Chariot doesn't like the loud noises. It surrounds itself in fire, and rushes the yanma in front of it.

Red Child whines as two shockwaves hit him. He hardly thinks that's fair. He leaps up to spit another spray of flame at the Yanma he's targeting, then glares at the other one that hit him with a threatening snarl. Meanwhile, Clay's turned to shout encouragement to Chariot. Well, bark it, really. "C'mon, keep it up! They can't dodge forever!"

Chariot is bombarded by by lots of sound. She is very weak from the attack, but tries to burn one of the Yanma before she is pulled back into her ball. Baba the Mareep pops out next.

Red Child howls as another shockwave collides with him. He shoots a glare at another nearby bug, snarling, then spits fire at the Yanma he's been focusing on again at point-blank range.

He'd gladly keep fighting, but Clay is wary of letting him go down. He recalls the Growlithe, swapping him out for Flower to let her take another shot. "Let's see if you can hit this one!"

"Let's see if your aim's improved... see that guy there, on the edge? Light him up!"

Flower floats up into the air, leaving her on a level with the fluttering dragonflies. Her flames stream out towards the bug Red Child had been unsuccessfully targeting as she closes in on it slowly. Hopefully this will draw some attention off of the poor Mareep there.

Koto, after felling one, finally falls. Rei looks through her options and comes upon the talkitive Kopi. She sends the Murkrow out, and a strange sort of ghostly haze seems to envelop the area.

Clay cheers as one of the bugs finally goes down! "Yeah, nice going guys! Temperance, buddy, lend us your strength!" He calls out to the Drowzee, and a blue glow starts to shine from his forehead. A moment later, Flower's flame brightens a little more.

The chilly mist that fills the clearing makes Clay shiver, but Flower doesn't seem to mind. After her and Koto's attacks bring her target down, she rotates in midair, that serene smile still on her tiny face. Her flame streams out again, the ghostly blue even eerier in the haze as it whips into a whirlwind around another of the bugs.

Yanma #5 mystically evades the hypnotic wavelengths! It also trades places with one of its illusory clones to avoid Flower's latest fire attack. The rest decide that bird that slowed them down needs to go, so they focus on it next.

Wow, these bugs are frustrating! Flower's even starting to frown a little. Her flame lashes and dances back and forth as she locks eyes - well, only one of them is visible - with the evasive Yanma, a yellowish beam cutting through the haze between them as she tries to disorient the bug.

The light on Clay's brow starts to glow brighter as another one kindles on Temperance's sloping forehead. Let's give you a hand, too...

Hi there! I'm Seya, a 24 y.o. editor in Atlantic Canada. I enjoy writing, reading, webcomics, art, worldbuilding, and video games (I can talk for ages about SotC and Monster Hunter...). Although I'm relatively new to playing Pokémon Tabletop via forum, I've been putting together sites like this for a long time, and I'm really excited to work with you all to create an awesome environment for Pokémon roleplay. While my job here is primarily to keep the site running smoothly, I'm always happy to chat, offer advice, and deal with any problems you run across. Let me know if I can be of any help. Inbox is always open! Cheers! xx :)

Hello! I'm Sly, the East Coast mod representative! I'm a 22 year old tax accountant who is exactly as exciting as that sounds, I'm sure. PTU is my major hobby, I run several games (of which the Geode games are my pet project), and I read a disgusting amount of fanfiction. I've been a member of the community for about a year, consider myself more GM material than player material, and am dedicated to helping make your time here enjoyable! If there's ever anything you need, don't be afraid to send me an owl! (Or a PM, I guess, if that works better for you.)
