So.....I'm a trainer now, hu? Finally got my own Pokemon, a friend that won't desert me like all the others did,and some Pokeballs to capture more. But it's best not to think about that; the past is the past. I should focus on the adventures to come, the dangers me and my new partner will have to overcome. Together......
Dreamer wandered down the street, lost in thought. Her dark purple wolf tail, tipped with black, slowly swung back and forth like a pendulum. Her hair had been tied in a ponytail in a vain attempt to tame it, but a few wild strands had already come loose and were blowing about in the light breeze. Following close behind the strange human-if she really was a human, and not some other creature in disguise-was riptide, Dreamer's Totodile.
The pokemon had a mischievous look on it's face as it glanced about, searching for something to bite. A lamp pole? No, too hard. The nearby trash can was to dirty,and the wrapper in the gutter wasn't worth the effort. Suddenly, she caught movement out of the corner of one yellow eye; Dreamer's tail. Perfect! She lunged at her target with a playful growl.
The pain snapped Dreamer out of her daydreaming almost instantly, causing her to give a loud and very canine-like yelp. Unaware that it was her own pokemon doing the attacking, she panicked and began running in circles, all the while screaming loudly. Riptide's released her grip and was sent flying, landing on the pavement close by. Unhurt, the Totodile promptly began laughing, pointing at her trainer with one claw, black and purple fur still caught between her teeth. Dreamer rubbed her sore tail, wolf ears-purple and tipe with black, like her tail-pressed flat against her skull. She growled sofly, more in pain and shock than anything eles.
Maybe this won't be so easy.....

As the pain receded a bit, Dreamer began to survery her surroundings....and didn't like what she saw. Old, crumbling buildings covered in grafiti, trash scattered across the cracked sidewalk, and no signs of another person of pokemon anywhere. She turned in a full cirle, but could find no familiar landmarks, no street signs that might help point her in the right direction.
"Hello!" She yelled down the empty street, but got only echos as a response. Riptide stoped laughing and ran to her trainer's side, hiding be hind her leg nervously. Dreamer scoped to Totodile up in her arms, hugging her close. The pokemon gave no resistance, not even the smallest squeak of complaint; she simply griped her trainer's arms tightly, claws puncturing Dreamer's battered leather coat. The strange human took no notice. Her ears were perked high on her head, searching for any sound that might identify another living creature. Nothing.
I'm on my "grand adventure" for five minutes, She thought, a tiny bit of panic creeping into the back of her mind. And I'm already lost. Next time, I bring the GPS.

There was no response to the girl's outcry, but something was watching. In an alleyway, slinking along the ground, was a black and silver Meowth. It slunk along behind the girl cautiously, not sure what she was, or what she intended to do, but still curious. The saying 'curiousity killed the cat' was probably the farthest thing from its mind at the moment. It snuck ever closer, attempting to avoid detection. The little Meowth was only level five, easily defeated if it wasn't careful. And being so young, it didn't know well enough to be cautious in situations such as theses.

The hairs on the back of Dreamer's neck started to stand up: she was being watched. She spun around with surpising speed, nearly dropping Riptide in the process, and spotted the Meowth in the shadows. A wild pokemon, and she wasn't even out of town! Maybe she had a bit of luck after all. She quickly reached for one of the pokeballs in her pocket, grinning like a fool. As Riptide struggled out of her arms and landed on the pavment next to her, staring at the new arrival with interest, Dreamer wispered softly.
"Your mine." she said, throwing the pokeball.

The Meowth's eyes suddenly widened as the girl it had been following spun around. The girl threw somethings small and round and it, and before it knew what was happening, it felt itself sucked into a small, closed space. The Meowth faught valiently against its new bonds, and, luckily, managed to free itself. It was still at full strength after all. It burst out of the Pokeball, breaking it and ruining it for future use. Enraged at being so randomly assaulted, it launched itself at the first thing it saw, the Totodile in the girl's arms, with the full intent to scratch it to oblivion and back again.

Dreamer cursed loudly as the wild pokemon pounced on Riptide. What had all the pokemon guide book told her? WEAKEN the target first! Gah, she was such a fool! Squeals of pain cut through her thoughts; her Totodile, caught by surprize, was at the mercy of her attacker's sharp claws. The sound forced the girl into action. With a canine-like snarl, she kicked at the Meowth with all her strength.

The Meowth thought it was homefree when it felt its claws sink into the Totodile, but no such luck. It cried out sharply as the Totodile's feet slammed into her jaw and sent her flying. Yeowch! This had stopped being a curious venture a long time ago. Hissing wildly, eyes wide with fright, the Meowth did the only thing it could; it launched itself back towards the Totodile to continue scratching her.

Dreamer's kick met mid-air as her Totodile's kick sent the Meowth flying backwards. Now free of the weight on her chest, Riptide lept to her feet and snarled at the wild pokemon. Rather than randomly throwing another pokeball, Dreamer decided it would be best to use some common sense.
"Riptide, use Rage!" She yelled, and her pokemon attacked with a loud cry of "To-di!". With any luck, the move would be sucessfull.

The Meowth's eyes widened as instead of dodging or merely being hit, the Totodile charged her first into its attack and slammed it in the face again. Once again, the hapless Meowth flew backwards and landed on its back. This time, instead of getting back up, it merely lay there... twitching.

"Great job Riptide!" Dreamer called happily, pulling another pokeball from her pocket. The now motionless Meowth would be an easy catch. The girl's Totodile gave a triumphant "To-ti!" and scampered to her trainer's side,egar to see what would happen next. "Resistance is futile." Dreamer murmered, then threw the pokeball at the Meowth. Her heart seemed to stop as she waited.......

The Meowth let out a final weak cry as it was sucked back into a Pokeball, but this time, it was far too weak to struggle. This is the end of the line, it thought to itself. I guess curiousity did kill the cat...
The Pokeball wiggled once... twice... three times... Then was still. The Meowth was successfully captured, much to its chagrim.

There were a few seconds after the pokeball had stoped moving when everything was still,silent.....Then Dreamer let out a loud, high-pitched squee of joy. Dashing forward, she picked up the still-warm pokeball and stared at it, a dopey smile on her face. The Meowth was her's; she'd done it! She promply began dancing,Riptide running in cirles around her. Suddenly, the strange girl froze, eyes on the horizon. There it was, clear as day; the top of the pokemon center, glinting in the sunlight.
"We're outta here Riptide!" Dreamer said, walking in the direction of the steel rooftop. Her pokemon cried "To-di!",as if in agreement, and followed. Maybe this adventure had a chance of sucess after all!

Somewhere among the shadows Konokou walked. Her wolf paws for feet shuffling across the ground. People glanced at her as she walked. I'm so impatient, she thought. Suddenly something caught her, pulling her shirt. Konokou whirled around with her claws desperate to hit it. She heard her razor sharp claws scratch against something, then it was gone. Konokou stood in the middle of town, wondering how she got there. One look from some guy made her throw down her baseball cap, exposing her ears. Then she headed back towards the Lab.
