"A Ledyba? Well, there go my plans for having a Bumbler!" James laughed, eliciting a frown and a sniffle from the small ladybug. "Oh! No! I wasn't expecting you, sure, but that doesn't mean I don't still like you!" He grabbed the little bug. "Hey, I'm your trainer, and I'm your friend. We're gonna have fun together, just you, me, and five others. Heck, we'll have a grand old time! But, first things first... A nickname! Let me just get a good look at you..." He set Ledyba down. "Mhmmm... Uh-huh... Indeed... I have it! Virginia! You'll be Virginia!"

The Ledyba buzzed happily at this. "Ledyyy! Dyyyba!"

"Now, if I remember correctly... You're the first gym leader, Aaron." Aaron nodded. "Well, I suppose I have to battle you... Ready, Virginia?"

"Dyyyba!" the little bug hummed.

"You know, if this turns out well, I may reconsider my ideas of being a coordinator full-time!"

(OOC: ... Didn't we already do that? Like, two posts ago? Also, if I'm going to be in battle against Flying-types can Ledyba have an egg move? I mean, just Tackle isn't gonna cut it...)

(OOC: Alrighty. Hmmm... Anyone care to play a traveling partner for my character? Or a rival?)

(OOC: Part-time. We can do something like after I exit the gym, I run into you and say something less than tactful and you peg me as an enemy. So it'd be like my usual daily occurance like that... Yeah. So, I'll PM you when the gym battle's over, is that OK? Also, anyone gonna get this gym battle going?)

(OOC: Good choice of theme, my original choice was this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKgB1yETdVg then this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fndV_asGo4Q )

James grinned. "Oh, really now, Aaron. Not going to put your Nevermore in first? How decent of you!" He turned to address Virginia. "Alright, my dear, are we ready?"

"Dyyy! Baba! Ledyba!"

"Alright, Virginia, lead off with Tackle!"

Virginia hummed toward the identical bug and slammed into it. The other flipped back, and it was uncertain at best that it took any real damage. James crossed his fingers and hoped that the rest of the battle went well...

But Virginia wasn't going to take that. When the chips are down, she knew, use strategy! A ear-splitting scream engulfed Aaron's Ledyba. It dropped to the floor on its back, dazed and, James noticed with interest, confused! Virginia had learned Supersonic.

"Virginia, hurry, while it's confused, Tackle it! And keep doing so!"

(OOC: Spelling Nazi powers, activate! It's groan. Not grown.)

"Virginia, no mercy! Keep Tackling it!" James called.

Virginia zoomed up and slammed into the confused doppelganger and repeated, the other Five Star too dazed to do much of anything except flitter about feebly.
