[Spruce] "Hey, uh, Celes? Yeah, he's kinda a noobish Magikarp, he can't use Tackle yet!" I call out to Celes, who somehow thought Kamina knew tackle. If he did know tackle, I'm certain he would be using it against these water types, plus, it kinda takes a while for them to learn that technique. I then watch as a kabuto runs in the way of Celes' confuse ray, taking the attack for the Mudkip... seems like we won't be able to get to him until we beat his new minions. With that thought, I turn back towards my opponent, a squirtle who looked pretty mad at everyone, but was not otherwise noteworthy. After easily taking a water gun, laughing as that just really didn't do much thanks to my type. I then attack him with vine whip, which obviously hurt him quite a bit, as his screams of pain would have indicated. He gets back up from the attack, however, and uses withdraw, retreating back into his shell, and now much more prepared for my attacks. Unfortunately, I didn't have any attacks that would pierce through his defenses, so I had to use vine whip again, which sent him and his shell sliding all over the cave, sending him into several pokemon, including some of his own teammates. Unfortunately, when it came time for the mudkip to get hit, something else took his place and took the damage for him... again... the squirtle then got out of his shell with a face that said he was dizzy and confused. [i]Well, that certainly worked out for me, even if he didn't take too much from that last attack.[/i] I think as I walk over to the squirtle, vine whip in hand. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [Anthony] I didn't really hear what that eevee was yelling about because I had a new mission, to defeat that liar I thought was my friend. He sent several pokemon, supposedly my replacements at us, though, unlike me, they were all water types, which meant that they all had a common weakness, one that was found and demonstrated by that snivy. What attacked me was no more than a shellos, a blue one, which means that he must come from the east, or something. Knowing its weakness, I use absorb on the thing, though... it didn't seem too fazed by the attack. "Huh? Hey, why aren't you in pain?" I ask the shellos, who shrugs, and says "Well, you're not very good at using grass type moves, and absorb's weak." Dang, he was right, but how did he know that I struggle at using moves like absorb? It didn't matter, as the thing started throwing mud everywhere, covering the opposing side in it. [i]What the heck did that do? I mean, mud doesn't effect grass, right?[/i] I think as I use absorb on the thing, again, though I may not have had any health to recover, this was my best means of attack as long as this shellos doesn't actually use a physical attack on me, which was doubtful, as they, like me, lacked the limbs to actually perform most physical attacks. The thing then seemingly controls some mud and tries to blind me with it... the attack kinda hurt, I guess, but my vision was protected thanks to the fact that I pretty much withdrew into the helmet just to protect my eyes from that attack.
