[So Cyndaquil has fire coming out of its back when it battles... Well, he supposes that explains a lot of why Bakugou likes it. He wonders if the fitting qualities of the Pokemon for Bakugou end there...]

Deku, let's do this! [Deku the Togepi does its best fighting stance as Grenade continues its dash. Once it's close enough, Izuku gives the first command.] Deku, use Charm!

[And Togepi's expression change immediately as it burst into a radiant smile as it sends a torrent of hearts at Grenade.]

[nitroglycerish]

[Uh, yeah. Are you saying Grenade isn't the raddest shit you've ever seen?]

Charm? What kind of pissweak move is that?

[It doesn't take very long to get the answer. In some ways, he wished he never figured out what Charm did.

What the hell.

Grenade seems as baffled as Bakugou is, rearing back before his tackle can connect. It ends up being more of a gentle bump, instead, with Grenade seeming to shyly tap his head against the other Pokemon.]

What are you playing at, Deku?

[nolongeruseless]

[Oh no, it's pretty rad!

Charm actually works better than he expected, too. Maybe now they can win this.]

I'm playing at winning this battle, anyway we can. Deku, Metronome!

[And Togepi doesn't waste any time wagging its little fingers, who begin powering up soon. Once the move's complete, he uses Swift, letting out a series of small stars heading straight at Grenade.]

[nitroglycerish]

[It's not surprising that he's pulling out all the stops, but it doesn't make it less frustrating. Deku's been here for not even a day, but he's already throwing himself into all of this so- so whole-heartedly that Bakugou's going to be left behind.

He can't let that happen.]

Grenade, leer!

[Charm seems to have taken the edge of tackle, but if he can get the stupid egg to let up...

Maybe it'll work. His eyes narrow at the use of Metronome, and sadly Grenade can't dodge it all.]

Metronome, huh? Can't you do anything without copying off someone better than you?

[nolongeruseless]

[You should know by now, Bakugou, Deku doesn't do anything half-heartedly. Especially not when you're involved.

He wants to beat you, and that doesn't change in a new world.

Leer seems to work; Deku the Togepi is visibly shaken, and looks like its defences aren't as strong. Izuku notices, but going for another charm might backfire, especially if Cyndaquil has another move up its sleeve that's not affected by it.

For now, he'll just grind his teeth and ignore Bakugou's insult. One more time...]

Deku, again, use Metronome! [And he does... Only to come up with Mud Sport. Izuku isn't sure where the mud came from, or what its purpose might be, but Togepi is surely throwing it in the air and around himself.] ... Eh?
