Nathan is positive this is the legendary strength move though.
"Wow...that's...impressive..."
Hmmm...well, the implications of this revelation are certainly something else, aren't they?
"Well, it's great to have ya on board, Ray. Â Looking forward to seeing ya dazzle your opponents in the future."
And there ya have it! Â
Nathan's going going to keep Ray the P-Bulba. Â He'll have to go catch some Undersized Unown for Laurelin to get that Claw Fossil revived, but he kinda wanted to go check that cave out anyways for multiple reasons.

Tanuki sends out one of her Zigzagoon! This one has extra long claws, which it immediately uses to run straight up one of the tubes.
(2) + 8 = 10, Vaporeon still goes first.
(Oh... You're right, I forgot that a Dext-check comes before comparing base speed.)
A hint of suprise washes over the fae enthusiast's expression as it Tanuki's last Pokemon has been revealed. If being honest, she might have expected an evolved or tanky Pokemon or so to counter her Vaporeon, but that thought gets diminished rather quickly when remembering that Zigzagoon were her speciality. Shiva watches how it nimbly runs up one of the tube, tring to figure out what hidden power lies beneath its bristly fur. These long claws give her an ominous feeling.
She called out to Vaporeon, the waterly Eeveelution responds by strengthening her posture - she too was carefully observing the movements and antics of her furry foe. "Alright, Vaporeon... Up with you please, follow Zigzagoon to the tubes. When you've got it, aim for its paws, try to smack it down to the ground again, give it one more try if they evade your blow. Drench 'em in water, give them a cleaning - but if your prey hides within the tubes, flood them to force it out. Understood?" *eager chirp from Vaporeon as she leaped onto one of the tube as well* "Great, let us do well in this showdown! Ah, and that Berry I gave you is yours, rather eat it up before it gets stolen."
A bit of sentimentality hit Shiva pon the thought that she'll have to faint that cute Zigzagoon from Tanuki's side - shaking her head once however, she tries not to overthink that but instead remind herself that this was a Gym Battle, that healing is within reach, and how far she has gotten already. Her waterly Eeveelution against the smol curious racoon, she's excited to see how things develop! Seems to not have lost the fun she's taking in this battle.
---------------------------
Vaporeon's fresh and at 6*Vitality, powered by Aqua Ring and going first.
Accuracy Roll heartfelt Rock Smash 1: 3 Dext + 2 Fight + 2 Brawl - 4 Actions = 3d6
Damage Roll: 3 Strength + 4 power of the move, no STAB = 7d6 + 1 autodamage due to SE!
Additional notes: 5 CD to lower Zigzagoon's Defense by 1, our goal is it to bring the racoon down to the ground again with this blow.
Would falling damage be a thing in that case?
Repeat Rock Smash as a second Action if it fails or Zigzagoon evades. If it lands, continue with 3 Water Pulses - if Zigzagoon attempts to seek cover within the tubes though, use one Action to flood them and force Zigzagoon out again.
Accuracy Roll Water Pulse 2, 3 and 4: 3 Dext + 2 Fight + 4 Channel - 5 Actions = 4d6, 3d6 and 2d6 for the following Actions respectively.
Damage Roll: 3 Strength + 2 power of the move + 1 STAB = 6d6, neutral damage
Additional notes: Smells like wet racoon. 3 CD to confuse the poor being.
Vaporeon's having a Sitrus Berry hidden at her, she's ordered to consume it when pain becomes a thing ( = at -2). However, Zigzagoon may know Covet, so if it attempts to steal the Berry - Vaporeon will consume it right away to prevent Zigzagoon from getting it. Can I do that, is that feasible?

P-Bulbasaur is actually very calm right now, once captured. He's acting a little proud, like Quetzoral did. He quickly clambers up onto something high, like a bed, and looks slightly downward at you all. Still calm. When either one of you gazes back, he opens up his geode for your viewing pleasure.Â
2XP for each Pokemon and trainer.
"Ooooh…...pretty."
Needless to say, Terra is dazzled and captivated by the natural beauty of Rays crystals. He's also a lot more relaxed and like his regular old self now, as the Grassy Gemstone has more or less proven itself a non-threat, and proved to be a nice distraction from the conversation that happen moments prior.
The rugged wanderer pulls out a marshmallow, and holds it out for the P-Bulba. .Â
"Here. A sweet treat, if you want it Ray."
Might as well start off on the right foot with it by gifting it some food! It ain't his Pokémon, but that doesn't mean he can't be friends with it too!
You could only eat the berry pre-emptively if Covet were to miss the first time. The thing to do is to put an Evade command there.
Gym Leader Tanuki vs Shiva Round 9
Vaporeon quickly smacks Zigzagoon back down to the ground.

(6)(1)(4)
(2)(2)(3)(4)
Zigzagoon takes 2 dmg 5/7hp
CD: (1)(4)(2)(4)(6)
-1 Def for Zigzagoon!
Tanuki is whispering to Zigzagoon, so the crowd can't hear. Shiva's incredible insight lets her hear it though.
"We won't last long against that Legendary move! Trust to Super Luck! All for One!"
Fury Swipes 1-5
14* Brawl dice, -1 acc, -5 actions, -1 pain = 6d6>
(4)(4)(2)(3)(3)(2) = hit
(5)(4)(1)(3)(3) = hit
(4)(5)(1)(6) Super Luck + Razor = critical hit!
(6)(5)(4) = critical hit
(1)(3) = miss
4* Str + 1 power + 1 STAB +2 crit =2d6 or 1d6
(5)(3), (5)(2), (5), (4)
Vaporeon takes 4 dmg 4/8hp -2 pain.
Those long claws sink deep into that Acid Armor and barely penetrate to the flesh beneath, but there are enough attacks that it pains Vaporeon! Who promptly eats her berry. 7/8hp
That would have been the end of Vaporeon without Acid Armor!
Water Pulse 2
(6)(1)(3)(4)
(6)(4)(4)(4)
Zigzagoon takes 4 dmg 1/7hp -3 pain
CD: (4)(3)(2)
Water Pulse 3
(3)(3)(3) Miss! Even without Actions, speedy Zigzagoon is still fast enough to dodge attacks that aren't aimed with perfection.
Water Pulse 4
(6)(4)
(1)(1)(5)(4) Silence, then cheers from the few people in the crowd! Tanuki nods her head to you as her raccoon faints. She goes and scoops him up. "That toughness your Vaporeon displayed is amazing! :0 As a Normal-type Gym Leader, I like to surprise people with unusual moves and abilities on common, underrated Pokemon. Ziggy is a cute one, but he gets really vicious during battles! Many people just crumble away at his onslaught. And of course I have several of them, 'cause they're my favorite!"
"So now you earn $4000, a drink, a rare Leftovers, and the Boulangerite Badge!" +0.5 Dex. "It emanates an aura to make your Pokemon speedier!"

Ray nabs it gracefully with his tongue. He begins looking around the room from his perch, nodding approvingly at whatever he arbitrarily finds interesting.

While Terra is interacting with Ray, Nathan discreetly heads over to Gallade to talk to him.
"...hey, uh...did you feel anything...strange yesterday, Gallade? Â Right before I came to pick you up at the training room."

Terra smiled and gave the regal rimstone a nod, before he slowly rises up and out of his chair, turning to Nathan as he does so.
"Story's over, so heading to Training Room now. Going to try.....discipline my Duskull, before Shiva comes back and starts meeting. *Pause* Unless you have something else to talk about?"
If Nathan has nothing to say, he'll head right over there!
With all these events ending, Heart was finishing his preparations for his meeting with Shiva and Nathan. And maybe Terra too if he want to go together. "Whoosh. Finally have finish. I hope Shiva and Nathan dont mind."
Heart then takes his phone and send a message to everyone!
, ,
Hey everyone! Heart here. Just to ask how you guys are doing? Any news to tell? I dont have much to say: I strengh my bonds with Alphonse, my Hypno, and caugh a nice Ambipom. With some nice strong moves. The Silk Scarf gonna be useful later. And teach a new strong Dragon Move for Koa, Dragon Claw!
Also Shiva, I hope you dont mind I have make something to light the mood later Shiva. I prepare some snacks since I suspect its gonna be serious. I make Mind Tea Punch. Good thing to make someone relax and heal the stress. And some Salad Fruits with cream. Nothing to much fancy, just enough to be a light dinner when we meet. If you want join Terra, you should come. There is much food for everyone! Human and Pokemon.

The simple monk received the message, and unlike the other times, actually respond to it!:
'Hello. Tired, but good. Don't have news. Good job catching....Ambipom? What Pokémon is that? Is it a Normal type? Silk Scarf works well on them, but I am only.....guessing.
Will come to meeting. Try your meals too, and share them with my Pokémon if they want. Thank you, Heart.'
(Thanks to the Sitrus Berry and Aqua Ring [not Veil] Vaporeon's also back at full HP, cool.)
With a content gaze and expression Shiva watched as her waterly Eeveelution successfully ended Ziggy's acrobatics and antics up on the tubes with a smashing tail-blow, only to one moment later having to avert her gaze when it sought revenge by slashing her repeatedly. A heartfelt chomp into the given Berry though Vaporeon was all fine again, and swiftly punished the racoon by soaking its fur.
However, Shiva didn't paid that much attention to it as she should, she seemed a little absent-minded when watching the two battlers. The reason for this was what her sensitive senses picked up from Tanuki's side.... Super Luck. SUPER LUCK ABILITY - on a ZIGZAGOON!! Out of respect she didn't pried or showed in any means that she heard what has been whispered, but it's obvious that she's incredibly IMPRESSED. Such a useful and semi-rare Ability on such a common Pokemon - HOW?! She'd give so much to know... But... Remembering what she bought yesterday at Violet Tent, a hopeful and sly smile formed on her expression. She's 50%ly more looking forward to trying that out now. ^o^
The moment the crowd began to cheer however brought her back to the current planet, and after flinching a little she realized WHY they cheered - Tanuki picking up a defeated pointy furball while Vaporeon let out a confident huffing noise before turning tail and walk back to her Master were enough to understand.
It felt incredibly surreal to Shiva. So weird, it was almost hard to believe that she has made it against the excellent Trainer and Leader dear Tanuki was... But when Vaporeon gave her a smile of 'Master! We made it!! I MADE IT!!! You proud of me?~', everything became real within a second, the next second Vaporeon found herself being picked up and hugged tenderly and thankfully, how Aqua Ring may moisten her clothes she didn't care now. "Of course I'm proud of you! My, what would I be without you... Thank you. Just thanks you..." Vaporeon purred a little on the fond strokes over her headfins and let her head rest on her shoulder. <3
When accepting the Gym Badge among the other things (Leftovers are immediately given to Vaporeon who curiously investigated the bag) and turning it a little in her hands, Shiva felt....lighter all of a sudden. More light-footed, to be specific. She was almost sure that a small gust of wind ran through her hair for a second that came from that badge... "I guess I can feel that aura you mean, Tanuki", she told her with a smile, "It feels great. ^^" She'll probably notice the effects soon, but she's sure that her fledging Trainer skills will benefit from it decently. (She's now sporting 4 Dexterity. Yay!)
Accepting the drink, the fae enthusiast slumbs into the nearest seat, she's definitely up to spend a few more minutes here with Tanuki and here within her Gym if allowed to take a short breather. Oh, and to stroke more Zigzagoon until she manages to obtain her own of course! "That was a fine battle, Tanuki...." she tells her with an appreciating smile, "So balanced, one moment I was at advantage, the next yu turned things around again! I much enjoyed it. C: I, eh, hope you did too... And..."Â She comes a little closer. "Do you tell me now how you became so strong to even become a Gym Leader of that calibre? Were roughly the same age, after all... But you're so much more skillful!"
------------------
Mechanics:
Just a bit of interacting before we pick up Dizzy and start on our Second Encounter. You people are also busy with disciplinary actions for Duskull/questioning Gallade, I'm in no hurry to meet up.
