Ethan nodded silently as Rio was sent out again. "That Tauros is pretty good. This is the second time you've sent it into a battle, and I am impressed by its strength." True to the statement he made, the charcoal furred Tauros raced forward after the Linoone gave them a disdainful look, Then, Rio gave the Linoone a powerful kick for the memory as it might wondered why these two strange humans were standing there with their Pokemon.
"Sableye is a Hoenn Pokemon, but they're just not my cup of tea." Ethan shrugged back at Adrian.
Sadly, his Pokemon didn't have much luck as the Duskull was moving quite slower than both the Linoone and the Tauros. One would have thought a floating ghost not bounded to the ground would move faster. The opponent decided to target the ghost type next, and uncurled its wet and evil tongue to give the Duskull a chilling Lick for the ages.
This was a slight oversight on his part, partly due to using an unfamiliar Pokemon that he hadn't lead in a battle before. "Well, oops." He simply commented on the failed Will-o-wisp. "Duskull, sorry about that! Hang in there and use a Night Shade!" He changed his mind from going defensively to straight up offensive attack now.

"Apparently in Paldea they were specially bred, so that is why they're fighting type rather than normal like in Kanto," Adrian remarked. "They clearly pack one dangerous kick. Speaking of which, keep up the pressure, Rio. Double kick again!" That barrier was up and needed to come right down. Adrian glanced over at the duskull and winced as its HP was chunked. "Wasn't expecting it to know a move like that. Thought it might scratch or bite, or even headbutt...but I guess headbutting wouldn't work on a ghost." Then again, this was a black and white linoone and he wasn't sure how much he could rely on his experience with his own zigzagoon for reference.

Ethan kind of knew that the Linoone would put an end on his Duskull. However, he wasn't expecting this special breed of Tauros to just... basically do all the heavy lifting on this opponent entirely. He was both astounded and admired how insanely powerful this Tauros was. If he didn't take on this path in music industry, he might get himself one. Sadly, he think this breed of Tauros would cost damage all around and might be too difficult to train for him.
"This Paldeab Tauros you have is quite insanely powerful. I am sorry that my Pokemon didn't do anything to help this time. Heck, do I even need to send a Pokemon out to help you finish this Linoone?" He joked, but he grabbed Pokeball to returned his fainted Duskull. "Kricketune, you're up again. Use Fury Cutter!" He sent out the unassuming and nonchalant bug type out again, who was out to battle yet another opponent standing on his path. He wasn't sure if the small bug type would do anything meaningful standing next to this mighty Tauros.

"I don't think it's hurting that this linoone is a variant that is especially vulnerable to fighting type attacks." Adrian said. "Keep it up Rio. Keep the pressure on with double kick." Hopefully he'd be able to get one more set of kicks in on this linoone before he was fainted. "And Rio could still get knocked out here, y'know. Lucky type match up or no. So I hope kricketune is ready to stand their ground in that scenario." A slight twist of the lips in amusement. He laughed softly. "I have a zigzagoon, the usual kind, myself. I rather want to catch this linoone and see what all the differences are, honestly."

zesty sandwich is now active for water type rollI think Kricketune should gained +2000 exp and not be level 29. It gained 1000 exp after previous battle against stunfisk. It should be (731/2437) and Level 28 after this Linoone. Can Rexman verify? No Mean look EDIT: I just realized Duskull EXP/level gain looks off too. Same party though (after exp checked)

Nature/Personality: Opal is often referred to by Sandy Ethan as the most Lax Pokemon she’s ever met. This little guy often won’t be in confrontation (Unlike the rest of the team, and he seems to have an even appetite. Now if only he would listen to what he was told when he was told, then maybe they could get somewhere.
Happiness: 0
The Linoone continued on, holding onto its last silver of health as the Kricketune and Tauros went after it. However, this time it just... licked both of them instead of the usual headbutt. "Is this Linoone okay?" Ethan asked himself, puzzled why this giant Pokemon was doing what it was doing. After the assault of the Tauros's kicks and the Kricketune's arm-blade, the Linoone went down, and the young trainer was able to capture it successfully. After the raid had ended, Ethan and Adrian were back in the festival again. He seamlessly made his way to purchase another Wishing Piece after jerking his head toward the stall again, as he had a feeling his raid partner would like to continue. "So, tell me if you've ever had enough of these giant Pokemon from another world. I probably won't for a while, they're kind of like a very tough gym leader, except there's only one of it." He spoke casually, trying to have a conversation yet again. "Have you fought in a gym yet? How many?" He asked curiously, as his partner or his Pokemon were quite skilled.

ooc// Same party, handing over a great ball. Paying for half the wishing piece.
IC//
"It may not be the brightest linoone, but not every pokemon out there is the best fighter out there." Adrian said as he picked up the ball that contained their captured foe. "I dunno how long I'll keep this up. I think...I prefer fighting with someone else at my side. If...you don't mind?" He rubbed the back of his head. "I...like the challenge, but it seems tiring to just...keep at it by yourself, y'know?" Then his teammate asked about gyms and Adrian nodded, "Two so far. I, uh...have been...avoiding Ilex honestly. I'm...not the best with wilderness survival..."

I'm tagging all of us Rexman since you've asked for it to be looked over. I don't have the time tonight, but hopefully whoever is available to first get to it gets a good look. Don't want anything getting lost. - Caramell TikiPokemon updated to correct levels and experience numbers. My apologies. |

Rexman Tiki Pokemon level 25+ always gets exp, not levels. So the pokemon left in will get full exp as I understand the note (which calculated from the level the raid pokemon had in the battle), and all fainted ones will get participation exp, which is half exp, as per our exp rules ^^

ooc: Kricketune Slash
IDK, I just use my raid party's average level to guesstimate the tier it's based on, not the highest level
The two got transported again by the wishing piece, and this time they're facing a... Basculin? This Pokemon didn't look particular different than any Basculin, or was it? Ethan looked closer by leaning over, but he wasn't familiar with this species of Pokemon either.
"Two badges? That's not bad. How was Falkner and Bugsy for you?" He asked curiously, as he was thinking which Pokemon to send out first. He only have one grass type Pokemon, or a Pokemon with grass type moves, on him, so he might save it later for after the barrier was knocked out.
"Kricketune, your turn again, start off with a Slash!" He tossed out a Pokeball and ordered his first move. "Sorry, I only bring one grass type Pokemon with me and I thought I'll save it later. I haven't really train much of my weaker or newly acquired Pokemon." The pure bug type cried as he appeared, and prepared to filet the opponent or something.

"...That's a funny looking basculin...but all of these pokemon have been funny looking." Adrian murmured to himself. He'd seen the red and white striped variants before when studying pokemon, but this one was white-sided. "Bugsy and Falkner? They were...I suppose...appropriate challenges? I ended up in a mirror match with Falkner when my pidgey evolved mid battle to take the win. And I have a geodude that I hatched from an egg that helped me take down Bugsy. I purchased a TM from this festival, Stealth Rock, which helped a great deal to prevent him from having his scyther U-Turn me repeatedly. I never felt close to losing at any point...mostly handled the gyms with a single pokemon... And I have a plan for Whitney as well in the works. I just...really...really don't want to travel through Ilex..." He grimaced. But shook himself. He needed to focus on this battle. "Let us start this off with a bang...Electrode. I need you! Use Cholorblast!"
This fish looked pretty quick, so he wasn't sure if he could outspeed this time. But he'd at least take a big chunk of its HP out before he was taken down.

"Nice, so you're using type advantages for your battle." Ethan complimented his partner's gym progress. "I am sure Whitney will be fine for you, you seemed to know what you're doing and prepared." He replied, trying to assure Adrian that Whitney wouldn't be too hard. He hadn't intend to tell this trainer about the next gym after Whitney, as he seemed to do his research anyways.
The attention returned to the battle as the Basculin struck first. With its powerful jaw, it bit hard on his Kricketune, and then went for an Aqua Jet on the Electrode. Even though the combination of their Pokemon hit hard enough for the barrier to be put up again, the young trainer already disliked Basculin by themselves. "This Pokemon is just about as mean and rough as a Carvanha."
"Keep it up with another Slash, Kricketune! Don't let this Basculin scare you!" He hollered his next move as he watched his Pokemon continued to do its thing once again against this swimming menace.
