Amber had heard the very rare, and for her, very VALUABLE Ditto lived in this area... So, she decided to take her team and go investigating. After all, as a breeder, a Ditto was pretty much essential for a very successful business.

Perry was leading the way, being silent. Hazard was hopping around behind him, sort of like how a Hoothoot would on one foot at a time. Venia was draped around Bambi's shoulders, as usual. Skye, her shiny Trapinch was just running around her legs, barking his green face off like an idiot. Lucifer just waddled along besides her, muttering his name "Xew, xew, xew." with every step he took. Coraggio, on the other hand, was trying to get ahead of Periculum, who kept trying to blast him with a Dragon Rage ball every time he did.

Needless to say, Amber adored her team. Five dragons, or future ones, and one cute bird. One candle in the PC, too. She had it good, even now! Seven Pokemon, and then a Ditto. Oh... things were gonna turn out good. With two Pokeballs left, she could catch another Pokemon here too, but she would need to make sure it was rare, first.

( :O! "Curiosity made you check." GODMODDDD very little, but still. Of course, no warning or punishment, or... anything. owo Really just, it gets on my nerves if someone makes my character even blink. ;D Who knows, maybe Amber suddenly got paranoid and made Periculum blast the bushes with Dragon Rage.

I do love Rufflets, though. <33)

Amber blinked when she saw the Rufflet, and then clapped. "Oh look, Hazard! It's your male counterpart?" Hazard tilted her head and clicked in confusion, while staring at the Rufflet. She obviously didn't know what her trainer meant, as she saw no resemblance whatsoever. She was black with a bald face, and he had a super furry face. He didn't wear his egg, either. He sorta looked naked... Hazard suddenly giggled and turned her tailfeathers toward the Rufflet, clucking like an embarrassed girl bird.

Amber just laughed, even when she saw that glare he gave. She stopped laughing, however, when all of her male Pokemon got right back up in the Rufflet's face and glared right back at him, just as fiercely. And with Periculum's injured eye... ew.

The glaring boys blinked in surprise as the Rufflet had just seemed to.. flutter over them. Periculum snarled in a way that would make anyone's skin crawl, and he zipped to Amber's legs. He growl-gurgled at the Rufflet from between them, snapping his jaws and stamping his feet in a warning.

Lucifer just protested and waddled over to the Rufflet, wanting to smack him upside the head. Skye did pretty much the same, but instead, he barked TRAPTRAPTRAP instead, doing it so violently that he jumped every single time he woofed.

Coraggio just scoffed and started acting cool, looking to the side. Venia sort of looked disappointed in the boys. Pretty sure she thought of them as idiots.

Hazard stood up straight and blinked, hearing the boy's song. She turned her head back to look at him, a shy look on her face. As soon as she saw his ruffled feathers like that, she turned away and covered her face with her wings, giggling and clucking. Obviously, she was blushing~

Amber did not. Know what to do at this point.

Amber just sighed and rolled her eyes. "Alright, alright... Hazard, do you wanna stay with him for a little bit while I look around for a Ditto?" Hazard looked at Bambi and blinked, before giggling and hugging the girl's head with her wings. Obviously, she was way too embarrassed~

But of course, Periculum had to but in, because he's a jerk. He growled up at Hazard, who frowned and ruffled her feathers indignantly. She fluttered down from Amber's shoulder, squawked at Perry in an upset way, and then looked at the Rufflet. She smiled, took the flower in her beak, and then stuck it in her eggshell-diaper. Obviously, it's where she kept her important things. Like a few of her mother's feathers, and this flower. She smiled and clicked happily in her throat, before plopping down in front of him.

Bambi smiled. "Alright, boys... let's leave these two to themselves," she told her Pokemon with a smile. She didn't need to address Venia because she was the only one that wasn't causing trouble, and was still draped around Amber's shoulders anyway.

Amber turned, winked at Hazard, and then started to walk away. Obviously, she was going to come back for her Pokemon, but she would leave those two to flirt for a bit. Periculum immediately followed Bambi, as did Coraggio and Skye. Lucifer, on the other hand, followed, but did so hesitantly. He was a little worried about Hazard, is all.

So... off to find another Pokemon then!

Amber blinked and frowned. She really... did not know how that Stantler knew she was looking for a Ditto. Whatever, though. And to her, it didn't matter, because she would eventually find one anyway.

So, followed by her pissy-attitude boy Pokemon, she continued on, searching for a nice Pokemon to capture, or just train against. Either one would be perfectly fine~

So... yeah. Amber didn't care that it wasn't attacking.

...so....

"Periculum, Dragon Rage." Perry grinned and did as he was told with a happy bounce in his step. His chest glowed and energy spiraled faintly around it, before the ball shot up through his throat and shoved its way out of his mouth. The ball ripped through the air and shot towards the innocent Cleffa, only milliseconds away from pummeling the poor thing...

What was Amber thinking? Probably just training.

And probably just my mood being Kill it now.

Amber blinked when she saw all the Ditto. She grinned, unable to help herself. After all, there was maybe a dozen of them!

"Perry, Dragon Rage! Venia, Thundershock! Lucifer, Scratch! Coraggio, Fire Fang! Skye, Bite!" she commanded, watching her five Pokemon get to work.

Periculum and Skye would do the most damage, and Amber knew that. They would be taking out more than one, probably...

All at once, her Pokemon charged into battle. Venia slithered along, releasing pulses of static energy waves. Periculum bounced around, giggling like an idiot, blasting his Dragon Rage ball everywhere he could. Lucifer growled and ran over, trying to Scratch one of the blobs. That may not work so well, but he was only level five. Give him some credit. :P Skye, on the other hand, would probably do quite some, being level ten. The oddly-colored Trapinch felt a connection with the oddly-colored Ditto, however. It would make sure not to bite that one.

Amber rolled her eyes. "Perry, Dragon rage on the fake Dratini. Skye, you bite the fake Axew." She was smart enough to know how these Dittos went down.

Deciding to push her luck... a lot, she threw one of the two of her spare Pokeballs at one of the fainted, normal Pink Ditto. If she could catch both, that would be amazing, and well.... yeah. Whatever. Although, she believed she could catch the Ditto if it was hanging from a tree.

Periculum squealed, reared up, and blasted the fake Dratini with Dragon Rage. Skye howled and charged, attempting to chomp down on the fake Axew.

(I'm just gonna say... Perry and Skye leveled twice because they took two out, and everyone else leveled once because they took one out. :D)

Amber squealed and picked up the Pokeball, pocketing it immediately. And here's the thing... Skye's ability, Arena Trap, kept that Shiny Ditto from fleeing, so she was DEFINITELY going to be able to catch it! WOOOHOOO!

Excited out of her mind, she grinned. "Venia, use Thunderwave!" Venia cried out and did as she was told, slithering towards the Ditto or... Makuhita* and pushing waves of static electricity towards it.

The pink Ditto would be called Thing 1. If she caught this shiny one, it would be called Thing 2.

(Sorry...)
The aqua shaded Ditto, or the Shiny Makuhita, was surrounded by the sparks of energy. It was suddenly paralyzed. "Maku!" it screeched as it suddenly tranformed into a slithery Stunfisk. It was lightly paralyzed from the Thunderwave, but it was still slightly flexible. In a desperate attempt to attack Dratini back, it used a strong Thundershock. The Ditto was struggling to now recharge it's energy...

(I'm just sayin' I'll add 'em on. :3 No biggie.)

Amber frowned. "Lucifer, Scratch 'im!" Lucifer the Axew cried out and ran towards the shiny Stunfisk, his claws out and ready to strike.

Venia slithered back, trying to get away from the Thundershock, but alas, the snake wasn't faster than a bolt of lightning. She squeaked as the electricity tried to run through her body. However, it didn't hurt that bad because Electric moves had little effect on dragons.

Suddenly the Maggyo or Ditto jolted, it was stunned from it's earlier paralysis. The Scratch hit it and it reverted to it's original gelatine form. "Itto!" it screeched as it paniced and attempted to run away, but Skye's ability had it trapped. Instead, it just layed on the floor and fainted.
It was exausted...

Amber watched, unable to believe what she just witnessed.

"ALRIGHT!" she cheered, jumping up and down. This was amazing! TWO Ditto, and ONE of them shiny! WOOOOOHOOOOO! Amber grinned and reached into her bag as fast as she could, before throwing that puppy at that blue ditto.

Lucifer squealed happily and jumped up and down.

(One level for Luci, one for Venia.)

Wiggle, wiggle, click!

Spoiler:

You had just got a new member of your team, but what about the one you'd left behind...?

Amber cheered as her Ditto was moved to her PC automatically. She would have to get him later... or it*. As a breeder, she never forgot her babies. <3

"Alright guys, let's go get Hazard," she told them, turning around and walking in the direction she came from. Perry rolled his eyes and followed. Everyone else, except Coraggio, ran ahead eagerly, wanting to meet their friend again. Coraggio had decided to keep acting cool and stick behind.

It didn't take too long to get back. Bambi smiled when she heard her Vullaby chirping happily. "Hazard, have a good time?" she asked. Hazard just kept on chirping. Maybe she was too happy with this Rufflet...?

Rufflet was clucking lovingly back. This brought a whole new meaning to the phrase lovebirds! Rufflet was singing and spinning around, acting like a clown to get Vullaby to laugh. Rufflet approached you, cautiously. He pinted at Vullaby with his beak, and made a happy look on his little face, it looked like he was trying to say that he loved her! You couldn't possibly split the pair up. Could you?!

Actually, Amber could have totally separated them. Hazard would have her first broken heart, and would probably dislike her trainer forever.

But Bambi wasn't THAT cold. She sighed and smiled when she saw them. She reached into her bag, took out her last Pokeball, and set it on the ground in front of them. If that Rufflet wanted to be with Hazard, he would have to come with them. She wasn't releasing Hazard. It just wasn't an option.
