Aren't you familiar with the concept that it's best to win with the minimal amount of fighting? Simply attacking anything in sight is hardly an effective use of resources.

*really, can you blame a guy for wanting minimal hassle?*

But wasteful though it may be, it would seem there's no other option. Valiant!

*the absol that's everpresent at his side doesn't stir, but a gallade that had been patrolling and watching for attacks from behind hurries over at his call to stand at ready*

This might be good practice, if nothing else.
