TAGGING: Kurt Hummel TIMELINE: August 15, 2015 SETTING: Safari Zone, Evening SUMMARY: It seemed at first glance to be a very vicious-- bubble? ADDITIONAL NOTES: Written for a KIP Spawn.
Kurt had gone to the Safari Zone pretty much every day of the trip. He wasn’t sure why, but he was determined to add a new Pokemon to his team. Maybe it had been the realization that he only had two types of Pokemon at his disposal; what kind of trainer only had two types? He needed to diversify if he wanted to succeed as a coordinator.
He had, of course, been tempted by the Smeargle and the Electrike that he had encountered, but catching either of those Pokemon would have been counterproductive, wouldn’t it? So he set off for the zone again, knowing that this would be one of the last few times he would be able to go until next month.
Kurt set out early in the morning, before the sun had even risen. He figured that going at different times of day would expose him to a wider variety of Pokemon. By the time the sun had risen, though, he was hot and sweaty, ready to give up. He took a detour off the path to sit by the river where he had watched a Lotad swimming around the day before. He had just broken through the trees when he heard the sound of something disrupting the water. He had just enough time to let out a sound of surprise before something solid bounced off his chest. It seemed at first glance to be a very vicious-- bubble?
He took a step back, looking down at the little Pokemon that landed right in front of him. It was a tiny Azurill, maybe twice the size of Java-- which wasn’t saying much, considering how small his little spider Pokemon was. It stared up at him with big eyes, bouncing on it’s tail before launching it up to eye level with Kurt a few times, letting out a little ‘mmf!’ sound with each bounce, before letting out a stream of little bubbles into Kurt’s face.
He giggled, the bubbles obviously not an attack but the Pokemon’s attempt at playing with him. He dug through his bag, pulling out one of the poffins that he had brought with him before sitting on a rock near the river bank. He broke off a small piece, bite sized for the baby Pokemon before offering it to her. She bounced over to him, greedily eating the little treat before knocking it out of his hand, taking bites of it after it had landed on the ground. Chuckling, he reached out to rub her head gently.
The man continued to feed her bits of food for a good while, making a game out of it and hiding the little bites in his hand and making her choose which one it was in. Finally, she seemed to tire, yawning our a little ‘riiii’ sound before bouncing into his lap, settling in for a nap. Kurt blinked in surprise, rubbing his fingers over the mouse Pokemon’s blue fur.
“Would you like to stay with me?” he asked, hoping that the baby Pokemon would understand him. He received what he assumed was an affirmative sound in response. Quietly, he pulled out a Pokeball, and captured the Azurill.
