Nathan shrugs, a little too down to correct Heart calling him Nate.  He's absentmindedly fiddling with his new Mutios Necklace.

"Oh, Heart...nothing much.  Just...thinking, that's all..."

Calam doesn't 'try' anything.  Just nods at the newcomers.  Kirlia and Nathan are both rather melancholy right now...

Heart couldnt do not know how to help Nathan. "Well...I was thinking Nathan...we have been travel for a time and I...well, I would like to have a battle with you. Just to see if I strong enough to help you guys beat that Claydoll. If you want of course." Heart think this might reduce that gloomy atmosphere.

Kirlia perks up slightly, though Nathan doesn't seem to change much on the outside...he does stop fiddling with his necklace as soon as the challenge is issued, though...

"...test your strength, huh?  Heh...well, we are technically out of the swamp...alright.  I'm not holding back, though.  And no fainting, and no items.  We have better things to do than exhaust each other and our supplies.  A full on 6v6 single battle sound good?  Or would you prefer a Double?"

Mack Round 6

Mack Punch
(3)(2)(6)(4)(2)
(5)(6)(5) With blinding speed, your Mack levels your opponent's Mack to the floor!

Each of your Macks gain 5XP!

Mack looks disappointed, but doesn't say much for once.

The battle conclude decidedly in the mushroom's of champeon's favor, Ventus boldy strides forward towards them and gives them a elated high five for their massive contribution in triumphing against Mack, while Lucifer hops onto his brother's shoulder to give them a pat on the back for a job well done overall! Together, both of them were able to plow the hiker's Pokémon into the dirt, even if he was the one that suffered the worst battle injuries! Once post battle celebrations were conclude, Michael was returned to his Pokeball, and the researcher meet up with Mack to collect his wager with a chipper smile on his face. "Fantastic match, Mack! I never expect a Fighting type like Machamp to work over Lucifer with their Cross Chop like that, but it goes to show how finely trained they are. Kabuto too did admirably in their fight, though not to the same extent sadly. Tell me, how did you manage to acquire them, anyway? Fossil Pokémon are quite hard to obtain unless you are in the field of archeology or are a researcher, so I find myself curious....."

Order: Chat up Mack a bit, then head over to the Bonfire to check out what is happening and wait around for Shiva. During that time he'll have Lilith and Michael out with him, and also be chatting with the locals on how to proper do a heart song/'Skial' to summon the Southern Wind Incarnate. Music time is fast approaching, guys....!

"It'd snow you to know what all you can flog from the bog, Mack! This budgie muddy was throwing a sickie in the cold dirt, probably tuckered away for spell upon spell. I've walked all about Creshire, Mack. It happens. Old things, way beneath the ground, everywhere."

[Lord Windos]

"It'd snow you to know what all you can flog from the bog, Mack! This budgie muddy was throwing a sickie in the cold dirt, probably tuckered away for spell upon spell. I've walked all about Creshire, Mack. It happens. Old things, way beneath the ground, everywhere."

"Interesting.....I realized that Cheshire hide all sorts of wonders above and below the earth, but I didn't expect an abundance of fossils to be one of them! Do you perhaps know how to spot locations were one might be buried, or know of any location in Cheshire known for being rich in Fossils? I'm also rather curious as to know what are the local landmarks and significant locations in the Hog Potateo area, especially the Natural Perserve as I have business their to conduct, so any information you have regarding this would be most appreciated!"

At those words, Shiva crossed her arms and blatantly looked away. "Hmpf, you where practically staring at me while I've been just throwing a casual glance over what you people are actually doing there with the generator!"

She looked back though to see what kind of Pokemon that guy whose name she'll likely had forgotten already was sending out, and immediately she was the one who kept her gaze fixated a little longer: Whoahw, trying out Marill's new STAB-move here against these two wasn't much of a smart idea, and Psychic cat vs Psychic...palmtree felt interesting, at the very last. Both Kyuu and Marill where already itching to do something, or at least Marill was due to what Shiva picked up from her blue mouse... She felt a little bad that while she now had increased power, she didn't know any Fairy Type moves. Hopefully in the future she will to show those dragons and CO.

"Okay, ehm... " Concentration!!! *cough* "Marill, what we have here are foes that don't care about your increased power of Water Type moves! But fret not, you'll have your chance. Promised. Please concerate on aiding your battle partner, just like you already did efore evolution." "Kyuu, you probably know what to dowithing your first Round, don't you? Combine that with showing that you mean business via leering the palmtree to the ground, then let your mighty psychic powers hit it, and don't be put off if it's not as strong as you thought. Also, what was your name again... Sinkhole, or such? Please DON'T use any lethal moves in case your Pokemon have it, alright? That'd be...mean." :C


-----------------
Accuracy Helping Hand 1: 3 Dext + 2 Fight + still 1 Perform - 2 Actions = 4d6
Accuracy Helping Hand 1: 3 Dext + 2 Fight + still 1 Perform - 3 Actions = 3d6
Effect: Adds two dice on Accuracy and Damage Rool of the one the move's targeted at. That's obviously the Espurr beside her.
Additional notes: HH has +5 Priority, so blinding speed for the blue mouse here!


Accuracy Fake Out on Exeggutor: 3 Dext + 2 Fight + 0 Brawl + 2 HH - 3 Actions = 4d6

Damage Roll: 3 Strength + 2 power of the move, no STAB = 5d6
Additional notes: +1 Priority, autoflinches at success.


Accuracy Leer: 3 Dext +2 Fight + yet 0 Intimidate + 2 HH - 4 Actions = 3d6
Effect: Lowers the NPC's Vitality by 1.
Additional notes: It's amusing to imagine an Espurr pouncing at an Exeggutore that's n-times bigger then he is without fear and even glaring at him before backing off.

Accuracy Confusion again on Exeggutor: 3 Dext + 2 Fight + 3 Channel - 5 Actions = 3 d6
Damage Roll: 3 Strenght + 2 Power of the move + 1 STAB = 6d6, but -1 damage due to being NE
Additional notes: 1 CD to confuse the foe.


Any Dark Type, nor any Water Type attack Crawdaunt does have will not be very effective towards Marill.
And Psychic Type attack will not be very effective on Kyuu either.

"Here in the bog, Mack. More layers than anywhere. The Preserve is crook, can't rip at all. Too many divvies. Swamp's just bush, Mack. Long way from anywhere or anything."

[Lord Windos]

"Here in the bog, Mack. More layers than anywhere. The Preserve is crook, can't rip at all. Too many divvies. Swamp's just bush, Mack. Long way from anywhere or anything."

"Ah, that would make since, since swamps have the right conditions to create a multitude of Fossils should a Pokémon's remains get sufficiently covered in the muck! Hmm....well, I have one last question before I leave you to your own devices: do you happen to know or heard of a place known as 'The Ends of The Earth' from your travels through Cheshire. My friends and I are searching for the location, and we came here to Arrowroot specifically to gather any leads, so if you have anymore info could you please enlighten me?"

"For me its okay. 6x6 its okay for me. Double would be cool, that way we can use the full strengh of our teams. And I agree about no use items. I not holding back too Nathan, so I hope you ready." Heart was quite eager to begin the battle.

But before the battle Heart make a quick change in his team. He gave Nidorino to hold Poison barb to help increase the power of poison moves and the training Clawn for Koa to be hold. He teach too Aron Rock Tomb to increase his arsenal and he was ready to begin the battle and change Nidorino for Aron. If he going to fight Nathan, he will going to fight with everything.

"For me its okay. 6x6 its okay for me. Double would be cool, that way we can use the full strengh of our teams. And I agree about no use items. I not holding back too Nathan, so I hope you ready." Heart was quite eager to begin the battle.

(Since this is your first PvP, Spirit, the way this is going to work is we'll be PMing ALL of our orders to Iron instead of posting them here, that way this remains fair.  So start by sending him the two pokemon you're starting the battle with, then send him your battle orders for the first round once we know what we're starting with.)

Nathan slips on the fingerless fighting gloves Vincent gave him what feels like ages ago, cracks his knuckles, and Kirlia perfectly mirrors the actions.  "We're ALWAYS ready for a battle, Heart.  Let's see if you can keep up."
