Lumiose Gym:
Ferroseed took the hit, and landed on the ground. His Iron Barbs leave a bit of a scratch on Emolga.
Robin: Ferroseed! Curse!
Ferroseed planted itself firmly on the floor, and let out a strange energy; making it hit harder, and take hits even better, at the expense of any kind of speed.

-dangling her legs off the end of the dock- I guess this place is a bit like Dewford, huh. Trendier, maybe.
Dolabella: -fishing-
-looks at Dolabella- Where. Where did you get that Super Rod?
..................... Oh! Something's on the hook! It's a wild Octillery!
-Octillery flies up off the hook and into Titus' waiting jaws, whole-
Dolabella: <Okay, that is seriously disgusting when the suckers stick to your teeth like that.>
–reaches over and takes the rod- Yeah, let's not. –lays it on her lap, then continues staring at the waves-
Dolabella: -cocks head- <You're kind of crap at brooding.>
That's not what I'm doing.
Dolabella: <Angsting, whatever. You know there's nothing stopping you from getting out of this backwater.>
I have to find Big Savings, if you're whining about that again.
Dolabella: <Oh my god, it's a goddamn Tentacool. You can get 'em for free anywhere. We could take one of these boats and be out of here tomorrow.>
Yeah. She did save us, though.
Dolabella: <And she also cost us, what, close to a month spent searching? Look, if they don't expect anything back, you shouldn't waste time "repaying" them. She's probably got her own cooking show by now anyway. If I'd lost as many Pokemon as you, I wouldn't even care about this. You said yourself she'd never make your regular party. Or no, you're trying to make up for not going after Team Rocket after they ran away with your old team. That what you're doing? 'Never again', that sort of belated heroism shit? That's kinda lame. Especially since it's vendor trash you're being sappy about. You could pick a better cause. Like why we were stranded here in the first place, you were pretty gung-ho about that before. Talk about losing sight of the plot. And by the way, we're all bored to death of this place. You have to think of what we want too, remember. Look, if you quit now, you get a gold star for effort. You tried. Really. That's the hardest I've seen you try, ever. I'm being sincere. You're not a bad person if you stop looking and go home. It's only human to give up.>
... I don't know why you say so much at once when you know I didn't understand half of that. We'll find Big Savings, don't worry. –pets Dolabella absently-
Dolabella: -grumpy face- <Sometimes you're really immature.>
Shalour City
Odd: -is busy fetching a couple escaped yarn balls that are rolling downhill-
Fuego: -has been watching Stella's cuteness lesson-
Passerby Lass: Aww, look at the cute little Cubone~!
Fuego: ! -growls at the girl-
<No! That's not going to work!>
Passerby Lass: O.O; -backs away-
Tangerine: -looks at Fuego in confusion-
Fuego: -turns away-

Cun Annwn: <Oh! I've never met any of Pent's Pokemon! And don't worry. Your Leadership score can also be increased by level, so just gain some experience and your score will be as high as you want it to be in no time!>
Hildr: <... I have no idea what you two are talking about.>
Lumiose Gym
Emolga: <Oh, ow...>
Clemont: Hm... Electro Ball!
Emolga: <Weeeeeeee!>
-The Emolga gathers a ball of lightning-fast energy and chucks it at the Ferroseed.-
Courmarine
Valorie looked up at the bundle of terror joltik perched upon her nightmares Deziree and just sort of tensed up a little, becoming ever so subtly paler.
Oh sweet Arceus those were spiders.
"Uh—" she started just before Deziree began explaining. Valorie just sort of cupped her hands in front of her, hoping none of them decided to touch her. Thankfully, they didn't.
"I see. Do they always justhang around like that?" she asked somewhat awkwardly.
I dropped out of school to become a pokemon master, but then they pulled me right back in to get my doctorate!Even when resisted, the force of the Eloectro Ball is enough to send Ferrseed flying on the air. It takes advantage over the situation, and gathers enough momentum for a...
Robin: Rollout! Do it now!
It bounces off the walls, and attempts to nail emolga, mid air.

-Herbert shrugs at Sakura.-
Herbert: Dunno why you're complaining about it, but sure, I can stop calling him that.
Illusion HQ
-Shard looks from Stalactite to Crewe.-
Shard: Hence why I mentioned it was for personal use.
-She taps the side of her mask.-
Shard: Doubt desire to protect will work. Will power shields, but not more offensive techniques. Anything else?
Shalour City
Celeste: <Yeah...>
-she softly wraps her ribbons around Eskay's hand-
Forte: I think that whenever I find a way to change back, we're gonna change her into a girl too. Though, she already looks really girly.
Lumiose Badlands
Mezzo: I'm okay... I'm just seeing everything upside-down for some reason.
Xel'lotath: <I suggest you learn to enjoy it. You may stay that way forever.>
Do not fear power... fear those who wield it.Coumarine
Deziree: Pretty much, yeah. They try to stay out of the way, mostly, and I feed them a couple of double A's every now and then.
Lumiose Gym
Emolga: <Ow! Ow ow ow!>
-The Emolga is sent reeling.-
Clemont: Uh oh. Uh, Electro Ball again!
-Emolga gathers the same ball of energy, and launches it again.-
Coumarine Center
-Hildr walks over to Benzaiten.-
Hildr: <Anyway, my name's Hildr. That's Cun Annwn. What are your names!>

Coumarine City
-Herbert's tone becomes more defensive almost subconsciously.-
Herbert: Putting the ridiculous self-indulgent ninja gimmick aside for one moment, ambushing people like that is just begging for trouble! You have no idea how close I came to dicing him up with Tsumugari out of sheer panic.
Illusion HQ
-If Shard notices Crewe's shield changing shape, then any gesture of acknowledgement is hidden behind her mask.-
Shard: Hrm... could work, if expressed as a desire to improve. Desire to improve your skills as a trainer. Desire to improve your ability with Obscura. Desire to improve your capabilities in combat. Worth a try, if nothing else.
Courmarine
Valorie seemed mildly concerned at this statement. "...They eat... batteries?" she asked, debating this in her head for a moment. "I could show you one of mine if you want~" she then offered, decidedly not overly interested in figuring out the edible properties of a battery.
I dropped out of school to become a pokemon master, but then they pulled me right back in to get my doctorate!Ferroseed attempts to Rollout of the way, but it proves to slow, and takes another hit.
Robin: You seem pretty worn out, Ferro...We should fix that! Let that Emolga feel your seed!
-awkward silence-
Robin: L-Leech Seed. Use Leech Seed!
Depsite a lack of any visible orifice, Ferroseed launches parasitic seeds on the electric rodent, in the hopes of seeding his enemy.

Deziree: Oh, sure!
-She clasps her hand behind her back as she lets Valorie do her thing.-
Lumiose Gym
-Emolga is covered in the leech seeds, and his last bit of energy is drained. He collapses to the ground as Clemont recalls him.-
Clemont: Hm, impressive! Go, Helioptile!
-A small, yellow lizard takes the field.-
Helioptile: <Ugh, this is the worst job ever... if only I'd listened to mother and stayed on Route 9...>

Coumarine City
-Herbert rolls his eyes.-
Herbert: And some people wonder why they can't control their Pokemon properly... anyway, are you going to bring this up with the nuisance in question or just keep making excuses for him?
Illusion HQ
Shard: Possible. Certainly not worth dismissing until attempted.
-She looks down at Crewe's spinning shield, examining it for a moment, then looks up at Stalactite.-
Shard: Stalactite, demonstrate Night Slash.
Stalactite: <Sure, if it'll get this dumb learning exercise over with quicker.>
-It cloaks itself in Obscura and starts spinning around rapidly, effectively turning itself into a shadowy buzzsaw.-
Shard: ...Hmm. Possible alternate means of using Night Slash. More relevant to personal use than your own issues, however. Any strongly-held convictions? Desire for justice, desire to excel, or similar?
