Nathan sends out Shinx. (5)
Spira sends out Luna the Drifloon. (2)

Luna is a little worried going up against the Electric lion, but Spira encourages her saying, "Don't worry, we can handle this, just do your best."

Nathan looks thoughtful.  "...well, I can't say I was expecting you to switch, Spira.  I suppose this could still work in my favor, though...however..."

Given how reluctant that Shinx looks to battle, it should be clear to Spira that the little electric lion cub's Ability is Rivalry, not Intimidate.  Shinx is looking back at Nathan as if to say 'Do you really want me to fight that pokemon?'

Nathan simply nods back to Shinx, who subsequently sighs and gets ready for battle.  Fiiine, he'll do it.  He doesn't really want to, but he will.  At least he can take comfort in the fact that he has a type advantage this time...

"...well, let's just see what happens.  His Ability might be hindering him instead of helping, but I think that's something we can work around."
