"YES OUR TEETH AND AMBITIONS ARE BARED! BE PREPARED!"
"*Zigzagoon, seriously!?*"
"*Boss' orders. And before you ask, when I say "Boss", I mean Ko-ken. You know Yumi hates the idea of sending us out on trips without the rest of the team backing us up in an emergency.*"
"*Good point*"
Once again Target and Grim were sent out to the location of another horde. With the teams teleporters dropping them off in the area with the promise to be back in a half hour to pick up the catches, the poison and the ghost type had to get to work. Truth be told, the two pokemon who normaly hated having to work together seemed rather pleasant in comparison today. Perhaps it had something to do with the near sacrifice Grim had made for Target on their last trip out. Nevertheless, the Nidorino was still somewhat ticked about the low level pokemon they'd be hunting today. Zigzagoon were nothing special, plus, Grim had an immunity to most of their natural moves, so it would be relatively easy to take them out.
"*Lets just find what we need and get the hell out of here.*"
Trying to spend as little time here as he needed, Target was quick to spot the nearest zigzagoon and make it his own target. There wasn't exactly a shortage of zigzagoon during swarm season, so it was no surprise to see three of the normal types rather than the one that had caught his eye as he got closer. As always, Grim kept his distance, not exactly the most personal fighter, though since only one of his moves could effect these zigzagoon, and it was physical, he decided to take just a few steps closer.
"*Any witty line or needless advice before I charge in there?*"
"*Make sure you don't break any necks?*"
"*I'll try*"
With no hesitation, like many of Yumi's pokemon, Target rushed towards the zigzagoon who quickly became alerted to the presence of their assailants. As his horn glew bright in preperation for his poison jab, another zigzagoon came out in preperation, charging with a headbutt, the two heads clashing strong and coming to a deadlock, though it was clear that the more powerul nidorino would come out the winner in but a few moments. The other wild pokemon closed in, seeing a chance to get the Nidorino off guard, but Grim wasn't about to let that happen so easily. Charging forward, one of his disconnected hands flew out for each of the remaining zigzagoon, punching them away with the power of a pursuit attack.
Free to finish his clash with the zigzagoon, he flung it into the air above him, turning around quickly and kicking it away with his double kick attack, dealing it heavy damage and KOing it as its back hit a tree. The two remaining normal types only became more enraged, slowly drawing closer and growling loudly, They charged in with their headbutt attacks, and Grim instinctively created his giant Needle for his curse attack.
"*Are you an idiot!? Their normal types!*"
Grim had to take a moment for that to register, seeming to groan as the realization his him. There was a time this would have worked on normal types, but it seemed evolution had screwed ghosts over just a little. "*Fine, lets improvise!*" Rushing forward, actually charging through his purple team mate, Grim took the brunt of the Zigzagoon rage, and nearly seemed to brighten up as the normal types just charged through him, and headbutt eachother. Turning back to look at Target, they knew what to do, and as Grim used both his hands to slam down on one wildling with pursuit, Target struck the other out with a use of his double kick once more, skidding to a halt beside Grim, and looking at the Zigzagoon around them.
"*...Do you think Yumi actually made a smart choice putting us together?*"
"*She may well have...*"
With that thought, the two pokemon picked up their catches, and took them to the pick up spot, waiting for their teleport home.
It was said that Breeders were very interesting among the Pokemon-raising community due to their interest in raising almost any kind of Pokemon. This was, in this specific Breeder's mind, a half-truth and a half-lie. Just like any other person, after all, Breeders had their preferences and styles which they liked to work with - she, for example, was quite apt at raising Bug-Type and Grass-Type Pokemon, due to her nature-based beliefs and upbringing. Still, though, she took with affection to most, if not all Pokemon that she encountered. And it did well for her business to have access to a plethora of Pokemon.
So it was with interest that she walked up to the area where the Zigzagoons were swarming, Poke Ball in hand. She was sure she could do this - she felt much more confident about her battling abilities after the Slateport incident. If she was able to hold off against this "Mega" Garchomp or whatever the people at the Lumiose Headquarters called it, she would be able to hold off against a Zigzagoon. Even if she was using one of her "weaker" Pokemon. With a soft smile, she put forth her hand, releasing the Pokemon inside with a flash of light.
"Kruphix, String Shot, and then Poison Sting!" She commanded somewhat gleefully, as the Wurmple, Kruphix, was released from the Poke Ball at one of the swarming Zigzagoons. The Bug-Type simply flew forth, spitting a thick string of silk on the Normal-Type, covering it and hampering movement. The Normal-Type, somewhat surprised, tried to respond by flaring its fur, the sharp points of it shooting outwards towards the Wurmple. Kruphix made no sense of fear nor noticing as he raised his head and fired a stream of poisonous pins, the Poison Sting matching the Pin Missile attack.
The Zigzagoon tried to run at the Wurmple, while still somewhat impaired by the String Shot, and smack into it with Headbutt, but Kruphix matched the attack with Tackle attack.
"Poison Sting, once more, and then get a good String Shot in there."
The Bug-Type did just that, spraying at the Zizgagoon with a shower of poison pins, the attack seeping into the Normal-Type, poisoning it. All three now knew it was only a matter of time, so the Zigzagoon tried to dash again, Headbutt directed at the Wurmple. But Kruphix simply attacked once more with String Shot, the thick silk preventing movement from the Zigzagoon. The Normal-Type quickly fell, exhausted and weakened from the poison.
The Breeder almost felt bad at the situation. She threw the empty Poke Ball, desiring to quickly transport this little one to the Pokemon Center.
"Get back here!" Josh called as he chased after a pack of Three Zigzagoon. One of them had stolen the keys to the "thing" he was meaning to show Izumi while Josh was in town, and it had been tossing it to the other two, rotating as they ran. Josh had chased them outside the city, and into the forest, but Josh knew he couldn't just chase them forever. No matter the physical conditioning, he had to catch them before he got tired and they got away.
Three Zigzagoon? Three Pokemon. Fair enough.
Josh would clip three Pokeballs from his belt and quickly let them out.
"Go Ace, Vector, Lightning!" Josh called as the three were let out. "Pidgoooo!" Ace let out as he flew above Josh's head. The Pidgeotto had just been welcomed back to Josh's team recently after a long vacation at the ranch, but now was time for action!
"CROC!" Vector let out, happy for some action. "Pika!" Lightning chirped, and both of them would quickly bolt after the fleeing Zigzagoons as Josh pointed at them. They wouldn't let them get away.
"Lightning, stop them with Thunderbolt! Get the one in the middle!" Josh called. "Pika!" Lightning called as he would quickly climb up a tree and stand on the branch. "Pika.... CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!" Lightning let out as the jolt of lightning would shock the middle Zigzagoon, hard. As it started fizzling, the other two would take notice and turn around, growling at them as Lightning stopped the shock. The middle one would spit out the keys, and Josh would catch them in mid-air, putting them away. "Thank god..." he muttered. He couldn't lose them just after getting them! He had to be more careful!
But they had riled up the Zigzagoon, that was obvious. "Looks like we have no choice but to fight" he said as the first one would recover and the trip would lunge for them.
"Vector, Rage!" Josh called, pointing to the one on the left. "Ace, use Agility and then follow up with Quick Attack!" Josh called, pointing to the one on the right. "And Lightning, use Nasty Plot, then follow up with a Quick Attack!" he called to Lightning. "CROC!" Vector would let out as his eyes turned a dark red and he would slam his claws into one of the Zigzagoon, sending it back. The Zigzagoon was spunky though, and would charge, ramming his head into Vector. Bad move. Despite Vector being damaged and falling back, it was like it hadn't happened as he got right back up.. The eyes actually glowing a bit. Josh realized his attack power had increased, and Vector would just plain use Rage once again without hesitation, the claws slamming into the Zigzagoon again. Ziggy saw what he was in for, and would defiantly shoot a Pin Missile from his mouth toward Vector.... Bad move.
The Zigzagoon on the right would dodge as Ace would go for the Quick Attack, but Josh would quickly point out to the Zigzagoon. "U-turn your flight and use Quick Attack again!" he commanded. "Pidgooo!" Ace would answer, flying upwards, skimming up past a tree, before flipping back and then letting his speed increase as he would slam into the Zigzagoon, who would respond by using Belly Drum. While it's damage was cut, the Headbutt that would nail Ace from behind and send the Pidgeotto crashing to the ground was incredibly powerful. Josh gritted his teeth, before switching his look over to Lightning...
Lightning has followed orders, charging toward the middle Zigzagoon with Quick Attack, gaining speed as he went. The Zigzagoon was angry at Lightning for shocking him and would charge head on. The Zigzagoon's Headbutt and Lightning's Quick Attack would collide, sending both back. "Thunder Wave!" Josh suddenly called. "Pika!" Lightning called as he would loose a jet of small blue electricity, which would hit the Zigzagoon head on. "Zagoon!" it let out painfully as the sparks outlining it's body made it hard to move. But before Josh could take advantage, the Zigzagoon would manage to move, with Paralysis being random, and suddenly ram Lightning with a Headbutt while he was recovering, sending him crashing into a tree with incredible speed. "Pika!" Lightning let out in pain as he crashed. "Lightning!" Josh called, growling. This wasn't looking good...
The Pin Missiles would collide over and over with Vector, who was taking them... Too enraged to move. But for every Pin Missile, Vector's eyes would glow more and more. His claws were glowing a dark red that seemed to shine the more times it got hit... The Zigzagoon was tempting fate, and Vector was just taking the blows from this move... Bad for him. Josh knew he couldn't get through to his Croconaw while he was enraged though... What could he do?
"CROCONAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWW!" Vector suddenly let out in a sea of rage, and would charge, through the pin missiles, taking all the damage in the process, before he would slam the glowing claws into the Zigzagoon with Rage. That was the most powerful shot Josh had ever seen him deliver, as the Zigzagoon would go flying, crashing through several trees before landing in the bushes, fainted.
"CO-NAW!" he let out as he would suddenly attack the one on the right as it tried to headbutt Ace. With another Rage attack, this one with fly through the air... "Wing Attack!" Josh called. "Pidgoooo!" Ace let out as his wing would glow, and he would slam it into the Zigzagoon with quite the velocity, sending it down to the ground and fainted as well.
"Lightning, you gotta get up!" he said as Lightning would start to get to his feet. Then Josh felt something on his nose... A raindrop?
"Gah, damnit..." he muttered, as the clouds gathered and rain started falling. The Zigzagoon was racing towards Lightning, quite fast now... Josh had to do something...
Wait a minute... That's it!
And right on cue, the Paralysis would take effect and the Zigzagoon would stop moving, trying to get it's bearings back, "Lightning, use Thunder!" Josh called.
"Pika!" Lightning chirped as he felt the raindrops on his cheeks. The cheeks would spark viciously, he was ready to rumble...
"Pika..... CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!" Lightning let out in a ferocious tone as the massive burst of electricity would explode into the stormclouds. In response, a bolt of lightning would shoot out from the clouds, colliding with and frying the Zigzagoon. The thing would collapse to the ground and Josh would throw the pokeballs for all three of them. "Great job, guys" he said with a smile. "You did great..."
