✦ Victory Road Battle Post ✦
Meet me in the parking lot behind the Dedenny's in thirty minutes if you want an asskicking.

This is a catchall for the purpose of allowing for more Pokémon battles! Think of it kind of like an IC inbox post, except instead of interaction over the Pokégear it's in-person battle threads. Go ahead and let me know below if you want a battle and any specific ideas you might have (you can also contact me any time at mister_inkwell). You're also welcome to just go ahead and post a top-level if Ford and your character are in the same general area and you want to jump directly to a call-out. I don't mind spontaneous battles! Someone jumping out at you from the shadows unexpectedly and trying to kick your ass is kind of a staple of the franchise after all.

I've also put together a little form you can fill out if you want to quickly get across the kind of battle you're looking for and/or need a jumping-off point.

<b>Preferred Pokémon Levels:</b> Anything goes, close level gap (no greater than 15 or so), exact level only. <b>Preferred Team Size:</b> Anything goes, same number (six on six, three on three, two on two, etc). <b>Items Allowed:</b> Yes/No and if yes, what kind. <b>Mega Evolution Allowed:</b> Yes/No. <b>Other Specifics:</b> Anything else you might want to add, like a specific goal for the thread (do you really want your character to win for development reasons? Do you want your Rocket to try and steal the Pokémon they're battling against? That goes here!).
Preferred Pokémon Levels: I personally prefer a close level gap so the battle isn't super one-sided, unless it being super one-sided is the point of the thread.
Preferred Team Size: I like three on three or two on two best for roleplay purposes (a six on six battle would take quite some time!), but I'll roll with whatever.
Items Allowed: I'm good with both held items and healing items but it's very easy to find a reason for Ford not to use them if you don't want them.
Mega Evolution Allowed: I'm fine with this whether or not Ford has his Abomasnow with him.
Other Specifics: Ford's location and current team are both open to tweaking. He'd be willing to take a couple of warps or swap out some of his team members to be more level-appropriate in cases where the battle is agreed on beforehand. For random challenges on the street, what you see is what you get. I'm also totally fine with Rockets attempting to steal his Pokémon, though actual success will need to be discussed.

Something BUGGING you, Pines?

[toothaches]

i need your help

That's what Maurice's text read nearly two months after he received the little bundle of buggy joy from Ford's Monster Factory. He'd asked to meet in the park (both so that there were witnesses if he died and because there was plenty of room to run away if things went badly) and apologized about six more times before he finally stuck his 'Gear in his pocket.

And there he stood. Maurice waited under a tree wearily staring down at the pokeball in his hands. He was wearing plastic bags wrapped around his hands.

[It's around one in the morning, when suddenly Ford is gonna be hearing a faint, childlike voice in his head.]

Hey. Listen.
