Sulteron(Insert clinche for beggining here)Route 1

[BirdyBot]

Sulteron walked along the plain, her Dratini snaking along beside her. "Dratini, would you like a name? I've been thinking of various names good for Pokemon. How about... Zen, meaning `good`?" She asked Dratini. ~Sure, why not. Sounds OK for a Dratini.~ Zen replied, pink scales gleaming in the sun. ~Um, you were saying that you won a Pokemon, and could we meet that Pokemon you adopted?~ She asked.

"Sure!" Sulteron grinned. Finaly, her dream had come true. For the first time in her life, she threw a Pokeball, and her Pokemon burst out.

First a Beedrill, then a Ponyta, emerged. Beedrill buzzed around its trainer. "Um, how about we call you Sting?" Sulteron asked, eying Sting's large stinger. ~Fine by me.~ Sting buzzed.

~Hey, Sulteron, do all Ponyta have blue fire?~ Zen asked, looking at the Ponyta with a confused expression. "Blue fire? Of course not!" Sulteron said. Then she realised. Her Ponyta did have blue fire. "Oh, wait. I think... are you a shiny?" She asked her Ponyta. ~Yes, haven't you noticed?~ was her reply. Sulteron nodded, and seemed lost in thought for a moment. "How about we call you Faia?" She said, rubbing Ponyta's velvet fur. ~Fine by me.~ Faia said, nudging Sulteron's hand off with her muzzle.

A tall patch of grass started rustling a quite loudly, and after a few moments, a small blue ball with feet and a crest of bright green leaves stumbled out.
"Odd?" It said, staring curiously at Sulteron and her Pokemon.

[BirdyBot]

Faia nuzzled the Oddish with her muzzle. ~Hey there.~ She greeted it. Sting flew behind her trainer, unsure of how to react. Zen snaked forwards, making a playfull sound. Sulteron stepped forwards. "Hello, Oddish. Anything of intrest going on?" She asked.

[Rosalina]

"Dish!!" The Oddish squealed in fear at the sight of Faia's blazing mane, and stumbled backwards a step. It appeared to be pretty unstable on those little feet. It looked a little less afraid when Sulteron spoke to it, however. ~Uh, n-not r-really...~ It stuttered in a high-pitched voice.

[BirdyBot]

Faia tossed her head. ~I'm not going to hurt you, I'm a fellow Pokemon!~ She tried to resure the Oddish. Sulteron, also realising its fear, as well as its unstability, asked, "No need to be afraid. And are you OK? Your legs..."

[Rosalina]

~Uh, a-all Oddish are a l-little wobbly... It's b-because we have such s-small feet. A mean Electrike was teasing me for it the other day...~ The Oddish stuttered. Apparently it was having a bit of a rough time with some bullying Pokemon.

[BirdyBot]

"Oh, OK. But... do you have bully problems? I'd be willing to help you out." Sulteron offered. Zen snaked her way forwards, not wanting to miss out.

[Rosalina]

~Not right now. A trainer caught Electrike earlier. But I'm worried that his buddies will come and bully me instead... And they're a lot more violent... Oh, no, that's them!~ The Oddish shouted, running over to Sulteron and hiding behind her as a group of angry Electrike approached.
~Move, human. We have an Oddish to take care of. We know she had something to do with Volt's capture.~ The one in front said in a gruff voice. The Oddish squeaked and started trembling.

[BirdyBot]

Sulteron swished her mint green tail angriliy from side to side. "I don't think she did! Aparently she was being bullied by Volt! So no, I won't move aside, why should I allow you to bully that poor Oddish?!" She cried in outburst. She had often been bullyed, and it felt good to stand up to some. Faia gave a whinny and reared up, blue mane flaring. Zen and Sting flew and slithered around her, trying to calm her sudden rage.

[Rosalina]

The Electrike flinched a bit, but remained in place. ~Then we'll make you move.~ His fur started to crackle as he gathered his electrical power. The other Electrike did the same. Uh-oh, it looks like they're going to use a combined attack!
~Just run! Please! I don't want you to get hurt because of me!~ Oddish cried.

[BirdyBot]

Sulteron smiled. "Don't worry, we'll be fine." She reassured the Oddish. She turned to her Pokemon, still wrestling with Faia. "Zen, come on, it's a battle! Faia, calm down!" She called. Zen slithered proudly in front of of Sulteron. "Wrap!" Zen pen fowards, about to curl her body on an Elektrike.

[Rosalina]

The Electrike Zen had targeted, startled, let out a stream of electricity towards the small dragon.
Another Electrike shifted his electrical power into a Thunder Wave attack on Zen, while the others kept charging for their attack on Sulteron and the rest of her team.

[BirdyBot]

Zen dodged the Thunder Wave but was hit by the other attack. She screeched, glowing with crackling electricity. Faia snorted, and neighed, rearing up. She couldn't take just watching this any longer. ~You... This is unfair!~ She yelled, charging the one who hadstruck Zen with a Tackle attack, her fiery blue mane billowing out behind her.

[Rosalina]

The Electrike was hit by Faia, and yelped. His fur had caught on fire from the Ponyta's mane, and he was proceeding to run around in circles yelling for someone to put it out. Rather funny, actually.

The other Electrike finally launched their attack, a Thunder on Sulteron's entire team. Oddish cried out and covered her eyes with the leaves on her head, not wanting to see such a nice person get hurt and not knowing what else to do.

[BirdyBot]

Sulteron gasped and sheilded her face. Zen looked terrified, and Faia didn't really seem to care much for her trainer, but shielded Zen. Sulteron, Sting and Faia all yelped as the Thunder struck, and Zen peered out, surprised at Faia's actions, from underneath her.

Sulteron brushed herself down. "I'm OK, everyone. Let's continue the battle! Zen, Wrap, Faia, Tackle!" She ordered. Then, to Oddish, "It's all right. Small sacrifices must be made sometimes. And besides, that was nothing more than a little discomfort!"
