This wasn't going badly per say, but it wasn't going all that well either. So...sorta okay-ish? At this rate though she wasn't really going to be doing all that well. Ugh, damn it! Okay Claire, keep your cool. She just needed to think of a way to break the status quo here, so to speak. There had to be something she could do, but her pokemon's movesets were rather limited and she couldn't really do any impressive combos or have them work together moreso then they were already doing, could she? ...if Del had evolved she could have him use harden and have Ritz use him as a spiky shield, heh! Strategy for later though. Well, maybe they should try something a bit risky, then? Meditite was tied down thanks to not trying to avoid the string shot all that well. It with its psychic moves was the most dangerous thing here at the moment. If she could possibly throw off its balance more and help interrupt that confusion attack.... Welp, here went nothing! [color=#d3381c]"Ritz, Tackle that Meditite and drop Del right on top of him!"[/color] With luck, Mienfoo would be caught off by their sudden battle plan change to react in time. Mienfoo was faster, but with Del still spewing string shot at him they could pull it off, definitely! If Del could get close to the Meditite and get a few good poison stings in, then maybe with its confused status and a little luck this would work! Then it'd just be Froakie and Mienfoo, and as soon as Froakie went down, Mienfoo would be a piece of cake if Ralia could keep up. Speaking of that frog and her adorable pokemon, The Froakie had decided to charge using pound after using bubble. The good news was, that the growls should have seriously weakened the Froakies physical attack, even at least a little. Heh. He wasn't too bright, was he? Still, tanking a hit from Froakie would be a bad idea if she could help it. Maybe... [color=#d3381c]"Alright, Ralia!"[/color] A small smirk formed on Claire's face as she started to give Ralia another command. [color=#d3381c]"Split once and hit 'em with a confusion!"[/color] Just a little something to throw Froakie off last second and maybe give Ralia time to get off a confusion without getting hit herself. The rest of the clones, seeing themselves be oddly useless for now started cheering for either side. Of course, they were merely waiting for a moment to mess the froakie up, even a little. [hr] Oh this delicious, precious, little innocent little Zigzagoon. Lure almost felt sorry for it, but the feeling quickly passed. A Queen couldn't feel bad about the things she took from her subjects - willing or unwilling, nope! [color=#d3a308]"Bee. Comcombee."[/color] [i]"Here, then..."[/i] Combee lowered herself to the ground, intent on trading the honey for whatever that 'bait' was for now. Assuming the exchange went off without a hitch, Lure would immediately fly upwards out of Zigzagoons attack range. Wordlessly, she flapped her wings as strong as she could and created a powerful gust, hopefully hurting the poor zigzagoon more than enough to send the silly pokemon running, before zipping off and waiting above the small shrine for her trainer to be soundly defeated. Rubbing this in the humans face would be ever so delightful! [hr] Lure bribes the Zigzagoon and takes his shiny, blasts him with a gust before skedaddling. Ritz attempts to tackle Meditite, and drop Del right on top of him with his stinger poised to land right on him. Ralia attempts to make a single clone more as Froakie attempts to use pound to throw off whichever one he was targeting, before trying to get off a confusion.
