"Well, accidents are always a risk. But if everyone involved is aware and still wishes to participate..."
He shrugs. He's known a person or two like that before, so that kind of attitude certainly isn't limited to Pokemon.
"If any of yours are willing to battle--or even wish to--and you allow it, however, then I'd recommend making sure you have a firm grasp on the matter, yourself. Pokemon are quite strong, and many can be clever, especially given training and experience, but they still often lack the insight and planning a trainer can provide. A careless or unengaged trainer runs far greater risk of their Pokemon becoming injured than one who's actively and appropriately participating."
In other words, if she's going to have her team battle at all, it's better to go all in than be wishy-washy about it.
