[color=lightblue]"[i]Now[/i] use flash!"[/color] Ren commanded with a sadistic-looking grin on her face. The electric-type didn't even hesitate as it quickly contracted and released it's muscles, creating a brilliant light. [color=lightblue][i]'This should mask Houndour's ember and guarantee a hit. It might also give Shyn an edge to avoid that Tyrogue.'[/i][/color] She concluded, sound but not without it's faults. A recall would likely be what the enemy was hoping for, but Ren already knew she was in an excellent position to change the tide of battle. She could choose how this played out.

[color=lightblue]"Type advantage means that Shyn can hold off against Horsea longer than you'd think. Even if we got it out of the way, however, our Pokemon would be knocked senseless from them both, the horse blasting you once you were in prime position and the fighter destroying Shyn's low defence. Therefore the only logical solution is to split this fight up a bit, at least for now. I can deal with a seahorse - if you can burn the punching bag, that'd be great."[/color]

Ren's strategy was simple: Shyn could take more hits from Horsea rather than Tyrogue. She predicted that Tyrogue and Horsea were attempting to lure them in to target a single Pokemon, so that the other could annihilate either Shyn or Houndour, depending on who was targeted. Either way, Ren and Lucian would be left at a disadvantage. Therefore, by splitting up the trainers and making the battles more singular, they could both deal more damage based on statistical analysis, typing, and even status affects. Houndour would be given a small advantage against Tyrogue due to Intimidate's effect and burning. Shyn would then have an advantage against Horsea due to type match-up, though would require Houndour for support, as Tyrogue would likely assist Horsea. 

And of course, Ren had an idea which could exponentially increase their odds, though it may not be liked by any of the trainers present. Either way, this would be an experienced battle.
