[ Basculin, huh..... well, he doesn't have anything that has the advantage against that, so...!

Munna gets to try again. ]

Alright, here we go...! Munna, let's begin with a strong offensive. Psybeam!

[ best laid plans, etc, etc, anyway it's a 3. ]

[derailer]

"Not a chance! Let's get those engines going, Basculin!"

Basculin uses Crunch—it's super effective! And it lowers Munna's defenses too. The next Crunch is going to take Munna out!

[hijinked]

[ ... khhhh all of his battles are going so poorly. Is Lear... bad at battling now??? Is he out of practice?? Oh my god he has to get back to Pasio STAT.



anyway he's withdrawing Munna. ]

Eurgh...

F-fine, that was just a warm-up...!

[ pissy baby Lear.

Anyway, he only has one Pokemon who isn't weak to water (and isn't Hoopa), so...! ]

Staraptor, again! Open with a Double Team, quickly!

[ this time, he's going to be a bit more sensible with his approach. Since everything is out to get him.

2d6+1 for STAB (eventually) = 10!]

[derailer]

Basculin was already preparing to use Crunch again, so he uses it here too, missing. So unfair!

[hijinked]

[ so rude!! the rudest! ]

Tch, and now--aerial ace!

[ he's still smarting, honestly, from how badly he's been failing Munna. This is character development (???) ]

[derailer]

Having already been hit a little by Munna, Basculin goes down.

"Ah... So it goes. Here. Have a little memento from me, then."

Charles tosses Lear a couple of Full Restores before bringing his motorcycle off to the side.

[hijinked]

[ he catches those, and looks sulky that he even needs them. But. Well. It's fine.

Time to tend to his Pokemon. ]

... No dramatic spiels or anything to leave me with before I carry on?

[derailer]

"I'm a heartbreaker... My name... Charles. I ride like the wind. I've already gotten rid of Ingo from my life. I've even let go of my grudge about the damages his brother owes me... Because I'm too much of a bad boy to get lawyers involved. I'd rather just get out of this joint and into a place with freer vibes."

[hijinked]

[ ... ]

Right, yes, that was a waste of time. Foolish of me to expect otherwise.

[ he just turns on a heel to keep on going to the next car

sorry charles ]

[derailer]

In this car is a woman in a Pearl Clan uniform.

"I won't stand for it. A strange foreigner like him coming in and stealing all of my thunder. I was a fan of Pokemon before he ever arrived, you know! But I read the room and listened to the clan, and I politely didn't bring any in! On top of that he's dangerously loud, and doesn't know any proper etiquette, and won't stop wearing those rags... No tact at all!"

[hijinked]

... You all have the strangest of issues.

[ as if Lear has any room to talk. ]

That man is far too nice to purposefully try to steal anyone's thunder, so you must simply have had cold feet for too long. There's nobody to blame but yourself.

[derailer]

"Too nice?! Well, did you know that he..."

She does actually have to struggle for this.

"...often forgets to pray at all before meals? Is that a model citizen to you?!"

[hijinked]

Disgustingly so, yes, to be honest.

[ yeah. ]

Let's just get this over with, shall we? There is no way you and I are going to see eye-to-eye on this.

[derailer]

Wow. Tune in next time where Lear is one of the trainers on the train talking about how disgustingly nice Ingo is.

"Fine! Bergmite, go!"

She sends out Bergmite to fight!

[hijinked]

[ he'll never admit to it

Anyway! Well! He doesn't have anything good against ice (in fact most of his team is at distinct disadvantage), but considering how much he's clubbed things with Munna, he's giving it a break.

Time to play things a little risky. ]

Donphan, you're up! Hit it hard and fast with fire fang!

[ sometimes you just gotta risk being weak to a Pokémon, it's fine.

2d6+1 = 7!]

[derailer]

Bergmite decides not to risk Blizzard this time, instead going for Ice Shard to get a quick super-effective hit in! That's gotta hurt!

...But Bergmite really isn't that strong, and succumbs easily to the Fire Fang afterwards. It was a good try.

[hijinked]

[ It was a good try! Lear just props his hands on his hips when the battle is won, nodding in some satisfaction. ]

All right then. That is more like it.

[derailer]

"Ooohhh... The life of a Bergmite fan isn't always easy..."

But she's not so much of a sore loser that she won't come over and heal Donphan with an old-fashioned topical potion.

[hijinked]

I... am sure it isn't.

[ a beat. ]

Good... luck with that, then.

[ lear.gif


And with that he's headed to the next car. ]

[derailer]

You move into the next car to see—well. He can tell you himself.

"Oh! My! Almighty Sinnoh! To think that the Great Melli would be forced into the presence of such a blockhead! Where do I even begin with that haggard old man?!"

Melli has a Skuntank with him, already out and about, with no trace of a Pokeball. It grunts in acknowledgment.

[hijinked]

[ he opens his mouth and Lear immediately decides he doesn't like him. ]

Hmph. Don't even bother, then.

Donphan, you're up. We'll begin on the offensive--earthquake!

[ He knows this Pokemon, he's ready this time probably!

2d6+2 = 9! ]

[derailer]

"At least listen to me!! Such disrespect—Skuntank, don't allow him to get away with this!"

Skuntank uses Night Slash, which strikes Donphan in a critical hit! ...But there's no way he can hold out against Earthquake. He faints quickly all the same.

"Noooo...!"

[hijinked]

[ damn u critical hits-- it's fine though, they still won which means Lear can be all smug about it. ]

Good. The less time I have to listen to you people, the better.

[derailer]

"Don't come here in the first place then! I don't see why I should help you at all if this is how you treat me!!"

Munna pops out of his ball, and starts floating towards Melli, coming behind him while he is distracted in his temper tantrum.

[hijinked]

[ ......?




well. Munna is more competent than Lear gave him credit for so.

He's waiting to see where this goes. And thoroughly ignoring Melli. ]
