[likewise, archie's clearly amazed at krookodile getting back up, but he breaks out into a big grin when the croc does. maybe it's weird, but he's happy for the perseverance and he's happy that it's not hurt too badly. they're really giving it their all for nanu, huh? ah! such a thing could bring a tear to his eye. arcues, he loves pokémon so much.
he barely gets time to react before honchkrow is out and using aerial ace-- archie can practically tell it's a critical hit from the force of it throwing sharpedo back into the lake. it takes a moment to right itself and unable to tell how much damage it's done from the distance, archie just... wades into the lake until he's waist deep in it.]
You good? [it bobs in the water in a nod.] Alright.
[he backs up. retakes his position. clears his throat.]
