"Hmhmhm~" Tetsu hummed happily as he rides his Charmeleon, Sphalerite. He has passed route 2 and now is heading toward Russetton. He heard there are something... quite nice honestly? Apparently there are cases of Bulbasaur horde. He'd like to get one for his team, hopefully a male one because he got a female one already. Poor girl probably a bit lonely just by her loneself. At any rate...
"Hmmm, let's see, map map..."
Riku patted his shoulder with a map. "Oh, right! Heheh, sorry there, pal! We're here, and we need to go here before the nighttime..."
Tetsu picked afternoon after the sun already set to avoid any heat. He don't particularly have any aversion to it, but it's just uncomfortable for him. He prefers the colder temperature. Plus if it gets too cold, Sphalerite can help him by strengthening the flame on his tail. Anyway... for the meantime...
"I really gotta get my Pokemons stronger, huh..."
Yeah, he need to get his pokemon stronger. Riku has been restless lately, as he's not catching up as much as the rest. That's fair, and he would like to train him too.. And so, this time's team ended up like this.
Riku the Riolu lv 11 Sphalerite the Charmeleon lv 16 Durandal the Honedge lv 17 Rutile the Rockruff lv 12 Alexandrite the Galarian Ponyta lv 13 Tourmaline the Beedrill lv 10
What with this team? Well this team are his strongest Pokemons. So understandable that he'd like to boost them to even stronger level if he could. Here hoping that it'll help him on the way... If he picked wrong he guess he can just switch them around!

While Shalin and her Beedrill were far south enough that it didn't exactly get cold in the depths of Roch Canyon after the sun went down, it wasn't what she would call warm, either. While it was mid-afternoon, the mountains to the north and west blocked out a lot of sunlight, making it look like it was dusk. There was still plenty of light for Queen Zing's compound eyes to see by, though. As fun as a dive into the canyon would be, a crash from being unable to clearly see would be painful at best, fatal at worst. "Hey, can you go up to the edge real quick?" she asked her now-grounded mount, the poisonous insect crawling up to the canyon's eastern edge and turning to one side, letting Shalin see into the natural depression. "Seems like we'll be able to get to the bottom easily. Alright, let's go!" The blonde checked her earplugs to make sure they were snug before the two were airborne again, her Beedrill closely following the steep, descending trail. --- Tetsu Asterite NAME SPECIES LV EP Queen Zing Beedrill 11 3 Caprice Ninetales 13 3 Flit Yanma 8 3 Kiku Stunky 11 3 Levy Milotic 15 3{WC: 175} {PC: 1}

Tetsu blinked as once again he found... something quite interesting. Huh. Talk about lucky. What's this? Sounds like an old campsite... and again, abandoned medicines. He can always have more of that! Considering how he often let his Pokemon out, he's sure that he can carry tons of them easily. He pocketed two bottles of Paralyze Heal and thanked whoever left it there. No Pokemons on sight at this time... So he decided to let a Pokemon out.
"Tourmaline, let's practice some moves too. Is that fine, Sphalerite?" he asked his other ride. Sphalerite gave him a thumb up. He can use a little break carrying his trainer. He returned to his Pokeball... and actually, Tetsu wanted to check Tourmaline's speed while at it. He returned most of his Pokemon, sans Riku and Rutile who seem want to test out what Tourmaline is about to do next.
"Heheh, alright. Let's go, Tourmaline!"
Wearing his noise canceller, Tetsu ordered the Beedrill to use... Tailwind. Tourmaline's wings beated fast as she hovered above the ground. Once she feels comfortable enough, she blasts forward! A draft of wind followed along with her wingbeats. Riku and Rutile immediately followed suit, using the wind to follow close behind. Despite them still having to run rather than fly, they felt boosted by the wind! They didn't use as much energy as usual, and on top of that they're indeed faster! So this what it feels like to be on the receiving end of Tailwind... It's very useful

The glint of a Poké Ball caught Shalin's eye as she began her descent. She reached over to grab it, but couldn't quite do so. "Hey, Queen Zing, can you hover closer real quick?" The so-called friendliest wasp in Ageos did as asked, kicking up more dust from how close her wings were to the ground. The glint appeared to be from a cracked Net Ball. While there was obvious damage to it, it appeared to be usable, at least. Once the two faced forward again, Shalin squinted as interference from her Beedrill's wings rang in her head. She peered toward the canyon's bottom, and she could make out a silhouette that looked like another Beedrill. Beedrill were not native to arid environments, so it had to be trained. "Come on, let's go after it!" Shalin shouted, the interference largely going away as Queen Zing nosed down, her wings going into overdrive as the two descended closer to the bottom. The intense burst of vibration from leveling out after the dive almost numbed Shalin, her eyes closed and her mouth wide open briefly from the thrill of the wild shaking. As they got closer, she felt further acceleration as a powerful Tailwind suddenly blew from behind them. Was this the other Beedrill's doing...? --- Tetsu Asterite NAME SPECIES LV EP Queen Zing Beedrill 11 3 Caprice Ninetales 13 3 Flit Yanma 8 3 Kiku Stunky 11 3 Levy Milotic 15 3{WC: 213} {PC: 2}

Tetsu's little cruise ended up... well... blocked. He had no idea what just going on at first, as the only indication of the stop was Tourmaline angry buzzing. Tetsu peered to the side to check on what's going on... and surprise surprise... they got guests. Guests that apparently as hotheaded as Tourmaline. No matter how hard the Beedrill buzzes, the leader, a Tauros, did not even want to move. Tetsu noted that the horde is mixed. Three Tauros and two Miltanks. As the ire grows, Tetsu dismounted from his Beedrill.
"Well... um, hey! Could you guys move or something? You're currently... blocking the way toward Rusetton you know!" Tetsu told the horde. Yet, none of them are hearing him. The leader merely looked at him squarely on the eyes. Wow, he had no idea it's that intimidating to be stared straight at by a Tauros, but... well that happened.
"...I'll take that as a no." The Tauros nodded. "Then what do you need?" Tetsu asked in return. The Tauros moo'd several times. Riku nodded at the explanation. He decided to translate for Tetsu.
"What's that? ...Mmm, waiting? Strong person? Strong person, will listen? So basically you guys will only listen to us if we force our way through you guys, by beating you huh."
At this, the big Tauros nodded. "...Alright, that sounds reasonable enough. How about we make a little bit of a wager then? If you lose, on top of having to clear the way... I'll try to catch you," he pointed at the leader "and her," he pointed at a shy, fidgeting Miltank on the back, who seem to be more than happy to join as long as the leader is also caught "And him," he pointed at the average Tauros. "Three of you, I'll toss three balls to capture you guys. Do you accept this term?"
The Tauros leader nodded. Seem there's nothing wrong... Alright. Immediately, Tetsu sent five of his Pokemon, keeping Durandal on his side. Riku against the leader, Sphalerite and Alexandrite against the other two. Rutile took fight against the smaller Miltank, while Tourmaline fought against the average Miltank. The battle started with Tourmaline immediately buffed the entire team with Tailwind. On top of that, Rutile howled, raising the party member's attack drastically. Riku, with his increased level, makes short work of the leader. Even with payback, Riku fiercely countered with Counter. The result was already clear.
Sphalerite is not in worse condition either. With his Dragon Breath he managed to neutralize the target. He took a hit from Payback but it wasn't bad. Alexandrite took a while to win against his own target, right after giving them Confusion. By chance, he managed to made his target confused near the end. And by his luck, he did not square against the Tauros with Payback. Otherwise the damage he sustained would ahve been much worse. Rutile did not have to attack all that much. Her opponent was reluctant to fight much, and she won right after they decided to finish early. Tourmaline however, had to fight against the other Miltank in much more prolonged amount of time. It was a turtling strategy. It took about three Twinneedles to finally poison the Miltank and therefore defeating it.
"Well then, as promised... nest ball, go!"
Tetsu tosses three nest balls, one at the huge Tauros, one at the small Miltank, and one at average Tauros.

Shalin, overjoyed, let out another scream as though she was on a roller coaster. From how fast Queen Zing flew, she was unsure whether the roaring wind was from whatever was causing the tailwind or from the wake of her mount's own buzzing. The straight-line flight gave the girl a chance to recover feeling in her arms after the dive overwhelmed even her. A scuffle with some wild Pokémon that had wandered into the canyon allowed Shalin to catch up and get a better look at the other side involved. She caught a good view of a Charmeleon purging one of the Tauros with dragonfire. "Wait...Ruby Jack?" she said, though the only person that could hear her voice was herself. It took until the end of the battle, where two Tauros and a Miltank were being drawn into Poké Balls, to catch up. "It is!" Shalin called out to Tetsu with a cry and a wave from aboard her Beedrill, a nearby young girl atop her Alolan Ninetales dumbfounded at seeing not one, but two Beedrill tacked up to serve as mounts. She slowly slinked away... Tetsu Asterite{WC: 188} {PC: 3}

Gotcha! Well look at that! "Alluvium, Gneiss and then... uh, the last one... Rose Quartz!" Tetsu decided the names. He really want to ride a Tauros now! Would Gneiss allows him to ride him he wonder? The huge Tauros seem to be REALLY GOOD for riding... He really want to try to ride him... Especially those bucking. It could be training for his strength! Just as he sent the Pokemons to the PC, he heard someone calling out to him.
"Hm? Oh well isn't it Shalin! Been a while huh!" Tetsu greeted. Tourmaline meanwhile does not drop her guard. She obviously already know what the lady is known for. Sphalerite meanwhile is quite happy to see Shalin again. Riku on the other hand does not share the sentiment and is looking at her like a troublesome child. Something along the line of "There are two of them now. Dear Arceus". The rest of Tetsu's pokemon does not quite care about the appearance of the lady and her Beedrill. Rutile just glanced momentarily to acknowledge the appearance, while Alexandrite simply looked and whinnied something along the line of "another Beedrill. What's up with these people?"
"What are you doing up here?" Tetsu asked. "I'm heading to Russetton, you see! Ah, the path is cleared now. Why don't we ride? C'mon, Tourmaline!"
Tetsu immediately hopped to Tourmaline's saddle. The wasp Pokemon readied her Tailwind again.

Upon catching up with Tetsu, Queen Zing slowed her wings to minimum hovering speed - that way, it was at least somewhat safe for her to take her earplugs out and speak. "...I should have known," she laughed when she sighted Tetsu next to Tourmaline, the other Beedrill looking like she could ram her stings down Shalin's throat at any moment. "Relax! We won't hurt you," the girl nonchalantly directed to Tourmaline, then smiling at Sphalerite. Many of the rest of Tetsu's Pokémon stared at her quizzically, like she was the class clown or something. "Would you know? I'm headed that way, too!" Shalin echoed Tetsu's destination aloud. "With how deep this road runs, might be a good spot for both our Beedrill to let loose! What wild Pokémon would dare bother us, anyway?" She got her answer when Tetsu hopped aboard Tourmaline. The blonde put her earplugs in again, her skin tingling as Queen Zing got her wings up to speed again. The two buzzes were both menacing-sounding, but they were distinctly different. Tourmaline's had the higher pitch to it, for one; she was curious to see what her own wasp would have to keep up with! --- Tetsu Asterite{WC: 198} {PC: 4}

<Who hurting who?> Tourmaline snarked, not that the human would understand her, but still, it's laughable to think that the human think she's on guard because she thinks the team is in danger. Tetsu gently patted the Beedrill on her spear. "It's OK, don't be so sensitive, Tourmaline. They're friends you know?"
<If my trainer says so,> Tourmaline relented, and dropped her stance on both of her spears.
"Heh, let loose huh? Well I do think I need to get fast to Russetton, you see..." After all, he just got a Tauros! He would like to ride it! Gneiss will be a great addition to his work Pokemons too, in case there are boulders, he can ask it to ram it through! That would be the best isn't it? Tetsu pretty much almost vibrating by himself at how excited he is to reach the next town.
"Well then, looks like we're in agreement. Riku, Rutile, can you keep up?" Tetsu asked, to which the two nodded as answer. "Alright then... Let's continue the journey!"
Tetsu pulled his headset down to his ears. "Well get ready then! Tourmaline... Release the Tailwind!"
Tourmaline's wings roared and releases boosting wind that the other Pokemons ride. Tourmaline herself launched forward, with Tetsu on her back. The boy does not seem to mind the slightest of the vibration or the roaring. However, it's a question of how much could he handle from the vibration and the buzzing...
Does it shows that he's getting stronger at least? Going straight line is easy enough for him, but soon he faced a curve. Tetsu pressed the bar handle to the right side, a sign for Tourmaline to curve. The Beedrill seem to purposely did not curve smoothly. She almost hitting the curve wall, but immediately flapped her wings harder to send a gust of air to the wall and propels even faster. Riku who saw this smirked. The Beedrill is starting to feel like a true party member.

"Dang, your Beedrill's aggressive even under your control!" Shalin blurted out, breathing a big sigh of relief afterward. It seemed Tourmaline was willing to tolerate the presence of another queen, at least for their trip to Russetton. The girl barely heard Tetsu scream for a Tailwind from his own Beedrill. "Wait, Tailwind?!" Shalin asked, tensing up, though she was unsure Tetsu could even hear her. Tourmaline's wings were loud and clear even from Shalin's nearby perch, the air blowing around them sending her light, golden blonde hair flying chaotically about. She couldn't imagine how loud it must be from Tetsu's perch on the obviously strong poison-type. The moment Queen Zing jumped into the air and followed after Tourmaline, her wings went into overdrive from being inside the other Beedrill's Tailwind. Shalin stared in disbelief while watching Tourmaline use intense vibration to bounce a gust of wind off the canyon wall for raising speed even higher. The girl was already starting to lose her senses from how powerful Queen Zing's shaking was; the particularly strong burst from rounding the gorge's curve was almost numbing to her. She had a long way to go before mastering such a nimble insect... Tetsu Asterite{WC: 198} {PC: 5}

"Sorry, she's... not exactly one who has been raised by human's hand," Tetsu admitted. "She was an alpha on top of it, so you know how it goes... Alpha tends to be very powerful in their own rights, and well... not to mention she's a female Beedrill in Pokemon swarm where it's martriarchal than patriarchal. So... well, she doesn't regard other beedrill, especially another female that wasn't part of her swarm kindly.... I guess that's how it is."
The ride was a blast to Tetsu. The roaring wings was a bit loud, but thanks to the noice cancelling it wasn't deafening or damaging his hearing. It does silence even Shalin's bewilderment sadly though, so Tetsu was unable to hear anything wrong with his Beedrill executing Tailwind. He thought that it's just given. He's lucky to score a Pokemon with double Egg moves.
Tourmaline's wild ride did not stop. Her roaring Tailwind would have alerted the other Pokemon, wondering what the hell is going on. Some poor souls came out from their den momentarily, only to be blasted by such a strong gust of wind, tumbling backward back to their den. Even some trainer were gawking at the dust Tourmaline is sending behind the party's Tailwind in its wake.
"Yeeehaaaa!!" Tetsu only could enjoy the ride! It's really fast! Sure that he would have gotten to Russetton faster if he get out from this trench of canyon walls, but... This is tons of fun!
He looked back at Shalin and signed something, which simply translates to "are you OK there?"
...He definitely can't hear her, so this is the only way.

"...That makes a ton of sense," Shalin answered. "No wonder she's such a challenge." She didn't get to say too much more before the two were aloft. Rounding the corner that Tourmaline bounced a giant wind gust off of, the girl was rather shaky, having lost quite a bit of feeling in her left leg. Queen Zing's flight started to get a bit drifty, most likely from overworking her left wing during the big right turn. Their hum started to rise and fall in pitch periodically, as well. When prompted by Tetsu's signaling, Shalin tilted her right wrist back and forth to indicate things were going so-so. She quickly pointed down, toward the gorge's surface, trying to communicate that she wanted to land and give the Beedrill a break. She hoped the Tailwind would peter out soon and make landing a bit easier. --- Tetsu Asterite NAME SPECIES LV EP Queen Zing Beedrill 18 3 Caprice Ninetales 21 3 Flit Yanma 16 3 Kiku Stunky 11 3 Levy Milotic 16 3
