¤Ace & §k¥'s Training Ground¤

Sky wanders around to a peaceful area just beneath a mountain. Trees are filled with singing pokemon and the grass can be up to 10 feet high near the mountain. Ace sniffed his surronding for things that might be dangerous. He leapped up and down the valley marking his territory by shooting ember.
"Let's work on your ember Ace,", Ace run back to Sky,"now to bring it to the next level. Don't let out balls of fire, hold some in and let out streams of flame instead.". Ace nodded his head and chirpped back to

his territory. Once there, Ace tried what his trainer told him, a misshapened ball of fire rushed out.
"Good try! Try to breathe deeply and let out a small stream at a time.", Ace took a huge breath and breathed out a long string of fire and coughed soot.
"It's okay, just drink a little water and try again.", Sky hands Ace a cup of water. Ace nods and drinks a bit, then he trys once more. Breathe in, breathe out longer.
A more massive fire stream blew out of Ace. Sky was starting to be impressed, water

seemed to upgrade Ace's fire moves.
"Let practice by a pond.", Ace nodded unconciously.
The pond they went to was filthy, filled with green mysterious substance. Ace started nibbling on Sky's leather shorts.
"Why dont you try to burn all that...", Ace breathed in and let it fly. The pond turned to steam in moments.
"I guess you did something to nature.", Ace flapped his wings happily.

Night came and Sky was pretty worn out. Ace's ADHD self kept on trying to perfect the the move.

~Go work Ace, just a few..more...~

Ace cocked his head *chirp?*

(Thanks to the power of the Forum I can fast forward a few hours)
Sky woke up later and found Ace kicking up rocks and torching them. The fire wasnt red anymore, more yellow.
"Have you been training all night?", envious, Sky went to take a good look at how big the flamethrower has gotten.

Not only was it yellow, Ace had reached the move flamethrower and over acheved it. Ace looked wary and drained.

~Why dont you take a break, we've got lots to do later.~ Sky returned Ace to his pkball and went on his way to the pkmart

~Okay Ace it's time to learn agility!~

Ace jumps up and down *chirp!*

~ Now try and run around those trees and back as fast as you can! ~

It took Ace a whole 5 minutes to go around 10 trees.

~ Good effort but you have to run faster, believe in your legs! Let them control your movement," Ace cocks his head," Just run dont think about anything!".

This time Ace got a minute faster.

~ Why dont we do that training later. For now try to dodge these rocks I throw at you by stepping aside. The goal is

to catch me. ~

Sky fills his backpack with rocks and puts it on backwards. While Ace is ten yards away.

~ Begin! ~

Ace starts to run, Sky throws a rock and Ace side steps just in time. This went on for about an hour and Ace still hasnt slowed down.

~ Okay this time, I'll throw more then just one! ~

Sky rapidly throws 2 or 3 rocks at a time at Ace. The little guy was running faster and dodging quicker.

Sky got tired and got caught by Ace. The training was taking alot out of them both.

~ Ace, why dont you run around the forest as fast as you can. I have to rest my arm a bit ~

*chirp!* He ran off into the trees and gracefully dodged trees, other pokemon, and boulders.

Finding his way back was a problem, because Ace had ADHD, he easily forget things.

*Chirp!!*

¤Corphisssh!¤ A voice called.

( This is the translation, dont say anything about it! ) *Ace* ¤Corphish¤

*Who are you?*
¤A friend...¤
*But who!?*
¤My nickname is Mike Jackson¤
*What do you want!?*
¤You!¤ Corphish leaped at Ace and used vice grip.
*Go AWAY!* Ace dodged with agility and used ember.
¤Playing hard to get eh? I LIKE That!¤ Corphish used water gun.
*Ahh!* Ace used agility again and roundhouse

kicked where his pkmon balls should be. Mike got kicked miles away from the training area.

~ Ace there you are! What happened ~

*Well I got; lost, almost abused by a Corphish and learned agility* ( All Sky heard was, *chirp!* )

(Another day)
~ Ace, there are a pile of rocks here I like you to peck, just arc your head down every time, and aim with your beak ~

*Pur*

Ace did so and got the rock to crack.

~ Good job! Now put some force into it! ~

*chirp!*

The rock shattered.

~ Great, kick the rock up and peck it. ~

Ace missed the first try. *chirp?*

~ Try again ~

Ace hits the far corner of the rock.

~ Good just a few more trys! ~

*whistles*

Ace kicked it a bit higher for more time to aim. He stretches his neck back, and..
*Crack!*

~ Perfect! Now, kick it up as high as you can and peck it in the air while spinning. ~

Ace kicked a rock his size 5 feet off the ground and sprang up spinning with his beak infront.

~ You can do it! ~
Ace's beak slammed into the rock, it broke in exactly three pieces.

~ Awesome Ace! Lets do sand attack while we have the dirt! ~

Ace fell head first to the ground.

~ Ace! ~

*chirp?* Ace looks down, *Chirp!!*

~ Use ember on the ground ~

ten balls of fire hits the ground and the momentum gave Ace a boost to land on his feet.

~ Lets take a break ~

(An hour later)

~ Come, we need to work on sand attack ~

*chirp*

~ It's easy, just kick up some dirt and aim it at someone ~

Ace tried, *chirp!*, he danced happily. Sky on the other hand was on the recieving end.

~ Okay let's kick dirt at each oth... thats not funny! ~

Ace had kicked some in Sky's mouth. Sky returned the favor.

~ Hows that? ~

*blah*

~ Ace, kick that boulder, use sand attack, then follow up by ember. ~

Ace broke the boulder to pieces and kicked sand and bits of rocks up. A dust storm rose, but was cancled out by a rage of yellow fire shooting everwhere.

~ Great, now try meditate and focus on the next attack. I'll do it with you. ~

Ace and Sky sits crossed legs, then let their minds blank.

Whispers ~ Now you focus on that ember and try to determine where every fire partical goes. Try shooting out one powerful ember. ~

Ace trys concentrating on one partical first, a Pidgey cawed, Ace stopped and released his blue fire. It was the size of an ant, but the fire burnned for 5 minutes before it died.

~ Just meditate for a bit, each time you do your best, your best gets better. ~

*Chirp*

The two just sat there ignoring the flock of Pidgeys staring at them.

~ Now lets try that ember. ~

Ace took his time focusing on ember. The longer he takes the more powerful his fire.

*CHIRP!!!* Fortunately for the Pidgeys, the screamed got them startled and they flew away.

Ace shot a string of blue fire, it hit a boulder and the string exploded from blue to slowly red. All that was left was a hole.

~ Perfect! ~

*Chirp..* Ace drifted into sleep/meditation

( Next day )
~ Ace lets train your speed. I want you to be quicker in battle. ~
Sky brought Ace near the top of the mountain

*Rrr!* Ace got pumped up.

~ Everytime you get wary, meditate with Focus Energy. ~

*Chirp!*

Sky ties a rock half Ace's size. ~ Now lets go run a mile! ~

*Chirp!*

Sky jogs ahead encouraging Ace to run faster. Ace closes his eyes and ran faster, concentrating on his legs for more power. ( This is where the song Eye of the Tiger comes in. )

~ Thats right Ace! Push yourself harder! ~
Ace sits down and meditates. Sky does the same. Five minutes later Ace is renewed and starts running with Sky right behind him.

Ace seemed to revive faster and last longer. They completed two miles with only three breaks. Sky got extreamly worn and rested as Ace runs lap around him.

~ Great...job... ~

*Chirp!*

Their training on the mountain had really boosted Ace's Speed, Endurance, Strength, and Bond with his Trainer.

~ Ace I want you to keep kicking sand at that boulder until the sand floods the boulder.~

*Chirp!*

Ace continuiously kick sand at the boulder even though his feet aced. A few minutes later Ace had the sand half of the boulder's height.

~ Your almost there Ace! ~

*Chirp... *

~ I want you to think that your trying to kick a hole in the boulder with sand ~

Ace didnt respond by talking, he focused on kicking the sand. He swung his little feet and a stream of sand followed his foot towards the rock. Ace quickly moved his foot back, two inches away from the rock to let the sand hit the boulder. Ace happily kicked both his legs at the boulder, sending streams of sand at it.

~ Nice work Ace... ~

Ace and Sky takes an Chocolate break. Ace LOVES Chocolate, he sings it in his sleep.
( }=-) )

(Next Day)
Ace sits in his circle, of fire, meditating. While Corpfish, Pidgey, and Pikachu train with Sky.

~Corphish, try hardening your shell. Pidgey, try to flap your wings to make a breeze. Pikachu, try to shoot out a spark o electrictity.

The pokemon did as the were told, and did not succeed in much. Corphish didnt even know his shell was hardening or not. Pidgey just clapped his wings and created nothing. Pikachu's cheek just sparked.

~ Let's keep on trying guys, we'll get it. ~
