As Penalopy floated invisble through the store, James walked with Fez and looked curiously at the flashlight Fezhad found. [i]"Humans can make interesting things,"[/i] he commented, looking at the other items. Some seemed to be just functional, some were colourful, others had pictures of Pokémon on them or. like the flashlight, were shaped like a Pokémon.

"Thunder Fang?" Whitney asked.
"Y-yeah..." Michael said, rubbing the back of his neck. That wasn't the attack he had ordered, but it worked. 

The Ice Beam hit Eevee and Whitney quickly returned her. "Miltank!" she called, calling her last Pokémon to the field. "Use your Defence Curl!" 
The Miltank curled up in a ball, preparing for the battle.

"Damn..." Michael muttered. "Use your Howl, Missy! Then attack Tauros again."

"Work-Up, Tauros!" Whitney ordered and a red aura surrounded the Tauros for a moment.

Saruya yelped as the Crunch hit, but retaliated with her Reversal, using her head to deliver the blow. Her legs trembled after the attack and she panted, there wasn't much more she could take. She kept her eyes on the Mightyena, even though she wanted to check on Harry. It would be unwise to look away now.

Andy looked up when he heard Frosiien. "Since yesterday," he told her. "Darkrai tried to abduct my nephew, but our Pokémon were able to stop him. He abandoned Varina, and after talking it over with Soul it was decided a trainer would be beneficial for her and then I took her in." He looked at the Spiritomb. "I still have to get to know her, but I'm certain she'll tackle as well as Benny did when he was a Metapod."

Kim turned to Varina, knowing she wouldn't understand what Andy was going on about. [i]"Benny once told me that the one time he used, ehm,  "Tackle" as a Metapod he had hardened several times and then got double-kicked into an opponent by his ally. So... I think Andy is talking about throwing your keystone into someone. He's not really serious about that... I think."[/i]
