and fight to defend the world? Or do you believe in Galactic ideals, wishing to follow their efforts in starting anew?
[ 08.15 ] Welcome to Sinnoh! Team Rocket have arrived in Sinnoh and have left a very daunting message here. With the introduction of a new class comes another promo!
Check out the rocket promotion here and stay tuned for many more exciting events!
major news alert!
witness reports from all over the region has been flooding in about strange happenings at the three lakes. what's more perplexing is that these occurrences seem to be happening spontaneously at the lakes. just moments ago, a burst of light erupted at the locations and residents in the vicinity have reported that the lake-side pokemon have turned aggressive and attack on sight.
However, there have been rumours and sightings of the legendary lake trio which has had trainers flocking in from all over the region.
After an exciting time in Jubilife, Lena is ready to move on to her next challenge: a gym. A real life, air-breathing, pokemon battling gym. Her stomach is in her toes as she walls, her queasiness not helped by her fear of moving about at night, but this was the fastest way to get there. She figured if she could make it through an all nighter, she would get there just in time for the gym to open. She has pumpkin to keep her awake, the mostly nocturnal skunk happy to be about in the evening hours. It's cold, for a summer night. Goosebumps raised and arms wrapped around herself, Lena only stares straight ahead. "We should have brought coffee, or tea, or something," she comments with a sigh, eyes darting about, expecting the unexpected.
Pumpkin doesn't say anything.
Because Pumpkin is a pokemon. All she gets is a yellow-eyed stare on that adorable, goofy little skunk face. "You smell bad." Pumpkin doesn't seem to mind, she's just happy to be here.
Clouds begin to muddle the night sky, hindering Lena's concussed sight and ability to stay calm. Rain drops begin to fall, and she feels her body begin to shiver. This was most definitely not how her pleasant walk to Oreburg was supposed to be. Pumpkin smells like damp skunk and Lena's stomach begins to growl. Croaking can be heard ahead, but she dismisses it as a nearby bog. She is sorely mistaken when Pumpkin suddenly screeches. deafening the area. The croaking turns high pitched and cracks; a truly awful sound. Into the darkness, Lena can only make out the flash of Stunky's claws her flashlight-- it's fighting something. The croaking turns defensive-- croagunk? To the best of her ability she aims the light, and catches a glimpse of the hazardous pink of the frog pokemon. "Great job, Pumpkin!" her cheer is hampered by rain, but it's genuine.
Pumpkin yelps as it's hit with an astonish from the opposing side, and poison gas fills the air as a result. Lena knows by now to cover her mouth and nose; her eyes squeeze shut after the initial release. For minutes, she is listening bling as the fight continues. "Just keep scratching, Pumpkin!" she calls out, voice muffled through her hoodie. When her eyes stop watering she shines her light on the rest-- Pumpkin happily sitting atop the fainted frog. "Be nice, he's coming with us. Guess I'm a poison girl now," she grumbles, tossing a pokeball at the croagunk. With the red flash, the bushes rustle around her, and the glare of watching eyes can only be seen for a split second before the spooked pokemon sulk away.
She is very, very not alone.

The night brings a very unexpected pokemon to follow-- Pumpkin has wandered into the brush, tail pointed up, nose twitching furiosly. It smells something sweet, and it's set on finding it. Lena calls out for the skunk, but Pumpkin only grunts in return. C'mon, not now.. she whines, sniffling.
Poison gas fills the air. Pumpkin comes scrambling out of the brush, a pink blob attached to her face. Lena nearly shits her pants; her heart is racing. What the fuck is that? Pumpkin falls over in a matter of seconds, limp. Lena didn't even hear the sing attack. "P-Pump--" Lena softly calls out to her pokemon, petrified. Two ears pop up from the pink blob, and the Jigglypuff makes itself known. "Shshithsit", Lena stumbles to release her starly. "Wing attack, please, right now!" she squeals. The bird is quick to attack, knocking the fairy type off of the stunky, who Lena quick recalls. Luckily the jigglypuff seems to have been poisoned; hopefully this will go quickly. A disarming voice fills the dark route, making Lena's skin crawl. Lancer doesn't seem to be fased. "Again!"
With the combined flying attacks and poison in its veins, the jigglypuff succombs. Lena places it back into the brush before recalling Lancer and releasing Pumpkin once more, treating the stunky with a full heal. The pokemon yawns, stretched, shakes itself off, and happily keeps moving forward.
"Geeze..."

Classic nighttime scares- Lena is suddenly faced with a very wet, sticky tongue, right on her face. She shrieks, of course. Lancer goes into panic mode, fluttering away at the noise. "Wing attack! Wing attack! Get it off, killitkillitkillit!" Hands flail to her face to try to wipe away anything residual as the gastly makes itself visible with a cackle. Big, jokester, huh? Think you're funny, huh?!
Lancer batters the ghost time, swopping down out of the way of its hypnotic waves. Another wing attack and the ghost type regrets ever making itself known, fainting. Sniffling, Lena uses a pokeball anyway.
A trainer has got to catch 'em all, right?
Now stuff for the paralytic effects of the Lick attack, half-slobbered on, and soaking wet from the rain, she highly doubts it could get any worse than it is right now.
The universe has proven her wrong before.
starly [lancer] - 13 - 100% lancer used wing attack! lancer dodged hypnosis! lancer used wing attack! pokeball used
The gastly, now hers, is placed on her belt with shakey hands, whether it be the cold and straight-up fear. She almost doesn't see the flash of light in front of her, she's so focused on the ground. Her starly is encaptured by it, his entire body glowing-- his wings stretch out, larger than before. His entire body is bigger, for that matter. A small tuft of feathers in a cow-lick style appears on his hand, and talons sharper than before grip the dirt. It's the first thing that brings a bright smile to her face-- evolution. She never expected it to happen so quickly! Evolution was, for like, real trainers, with strong pokemon. Could that possibly mean... Oh man, what a day. For a moment she forgets about the rain, a short-lived luxury that a clap of thunder ruins.
"Great job, buddy" she chirps. The moment is cut short by the appearance of another pokemon-- by the looks of it, an electric type. Lost, separated from its other half. Lena figures they must have been drawn out by the thunderstorm, despite the crackle of electricity above them. She's almost convinced to help, until the plusle gets the strangest look on its face, a very obvious nasty plot being formed against her. "Oh, hell no," Lena sneers, about to command Lancer to take the little mouse out. Then again, it is an electric type... while plusle weren't known for being exceptionally strong, she does not wish to underestimate the little pokemon. Instead, she sends out stunky, awake and ready to battle once more. For the few battles she has been in, Lena can only hope that Pumpkin won't be deceived by the little mouse.
"Lower its guard, then go at it!" No mercy. She was going to fight her way through this route if it killed her. Pumpkin let out a terrible cry, following up on it by slashing at the plusle with a scratch-- the combo continues once more, with plusle desperately trying to use its stat moves in return. Poor thing. Lena is too involved to notice that the thing can't even attack. It can, however, paralyze. The wild pokemon's cheeks start to spart, and it makes a running leap at Pumpkin-- "Don't fall for it!" Lena shouts, crossing her fingers. Pumpkin only looks at her, turns her rear, and releases a poison gas at the plusle. Lena's hand covers her mouth as she stifles a giggle. "G-Good job," she laughs. "Finish it though, please."
Another screech-scratch combo and the plusle is left fainted in the brush. Lena continues.

The gate was in her sights now, all that blocked it was a thing made out of knives. Lena grimaces, recalling her stunky and sending out Lancer once again. By the looks of the pawniard, she'll need speed-- that, and poison was useless against steel. "Move", she figures ordered the pokemon out of the way would sway it. It doesn't. The pawniard only leers at them. "Fine," she sighs. "Wing attack, until it's down". The bird moves swiftly, the battle consisting of four bouts of the staravia battering this pawniard down with its wings, only to have the steel type leer back, and defend itself with a scratch. "To its knees, quick attack".
She's tired. This mess is so close to being over. Staravia nearly knocks the pokemon out, and Lena captures it before it can get back up again. If anything, the pokemon was stubborn-- not a trait she was sure she wanted to work with. With a heavy sigh, she leaves the route.
