Catching sight of Absol a little too late, Poseidon was grasped tightly on his fin. Wincing in pain, he struggled to free himself.
"Poseidon, use the other fin! Let's see a Pound attack!" Chase said quickly, wanting to see him go free as quick as possible.

Soul yipped when the Pound hit her, and released the Pochama. Tumbling to the ground, she struggled to her feet and fixed her eyes on Poseidon, using a Leer. Firing her hind legs, she jumped forwards again, her claws extended for a Scratch.

To even things up, Chase had her Pokémon equalize the situation. "Poseidon, use Growl! Follow up with Pound, stop that Scratch!"
Poseidon emitted a deep growl - unusual for a little guy. He then stepped forth as his opponent did to stop the Scratch attack. Extending a fin, he aimed to punch Absol's foot to prevent the continuation of her attack. In essence, it was more defensive than offensive, and Chase would later have to decide which attack to use..based on whatever Absol decided to do next.

Soul felt the tiny fin pound into her pad, stopping it, but extended her other paw in an attempt to Scratch the little penguin anyways. A quick evaluation had told her to aim at the other fin, hopefully stopping it from Pounding her again. Unless the Pochama chose to pound her other paw, she still had an opening...

As the other paw came down, Poseidon was caught off-guard. "Cha!" he exclaimed, 'Ugh!' He stumbled backwards and struggled to regain his balance. Sighing, he managed to pull himself together. Still at close range, Chase needed to make a quick decision if she wanted to win this match.
"Poseidon, Bubble! Let's slow this Absol down!" Chase said, knowing very well that her opponent was stronger. It was obvious, especially with the way Absol thought. Chase had to be strategic, and strength wouldn't necessarily win this battle for her.

Soul screed, <Yip!> as the Bubble hit her in the face. Sliding back a few inches, she pushed off against a frozen rock, lunging into the air for an attack from the air.
<GERONIMO!> she screamed, a phrase taught her long ago by Nyjen.

"Poseidon, Water Sport! Let's ice up the field!" Chase exclaimed, finally coming up with her little brilliant idea.
Spraying water everywhere, it soon turned into an icy battlefield. With the obnoxiously cold weather in these mountains, it didn't take long to freeze at all. Sliding to the side, Poseidon used the ice to avoid Absol's jump. He slid happily too, like any penguin would.

"HEY THERE!" A girl on skis came down to Chase's level. The Absol ran away (yeah, GMing, but you/he aren't/isn't there ><) "Hey you there, do you want to battle? There aren't that many trainers around here..." Bundled up all in pink, the girl took out a pokeball. "Either double or single. I don't mind."

"Umm...sure" she said, a little flustered that Absol had fled so suddenly. Poseidon propped himself up and waddled over by Chase's side.
"Let's make it a double battle!" she suggested, always having been more fond of them compared to others.

"Okay," said the girl. "By the way, I'm Karyn. Now, meet my friends Claw and Santa!" Two pokeballs were thrown into the air and a sneasel and a delibird. "Your turn!"

"Okay! Let's get this started! Go, Re, Naga!" Chase cried enthousiastically, releasing her respective Pokémon to do battle.
Chase's new Typhlosion appeared with a flash of fire. Flames erupted from her neck as she roared loudly. Naga appeared next with a challenging look about him (as per usual). The snake turned to Re, surprised to have a new comrade next to him. He didn't like teams, but he had confidence that this one wasn't going to fail him. Of course, he didn't tolerate that crap anyway.
"Nice ice types! Your move!"

"You're welcome. I train them really hard. Now, Claw, Leer! Santa, drop them a little present!" said the girl in skates. While Claw started glowering at his oponents, the Delibird took out a large red-and-silver package and chucked it in the middle of the field.

"Re, use Gyro Ball! Trip your foes! Naga, use Flamethrower! Turn up the heat!" Chase ordered with enthousiasm.
Curling herself into a ball, Re glowed white as a silver sheen encased her body. She revved in the snow before taking off, aimed at knocking both Claw and Santa to the ground where they'd be vulnerable. Of course, steel type attacks were super effective against ice types, so that was just a bonus.
Meanwhile, Naga reared his head and released a Flamethrower. It was cliché to start off with a fire move when facing ice types, but it worked, didn't it? Soon after the flames spouted from his mouth, he was forced to stop the stream as the Present attack blew up in his face. Cringing as a soot-like substance covered his face, he looked quite angered.

"Santa, take to the skies and try to avoid all the attacks!" said Alice. "Claw, use your speed to your advantage!" The little sneasel zoomed around in the snow as the bright red bird flew into the air. The bit of flamethrower that was used burned the tail feathers of the Delibird who let out a squack, the present he was about to drop blowing up in his own face. Fortunately, the Gyro ball attack was avoided.
He couldn't say the same thing for Claw. The sneasel was rammed by the Typhlosion, flying back quite a bit. Hopefully, the leer had worked and his next attack would be more successful... That attack came in the shape of an Icy Wind. All around, the weather seemed to worsen. Snow flew around, blown by the wind that picked up. A particulary large gust appeared, concentrated in a jet, blowing towards the Typhlosion.

Re growled as the snow began to hinder her vision. The flames on her neck intensified as she used them to evaporate the annoying ice pellets cutting her visage and ruining her sight. Swatting at the air, she tried to regain herself.
"Re, Smoke Erupt! Use your fire to stop that Icy Wind! Naga, use Ear-" Chase paused, no no no...couldn't use that...Earthquake would do heavy damage on Re, "I mean, Dark Pulse! Strike down that bird!"
That was close. Hesitating a little, Naga released his attack a little later than he may have wanted had the order been direct. Regardless, he hurled a ball of dark energy at Santa to knock him down. He didn't like the idea of an air raid. Re continued to fight off Icy Wind and used Smoke Erupt as instructed. The flames on her neck shot out wildly as a fiery eruption occured. Hot smoke shot in all directions as miniature fireballs exploded like fireworks.
"Good!" Chase exclaimed happily.

"Claw, quick attack! Santa, dodge and drop another present on that serpent!" As the Smore Erupt was melting the Icy Wind, the Sneasel went over for a quick attack. In the meantime, the Delibird was flying around, trying to avoid the Dark Pulse. Quickly, he let a present drop down, right before it was hit by the attack and sent flying.

Smoke Erupt was an attack that worked well on a long range scale, but it handicapped the one who used it as well. A little frozen in her place (not literally xD), Re was forced to take the incoming Quick Attack. She held her ground despite this, but had still been knocked around a little.
"Re, respond with Flame Wheel!"
Curling up with some difficulty, Re became a large, pointy sphere of flames. Revving like she had done before using Gyro Ball, she released her charged fire attack at close range. It would likely be effective, but there was a chance that Re's accuracy had faltered and that she would have to turn around - giving Sneasel some time to recover or dodge.
Naga, in his own little battle, had another bomb drop on him. It landed just a few feet away from him this time. It hadn't caused any direct damage, but the shrapnel had cut his skin significantly. Shaking it off, he was rather angry.
"Naga, Flamethrower! You have to stop those Present attacks!"
Taking the time to aim a bit better, he released a breath of hot air from his throat. He just wanted that damn bird out of the sky. Stupid.

The sneasel was sent back flying from the Flame Wheel attack. It seemed to have trouble getting back up but did so anyways. The cold numbed the pain so it was able to keep going. Adrelanin kept it fighting, letting it use a Fury Swipes, the sneasel clawing at the typhlosion with everything it had.
The flamethrower his the Delibird and it started to fall. A few inches from the ground, it started flapping its wings once again, trying to get back into the sky. A few presents were dropped, the first few healing everything around, but the last one emmiting a large explosion. Unable to take two hits, one from the snake and one from himself, the Delibird fell to the ground.
"Santa, be careful! Try to get back into the air, or at least keep that serpent back with your presents!"
Too weak to fly up, the bird opted in throwing multicolored gifts at its foe.

"Re, counter Fury Swipes with Flamethrower! Stop those claws! Naga, use Wrap! Draw that Delibird close!" Chase directed, addressing both of her Pokémon at once to get the orders in fast.
As Sneasel charged at Re, the fire type replied with Flamethrower. Despite this, she was hit critically a couple of times and was forced to intensify her attack to dissuade any more hits. She didn't want those claws in her face anyway, after all. Growling, Re seemed ready to take on the next attack with preparedness.
As Delibird fell into position, Naga seized his opportunity to track down the bird and grab a hold of it as instructed. Healed a couple times by convenient presents, all was going well until a final large explosion. Forced to recoil before proceeded through a cloud of smoke, Naga made a guess at his opponent's position and grabbed at the air, hoping to catch the one he planned on wrapping.

The sneasel felt triumphant as he felt teh claws hit his target. However, it hadn't expected the flames to double up and send him into black oblivion, fainted. Claw was replaced by a third pokemon, a tiny little swinub. The moment Karyn released her final pokemon, she ordered him to use an ice pebble on the Typhlosion. Karyn knew that Santa wasn't going to last for much longer and weighted all her chances on Nubby. That didn't mean she was giving up on her Delibird though... "Santa, I know you can escape from there!" she yelled. Naga had her pokemon trapped and it pained her to see the bird squawling, writhing, trying to escape from the snake's grasp. Unable to use the present attack, the pokemon started to fight tooth and nail, or, in this case, beak and claw. It tried blindly to scratch and peck the snake, attempting to break free.
