It was a win, a messy one, but a win nonetheless. Crocus had taken quite the beating and at this point a gentle breeze would had been enough to knock the poor little Bulbasaur out so Basil saw it fit to return it to its Pokeball. [color=8882be]"You did great Crocus. Get some rest.[/color] He smiled at the Pokeball and watched as Lorette brought her Escavalier back into the fray. It had only taken slight damage from its previous bouts with Crocus and Roxanne and now with the Bulbasaur being to heavily damaged to be reliable in a fight, he'd have to change up strategies. 

[color=8882be]"Come on out, Cecil!"[/color] Basil tossed his starter's Pokeball and in a flash of light the Darumaka made its first ever gym debut. Since she was switched out in the middle of the Escavlier's attack she would most likely take the hit, but regardless if the attack landed or not, Basil's order would be the same. 

[color=8882be]"Cecil, use Incinerate on the battlefield! Light it up!"[/color] He knew that in terms of stats, that knightly Pokemon surpassed Cecil many times over, but not even that unit of a bug would be able to put up with an inferno for too long.
