Mewtwo's Rage- RP Thread
Forum-Index → Roleplay → Pokémon RP → Mewtwo's Rage- RP ThreadMarcia struts into Viridian City and immediately bolts for the PokeMart. "10 Antidotes, 15 Repels, 5 Potions, 15 PokeBalls... yeah, that sounds good!" she says to the clerk. After paying for her items, she and her overflowing wicker bag wobble over to the Pokemon Center for some much needed rest. "Let's wait here for our new friends! Then, in the morning, we can check out Viridian Forest." Marcia says to Shelly intently.
"Tell me again why we're stationed to guard Viridian Forest? The most dangerous Pokemon in this place is the occasional Butterfree!" A police officer asks. "Apparently, there's a big Weedle infestation. But Oak seemed pretty concerned when he sent us over here. Kinda weird, considering Viridian Forest is full of Weedles anyway. But for the record, no way I'm gonna question him." the other guard retorts. "Oooh, scared that Mewtwo is hiding out in there, tough guy?" the first guard taunts. "N-no! Come on, it's just a rumor after all. Mewtwo doesn't even exist." he sighs, hoping he's right.
(I'll be AFK for a bit! Maybe some of your characters can get to know each other before entering Viridian Forest? I apologize for guarding it so heavily, I do have something planned there though ;p )
"Alright, today we check out Viridian Forest!" Marcia told to her new friends. Seeing the gloomy weather, Marcia sighed. "Ooh, the rain will ruin my makeup!" Shelly, however, jumped for joy at the sight of a drizzle. Taking out a small umbrella, Marcia would protect herself from the rain while Shelly jumped in the puddles along Viridian City. Soon, she reached the gate.
"Oy! You there, little trainer! Didn't you hear? There's a Weedle infestation past these parts. Nobody's allowed in." One of the officers grumbled. The other followed, "Orders straight from Professor Oak, 'don't let anybody in!' and I nor you want to defy the Professor, do you?"
Marcia stood, slightly shocked at the sight of two police officers guarding the Forest. Surely, that's a bit overkill? "With all due respect, Mr. Policemen, I'm going into that forest. Oak's word means just about as much to me as the ground I'm stepping on. So, lemme in!"
The policemen laugh. "Allllright kid, I guess we'll have to settle this the old fashioned way!" One of them says. In an instant, both policemen send out their own Growlithe.
"Oh, a battle! Sweet! Shelly, go!" Marcia sends out her Squirtle. "Hmmm, it is a 2v1 right now..." Marcia turns her head back towards the city. "Anyone wanna battle with me?" she shouts, before sending a rain-boosted Bubble towards one of the Growlithe.
"Thanks, bud!" Marcia smiles. "Yes.... well, trying to go to Viridian Forest, I mean." she explains. "Shelly, use Bubble, but aim for both the Growlithe!" Shelly obliges, and powered by the rain, the Squirtle hits a critical hit Bubble on the already weakened Growlithe to knock them out.
"Yes!" She turns to her fellow trainer. "Thanks to you and your Eevee, we beat these old geezers!" she laughs, putting out a hand to shake.
"Uughhh... fine, we'll let you lot in. You seem strong enough to handle whatever's in there. But don't tell anyone about this!" One officer groaned. "Yeah, we'd never hear the end of it if we said we got beat by two rookie trainers..." the other adds. "One more thing... don't go through the forest's exit. You can go into the forest, but there are guards on the other side of it as well. Take the detour once you're ready to go to Pewter City." With that final word of advice, they both step aside.
Walking and talking, Marcia heads into the gate leading to the forest. "Yaaayyy! Alright! I don't think they'll mess with our group now. Thanks for helping me out! What's your name, aga-"
Entering the forest, Marcia pauses. "W-what?"
Viridian Forest, if you could call it a forest anymore, was almost completely decimated. Trees line what looked like a huge crater in the center of what was once a verdant biome. It resembled a desert, now. Stray Pokemon, most of them hurt, stick to the sides of the forest where trees still remained, half out of necessity and half out of fear of the new people entering their old home.
(So! There are Pokemon to be caught here, but they're all hurt, so you don't have to put up much of a fight to catch them.
Regular Encounters:
- Weedle
- Caterpie
- Oddish
- Bellsprout
- Wurmple
Special Encounters (a wheel will be spun to determine who gets to catch these. Palpad me if you want to be in the draw! Though it won't happen for at least a few hours to give everyone a chance to decide!)
- Treecko
- Mudkip)
And leave the dying to the dead
If your flame is burning strong
Why watch the shadows on the wall instead of
Living life without regret
So you can see what lies beyond
The border when you're gone
Taking in the damage to the forest, he let out a low whistle. “No wonder there are guards here.” Stepping closer to the crater to inspect the damage, he asked the others, “Do you know what caused this?”
Jolyne was first bemused, but when Ronno grew bolder at the face of his utter failure, and started talking about the little scissors in his handbag, Jolyne started expressing her botherment with electricity.
But now, all the pins and little shocks were forgotten about. At the face of what remained of Viridian Forest, all that remained in Ronnos's mind was a heavy cocktail of curiosity and dread, one that Ronno knows led to bad ideas.
Slowly, as if he knew that he is making a mistake, but was determined to do it anyway, he went over to kneel next to Tao, and dragged a well-manicured finger through the crater's raggedy surface. His finger came off covered in ash, and Ronno with zero hesitance immediately proceeded to lick it.
It didn't taste paranormal, so there was that. Some balm, for his weary soul. "It was the weedle infestation, of course. Gobbled up all the foliage, and then their sires.. liquified the earth, I suppose? Flesh, soil, what is the difference in the end. A issue of overcrowding, nothing more, nothing else..."
Even to him, that sounded just a tad dubious but.. Ronno would like to hope. He knew how to deal with ghosts, and the inevitable Doomsday too. Atleast, he trusted himself to figure it all out when it got to it.
But whatever was the... The Entity, the Mewtwo that his subconscious whispered to him in a frighted, mousy tone, that one was a matter way past his coverage.
Shake, shake, shake… click!
“Well, at least catching the Pokemon here should be easy…” her positive demeanor didn’t do the best job at masking her intimidation. Surely, something greater than herself did this… she almost hopes it isn’t true, and yet, what’s an adventure without a villain?
