Action
[All month, Ulaz has been trying to practice with Bet, his Corviknight. Some of the time, he has no problem. Other times... other times are like now.

For anyone who might be watching in Goldenrod City, Bet is swooping in, coming for deep dive. Not that he is really trying to do something stupid, but he's being chased at the moment. Behind the Corviknight are several dozen small bird Pokemon chasing him, Pidgey and Rookiedee mostly, with a few random Murkrow that have been tailing since Ecruteak City. Most alarming are three Skarmory that have apparently been chasing him from either further or come out of nowhere.

Clearly, Bet is trying to figure out how to drop off his trainer so he doesn't get hurt and so Ulaz can recall him. Easier said than done when there are so many other bird Pokemon hot on his tail feathers]

[It is a bit later, but Ulaz is on the ground back near his house. Bet is with him, looking a bit worse for wear, but he is taking care of fixing his feathers]

Has anyone else been having problems with the bird Pokemon when they are out flying? It seems like half the time we try, Bet and I get swarmed by various Pokemon while we are flying.

Does it make a difference where you're flying? Maybe there's something going on on one of the routes you take a lot...

The only difference it seems to make is what Pokemon are chasing us. It's been happening so frequently that Bet and I have been figuring out potential bodies of water so I can get off his back without potentially injuring myself.

Maybe you should take a break for a while. Could you use the warps to get around?

I think that is what we will have to do unfortunately. Bet does like to fly where we are going so it will be disappointing, but I think even he is done with being chased.

Hopefully not for too long. Flying-types don't like to be cooped up for too long.

They do not. Especially when they are as large as Bet.

[He glanced over at the Corviknight. Of course, Ulaz being tall probably made the Corviknight look shorter than he was, but still, the Corviknight was taller than Ulaz]

But I hope that whatever this is will pass quickly.

Yeah. I have a Corviknight. They need a lot of exercise.

[It's better for poor Bet not to be attacked, but it's still got to be tough for him to be grounded.]

Indeed. It is better for his safety, but it does have me concerned that this might be more serious. However, that is hard to tell until time has passed.

Maybe give it a few days to start?

[That wouldn't be too bad to wait out...]

That is probably a good idea. Bet could probably use a few days to heal up anyway.

[Bet made a protesting sound, but sat down and puffed up a little like he was sulking]

He wants to get back out there, huh?

[Min offers Bet a sympathetic smile.]

A little rest is probably a good idea. A few days won't be so bad.

He usually does.

[Corviknight made sounds in response to that. Okay, maybe he could agree that... He looks slightly less annoyed now]

Yes, and once it is over. We can try again.

Right. It's better than being forced down and not being able to fly for even longer.

Indeed. I don't want you to get hurt.

[Bet made a sound again. Seemed to be appeased]

I may have to do some more research in this area and see if it is just him or if it is others as well.

That's a good idea. I haven't heard of any areas like that, but I haven't spent much time in Johto.

That's good. If you do hear of anything similar, please let me know.

I will. Hopefully you can figure it out soon.

I hope so too. Bet would appreciate that.
