Pokemon Tabletop United

This battle didn't go quite how you'd expect if you were a spectator of the previous two, a chief reason being that unlike the other two this one actually gathered some spectators.

Nando disguised his use of the move Screech (while not in range of any enemy targets) by screaming the name of the pokeball store, which Mike copied with Mirror Move and unfortunately managed to miss both of the enemy pokemon. What it did do was attract some people to come and watch, the entire point of the exercise!

Pichu struck early and hard, blowing Mike down to a fraction of his HP, then fainted the very next turn to combined attacks from the angered birds.
Nincada conversely managed to take six to eight hits, despite all of them being super effective, but finally lost out due to inability to fly and lack of moves particularly effective for dealing with birds.
He valiantly tried twice to rope himself to Mike and grab hold in mid-air, but it was just not to be.

Charlie: +16 EXP (now Level 11)
Mike: +16 EXP (now level 11) +2 Injuries (oof)
Caroline:+2 Exp, +4 Pokeballs, +1 Weighted Net
Nando:+2 Exp, +4 Pokeballs, +1 Weighted Net, -1 Can of Glitter
I can feel a pattern beginning to emerge here.

After receiving his prize, Nando attempted to charm the shopkeeper further and obtain some form of sponsorship. He didn't quite manage that, but did get a deal of a different sort.

"Junior here recently lost a whole bunch of our stock in the woods outside of town, says he was mugged by some big furry thing. The pokeballs were pretty easily replaceable but we had to get him a new Trainer's License too and they aren't so cheap. If you can get us his old one back, maybe we can work something out.
I ain't saying you'll be our mascot or anything but we can always use more publicity."

"I'll see what I can do then eh?" was the obvious response.

A small crowd of eight people is now milling around inside and outside the store. Despite having lost and had to pay out again, the shopkeeper is much happier. His grandson shrugs and starts to leave to the pokemon centre.
