Michael watched helplessly as his Charmander partner slid backward on the ground on all fours. Being hit with that Tinkaton's hammer did not look pleasant in the slightest. Wincing, he attempted to strategize how to beat the toxic foe.

The Cadet Ranger then realized something. Not only did the Toxic Chains ensnare the hammer and the Pokemon's arms, but thorns covered the surface of the weapon as well. An epiphany occurred.

"Wait," Michael thought, "thorns are plants. They should be weak to fire! Eimyrja! Hit 'em with Inferno!"

Eimyrja shook her head to free herself from her dizziness. Growling, she prepared her fiery attack. "Charrrrr...!"

"Mander!"

A stream of flames billowed forth to engulf the threatening Tinkaton! As Michael theorized, the fires burned away the thorns! As Tinkaton was a Fairy and Steel-Type, the flames did little with the Pokemon themself. However, the fires also managed to burn away the Toxic Chains.

Notes: None

Prompts:
-attack/defend against the TINKATON.

The Ranger Cadet and his Charmander companion hanged onto the soaked ropes of the bridge as a sudden gale threatened to send them to a watery grave below. Tropical rain continued to downpour, each drop slamming into the pair and the Pokemon attempting to escape the horrendous weather as they ran across the slippery bridge. Michael was not only worried for his safety, but for the wellbeing of the Charmander and the flame at the tip of her tail. As much as he wanted to keep her in her Pokeball, Eimyrja refused as she, too, wanted to help.

"This weather's no good!" Michael shouted over the blustery winds. "We'll need to clear it up! Use Sunny Day, Eimyrja!"

Despite being near soaked to the bone, the Charmander gave a confident nod to her human. She bellowed toward the sky above. In moments, the rain subsided and the darkened clouds parted while returning to their normal white color.

The sun's rays shined brightly down upon the area as the weather cleared. Steadily, the two made their way across the bridge and entered the clearing beyond the chasm. Michael and Eimyrja could not believe their eyes.

The legendary Pokemon, Latias, lay hindered by Toxic Chains. Their partner, Latios, frantically hovered over their friend. The pair knew what they had to do. Others who had come to help were targeting the chains themselves. His feelings of whimsy and wonder became overshadowed by the guild and despair he felt for the Legendary.

"Sorry, Latias," Michael pleaded, "but we need to get those chains off of you. Eimyrja! Use Slash to break those chains! Be careful not to hurt them, okay?"

"Char Char!" Eimyrja acknowledged!

The determined fire salamander charged forth to assist her fellow partnered Pokemon. With a mighty slash with glowing claws, she attempted to break the chains that held the Latias down!

"Hey Eimyrja," Michael piped up while the pair watched the Beautifly and Dustox fluttering about. "Wanna hear a joke?"

Nodding and smiling, the Charmander hopped excitedly!

"Okay," Micahel said, grinning ear to ear. "What do you call Bug Pokemon that are only attracted to Miltank?"

"Char...Char?" Eimyrja asked, tilting her head in confusion.

"Butter-free!"

Eimyrja stared blankly at her human for a moment. Then, she felt a tickle in her chest and she started giggling. She finally understood the joke, as corny as it was!

"Thank you, thank you. I'll be here all week. Okay, let's go see if we can catch one of these guys."

There just seemed to bo end to the madness that continued to spread through Hoenn. The word that sprang to Michael's mind was plague. There was just no other way he felt he could rationalize the happenings of the past month. Still, he believed that there was no better time to become a Pokemon Ranger. His whole deal was helping humans and Pokemon alike, so he liked to think the phenomenon of the Toxic Chains would help him prove his worth.

Michael had spent a duration of his time assisting in the effort to subdue aggressive Pokemon and help heal the poisoned victims. Lava Cookies, as he learned, were perfect for healing the poison and confusion of those inflicted by the blight. Each Pokemon felled received a cookie as did their Trainers.

Later that day, Michael began writing his findings to send as a report to both the League and the Rangers of Hoenn. Feeling nauseous hindered its completion, but the Ranger Cadet still saw it through. Any and all information gathered could help end the devastation for good.

Prompts:
-heal/rescue a dizzied townsperson.

Micahel Davis volunteered to help the evacuation effort. He, along with others, made sure to guide the fleeing crowd of people and their Pokemon away from what could be a devastating blast zone. Self-Destruct, on its own, was a move that was only detrimental to the user and its target within a short range. But when paired with the machinery of the abandoned factory, on top of the sheer number of wayward Koffing and Weezing? It was a guaranteed disaster waiting to happen.

Michael and Eimyrja guided the path of pedestrians to safety by way of their light wands. Even in daylight, they were easy to spot. The Cadet turned his head for a moment back to what could end up being Ground Zero. He held concern for other volunteers and League Members taking the threat head-on.

Prompts:
-help evacuate wild pokemon and/or civilians.

Vivid memories of Pokemon horror stories cascaded through Michael's mind. One such terrifying tales told around the campfire that frightened children told of hungry serpents that lurked in the woods. Snake Pokemon, such as Arbok, were rumored to swallow other Pokemon whole. Though it instilled an icy fear into young ones, it served as a cautionary tale. Michael, now an adult, never gave such a thing a second thought.

And now here the Cadet was. Gripped tightly by an intense, tumultuous storm of nauseating emotions, as he and Eimyrja stared down the enormous hooded serpent that blocked their path. The overwhelming fear pumped stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline through his body. Rage engulfed his mind as a burning inferno. Anxiety begged the Ranger to flee and seek help.

Then he witnessed it; a human-shaped wriggling mass, trapped by pounds of flesh and scales in the Arbok's abdomen. At first, he wanted to vomit. The very thought of a person being eaten alive and succumbing to such a horrible fate spurned his Fight or Flight even further. But two new emotions burst forth as Michael remembered why he set out on his Pokemon Journey in the first place; Hope, and determination.

Michael bared his teeth and curled his fingers into tightening fists. He had to save them. Without harming the Arbok, if possible. He forced himself to recognize that the Arbok, like other Pokemon infused with the toxic chains, was not being themself.

"Eimyrja," Michael started, voice dripping with seriousness, "We need to save that person. Aim to knock them out. Fire Fang."

PRISMATIC PENITENTIARY[break]SIGN-UPS

LOCK IN

CHARACTER: Michael Davis [break]
WHICH WARD?: THE WEAKLING WARD[break]
PREFERRED CELLMATE(S): I'd like this opportunity to potentially gain a new roleplay friend![break]
PKMN TEAM (6 MAX): Posted Below[break]
WHY WAS YOUR CHARACTER SORTED INTO THEIR WARD? (OPTIONAL): The Warden could view Michael is weak due to some prominent negative traits. For example, Michael experiences social anxiety every now and again, and will at times consider himself a failure when experiencing setbacks. Maybe the Warden finds it hard to believe that someone with these flaws deserves to be a Ranger.

The Ranger Captain promised to show Michael just what a Sygna Suit could do. So when Shalin Nariya invited him and his Pokemon partners to see her extravagant spectacle, he couldn't say no! The Cadet was more than thrilled to attend the show!

Michael found himself a lovely spot by the park's pond. It was close to the performance area, and Cobalt could enjoy the cool, fresh water. Other onlookers shared the same idea, letting their Water-Type Pokemon have a decent view of the demonstration.

The Cadet and Eimyrja applauded and cheered for their friend as she finished the first half of the entertainment! Cobalt would applaud, too, if only he had fins that could do so. The Seadra did a little dance instead as a display of joy!

This all left Michael to be more curious about Sygna Suits than before. To be so in-sync with one's Pokemon, to perform such amazing feats...Michael had to admit, seeing such a thing in action led him to feeling slightly envious. Maybe, someday, he might find a Sygna Suit in his possession. Though the Cadet reminded himself after a brief tingle of remorse; it didn't matter what fancy suits or gadgets anyone owned, whether they be Dynamax Bands or Mega stones. One's love and respect for their Pokemon would remain just as important and equally special.

The tired but relieved Seadra gave a gentle nod to the Ranger's request. His mouth pressed against the offered Pokeball. The spined seahorse's body glowed before being converted into light blue energy. Its form shifted and contorted before being pulled into the Pokeball.

Michael's brilliant smile threatened to outshine the sun overhead. Eimyrja looked up happily at her Ranger partner because of their success and recruitment of a new teammate.

"I think I'll call you Cobalt," Michael stated while placing the Pokeball onto his belt. Looking about, he noticed the beach was becoming more lively. Even an Octillery and Heliolisk were out and about. Both were Pokemon he liked, but not quite what the Ranger searched for. He kept an ideal team in mind, and he only had so many Pokeballs to spare.

Shalin's inquiry piqued his interest. He looked at her with an inquisitive expression.

"Thank you! And yeah, I'm a Cadet," he answered. "See?" the man's thumb pointed to the Ranger symbol on his cap. "Wait. Weren't you told I'd be meeting you out here?"

The man simply chalked it up to simple confusion. It was nothing to hold a grudge over. Smiling again, he showed an interest in Sharpedo's mention.

"Ah well, doesn't really matter. That's cool, though! Sharpedo are amazing!"
