Mac Double Kicked the Lillipup! Lillipup fainted! Yeah, not much surprise there.
Seabreeze Wing Attacked Foongus! That was too much for the mushroom. Foongus fainted!
Royal Quick Attacked Rufflet! Rufflet wiggled in the air a bit, before diving and hitting the ground kinda close to Skylar’s right. Rufflet fainted!
Jeebs shot Struggle Bug at Espurr and Bellsprout! With Light Screen up, it didn’t do a lot, but Espurr and Bellsprout’s Special Attack fell! Espurr used Confusion on him back, but with Special Attack halved, it didn’t do a lot!
The girl sent Sandile to Bite Espurr! Espurr took SIGNIFICANT damage, and is barely holding on! This is when Paradise Razor Leaves all that isn’t Bellsprout, and that’s just Espurr! Espurr fainted!
JoJo Lucky Chants! The enemy can no longer Critical Hit them! JoJo also used Trace to copy the ability of the closest un-fainted enemy Pokémon closest to him. JoJo traced Swarm!
Bellsprout realized maybe this Sandile was way more dangerous than the weak not-water thing. Bellsprout Vine Whipped the Sandile for HEAVY Super-Effective damage, but Sandile held on!
Azurill was sent to Charm Bellsprout, punishing it for not fainting it by sharply lowering its attack! Spritzee shot a Fairy Wind at Bellsprout… which didn’t do a lot due to Light Screen and Bellsprout’s poison secondary type!
Seabreeze, JoJo and Paradise took some poison damage. They did last turn, too, even if I didn’t write about it.
With all that, only Bellsprout wasn’t fainted. The grunts were looking a mix of frustrated and panicking, glancing back at their officer, who was holding his arms crossed as he stared unsatisfied at the scene.
‘I-I think I should be able to handle one Bellsprout, yes!’ the girl said, albeit she’d actually have some trouble because all Azurill and Spritzee could produce were ineffective special-based water and fairy-type moves, and Sandile was about to faint to Vine Whip, but she’d probably handle the lone grass-type eventually.
‘Oh?’ The voice of the Team Virtue officer was heard from over there. ‘Leave the rest to her, so that you can focus on something else, then?’ His free hand, the one not holding a spear, swung off somewhere and came back holding two Pokéballs between three fingers, in addition to the Clauncher on his shoulder.
‘Do you want to win through strength in numbers, or are you going to take me on like a proper Pokémon Trainer in a proper Pokémon battle?’ he asked, his eyes scanning over Skylar’s amassed Pokémon. A little smirk emerged. ‘I don’t know which option would be worse for you. You’re going to lose badly either way.’
What does Skylar do?

‘Er. I don’t think it’s ON the mountain, either, or people would have seen it from above, they fly there all the time,’ Anise said about the “scaling” of Mt. Strength, which sounded like outside. ‘High up on Mt. Strength there’s some form of “magnetic platform” which flying Pokémon or people riding flying Pokémon can land on. For really strong Pokémon Trainers, it’s a place they have reason to go to, apparently. Hector told me. We at the Fighting-type Gym tend to go inside Mt. Strength to train, occasionally. There’s a LOT of Fighting-types in there,’ Anise told.
‘The higher you get, the higher level the Pokémon get. But, like, maybe they wanted their shrines to be level with one another? In any case, if the shrine is in the west side of the mountain, there’s actually two entrances. There’s the main entrance of Mt. Strength from Route 4, east from Route 3 and then eventually north, and you’re at the middle of the mountain. From there, we could try to follow the tunnels west… depending on how good our senses of direction are. If it’s a place nobody has found before, how would we know?’ she said, sounding a bit worried.
‘The second entrance is in Rainrock City, actually,’ Anise said. ‘They tend to be called the Rainrock Caves, not connected to the caves just called Mt. Strength. It’s said an ancient population lived inside the Rainrock Caves, for it’s built a little like an underground village, complete with ancient writing and graffiti of things and Pokémon… but it’s a dead end, scientists have already charted the whole place, so if we’d go look there we’d have to find something they missed. There, too,’ she said.
Then, Basil pulled up an egg, and Anise had to take a moment because she, too, got curious as to what this was. Sure, she knew it was an egg, but seeing things up close was still interesting…
In any case, that covered, were they heading somewhere, then?

It appears to move occasionally. It may be close to hatching.
