The flames would burn and sting, but the spread attack weakened the blow enough for the Yanma to remain airborne. "We can still do this, but we have to time this carefully!" Shalin turned toward Alkaid , looking to get his help in finishing the job. Provided she could get his assistance, she would silently count on her right hand to three before ordering the Yanma to zip into his fire-type foe with a ~~QUICK ATTACK~~. The hope was whatever coordinated attack the redhead had planned was plenty to take Johnny's Chimchar down. Otherwise, she might have to think about dropping the difficulty...

(Much as he didn’t want to break out the Murkrow yet, it seemed that he had the option to do so—yet he would be saving that as a backup in case either one of their Grass-types were taken down.) “Now!” he would call to the Grookey, who would come charging in surprisingly, from above the Bulbasaur swinging the branch like it was a club and scoring a direct hit on the Chimchar’s head with a ~~Branch Poke~~ (more like a ~~Branch Whack~~ if he was being honest); was it still standing even after that? There was no way he wanted either of their Pokémon to be welcomed to the Black Parade (or White Parade if he was going to be correct about this, since it was ‘whiting out’ and not ‘blacking out’ in this instance). “Did… did we do it?” he would confirm, turning to her and hoping her answer was a good one. dorime

This was one of the ones that didn't, leaving her at a substantial disadvantage even with an extra Pokémon. The ~~QUICK ATTACK~~ and next volley of ~~EMBERS~~ collided with one another, grounding Flit from his wings being singed. She watched in horror as the insect Pokémon's life steadily dropped, Flit unable to fly from his wings being too damaged. Thankfully for them both, Alkaid came to the rescue, the ~~BRANCH POKE~~ to the fire-type's head registering as a ~~CRITICAL HIT~~ that downed the fire-type. "I... think we did..." she exhaled as a victory fanfare began to play. She wondered what kind of fit Johnny would throw...

He knew that he could hear his own rival going on and on about him getting stronger, however he would tune it out. “Just get going already,” he would grumble in Alphard’s direction—and his own Rival would leave for parts unknown. Who knows how the next encounter would play out? dorime

Wholly unaware of what happened, the girl woke up in Alkaid 's arms, both their Rivals long gone. The edges of her vision were blinking red, warning that her only Pokémon's health was dangerously low and that she would White Out if even the slightest scratch befell Flit. "Hey, Alkaid ..." Shalin groaned in her exhaustion. "Can you show me to the nearest healing point?"

Why there? If his gaming logic was correct, the Home served as the very first town’s Pokémon Center, right?! dorime
