The Wingull makes it no more than a few feet before branches shift and twist to block its passage, and it's forced to abort the scouting, squawking at the rude trees. The laugh sounds again, this time clearly coming from in front of the trainers, as the brush and trees part, letting a woman stride forwards. The warm sensation coming from the Trainers' belongings is even stronger now, almost getting to a hot level. She's wearing a blue-black shirt and shorts, with an orange vest, and similarly-coloured practical-looking boots, barely visible under what looks like a dress of shifting green leaves. Her long hair is blond, with vines entwined in it, and flowers stuck in various places. Beside her stands a bulky-looking brown rat, with huge incisors. "I am Holly," she says, staring the group over with piercing bright green eyes. "I don't know why you didn't fall asleep or anything like the others defilers who dared to wander into this forest. I will have to find that out." Evelyn lets out a yell, as, without so much as a signal, vines shoot out from the brush and trees, wrapping themselves around her, and swiftly beginning to drag her deeper into the woods, muffling her cries. Much like with Kale, the flora moves to block pursuit, becoming thicker and more impassable by the moment. "As for the rest of you," there is a steely glint to her eyes, and a tone of disgust in her voice as the trees and brush rustle menacingly, "you will be nothing more than fodder in the circle of life for your crimes." As she approaches, it almost seems like there's a faint glow around her. There's certainly an almost intoxicatingly sweet smell... MapPlace yourselves and your 'mon anywhere in the center-ish area of the map. The darkest green spaces are impassable forest terrain, medium-green is slow and rough forest terrain, light green is regular terrain. The 3x3 brown things are tree trunks. They're Blocking terrain.
Also, Gen Edu checks, please. Also also, I'd appreciate it if initiative was listed in your post.

Kai releases Keahi right beside him when he sees the giant rat. He wasn't sure what was going on but he didn't want to deal with whatever was happening without Keahi beside him. This... Holly was droning on about defilers, but he had no clue what the heck she was talking about. "D-defilers? I think you have the wrong people, miss... Holly"Unfortunately, he lost any room for argument when the mystical glow and the smell waved in. Keahi let out a sound beside him and bristled, ready to go if anyone dared to lay a hand on Kai.

" Alright crazy" Cole says while rolling up his sleeves and pointing a finger " You get Evelyn right the hell back here." He takes a few steps forward and cracks his knuckles " I have plans to beat her in a battle today and I'm not gonna let some crazy hippy stand in my way. You have about a minute before I burn this whole place to the ground" With a flick of his wrist he gestures at the woman and nods to Kale " In the meantime, Kale, soak the bitch" The word seemed out of place coming from the normally fiery, yet still clean mouthed, Cole. 1 on the Gen Edu
Cole has a 5 initiative
Kale has a 16 initiative

"EVELYN?!" Theodore tore at the vines and ferns as they roiled in, swelling on each other, undulating and rustling as though alive. Whoever this Holly was, she weren't right. Theodore pulled his hat down, shadowing his eyes, jawline tight. His fists clenched at his side. He gave a sharp nod to Six. "Alright fellers. Ain't gotta tell you twice what her haulin' off a filly means t'me. We ain't pullin' no punches. Reflect."
Theodore uses his Standard and Shift actions to bind 4 AP, putting Trick Shot on both Keahi and Six. Allied Party has 2 uses of Reflect as of Initiative 4 (Six's). Theodore normally goes on 5 but these actions were priority.

"Humans," Holly spits out towards Kai, "Always the same. Denying that you've done anything wrong. That it's everyone else. That just because you aren't the ones tearing down the forests, poaching the Pokémon, that you're innocent of destroying the wilderness. What had to get destroyed to build your cities? To provide for your lives? No, the only solution is to remove the infestation. Return the planet to its natural state."Her eyes figuratively catch fire when Cole mentions burning the forest down. "Surely you do not think that I will bend and kowtow to you just because you threaten to burn this place. That is your folly, to think that now that we fight back that we will simply capitulate to your threats." She shakes her head. "Your blood will slake the thirst of the very trees that you threatened." The Raticate at her side gives a severe screeching hiss at the Trainers. It finally clicks to Theo why he had the nagging feel of familiarity in the back of his mind. The woman in front of him, underneath her dress of leaves, seems to be wearing the garb of a Pokémon Ranger. "Any last words? If you make it amusing, perhaps I shall make your deaths painless." The way she says it makes it sound that it's not likely. Salandit and Wingull are up first.

Keahi blinks at the enemy, rather unsure of their plan, it readies itself for anything, keeping an eye out for their plan. Keahi delays to Initiative 1 This round.

" You just keep talking and talking. If anyone is an infestation right now, it's you! But I'll show you your 'natural selection' by beating you down into the dirt you crawled out of!" Cole was done with this insane woman already. Somehow making a forest appear and then stealing away their...well he wouldn't call Evelyn a friend but still. No way in hell is he just gonna let this chick keep talking to them like this. Kale lets loose a pulsating blast of water at the female trainer(?) but it goes wide, striking the trees next to her instead Cole talks, but is waiting for his actual turn to do things.
Kale uses Water Pulse but the dice hate me and I got a 3 against AC 2

While it initially looked like Kale's blast would go wide, he manages to swivel it at the right moment so that it just grazes Holly. She looks irritated, but otherwise unharmed. Meanwhile, a brief string of rainbow energy appears between her and her Raticate. The rat seems to wince a little bit, before screeching and launching itself at the Wingull, forcing its incisors clear into the bird's body. "Oh, look at you, all high and mighty," Holly says, before continuing in a mocking tone. "'You, who are retaking what belongs to you, and punishing those who took it, you're the infestation.' Do you hear how stupid you sound? How arrogant?" She clenches her fists. "Besides. You cannot stop me. Your futile attack did nothing more than tickle me. It is the only amusing thing that you've done so far."Wingull hits with Water Pulse. Wingull takes 44 damage and 2 injuries from Hyper Fang.

Kai points at the Raticate, trying to direct Keahi to aim precisely. "It's within range, blast it in the head!" Kai Applied Focused Training on Keahi

"You have no right to tell me what I am supposed to do!" Holly says, vehemently, striding forwards, before spreading her arms. Suddenly, six bushes, sprouting flowers, sprout up in a roughly circular formation around her. "The land cares for those who care for it, and humans have long revoked that right!"The trees around seem to respond to her beckoning, too, whipping vines much like the ones that had taken Evelyn at various targets. Keahi, Theo, and Kale are all snared by the almost sentient-seeming vines, dragged towards the thick trunks they originated from. Theo and Kale are able to break free before they're able to wrap them up too much, and Keahi manages to slip out at the last moment, as Six's shield comes up to help defend the group. Holly uses Druid's Call. T1 hits Keahi with Threaded. T1 hits Keahi with Grapple, but fails the opposed roll. T2 hits Theo with Threaded, but misses with Grapple. T4 hits Kale with Threaded, but misses with Grapple. Six uses Reflect.
Keahi's up for the end of turn, as is Cole's turn, followed by those at the top of the turn going.

Keahi marches away from the thread that dragged her backwards, intent on blasting fire at the weird human threatening her master like that. With a snarl and a roar a gout of flame flew from her maw at the ranger, not holding back at all. Ember VS Holly AC 2 VS 11 Accuracy 43 Fire Special

Cole scowled as Kale was bitten and then pulled away. "A lright Kale, this isn't a scouting mission anymore, so it's time I raise the heat from a simmer" The red light goes from Kales Pokeball, recalling the Wingull, and Habenero appears between Cole and Holly. The Quilava flares up and Cole nods " Yup Hab, light this chick up" A moment later the Fire Type covers itself in flames and rolls into the druidess at full speed Cole switches out Kale for Habenero and moves back
At the top of the round Habenero uses Flame Wheel on Holly with a 7 vs AC 2 for 50 Fire Physical damage
Habenero is at Initiative 15

Kai pointed at the crazy person who seemed to be able to control the trees and some other stuff, she was some kind of threat and he wanted it gone. "Keep your focus on her for right now, She's... commanding plants so keep up the flames!"Keahi took the orders well, firing another gout of flame at the woman as she charged a bit closer,just so she could change targets if ordered to. Priority Focused Training from Kai Keahi Uses Ember 15 VS AC 2 47 Fire Special

The barrage of flames launches at the woman, engulfing her in flames... but, each time the fire flares up, another arc of rainbow light jumps to the Raticate, leaving her unscathed. The Raticate screeches after the flames finish, seeming to be engulfed in a slight glow itself. The rat seems to be well worked up, though at what in particular it's hard to tell. It moves to slam into Habanero, not even flinching at the force of its attack, before moving on to crunch down on Keahi, causing the Salandit to hiss in pain. Holly, in contrast, merely deliberately takes a single step backwards, and begins to glow herself, though entirely green-yellow, rather than multicoloured. Around her, the vined trees once more strike out at creatures they can reach. Habanero is briefly ensnared, but manages to slip out before being fully engulfed. Cole seems to be a preferred target above Theo, and the vines actually get a tight grip on him, pulling him to press against the trunk of the tree, where multiple vines begin to squeeze the air out of him... Holly gives a slight smile at that. Keahi hits with Ember. Habenaro hits with Flame Wheel. Keahi hits with Ember. Raticate takes an injury and is Staggered! Raticate gains +1 CS in all stats.
Habenaro takes 51 damage and 2 injuries from Double-Edge. Keahi takes 37 damage and 2 injuries from Crunch.
Holly uses Solar Beam. Holly begins absorbing sunlight...
T3 hits Cole with Threaded, and a Grapple, and successfully Grapples. Cole loses a Tick of HP. Cole takes 7 damage and -1 Speed CS from Constrict. T4 hits Habenaro with Threaded, but misses the Grapple.

Cole struggles for air as he's pulled closer to the tree, the vines closing in on his throat. Even as he tries to pull his arms free, they're stuck fast to the mysterious plants. He stares in defiance at Holly as she begins to glow

The Raticate once more lunges at Keahi with its sharp incisors, but she's able to avoid it, thankfully - it looks like it would have really hurt to be on the receiving end of it. Raticate misses with Hyper Fang.

Keahi spins deftly to the side, dancing on it's claws with precision before swiftly backing away from the reach of the Raticate. It wasn't sure what was happening, but it would trust it's master. "Keep the flames on her, it seems to hurt the Raticate, but it can't protect her forever!" Kai wasn't sure about that, but surely if the Raticate fell unconscious the lady would stop... unless she was a hypocrite. Keahi took that note, blasting fire straight at the woman once more, trying it's best to set her one fire. Keahi uses Spinning Dance, Evasions go up by 1. Kai Applies Focused Training Keahi Disengages Keahi uses Ember on Holly Accuracy 15 VS AC 2 45 Fire Special (40 if Vanguard doesn't apply)

Cole attempted to yell out a muffled command, but nothing but nonsense came out. Not that it mattered, Habenero had his eyes set on the glowing woman and nothing was going to stop him from striking her once again. His body became entirely enveloped in flame as he nearly flew through the air to connect with Holly with all of his force, his flames going from the regular orange burn to a white hot blaze, fueled by his rage. Habenero uses Flame Wheel on Holly!
19 vs AC 2 for a crit and a burn
