Gust
(3)(3)(3)(5)(5)(5)(6)(3)
Combee expertly aims a gust of wind at the blob, or at the branch holding it. Whoosh! It comes loose and falls to the ground. The tree curls that branch in just slightly, still oozing a little pink sap. Tandal's eyes light up.

"Ligno!"

The big pink blob lands, splashes flat, and pulls itself upright. A face appears, two tiny black eyes and a nondescript smile. Then it shrinks, hardens, and takes to the air with a steely glint - it has become a Magnemite!

Thunder Shock 1
3 Dex + 1 Fight + 1 -2 actions
(2)(6)(3)
Evasion: (6)(4)(5)(5)(6)(2) Critical evade. Combee nimbly zips out of the way. He's even showing off a bit for Princess, how little he cares about an electric attack.

Thunder Shock 2
(4)(6)
Evasion: (3)(2)(1)(5)(4) Again the bee Pokemon evades. This time he's expecting it, so it's more methodical, but Princess is still pleased with her servant (never mind that he's following Nathan's commands, not hers).

Then the strangest thing yet happens. The trunk of the enigmatic tree splits open horizontally, revealing a line of pink. Two shingles shunt aside, revealing pink dots. A face. It's grinning, for now...

Hmmm...wait a second...

"Great job, Zippy.  Swiftfire, be ready to use Ember a few times if the attack continues.  Well, seems we might have some Ditto in the area, Tandal.  Or something similar, at any rate."
