There were times when victory was so clean cut that there were no worries to be had. This was not one of those times. 

Basil and Lupin looked up at the literal boulders raining from above, knowing that they had absolutely no way of avoiding the devastation of the attack. [color=004b80]"Snease. (Shi-)"[/color] [color=8882be]"Shi-"[/color]. And then Lupin was buried by the Rock Slide with only its twitching arm poking out of the rocks and then absorbed back into its Pokeball. All things considered, this wasn't the worst possible outcome. 

[color=8882be]"You did a good job Lupin."[/color] He smiled at the Pokeball before placing it back on his belt and grabbed another. [color=8882be]"Let's wrap this up, Glory!"[/color] Coming back for the finale of the gym battle, the wrestling bird came flying out t-posing in an assertion of dominance.
