((This is true. I blame having still been sleepy. I also blame that for neglecting to update Fable's HP based on the damage he took.))
Both Raven and Fable continued to look upon Oberon with hatred, but as Fable's flames continued to build his head would abruptly snap to the side as his trainer uttered the words "I'm sorry" The next moment a bright blue flash would streak through the air as the Charmander was recalled. Raven was angry, but unlike Fable he was no Berserker, and he certainly wasn't a fool. In a single blow Fable had almost been struck down, and it was by luck the Zoroark hadn't finished the job a move later. One did not fight with a half broken sword when they had a dagger in their boot.
Putting Fable's ball back upon his belt with one hand, Raven qould quickly retrieve the ball directly behind it. With a simple, straight forward toss it would strike the ground...and the very air would rumble as the beast his 'other half' had previously treated like furniture appeared upon the field. A low rumble would build in Genn's throat as he looked down, barring witness to what appeared to be a particularly large version of Fable. ">Interest.<"

The beginning of the Zoroark's assault would be simple...though it would take on a surprising form. Within seconds of Midnight being sent forward the Dark-Type's form would change, and Midnight would find she was faced with a particularly large copy of herself. It wouldn't end there however. The doppleganger's eyes would glow pink, the same colour spreading to her own eyes as it invaded her mind. Images, bits and pieces of more then a thousand things all being shoved into her mind at once, attempting to crush her under the weight of so much thought. Extrasensory, an attack which could be particularly dangerous in the right hands!

Victoria would call out as the electric squirrel was called back into her pokeball. The girl would grip it tightly, she had made a mistake ...a huge mistake ...as she grip the pokeball tightly. She would then take Aella's pokeball and pocket it as she glares at the Zoroark.
"I don't submit to anyone."
Victoria would call out as she drew herself forward. She would bring her own weaponry out for a change as she held up the watch that she had been given once she had gain full acceptances into her chosen ...path. She would press two fingers into the side ...as the top would flip up ....to give her a targeting system as she squints inside of it.
This wasn't usually her style, but she had one other choice to battle this pokemon and that was ....her quagmire, with a differences of 16 and 21 ...it was going to be a hard fought battle on the best of times. Though her defensives were higher much higher ...it would take more to take her down. Though, the entire episode of having Aella ground in one shot made her paronaid, so before, she called out her back up ...she was going to give her as good a chance as possible to be able to hit.
She grin at this. In fact, if everything worked out ...she could use more than just this for her own defense. She looked at the creature as she press the 6 on her watches face.
"Though, I guess, it's my turn to fight ...because, despite that bull$#% you spout about friendship ...I am a firm believe in equal partnership in survival."
Victoria would grin ....as she aim and sent out her first shot. She wasn't sure how good her aim would be but, she wasn't going to go down easily.
The zoroark would flick his tail from side to side ...as he drops the form of the overlarge charmander to change ..into a smaller Steelix. The pokemon's head would snap his head towards his new charge as a grimace came upon his face.
He would growl the words out fully.
>Weak<
The pokemon would declare back in Genn's voice. The pokemon would even give his same look of disinterest when facing a creature that was much weaker than him ...as he would quickly open his mouth wide and gives a loud screech ...even as his eyes started to glow violet. The scream itself seemed to gain more strength because of his scream ...reaching deep ...deep into the heart of his opponent. A screech that curl into the mind of his opponent threatening to attack them from within.
This was the power of his attack ...an extrasensory in disguise.

((Driving me nuts so I have to say it. ZOROARK DOESN'T HAVE A TAIL. Instead it's got a long 'mane' of hair ending in what looks like it's old tail.))
">Oh ho ho!<" Genn rumbled mirthfully, looking far more interested then his clone...perhaps specifically because it was his clone. With eyes that smiled in place of his ridged mouth the Steel-Type would bellow ">Shouting match eh? I'm game! GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!<" He announced before breaking into a deep, rumbling cry. IT wasn't a Screech, it was't even an attack, Genn was just literally screaming at Oberon.

Oberon merely laughed at the girl's actions, a high pitched mocking sound which seemed to echo across the area. As he dart neared his form would change, and the child would find she was faced with another doppleganger of herself...though admittedly this one a far more accurate depiction. Save for bright yellow eyes and the ever present shadow.
She'd missed, and he was prepared to show her exactly what her face looked like at that moment.

(He was caught in between tranformation ...for the moment he did. Though I will admit ...I wasn't thinking about that when I wrote it, so take this an excuse.)
The twin sounds would rise and blend, but while Genn's was just sound ..the same couldn't be said of the Zoroark's screech. The attack would cut and slash inside of his opponent's head ...as finally the violet glow would die down. Leaving him feeling a bit mirth that he hadn't done more damage to his opponent as the lengthy pokemon rose as high as he could on his own body. He was stretching for length, because, this was the first pokemon he had run into so far ...that he had actually ended up smaller than.
He would then curl his coils around himself as he tuck his head inside of his own coils.
>How pathetic. Wake me ...we you call out a real challenge.<
He would let his own skin be his defense. That hard ...powerful flesh that belong to the metal of this steel type.

"GENN!" Raven's voice came out in a harsh bark, his teeth gritting between words "ICE FANG. CRUSH HIS BONES INTO GRAVEL!" Yup. Raven was still mad. Definitely mad.
Genn on the other hand would merely chuckle, shaking his head as he attempted to free it off that 'brain freeze' sensation. The thought of which merely made his chuckling grow into full blown laughter. He supposed he was about to give his opponent a real brain freeze! Maw open wide Genn would plunge towards his double, ice coating his molars and transforming them into vicious fangs. This was gonna be real cool!

The roar and those fangs would clamp nothing but air as the attack itself would end up in the dirt. The pokemon had been fooled by the illusion ...as the mini-Steelix would almost smirk as he uncoils slowly ...lazily.
>Is that the best you got? Pathetic.<
The pokemon would rise like the snake he is ...as his head would hang only slight out of his own circular coils, and then with a quickness that can only be attributed to his kind ...he would hit the ground hard with his head as he sent a splash of dirt upwards. Mud Sport normally covers an opponent with dirt to make them more resistant to electric type moves, but this one ....as his head hit the dirt ...the earth would pulse with his power. A darkness would expand outside of his strike as it went over and over like a wave towards his opponent ...as he used Dark pulse in reality.
Victoria almost laugh as she saw herself. She was a monster it would seem, and she almost curse at the lost of her attack. She was now in very real trouble as she drop her hands just a bit.
No, she would try one more time ...she only needed one more shot, and then ...she would have no other choice.
"You know, some one else might have a problem with shooting themselves."
She would aim her attack this time for her own forehead.
"But, I have never flinch at the sight of myself, nor, will I every regret ...pointing a needle at my own head. SO, if you think I am going to hesitate to shoot you ...you have another thing coming."
The girl would fire the dart, this time at her own head ....as she once more hit the 6 on her own watch. She needed to put him to sleep ...so that she had a chance to call out Serenity.
She told herself as she tries to keep from losing it at that moment ...as she recognize the real trouble she was in.

Genn would just give a shrug of his coils, utter a laugh, then curl up in defense.

Oberon would merely laugh, the image of Victoria turning semi-transparent...like a ghost.

It would work, such a simple defense as the coils kept the earth stable around him ...kept the waves from reaching their destination and Oberon hisses his anger at the lost. Though he knew for the moment he couldn't attack ....his body was still too far over extended as he drew his own coils back into himself. Then he flick his tail from side to side ...as his eyes seem to radiate the darkness within.
He would make no comment this time, he simply waited to see what he would do.
Victoria's hand started to tremble at this time ..the attack would go wide. She almost screamed ...she might have screamed ...as she saw herself go translucent ....as it grew clearer and clearer until she could see through it. SHe would push back swiftly ...almost dancing on her own feet to get away as she snatched the pokeball from her belt as she threw her upon the field.
If this failed ...she wasn't sure what she would do next as the Quagsire appeared on the field. Salacia would do one quick twirl before she let her tongue loll out as she gave a very wide and big grin as she notice that her trainer was literally trying to hide her face in the ground.

">Everything has a purpose. Suffer as I have suffered, and then revel in your own demise<" Oberon stated coldly, still using Ironclaw's own beak, or rather a copy of it, to speak the words. Shadows gathered around the Zoroark, more then before, condensing and beginning to take on solidity. ">All the world is darkness. The light is only an illusion<" Grim words, and with them the Skarmory would open one wing, releasing the attack in a powerful wave. Dark Pulse.
"Your right... the world is shrouded in darkness... that's why its up to us to spread the light!" Jasmine called out in challenge to the Zoroark's statement.
Wings flushed open, and this time, Ironclaw took skyward, concentrating on her own evasion rather than the conversation, she'd let herself fall afoul of the Zoroark and its attacks one too many times, but now she had a physical manifestation to see and to dodge, it was time to see if the Zoroark could work a set of wings like she could!
