'Fate' was pretty much what I was leaving it to, being less about 'stumbled upon' and more about 'something... Unique? that drew his attention.'But like Chim said, it's all about which group. More or less looking for something that would constitute 'fate,' like getting hit face first by a flying Noibat, something like that would make Robert see it as a reason to catch it.

@Dobby: Sounds like Lancelot is smart enough to think it deserves the reward system. @K_H: Just as long as Zoro doesn't morph into 'references,' It probably won't be going too far. Also, I'm questioning whether I should have 'fate' tell Robert to catch a Gible or a Noibat. Any opinions?

Robert had just woken up from what he planned to be nap that would span the whole bus ride. In retrospect, Robert questioned why he packed so light, realizing that it was more or less his decision to pack as light as he did to the Academy, thinking he wouldn't have this kind of downtime. In response, he released Kiai out onto his lap, keeping it to just the Riolu as he knew Voltage would do something... unresponsible if left alone without attention, and looked out the window while scratching Riolu's head.

@Exlink: Your lucky Nintendo makes cameos in it's own games. Let's just call the actual Pokemon games 'Historical Simulations,' if it ever comes up. Also, I feel like Robert was the only one to bring 'only the essentials' with him. No gameplay for Robert.

After finishing the food, Robert had realize how much time they had left, being about 15 minutes at that point. After dashing out of the dorms, hoping Kenny was right behind him, Robert ran straight to his classes, being able to make it just in time.

Okay, I'll just leave it as is then.Edit: Eh, impulse wanted me to finish it up and 'solidify' it.

@Chim Should it just be assumed that Robert and Kenny got to class on time, or should I post something stating that. I'm only reluctant on the second one because I posted lasted in the 'conversation.'

Okay, so Chimchain invited me over to Vermillion. I will do whatever I can to help Vermillion Succeed. I'll go ahead and update my 'Alliance:___ ' as soon as I'm home, since I don't understand how to use it on the phone version. Edit: Okay, done and done.

Let us all disband in hopes that, when/if PZA is reset, we will meet again and learn from our mistakes. *Insert "That really sad song from the Incredible Hulk" here.* Edit: "

Oh well. 1

@Bfroger: 1) Interesting use of Thunder Wave 2) I'm quite confused as to how you turned the Pokemon TV series into a Spanish Soap Opera, but whatever. 3) How do you think Henry will react to the TV? Will he think straight to Shun? Also, by any chance, do souls and Aura's intertwine? If not, than even Kiai might not know why Robert would be getting weaker when Lucifer eventually tries tasting his soul. Heck, maybe when that happens eventually, Robert can make a mental joke about the 'feelings that are linked to exhaustion.'

From that link of coincidence, Robert realized that he had overlooked any hints of origin over the last few weeks, either that or it just didn't come up until now. "Oh, your from Unova? The place sounds interesting enough, atleast from how Brawly described it whenever he came back from the PWT in, Driftveil city I believe. As for me, I'm from Hoenn, though you've probably already known that, being how I seem to bring up alot of things that relate to my home town of Dewford."

After awhile of cooking, the sushi was finally finished. After setting the bowls for Kiai, Voltage, Zoro and Eve down on the floor, Robert remembered how Ryu had become a Lucario just earlier today, and had to question if it'd even be okay to eat out of a bowl that way now. Eventually, he decided to clear off the end-table and allow Ryu to eat like that, at least for now. Once that little 'questioning' was taken care of, he released Kiai and Voltage out to their bowls as usual, and signaled Kenny to grab whatever he'd like, as Robert was following his example and grabbing 3 of both kind, enjoying his hungered labors.

While listening to Kenny's response, Robert returned Kiai and Voltage for a well deserved rest, at least until the food was gotten. "Okay then, sushi it is. Go ahead and go to the dorm, I'll swing by the store for the ingredients." And with that, Robert headed straight from there to the store, grabbing the obvious Rice, Magikarp meat, as well as a hunk of Slowpoke tail to use as a 'sweeter' sushi option. After paying for all the food, Robert went rapidly towards the dorms, partially from not knowing the time they had before class, making sure they'd be able to enjoy the food without scarfing it down, but mostly from his stomach, which would probably make them want to scarf the first few bites anyways. ------ (K_H, go ahead and start off any 'lunch interactions' you want to get through, if any, by saying that Robert finished the food 'eventually.' Apart from whatever Kenny would say/do, Robert would probably be focused solely on the eating.)

"Oh, lunch. Yeah, forgot about that a little bit. Guess my stomache hasn't caught up to me yet..." Just then, his stomache started growling. "Right on cue it seems. If you want, I can cook us up something simple, maybe Sushi or Riceballs,..." Just then his stomache growled even louder, feeling it was being taunted by words of food. "...or we could just go to the cafeteria and eat there." (Your choice K_H. I'm just wondering if we'll get 'intercepted' in either situations.)

The thought of what you said in the spoiler actually happening scares me a lot. Please don't give Ame ideas... You think that'd be a bad thing? Think about it really. Apply how Burning and 'Corrosive' Field help out so much with Noel. Now imagine that for so many other Battles. Using 'The Darkness,' on Radomus, spreading Swamp terrain on Charolette. Along with that, thought they could just as easily put their own fields back up, likely more limited form now, they'd only have three other moves on that Poke. The possible strategies are endless.

Well, that was a decent training session for Robert. New ideas for self workouts (Appart from normal stretches, jogging, and Meditation), as well as setting in motion some combos that came to mind, Shining Stars and Flash Palm(Because of the glowy trail coming from Quick attack), and throwing in a bit of Pokedex meaning. @Commander: I just can't understand why Henry would go through with any 'trading away,' but we'll just have to see it. And if it isn't an OC... Let's just say Robert would be willing to venture out into the forest to find where ever a Skitty is, and catch it just to be able to look over Zuko. Just an idea. Edit: Wait, don't want to spoil anything, but does the 'trade' result from pity?

After Kenny had headed up, Robert went over to lift some weights. Around ten minutes later, Robert decided to go upstairs to see if Kenny found anything good. Once he got up there, he found Kenny working on his 'Pokemon's training.' Seeing that, Robert felt himself obliged to do the same. Robert ended up grabbing a Power Bracer and handed it to Kiai. "Okay buddy, how bout we work on your training? Use Quick Attack on that Punching Bag." Once he pointed in the direction of the bag, Kiai took a stance and jumped forward into a Quick Attack. After 5 more Quick Attacks, Robert had Kiai switch to Force Palms. After a while, Robert came up with a decent combo. "Kiai, use Quick Attack, once you pick up enough speed, switch to Force Palm." After about 6 tries, either pulling the Force Palm out to quick or to slow, Kiai finally got a good timing on the combo and Hit the Force Palm with the speed of a Quick Attack. "Good job, Kiai! Now try it again." After a couple more successful attempts, Robert felt that they had a good cemented timing with that, atleast for now. At said time, he signal'd Kiai over, gave him a happy pat on the head for the success, and turned to release Voltage. In a happy 'Bibi,' he looked around where they were, and had spotted a sign by a room that seemed to say 'Electric.' He walked in to see the specially designed room, seeming to be built just for electric types. "Well that's a good thing. It's doubt worthy that working on Shock Wave would be a good idea near normal equipment. Okay, Voltage, I want you to try and fire some Shock Waves at those targets over there." After the signal, Voltage whirled his arms and set a Shock Wave towards the target, having the residual electricity be absorbed by some machine. Robert had continued the commands, changing the target every so often, and decided to work on another move while in there. "Okay Voltage, try using Swift on the targets now." After saying so, the Elekid did the same task with the Swifts. Realizing how they were the only special moves Voltage had, he came up with a combination similar to the one earlier. "Okay Voltage, I want to try something out. Start off by charging up a Shock Wave, but instead of releasing it, try to charge a Swift with it. Sound like a plan?" After an excited nod, Voltage started to charge up a Shock Wave, doing his best to contain the electricity, he started to release the Swift stars and put whatever electricity he had held in to the Swift, and launched the Stars. While it was understandable that he had no idea yet how to do the combination, the was something else about it that was prevalent, as Robert remembered that the Pokedex stated how Elekids can't easily store their electricity. "Okay Voltage, how about this. Don't do the moves one at a time, but charge the electricity into the Swift as you go okay?" After stating that, Voltage felt a need to prove that he could do it, as a symbol of self pride. After a while, Voltage got the got the charging of the stars good, but they ended up emitting so many sparks along the way that the Electricaly charge left when hitting the target seemed minimal. Voltage noticed it himself, and got a sneer-esque grin on his face, trying to be happy with what he did instead of what he could've done. "It's okay Voltage, we only just came up with this combo, you'll get it eventually." Giving Voltage an appreciative pet, Robert realized how he forgot about 'Static,' and got a decent shock from it. He picked himself up, walked out of the electric room, and headed over to where Kenny was. "So, you got any self training you wanna do while we're here? Weights? Exercise Bike? Or did you have your fill today?" --------------------------- Ideal combos made: Kiai: Flash Palm (Speedy launch of Quick Attack + Force Palm) Voltage: Shock Stars (Shock Wave powered Swift; electrically charged Swift)

@Commander: You do realize that Henry would be seen as heartless to trade away Zuko, especially from what you told us about the backstory. If you have to, the Ability capsule is Canon, so why wouldn't you go with that. Or was that just a brain fart?

Just entering the Training Building, Robert was extremely surprised. The closest the Dewford's gym had to this place was the 'physical' equipment, which was easily out-classed by what was just by what could be seen from the area that he could see first off. "Well, this place is in a league of it's own. Anything specific you wanna look for? If not, then I'm probably look for something standard for now."

Very interesting field affects. That gives me an idea... Anyway, great challenges await.

The description of the training facility is amazing. Pretty sure that, apart from possibly having some 'focus point' training on Voltage's Shock Wave, I'll most likely work with the 'physical' training. I say 'focus point' training because, even though Shock Wave is one of those 'always hits' moves Elekid learns by level up, it should probably be considered that the reason it 'always hits' is because it goes into a 'radial attack,' and focusing it to the target should allow for the power to be less dispersed. Edit: Also, I'm probably going to reference the 'ORAS Dewford Gym design' in comparison to how amazing the Training facility is.
