Shapeless wisp of wind
"Ahahaha, AMAZING! No more Embers for this guy, we are back in business!" Brimming with confidence, I dive towards Noriaki, getting a couple nicks from the thrusts, but going in for a Flame Charged head butt.

Oh really? Thank you! ( I say. I decide to try the move again, this time trying to swing harder. I actually knock the dummy down this time!) Oh good... ( Thank goodness I know that I actually have the strength to do this...)
(Cyrus and Bea leave the inn.)
Oh, Bea, they're training, yes! Under a number of guys, gckh! (Cyrus says.) Should we help train like we used to do, yes?
Well...if someone asks, sure, but we won't try to get in their way, Cy. (Bea says.)
(They sit down not far from Lane.)
"Hey, gimme a minute to get to know everyone, 'kay, Brainy?" "Of course, but please allow me to get a word in, too, bzz."
...
”Should we help him?” I asked Dana. ”...Nori, I mean.”
Training Grounds
(I unsheathed the Leaf Blades to absorb the impact of the Psyshock, with some minor success. I can't take much more before going down, so here goes nothing. For my next attack, I would continue the long range game with flapping my wings to form a ghastly wind to assault Marlon with. With luck, I might get the boost I need to finish the fight.)
Oh, nothing. I was just curious about them. (Eliza stepped back a few feet and unleashed a flurry of kicks all around the dummy, all while moving rather gracefully
, almost akin to a ballerina dancer. If said dancer was also like Chun-Li.)
(Arsene looked over to the Pokémon in training and continued.) There's also the matter of who's best at sneaking. That Decidueye might be a good choice if he isn't throwing himself in front of danger. Maybe that Dustox, but I'm not too familiar with him. Or anyone else on this group as a matter of fact. "I treasure every day with you, darling." "No need to be so sappy, love." "You know that's how she is, Nia." - AU!Pyra, Nia, Mythra
Lane looks over at the two...is that one a ghost?...that just showed up, hearing them talking.
Oh, hi, uh, you're able to help people out with training? I could proooobably use some help, as I don't really know where to start at all?

"Alright!", said Nephenee, bouncing a bit, "Seems like you more or less have that one down. It's a pretty useful move all around, especially going against someone heavy. Or a Rock-type. Or both."
[Forest, Outside Holstown]
Noriaki is blown back, but manages to hold his ground.
"This was her doing, wasn't it?", he asked with a tone that implied he already knew at heart as he threw some ranged Leaf Blades.

Flame Charge may not be great for damage, but it's not the damage that I keep it for. "Sorry, pal, that's confidential!" I proclaim, knowing full well that he figured it out already. With my slightly boosted Speed, I weave around most of the Blades (but still getting pierced by a couple) and go in for another Flame Charge.

It starts to get a bit windy. No, wait, it gets really windy actually. Before I could try to get any footing I wind up on my ass, sliding over a bit before coming to a stop.
Okay, you got me. Wasn't going as hard.
Marsha slams down with Hammer Arm just in time to see Eliza go to town on the dummy.
Dang..yer pretty good at dis.
She simply says.
Tell....everyone....

Holstown (Training)
That's good. I'm glad I can actually have something else to do besides bite or dig. ( I say. I try to remember how heavy a typical Victreebel is. It's not actually a very heavy Pokémon, is it? Wait, I should be thinking about the Pokémon we're dealing with here and now...)
( I continue.) So...you mentioned a Rock-type move, too? What was it, Rock Climb?
(Bea looks over to the Wingull.) Oh, you do? (She asks.) Well, Cyrus and I are pretty far removed from Water-types, but we can do what we can. We're both well-read on the types of moves other Pokémon can use.
Well-read, yes! Very yes! (Cyrus nods, twitching a bit.) What is it you want to know?

(I did not get the boost, but I did manage to sweep Marlon off his feet. I smirked a little bit as I spoke to him.) Any time you want to call it quits, just tell me.
(Eliza nodded to Marsha.) Thank you. It comes with the benefit of being related to a professional fighter. (She looked at the unfortunate dummy that fell victim to the Swampert's attack. Not exactly elegant, but it is indeed effective.) "I treasure every day with you, darling." "No need to be so sappy, love." "You know that's how she is, Nia." - AU!Pyra, Nia, Mythra

".. Niles..?" It takes Dana a second to realize what's going on. But when she does, she takes no time in preparing an Ice Shard.
"You need to ask?!" She yells at Castaway before launching the shards at Niles.

Give in? Huh, this is simple sparring but I don't think I'm quite ready to give.
I stand right back up and use Calm Mind.
Ya are, huh? Del's mom was a pretty famous battler herself. Mind tellin' me anythin' about her?

"Not exactly a Rock-type move itself, but yeah", Nephenee responded, "Although, thinking on it... I'm not sure you exactly can learn it..."
[Forest, Outside Holstown]
Noriaki grimaced as he narrowly dodged the Flame Charge despite getting nicked by it slightly and unleashed and Astonish followed by a slash of Leaf Blade.

I barely missed Nori, but still got the Speed boost. Seeing another attack come my way, I use Quick Attack to get out of Nori's path (as well as Dana's Ice Shards) and fling myself specifically towards Wilson.

[I just wasn’t sure if Nori wanted it to be one-on-one. Likewise, neither was Cas]
I made a charge at Niles with Hydro Pump.

Neither am I. (I prepare another Spirit Shackle now that Marlon's setting up.)
(Eliza explained with a sort of wistful tone.) Have you heard of the Emerald Queen? She was a hero at heart, always fighting for glory and honor. Never resorting to dirty tactics and usually had a smile on her face. Plus, she was popular with the kids. There is one fight that stuck out to me... "I treasure every day with you, darling."

Here we go again with the Spirit Shackle. Movements about to pinned, etc. I use this moment to prepare a Shadow Ball. I motion for Grigs to unleash the Spirit Shackle.
C’mon.

What do I need to know?
Lane hesitates before continuing speaking
Well...knowing what I'm supposed to be capable of, like this, moves, or whatever, that seems like it'd be a start?

Noriaki threw a volley of quills at where he thought Nyquil would end up going.

I use another Quick Attack to strafe around Wilson and try to grab him from behind, intending to use him as a meat shield. "Uh oh! Careful, Nori! Wilson might get hurt!"

I kicked him in the face when he tried to grab me from behind, then I whirled around and jumped up and used Dragon Claw.

(So that's how you want to play, huh? I'm gonna have to make this one count. I aimed for the Gallade's shadow's arm and fired.)
(Eliza sighs to herself. Here goes, she thought.) Have you ever heard of the Living Glacier? You know, the Crabominable with uneven claws? "I treasure every day with you, darling." "No need to be so sappy, love." "You know that's how she is, Nia." - AU!Pyra, Nia, Mythra

Holstown (Training)
Oh... ( Well, that's disappointing.) Are there any other Rock-type moves I can use? Or Ground-type ones?
(Bea seems a bit perplexed that a Wingull his age wouldn't know what he's capable of, but lets it slide without comment since she feels it would be rude.) Well, sugar, you're Water/Flying...you can learn a host of Water, Flying, and Normal moves among a bunch of others...you can move very quickly...
Indeed! Yes! Gckh! (Cyrus nods.)

Dana attempts to use Extrasensory to shove Nyquil away from Castaway.

"Seems good, but may need a bit of practice in putting the proper force in to it", Nephenee commented, "Looks like you're getting the idea behind the technique pretty decently, though."
[Forest, Outside Holstown]
Noriaki gets pushed away as he's in shock from Nyquil's surprise attack. He looks up at the Quilava, taking in his sudden evil-sounding voice and the notable glow to his eyes.
"It couldn't be....", the Dartrix said to himself before rushing in and trying to deliver a flurry of quick Leaf Blade stabs.
