Training Room 13.
Clancy wasn't really superstitious but he was aware of the superstition, and more than anything, it amused him. As far as he was concerned, this was his -lucky- day, and meeting Aulus in training room 13 was just a bloody fantastic location to meet what was making this is lucky day.
He already had the dark ball- he'd gone and picked it up earlier- and had restrained himself from meeting its occupant thus far, waiting for Aulus to be available, but now...
Now he was getting impatient, despite not having waited very long.
He'd gotten Clerval out to train, believing he'd lost again Lex's Joltik because he wasn't tough enough, and had him working on some automated training dummies....
But he was getting impatient.
He wasn't interested, wasn't really paying attention, to the Pikachu's efforts; his eyes kept roving back to the dark ball he'd placed on a bench, on top of his stuff...
Finally, he snapped, and walked toward it; he wanted to meet his monster... His right hand reached for the ball, and the button...

Aulus was not looking forward to this. At all.
He wasn't superstitious either but he didn't need the help of training room thirteen to know that this Boded. This was not for supernatural reasons of course, nope, this was for red-haired idiot shaped reasons. Ugh.
For this training session he had decided to bring along Tortie, Red, Paul, Discord, Killer, and Puck; between them they ought to be able to contain a pissed off Feraligatr without anyone getting hurt, including the Feraligatr. Poor damn Feraligatr, it could have been a perfectly normal Feraligatr but no, Clancy wanted himself a monster.
Aulus pushed open the door of the training room, a dark scowl already pulling his hard features into vicious lines. "Alright, let's get this over w-"

Aulus happened to enter right as Clancy pushed the button to release the Feraligatr. He was grinning, quite pleased, at the initial sight of the creature, which he got for all but a second before the water typed fixed him in her sights and roared, drenching him in spittle.
Even Clancy was smart enough that a pokémon roaring at him like that was probably not a friendly hello.
His smile froze and his eyes bugged, and he scrambled back- managing to drop the ball, quite literally, as he went- his eyes searching for the door... But that was between him and his new pokémon.
"Bad gal! Lass, stay! Stop that!" He commanded the still growling and roaring, and lumbering after him water type. She registered two humans in the room and turned her head to look from Clancy to Aulus.
Clerval was staring, looking rather stunned to see just what kind of team mate Clancy had gotten him... He was stunned enough that he'd forgotten to use any attacks at first, but he did try a thundershock when it looked between the humans. This caused the Feraligatr to look Clerval's way after suffering the shock; she'd felt it but... it had simply seemed to make her angrier. Clerval edged toward where Clancy had just taken cover, ready to shock again, but not willing to let the water type get too close.
"See! Ya behave or the yella rat'll bloody shock you again!" Clancy called, before looking to Aulus from his position, now hidden behind one of the training dummies that Clerval had been using. "Uh. I got me Furglador! Little 'elp?"
The Feraligatr decided to roar at Aulus, as if daring him.

"Yeah! I got 'er! But she's so bloody... angry! Wot th' 'ell's wrong with her?" Clancy called back, tentatively creeping out from behind the dummy... He could edge along the wall to get over there, he thought... The water type was clearly pretty occupied with the pokémon for now.
<<... Yes. He's not-oops,>> Cobalt ducked to allow the tail to swing overhead << He's not a smart one. I don't believe he's given me a correct attack yet... Oh, no, he got 'bite' but I think that might have been accidental.>>
<< Shouldn't we be listening for him in case he tells us to attack more?>> Clerval piped up, almost reprimanding Cobalt; he didn't like Clancy either, but he always tried to obey anyway.
The, as-yet-unnamed, water beast gave another roar and swiped her tail again, then roared, building up a rage attack.
<> Clerval groaned. << Could we not reason with her? She's supposed to be on our team...>> He did not get, nor like, this 'dark ball' thing.

"I told you!" Aulus snarled at Clancy, reaching to his belt to select another pokeball; Killer appeared and surveyed the brewing fight with apparent glee. "I told you what they were like, but were you listening? No, you bloody weren't were you? This is what a dark pokemon is; rage, violence, and that is all they can ever be. The best you can hope for is to gain its respect by proving to it that you're stronger than it is and that by listening to you it gets to fight more." It was the thoughtlessness that enraged him more than anything else. Oh he didn't like people who chose to have a dark pokemon but if they understood what they were doing he could at least come close to squaring it with himself. This idiot? He just hadn't listened, hadn't cared about anything else once he'd heard 'powerful'.
<> Tortie agreed with Cobalt snidely with an unimpressed glance at Clancy. <yet,>> she continued to Clerval. <>
As the pokemon spoke Aulus considered vaguely that he should have brought Rose or Juno along, he'd got used to translations and so not knowing what was being said was a bit unsettling. Still, he trusted Tortie to be talking sense. "Come on then," he snapped a Clancy with a jerk of his head at the raging water type, "direct your pokemon to fight her. And you can stop worrying about your own hide, Killer there will protect you from any attack that comes your way. Right Killer?"
Killer sighed slightly. <> He'd much rather join in with the fight but apparently that was not an option.

"How the bloody 'ell?! I'm s'posed to prove I'm strong than that?! I 'ate to say this I ain't bloody anywhere near as bloomin' strong as a Fargybargy!"
He was, at least, somewhat listening to Aulus though, and heard the bit about directing his pokémon to beat her... "OH! That kinda strong! I can bloody do that a'right! Clerval, 'nother shocky thing! Cobalt, uh... Bite!"
<< You know, I don't think he actually /remembers/ my other attacks...>> Cobalt sighed, before lunging, and then drawing back, just before the Pikachu sent a Thundershock at the beast.
<< We have to listen to him because he's the boss; we were put with him, so we obey him...>>
<< Speak for yourself! If he tells me something stupid, I ignore it...>>
<>
<>
The Feraligatr hadn't fainted yet, but she hadn't enjoyed the attacks, and was now directing her rage attack at Cobalt, who was sent sprawling, but was quickly back up, if a little further back from the water type now.
"I think I bloody weakened 'er!" Clancy called, a little confident suddenly, as though it really had been -him- doing the attacks...

"Ooh! That sounds bloody awesome!" Clancy missed the point entirely, and flinched, just about keeping himself from diving back behind cover, when the Feraligatr roared his way. They just had to beat her and then she'd behave and he'd put her back in her ball... Ball. Where was the ball? At the opposite wall, resting beneath the bench, where it had rolled, was the ball... Clancy had a thought. "She ain't jus' actin' out 'cuz I dropped 'er bloody ball on ground is she? Oh! You two! Do ya Thundery thing 'gain, and give 'er 'nother bite!"
<< Another bite... Of course. I actually have Feint, Quick Attack, and Pursuit at my disposal but he wants Bite. Always Bite.>> Still, she supposed that was probably what she'd have chosen anyway, and acted to deliver.
Clerval gave a satisfied nod, seeing it as her 'obeying instructions', and then delivered his own Thundershock.
The Feraligatr roared in anger.. and wobbled. And wobbled again. She shook her head furiously though, as though using the anger as fuel, hanging on to the last bit of energy. Her rage attack lashed out, claws and tail furiously sweeping. Cobalt dodged, alarmed, but Clerval didn't realize just how far the tail swipe would reach, and was hit across the room.
"Ain't no time for bloody lyin' down, yella rat! She ain't down yet!"

"Aye I know! 'S bloody awful!" Clancy 'agreed' with Aulus regarding respect going both ways.
Clerval shook his head as he got up, looking a little dazed. It had been quite a hard hit and quite a flight, and he was only in little better shape than the Feraligatr now.
"Get it again!"
The Pikachu heard and directed one last Thundershock toward the big crocodile-like pokémon.
Cobalt, understanding just how weakened the beast was, took a step back. And then another. Just in case. She didn't want to be 'taken out' when it fell.
The angry blue starter evolution roared in pain, anger, and frustration as the thundershock took the last of her energy. She lashed her tail, snarled, swiped her claws, and fell forward, finally unable to go any further.
Clancy looked wide-eyed at the beast, but didn't approach. "Blimey..."

"Respect. Bloody 'avin' it go both. 'S a hassle." Clancy replied, still staring at the big water type before he was prompted to return her to her ball. He crossed the room, almost scurrying, really, to where the ball had rolled, quickly activating it and calling the downed Feraligatr back.
"Restraints, 'ey? How we gonna get 'em on her though? D'ya think callin' her back'd work well 'nuff?" His eyes widened as he was told he should feed it, though. "'S even that safe? She ain't gonna bloody fire water at me t' knock me down 'r summat is she? Shouldn't I name 'er first 'r summat? Ain't that one o' them weird trainer-bondin' things?"
Clerval breathed a sigh of relief and, heavily, sat down, looking rather concerned. << I do not look forward to workin' with her...>>
<< She certainly doesn't seem like much of a team player.>> Cobalt agreed, but seemed less concerned.
