Jaren smiled. His decision to progress through the forest through a less used, harder to find path had proven fruitful. He only knew of the path through second hand knowledge picked off a fellow Trainer in the previous town's Pokémon Center, who in turn only knew of it through a story a different Trainer had told him. The Trainer had promised that he would be guaranteed to find a rare Pokémon if he took the path. It had taken Jaren quite a while to actually locate the path, only having a vague idea of where it was. It was not an easy path to follow either. A good portion had been overgrown and therefore it was hard to tell road from forest, and in some places thick vegetation impeded progress to the point where he had to deviate from the trail slightly. Jaren had been convinced that it was a stupid idea to take the path, and that no Pokémon he could find would make the journey worthwhile. Recently, though, his opinion had greatly changed.
Before him was a Vulpix, a Pokémon that was very rare in the area. Jaren had found it with relative ease, it had been walking alongside the path when he had stumbled upon it. Jaren didn't know why the Vulpix would do such a thing, but he really didn't care. He wasted no time engaging it. The Pokémon had put up a fight, but there was only so much a wild Vulpix could do to the likes of his trained Poliwhirl. Feeling confident that the Pokémon could be captured, Jaren reached a gloved hand into the depths of his light, blue jacket. He always kept a few empty Pokéballs around his belt, along with the ones that contained his Pokémon. In a rehearsed motion, Jaren grabbed an empty Great Ball from his belt and tossed it at the wild Pokémon. The Vulpix was absorbed into that ball, which then fell to the ground and commenced shaking. Eventually, it stopped.
A grin spread across Jaren's face as he walked forward to retrieve the ball, recalling his Polywhirl to its own as he did. He picked up the Great Ball, examining it for a moment. Then Jaren tossed the ball into the air, releasing the newly-caught Vulpix from it. Jaren liked to inspect his Pokémon after he caught them, and the Vulpix would be no exception.
