After venturing back into the Forest Dungeon and exploring a bit, Mayu is ambushed by a trio of large bugs. Whirlipede, the 'Dex says.

Bugs are to be expected; this is Viridian Forest, after all. Mayu sends out Alpha before unleashing a burst of ice.

The bugs quickly separate to avoid the burst of ice before making their move.
Whirlipede #1 (struck by Quick Attack, but mostly unharmed) screeches loudly at Alpha, who is looking kinda sick (Poison Point - Alpha is now Poisoned).
Screech AC 4 vs RuBE__KU1d20 Burst 2, Friendly Lowers all legal targets Defense by -2 CS.
Whirlipede #2 advances on Mayu herself and does the same, screeching horribly.

Whirlipede #3 begins rapidly spinning in place before launching itself at Alpha.

The sound is jarring, but neither of them has actually been hit yet, fortunately. Alpha lets out a brief gasp as the bug Pokemon's spines hit it, but continues the assault. Mayu stares down the Whirlipede next to her, a wind from nowhere whipping eerily around her.

The Whirlipede that missed earlier comes back around for another attempt on Alpha while its buddy fires distracting stingers at it.

The one next to Mayu is buffeted by the wind, then begins to perform the same rapid spinning technique as its fellow; launching itself at Mayu.

Alpha catches the spines and flings them back, then steps out of the way as the other tries to run him over again. Mayu is not quite so agile; she hisses in annoyance and hurls ice at it.
Alpha uses Counter in response to Poison Sting; that Whirlipede loses 14 hp.

This is starting to hurt. Alpha gets caught between the two, and while he's still fighting he doesn't look in great shape. Mayu continues to blast her assailant with snow.

Alpha growls as the two converge again, throwing one of the pair to the ground. He looks like he's just barely hanging on at this point. Mayu, on the other hand, manages to sidestep the one hitting her.
Alpha uses Counter on the first; it loses 22 hp. He then uses Endure to make it through the second. Mayu uses Powder Snow again. ZM72PGwT1d20 vs AC 2 2d6+19 Freezes on 19+1d20·2d6+19

Alpha's replacement is Zeta, who looks surprised and unhappy to get a face full of Whirlipede as a welcoming gift. He rallies valiantly and sprays bubbles at the bugs flanking him. Mayu looks faintly scornful, and continues blasting her bug.

Zeta is out like a light. In his place emerges Beta, who takes one look at the oncoming Whirlipede and eeps in distress. He kicks up a cloud and dives for cover, hoping to buy a little time.

Whirlipede #2 is brought down and #3 is blinded, but that won't stop it trying.

Turns out you don't really need to see something to stampede over it. Beta is out like a light. Seeing this, Mayu decides a strategic withdrawal is in order; she recalls Beta and flees.

Mayu escapes fairly easily. The bug is strong once it gets going, but it's slow. She earns 30 Poke XP.

Back on Route 1, Mayu quickly dismisses the "standard fare" that congregate in the area. Focusing instead on something more likely to aid her in getting through the Forest Dungeon. After some time, she spots a Fennekin!

Excellent. Mayu sends out Alpha, who bounds over to their new quarry and attacks swiftly.
