By dint of taking place while most other people are getting their Pokemon healed, due to a lack of capacity in the healing machine, your battle for third place attracts a slightly larger crowd than might have otherwise been expected. OOCI'm just going to leave you guys to it.

Isabella's still smarting from her loss to Oscar, even if her Pokémon are healed up. Getting stomped two matches in a row hasn't done much for her ego - even if she won her first match, it was a near thing despite having numbers on her side. "Okay, let's get things rolling. Prickles, go!" Cue one Zigzagoon, who has his own ego to avenge, too. Isabella's initiative: 9 (but Orders are all priority (limited) anyway) Prickles' Initiative: 10

Sibyl stretches her arms out in front of her as she strides onto the battlefield again. She'd been looking forward to facing off against one of her teammates: it should be very interesting. For this match though, she changes it up a little. Because why not. She tosses out her Pokeball as she starts off sending out Petilil - who likewise is probably out for redemption too, after a somewhat underwhelming performance earlier... "Alright, lets go! You can do this, Paddy! Oh, and good luck, Iz!"Sibyl's Initiative: 8. Paddy's Initiative: 4. Sibyl uses Inspired Training on Paddy. also map

"Oh, uh, you too." Isabella flashes a quick, tight smile at Sibyl; she's probably taken her own losses harder than Sibyl has in general. Considering how badly she's been getting pummeled, though, she decides that softening things up first might be wise. "Bring her guard down, Prickles! Tail Whip!"Prickles hunkers down and wags his tail in a friendly manner, trying to catch Paddy off-guard. Isabella uses Inspired Training on Prickles as well!
Prickles uses Tail Whip! 4 vs AC 2. -1 CS Defense on hit.

Sibyl replies a little bit condescendingly, "Aww, come on. Its just playoffs but it still counts!" To be honest however, she hadn't forgotten her prior loss, but in her mind, it happens. She'd since decided she wouldn't let that get in the way of enjoying the battle. Paddy meanwhile looks confusedly at Prickles' display, losing her focus on the battle. Sibyl briefly looks mildly annoyed at Paddy, but doesn't pay it much mind after a few seconds. "Never mind it, just go get him Paddy!" She shouts. Paddy Standard: Absorb targeting Prickles. Accuracy: 15 Damage: 20 Grass Special Damage

"Yeah, yeah, I know." Isabella smiles ruefully. "I just seem to keep running up against people with ridiculously strong Pokémon. How did Oscar get that much power going?"She winces slightly as Paddy drains Prickles' health away, but that moment of confusion is just what they need. "Right, her defenses are down! Tackle!" And Prickles lowers his head and charges. Prickles takes 11 damage, so Paddy heals 5 health. Isabella's Standard: Inspired Training Prickles' Standard: Use Tackle on Paddy; 13 vs AC 2, 20 Physical Normal damage. On hit, Paddy is pushed 2m.

Sibyl's eyes follow Paddy as she flies away from the impact of Prickle's Tackle, looking a little concerned. She doesn't sound like it though, as she first takes the time to respond to Isabella: "Yeah I know the feeling, I mean, there was that Munchlax too! It even hits Ghosts!" She shrugs. "Maybe he can tell us some secrets..." referring to Oscar, as she trails away to continue with the battle. "Right, OK Paddy, at least we got some space to move away! Keep the Absorbing up!"Paddy Shift: Paddy moves away after being thrown 2m from Prickles. Standard: Absorb targeting Prickles. Accuracy: 4 Damage: 21 Grass Special Damage

"Heh, maybe he can - look out, Prickles!" Isabella sighs in relief as he dodges the Absorb attack. "Okay, buddy, don't let her get away! Tackle her again!"Prickles closes the distance quickly, ramming into Paddy again. Isabella's luck finally seems to be turning a little. She'd vary her technique a bit more, except that Tackle is... really the only damaging move Prickles knows. Prickles' Shift: F7 to B7 Standard: Use Tackle on Paddy. 8 vs AC 2, 22 Normal Physical damage

Sibyl looks like she's going to continue the chat, but her face tightens up a little as Prickles avoids the Absorb. Looks like their edge is gone. This brought back the bad memories from before. She decides to take a gamble, to keep Petilil in the game for longer. As long as it works, that is. She shouts, "Lets take back the flow Paddy! Use Sleep Powder!", as Paddy unleashes a cloud of dust in Prickle's general direction. Paddy Standard: Use Sleep Powder. Accuracy: 11

Oh, that's not good at all. Apart from a couple of brief brushes with confusion, Isabella hasn't had an opponent try and turn her status effect ace in the hole around on her yet. Prickles just barely fails to get out of the way of the powder, and his head droops until he's sprawled out on the ground, fast asleep. She's beginning to wish she'd led with Chouette this time. Chouette would have shrugged off the sleep and would have an advantageous matchup against Paddy even with her lackluster defenses. As it is, all she can do is shout for Prickles - running onto the field to shake him awake would be against the rules. "C'mon, Prickles, are you going to let a little dust get you down? You've got this! C'mon, just wake up..."Luckily, her calling works, and Prickles blinks awake again, shaking his head sleepily - but they've lost their chance to do anything before Paddy can attack again. "Yeah! We're still in this!"Prickles is fast asleep! Save Check: 21 vs DC 16 Prickles wakes up!

Sibyl clicks her tongue in annoyance. She'd been hoping that Prickles didn't wake up straight away. This wasn't the situation she wanted, but she decided to press ahead with stage 2 regardless. It was a significantly less ideal circumstance for it, but those were the breaks. "Just follow up with Leech Seed, Paddy! Don't worry!"Paddy Standard: Use Leech Seed. (for reference, Leech Seed occurs at the beginning of Prickle's turn) Accuracy: 11

Prickles shakes his snout but can't dislodge Paddy's seeds. He whines a little as they start draining him. That's not ideal, but Isabella's pretty sure she can bring Paddy down before the Leech Seed does too much damage. "Okay, looks like we need to finish this quick! Hang in there, Prickles, we can do it! Another Tackle!"Evidently heartened by Isabella's encouragement, Prickles lowers his spiky head and charges with a low snarl, putting his full weight into the tackle. Prickles is seeded! The seeds drain 4 HP! Prickles used Tackle! A Critical Hit! 20 vs AC 2, 35 Normal Physical damage and Pushed 2 meters

Sibyl stares in astonishment as Prickles charges into Paddy with such great ferocity she nearly felt it too. It's such that the only thing she can say is, "Uh...? Are... are you alright?", looking extremely concerned. Somehow, the little plant picks herself up, and stares back at Prickles, though backing away. "Nice one Paddy! Just keep at it!", Sibyl crows at Paddy's tenacity as she lets loose another blast of absorbing energy. Paddy: Has a near death experience and then... Shift Action: Moves to D4 after being thrown again Standard Action: Uses Absorb! Accuracy: 20 (RNJESUS PLEASE) Grass Special Damage: 31

For a moment there, Isabella thinks that powerful charge has taken Paddy down - but then she rallies and starts draining away at Prickles' energy again. And draining... And draining... After a long, tense moment, Prickles wobbles and falls. Isabella breathes out a heavy sigh as she recalls him, swapping Poké Balls in a deft motion. "All right, Chouette! Let's see if you can turn things around! Hypnosis!"Chouette twirls in the air with a trilling hoot before fixing her gaze on Paddy, her eyes glowing hypnotically. Prickles takes 4 damage from Leech Seed. Prickles takes an Injury! Paddy gains 4 HP. Prickles takes two Injuries! Prickles faints! Paddy gains 11 HP.
Isabella's Shift: Switch out Prickles for Chouette Isabella's Standard: Inspired Training

Sibyl can scarcely believe that Paddy not only just hung on from such a ferocious blow, but managed to land one of her own which then took out the opposing Prickles, causing her to erupt in a cheer, yelling, "You did it Paddy! You're so amazing!", and jumps up and down on the spot briefly before collecting herself: she'd nearly lost control and ran out to hug Paddy. She doesn't pay mind to her opponent at all during the celebration. As Chouette hits the field, Sibyl's mood wears off more or less entirely as Paddy falls easily to her hypnotic stare, falling asleep making quiet sleeping sounds. Maybe because Paddy's so tired out already. Turnabout's fair play though, Sibyl thought. In any case, she simply countinues yelling at Paddy, "Come on, you just shook off way worse!" ... to no avail. Paddy: Sleep Check: 10 i fucked it up

"Yes!" Isabella grins as Chouette manages to lull Paddy to sleep - and then Paddy stays asleep despite Sibyl's yelling. "Nice going, Chouette! Now hit her with a Peck attack!"Privately, Isabella really can't wait until Chouette learns some more energetic attacks and doesn't have to rely on her lackluster brute strength. Or at least works up a few more unusual moves so she can actually accomplish more during her opponents' slumber than just getting in one attack while their guard is down - she could Growl, Isabella supposes, but against Paddy there's little point to that. But until Chouette picks up some more tricks, it's all academic, so Isabella just watches as Chouette swoops in to go after Paddy with her beak. Chouette's Shift: Close in on Paddy Chouette's Standard: Use Peck; 10 vs AC 2, 15 Physical Flying damage

Sibyl frowns intensely as Chouette charges into Paddy: free hits against you aren't good. Regardless, thanks to the attack, Paddy wakes up, looking annoyed at the interruption to its quick nap. Sibyl decides the Absorb is probably not the best option right now, given the type matchup. It was a little sad a straight charge can compete with that attack, but that was all they had at this point. "Stay sharp, though you just got up! Smack 'em in the face!", she shouts as Paddy lunges in Chouette's general direction. (i think struggle is valid cause chouette needed to be in melee for peck right?)
Paddy: Standard: Uses Struggle! Accuracy: 5 Damage: 16 Normal Physical Damage
Sibyl: yep. you guessed it.

Chouette flutters upward briefly, evading Paddy's strike. She gives Paddy a disapproving look over the glasses Isabella gave her. Isabella is frankly amazed that Paddy is still upright. She's not sure whether that says more about Chouette's lack of physical power or Paddy's sheer toughness. "Come on, we've almost got her! Give her a Tackle, Chouette!" Chouette drops down at an angle, driving her wide foot toward Paddy. Yup, Chouette basically accomplishes nothing but Hypnosis outside of Melee.
Chouette's Standard: Use Tackle on Paddy; 15 vs AC 2, 19 Normal Physical damage. On hit, Pushed 2 meters.

Paddy takes the solid hit from Chouette, attempts to fight it off one last time, but its clearly too much. Paddy keels over, but Sibyl doesn't really mind. She's put up a fantastic fight, and Sibyl's happy to give her a rest. "Alright Paddy, well done! Take a break, you really earned it!", she calls with a smile. To be honest, she was also a little worried at a punishment Paddy took, but she was clearly a battler. She'd be fine. "Alright now Miri, its up to you! Psywave!" She shouts, hurling the next Pokeball, with Miri coming out and soaring past Chouette. Miri complies with the order, letting loose a multicoloured wavy blast of pink-purpleish psychic energy at Chouette. Paddy finally goes down.
Sibyl: Shift: Send out Miri (D3) (Initiative 15) Standard: Inspired Training
Miri: Shift: Moving to C8 Standard: Psywave on Chouette Accuracy: 5 (plz) Damage Result: 19 Damage Fixed

Chouette manages to dive out of the way of the wave of energy, missing getting hit by a narrow margin. Isabella has to admit, she was holding her breath there for a moment - if Psywave had gotten a lucky hit in it might have been all over before it began. But she knows how to deal with Ghost-types. "Chouette, keep her in your sights! Foresight!" A beam of light, the same red as the Hoothoot's eyes, lances out, zeroing in on Miri. As tricky as Ghost-types can be, there's no escape from Chouette's gaze now. "Now Tackle! Take her down!" And Chouette hurls herself at Miri. Isabella: Standard: Inspired Training on Chouette
Chouette: Swift: Foresight (for the rest of the turn, Chouette's Normal and Fighting moves can hit Ghost-types) Standard: use Tackle on Miri AC vs 2: 10 Damage: 18 Physical Normal damage; on hit, Miri is Pushed 2 meters
