Being such a hardworker, Howard somehow scraped together enough vacation time to make a special trip to the Safari Zone. This was supposed to be an area filled with exotic Pokemon, and the young trainer was eager to get started. He wasn't sure what he would find, but his faith in himself, and his Houndour was strong. At this particular moment in time, Howie found himself waist deep in weeds, moving a lot slower than he'd like, but keeping as steady of a pace as he could. Mr.Samson was not one to let a couple plants get in his way, and neither was Samantha for that matter. She kept having to hop straight up just so she could get her head above the extremely tall grass every couple of minutes. There wasn't much of a view so low to the ground... but that was okay. Howard was really hoping to run into something close enough to go after it, so stalking something from far away wasn't much of an option in this environment. “Keep your nose peeled, I have a feeling you’d smell something way sooner than I would see it in this thicket,” Howard said aloud, and pushed more grass down out in front of them both. Sambo kept creeping forward, and sniffed the air with curiosity. If something was around here, she would be determined to find it, but everything here smelled foreign. She was used to being on the coast, not in some strange jungle... but the Houndour could adjust given some time.

The pair practically stumbled over a Wild Pokemon lurking in the tall grass, but it’s goofy smiling face gave it away. At first, Howie wasn’t even sure that it was a creature, but almost as if on cue the little grinning sludge started slinking away.. but this trainer wasn’t about to let it get away that easy. “There Samantha! A Pokemon!” He pointed at the tiny pink blob, “Use your Fire Fang on it if you can get close enough!” That was all that needed to be said, and suddenly the fiery pooch was pouncing forward bearing it’s sharp teeth. The ditto screeched in pain... and then suddenly changed shape. Out of nowhere, Howard was suddenly staring at a pair of twin Houndour, except one was a weird light pink hue.
“What the heck?” Howie asked confused, but wasn’t about to let this weird trick stop his efforts of catching this ting. “Don’t back down, try another bite. Crunch that crazy thing Sammy!” The human encouraged, and even clapped a little bit. He was proud of his first partner, and had faith she could beat this opponent even if it tried to copy her. Before Sambo could land her attack though, the pink dog struck out with a hard-hitting Sucker Punch! It somehow even knew his Pokemon’s attacks! Whatever this was, it was a lot tougher than it’s original bubble gum body let on. Once Sam sunk her teeth into the creature again, Howard wasted no time, and readied a single Safari Ball. He wanted this Ditto for himself, something with it’s abilities had the potential to be a great team member.

With one another fresh capture under their belt, the team was feeling quite lucky. What could stop them when both Trainer, and Pokemon were both feeling on top of the world? Nothing, that’s what. Howie happily picked up the green-tinted pokeball, and tucked it away safely in one of his pockets. A new pokemon, and a strange one at that. As they trudged further into the thickly overgrown jungle, his mind began to wander about just what that tiny little pink thing could do. Did it just copy anything that fought it? He had so many questions, and the only thing that would answer them is experience. Sam was awfully happy after another successful battle too, and wagged her little stub of a tail around wildly. “You did good back there girl, but do you think anything else could be stalking through the area?” He asked in genuine wonder, and squinted at all the compact green tones around them. There were lots of things that could be hiding all over.
His curiosity wasn’t unsatisfied for long, because after a couple of minutes something came wading out of the jungle in their direction. Another Pokemon Howard hadn’t seen before, but an intriguing one none the less. This wild creature was just as green as the plants that surrounded it, but what gave it away was it’s slow movements. There was no mistaking it now, and in seconds his hound was already sneaking over to it’s target. Apparently, Howie didn’t even need to say anything to set his starting Pokemon into action because she was practically disappearing into the environment around her. Then, with an element of surprise the Houndour leapt from the shadows so she could nail the Chespin with a well placed Feint Attack.
That was when something weird happened, even though the Chespin took damage from the hit... it huffed momentarily and recovered just a bit. Something strange was going on though, because at the same time Howie’s Houndour was whimpering like she was hurt. This was the magic of Pain Split, a move that the Rookie had been unfamiliar with up until now. “Wow, I hope that little thing isn’t hurting you too bad, what kind of sorcery is this?!” Howard told his pokemon before adding, “Try to scorch him with your fangs! Don’t let em get the upper hand!” Just as soon as the human said it, is exactly when Samantha tried to put that plan into action. A couple seconds of charging her canine fangs, and the fiery move was ready. The dog lunged forward, and let a gnarly Fire Fang sink into the grass-type’s skin. The Wild Pokemon wailed momentarily, and then literally rocketed himself right into the trainer’s Houndour. After the last round of attacks, the Chespin was feeling woozy, and stumbling even. No doubt the little guy had knocked himself silly with that last Take Down attack, and must’ve hurt himself even more than Sambo’s last attack. There wasn’t much left in him after that super effective move. Now was as good a time as any, and Howard chose to use the ball attached to his final Safari Tag. Hopefully they could add this spiky little guy to the Rookie’s roster.
