[Sylveon isn't a Pokémon he has much personal experience with, but he knows it's one of the more popular fairy-types. It's on he's spent a lot of time looking at over the past week. He doesn't know what kind of additional moves Dhokla might have learned, but he knows the basics. And he knows its usual ability. He also knows Sylveon are usually male, and if this one does have Cute Charm then maybe Red Eye isn't his best option after all.
He glances at Ry for a moment, then at Allura with a slightly guilty expression as he replaces the ball and takes out another one. It feels a bit like cheating when he'd so clearly been planning to use a different Pokémon, but he's at a major disadvantage and he needs to do whatever he can to reduce that.]
[The Alolan Marowak who appears with a twirl of his flaming bone before striking his own pose is definitely not a steel-type, so it feels like a weird choice considering their talk at prom, but he's probably his safest bet. He's still a few levels shy of learning one of his more powerful attacks, but he's fire-type and that should help him resist at least a little. And his newly acquired Loaded Dice should come in handy if Min can keep him on the field long enough.
The kinds of battles he normally takes part in are easier regardless of who goes first, but this one feels like a scenario where he can't afford to wait around.]
Use Will-O-Wisp.
[Rodeo seems momentarily surprised by the quick order, but moves to obey nonetheless.]
