<span style="font-size: 18px"><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">The Garbador, however, was redirected to fight against Toorop's Machop and a Liepard took it's place.</span></span><br/><br/><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"><span style="font-size: 18px">Davey saw the posture and heard the <b>Growl</b> move of the villain team's Liepard.  It would have the effect of decreasing Pearl's ability to do damage to the Dark Type, but Davey knew that Pearl had a move that would counter the enemy's move.  "Pearl," he called out, "use '<b>Tail Whip</b>'!"  This would cause the enemy to be careless and thus lower it's defense.<br/>
<br/>
Pearl turned about, waving her butt in the direction of the Liepard and shouting, "Nidoran!  Nidoran!  Nidoran (Eat my gas!  Your father was a slimy Ditto!  He payed your mother with catnip!)!"<br/>
<br/>
The enemy Raticate launched itself at Xena, biting her again.  Davey again called for her to use <b>Fury Attack</b>, but he saw her flinch.  Hopefully, Xena wouldn't be flinching after each attack and would be able to outlast her opponent.  As the Beedrill recovered from the attack, the Raticate moved back to stand in front of it's trainer and it was looking even sicker as the poison flowed in it's veins.</span></span><br/><br/><span style="font-size: 18px"><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">So, Davey observed, his opponents were two girls named 'Melody' and 'Song'.  Maybe a little trash talk was in order.  He said to them, "Hey there, Song, Melody.  Are you sisters?  How about after your defeat we three make some 'be-you-ti-ful music' together?"  It was his own version of 'tail whip', trying to put the Blight Obsidian girls off their game.  But a voice in the back to Davey's mind said, '<i>Don't get too cocky, plus, they might be lesbians.'  </i>But he'd noticed Melody bat her eyelashes at him, like a "Charm Move".  Good thing he wasn't a pokémon!</span></span>
