Contaminating the Water

[If you pass then your post shall be deleted and replaced with the next to prevent cheating on pages >]

The vaporeon was hit, but it seemed to shake it off with a bit of difficulty and kicked more sand at the Shroomish and moving in for another tackle. It seemed to dance a bit as it dodged, earning another "wow" from the crowd. There were some murmurers going around the crowd, "I'm definitely coming back here again!" "Mitch HAS to see this!" "This is totally worth these prices!" The waiter seemed to smile even wider as his Vaporeon rushed towards the shroomish.

Oliver did his best to dodge the incoming sand. His eyes widened as he got another idea. He began rushing towards the Vaporeon as it used Tackle, being hit. Enduring the pain, the shroomish gave out its spores. He began to twirl and hop around the water pokemon, the powders spewing from the top of his head as he began shrouding the stage in mist. Throwing in more powder using Stun Spore, it was practically impossible to see the water pokemon now with the glistening powder obscuring the stage like a fog. The shroomish calmed himself, knowing how pressuring this combo was going to be with the control it needed. The Shroomish put all his might into his feet, jumping up above the large fog of spores. He spun, using a glowing beam of absorb. This absorb, however, did not have the force needed for a damaging attack. It didn't even touch the stage as it pulsed across the building ceiling, covering the top of the establishment with a gently moving beam, almost like a hypnotic spiral. To finish off, the Shroomish suddenly shot down from the heavens, aiming a falling tackle at the water pokemon.

Ari was just about to leave when Oliver started his ultimate performance yet, the powder on the stage completely covered the view of the Vaporeon, while the Shroomish which was still in the air. Normally since this was a battle, the moves would try to be damaging, but the Absorb he fired off didn't seem to have that intent, instead going away from were the water Pokemon seemed to be, and the entire show, seemed to be something out of a contest instead of an actual battle. She saw an appeals round once or twice, and it was as amazing and beautiful act just like this one. While the young girl's eyes shone, she neglected to notice a certain party slowly shake, and soon it would hit the button, setting herself free...

(Uh-Oh..)
The vaporeon screeched as it noticed the attack incoming, but was unsure of whether to move or not even if it could. The vaporeon's screech was silenced when the attack hit it head on. The vaporeon dropped where it was, KO'd. The waiter yelped and rushed to his pokemon, he retrieved it with a bow to the crowd. Another waited stepped in his place. The waiter smirked and asked, "That was cool, but can you handle the same pokemon twice?" he sent out a seel who clapped and twirled in a circle.

Nyx couldn't believe it! There was still more? She looked over to her Shroomish, worried for the little pokemon. "Oliver, you sure you can handle more?" She asked, knowing how much the Shroomish gave his all during the last battle. Aloysius continued to be amused at this gym's antics. He found the waiters' pokemon's tricks petty and overused, finding some respect for his irritating, naive teammate.

Oliver nodded vigorously, a bit tired but pumped with adrenaline from the experience. He had never experienced so much action in his life! Well, sure, battles were challenging, but with this, he was allowed to show off his 'artistic brilliance'. His old mentors, the Kirlias of the Forest, would definitely be proud of him if they were here. He took note of that, making sure to find a way to visit them again. He had them to thank for learning how to create such magnificent tricks, after all.

He grinned, ready to outsmart more opponents. He had more tricks up his sleeve, and after realizing how much show-offs the pokemon of this cafe was, he was more than grateful to show them a lesson on how a REAL performance was done. He hopped up to the stage, mimicking the seel's twirl and syncing them in their little dance. It was an adorable beginning to the battle.

Ari watched the spetical almost anxiously, wanting it to continue, even though normally, she detested battles but this one was really interesting. Her eyes shone as the two were dancing with each other, when the Pokeball jerked suddenly, and it slipped out of her grasp. With a clatter the red and white sphere landed on the floor and rolled slowly, almost onmiously as the button slowly rotated and started facing towards the ground. It stopped just before the buttton could click against the ground, but as Ari bent down nervously to pick it up, her fingers accidently gently pushed it, causing the final push that it needed to release the Pokemon. She looked shockly as a white light appeared and streaked across the room before going in a cup of water through a door, into a different room. If you listened closely, a small splashing sound could be heard. "Um...excuse me." She mumbled, grabbing the Pokeball and quickly dashed towards the room, hopefully before and damage could be done.

[Just hope that Ari can get Hope before anybody is mentally scarred by this place XD]

Hope had landed in a confused chef's cooking pot. The chef began to swear in a different language, then in english he shouted, "My soup! My beautiful soup!" he brought the carvannah out with a spatula and flipped it onto the floor. Enraged, he shouted, "You will rue the day you ruined Chef Ramsey's soup! Special tonight: Carvannah Carnival!"

The seel clapped happily at the shroomish's performance. This one seemed to be a better sport. It then put on a determined face and took in a deep breath, it blew it back out except the temperature was below normal and the breeze was more powerful, Icy Wind! It growled cutely as it did so.

Oliver endured the cold breeze, spinning rapidly in it. The cold wind embraced the Shroomish's twirling, turning into a small, but effectively cold twister. The mushroom launched itself towards the seel, surrounded by its cold twister-like armor. He unleashed a Stun Spore, the gold-like spores joined the small, blue frosts of the twister and making a blue and yellow combination of colors as he sent himself towards the Seel in a Tackle.

Aloysius' ears perked up, hearing something go into one of the doors. He saw a bright flash or light dash from a pokeball on the floor and into one of the rooms, a splash following as a girl rushed after it. He smirked, hopping off of his trainer's head and onto the ground. Watching all this 'dazzling' nonsense was getting a bit boring. Surely a quick little exploration would be alright. He snuck off the stage, following the girl into the kitchen. He brought a paw to his mouth, stifling a laugh as he saw a chief cursing out a Carvanha. He remained hidden behind a few counters.

Even as Hope got flung out of the pot, she could only laugh at the Chef's pathetic antics. But when the cook threatened to make a meal out of her, the laughs became a satistic smirk, "Car, Carvanha. Car car." Try me. I'll make soup out of you first. With a little blood mixed in. At this moment, Hope splashed into the puddle, causing the still warm soup to splash into the Chef's eyes, and then jumped around trying to take bites out of crazy Ramsey.

Ari dashed towards the door and tried to flung it open. It seemed to be jammed, and looking down there was a regular fish on the ground plugging the gap between the floor and the door. The chaos of Hope's pissed off ramapge, seemed to have thrown the fish at the door, locking it closed. Even though it would take quite a while, Ari bent down to try to push the fish away, when she read something that almost made her heart stop.

"Ramsey's Kitchen. Unautorized personels, keep out!"

[Hope is best Chef, no questions asked.]

The seel was damaged by the attack, it cried out but didn't try to pull the audience in like the other seel did. It countered with another icy wind. It seemed to be growing a bit tired though.

Ramsey seemed to grow red with anger and took out a pokeball, "SimiSage! Grab that Carvanah!" A simisage climbed onto the counter and hollered at the Carvannah it leered at it before a glow of energy appeared above it and launched towards the carvanah, it was seed bomb!

Aloysius frowned, seeing the door locked from the inside. He took a few steps back, deciding to try and watch the scene in the kitchen through the small windows. He smirked, seeing a human clad in an odd uniform attempting to turn a Carvanha into a stew.

Oliver dodged the attack this time, preparing for another trick. He spat out several seeds, each one having a gap between them due to the surprising size they had. He spat them at specific times and directions, causing the seeds to burst open and release the life-sucking vines they contained. They exploded at a near-instantaneous rate, causing the vines to tangle to each other. Soon enough, there was now a large, life-sucking net falling down towards the Seel. The Shroomish decided to finish off the performance by using Absorb, sending the beam forth to prevent the Seel from dodging.

Hope quickly flopped to the side to dodge the energy ball. The great news was even though it was super effective, she was a pretty hard target to hit in both the water and even land. The Carvanha splashed around until she got in close perimiter of the Simisage, and attempted to Bite the Simisage, and from her Carvanha buddies, she heard that Simisages are slightly peppery, but have plenty of flavor. Maybe she would be able to try it out, see if they were just bragging or lying, or they really tasted pretty good. Chef Hope was in the house, and she was ready to start cooking, and maybe add a bit of Simisage spice to the Ramsey meal.
