Welcome to Gaia! ::

The Rocket already in the room was standing in one of the squares, arms crossed over her chest, and looking relaxed, the orders she gave the two pokemon facing one another were merely spoken calmly, but despite, the pokemon obeyed in an instant.
She was an averaged sized young woman, her dark blond hair pulled back into a tight high pony tail.
Her posture was high, carrying the Rocket uniform with dignity.

On the arena before her was an Umbreon, crouched low, and facing a large Absol with dark eyes.
Controlling both of their moves, With Umbreon’s high defense, and Absol’s high attack, it was a good opportunity to see what the two were capable of. Neither of them looked hurt, even though they look as if they have been at it for a while.
Next to the girl floated a dark colored Shuppet, watching the fight with large eyes.

Faleen glance over her shoulder when she heard the door open, blinking at the man who had stepped in… someone she’s seen around a couple of times, but once again she couldn’t put a name to the face.
She blinked a couple of times at him. Eyes moving over the arm held up in a sling… that’s right, she had heard there was a mission and Rockets got hurt. Maybe he was one of the Rockets on that mission.
“hello.” She greeted, simply, sounding puzzled.

With a light incline of her head, Faleen watched the man make his way over to the wall, hazel eyes not once leaving him blinking slowly in a way that said the was thinking carefully to herself.
Next to her hair, the dark Shuppet swishing from one side of her head to the other, watching the man.
A bow of her head when she turned back to her pokemon, meeting the perked eared glance of her Umbreon, and the stoic, calming stare of her Absol, Faleen opened her mouth once again to continue her instructions, only to be silenced when the man asked if she wanted a training partner.
The glance toward him sparked more interest in her eye at the question, a moment consideration before her lips parted in a welcome smile.
“If you are offering, I would be very interested, there is only so much I can do with the same two pokemon”

"Grunt Faleen" she told him, putting a hand on her hip with a slight grin, waiting as her two pokemon made their way back to her before she pulled out the pokeballs and returned each one, leaving her standing alone on her end of the field with three pokeballs in her hand.
Rank first, then name.
"And you?"

A Scientist hum? that was interesting.
he sent out his first pokemon, and Faleen looked down to her own to consider who to send out against the ghost type, already feeling confidence about this, dark were strong against ghost.
But when the scientist started calling out to his pokemon over something, she looked up in time to see the driftfloon drop a weight and fly off through a wall.
"... uh, so maybe not that pokemon?" she asked, blinking over at Mau.

Her eyebrows arched a little as she looked back to the scientist, feeling a little embarrassed for him that his pokemon behaved in such a manner. she would be humiliated if any of her did something like that.
shaking her head a little in response to his apology, eyes glancing down to the pokeball he picked next. she had made her choice, and was holding a pokeball in her hand.
"For real this time" she said with a soft smile, tossing the pokeball out toward the arena.
Popping open and expelling the pokemon in a bright red light,
"Umbreon!" the pokemon barked when the light broke away, revealing the dark Eon. the Umbreon standing tall, large red eyes turned on the other trainer, waiting for his opponent to be released.

Umbreon bucked back when the Toxic attack hit him. growling as the poison slid down his sides and soaked into his skin,
already he was feeling the heavy affects of the sickening toxins in his system, but for now he was able to keep himself high and strong in his stance. his eyes flashed back up to the Jolteon, fur along his back bristling as his lips curled up in a soft growl.

Faleen couldn't help a little grin, even as her Umbreon became poisoned. because of his synchronized ability, the Joltion its self would feel the same affects of the poison.
"Umbreon use confuse ray" she spoke to the dark type.
if there was one thing she could hope for, was that the Umbreon's natural high defense would help keep it up longer from the poison. but a little added disadvantage never hurt.

upon his command the Umbreon bowed his head down, eyes opening wide as they began to glow, along with his rings, a spinning beam shot out toward the Jolteon.

Jerking his head away when fragments of dust and rock flew into his eyes. growling again and shaking his head, using a paw to scratch at his closed eye.
"Faint attack" he heard his master's voice speak.
He obeyed the moment he was able to get an eye open, lifting his head high before he flashed out of view, only for a few seconds, and he was back, right next to Jolteon, driving into her with a snarl. the poison sinking deeper into his body, causing him to feel a stink of illness.

Faleen moved her gaze from the battle, instead looking over at the older man that was commanding the electric type. tilting her head softly, noticing his arm in a sling again... she wondered for a moment how that had happened. knowing she would have to politely ask after the match was over
