this time lurantis was deciding to take a stroll through the route with its trainer. the cold breeze making it shiver as it rubbed its blades together for warmth. "don't start a fire now." joked shinra who received a glare from the grass type, all he did in return was grin back at it. there was something rather soothing about taking a quiet stroll, the lights on the streetlamps. the cool air. the snowball coming right at his face-wait what?

his face suddenly was covered in snow as the sound of laughter pierced the silence. lurantis was the first to spot the culprit, a purplish pokemon who was rolling and padding snow into another ball and throw it in their direction, hitting shinra square in the chest. "oh a wise guy eh? well two can play at that!" he ran a few feet with his hand digging into the ground and rolling up his own snowball and threw it straight at the tyrogue's head. instead of purple the pokemon's skin changed to red as now it was ON.

lurantis just sighed and shook her head as she watched her trainer and this random stray pokemon get into a snowball fight of all things. not wanting to waste time with this she made her way to the tyrogue's side silently and without notice, raised her blades up, and delivered a swift x-scissors to its head, knocking it out cold and giving her trainer a most intensive glare. shinra could only rub the back of his head and raise a hand in defense at the display of ferocity he witnessed. "Ok ok we're going...sheesh way to be a buzzkill."

+skipping tyrogue!

watching the flying ice type delibird that he came across recently flap around the air was somewhat entertaining. after helping one out during a job he was kind of taking a liking to the species. he doubt that the guy would see a whole lot of use however, he didn't seem to be the battling type and wasn't meshing well with the team. maybe he could find it a good home?

as he watched it flap its wings shinra began to feel a bit drowsy, his eyes constantly closing as he leaned against a tree, not noticing the moving branches as something was staring him down from above. then it struck, a monkey with a flaming head jumped onto shinra, waking him up with a start as it reached down to his pockets. "hey! get off!" he screamed, alerting his delibird who came swooping down at the sight of its trainer in trouble! well that was the plan...until a kick from the monkey pokemon sent it flying in the opposite direction.

"don't be so handsy!" the urge to fight was a strong one, so strong that it overrode shinra's common sense as he took notice of the tail lightly slapping him in the face and grabbed it with his teeth. the infernape did not appreciate having its tail bitten by a human! however shinra didn't care what it thought as he managed to get his arms around the pokemon and suplex it into the snowy ground, extinguishing its flame as it laid in the dirt in a daze.

"that's what you get! but...i like yer style..." shinra muttered under his breath as his delibird returned looking upset at how it was treated and kicked the unconscious monkey in its bum. as for shinra, he took out a pokeball and gently lobbed it onto the monkey, watching it disappear inside.

catching infernape!
