"Easy there. The best way for you four to collect data is as a group. This will be a double battle to help you get started not just as duos of trainer and Pokemon, but as a team of trainers as well. Fortunately, B and myself each brought two Pokemon, so we can get all of this done quickly." Not that Apple had planned to win any of these battles. It was purely to get the trainers familiarized with each other, as well as their Pokemon, so it would be dumb to have them battle one at a time. "Since you seem so eager to battle though, you're welcome to be on the team that battles me. I think we'll go ahead and partner you up with Miss de Chance. Mister Willow, Miss Backster, you two will battle B. This is more for partnership than sport, so keep that in mind."

Producing a second Pokeball from her labcoat, Apple pressed her thumb against the button, and out came a white form of light. It developed what looked like a set of four stubby legs and a large head, and came into full perspective. It was an Aron. The little steel-type Pokemon looked raring to go kick some ass. With Aron and Honedge at her respective sides, Apple beckoned the designated tag-team of Bailey and Miu. "Whenever you girls are ready, feel free to have your Pokemon make a move."
