"They have a few screws loose but they're not entirely imbecilic," he comments quite annoyed with what they brought out. This whole area a trap for them to use to their advantage. Especially as the crowd seemed to cheer for their two favorite wrestling pair. [break][break]

For now all he gives is a whistle for the Hitmonlee to use HIGH JUMP KICK. Two which the Halucha just flies away avoiding them. Casing the kicking pokemon to take Recoil Damage as it hits the ground.

"The pokemon did sufficiently," he admits, happy that this tournament seemed to come at the best time for him. Seeing as with how long he's been out of commission in Rocket. It allowed him to polish what had rusted. He gives a simple nod farewell before heading off, maybe different muses will play more.

There was a panic in the bug as it saw the FIRE BLAST coming at it, in the end it had to make an EMERGENCY EXIT back to his pokeball. Giving up the match in the end. Not like it would've survived the Fire Blast in the first place, but the cowardice was still disgraceful. Though if it was afraid now it will know fear for letting him down. [break][break]

The Grapploct had come to learn loyalty in this tournament though. It braces for the muddy water, it's legs are weak and it's shaking shows how tired it is. It would try for one final SEISMIC TOSS on his new opponent. See how far it would get him.

"Sounds like a good reason to compete, hope you've been doing well," he like this, she seems much more chill than most others he has battled against. Razz gives a whistle to call Sal who jumps from the Starmie to his trainer. The cat shaking his body to get both trainers wet. "Brat," he mumbles as he bonks the cat on the head. The Meowstic pretending to play dead because of it because truly it was the hardest bonk in the world. [Break][break]

Picking up the Meowstic razz stands up, "Ready when ever you are Miss Bliss

Pryde just shrugs, still playing friendly for now. That was the point of the tournament after all, but as far as he knew the other did not wear the same hat as him. [break][break]

"Sadly battling is not really much of a thing of mine anymore," as he shakes the other's hand with his right side they would feel exactly why. "Much more of a book man now"

"Does it matter? He'll learn to battle properly soon enough," Pryde says uncaring about the other's concern for his pokemon. His pokemon were either to properly preform, or they would be corrected. He doesn't care about their so called feelings and he doesn't care if the crowd or his fellow Rockets knew it. [break][break]

Golisopod is knocked back by the IRON TAIL, figuratively being back into a corner. Pryde would give another whistle for an order, not sure what else to do it follows. A red aura comes around it before it explodes out ward to strike at both of their foes with STRUGGLE BUG. [break][break]

Meanwhile Grapploct feels himself getting weaker, but he was going to keep on trying. As the Struggle Bug also goes for his opponent, he would try a ROCK SMASH.

With her now being paralyzed both trainer and pokemon know there is little to no chance of winning. However this was no excuse for her to be giving in. He expected effort from all of his pokemon, and the marowak knew this. So she planned to keep trying. [break][break]

However as another TWISTER comes in and knocks her back, she ends out knocking out, ending Pryde's final pokemon. An amuse smile just hits his lips, uncaring about the loss as he recalls the ghost. "Not bad, congratulations on your loss Mr. Silph"

Pryde just raises a brow at one of their opponents, finding them to be a bit off. Though it could just be his disinterest with the style of the sport they wanted to emulate. He picks out a ghost pokemon of his all for an big old 'X' to come up on the screen behind him and the treasure hunter. "Nuh-uh-huh!" the wrestler members, "Rules in this court house says Fighting Type pokemon ONLY!"[break][break]

"There is no such rule-"[break][break]

"UH YUH HUH!" another voice says as from the ceiling comes another fighter. This one has a mask and a judges robe on "I am the judge here! And da rules are the rules old man!"[break][break]

"That isn't-" Another 'X' appears with a loud horn sound. "STILL WANNA ARGUE!?" Pryde narrows his red eyes at them. "I'm going to kill them," he grumbles, his voice a little more serious for a throw away joke. For now Hitmonlee takes the stage along with his tag team partner.

Now he knows he's a jokester, but it would be good to exercise himself a bit. Pokemon couldn't do everything in the end, "Why not?" he agrees eventually as he goes look into the course. Apparently it was a bit of a battle royal, and mimicking the pokeathlon of last year where it required one pokemon for you to be with, but this time rather than working together you worked against one another. [break][break]

"Seems simple enough," for now he picks his pokemon and waits at the starting line.

The Grapploct grunts as the SAND TOMB traps him, the sand coming up and hurting. However it was willing to keep going, running forward Grapploct would try to aim its SUPERPOWER at Garchomp. [break][break]

However unlike the fighting type, Golisopod was quite terrified of how far the battle was going on. As STONE EDGE was coming at them, rather than taking it to try and fight back. It tries to protect itself with DEFENSE CURL to reduce the damage. Pryde makes note to have them corrected later.

Pryde just shrugs at the other's remark, clearly not judging. He feels he's dealt with the worse Rocket had to offer, and with the person in front of him, and Cillian Quinn as the new heads he needed to follow. Pryde is sure he'll be able to adapt just fine. Though he supposes he'll still need to see the admins. One in particular he feels will be a problem. [break][break]

But only time will tell. [break][break]

While Froslass wasn't weak against the Petal Dance, she was still quite rusty for having been in stasis for so long. Battles were almost like starting anew and it ends up both knocking her back and out of the ring. "Not bad," Pryde comments as he returns her back to her back to a pokeball. "I suppose we'll see each other another time then?"

A shock go through her body as the THUNDER WAVE hits. A shark sets through and she does what she can to shake it off. At least she isn't hurt and keep going. This is what she tells herself as she shakes her head. Ready to attack as she attempts something, but the Thunder Wave paralyzing her in place and preventing her from attacking.
[break][break]

Just great.

Red eyes roll at the other's childish behavior, "Oh no, you got me however will I recover from such a childish insult," he mocks, annoyed rather than angry. [Break][break]

"But when you start hearing voices in your head one day, say one of your child calling out for help from the water," he steps forward as he continues, it's an example he doesn't know if the other has kids or not but that was besides the point he was making. "Calling out 'daddy daddy save me' from the water, and as you get close a hand comes to grab you," in that very moment, to prove a point a ghostly hand would pass through the others shoulders as if grabbing hold of him, but there would be no force, just sheer cold, there as Pryde is now up close. [Break][break]

"Don't say you weren't warned as those ghostly find bring you down into the day depths, having made you believe you were helping a loved one, I've seen it first hand," his voice even speaks as one that seemed experienced on the matter. Though his smile betrays what he says next. [Break][break]

"And it's not a pretty sight" and with that he's off.
