Yellow - Lightning

Part of the problem was that she wasn’t moving. In a moment where Dody wasn’t preoccupied with fending off a clone, Yellow saw her opening. “Dody!” Yellow called, “Whirlw-”

A hard kick came from Yellow’s exposed side and slammed into her solar plexus like a sledgehammer. The wind driven from her chest, Yellow buckled over in her rider’s seat, coughing and spitting through the pain. With Gravvy, Omny, Ratty, and Pika occupied fending off clones, the fifth clone slammed another bolt of lightning through Yellow’s body like a lance, carrying the deadly charge through her body and into her mount. Spasming pain set her nerves on fire, and as the screamed the only thing keeping her on Dody’s back was the way her legs clutched at either side of the bird Pokemon’s body. Larxene prepared another bolt, but even through the pain Yellow was thinking. Her hand reached down and channeled as much power as she could muster in the moment into Dody, healing him of as much of the damaging shock as she could in the split-second she had. With the wind knocked out of her, Yellow transmitted her thoughts to the Pokemon, allowing Dody to continue on without her voice.

*Dody! Use Whirlwind on yourself!*

The Dodrio’s three heads begun to spin rapidly, crafting a seething tornado like a shield around itself. The whipping winds threw off her attackers, if only for a moment, but it was enough. With Larxene off-guard, Dody ended the attack and tore off right through the whipping winds. Without looking back, Yellow tapped the buttons on four of the Pokeballs on her belt, recalling her other Pokemon as she put distance between herself and Larxene’s many clones. Red beams of light snatched up the various Pokemon and brought them back to safety, and only then could Yellow assess Kitty’s injuries.
