to the candle, and Delta debated from a distance for a moment, "We could try to befriend him. He looks a little dazed and confused..."

"Too slow," Calamity suddenly rushed past them, spores fluttering from her mushroom cap. Delta sighed and shook her head, wings snapping open wide and powering her after. So much for being peaceful.

"You people are efficient, if nothing else," Falcon commented, coming in to land on Enigma. He kind of fluttered with uncertainty for a moment before gripping onto a leg half sideways to watch. He remembered the balls from before, and turned to ask Penny for one before flapping over and lobbing it at the thing. He felt kind of weird helping with this, but this purple place kind of hurt his lungs and eyes.



Delta the level 60 (Full HP) dragonite (w/multiscale) is using thunder wave and then wing attack. Calamity the level 62 (Full HP) breloom (w/technician) is using spore and then false swipe. Then Falcon is dropping an ultra ball on it if that doesn't faint it. Curse my lack of a calc on this computer. But if that does faint it, then a phoenix ball. idk man

Force was the order of the day, then. Being a living candle, Litwick wasn't really built for speed, so it couldn't react fast enough to avoid first the debilitating static charge from Delta, or the spores flying forth from Calamity. Those attacks combined to leave the poor little candle immobilised and asleep on the ravine floor.

Delta followed up with a stiffened wing strike, which surprisingly did not immediately KO the Litwick, even given her impressive physical strength. Then Calamity tried a False Swipe, only to have it pass straight through the Litwick's body as if it wasn't even there.

Litwick is a ghost. Enigma explained, adjusting his leg slightly to allow Falcon to land more easily. It is unaffected by moves like that.

No matter. Penny lifted an Ultra Ball from her pouch and handed it to Falcon, who sort of lobbed it over at the Litwick with a clawed foot. As it turned out, ghost candles were quite easy to capture. They didn't need the Ultra Ball, really. They probably didn't even need the sleep or paralysis.

The ding signified a successful end to the battle, and the Litwick was promptly transported over to the ranch, where Guru was on hand to welcome it to its new home. Not that it was going to be best pleased by this. Let's just say it was a good thing that the psychic could heal himself.

Penny looked around at the rest of the group. "Is everyone okay? Were you guys looking for anything else out here, or shall we get back to the ranch?"

~~~~~

Litwick is caught at 50/174 HP. It comes with 15 :anger .

Delta and Calamity each gain 0.3 :exp .

Force was easier and faster! Even if I manage to forget basic game mechanics, durr.

"Totally knew that," Calamity hopped away from the candle, getting over her surprise at passing through it. Delta looked up at Falcon fluttering above them, having dropped the ball on the candle's head. The ball disappeared, and the bird did his own equivelant of a shrug.

"No, that was it," Delta fluttered by Penny and Enigma, "I'm ready to fly back if you are, Falcon.

"It's hard to breathe here," the giant bird said, hovering with them as well. Delta fluttered her wings as Calamity jumped up to grip onto her tail and climb up onto the dragon's shoulders.

"Guess we'll see you guys in Hillmoss!" Delta chirped, waving to Enigma and Penny and shooting off towards the little town.



If you wanna post in Hillmoss with a timeskip for the people or something, then that's fine. I won't have time to post again until tonight/tomorrow depending on how I'm feeling after driving home. Steely's in no hurry to go anywhere, but idk how much Alex wants to go demolish a gym. But yeah I can make a new thread later, or you can if you have time/feel like it.

FLY-ing back to Hillmoss.
