[While Anasui would prefer to be stalking down the stragglers in tunnels, he knows it's more efficient for him to be on patrol. He has a knack for hunting down intruders, hence why he's patrolling near the canopy, making use of his natural stealth.
It is a very quiet night but any hope of it staying that way is dashed when he hears the crackle of his pearl. Still, Anasui snaps to business.]
Understood. Send me what you see through the pearl and I'll find you.
[And Anasui will sprint off towards Laios. He'll take full advantage of the image sharing with the Grumperl to join the Boltund within two minutes, unless something else happens.]
Right. Hold on. [ There’s a bit more rustling before his view becomes visible. Laios is just close enough to watch them without being seen as he hides himself low in the bush. Firepaw’s advice for hunting echoes in his head, a reminder for him to keep as still as possible.
He keeps his voice hushed. ] I see two Gumshoos and a Zangoose so far, but they might not be alone. They’re acting bold for such low numbers.
[When Anasui ducks his head and sits down, he can make himself quite small, so he finds a bush to sit behind. He's not in the same bush as Laios so to not give the other man away but he's close enough so they can coordinate attacks.
Still speaking through the pearl, Anasui answers equally as softly.]
They may have reinforcements nearby but those Pokemon aren't known for hunting or fighting in a pack. It's hard to say... But we should assume they're not being arrogant. We take them quickly and quietly if possible.
[Anasui runs through the type matchups in his head and frowns.] Do you have any fighting-type moves? I don't...
[ Laios keeps still, with only his nose twitching in thought. ] It is odd, isn’t it? It’s possible the rain is effecting their behavior, but let’s stay cautious. [ Luckily, it’s only overcast for now, but who knows what longterm exposure could do to a wild Pokémon.
Just like Anasui, however, he frowns too after mentally running through his moves. ] No, I don’t, but my Electric move should hit more than just one of them. If any get paralyzed, that could give us an early edge. [ He won’t make any movements yet, not until hearing Anasui’s thoughts. ]
[Great, another factor making the enemy unpredictable. If Anasui wasn't so concerned with keeping quiet, he'd click his beak in frustration. So... if they didn't know why the enemy were acting strange then their plan needed to be flexible, hard-hitting and quick.]
I can only really target one at a time but my Lumina Crash will lower its special defense. So... here's my thoughts... I run in, hit them with it and then 'Ally Swap' with you in the bushes. That way, you'll be in a better position to let off your moves without hitting me, while dealing more damage to the target I tagged. Then, if they try attack you, I'll swap back, take the hit, and give you a chance to paralyze them again. They don't look the brightest... I imagine if we move quickly and disorientate them that way, we'll get the upper hand despite their numbers.
[He glances back at Laios. Thoughts? He'll follow Laios' lead but he's also ready to just execute his plan if Laios doesn't have anything better in mind.]
