Leo and Lian had been travelling together for two days. For some reason, they were out of the forest.
"Whoah! How'd you do that!?" Leo exclaimed, glancing around at the valley around them. There were a few pokemon around the area, and a dirt road went through the middle. Behind them lay the accursed forest of the letter X.
Lian shrugged. "I didn't go in circles, I guess." The sea weasel was about to snap back at his companion when a truck drove down the path. The two pokemon hid behind the bushes, watching the vehicle drive by. It was purple. On the side in red letters, the truck said "X- TREME POKEMON." Leo screamed, covering his eyes.
"The letter X! IT BURRNSS."
Lian rolled his eyes. The partners watched the truck hit a rock, jerking before settling back to a normal pace. Something flew out of the truck. It landed, dazed. Leaping to its feet, it looked around, spotting the truck and running after it. Leo and Lian looked at eachother, shrugging.
"So, genius, which way now?" Leo said, lying in the grass. Lian looked around.
"Well you didn't tell me what exactly you were planning on doing... You just told me to show you the way out of the forest and get you some food..."
Leo blinked. Actually, he had no idea what he was going to do. He thought this god would come down from the sky to guide him or something.
"Well... I wanted to become the strongest pokemon to walk the lands. You know, like the ones humans train. I want to be able to take down a legendary and become famous." Leo said, looking at the field before them. "What are you doing out here?"
"Well, have you ever heard of Gallade?" Leo shook his head. "Well, it's this freaking awesome evolution that was newly discovered. It's all manly, and only male Ralts can evolve into it. So now, we won't have to worry about wearing dresses anymore. All we have to do is find this blue stone somewhere..."
Leo smirked to himself, surpressing laughter. "Well, I guess you and I are going to travel together. We both want to become stronger, and the only way to do that is... To have a battle." He stood up, beaming. Lian blinked, before jumping to his feet.
"You're on."
Both pokemon ran to a different side of the field, battle ready. Starly, Bidoof, and Shinx all gathered to watch.
"Ready?" Leo asked, smiling?
"Ready."
Yay a battle! Let's leave a small cliffhanger and go to another character!
The pokemon ran as fast as her stubby legs could take her. Clutching her shell, she cried, "No, wait! Stop!" The purple truck continued driving. The pokemon fell, sobbing to herself. She stood up, looking around. She was in a thick forest, hopelessly lost. Sighing to herself, she clumsily got up, trudging in a random direction that could lead her to someplace. Probably not though. She was doomed. Oh well.
Leo and Lian time!
Leo launched a Water Gun and the Ralts. Lian smirked, easily stopping it and using his psychic powers to twist it back towards the Buizel. Leo's eyes widened, he stopped firing, leaping out of the way of the gush of water. Leo charged, covering himself with gushing water. He slammed into Lian, who tumbled but landed on his feet. The Ralts charged psychic energy, using Confusion on the sea weasel. Leo flew backwards, and was tackled from behind by Lian, who had used Teleport to get behind him.
"Yeah go Ralts!" A Bidoof said in the crowd. A Starly threw a berry at him, and the battle resumed.
Leo growled, getting back on his feet and charging at Lian at a high speed. He slammed into the psychic type, only to be hit by another Confusion. He narrowed his eyes, it seemed that he couldn't win... Maybe he could use that new attack... Leo opened his mouth, gushing water at his foe. He stopped his attack, turning around to fire stars from his twin tails. The stars circled around the jet of water, slamming into Lian. At the end of the attack, Lian lay, dazed.
The battlefield was silent. Most pokemon thought that Lian was bound to win. Someone clapping was the only sound they heard. Leo turned to see a Snorunt on the other side of the dirt road, applauding.
"Very nice," she said cheerfully. "Very very nice attack, Buizel!" Leo blushed.
"Ohhh man, hot lady." He drooled.
Lian walked up and slapped his friend (not so much) across the face.
Suddenly, a shadow fell over the vally. Leo dismissed it as a cloud, but the other pokemon fled. The sea weasel and Ralts glanced around, confused. Suddenly, a giant steel bird dropped from the sky, grabbing the Snorunt in its talons.
"UGH! WHY DOES EVERY HOT LADY GET ATTACKED BY SOMETHING? WHY?" Leo yelled.
Lian grabbed his paw. "Shut up, we're going after them!"
