Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lykas shrugged at the guy. "I don't care what it is little boy blue." He quipped, releasing his Seadra into the field. "By the by, I've always considered raising a Slowbro. Never really was sure if I could deal with that level of derp, though." He admitted with a shrug.

Looking to his Pokemon, he smirked. "You ready Tallulah?" He asked. '

"Dra dra!" The Seahorse Pokemon replied.

"Glad to hear it!" Lykas responded, giving a moment of thought to what the Pokemon could do. "Let's start off strong. Use Bubblebeam." He decided aloud.

The Dragon Pokemon nodded and took careful aim, spitting a wild stream of explosive bubbles at Slowbro. If her aim was true, she just might be able to deal some considerable damage.

"Congratulations. Feel free to take a nap and let me go." Lykas retorted. He could only watch as Tallulah yawned in response to Slowbro's. Then follow suit, himself. "Damn those are contagious..."

Thinking for a moment about the prospects of what was to come. Tallulah would almost certainly be asleep any moment after that. Yawn was good about that. So what could he do? He'd have to either hit hard enough to make it sting before that or do something make her survive sleeping. Then again, this guy was a Defense specialist so what were the odds he could actually attack?

"Tallulah use Outrage!" He called out to his partner. The Seadra nodded, her eyes flashing indigo before turning bloodshot. Violent indigo flames pouring out of her body as she hopped toward Slowbro as rapidly as she was able. When she got close enough, she hopped into the air and began to uncoil her tail, slapping the slow hermit crab Pokemon around with it repeatedly until she simply couldn't go anymore, hopping back a few paces before looking around, suddenly drowsy and confused. Then she simply fell over and crashed into the floor, sound asleep.

"I was afraid of that." Lykas said to himself when Tallulah fell out in the middle of the battlefield.

"......" Lykas didn't see Tallulah waking up again in the near future. So he ended up calling her back to her ball and sending out a replacement Pokemon. "Alright, Mykel. You're on." He said plainly as the Gardevoir appeared. The Psychic-type was one of his oldest and strongest partners so this might go just a slight bit easier than trying to rely on one of his least experienced Pokemon.

"Open up your turn with a Moonblast!" He directed.

"You got it, boss!" The Pokemon replied, condensing his inner light into a large sphere, which orbited around him momentarily, like a small moon, before launching it towards the Slowbro opposite him.

" Crap. I just remembered....that move can weaken the target's attack. I know you know a move that can pierce defenses." Lykas told himself more than Mykel.

"You're probably thinking of Psychic, boss. Want me to hit it with that?" The Gardevoir would ask calmly. Lykas grinned and nodded. "Yes, actually. Give it a taste of your mental might." Mykel nodded and his eyes glowed bright with a blue-green light from within as an invisible wall of pressure was thrust against the hermit. Crab before him. He had another option if this didn't work but he didn't like using it.

Lykas groaned as the Slowbro healed itself. And then a surge of chi flashed through his senses and was gone just as fast. "Mykel, you okay?" He asked his partner, watching blue boy across from them carefully.

"I'm okay. Should've seen that coming, though." The Gardevoir replied.

"Alright. We need to hurt this thing. A lot. Now." Lykas said to himself, watching Mykel shake the stars from his vision. "Think you can do the move?"

"Not even close. I need a lot more practice before I use something that dangerous." Mykel replied.

Lykas shook his own head now. "Alright. I guess hit it with a Thunderbolt. I know you can use that move." Mykel nodded to this instruction and, using his mental powers, conjured a bolt of lightning from the ceiling to crash down upon the hermit crab adjacent.

"Oh sweet mother goddess Diancie!" Mykel wailed as the odor of Slowbro's breath wafted over him. Was it even possible to create such a smell within any normal living being?! "Never! Again! He insisted, reacting on instinct to defend himself, Wishing he could be anywhere but here.

"Mykel, can you keep going?" Lykas asked, concerned for his friend. That had been a pretty nasty trick and Mykel was looking way worse for wear than before.

"I'll be okay for now." Mykel replied.

"OK. Try another Thunderbolt." Lykas insisted.

"I'll see what I can do......" Mykel replied. He wouldn't admit it just now but that unintended Wish before had robbed him of a large chunk of his energy and until it came back, it would take time to charge up this attack.

"Wow...." Lykas grinned now. Finally, some reprieve from this relentless wall of flesh.

"Mykel, I hate to be a broken record but once more. Thunderbolt is our best weapon here." The hybrid instructed. He really did hate the idea of spamming the same attack repeatedly. There was no strategy to it but he'd already tried Psychic and Moonbast. What other attacks did he have?

"Sure thing, boss. Just remember not to let it hit me with another move like that." Mykel responded,still breathing heavily. Or perhaps he wasn't -still- breathing heavily. It may have only just begun. Lykas couldn't tell at this point. This battle was dragging on too long.

Lykas could only shake his head at this point. That blasted crab survived yet another super effective attack? "Mykel, give it all you've got! Finish it with another Thunderbolt!" He called to his partner. Mykel nodded and, psychic powers flaring up as he generated a static charge to fuel the blast, both the Pokemon and his trainer felt the surge of Celestial Chi rain down over the Fairy and heal him somewhat. This aided in the electrical generation by allowing him to focus his energy directly into the attack. Would the Wish from before healing him now be enough to finish off Slowbro or would it yet survive once more?
