[color=yellow]"Uh, y-yeah..."[/color] Although she didn't outright admit it, Cici was more than a little relieved that Tommy didn't want to explore the graveyard. Maybe one day, though, catching a Ghost type would be a way to overcome fear. [color=yellow]"We're near enough, so we could find a Ralts around he-"[/color]

A loud shriek cut her off. [color=yellow]"What was that?!"[/color] she yelled, staring in the direction the sound had come from. It wasn't a ghost. Two purple cats pounced around in the grass, pawing and biting at something, batting it to each other as if playing some cruel game. Whatever it was let out another cry, and a noise that sounded like the ringing of a bell.

[color=yellow]"Dulcet, stop them!"[/color] Cici shouted, running at the two Purrloins. The Swablu sped forward through the air, pecking at one of the cats. It spun around, hissing, lashing with its claws while the other picked up the crying Pokemon with its teeth. A Chingling. Cici gasped. Psychic-type attacks couldn't do anything against Dark types, making this Pokemon defenseless.

[color=yellow]"Chase that one with Fury Attack!"[/color] she commanded, pointing at the Purrloin who tried to make a run for it. [color=yellow]"Careful, though! Don't hit that Chingling!"[/color] Trying to fend off the volley of pecks and scratches, the cat dropped the baby Pokemon. Instantly, the other Purrloin saw its chance, leaping forward at the little bell.

Cici jabbed at the button of a Pokeball. [color=yellow]"Cadence!"[/color] she shouted as the bug appeared. [color=yellow]"Use Struggle Bug!"[/color] A burst of green lights shot at the Dark type, knocking it out in one hit. [color=yellow]"Now, again, at the other one!"[/color] Before the other Purrloin could attack, the energy blast sent it slumping to the ground.

And just like that, the fight was over, but that didn't mean the little Chingling was safe. Wading through the grass, Cici bent down. The bell Pokemon, its ropes chewed up and its metallic body covered in scratch marks, whimpered and writhed. [color=yellow]"Shhh, it's going to be ok,"[/color] Cici soothed. [color=yellow]"We'll get you to a Pokemon centre."[/color]

Holding out a Pokeball, she pressed the button, summoning the injured Pokemon to safety.

[b][center]Ella-Leisy Training Match[/center][/b]
[@Dusksong]

All Ella could do was watch as Brighteye floated to the ground, knocked out by one attack for the second time that day. What was this going to do to the Duskull's already shaken confidence?

[color=hotpink]"Brighteye, come back!"[/color] she called, returning her. [color=hotpink]"Uhh..."[/color] She considered her options. Her two Pokemon who hadn't yet fainted were both drastically weakened, and Poison type to boot, with a disadvantage against Ground types.

She looked Leisy in the eye. [color=hotpink]"You... You win,"[/color] she said. She wasn't going to make Treasure or Smiley keep fighting in their current state. There was no way she could win this. She'd known that, deep down, from the start.

Putting on a smile, she wondered how simply forcing the corners of her mouth upwards could be so difficult. [color=hotpink]"Good job there."[/color]
