Quatic charged with the Slash Sand Vortex to counter it, the sand absorbed the electricity making this a even match hopefully. While this all carried out Acerios began to tend to Gust's wounds, "This will be a while then..." he said as he sprayed a potion.

"Are going to be that way?" Elesa asked. Zebstrika used Wild Charge again. Elesa debated with herself to use a potion or not.

Acerios threw down his pack, "Well I only due have two, but anyways that's the end of the healing." he said as he pulled out a old book and read to his egg. Quatic quickly charged in the vortex again the sand absorbing the electricity still.

"I'll cut you a deal. I'll only use Zebstrika for the rest of the battle." Elesa promised. Zebstrika shot some Shock Waves at Quatic.

Acerios smiled as he looked up from his book, "Thanks, I am grateful. Quatic can only take so much." he said. Quatic got up after a shock made it through a knocked some sand off, but he dodged the rest. Barely standing right now at 1/10 of his strength the took a last ditch move that he didn't quiet know how to use. Ignoring all dangers Quatic sped at Zebstrika with Aqua Jet, soaking the field and making it like quicksand.

"You are a great strategist." Elesa complemented. Zebstrika found the shallowest part of the quicksand and stood there. He sent out Shock Waves trying to defeat his opponent.

Acerios replied, "You're great with quick thinking, it's just as good as my tactics." he smiled. Quatic's sand absorbed most of the waves but the soaked part lead some to Quatic, still standing it took a dangerous dive. He Aqua Jetted up into the air and then smashed straight down.

"Hmm... maybe that man is right... I think I've done just about enough research..." Holding her egg and her science device thing (I have lack of a better name for it), she looked at the current product of her egg research. "...Seeing how this egg reacts strangely to most technology, I should probably keep away from the Ferris Wheel for now. I don't want the thing to freeze in place until it hatches..." Margo looked around for a good place to help it hatch, when she saw Elesa's gym. "Hm, there's probably a heated battle in there. I wonder if the Pokemon would like it!" Margo put her device in her pocket, then rushed into the gym with her egg, knowing to watch from the spectators area.

"Are you sure Quatic will be able to to surface? This quicksand you made is quite strong." Elesa said concerned. She noticed Margo walk in. "Oh, Hi. Be careful of the quicksand. You're welcome to watch the battle." She said as she pointed to a bench.

Acerios nodded, "I can trust him, we've trained for a week at least." he said as he saw bubbling in the quicksand. Soon a jet of water burst out, Quatic inside, sand on him, aiming at Zebstrika.

Defensively Zebstrika reacted. He shot several Shock Waves at Quatic. It shot some more at the Quicksand to harden it.

Yugi saw Elesa's gym and watched through the window. "We need to train..." He said, encountering a pikachu.

Acerios kept going, as the Quicksand hardened then softened due to water and Shock Wave. Acerios yelled at Burgh, "Hey you painting this?!" he shouted.

When the Quicksand was changing forms Zebstrika escaped. It walked on the edge of the gym, not touching the quicksand. He shot more Shock Waves at Quatic. "Yeah, I'm getting this." Burgh called out switching canvases.
