[color=8882be]"Lupin, what did you tell it?"[/color] Basil said not angrily, but more shocked that his Sneasel had such a cutting tongue. The taunts were supposed to make it angry, not break its spirit! Maybe they needed to work on toning down his taunts in the future. 

Anyway!

Pebbles were hailing from above and while the attack itself wasn't very impressive, getting pelted by rocks when Lupin was weak to it was not ideal. Does he use Quick Attack to outrun the attack or was there something else he could do? Even if Lupin was fast, there was no way of predicting the random trajectory of the rocks so there had to be something else. 

[color=8882be]"Lupin, use a flurry of Scratches to deflect the rocks!"[/color] And with that order, the Sneasel used its razor sharp claws and impressive speed and superior strength to knock away what pebbles that came its way though very likely still took some damage since it was very improbable that Lupin would have gotten them all. Of course, this was not really a solution since the Pokemon would not be able to hold up against this type-match up forever, but there were ways of getting around it.
