Karen sighs, and almost audibly rolls her eyes. "Lemme try something and if it fails, then we do things your way."
Karen then calmly addresses the two Rock Pokemon; "All we want are a couple rocks for Rolycoly here, and that shiny thing. Let us have those things and you can have the rocks that are left."
Mechanics: Karen tries to negotiate getting the shiny object (Her barrette perhaps?) and 2 minimum rocks for Rolycoly to nosh on. If the negotiations fail:
Regardless of initiatives, Karen will start with Disarming Voice
Disarming Voice
Accuracy: Insight (2)+ Contest (2)+ Allure (1)=5D6
Damage: Special (2)+STAB(1)+2= 5D6
Notes: Sound-Based; Never FailPonyta rolls his eyes. "Riiiiiight. We'll see how well that works out for you. Well, go on. Talk to the wild pokemon, see where it gets you."
Karen does so, and...

Wild Pokemon Will

The Pupitar and Lunatone look at each other briefly, then at Karen and Rolycoly. They hesitate for a moment, but they don't appear to be convinced either.
Ponyta isn't convinced either. "Alright, it's not working. Looks like we're doing this my way. Blitzle, you focus on that Lunatone. Mudbray, we're taking on Pupitar."
Dunes Rocks Initiatives
Ponyta: (5)+6 = 11
Blitzle: (4)+5 = 9
Lunatone: (5)+4 = 9
Mudbray: (5)+4 = 9
Rolycoly: (4)+4 = 8
Pupitar: (3)+4 = 7
Karen: (3)+3 = 6

Ponyta immediately lashes out with a hoof in an attempt to stagger the Rock type!

The moon pokemon, despite moving more sluggishly, manages to blindside the fire horse with a thrown rock. "Gah! Blitzle, I thought you were taking care of that Lunatone?!"
"Ack! Sorry! Just give me a moment!"
Meanwhile, Mudbray charges at Pupitar, her own hooves ready to deliver a one-two combo!
Double Kick 1 and 2 on Pupitar
2 Dex + 2 Fight + 2 Brawl - 2/4 Actions = 4/2d6

(5)(5)(1)(5) Lunatone takes 2 damage and faints!
Ponyta's Dex increases by 1!
Karen and Rolycoly get 4 exp.
With both wild pokemon defeated, everyone's able to take a breather. Ponyta doesn't seem to be particularly pleased with Blitzle's performance.
"What was that, Blitzle? Seriously, you can't stop a simple Rock Throw?"
"Hey, I tried, okay? I thought my Thunder Wave was going to be more effective than that."
Mudbray tries to mediate.
"Do you two really need to be fighting over this again? We're a team, right?"
While Team Gallop is having their little squabble, Karen and Rolycoly have had some time to investigate the pile of rocks. They find 2 Gold Bars and Rolycoly can have his fill of Delicious Rocks and optionally take 1 unit of them to go (both take up 1 inventory slot each).
Karen patiently waits for Team Gallop to finish bickering then approaches them once they are through. "Um, you guys done?" As she gets ready to go to the next room, she slips Team Gallop 1 of the two gold bars. "Figure it'd be fair if you got part of these spoils." (how magnanimous.)
