((Alright, so Chikao can get hurt~
Also, I'm pretending Cinni is in the Aura Cave so Jade can go save her.))
Metis' muscles whined whenever she tried to move, exploding with pain at even the simple action of labored breathing. The vulpix watched helplessly as the Seviper whaled on the rest of the party, time seeming to go in slow motion when she was immobilized. Suddenly Tensu leapt out from underground and slapped the foe across the face with his cat-like claws, a cheeky taunt going along with a flash of his teeth, "Surprise!"
You sly fox, She thought, her amethyst eyes lighting up as Nyla sent a flamethrower the Seviper's way, making yet another burn mark across the reptillian skin. Soon after, a familiar looking blizzard of leaves were sent twirling toward him, but they simply bounced off of him or made shallow slits where they hit. Metis' eyes widened as the seviper sank his glowing purple fangs into Tetra's shoulder, injecting the snivy with the venom and tossing her away.
"Tetra!" She cried before the grass snake announced something loudly and threw a sharp shard of blue at the foe's face.
The blue crytal inserted itself deep into the poison snake's eye, blood sliding down from the socket as soon as it slid in. The Seviper gave a cry of pure agony, reeling back and flailing its blade-tail wildly. Metis felt her limbs snap back to a movable state, and as soon as the tail came flying toward her, she sprang away, letting the tail crash against the ground she was once glued to. Huffing, she skidded against the ground and powered up a Fire Spin, burning fiercely in her maw and waiting for the moment to strike. Her eyes flitted around until they were set upon Tetra. Sighing, she let the flames go out and she sprinted toward the injured snivy, barking to Nyla along the way, "Look out for the kid!" She was reffering to the Shinx they had come all this way to rescue.
Metis nudged Tetra hurriedly, "You still okay?" She asked off-handedly, rummaging through bag slung over her shoulder. Bringing out a small, soft pink fruit, a Pecha berry, the vulpix held it at Tetra's mouth, "Hurry, eat it. We don't have time to waste!"
Jade's eyes narrowed as she felt the urge to take a step forward and examine the riolu's move more intently. His appearance was strange enough, and it seemed to affect the look of his moves too. Not to mention a normal riolu isn't supposed to know Aura Sphere... As she watched the dust clear, the absol heard a noise off to her left. It seemed to be underground somewhere, a frightened squeal for help. Curious, the white-furred beast took a step in that direction before glancing back at the two. If it's someone in danger, I wouldn't want to just ignore it... Besides, it could take them a while to find out where the next floor is. I won't lose them. Now more confident, the guildmaster nodded to herself and glided over the ground silently, only pausing to detect the sounds of the pokemon apparently in danger.
Her nose suddenly twitched, she smelt blood. That couldn't be good... Jade stood at the edge of a hole in the ground and rose an eyebrow, that was most odd... The absol peered in, tilting her head to the side. At the bottom of the hole appeared to be a lush green bush with pink flowers on it, but she knew it was a living pokemon when she saw the blood and the shiny eyes. "Don't worry," She said, trying to keep her voice calm yet comforting, "I'll get you out of there." The absol took a few steps back before launching herself into the hole, landing over the shaymin but not on top of it. Weird... A legendary? Here? "Are you hurt?"
