[If you haven't seen Paul in a while, that's not your fault. Then again, it's never your fault. He's isolated himself with his Pokemon training as per usual, determined to get his team and himself refined as much as he possibly can so he won't feel like such a detriment to everyone else he knows, most of which tend to outshine him vastly with their ( Read more... )

[Another unfortunate Koffing has met with teenager Archer's mean-spirited Poliwag. This time, however, it's just for more training- and, now, the fruit of that training! Evolution!]

[With arms, Poliwhirl can finally spike that Koffing over the theoretical net! Koffing is making the saddest face, but it is stopped by a gentle tap from its trainer.] ( Read more... )

[Thank you so much, tsuuuun, for giving Paul that Skarmory of DEATH. He hadn't gotten around to interacting with it before his sudden canon update disappearance, so once Paul got himself settled in on the island once more and is back to training his Pokemon...

All hell broke loose the second he let that Skarmory out.

There are KOed Pokemon of Paul's ( Read more... )

[Red's training in the open today, cloaked as usual, with his full team. However, they're on a stage of his training schedule that isn't exactly orthodox, normal, or sane. He has eight Pokemon aiming their attacks at him, while he attempts to dodge. He's already sporting several injuries from earlier training accidents. This is entirely normal.

[Due to certain Sinnoh protagonists and rivals making it to the island recently and a slightly paranoid nature, Gold has been training ( Read more... )

[Most mornings in the rocky areas around Umbra Cave are fairly peaceful; there's not much in the area that would be naturally inclined to cause many disturbances, you see. However, there would be no particular need to mention this morning if it were exactly like most mornings, now, would there ( Read more... )

[Normally Archie would be by the beach training his Pokemon, but his life has been anything but normal for the past few days. He's finally decided that it's time to seriously train his Pokemon, and that is why he's in the Aurora Forest today, with all six Pokemon out and spread out in a circle around him ( Read more... )

][Wes is out and about again today. The difference? Today, he has a Feraligatr with him, and it doesn't seem to like him much. In fact, it's outright attacking him. Nimble footwork is the only thing keeping him from getting bitten in two, but he doesn't seem at all scared. In fact, there's a somewhat manic look on his face as he barely dodges ( Read more... )

[ For those who have seen Tallie before, something might seem rather... off about her. After a run-in with a Courtney and returning home for a very brief time, the best way to put it is that she's a little bit more unstable than before.

For those who don't know her, she may just look like a very determined May (or Sapphire) look-alike that is ( Read more... )

[Silver is an odd sort of Trainer- if only in the sense that he doesn't really train his Pokemon on the Island. Part of it is because he and his Pokemon are too far removed from the Island's reality for matches against wild Pokemon to even be a possibility. A larger part of it is that he's simply disinterested in it ( Read more... )
