[Ishikura Daiki]

The first place that Daiki decided to visit after he settled back into his dorm was the Academy's Edge, a place that he thought would be somehow symbolic or some sort since he was now back in the Academy as a Warden rather than a student. In truth, he had actually wandered here by accident, walking aimlessly and feeling nostalgic with the scenery that he had lost track of where he was. He was only stopped by the cliff that certainly meant a rather far drop past its edge. It would be foolish to attempt moving any closer, there was a chance the ground could give in.

Wedelia didn't have that sort of common sense, unfortunately. The two headed dragon had immediately walked up to the last bit of grass his feet could stand on, and he (they?) were admiring the view that the plateau had to offer. Poppy wasn't as adventurous and so stayed close to Daiki, but both Pokemon have actually hardly been outside the Academy before this. Despite their opposite reactions, they were both actually pretty excited.

At this point Daiki figured it wouldn't be bad if they lingered here for a while. The weather was cool, but not too cold, and so was a nice spot to relax. It also put things in perspective if he wanted to follow that line of thinking, but right now he just watched the clouds roll across the sky - he still couldn't help but be taken aback by nature's beauty. The last thing he would expect right now was some sort of battle, honestly.

[Ishikura Daiki]

Unfortunately for Daiki, the last thing he expected was going to be running right at him after all. Or to be more accurate, his Zweilous - despite the place looking relatively open field, there were still some groves here and there, and one of them had a very foolhardy Mankey that wanted to test her mettle. While Wedelia was fantasising of evolving (so that he could fly), the Mankey made a leap towards Daiki and Poppy, hoping to steal something nice. Poppy reacted first, letting out a Water Pulse that hit its target dead on. The little monkey was thrown back onto the ground, closer to the trees, but one attack wasn't going to keep her down, no no.

At this point Daiki and his two Pokemon were now alert with what was going on. He had read about them in books but never really saw one for himself, as his dad never thought of getting a Pokemon that had such a short temper. Wedelia rushed to his trainer's side, all too eager to battle, and Poppy didn't mind just hanging back, letting out a small whimper as she did this. The Zweilous let out a roar, and for a moment it seemed that the Mankey got the message - this was no Pokemon that she should be messing with, but her frozen state was only for a second before she renewed her courage and rushed in with her hands glowing. At first Wedelia was planning on standing his ground, but then Daiki remembered that he was part Dark, and therefore fighting type moves would be super effective. He immediately told his Zweilous to get out of the way, which because of its hastiness, he barely managed to evade the attack, "Alright, Wedelia, Zen Headbutt!"

Hardly giving time for the Mankey to recover from missing, Wedelia charged in with its head aglow. It was a super effective hit, and the Mankey was defeated. Daiki didn't consider catching the Pokemon, but carried her to a nearby tree so that she could rest, "You should be more discerning of who you pick to fight, okay?" he told her, to which the Mankey replied with a small whine.
