Ha! Success. Of course that brief excitement was halted by the Ducklett, now in front of him and determined to stop him. Dawkin immediately released his new catch and pointed at the Ducklett, [color=gray]"Use watergun on that! Keep it busy."[/color] An effective attack? No, but it was [i]an[/i] attack. The Wooper landed in the water with a splash, a placid expression on its face. Upon being commanded the Wooper puffed it's cheeks up and blasted out a surge of water at the duck Pokemon. Dawkin immediately withdrew his pokedex and scanned both pokemon, glancing over the important part of the entries. Water absorb? Perfect, it could heal simply by being in the water. With any luck and no trainer nearby, the Ducklett would be more preoccupied with defending itself than stopping Dawkin from proceeding. Dawkin returned the Pokedex and continued wading forward, looking for any conveniently sized rocks he could use to defend himself from the Ducklett or attack with. If he could make it to dry land and release Atlas he would be in a much better spot. Not that dry land looked to be anywhere near but going back wasn't much of an option. He didn't want to use his escape rope either unless he had to, however the noisy splashes from behind indicated he was being followed by the trainers so he could use his rope if did need to.
