Jasmine's ear tweaked suddenly... a merchant?
"If you're that certain you're going to win, then I don't suppose you'd mind wagering your expertise as a merchant to help us find something we're looking for?"
Jasmine sought to close in on the deal here... but of course, that meant as the boy said, he had items to help if they couldn't make their moves count...
But now, they were leaping to action, certainly using their speed to their advantage!
The Poliwhirl was one thing, Dive took two turns and wasn't the most accurate move in the world, but the Ninetales looked dead on with its confuse ray...
Wait... log flume ride...
"Wait a second, if you're hopping on the log river, then you need to pose for your picture!" She waved suddenly at the Lampent, and Burnout took his signal, his fire burning to life... it was going to be a longshot, but if Jasmine could get the attention of the boys and their pokémon to look just then...
They'd see the blinding white light that blared out of his dome in the face of their attacks!
((EDIT: Lol... makes sense I WOULD get the Poliwhirl, but not the Ninetales...))

Victoria would shrug at that.
"A battle of items .....would be a battle of resources. Yours will eventually go out, but no matter how this battle ends ...as long as their is no death on my end ...we can fight another. You on the other hand, could only take so many defeats before it all run out."
Jasmine had of course hit on the fact that this boy was a merchant. That meant, that he was worth something to them ....this time, and she was trying to make her deal. But, this boy thought he was smart ...smarter than her, and that didn't sit well with the girl at all.
Her eyes were locked on him as she would point something out.
"I can have your resources, and with a medic on my side ...it means that I am still in a better situation. Especially considering that a Quagsire's dream ability is unaware ...that makes all the adjustments your partner gains as a member of Strike ...completely useless."
She had learned that from the tournament.
Strike became stronger, probably both members ...now that it wasn't dulled as much. THough it wouldn't matter, Salacia would ignore such advancements ....though that didn't mean that Jasmine and her pokemon wasn't still in trouble.
"Don't look down on the advantage, and besides, I have to let you use those items."
"I am not exactly helpless either, and as long as I don't kill you ...anything goes."
The girl would smile dangerously. A tactic student whom have fought a Strike, and even now ...she saw no reason to run from a new battle.
The flash of light would make Salacia blink away as well. She was looking at the water type as a threat when the fire type had made the pretty colors that caught her eyes for that moment ....the flash of light though from the Lampent.
She had her eyes closed, but whether it had been enough time for the confusion to work was a good question overall.

[Salacia is Confused!]
"CHEESE!" The cry came united as both Leap and his Trainer snapped together, each with an arm on the other's back as they gave the victory sign with their fingers. An instant later there would be a loud scream of "MY EYES!" And the two would be sent running in circles.
That had worked a little too well for what it was...
The other boy on had however closed his eyes, as had his partner. "An intelligent merchant doesn't make wagers. A bet can result in a substantial profit, however the risk is equally great of significant loss. Why wager what you can sell? Be it material or verbal, all things have a price tag when the right offer is presented" He stated, his voice firm as he adjusted his tie this time.
It was then that Victoria spoke...and both boy's would be stopped in there tracks. "Strike?" The blue haired boy asked, tilting his head faintly off to one side in confusion.
In the same stroke the boy's companion nearly dropped his glasses, hair becoming dishelved. Coughing slightly, the boy immediately began fixing his appearance as he spoke "Neither I nor my partner are members of the Academy or Organization at this time. Our goal here as stated by the invitation is to gain entry" The boy said holding up a small letter removed from his vest pocket. It seemed not all their opponents this day would be fellow students!
"Now as for you 'allowing' us to use items, first you have to be able to actually..." The merchant began to add, only to have a hand clamped over his mouth.
"Less talky more fighty! This is a battle not a debate!" The blue haired boy called out, and as he released his companion it would be to grab his other. Locking arms with his Poliwhirl the boy would begin spinning rapidly in place, literally throwing the Water-Type at his opponents! "FLY MY POLIWHIRL! FLY!" He shouted, a big dumb grin spread wide across his features.
This of course received a groan from both Merchant and Ninetales, each placing a extremity over their face. "Percival, attempt minimal damages. None is optimal" The boy would eventually state, unable to watch the gong show going on before him. To that, the Ninetales would simply sit there and wait.

That stun Victoria more than she is willing to admit. She never ...not once would have thought that these two were still trying to get in ....a Ninetails might not be all that rare of a pokemon to get if you can get your hands on a fire stone, but a Poliwhirl. That wasn't your normal every day starter pokemon .....and she of course would assume they were a bit more advance.
The girl would almost blanch as she heard the boy start to talk about being bought.
There was a lot more ways then one to break a merchant that then, and she might have got into a argument with him about it ...if his partner hadn't shut him up and reminded them both what was at stake here.
The girl would cross her arms.
"Salacia?"
She would ask ...as the Quagsire was tottering on one foot and then the other. SHe was completely confused, but she wasn't taken back by it too much. HOw as her confusion going to be that big of a differences then her normal not listening state .....probably none at all. But she could hope.
"Salacia ...I need you to concentrate on my voice."
She calls as the Quagsire would turn her head to look at Victoria. Though it wasn't exactly pointing in the right direction and was pointed more towards Jasmine.
Nope there would be no differences at all.
"Okay ...turn your head to the side and then use Water Gun towards the Poliwhirl. We need to stop it's flight."
SHe would tell her ....as Salacia even half confused would turn and lick her tongue out at the girl and in her confusion turn a completely circle before firing off her water gun ...at the NINETAILS.
It would work ...sorta.

Jasmine watched the oncoming reaction, and it certainly worked on one half of the crew at least...
The others...
She looked at the Ninetales and the boy, they were a cool pair together, and with the confusion revealed, their ambition was to join, eh...?
Jasmine spoke up again, "Well, what it we have something you could use to join the Academy?"
"Or rather, something only a student could obtain, that would assist you both?"
"If we had something like that, would you be interested in trading?" She enquired, testing the water, not wanting to give it away just entirely yet...
She had to intrigue him, draw him out...
[Jasmine!]
The girl snapped back to realise there was a flying Poliwhirl rushing toward them!!
She grimaced, well, this was one way to interrupt their attacks!
It would force their hands, but they had to attack!
"Burnout, Energy Ball!"
The Lampent rumbled, flame pulsing and bubbling inside his dome as the Poliwhirl flew faster and faster towards them! He had no idea how this would work this attack, his first attempt at it!
But suddenly, the flame erupted, the lid flew off his head, and as it died away, a green ball of his energy was now formed, one that his tiny arms extended for, grabbing and flinging at the incoming Poliwhirl!
((Whee, work post~))

Millia stepped into the room and seeing a battle going on she stepped to the side more focused on her own reason for being here. She looked about for the one she was meant to battle when spotting no one she sighed and tapped her foot waiting, she didnt mind the wait she just had things to do places to be as she didnt want to be stuck waiting forever on someone who wouldnt show. She held the pokeball that held her precious first pokemon and she would plan out her battle with each step.

(9 - 8 ) + (13 - 13) = 1 DMG
Salacia HP: 25/26
Legs held close, arms at his side in somewhat of an angle, the Poliwhirl flew through the air as easily as he would have the water. Bulbous eyes narrowed, the Pokemon actually managed to look serious as he neared the glowing green orb. It would be at the last instant the Poliwhirl would release a thin jet of water, blasting himself higher then the ball and flipping over it. Arms back, landing on one knee, Leap would end the little display with a rather dramatic landing.
"Thatta boy!"The sportier of the two youths cheered; Leaps reply coming in the form of a V for Victory pose.
Moments later the pair would cringe, both Leap and Percival simultaneously wincing alongside their trainers. They weren't certain how Salacia had managed that, how it was even possible, but regardless it didn't look remotely comfortable.
Looking down, the Merchant child adjusted his glasses, clearly attempting to ignore what he'd just witnessed "Such an item doesn't exist. One student cannot bring in another, the approval of a full member of the Organization being required for entry" The boy would state firmly, at least based on his own understanding of the scenario...and admittedly even that was formed primarily on here say "Further more we already have that opportunity before us. We simply have to defeat three teams comprised of current students, or win this little Tournament to gain entry."
"NO TALKIE!" The boy's partner suddenly shouted, shoving a cupcake into the well dressed child's face, and an instant later tossing what appeared to be a lemon tart in Jasmine's general direction! "Leap get em both with Bubble!" The boy called, dramatically pointing forward, much like a look-out yelling 'land-ho!'
"Be prepared to receive my dry-cleaning bill" The merchant muttered, straightening his tie as he glared at his partner. "Percival, let us eliminate the ghost first. Extrasensory" The child commanded, gesturing far more casually then his teammate.
Given the order, Percival's eyes began to glow gold, a light of the same colour beginning to cloak his body. For a moment this energy would build and swell, until with a twitch of his many tails he would release it. Bands of golden energy would spring forward, a pale rainbow glimmer appearing between them as the psychic aura surged forward in a wave toward the Lampent.
As always, Leap and his trainers tactics would be both less refined, and a little strange. Running forward the blue haired boy would suddenly hug his Poliwhirl from behind, squeezing the Water-Type tighter and tighter until a cloud of bubbles began spraying forward from center of his spiral marked stomach!

((Whoo, one handed post~ kinda surprised I'm the first one replying back, truthfully been dreading this one, lol))
Jasmine looked on, herself wondering about Victoria's quagsire, but not allowed the luxury of deliberating or even checking on the girl it seemed, not before the other side were keen to pick apart her offer...
"But that's precisely what I'm offering. We cannot induct you, but we each have a Professor, myself two-" She was cut off promptly as she tried to dodge a lemon tart, but only being able to turn slightly away before it impacted the side of her face.
She staggered a moment, then finally, turned back, her wrappings luckily keeping her bandages clean, but she'd certainly felt that a little heavier than the privateering boy.
Regardless however, she couldn't complain.
She didn't have time, they were aiming at both of them... The Ninetales... And the other Poliwhirl.
No.
Wait.
NOT the Poliwhirl.
The boy was the one who was directing the things bubbles and blasting them everywhere!
A plan erupted in her head as she looked at the amphibious creature in his arms and the Ninetales right aside him...
The trick with Burnout's light... Maybe, just maybe...
It was a long shot, but still...
The effort had to be two pronged, and it had to be quick, she'd already seen the boy fall for her trick once, there was no guarantee it would work a second time, but still...
"Don't look left!"
The girl suddenly yelled at the sporty boy with the Poliwhirl, pointing suddenly in the direction of the other boy and his Ninetales!
And then, she gave the look to Burnout, who took his cue!
Burnout responded just a second within the girls point, as he lit up brightly, but not to try and blind both combatants, the Ninetales he would need to withstand its attack as best he could, but he concentrated his radiance as he lit bright white and focused it upon the surfer boy and his Poliwhirl.
They needed to throw him off balance, make his body turn in that direction, and make him take the Poliwhirl with him!
They were going to try and make him fire upon his own comrade and his Ninetales!
((Roll 1, Jasmine's Diversion, Roll 2, Burnout's Blinding))
((Edit: I have no idea what outcome to drag from those rolls, lol, I'll leave how creative this was and how successful this was to you))

She held the pokeball that held her precious first pokemon and she would plan out her battle with each step. (Sorry for the long wait ....I have been busy) A voice would answer her then ....one that didn't seem to belong to any one or thing. As it would declares lightly and with a sort of a laugh in it's voice.
"Welcome to the Battle room."
"This is the final trial before you can become part of your chosen team.
A battle to see if you are as good with your pokemon .....as you are on your test."
The voice declares happily.
"SO, I have to ask ...what temperature do you want this battle? Cool ......tutorials, or Red Hot ....No tutorials?"
It joked as it said those words.

Salacia's attack would stop as her neck went further than her body would allow. The loud cracking noise would echo around the area as she looked at her trainer a bit weird.
"I can't wait for this confusion to wear off."
Victoria would add ....even as it would seem that Jasmine had stepped into the field of battle for her pokemon. The girl herself was well known for that, but, the way that Jasmine got involved made her actually blanch.
No wonder she was a mummy on it's last legs.
She would simply shake her head as she would look at her own pokemon, and decided that there was no sense in giving an command.
"Salacia?"
She would simple state to get her pokemon's attention as the Quagsire would unbend her neck and would seem to twist all the way around making a small tornado with her body or a moment as she stopped ...took one look at Victoria and would drop to her knees dry heaving as the girl would nearly jump since she was pointing at her.
"Don't you throw up on me!"
Victoria screams out. This is probably the world's strangest dodge.

(20 - 10) + (9 - 12) = 7 x 2 = 14 DMG
Burnout HP: 8
(20 - 5) + (9 - 13) = 11
Salacia HP: 14
[Burnout & Salacia SPD - 1]
Bubbles snapped and popped against the Lampent's outer-casing, as well as the skin of his confused partner. As the flash of the Fire-Type faded, the reason why would become quite clear. Though they contrasted heavily with their appearance, bordering on gaudy, both boy's now appeared to be wearing a set of large, mirrored sunglasses. "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me" The merchant lad stated smugly, a smirk clear on his features.
An instant later the boy's hand would come up in the direction of his partner "9.95, plus a 3 dollar delivery charge" He stated clearly, not even looking to his partner as he said it. Giving how easily the sportier youth pulled the funds from his pocket and handed them over it was clear such things occurred often.
Unfortunately while the Merchant had seen fit to take care of his partner he'd neglected his own Pokemon. The moment the flash had gone out Percival had been momentarily blinded, causing him to lose the focus necessary for his attack. Where his partner had succeeded this time around, he had failed miserably.
In regards to this Leap and his Trainer would do...nothing. Or at least nothing normal. Suddenly the child appeared to be in possession of a Fishing Pole, and with one end tied to his Poliwhirl he managed to pick the Water-Type up, and with the line going taunt swing him about like the worlds most obscure and dangerous flail! "Oi! Looks like we got a big one!" The boy called with a grin, his Poliwhirl flailing it's arms comically as if attempting to fly.
As always the Merchant child would have a far more...practical strategy. "Percival, tails up, stay toasty." The response to which came in the form of the Ninetail's simply lifting up his tails in front of himself and watching his opponent's warily, his ears twitching on high alert.

(Umm...you lost me there Grey, I thought your roll was a 17 & 5. How did we get hit for a 20?)
(17 - 10 + 9 - 12 = 4x2 = 8dmg)
(17 - 5 + 9 - 13 = 8dmg)
(I think that is correct, but, if I am wrong, please tell me)
The hit would send her skidding backwards onto her back as the pokmeon was literally knocked off of her feet. She would scramble back up slowly with her eyes still rolling as she turns to face them ...both.
"So, you want to play fire vs. water ....aim your attack at the Ninetails this time, Salacia."
SHe could call out to her ....as the Quagsire would stand up and start spinning in place. There was a very big smile on her face ...as she stopped facing Victoria and the pokemon's mouth would open as water would run down her chin and splash heavily against the ground.
"For the love of ...turn your water gun on them."
The pokmeon smiles as she turns around and does it again as the water would leak out of her mouth ...as a small river of it would go down hill towards the ninetail.
It wasn't an impressive attack at all ...as Victoria face palmed herself.

((^^;; I hoped that would work, but gah))
Jasmine grimaced, looking at the setup there as Burnout was pushed back in the mid-air, his flame dimmed by whatever water went into his dome, the rest would hiss against his glass dome, steam rising from the Lampent as if illustrating the anger rising from the creature.
Jasmine meanwhile mumbled under her breath, "You get fooled once the shame's on you anyhow..."
She looked to Burnout, this offer wasn't going to be taken up anytime soon by the trainers, she just had to rely on the fire type and above all else, Victoria's Quagsire.
The offer would need to wait until this battle was finished either way...
But now, the sports boy was whirling his Poliwhirl overhead like that, and he thought it would be hard to hit flying so fast?
"Burnout?"
[Jasmine.]
"Energy Ball please."
Suddenly the Lampent flared to life. [My pleasure]
The Lampent raised the energy from the flame one filament at a time, gathering into his waiting spindly arms as the ball began to grow between them, faster and faster, growing gleen whilst his beady eyes drew on the flailing Poliwhirl... and then finally, he lobbed the Energy Ball right into the middle of the Poliwhirl's maelstrom, looking to release it all in one massive burst.
((Edit: Gaaaaah, so close, lol))

((No no, you're right Lunar. Had a bit of an off morning. I think I confused myself when I looked back to check for previous Criticals and Fumbles before doing the math. sweatdrop ))
((So to set that straight...))
Burnout HP:14
Salacia HP: 18
Leap HP: 7
(18 - 5) + (13 - 6) = 10 x 2 = 20 DMG
Percival HP: 3
Despite past failures this time not just one, but both of the girl's attacks would strike home. Caught in his side by the Energy Ball, Leap would rise higher into the air then he could ever hope to jump, the line snapping under the strain.
Percival hardly faired better as water gushed across his silky coat, soaking through and causing him to look more like a drowned rat then a regal Ninetails.
Always quick to jump, the sportier of their opponents would give a low whistle before calling into the sky "Bubble! Landing Pad mode!"
The Poliwhirl's eyes glinted the second the command was given. Shifting his weight Leap would flip once; then falling face first towards the ground, as well as his opponent, the Water-Type would begin releasing a spray of bubbles. Unlike his previous batch however these ones were larger, springier, each filled with a small amount of water rather then air. Rather then a stinging pop, the bubbles would sink to envelope anything they made contact with, trapping them inside their slushing confines...including Burnout and Salacia!
Meanwhile the merchant child was gritting his teeth, his eyes constantly darting to his bag as one hand slid closer. His expression read doubt...perhaps even a little regret towards the action he was considering. Finally, as his hand reached the flap...
...it would clench into a tight fist, the words leaving his mouth before he registered them entirely "PERCIVAL! CONFUSION RAY ON THE LAMPENT!"
Shaking as much water from his coat as he could and allowing the rest to sizzle as his body temperature rose, the Ninetails would lock his gaze upon his ghostly adversary. Without a word he would release a single short bark, loosing a pulsing black sphere into the air which spiralled and zigzagged haphazardly towards the fellow Fire-Type.

((Lol, I missed the math myself, it's been a while since we continued this battle ^^))
Jasmine glanced at the battlefield, once again, both her opponents were aiming for Burnout...
But the Poliwhirl, it's bloated bubbles were too slow, it made much too much a tempting target, even as that zigzagging confuse ray flew for them!
"Victoria!" Jasmine called to the girl, "Please have Salacia cover for Burnout, I'll deal with the Poliwhirl!"
She turned back to the battle herself, where Burnout had taken the signal to already gather his power, the Energy Ball readying...
Jasmine solidified herself, in prior battles she had held off using a super effective attack as a finisher, but it was desperate already, and if she wanted to rescue Rhinox and Licorice, she needed to harden her resolve.
If they hurt her opponent, she was a medic, she could patch it up afterward!
"Fire! Counter with Energy Ball!"
Burnout had already been drawing the energy, ignoring the other incoming attack from the Ninetales, and with the over encumbered bubbles coming, his own green sphere had now formed, glistening with his own energy, he now released it, the Energy Ball colliding with the bubbles to send them bouncing away in every direction, looking to bowl right through the attack and all the way back to Leap!
((Edit: Um... Ouch?))
((Help Obi Wan Victoria, you're my only hope!))
