[STYLE=border-bottom: 5px solid #FFC7FF;] [/style] Arthur was hoping to at least meet another trainer here, but he had set up a battle with another trainer that he actually sort of liked too. Perhaps proving himself to her was his way of saying that he wanted attention or he was trying ot determine how much she actually liked being with her pokemon and this actually was not resting well with him. Oh, he wanted so much more than just to have a battle, although, he wasn't sure of what to say due to how simple-minded he could be at times. Arthur's team was full so far, and he was planning on keeping it that way thanks to the horsea he had just gotten, as well as the magby that was his fire pokemon that seemed to know a fighting move already. Karate chop was one of the simplest ones to know and was glad it could have a 50% chance to be a critical hit. Yes, quite powerful for a little fire pokemon, and now he had pokemon that could counter any other one he came across minus maybe a ghost/dark pokemon at the moment. Arthur would need to wait for an actual cool pokemon to replace any of his current ones, but he was thinking of keeping this team for now until a better pokemon came along to replace his pidgeot with. Arthur probably would never get rid of his pidgeot though, but luckily if he got his first badge he'd be able to have seven, or was it two badges, and then one extra pokemon. He could never remember and he checked his watch as he realized the time was still a little early so Marlaey still had time to get here.

Marlaey entered the trainer's lounge, feeling pleasantly surprised at Arthur's request to battle. She was looking forward to it, regardless of the outcome. It would give her a chance to see how he interacted with his Pokémon better. She loved battling, even if she wasn't particularly fantastic at it yet, and her Pokémon seemed to enjoy the experience too. She smiled as she held Harper's pokeball in her hand. She would definitely choose to use him in this match, and since it was going to be a full on six on six battle, each of her team would get a chance to level up. She had thought this was a good suggestion of Arthur's and reminded herself to thank him later.
Once she reached the room and saw him waiting for her she waved, "Hey there!" standing in position she decided to send out all of the Pokémon she intended to use, just in case he wanted to know. It would also give her Pokémon a chance to watch each match and possibly learn from it.
"I can't wait to see how this goes!", she said excitedly, gesturing to Nara to move forward first.

Although, she might be able to easily take out his paras, but he'd save him for later, considering the poison from the ekans would be super effective. Not a good combination with the bug/grass combination that he was, but stunning sounded like a good thing to him right now. Well, he liked Marlaey, but he wondered what he should say to get this thing started after all he supposed he should at least show his team too so she had a fair advantage. Arthur was considering giving her some easy wins, but they'd both have to work for it, it seemed. One more level and Arthur's gastly would learn mean look hopefully if he succeeded in this battle. Luckily he had status ailments on his side, but it wasn't just his gastly he wanted to gain a level. Hopefully they would stick to their current pokemon instead of switching out as his gastly made her appearance for the first time, and he released the rest of his team. They were all ready and waiting as they all seemed to yawn, the only one that wasn't really excited was his horsea that literally hid behind his leg as soon as it appeared. Obviously shy and very scared of the situation, as was his magby that he had just gotten from the pokemon shop. Well, the rest of his team was just standing by, mainly Speed, the pidgey, Butch, the paras, Zing, the horsea, Midnight, his meowth of course, and Molt his magby. While Shimmer was hovering out towards the Ekans rolling in the air back and forth giving a toothy smile, Ooo this is going to be fun, I hope you like jokes, cause I have one for you, why did the rooster talk to the chicken? the gastly was already snickering as she was saying this. "Glad you could make it, Marlaey, uhm...looking as..uh...beautiful as usual," he complimented her, blushing a little, the first blush he ever had too even though they were about to battle. Perhaps he'd be nice and let her have the first hit.

Marlaey watched as Arthur released his team and felt her eyes widen with admiration. Such a diverse group of pokemon! Wow, he certainly knew how to make a good line up. Looking at her own pokemon she noticed just how many fire types she had there, which was completely accidental. She hadn't realised she liked that type so much! Even if Arthur's pokemon had a braoder range of abilities and moves, she trusted her own pokemon to do their best. They always did for her.
When she saw his little horsea flee behind him she couldn't help but bite her lip and smile at the water type, so cute! And that magby too! "Oh I'd love the chance to train a magby.." she whispered, almost to herself.
At his compliment, Marlaey blushed too, "Oh.. thank you!" she said, looking down and smiling. When she noticed that Shimmer had moved forwards to battle first she folded her arms and looked at Arthur, "Oh now that's not fair and you know it! Nara will barely be able to attack her, hardly a fair match!" she complained, laughing.
Nara however didn't see the funny side. How was she going to win if she couldn't hit the ghost? <I don't know anything about a rooster talking to a chicken!> she said hurriedly, trying to get Marlaey to switch her out so she could actually battle with another pokemon!

[STYLE=border-bottom: 5px solid #FFC7FF;] [/style] So Arthur had a few choices with what he wanted to do, but he knew that his gastly only had one powerful move that was rather random when it hit. Although, he could at least do some damage with it in general since it was typeless in the first place so it wouldn't have been supereffective against the ekans either way. Shimmer was rolling around in the air, while Arthur's other pokemon remained out just starting to sit there to play with each other. Midnight, his meowth was sitting at his feet and using a paw to groom herself as she licked it slowly. Letting out a few cute meows in the first place, and then his paras was pretending to have a duel with his pidgey. The magby and horsea however had clung to each of his legs while looking out from behind his legs. It was amusing how easily they seemed to be scared, but they had to learn how to battle one way or another. Having just gotten them meant he would need to use them more in battle to gain more of their trust. Paras, well, Arthur was glad he had learned stun spore and poison powder. As much as he wanted to start this battle, perhaps he would wait to let her change pokemon so it was more fair, or he would just choose a different one. After all, he knew his meowth could actually take them all on easily, but he wanted the level for his gastly first. Mainly to finally evolve it into a haunter. "Well, you can go ahead and switch your pokemon then, we won't begin just yet, I'll be nice this time...only cause you look gorgeous today," he said to her. Then a deep blush crossed his face as he added, "Oh, uhm, just cause you know, it's only fair since I had done this on my own...well..you know...fair is fair after all..." he said scratching the back of his head, and knew he was hitting on her. That was something strange, but perhaps he should save that for after the battle.

Marlaey grinned at Arthur,"You wouldn't mind?" she asked, referring to his offer for her to swap. Considering Gastly was a ghost type, Nara really wasn't going to have much of an effect on her so Marlaey decided to switch her out for Nova, her vulpix. She looked around for the still one white tailed fox and beckoned her forwards. "You're up Nova, sorry Nara, you can have your turn later." The dark scaled snake slithered back to the group of pokemon that made Marlaey's team. she felt a little put out, but knew that she'd get her chance to fight soon enough. The rest of Marlaey's pokemon were either playing with eachother or watching the two trainers interact and waiting for the match to actually start.
Marlaey continued to smile, her own cheeks beginning to glow. "Let's get started then!" She looked to Nova and called out, "Kick off with your Ember attack Nova!"
The young fox yipped a response before her eyes began to glow with inner fire. She jumped towards the gastly, unleashing her ember on the ghost pokemon.

[STYLE=border-bottom: 5px solid #FFC7FF;] [/style] Arthur's Pokémon were already in line and Arthur was considering switching his pokemon, but he did have an unfair advantage with what he could do. Even if Marlaey knew fully well what he was capable of, and now was his chance to prove it although his gastly really didn't know any major moves at this moment in time. So now was his chance to show her what he was made of and perhaps use this as an excuse to call it a date, nah, he wasn't going to be that naive, not today at least. "Shimmer, use Hypnotise, then use Lick" he said to his gastly who merely nodded to her trainer as she smiled. Oh that joke never gets old, but the answer was, whenever the rooster wants the chicken to lay eggs! such a horrible joke as she rolled in the air and then wiggled her eyes suggestively at the vulpix, as she was incinerated by the ember, however, remained unharmed. Then the gastly slowly waltzed up and then in a lightning fast move whipped out it's excessively long tongue to trail up the vulpix's cheek in an attempt to paralyze it. Have some loving, compliments of the chef, me, she said to her.

Nova was instinctively fearful of the gastly before her, but she put on a brave face and ready herself for her opponent's attack. Marlaey heard Arthur's commands and immediately instructed her vulpix to dodge. Nova managed to get out of the way of the hypnosis, but that meant that she walked straight into Shimmer's long tongue. Shivering as she stumbled backwards, she was very lucky not to have been paralysed. Shaking herself she flicked her ear back to listen to her trainer's next instruction.
"Disable on that Hypnosis attack Nova and hit her with another Ember! You're doing great!", Marlaey called to her, grinning at Arthur.

[STYLE=border-bottom: 5px solid #FFC7FF;] [/style] Arthur figured there would be another Ember, but he had to figure out another tactic to get him what he needed. This was indeed different against another trainer, and against someone he could relate to for a change. "Hmm...let's see, spite on the ember and then use psywave!" he said to his gastly letting her take another ember as she shuddered the attack off. Well, this battle was probaby going to be a while, but he did have a slight advantage now. Even so, he planned on using spite until that ember was useless, and then he could at least get on to the regular attacks. Getting rid of that one attack was going to be tough, but even as the Gastly used Spite she suddenly let out a mind blast at the vulpix. Aiming for her, and Shimmer merely nodded towards her as she wiggled her eyebrows again even as she had been scorched by the ember. The disable had indeed effected her hypnosis, but Arthur was quite familiar with that move.

Marlaey listened as Arthur called out his next attack. Spite. Good move. She grinned,admiring his strategy as Nova was hit by the psywave. Reeling back the fox pokemon shook herself before running forwards and lashing out with her white tail. If she lowered the ghost's defence then she'd have a better shot at defeating her.
"Good job, no another ember!", Marlaey called, knowing her vulpix was doing well on her own.
Nova barked and charged forwards, flames licking the sides of her mouth as she released another ember at Shimmer. She wanted to beat this ghost type who kept making jokes all over the place.

[STYLE=border-bottom: 5px solid #FFC7FF;] [/style] Arthur knew this battle was going to be quick, but that was because his gastly really didn't have that high of a special defense cap on her. Shimmer was definitely not going to last that long, but luckily he did have a plan...hoping that his gastly could indeed keep up with the many blasts of fire she was being hit with. "Shimmer try dodging that ember!" he said to her, and she merely rolled to the side of the ember at the last second...it almost singed her. That was a lucky call, but she wasn't done just yet, "Use Spite again!" he said to his pokemon, trying to make her ember die down some more. If the PP disappeared completely Arthur would have a better chance of winning this. Of course, she could still switch out pokemon...Arthur wasn't planning on doing that, and decided to go with the rule that he wouldn't switch out his pokemon. Shimmer then smiled as she used another spite attack aimed straight for the vulpix. Here you go, sweetie, taste my wrath, Shimmer said to the vulpix as she batted her eyes and then shot another venomous spiteful look towards her. Ember was known to only have fifteen pp, and if he was right, Spite dropped it down by at least 2 to 5 PP by chance each time...so a few more times and she'd be out of that move. It was a cunning strategy while he was waiting for her hypnosis to get back into effect.
