"Good thinking to account for Leech Seed's effects and leave darling Iggles with plenty of stamina. You're a great fighter! I'm glad my son doesn't get you all to himself. Didn't I see you in the Little Cup? Well, this will be good spending money there, won't it!"

Heart earns his $300. Phantump gains 4Xp. Heart gains 2XP.

[Iron]

In the Little Cup, Shiva will be facing off against Scientist Carmen! Heart will be facing off against Breeder Cameron! These two are sisters who pursue different approaches to optimizing their little Pokemon! Both have participated in a Little Cup before.

Nathan's in the stands for Shiva's battle again.  Kirlia's ready to grab some ribbons!

Forthright's been enjoying the day in the rain, so she's a little sad that there's tarps covering the stands.  She's still in her Rainy form, though, so it's not all bad!

Nathan, however, has run himself down a little by spending all day in the rain with Forthright.  He might have overdone it a little...Kirlia's got a box of tissues at the ready for whenever Nathan sneezes.

[Iron]

"Oh, it's raining hard out there, folks!"



"I hope you stay nice and dry in the stands. We've got a lovely roof up in my tower, and biiig fluffy towels, just in case! I apologize in advance that the ribbons I'm using today will probably get very wet! Well, let's see how you all adapt to this unusual weather!"

Breeder Cameron sends out Taillow!

Taillow: (3) + 4 Dex + 3 survival = 10, going first
Gustav: (4) + 6 = 10

Breeder Carmen sends out Taillow!

Taillow: (3) + 4 Dex + 3 survival = 10, going first
Gustav: (4) + 6 = 10

Heart couldnt hold a smirk and he gaze the rain. "Good thing we are in the rain dear Gustav. Even if that Taillow going first your powers is way greater. Anyway, use Water Pulse three times! This may make that Taillow fall by your Water powers!"

Water Pulse 1 Acuracy: Dex (3) + Fight (3) + Canalize (3) - Actions (3) = 6d6
Water Pulse 2 Acuracy:  Dex (3) + Fight (3) + Canalize (3) - Actions (4) = 5d6
Water Pulse 3 Acuracy:  Dex (3) + Fight (3) + Canalize (3) - Actions (5) = 4d6

Water Pulse Damage: STR (3) + Power (2) + STAB (1) + Mega Launcher Ability (2)  + Rain (1) = 9d6

Huuuh, Marill would probably love such rain. Vaporeon would as well. Her new tiny poisonous Skrelp might as well, but either they're not allowed to participate here or they're not registered, Shiva has already registered a full team to Little Cup. Speaking of an Eeveelution, she decided against searching fo these feral pack of Umbreon/Eevee of Stair City as during the rain they likely hide even more than they already do. When a heavy rainfall was hitting Castelia City once, Shiva ended up finding Spectral hidden behind some books on a high spot of her shelf, all curled out and resting/hiding from the rain right there being barely visible due to her black fur. How she has gotten there, Shiva didn't know.

A scientist... Something about them rang in Shiva's mind, weren't they fond of Electric and Poison Type...? Summoned to the battlefield to battle for her was Kyuu! The psychic kitten was still wearing the red tartan scarf that Master has gifted him, as well as an Oran Berry orignally taken from Pluse. "You'll get your Pink Apricorn back when you enjoyed the battle you wanted to have... I don't enjoy searching for it again if it gets knocked off of you, the next time we may not have that much luck."



---------------------------

At some point in between the matches, Shiva does two things:

Create a plushie out of the Cottonee-fluff. She might not be able to finish it today due to not much time and keeping to throw glances at the scoreboard, but all that stitching is acually quite a calming activity for her. It's already visible what species of Pokemon she going after: Precious Reshiram!

(Insert Crafting Roll here - how about instead of 'the more successes are rolled the cuter the plushie' it's 'the more noble the plushie'? Fits that Legendary better.


Also, fetch Nathan wherever he is when Shiva is not battling. She'll catch his attention by handing him (or Kirlia) a canned soda, before motioning to follow her to find a more quiet spot to exchange information.

He probably knows what kind of information.

Valder looks up at the rain and thinks about other places. He wonders if Theo wants to rain-train, or if Valder will have to do it alone.
