[/hider] [/hider] [hider=PC] [hider=Lancer] [img]http://i.imgur.com/FPjmMlO.png[/img] Pokémon Name: Lancer Species: Karablast Gender: ♂ Type: Bug Personality: The most arrogant bug Pokemon you will ever meet. Lancer hates to lose and thinks of itself as a knight. Does not ever back down from a duel. Level: 12 Moves: Peck, Leer, Endure Ability: Swarm Held Item: None [/hider] [/hider] [/center] Well, so much for that. [color=8882be]"Uh, sorry Aria. You'll have your chance later."[/color] Basil returned her back to her Pokeball, not without many protests and yelling for cutting her debut off so quickly, but this was not something she would be able to handle at the moment. So who exactly what could he do if he couldn't use status inflicting moves? Basil stood here in thought, tapping his foot as he weighed his options. Roxanne would give out from the poison long before she could take the Shuckle down, and if he tossed out Crocus then they'd probably be in another game of switching Pokemon in and out of the battlefield considering that Lorette is all too aware of Leech Seed. In general almost anything he threw at the Pokemon would either be resisted or neutral against that thing's shell. It is certainly hard though it was not like its squishy looking limbs were able to take hits though all it had to do was duck for cover in its natural bunker and do whatever it had to do to outlast any attacks that were thrown at it so he was going to have to be a bit creative. Well, what if he had a way to prevent that? [color=8882be]"Lupin, you're up!"[/color] Basil shouted as he tossed a Pokeball and out came his Sneasel baring its claws and a smirk as it looked at its opponent. [color=8882be]"Okay Lupin, use Taunt."[/color] The Sneasel would make an incredibly rude gesture with its fingers while sticking its tongue out at the Shuckle. [color=004b80]"Snease, sneasle, snease!"[/color] For the sake of the RP, what he said would not be translated, but for the context Lupin was insulting the bug-type's mother very vulgarly and then would unceremoniously turned around and started shaking his butt at it. Meanwhile, Basil was mortified at what his Pokemon was doing and simply shook his head. [color=8882be]"That may be a little much..."[/color] Well, it probably was, but there was a point in doing this. The aim was to make the Shuckle so angry that it would act out on its own and make it hard for Lorette to order. If this worked, then there would be an opening to exploit.
