Opposites Attract


Shadow Fire

Snappy dodged just as quickly, casting a quick glance back at his trainer. The red-haired teen seemed rather irate.

 

"Snappy, it's time!" he called out. "Surf!"

 

The Croconaw gave a snap of his jaws, before using the attack. A huge wall of water surged upwards, Snappy taking control of it and surfing at full speed towards the fire Pokemon.

Snappy gave a cry of surprise as the level of water he was riding began to recede. By the time he'd closed in on Cynder, it was only half the size. Hitting Cynder at a slower speed, the Croconaw jumped back, and glanced back at Silver in confusion.

 

"Croco?" he asked. "Naw naw croco naw?"

 

Of course, even though nobody truly understood Pokemon, Silver seemed to know what his Pokemon was asking.

 

"How the hell should I know?" he hissed. "That was unexpected. I've never seen such a move be used like that! Well, since water type moves are weakened for a while, we'll just have to rely on your brute strength. Bite, now!"

 

The Croconaw shot in close, chomping its fangs menacingly.

Snappy was unprepared for the attack, the Quilava opponent slamming into his chest, taking him back a few meters.

 

Snappy, if things are grim, use whatever you can to your advantage. You are my Pokemon, so I know you'll think of something.

 

Having remembered what Silver had told him, the Croconaw gave a groan as he was still being pushed back, and suddenly lifted his arms, before allowing himself to fall backwards. As he went towards the ground, he used his paws to support him, before lifting his feet and slamming them into his opponent's stomach. As his foe shot away from him, he utilised acrobatic talent, bringing himself to his feet again. Clutching the side of his chest, the crocodile Pokemon hissed in pain.

Silver glanced at his Pokemon for a moment, a look of worry flashing onto his face, but as quick as it came, it was gone just as so.

 

"Snappy!" he yelled out. "Water Pulse!"

 

One last desperate course of action. Having understood that his Pokemon held the Torrent attribute, he knew that while this physically weakened, water attacks would be stronger in power, resisting the effects of Sunny Day. As the Quilava got closer and closer, Snappy bode his time, before unleashing the Water Pulse.

OFF TOPIC:

Now, for other people reading this, the last couple posts, and this one as well contain what we call god-modding. :P However, since Crimson and I have roleplayed together for years now, we know how the other thinks.

 

Another look of worry shot onto Silver's face as he watched Snappy go flying backwards, landing on the ground with a thud which sent dust flying. Watching as both Pokemon got to their feet, he raised a hand to his mouth, beginning to chew on his thumbnail.

 

Snappy...

 

Snappy glanced over to his trainer, before giving a weak smile and slumping back to the ground, out cold. Silver let out a wounded sigh. He'd lost again. Holding out his Monster Ball, he recalled the crocodile. Glancing at the capsule, a small smile broke out on his face.

 

It was a close one, so I'll forgive you for losing... Snappy.

Indeed, so do not worry if this occurs often. We're used to it. :)

 

Ethan ran over to his pokemon and knelt down next to him, lightly petting his head. "You did a great job, Cynder." He murmured, pulling out the starter's monster ball and recalling him. "We'll get you healed up in no time." He stood up slowly, falling silent.

The small smile remained on Silver's face until he looked up and realised that Ethan was staring at him. Smile fading, replaced with a frown, the red-haired teen locked his eyes with the raven-haired boy's.

 

"You beat me again..." he said. "But I'll continue onwards and get stronger. Mark my words, I will crush you!"

 

Rushing forwards, he gave Ethan a slight shove to get past, and disappeared into Ilex Forest.

Safely in the Ilex Forest, Silver let out all of his Pokemon, before beginning the task of healing them all. His mind wandered back to the climactic finale of the battle, and he gave another slight smile.

 

"Snappy..." he muttered. "You took a big risk, but I'm proud to call you mine. You used intuitive thinking. When you recover, we'll train some more, and then we'll crush our opponents... all of them."

"Here you are dear, your pokemon are fully healed." Nurse Joy said with a smile. Ethan smiled back faintly before turning and quietly heading to the room he had been in before. Sitting on the bed he called out Cynder who yawned and stretched, leaping onto the bed and crawling onto his trainer's lap. Ethan smiled faintly again, stroking his pokemon's fur. 'What a day.' He thought with a sigh. 'It not over yet either. I wonder if I should head to Ilex Forest? Then again, I might run into him...I really don't feel like seeing him again at the moment.'

Pokemon all healed, Silver had finally reached the other side of the forest. Walking towards Goldenrod City, the boy gave a sigh of relief as he took his first steps into the city. Glancing around, he took note of key locations.

 

Department Store... Flower Shop... Contest Hall... Global Trade Station... this place puts Celadon City to shame...

"I may as well." He decided with a sigh. "I could probably get to Goldenrod before sunset..." Standing up after Cynder jumped from his lap, the trainer and his pokemon left. After giving the key back to Nurse Joy, Ethan headed out of the Pokemon Center with Cynder at his heels. 'I hope we can get there quickly...'

As he walked around town, Silver noticed the radio tower, and made plans to go inside to check things out. However, he stopped when he saw a Team Rocket Grunt standing out front, plotting something.

 

What the hell are they up to? Well, I'd rather not find out yet. I don't want them to know I'm here... not yet anyway. I'll buy what I need and get to the next town quickly.

 

Clutching his bag over his shoulder, the boy ran towards the department store.

Silver had finished shopping, shifting his bag on his shoulder.

 

I've got a lot of Monster Balls now... More Pokemon for me to catch. I'm surprised at all the extra items on offer in Johto. I've not heard of many of these. Oh well, it's getting late. Better head off.

 

Making his way to the exit of Goldenrod City, he headed towards Ecruteak City. Had he delayed any longer, he'd have been seen by his just arriving rival.

Ethan made his way into the city and looked around before looking at his pokemon, "What do you think, boy? Should we rest for the night, or go visit the gym." Cynder looked up at his trainer for a moment before heading further into the city causing the raven haired teen to laugh, "That's what I thought."

Heading towards the National Park, Silver learned that there was a contest held on certain days, dedicated to catching various bug-type Pokemon in an attempt to get the best catch. However, since it wasn't one of the days the contest fell on, it was simply a relaxation visit.

 

"Fine with me..." Silver mumbled to himself as he walked into the park. "I could do with a bit of relaxation. Maybe even some training to help calm my nerves."

OFF TOPIC:

Since time has passed a bit, I'm skipping the battles in the park. =P

It was already late when Silver defeated the final trainer in National Park. His Pokemon, while relatively unscathed from battle, were getting a little fatigued. The red-haired teen gave a slight yawn of his own.

 

I guess I'd better get some rest. Ecruteak City seems to be a bit of a distance away... and uphill at that.

 

Walking towards a secluded area at the rear of the park, Silver began setting up his sleeping bag.
