4 Insight + 2 survival
(3)(3)(1)(3)(3)(1) Shiva is staring right where Azurill pointed. She can't see anything though. Then Azurill looks confused - did the threat move?

Then Azurill goes flying as a mermaid's tail emerges from a different puddle and smacks the little mouse across the swamp!

Water Pulse
3 Dex +3 Fight + 2 Canalize
(2)(2)(1)(5)(6)(3)(3)(5)

(3)(5)(4)(3) Azurill takes 2 dmg 4/6hp -1 pain
Confuse: (4)(1)(1)

It took a moment for Shiva to even realize what has actually happened, but after the moment has gone, she manages to draw Azurill's Pokeball in a way too dramatic and swift movement to recall her blue mouse into safety before she'd fly off too far.

Next, something must have fallen into place somewhere in her mind. NONE treats her Pokemon like this and gets off scoldfree, in whatever way that scolding may be. Actually, she'd go icy-cold now and stop being compassionate.
...Not now though, as something did not slip her mind the short moment the 'threat' showed itself - there was definitely a light blue mermaid's tale, and Shiva does not believe that mermaids would reside in this swamp full of whispering hummocks and sturby trees. (As awesome as it'd be, honestly) Nope, that must have been a Pokemon... Smells like a future breeding partner for Spectral.

She just continued to stare at the puddle she saw that tail, considering and waiting, before she finally raised her voice. "Well, you're quite a clever little creature, are you? Playful, prefering to stay where you have home advantage, quite a graceful one if I'm guessing your species right and mischievous as it seems. You know what, I LIKE THAT cuz it reminds me on me! Well, you want to play, huh? WE CAN PLAY, IF YOU WANT!" Next, she drew that Iron Ball from bagpack that she's been carrying around all the time since the first visit of Ginger Town... How she got used to it's weight over time, she wasn't sure about. But she was sure about what she was doing when she winded up and threw that item directly into the puddle the Pokemon was seemingly residing in making this a way too dramatic thing. "FETCH, IF YOU CAN!"

Mechanics:
We'll try somethingelse than food here to lure this Pokemon to me! Current aim is getting Vapreon to show itself and at best being curious and wondering about this human paying a visit. If sinking an Iron Ball into the puddle doesn't impress Vaporeon, we'll move on to sink the bottle of purified water from the mountain tarn as well, as I'd almost bet money that a Vaporeon, being known to becoming one with water, would be curious about such pure water and where I got it from.
