Scenario: University of Science (T3)
Pokemon #1:
Gunhilde the Tyranitar
Pokemon Ability: Sand Stream
Pokemon Item: Weakness Policy
Pokemon Attitude: Confident and conceited. Gunhilde is happiest when she's able to throw her weight around and hold dominance over her surroundings.
Pokemon Background: Gunhilde's previous trainer was interested only in her utility, putting her to work in heavy labor. Following his arrest, Gunhilde languished in storage before making her escape the first time she was released from her ball. She lived within city limits for months as a feral Pokemon, wracking up quite the hefty bounty in property damage taking what she needed. Rather than hand Gunhilde over and claim the reward for her capture, Lou offered her a place in his team.
Pokemon #2:
Janus the Gallade
Pokemon Ability: Steadfast
Pokemon Item: Expert Belt
Pokemon Attitude: Boisterous and competitive. Janus seeks always innovate in his technique, and often pesters other Pokemon to annoyance trying to get them to train with him.
Pokemon Background: Twin of Juno and former contest competitor, bred and groomed for the role. Forced into pagentry as a Kirlia, Janus moved through the motions in a fog of apathy, until one contest devolved into a battle over a judging dispute. He found a spark in combat that he has chased ever after. He learned of a stone that could bring him closer to his goal and pilfered one as soon as he had the chance. Irreversably changed from the show-stopper his trainer had made him to be, Janus found himself discarded and adrift, until he crossed paths with Juno and Lou.

As a student of the University of Driftveil, you've always been one to seek out new academic opportunities, and as you make your way towards your next class, you can't help but notice the mysterious flashing light coming from one of the universities prestigious laboratories. Unovan universities are famous for their meteorology programs, so you figure that the lab's researchers are conducting more weather experiments. Interested in the study of weather yourself, you decide to forego your next class to investigate what is happening in the lab.
However, you notice that there is a Pokemon standing in front of the door to the lab. This suggests that the experiments being conducted are top secret, but you're just too curious to forget about it. The door is still far away so you can't quite make out who the lab's bouncer is, but you do notice that it bears resemblance to your partner Janus. You figure that strolling right by and walking in is not an option, but you know that there is only one entrance to this particular lab.
LouisCyphre, how do you get past the Pokemon guarding the lab's entrance?

Jolly nature ( +Speed, -Sp.Attack, +10% Accuracy )
Typing: Psychic/Fighting
Abilities: Steadfast HA: Justified
Name Etymology:
Two-faced god of beginnings, doorways, and the passage of time in Roman myth. Rituals to other gods would begin and end with rites honoring Janus, to mark the transition between mortal moments and divine ones.
Attitude and Motive:
Boisterous and competitive. Janus seeks always innovate in his technique, and often pesters other Pokemon to annoyance trying to get them to train with him.
History:
Twin of Juno and former contest competitor, bred and groomed for the role.
