[@Balthazar007][@TheForgottenArc] so i thought it would be fun if dan helped indigo weaken the torchic by battling it, because she actually wants a battle! esp when balth mentioned they were feisty. however i can change it if it would be more convenient for indigo to just catch it in his post. i just thought this would be fun?? let me know if its a terrible idea though haha

Interesting idea, I'll leave that up to the two of you. If you choose to battle, then it would begin in the IC section as a back and forth post. Then you COULD use [url=https://pokemonshowdown.com/]Pokemon Showdown[/url] to battle the two Pokemon (at level 5). Just make sure to use the "Anything Goes" format, and don't give your Pokemon any hidden abilities or items. 

OR you can skip using showdown and just hash out the battle result via OOC posting. Either way, you would then return to the IC section and wrap up the battle. 

Again, this is all only IF you two decide to battle. It's up to you.
