Want to battle at the TL? --Not a whale
The text message was sent as he was already waiting in the lobby, basically spending some free time away from any routes, any cities with Gyms to chill with some of the cool Pokemon he had around. Some guy just gave it to him after some weird, bizarre internet trade that was much too complicated to understand. A Plusle and Minun scampered around his feet in constant circles, sparks appearing from their cheeks as they squeaked in rough playfulness. <Hey, hey hey hey. We agreed before that you wouldn't be so rough.> The Plusle pointed out, skidding to a stop and holding a red paw to the Minun's head, stopping DONALDO THE WARRIOR in his place.
The Minun stared at the Plusle in annoyance at the contact, smacking his paw away as he rubbed his head, trying to rid himself of the Plusle's touch. How gross, seriously. <I'm not being rough, you're just...> He hesitated for a second, but coughed and decided to say it. <A wimp.> Yep, he went there. The Plusle looked offended for a second, before crossing his arms and rolling his eyes, attempting to be mature about this.
Susumu took a seat in one of the cushiony chairs, leaning away from the back as he watched the two Pokemon interact in amusement. Apparently they were supposed to be good in double battles, and he wanted to take a look for himself to see how good they were. For now, all they really seemed to do was fight each other like little kids.

When he got the reply on his phone he couldn't help but grin a little at the girl's signature; Grass Ninja, huh? He didn't think of her as much of a ninja due to appearances, but it was fairly funny to think about. The two electric Pokemon were going at it when Maria came into view, wearing this pretty sundress that didn't seem to fit the weather they were currently having, but it was pretty warm indoors, so she probably wasn't that cold. "You fit the image of a 'Grass Ninja', no one would ever suspect you." He joked, standing up to greet her so he wasn't such a lazy bum sitting down. He didn't think she'd be here so quickly, honestly, so he assumed that she must've been in the area.
She made a comment about the two little rascals that he had ready to beat the crap out of each other, and he couldn't help but chuckle. "Oh yeah, not a handful at all. They have too much energy, so they could use the battle." Seriously, though his starter was worse. Much much worse. The Plusle looked up with him with a defiant look, as if he was offended at being called a trouble maker.
<What? It's true you know. Stop acting like a goodie two-shoes when you aren't.> The Minun commented, scratching behind his right ear as if he was a cat. His tail twitched when he felt the Plusle's judgmental gaze settle on him, but he pretended to ignore his much more mature counterpart.

Maria stuck her tongue out at her mentor. He just had to comment about her signature name huh? Well it figured that he would make fun of her. "You're the one whose signature is "Not a Whale" for petes sake." Pulling out another Pokeball she released both Corbin and Hibiki from their confines. She didn't have any sort of advantage here so she would have to be careful battling. Last time she'd lost miserably to Susumu so today she was going to show him that she could do better.
( It's battle time battle time battle time! ) Corbin the drifloon called out happily. Then again, she was happy no matter what the case. Wiggling back and forth in the air Maria giggled. Hibiki was already on the scene, hanging out in her bag. The Bellsprout popped his head out and waved to Susumu, just because he was training to be an assassin didn't mean he couldn't be nice to Maria's friends. Crawling out of the bag he landed on the floor, skinny legs walking towards the field. "Let's see if we can't get some of that energy out, okay guys?"

Amused at Maria's childish defenses to his comments, he kept the grin clear on his face as he was literally unfazed at her comments. "But I'm NOT a whale." He said with a snicker, not claiming to be a whale at all. People were calling him 'whale boy' though, which was starting to stick. The horror! A nickname for a nickname that shouldn't have existed in the first place. He hardly had water types around anyways, so it was funny how it ended up like that. God, what would he even do if he ever encountered a whale? Imagine all of the jokes floating around if he ever ended up using it in a battle. Definitely not allowed. Pokémon were being released now, and he realized that this battle was probably going to happen right now. Ross and Donaldo perked up at the new figures, looking curiously at both of them while wondering what they were like. Ross was a bit worried, while Donaldo was much more enthusiastic about it.
"Ha, training a Bellsprout." He commented with interest, though he happened to have a Drifloon too that he used, but not on his main team. He returned the wave, curious as to how she trained hers to battle. "Mine finally evolved into a Weepinbell. So glad." He grinned, even having a Leaf Stone in order to evolve her to her final stage. He wasn't going to even attempt that until she learned a very specific move though, since he hated battling Pokémon with fucking DAMP as an ability. <Ha! The way she says that implies we're gonna break a sweat.> Donaldo, the Minun, taunted as he took a few steps in front of Ross. The Minun was completely ready for what they could dish out, not that he was underestimating them, but he was confident. Plus and Minus activated, cheeks glowing with blue electricity as they powered each other up for the match. Shame it only helped out with special attacks, and neither of them knew any, but that was fine. They felt cool.
"Donaldo, take it easy. Let Ross go first. Help him out with Helping Hand." Susumu advised, knowing that Ross was the stronger of the two. Donaldo held his tongue and looked regretfully at the Plusle, who strut off in front of him instead. That cocky sonuva...<Right!> Ross grinned, feeling good about the plan himself really. Donaldo was his second in command, and shouldn't have to be the lead role in this match. The Minun liked cheering for others anyways, so he made some punches in the air, sparks flying like fireworks to work up Ross. It did. He was suddenly charging after the Bellsprout with a boosted Spark, and even if it wouldn't be very effective, the Helping Hand would've made some kind of difference.

"After all you ate at Thanksgiving I'm not surprised they aren't calling you the Wailord King. But anyways this is battle time!" As usual his Pokémon started strong. Neither of her Pokémon were partnered up like his, a Plusle and Minun group. They would still have a chance at winning though, they had to. It seemed as though Hibiki would be the first to get hit, the Spark attack not really doing too much damage.
< Alright! Fear my assassination leaves! > First off Hibiki used Sunny Day, raising his speed up for a few turns. That and if he needed to use Synthesis it would work a little better. His leaves quivered as he sent a Vine Whip attack at the Plusle, hoping to do some damage.
Corbin nervously used Minimize before she got hit. Yeah she had been excited about the battle but that didn't mean she wanted to get hit by anything too hard. Nervously she floated around the field, unable to really help herself. (Now let's have a good clean battle guys!) The purple balloon looked at the Minun and then opened her mouth wide, shouting an Astonish attack it's way.

Ross saw with a grimace that even with the Encore, the Spark hadn't done as much as it could've against the Bellsprout. He hopped backwards with concern at the thought that he might be outmatched if his strongest attack wasn't doing anything. The Plusle glanced over at Donaldo to see him looked a bit concerned as well, wondering how they were going to deal with the Bellsprout. It seemed so confident in how it battled, which gave them the idea that it was a higher leveled foe. "Hahaha, I ate like a champ. They could've even crowned me." Susumu played along, ignoring the 'fat' jabs she was making at him. He was a hungry guy, gosh! He figured that he ate as much as the next guy when it came to that dinner.
< Assassination leaves? What kind of battle is this?> Ross asked Maria with a squeak before getting hit by the Vine Whip. The Bellsprout was fast now, and with the sun to boost his speed and power so easily, Susumu knew exactly what she was going for. She had a sunny day set with her Bellsprout. Funny, since he went for rain on his own. <Good clean assassination, sure. Let's do it.> Donaldo said somewhat bitterly after watching Ross get hit, then turned slowly to see the most frightening ghost right in front of him! ACK! Get it away! He was smacked by the Astonish, but he retaliated with a frightened Thunder Wave at the ghost. Maybe the bright light would scare it off?
"Switch it up you guys! Quick Attack and Spark." And by switch, he meant opponents. Ross let out a growl at both of his foes, trying to cover Donaldo a little as the Minun staggered back up, looking weary. The Minun went with a Quick Attack towards the Bellsprout, trying to match him speed wise while Ross was left with the Drifloon. Maybe his best attack would have more luck on ghosts! <Switching it up!> Ross said with an accepting nod, sparks dancing from his cheeks as he raced towards the Drifloon with a Spark attack prepared.

Maria watched as the battle started in earnest, the Pokemon actually starting to give it their all rather than just messing around. Hibiki fell backwards as the Quick Attack hit him, landing flat on his weedy ass. He grunted as he stood up, his leaves waving in anger. This battle was almost as bad as the last one he had been in when Maria put him and Rayle up against Raff's sneasle and Sewaddle. Was she determined to make him lose or something? No, he knew what she was doing, by putting him in difficult situations for him to overcome. Still, he shook his leaves violently at the Plusle and a purple powder was released from them, his PoisonPowder attack flew at the electric type while his Vine Whip attack followed.
Corbin sort of drifted out of the way, the Thunder Wave attack passing by her. Her evasion was high enough that she didn't have too much trouble doing it. The purple balloon was only battling because her trainer wanted to use her in a gym battle against some normal types. Seemed legit to her anyways. The Spark attack however, hit her pretty hard. The super effective attack caused her to loose some of her already minuscule confidence as she floated a little closer to the ground, still she couldn't give up, she'd do the best she could. Once more she shouted an Astonish attack at the Minun.

Now that the first turn was completely over, both sides had stopped fooling around to get more serious. More complicated and interesting with their attacks. Ross was the first to feel the hit as the Poison Powder sank onto his skin and make him sneeze non-stop, leaving him vulnerable to Hibiki's multiple lashes. That Bellsprout was something to worry about for sure, the mouse knew he had to be careful as he coughed and started to show the familiar poisoned coloration. "Damn." Susumu said quietly as he stared at the battle, realizing the position Ross was in the moment he became poisoned. It could've been worse though, like Toxic or something, but taking damage every turn was never a good thing in his eyes. Corbin also managed to frighten Donaldo, who jumped backwards after being slapped with a loud and cowering growl at both of his foes.
Not wanting Donaldo to be poisoned as well, he thought fast to try and trap the Bellsprout in a Vine Whip spam carasoul. "Encore! Flatter it like Don would!" Don was the expert sucker-upper in TD, also the top whiner. Ross had no idea who this person was, but he knew what Encore meant! <That Vine Whip...it's so impressive. I might just have to hire you for an important mission. Could I see it again? Show me your moves!> Ross said with a cheeky grin, rubbing his chin as he gave the Bellsprout a sly glance. His Encore was awfully manipulative, and it seemed to confuse his opponents somehow when he used it.
<What a suck up! Don't listen to that guy!> The Minun glared at the Plusle as he Encored the Bellsprout, crossing his arms with a haughty smirk as the Plusle snorted and acted like Donaldo wasn't there. "Ease up guys, ease up. Quick Attack Bellsprout, and Spark the Drifloon." He was putting the pressure on Maria with these attacks alright, even if they weren't the strongest ones ever, the two mice could be annoying as hell together. Ross immediately went in for the Quick Attack against Hibiki, which left Corbin to take the Spark from Donaldo. The Minun frowned at the Drifloon's submissive nature and lack of apparent will to fight, but there wasn't much he could do about that. The Minun made a determined cry as his cheeks sparked, chasing after the ghost once more.

It seemed as though Corbin just couldn't get her act together today. It didn't help that she was battling against opponents with a type advantage but still, it shouldn't be this bad. Then again this was their first battle together too so maybe she needed to just be patient. Not all Pokemon started out great at battles, Zuzu for a fact sucked when he first started and now he was the highest level of all her Pokemon. Something she was extremely proud of. "It's okay Corbin, just stay calm and relax. You're doing great for your first battle so let's keep it up." The Spark attack hit her, causing her body to tense up and to use minimize. With her evasion as high as it was getting it wouldn't be too hard to dodge as much now. Maybe now she could avoid the nasty shocking attack a few more times. Turning her gaze away from the Minun she snuck up on the Plusle and used Astonish on him instead.
The confusion over two different opponents telling him two different things caused the encore to fly right over Hibiki's head. He then saw that the two electric types were bickering over each other. Sounded like they didn't get along very well... "Now, I bet if the Minun had used Encore it would have worked. He seems to know what he's doing." Maria picked up on her Pokemon's attempt to plow the other against each other. Good job Hibiki. A little under handed but good job she thought to herself. She was really glad her Pokemon were intelligent. [/style] |

Sadly the Bellsprout wasn't encored over all of that chaos, but things were fine. Donaldo had gotten a burst of poison though, making the blue electric mouse ill as he coughed in unison with Ross. The two mice looked as if they were going to have some trouble now, but to be fair Maria's side was having problems of their own. The Drifloon was definitely bound for trouble, especially with those self-conscious issues that seemed to make her more panicky and hesitant than the other, more confident battlers. She managed to get another Minimize in before startling Ross just enough to make him flinch; completely immobile on the battlefield as he cowered and covered his ears.
"Awww, Ross..." Susumu felt bad for the Plusle, but he had to stay standing where he was and not get in the Pokemon's way. Besides, they were old enough to know what a battle was about. It was all in good fun, and it was for sport as well. Donaldo could hear Ross coughing behind him, grunting as he felt a little bad for his partner. The Bellsprout's comments didn't go unnoticed as he started to actually prefer the Bellsprout over the Drifloon. <Ha, see. He knows what I'm about.> Donaldo said tauntingly, but his words were deaf on the flinching Plusle's ears. What a shame.
<Corbin, is it? I like your friend here more, so don't take this personally or whatever.> The Minun said in a haughty tone, resisting coughing from the poison as he wiggled a finger at the ghost type. Taunting electricity sparked from his cheeks as he suddenly fired off a Thunder Wave at the ghost, sparing Hibiki this turn because he earned the Minun's favor. It was then that he charged straight ahead with another Spark, realizing that it was effective the last time he used it, so why not again?

Corbin was once more struck with electric attacks, making her body weaker even now. She was close to fainting and even closer to giving up. She just wasn't meant for battle in her mind. After all this battle had hardly started and already she was almost fainted. It wasn't her fault though! They had type advantage and were a lot faster than she was after all... Focusing her energy she raised her critical hit rate, hoping she could do some damage before she fainted outright. Snaking her tendrils towards the plusle she attempted to catch him in a constrict attack.
Hibiki was fine with not getting struck this turn. It seemed as though he would be the one lasting a little longer in this battle than the last one he had been in. As the sunshine faded he brought it forth once more, trying to keep his speed up. It was crucial after all for a Pokemon as small as he. His vines lashed out at the Plusle as well, trying to give Corbin a helping hand. [/style] |

Susumu grimaced when he saw poor Ross get ganged up on, and with that poison to boot he was sure having it tough. The foes had a bit of trouble attack wise, but when ganging up on him like that, he was definitely looking tired now, as if he was in over his head. The poor bastard. What could he really do though? He glanced at the Drifloon and remembered his own, which had used Aftermath in the past. He was well aware of what it could do to the foes that damaged it, so it was going to be a major pain when taking it out. Basically they were fighting a ticking time bomb, that dealt the worst of the blows when knocked out naturally. Shame it had to be that way, but that was how it was.
Donaldo was safe this turn, save for the poison that kept ticking away like a clock. He winced as he endured his pain, but saw that Ross was in trouble. Bah, that Plusle always thought that he was the 'experienced' battler that knew more than him. What the hell of a difference did a level make, as well as being a few days older? Nothing, that's what. The Minun snorted as he left Ross to his own devices, but Susumu was quick to contain him with an order. "Helping Hand." Yep, that did it. Donaldo groaaaned as if this was painful to use, but he gave a few measly 'rah rah rahs' while sparks danced around him, motivating Ross a little more to give his next attack a little more power.
The Minun didn't want to bother the Bellsprout, so he was left with a Spark of his own charging after the Drifloon that threatened to vandalize Ross's body with its long strings. Poor Ross, getting molested like this with vines and strings. <My body isn't ready for this.> Ross squeaked in protest, using a Spark on the Bellsprout to try and teach it a lesson.

Her high evasion wasn't going to keep her safe for long, the attacks would hit, and probably soon by the looks of it. Corbin's breathing had gotten heavy and she was barely floating above the ground. If it wasn't for the fact that she finally looked determined Maria would have recalled the balloon on the spot. "It's okay Corbin, you don't have to keep going, it's just training after all so don't push too hard alright?"
<It's alright Maria, I can do this...> The ghost opened up her mouth and shouted one last time an Astonish attack at the Plusle before falling to the ground, fainted from exhaustion. Hibiki was the last man on the field and he knew that in order to win he would have to be in top shape. Using his last turn on sunlight he used his Synthesis attack to recover his health. [/style] |

The Drifloon put up a valiant fight against the two mouse Pokemon, especially as Corbin managed to get another frightening Astonish off on Ross before fainting. The Plusle huffed from the weak ghost type move, but honestly there were stronger attacks out there that he could have been concerned about. The most frightening thing about that though was its Aftermath ability, which caused a sickening sensation in the Minun's body as he buckled down and coughed, suddenly completely weakened from that one hit. He felt sick, tired, and caught off guard at that one. Susumu winced, having seen that ability coming as the two electric types continued to suffer from poison while the Bellsprout helpfully healed itself. This wasn't good, and he wasn't sure how they'd manage to stand up to this plant as it kept getting stronger.
"Spark and Growl, go!" He ordered quickly, the moment the Drifloon was safely returned and out of harm's way. No reason to get a fainted Pokemon involved in this mess, right? Ross huffed from exhaustion as he charged after the Bellsprout with an annoyed look, completely envious that the grass type had the ability to heal himself like that. Having a move like Synthesis would've been a nice thing on him, except mice couldn't take in energy from the sun like that. It simply would not work. Donaldo didn't want to hurt the Bellsprout anyways, so he weakly gave his own support from the background as he growled at Hibeki, trying to lower his offenses by appearing innocent.

Just like the last time she was down to one Pokemon. It had been a valiant effort but Corbin just wasn't able to crack it. Oh well. Maria returned the grass type to her Pokeball and silently congratulated her. Hibiki was all she had left and it looked like the two electric Pokemon were starting to get weaker. Maybe if she kept it up she would have something of a fighting chance against one of them. The spark and growl attack hit him, making him shiver a little. He really just wanted to show everyone he was an assassin. <Assassins work better alone anyways.> Using growth to make his special attack increase it was then that he shot a Vine Whip attack at the weakening Plusle.

The battle was quickly looking as if it was going to end, especially when it was two against one now. The Bellsprout was struggling to maintain its strength in the battle; with Ross taking the offense and quickly weakening from the strong Vine Whip, then Donaldo who simply refused to take it out on a grass type that realized that he was the superior Pokemon. It was an odd battle to witness, with the positive and negative forces both working for and against each other while dealing with their neutral foe. Susumu wished they could simply end the match faster, but this was about training. The Bellsprout needed all of the experience it could get, wasn't that right? "Tough Bellsprout." He commented, feeling like he was required to say something nice about Maria's Pokemon after standing around like this for so long. Kind of a short and bland thing to say, but he didn't like the lack of communication going on. It felt awkward, and it was hard to get into the groove of the battle when it was so lax.
Ross and Donaldo were still fighting off the poison, with Ross taking that Vine Whip and losing health fast. He panted, feeling weak and dizzy as he took the lashes with sparks decreasing from his cheeks. So assassins didn't work alone, did they? The Plusle burst forward into another Quick Attack, attempting to tackle the Bellsprout to the ground before he was knocked out. Ross was stubborn about it! God damn, if Donaldo wasn't going to help him and be useless with that stupid growling, then he was going to take it into his own paws and work without him! <Assassins! You might be out of your league there, Ross!> Donaldo taunted while crossing his arms, glaring at the Plusle as he growled loudly at the Bellsprout to seem as if he was doing something useful.

"Hopefully he'll get even stronger soon, he's been rough to train." It was true, the Pokemon had been weak when she had got him, her rare candies had been drained upon deciding to train him. It was well worth her investment though, he'd gone from not being able to hold his own to being the last of her Pokemon standing. The assassin bellsprout looked at his opponents, the minun somewhat far from his mind since he wasn't actually attacking him. The plusle's quick attack hit him and his scrawny body wiggled around, flailing his leaves about as he used growth. His special attack went up and he felt his body growing larger. His vines snaked out into a Vine Whip attack, trying to hit the Plusle. [/style] |

Was the Bellsprout really rough to train? Sususmu couldn't exactly tell how that would be an issue, as the Bellsprout seemed obedient and had a pretty decent movelist. What could the issue be, exactly? Without asking her, he could probably assume that she was too busy to train all of her Pokemon, but he figured asking her anyways would not hurt anyone. "How so?" Asking with a curious voice as he looked at her, but she seemed pretty focused on the match.
Probably a good reminder to start focusing on his own two mice too, just because he had to be a responsible trainer and stuff. Most likely a good idea, indeed. Poison was working its way through Ross and Donaldo, noooo, but it was only a big issue for Ross, who got Vine Whipped into fainting. The move was simply too strong for him after the Growth, simply making him faint on the spot with only a squeak of pain. Susumu winced at the attack, sympathizing with Ross a little before he returned him inside of the sphere. Sheesh, that had to hurt. Poor guy.
It was up to Donaldo, and it was a shame because it didn't look as if Donaldo wanted to fight. The Minun only wanted to pout, feeling bad for taking on the Bellsprout that complimented him, but maybe he could get a sense of gratification in taking out the Pokemon that knocked out Ross! "Spark it, you might have this in the bag." Susumu felt a bit excited, thinking the battle was ending soon. Both Pokemon were weakening, and it was the final stretch. The Minun let out a grumble, as if he wasn't very dedicated with the attack, but his cheeks sparked anyways. He could do it, he supposed. Donaldo went and covered his cheeks with sparks, charging after the Bellsprout as he tried tackling it.

Hopefully a bit of that confidence bounced back though." If she had been sitting, the green haired girl would have been on the edge of her seat. Biting her lip she watched as Hibiki waved his leaves about.
<I never lost my confidence! I just didn't feel like battling because I was tired. Assassins never lose confidence.> He shook as the spark attack hit him. He hated how electric attacks made his body feel all wobbly and junk. Didn't this guy know that overloading his system was bad? Still, he had to give him credit, he was starting to get a little tired. He rocketed his vines towards the electric Pokemon, hoping to win this battle. [/style] |
