A rustling in the bushes got Kyle to direct his torch to where the sound came from. The light shone on the creature's light blue skin, its brows furrowed and its elongated nose flailing around. It seemed it was hopeless to ignore it since it's attention was directed at them, though looking at his Electrike, it did not look like an easy task to accomplish.

"Oh wow. Looks like the world keeps reminding you of how useful you are."

A Phanpy had appeared before them, it's expression clearly showing off its aggression towards them. Perhaps they have overstepped their boundaries and had trespassed upon its territory or something. It seemed fairly young and inexperienced though, which was nice considering he had not been training his Pokemon at all. Considering his Electrike's movepool, however, that still would prove to be a challenge regardless.

"Looks like baby Rhyhorn's up."

From his belt, he released the Rock-type to square up against the Phanpy. It gave a roar as it appeared, though it most definitely sounded like a whimper instead. Defensively, Rock-types still lose to Ground, but at least he had something to scratch it unlike his Electrike's Electric-type moves.

"Bulldoze."

The Phanpy led the battle with a charge. It's body, while rigid itself, did not make enough dent on his Rhyhorn's natural rocky armor. As it received the blow, Rhyhorn raised his two front legs and hammered the ground, shaking the earth and restructuring the soil in the small area in front of him. The Phanpy, in defense, curled in an effort to save itself from further punishment. It was, however, remained in that position, silently hoping that its assailants would eventually go away. It seemed to have realized its mistake of challenging them, though Kyle wasn't as kind as to let it pass.

"Beat it up. Yeah, it's his fault for acting all mighty before us anyways."

The Phanpy tried to endure as much punishment in its curled state why his Rhyhorn kept on hitting it with heavy attacks. Since the wild Pokemon seemed to be too afraid to release itself from its position, the only outcome this situation could lead to was with his Rhyhorn beating it senseless moments later.

He readied a Pokeball at hand, waiting for the right moment to throw it for a capture. He knew a certain idiot that would want this, considering she always wanted to best him. Perhaps a Ground-type to counter his Electrike could be used as a bargaining tool against her some day.
