Arriving in Xato

[goldmoonwizard]

Sean saw a town with a river, it seemed to be large so he indicated for his Altaria to land there "Set down on the bank Puff" He said as the cloudlike pokemon touched ground, and he and Presta stepped off. "You can rest now" He said as the pokemon went into it's ball with a flash of light, and he brought out Slash "Slash, I want you and Presta to have a practice battle, I don't know what types the leader uses of this town, but judging by the river I'll guess water, so I want you two ready" He told the Scizor, who nodded and started hovering getting ready to fight the Gardevoir who also stood at ready

[PS -I'm RPing my charrie Max if you wanna look 'em up. Just click his name there.]

He came here itching for a battle from the Gym Leader only to be humming at the edge of Crystal River, walking along it's edge. Chatter sat perched on his head, covering his head with his feathers as he hummed along with his "watcher." Still the Pokemon was with him. On the up side, Nine was back with him, Walking on his left side as she ocassinaly dipped her head, sniffing the water. Flame stayed on the other side, looking around caustiously at the woods that lay on the other side of them. He was always the catious one, Max always knew. Like his body gaurd or something. Nine was usualy that way, ever since the Taurous stampede when he was only a little boy. Though he seemed more calm about that now more than ever, him having more Pokemon. And mainly larger ones at that. What luck, eh?

Bam!

[/i]

Max practicaly gasped as he paused, hearing a loud noise. What it just him, or did he really hear that? Must've not been, as Nine instantly went into a gaurding postion, growling in a second's time, all of her nine tails waving. Flame as well stopped, though he only blinked at the situation. Was there a battle going on and him not knowing it? Of course, there were plenty he knew about without knowing about it. But hey, this one seemed closer than normal.

"You hear that, Chatter?" he asked the small Bird-Type Pokemon, trying to look up at him. Though he hade no luck.

"Hear it! Hear it! Did I hear it!" the bird mocked, quickly flapping his wings and taking off ahead, as if wanting to see what it was before anyone else did.

"C'mon!" he said to his other Pokemon quickly as he put one hand on his hat, racing forward.

"Phloshun!" Flame cried as Nine took off after his trainer, quick to follow and see what the problem was. Though, all three of them had a guess that Chatter had already made it there before they did.

He always did, din't he?

[PPS: I hope you don't feel like I'm skipping ahead with the "bang" thing, Technically that was for you. =P]

(It's fine, I'm not sure what moves I have that could make that loud of a sound, but I'll go with it)

Sean was watching with excitement as his two pokemon fought it out. The loud noise that Max had heard was Slash's Hyper Beam getting sent back by a Mirror Coat from Presta, which left a hurting Scizor on the ground. "Well done Presta, now Slash, try an Extremespeed, Mirror Coat doesn't work on Physical moves, and I didn't teach her Counter" He said encouraging his Scizor, know he was confident that Presta could keep any opponent at a distance so Mirror Coat was the only defensive maneuver needed.

Sean saw a Chatot come down the stream, wondering where it was coming from Sean looked further down and saw a trainer with a few fire types "Now there's a good fight, we'll finish up here and then I'll have a fight with that guy"

He then turned back to his Pokemon in time to see Presta shove a Shadow Ball into Slash as the Scizor used an X-Scizzor on Presta

"Hey!"

Max was practicaly out of breath as he called to the other boy, slowing down near by. Flame and Nine paused on either side of him, Flame lowering his head with a small protective growl. He had never liked other trainers and Pokemon being around his trainer, though Max never knew why. Maybe because they mainly traveled alone during their time in Jhoto. Though Max only ignored it, Chatter perching on a nearby tree, his head cocked as he watched the other two Pokemon battle. Nine's tials were waving as she watched as well, her ears swiviling.

"Hey, was that you?" Max was fianlly able to ask, his chest still puffing. "I heard a loud boom, and my Chatot kinda led me over here."

"You followed! You followed!" Chatter squaked, hobbling side to side on the branch now.

[goldmoonwizard]

Sean laughed at the Chatot "Yes that was me, training to fight the gym leader of this town. Would you like to train with me?" He asked as he returned the tired Scizor and Presta glid over to his side, right where she belonged. "I see you train fire type pokemon, they have their uses" He added with a smirk.

[Kçℵ]

"Sure!" Max instantly agreed to the battle, quickly reaching for a Pokeball on his belt. "And trust me, I don't always use Fire-Types. These two just pretty much baby sit me."

"Phloshun!" Flame said instantly, swiveling his small ears as he looked angrily at his trainer. Max giggled a little.

"An' why not have a double battle, too?" he couldn't help but ask. "I hear those are always challenging."

[goldmoonwizard]

"Sounds good to me" Sean said laughing at the Typhloshun that was with Max. "Presta, you rest for a little bit, you'll be fighting the gym leader. So let's use Pheonix and Charlotta" He said he threw the two pokeballs containing his Roserade and Blaziken "You two will do very nicely" "Blaziken" "Rade!" The two pokemon said enthusiastically getting ready for a fight. As was Sean.

[Kçℵ]

Max chuckled at the two Pokemon the other kid had chosen. This was going to be very entertaining, he knew it. He quickly unlatched the Pokeball from his belt with a small smile.

"Alrighty, then," he said, "Let's go, Dusk!"

"Dusknoir!" the Ghost Pokemon called as the redness jolted away, both hands practically levitating. Max turned his head to his Typhloshin and nodded instantly. The Pokemon nodded in return and stepped forward, Max looking back towards the opposing trainer.

"Phloshun!" Flame said, lighting a fire on it's back.

"You can start," Max told Sean with a nod. Both Dusk and Flame got into a readied position when they heard their trainer's words.

[goldmoonwizard]

Sean looked at his opponents. "Okay, Phoenix Mach Punch at the Typhloshun. Charlotta, Magical Leaf on the Dusknoir, then be prepared for retaliation" The Blaziken shot forward at incredible speeds with it's fist in front, practically on fire as Charlotta spun around throwing leaves straight at the ghost type Pokemon

[Kçℵ]

"Dusk, Phsycic!" Max was quick to order. "Stop the leaves and turn then back towards the Roserade." The Pokemon gave a nod to it's trainer before raising his hands, his one eye turning a light blue.

"Dusknoir!" the Pokemon called as the leaves slowed to a hault, a few barely inches from his face. "Dusk, Dusknoir!" The Pokemon's big hands pushed out, all of the leaves retreating from the Ghost-Type and directicing back towards the opposing Pokemon. Meanwhile, Max was quick to hollar towards his other Pokemon.

"Flame, take the hit!" the boy barely had time to say his command before the Mach Punch slammed right into his Pokemon's face, right on the side. Flame blinked for a moment, staying in place where his face stopped when it had gotten hit. Then, slowly, he turned back towards the Blaziken, blinking as if not much had turn him. Though his cheek looked a little beat up.

"Phloshun!" the Pokemon's facial expression suddenly got a little feirce, looking at it's trainer our of the corner of it's eye.

"Alright, Flame!" he called to his Pokemon. "Blast Burn!" Instantly, the Pokemon's back lite up in flames, Flame practicaly snarling as fire began seaping from him.

"Phloshun!" Flame practicatly shouted as a burst of fire surrounded him, escalading outwards in a firey blast.
