Cloud was off to the side, watching. He let his own Pokedex record the new Pokemon, letting him know what it was. The Furret definitely looked a lot sleeker. Pretty impressive.

"Good job, Zack."

They were out here because Zack wanted to go back to the Dark Cave, he had seen something in there during their short time within and he wanted to go back and try and catch it. He didn't before and considering they needed to train anyway, Cloud had figured why not. Besides, he wasn't comfortable with Zack going off alone.

"Thanks!" Zack said, grinning brightly at Cloud. He was glad his friend was coming with him on this trip.

He wasn't quite sure what the Pokemon he saw was since he didn't get his pokedex out in time, but he wanted to find out. When he had told Cloud about wanting to go back and look he hadn't really expected the blond to decide to go with him, but he was happy for the company. He was also glad that it gave Cloud a break from the group, well Squall mainly, as Zidane and Ammy were just more hyper, like Zack, than anything else.

It really was mostly an excuse to get away from Squall and the others. Zack was hyper enough, but three hyper people was just exhausting. Besides, it gave him more chances to train his Pokemon. Wartortle was proving something fierce in battle and his Bulbasaur evolved into an Ivysaur, along with his Pidgey becoming a Pidgeotto. Vulpix had gotten a little stronger but since she was the strongest, Cloud didn't use her as often because he wanted to give his other Pokemon a chance to train. Staryu and Eevee, the only two who won't evolve until he got them a stone, simply grew stronger.

Of course, he knew his work would be cut out for him once he got a Slowpoke, if what Yosuke told him was true. Though he hoped this one didn't eat material.

"So, ever figure out what you saw in the cave?"

Zack recalled Kunsel, putting his ball back with the four others he had on him, having left Sephiroth back in the PC as punishment for having decided to claw him once too often. How the pokemon fit in their balls then those balls could be stored in a computer still baffled him, but he tried not to think about it too much. Of the rest of his team Beautiful, Mimic and Air Strike were looking fit as ever, and even Reno seemed to be happy to be getting stronger.

Zack looked forward to catching what ever it was that he had seen, and since he had only five pokemon on him he could keep the new on with him.

"Still not sure yet, but I am sure of a few things; it was small, about the size of a child's teddy bear, it seemed to be a tan or light brown color, though with the light in there its hard to tell which, and I am sure now that odd sucking sound was coming from where I had seen it." Zack was fairly confident in his observation skills, having been trained in Soldier, and in his own senses.

TO THE CAVE~

[notrlychaotic]

The first day of searching through the cave had been rather fruitless. They got some good training out of it, at least. Staryu got stronger as did Beautiful. But it seemed like there was still no sign of the pokemon Zack swears he saw. The next morning, their last day there, was spent still searching. Cloud had decided to pull out his Ivysaur, Earth Rave, this time. "Find anything yet, Zack?"

[usedmeteorshot]

"No, nothin-" He cut's himself off, giving Cloud a quick hand signal to be quiet. He then point, Cloud should be just able to see it where he is, he is pointing to the side of one of the taller areas in the cave. There, just peaking out from behind it is a small little tan head, with big round ears and a paw covering part of it's face. Zack breaths evenly and deeply, trying to keep himself from getting too excited.
