Wild Pokémon Catch-All 2

[bravenewmods]

The vast wilderness beckons! Beginning January 25th, 2014, all wild Pokémon threads that aren't incorporated as part of another post should go here. You are still welcome to include a section for bonding with wild Pokémon as a part of another entry or a log, but we encourage isolated wild Pokémon threads to go here to prevent flooding of the main comm with entries specifically geared to only cover wild Pokémon threads.

Please respond to the correct Week if possible for organizational purposes.

[Mindful of her distance to the others, she frowns, before continuing to follow the trail of prints. There didn't seem to be other prints in the area, so was this pokemon injured, and alone?]

[bravenewmods]

[The trail leads into that small stand of frost-covers trees. The sound of ice creaking in the boughs of the canopy sets an eerie tone, a groaning orchestra playing winter's natural concerto. The tracks lead to a huge old oak that'd fallen, finally snapping under the weight of ice and years. It's hollow in there, a wide gash rotted out of the once mighty tree.

And from inside? A plaintive bleating, echoing through the chamber.]

[wise_maiden]

[Not being able to see the pokemon immediately was a concern. though the sounds of it were definitely ones of distress. That was something Raine was familiar with.

The question of how aggressive it would be toward a human depended on the nature of the injury, and perhaps familiarity as well. She casts a small glow of light around her, one to help her see and allow the creature to see her better, and to keep her companions aware of where she was. Just in case.

That done she steps closer to the fallen oak, cautiously peeking inside.]

[bravenewmods]

[Inside, she'll see a pokemon peering out at her. One leg is plainly hurt, a twist or something at the knee joint making it hard to wobble.

It doesn't seem aggressive, it just looks at the human with wide, unblinking eyes.]

[wise_maiden]

[Is too bright? She softens the glow as she gets a better look at the pokemon's situation, stepping in closer before pausing, trying to keep a respectable distance. The clarity of the tracks at least meant that it hadn't been holed up in here like this for too long, but...

Really it's a matter of trying how to best convey her intentions. She moves her gaze from it's face, and toward the injured leg.]

May I come closer? I may be able to help.

[bravenewmods]

[The Sawsbuck doesn't move too much, but it does slide it's injured leg out for the human to inspect.]

Saws...

[If you help it, then it will be most grateful. It's obviously a little scared, a nervousness about it, but it's also aware that it is trapped.]

[wise_maiden]

Easy now...

[She moves all the way forward at that acknowledgement, kneeling to take a better look at the injury.]

It doesn't seem to be broken... a sprain maybe? Or... hmm. [She gently checks to make sure there's nothing extra aggravating the knee.]

[bravenewmods]

[It's just twisted, ultimately, which is what her Analysis will grant her. It probably stepped in a hole, but either way with the trouble going on around here and hungry hunters? Without some help it's probably a goner.

It shivers slightly, but looks at Raine somewhat expectantly.]

[wise_maiden]

[Well Raine didn't come all this way to not help. Once she's finished examining to her satisfaction, she glances back up toward it's face.]

It'll be fine, I promise.

[Then, holding her hands out and closing her eyes briefly to concentrate, she sends a wave of healing energy out towards the pokemon. At the very least, it should help with the pain, but hopefully it would alleviate some of the swelling of the injury.]

[bravenewmods]

[It does help. The Sawsbuck sighs happily as the pressure is released, and then it leans it's head forward to nuzzles Raine's hand. Right around the Warp Band.

A long, pink tongue flicks out to lick her hand as well.

Seems like you've made a friend. You might want to try that newfangled doohicky.]

[wise_maiden]

[Raine smiles and gives a little laugh in surprise at the sudden lick.] Hm?

[Ah yes. She almost forgot about that item. It couldn't hurt to try it out. She did feel a bit invested toward the pokemon now, after all.]

There, that's better now, isn't it? I'd still like to keep an eye on you... if that's all right.

[bravenewmods]

[The Sawsbuck nods and gets up, much sturdier. Feelings of gratitude flood through the bond, and a promise of repayment.

Stepping closer, the huge Pokemon nuzzles her hand, and then clambers out of the hole.

Bonding complete!]

[wise_maiden]

[Raine watches it's progress with a smile. What a wonderful feeling!]

There are humans around the camp, but they won't harm you. Besides, you're probably hungry, right?

[She'll just continue to reassure it and keep an eye on it's steadiness.]
