[attr="class","danny"]exeggutor feels a bit bad about attacking a sleeping opponent...so the grass-type spends this turn simply dancing, hopping on one foot then the other as he conjures up a shield of REFLECT.

the SLASH would've been enough to down the whiscash if not for the prior TICKLE. he holds on just enough to throw another AQUA TAIL back at the lil bear.

grimmsnarl takes the METEOR MASH and slowly feels an arm giving out. because of it, he switches to the other arm and throws the same HAMMER ARM.

[attr="class","danny"]the law must be followed, no matter the region. their eyes did meet, after all!

"oh i thought i was a bit more mysterious than that but uh...yes! please."

danny gestures over his shoulder to an empty spot on the beach that's just perfect for an impromptu battle.

"over there, maybe?"

[attr="class","noodles"]Evette Moreau

[attr="class","danny"]grimmsnarl definitely has more stamina than the haunter, perhaps from having trained more. or maybe grimmsnarl's just naturally built that way — good genes, maybe?

the DAZZLING GLEAM blinds once again, but this time grimmsnarl's able to shake it off much quicker before hopefully ending the battle with one final SPIRIT BREAK.

"that's it!"

[attr="class","danny"]with the obstagoon now ASLEEP, exeggutor spends the round healing himself with a MOONLIGHT.

the SLASH drags across whiscash's scales, hurting and creating distance. but that doesn't last long — whiscash darts forward to swing his AQUA TAIL at the teddiursa.

and it seems like grimmsnarl and metang are stuck in a loop. once again, METEOR MASH is countered by HAMMER ARM.

[attr="class","noodles"]Cardamom Bliss

[attr="class","danny"]"oh! that's my bad. i thought it used SCREECH hehe."

the seismitoad floats back to the surface, then slowly wades back over to danny and the other. he dips his head slightly, apologizing for being so brutal against a pokemon that's already fainted.

perhaps it's alluding to rocket!danny.

"thank you too, man! it was fun."

[attr="class","noodles"]Adrian Malcolm

[attr="class","danny"]"drown it, sassy!"

wait, is that even possible?

could fish drown?

the thought lingers on danny's mind as he watches his seismitoad close the distance before vomiting out a heavy stream of HYDRO PUMP that looks to sink the sharpedo.

[attr="class","noodles"]Adrian Malcolm

[attr="class","danny"]ICE FANGS sink into seismitoad's slimy skin, drawing blood that slowly starts to ooze out into the water, tainting it red. but the prior AQUA RING washes it away, healing what little damage it can.

it allows seismitoad to throw another DRAIN PUNCH.

[attr="class","noodles"]Adrian Malcolm

[attr="class","danny"]SKULL BASH knocks the wind out of seismitoad, though the attack would've been much more severe if sharpedo still has its ROUGH SKIN. thankfully, it doesn't, so seismitoad shrugs the attack off to return a DRAIN PUNCH.

"let's go, sassy!"

[attr="class","noodles"]Adrian Malcolm

[attr="class","danny"]"set up your defenses, sassy!"

nodding, the seismitoad squirts out water that surrounds it, forming an AQUA RING as he prepares to face the sharpedo's charge.

[attr="class","noodles"]Adrian Malcolm

[attr="class","danny"]"no problem at all! didn't keep us waiting long."

us being him and his two pokemon who are already out on the field. it'll be an interesting match for sure, judging by their opponents.

"and yep! seems like it. name's danny, it's nice to meet you, sir!"

[attr="class","noodles"]Alexei Ivanov

[attr="class","danny"]danny decides it's probably best to focus on the battle as well.

"uhh keep doing your things! you got this, team!"

do they, though?

exeggutor takes the PIN MISSILE, roaring in pain as his eyes pulse in a HYPNOSIS on the obstagoon.

the FEINT ATTACK connects, slapping against whiscash's chunky belly which only makes him BELCH out his lunch from earlier.

again, the grimmsnarl takes the METEOR MASH, showing his strength as he returns a HAMMER ARM.

[attr="class","noodles"]Cardamom Bliss

[attr="class","danny"]where are his manners?

"oh! i'm danny. nice to meet you!"

and the battle kicks off. he's scrambling to form plans in his head as attacks are thrown their way. his pokemon will just have to take them first round, sadly.

exeggutor's hit by the NIGHT SLASH, cutting away leaves off the top of his head. he returns an EGG BOMB that's tossed over. ya YEET

whiscash is hit by the SLASH but rushes forward to TICKLE the other.

grimmsnarl, easily the most experienced out of the three, takes the METEOR MASH and closes the distance to throw a POWER-UP PUNCH.

[attr="class","noodles"]Cardamom Bliss

[attr="class","danny"]did he say a bomb? wait...

"did you say a BOMB?"

but it's too late.

the SLUDGE BOMB explodes, sending nasty poison everywhere. it coats grimmsnarl's body and causes him to slip, poisoned. he lands on his back, but kicks his leg up to repeat the SPIRIT BREAK.
