[size=-3]In reserve: Holly (F) <Blaze>, HP 72% / EN 30%[/size]

After the brutal exchange of attacks last round, both pokémon are ready to... do the exact same thing this time! Notorious hurls one seed bomb after another at Kuzenbo, the psyduck striking back with bursts of psychic energy. After a minute or so of energetic scuffle, the pokémon have to stop and get their wits back, nursing new bruises or, in Notorious' case, a splitting headache. It's been a brief, brutal fight, and both pokémon are looking nearly down for the count already--but neither appears to have really pulled ahead in terms of damage.

Outside, unnoticed by absolutely everyone, the unnaturally bright sun dims, leaving in its wake... still-very-bright desert sunshine.

Water Pulse X3 if need

 

[Negrek]

"Notorious, come back!" Gzhoom yells, and the passimian disappears in a flash of red light. Kuzenbo sees a flash of consternation pass across Notorious' face, but there's nothing the passimian can do to resist the pokéball's recall beam. A few seconds later, another pokéball cracks open and spills the psyduck's next opponent into the arena. Holly blinks around at the pyramid, disoriented and hardly remembering the place where the whole battle began. She only has a second to gather herself, though; the referee sounds her whistle, and the next round begins!

[size=-3]In reserve: Notorious (M) <Receiver>, HP 10% / EN 55%[/size]

Holly's still a bit off-balance, but fortunately her first command's an easy one. Breathing fire is almost as familiar to her as, well, breathing, and she sprays a flamethrower square in Kuzenbo's face.

The psyduck doesn't even blink, and a second later Holly's knocked on her tail by a painful burst of water. Even worse than the water itself, though, is the high-pitched whining tone that accompanies it. It wakes irrational panic in the charmander, her confusion worsening, and when she tries to stand it turns out her equilibrium's thrown off and she immediately falls over sideways again. Another water pulse slams into the struggling charmander, and she whines unhappily, struggling all the harder to get up, and having no luck whatsoever. One more water pulse, and Holly finally stops strugglig, lying on her side and panting. Maybe if she just stays still... if she just relaxes... she'll be able to figure out what's going on here.

Holly curls her tail in under her belly to protect her flame, closing her eyes and trying to focus. She needs to stop panicking and get herself back under control, no matter that Kuzenbo is still standing there, impassive as ever, preparing to soak her with another water pulse. Holly flinches as the cold, wet attack hits home, and what's worse, the high-pitched screech that accompanies it leaves her ears ringing and puts her in another temporary daze. Despite her best efforts, she isn't feeling terribly calm, but she has to do her best to get another attack in. Otherwise Kuzenbo's going to be able to simply soak her into unconsciousness.

Holly slowly uncurls, schooling herself to take her time, to stop and rest whenever she starts feeling dizzy or anxious, and to ignore the ball of water gathering between Kuzenbo's hands, promising another attack to come. She just needs to take her time and concentrate, take her time... and concentrate...

Holly takes a deep breath and finally spits out a column of fire--one that's a bit shaky and uncertain at first, but which grows more ferocious as Holly's confidence is restored. The flamethrower engulfs Kuzenbo, and the psyduck is still standing when it dissipates, leaving Holly to think that she might not have finished the psyduck after all. But then Kuzenbo slowly begins to lean... and lean more... and ultimately tips over on his side, eyes wide but staring and clearly unconscious.
