Echo the Rash Noivern in

"ECHOES AND PHEROMONES"


The sun was bearing down heavily on the Stony Wilderness of the Galarian Wild Area. It was a couple hours past midday, and a trainer and his Pokémon were starting to become exhausted.

"Echo, finish it off with Air Cutter!"

Niall, the trainer, had one hand on his Pokédex, and his other gesturing towards the target, giving his loyal Pokémon the order to attack.

"NOIIIII!!"

Two large, black and purple wings flapped down faster than you could see, sending waves of brutal energy through the air. The Noivern screeches loudly as he makes his attack, which is as precise as it is brutal. That little Salandit had no chance as the attack hits him, the energy hitting like a sharpened, hardened blade made out of air. It's not super-effective, but it doesn't need to be, as it is powerful enough to launch the Salandit into a large stone boulder, knocking it out cold.

"NOIII!!" Echo let out a sharp cry of pride, spreading his wings as if to gloat - though aside from Niall and the knocked-out Salandit, the gloat was to no-one.

"Awesome job as always, Echo!" Niall said enthusiastically. He came up behind the large bat-dragon and gave him a gentle pat on the shoulder. His face of pride quickly turned to one of disappointment though, as he looked down at his Pokédex once again. "Another male though... What is that, 30 in a row now?"

"Vern..." Echo's voice was equally disappointed, a low rumble emanating from his chest.

Niall and Echo were on the lookout for a very particular Pokémon - a Salandit - specifically a female one. They're the ones that evolve into Salazzle, after all. A glass-cannon of a Pokémon, intelligent, competitive and best of all, powerful. And to certain circles of the internet, a very... alluring one. But Niall was looking for one for the battle potential.

See, Niall has a problem.

A problem named "Sorbet".

Niall grew up alongside his friend Holly; same hometown, same trainer school, and same dream of taking on the Pokémon League. And while Niall was given a Noibat for his journey, Holly had been given an Alolan Vulpix - the first battle that they had, the ice-type absolutely demolished Echo without even trying. 

Fast forward, they both started to grow into formidable trainers with solid teams, and every time they met up, they battled. But every single time, the battle would be so close between the two, that it would end up being a battle between each team's aces - Echo the Noibat, and Sorbet the Alolan Vulpix. And Sorbet would pull out some Aurora Beam and just one-hit the Noibat.

It only got worse when they both evolved. Echo got a lot more powerful as a Noivern - fast like a whip and could hit like a freight train, but it was all for naught. When Sorbet evolved, he gained a new typing - fairy type. And now this ice-fox was impervious to half of Echo's best moves.

Niall has NEVER beaten Holly in a battle. And to her credit, Holly would never make fun or belittle her rival - she was a kind person, who really valued Niall's friendship, and was always super enthusiastic about battling with her friend.

But despite how friendly and genuine his rival was, losing that many times in a row started to take a genuine mental toll on him. He started to dread seeing Holly, and that fucking menace of an Alolan Ninetales. He started to see it as some insurmountable obstacle, like a mountain that he couldn't climb over. (A mountain in the shape of a friendly, goofy, fluffy Ninetales, with an adorable nickname!) In his mind, if he couldn't beat that Ninetales, how could he ever defeat The Champion?

Desperate times call for desperate measures, so he began to study, harder than he'd ever studied, to decide what would be the best Pokémon to defeat that Ninetales. 

Echo was completely supportive of this decision, by the way. Losing that many times in a row was hell for the Noivern, too. He was starting to see those wispy tails in his sleep, the shrill, goofy voice of the playful Ninetales had given him nightmares! So, he was totally happy to help Niall find that new team member - pride for defeating Sorbet himself be dammed! A Pokémon could only take so many ice beams to the chest!

It didn't take long for Niall to settle on Salazzle as his choice to join his team. Fire beats ice, poison beats fairy, and Salazzle were supposed to be very powerful.

To be honest, he didn't really research into it beyond the battle stats. He knew that they were female only, and that they attacked with some kind of toxic gas or something, but he didn't really know much more about them. Besides, he'd fought Pokémon that emit poison gas before, this shouldn't be any different... And anyway, he wasn't looking for a Salazzle, just a female Salandit.

But they were apparently IMPOSSIBLE to find!

Heck, in the time that you've been reading this, dear reader, Niall and Echo had fought and defeated another SEVEN male Salandit!

"Hells bells!" Niall shouted in frustration, kicking a rock on the ground, launching it down a nearby ravine. "This is getting RIDICULOUS!"

Equally frustrated, and visibly exhausted, Echo followed suit and kicked another small rock, sending it into the same ravine - perhaps out of solidarity with Niall? He then sat down on a small boulder, panting heavily. He was drenched in sweat, his fur beginning to become matted as the heat from the summer sun bore down on the pair. "Noiii...." 

Niall looked at his Pokémon with sympathy - Echo was trying so hard, just like he was, except he was doing all the work here. He walked over and sat down next to the Pokémon, before reaching into his backpack and fishing out a bottle of Fresh Water. "Here, bud. You need this."

Echo wasted no time in grabbing the bottle, holding it with his two claws. Within seconds, he'd consumed the entire thing. He burped after drinking it all in one go.

"Hehehe, never change, Ec..." Niall reached up and tussled the fluffy mane on his pokemon's back. "We need to rest, we gotta get out of this heat! Do you see any shade around here?"

The pair looked around, trying to see past the heat haze emanating from the ground, wafting in the air. They were deep into the Stony Wilderness though, aside from a couple palm trees and some kind of obelisk, there was no suitable shade anywhere. Suddenly, Echo pointed his claw to a distant cliff face.

Echo had much keener eyes than Niall, so the trainer took a pair of small binoculars from his backpack and looked in that direction. "Oh damn, a cave!" Sure enough, it was a cave in the wall, about half a mile away from where they were both sitting. 

"Noi!"

"Come on, let's get out of this fucking sunshine..." With a grunt, he stood up and tugged on Echo's wing until he did the same.

They both marched across the stony ground, Niall even took off his stylish Trainer Jacket and was using it as a shade cover for his face. Echo unfortunately had to march along with him. At one point Niall had offered to put Echo back into his Pokéball, but he flatly refused. He fucking hated that thing - it was always a struggle to get him into one at a Pokémon centre.

Finally, they arrived at the cave and immediately dashed into the shadowy entrance. The change was IMMEDIATE. It was a dry heat, so the shady cavern felt like an ice-bath in comparison to the heat out there.

"Oh, MEW, this is incredible!" Niall called out as he laid on the cool stone floor of the cave. Echo did almost the exact same thing, sprawling out on the ground next to his trainer.

They laid there for at least five minutes, just breathing heavily, enjoying the cool humidity of the entrance to the cave, before Niall sat up. He looked deeper into the cavern - it was amazingly well lit for something that seemed to be so deep! That seemed to be thanks to these gemstones that protruded through the walls periodically, giving off a faint purple light down the cavern. It was actually quite beautiful.

"Okay so, we're gonna agree to stay in here until the sun goes down, right?"

"Vern." Echo nodded affirmatively.

"Okay, good." There was a silence for a few moments, before Niall spoke up again. "So... now what?"

**********

The pair were eating two large sandwiches that Niall had prepared before they had left, enjoying their lunch while doing small Trainer-Chores; Niall was picking stones out of the sole of his boots, while Echo had taken it upon himself to organise the battle items in the backpack - for such a big Pokémon, he had such dainty, gentle claws, and a keen attention to detail. They had moved about fifty feet deeper into the cave, but neither wanted to venture much deeper than that, not yet anyway.

Suddenly, Echo's nose began to twitch.

Niall noticed this instantly, and though he couldn't smell anything, he knew that Echo could.

"What is it, buddy? Danger?"

Echo looked at his trainer and shook his head. He stood up and looked down the barrel of the cave and pointed, before starting to walk further in.

"H-Hey, where are you going?" Niall shouted, quickly scooping up the battle items into the backpack once again (completely ruining Echo's hard work, by the way), and started to follow behind his Pokémon. "Ec, you have to tell me what's up!"

Echo didn't respond verbally, instead, he turned his face towards Niall's and flashed a big, excited grin, before picking up the pace and running down the cavern, goofily flapping his arms as he ran on his hind legs.

"N-no... you can't be serious, in here?!"

He started to bolt into the cave as well, running past those gemstones, which seemed to glimmer as they reflected the light from the screen of his Pokédex. There was something else as well, a bit of an odd scent emanating from deep in the cave, like a faint scent of a perfume of some kind...

"Bud, slow down! Remember, humans are slower than you!" he called out, between breaths. Just then, his Pokédex pinged - there was something in this cave! He started to look at it as he ran, and he saw the notification, but before he could read it, he was stopped - 

Just ahead, Echo had stopped moving, and had stretched out his winged arm to gesture for his trainer to stop. Unfortunately for Niall, he didn't stop, and as clotheslined by his Pokémon, sending him to the ground with a grunt and a loud thud.

"FUCK. Echo! What did you- MMMPH!"

Echo suddenly crouched down and desperately covered his trainer's mouth until Niall stopped trying to shout. Finally, he seemed to understand, and shut up. "What is it?!" His voice was urgent, but whispered.

"Noi..." Echo's voice was a whisper as he helped his trainer up, and together they both skulked over to a crop of stalagmites. They were just on the outside of a large cavernous chamber, a few more steps and they'd be out in the open area. Though the scent was starting to become a lot stronger - like whatever was making the scent had to be coming from this chamber.

It was the end of the cavern too - there were no other ways in or out, this was the final section and it was a big one. But the most prominent feature of the cave wasn't anything to do with the cave itself, it had to do with what was in the middle of it all. Slowly, Niall and Echo poked their heads above the stalagmite formation to get a good look at it.

A large, makeshift nest sat in the middle of the chamber. It was made of mud, grass, sticks, and various bits and bobs - scavenged bits of fabric and assorted items. And a large, dark-coloured form lay in the middle of that nest.

It was hard to make out any details, but a faint pink glow was emanating from the creature, from the markings on its chest and the underside of its tail. And though Niall had only seen pictures of it, he knew immediately what this creature was.

"Salazzle..." he muttered to himself quietly. He had a determined frown on his face as slunk back down, out of sight. Echo followed suit, until they were both sitting with their backs against the stalagmites. "It looks like it's asleep..."

"Vern." Echo nodded.

"Why is it alone though? They're supposed to have like... a team with them, right?"

"Vern." Echo nodded again.

"It's not a Salandit though... it's gonna be a tough battle if we're not careful... Are you up to this, Echo?"

"Vern." Echo nodded for a third time.

"...Are you listening to me, or just agreeing to whatever I say?"

Echo didn't reply this time. He just had a blush on his face - though, his expression wasn't one of embarrassment or shame. "Vern, Noi- vern." He actually looked quite flushed.

"Hang on, are you feeling alright bud?" Niall asked, feeling a bit of concern for his Pokémon. Alarm bells were starting to ring faintly in the trainer's head.

Echo cocked his head and looked at his trainer - Niall was also looking a little flushed. "Noi?" He quickly grabbed Niall's head with his two claws and began to swivel it around, inspecting the trainer - who was none too thrilled to be manhandled like that.

"Knock it off, Ec!" he complained, before reaching up and pulling Echo's claws away. "I'm fine, I'm the one worried about YOU" - his voice was picking up just a little bit.

"Vern?" He seemed almost a little offended. "N-Noi! Vern!" He then pointed at Niall's face with his claw - his tone sounding like a mix between concerned and accusatory.

"F-Fine, whatever, just..." His voice trailed off, and for a split second he looked into the distance, before snapping back to reality. "Sh-shit, it's getting warm in here..." he mumbled.

"Noi..." Echo seemed to agree. They were both flushed and were starting to feel kind of weird, though they couldn't put a finger on what was wrong.

Niall looked up at his partner's face once more, and there was something different again.

"Wait... why do you look kinda... pink... now..." His voice trailed off as he looked over at the nest again. A sudden realisation set in - the Salazzle was gone! "ECHO, USE AGILITY!" He screamed suddenly.

In the nick of time, the very last split-second, Echo managed to push himself backwards at a high speed, just before a flaming tail came crashing down from above, just barely grazing Echo as he dove out of the way. The flames of the tail were a bright pink colour.

The Salazzle had gotten the drop on them, while they were distracted in their little conversation. Though she missed the attack, she bounded back up and reared onto her hind-legs, her markings glowing with a brilliant pink. "LAZZZZZ!!!" she hissed loudly, whipping her tail around in a threatening display.

A plume of dust was kicked up as Niall scrambled to his feet, in a battle-ready pose. "That was too close! Don't take your eyes off of her, Echo! We can do this! SUPERSONIC!!"

Niall covered his ears as Echo threw his head back for half a second. He then thrust his head forward, as ultra-sonic, piercing waves of sound began to pulse from his wide-open mouth. The rings of sound are visible, and it hits the Salazzle directly, dazing it.

That wouldn't be enough though, and the Salazzle went on the offensive right away. She opened her mouth and started to haphazardly spew balls of fire around the area - an Incinerate attack! She was clearly confused by Echo's attack, but was hopefully attacking wide enough to hit Echo. And hit it did - one of the projectiles hitting Echo in the wing, causing him to screech in pain.

"ECHO, USE AGILITY AND GET SOME DISTANCE!"

Niall didn't even need to finish the command before Echo beat his wings and took off, deeper into the cavern, until he was hovering in place in the centre, a few feet away from the stone roof overhead.

In the time that he'd spent getting that distance, the Salazzle shook her head violently, shaking away the sense of confusion inflicted by the Supersonic attack. She looked up at Echo with a look that was equal parts anger and determination. She raised a finger and swirled it around a little bit - forming a thread made of energy. It was a bright blue colour, and was growing rapidly. And suddenly, the Salazzle thrust her hand forward, and the thread formed a large net of energy, launching towards Echo.

"THAT'S A DISABLE ATTACK! DODGE IT!!" Niall shouted out.

Unfortunately, despite the distance he'd made, there was really no way to dodge the attack in the cave like this. The energy-net was wide, so wide that he couldn't dive under it in time. And as soon as one of the threads of energy touched one of his wings, it all suddenly wrapped around him, causing the Noivern to fall from the air and land on the ground.

"NOIIIIII!!" Echo screeched as he lay on the ground, trying to break free of the attack.

"Ngh... HANG ON, TRY TO DEFEND YOURSELF!" Niall shouted out. His instinct was to run up and help his Pokémon, but he knew better than to jump in, especially if a fire-type was involved.

And this was no ordinary fire-type. A wild Salazzle could be a dangerous opponent, for a number of reasons. And if Niall had taken more time to study up on the species, he might know that the risk of being burned wasn't the only reason he should keep his distance.

And right now, he was only a few feet from the lizard...

But she didn't seem to be interested in him. The trainer wasn't the threat, after all. The Salazzle turned and gave Niall a considering glance, before turning her head and walking away from him... Though, she didn't just walk away, she also gave a strangely sensual flick of her tail as she turned. Her markings glowed brightly, and emitted more of that funny-smelling stuff, this time so concentrated that it was visible as a pink haze, which circled around Niall's head. The scent got a LOT more intense all of a sudden...

Meanwhile, Echo was unaware of what the Salazzle had just done, he was too distracted. "Vern... N-Noi..." He muttered to himself as he struggled against the net of energy, disabling him from making any attacks, or even escaping.

Meanwhile, the Salazzle looked satisfied that she had subdued her prey, and she kept slowly advancing upon the Noivern. Its pink markings glowed brilliantly as it sauntered towards Echo, her hips swaying as she walked, her tail flicking around seductively, letting off more and more of that pink mist...

Luckily for Echo though, he was too focussed on his bindings to notice the Lizard's attempts at seduction. Niall however, was not so lucky. He was looking right at it, and from behind as well, so he was receiving quite the eyeful as he watched the backside of the sauntering Salazzle. Her tail raised high; he saw everything.

"VERN! NOIVERN!!" Echo shouted out, a hint of worry on his voice as he kept struggling.

"Ngh... E-Echo..." Niall wasn't doing so great. That funny feeling that he had seemed to be intensifying, the sensation that he had gotten from breathing in the scent earlier had become borderline debilitating - especially as he locked his eyes on the Salazzle's backside. He could even see her sex, though to him it looked quite alien.

Echo was VERY worried that his trainer wasn't responding, "VERRRN!! N-NOIIIII!!" He shouted at his trainer, who seemed to shake his head...

"Huh? W-What's..." 

It was no good, the Salazzle was right atop Echo, standing tauntingly close to him. He'd have to take this into his own claws, and so his throat began to rumble.

The Salazzle didn't seem to notice, however. Instead, she confidently lowered herself onto all fours, and crawled up so that she was face-to-face with Echo. She raised a finger, her pink pattern still emanating that mist, and inhaled, ready to blow something in Echo's face.

But Echo wasn't about to go down so easily!

He opened his mouth, and just before the Salazzle could unleash whatever attach she had, he unleashed a powerful Dragon Pulse attack, right in the Salazzle's face!

The burst of blue, flame like energy, hit Salazzle right in the face, and hit her with such force that it launched her upwards, smacking her against the roof of the cavern.

His energy renewed, Echo stands up straight and opens his wings - snapping the Disable threads with ease. And in a show of pride, he beat his wings a few times, causing a small gust to blow around the area, disturbing the pink mist, causing it to swirl around the cavern instead of laying stagnant.

Niall took a couple deep breaths - this time not inhaling any of that funny-smelling, pink mist, and his mind began to clear a bit. It was like he came crashing back to Earth, suddenly acutely aware of the situation he was in, and he was also hit with the realisation that this pink mist was fucking his mind up. The first thing he did was pull the top of his shirt upwards, to cover his mouth and nose with fabric - like a makeshift gas mask. Then he called out to Echo,

"You're doing great, bud! Stay away from the pink mist!" His voice was urgent, but still authoritative, like any good trainer's should be. "It messes with your head, keep flapping your wings to blow it away!"

Echo turned and nodded his head, affirmatively to his trainer. He then turned back around to face the Salazzle, who just jumped back upright and got into a determined battle stance.

Suddenly, the Salazzle opened her mouth and started to spew out a huge burst of flames, tinged purple. A brutal flame thrower attack.

"V-VERN!" It took Echo by surprise, but he managed to dodge out of the way by flying up into the air once again. But unfortunately for Echo, that seemed to be a distraction, as suddenly he was set upon by the Salazzle, who jumped into the air and directly towards the Noivern. 

"LAZZZZZ!!!" The Salazzle hissed, flying towards Echo, but holding what looked like a whip made of fire! A Fire Lash attack, something that Niall had read about, and hoped he wouldn't come face-to-face with.

Echo was hit directly in the left wing by the Fire Lash attack. "NOIIIIIIIIIII!" he screeched. It was technically 'not very effective', but it still seemed to really hurt the Noivern, who fell from the sky once again. He landed in a much safer way this time, but he wouldn't be flying again in this matchup.

"Ngh... Hang in there Ec! Do you want me to switch you out?"

"VERN!" He shouted, sounding angry at the suggestion. He looked quite hurt from that attack, a visible burn on his left wing. Looks like he won't be making any physical attacks anymore today. But that was okay, he was hurt, but he wasn't done, and he stood back upright, just in time to see the Salazzle rear back up for another attack.

"WAIT UNTIL SHE COMES CLOSE, THEN HIT HER WITH AIR CUTTER!"

And sure enough, Niall's instincts for battle really shined under the pressure, and as the Salazzle jumped at Echo once again, he slashed at the air with his right wing, causing a large blade of energy to launch at the Salazzle, knocking her off her course.

"LAZZZ!!" She hissed, aborting her attack to dodge the Air Cutter attack. She landed awkwardly, but then immediately jumped again, to try and hit Echo with another Fire Lash.

Just because he was a sitting Psyduck without two working wings, that did not mean that Echo was defenceless. Four or five more times, she tried to jump and lash the Noivern, but with those Air Cutter attacks, she couldn't get close enough without putting herself in danger.

"THAT'S IT, KEEP IT UP!" Niall shouted out. He took his eyes off the battle for a moment to start searching through his backpack for a Full Heal. 

But Salazzle wasn't a foolish Pokémon. Whether it was out of frustration, or if it was a conscious decision to change her tactics, she stopped her onslaught and instead clambered up onto a large stone platform. And she started glowing even brighter - specifically her pink patterns on her chest, belly, and tail. She was expelling all of her pheromones!

The pink mist dispersed through the air, flooding it, causing no small amount of alarm to Echo. "N-NOI!! NOIVERN!!" His voice was urgent, trying to get Niall's attention.

"Fuck... what is up with this Salazzle?!" Niall shouted, dropping the Full Heal back in his backpack, only to look up and see the lizard flooding the air with the pink mist. He realised that this was VERY bad - they couldn't fight properly if they both fell victim to this Salazzle's tactics - she just had to wait for this stuff to have its effect. "ECHO, DON'T BREATHE IT IN!! BLOW IT AWAY WITH YOUR WINGS!!"

"VERRRRN!!" Echo shouted, flapping his good wing around, causing another updraft - a basic Gust attack, to buy him some time, blowing the mist back towards its source. He wouldn't be able to keep this up forever though. And even more concerning is that he was blowing so much of the mist back towards the Salazzle that it started to become opaque - a pink cloud that he couldn't see through - a perfect smokescreen for the Salazzle.

"You need to attack! Use Air Cutter at the pink cloud!"

With one desperate, powerful slash in the air, Echo shot a huge Air Cutter attack, shooting it at the cloud at breakneck speed! And it hit the cloud directly! But unfortunately, there was no-one there.

The Salazzle had disappeared in the pink haze.

"N-NOI!"

"FUCK! KEEP YOUR EYES PEELED, SHE COULD BE ANYWHERE!"

The Salazzle in reality had made her pink pattern stop glowing, and she faced the wall. Using her powerful limbs and deft, long fingers to climb up the wall, and was now slinking along the walls of the cavern. With her belly facing the wall, she was able to camouflage against the dark, shadowy walls of the cave almost perfectly. The dark grey scales were a perfect colour, and with no light to cause the sleek, smooth scales to sparkle, she couldn't be seen with the naked eye...

With the Salazzle now missing, Echo stopped flapping his wings. He had to keep his eyes open - if she got the drop on them, it would be very bad. He couldn't be distracted by the oncoming pink mist, he just had to hope that they found her before the mist caught up with them.

"She's hiding... what a crafty thing she is..." Niall muttered. He racked his brain for a solution, but how would you find a Pokémon if you couldn't even see it?! Maybe there was another way... "Echo... Dragon Pulse at the next thing you hear, got it?"

This was something that the Salazzle wasn't counting on, and maybe something that she couldn't possibly have realised; that Echo's massive, dinnerplate-sized ears gave him ultra-sonic hearing. It wouldn't be her fault, wild Salazzle and wild Noivern had very different habitats, so Echo was probably the first she'd ever encountered.  His sense of hearing was almost unmatched, it basically gave him a sense of radar. And even though he was in pain, exhausted from flapping his wing, and a little distracted by the encroaching pink mist, those ears still worked like a charm. Salazzle thought she was being clever by hiding the glow of her markings and camouflaging herself against the dark walls of the cavern, but she still had a heartbeat, and that was enough for Echo.

He turned his head towards the almost-imperceptible sound of a heartbeat and let loose a Dragon Pulse. It glowed bright, brilliant blue as it barrelled towards the target - the Salazzle was so shocked that she didn't have enough time to make an escape!

The attack hit the Salazzle directly.

"SAAAAAHH!!" She hissed and fell to the ground - it was quite a fall and the impact dazed her, letting out a grunt of pain as she hit the ground. "Lazzle..." She was spent. That was it for her, she clearly wasn't going to fight anymore.

Not even a full second had passed before a Luxury Ball sailed through the air towards the KO'd Salazzle. It bonked her on the belly, bounced backwards and opened wide, bathing the feminine lizard in a shimmery red light. The Salazzle dematerialised and was sucked into the Luxury ball.

It shook once, twice, three times.

Click.

Niall's Pokédex dinged, the notification for a new Pokémon being registered onto his team.

"Wow, we actually did it..." Niall muttered, picking up the ball and admiring it.

"N-Noi..." Echo approached, walking up to his trainer, inspecting the ball as well. He seemed apprehensive, like he wasn't sure about having this new Pokémon on the team, especially if it was as conniving as it proved to be in that battle.

"We actually, DID IT, Echo!!" Niall shouted, jumping up and hugging his partner tight, overwhelmed by pride and excitement. "You did SO GOOD! I'm so lucky to have you as a partner, Ec!"

Echo noticed that Niall was a little more affectionate than usual, but he chalked it up to his excitement. After all, he was excited too - they caught the Pokémon that they came here for!

"Noi!" he muttered excitedly, hugging his trainer back, though almost immediately, he winced and pulled back - that burn was really starting to hurt!

"Fuck, that's right!" Niall knelt down and put his backpack on the floor of the cavern, opening it up. It was nearly completely full of stuff, various supplies and snacks, as well as the Pokéballs of the other Pokémon on the team - he didn't actually have one of those proper trainer belts, so they sat neatly at the top of his backpack, in case he needed to call on them.

He put the Salazzle's ball inside the bag and pulled out the Full Heal he had before. As he looked up though, he was taken aback by what he saw.

Echo's cock was slowly appearing between his legs, slipping out of its slit. The turquoise-coloured appendage was gently slipping out and hardening in the cool, humid cave air.

Niall's gaze lingered, considerably longer than it should have, as he watched his partner become erect. He'd seen it before, for sure. They'd been partners for so long, they've both seen each other's privates. But it was a taboo subject - they never acknowledged it. And even though there was something much more... intimate about it this time around, Niall decided that he would continue to not acknowledge it. He had to treat Echo's burn, after all.

"Come on, give me your wing." He said gently as he stood up, Full Heal in hand. Echo didn't really respond outside of craning himself down so that Niall could do his thing. Niall pointed the nozzle at the burn and began to spray it. The golden-coloured mist sprayed out and started working immediately. The redness under his wing-fur eased, treating the burn. Heck, it even un-singed his fur! "Here, that feel better, Ec?"

Echo didn't respond. He didn't even really look at his trainer, he was staring off into the distance, breathing heavily. His mouth was agape, his tongue hanging out as he was panting.

"E-Echo? Are you okay, bud?" Niall was immediately concerned - he'd never seen this from his Pokémon before. Then he remembered - "T-The mist!!!"

While they were distracted after capturing the Salazzle, the pink, swirling mist had spread through the cavern again, no longer being blown back by the Noivern's gust. And they were both completely immersed in it now, it was like looking at everything through a light pink haze. And as Echo was breathing faster and faster, he was inhaling more and more of it. It didn't burn or hurt to breathe in, thankfully. If anything, it was almost a little bit pleasant - a faint sweet scent in the air, and a faint sugary taste in the mouth. But it did seem to make his head swim when he inhaled deeply...

Niall shook his head and was coherent for the moment. He tried not to breath as heavily, and he'd been ducking down for a bit there, out of the mist, so it hadn't really hit him yet. But now...

"E-Echo... We need to get out of here..." He said, not noticing that his words were slurring. He looked down at Echo's cock once again, it was now FULLY erect, twitching and throbbing.

Suddenly, Echo moved forward and embraced his trainer in a tight hug. "Verrrn..." His voice had a purr to it. Niall felt the long, smooth, tapered cock throbbing against him, something wet soaking into his shirt too.

"E-ECHO! WH-WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Niall shouted, sounding confused and scared. "I- I- I'm not a Pokémon!" 

This seemed to shake Echo out of it for a moment. "Noiii..." He whined, letting go of his trainer and taking a few steps back. He looked absolutely pitiful like that; Niall had never seen him looking quite so... needy before. His face was flushed, his cock was twitching and dripping precum onto the stone floor of the cavern, now fully erect, sticking out of the slit between his legs.

Niall blinked slowly, he was starting to feel really weird, especially as he looked at his pokemon's erect cock. He'd seen Echo's dick before, but never like this! "Echo... I d-don't..." His voice trailed off; his own face was beginning to become flushed. He felt so... warm, almost uncomfortably so. And was it just him, or were his pants starting to feel really tight as well? He was breathing in more and more of that pink mist, with no idea what it was really doing to him... "W-we need to go... This... This is bad, Ec..."

Echo wasn't listening though, he had stepped backwards, until he was leaning his back against a sturdy stalagmite. He then reached one of his claws around and tried to grab his cock. He was trying to masturbate!

"E-Echo, c-come on, we need to-"

"N-NOI!" Echo's voice was snappy and desperate. He wouldn't be going anywhere. His mouth was a gape, panting and drooling as he awkwardly tried to grasp his twitching cock with his claws. "N-noi... vern..." he moaned as he fumbled around, trying to elicit some kind of satisfaction. He REALLY needed to get off, urgently. This mist had totally fucked him up.

Niall however was still coherent for now. He had pulled his shirt back up over his nose once again to make a temporary, barely-effective gas mask. He just watched in a mix of awe, concern, and some other emotion that he couldn't bring himself to confront...

"I-It's alright! I-I'll find out what to do!" He shouted out to the Noivern who completely ignored his trainer. Niall pulled his Pokédex out again, noting that there was a large, flashing "Warning" notification on the screen.

    WARNING: Salazzle Pheromone Detected in air. 
    Potency: VERY HIGH
    Seek Fresh Air Immediately.
    Recall all gendered Pokémon into their Pokéball

"P-Pheromone?! I thought it was poison gas!" He shouted, frustrated with himself. He quickly opened up the Pokédex entry for Salazzle and started reading through it.

    "While Salazzle attack with gaseous attacks like Poison Gas, and Smog, they have been observed using an as-yet     undocumented attack to subdue their prey - the attack involves expelling potent pheromones from glands in their body. The attack leaves their target confused and addled; Salazzle uses this to try and breed with the target."

    "The pheromone is similar to the one it uses to mark its territory, and to build its "harem" of Salandit to care for the female Pokémon. Though when it uses the pheromones offensively, it is much more potent. However, Salazzle are normally safe to battle, large open areas mitigate the effects. 

    "Battling Salazzle in a confined space is not advised."

"Well, duh..." he muttered to himself. Niall lifted his head, and looked around. Now that he thought about it, this cavern was a lot smaller than he realised. "Hell's bells, this is bad..." He said, looking up at Echo.

Echo's desperation had only gotten worse. His masturbation with his claws must have been uncomfortable, as Niall watched him suddenly stop and let out a shout of frustration, "VERRRN!" He then looked around in a strange haze, giving Niall a lingering stare, before turning his head towards a nearby boulder, covered in moss. It was about dick-height for the Pokémon, who quickly moved over to the boulder and started humping it. The moss made it softer than it would otherwise have been, but at the end of the day, he was still trying to fuck a rock.

"I don't know if that will be any better buddy..." he said, in a sympathetic tone. Niall read on, tapping a link on the Pokédex entry that opened up a danger sheet for the Salazzle Pheromone. Strangely, he had to verify his age before continuing.

    "Salazzle Pheromones are absorbed via breathing, and to a lesser extent, through skin contact. An affected Pokémon will be afflicted with an intense, overwhelming desire to breed. Pokémon will behave as is if they were afflicted by a particularly intense heat, and the suddenness of the affliction can make this even more extreme. To this end, some Pokémon Breeders use a distilled version of the pheromone to assist Pokémon mating.

    "Salazzle Pheromone Affliction is rare, but cases have been documented, particularly in the Alola Region. There are anecdotes that humans can also be affected by the pheromone, but it is the consensus of the scientific community that this is a myth. There are no scientifically documented examples that the pheromone affects Humans to the extent that affects Pokémon. While trainers-"

"NOIIIIIII!!" Echo let out an angry yell of dissatisfaction as he stopped grinding his cock against the rock. Immediately, he rolled onto his back, on top of the mossy rock, and started trying to use his claws again.

"Echo, I'm trying to help! I don't know what's wrong!" Niall shouted out, frustrated and feeling more and more woozy by the second. He was desperately trying to avoid looking at that long, hard, throbbing Pokémon cock, twitching in time with Echo's heartbeat. "It's in here, okay, just trust me! I'll help you!" He kept reading.

    "While trainers may feel concerned for Pokémon that have been affected, it is not deadly, and will pass as soon as the pokemon's body metabolises the pheromones. Antidotes and Full Heals both currently have no effect on the affliction. Fresh water and fresh air can expedite this. It is generally also not advised, but it has also been observed that allowing the afflicted Pokémon to breed can drastically reduce the symptoms, at least temporarily until the effect wears off naturally."    

A blush formed on Niall's face. "Allowing the afflicted Pokémon to breed can drastically reduce the symptoms"... That was just nerd-talk for "Let the Pokémon fuck to calm them down."

"N-No... that can't be right! That CAN'T be right!" He crammed his Pokédex back into the bag and started to rummage through his backpack again, fishing out another bottle of Full-Heal. It took him quite a while to find it, it was his last bottle, apparently. "I-It's just like poison, right? Or a-a burn? It's got to work!" He picked it up and looked at the customer information at the bottom of the bottle.

    "Suitable for poisonings, paralysis, burns, freezing, sleep, and confusion"

"Y-Yeah! Confusion, that's gotta be it!" He gingerly approached the twitchy, horny Pokémon. The bottle of Full Heal in his hand, which for some reason seemed to be quivering as he extended it towards the Noivern. Quivering with fear? With something else?

Echo was very dissatisfied, very edgy and antsy, trying to satisfy his huge erection. He didn't pay any attention to his trainer, his maw agape and panting, drooling; trying to grasp his erection with his sharp claws without hurting himself. This proved to be too fine of a tightrope to walk though, and he gave one more desperate squeeze before he suddenly lashed out! "NOIIIII!" He screeched, his tone pained, frustrated, angry, and desperate. He beat his wings as he did so, accidentally hitting the bottle of Full Heal in Niall's hand, smacking it downward, smashing it onto the ground, spilling it everywhere.

"N-NO!" Niall shouted, kneeling down and tossing his backpack to the side to free up both of his hands, to try and salvage some of the potent liquid. He accidentally tossed the bag too hard, and it toppled over, spilling some of the contents out of the bag - including the Luxury Ball which he had just caught the Salazzle with.

The Luxury ball rolled out of the bag and rolled somewhere out of sight, tumbling down a bunch of natural slopes and cracks of the cavern...

Niall didn't notice that though, he was too distracted trying to scoop some of it up from the dusty, stone floor of the cavern, but to no avail - the bottle had a big gaping hole in it and wound not function anymore. "FUCK!" He shouted, standing up.

As he stood, he was literally facing the large erection. Echo was looking down at Niall, sitting on the edge of the mossy rock, his cock only a few inches from his face. "Vernnn..." The Pokémon moaned quietly, looking down at his trainer. There was a needy look in his eyes, almost like he was hungry, desperate for help.

"Echo..." Niall moaned quietly, constantly glancing between his companion's needy face, and his large cock. It was a BIG one too. It was about the length of Niall's forearm, tapered at the tip, and getting thicker towards the base. It was also ridged along the underside, and teal coloured, the same colour as the insides of his large ears. And it was already leaking precum from the tip.

He blushed uncontrollably looking at the member, his own pants uncomfortably tight. His thoughts weren't clear, everything was a haze as the mist and the sight of the cock seemed so... inviting... "N-Noi?" Echo's voice was a pathetic little whine now, as if asking his trainer for help.

While he was even able to, Niall considered his options - before the mist made that impossible. The first option would be to try and snap Echo out of it - find his Pokéball, recall him and get him to a Pokémon centre. Easy enough, but he'd have to put Echo through a lot of mental, physical and sexual anguish to do that - if he could even do it before he succumbed to the mist himself.

He could also maybe bring one of his female Pokémon out to try and help him deal with the situation - but that would mean exposing another Pokémon to the pheromone-filled air, and then things could go from bad to worse. So that was out of the question.

And then, there was the much more... taboo option - try and alleviate Echo's needs by himself. It was a line he never considered crossing before, hell he'd never found Echo sexually attractive before (or, perhaps he never let himself consider it), and once he crossed said line, he couldn't go back - things would forever be different between them.

There weren't any other options available - at least, none that he could think of. He decided that he couldn't bring another Pokémon into the fold here, it was too risky. Which meant he had to either let Echo suffer, or try and help him.

But, in the end he decided that he couldn't bring himself to let Echo suffer. He just couldn't do it - yeah, he could drag the Pokémon out into the open air outside the cavern, but he couldn't bear the thought of making the Pokémon wallow in discomfort any longer. 

That left him with one option.

His right hand reached forward until his knuckle brushed against Echo's cock. It twitched, a drip of clear precum dripping out, landing on the ground underneath. Echo let out a low whine, his body shuddering as he felt the warmth of Niall's hand on his cock.

"Th-This is just to help you, okay?" He said, trying to be reassuring. Though, it was difficult to say which of the two he was trying to reassure - Echo, or himself. "Y-Your claws won't work. And... We need you to deal with this, so we can get to safety." He said, trying to stay as matter-of-fact as possible, which was difficult to do when you were wrapping your hand around a pokemon's erect, throbbing cock.

"N-Noi..." Echo groaned, leaning back a bit, inadvertently thrusting his hips forward more, poking his cock out just a bit further. Niall wasn't expecting the movement, and the cock slipped through his hand. Echo shivered with pleasure, his tongue rolling out of his mouth and dripping saliva onto his own chest.

Niall began to stroke the pokemon's erection, gently squeezing as he did so. "What am I doing?!" He thought to himself as he gently stroked the Pokémon. He was on autopilot, not even sure if he was the one in charge here, or if the pheromones had affected his mind. "I should stop this... I should stop - maybe he's so addled that he won't remember, we can go back to as if this had never happened..." He was trying to convince himself to stop, giving himself an out.

And yet.

He didn't stop.

His hand kept moving - in fact, it was joined by his other hand, which reached down to gently squeeze around the base of his cock. He had a cursory knowledge of Pokémon breeding, some Pokémon had knots and he figured that they could be sensitive; knots were near the base of the cock, so possibly, that would be a more sensitive spot? And he figured that while he was still coherent enough to think of something other than sex, it would be best to get Echo off as quickly as he could. Also, it would just make him feel better - wasn't this technically abuse? So, it's only logical, the quicker Echo gets off, the better it would be for just about every reason.

He squeezed a little tighter, precum dripped down Echo's cock in spurts, covering Niall's hands - something that he found repulsive, but at the same time, he pushed through, using it as lubricant to get his Pokémon off. Yes, that's it. He definitely found it repulsive, there definitely wasn't any reason why he would find this so incredibly primal and alluring...

"Come on buddy... You need to finish... S-So we can get out of here..." He found that his words seemed to slur, his own mouth was thick with saliva. A little bit of drool escaped the corner of Niall's mouth as he pumped his hands up and down, rhythmically stroking the pokemon's erection. He felt the warm, bestial cock surge as it throbbed in his hands. Up and down, up and down he stroked, and it seemed to have an immediate effect on the Noivern.

There was a problem though. Even though Niall's hands were a million times better than trying to hump a moss-covered rock, it still seemed like it just wasn't doing enough to get Echo close to cumming.

But it wasn't just that. Niall could potentially power through and probably get Echo to cum eventually, but unfortunately, he too was being affected by the pheromones hanging in the air. And though it was to a lesser extent than it had affected Echo, he still found himself looking at Echo's beastly erection as it throbbed in his hands. And because of that, he felt his pants getting tighter and tighter as he felt a different kind of throbbing as well. And not just that, but his body felt HOT. Uncomfortably hot, and the fabric touching his skin made him feel hugely antsy. He started feeling a desperate need to take his clothes off, but they remained on for now... He still had some semblance of dignity...

The cock looked more and more appealing the longer he jerked his Pokémon off. Niall had never really gotten this close a look at it; it was just too much of a taboo for any regular trainer to even consider. But now that he was here, "helping" Echo, watching the oozing precum flow from the tip and drip all over his hands, his mind started to wander... What would it be like to suck this cock?

That thought was suddenly interrupted by a slightly-salty, watery, gooey sensation in his mouth. He opened his eyes wide and realised that the tip of Echo's cock was inside his mouth. He didn't even notice his head moving closer and closer, his mouth opening wider and wider, until he managed to suckle the tip of Echo's member, his mouth filling with the taste of potent precum. Part of his brain was disgusted, telling him to spit it out; and he probably would have without a second thought, were it not for that pink, swirling mist, filling his lungs and addling his mind.

But he was further down the Raboot-Hole than he'd like to admit, and so instead of violently yanking his head away and spitting out the precum, he instinctively swallowed the mouthful, feeling the sticky substance drip down his gullet. Though, it remained to be seen whether the Salazzle pheromones had overridden his instincts, or if this was something he subconsciously wanted all along. Maybe he'd never know, but right now, that mouth wasn't leaving Echo's cock until the Pokémon came.

And speaking of Echo, he seemed to be VERY receptive to the sudden warm, set sensation enveloping his cock. He was panting heavily, the pink mist visibly filling and exiting the pokemon's lungs as his chest heaved. He was blushing heavily; it was even visible through the pink-tinged air that the pair were breathing. And his cock throbbed in Niall's mouth, more and more of his precum flooded the trainer's mouth, filling it with the primal, taboo taste of Noivern cock. He chirred contentedly, the oral work doing great wonders to help placate the Pokémon.

"V-Vern..." He sighed. He brought one of his claws up and placed it at the side of Niall's face, stroking his chin with the blunt back of his claws. It was a surprisingly tender moment from the Pokémon, who seemed to be showing great appreciation for his trainer.

Niall looked up at his Pokémon, and their eyes met. And for a fleeting moment, there seemed to be a connection, an unspoken feeling, that the two hadn't shared ever since the day they first pet back at the Professor's lab. Maybe it was an effect of the pheromones, maybe it was actually a momentary reprieve from them, but for a moment, something felt like... like it made sense, like the intimacy was all that mattered between the two.

And then, reality came crashing back down when Echo's claw found the back of Niall's head, and pulled him down, further onto his cock, until the long, teal erection was pressing against the back of his trainer's throat, causing Naill to gag loudly.

In a moment of panic, brought on by that feeling of choking, Niall pushed Echo's claw away and pulled the cock from his mouth. A mouthful of spit and precum followed the cock, dribbling down his chin and onto his shirt. "H-Hells bells... E-Echo, be careful!" He scolded between coughs, his voice raspy for a few moments. "If we're gonna do this... J-Just... Just take it easy, please!"

Echo nodded, his face a clear mixture of embarrassment and neediness. He would try his best not to be rough with his trainer, but Echo wasn't totally in control of his own actions right now - he was at the mercy of his instincts, and they were constantly screaming "Breed! Breed! Breed!"

Niall bobbed his head up and down Echo's cock. He was mostly going on instinct as well - he'd never sucked a dick before, let alone a pokemon's dick, but he HAD a dick, so he had some kind of idea what would and wouldn't feel good. He was nervous, and much hornier than he should have been considering the circumstances, but he still wanted things to be as comfortable for Echo as he could make them.

He could get about half of Echo's Noivern Cock into his mouth before the tip pressed against the back of his throat, and his gag reflex over, forcing him to pull it back. He got into a pretty good rhythm, though his jaw did strain a little bit as he tried his very best to stop his teeth from touching the pokemon's sensitive, throbbing member. His hands were busy too, one of them wrapping around the base of the cock, gently twisting and squeezing, adding to Echo's intense pleasure. 

The Noivern LOVED every moment of the treatment. His claws were at the back of Niall's head, gently coaxing him forward and back, encouraging him to bob his head at the speed he liked the best. Eventually, Niall just let himself go limp and let the Pokémon fuck his face, using his mouth like a breeding toy. "GLLK... GLLK... GLLK..." Niall gagged each time he felt the twitchy member touch the back of his throat, periodically swallowing all the precum that Echo left in his wake.

Then all of a sudden, Niall heard Echo grunt, "V-VERRRRRN!" and he pushed Niall down as far as he could - not all the way down, but the tip of his cock did slip down his throat. It was beginning, Echo's orgasm. "NOI-OI-OI-OI!!!!"

Instantly, Niall pressed his hands against Echo's thighs and tried to push his horny Pokémon back, but a moment later, he felt the cock throb and send the first spurt of Noivern cum right down his throat. He swallowed instinctively, the first rope of Echo's orgasm, and as he pushed himself away, the second one flooded his mouth - so much that he couldn't swallow it all down. Some of it got caught in his throat and he gagged and coughed it out of his nose, a cum bubble appearing out of his left nostril.

The cock popped free of Niall's mouth mid-orgasm as he pushed his Pokémon away in a mild panic. The next few ropes of cum sprayed all over the trainer's face, chest, and hands. He felt the warm spunk soak into his shirt and land on his skin. And with the cum up his nostrils, he got a VERY potent smell of the intoxicating arousal - though he did have to cough it out first.

"Arceus... Echo... Y-You got it all over me..." he said, as the last few spurts of cum dribbled down his hand, which was still gently squeezing and pumping Echo's sensitive cock. His tongue swished around his mouth for a few moments, tasting the cum, before swallowing what remained inside his mouth. The taste was... unusual. Earthy, a little salty, and slightly bitter. He felt odd about it, because he actually enjoyed it much more than he should have.

Echo seemed spent, thankfully. At least for the moment. He moved backwards, leaning against the mossy rock, throwing his head back and inhaling deeply and quickly - almost like he was hyperventilating. Neither would realise in the heat of the moment how bad that actually was as he inhaled more and more pheromone, undoing all the work that his body had done in metabolising the pink, cloudy toxin.

And it was really starting to impact Niall too - combined with the scent of the potent Noivern cum, and the wonderfully taboo feeling of being covered with Pokémon cum, he was now unbelievably horny. His pants felt tight, so, so tight, and the blush across his face was more intense than it had ever been. He felt hot, despite the cave being quite cool and humid. It really started to get to him.

"Ngh... Fuck... I..." He grunted. Absent-mindedly, his hands went to his waist and unbuckled his belt. He had to alleviate the pressure against his dick, it was so uncomfortable, he felt like he couldn't focus on anything else! His shaking hands clasped the belt, undoing it, and then unzipped and unbuttoned his pants. He let them fall to the ground, and then yanked his briefs down, his cock bouncing out into the cool cavern air. "Ah. fuck..." He breathed a sigh of relief as his cock throbbed in the air.

Precum dripped from the tip as he let his pants and underpants fall - a potent wet patch had formed in his underwear, even soaking through to leave a damp spot at the front of his jeans. Combined with the cum staining his shirt, he'd have one awkward laundry session after this was all over.

"Noi?"

"Echo?"

Niall had a moment of lucidity as he saw Echo looking right at him, his nostrils flaring. His sensitive nose picked up the very strong, "horny human male" scent that was now emanating from Niall's crotch as he stood there with his cock out.

"H-Hey... E-Echo, I don't know what you're thinking b-but..." Niall stammered, seeing his Pokémon slowly approach. He got onto all fours and gently slinked towards his trainer, his tail swaying in a manner that could only be described as sensually. Niall instinctively backed up, until he felt the cool stone of a large stalactite against his bare butt cheeks, and he froze in place as Echo caught up to him, and slowly stood mere inches away from his trainer.

"Verrrrn..." He purred, looking at his trainer like one would a lover, his big Noivern eyes flicking up and down Niall's form. He liked what he saw, evidently, a blush peeking through the coloured fur of his face. He brought one of his claws up to Niall's face and gently stroked the side of his trainer's chin, collecting some of the cum that he had sprayed all over his trainer's face.

"Y-You... You made a bit of a mess, Echo..." Niall said carefully. Part of his mind was SCREAMING at him to end this now. Echo was calmed enough for now. They could leave! They could put this all behind them, before the haze worked its sordid trick once again.

But he didn't move. Well, he didn't move away but he DID move - his hand travelled up and gently caressed Echo's face, like Echo was doing to him. They were looking into each other's eyes, deeply studying each other. Niall's heart began to flutter, and Echo let out a soft, cute little trill from deep in his chest.

The moment lasted an eternity, as they both seemed to reflect on how much they each meant to each other. Echo remembered the day that he met Niall, in that lab when he was first becoming a trainer. He remembered how nervous he was, and remembered Niall's encouraging words in their very first battle against Sorbet. And he remembered how Niall was never at any point upset with him that he had lost the battle. He remembered every night together, when they'd share the same bed during cold nights; and every day together as master and Pokémon. No, as partners. Niall loved him, and he loved Niall. Maybe it wasn't romance in the traditional sense, but it was loving all the same.

And Niall thought about everything that Echo had done for him in their journey. He remembered receiving the Pokéball from the professor, and seeing the adorable Noibat inside. He remembered the cute, goofy, toothy grin that Echo had when he received his nickname. He remembered how Echo would always, always try his absolute hardest, in and out of battle, and how Echo would always do his best to be a friend. And he remembered the tight, warm hugs, the pair of wings enveloping him any time he felt the pressures of training get to him. Echo loved him, and he loved Echo. It didn't feel the same as it had felt with any girlfriends, or his family, but he knew it was love all the same.

And in that moment, it was something he wanted desperately to show Echo.

"I... I want to kiss you, Echo."

It's probably something he'd never have asked for if it weren't for these bizarre circumstances. But it just felt so natural as it came out of his mouth. He'd thought that the pheromones were controlling him, guiding him into giving into the most base instincts he had - to fuck anything in reach. And it probably had some kind of effect like that, being a hyper-potent aphrodisiac and all, but he didn't feel at all like he was being controlled at all. It felt like he was just realising something that he'd been feeling for years, a feeling he'd held deep inside that he'd never been able to explain. And maybe the pheromones were just allowing him to truly feel it for the first time.

He opened his mouth and pressed his head forward, slowly. Echo did the same, until Niall's lips were pressing against the Noivern's maw. He felt the warm breath of his Pokémon on his face - a feeling he was very familiar with, but in this context, it sent a shiver of anticipation down his spine. He pulled back half an inch, and pressed again, kissing his Pokémon over and over again. Echo wasn't as familiar with the idea of kissing, but eventually he got the idea and lavished his trainer all the same, his long tongue poking out and licking at his trainer's tongue periodically.

Cum on Niall's face dripped downwards, until it rolled down in between their mouths. The taste of the Noivern's seed mingling between both of their faces as they passionately kissed. The taste caused them to each open their eyes, the unexpected sensation grounding them both for a moment, causing them to break the kiss.

"Ah... Echo..." Niall moaned gently. "S-Sorry... I-I'll go and get a towel or so- HEY! AH!"

Echo pulled away as well, just for a moment. He must have been unsatisfied with the idea of Niall leaving even to get a towel. Because in an instant his maw opened and he began to lick his trainer with his long, wet tongue. It was like he was grooming his trainer, his tongue lathering Niall's face with saliva as he licked up the mess he'd made, collecting the cum on his tongue. "Come on, Echo! That tickles!" He giggled, gently trying to push the Noivern away.

Echo didn't let up for a moment though, not until he was satisfied that the cum had been cleaned up from his trainer's face. "Noiii-ooiii-oiii~" He trilled playfully as he lapped at his trainer. Finally, he seemed to stop, giving his trainer one more lick across the for good measure.

"Heh heh heh... Thanks buddy." He said, giving his Pokémon a warm, genuine smile. "As much as I'd love to keep going, I think we'd best try and find a way o-oooOHH! Echo!"

He was interrupted by the sudden sensation of something warm and wet against his dick. It was absolutely wonderful - so much so that the thought of leaving the cave seemed to evaporate in that moment. He looked down and saw that his Pokémon has slunk down onto his knees, and was lavishing his cock with his tongue. "Noi?" Echo seemed to ask for permission, as he looked up at his trainer, almost begging.

"A bit l-late to ah... to ask for that once you started, Ec..." He reached down and gently rubbed the pokemon's ears. "B-But if you wanna return the fav-aahh!"

That was all the encouragement that Echo needed before he eagerly opened his mouth and engulfed as much of Niall's cock as he could. Muzzles were much better suited to cock-sucking than the relatively flat faces that humans had. More mouth meant more room to suck dicks with, and so even though Niall wasn't by any means small, Echo managed to take pretty much the entirety of Niall's manhood into his mouth, rather comfortably.

"C-Careful about the teeth, bud..." Niall moaned as he felt a tongue swishing all over his cock, exploring him all over. The slightly salty, watery taste of his precum seemed to fill Echo's mouth as he gently started to bob his head. "Oh. OH! Echo! Aah! Careful!" That was what Niall exclaimed when he felt that tongue slip into his foreskin, licking all around the tip of his sensitive cock.

Echo let out what could only be described as a purr, emanating deep from within his chest, as he lovingly sucked and bobbed his head up and down his trainer's cock. He was enjoying himself, becoming familiar with his trainer's most sensitive area, which he had only rarely seen in his travels with Niall. He was normally quite private when it came to his privates, and Echo respected that, not wanting to make his trainer uncomfortable. This was all new, and he was loving every moment.

Niall was overwhelmed with pleasure, his cock twitching and throbbing inside of Echo's mouth. He was totally focussed on the feeling, gently holding Echo's head and stroking his fur lovingly as he let his Pokémon service his cock. Though a part of him was curious as to how he hadn't orgasmed yet, despite feeling more pleasure and stimulation than he'd felt... ever.

Neither of the pair would know, but that was a side effect of the Salazzle pheromones. It was a reason why Salazzle was such a threat out in the wilds. Making yourself orgasm is a good way to temporarily clear your head of the effects, so a way around this is for the pheromone to make it harder to orgasm - you had to really work to bring yourself from the lust-addled stupor. And so, even though it wasn't as pronounced of an effect on humans like Niall, it still worked, and left the trainer in an almost-unbearable limbo where he felt like he was about to bust at any moment. But that moment didn't seem to ever come for him.

"Ah... I... Hell's Bells... Echo... T-This is..." He could barely even complete a coherent thought as his mind was simply addled with the sensation, with the pleasure of being so thoroughly pleasured. His cock was twitching uncontrollably in Echo's maw, feeling the wet tongue explore every inch of his malehood.

That's when he started to feel something new. Something long was snaking up Niall's leg, gently curling and squeezing his calf, and then his thigh... And then his left buttock. Echo had a very naughty look on his face as he looked up at Niall's face, which was plastered with a needy, desperate expression.

"Ec-Echo... What are you doing?" Niall asked, looking at his Pokémon. He then looked down, and saw that Echo's whip-like tail had been reaching around, and had wrapped around his leg. "Y-Your tail... Echo, what are you doing?" He managed to groan between desperate, sharp breaths.

He didn't have to wait long to answer. Niall suddenly felt something slip between his butt cheeks, slipping up and down his ass crack. A brief moment of panic washed over Niall as he realised what his Pokémon was about to do.

"E-Echo! W-What are you d- AAH!" The tapered tip of the tail was a perfect tool to find its mark, and gently as could be, it pressed against Niall's anus until is easily slipped inside. It only went in about two inches deep, and didn't stretch him open very far at all, but the effect was immediate. "AH!! AH, OH FUCK, ECHO!! HOLY FUCK!!"

He could only take a few moments of the tail squirming inside of him before he grabbed Echo behind the ears and hilted inside of the horny, teasing Pokémon. Echo hadn't been expecting it, but he didn't stop his trainer from pulling him into his crotch, Niall's balls against Echo's chin, his cock barely brushing against the back of Echo's throat as his cock throbbed one last time before beginning to orgasm, shooting rope after rope of cum directly down the throat of his beloved Pokémon.

"Arceus, Echo!! It's so fucking good!" He practically screamed it out, his orgasmic cry echoing all around the cavern.

Unlike his trainer, Echo didn't pull away from the orgasm. Niall had been surprised by it, but Echo wanted it, he wanted to feel his trainer in the throes of pleasure, finally tipped overboard by the extra prostate pleasure thanks to his tail. Echo let it all in his throat, only pulling back a little bit so he could open his maw and allow the last few strands of cum to his male hood tongue.

Niall reached one hand to his cock and pumped it in time with his orgasm, so he could give Echo what he wanted, the last couple strands of cum landing on Echo's long, greedy tongue, the wonderful sensation of his foreskin rolling up and down his sensitive cock.

His orgasm subsided, and the last few drops dribbled out of his over-stimulated cock. Niall swallowed what had landed on his tongue and then gave the cock one last lick, getting the drops that weren't big enough for gravity to take them onto his tongue. Niall then stumbled backwards against the smooth rock of the stalactite and slid down, until he was sitting on the rock floor, the tail slipping from his asshole just before his cheeks were sitting against the cold, solid ground.

"You're... You're wonderful, Echo..." is all he could think to moan in that moment. He reached up to gently stroke Echo's snout, as the Pokémon got down onto Niall's lap, nuzzling into him, embracing his trainer. "Who would have thought... that we'd be doing this, huh?" He reached up and wiped his face with the shoulder of his shirt, one of the only places that wasn't hit with the blasts of cum from his Pokémon.

"Verrrrnnn..." A low, trill came from the throat chest of the Noivern. He reached his head up and nuzzled it under the chin of the trainer.

The pair had effectively exhausted themselves, fucking like maniacs, exacerbated by the pheromones in the air. Though, they both seemed to be clear-headed for the moment, their orgasms having helped metabolise the pheromones that they had breathed in.

"We did it, buddy..." Niall said, smiling warmly, giving Echo a little scritch behind his large, sensitive ears. "I can't believe we did it..."

"N-NOI?!"

"Not like that, you goof!" Niall laughed. "I meant about the Salazzle! Heck, we don't even have to evolve her! We can... we can just start training her, and get her ready to battle Sorbet!"

"Noi!" Echo nodded, and nuzzled into his trainer again. He was showing enthusiasm, but he was too exhausted by the fervent oral that they'd just given each other.

The enthusiasm about having completed their mission was short-lived though, as they both stayed quiet for a moment, letting the gravity of the situation really sink down on top of them both. Trainers don't usually fuck their Pokémon, or suck their cocks. He had hoped that when the effect of the pheromones wore out, that it might erase the memories of what had happened - like waking up with a hangover the night after you did a bunch of embarrassing stuff. But it didn't work that way here.

The sensations were still vivid in his mind. The wet, velvety feeling of his pokemon's mouth around his cock, the warm breaths against his crotch when Echo deep-throated him... What made him blush the most though was recalling how that tail in his asshole made him cum harder than he'd ever done before. He was hoping that it was just an effect of the pheromones, but the more time passed, the less he seemed to believe that...

Worryingly, his cock seemed to start hardening up again as he was replaying the experience in his head, over and over. Feeling his Pokémon laying across his bare lap didn't help much either...

"A-Anyway! H-How about we get out of here?" Niall suggested, sounding more than a little panicky. He gently shoved his Pokémon forward, and Echo took the hint, getting back up off of his trainer, taking a couple steps to yawn and stretch his wings out. 

Niall stood up and collected his pants and underwear, putting them back on. Though, before he said anything, he realised that his shirt was still damp and sticky, with the amount of Noivern cum leaking into it. "I hope the sun has eased off out there..." He mumbled to himself as he hesitantly pulled the shirt off of his body, leaving him bare-chested in the cool air of the cave. It was a little more comfortable to say the least - it's never too comfortable to have to wear wet, sticky clothing.

And then he lifted the shirt to his face, and quickly sniffed it. 

His cock twitched at the deep scent, before he opened his eyes wide and yanked the shirt away, embarrassed that he would be so absent-minded to do that. Though, Echo had been watching the entire time, and had a confused look on his face.

"Noi?" He queried, cocking his head to the side. He was facing his trainer now, and his cock was still pretty prominently poking out of his sheath.

"I-I was... just seeing how... much I'd need to like... wash it, back at the Pokémon centre..." He lied. Well, it was kind of true - the shirt was pretty obviously rank with the deep, powerful scent of Pokémon cum. He'd never forget that scent for as long as he lived, after his nostrils were flooded with the stuff. He could still taste it too, at the back of his throat. "A-Anyway, you're not gonna get all shy around me without a shirt, are you? After... you know... all that..."

"Noi..." Echo nodded his head, blushing a bit.

He walked up to his backpack, which was sitting nearby, and picked up the remains of the bottle of Full Heal that had smashed on the ground. "I still have no idea if this stuff works with Salazzle... stuff. Pheromones and stuff like that..." Echo just shrugged his wings, he didn't really know. "Let's make sure we only use her in battles that happen outdoors, huh?" He chuckled after saying this.

"Noi-hoi-hoi..." Echo laughed as well, though a lot more nervously. He looked around, and the room still had a decidedly pink tinge floating through the air. And... his erection still wasn't going away.

Niall was a responsible trainer and picked up as many bits of the Full Heal bottle as he could, putting them in a little baggie, and back into his backpack, to be disposed of later. "And look at all this stuff too, damn it, can you help me pick this shit up?" He asked of Echo, seeing the bunch of items strewn across the floor after he'd tossed his bag to the side earlier.

Echo nodded, and they both started picking up the things that had all fallen out - Pokéballs, potions, a few evolutionary stones. Niall cringed when he saw that he had accidentally cracked the Fire Stone, "It must have hit the ground... I didn't realise it was so fragile!" He commented, holding it up to Echo. The Noivern sniffed at the stone, before losing interest and going back to picking up items. "I hope this thing still works though... I hope the like... evolution juice or whatever doesn't escape if it's cracked..."

Echo wasn't really listening by this point. He was beginning to feel funny again, and was trying his best to ignore the rapidly-building need that was building once again. His cock had gotten about halfway back into his sheath, when all of a sudden, it started to poke back out again. They were still in the thick of the pheromones. It wasn't as concentrated in the air as it had been before, and their orgasms had allowed their bodies to metabolise enough of the stuff that they had breathed in... But it was still hanging in the air, and they were still immersed in that very same air...

And being a Pokémon, it was really sneaking up on Echo rather quickly.

"Wait, fuck! Where is it?!" Niall suddenly shouts, snapping Echo from his momentary stupor. He turns and sees his trainer on his hands and knees, looking around desperately. "Fuck! The ball! The one with the Salazzle! It's fucking gone!" He cried out, frustrated.

"V-Vern!"

"I know buddy... Help me look for it, okay? It can't have gotten far, it's gotta be around here somewhere..."

This entire experience was really like a cascade of unfortunate occurrences. First it was encountering a Pokémon which was much more powerful than they had intended to fight, and then they were hit with the pheromones. And, they didn't even get a chance to try out what may have been the only way to cure the effects when the bottle smashed. And now, the ball had gone missing - they just had to leave the cavern. Just, out the entrance - heck, even out of the pheromone-ridden main chamber would be enough. But they had to find the ball containing the Salazzle.

"Son of a bitch... where are you, you little son of a bitch?..." Niall muttered to himself as he scoured the floor, looking in all the little nooks and crannies that were big enough for a Pokéball to fit inside. Echo was helping to look as well, though he kept finding himself getting distracted by thoughts of his trainer once again.

Echo was desperately looking, and trying to keep a cool head. The sooner they found the Salazzle, the sooner they can leave... maybe they'd get out before it was too late...

"Here it is!" Echo turned around and saw his trainer on the ground, on all fours, his chest low to the ground, as his hand reached down into a small hole under a couple of stalagmites. The crack of his ass was poking out the top of Niall's pants, which were stretching to show off the curvature of his butt. Echo swallowed nervously as Niall swayed his butt from side to side, grunting as he tried to reach the Luxury Ball inside the hole. "Come on... Nearly got it... come on you f- GOT IT!"

He remained on his hands and knees as he inspected the Luxury Ball, making sure it wasn't damaged at all from the little journey it took. "Seems to be okay... No cracks..." He reached over to his backpack and put the ball back inside of it once more. "I hope it's not a bad omen that, even after we caught her, we're still having proble-"

His words were choked up in his throat as he craned his neck to look at his Pokémon, and was surprised with Echo standing over him, his throbbing Noivern cock only a few inches away from his butt. "Verrrrrn...." He whined, looking needily at his trainer again.

"Ec..." His trainer looked up at Echo's big, needy eyes. Niall saw the apologetic expression on Echo's face, before looking down and seeing the throbbing erection once again. And then he realised the compromising position he was in, his butt pointing right at his Pokémon, who was horny once again.

Echo stepped closer, and then slipped his claws gently underneath the waistband of Niall's pants, and gently tugged them downwards, along with his trainer's underwear. Niall's ass was slowly revealed, while Echo looked down at his trainer with drool leaking from the corner of his mouth.

"Echo, stop..." Niall instructed, softly.

"Noiiii..." Echo whined, but even though he was needy and horny, he did just that. His obedience and care for his trainer wouldn't be obfuscated by his lust for him, no matter how much he felt he needed it at that moment. Niall turned his body around, so he was totally facing his Pokémon again, on his knees on the ground of the cavern.

This was a new frontier for Niall. Using his hands is one thing - breeders do that all the time anyway, so it's not really that big of a deal. And Oral is another thing - and hey, it worked, right? But the thoughts running through Niall's mind at that time were much further down the Buneary-Hole than that. He was tossing up in his mind, if he should let his Pokémon mount him.

He'd never done anal before, not even with another lady trainer. But a part of his mind was aching for it; to pull his pants and boxers down and let Echo fuck him. He was curious to know how it felt, and though he wouldn't admit it to himself, he liked how submissive he felt when Echo was fucking his face earlier. And, he knew that he could trust Echo, he would listen to him, so he could always tell his Pokémon to stop.

But was different to last time - Echo still seemed to be lucid right now, and though the pheromones were clearly affecting his Pokémon, he decided to just be blunt...

"Echo... A-Are you still with me?"

Echo nodded slowly, then a bit more urgently, to show that he was still present - mentally, anyway.

Niall inhaled slowly, hesitating before he spoke up again. "Okay... Echo, d-do you want..." He stopped, the gravity of what he was about to say hit him like a ton of bricks. But he persisted. "If... If you wanted... Do you want to... fuck me?"

"V-Vern?" He didn't seem to understand right away.

"Y-You know... Do you wanna like... mount me? A-And mate me?"

Noivern didn't answer. Though, this time, he seemed to get it. He stepped a little closer to his trainer...

"I-I mean... J-Just to like... help you, be-because of how you're feeling ag- MMMPH!"

He was interrupted when Echo suddenly opened his maw and pressed a deep, passionate kiss on his trainer, his tongue slipping into Niall's lips and eagerly licking all around the insides of his warm, human mouth.

It took a few moments for Niall to respond accordingly, taken surprise by the sudden kiss. Even though he had already kissed his Pokémon a few minutes ago, it shocked him, just how much Echo seemed to be into it. He even felt the pokemon's tongue tickling the back of his throat, as it wormed around his mouth. He even started to gently suckle on the tongue at one point, eliciting a very satisfied, low rumble from Echo...

The kiss didn't last for long. Echo was too excited by Niall's offer, and his tongue slowly eased out of his trainer's mouth, leaving a string of wonderful saliva connecting their mouths, until Niall reached up and wiped his face, swallowing down the drool that remained in his mouth. "Ah... Fuck... I love you, man... Come on, do it to me before I change my mind..." Niall moaned.

Echo nodded and licked Niall's face, before taking a few steps back. With a chirr in his voice, his claws gripped the trainer's pants and underwear again, only this time to be joined by Niall's own hands. Together, they pulled Niall's clothes down, Niall's butt and asshole revealing first, and then his balls, and then his erection bounced out, flecking a bit of precum up and onto Echo's belly. Niall let go of the garments, and his Pokémon tugged them all the rest of the way down, and reached forward to pull them free of his trainer's feet, leaving Niall in just his shirt, shoes and socks, totally bottomless. His human erection standing proudly in front of him, twitching in time with his heartbeat.

Niall was REALLY feeling the pheromones now... or maybe he was just that horny for his Pokémon! "Fuck... Oh Mew, Ec... I need it so badly!" He moaned. He turned and walked on his knees, until he was against one of the stalagmites, thinking he might need something to lean on. He pressed his shoulder against the stalagmite, wrapping one arm around it and holding it tight, as he reached his other hand back and grabbed one of his ass-cheeks, spreading it for his Pokémon.

"Verrrrrn...." A low, deep trill escaped the pokemon's throat as he approached his trainer. His foreign erection twitched desperately as he came up behind his master, slowly crawling until his muzzle was against Niall's ass. He sniffed for a bit, getting his master's scent burned into his brain, and then he clambered up and mounted his trainer, that slick cock pressing against Niall's asshole.

"Oh fuck... Oh fuck, Ec..." Niall grunts, feeling the cock pressing against his virgin ass... It presses and presses... and then it suddenly slips forward, hotdogging the trainer as the pokemon's hips suddenly slam into Niall's ass. "UNF... T-Try again, Echo..." He commanded, bending over a bit more.

"N-Noi..." Echo nodded, and lined up to try again... But like last time, the cock just slipped forward, not really pleasing anyone. The Pokémon got a little frustrated as it happened a third time, but just before he tried again to fuck his desperate, needy master, he decided to try something different.

"Echo? W-What's going on?" Niall asked, looking back to watch his Pokémon clamber off his body. Echo gets off and backs up a little bit, putting his maw at his master's ass once again.

"Verrrrrn..." That low trill emanates from his throat once more as he opens his mouth, letting his long, pink tongue hang low. Then, he pressed it to his master's asshole and started licking there...

"G-GAH!! Echo! A-Are you licking me?!" He cried out. The answer was obviously yes, but he did not seem to mind at all. He thought it was definitely a strange sensation but after the initial shock, and likely made even better with his lungs full of Salazzle pheromones, it started to feel wonderful. Slick and warm, and pulsing against his ass, as Echo lathered his master's behind with his saliva. The Pokémon wanted to lube his master up, and it felt wonderful. "OH FUCK... Echo, don't stop, please!"

Like the obedient Pokémon he was, he did NOT stop. He licked and licked, lathering the ass with saliva... Though, after about a minute, he pulled the tongue back and pressed the tip against his trainer's asshole. It wasn't as tapered as his cock was, but it was wetter, and more importantly, he could wriggle it.

It was the wriggling that helped to finally break the Numel's back. Niall was enjoying the sensation more and more, until finally he felt his asshole relax enough that the tip of the tongue finally slipped inside. "NGH! Oh shit... it-it's in! I can feel it inside me, Echo!"

Niall's asshole was gently and slowly stretched by the tongue wriggling around back there. Echo pushed it in deeper and deeper, using his tongue to both pleasure his trainer's surprisingly sensitive booty, and also to slather it up with saliva for when the real fun would begin. The pokemon's cock twitched and throbbed needily, he needed to do this, and as soon as Niall gave the okay for him to try again, he'd climb up and fuck his trainer.

"Ah... Ah... Oh fuck..." Niall was panting, his chest heaving against the stalagmite as he held onto it for dear life. The tongue was only a few inches deep, but to someone who'd never taken anything up his ass - not even one of his own fingers - it felt like it was all the way inside his belly. And, to his surprise, he loved it. And then finally...

"O-Okay... I... I think I'm ready..." His trainer panted. Echo's tongue slowly drew back, out of his trainer's ass, until it was back inside his mouth again.

"Noi?" He took a step back and looked at his trainer, his asshole twitching madly, gaping slightly, and dripping saliva from his backside. It seemed to shine in the ambient light of the dark cavern.

"Echo... Fuck me."

Echo did not need any more encouragement than that. In a flash, he flapped his wings to jump up onto his trainer, mounting him like he had sone so previously, and wrapped his wings around his trainer. It felt so intimate like this, Niall even realising just how big Echo could make himself. "Noi... Verrrrrrrn...."

Echo's cock pressed against his trainer's butt cheek. A few moments hater and it more accurately found his trainer's asshole and it pressed in. "E-Echo... It's g-going inside!" Niall cried out. On the first attempt, the Noivern cock penetrated the human's asshole, slipping slowly inside. "D-Don't stop! Don't stop please, I want you to fill me!" He grunted as the throbbing Pokémon erection pressed further and further in.

After a few inches, it reached the depth that Echo had licked to, but that wasn't even half the pokemon's length. The ridged, tapered cock sank deeper and deeper inside, wonderfully opening up Niall's insides. "Shit... Oh it's so much, Ec... Keep go-AAH!"

Niall's moans were interrupted as he felt his pokemon's jaw suddenly clamp onto his shoulder, giving his trainer a love bite. Not enough to draw blood, but anyone who sees his bare shoulder might have some questions after this. Echo growls lustfully against his trainer's shoulder, treating him to something that a lady Noivern (or perhaps gentleman Noivern) could expect to enjoy as a part of their mating habits.

And yet, there was a gentleness to Echo's penetration as well. He doesn't want to hurt his trainer- no, his best friend. He wants Niall to be able to enjoy it as much as possible, so very slowly he pushes further and further in, to see just how deep he can go, and to help Niall get adjusted enough to his length, slowly stretching Niall's insides to comfortably accommodate the Pokémon cock getting buried inside of him.

Niall is gritting his teeth, wincing as the cock sinks in. It's not without its pain, but it feels wonderful regardless. "Echo... O-Okay... I... I think that's as much as I can take..." He whimpers needily. He glances back, but can't see with his Pokémon mounting him, but he has nearly three quarters of Echo's cock inside his ass.

"V-Vern?" Echo seemed concerned, asking if he might be too deep in.

"No... No, it feels so fucking good, Echo..." He pants and braces himself against the stalagmite, gently grinding himself against Echo's cock. "Fuck me, Echo. I want you to f-AAAAHHH!!!"

Interrupted once again, Echo didn't want to wait to begin rutting his trainer. He draws his cock back, and presses it back in. He starts slowly, for a few thrusts just gently pushing in and out while he enjoys the sharp hisses and gentle moans coming from his trainer. Gently building up a nice and gentle pace...

But that wasn't what either of them wanted. They were just being slow and careful because they didn't want to hurt each other - which is admirable, but the pheromones floating in the air meant that they didn't want to make love. They wanted to mate. They wanted to fuck. And hard.

"Noi... Noi... Noi..." The Pokémon was chanting rhythmically as he started to fuck his trainer with a little more urgency, the cock even slowly getting deeper and deeper as Niall was able to accommodate more and more of the cock. But despite the pheromones, Echo wouldn't allow himself to be irresponsible with his virgin-assed trainer. Unless Niall wanted him to, of course!

And he did!

"Ec... Echo... Fuck me..." He panted, feeling the cool rock of the stalagmite against his chest. "Come on, fuck me... r-really fuck me..."

"V-Vern?"

"Yes... Come on, give it to me, Echo... F-Fuck me like a Lady-Noivern~"

That was all the encouragement that Echo needed. His winged arms wrapped tighter around his trainer, engulfing the pair underneath the shroud of the large, draconic wings. His claws gripped tighter, and his maw clamped around Niall's other shoulder, biting him once again, a little harder. But more importantly, he positioned himself above his trainer, wrapped his long tail around Niall's thigh, and started to really fuck him.

Much harder than the last time too. Niall had asked for a proper Noivern-rutting, and that was what Echo was giving him. The cock was as deep as it could go now, and the pokemon's crotch impacted his trainer's ass with each thrust, his damp, patted fur wetly slapping against his trainer's toned, saliva-slicked ass.

"Echo... Echo... s-so much... S-So good..." Niall's voice was raspy and difficult to hear between the thrusts. But the fucking felt absolutely incredible - especially heightened with the pheromones. He couldn't think of anything else, just how much it fucking ruled having a Pokémon fuck his ass, giving his overly-sensitive prostate a thorough pounding. His erect, human cock bounced up and down, flecking precum on the ground and even up and onto his belly!

His ass instinctively clamped and squeezed all around the pokemon's cock as it fucked him. It was bliss, nothing but lust pumping through his mind, as cock pumped through his ass. He could spend the rest of time in that state and not complain. And Echo felt the same way. 

They were in sync, like when they were battling the Salazzle together, a battle that they shouldn't have won - but because of their strong bond, they prevailed. They had ultimate trust in each other. Niall knew that Echo wouldn't hurt him, and Echo knew that Niall would do anything for him.

Love. Maybe not in the traditional sense, but love all the same.

"I'm gonna cum... Fuck, Echo, I'm gonna cum!"

"N-Noi...Noi-Noivern..."

"Don't stop... Don't pull out... Fuck, I'm coming... Breed my ass, Echo!!"

"V-VERN!! NOIVERN!!"

Niall was the first to break. His prostate and swinging cock both had been overloaded with stimulation and pleasure, and he started to cum. More watery than last time for sure, but his orgasm sprayed out in front of him, all over the ground and onto the stalagmite that he was desperately clinging to. "OH FUCK, OH FUCK FUCK FUCK!! ECHO! ECHO I L- MMMMPPHH!!!"

The trainer's cries were suddenly muffled - Echo's tail unwrapped from Niall's leg while the trainer was in the middle of his orgasm, and in a flash, it reached around - the pokemon's tail filling his trainer's mouth!

"Mmmph! Nggtgghhh!!" His orgasm was heightened by the depraved sensation of being filled from both ends, and just as he started to come down, he'd be filled with even more of his partner.

One final slam inside and he'd feel a warm wetness begin to spread all through his belly. Strands of Noivern cum started to flood his insides, his Pokémon cumming as his jaw let go of Niall's shoulder. He opened his mouth and screeched loudly in the throes of his own orgasm, filling Niall's asshole with virile, wonderful Pokémon cum.

His saliva lathers the pokemon's tail as he's pumped full. His own cock finally slows its twitching as he comes back down from his orgasmic high, his body having metabolised much of the pheromones running through.

"Vern... Vern... N-Noi..." The Pokémon is panting, also coming down from a powerful climax. He shakes his head and gently unwraps his wings from around his trainer.

"I... That felt... That was incredible, Echo..." Niall stammered. "Man, my head is swimming... How are you doing, buddy?"

A gentle lick to his neck from behind gave him the answer.

"Hahaha! Come on quit it, you big doofus!" He laughed. Normally, after a lick like that he'd be wanting to wipe himself clean of Echo's saliva, but that felt silly now. "Come on... You're not as light as you think pal, off you get!"

Echo flapped his wings a few times, and his cock slipped free of his trainer's asshole. Immediately, there was a wet slurping sound as the cock came free, and a rush of poke-cum spilled out and onto the ground with a lewd, wet splatter. Niall blushed, feeling a little embarrassed by the sensation, and he waited for it to come to a gradual stop before he managed to turn himself over, squatting with his back against the stalagmite. He looked down at his pokemon's cock, slick with cum and other fluids, and watched his Pokémon shake his head, coming down from the effects of the pheromones. Seems like cumming is the way to metabolise it quickly.

But they weren't out of the woods yet. Both of them had a look on their face like they wanted to go again - or at least clean each other off... But the pink pheromones were still swirling perilously around them both, and they both looked at each other.

"We'd better get out of here." Niall said.

"Vern?" Echo gestured with his claw to the Salazzle's Luxury Ball sitting on the ground.

Niall picked it up, and his backpack, and immediately stood up. "Don't worry. I've got it this time." He says, giving his Pokémon a smile. He stands up, his legs shaky and his knees weak, and he approaches his Pokémon, giving Echo a loving rub between his dinnerplate ears. "Come on. Help me find my pants, and we'll get out of here.

He picked up his underwear and put them on again, before putting his pants on as well. A few moments later and they were both ready to leave, just as the pheromones started to swirl around their heads again. "Come on, before you're the one bending over for ME!" Niall chuckled as they made their way back to the entrance to the cavern. Already they could feel the fresh outside air filling their lungs, as they found themselves back in the Stony Wilderness once more.

Though it looked different than before - the sun had set! How long had they been in there, fucking? "Hell's Bells, those pheromones are wicked, aren't they?"

Echo came up behind his trainer and rested his head on his trainer's arm, absolutely exhausted. "Verrrrrrn..." He purred.

"You and me both, bud." He says, patting his pokemon's head once again.

The two stood quietly together in the shade of a large cliff, as the cool outside air swirled around them.

"Hey... Hey, do you think..." Niall started, his voice careful. "If we found a female Salandit out here, instead of stumbling across the Salazzle in the cave..."

"Noi?"

"Do you think we still ever would have..." He paused as he tried to find the words. "Mated like that?"

The Noivern didn't answer. He didn't know how to. He started feeling pangs of guilt, he really mated his own trainer in there! It seemed like such a taboo, even to the Pokémon!

"Hey, hey... It's okay!" Niall recognised the antsy look on his Pokémon’s face. "You wanna know what I think?"

"Vern?" His Pokémon 

"I think I'm glad..." He blushed and looked away a little nervously as he spoke. "I mean, not just because we found an even stronger Pokémon than the one we'd been looking for but..."

"N-Noi?"

"I... I really enjoyed that. Having sex with you, Echo."

"Verrrn..." His Pokémon gave a loving trill and nuzzled his head against his trainer's chest.

"Hahaha! I'm glad you liked it too, bud!" His hands gripped his pokemon's muzzle and he gave him some well-deserved scritches. "Would you... wanna do that stuff with me later?"

The rearing up and flurry of licks to his trainer's face answered that question right away.

"Hahaha! Get off me, you goofball! I wanna do it more, too." He says, stroking his pokemon's fur, more tenderly than he realised he was doing. "Not right now though, we gotta get some rest after all that!"

The Pokémon nodded affirmatively.

A few moments pass, and the trainer decides to open his backpack and pull out the Luxury Ball once again, looking it over once again. "I can't believe we actually did it though..."

"Noi..." Echo seemed equally enamoured by the Ball.

The evening sun glinted off of the Luxury Ball as Niall inspected it. He turned to look at his Pokémon with a goofy, confident grin plastered over his face. "You know what happens next, right?" He asked excitedly, stroking the Noivern's muzzle.

"Vern!" Echo chirped, excitedly.

He looked at the ball once again, with a confident smirk spreading over his face. "That's right. That damned fox is toast..."

"Noi!"

He puts the ball back into the pack and slings it back over his shoulder, pausing for a few moments before giving his Pokémon a rather sheepish look.

"...But I think we should go get cleaned up."

"Vern?" Echo cocked his head to the side curiously.

The trainer stammered a bit. "B-Because... I can feel your cum leaking into my underwear."

**********

Echo had done well, managing to take out TWO of Holly's Pokémon before that damned Alolan Vulpix came out to play again. Though, this time there was a marked boost to their morale, even though Echo just got taken out with an Ice Beam attack, a direct hit, right to the belly.

They were both down to their last Pokémon, and were having such an incredible battle. Niall was super-charged, and his renewed enthusiasm had invigorated Holly's spirit as well!

"Looks like that winning streak of yours has finally run out, Holly!" Niall shouted from across the battlefield. "Sorbet is good, but you haven't seen anything, yet!" He sounded immensely confident as he recalled a spent, shivering Echo back to his Pokéball.

"Trying something new, huh Niall?" Holly said, smiling confidently at her end. Sorbet was by her side, a little battered, but still standing confidently by her side. Echo had managed to get a good number of hits in this time, before an ice beam took him out of the battle. "Normally Echo is the last one you send out!"

It had been a month since he'd caught Layla the Salazzle. And things had gotten... interesting (to say the very least) for his team since that day, but now it all came down to this. That stupid, goofy Ninetales was going down... There was absolutely no way that she'd be able to counter this.

He held aloft the Pokéball, taking the time to do a cocky pose for extra showmanship, and then called her out. "Go, Layla!" The ball opened and in a flash of red light, the Salazzle burst forth, her markings emanating a threatening, pink glow. Rosy smoke billowed slowly from her nostrils as she gave a very sly glance to her trainer.

"Wow! A Salazzle! Niall, you're full of surprises, aren't you!" Holly exclaimed! Sounding genuinely impressed that he'd manage to catch and train one of the most notoriously difficult Pokémon to catch in the region.

"We've spent weeks training! Building our bond, becoming closer as partners! Layla is my Ace in the hole, Holly! And now, she'll give-"

"Sorbet, use Psyshock!" Holly suddenly commanded, interrupting Niall's cocky monologue.

"-you a real- ...W-What?!"

Layla could only look back at her trainer with a very resigned expression, just before a purple bolt of psychic energy hit the Poison-Type at full power.


The End!
