[N seems to ignore Hilda's words, save for giving her sharp look in disapproval at her tone of voice. It'll only agitate the Pokemon more. He listens to the Unfezant's complaints, nodding occasionally, uttering "I know"'s and self-deprecating words. He does keep watch of Zoroark's battle from the corner of his eye, still.] I'm sorry-- I will make sure the battle ends soon. The rain will stop. [He pauses there, allowing Hilda to offer up the berry, then watching the Unfezant go. Minun gives a sigh of relief and squeaks happily up at Hilda, something along the lines of, "See? Everything's okay now!" The flicker of electricity catches his eye, and he looks up, ears twitching curiously as he sees the Plusle. He's met plenty of Plusle in LostLorn Forest before; maybe this one is a friend!
Paprika's warning reaches N next, and he sees Lombre prepare its attack. He tears his attention back to the battle.] Zoroark, move! [But Lombre's too fast; the BubbleBeam hits hard, sending Zoroark skidding through the mud with a yelp. The situation with the Unfezant under control, N retakes his stance on the field, getting as close to Zoroark as he can without actually encroaching on the battle.] Zoroark! [The fox Pokemon forces herself back onto her feet, giving a weak, stubborn snarl. So that's why N was worried about a little rain...
He's about to admit defeat and return Zoroark to her Pokeball, but she growls in protest. N hesitates, but calls out another command:] Foul Play! [Recovering her balance, Zoroark lashes out again. N knows moves like Foul Play could turn seemingly hopeless battles around in his favor, but he isn't sure it'll work this time. The Lombre is too fast, and Zoroark's taken too much damage...]
