Erika caught the glow of a new Pokeball being summoned and dared a glance at what had changed. Emerging from the glow as a familiar yet far larger profile than she had been prepared for.
[color=6ecff6]"Eeep!"[/color] She squeaked and slid behind a desk as the opposing Malamar appeared to shimmer with fancy lights. It gave her a chance to really think about this and that was a mistake.

A Malamar! What the heck was she doing here!? Her Pokedex had just finished the entry and yet she could recognize the similarity in her Kay. It was an evolved Inkay and who knows how far off that was! And now, just like a real villain, Erika could be hypnotized and interrogated! She could feel her chest tighten as her heart raced. This was real. Real stupid!

She must have looked on the verge of losing her nerve as Sno weaved through the air right in front of her and shook her head sympathetically. One of her arms reached out and tapped Erika on the shoulder. [color=662d91]"Fros."[/color] The Froslass stated assuredly, confident even. Erika winced, feeling Tara shuffling on her cap and leap off and then weightlessly floated down to her lap. [color=0072bc]"Swabluu."[/color] She chirped enthusiastically.

Erika exhaled. Tara and Sno were both behind her, 100% it seemed. They just needed to be clever. Work with the little time they had. They didn't need to win, just grab the gold, Musharna in this case, and get the heck outta here. 

[color=6ecff6]"Okay... You're right. We can do this."[/color] Erika nodded and leaned out to peak around the corner to see the approaching Malamar. Sno was fast, maybe fast enough to get a strike off, but that wouldn't give Erika time. She needed Malamar to be stalled. [color=6ecff6]"Sno, sorry buddy, but can I ask you to surprise our attacker with an Astonish?"[/color] Flinching was possible but she probably needed to boost her odds. [color=6ecff6]"Then Tara, back up Sno with Sing. See if you can put Malamar to sleep in this place."[/color]

The irony wasn't lost on Erika as she scoffed at it. [color=6ecff6]"Rose is on her own but Hypno is slowed and a bit damaged. Plus I think she is clever enough to work out how to get out of there. I'm going to make a run for Musharna and pull her or him free."[/color]

Her Pokemon nodded and it was time.

Erika jumped to her feet and pointed at Malamar.  [color=6ecff6]"Sno, Astonish!"[/color] Erika's Froslass darted around the left side of the desk and flew as fast as she could all the way up to Malamar to burst into a noise to surprise. Meanwhile Erika gave Tara a boost so she fluttered into the air.  [color=6ecff6]"Tara, Siiing!"[/color] She called out and let the Swablu burst into a song at Malamar. While her Pokemon were tied up, she ran towards the Musharna looking to rip and tear and break anything to free the Pokemon from its current predicament!
