Minor League. [/hider] [hr] [color=c4df9b]"Chiko!~~"[/color] Claire knew Pip wasn't likely to last long. That said, she at least expected her to dodge reasonably well. The ginormous Solar Beam hit the Chikorita, the small grass type taking the hit like a champ. The power form the blast caused her to be sent flying back, slamming right into Claire. The redhead caught her pokemon with a mild grimace. Now most pokemon would probably be upset at this...but Pip seemed perfectly happy. A large smile was plastered on the Chikorita's face, causing Claire to chuckle lightly. [color=#d3381c]"Remind me to buy you some more treats later. Or let you play with Ritz."[/color] She chuckled as Archie made his declaration. He was down to one, she was down to two. One of her best, and one of her worst. She was gonna...need to play it well here, but this is the exact sort of thing she craved. Excitement! Close battles! Trainer and Pokemon doing their best to overcome a seemingly impossible challenge! All that sorta stuff, heh! Despite the somewhat bad situation, she couldn't help but to get excited. [color=#d3381c]"Bellawesome...?"[/color] Claire echoed with a laughed. [color=#d3381c]"Well I gotta admit at least one of 'em has a nifty nickname."[/color] Another big one, wasn't she? All of Archie's pokemon were pretty big. Expected at this point, what wasn't expected was that blade. [color=#d3381c]"Sorry."[/color] Claire grinned. [color=#d3381c]"Fresh outta fighting types. I save the best for last, after all."[/color] Claire reached for the pokeball containing Lure. [color=#d3381c]"Alright, Lure! Lets show this plant how we do things!"[/color] [color=f7941d]"Combee."[/color] In a rather unenthusiastic flash of red light, Lure entered the battlefield. [color=#d3381c]"Alright, hit 'em with a gust!"[/color] [color=f7941d]"Combee."[/color] In a mocking manner, Lure flapped its wings weakly in the direction of Bellawesome. [color=#d3381c]"...Lure, remember that talk we had about contests?"[/color] [color=f7941d]"Com. Combee."[/color] [color=#d3381c]"Yes I know this isn't a contest."[/color] Placing a hand on her forehead, Claire sighed. [color=#d3381c]"Look, just...try not to lose this for me please? I'll give you some more honey if you-"[/color] Lure made a show of some honey it already had with it. [color=#d3381c]"Okay. Fine. You want to do a contest. Do your best and we'll go do one next."[/color] [color=f7941d]"Combee~"[/color] Seemingly satisfied, Claire and Lure turned back to their opponents. [color=#d3381c]"Aha, sorry about that. Lure! Gust!"[/color] With a little more effort this time, Combee turned to Bellawesome, using her wings to flap up a mighty gust.
