[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........
niepokonany: (Impossible! For a plain yellow pumpkin)

[On his way out of the city in the morning, Feliks happens to pass by Lucas's bench. He wanders over, blinking in ever-increasing confusion.]

...Um... What are you doing?
realmenknitplushies: (The heck?)

2:

[personal profile] realmenknitplushies 2015-02-17 05:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[...Okay, that wasn't what he'd expected to see on a day out training. Kanji might be electric-proof, but he swears, he could feel that...

So here, looking worried, running over to get a better look at what he'd only seen in the distance. Ow.]


...Damn. Y-you okay, man? Just breathe, alright, I'll see if I've got somethin' here for that...
realmenknitplushies: (39.)

[personal profile] realmenknitplushies 2015-02-17 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
That doesn't sound like any sorta 'fine' to me. C'mon.

[He sits down, starts hunting through his training supplies for a Paralysis Heal, frowning. Got to be one here somewhere.]

How'd ya manage that? [Glancing at the Mareep-] You do this?
niepokonany: (Another sign of tragic space dementia)

[personal profile] niepokonany 2015-02-18 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
[Feliks blinks. Maybe... Maybe he's trying to teach it to use Bite better?? Can Castforms even use that?]

...What'd you just put in its mouth?
realmenknitplushies: (11.)

[personal profile] realmenknitplushies 2015-02-18 11:55 am (UTC)(link)
Tch. You -

[And that interrupts anything Kanji was about to say to the fuzzball. He gasps slightly - okay, he's not sure what ability that's supposed to be, but it's positive? Right? Something's happening? Still going to get the medicine handy, but still...]
incousinswithyou: (apparently stupidity CAN impress)

[personal profile] incousinswithyou 2015-02-18 12:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[well then. That was quite a show. A little kitten of a Shinx thinks so too, and scrambles on over to Lucas and the Mareep and meeps at them. That was cool! And sparkly!]

Ah. Are you alright?
niepokonany: (How did it end up like this?)

[personal profile] niepokonany 2015-02-19 07:03 am (UTC)(link)
[Feliks frowns thoughtfully, looking at the disk.]

I've totally never used one of those... Ok, so like, what if you put it on here?

[Feliks points at the Castform's little sticking-up point on its head.]
realmenknitplushies: (Face on)

[personal profile] realmenknitplushies 2015-02-19 10:50 am (UTC)(link)
[Even Kanji steps back a bit at that - but his expression turns from worry to a grin at the sight.]

Damn! That's a hell of a trick. Is that what the shockin' was about? Or was that just an accident?
faithfulflame: (Rei Evil? Where?)

2

[personal profile] faithfulflame 2015-02-20 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
[Rei just happens to be riding by on her Arcanine when the lightning crackling sounds draw her attention. So, she rides up just in time to see poor Lucas get zapped.]

Oh! Savior, Lucas-kun! Are you okay?!
incousinswithyou: I guess I'll take the whip AND the leash (well when you put it that way...)

[personal profile] incousinswithyou 2015-02-20 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
[spurred on by that dazzling display, kitty concentrates super hard and...produces a spark! Kitty squeaks in surprise, and then tries to pretend she totally did that on purpose.

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.]
faithfulflame: (Mars Oh No!)

[personal profile] faithfulflame 2015-02-21 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
[Well she's running over to his side, and definitely calling out her Gardevoir...]

Deimos, Heal Pulse!

[Skeletal Electroboy Needs Heals Badly, Skeletal Electroboy Is About To Die!]
incousinswithyou: (of course I'm right)

[personal profile] incousinswithyou 2015-02-21 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
[Shinx blinks up at Aries. Wait. Is she missing something?? She wiggles in her Trainer's grip, before she finally gets placed on the ground. Aaand now she's turning around in circles, trying to see if she's got any wool.]

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.]
realmenknitplushies: (39.)

[personal profile] realmenknitplushies 2015-02-21 10:48 am (UTC)(link)
[Okay, he pulls out a straight-up potion for that, after another look at the Mareep. One Electric to another, you done messed up, fuzzy.]

Yeah? Whaddya mean 'strange', man?
