The Gliscor that glided between the trees silently had lead its boss to a Clefairy. It stood upon a flat boulder at the center of a grass clearing. Waving its finger around, Belial had assumed she was casting a METRONOME. But, no. Instead, it seemed to be manipulating breezes carrying the sweet aroma of flowers (AROMATHERAPY).[break][break]

As interesting as a Clefairy with this ability was, however, the mercenary captain saw no real use for it in combat. So he moved on, signaling for his Gliscor to guide him to a new target with more potential.[break][break]

A Finneon struggled desperately to swim upriver. For what reason, Razerbait did not know. As the Gliscor glided down to snatch the fish when it leapt out from the water, however, it was surprised to have to dodge an AURORA BEAM.[break][break]

Unfortunately, when it turned back to spot its potential prey again it was nowhere to be seen.[break][break]

An EERIE IMPULSE captured the attention of the bat-winged predator above. Gliscor had been down to snatch Mareep and toss them off the edges of cliffs in other parts of the world. This one should count itself lucky there were no cliffs nearby.[break][break]

Instead, Razerbait swooped down and assaulted it with a ferocious NIGHT SLASH, landing a critical hit that completely rendered the prey unconscious. Afterwards, catching it was as easy for Belial as calmly striding up and tapping a heavy ball against its forehead.[break][break]

The trash appeared to be regurgitating all manner of junk in the middle of the forest. This was all in an effort to make itself lighter (AUTOTOMIZE), it seemed. If Belial hadn't seen much worse, he might have gagged.[break][break]

Needless to say, he walked past the heap of trash without another thought. His Gliscor continued to glide above, scanning the terrain from above for anything else of interest.[break][break]

A Teddiursa training for CLOSE COMBAT against a pine tree? It was an odd sight, sure, but a most welcome one for the mercenary captain. The target hadn't been of much interest to the Gliscor gliding up above, but that all changed when Belial signaled it with a whistle and pointed at it.[break][break]

The little bear would put up quite a fight, of course. But its CLOSE COMBAT was no match for Razerbait's NIGHT SLASH. Knocked unconscious, the Teddiursa was easy enough to aim for when Belial pulled out an empty heavy ball.[break][break]

Suddenly, the sky turned a dark shade of purple (NIGHT SHADE). Belial was quick to take cover and keep his eyes peeled to the sky above. His Gliscor camouflaged almost perfectly against that maroon backdrop. Perhaps, for that reason, the Hoothoot it chased down was unable to evade its strike, despite its attempted counter.[break][break]

The mercenary captain is quick to unlatch an empty heavy ball from his belt when he witnesses the small owl get struck by a critical NIGHT SLASH. It snaps a few branches on the way down before hitting the forest ground with a dull thump. Tossing the ball and capturing the unconscious is easy enough afterwards.[break][break]
