Even with the generous gift from the Neo-Nightmare, Priere knew that she only had 4 water type pokemon and 2 ice types... She heard about the upcoming Gym Leader tournament and felt like if she was going to be the Water Gym Leader, she was going to need an all Water team. So it was time to get down to business.
"Alright, let's see what I can get... I only need 2, so I'll just catch this Shellder and something else and be on my way..."
Hovering over the Freshwater Sea, Priere used her powerful water Magics upon the sea to search for a Shellder or a Cloyster. Once she found one, she was going to force it up from the sea using water magic, whether it wanted to or not.
"I'm getting my Shellder..."
At the bottom of the Freshwater sea, where a family of Shellder and Cloyster roamed, Priere's water magic would catch hold of three of them; one Shellder and two Cloyster. The three of them were asleep, mind you, so when they rose from the waters, Priere seemed to have the element of surprise on her side, fortunately.
Feeling something caught within her magic, Priere pulled up three water pokemon; two Cloyster and one Shellder.
"... Oooooh yes."
She whipped out her pokeballs, seeing that the three of them were asleep. She wouldn't mind having a Cloyster and a Shellder,so the first thing she did was throw two pokeballs; one at the Shellder and the other at the Cloyster. Hopefully she caught them.
The two pokeballs were thrown, and one would hit the Cloyster, the other the Shellder. Both of them would be captured and float in the water for a moment, shaking a bit. Because they were asleep, they apparently put up little resistance, and were captured instantly, upon which the pokeballs would float back to Priere.
The other Cloyster, however, was awoken by the sound of the clicks of the pokeballs. She was more than upset that her husband and daughter had been captured, and retaliated with a violent and powerful Spike Cannon directly at Priere.
After having captured the Shellder and Cloyster so easily, Priere was feeling mighty good about herself, now.
"Heh heh heh! Easy as--"
Until spikes shot at her like rockets, a couple flying past her face before she deflected the rest with her cuffs.
"Tch. So you really want a battle, huh? Well, I guess my new pokemon could use the experience!! Go, Meo!!"
Priere flung out the Pokeball harboring her Marill, Meo, which would appear in the waters and float joyously on her tail like a little balloon.
"Meo, take down this foolish bastard with an Iron Tail!"
Bouncing up off of her own tail and into the sky, Meo happily spun around numerous times in the air and would try to slam her shiny metallic tail upon the Cloyster's hardened body and break through.
As the Cloyster was simply not going, she released powerful jets from her body to shoot herself off along the water to safety, where in the Iron Tail would splash and create a large wave of water. This caused the Cloyster to be caught in the waves of the current, being pushed off away from the battlefield and toward the edge of the sea. Battle won, right?
Wrong. The Cloyster was still not having this, so she dove deep into the waters and down under the sea... Where she would speak to the King.
As the giant wave of water carried the Cloyster off to the horizon, Priere smirked and patted Meo on the head.
"Good job. Got rid of that pissy bastard. Well, I got my Shellder, plus a bonus Cloyster, so I might as well be out..."
Priere would let Meo stay out, since she seemed to be enjoying herself in the waters, and would simply float off toward the shore where they came. Mission accomplished.
Even though Priere thought she was safe and thought she was in the clear, the angered Cloyster had been speaking to someone all the while. A Kingdra that resided around her, deeming himself King of these parts of the sea, who was sleeping peacefully until this Cloyster came along.
King: ZZz...
Cloyster: Oh mighty King!
King, yawning as he awakens, causing a powerful whirlpool that stirred the seas thoroughly. "What is it, my child?"
Cloyster: Some trainer has come around these parts again and has taken my husband and my daughter! Can you please do something about this?
With dreary eyes and another yawn that would cause a twister above the ocean, the sleepy Kingdra accepted her plea and started toward the top of the ocean where Priere resided.
As he emerged, a terrible and powerful storm was brewing all around; from the skies to the seas, there were whirlpools and twisters every which way and every place. Confronting Priere as she tried to leave the area, it would seem as though she'd fucked up now.
Priere did indeed think that this was easy pickins, and was more than ecstatic about how she was going to train her two newest pokemon.
"Hahaha, this is gonna be awesome..."
But soon, a vicious whirlpool whipped up, as well as a violent storm.
"What the hell...?"
The famed pokemon, Kingdra, rose from the depths of the seas, confronting Priere and Meo face to face.
"... Oh..."
Her voice was full of splendor and disdain, knowing full and well what was about to happen here today.
"I guess that bitch Cloyster went to you to fight her battles, huh...? Well Meo and I are gonna knock you off your high horse, Kingdra! But first..."
Priere would wave her hand in the air for a moment, then snap her finger, the storm quieting, the waters silencing, and Meo being able to float with ease without worry of being knocked around by the current.
"There. A fair fight. Now, Meo... Rollout."
Meo would smile, saluting Priere and curling into a ball, spinning violently until she parted the waters a bit beneath her from the force of her spin. She'd ride along the top of the water as if it were solid terrain and rush toward the Kingdra at a high speed.
The Kingdra was ready to easily tear through the feeble human and her Marill, seeing no threat with them at all... Until she calmed and quieted the entire storm that brewed across the whole sea.
What?
That was all he could fathom to think, as a storm HE created was silenced so easily. As such, he knew that these two would be more than enough for him, and he could see why he was needed...
So be it then...
As the little Marill used its cute Rollout attack, the Kingdra would breath in and release a powerful forceful gust of pure destructive power through its mighty shout; a Dragon Pulse to blow this Marill out of its Rollout and back to its trainer.
Meo could feel that she was not moving forward anymore, but instead, moving very swiftly backward from the power of the Dragon Pulse, which, in turn, shot her toward Priere. Too busy enjoying her time spinning, she didn't really know that she was hurdling toward Priere, and only continued to spin faster and faster.
"Oh shit..."
Priere could see that Meo had no intention of stopping, probably because she wasn't paying any attention, but... That was more than okay. She would catch Meo and use the waters within her to spin her faster, whilst Priere used the momentum of her capture of Meo to spin around as well. Doing a complete reversal, Priere flung Meo at max power and speed, using the force of her magics to fling her even faster than she would have before.
"Top that..."
The Kingdra was astounded by their synergy and teamwork, finding them to be more powerful than expected. He was no fool, however, and would not fall for such trickery. With his mighty speed and Agility, he would gracefully and skillfully evade the speeding Marill and quickly focus himself on Priere.
The Cloyster from before would appear beside him, now instead of a fit of rage, she was saddened and crying. The Kingdra could not allow this.
Trainer. I sense you can communicate with beings of the water on a far greater level than a normal human. If you can hear and understand me, please... Give this poor woman her husband and daughter back.
He did not want to fight her, as it would just cause more cataclysm within the seas, and a true King knew when to let something go.
Cloyster: If not the both of them, then please, my daughter at least...
The Kingdra wasn't sure how she was going to respond, or if she could even hear their pleas.
... If it appeases you, I will take the place of her daughter. Just let her go.
As Meo sped off, she didn't hit her mark AGAIN, and would finally simply unfold and splash about playfully in the water, waiting for Priere's next order. All the while, Priere could hear the voices of the Kingdra and the Cloyster in her mind.
"Huh?"
She heard everything that they said, and didn't realize that she was messing up a family because of her actions. She really wanted to keep the both of them, but the Kingdra made her a bargain that she couldn't refuse.
"... Alright, lady. Here. Take your daughter."
Priere would release the Shellder from her pokeball and into the water next to the Cloyster, then immediately pointed the pokeball to the Kingdra.
"A deal's a deal, then. You're a pretty cool guy. We can spread your teachings and ways to the rest of this world, too."
She would fling the pokeball and capture the Kingdra.
After hearing the words of Priere and to know that their deal was set, the Kingdra humbly nodded his head, knowing of his fate. He turned to the Cloyster and watched as she was reunited with at least her daughter, and could see the joy on her face.
Cloyster: Oh, my baby...! She's back with me...
Kingdra: Ah, so you are happy...
Cloyster: Oh mighty King! Thank you! And make sure to tell my husband that I love him...
Kingdra: I wouldn't have it any other way.
And with that, he was captured by the same pokeball used to catch the Shellder before, now belonged to Priere.
With a new and very rare pokemon in her disposal, Priere had gotten more than she bargained for here... In fact, much more. She not only got something better than a Shellder; it's evolved form, Cloyster, but also the rare king of the sea, Kingdra. She hovered over to Meo and smirked at her, laughing to herself.
"Weeell, I think we got a pretty good haul out here today. Looks like my entry team is complete. Next on my list is to get you suckers to evolve so you'll stand a fighting chance!"
She was going to have to train and discipline these pokemon... In numerous ways.
"Come on, Meo."
She would continue to head toward the shore, where she would be heading home now.
Just when Priere thought she was done, when she got to the shore, she would find an unconscious Dragonair, heavily wounded from a scrap before halfway washed up on shore. Whatever did this to her was pretty powerful, indeed. What could have done it? Would Priere even acknowledge it?
As she got to the shore with Meo, she realized that there was something amiss here. She looked around and saw that there was a wounded mythical creature lying on the shore.
"Hoooooly shit."
A Dragonair, something almost as rare, if not rarer than the Kingdra. Why was Priere on such a roll today? But... Wait... It was wounded. She hovered over to it, and now since she knew she could communicate with any pokemon affinitied with water, she would touch it, looking it up and down.
"What the hell happened to you? Are you even awake? What did this to you?"
She was concerned but the way she spoke seemed a bit too lax for this type of situation.
The Dragonair was formerly unconscious until Priere started to speak, seeming to revive it from its fainted status. It would weakly open its eyes and try to communicate with her, finding only a little strength to do so.
Gyarados... Out in the sea...
However, now that she was awake, she could utilize her recovery abilities to start to heal herself.
Thank you for waking me up... I... I feel like I can restore my wounds now.
As she spoke longer, more of her wounds started to heal under the light of her majestic horn and orbs on her body.
... You were kind enough to come check on me... Do you think you would help me fight and calm this powerful beast? You would be in my debt! If this goes on... He may destroy everything! My friends are already there trying to hold him off... Won't you please?
This kindly Dragonair pleaded with Priere, hoping she could be of some assistance.
Seeing this Dragonair restore herself gave Priere a bit of reassurance about everything, but... She reeeaaaallly didn't want to go back out there and deal with a Gyarados.
"Um..."
Buuut, at the same time... Perhaps this Dragonair would cut her the same deal that the Kingdra did if she helped! Plus, maybe she could snag that Gyarados while she was at it... It wasn't like it wasn't feasible.
"... Heh. Alright, I'll help! Just lead the way."
She would wait for the Dragonair to lead her out to where this Gyarados was, trying to figure out how she was going to calm that thing down...
More than grateful for her undying kindness, the Dragonair quickly wrapped her tail around Priere and her Marill and started off into the sea.
Thank you so much! I'm forever in your debt! Now, let's hurry!
Speeding off into the sea, it would take about an hour before they got to their destination, which was where a violent storm was brewing due to the Gyarados' rage. There, a Vaporeon, Poliwrath and Empoleon were all trying to fend off this Gyarados, which was fathoms times larger than the average one, all of their efforts failing to calm down the beast. Releasing powerful and destructive Hyper Beams that caused massive tidal waves with every fire, this Gyarados' rage simply overwhelmed everyone and everything.
There they are! They've been keeping him at bay for as long as they can... Hurry, let's help them!
She would release Priere and her Marill and quickly join back with her friends.
Dragonair: Everyone! I've brought help!
Empoleon: It's about time.
Poliwrath: Are you alright? You took that Outrage for all of us back there!
Vaporeon: Yeah, thanks for that, but I think you should definitely sit this one out!
Dragonair: No, I think the combined efforts of the 6 of us can stop this Gyarados! Me, you three, this trainer and her pokemon!
Vaporeon: Suit yourself. Just hurry and be careful!
With all four of these pokemon still in the fray, it was time for Priere to live up to what she had just spoken... and take down this Giant Gyarados.
This Gyarados was massive. Like, beyond massive. Enormous. Far larger than any Gyarados she had ever seen or heard about. And it was acting a goddamn fool.
"What the hell did you all do to piss THIS thing off!?!"
She turned to Meo, since she was out, and she wasn't scared in the slightest. In fact, she seemed rather happy about all of this.
"Sigh... You just don't understand danger, do you?"
She flailed and splashed in the giant waves, having the greatest fun of all time.
"Alright, Meo, let's help them out, then! Let's start it off right... Superpower!!"
Suddenly, Meo's eyes got stern and focused, her power exploding, halting a giant tidal wave that was about to consume her and silencing it. With incredible speed and power, she would burst from the waters and shoot straight at the Gyarados' chest, trying to knock it down into the waters with the greatest force. Hopefully this did something to it...
Being distracted with the other four, the Gyarados didn't even see the Marill charging at it. Being impacted with the full force of the Superpower, its body bent backward as if it were about to fall... But it had only done a little bit of damage, as expected. Concentrating now on the little Marill, it IMMEDIATELY retaliated with a POWERFUL Hyper Beam able to split the ocean in twain, and most likely the little Marill along with it. No wonder Four almost fully evolved pokemon could not take this creature out. Now He just seemed more vicious.
Poliwrath: Oh no! I'll catch you!
He sped off to catch the Marill that was, without a doubt, going to get hit by that, no question. He would catch her and try to tend to her wounds. Meanwhile, the Empoleon would try another Hydro Blast, summoning a great torrent of water from the seas to create a huge concentrated blast directly at the Gyarados. The Dragonair tried to hit it with a powerful Thunderbolt, calling it down from the skies upon the Gyarados' head, whilst the Vaporeon went to tend to the injured Marill, to heal her wounds.
As Meo was undoubtedly blasted out of the sky, even with the Superpower, she was harmed so bad that she was near the end of her rope, only being saved by the Poliwrath that came to her rescue, whilst the Vaporeon started trying to heal her.
"Oh dammit, Meo... How the fuck are we gonna do this? I don't think I have any pokemon that can-- Wait... That's it..."
Priere knew of just one... One pokemon that could quell any rage... The most beautiful beauteous queen, Beauty the Milotic.
"Alright, Beauty! Use your gorgeous looks to win the heart of this rampaging giant!! Attract!!!"
Priere released her pokeball into the air, immediately releasing the marvelous and beautiful Milotic from her confines. Her pure grandeur and beauty would turn every head, male or female, and regardless of their sexual preference, to gawk and stare at her marvelousness. She merely looked up to the raging beast, unafraid, and winked, releasing a powerful, loving and soothing aura throughout the entire area that would cause every pokemon to fall in love with her beauty.
This Gyarados seemed to have brushed off every attack, even the Thunderbolt, with its violent and undying rage. It as rearing up for yet another Hyper beam when, the Milotic appeared.
As stated by Priere, the beauty of the marvelous Milotic turned every head in the sea, even that of the Gyarados'. Upon seeing her beauty and grace, and the simply wink from her Attract, the Gyarados was smitten, and its rage was calmed. He lowered himself until his giant head met with the eyes of the Milotic, batting them childishly at her presence. He was fully and utterly in love with her.
Poliwrath: oh...
Vaporean: My...
Empoleon: Hrmph...
Dragonair: She's... so beautiful...
Each of them seemed to be smitten as well with this Milotic, as it should be, that is. No one could take their eyes off of her. But, it was mission accomplished.
Well, with the Gyarados thoroughly smitten by Priere's Milotic, Priere would throw a Pokeball at it to officially make it hers.
"Heh heh... No one beats the Beauty Queen."
Beauty: Of course not. They are too simple to.
Flinging the Pokeball at the Gyarados' head, considering how large it was, it would probably take a little more effort to put this guy in a pokeball...
The smitten Gyarados, hit in the head by the Pokeball, would somehow manage to fit inside of it, where the pokeball showed no signs of resistance to being captured. This Gyarados thereby belonged to Priere now.
Dragonair: Thank you so much... And now, for your efforts, I will be coming along with you...
The Dragonair would move toward Priere and toward Beauty, looking at Beauty with longing eyes.
Dragonair: I'd really like it if I could train under you... I want to be as beautiful as you... Or, at least really beautiful similarly to you! I hope we can be friends...
The Poliwrath swam over to Priere, giving her back her Marill, which would now be slightly healed.
Poliwrath: H-here you go... and I wouldn't mind coming along with you either, since you know, Dragonair is...
Secretly, he liked Beauty too. The Empoleon found her regal aura to be rather invigorating.
Empoleon: Hmph. I might as well join you, as well.
He didn't say much more than that. And lastly, the Vaporeon...
Vaporeon: ... Well, since everyone's hopping on this...
She wanted to join up, too. Looks like from one simply good deed, Priere got 5 new pokemon to join up with her, all of them (or most of them) of the water affinity.
After smoothly capturing the Gyarados, she would find that Beauty's beauty (Cute Charm) had indeed captured the hearts of the other Pokemon, too.
"Alright, alright! Cool it! I've got Pokeballs for everyone!"
I just hit the jackpot~!!
Beauty: Hmph. I'm sure the commoners would indeed love to be around my essence. I will make good use of these kindly peasants. Come along.
She would swim to Priere, and Priere would fling Pokeballs at all of them. With all of their consent, the pokeballs would come to a clicking halt, and Priere would have her team assembled. She would return Beauty and Meo to their Pokeballs, respectively as well.
"Yes~! And I just ran out of pokeballs, too!"
Her endeavors at becoming the Water Gym leader were rather close... She was tired of being known for only her Ice element. It was time to show them she was a Water user, too. Creating an Ice Portal, she would step through and be on her way home to the Ice Sanctuary.
