Reiner rolls his eyes, but there's still a smile on his face. Yup, as expected, Taylor's quick to get super energized whenever her pokemon manage to triumph over a tough opponent (you can mark that down as a quirk that Reiner finds amusing about Taylor). "Hehehehe. Just like old times indeed. Well, not quite, given that Kingdra has a whole host of new tricks, but it's good to know some things haven't changed. Shame Jeff isn't gonna get to show off to Kingdra in this battle, though. Not sure if I should just chalk that loss up to bad luck or her unfamiliarity with all the new strategies she was trying to use, to be honest. Ah well. Far as I can tell, she's not super mad about it, so...phew. Kinda strange, though...usually, she'd be infuriated by getting humiliated like that...not that I think she would have taken it out on anyone in this instance since it was Lucy who beat her, but...hmmm..."
Reiner looks thoughtful for a sec. Then remembers that Taylor asked about that strange Dragon Rush.
"...oh, right, that Dragon Rush...er...actually, I coulda sworn that Kingdra didn't know that move. That's the first time I've seen her use that. Let me check her summary real quick..."
*recalls Kingdra to her pokeball*
*pulls up summary*
*looks through it carefully*
*looks surprised*
"...huh...says here that she knows...Dragon Rush EX...must have learned it just now, because I 100% know that she definitely didn't know that move an hour ago..."
*shrug*
He puts Kingdra's pokeball away for now, then pulls out a Great Ball.
"Alright, time to do a little cleanup. You remember how I used to talk about Inari and my mother's research all the time, I'm sure. Well, it finally paid off. And my mother just so happened to be kind enough to share the results with me. May I introduce to you..."
Reiner sends the Great Ball spinning onto the battlefield. The form that emerges is sleek. Low to the ground. Four-legged. All expected from an Eeveelution, of course.
But then the details start to become clearer. As the pokeball's light fades, the pitch back scales become visible instead of the characteristic fur of the other eeveelutions. Long, sharp claws adorn each foot. The tail is long and thin. The eeveelution's ears lay flat as she snarls, ready for battle.
"...Ridia, the Savage Wyvreon! Over two decades of research have gone into this, and I'm happy to say that the results were more than worth the wait. Care to help me test out her new strength?" *chuckles* "Not that I think Ridia is going to give ya much choice in the matter, now that I've released her."
Reiner makes double sure to get Poe back out of his pokeball as well (cuz need to make absoultely sure that Ridia's Disobedience is lowered to 3)
"Ready to cheer your sis on from the sidelines, Poe? It's time for her first battle as a Wyvreon! Ridia, time for a little cleanup! Dear old Lucy here just bested Kingdra, but only just barely."
Ridia assess the situation, noticing that that the Dragon in front of her definitely looks like she's on her last legs, and is crackling with electricity, the booming Thunderstorm only augmenting that...but also being centered around said Dragon as well.
She snarls again in response to Reiner's orders, and before Lucy has a chance to blink or realize what's about to happen...
Extreme Speed 1-3! (just in case the first doesn't manage to KO Lucy)
Acc: 4 + 5 + 3* - 3/4/5 = 9/8/7 D6
Dmg: 3 + 5* + 1 Tough Claws - 3 Defense = 6 D6
Eff: +2 Priority! Initiative rolls can't save you now, Lucy!
Note: Ignores effects that would reduce the move's damage/hit chances since E-Speed is a contact move!
And once Lucy's been KOed, Ridia holds a little celebration of her own, flaunting and reveling in her newfound, fully draconic power. Yes, this is exactly the kind of evolution she'd been waiting for her entire life! It feels so good to be able to crush her opponents with her mighty attacks!
Dragon Dance 2/3 (if/once Lucy's been KOed)
Acc: 4 + 5 + 0 - 4/5 = 5/4 D6
Eff: +1 Str and Dex!
And I imagine Poe's probably cheering her on with all his might!
