here i am with my (gre)ninja clan

Who: Tenten and everyone. Everyone.
Where: Goldenrod
When: December 5th-19th
Summary: Tenten sent out a challenge to everyone in both regions to battle her. Now she's making good on that by making herself easily accessible for battling! Please feel free to handwave an announcement post on the Network letting people know exactly where she'll be.
Log:

Tenten had already posted her challenge to the entire network. If she were going to become a legend, she wasn't going to sit there passively and let the opportunity come to her; she was going to seize it, and for now, that meant stopping anyone who wandered too close to challenge them to a battle. Pokémon or hand-to-hand sparring, she didn't really care which. As long as people knew she was a contender.

She can be found outside Goldenrod's Pokémon Center, bundled up in a warm cloak, thick hat, and fingerless gloves.

[Okay! First time doing a post this open -- if you'd like to handwave the actual battle itself, I'll be rolling a d6 to determine who wins: 1- Tenten loses terribly, 2/3- Tenten barely loses, 4/5- Tenten barely wins, 6- Tenten completely wins. Tenten's Pokémon teams will largely consist of at least one Flying, Fire, Fighting, Water, Steel, and Dragon type, with potentially a Dark, Psychic, or Ice: her roster is here for the curious, and she'll try to match her team's levels to her opponent's if at all possible; she'll ask first. This is her battle theme! Please make sure to put the date in the subject title of your comment just so I can keep track of who she battled when. p.s. The calendar will be important, since these battles will be outside!]
ghostytrainer: (nice to meet'cha!)

[Okay, so a battle the day after Rose's birthday didn't actually happen. Probably due to a combination of John oversleeping in the aftermath of PARTY TIMES and having to clean up his house due to the very same thing that may or may not have lead him to oversleep.]

[In any case, luckily John had to come to Goldenrod to do some Christmas shopping. So once the weekend snow subsides, John heads out that way. However, his first stop isn't any store. It's the Pokémon center. Giant the Golurk lands right in front of it, arms and legs popping out where there had been rockets while he was in the air. Because that's how Golurks work, apparently. Once the behemoth is solidly on the ground, it bends down and holds an arm out, which John slides down, hopping to his feet once he hits the flat open palm. Hell yeah. This is how a ghost master travels.]

[A ghost master in a nerdy hand-knit argyle sweater vest, sure, but a ghost master nonetheless!!! At least he's opted for a plain blue scarf instead of a bowtie to go with it...]


Sup, Tenten?
ghostytrainer: (let me tell you about ghost types.)

OH NO POOR TENTEN.........

Oh, Giant? He's a Golurk! Dual ground-ghost type. Ever heard of a golem? Like...not the Pokémon Golem but the ghostly automatons? That's what he is. Basically a rock robot that's sort of alive.

[Giant plants his hands on his hips, striking a heroic pose.]

I won't be using him in our battle though. After a six hour flight, I think he deserves a rest.

[The Golurk's arms drop and he looks absolutely crestfallen. HE'S NOT TIRED DAD, HE CAN FIGHT. HE CAN FIIIIGGGHHHHTTTTT.]

No...no don't look at me like that. Dammit, Giant... [He pulls a Pokéball off his belt and calls the enormous ghost back. This is for your own good, dude.] Anyway, I can tell you more about Golurks later if you want. In the meantime, what sort of battle are we doing? Full team of six, 3-v-3...? Double?
