"And the battles will be good. I need to win some to get my water pokemon stronger against....Wet Willie." She cringed at the name.</span>

<span style='color:gray'>"All right then, let's get going! You can come, too, if you want to, mister... uh.... Abra man... yeah, um, that reminds me. I didn't really catch any of your names. I'm Silver, by the way," he suggested, beginning to walk down the path and implying that they should do the same.</span>
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

<span style='color:orange'>"And I'm your Stevenson. I mean, I'm Stevenson." said Stevenson, falling into a cliche' for a moment there. " Well, while everyone has their pokemon out, I suppose mine could use air." he threw to pokeballs on the ground, and out popped a lotad and a numel.</span>

Brutum Fulmen: (senseless thunderbolt) This phrase, coined by Pliny the elder, is used to refer to an empty threat.

((Bwa? What was THAT all about? I know I haven't posted in a few days, but I was waiting for everyone to post their thing and then it snowed so... yeah. Ignoring that...))
<span style='color:gray'>"Nah... when I said 'not too long' I meant, 'maybe an hour'. And that's only because we're not going to follow the... main... road for the whole time. I swear, they must have built these roads just so they could get a laugh out of people that aren't from around here and spend days going the long way..." he mused. After a little longer on the... main... road, I say 'main' reluctantly because it was still a dirt road and still through a pretty dense forest, Silver pushed back a few low hanging branches to show a thinner path that was more covered over with plants than the one they were already on. "Be careful - there are some thorns, but it takes half as long as following the regular path. Plus... if we're gonna come across any Pokemon at all, it'll be out here."</span>
((In other words, if any of you want to catch a Pokemon, go ahead. Just make it something that you'd expect to see in a forest, all right? Like a Shroomish or a Caterpie or something.))

<span style='color:pink'>"Well, I'll take this chance to train my pokemon. Well, only Mud-chan can come out since Horse-chan needs water..." Opal shrugged as she spotted a Zigzagoon.
"Go, Mud-chan!" She sent out her mudkip. "Use water gun till we win!" She ordered. In no time, Mudkip won against the zigzagoon.
"Ha! That was nothing. Oh look! A whole pack of them! Attack Mud-cahn! Ahahaha!" Opal laughed as she sent onto a rampage.</span>

((Well yeah, I got that -since she kind of literally DROPPED out- I just didn't get why she was leaving, and... why she did so by falling in a ditch :blink: ))
<span style='color:gray'>"Cut that out! Those things aren't as common here as they are in, like, Hoenn or something! You're lucky to have found any Pokemon at all... if you just go around killing anything that comes your way, it'll tell all its Pokemon friends to avoid humans at all costs and we'll never have any luck finding Pokemon outside the reservations. But you can go ahead and knock out any taillows you may come across... I don't think anyone would mind if THEY went extinct. They've got that loud, obnoxious cry, and they always build their nests on the door and... erg." Silver explained. He seemed to be doing that a lot lately. Which was strange, since he was usually the one doing stupid stuff...
Before they moved on, Silver threw a Pokeball at the Zigzagoon that Opal had knocked out, since he only had one Pokemon with him anyway. Due to the lack of whatever weird thing made the unconscious, wild Pokemon disappear, it was much more convenient to knock them out completely before attempting the catch, because it couldn't exactly put up a fight and you'd still get the experience. It wouldn't like you much, but that problem can be fixed with time...</span>

(( sorry...I guess you wouldn't get that joke that side of the globe...its a classic joke where I come from. A' what happened to that character? You never see him anymore.', 'must have fell down a drainage ditch or something'. I'm dropping out because I have a very limited time on the internet for the next few weeks. You may find I don't post as much as well as the fact I may not post in the ROM RP as much either. I need to cut down on what threads I need to view for a while. Sorry gang ))

"<span style='color:orange'>Zigzagoons huh? I guess if we find any more Gomez can have a go..." His Numel seemed happy at this remark. at this point his Lotad had gotten tired since his legs are, like, an inch long, and was riding on his numel's back.</span>

<span style='color:red'>Kain watched Shauni vanish into the sandy horizon after she finally got what she needed. He almost hoped that Shauni might cross paths with him again...</span>
Prof. Krane was about to scurry off <span style='color:red'>when Kain showed him the runty little Eevee with the slighty scruffy coat.
"... Some trainer lost this kritter." Kain said flatly, attempting to hide his growing fondness for the pokemon.</span>
"That? Keep him."
<span style='color:red'>Kain looked at Professor Krane incredulously. "What?"</span>
"Keep him. That critter's been hanging around this lab for weeks and the new trainers have been harrassing the poor thing. He refuses to get into a pokeball and is more skittish than a skitty in a room full of rocking chairs. On top of that, no one wants an Eevee that runty..."
<span style='color:red'>Kain looked at the runt in his arms. He had to admit that the critter had hit a soft spot in Kain's heart.
"You ain't gonna battle, ya hear, Kritter?" he sternly told the Eevee.
"Eewee!" Kritter sounded relieved.
"Heh... yeah. You're just a pet..." he scratched the runt behind his ears, "I'll buy ya a collar or somethin' at the PokeMart before we head out, okay?"
"Ee!" Kritter answered and hopped on Kain's shoulder.
"... That's a bit uncomfortable, but I guess it's okay for you to sit there..."</span>
((... and so Kain began his quest... with a pet. ))

Neo was in close look out for any worm-like movement in the forest. Then he spotted something green and moving. Neo left the path and entered into the forest. His Eevee following behind. He didn't have to travel far when he spotted the Caterpie. <span style='color:green'>"Go Eevee, use Tackle!"</span> His Eevee charged the unsapecting Caterpie and catching it off guard made a direct hit on it sending it flying abit. It looked dazed so Neo quickly tossed a ball at it and easly caught it. Neo quickly headed back to the group.
