Spoiler

14Xp.


Mawile: (5) + 7 = 12
Seismitoad: (2) + 4 Dex + 5 Survival = 11, so close


Seismitoad Round 1

-1 offense for Seismitoad
I didn't notice this rule before, but it's clear as day:


Iron Defense 1
(3)(5)(5)(5)(3)(6)
+2 Def for Mawile Now sitting at 8 defense!

Seismitoad's fingers contort with an audible snapping noise. The flesh peels back, revealing finger bones shattered into sharp spikes! Ghostly auras swirl around the makeshift claws.

Shadow Claw 1
(6)(3)(5)(5)(2)(2) (6)(2)(1) Critical hit.
5* Str + 3 power +2 Crit -8 vit = 2d6
(3)(5) The shadowy claws pass through a portion of Mawile's defenses. Mawile takes 1 dmg

Play Rough 2
(3)(5)(2)(3)(6)
(6)(2)(1)(5)(2) Seismitoad takes 2 dmg 8/10hp -1 pain. He has +1 base HP and 4 vit.
-1 Str for Seismitoad, now at 4 Str.

Mud Shot 2
(5)(4)(1)(5)(2)(2)
4 Str +2 power +1 stab -8 vit
(1)
-1 Dex for Mawile. Seismitoad now goes first.

Shadow Claw 3
(5)(4)(3)(2)(3) Here's where Seismitoad's Surprise comes into play! He gets through those defenses just a little better than he ought to, a minimum of 2 dice when using Shadow Claw.
(4)(1)  Mawile takes 1 dmg -1 pain.

Faint Attack 3
(4)(1)
(3)(6)(1) Seismitoad takes 1 dmg 7/10hp -1 pain

Faint Attack 4
(1) It hits anyway.
(2)(6)(4) Seismitoad takes 2 dmg 5/10hp -2 pain.

(Mawhile would actually have take 1 Damage from Mudshot, since she's a Steel/Fairy type. Additionally, its a 1D6 Chance Dice to lower STR by 1, so unless you rolled for it but didn't add the result, the toad's offenses may or may not be crippled!)

Since Poli Seismitoad has full HP at the start of the Round but their's no mention of the offer, I assume they were at least friendly and agreeable enough to be treated, but not so much to agree with becoming Terra's partner automatically post rescue and after their battle. In which case, he's completely understanding and accepting about that, but makes it clear he still wants to try and do good by them by adding them to his team. He did rescue them from mortal peril, and naturally want to make sure continue a long time afterwards, so what better way of doing that than just catching and taking good care of them?

That, and the sagely monk is just plain impressed with the bulbous bullfrog for it surviving Giga Whiscash, so he's not letting them walk away so easily if he can add such a hardy Pokemon to his team! 

Seeing it pull off what appeared to be Shadow Claw and seeing it seemingly bypass his ferocious fae's titanic Defenses causes him to raise his eyebrows in interest, before nodding to himself and sound off his next orders.

"Pixie, try to surprise Big Toad to......lower their guard, but don't hurt them too much. They have bad time already, so we don't need to be too rough on them."

Orders: Have Pixie use Astonish on Seismitoad 3 times, in the hopes of Flinching it and being merciful with the Damage more than anything else. Meanwhile, Terra will be throwing Safari Balls to catch the warty toad, ideally when its Flinched, but at anytime really. If the frog forfeits from the match, though, then he'll call of Pixie, and again offer it the chance to join his team, with the added offer of telling them he'll feed them whatever they want (I assume its a carnivorous, since all toads are). Let's see if Terra adds another frog to his growing collection of Water types!

Move

Accuracy: *6D6 Base Dice (Irritated with it being Stealth Pool instead of Brawl, but thems the breaks.....) - 1 Pain - 2 Actions = 3/2D6 Dice
