Aaaawww...the fire's gone.
Eh. At least he had fun. Orthros is more than happy to come back to Nathan's side when the trainer whistles.
Nathan doesn't say anything...but he does smile.
RE: [Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole - Iron - 01-08-2018
Nathan sends out Yule the Skiddo. (2)
Shiva withdraws Comite and sends Pancham for his battle debut! (1) He looks a little bewildered, but he settles into a fighting stance like a champion!
RE: [Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole - PhantomUnderYourDesk - 01-08-2018
Shiva does carefully faintly smile as well, feeling relieved that she eventually defeated that Deltadog. She's looking better now, her mood stabilizes again to some degree as well, but now there is some insecurityand subtle pain in her whether she can do well with her noble panda. ...He himself seems confident though behind that bewildered look, so she'll just give it a try to see!
RE: [Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole - Dragonstrike - 01-08-2018
Which Nathan actually notices!
"...he'll do fine, Shiva. Now, I AM still going to try and win this if I can, but you've got this pretty well handled if you can remove Yule from this battle. Win or lose, no hard feelings, right?"

As Pancham settles into his fighting stance, the light of battle is rekindled in Shiva's eyes, too. She shouts for Pancham to use Bullet Punch, and leaps forward in excited synchronicity with him as he clashes with Yule!
Bullet Punch 1
(4)(1)(6)
(3)(4)(5) Yule takes 2 dmg 4/6hp.
Pancham's first real strike is a success! He smiles adorably.
Vine Whip 1
(5)(4)(5)(1)(4)
(3)(5)(5) Pancham takes 2 dmg. 4/6hp -1 pain. This only makes him commit harder!
Vine Whip 2
(6)(3)(4)(1)(6)
(1)(2)(6) Pancham takes 1 dmg 3/6hp -2 pain.
Not enough dice for Pancham's second move. Shiva still leaps with it in excitement, and realizes a little bit more about Brawling tactics as she moves with her Pokemon. She'll have to explore this if she wants to apply it in battles.
Vine Whip 3
(2)(3)(6)(1)
(1)(2)(1) Pancham grabs the incoming vine and takes only a mild stinging on his Iron Fists. The look in his eyes say this battle is not yet over!
RE: [Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole - Dragonstrike - 01-08-2018
Nathan actually laughs in delight at that showing!
"Yes! Perfect! Exactly what I like to see! You're doing spectacularly! Nothing like some good ol' fashioned close quarters combat, amiright?"
RE: [Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole - Iron - 01-08-2018
Yule is switched out for Princess, the female Combee! The only gender of Combee allowed in a Little Cup.
(6)
RE: [Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole - Dragonstrike - 01-08-2018
Zippy pops out too to cheer Princess on from the sidelines! He can't wait to see her battle! (Not counting Mega Pinsir, I believe this is Princess's first on-screen battle since Nathan's been using Zippy a lot more than her so far)
The happier atmosphere seems to be helping with easing Forthright a little.

Little Cup Practice Round 8
Pancham really puts the Iron into Iron Fist with another steel Bullet Punch.
Bullet Punch
(1)(4)(5)
(2)(4)(4) Combee takes 2 dmg 4/6hp -1 pain.
Gust 1
(6)(1)(3)(5)(2)(6)(5)(3)
(4)(2)(1) Attack from above after that bullet punch, Combee has a clear advantage, and her attacks use up most of Pancham's stamina very quickly. Pancham is out of the fight. But he is proud that he was able to get a shot in against not one but two Pokemon.
