Vero kept all skeptical and snide comments to himself as he watched the other two perform, arching a brow and wondering what had happened to Pendra to cause her to sputter and lose focus. Shrugging, he easily forgot about it and turned to Gypsy, his fists clenched. He was almost positive that the Whirlipede would be attacking his precious pokemon, so they needed to hit as hard as possible to knock down any other sources of damage to the team.
"Grass Pledge on the same target, Gypsy!"
[RESULT: 5] +1 Super-effective +2
"..and use Dragonbreath on the Whirlipede!" Luna called, having already thought through her attack and guided Hathi towards the right direction with her hand. He'd been knocked back and thrown a bit off course thanks to Fido's attack, but it was still early in the battle. T'was nothing he couldn't overcome. The Snivy wove her hands while columns of wind and leaves shot up around the stadium, finally locating the Squirtle and hitting him while Hathi's attack shot through the pillars to find Pendra.
[RESULT: 7] +2 Pendra: 19/28 Fido: 12/25 Gypsy: 24/24 Hathi: 18/24

Pendra glared at the Deino that fired the attack as she shook painfully from the paralysis. Celeste gritted her teeth as she looked at the Whirlipede hopefully.
"Pendra, let's give Fido some help, try Screech again!" She commanded. If they weren't able to attack, they could still help their partner do damage for them.
[RESULT: 8] All attacks do normal damage +2
This time Pendra had no problem with letting out a piercing scream of rage, providing an adequate break in their opponents defense. With a smirk towards her partner, Celeste nodded confidently.
"I`m counting on you partner." She said warmly.
Pendra: 19/28 Fido: 12/25 Gypsy: 24/24 Hathi: 18/24

Fido was reeling from the bombardment of grass type attacks. Perhaps this wasn't the best time for Fido's debut..That Snivy was picking on her Poor Fido. She growled and jabbed her finger towards Gypsy. "Use Tackle, Fido! Make that little snake pay for hurting you!"
Fido growled at the Snivy, barrelling towards her with amazing speed for his kind, hoping to make this hit count. He adjusted his body for maximum impact..It barely did anything, but Fido gave a fierce bark to the Snivy anyway.
[RESULT: 1] [+2]
Pendra: 19/28 Fido: 12/25 Gypsy: 21/24 Hathi: 18/24

Perfect! Luna's hands began to tremble from both excitement and nervousness as her plan started to fall into place, and even her Deino looked smug with his progress so far. However, the young woman knew better than to assume victory so early. There were still things to do, and who knew what would happen next?
"Remember the plan, Hathi. Ice Fang while Pendra can't move!" The dragon wagged his stump of a tail and gnashed his teeth together before barreling towards the purple pokemon, snapping icy fangs around the Whirlipede's body, and he could hear Vero in the background asking Gypsy to perform another Magical Leaf to knock Fido down a peg.
[RESULT: 5] +2 [RESULT: 6] +2 +1 Super-effective Pendra: 12/28 Fido: 3/25 Gypsy: 21/24 Hathi: 18/24

Pendra struggled against the Ice Fang and Celeste had to think fast.
"Bug Buzz!" She cried, hoping the bug pokemon could do something as Pendra began to hum for the attack.
[RESULT: 2]
Pendra: 12/28 Fido: 3/25 Gypsy: 21/24 Hathi: 18/24

Jessa could bear to see her poor Squirtle looking so beat up. He was withdrawn into his shell, whining from the pain he was feeling. This wasn't the best debut she could have given Fido, and she knew it. "Fido, dear, Use Aqua Jet on Hathi one last time!"
Fido slowly peeked out of his shell, shaking his head and whining. He hurt so bad! He just wanted to rest, but his trainer needed him! He surrounded himself with a stream of water and launched himself headfirst at Hathi.
[RESULT: 0] +3 [Screech, Torrent Activation]
Pendra: 12/28 Fido: 3/25 Gypsy: 21/24 Hathi: 15/24

The pained cries from the opposite side of the battlefield really began to pull at Vero's heartstrings, and for a moment, he almost pulled his hands back up to his chest to pout. Why did he have to do this? Yes, for a ribbon, but... oh, fiddlesticks. These things were always so bittersweet! Sighing, but smirking a bit at how close they were, Vero clapped and looked down to Gypsy.
"Okay love, this is it. Put your heart into a Tackle!" The Snivy huffed and tapped a foot. Bleh, she really hated physical interaction, but... if it meant this battle, then so be it. Drawing herself up to her full height, Gypsy weaved around on the marble battlefield before smacking right into the doggish Squirtle. She sort of went overkill, and Vero winced. He'd have to teach her a few more manners, it seemed.
[RESULT: 6] +2
Luna let out a pent-up breath as she nodded down to Hathi. "This might be it, big boy. Let's try out an Earth Power, okay?" she suggested. Oh psh, that one was easy! The dual-type stomped around in a circle before he began to glow a faint yellow, the ground suddenly shaking before a plume of energy shot up from the earth and engulfed Pendra. The coordinator also felt bad for having to fight so hard, but it had to be done.
[RESULT: 5] +2 Pendra: 5/28 Fido: 0/25Gypsy: 21/24 Hathi: 15/24

With her partner down, Celeste looked helplessly at her struggling pokemon.
"Try Bug Buzz again!" She commanded, hoping for a hit.
[RESULT: 2]
Pendra: 5/28
Fido: 0/25 Gypsy: 21/24 Hathi: 15/24

Vero glanced over to his female battle partner, the two of them exchanging something silently before he folded his arms across his bare chest and looked on, mouth turning into a frown as he watched the struggling Whirlipede lie in pain. He actually had to look away, and Luna steeled herself as she prepared to instruct her pokemon to perform the finishing blow. Pendra had been her opponent, after all... it was only right that her pokemon make the last move. She'd done this so many times over in Sinnoh, though... why was this instance so hard?
"Finish it with Bite, Hathi. Don't go overboard though" she said, her voice softer than it had been earlier in the battle. The Deino couldn't really comprehend why she would want him to go soft all of a sudden, but as he strode forward nonchalantly and used Bite, he thought he might have understood. Pendra did look like she was in a lot of pain...
[RESULT: 7] +2
But he didn't understand enough to go easy on her, and when he turned around, tongue lolling slightly as he looked up at Luna, he was met with a bit of a scowl. She loved her pokemon dearly, but that was unnecessary. Pendra: 0/28 Fido: 0/25Gypsy: 21/24 Hathi: 15/24
