Rava squats down, investigating the Charmander in front of him. Cinda smirks in a smug way, he does some stretching exercises to signal to you that he's about to make his first move. But then - out of the blue - Rava pats the Charmander on its head. It makes a weird robotic sound, its eyes start to glow with blue light, and the top of its head also shows a big blue circle. Cinda seems taken aback and immediately rushes onto the field. He dashes to the Charmander to his left, pats it on the head, then twirls and tumbles across 3 other Charmanders in a straight line, dashing them all on the head (from C8 to C11). His second turn he hops onto D12 and taps 4 more Charmanders on the head, making his way to G12. All of the Charmanders he activates seem to have glowing green eyes and a green circle appearing on the top of their heads. Turn explanation: Cinda has the highest initiative stat so he goes first (although Rava managed to steal a turn). Cinda will everytime get 2 turns, since it's 1 vs 3. Now you can all take your turns: - You can determine that maneuvering around the Charmanders, who are standing on pads floating on the lava, won't be as easy as Cinda made it seem. It's likely going to require some agility to do so, while flawlessly tapping the Charmander's heads.

Rave peeks up at the pokemon pressing several of the heads. His eyes widen and he springs into action by pouncing on the platform. "The heads, press the statues' heads!" He says while pressing the three adjacent statues to the right of the one he first pressed. "He must've gotten nervous when I figured it out and frantically went to press the others." Rava tries to take an immediate right before losing his balance on the platform. He stops to take a breather. "Grab more Charmander statues than him, that's how we win! ...Probably" The heat of being next to an open lava pit makes Rava sweat a bit, but he doesn't dare wipe it off with his sleeve.

Oh was that all? Guinevere happily started the game by rushing forward. "If we gotta get the most, best not to let him get any!"

Himeko let the others go first, as she still needed to think of a way to actually be of use.
"Hmmmmmmmm...Hm? Aha!" Himeko shouts, stumbling onto an idea. Focusing, she uses her power to swap places with Guin, then she teleports from Charamander to Charmander, getting three Charmanders further before stopping.

Cinda sees the three hunters make their move and is impressed. His face becomes more serious and he wastes no time. The Pokemon charges itself with flames and then rushes alongside a row of Charmanders in a stream of fire, from G12 to G6. His speed is insurmountable, you cannot even see all the heads being tapped, but the Charmander bots light up green. Cinda does this a second time, from G6 to M6. He smirks.

"Hah, what's the point of showing off if your viewers can't perceive your actions!"
Cinda's agility is no joke as Rava once again activates three more statues.

Himeko focuses, moving closer to her goal. If only she didn't have to touch all these stupid Charmander heads.

Rava and Guin move swiftly across the battlefield. They can tell Cinda is able to cover a lot more ground, although the gap in Athleticism and Acrobacy isn't that big. Cinda must be doing something else in order to cover as much ground as he's doing. Cinda smirks and looks Himeko dead serious in the eye. They're a lot closer now and Himeko can feel that something outside of the pattern so far is going to happen. Cinda uses his first turn to plant his feet and rapidly tap all of the heads adjacent to him (L5, M5, N5, N6, N7, M7, L7), that's 7 in one turn!! On his second turn he taps the already tapped Charmander on M6. Quickly, Cinda hurdles up as if expecting to be hit with something, and the Charmander activates and slaps Cinda with its tail, southwards (rolled for this). The activated Charmander roars and in line, activates all of the Charmanders that Cinda has so far touched. The Charmander furthest away starts to flame up intensively, which triggers a domino effect of the fire traveling from one Charmander to the next, until it reaches the Charmander that Cinda had activated. That one shoots a massive orb of fire at the party. The platforms of the activated Charmanders couldn't take the heat, and drop down into the lava. In a split second, you can determine what the orb of fire's target is gonna be ... it's a blue activated Charmander at T8!! Himeko and Rava are both close enough from jumping in front of the attack, in order to absorb the blow. What will our heroes do ...?

Rava make the quick decision to intercept the fireball, taking the hit. On one knee, still smoking from the fireball, Rava chuckles under his breath. Until the point where it echoes throughout the pit.
"Well, thanks so much for that flamboyant tutorial, asshole!" He brings attention to Himeko and Guin. "It's his speed. He increased it with that flame attack to cover more ground. If he found a way to do that then we can definitely take advantage of it. I still don't know what was the point of him destroying his own statues, but he shouldn't look so smug in ass-kicking range."
The counterattack to put Cinda in his place begins now!

Guinevere builds up a head of steam, and tries to gain an edge by knocking that Cinderace into the fire below!....Except her big shield catches one of the charmander bots, and she nearly trips and falls. With all her momentum gone, she takes a second to free her shield. "Oof! Oh umm...gimme two seconds..."

Himeko sees what Guinevere tried to do and thinks it's a wonderful idea. She moves to a spot behind Guinevere in order to get a straighter shot at Cinda, but in her haste to hit Cinda before it moves again she ends up not putting enough force into her psychic push to get the job done. "Tch! How vexing..."

Cinda holds up his hand with his index finger raised and turns it left to right.
From somewhere above you hear: “Choo choo choochoooo chooooooohhhhhh”
Froppy appears to be sitting in a carved out opening in the dome of the roof of the room. You didn't notice him sitting there before. He seems to be eating ... popcorn?
“The only weapons you're allowed to use are the Charmander bots.”
Cinda smirks and takes one turn to move and another turn to charge ahead even quicker, tapping all Charmanders in his way, including the one in the square he was already positioned in.

Guin recovers from the botched push attempt, and tries to catch up in charmander bot numbers. "Sorry bout that! I'll get to tappin'!"

Rava takes a deep breath and begins to sway rhythmically. He starts to move down the path nearest to Guin and Himeko, but he starts to see stars of exhaustion built from the hit he took and the heat. He manages to step over one statue before taking another breather. "Do it, Himeko! Don't mind me!"

Himeko takes a deep breath and activates the Charmander bot before curling up, her tails coiling around her to make a perfectly round ball of fluff.

Things happen as you expect. The Charmanders all activate in a domino effect, unleashing a ball of fire towards Cinda. Just before the hit he crosses his arms together to try and block it, but the majority of the hit got through. He smirks.
Meanwhile Guin & Himeko are slapped through the field by the activating Charmanders - arriving at new squares, while Rava finds himself awfully close to strips of lava.
Cinda rushes to activate more Charmanders in a line, it's looking like he's planning something.

Seeing a chance, Himeko teleports to the beginning of Cinda's line, then switched herself with Rava. "Throw the switch, you glamorous fop!"

Rava shoots him fist in the air when his plan falls into place. "Take that!" The next thing he sees is the green lit statue that Cinda pressed, between the lake of lava. He turns around to see Himeko where he once was.
Please don't toss me in the lavaPlease don't toss me in the lavaPlease don't toss me in the lavaPlease don't toss me in the lava.
Rava puts his heart in it an slams the button!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
After a couple moments, Rava opens a winced eye. The scenery is the same, except for the blue statue in front of him. "Is this a good time to tell you, we're sorry Cinda?" He says with a slow step back.

Guin watched as people ran around, and teleported around statues. Very exciting stuff! But, things were getting quite warm as the ground gave way to more lava. Now her comrades seemed a bit isolated. "Don't give up, friends! We shall boop as many statues as it takes!" Guinevere chuckled, and began booping.

Rava and Himeko execute a plan to detonate Cinda's bots, and instead they learn that touching an opponents bot only turns it to your own side.
Guin marches on tapping Charmander, and when she touches the head of the L12 Charmander, it slaps Guin backwards with its tail (to the square she came from).
The Charmander morphs into a mecha Charizard, flapping out wings. Two motors - one on each wing - boost the mechanical Charizard into the air, launching off towards Cinda. It rams into Cinda, exploding all 9 squares adjacent to it (H7-H8-I7-I8) and delivering serious damage. Cinda is thrown to the south, back to square H9.
Cinda rages and wants to pay it back to Guin. He taps a couple more Charmander heads, while getting as close to her as possible. Then activates his row in order to deliver a point blank attack. Cinda gets slapped to the lonely square to the east.
Damage: 26 damage - special defense.
