[@Joshua Tamashii] - [i]Night[/i] The Pumpkaboo charged forth, confident in its victory, its tiny mouth grinning as it filled itself to shout out at Shuppet for another decisive blow. Seeing how Shuppet wasn’t moving to avoid it, it assumed its victory to be inevitable. And then… Amelia gave her command. Pumpkaboo hadn’t noticed the change in expression. The super-sized pumpkin opened its mouth to shout as it came in to make impact, but instead it found itself screamed in the face. Screech, a move that amplified the shout of a Pokémon to be earsplitting, was far louder than his little Astonish shout. Shuppets scream was loud enough to cause the whole crowd of watching Pumpkaboos to recoil, even Laurinda and the Gourgeists over there might have twitched a bit, but her opponent took the scream right by the source before it had started to exponentially decrease. [color=a15840]‘KABOO!’[/color] The giant Pumpkaboo recoiled in pain, hardly gifted with anything which it could use to block the sound, and without the sound Astonish was no longer a Ghost-type move and the forward momentum of the pumpkin simply carried it through Shuppet. It quickly tried to spin around to face its opponent once again, but its ears were ringing and defense sharply decreased, it wasn’t able to regain its bearing fast enough before- Kapof! Shuppet hit into the weakened Pumpkaboo with a super-effective Knock-Off, sending something flying. The pumpkin recoiled, tiny eyes and mouth wide. [color=a15840]‘Kaaaaaaaaa…’[/color] And the big thing fell, making a sound as it impacted the ground and rolled onto its back, staring up into the sky. The battle was over.

[center][color=6ecff6][i]Amelia obtained Miracle Seed![/i][/color][/center] So, with that, Amelia was victorious. Realizing what had happened, the Pumpkaboos gave a little varied cheer depending on the individual, many looked like they’d cheer regardless of who’d won, really. The tiny pumpkin which had originally come forward to her before the bigger one interrupted came forth and looked at his big brother from the side a little… [color=de967c]‘Pumpka.’[/color] Which pretty much translated to “Thanks for looking out for me”. He then turned and smiled up at Amelia. [color=de967c]‘Pumpkaboo?’[/color] “So, can I come?” [hider=If she wants him][center][color=6ecff6][i]Amelia obtained Pumpkaboo![/i][/color][/center] [center][url=http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/d/df/710Pumpkaboo.png][img]http://i.imgur.com/71xboGl.png[/img][/url] [/center] [b]Gender[/b]: ♂ [b]Type[/b]: Ghost/Grass [b]Size[/b]: Small Size.

Phantump could probably affirm that, the Gourgeists of Wilted Woods had a tendency to “playfully” attack travellers within, and be pretty merciless while doing so. Though, they mostly appeared to just be observing an amusing situation involving their young, now. __________________________ [@Rune_Alchemist] Ralia got off her Double Team without a hitch, doubling up numerous times… but the bubbles were too many to dodge by replicating as they hit pretty much all the duplications anyways. However, as the attack had been spread out, it didn’t do a lot of damage and Bubble was a low-powered move to begin with, but it was an advantage that Froakie had obtained for his team. It wasn’t so annoying so that Ralia couldn’t get off a Growl, however, collectively decreasing the attack of the enemy team. Meditite and Froakie didn’t look particularly bothered, but Mienfoo gave an annoyed stare and then closed its eyes again to Meditate once more. Ritz picked up Del and carried him, trying to avoid the bubbles. While one or two hit, it only caused superficial damage to the ladybug and Del was protected. However, the moment the two of them emerged from the bubbles out of the shrine, the floating humanoid thrust its hands at them. [color=b7b7b7]‘Meditite!’[/color] And so, with little time to prepare Ritz was hit by Confusion, taking a mental punch from the meditation Pokémon. While perhaps reeling from the hit, Ritz would be able to stay airborne and avoid becoming confused himself with not all that much damage. He has pretty decent special defense. In return, Del started shooting out its strings of web at the opponents. Both Froakie and Mienfoo blinked from their respective actions, shooting bubbles and meditating, and successfully dodged the strings at the cost of stopping what they were doing, Mienfoo unsuccessful with regaining its attack. Meditite, though, couldn’t dodge and settled for protecting its face with its arms, still smirking behind it as it got webbed where it was floating. [color=e04f4f]‘Froakie! Keep the Ralts forced down, more bubbles! Meditite, Mienfoo, take down the bugs! Confusion, Pound!’[/color] Their trainer commanded, pointing in the directions of the varying targets as she did. Mienfoo unhappily discarded its attempts at meditation, but instead utilized its speed to chase after Ritz while dodging Del’s webs. It was noticeably faster than Ritz, aiming for a time to jump and Pound. It was slowed down by having to dodge the shots, maybe enough to keep it at bay, but then there was Meditite, who while webbed only needed its mind to use Confusion, and it was smirking and aiming. Froakie had noticed which Ralia had been hit by bubbles previously, and utilizing considerable speed it jumped closer and sprayed out more tightly focused bubbles in her direction. If she replicated again, he’d spread out his bubbles more to aim for all of them. The intention was not necessarily to take her out, more to ensure she was too busy to help out otherwise. Around them multiple Chinglings escaped noticing that a battle was breaking out, and they were apparently not interested in participating. [hr] So, Lure was floating around, enjoying her honey… [color=ad9782]‘Zig?’[/color] … There sat a Zigzagoon beneath her. It had put down its golden ball on the ground, and then looked up at her, slightly licking its mouth. It had been attracted by the smell of honey, because Zigzagoons have pretty good smell. It wanted some, staring intently at her. It looked extremely unintelligent right about now, a small animal that wanted some of that from the bee.
