Stumbling across an odd little Delibird from the ranch, the tiny bird Pokemon tried to catch Marcie's attention, thanking her for helping fix the ranch by handing over a gold nugget, Marceline smiling sweetly and mouthing a thank you before pocketing it. Meanwhile her Servine had dropped into the holes the tunnel Pokemon had created, slithering around in the ground beneath them, looking for whatever was causing such a mess, hissing as it found a Poliwhirl, a potential culprit. With a sharp flick of his own tail, a whirlwind of leaves cut at the grass type and sent it flying up and out one of the holes, the water Pokemon scared and dazed, having not had anything to do with the mess. It blindly fired a stream of water towards the hole it was flung from, only for the servine to rush out, avoiding the stream and striking behind the poliwhirl with a hard tail slap, knocking it back down to the ground for his mistress Marceline to capture.

With more attackers to her berries Marcie's Servine didn't seem too eager to let up on the attackers. So a Pikachu and a Stantler were next to emerge from the tunnels? Fine, he'd deal with them just as he had the Pokemon that came before them. Darting towards the incoming Pikachu it lept into the air and spun quickly to slam the Pikachu back down towards the ground with a whip crack like slap of it's tail, narrowly swerving in the air to avoid the retaliatory thunderbolt that followed.

His thin serpent eyes then moved to the Stantler, a larger Pokemon no doubt but he saw it as far less of a threat. Using his own serpentine body he slithered and weaved through it's headbutts and kicks till it began to wear itself down, finally unleashing a cutting tornado of leaves to send it flying back in turn, standing confidently as it crossed it's tiny little arms.

With her servine having it's fill Marceline had no reason to hold back as a Geodude seemed to be the next thing to threaten her ranch's berry trees, smirking wide as she unleashed her roserade,t he grass pokemon taking a proud stance as it made itself known to the world, aiming a bouquet arm towards the rock type pokemon and rushing towards it with merciless intent, poison thorns shooting out from it's bouquets and striking hard against the rock pokemon, its small form allowing it some room to dodge, but the Roserade was equally small and agile, and a following strike was enough to force the Geodude back, knocking it against one of the trees, for a grass whistle to easily put it to sleep.

Ignoring the Solrock as they floated up into the sky, the Roserade rushed for the final target, a Vigoroth that had seemed to fall right into the tree somehow. Maybe Luke was onto something about those things coming from Ultra wormholes...perhaps she should look into it more once her foundation was fully opened again. For now though she focused on the fight before them, a sunny dance allowing the Roserade to soak up the rays as it took aim at the Vigoroth in the tree, firing a powerful solar beam towards it with no sense of remorse, and a powerful smirk across it's lips as it took the energetic sloth pokemon out of the tree, and Marcie moved to capture it for Luke's research.
