	The ratta moved in a blur, and Richard expected a powerful strike. Ekans too braced itself, expecting a super effective attack! The two, pokemon, and trainer, saw their worlds slow as the purple blur slammed into Ekans.
The small rodent bounced off of Ekans like a ball of rubber lobbed against a brick wall. Ekans was the first to note how little that had hurt, before they shot forwards, not needing Richard's command to do that which came naturally.  As fast as its body could move, Ekans slithered around the Ratta, closing in to [i]wrap[/i] himself around the purple punk that thought they could interrupt Ekans' and Richard's training session!

	Richard himself watched as his friend rebounded quickly after being struck. He was in awe, a solid collision, and Ekans didn't budge an inch! Truly, his friend was in great shape, and he had much to learn from them. He watched as Ekans began to work themselves around the Rattata. Surround, and then collapse in, like rushing water! Richard took note on how Ekans handled itself. Flowing, before crashing inwards, an effective strike... 
	Richard was to busy watching, and studying the movements of both his, and his foe's pokemon to notice the chatter around him. He was ingrossed in his battle, picking it apart, attempting to gather that which might not be clear to others. He could, as well, be completely over thinking the entire thing, seeing lessons where none existed, while maybe ignoring others that were plain to see, such that Rattatas were not effective against Ekans.
