fifth ; video/action for outskirts of Azalea ; pokémon pile!

[ You are greeted, first of all, with an extreme closeup of a Quagsire. So extreme, in fact, that Tagalong may have left a smudge of slime on the corner of the lens as she turns it around. The camera pans around to reveal an open area, then jars briefly as the camera-Quagsire plops down to a sit.

Once settled, it's easy to make out Cliffumper on one end of the area, his Tauros, Rebel, on the other. ]


You ready for this, Reb? We haven't done this in a while. I don't want you gettin' rusty.

[ The Tauros snorts indignantly, lowering his head. Rusty? He'll show you rusty! ]

Come on, then!

[ Rebel charges, running full-tilt for his trainer. Cliff sets himself, digging his feet in. At the last moment, he catches the Tauros by the horns, Rebel's momentum sending him sliding back a few yards. The Autobot holds his ground, though, and once he comes to a stop, he pushes the pokémon back. Rebel digs his hooves in, pushing back against his trainer.

It's a brutal reverse tug-of-war of sorts. Neither willing to give ground, both trying to force the other into a corner. This goes on for a few moments before Cliff twists, trying to force Rebel into a headlock. The Tauros, is wise to his game, however, and wrenches free of Cliffjumper's grasp. Cliff looks mildly surprised and pleased about this, but Rebel doesn't give his trainer a second. He powers forward, driving his head into his trainer's stomach, effectively winding him.

Another headbutt sends Cliffjumper sprawling back, and he lands unceremoniously on his rear. ]


Oof-! Okay, okay! You're not rusty! I take it back.

[ He casts a glance at his Heracross, who is lounging nearby ] You wanna go a round?

[ Moxie studiously ignores him, and he shrugs. At that moment, a green-and-yellow blur streaks into the clearing and pounces on Cliff- it's his Electrike, tail wagging so fiercely his whole body wiggles. Followed shortly by his Haunter, who piles on top of the Autobot as well. Not long after, Rebel obviously decides, "oh, why not", and flops on Cliffjumper too. ]

What is this? Get me while I'm down, is that it?

[ The 'gear goes clattering to the ground as Tagalong decides she wants to join in on the fun. The bodily throws herself at the pile of pokémon. The last thing we hear from Cliffjumper before the feed ends is a strangled: ]

Help!

[Lottie's just wandering with Princess and Beau when she hears Cliff. Heading over, she manages to see Tag tackle the others.]

Gladly.

[Beau hops up onto Cliff's shoulder, since he's much taller and gets comfortable. Lottie just giggles]

I don' think jus' 'cause she's a fightin' type means she's gotta like fightin'. She might jus' be good at it.

[She pats his arm where there's no slime]
