Cynder:
The Pinsir draws it's arm back, and it's arm starts to glow. Not sticking around to see what it will do, you run for your life, with the Pinsir in close pursuit. Straight ahead, you see a weird, bright yellow static slash open up three feet away from you, and you involuntarily run into it. The last thing you see is the Pinsir, still running at you, before you rumble into semi-darkness.

Inside the portal, bright, piercing flashes of bright yellow cut through the darkness, and you feel a sensation as if you put your tongue on a 9V battery, but all over your body, (Disclaimer: dont put your tongue on a 9V battery. Or any battery, for that matter.) and periodic static shocks jolt you every now and then. After what seems like too long, you tumble out. You study your surroundings, and notice that you're in a big open field, with the occasional tree. But what really stands out are the giant electrical pylons, stretching out seemingly infinitely into the field, providing an endless supply of electricity for the species that live here. At that point, you decide that it might be in your best interest to take a nap, when you see a male JoltikJoltik, combining Signal Beam, Electro Ball, and Hidden Power to keep the portal you came out of running.

Slowly coming to your senses, you see the Joltik, and groggily grab a Safari Ball. You toss it at the Joltik, who is caught easily. The portal, having no constant power supply, dissipates faster than you can blink, and you are left to wander around. Suddenly, you feel a poke, and you realize it's your Anorith, pointing out 2 blue points sticking up from the field. Remembering only one electric pokemon has blue points (I think) on top of it, you realize that it's a female MinunMinun.

Passing on by the strange blue points, you start seeing static shocks fly from another part of the field. Coming in closer to it, you notice it's a PichuPichu, discharging extra electricity.

Steering clear of the electricity, you wander around in the field for some time. Before long, you notice a yellow flash skirting around on the ground. It goes to rest on a nearby rock, and you see that it's a male Helioptilehelioptile, beginning to fall asleep.

Quietly stepping away from the Helioptile, you perambulate on into the field. Suddenly, you see some sort of black-and white pokemon with its head dipped down, which you realize is a female BlitzleBlitzle, grazing on the grass.

Cynder:
Leaving the Blitzle to its vegan meal, you start to trudge on, when you trip over something and take a nasty fall. Rubbing your knees, you sit up and turn to see what you tripped over, and your face turns pale. For there, resting in the grass, is a VoltorbVoltorb, looking furious. It starts to glow and crackle with electricity, as it prepares to blow up with anger, both metaphorically and literally.

Just a quick reminder: if you catch this, you'll have run out of safari balls. Do you want to get more, or leave the zone?
 
Cynder:
No problem, thats why I reminded you!

Scrambling away faster than you thought you could go, you duck for cover as the Voltorb spontaneously combusts. You wince and close your eyes, but after feeling no burns or knock back or anything for a good 10 seconds, you see that your Anorith set up a Protect to, well, protect against the explosion. Hugging your Anorith and feeling pretty grateful, you continue on, albeit pretty shaken up. All of a sudden, you see what looks like a white eel floating above your head. Initially brushing it off as a mirage, you remember that floating white eel Pokemon actually exists! You look back to where it was, and there floats a male Tynamotynamo, looking pretty relaxed.

Leaving the floaty white eel to its business, you continue on through the electric field. Suddenly, two RED points stick up from the grass, and you remember from experience that this is a female PluslePlusle. Something gleams beside the Plusle, and you notice it has an Electric Gemelectric-gem

Carefully aiming the ball at the pulse, you see a mirage of what appears to be a yellow circle around the Plusle, and you get a strong sense of deja vu. You fire off the ball, and you swear you hear the word "Nice!", and your deja vu gets a bit stronger, but you shake it off as nothing and pick up your newly caught Plusle and your newly acquired Electric Gem. You grab your next ball to get prepared if a rare Pokemon comes by, but you realize you've run out. Pressing the button on the PokeVend buzzer, you hear the familiar chopping of helicopter blades, and look in heir direction, and you notice that PokeVend has gone through a redesign: it's completely light blue, with a floating cube above it, and the words "GoVend" on it. When it gets close enough, you see a flashing message on the cube that says "Tap Here". You do so, and the cube turns into a poke ball-like object, with a revolving door-like thing where you insert $10. After that, it spits out 5 Safari Balls Balls in... bubbles?! A bit confused by this, you pop the bubbles and grab the Safari Balls. After that, a message appears on GoVend, saying "This has been a temporary redesign of PokeVend; please let us know your thoughts on it." GoVend then flies off, its poke ball thing turning back into a cube. A bit put off by the whole experience, you turn around and you see a male Mareepmareep, just staring at you.
