{desc=Bring your cats}
<Aye, this is refreshing. Bit of an odd room though, doncha tink?> A thick accent erupted from the burly tiger cat's mouth, examining the intricate structures that Verona's Expert Room provided. Susumu wandered in right after him, a bit curious about who would even show up in a room like this. Tougher trainers were scare these days, but apparently there were a lot more than before. From what he heard in the news, more challengers were defeating the gyms. They were getting stronger; something to really look out for in the future. "Don't be nervous. This place just evens the levels out a bit." Susumu explained, sensing that Santino was a little nervous about this place.
<That so? Interestin'. So where's the beef?> He turned his large heard over to his trainer as he plopped himself down in the very center of the battlefield. Not that anyone else was using it anyways, so might as well relax and enjoy the weirdness of it all. Not that the room was pretty to look at, but it was at least clean. It also had these weird vibes buzzing all around it. There hadn't been a specific challenger that Susumu had in mind, since this wasn't arranged or anything. He figured that someone was bound to walk in the place on a Friday afternoon.
Looking over at the Purugly, Susumu couldn't help but crack a grin at how odd the Pokemon was. It was like taking home a pet from the zoo, looking at this funky guy. Big, beefy purple tiger right here. Though Santino was an impressive Pokemon, he decided to cut his team down to a smaller amount since it was getting too hard to train them all. It didn't mean that he was going to leave the Purugly chained to the PC though; taking enough care of the cat to make sure it didn't get too fat from the lack of constant training.
ooc; There's about to be a--girl fight.

This was the exact kind of place Abram wanted to be right now, not only was his team quickly catching up in levels and bonding, but now Abe wanted to see his pokemons moves set against others, considering how levels are no longer viable in the expert room. ”You ready Hel?” the coordinator said as he looked down at his Pokémon in her pokeball. The Glameow purred in the pokeball as she touched the edge of the ball and it let out the feisty normal kitty Pokémon. +About time, Stop leaving me alone. Abe.+ the pissed off kitty slammed her trainer with her tail, just hard enough to show Abram that she meant business. ”HEY!” he spat out as his leg cramped, the coordinator limped forward trying to fix his leg and stretch it a bit more. +What you get, Jerk. Use me more, screw Rex. Remember, rule #1: I’m Number one.+ Hel purred, it was strange, Abram was able to understand his pokemon’s gestures a little bit, not exactly the words but what she meant by her purring and actions. ”Fickle little kitty aren’t ya?” he mocked his Pokémon as they walked forward into the expert room.
The room was filled with different battles going on, many different types were battling and it was obvious that somehow in this room levels were removed and it was just based on moves and how trainers were able to actually command their pokemons. This would be the perfect place for Abe to practice. ”oh god.” he called out and lightly touched his Glameow and showed her the battle happening on the right. A powerful Gyrados was facing off against a Slugma and surprisingly, the Slugma was winning somehow and at the end the fire Pokémon was able to come off at top. ”Damn. This really shows that type isn’t everything huh, Hel.” Abe said as he crouched down and petted his beloved Glameow.
The kitty could feel something staring at her with 400x zoom, she looked around and instantly she could tell that another cat Pokémon was in the room. Maneuvering out of Abram’s grip, she twirled her tail and coiled it tightly as she smelled for the other kitty. +There.+ she called out looking straight into Santino and his blonde trainer. Abram stumbled towards his Glameow and saw both the disgusting male Pokémon and his trainer. ”I guess this is fate huh?” he shrugged as he walked over to Susumu and placed his hand out, ”I’m Abram and this is Hel.” he was offering a nice gesture as Hel was growling at her foe already wanting to fight. +You disgusting prick, How dare you call yourself a Purugly. How could you transform into that, grotesque thing.+ the Glameow activist spat at her foe baring her fangs ready to fight.

Indeed, Santino could smell the other cat in the area before she even came into sight. He sat upright instantly with eyes staring at the opening in the door, keen on seeing the pretty face that it belonged to. To his surprise, there was a dainty young Glameow over there. She looked pissed off, but to be fair, the species always looked pissed off. She called out at him, making him huff as he examined his fine nails, pretending to look as if he didn't care much for her. He was naturally curious though, only acting as if she was nothing but a stranger in the background.
Susumu perked up at the sentence and turned around, not really recognizing the guy the voice belonged to. How was it fate? Taking a look from Purugly to Glameow, he had to assume he meant the same evolution-family in the room. "Shamu." He nodded at him, taking his hand and giving it a brisk shake as he motioned to the Purugly. "And that's Santino." Letting go of Abram's hand with a grin, he could already tell where this was going. Cat fight. Awesome.
Santino looked a little miffed at the Glameow's reaction to his form. Where was this attitude coming from? She needed to uncurl her tail a little, seriously! <You look like you applied too much human make-up yourself.> He grinned at her good-naturedly, realizing how he acted similar to her when he was a haughty Glameow. He eased up a lot after evolving, thinking that it was for the best.
"Glameow versus Purugly? That'll be fun." Susumu looked ready for this one, backing up to give the two felines their space. He could tell that the Glameow was all riled up, and with Santino's jolly nature shrugging it off, it was actually kind of humorous. "Start out easy with a Fury Swipes." They could use the harder attacks later, but for now a Fury Swipes didn't seem so bad. <Your fur is about to get ruined.> Santino chuckled as he unsheathed his claws, standing up and approaching her with a playful expression. <Worried?> He asked, only taunting her before going in for the strikes.

Whatever taunts Santino had, Hel did not want to hear a word from a Pokémon who would become such an ugly form. In Hel’s mind, Glameow was the epitome of beauty and once they decided to taint it by evolving into a Purguly, they had no right to call themselves a pure kitty. It just wasn’t right, Hel felt pretty and how would she ever feel pretty looking like that. A shiver ran down her back as she thought about it, she would and could never do that to her agile body. Hearing his somewhat vague attempt to hurt her feelings, +Cute.+ she acted as if she cared before looking at Abram. ”Right? So, how long have you had your Purugly and when did you evolve it?” Normally they wouldn’t speak so casually but this was a good-natured fight between the trainers, whatever prerogative Hel had was her own. ”Take the attack and use your very own Fury Swipes !” he said wondering what this man had tucked up his sleeves, of course Abram had some tricks too but he wondering if they were one in the same. Who knew? If Hel lost this battle it might actually teacher her a few things about being humble, but it was almost guaranteed that Hel would want to fight until she won, it was that haughty nature that made her like that.
Hel was furiously swiped at and she angled her body so that his thick disgusting claws only dug into her side, if he had hit her face it would’ve been over. The very vain and fickle Hel lengthened her claws and wanted to show that she was not only strong, but also agile and her agility and eloquence would be what made her the perfect coordinating Pokémon. Using her tail as leverage, she slammed it onto the floor creating a tiny dust cloud as a distraction. The Glameow disappeared and reappeared showing how quick she could really be. Finally, she was under Santino’s face and with both claws she attempted to scratch her evolve form’s face.
ooc - be classy, never trashy, always sassy.

Flashing the haughtier cat a knowing smile, Santino couldn't do much other than let her do her own thing. If she chose to ignore him, then that was fine. He still remembered his Glameow days, so she was tolerated and forgiven. She wasn't the prettiest Glameow he had ever seen, but he could still appreciate the fact that there was another feline here. For Susumu, he couldn't help but wonder what was going in those active minds. There was so much going on with their body language that it seemed impossible to pick up on some of the social cues these cats were flashing each other.
At first he could only flinch at the question Abram asked, mind rushing to get the right facts when he was busy focusing on the two Pokemon. It was a little difficult at first, but the answer came to him. "I've had him for almost a year now." Susumu had to think about that one, recalling that it was still summer when he caught Santino in route 2. "I actually caught him like this. Odd, right?" He was sure that most trainers usually started off with a Glameow because they looked fancy as hell, but nope. He started off with everything that a Purugly could be.
It was back to battle mode then, when they retaliated back with a Fury Swipes of their own. That was rather anti-climactic, making Susumu wonder if they had more attacks that were similar. He'd be surprised if they ended up having the same TM moves, but it was probably safe to expect similar attacks from the Glameow. <Not just a sharp tongue.> Santino was only able to duck under one of the five swipes, wincing as she nimbly danced around him with the strength of an athlete.
Susumu had an idea, but he wasn't sure if it was a good or bad one. He figured that there was no fault in experimenting with this, so he decided to take a chance on it. "Swagger, then go for a Payback." That Glameow probably had the same Own Tempo ability that Santino had, but it didn't matter. They'd abuse the stats and make it work out. Or not. It made sense in his head at the time. <Aww, pretty kitty isn't as pretty now.> Santino purred, teasing her as he strut his stuff on the field. She could look nimble and dainty, while he could look noble and strong. With a need for revenge after those Fury Swipes, his paws were stained black as he lashed out at her tail with his Payback attack. ooc; I want to be everything. :C also derp.

Hel felt disgusted; this creepy male Glameow insulted her entire being. His mannerisms, the way he spat out his words with a thick layer of disgust. It just made Hel feel like taking a bathe, as if he could see past her thick fur deep into her soul and molesting it with his grotesque ways. She couldn’t even explain it, but she needed to prove that she was no pussy. She could handle herself against these mighty Puruglys, that it wouldn’t end with simple attacks.
”I think I’ve had Hel for about a year too. She was a trade from a girl name Sierra, I think? I was in the trading station and I just had to have one. As a coordinator, you just have those staple diverse pokemon that we just need too have. Ya know?” he lulled on, his words being more of a check for himself then anything else. Abram was always so focused on the future and the road in front of him, he hardly looked back and seen the growth his pokemon had one through. This Purugly didn’t seem like a pushover; with powerful TM attacks Abram knew it was time to use some of their bigger attacks. As the swagger was sent over, Glameow could feel her attack sharply raising but thanks to Own Tempo, the confusion aspect of it just didn’t go through. ”Nice try. Your Purugly seems very strong, does he have lots of tm moves?” It was a simple question, not trying to pry too much information for Susumu. This was supposed to be a very friendly battle against two strangers. That’s how Abram saw it.
Hel was then hit with payback the dark damage doubled the attack that was sent towards her, His tail violated the poor Glameow as it hit her right in her butt. It hadn’t penetrated but her face was filled with shock/guilt and revenge. +You Disgusting prick! That’s it!+ she screeched out waiting for Abram.
”Okay, Super Fang and Charm!” Abe finally commanded as Hel nodded. Being a coordinator pokemon, they always had to go over and beyond with the appeal. In her tail, lots of little hearts began to build as she had a tight grasp on them. In one big push, she aimed her tail at Santino and shot her flurry of hearts causing a huge wall of red to be between the two kittys. Hel then grew her two front teeth out, rushing towards Santino with a super fang rushing through the hearts to sink her teeth in her foe. +That that. Jerk+
ooc- if you want to be everything, YOU BETTER WORK.

Susumu nodded at Abram's chatter at how he obtained Hel, only really perking up when he mentioned Sierra's name. Now that wasn't something he saw coming, especially when there were so many trainers in this region. It made the place seem awfully smaller than what it really was, giving him something to think about later. "I know her. I wouldn't have guessed that Hel belonged to her, ha." It was too small of a world. He wasn't the biggest coordinator ever, but he was doing it on the side as a hobby. It made him wonder how experienced Abram was in this particular area, wondering if he could pick up a few tricks by simply watching the guy.
"Are you experienced in coordinating...?" He let the question hang in the air, giving Abram a curious look as he waited for the guy to answer. He could've just been a hobbyist like himself, but Hel seemed to have these wicked movements that were oozing of grace and style. It showed that she was well trained when it came to showing off, especially with a side by side comparison to his large and bulky Purugly. At the 'Nice try', Susumu couldn't help but reveal a small knowing smile in response. Warning flag for Abram, right there. He had a plan with this one, so it wasn't entirely a fail on Susumu’s part. "Santino has a few tricks in the bag." They were a fun mix of attacks, but apparently Hel had a frightening mix of attacks as well.
Super Fang was a new one to his ears, but Susumu was aware of what it did. His Bibarel was supposed to learn that attack, which compelled him enough to look it up for himself to see what it did. It was bad for them alright, but all wasn't lost as Santino earned a painful bite to his leg. The hearts bashed into him, making him hiss and wince as his stats instantly went down. <Stronger than you look.> The shiny Purugly snarled, staring right at her as he started to get pissed off from the pain.
It was time to reveal why they used Swagger in the first place, leaving Susumu to hope that this double edged sword would make the battle end a little faster. "Psych Up, then Fake Out." Psych Up was definitely a TM move, one that he happened to win on a gamble of random TMs. It fit the Purugly as his eyes scanned the Glameow's shape and form, copying her stat boosts and growing stronger physically. His health might've been down to half, but the Leftovers that he had brought him some comfort. <Don't blink.> He snickered, moving surprisingly fast for a Pokemon of his bulk as he jumped in the air above Hel. If this Fake Out worked, he'd manage to pin her down and render her useless for a turn.

This battle was going as badly as he expected, Hel was holding her own and that’s all Abram could really ask from his partner. She was exceptional and just the way she eloquently moved throughout the battlefield just helped solidify her as one of his favorites. Despite her very clear attitude problem, it showed through her loyalty that she would and could be a very distinct threat although she was/will stay in her previous evolve form to show her beauty and elegance without having to ruin her precious body by turning into such a grotesque creature. Hel’s opinions were strong and if that was her only fault, well then she was still such a great partner to have on Abram’s side. ”Yeah, I forget how or what I needed to do to get her but, she’s literally my closest friend. A bit fickle at times, but what can you expect from a kitty right?” he finished with a laugh, this was probably the most fun he’s had in a while watching his Glameow truly fight with all of her prowess to succeed and prove her worth not only to Abram, but also to herself. The coordinator glanced over to Santino and the large kitty was grunting slightly, it was obvious that he was strong and had even more tricks up his sleeve, the only shitty thing is that with normal types they had many different moves they could learn so predicting those moves were nearly impossible.
”Yeah, I’m a coordinator first. Trainer second.” answering Susumu’s question with a proud answer, Abram hadn’t heard of too many other coordinators making it big. Cheyenne was a predominately trainer-oriented region and Abe wanting to prove that those who decided to intertwine both the arts with fighting to create a superior form of battling. A bit of a stretch on Abram’s part, it was the way he truly felt about Pokémon battling and what it could be to those who didn’t want to brutishly let their friends whack each other without an ounce of grace. ”So does Hel, we’ll see what tricks they’re be able to pull out and when.” and with his last statement Santino began his first onslaught using Psych Up to steal Hel’s status boost. +Evil bitch.+ Hel spat out as she heaved in and out, her chest raising as she took a deep breath. It had only been a few moments but the kitty was already out of breath from the attacks she already had to endure. ”You can do it!” Abe gave his partner a bit of a confidence boost as she nodded and ran in with her tail curved and a small water pulse was building until Santino leaped over Hel and used his fake out causing Hel to flinch and turn her head to the side in fright. +You’ll get it!+ she angrily cursed the Purugly as a rage began to build within her, this fat ugly Pokémon was able to move so graciously and was making her look like a damn fool and if it Hel had anything, it was her pride. Her eyes locked-onto Santino, she would be ready for his next tactic with a successful counter.

Their plan worked fairly well this turn, even if it did give Hel an added attack boost as well. At least the battle could end a bit faster if both Pokemon were prepped to be stronger than before. Susumu had to nod in agreement with what Abram was saying, even seeing that Santino had quite the fickle traits hiding in him. He acted laid back and chill, but there were just moments when he could not change Santino's mind. "Not really a cat person myself, but I like'em enough." He grinned as he said it, feeling impish when he saw Santino turn his head with a glare for that one.
It was interesting now that he knew that he was up against a coordinator, feeling like there was a reason why this battle seemed so different than the others he was in recently. Though both trainers were laid back in battle, at least right now since they were holding a conversation, their Pokemon were doing all of the classy dancing. They managed to completely wrap Hel in their trap, both smirking a little when the Water pulse was canceled out. Now that looked like a fun little move that could mess Santino up. Susumu was already able to guess at how water would rile him up, judging from his hatred of a certain Bibarel on his current team. Not always a good thing to rely on anger to motivate oneself to attack, recalling the cat's temper whenever he had some kind of grudge to deal with.
<I'm sure I will. Maybe when you're done cleaning your fur.> He teased, still in good spirits since the Glameow hadn't managed to piss him off yet. So far he was mostly amused at her sassy attitude, feeling nostalgic since she had a personality similar to his own when he was once a Glameow. Eager to take advantage of his new boost in attack power, his claws were sharp and ready as he lashed out at her ears this time. She was bound to get spooked with this one!
