The Lunarvae, now perfectly in Hane's sight, seemed to become more panicked as Hane collided into it with a successful Tackle. Holding its grip on the branch, it formed a lasso of String Shot, briefly whirling it for momentum, before aiming it at Hane.

Hane remained mute, so as not to accidentally tell the Lunarvae his plan. He leapt into the air and Nose Dived into a pile of leaves on the ground, breaking the thread if not pulling the Lunarvae along with it.

The Lunarvae detached the lasso of String Shot, but not soon enough. Pulled down onto the pile of leaves, it huddled beneath in the attempt to hide itself, not wanting to expose its position by trying to climb back up the tree.

Hane saw his chance. With keen eyesight, he had been watching the Lunarvae and rushed to Tackle it again. Cyrus took out an empty Poke Ball, and waited for the right moment.

The Lunarvae jerked its head up to find the Tiquail rushing towards it, and, in an apparently desperate maneuver, emanated the purple projection of Night Shade from its head, launching it awkwardly into the air and scattering the leaves of the pile with the force of the technique. The Lunarvae landed onto a cluster of thin branches, with the sound of shaken leaves announcing its contact. The Lunarvae shot white thread at all of the branches above it in a seemingly haphazard motion.

(You can choose to have it break out, if you'd like.)

Hane charged straight through where the Lunarvae had been, and looked around for it. Cyrus decided to throw the Poke Ball now, when the Lunarvae wasn't likely to be expecting it. So she took aim, and threw it straight at the Lunarvae.

(This Lunarvae, being seemingly strategic as it is, will need a specific technique to capture--it will try counterattacking every move if it can. You should try exposing it on the ground, with no cover, and blocking its way or otherwise impeding escape. Oh, and the lattice around the Poké Ball is like the "weaving" on the inside of a racquetball paddle.)

Even with Cyrus's uncommonly good or fortunate aim, the Lunarvae was able to barely knock the Poké Ball aside, propelling it away with Night Shade onto a nearby branch. Unexpectedly, the Lunarvae shot a white thread at it, reeling it in. The protective formation it was making around the thin branches now seemed clear: some sort of sticky cage of String Shot's thread. The Lunarvae, seeming more calm now, wove a lattice around the Poké Ball, happening to minimize the ball into its more portable form while doing so.

(Racquetball? Is that like tennis or squash?)

Cyrus sighed. 'I'm going to run out of Poke Balls if this keeps up for too long... I have quite a few though. If I can lure it away, then I can retrieve the ball...but then, getting the thread off would be hard.' she said to herself. Hane had found the Lunarvae again, and was using what he had learnt from testing Nose Dive, to perform a Tackle from above. He hoped the Lunarvae wouldn't notice.

(Squash? It was mentioned on the Wikipedia article in relation to racquetball, but I do not know what it is...well, a racquetball paddle is mostly the same as a tennis paddle, I just happened to be thinking of racquetball specifically. Also, the Poké Ball-on-a-string is like a ball-and-chain weapon; that is, more like a "yo-yo weapon" than a medieval morningstar/mace.)

The Lunarvae barely registered Hane, oddly enough. Then again, Hane could only have incidentally dived directly on the sticky cage of String Shot , and no doubt would be stuck in the net-like fortification, or at least impeded. The minimized Poké Ball was now held within a lattice that extended from the thread the Lunarvae formed from its mouth, and the Lunarvae dragged it like an object at the end of a whip as it faced Hane.

(A yo-yo for a weapon? XD Might make it level 7 instead, as it seems to be very strong and/or cunning. 7's the limit without asking a staff member though ^^)

The Lunarvae was correct; Hane was indeed stuck on the sticky 'net'. He squawked in terror and used Sand-Attack repeatedly to try and impede the Lunarvae as he attempted to peck away at the sticky substance.

'What is that string made of?' Cyrus wondered, ready to recall Hane if necessary.

(Since I could not suppose the Sand-Attack conjures sand out of midair in this context...oh, and I do not think the Lunarvae is especially cunning or strong as much as it happens to be good at thinking on its feet and making strategies on the move. It is pressured from the battle, and thus this could be just desperation without being a stunned Stantler in headlights.)

So far off the ground, little particles and plant debris like shredded pine cone scales, teeny leaf bits, fallen petals and seed hulls---what might, in time, be an appropriate part of the soil--- comprised Hane's attempt at a Sand-Attack, and the Lunarvae was indeed impeded by the unexpected barrage, closing its eyes against the attack.

Steph wondered if she should help Cyrus---she decided to wait if Cyrus asked her.

(Help in what way? And I see what you mean ^^)

Hane would have used the oppourtunity to attack, except he was still stuck. So he sent a barrage of feathers the Lunarvae's way and worked harder on freeing himself from the net.

With the Sand-Attack dissipating, the Lunarvae coiled its String Shot "whip", and, with the Poké Ball at the end, battered the barrage of feathers, negating it midair---however, the Lunarvae overshot the maneuver, and the Poké Ball was now trapped inside the net, like a yo-yo tangled in a soccer goal. The Lunarvae attempted to delicately pull the end of the "whip" back in, even while the part of the net holding Hane weakened from the repeated pecking.

Hane attempted to bat the Poke Ball away, and in the process tore a larger hole in the net. He struggled madly to free himself, finally managing it - although as soon as he had, he flew a bit fast and crashed into the Poke Ball.

The Lunarvae, with another pull at the end of its "whip", managed to bring the Poké Ball in--but also Hane, leaving the Tiquail to topple onto the Lunarvae. The force of the collision caused the Lunarvae to relinquish hold of its "whip", and left it stunned.

Hane was stunned as well, but managed eventually to get up...leaving Cyrus with a clear shot at the Lunarvae. 'I hope it's captured this time...' she muttered as she threw the ball.

The Lunarvae, despite its apparent strategic tendencies, was exhausted and weakened---making a successful capture.

I suppose no help was needed, Steph concluded. She wondered if any of the others thought it would be an appropriate time for a meal soon, or if they thought to navigate past the Decorus Woods first.

Cyrus sighed, and collected the Poke Ball. 'That was a hard battle... Well done, Hane.' She turned to Steph, and asked, 'Do you think Hane would have gotten experience from that? I know that normally captures give no experience, but breaking out of that 'net' and all the new tactics...'

"I doubt it. Even if it is a difficult battle, unless one side faints, no experience points are gained. Although...surely, Hane could have acquired experience of a different variety. Not...growth experience, but....education of cunning tactics?''

Steph smiled, now knowing what to say on her educated guesswork of its information. "Lunarvae, the Strategy Pokémon. Normally quiet leaf-eaters, Lunarvae prove to be clever opponents if provoked to battle."

'Strategy?' Cyrus asked, sending out the Lunarvae, now officially called Rin, and looking her up on her Pokedex. 'Seems appropriate for a part-Dark type.'

Rin looked at Hane menacingly, then used String Shot. 'Wait up, you're not meant to be battling... The battle's over.' Cyrus said.
