Week 2.
WEEK 2. The new week begins with new surroundings. The city you've been growing accustomed to over the past week is now well behind you as you set out on your journey proper; the terrain still seems rocky and steep here as you move downhill and to the south, dotted here and there with small ponds to the east and rocky outcroppings that you can climb on to the west. There are also large expanses of tall grass here, and the entire route is flanked with tall trees leading off into the forest a short ways. You're more than welcome to explore; just don't stray too far from the group - you wouldn't want to be left behind out here, for any reason. Wild Pokémon are abundant here, as anyone venturing into the tall grass will discover; they aren't inclined to attack you, however, simply watching with dull, dead eyes as you stumble through the area they've come to call home. The trip is difficult, and it's a lot of walking, but it's not unmanageable; fortunately enough, the route you're on should lead you directly to Valor Lakefront, assuming there are no complications along the way. From Thursday and beyond, the route takes a sharp turn west; in front of you lies what's clearly the ocean, large rocks jutting out just offshore tempering the waves. It's safe to go in the water if you so choose - assuming you can swim, that is - and the forested terrain has given way to a large beach with patches of tall grass here and there. Interestingly, there's a house located on the beach; whether it's inhabited or not is difficult to tell. Of course, exploring slightly north of the beach will reveal a path. Maybe it leads somewhere important... POKEMON AVAILABLE: NEAR WATER SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY | FRIDAY [OOC: Welcome to week two of Azume; feel free to make as many top levels as you'd like and tag out to other characters! This post is for all of your interactions this week... at least until the weekend. Don't forget that a write-up is due next weekend!] |

[ Because wow no??? She looks a little hurriedly up at the scene of the Beldum being coiled down the mouth of the Lickitung. It's a surprisingly bulky pink thing, it does at least get the hunk of metal into it's mouth. Wow. ]
no subject
He's made of metal, but okay. Cat Janet, let's do that thing we've been practicing.
[The Purrloin trots up obediently. He leans down, picks her up, and
just sort of throws her at the Lickitung's head like a fastball, holy shit]
Scratch it!
no subject
[ But hey, I mean.
It's a distracted giant blob of pink. Unless Michael's aim sucks, it's pretty hard to miss it. ]
no subject
[which is not an answer, tbh, but she seems to be clawing at the Lickitung's head just fine so apparently she's not all that shaken up]
no subject
[ Particularly given the distance the rock the Lickitung was on. But okay, it has a cat on its head. That's sure a thing.
...
...
Oh, it knows! It's going to try to keep the Beldum in its mouth and curl up into a ball, a Defense Curl. ]
no subject
Go for the eyes!
[Assuming it can’t in fact curl up all the way with a Beldum in its tongue.]
no subject
[ And it can't! the position is kinda awkward, actually so yeah dude like... that was its eyes? That hurts?
It hurts enough it kind of rocks here in place, as if to try to dislodge the cat ]
no subject
[Though without new orders for this situation, Cat Janet is just gonna try to hold the fuck on]
no subject
[ That said.
Rock, rock, we're sort of just like rocking in place there to try to dislodge a cat ]
no subject
[Is Michael gonna return his attention to telling his soulless cat what to do, or...]
Oh, uh...that thing does not care about being scratched in the face. Bite its nose or something, I don't know.
no subject
Maybe it should use Knock Off on it??? That's sure a thing it's doing, spitting out the Beldum and then swatting the cat with its tongue ]
It does appear to be quite sturdy...
no subject
[Her normal routine is evidently spamming Double Team and Sand Attack to just make things real difficult on the opponent]
no subject
Even so... but thank you for helping me to rescue Miphanus!
no subject
[.....]
Oh, just come back here. [He calls Cat Janet back to the ball, because fighting the horrible tongue monster is no longer worth it.]
no subject
It's bulk and resilience are impressive. If they really end up having to fight...?
Well, she'll just linger near here a bit more, maybe. ]
I'll have to wash them off now!
