As the Mightyena reveals herself, Inaya smirks. A worthy opponent, although one at a great disadvantage to her Mawile.

Wasting no time, she commands, "Seirios, Play Rough!"

The dark-type takes the super-effective fairy-type move, snarling in response as she tries to shake off the damage. Seirios seems to smile, satisfied with herself. "Good work, Seirios! Hit her again before she has a chance to counter," Inaya commands.

The Mawile lands on top of the prone Mightyena, attacking it again with Play Rough. The dark-type pokemon's snarling increases in pitch, and Inaya bristles.

"Alright, Seirios, that's enough." Inaya's pokemon leaps back to her side, her massive jaws aimed on her target lest it attack.

Her red eyes are angry and glinting, her breath coming quick through ragged pulls and pushes of air. Yet she still claws herself to her paws, not willing to back down. The tension that bunches in her shoulders shows that she is biding energy to attack.

Inaya's eyebrows lift. This is a fighter.

"Join us, Mightyena. Let's get stronger together."

Inaya tosses the pokeball at Mightyena, and the pokemon howls.
