<span style='color:darkblue'>"Wendy and Wally, you guys fight the ones with the Bulbasaur and the Wynaut. Winifred and Wendell can fight the girl that just walked in and the guy that hasn't said anything. Me and Wilma will take on the other two."</span>
<span style='color:gray'>"So what's YOUR name?" Silver asked, noticing that all the others started with W.</span>
<span style='color:darkblue'>"Frank."</span>
<span style='color:gray'>"...Well that was unexpected. Uh, go on, Twister!" The Pidgey, who was still waiting on Silver's shoulder, flew onto the battlefield </span><span style='color:darkblue'>after their opponents released a Corphish and a Tentacool. Glenn and Stevenson found themselves fighting a Poliwag and a Psyduck, and up against Neo and Rhianna were Marril and a Surskit.</span>

"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

<span style='color:blue'>"Okay, Flare, stay out of this. Skye, I might use you later. That leaves you, Shroomish. Get out there and show that Surskit who's boss!"
"Shroom."
"The Surskit it NOT the boss, okay? Now use Absorb!"</span>
<span style='color:darkblue'>"Quick Attack, Surskit!"</span>

<span style='color:darkblue'>"Psyduck, use tail whip!" shouted a trainer.</span>
"<span style='color:orange'>Aha! Bubbles, use encore!"
Bubbles clapped it's....uh.....feet, I guess, making the psyduck unable to use any more attacks.</span>
<span style='color:darkblue'>"Curses! Now I can't attack you!"</span>

<span style='color:pink'>"Dodge and use tackle again!" Opal ordered as Mudkip dodged the poison sting and tackled the Corphis."</span>
<span style='color:darkblue'>"Gah! Return Corphis!" The angry pre trainer person returned his pokemon.
"Looks like it's up to me. Tentacool, use another poison sting!"</span>

<span style='color:blue'>"Oi! I'm not done yet!" Rhianna glanced at Neo. "You going to do something?" she asked as her Shroomish used Absorb on the Surskit again, fainting it.</span>

<span style='color:gray'>"Let's get rid of that Tentacool now! Use Gust, Twister!"</span>
After Twister's Gust attack and another Tackle from Opal's Mudkip, the Tentacool went down, which left only Neo and Rhianna still battling.
((Mandi, if you want to controll Neo until the end of the battle since he's gone off to become an 00ber airplane man, go ahead; if not, you can just... say they won.))

(I'll take the easy way out and say we won. ^^)(Um, so do we pretend Neo left after this? oo)
<span style='color:blue'>"Finally..." Rhianna sighed after the second Pokemon had fainted. "Sorry to keep you guys waiting." She smiled sheepishly. "Um...shall we go on?"</span>

<span style='color:orange'>"Indeed. So, uh, let's challenge the gym leader I suppose. If that's alright wiht you, that is." said Stevenson timidly. He felt no need to rush things.</span>

((Well, Neo's going to stick around until after the gym battle, then he's gonna go off on his own. As for the gym battle itself... I guess we can just... say he won.))
<span style='color:gray'>"Right. To the next floor! Or if we want to get into the aquatic mood here... DIVE! DIVE! DIVE!" Silver shouted, heading for the stairs after his Pidgey had jumped back on his shoulder.</span>
The layout of the lower floor was similar to the one above it - a path through the aquarium thing with the gym leader waiting at the end. However, this floor gave off the appearance of the ocean floor, with Pokemon such as Clamperl and Chinchou swimming around the aquarium type thing that surrounded anyone who made it that far. Which was most everyone that challenged the gym. The gym trainers weren't exactly very strong. It was also dark down there because the floor where the gym trainers waited was blocking most of the light from passing through the water.
