[Mudkip obviously has no problem with the everlasting rain and bounds straight out the Pokemon Centre doors ahead of Sagi, wagging his little tail fin at the prospect of extra playtime. Sagi is a little less eager to head out so soon after barely drying off... but he made the suggestion in the first place, so he's doing it. Hood up over his stupid head feather, let's go.]
Mm, almost. They're usually smart enough to fight by themselves, but the rules say we call the shots. For example, if you're up against a plant monster and yours knows fire magic, telling them to use that is more efficient than letting them do whatever they want. Plus, you have to show them you're supporting them.
[After stepping outside, he plants his feet and turns to face Hythlodaeus from the other side of the Centre doors. Gotta do this properly (ie, dramatically) if he's demonstrating, right? Itaru taught him that. It's the circle of life.]
So I could just tell this guy to attack yours. But it's better if it's more like -
[Wings: unfurled! Feathers: windswept! Valedictory Elegy opening riff: muffled in the distance! Pointer finger: out! Hythlodaeus is forcibly escorted into a Pokemon battle!]
Mudkip, soak him!
[Exactly on cue, Mudkip opens his mouth and launches a rain-boosted water jet straight at Hades' mask. Some of that is going to spray indoors if he's still floating in the doorway. So much for avoiding a mess.]
