"... ... ...Heart...?" *taking the free paw of her magical fox into her hand* There was clearly a tone between her voice that was scared of what he meant by a 'joining her in this battle'. "Where is that threat you mean...? Oh, hey, wait... Yena should help clearing this hellish haze a little more with her bioluminescence..."

Unlucky for Shiva, since JUST in the moment she called her butterwolfly out, the threat showed itself - the size and barbels cleary pointed to a Wishcash they've crossed path with... before she could say a thing or even give any order for an attack, Yena already leaped forward baring his teeth, very ready to sink them into a huge fish from the swamp! He let a small cloud of shield dust behind.


Accuracy Roll Bite1: 3 Dext + 2 Fight + 0 Brawl - 2 Actions = 3d6
Accuracy Roll Bite2: 3 Dext + 2 Fight + 0 Brawl - 3 Actions = 2d6
Damage Roll: 2 Strength + 2 Power of the move + 1 STAB =5d6
Additional notes: 3 CD to flinch this catfish.

Shield Dust prevents Yena from any effects of CD-Rolling. For example, from having his Accuracy reduced by Mud Bomb!


'Finally some good action' Heart said... Shiva was absolutely not sure whether this was a kind of action she appreciated.

[Dragonstrike]

Kiria only has one thing on his mind right now: Keep Nathan safe.  He's tired of being hit by poison attacks, but he'll continue fighting as long as he has to.  He'll work with whoever as long as they're doing the same!

His focus recentered now (Let's spend 12 exp to level Canalize to 3, shall we?), he launches Confusion after Confusion at these Poison types, always prepared to hide amongst his duplicates if damaging Poison moves are incoming.

Nathan's busy trying to get Swiftfire to calm down, so he's still not able to provide any battle orders.

Four Confusions and conditional evasions should Kirlia be hit by a damaging Poison move.  Evasion has a base accuracy of 11, Confusion now has a base accuracy of 10.

Whiscash Round 1

The water starts shaking, then the earth you stand on joins in! It's an earthquake!

Magnitude 1
Power: (4)
2 Dex + 3 Fight + 2 Canalize -2 actions = 5d6
(6)(6)(5)(2)(2)
3 Str + 4 power + 1 STAB -3 vit = 5d6
(6)(5)(4)(3)(4) Yena takes 4 dmg 2/6hp -2 pain. Viktor takes 3 dmg 3/6hp -2 pain because he resists ground.
Since this is an area attack and not a battlefield attack, it's possible to dodge.
Evasion: 6 dice -3 actions = 3 dice
(4)(2)(5) not enough to counter 3 successes.

Both Pokemon eat their berries. 3/6hp -2 pain and 4/6hp -1 pain respectively.

Bite 1
(4)
5 dice -4 vit = 1d6
(4) Whiscash takes 1 dmg 7/8hp
Flinch: (5)(4)(1)

Whiscash flops its tail and summons a muddy tsunami!

Muddy Water 2
7 dice -3 actions -2 actions = 2d6
(3)(3)
Both Pokemon manage to hide beneath the thick vegetation.

Leech Seed 2
7 dice -4 action -1 acc -1 pain = 1d6
(2) The seeds just plop in the water. Whiscash is too slipper for them to grip. Disgusting.

Bite 2
Not enough dice.

Confuse Ray 3
7 dice -5 action -1 pain
(6)
The giant fish is confused!

Whiscash Round 2

[Lord Windos]

The telepathic prod he shared with his child was a bit of a shock to Ventus, as he didn't expect their Telepathy to carry over such sensations/energy, but he quickly quelled the feeling, clench his hands into fists, and gave the battle against the duo of poisonous blobs his full and undivided attention. Worry about Psychic/mental pollution later, protect Nathan and Kirlia now! (Leveling up Brawl by 1 point for 12 XP!)

"My child, give a round of applause to Gulpin for their attempts to waylay both of your with Status Effect, then focus your efforts on Striking down that Swalot with all the force you can muster! If they either Pokémon tries to focus you down with their moves, react appropriately, and retreat to my side if you substain too much damage! Lock them down!!!" he said, receiving a affirimative warble for his blue demon as they readied to do what they knew best: harash the enemy team like no tomorrow! They will learn to fear the Wobbuffet species by the time this fight is over, yeah!

Order: Abaddon will use Encore on Gulpin to lock it into using Yawn, Poison Gas, and Stockpile, and will use Strike on Swallot to soften it up for Kirlia's Confusion assault. It will also continue being a wall for Poison moves for Kirlia so that they can attack unabbetted without being forced to dodge. If he substains enough damage to fall below half HP, he's retreating to Ven's side and being switched out for Michael. Let's make them blast off into the deep marsh!!!

Moves:

Encore
Accuracy: DEX (2) + Fight (3) + Allure (2) - 2 Actions = 5D6 Dice
Effect: Forces Gulpin to repeat his last round of moves

Strike
Accuracy: 8D6 - 3 Actions = 5D6
Damage: Most likely only 1 Damage Dice
Effect: None

[Spiritmon]

"Why I do even keep trying..." Heart facepalms himself about the reason why Viktor keeps miss Leech Seed. "Lets try a diferent aproach then. Viktor, use Feint Attack two times against that fish. Lets see he can handle that."

Acuracy Pool Feint Attack 1: Dexterity (3) + Fight (2) + Brawl (3) - Pain (1) - Actions (2) = 5d6 (The move says feint attack never miss so...)
Acuracy Pool Feint Attack 2: Dex (3) + Fight (2) + Brawl (3) - Pain (1) - Actions (3) = 4d6
Damage: Strengh (3) + Power of the move (2) = 5d6
Added effect: Never fail

(Is this calculation right Iron?)

[Lord Windos]

+Some sort of flashback to the evening of Day33+
@Lord Windos


Shiva returned to the camp in an exhausted, yet delightful state over the fact that she managed to obtain her real own Eeveelution, as well as her Ranger's cloak still decorated in stains of mud at the seams and splashes of water here and there.

The first thing she noticed when approaching was that Nathan was...not present...probably already in tent? The next thing was, very delightful to know, that she hadn't missed dinner yet! The third one was... Is that Pokemon ? She didn't recognize the species if it was... MUST SEE!

She stood around 1 metre apart from this new Pokemon, but kneed down to be on somewhat eye level with it. "What a pretty one this creature is!! It looks like a Grass Type...! Want some sweet-tasting dried berries? *careful offering it a handful of them* Is it another one from this region called 'Tandor'? It also looks a bit like a dragon... Now, who of you sweethearts does this Pokemon belong to?"

After examining his much beloved Lucifer for any signs of residual/lingering effects of the Poison that was in his system in the dry confines of the tent, Ventus returned them to their Pokeball for them to rest, and exited to pick up his hopefully non-poisonous meal for the night. Before he could do that, he spotted Shiva interacting with Lilith, eager and excited to get to know them judging by their emtions and offer of food to the green birdpent (Bird + Serpent = Birdpent!), causing him to smile sweetly and quietly chuckle to himself, before deciding to see how she (Lilith) reacts to his friend. He was a Pokémon Behaviorlogist/Sociologist, this was a completely unknown species to him (Besides the Legends/Lore Heart informed him about- he'll have to thank the man later for his Insight), and his dear friend was engaging with them; the perfect storm to establish a baseline for how a Quetzoral interacts with other humans!

(@Iron, you want to have Lilith react to Shiva's food offering?)

[Iron]

Lilith will eat any sweet food as long as she's not expected to do anything in return!

Dangit

Swalot Round 2

Abaddon and Gulpin both start clapping at the same time! They keep it up until Abaddon waddles up side by side to the Gulpin, still clapping, leaning over menacingly until they are face to face. Gulpin slowly stops clapping and starts yawning as if he doesn't care that he is being intimidated.

Encore 1
(2)(2)(2)(5)(3)
Gulpin is locked in!

Confusion 1
(3)(1)(2)(3)(3)(1) Miss.

Sludge Bomb 1 on Kirlia
8 canalize dice -1 pain -3 actions = 4d6
(4)(6)(1)(2)
Evasion2: 11 dice -5 actions (3)(4)(5)(2)(6)(6) Kirlia dodges any goo that comes his way after it encounters Abaddon.
4 Str + 3 power +1 stab = 8 dice -5 vit = 3d6, all of which are on Abaddon.
(3)(3)(3) No damage, no poison! The bulk of the attack splashes harmlessly off Abaddon, and the rest disintegrates an illusion!

Yawn 1
Not gonna bother rolling : ( Unless he should become confused.

Strike 2
(4)(3)(3)(5)(2)
(6) Swalot takes 1 dmg 6/10hp -1 pain

Spit up 2
(1)(1)(3) The turgid swampwater flows through Swalot, missing Abaddon and not even being forceful enough to deflate Swalot.

Poison Gas 2
Gulpin is kind of having a blast firing off all these pointless attacks, especially this one.

Confusion 3
10 dice - 6 actions =4d6
(4)(6)(1)(6)
(6)(3) Swalot takes 2 dmg 4/10hp -2 pain
Confusion: (4)

Spit up 3
(1)

Stockpile 3
Omnomnom

Confusion 4
(6)(6)(1)
(6)(2) 2/10hp
Confusion: (1)
Swalot is really getting angry now, but it seems he has no faster he can go.

Swalot Round 3

Confusion 1
(6)(6)(3)(5)(4)(6) Critical hit.
(2)(2)(6)(3) Swalot faints, still bloated. Water wheezes out of him in a slow steady blobbering noise.

Strike 1 on Swalot, who has been Stockpiled so long without the slightest release that the marsh gas inside is making him float slightly.
(2)(4)(2)(5)(2)(2)
(4) Gulpin takes 1 dmg 6/7hp, he has 4 vit

Confusion 2
(5)(5)(4)(5)(5) Another one!
(5)(3)(3)(1)(4) Gulpin takes 3 dmg 3/7hp -2 pain
(4)

Strike 2
(2)(6)(5)(2)(3)
(1)Abaddon feels like he's contributing.

Confusion 3 At this point, Gulpin is trying to flee. Your team is far faster since he has a dex of 1. If you prefer to spare him I'll cancel these next attacks but I assume Ventus wants to at least faint it.
(3)(1)(4)(1)

Confusion 4
(5)(4)(1)
(6)(5)(1) Gulpin faints

4XP to everyone in this fight! That went rather well for you, I think we can all agree.

Whiscash Round 2


When that earthquake came in, Shiva could not help but wrap her cloaked arms around the adorned neck of her magical fox and pull herself into a hug with him in an attempt to ease her initiate fear somewhat. His fur felt warm and soft and not drenched at all, his inner blaze must be drying out and moisture from the swamp haze.

Though, she still dared to follow this battle, especially since her butterwolfly is involved and way more brave than his Master is! He'll get through, will he? Encouragement won't hurt nevertheless... "You okay, Yena? I'm here... Now, BITE THAT FISH! Nevermind its size or your pain or anything, just leap forward and sink your teeth DEEP into the nearest spot... Heart, stop with attempting to seed this Wishcash, as I have a Pokemon that especially enjoys to steal and store energy from its foes!" Nighshade gets called out then in a hasty movement, bathing the scene in a white light for a few moments, before she immediately received orders to prevent her from becoming worried about why she has been summoned in such a swampy environment - are there bird Pokemon around? "Nightshade, seed your foe in a very quick movement, then... COME BACK TO ME!"


------------
How about we spend a Will Point here, to have Yena overcome any Pain Penalizations and perfom a single mighty Bite? I don't savour hording them, and Shiva's currently not in danger to faint from depowering herself due to giving too much in battle, so there we go!

Accuracy Roll Bite: 3 Dext + 2 Fight + 0 Brawl = 5d6, Crit Chance if Yena doesn't faint before
Damage Roll: Still 2 Strength + 2 Power of the move + 1 STAB = 5 d6
Additional notes: 3 CD to flinch the foe.


As for Cherubi... This is a battle against a wild Pokemon, so none should stop me from being in-chara mischievous and leech seed Wishcash this Round, then call Nightshade back to stay with her and Braixen at the end of the Round = out of the range of any attacks while Leech Seed nevertheless constantly pesters the foe? Actually permitted in a League Battle!

Accuracy Roll Leech Seed: 3 Dext + 2 Fight + 3 Channel - 1 reduced Accuracy = 7d6
Effect: 1 dice of damage is rolled at the end of each Round, if successfull deals 1 damage on foe and heals 1 hp on my Pokemon.
Additional notes: If this Seeding fails, I'll blame it on the dice.

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Lilith will eat any sweet food as long as she's not expected to do anything in return!

"Hehehehe... You've got quite a sweet tooth, don't you?" 'What a weird trait for a Grass Type to have what looks like feathers', Shiva thought as she just watched this new Pokemon dig in to her offer - not even a shy creature it seems!

She still doesn't know who of the party this Pokemon belongs to however and looks out were her other travel companions are to find out.
