(Actually, Golduck is pure water type, though I don't blame you for thinking that he's part Psychic. I've been under the impression that he was part Psychic myself a couple of times!m<a class="postlink" href="http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Golduck">http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Golduck</a>m)<br/><br/><br/>Marx, having no offensive capabilities whatsoever, was completely focused on taking hits, and due to his species and role not much more could do it better.<br/><br/><br/>"Wob wob." ("Well, except for a Blissey. They take hits like nobody's business.") Marx said, his train of thought continuing out loud as two attacks headed right towards him.<br/><br/><br/>"Focus, Marx!" Isaac yelled, jumping in front of the Shadow Ball and blocking with his arms, protecting Marx from it. Had Isaac not been prepared to move, that attack would have whizzed right past him.<br/><br/><br/>"You're pretty good." Isaac said cooly to the Haunter morph. "I can tell that years of experience has tempered your combat ability."<br/><br/><br/>As soon as the X-scissor had hit its mark, Bishop was ready. "Are you going to take that from a spider, Marx? Use Counter!"<br/><br/><br/>"Wobba wob!" ("Coming right up!") Marx exclaimed, as he glowed with a different power this time, Counters effects springing forth to hurt the Galvantula morph. "Wob wob. Wobba, buffet?" ("Bugs were never the most sturdy of Pokemon, so I think there's a good chance that will knock her out! Hmm...I wonder what spider tastes like? In some countries, I hear it's a delicacy!")<br/><br/><br/>"Interesting. I'll keep that in mind." Isaac said, as the two ate their Leftovers. Strangely, Bishop hadn't given him orders yet. He looked over, and sure enough, Bishop dipped into his pocket for an item. If there was something Bishop had no shortage of, it was spare items. "Though neither of us are hurt too badly to need a potion, and we have Leftovers. So what is he reaching for?"<br/><br/><br/>Bishop pulled out an X-Speed, throwing it into the air. "Okay, this is for you Isaac!"<br/><br/><br/>"Ah, a speed boost." Isaac nodded, as the X-Speed made him quite a bit faster than his opponents. "I'm surprised, Bishop. You're thinking in the long-term, for once. Has having one of your Pokemon eaten for the first time tempered your thoughts?"
