[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Dragonstrike]

Wherever Nathan currently, is Shiva will carefully and a bit meekly approach him and ask for that battle held at Atheneum's courtyard - right in front of The Gauntlet, if Celebi allowes.

Conditions

2vs2, my Pokemon of choice a Braixen and Gothitelle. No healing items, and no fainting please. No outright steamrolling of the opponent either, the intention is to help Braixen. Trying to win anyway is of course allowed!

Hmmm...well, Marco's originally from Cress, so I guess it'll be on his mom's side in that case.

---------------------------------------------

Oh, so we're being open about our pokemon choices?  Okay then!

At first, Nathan gets a lot more nervous and uncertain when Shiva approaches...something which Kirlia mirrors.  Charmeleon's nearby as well, seemingly more concerned with examining the red and orange orb he's now holding.

When it turns out to be a battle request...Nathan looks at Kirlia and Charmeleon...

Charmeleon looks like he wouldn't mind a little action.  Kirlia doesn't look like he wants to battle, but...

"...well, alright then.  A little quick practice couldn't hurt.  Give me a sec, though. I'll meet you out there in a few minutes."

Nathan will be using Charmeleon and Kirlia (which kinda parallels Braixen and Gothitelle in a way).  Let's see some initiatives!
