011 Bushels ❦ [Video/Action for Violet]

[buckyouup]

[Applejack is standing under a tree, her gaze locked on a single red apple hanging from a branch. She grits her teeth. Dumb human body. If she was a pony, this wouldn't be any problem at all. But damnit, she was hungry. She had to try.]

Alright, Applejack. It's just like back home. Nice an' easy, no problem.

[She backs up a couple steps, before running at the tree. When she gets close, she brings up her leg, forcing it into the trunk of the tree with all her might. She stays there, for a moment, glaring at the trunk, which hasn't budged an inch. The adrenaline quickly wearing off, Applejack yelps, rolling off the tree and grabbing her ankle.]

Dang it! Dumb apple, why can't you just fall!?

[Suddenly, shifting in the branches! AJ's eyes quickly dart up, smiling in expectation. She closed her eyes, holding out her hands. Soon that delicious ruby would be in her hands, and she'll finally be able to--OOF!]



[Applejack's eyes widen as the much-larger-than-an-apple pokemon lands on her chest. The Pineco's eyes narrow, growling.]

Uh, hey there, sugarcube. Let's not get too hasty...

[The feed cuts with the sound of an explosion.]

[Bushel looks up at her, the Pineco still hanging from his mouth. His eyes narrow and he puts his hands on his hips.

What are you gonna do about it, lady?]

[3_butterflies]

[She speaks sterner, leaning down.]

Open your mouth! Spit him out right now! He's going to give you a very bad tummy ache, and you won't be able to eat for days!

[Nidorino waits for an order, eyeing Bushel. 'gimme a reason, man, i'll make you into skish-ka-lax. gimmie a reason.']

[buckyouup]

[Bushel snorts, reaching into his mouth and removing the Pineco, tossing him on the floor.

Fine whatever he didn't taste good anyway.]

[3_butterflies]

[Phew! Fluttershy sighs with relief.]

Thank you...

[She then kneels down, and cuddles the poor Pineco.]

I'm so sorry about all this. None of us meant to hurt you. My friend Applejack was looking for food, and had she known you were up there, she wouldn't have done that. Can you forgive her?

[buckyouup]

[The Pineco squirmed weakly in Fluttershy's arms. Who is this woman and why is she holding her? Why does she feel sticky? Why can't she explode yet!?]

[3_butterflies]

We'll just put you back under the tree, and we can all go on like this never happened.

[She hugs the poor confused Pineco and begins carrying him back to the tree.]

Aren't Pokemon simply amazing, Applejack?

[buckyouup]

They are. An' that attack sure was impressive, even if it ended up knockin' the poor thing out.

[3_butterflies]

I think that was Self Destruct... or Explosion... I can't tell those two apart.

[buckyouup]

Maybe somethin' so strong would do well on my team.

[3_butterflies]

Oh... you think so?

[She stops in her tracks. no tree time for you, mister mon.]

[buckyouup]

I reckon so. It's a risky move, but it sure is powerful.

[3_butterflies]

[She looks down, kind of confused.]

... Do you think Bushel eating him counts as a battle?

[buckyouup]

It's the best battle he's ever been in.

[3_butterflies]

[welp. no argument there.]

Then I guess it's Pokeball time!

[buckyouup]

[Applejack retrieves the ball from her pack.]

So uh... how do I do this?

[3_butterflies]

Just throw it at him. It's not too difficult. You can definitely do it!

[buckyouup]

While you're holdin' it? What if I hit you?

[Will you go in the ball? That would be horrible!]

[3_butterflies]

I'll be okay! Here...

[She then holds Pienco above her head. that helps, right :DDD]

[buckyouup]

[O-okay. You can do this. Aaaand throw the ball!]

[3_butterflies]

[It hits Pineco - sorry, buddy - and then drops to the ground - a white light encases Pienco - the light goes in the ball - the ball wobbles...]

Now we wait for the 'click!'

[buckyouup]

[And click it does! Pineco was caught!]
