[attr="class","wildnote"] WHAT WILL YOU DO?

It was little Yazmin who discovered the Leavanny, as she almost jumped right into it. What she thought was a tall stalk of grass stood up straight in front of her, and the Pichu startled and fell back on her tail. A stray line of electricity zapped out and hit the Leavanny, burning a dark mark on one of it’s leafy leg pauldrons. Both Pokemon stared at each other for a moment, then jumped into action, Yazmin flailing around in shame and the Leavanny fanning out the small flume of smoke billowing off the burn mark.

“You okay over here?” CJ asked, approaching with Kinnick and Agate. Yazmin had begun to cry, and the Leavanny was making soothing noises and brushing the Pichu’s soft head with his leaves to try and calm her down.

CJ made a tsking noise and picked the baby Pokemon up, cradling her in their arms. The Leavanny sank, looking miserable. “It’s okay,” CJ said, “the only one who got hurt was you.” With a few bounces and some smooches, Yazmin was back to normal, and CJ’s three Electric-types bounded off into the grass again.

The Leavanny stood next to CJ and watched them run. Then, it tapped them gently with a leaf, and gestured to their Pokemon with an excited gesture.

“You… want to come with us?” CJ asked, venturing a guess. The Leavanny cried out and clapped it’s leaves together. CJ grinned. “Sure, that could be arranged.” They held out a Pokeball and the Leavanny placed a leaf overtop of it. A moment later and they swirled into the sphere as a beam of light; the clasp flashed red once, getting warm, then it fell still.

CJ gave the Pokeball a toss and the Leavanny burst back out with an excited cry, before heading off to pal around with CJ’s original Pokemon.
