The soft scent of mint fills the somewhat humid air within this eerie space. A large, wooden table within an otherwise blank, white space supports little more than the two brave (And crazy) battlers, and a porcelain goliath within which rests a startlingly large amount of mint tea - and even it's own apparent ecosystem, as suggested by 5 small fish darting about within. Below the table nothing but darkness can be seen - and noone is willing to spot a look down there, and only gods know how the league got everyone -here-. Something about a left at the vending machine.. A conspicuous Linoone leans against the side of the giant tea cup looking rather satisfied in her ability to track down such oddities, munching a cookie in front of Meowth who could nearly fill his own gargantuan cup the way his mouth watered eyeing the sugary treat. In the distance somewhere around the cup, at least one voice can be made out.
"You know when you said all the tea I can drink this isn't really what I had in mind...... Well I know that! But you could specify you know?.... It's false advertising is what I'm saying, just because there's a ref shortage- You know what, whatever, tea is tea. Get outta here huh?"
With some heavy footsteps and a soft mechanical humming a Riolu decked out with some rather standout purple paraphernalia buzzes around the corner riding what looks like a giant floating tea biscuit, with two more in tow. "Ah, hello ladies" she says, smirking and lifting her glasses to shoot a glare at the rather speechless Mike. "And ah! Hello, Linoone~ It's been awhile~ ...Aaah would you look at these ridiculous things? Keeping with the theme and all that. One wonders where the league gets all this money, some kind of underground Pokédollar printing ring... Nevermind that. Hop on and let's get this party started, shall we?....... Mike, they're not real biscuits, please stop trying to eat it."
A short trip up the looming side of the tea cup later and Mike and Linoone have taken their places at opposing ends of the minty pool, their magic flying tea biscuits latching themselves onto the rim securely, while the Riolu floats high above the centre of the pool for a proper birds-eye view of the action.
"Let's have a good fight, now you two. And don't fall off the cup, my insurance doesn't cover that."
And with a wave of her not-so-league-standard purple and yellow chequered flag, the match begins~
With a small white flash, Linoone reveals her first Pokémon; the pastel pink, blue, and ever blocky Porygon appears and promptly lets itself levitate just above the liquid surface, bobbing it's head adorably into the tea like a drinky-bird assessing it's content.
Mike responds with a water dweller as his Pokéball flashes directly into the tea to reveal the small form of a Remoraid - whom immediately darts about, intrigued by this liquid he has been released into. Before anything else, however, Death Cannon has a glare at the small fish; assessing it through it's vast database and receiving information about it's opponent. The creases of it's low-definition form sparkle and light up as strains of data are obtained and stored in it's temporary files. With equal defensive prowess, Cannon's system rolls a randomisation algorithm before settling on downloading information on special weak points.
{SpAtk +1}
Understandably disturbed by the equally disturbing named Death Cannon's glare, Remoraid returns it in force - locking himself onto the virtual critter and planting himself for his next attack..... For what it was worth on a mostly stationary target, anyway. Cannon takes a more direct approach; shifting itself around manipulating the space around it, cannon forms three different spheres in front of it. Each a different colour and crackling with a strange, artificial energy. Finishing by lacing the three together with a crackling energy binding line between each, Cannon pauses for a second before nudging almost cutely towards the unfortunate fishie; The three energy orbs suddenly rocketing towards Remoraid at frightening speed. The three orbs all burst with a different force, searing, electrocuting and freezing their victim all at once. Remoraid squirms and darts about as his body is assaulted by the elements, and Cannon looks about as smug as it's computerised self can look.
-=Remoraid ~ -1E / -16HP=-
-=Death Cannon ~ -7E=-
Remoraid isn't very happy, that hurt. More than it should have, actually - can that thing even drink tea? It shouldn't be this upbeat. Fuming, his fins crackle with a weak electrical force - about the most a fish could hope to muster, but enough. He doesn't hesitate to fire it off, a bundled packet rocketing out of the tea up towards Cannon. Before it strikes, however, Cannon quickly analyses and responds - It's body takes a majestic sheen just as the energy strikes. It sticks for a moment, in a tense limbo, before rocketing straight back the way it came. Before he can react, Remoraid is struck by his own attack as it ricochets harmlessly off Cannon - his muscles tensing and locking down as the electricity courses through him. His darting is severely slowed, and things are looking even worse..
-=Remoraid ~ -3E=-
-=Death Cannon ~ -4E=-
Poor Remoraid can barely move at the moment, and Cannon is taking it upon itself to bask in the unfortunate situation he is now in. It takes it upon itself to take it's time creating more energy globules for another strike of Tri Attack - Remoraid only able to able as he desperately tries to gain control of his stiff body and aching all over. Another flick of Cannon's nose and once more the faux-elemental strike is flying right at Remoraid. He has no time to react - it strikes true and the struggling fish simply can't redirect himself from the brunt of the energy. He squeals and squirms and the energies ravage his body.
*Critical Hit* Cannon can almost be heard laughing and it bobs up and down nonchalantly - this fish is no threat, this is a joke-
but suddenly, a ring of delicious, minty tea rockets up from the depths. Remoraid has finally found his bearings enough to fire his attack; a perfectly aimed Water Pulse which slams itself into Cannon washing it back as the sonic waves forming the rings of water surround and pass all around. Cannon bobs and waves unstably - beeping erratically as its systems attempt to regain bearings. The sonic waves appear to have disrupted it, and Cannon begins to almost stumble in the air. Remoraid smiles to himself - that'll learn it.
