"Pidge!"
"Pidge!"
"PIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDGE!!"
Cawing in-sync, the Pidgey flock descends from above with their targets locked. Listening to the Miser's cue, they each use Wing Attack, essentially turning themselves into homing bird missiles. "Dedenne! Midoro! HEADS UP! Rabid Pidgey squad at twelve 'o clock! Dedenne, I want you to Thunderbolt as many as you can!"
"Kush-kush, kush-kush~" Dedenne nods and wiggles his whiskers, too inherently optimistic to show any signs of worry on his part. The same can't be said for Midoro though, who fidgets while alternating between his partner and the enemy. "U-Uh, um!... Er...."
>'He's hesitating... I was probably right in assuming this is the first big battle he's ever really taken part in.. Talks the talk but freezes up when put in harm's way..'"Midoro!" you call to him. "You have to counterattack or you'll get whomped!"
"F-Foolish Calem-sama, I-I knew that!" he retorts, only to fidget some more. "I-I'm just thinking about what to do!"
>'I'll just have to push him in the right direction then!'"There's no use hiding it, great explorer! Don't let battle anxiety get the better of you in a fight, you can't afford to be apprehensive when danger's on the opposite side of the field! I learned that the hard way! You've gotta learn how to defend yourself,
because theatrics isn't enough for the real world!""Piiiiiiiiiiiiiiiidgeeeee!"
Midoro steps back and rubs his cheeks, still a little uneasy, but your words empower him enough to suck it up and face the enemy with the dramatic nuances of his skits. "R-Right! C-Can't stay tense, h-have to put on confidence—ALRIGHT EVILDOERS, COME AT ME! THE GREAT MIDORO-SAMA'S SQUIRMS NO LONGER!! HIIIIIIIII-YAA!"
