Overhead, there were many bird Pokemon soaring around, crying out to each other and making a ruckus in general. Rizen shielded his eyes from the bright sun, trying to gaze up at the flying creatures. "Man, they're loud..." he mumbled. The Pokemorph wasn't exactly sure why he had went to the Isle of Flying Pokemon in the first place. Maevia had mentioned it to him, and he supposed that he had wanted to check the place out because of the not-quite-artificial-anymore wings on his back. He felt that he had a certain connection to flying things... Rose, his Treecko, noted his pensive face and uttered a small, worried sounding chirp. Rizen looked down to see her tugging at his pants, and he gave her a quick thumbs up to show that he was ok.

"So what do you want to do, Rose?" Rizen asked his Treecko. Rose shrugged, as she wasn't very familiar with the isle, so Rizen took the lead and started wandering down towards the shore. He could hear the cries of seafaring bird Pokemon, and he thought he could make out the calls of some Wingulls or Pelippers, both of which were from his home region of Hoenn. It was a relaxing sound in this foreign land.
When they reached the sandy beach, Rose began to scuttle around, examining little shells and rocks on the sand with much curiosity. Rizen stared out at the ocean and breathed in the air.

If Rizen took the time to look into the sky, to gaze at the bird Pokemon there, he would end up finding something out of place. Among all the expected white and blue Wingull and the few Pelippers, there was a black bird Pokemon of some sort. It was, in fact, circling over and over again, as if it was looking for something. All the other birds seemed to stray away from it.

In the middle of her investigation of the objects in the sand, Rose looked up at the noisy throng of Wingulls and Pelippers. She blinked when she saw a darker colored bird in the middle of the group. What it was exactly was still unclear to her even when she squinted, but she could tell that for some reason, the other birds were avoiding it.
Rose glanced around for her trainer and found Rizen looking at the ocean. She skittered over to him and tugged on his pant leg, trying to get his attention. Rizen looked down to see the Treecko pointing up at the sky. He finally gazed upwards and saw the black creature.
"Huh," he muttered. "I wonder what that is."

The black bird Pokemon continued to circle in the sky, not seeming to take notice of the Pokemorph and the Treecko on the shore. Not seeming, for it was well aware of their presence.
It circled and circled, until it changed courses abruptly. It dove down in a flash, its wings back and picking up speed fast. It nearly plummeted into the ocean, flaring out its wings at the very last second. It flew only inches from the surface of the water, heading straight for Rose!

Rizen gasped when he saw the bird Pokemon plummet and swerve towards Rose. Judging from its speed, there was no time to pick her up and run for it. So instead, Rizen hunched over and shielded his Pokemon with his body, folding in the silver and red Skarmory wings as tightly to his back as he could. Rose chirped in alarm and clung to her trainer as tightly as possible. Hopefully the metal wings would soften the impact.

At the same instant that the trainer jumped in front of the Treecko to protect it, the black bird Pokemon swerved just to the side, missing the two only by a few inches. It circled back around then, flaring out its wings suddenly to act much like a parachute, catching wind, to slow it down. It soared over Rizen at a much slower pace and suddenly bonked him on the head with something that it held. The Pokemon then landed in front of them, ruffling up its feathers and staring at them with intent eyes. It appeared to be... a Farfetch'd, though the coloring of it and its leek was all wrong.

Rizen was waiting for the impact, but it never came. Instead, he heard the soft wooshing of feathers, a small breeze caused by the flapping of wings, and then...a bonk on his head?
"Ow!" he exclaimed, rubbing the spot where he got hit. He looked up, eyes narrowed, to find a...black bird with a leek? Although he was still tense because he didn't know if the bird was aggressive or not, he was also quite confused as to what this thing was. It didn't seem to be a Hoenn native. Rose, also confused as to what happened, crawled out from underneath Rizen and saw the leek-wielding bird.
"A black Farfetch'd?" she said in a questioning voice.
"Is that what it is?" Rizen said, looking at her.
"Yes, but they're usually brown with green leeks."

The Farfetch'd began to scratch at the sand with its feet quite violently, luckily in the opposite direction of Rose and Rizen. "Usually, usually, usually," it repeated, glaring at the both of them. It looked at Rizen in particular though, "She's a Pokemon. Why block her? Should she not fight, herself? Yes? No? Yes?" It then looked back to the Treecko, "Do you fight? Yes? No?"

Rizen guessed that this little guy was looking for a battle. He and Rose exchanged a glance, and then they turned back to face the Farfetch'd. "Yes, we fight," he said. "And we won't be afraid to show you what we can do!" Rose stepped closer to the bird Pokemon, tail waving furiously. She was ready when her opponent was.

The wild Pokemon grew quite excited when the trainer and the Pokemon accepted its challenge, even though it proposed the battle in such an odd manner. The Farfetch'd fluffed its feathers up, making itself look a little bigger, eyes locked onto the Treecko. It decided that the grass Pokemon was just as ready for battle as it was.

Rizen gazed at the Farfetch'd, wondering what sorts of abilities it had. Since the Pokemon was not native to Hoenn, he was not familiar with it at all. But he did know that getting whacked atop the head with a leek was not fun.
"Alright, Rose," he called, "go ahead with a Pound attack!" Rose chirped and rushed ahead, arm outstretched, ready to strike.

The bird Pokemon didn't move an inch as the Treecko came at it, the Pound attack hitting into it flawlessly. The Farfetch'd stepped back to keep its footing, flapping its wings as if to shake off the attack. It only seemed to be a test.
Farfetch'd lost 4 HP!
In the instant that followed, the Pokemon took to the air. It flew up not all that far off the ground and shot toward the grass type Pokemon with its wings out stretched. It was aimed so that one of its wings of smack into Rose, making use of its Fury Cutter attack.
Attack was double effective! Rose lost 4 HP!

Rose cried out a bit at the power of the attack, but she regained her footing and shook herself out.
"It's alright, Rose!" Rizen cheered her on. "We still have fight in us! Go for another Pound attack!"

Rose landed another flawless hit on the Farfetch'd, even though the odd colored bird Pokemon attempted to hop out of reach this time around. It let out a squawk of surprise on the impact.
Farfetch'd lost 4 HP!
When all was said and done, the wild Pokemon was ready to fight back once more. It wouldn't take that from a grass type! It took to the air once more, flying straight for rose with its wings out stretched, one slicing across the Treecko.
Attack was double effective! Rose lost 4 HP!
