The duo's reactions confirmed they were up to no good. Sophia clambered down from Skoll, yelping as she fell to her knees. She gritted her teeth and brought herself to one knee, glaring at the two and their Pokemon. One she recognised as a Haunter, a well known ghost type, but she couldn't say she'd seen the pink goblin before. In any case, the Haunter would pose a major problem for her team. 

Her hands clenched, but her face remained a mask of defiance. [color=orchid]"Oh, please. Like you'll be any match for us."[/color] She forced a smirk, trying not to think how terribly this match-up could turn out. At least, if she remembered correctly, Haunter was also a poison type, giving psychic types a much-needed edge against it.

[color=orchid]"Lacey, start with Reflect!"[/color] The Gothita hopped down and spread her arms, forming a shimmering energy field to dampen opponents' attacks and offset the type weakness. The barrier stretched wide enough to cover not just herself, but whichever one of Oscar's Pokemon would accompany her.
