Well, that's what happens when you can't spare enough attention to focus on a pokémon battle. Sometimes you mess up.

The X-Scissor alone might not have been enough to KO a rather tanky Obstagoon, especially when it's a higher level than Talus...but combined with the previous two hits, it's enough. The Obstagoon slumps, vanishing back into its Pokéball in a flash of red light.

Claude would really be in trouble here...except, suddenly, he's not alone. He's relieved for himself to see Felix, and...while mildly worried for him, in the sense that he's worried about a friend being in combat and especially because he might get in trouble on his behalf, he can't feel as though this Santa can pose a real threat to Felix. Felix is too good a swordsman for some improvised candy cane weapon to hold up against him, no matter how well someone wields it.

That mystery pokémon, though...that could be a concern, especially since it evidently has no compunctions about attacking people. So Claude's not about to let it have the chance.

He pulls out another Pokéball - the other one Santa lent him. Jynx comes out, in all her questionable glory.

Claude wastes no time. She's not as hardy as Obstagoon, he knows, so he needs to make sure he can take this pokémon out of the picture no matter what, as soon as possible. "Perish Song!"

Only then does he spare a glance at Felix, giving him a manic smile. "Improvising!" he answers brightly. "Badly!"
