She rushes down the street to a hill at the end, where a battle court is set up. Zisu, a strong woman from the photos of this place, is here watching. Akari runs over to the far side of the court.
She was unconcerned about the matchup because she's sending out three Pokemon at once: the Hisuian forms of Typhlosion (Fire/Ghost), Samurott (Water/Dark), and Decidueye (Grass/Fighting).
[ Whimsicott is already out to play, and seems eager to cause problems on purpose alongside its valiant knight, Sirfetch'd!! With its little Pokemon cry, it will prepare for battle! Tynamo will hang back, for now. ]
Despite not being a Flying-type, Decidueye does know some Flying moves, so she manages to deal a good chunk of damage to Whimsicott before being taken out by the powerful Moonblasts.
Akari is a strong trainer. This was always going to be a challenge.
Samurott preempts the attack with a Sucker Punch, which takes priority—Sirfetch'd can handle it, but he's going to take some damage. And Typhlosion's Flamethrower is super effective against Joltik. They will both go down eventually, and Arthur and Ori will be victorious, but all the Pokemon who fought are a little worn out.
"Ohhh, congrats!" Akari does not seem to be a sore loser, at least.
While you figure out healing, Akari is pulling out another plate from her satchel. On it is engraved: "Two make matter, and three make spirit, shaping the world."

[ It doesn't really hit her until Whimsicott bounces out of her arms. ]
I-It's not a duel...!?

Whimsicott would be super-effective against Decidueye with a Fairy-type move... She could make a 2d6+2 roll!
Sirfetch'd has Fighting-type moves that would be super-effective against Samurott—he could make a 2d6+2 roll too!
No one is super effective against Typhlosion in your party, but Joltik's permanent +1 would give you a 2d6+2 roll with an Electric attack anyway!
If any of the rolls fail, well, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

Whimsicott... Use Moonbeam— I mean, Moonblast!
[ That's a 2d6+2 roll that comes out to 8! ]

[ Which is to say he'll attack with a Brick Break. Joltik will also leap from his shoulder to use Electro Ball.
Everyone is rolling 8s today. ): ]

That was well-fought, ma'am!
[ Before she kneels to scoop poor lil Whimsicott up into her arms again... ]
Do you know if healing magic works on our little Pokemon friends, Arthur...?

[ Their poor Pokemon, tho. Speaking of, he turns to Ori to answer her question— ]
They do. I've healed Ingo's Pokemon before.

You have obtained a Dread Plate!

[ As Akari pulls out another plate, Ori turns and accepts it with a grateful smile. ]
Ah, thank you... Arthur, look - our second Plate!
