Never Fear! Splendid is Here!

[Splendid Keagan]

Faster than a speeding bullet. More ferocious than a bloodthirsty Arcanine...

Or something like that. Splendid bounded down the path to the lab, excited to be stretching his legs after the long ride here. First a train ride across Johto. Then a plane ride. Then a boat ride, and then a short shuttle/tram ride. Way too much sitting. Not enough doing. Not so much Splendid's style.

He was definitely ready for this upcoming test. He couldn't wait to meet his partner in, not crime, but a quest for glory. For fame. To be a superhero. He came to a stop in front of the lab door, a little bounce in his step. Oh, how exciting! And he'd heard Flakky was teaching here now, so there was that to look forward to, too. Maybe she'd even be in here! Probably not, though. He hoped not, anyway. He'd be too busy staring at her...assets... to do well.

Opening the door, he smiled huge, and hollered, "Hello! I'm Splendid, and I'm here to beast through this test!"

[Nurse Butler]

"Another weird one!" The nurse came out with her usual lab attire. A japanese kimono the had a longated slit on the left side, forcing the leg to be exposed. The sleeves were also long, covering her wrists & stopping at he knuckles. She had all black wedges to complete the outfit. Her cleavage...More than exposed. "Time for another test." She said, entering slowly from the back room.

"I am the school nurse. You may call me Nurse Butler. I'll be testing you to decide what rank you'll have & giving you a starter." She said, with her eyes confidently closed as she took slow and silent steps towards the boy. She the pointed to the side of her, at a shiny silver table. "Each of those contains a pokemon you can use for testing. Choose one. The note card in front of each will tell you what moves it has." She wrapped up, opening her eyes. "And why the hell are you wearing that thing around your eyes? You must wanna be a hero..." She muttered.

"Anyway, hurry up. I have things to do & boys to molest people to see or meet." She said in an impatient tone. This strange boy was about to have a test. He should be more serious, but of course it might just be a part of who he really was. Besides, he was kinda cute so she'd let it slide.

[Splendid Keagan]

Instead of being insulted at being called weird, Splendid just stared. Holy cow, he got a gorgeous lady to test him. He barely even heard her speaking. He could only think about two things. Boobs and sex. The first was in plain sight, and his heart started beating like mad. He was almost certain he'd pass out. He thought he might tear up, actually, when she said she was the nurse.

Still, the words rank and starter brought him back into his own right mind, and he managed to look over the cards to make a choice. Of course, he couldn't use a Pokemon that was un-super hero like. Favoring the grass-types due to his past experiences with a Bulbasaur, he picked the Snivy. It looked the most beast, sure to get him a good rank.

"Oh! I do want to be a hero, Nurse Butler!" Splendid exclaimed at her words. "Someday, I'll be the best superhero ever. There'll be comics and movies about me. I'll be bigger than Superman! And, of course, have way cooler video games than him!" He would've rambled on forever, if she hadn't told him to hurry up. Also, he would have wanted her to molest him.

"Right! Snivy, go!" He sort of wished he had a hat to turn around, all the cool trainers did that, right?

[Nurse Butler]

"Haha." The nurse giggled. She looked at the boy and gave a slight smile. He had so much promise & a truly positive spirit. "How adorable. I hope you achieve it all." She said, looking at him with a kinder smile. "Snivy huh?" She asked herself in a low mumble. "Lets go!" She tossed a random pokeball into the air. Out cam a purple two tailed monkey. "Ambi!" The ambipom cried.

"You have the first move kid. Make it count." She noted to him. Hopefully he'd do better than some of the students of the past. Eventually she'd be able to tell. But for now, she'd have to wait for him to make a move.

[Splendid Keagan]

Splendid nodded, staring at Ambipom for a second. It was a normal type, he knew that much. It looked pretty cool, but he'd never had much interest in it. It didn't seem like a super hero's Pokemon to him. "Right, right! First move. Okay..." He trailed off, looking at the card and frowning a bit for a second or two. "Snivy! Start off with a Leech Seed!"

The little snake lizard smirked and shot off a few seeds from...wherever they came from on him. Splendid didn't know exactly how that worked, nor was he sure he wanted to know.

[Nurse Butler]

"Use swift!" The nurse commanded the tester. The monkey jumped back as its tails went forward & got into position. "Ambi!" It cried, flinging its two tails forward. The tails released an army of golden stars. Each one countering a seed. Fortunately, the attack had been enough to counter, and left a few to hit the snivy. Sadly, it was only two.

[Splendid Keagan]

Though he didn't know beforehand, Splendid quickly realized that Swift wasn't going to miss. He wasn't the most informed student ever, but he would make up for it with passion. Snivy got hit, and almost fell over, but managed to keep it's feet.

"Leech Seed again!" He hoped it would hit this time, because he could use the advantage of it. If it didn't plant this time, though, he would have to try something else. He couldn't just keep doing the same thing. He'd look stupid. He knew if this was more of a contest based thing, he'd already be losing horribly.

[Nurse Butler]

"Ambi!" The monkey watched the stars land. His grin grew to cover & over whelm most of his face. "Ambi!" It called out, ready to do more than just that. The pokemon stared at the snivy, as it took the hits, ready to beat it up some more. "Leech sede!" The other trainer commanded. Nurse Butler barely paying attention, looked at the field once more. "Oh yeah...A test..." She muttered under her breath.

"Ambi--" She was rudely cut off by the incoming attack. She hadnt payed enough attention in the first place, nor had shreaacted fast enough to call out the next attack, for the ambipom to evade, or for the monkey to at least prepare for the attack. This trainer was no rookie, maybe he was a candidate to become a hero one day. "Pom!" The monkey became annoyed, struck by the leech seed. "Ambi!" It cried out, having its energy sucked away. "Use double hit!" She told the monkey. The two tailed purple pokemon obeyed and charged forward, bulleting its tails forward at the little grass type.

[Splendid Keagan]

Splendid fist pumped in delight at the hit. Finally! They had done it! Suddenly, though, the Ambipom was rushing at the Snivy, and Splendid's brain could barely keep up. "Ahh!" He shouted, nervous-Splendid speak for MOVE!

Snivy wasn't stupid, though. He wasn't just going to stand there and take it like Faline does. He moved, and only one hit got him, knocking him back on his bum. He got back up, though, and looked at Splendid for a next command.

"Right, Leaf Tornado!"

The Snivy dipped it's head quickly, and twirled around as it released it's leaves into a big tornado, aimed right at the monkey.

[Nurse Butler]

"Ambipom!" The monkey cheered, striking the snivy onto the ground. The creature seemed to have been proud of its double hit attack that led to its evolution. "Pom!" It cheered further. "Dont get cocky. Just remain confident." The nurse nagged her testing pokemon. The monkey was strong enough to stand against the incoming attacks, but the nurse didnt want to take the risk.

As the leaves fired at the monkey, the nurse & pokemon went on the defensive & would plot out the next step once more. "Use swift to counter!" She commanded firmly. The monkey fired two powerful streams of stars once more at the snivy, slashing through the fortress of leaves. A few remained to strike once more. "Nice try." The nurse gave props to the student. He was doing pretty good.

[Splendid Keagan]

Instead of bouncing around like an idiot, the Snivy turned his nose up as though to show he was more mature than the Ambipom. Unfortunately, he did so as the swift was coming.

"Moo---" Splendid started, but then Snivy got hit. Ouch. The little green fellow pulled himself up off the ground, hurt but not lacking in health, especially because of the leech seed. "Okay, you're fine, right? Hurry forward and use Leaf Blade!"

Snivy reluctantly took off towards Ambipom, ready to swipe the other Pokemon with a 'blade'. It knew any attack would hurt from that close.

[Nurse Butler]

"Dont get to happy there." The nurse reffered to the grin on the monkey's face. "Abi!" It replied to her annoyance from its fun. The ambipom jumped back a bit to make some space, ready to take more orders. The snivy was still on its feet, making this little game more of a chall;enge for the ambipom!

The purple monkey screeched, taking the leaf blade to the torso. "Pom!" It called out from the blow. The monkey returned to its feet, ready to deal more damage than it had already done. It then slightly turned its head, annoyed with its temp trainer doing absolutely nothing about being struck by the leaf blade. The pokemon stood firm, awaiting the nurse's commands. "I told you to not be cocky." She scolded. The two tailed monkey threw its hands, ignoring her comment. "Well, use double hit!" She demanded, the monkey lunged its tail forward at the snivy!

[Splendid Keagan]

Splendid beamed as they made another hit. Awesome. They were making some progress. Just as she was scolding her Pokemon for being cocky, though, it seemed like Splendid was getting a big head. He didn't even notice her next command until it was too late.

The monkey hit Snivy hard with it's tail, and the poor little grass-type was sort of crushed. Crap. Would he have to pay for that? "Snivy! Get up!" Unfortunately, it didn't look like the little creature was in any state to get up. Still, it had done a good job against an evolved Pokemon.

[Nurse Butler]

"Oh poo." Simca stated, her boobs bouncing, as she walked over to the pokemon. "I cant return you in this condition." The little snivy appeared to have taken a bad beating. "Au!" Naughty called out, running from the back room. "Dino!" Nice finished, running by its side. The two came to the nurses opposite sides, while she squated down to the pokemon. "Lets use a nice heal pulse." She told the two. Pushing her legs upward to stand, Simca stood straight. "Ambipom, I hope to work with you once more." She smiled at the monkey, returning it to its mobile home.

"As for you." She began, turning to her side to look at the boy. "Explain this hero business. Im honestly rather interested, your also cute for a weird kid." She smiled, giving a harsh comment to his mannerisms.

[Splendid Keagan]

Splendid gulped, noticeably going red in the face. There wasn't much left to the imagination as he tried futilely to keep his eyes off her breasts. "Ah, um." He stammered, trying to get something coherent out. "I'm sorry he got hurt. Glad he's okay."

Actually, he thought, that was how most of his superhero missions ended, with that same exact apology. Sometimes it went to say I'm sorry I made it worse for you, but usually someone intervened to fix things. That's why he needed some companions to help him out. Strong ones. Friends and allies, but battle partners to help him keep others from getting hurt. After all, it wouldn't be the Fantastic Four without four of them.

He sort of laughed at getting called a weird kid. Well, that was normal, too. He didn't mind. "Well, the way I figure it, the world is a pretty rotten place sometimes. I just want to fix it all up. Make it a happier, safer place. On my own, I don't have any cool powers, but teamed up with Pokemon...We could do anything!"

[Nurse Butler]

"How...Interesting. If you ever need anything, and I mean, anything I'll be more than happy to help you out." The nurse stressed to the boy. She was intrigued by his happy & more peaceful than expected thoughts. This boy...Damn sure was strange...But was worth it. The nurse wouldnt mind helping him out every so often, and would help him with practice if he needed it. "And dont worry." Simca told the boy, gently taking his pokeball away. "Return." She told the pokemon, bringing it back to its pokeball. She placed the pokeball in between her bosom's, along with ambipom's ball as well.

"You did pretty good kid, get better." She told him, taking the pokeballs back to the room. She then returned ten minutes later, with three pokeballs. "Here you go. Choose one!" She told him, explaining his rank & starters. "You will be a yellow dormer. You deserve it. If you kept going, Im sure might have made it higher, but you still did good nonetheless. You have a choice of these three. Ducklett, Slugma, or minun." She held her hand out, giving him the options.

[Splendid Keagan]

Splendid grinned. He was off to a good start here! The barely dressed nurse liked him and had offered him help. "I'll be sure to come to you with anything." Splendid replied, smirking a little. He watched with huge eyes as she returned the Snivy and then put the pokeball...Oh my God...

He swallowed hard, trying hard to keep focused on what she was saying, but it was hard. Yellow dorm. He got that. He needed to get better. He was always trying to do that. "Thank you, you really think I've got talent?" Very few people told him that. He looked over the choices, and was unsure of whether he wanted Ducklett or Slugma. Both were cute and both would be very helpful. In the end, though, he chose Slugma, because it looked pretty bad ass and every superhero needed to look that cool. "Thank you, again!" He smiled, taking the pokeball and waving as he set out for his new adventures at the academy.
