Nai it's fine, I was setting up my plan in parts to draw out the battle, but it's not necessary. You might wanna try to post before I do though, since I'm typing a response right now xD

I feel like this is the part where I get humiliated.
Alright, so a quick summary of that post for those who didn't want to read all the text;
I'm open to more discussion about how you deal with this though.
- Claire used her Cyndaquil to ignite the smoke and create a smoke explosion.
- Under the smokescreen, Mareep blew open one of the vents and Cottonee slipped into the Lab.
- Mareep reapplied the Cotton spores and then used tackle to jiggle the windows shut.
- Riolu was intercepted by Mienfoo, who's attack had been boosted by Meditate which she'd been using since my last post. How you make of that clash is up to you, @Red Gallade
- Cottonee used Stun Spore to fill the vents with spores, followed by Fairy Wind to diffuse the spores rapidly throughout the Lab.
I'm open to more discussion about how you deal with this though.
I am not even surprised that this happened, but that doesn't mean I'll go down without a fight
I don't know about the argument about Arcanine's nose being clogged up. It's debateable because it's a fire type after all
Fight you must! Fight you may! By the way, following simple logic most of the humans would get taken out before the pokemon since Humans are taller and would be closer to the Vents.
The first to get hit would probably Honchkrow, followed by Arcanine (1.9m tall), then the humans, followed by the shorter pokemon.
I might have a way to counter this, but I'm not too sure about it. Can someone move after being hit by Stun Spore and how long will the spores stay in the air?
Soot is still soot, being a fire type doesn't mean it cant smell soot :v I digress though, I totally want Arcanine to find the spores by smell.
Because If it detects it, then it breathed it in as well, it follows that its now out of the fight. So I mean, either way its a win for me.
Since Honchkrow got his first, you also no longer have a Flying type readily available to disperse the spores. By the time Arcanine smells the Spores Honchkrow would've breathed in lung-fulls.
They can move yes, I'm going based on vague memory of the Johto anime where Pikachu got hit with a Stun Spore and came down with a high fever.
It doesn't immediately petrify you or anything, but anyone who breathes it in is gonna be pretty unsteady on their feet, and should probably seek medical attention.
But I mean if you wanna fight Claire for longer instead of getting help for all those lab aides in other rooms who'll probably be down with high fever...then by all means
Yep... humiliated.
I don't know the biology of a Fire type so i guess we'll go with your interpretation? xD
This is Kyuu, he is capable of completely wiping the floor with anyone. No need to feel bad, you atleast tried your best
I mean, if you're at wits end I do have a counter to my own strategy. I can sell it to you...for a price~
I don't know about that. I might have some way of countering it myself. It won't affect everyone but those that are in close proximity would be affected
Idc, I cannot stand losing. Even if Lena wins, idk what she'll do afterward.
I mean...it's a dog? I figure it's biology isn't radically different or anything.
I mean, Slugma is a pile of Lava and it can get affected by stun spore (through some mystical means), so..?
Well, I'm not sure how this biology argument is gonna work out, but if you've got a convincing argument I'll at least hear you out.
I wasn't given the title [Queen of Tactics] for nothing
I don't wanna get on my high-horse though since this could all come crumbling down in a single post lmao.
I wasn't talking about the spores. I meant the soot. It's possible that it might not get affected by it since it's fire type. But as i said, i don't know their biology so you might be right

I'm open to that argument, but that brings up another issue for you guys.
Say Arcanine isn't affected by the soot, it still doesn't have a way of readily dispersing the spores. That means most of the humans, who'll only be inches shorter than Arcanine at best -inches that will be covered by Fairy wind, and by extension the spores in a matter of seconds-, will still get hit by the spores.
I'm too vexed to even think of a good post, let alone a successful counterattack.
I'll try to write a post myself now but don't expect it to be good xD
*pats*
Tell you what, I'm actually certain that you and Bunny can think of a way out of this. The combination of your Pokemon is very versatile and it allows for many different courses of actions.
teamwork makes the dream work~
I don't know how accurate my post is gonna be so feel free to critizise me on it 
And sorry that it's so bad. Had no idea how to make the post
And sorry that it's so bad. Had no idea how to make the post
Well that was certainly one way to deal with it. I was going based off the character sheet on the first so I completely forgot about Umbreon.I don't know how accurate my post is gonna be so feel free to critizise me on it
And sorry that it's so bad. Had no idea how to make the post
My only critcism, would be that while Arcanine might not be affected by the soot, Isakson most definitely would be.
I digress though, you balanced it out nicely with the 'heal bell can't affect tth humans' part, and I can live with that compromise.
@DarkHydraT do you have any limit to how many moves one Pokémon can know?
4 moves, not more
Okay thanks
May I post first? I've got an ideaOkay thanks
Your roleplay. Go ahead
Eh, since when '-'
Tsk, would've been nice to know that earlier. Limited number of moves puts a real damper on what I can do.
That would mean I'd already filled all four slots for Mareep, and I wasted one on Tackle :T
I know, bit late. Sorry about that
It causes problems for me too. I have four moves for my Umbreon planned already but aside from Psychic and one more move, his moveset isn't all that great for battling. And i have to rethink Absol's moveset a little. But i will have to keep Razor Wind for him
Well, before this spirals out of my control...I think I'm justing going to take those Starters. My apologies to @Red Gallade since you didn't have any time to react.
If you want to keep the starters you're gonna have to get them back from Claire first.

AHAHAH~!! It seems Lady luck is on my side~ The Cavalry has arrived! @Metaphorical Faith, you've got the most perfect timing ever!
I had an idea with disguising the Pokéballs, but I don't mind the outcome. That timing is perfect though
Lmao, that's exactly what I couldn't allow. I don't have enough alternate plans for second, third, or fourth attempts at stealing the starters. Had to nab them on the first go, else I would've been in a bit of a pickle.
Truthfully though, you should've done all this before Claire arrived, not during the middle of the battle.
Of course, I try to have all my characters, if they're an understudy, be at their upper-up's beck and call. She always tries to be there, in style, even if she's not on time. Fashionably late, I suppose!
True, but Rowan wasn't just gonna take some young punk's words at face value
I assume you say that the box is floating due to Lunar's Psychic. But he doesn't use that anymore. I stated in my post that he put the box down. He can't really use two moves at the same time
