Rai panted, darting back towards the arena. He had left after his first match and went to change outfits after his first victory. It being earlier in the day and cooler, Rai felt a bit nippy & would refuse to take the chance of getting sick. He now had on a navy blue with white sleeves varsity jacket, black skinny jeans, a basic maroon tee shirt, and a pair of white boots. In his right hand he held a frap of caramel flavoring, taking small sips from the icy medium sized treat. "Good I made it." He panted, reaching the field. His next opponent was Arcen? "Who's... Arcen?" He questioned aloud. Though he would look across the field and see another student standing there. "You're Arcen!?" Rai called out waving at his opponent. "Why didnt I know your name?" He would mumble to himself. Rai would then wish his opponent good luck and hope for another good battle, like with Adriel in the first round. [/style]

[Arcen Larush]

Arcen was waiting. Alacer sat on his shoulder, ears perked, listening for their opponent, rested and ready for battle. Upon seeing the blonde-haired boy rush into the stadium, Arcen fixed his posture to stand up straight and take in information on this next opponent. He seemed a bit scattered, perhaps somewhat vain. But nonetheless, he was respectful. And Arcen appreciated it a lot after his last battle. He nodded to answer Raize's question, and wondered why the boy looked so surprised to see that his name was Arcen. Then he proceeded to bow his head in response to the boy's good luck, returning the wishes without words. "Now, go on, Alacer," he whispered. The Zubat's keen hearing picked up his words with ease, and she flew up into the sky, ready for whatever pokemon Raize might throw out.

"Alright Alastair, lets show em what we've got!" Rai called out, releasing the pokeball into the air. Shooting forward a blast of energy, the pokeball would release the one and only, Alastair the ambipom! "Ambi!" Alastair smiled playfully, looking at the zubat. "Alastair, use nasty plot!" Rai called out to his pokemon. It would glow with a dark and sinister aura, though its cheerful smile would still penetrate the shadows. The aura faded quickly, having boosted Alastair's special attack two stages. "Get ready for what ever happens next." He told his ambipom. Its silk scarf would flow gently in the visiting breeze as Alastair stood firmly with a smile. "Ambi!" It replied anxiously. [/style]

BATTLE MOD!
Aphrodite.

Raize, there are no double stat moves. I'm going to have to ask you to edit your previous post. I apologize for the inconvenience.

[Arcen Larush]

OOC: Sorry I been out lately... Almost no muse whatsoever... probably not gonna be a great post...

Nodding a bit to acknowledge the start of the battle, and feeling somewhat impressed at the Ambipom's Nasty Plot, Arcen made a note to look up more information on Ambipoms after the battle. It would hardly be one of his first trips to the library to look up more about his recent opponents.

Alacer clicked angrily at the Ambipom. She hated these kinds of pokemon and people alike. The ones who were always jolly, not giving a care in the world. Oh, she'd show him... Arcen's words cut into her thoughts. Her sharp ears easily picked up his whispered commands, "Air Cutter." She flipped up higher into the air before using her wings to send sharp gusts of air towards the Ambipom.

Time for him and Rai to show their stuff. "Alastair, lets get back to the basics! Use a powerful swift attack!" Rai called out to his partner. The two tailed monkey would fire two rays of stars towards the incoming blades of air, cutting through them and darting straight for the bat pokemon. [/style]

[Arcen Larush]

Arcen bit his lip. The Swift knocked aside the Air Cutter, and it was coming straight for Alacer. It would be easier to just dodge, but could Alacer keep up with the monkey's cutting speed? "Alacer," he hissed, somewhat louder now, "Air Slash, followed up with Confuse Ray!" With masterful grace, the Zubat sent an even more powerful air attack then before smashing into the Swift, sending the golden attack spiraling back towards the Ambipom, with added force. As soon as the Swift was being hurled back, she focused on sending a tumbling energy pouring out from her and surrounding the Ambipom with a thick mire of confusing stimuli that the Ambipom would have to find a way to work out.

Countering with anything like another swift would be redundant and help nothing. "Nice one." Rai complimented the opponent, showing great sportsmanship. Alastair would turn back towards his trainer. "Ambi!" He grinned. "Haha." Rai laughed, taking a quick sip of the Carmel frap. " "Alright, lets try what we tried before! Use thunder to strike through the swift and counter the confuse ray!" Rai threw commands out. "Ambi!!" Alastair would cry out, releasing a number of bolts towards the swift. Instantly each one would strike through the stars, turning them all into nothingness. The bright light of the thunder was something Alastair had learned to cope with as well. Having his eyes closed, Alastair wouldnt even see the flashing light of confuse ray. He had put so much charge into his thunder that it continued forward towards the zubat. [/style]
