"Braixen, use your inner flame for an Ember!"
Ember 1

(5)(4)(2)(6) Tepig takes 2 dmg 4/6hp -1 pain.

"Cottonee, Mega Drain!"

Cottonee glows brightly green, much brighter than expected!

Giga Drain 1, holding back
(5)(5)(5)(4)(6) And her first time using this new move is a great success!
(4)(5)(2)(4)(4)(3)(4) Crawdaunt takes 3 dmg and is out of the fight.
Sinkhole is watching closely - that move was extremely close to knocking his Pokemon out.
Cottonee gains 1 hp 5/6hp

Ember 2 on Tepig

Shiva has to switch in Marill. Sinkhole switches in Hippopotas as his final Pokemon. It's 2v1.
Hippopotas: (4)

"I think you have this one in the bag, so I guess I won't make the bet with you I was going to propose. I need to alter it a little. If you can defeat Hippopotas without a scratch on either of your Pokemon, I'll give back the Apricorn and you can ask a favor of me. But if Hippopotas lays a hand on your Pokemon (Just 1 HP to either), you have to go on a date with me to get the Apricorn back. You'll get the $800 either way. What do you say, pretty lady?"
