Kaiser's Test

-the Torterra runs headfirst into the cloud of smog, flailing angrily in an attempt to disperse it and/or hit something-

-Taking advantage of the cover, Davis climbs up a nearby tree-

Hopefully we can stay hidden up here.

-Returns Nox to her pokeball-

Okay Zero, if that Torterra sees us we're acorns okay?

-Zero nods head-

I may be kind of late for commenting, but yay, another person from Ecruteak~ (And it's a city, not a town, despite how calm it is :P)

Kaiser's Test

-the Torterra lumbers out of the smog, looking around for the others. Its gaze passes along the tree...-

Okay Zero I don't think Mr. Torterra has seen us! How about you use a Shadow Ball over there to distract it so we can make a break for it?

-Zero nods head and sends a Shadow Ball as far as he can-

Taking over because every had to go

Kaiser's Test

-The Torterra is about to notice them, when it hears a sound from a bit away caused by the Shadow Ball hitting something-

-The Torterra heads off in the direction of the sound-

No problem

-As soon as the Torterra has gone far away enough, jumps down from the tree, and run as fast as they can-

Davis: Phew! That was a close one!

Zero <Why do random pokemon always chase you Davis?>

Alright, Shadow Kaiser, you've been accepted.

Try visiting the creative chat to get yourself oriented and see where it would be best to jump in.

Awesome, thank you!

Pallav: a battle for my money? What will I receive if I won?

Fork's Test

Mugger: You get to leave intact, of course.

Arbok: -hiss-

Pallav: Haha, no. In my market, I do not tolerate any blackmailing. I shall bring you to the police if I suceed. Krone, I need you.

Krone: ...

[I have a question: How can I indicate movement?]

Usually it's done as -action-, but you can use pretty much anything as long as it's reasonably clear.

Fork's Test

'Mugger: Hmph. Arbok, Fire Fang.

Arbok: -lunges forward with flaming jaws-

Pallav: Krone, Protect!

Krone: ... -Protects itself with a strange light-

Fork's Test

-the Arbok bounces off the Protect, hissing in irritation, then attacks with another Fire Fang-

Pallav: Krone, use Rain Dance!

Krone: -Starts to spin.- -The sky darkens as rain starts to fall-

A TM? Yes, I justify as Pallav is a merchant.

No need to justify having TMs. Most people do in WAAPT. However, it is best to acknowledge the effect of an attack on your Pokemon.

Mugger: Arbok, keep up the Fire Fangs!

-Arbok does so-

Pallav: Krone, Stay alive! Use Thunder.

Krone: -Looking down, feeling tired-!...-Starts Crackling- -A large Thunderbolt dropped on the mugger's Arbok-

Ah, OK. By the way, these spoilers are very useful!

I think you're forgetting to acknowledge the damage from Arbok's attacks...

Oops sorry, will change it

I meant more whether acknowledging whether the attack your opponent used hit or not and, at how much damage it roughly did. Though what you did is good too.

Fork's Test

-the Arbok is struck by the Thunder, and crumples to the ground, its health more than half spent-

Mugger: Not bad, but it's not enough! Fire Fang!

Arbok: -lunges-

-Two fiery fangs would've defeated Krone hadn't he use Rain Dance. His Health is almost halved- -The third Fire Fang has Krone 30% of its health-

Pallav: Oho, is that so? Krone, keep using Thunder to paralyze it!

Krone: <BZZT!> -Another Thunderbolt dropped down the Arbok-

Fork's Test

-the Arbok is hit by the Thunder, staggers, and falls-

Mugger: Grrr...-recalls the Arbok, running off- This isn't over!

End Test.

So, a couple notes.

First off, while your grammar isn't atrocious, it's not great. Notably, keep tenses consistent throughout posts, and make sure that they contain all the necessary words.

In addition, you could stand improvement in reactive description.

Neither of these are deal-breaking though, so welcome to WAAPT! Have a link to the chatrooms to help you get started.

In response to Umbramatic's statement...

I'm sorry... I figured that since my character couldn't understand them, I shouldn't give them lines yet.
