National Park|Morning (13)

Gabbo and turned to Raz and Uteki crushing the Oddish under his girth. He lightly bopped Uteki's nose and growled. "Water Gun squeaker not Scald" Gabbo said before taking a look around the park. The grass that hide Bug Pokemon and others was burned away in favor of tents. Bodies littered the grounds. Humans, the Pokemon who tried to protect them and the infected that sought only to destroy them. Gabbo shook his head seeing the mess. It almost sickened him to think he could become one of those monsters... He bared his blunt teeth at the thought. Abominations... Beasts... Gabbo would eradicate them all before it was over. He moved about the tents and death. He saw a human laying among a pack of those damned Houndour. The human had a gaping wound in its neck possibly from the hounds' death dealing fangs. Gabbo whispered a silent prayer to Suicune and Lugia before putting the man in a respectful death pose. He only wished he hadn't... Under this human were Pokemon eggs. "He died trying to save them... Chikorita... Totodile... Cyndaquil" Gabbo said in a hushed tone.

He tilted his head to the side and looked back to Raz. "Say Raz this region starts with Chikorita, Cyndaquil and Totodile right" Gabbo asked suddenly having a weird feeling in his gut...

Uteki clapped his paws before washing Raz off with Water Gun and crawling after Gab-Gab. He crawled around the dead bodies before grabbing Gab-Gab's tail and sitting on his back. The scary red eyed Pokemon did all this. Uteki was now much more wary of them since they had even killed all the human creatures. He knew humans had those magic sticks that launched rocks at them so fast it cut them. How did the smelly Pokemon beat those magic sticks?

National Park|Morning (14)

Gabbo blinked. He had never heard of this Professor Elm... Gabbo was given away by a Professor Birch. He rolled the other two eggs to a warm yet hidden spot where they could hatch and maybe live in a death free world. Gabbo dug around finding a messenger bag and some sewing tools. Raz didn't understand that egg could fall out and turn into an omelet pretty easily in that string. Gabbo stripped the strap from the bag and hung it off his arm. Yeah he knew how to sew so what? Gabbo pulled the bag tight to hold the egg before stitching the strap back to it. "Here allow me" he said. Gabbo stuck the egg in the bag pleased when it fit snugly and put the strap over Raz's neck. "There" he said before looking back at Uteki.

Uteki looked up and waved his paws at the Butterfree flying overhead. "Freeeeee! Freeee" he squealed at them. Uteki wanted fly too! He lightly smacked his tail on the ground. Uteki couldn't walk just yet but he could crawl. But he wanted to walk like Gab-Gab, Jir and Raz. Also he wanted to swim too! Gab-Gab said that he would be a great swimmer and warrior of the Epidemic. Uteki would beat up all the monsters and then a Legendary would give him a badge or even better... A fish! Uteki loved soft fishes specially!

Gabbo nodded to Raz. He too wanted to leave just because it stank of death and poor choices. They were trying to continue distributing starter Pokemon to the more reckless it seemed. To Gabbo it was stupid but to humans it must be a sense of giving peace of mind. He shook his head and pressed his hand to the Shell Bell around his neck. Other Pokemon cursed their trainers for leaving them to die. Gabbo was grateful his trainer had left him and Uteki. Humans in a panic were more dangerous then the Epidemic itself and if she had attempted to take them with her... Gabbo shuddered at the thought. No Pokemon wanted their trainer to get hurt if there was something they could do to prevent it. And his trainer trusted him. Gabbo was a beast of a Pokemon who could combat a Tyranitar if needed and she never told him goodbye. She just said take care and see you later. That showed even she wasn't feeding too much into it... To her and Gabbo this was no more serious then an Epidemic of the Black Plague. How everyone else thought was different.

Uteki crawled over to Jiru and looked up observing the dragon's wings. That meant he could fly! Uteki wanted to fly too! "Jirrrr... Jirrr. Freee" he said with a goofy grin. Jir had to teach him to fly! Uteki could barely tand but he wanted to fly like Jir did. Uteki could be a flying, swimming Oshawott! Then the Legends would favor him and give him a cool badge.

National Park|Morning (16)

Gabbo felt downcast at Jiru's sudden departure. He felt a deep heavy feeling in his chest. The dirty Shell Bell around his neck chimed slightly putting his mind in a state of calm. All the noise around him was blocked off. Gabbo faintly recalled the sound of Raz's voice and Jiru's wings propelling him through the air. His eyes though were made to see through even the filthiest of water were blind in broad daylight. This was it huh? Wait out demise in a target spot. They could not stay in Goldenrod or they would be slaughtered. Gabbo's brain throbbed at overuse trying to recall some place of certainty. City. No... Port. No... Wait. Mountains! Gabbo knew Blackthorne City and Mahogany Town were protected by mountains. For now he would humor the Bayleef until it came to a horde and life and death. They would flee to the mountains eventually. It seemed safe enough. Now where was Uteki?

Uteki's expression turned to to sheer sadness when Jir announced he was leaving. He crawled up to the dragon and squealed when his take off blew him back. Jir..? Uteki looked up at the slowly disappearing dragon and held his paws up trying to will him back. He crawled desperately after him not realizing it was futile. Jiru was getting farther and farther away. Jir..! Uteki crawled faster leaving the Park area and getting farther away from the familiar scent of his caretaker and Raz. He did not want to give up. Uteki wanted Jir to come back and teach him to fly!

Ecruteak City Entrance|Morning

Uteki fell flat on his belly and looked up for a sign of Jiru. His eyes became gooey looking with tears. Jir... He had lost him... Uteki crawled into a bush and covered his face with his paws. He had lost Jir. Now Raz and Gab-Gab would be mad at him for losing him. Uteki looked up at the sky and whimpered. He raised his paws to the sky again and snuffed. Jir! The white fur under his eyes became dark with the little tears running down them. He rubbed his eyes and looked up trying to find Jiru again but to no avail. Uteki curled up in the bush and sniffled. Why did Jir have to leave? They was gonna fight the smelly Pokemon and get badges and fish from the Legendaries for being heroes... Uteki looked to the side seeing a shiny blue pebble. He picked it up and sniffled some more. Bloo like Jir... Uteki stashed the pebble behind his scalchop and looked up at the sky again. Jir... No leave 'Teki... Pease?

((Sad Uteki post is sad... ;~;))

((OoC: I didn't know where Gabbo was so I guessed he was still in Nation Park, assuming he never wrote Gabbo leaving the area))

Goldenrod City|Morning (17)

Gabbo didn't know what possessed him to abandon his search for Uteki to go to Raz's aid. He was gonna spank that little Oshawott's butt raw when he found him. Gabbo let out a deafening roar sending the little weak undead scrambling. He covered Raz with his body and let out Muddy Water combined with Earthquake easily swallowing them all up. Gabbo panted in exertion and clutched his throat which was raw from the Muddy Water. He hadn't drank any water today so it was hard to churn up to consistency to kill anything. Even his knuckles were throbbing a bit from using Earthquake but he had to keep going to find Uteki wherever he was before something else found him first...

Ecruteak City|Morning

Uteki glared up at the Brass Tower. Gab-Gab told him Ho-Oh was there. The little Oshawott growled and crawled towards it. Ho-oh would bring Jir back to teach him to fly! Uteki grinned at his childish cleverness as he made his way through a crack in the building going for the tower. Drops of water fell unbeknownst to him leaving a trail for Gabbo and Raz to follow so they could also meet Ho-oh! Then find Jir! He wasn't ready to accept that his friend was gone.

Goldenrod City|Morning (18)

Gabbo went in the Pokemon Center and looked around carefully. They had to have one... There! He grabbed the water cooler and turned it upside down. The jug of water was disconnected from the mechanism with a simple flick of the wrist and up-ended into the massive Swampert's mouth. The pores in Gabbo's belly greedily sucked up the water for later Muddy Water and Ice Beam attacks. He set the jug aside and looked at Raz. "I have to find Uteki... Eventually he'll get hungry and start crying if he hasn't already" Gabbo said before going out of the Center and up the road to the National Park.

Ecruteak City Brass Tower|Morning

Uteki squealed as he crawled away from the Houndoom into a crack in the wall. The hound stuck its snout into the crack snapping at the otter pup trying to get him. Jir..! Raz..! Gab-Gab..! Bad doggy bad doggy..! The Houndoom opened its jaws wide making the wall crack. Uteki squeaked and shot Scald into the hound's open mouth making it whine in surprise and jump back to paw at its now burning mouth and muzzle. Go 'way! Gab-Gab will beat you up!

Goldenrod City | Morning (1)

The newborn chomped his way out of his shell. He yawned slightly from being held up the the prison of an eggshell. He looked up and saw something. Hello there, it said, I'm Raz, and I'm your daddy. And you will be called Tad. It was established that his fathers name is Raz and his name is Tad. He tried to stand but had to fall face forward. Ahh oo, he said as he squealed in pain. It was supposed to mean Ow but since he is a newborn, he can't speak, only make noises. He wobbled anxiously on all fours towards his dad. He wanted to be picked up so he tried to say daddy but this came out instead, Duh ah dih He tried hard to grab for his daddy's head.

Ecruteak City|Morning (19)

Gabbo growled as he entered the city. It was in a state of complete disrepair. The humans long ago leaving it to ruins. The Burned Tower and Brass Tower looked stunning of course as if they had not been touched. It was hard for Gabbo to think the Infected feared what was rumored to rest and roost in either tower. To the West the Burned Tower den of Suicune the Legendary beast rumored to race and prance across the water, Entei the Legendary beast who's roar brought about volcanoes. Raikou the Legendary beast who raced and outran lightning. To the East the Brass Tower roosting place of the great phoenix Ho-oh. Gabbo clicked his tongue and winced feeling a Thunderbolt hit him. His Ground typing diverted the electricity back into the and he turned his head to see an Ampharos standing there. It's usual creamy golden fur stained with blood and purple splotches and the jaw hanging on by a few stringy strands of tendon. It let out the strangled bleat one would hear from a Mareep being strangled with barbed wire and charged at him with a Thunderpunch. Gabbo grunted slightly from the blunt force pushing him back but the electricity simply sparkled off of his rubbery hide. The Ampharos tilted its head to the side obviously confused. Gabbo grumbled and stood up on his back legs coming to his full height. The Ampharos took a step back. Somewhere in its dead mind something was telling it the great mud fish was no longer the prey but the predator.

Gabbo cracked his neck and stepped towards the smaller Pokemon. His large foot stomping down resounding through the area. Gabbo was in no mood to be trifled with right now.. His pup was missing in the sudden hell of this world and this rat had tried very unsuccessfully to kill him. The Ampharos screeched as Gabbo grasped its neck with his large hand slamming it onto the ground. Gabbo smashed the light on the end of its tail under his foot and grabbed the offending arm that had thrown the Thunderpunch. He twisted the limb backwards making the radial and trochlear notches give forcing the radius and ulna to come out of place tearing through the soft decayed flesh. The Ampharos re-realized pain and screeched before Gabbo grabbed its head pulling it close so he could whisper final words to it.

If I come to find out you harmed a hair on Uteki's head I will revive you with dark magic and tear you into veal strips...

CRACK!

The Ampharos's skull had been crushed. The oozing grey brain matter fell with a dull splat from the poor infected beast's now splintered skull. Its eyes lifeless in appearance hanging from their sockets and blood oozing from its open mouth and nose. Gabbo cleaned his hands off and moved the body just in case Raz had a weak stomach. Now to find Uteki!

Brass Tower|Morning

Uteki shot Scald after Scald at the Houndoom trying to force it away. Gab-Gab..! Jir..! Raz..! He squealed as the Houndoom rammed its head against the wall opening it up more. Uteki stuck his small paw up the hound's nose making it freeze momentarily for a well aimed Scald to the eye. The Houndoom let out its death howl and pawed at its face trying to make the pain stop. Uteki took this chance to scramble for the exit. He never shoulda left Gab-Gab.

((OoC: This post saddens Taka 8{)

Goldenrod City | Early Afternoon (42)(2)

Tad was looking up at Ra, he thought it was much of a strain to say his daddy's name. Ra then said, Hey Tad, can you close your eyes until I say it's okay? Tad agreed by nodding cutely. He was then picked up by his neck which was very uncomfortable and he was technically paralyzed. He was then put into a bag that was like a cradle and Raz started walking. Almost immediately Tad had fallen asleep. In his dream he and Ra were prancing around joyfully in a field of flowers. He smiled in his sleep.

Ecruteak City|Afternoon (20)

Gabbo heard the Houndoom's howl and recoiled with a bellowing roar of his own. He felt his heart seize up in his chest. What if the hound was devouring Uteki?! Gabbo stomped towards the Brass Tower with sheer blood lust dripping from his massive body. He would make a Houndoom blanket for Uteki and whatever Raz's egg hatched into. Something hit his leg making him look down. It was Uteki! The pup was shivering for dear life making him look up to see the frozen Houndoom. Gabbo bared his blunt fangs and stared into the dog's eyes. Its face was marred with fresh burn wounds from Scald. Gabbo smirked and patted Uteki's head. The pup was smart and Gabbo would gratify this with reward of course. The Houndoom took a cautious step back just the folly of the unfortunate Ampharos. Gabbo had no time to toy with the dog's demise. Uteki deserved a prize for defending himself. He skillfully broke the Houndoom's neck and made his exit with Uteki resting in his large hand.

Gabbo dug around in the Ecruteak Pokemon Center before finding it. A comically large lollipop! He set Uteki down in the Pokemon Center lobby and gave him the lollipop. Enjoy it my Uteki, you did well in defending yourself

Uteki squealed happily when Gab-Gab rescued him. He also mentioned a prize! Uteki loved prizes! His prize was a large lollipop. All for 'Teki? Gab-Gab nodded before calling to Raz to come in the Pokemon Center. Uteki wagged his tail happily before licking and chomping on the sucker with not a care in the world as long as no one tried to take his candy away. If that happened it was gonna go down big time.

Ecruteak City | Early Afternoon (43)(3)

Tad opened his eyes tiredly as daddy woke him up. He yawned cutely and tried to bite his own tail. To him, though, it was a monster. Daddy took up Tad by the scruff again and laid him on the ground. New, Tad thought, NEW! This is the first new place other than the place he hatched at. He looked around the area only to see a big monster and a little one. He wanted to play with the little one. He wobbly crawled over to the sea creature and bit his tail playfully. Hewwo, Tad said to the creature, me Tad!

Ecruteak City|Afternoon (21)

Gabbo quirked an eyebrow at the Totodile before taking a map from the wall. He knew since Uteki barely knew what he was that communicating with Tad would be like trying to get a Zangoose and Seviper to talk without injuring each other. Uteki also had something that Tad didn't so eventually something had to give. Raz asked how he was doing. Spectacular... Where do you think we should go next? Gabbo was not too keen on keeping to a place where Legends could've fell and still be... They could stay for a few days if movement was impossible but otherwise it was to the mountains or Moomoo Farm.

Uteki squeaked as his tail was bitten and turned to the perpetrator. A crocagator? He pulled the comically large sucker from his almost flip top jaws and lightly bopped the small crocagator on the head with it. No bite 'Teki's tail The Crocagator was called Tad. Then Tad could play! Uteki crawled behind the counter and found a rubber ball. He rolled it over to Tad and sat back on his bottom waiting for him to roll it back.

((OoC:Uteki hit him with the same degree of a pat on the head just like the bite so it was sticky but didn't hurt him))

Ecruteak City | Early Afternoon (44)(4)

Tad felt the retaliation of the thing now known to him as 'Teki. He noticed that the thing that was slammed against his head was sticky and had a stem. It was probably 'Teki's so Tad tore it off his head and handed it to 'Teki. 'Teki soon left and when Tad was about to cry, he came back with a bouncy ball. He rolled it towards Tad joyfully and Tad noticed that it was supposed to be a game. Tad rolled the ball back towards 'Teki and hoped he would back. Tad joyfully clapped and squealed, Fun!

Ecruteak City|Afternoon (22)

Gabbo suppressed the urge to laugh at what Raz could asked. Sure it was fun having Uteki around mostly cause it scored him points with the ladies but... Trust me... I had fun with Uteki when he first hatched mostly because girls found it attractive but he cried all night and was insufferable... Gabbo smiled a little watching the two play. Uteki's going to start licking his head to get the rest of the sucker off

Uteki leaned up to sniff Tad's head. Sticky... 'Teki help Uteki licked the crocagator's head clean and unsticky. There no more sticky

((OoC: Hnnnng so much cute to draw))

Ecruteak City | Early Afternoon (45)(5)

Tad was feeling icky after 'Teki licked his head. It felt really weird and gross. His tummy hurt too and he didn't know why. When Daddy disappeared Tad had began whimpering. WhAaaaAaaaaa! he cried, but he soon stopped when Daddy came back with a bowl. Raz set the bowl down and said to eat. He ate it up like that, it was delicious! His eyes were still teary and little water droplets fell to the floor. Tirsty, Tad said when his mouth went dry.

((OoC: RAZ'S 45TH POST!!!! YEAH!!!!))

Ecruteak City|Afternoon(23)

Gabbo snorted at Raz suddenly jumping up to cater to Tad like he was the second coming of Rayquaza or something. If Uteki wanted Gabbo to do that then he better fight, clean and massage Gabbo's feet with lotion made of gold. Since Uteki was a mammal he drank milk to keep healthy which Gabbo had managed with the generous Miltank of Moomoo Farm. He rooted around in the fridge finding a jug of milk. It still smelled good even though Uteki would drink it even if it morphed into a Grimer and slapped him. Gabbo poured the milk in a saucer and placed it in front of Uteki for him to inhale like everything else edible. For a small Oshawott he ate like a starving Munchlax.

Uteki cried back at Tad not liking being outmatched in the contest of I can scream louder then you until I'm fed. Gab-Gab brought him milk which Uteki immediately stuck his face in and began slurping up. He loved milk and soft stuff but milk especially.

Ecruteak City | Early Afternoon (46)(6)

After Tad's mouth went dry, he went crazy. He cried as loud as he could. In his fit he started using Ice Punch on the ground around him. He cried louder and louder now because his butt was cold. He got up to all fours and waddled away bawling the whole time. When daddy came back and set down some liquid in a bowl, Tad gulped it right up. He stopped crying in an instance. He stomach was better and his throat wasn't dry. He was happy. He looked around to see what he did and at the moment he saw daddy throw a big tree at a gross looking monster. He jumped in joy and cheerfulness as if hoping Daddy won.
