Standing alone, Sakura brushes off the dust Onix kicked up when it used bind. The area where her battle took place was flooded after Calypso used surf. She would prefer not to step in the mud, so she moved further along the volcano, her footsteps making a muffled noise on the rocky surface. Eventually, she stumbled upon what used to be a Durant hill, though it was obviously vacant. There were many entrances scattered about, though still no Durant. They weren't known to migrate so Sakura had no clue where they were. 

The Heatmor had every intention of minding his own business, but as a pesky Sakura came along, there was just no possible way to continue to do that. Her eyes looked over the anteater, it's fire tongue flicking around, looking for tasty morsels. When Sakura laid her eyes on him, she knew she had to have him. She gripped Calypso's Pokeball, "Let's go, Calypso." The fish looked at her opponent and then back to her trainer. Sakura gave her a thumbs up and Calypso turned back to Heatmor. The Feebas summoned fouth massive amounts of water, slamming it into her unsuspecting victim. The Heatmor was pushed over, but he quickly picked himself up. He charged at Calypso but halted before he hit her. He sniffed about her, trying to identify the fish. Calypso panicked a little and slammed another mass of water into him. "Excellent!" Sakura cheered on her pokemon, bouncing with approval. 

The Heatmor retaliated with a move of its own, trying to incinerate Calypso to a crisp. The move hit, but thankfully Calypso is a water type. "You know what to do. Keep going!" Calypso rolled her eyes but repeated the move. Except, when the Heatmor retaliated this time, Sakura had an empty Pokeball. She threw the capsule, attempting a capture. She closed her eyes, crossed her fingers and hoped for the best.

It was obvious to her once the heatmor escaped the Pokeball, Calypso wasn't going to survive another hit. So, being the sly dog that she was, Sakura ran out to her pokemon, crouching behind her, she looks up at the heatmor preparing to strike Calypso. Tears welled in her eyes as she spoke, "Wait! Please, wait! Calypso is hurt! I don't know if you can understand me, but please! I'm begging you. I'm so sorry!" Of course, she wasn't really worried, the tears in her eyes were just an act. The heatmor turned away which gave her the perfect opportunity to swap Pokemon. Belladonna used healing wish and dropped like a fly, but she completely healed Calypso in exchange. 

With heatmor's back turned, Calypso used Surf. Water was summoned by the gallon from the air, Calypso forced the water to slam into her enemy. The pokemon was swept off of his feet, but when he got back up, he was furious. He shot three jets of fire at Calypso, searing her, but not enough to burn. Sakura couldn't stand it. She wanted the match over. She yelled for Calypso to attack again, Calypso and heatmor both used their same attacks.

"Calypso, use Surf!" 

Another mountain of water swamped over the heatmor, who was in a daze after being whipped around by water. Sakura threw another Pokeball. This time she would get it right. Hopefully.
