[Today is Train Your Pokémon to Battle Day! And having finally recovered slightly from his ordeal, Lucas is using the last few days of his requested vacation from work to get some of this move groove going. He's never been one to push his Pokémon to train until they drop or anything, but in light of the fact that new and unusual threats seem to be cropping up quickly, it's worth taking a few hours every week to do his part.]
[action 1]
[Early in the morning, Lucas is sitting on a bench in the city holding what looks to be a disc in one hand and a Castform in the other. Anyone who has borrowed a TM from the Rangers will recognize what Lucas is holding... and probably what he's unsuccessfully doing, too.]
Um.
[He scratches at the back of his head a little before gingerly placing the disc on Castform's forehead and staring at it expectantly for a few moments.]
Or...
[Now he rotates Castform every which direction and scrutinizes it carefully.]
Maybe...
[Castform's mouth is slowly eased open as Lucas peers inside.]
...I don't think it's going to fit.
[action 2]
[Having sorted out that TM business (why didn't anyone tell him it would play a video on his Warp Band???), Lucas is in the forest outside Union with a Mareep after lunch. He swings a stick energetically like a conductor while the Mareep disinterestedly wanders around eating every piece of vegetation in sight.]
Thundershock!
[Mareep calmly annihilates a pretty blue flower.]
Thundershock!
[One petal at a time.]
...OK, pretend I'm a bad guy and I'm going to hit you. You've got to get me away however you can! Like a real fight, OK? Count of three.
One. Two. Three --
[And as Lucas runs towards the Mareep with the stick held high, the formerly cloudless sky instantly materializes a bank of dark clouds and launches a massive thunderbolt that jolts right through the boy.]
eeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
[Down he goes. Mareep quietly meanders over and noses at his awkwardly twitching and spasming trainer on the ground. Was that a little too much?]
aaaaaaaaaaah........

Michiru reaches out to grab Shinx though. Let's not spark near the electrified child.]
That was quite a bolt. [and that twitching is a cause for concern. Probably.]
no subject
...Wait where is her wool?]
I'm really proud of him...
[It seems to be dying down a little now as Lucas groans slightly.]
He always ignores me when I try to train him, but...
no subject
It looks as if he's plenty capable of training himself. [here. Michiru's offering a hand to Lucas, now that the threat of static electricity has died down a bit.]
no subject
[At the moment, Mareep is trying to say that while Kitty probably can't get as nice of an electric buildup as he can, he supposes her fur will do OK.
Lucas will slowly reach for Michiru's hand before he stops abruptly.]
W-Wait...
no subject
Some may be more independent than - [Michiru starts to respond, but then pauses curiously, hand still outstretched.]
no subject
[Lucas has frozen in the position he assumed - his eyes seem transfixed on something far off in the distance...]
Don't... Don't move.
[That's all the warning he gives before he sparks once again, the electricity taking on a strange greenish hue. It seems almost as if his body is re the current that's just traveled through him.
With a gasp, a burst of energy shoots up from Lucas back into the sky, creating an explosion of green fireworks high above...]
no subject
Shinx squeaks loudly and falls over! That was surprising!!!]
no subject
[Lucas seems dizzy again for a moment as the rush of energy explodes out of him.]
Ah, sorry! I'm not sure what happened -- it was like... I couldn't keep it in!
Are you both OK?
no subject
Yes, we're both fine. [Michiru seems Kore concerned about you, though she takes a moment to look up. At least it didn't seem like any Flying types got caught up on it.]
Are you alright?
