Jubilife City

[Bwah, I'm tired of super long posts. XD]

Trey: (sarcastically) ...You're friend is a natural cheerleader.
Mana: (mumbling) Just be glad he hasn't donned a cheerleading outfit... *pauses, and raises an eyebrow at Whip's antics* Whip, did you train your Eevee to do that?

(Ragg! That was supposed to say Ad-libbed, stupid autocorrect.)

Whip: Nyeh?
*Eevee flips onto Whip's head as he halts, looking down at Whip with a smile*
Whip:...Hey mister, have you been practicing Helping Hand without me?

Mana: ...I might have to borrow Whip's Eevee somtime... *shakes head* Alright, ready Volt? Trey?
Trey: You bet.
Mana: Then let's go!
Trey: Chimchar! Ember!
Chimchar: Char! *lets out a volley of fire sparks*
Mana: Dodge them, Volt, and then use spark!
Volt: *dodges most of them and then lights up and tackles Chimchar*
Trey: Hang in there Chimchar and use fury swipes!
Chimchar: *once the spark fades, he unleashes a flurry of scratches, until the final one sends Volt flying*
Volt: Shinx! *lands in front of Mana*
Mana: Volt! Are you okay?
Volt: *struggles to its feet, but gets up* Shinx!
Mana: He won't last much longer... Alright Shinx, use leer!
Volt: *lets out a sharp look again, lowering Chimchar's defense*
Trey: Let's finish this, Chimchar! Flame wheel!
Mana: *shares a look with Volt* Alright Volt. You know what to do! Spark!

*both Volt and Chimchar charge at each other, creating a mini-explosion of energy when they collide*

Mana: *shields her eyes from the smoke*
Trey: *does the same*
Chimchar: Chaaar! *hits the ground, but is quick to get up*
Volt: Shiiinx! *hits the ground hard, but struggles to get up* Shiinx... *starts to sway* Shiiinx. *faints* @.@
Mana: *returns Volt to the pokeball and smiles* You did great Volt. You've set the field up just right.

Whip: Ack, Mana lost....
Eevee: Vii..
*Eevee bounds to Mana's side comfortingly*
Whip:....Wait...
*Whip spins around to talk to himself*
Whip: If Mana lost, then there's no way we can afford those tickets....Maybe...

Mana: What are you talking about Whip? I still have Rose and Wynn. They're just weakened, that's all.
Trey: The fact that it's taking you four pokemon is rather sad.
Mana: Hey, it's not over until the fat lady sings. Not my problem if you only have two pokemon.
Trey: -.-#
Mana: Alright Wynn! Yoooou're up! *sends out Wynn*
Wynn: Star, star!

*Whip take a good look at Wynn*
Whip: We've lost.

Mana: *throws a pecha berry at Whip*
Trey: You've got quite the temper, don't you?
Mana: I can~ Would you like a pecha berry too? *gives a sweet smile that hints contained sadism*
Trey: ...No thank you.

Mana: Well, let's go! Wynn! Quick attack!
Wynn: *dives into a quick attack that could rival an aerial ace and slams into Chimchar*
Chimchar: Chaaar...! *skids back*
Trey: Quick, ember!
Chimchar: *unleashes out ember*
Mana: Take to the skies, Wynn!
Wynn: Staaar! *flies above to dodge them*
Mana: Dive and use quick attack again!
Trey: Ready yourself, Chimchar!
Chimchar: Char!
Wynn: *starts gaining speed and dives down*
Mana: Wynn! Zig zag formation!
Wynn: *abruptly changes directions in the sky, making it hard for Chimchar to track, until it slams into Chimchar again and taking to the sky again*
Mana: Alright Wynn! *flashes a thumbs up*
Trey: Not bad. But this battle is ours.
Mana: *blinks* Huh?
Chimchar: *stands up, and its flaming tail suddenly ignites brightly, creating a larger fire* Chaaaar...!!!!
Mana: Crap. Blaze. *shakes head* No, we're alright! Blaze doesn't matter if you can't land a hit! Wynn! Let's end this! Quick attack one more time!
Wynn: Star! *takes to a zig zag formation and is dashing towards Chimchar*
Chimchar: *in a ready stance this time and takes the hit head on, but grabs onto Wynn's wings*
Wynn: Star!?
Mana: Oh no!
Trey: Gotcha. Ember!
Chimchar: *unleashes ember point blank range*
Wynn: Staaarrr!! *is sent flying back into Mana's direction and lands on its back* Staaar... @.@

Mana: *scratches head and returns Wynn back to her pokeball* Sorry Wynn. I miscalculated. But you did great. *puts her pokeball at her waist and pulls out Rose's pokeball*
Trey: Last one, huh?
Mana: This'll definitely be close.
Trey: Yeah, but sorry. Like I said. This match is ours.
Mana: *smirks* Don't count us out just yet. *sends out Rose*

Whip: Mana, are you sure about this?
*Whip glances at the Chimchar*
Whip: Not only is Rose weakened, she's a grass type. That chimp is looking more fiesty too, now that he's been riled up.

Mana: She's my last Pokemon, Whip. I don't really have a choice. But the blaze ability comes into effect when a Pokemon's health is low. *smiles warmly at Rose and bends down to pet her* 'Sides~ You're a fighter, aren't ya, Rose?
Rose: 'Dew~! ^w^ *leans into Mana's hand*
Trey: Erg. Please stop with the baby talk...

Whip: Alright then, try your hardest you two!
Eevee: Vii!
*Whip and Eevee begin another cheer that looks suspiciously like background betting*

Mana: *takes a deep breath and stands up* Do your best Rose.
Rose: Dew!

*a gust of wind blows through the field for a moment, and then the battle begins*

Trey: Ember!
Chimchar: *shoots out sparks of fire again*
Mana: Water sport!
Rose: Deewww! *blows out a spurt of water that descends like rain and weakens and slows the ember attack so much that Rose can dodge*
Mana: Nice Rose!
Trey: Chimchar, fury swipes!
Chimchar: Chaar!! *is able to catch Rose and starts scratching at her*
Rose: Budew!!
Mana: Hang on, Rose! *sees an opening* Stun spore!
Trey: Stun spore!?
Rose: Budew! *sprays out spores at Chimchar, effectively paralyzing it*
Trey: Chimchar!
Mana: Rose! Mega drain, now!
Rose: Buuuudeeeew!!! *drains energy from Chimchar, and it regains some health* Budew!
Trey: Chimchar! C'mon! Use flame wheel!
Chimchar: *jumps into the air and attempts to spin, but his paralyzed state kicks in again*
Trey: Chimchar!
Mana: Yes! Let's finish this, Rose! Mega drain again!
Rose: Budew! *drains energy from Chimchar once again*
Trey: Use Ember Chimchar!!
Chimchar: *gets over its paralyzed state and unleashes ember*
Rose: Budeeeeew!!! *flies back*
Mana: Rose! Rose, are you okay?!
Budew: ...dew... *struggles to its feet*
Chimchar: (panting) Char... Char...
Rose: Budeew... *gets to its feet* Deew...
Trey: Alright Chimchar! Ember one more time!
Chimchar: *stumbles forward, and rears its head back, as if to spew fire... but then falls onto its back*
Trey: Chimchar!?
Chimchar: Chaaar... @.@
Mana: WE DID IT!!! *grabs Rose and hugs her* WOO~!

*Both Whip and his Eevee stare, unblinkingly, at the incredulous victory, and through the shocked expression, Whip hands Eevee a Pecha berry*
Whip: That was.... How did you.....
Eevee: Vii!
*Eevee pounces and joins their victory hug, whilst Whip limbers over to Trey*
Whip: Now, I like to consider myself a humble person, but IN YO' FACE!

Trey: *returns Chimchar to his pokeball, before leveling a look at Whip, then Mana, and smirks* So it seems. But it did take almost all four of your Pokemon to beat me.
Mana: *puffs out cheeks* Hey...
Trey: But if I had been better, I wouldn't have lost at all, so I guess you do have some talent.
Mana: Gee, thanks. *rolls her eyes*
Trey: *walks over to Mana* But the next time we battle, victory is mine.
Mana: *smirks a bit* We'll have to see about that.
Trey: ...You're traveling to Canalave, aren't you?
Mana: How'd you know?
Trey: *gestures to Whip* Your cheerleader mentioned a fare. I assume you meant a boat fare. The fare costs about 250 poke for each person. Pretty cheap. Still. *hands over 500 poke*
Mana: Woah! H-Hey, I couldn't have won that much!
Trey: I'm feeling a bit generous.
Mana: ... *grins slyly* Or maybe you're feeling sorry 'cause you attacked my pokemon and made this fight a little less fair?
Trey: *seems to be caught off guard slightly, but regains his customary haughty look* You're the one who let them roam around like wild Pokemon.
Mana: *waves him off* Whatever. Thanks for the poke though.
Trey: No problem. *starts to walk away* Later, kid.
Mana: UGH. MY NAME IS MANA!

*Whip places his arms behind his head and treads behind Mana*
Whip: Jeez, some nerve that guy had, right? It's a good thing you told him your name, or you'd never be able to meet back up with him later~
*Before Mana says anything, Whip snatches the poke out of her hands*
Whip: Nice of him to give us this small fortune though. Even if this'll not even cover a single super potion...

Mana: Well, if you're going to hold the poke, you're also going to lead the way. Because three of my pokemon have fainted and the other one's rather hurt, so I think we should either head back to the Pokemon Center with the evil Nurse Joy or make our way to Canalave and hope there's a nearby Pokemon Center and not much tall grass.

[And shut up, I forgot about that okay? It was two in the morning and I was tired of being technical like I had been for the move set the pokemon had during the battle so nyeh!]

*Whip shudders at the thought of returning to the malevolent Nurse Joy that awaited them in Jubilife*
Whip: Alright, alright. I guess it's time for me to, once again, be the strong pillar of strength in this duo~
*Whip stretches his arms above his head in an exasperated sigh and begins taking point, Eevee following closely*

Mana: *follows closely, amused by Whip's words* Hey, remind me again when was the last time you fought a battle and won?

*Both Eevee and his owner take a sharpened arrow to the backs of their heads*
Whip: That was a low blow... It's not like I can't win a fight....

Mana: *laughs and pats Whip and Eevee on their heads* That's for making me lose that Pachirusu. No worries though. I'm sure you can win a battle~ ...eventually. >v>

*Whip angrily grips his pokeball in his hands and glares at Mana*
Whip: Why don't we go a round now...
Eevee: Vii vii.
*Eevee shakes his head at Whip, whom shrugs in agreement*

Mana: How about we just get to Canalave, yeah? We still have to deliver this package... *gestures to her backpack*

Whip: Yeah yeah...
*Whip continues on, going for the boat ride across*

(Oi Mana, mind if we just skippy-skip to Canalave?)

[That's fine~]

Mana: *follows behind*
