Despite the [i]Shuckle's[/i] obvious confidence in its own STAB, Anu still won out. Sending The Mold Pokémon spiraling to the right, Anu's nostrils flared in satisfaction.

[Color=Aqua]"Toat,"[/color] the Totodile declared proudly,  and Rin's pride shined through as well; they crossed their arms and smirked at their Starter's work. It felt good to see Anusobeket taking the lead again. Ever since her fight against Hephaestus it had been a long downward spiral of defeat after defeat. Rin was seriously tempted to just finish off the wild pokémon with another [i][b][u]Water Gun[/u][/b][/i], and restart her winning streak again. Then of course their conscience just [i]had[/i] to remind them that they still needed to catch [i]Seven-Hundred Ninety-Eight[/i] more Pokémon. Just as the [i]Shuckle[/i] began peaking back out of its shell again, Rin met its stare head on with equal vigor. 

[Color=rosybrown]"You're tough. I get that. I'm tough too, which is why I'm going to become first World Champion! So come with me, and we'll get stronger together!"[/color]

[Color=Aqua]"Toto,"[/color] Anusobeket egged on, and so tossing out a Standard Pokéball, Rin wrapped up their small speech. [Color=rosybrown][i]'Come on, come on, come on,'[/i][/color] Rin rushed silently. They'd never catch those remaining [i]Seven-Hundred Ninety-Eight[/i] if they had to keep using multiple pokéballs on every catch, but they also couldn't go around wasting their expensive ones so soon. Rin knew they'd go for the knock out if it didn't work out, but part of them wasn't all that upset about that prospect. After all that just meant Anu would finally restart her winning streak, and that was nothing to be sad about.
