Namaka's form dissolves into a mysterious darkness, then he reappears as a facsimile of Pa'ao!
As Pa'ao approaches the two Elekids, they pause their sparring match to greet him.
Iudex translates the resulting conversation for you:
Elekid 1: Hi! Who are you?
Pa'ao: I'm Pa'ao, that's my trainer over there.
Elekid 2: Looks like a dork.
Elekid 1: Be nice! Sorry about that, Pa'ao. My younger brother is a hothead.
Pa'ao: It's alright. So my trainer was wondering if you two would like to spar.
Elekid 2: Sure! A fight's always fun.
Elekid 1:
How about us two against you and one of your friends, Pa'ao?
Pa'ao:
You're on! I'll go let me trainer know.Spoiler
Show
Elekid 2: How?
Pa'ao: Iudex over there can speak human.
Elekid 1: Fascinating! Alright, we'll be over here waiting.
Pa'ao comes back to you and looks to you for who his partner will be. The Elekids look excited for a fun battle.
"...huh!"
Mordecai was generally impressed. "Wow, that's absolutely nothing like what I would've figured that conversation was about. Thanks, Iudex, Pa'ao. Hmmm..."
"Dile?"
Mordecai shook his head. "No, it'd be slightly unfair since we prepared ahead of time, heh. Kaulu!"
The mankey came out with a nod. "In lieu of Kamoho, how about you be their sparring partner?"
Kaulu glanced at Pa'ao, and nodded. Among other things, Mordecai was very curious how they'd work together.

Releasing Kaulu to G-6!
I'll use faster on Pa'ao, and Stronger on Kaulu - as for once it's important which. :P
Kaulu's speed is 11, Pa'ao's is 10. Man it's weird having not-abysmally-speeded mon. Also uh, how will this work?

Your Drilbur and Mankey will be "sparring" with the Elekids, which will work like this:
- Temporary HP = to normal HP, but when they "faint" they'll still be at full HP in reality.
- Double battle = it's actually Drilbur and Mankey acting on their own as opposed to Mordecai controlling them, but for all intents and purposes, you (Kanto) will be controlling them.
- Stakes = ?? Win and you'll find out :smalltongue:
Oh and they both have > 11 speed so they'll be going first.
The Elekids ask if your two combatants are ready, and they nod in assent. Then they bump fists and jump back a few steps before firing some electricity bullets at your Pokemon.
"Game on!"

Thundershock! x2 (one on Pa'ao and one on Kaulu)

They quickly catch on to Pa'ao's immunity to electricity. "Brother! That one didn't even flinch!"
"We'll have to change our tactics!"
A not nearly as cool retaliation!

The Elekid Bros then grab each other and use each other as leverage to swing around in a coordinated effort to sweep your team's legs.

"Dile!" Kamoho seemed quite excited at the Elekid's attack - which made Mordecai wonder what precisely it was about it that the totodile found so interesting, but it was well coordinated.
Kaulu leaned forward, as if into the attack, then swayed backwards into an elegant - he smashed into Pa'ao, causing the attack to strike home - the mole slammed it aside, but Kaulu was more of the dodging sort and was thus unable to do so. Mordecai exhaled, shaking his head slightly - obviously those two would need more practice working together.
Kaulu braced himself to attempt a return combination attack - when Pa'ao retaliated, just clawing the same one with no real regardes to Kaulu. The mankey sighed for half a moment, before joining Pa'ao in striking at his target.
"Dile! Toto!"
That... actually sounded like Kamoho was cheering. Which was what the totodile was doing - actually cheering on his teammates. Mordecai had to hope it was 'cheering on his teammates' and not 'egging on Pa'ao', but it didn't seem to bother Pa'ao to hear it this time, so maybe.

Kaulu and Pa'ao both use scratch! It's not a combination because Pa'ao is a spoilsport! They're both aiming for E1 this time!

Pa'ao and Kaulu's combination dual attacks are enough to knock the wind out of the older Elekid bro, who raises an arm in concession of defeat. The younger one, determined to fight on, shoots a burst of electricity out of its plug-like head point-black at Kaulu.

Kaulu's dodge was again checked by Pa'ao - this time, because he consciously was avoiding running into the drillbur which murdered his ability to dodge. The thunderbolt knocked him to his back, where he stood - but conceeded.
"Drill!" (Just you'n me now!) Muttered Pa'ao, as he gave another claw at the offending elekid - after taking a punch to the jaw with a growl.
"Dile! Dile!"

Kaulu goes down to the electricity, so the quick attack nails Pa'ao.
Pa'ao then uses scratch once more! Go repetition mole!
