[color=bc8dbf]"Caverns covered in crystals like this are always just so fascinating!"[/color] She said in a half squeal. Calming herself down, she let her Cradily out. [color=bc8dbf]"Cradily, use flash!"[/color] She shouted. Instead of what one would expect from a move often used to temporarily blind opponents, the grass type instead let out a soft light that managed to illuminate the cave around the group. The crystals seemed to light up in response to the new source of light painting much of the cavern in a myriad of colors. [color=bc8dbf]"You guys should have seen the first few times I tried that in a cave, she used to overdo it and scare all of the Pokemon nearby."[/color] [center] [color=9e0b0f][h1]Hammer[/h1][/color][/center] [center][color=9e0b0f][h2]Mesalon[/h2][/color][/center] [hr] [@Noxx] [color=9e0b0f]"Oh, that's just terrifying."[/color] Hammer said with as much sarcasm as he could muster. It was a front, certainly, but he wasn't going to just back down. Besides, even if this were to end in a battle he could easily claim that he had won. In a red flash, his Krookodile was on the field and squaring up with the orange dragon. While it didn't quite have a direct type advantage, a move like Stone Edge would undoubtedly do notable damage. It probably wouldn't win the battle, but if Hollow were to assume their Pokemon were on the same level...it could dissuade her. [color=9e0b0f]"Last chance lady, walk away."[/color]
