Yes. She is very electric. And she senses the hesitation.
"If you'd rather sit this one out, I understand. Maybe this will be a chance for you to learn some more about how the professionals do things. I won't refuse you your reward just because I get two battles instead of three."
[she gestures for her sweet sweet jellyfish with the low rolls to go forth! it does a little wiggle and will go for a poison sting, this time, since water won't be as effective.
and i rolled double 3s... so without the bonus on this one frillish has a 6!]

"Good show. Electricity is strong against Water-types, I'm afraid... I suggest visiting the Pokemon Center again before you leave. Not everywhere has one of those."
O.... kay, I'm just going to assume this isn't normal for you-- is that one of those godlike Pokemon Ingo mentioned? Exactly how concerned should we be about being in possession of something belonging to some sort of divine creature.

It's all right. We'll build your confidence up a bit, I'm sure.
[and then putting it back in the ball for safety on the trip.]
