This world is inhabited by creatures that we call pokemon. People and pokemon live together by supporting each other, but now the scourge threatens the safety of the entire region. Kohaku has become a dangerous place, where children stay at home and only brave souls go adventuring.
Welcome to KOHAKU. Come for the nightmares. Stay for the tea and crumpets.
The season is SUMMER. It is easy for survivors to forage for food from the land, as there are entire abandoned farms ready for harvest. On the downside, you can smell the corpses.

He waited. An odd place for waiting, but Elias couldn't think of any other way to do this. His pokemon needed extra strength, but their trainer wasn't exactly the type of person to just walk up to someone and say "hey! wanna battle?" He had never been able to do things like that, and frankly, Elias didn't want to. Training really should be a private sort of thing, but his pokemon would get more battling experience if they actually were fighting against another real pokemon.
It was damp, dark and hot in the tunnels today, as the sun was shining brightly outside. Hopefully the heat would drive some trainers in. admin (lol this is so hastily written/short but hopefully it'll be okay to just start things up)

"Hey!" she called out across the caverns, her voice echoing a bit ominously. "Wanna battle?"
Neo, luckily, was the sort of person that simply walked up to people and challenged them to a fight. She didn't expect no for an answer--plausibly wouldn't take no for an answer either--and Neo called out Mneme the wobbuffet. Out of all her pokemon, Mneme had the least battle experience out of all of them, having mostly been raised up in daycare. The last time she'd had a real fight was when she was newborn. Another one would do her good, Neo thought.
A voice rang out in the tunnel, and Elias stumbled in surprise. It was a challenge shouted out, and although Elias was excited to hear one, he didn't like the shock that came with it. "Uh," He rubbed his eyes, trying to get a better look at the trainer. "Okay." The boy decided, unhooking a pokeball from his belt. He tossed it up, letting out a scrawny Vullaby. The bird screeched loudly, sending a gigantic echo through the cave.
Elias got a glimpse of the trainer as her Wobbuffet came out. He had never fought against one of those before, as it was a quite odd and rare pokemon. Cynder flapped it's wings rapidly, getting ready for a battle. The bird didn't like being in the tunnels, but he was still excited for the adrenaline rush that came with fighting. Elias didn't give him any commands, but the bird whipped up a NASTY PLOT anyway. He had a plan. admin

Neo didn't have a plan either, and she knew Mneme really didn't have a plan. She had studied the pokemon's battle potential in the training center however, and her only conclusion was that in combat, a wobbuffet can be really annoying.
No, Elias hadn't ever seen a Wobbuffet before, and if he had, he would've known that Cynder was not the right pokemon to deal with this blue creature. The Vullaby was awfully rash and tempered, and Elias could already see one of his little tantrums occurring during this battle. The encore is annoying, and a NASTY PLOT still lingers in the bird's mind, haunting him with a constant reminder of it's being. Elias doesn't know what to do- the bird doesn't listen to him often anyway, so he promptly keeps quiet, glancing at his pokemon every once in a while. Cynder was going to do something, right?!
And as if he sensed his trainer's disappointment, Cynder fired off a GUST, right on cue. admin

Poor Cynder was just about getting a headache, as the NASTY PLOT was occupying most of his brainstorming. He certainly was not battling at his best.
The vullaby waited in anticipation for the joke. He was on his toes for this punchline, and once it came, the bird began to cackle like there was no tomorrow. Cynder fell to his knees and rolled in the mud, mouth wide open, letting out some sort of shrieking that was his laughter. The gust went above his head, only ruffling a few feathers that stuck up from his noggin.
And he rolled more, wings sending another GUST as he went. admin (Not sure if you knew, I think mirror coat is just like counter. it doesn't reflect moves, it takes damage from them and sends the damage back.)

Mneme mirror coat'd the gust again, because Mneme didn't really have that many options when it came to attacking.
"You alright?" Neo asked the wobbuffet, who... honestly looked like she didn't notice she'd been buffeted by the winds, nevermind that she was starting to bruise.
The wobbuffet saluted. <Wobb!>
Neo suspected the wobbuffet wasn't smart enough to feel pain.
A gust of wind is reflected back at him, and Cynder falls on his rump, desperately trying to stand up. But that's not going to happen. His cackling stops, as he tries to get his large rear end into the air. No dice.
So instead, the bird sends another GUST.
To make it even worse, his NASTY PLOT is driving him mad. admin

Weather forecast: partly cloudy, very windy. Very, very windy.
The constant exchange of gusting winds in the cavern blew Neo's hood down and her hair everywhere (but mostly in her face). Great. Mneme, on the other hand, was simply blown over, toppling over onto her side before tumbling along the cave floor. <Wobb!> Mneme called out, just as energetically and obliviously as before.
"...That's probably enough," Neo said, spitting out a mouthful of her own hair. She recalled Mneme. "Good match."
It was very windy in the caverns, wasn't it? It wasn't Cynder's fault! At this point, it was all the bird could do. The nasty plot had finally left his brain, giving him a chance to think, but by then the other trainer had decided this was enough. The Vullaby was still stuck sitting down- his rear was too heavy for him to get up again.
Elias didn't mind the wind. He had been in the caverns for longer than Neo, having been looking for a challenge. His hair is blown out of his face, showing his entire forehead and both eyes, one of which is usually covered up. He returns Cynder to his pokeball, quickly flattening his hair down before Neo could get a good look.
"You too." He states, putting the pokeball back on his belt. "Nice Wobbuffet." Was that a complement? Even Elias didn't know. admin
