When the boy woke up, he felt itchy. He was covered in dust, and had twigs in his hair. He was wearing a tan shirt with a brown jacket, and brown jeans with tan trainers.
Whoever this boy was, he was clearly co-ordinated.
But who WAS he?
The boy got up.
He couldn't remember much.
In fact he couldn't remember anything. Save that forests were bad.
But how did he know that?
The boy stood up, and looked around for any sign, or identity. He looked at his bag. A satchel. Tan and Brown of course. There, stitched in was a name.
Of course, this must be a designer's name, but the boy couldn't remember what designers were, or why their name would be etched on his bag.
Therefore, he must be called "Sander"
His hand went instinctively to his pocket, almost as though reaching for a small spherical object. Or maybe two.
For some reason, Sander wished there were three, although he couldn't quite place why. Maybe they were pokemon. Yes, pokemon. He remembered something called pokemon.
He looked into his bag for any other clues. He pulled out his pokedex.
"What an odd contraption," said Sander, eyeing it carefully.
He flipped it open, and it replayed the last page opened.
"POKEDEX: Main Page: Pokemon are creatures that exist alongside humans. They often have elemental powers and can be friend or foe."
Sander had the strangest feeling that he had friend pokemon once, but now he didn't. And he felt afraid that all the other pokemon here were foe...
---------------------------------------------
Tempeste swooped down the second she saw Nero fall.
<NERO! NERO!!! NERO! WHERE ARE YOU?!>
Fearing the worst, she zoomed from grove to grove, searching for the lost trainer.
She came across something that scared her to bits.
It was Clio's pokeball.
She nudged it open, and the Vulpix playfully jumped out.
<YAY! Where's my pack! It's gonna be gre->
She paused.
She whimpered.
She trembled.
<Where's Nero? Where are WE? What are we going to do?>
Tems put a cottony wing around her close friend.
<He's lost, he fell into the Berry Forest, which is where we are now. We're going to find him. He fell from pretty high, so he could be hurt, or unconscious or even...>
She stopped. She couldn't bring herself to say it.
And she didn't have to.
What if there was not hope? What if?
She sighed, and flew into a branch. Hoping to catch sight of him. No luck.
She returned to Clio. She put the pokeball in her feathers. A hold item. She had it cleverly concealed somewhere in her feathers. It was safe.
<Come on,> she said. <We'd better start looking.>
-----------------
OoC
Nero's got amnesia.
As the catchphrase goes...
Oh dear.

A venonat poked it's head out from inside a huge, fallen, hollow log.
<Looking for someone? Maybe I can help.> It said, clicking it's fangs together. For some reason, it didn't seem to be afraid of bird pokemon. |

((Clio and Tems are with Oink atm, I'm just going to roleplay as if the venonat spoke to Sander. If you don't want me to, just say))
Sander heard a small, tinny voice come from somewhere. Half-excited, half-terrified, he explored the old, mouldy log it had come from. When a large purple puffball came out, he stepped back in horror. He grabbed a stick, ready to strike, if need be...
"What are you?"
The pokedex went off, rattling off it's pre-recorded message about the creature in front of him. He looked at the tiny flip screen, and compared the picture to the thing that had jumped out of a log. The same, buggy red eyes, the same shaggy purple coat, the same long, thin antennae. He was certain.
The pokedex went off again;
VENONAT: THE INSECT POKEMON : Lives in the shadows of tall trees where it eats bugs. It is attracted by light at night.
Sander sighed in relief. It only ate bugs, meaning that he was safe. It was when the Venonat posed the question, that Sander's heart began to race again.
<Looking for someone?> It had said. <Maybe I can help!>
Pokemon could talk!
For some reason, Sander was used to this, although he knew that pokemon didn't talk to everyone. He couldn't remember HOW he knew. Maybe he'd met someone along the way, who couldn't talk to their pokemon. For some reason, a rainbow magikarp swam inexplicably across his mind.
Sander turned to address the Venonat.
"Will you help me? Please? I -" He paused. Would the Venonat believe him? It was his only chance anyhow... "I'm lost, and I can't really remember who I am..."
He went back to his satchel and brought all of his belongings to his new friend. He made sure to throw the stick far away.
"I'm not sure if you've seen any of this stuff, but if you can help me find where I am, or where I'm from, or where-" Sander's hand moved to his belt. Again, reaching for two, wishing for three. "Or where my pokemon are..." Sander rummaged through his pokedex, and it played another page.
PARTY INFORMATION:
TEMPESTE - SWABLU - MISSING
CLIODNA - VULPIX - MISSING
Sander jumped up excitedly, "See! I do have friendly pokemon! But they must be lost too! Oh, please, will you help me find them? Venonat? Please?"
Sander looked pleadingly at the pokemon. Venonat was his last hope.

<Can't remember who you are?> the Venonat asked, its antennaes bobbing from side to side, <But you are obviously yourself, for nothing could be more obvious than that. If you were someone else, it would be quite strange, now wouldn't it? Unless of course, that someone else was you, in which case I suppose you could be both at once. Or maybe you are someone else and that someone else is not here.> The pokemon paused to contemplate what it had said. The pokemon nodded.
<Okay, I shall help you to find your pokemon friends. Perhaps they will understand who the someone else you have become is.> The pokemon soared into the sky. <Follow me! I know this forest like the back of my wing!> Venonat looked back as if to observe the back of its wing, but failed miserably. Not allowing this to bring discouragement, the pokemon flew onwards. <I'm sure we'll find them soon.> |

Sander packed up his belongings and followed the Venonat down the road. To his right, he could hear a scuffle. He made sure to stay as far away as possible...
Which is a shame, since if he'd been a little closer, he would have seen Cliodna and Tempeste, standing there with a strange girl...
Nero carried on along the path, brushing twigs out of his hair. He hopped over logs and roots, continuing on, past an odd tree that made wierd growling noises, past numerous groves and crossings, following the Venonat...
"Do you even know where you're going?"

The Venonat nodded then spyed the two pokemon and one human girl
<hey! I think I see them!> the Venonat called signaling with its wing and leading him toward the three
< I hope this is them, then you can find out who the someone else is!> it told him happly.

"Great!" said Nero, walking slowly towards the three of them. Only thing is, there was some sort of buggy war going on.
Well, maybe the Venonat would help him.
"Hey, uh, Venonat, if, I'm attacked by ... bad pokemon, will you help me?"
He looked at the Purple Fuzzball, and then tripped over himself, landing headfirst into the mud.
Oh dear

the Venonat landed beside him <eww...you ok?that doesn't look like fun> it stated.
just then a Sentret popped up out of the bushes <GAH!!!!!> it screamed <look what you've done!>
when they looked the object Sander had tripped over was what used to be the Sentret's nest in making
<not good> Venonat said
< you distroyed it!You'll pay for that! that took me forever!> the Sentret sent up a spray of sand, it's sandattack!
venonat used Supersonic to confuse the Sentret <run!> Venonat yelled

OoC: I like it!
A pokemon was fighting for him.
That seemed vaguely familiar to Sander...
And then... It began to come back to him.
Well, some of it.
He... he was in a route, at night, fighting a canine pokemon.
But he couldn't see the pokemon he was fighting with. It's almost like it's gone forever...
Oh dear... Sander turned back. The Venonat was still attacking the Sentret. He thought of three bunny pokemon, and his vulpix, Cliodna, her name was, and she was attacking these bunny pokemon. Then, she thought of his Swablu, striking a Marill...
They were looking for him.
Somewhere out there, they'd be saying,
"Nero? Where are you?"
Heh, Nero.
Sander's eyes widened.
"Venonat! That must be my name! It's Nero!"
He turned, waiting desperately for his new friend.

Venonat crashed though the trees <Nero huh? I like it so have you found that someone who your looking for? this nero? or are you looking for yourself and found it. orrrrrr...> Venonat stopped and heard some rusteling in the buches and turned around
<get them!> a group of about 4 sentret burst into the clearing they were at.
<gah! run nero, human person..thingy ..who ever you are RUN!> with another supersonic attack Venonat ran off with him with the pokemon following.

Nero looked at the Venonat,
He was special. He wouldn't abandon me
He ran as fast as he could, then stopped.
"Wait a second!" he said, "If I'm a trainer, then why the heck am I running?"
He turned to face the four sentret, no longer afraid.
Nero Alby was back.
"Right then, Venonat, I don't have a clue what your moves are, but I know you know Supersonic. So, use that on the Sentret to the left, then climb the tree, and finish them off with more Supersonics..."
Nero Alby was definitely back.
"And to you, Sentrets, listen up.
My name is Nero Alby.
I'm going to stop you, and then I'm going to find
Cliodna and Tempeste.
And then, I'm going to find him.
Because I know he's out there.
I know Ninurta's out there!"
Nero Alby could not be anymore back.
"But..." he paused, "Who's Nin?" he asked Venonat
Oh dear. Maybe Nero Alby isn't all that back... [/sub] |

Venonat nodded and used Supersonic <I know tackel and disable too!> the venonat told him rocketing up the tree and hitting the Sentrets with supersonic's. three of the four were now stumbeling around tackeling trees and falling down. the last one jumped up to tackle Venonat and hit it off the tree. <agh!> Vanonat said in suprise as it fell. |

Nero had been pondering who Nin was, so he didn't see the Venonat fall. He ran forward to catch the bug pokemon.
"That's it! Now, then... Use Disable on the one that knocked you down!"
In the meantime, Nero picked up the biggest stick he could find...
He could remember it all now. He'd left the Lapras Shrine, and he had fallen into the woods from Tems.
So she was here too..
He tapped the stick against the bark of the trees..
"Clio! Tempeste!" He cried.
He thought about them
Tempeste was Level 17 and Clio was Level 10...
He needed a third pokemon.
He didn't know why, but he did.
Maybe that's what Nin was...
Maybe Nin was his third pokemon...
Maybe...

the venonat obeyed and used disable, it hit the sentret head on, while the others were throwing sand up everywhere still confused,
Venonat couldn't see <remembering more?> the venonat asked hearing him call out names
<thats good...right?>

Ooc: Umm... it should know Foresight...
BiC:
"Yeah," said Nero. "I... I guess..."
He kept reaching for a third pokemon.
Well. It was time to get a third pokemon..
"Venonat? Will you come with me?" said Nero, holding up a pokeball.

"Great!" said Nero. "Well, then you need a name."
He paused thinking up a suitable name.
"I know! Silvanus! or Sil for short! It'll be great"
Sil bounced excitedly!
<Yay! I'm glad that I've got a name. Or maybe my name's glad it's got a me! Or maybe, both!>
Oh dear, Sil was a little loopy.
It must be all the mushrooms...
<Hey! I saw two pokemon a while back, remember, near the bug fight! I can show you if you like...>
Nero and Sil began to head back up the road...
OoC: Tems and Clio are with Oink, so I'll stay here for a bit, maybe one more encounter, and then I'll join them

Up ahead, a Scyther was being attacked by a whole group of Zubat. The bug pokemon was slashing around, but there were too many attackers. One of her blades was tucked to her chest. The pokemon seemed to be cradling something, perhaps an item of some sort. Whatever it was, she didn't want the Zubats to have it. And they seemed equally determined to relieve her of it. |

Post by Nishrocks on May 31, 2008 15:37:32 GMT
"Hey!" cried Nero once he saw the Scyther.
This was harrassment. Clearly, a Scyther had taken a wrong turn, and was now being attacked by a Zubat gang.
Sil got ready to attack.
"No need," said Nero.
He bounded onto a log, pulled a stick, and whacked one of the Zubats with it.

Post by PBK on May 31, 2008 15:43:00 GMT
The Zubat was smacked down to the ground and fainted.
Nero gained a level!
((jk.))
However there were still many of the Zubat's left. More were coming from all around. They flocked around Nero and the Scyther in such a thick cloud that it was impossible to see through. Occasionally, a bit of green could be seen where the Scyther was still trying to fend off the smaller pokemon. |

Post by Nishrocks on May 31, 2008 15:49:20 GMT
Nero was beginning to get agitated...
There had to be a way to save the Scyther....
"Silvanus, come on! Show me what you got! Use a Supersonic at the cloud.."
The venonat launched itself at a tree, releasing the waves, oscillating and eventually reaching the mass of Zubat.
Nero looked at the pokemon.
It was special. He knew Sil would help him in anyway. And Nero was determined to help Sil back...
No
NoNoNo! You don't get too close.
Ever...
But.... Silvanus is special... |

Post by PBK on May 31, 2008 16:09:13 GMT
Unfortunately, the attack didn't seem to have any sort of affect on the pokemon. Or perhaps the whole place was in such a state of confusion that it was impossible to separate the confused Zubats from those who were not. Either way, the situation didn't seem to change much.
Then, the pokemon started to thin out, left to the skies, creating a strange sort of moving cloud. But they had taken the bug pokemon with them. One could barely see the glint of green in the sky. As the pokemon flew away, something dropped from the sky, perhaps the thing that the Scyther had been protecting so closely. |

Nero now held a pint-sized Scyther in his hands. The petite pokemon was fainted from its fall from the sky. It was barely breathing and badly bruised. Now let me say it:
Oh dear. |

Post by Nishrocks on May 31, 2008 16:22:42 GMT
"BABYSNATCHERS!" yelled Nero in fury at the cloud moving away...
Now there was trouble...
If he went to heal the scyther, he'd lose Tems and Clio for good...
If he stayed.... Then...
Oh dear.
Oh dear.
Oh dear.
And, even if Nero DID heal it, would he be able to get it back?
Oh dear
Oh dear
He made his decision...
"Sil, keep an eye out, let me know where they are.."
He turned...
"I'm going to find Tems."
