That hail he doesn't seem to mind too much as long as he doesn't expose himself too long for their assault - means, he likes that weather, but he prefers to watch it while being safe under a tree or roof. Juhani however looks like she's enjoying this weather with every leaf on her shell, chasing hailstones and jumping through the snow. Neither Octavia nor Kee himself seem to encouraged to join however, but it's almost heartwarming to observe.
This time he's also prepared for this harsh weather, means the chance that he'll freeze to semi-death, shall he get stuck at a cold place again that is, are lower. Much lower thankfully. His today's clothing style doesn't involve the shining colors of a rainbow luckily, but it still hasn't lost its flashy attitude and electronic/glowsticky aspect.

EDIT: Eh, he just left his electric guitar in the room in the Center.
After not long, he ends up.....
...... at the port. The salt-tanged sea breeze was too alluring for him to not follow as it reminds on home. Home.....!~
What a neat opportunity to people-watch and dwell in memories, and to see whether here he can find a very own Fire Type, it'd be a decent idea probably since the trip to the Temple neither to the Mountain will lead to any warmer places. A breedject would be enough already, at best even....well, something that'd suit him. Something small. Oh yeah, a Salandit! Hah, he's sure Roxie would be proud of him if he'd return with one of these lizards able to poison even Steel Types. That is, she'd praise him for that 'Mon AFTER she'd be done knocking the stuffing out of him for being absent for so long without saying a word.
A Vulpix would also be neat as another option, they're also pretty beautiful. Who cares whether this would be another girlish Pokemon under his care!! Kee certainly does not, and he'll personally hunt those down who mock him for that.
The problem is - well, that he has no Pokemon he could offer in return, and he can't spent all his cash now as he'll need supplies for the upcoming trip. BUT, maybe he could arrange a trade with someone and search for something to offer within the temple? He keeps that Delta Grotle out of her Ball, partly to have her enjoy the weather as stated above and to let her act as a subtle conversation starter with Breeders and/or Collectors. Octavia per usual is present as well - and oh boy, a shiny Sylveon isn't something you'd see everyday~~
+1 exp for Kee and Octavia for the art!
-----------------------------------------
Yup, Juhani does indeed like the snow, though that probably wasn't the case at first. After she's done jumping and running around, though, she calms down and almost seems to ignore the cold weather entirely. She doesn't mind that nobody's joining in her fun and games, either. In fact, she kinda prefers it that way, being a rather solitary creature at the moment. Kee respecting her space doesn't go unnoticed, though, as a small part of Juhani does appreciate that. It's weird, as being a starter pokemon, she has a natural instinct to work together with humans. But also having survived in this harsh climate, she also has an 'every pokemon for themselves' mentality at times. This Delta Grotle can sometimes be quite contrary, apparently...
------------------------------------------------
Ah, so we're looking for international trainers from regions that have some Fire types, are we? Well, let's see what comes up...
Ra: (6) Rare
Di: (3) Easy
Re: (1) Tohjo
Pokemon Breeder Felix from the Tohjo area has arrived with a bunch of pokemon eggs in tow! A Ninetales is accompanying him and carefully warming the eggs with her fire.
Ra: (4) Uncommon
Di: (2) Easy
Re: (6) Tandor
Lass Dominique from Tandor is showing off her hard to find Fire type pokemon.
It should be noted that even with Thick Fat active, Juhani doesn't want to go anywhere near Fire types, period.

My choice will be...Izanami! But for better disguise she gonna take the form of...Susano'o! With some luck, she might bring Meditite.

Candice doesn't start with a Meditite or Medicham. Instead, she starts with her Sneasel, the one weaker pokemon in her selection that she hadn't used yesterday.
Candice looks a little downcast at seeing Susano'o, though she's always quick to perk back up. "Aw man, is that another Steel type? Dang, this is probably going to be difficult, then...well, let's give it our best shot, Sneasel!"
Round 1 Initiatives
Nami (Susano'o): (5) + 11 = 16
Sneasel: (4) + 11 = 15
Nami is baaaarely able to go first thanks to her Quick Claw.

Kogeki think for a few what would be the best approach. "Hmm, what to do....Candice think Nami is a steel type, but she bring Snease, and Dark type is the worse enemy of a ghost...."
Kogeki think to himself those questions, until he was able to form a strategy against such enemy! I think it's time for Kogeki +1 point of Insight using 20 XP. After such difficult against tough foes like Primal Rampardos and Alexis, Kogeki get used to odds be against him.
But he is a ninja. And if there is a ninja is master is in the art of deceiving and unpredictable attacks.
And if this strategy works, he might have a chance of take Izanami out of the battlefield with no scratches.
Kogeki whisper to Izanami who was trying to hide her sweat in the presence of such enemy.
"Nami, we might have a chance of pull off a plan to set defenses and get this fight almost unscratched. We must use Hypnosis against Sneasel (using Will Point of her to make it sure it will work). Then set Reflect and Light Screen to prepare everything to Heracross dealt good damage against Sneasel."
"It's a gamble I know but....just this once, trust me."

Kogeki VS Candice Round 1
"Alright Sneasel, you know what to do when it comes to Steel types! Dark moves, go!"
But what comes next catches the Gym Leader off guard completely.
The fish pokemon stares deep into the kitty cat's eyes...
Hypnosis 1
(4)(1)(2) + 1 from Will (Spend one of Nami's Will Points!)
Sneasel falls Asleep!
"...wha...? What the heck just happened? Sneasel, come on, wake up!"
Wake Up 1
(6)(4)(6) Wow, okay then. 3 successes accumulated
Nami very much agrees with that plan of setting up defenses, but not because it'll help protect everyone else. Her main goal is to protect herself from this Dark type! And if she has to cover this entire battlefield in sparkly barriers, so be it!
Reflect 1
(5)(5)(2)(2)(2) *ping!*
Reflect is protecting Kogeki's side of the field!
Wake Up 2
(3)(3)(4) 4 successes accumulated
Light Screen 3
(5)(4)(4) *shwing!*
Light Screen protects Kogeki's side of the field!
Wake Up 3
(4)(5)(3) Sneasel wakes up!
"...okay, something's screwy here. Sneasel, find out what's going on here! Keep going with our original plan!"
Sneasel is faster than most of Candice's pokemon, and is thus able to risk using a 4th action! One moment, she's in front of the 'fish'...
...and the next, she's dodged to the side and delivered the attack from that angle instead!
Feint Attack 4
11 - 8 = 3
(6)(3)(3)
4 Str + 2 Pow + STAB - 3 Def + QE - R = 4 D6 + 1
(6)(5)(3)(4) Nami takes 4 damage! 4/8 HP -2 Pain
The Illusion shatters, revealing that Sneasel's opponent was a Psychic type all along!
Nami screeches in pain as that cat wakes up and manages to land a strong blow on her. The good news, though: she's not fainted. Even though she didn't get out of it unscathed, the plan worked! She can get the heck out of dodge and attempt to set those screens up again later!
3 Rounds of Screens left.
Kogeki switches Nami out for Heracross!
Round 2 Initiaitves
Sneasel: 15 (4 Dex)
Heracross: (6) + 9 = 15 (3 Dex)
Sneasel goes first! Heracross gives the kitty the usual staredown as soon as he's on the battlefield.
Intimidate: (5)(5)(4)(1)(5)(6)(1)(4)(5)(3)(3) 6 successes
Sneasel's Will: (5)(4)(4)(4)(4)(6)(3)(2) 6 successes
Sneasel holds the stare, confident that she can beat this burly bug despite the major type disadvantage! "That's the spirit, Sneasel! Let's do this!"

"Time to put that Sneasel in her place. Now, use Counter in case she use a attack against ya. But in case she didn't use, use Brick Break instead, depending how she will attack. Then go ahead with 3x Arm Thrust! Let's see she dodge this big barrage of attacks!"

Edit Reason: Forgot the Strength Surprise
)
Kogeki vs Candice Round 2
Sneasel goes straight for the attack, jumping into the air and coming down on the Fighting type with aerial force!
Aerial Ace 1
(6)(5)(1)(2)(3)(6)(4)(1)(5) Fortunately, the Reflect deflects a portion of the blow, preventing it from being as strong a hit as it could have been.
4 + 2 - 3 - R + QE = 3 D6 + 1 damage
(6)(3)(1) Heracross takes 2 damage! 6/8 HP -1 Pain
Heracross counterattacks by throwing Sneasel across the room!
Counter 1
10 - 2 - 1 = 7
(4)(3)(2)(1)(5)(1)(4)
(4)(4)(4)(3)(1) Sneasel takes 3 damage! 4/7 HP -1 Pain (Sneasel has Keen Eye)
Sneasel gets right back up and extends her claws, then runs right up to Heracross to try and deal a devastating blow!
Slash 2
11 - 1 - 4 = 7
(6)(2)(4)(1)(3)(2)(6)
4 + 3 - 3 - R = 4 D6 - 1
(1)(1)(5)(5) The attack just bounces off of the Reflect!
Heracross grabs Sneasel and repeatedly rams her into the walls, floor, snowmen, snowballs...anything that's nearby!
Arm Thrust 2-4
10 - 1 - 4/6/8 = 5/3/1
(1)(5)(3)(5)(2)
(2)(5)(5)
(4) Hit 3 times!
1 + 4* + STAB - 3 + QE = 2 D6 + 2 per hit
(5)(2)(4)
(3)(3)(2)
(5)(3)(4) Sneasel eats her Chople Berry, but to no avail! Sneasel takes 9 damage and faints!
Heracross gives Kogeki a sideeyed look. Was that Counter really necessary? He coulda OHKOed that chump with his Arm Thrusts!
Candice sighs. "...only so much that type resist berries can do against that many attacks...yup, this definitely seems like it's going to be difficult. Okay then, time to get a bit more serious, Candice! Don't think you're going to win yet, Kogeki! I've still got three more pokemon to use!"
Candice has her next pokemon prepared. Is Kogeki going to switch?

Candice has her next pokemon prepared. Is Kogeki going to switch?
Hmm...in theory he is might expecting me to change Heracross... Heracross must be unsatisfied for such quick battle.
He will stay.
