Cave Area 3: Central Caverns - Ill Winds are blowing!
"Crrick!"
You decide to take the other path on the left of the ancient door, but before you move towards that path, a shivering chill runs down your spine as an Ill wind blows across you all. The ill winds change Anna's mood to being Impish too, whereas, Bisharp and Mulan's paralysis ease up a little.

Cave Area 4: South West Lake Cavern
As you move through the path, you notice how this part of the cavern is a complete contrast to the south eastern caverns. This part of the cavern is damp and the walls and floor are cold with water dropping from the ceiling. You see some stalactites and stalagmites at the end of the path and it would seem that the path doesn't lead any further. However, as Motélé had sensed earlier there is a small stream on your right that runs along the path you came from, and it flows into a lake. You observe some creatures moving inside the lake, which seems deep, and the water seems to be mildly cold. However, you could swim in it if you so desire; But remember if you dare to do such a thing, then you would have to pull your own weight within.

Motélé enters the cold water of the lake, just enough to let a powerful Discharge through it. The creatures let out a shriek before they scram for cover as the powerful electric attack came as a surprise for them. But they seem to be lurking somewhere close, ready to strike back when the time is right.
Near the edge of the lake, Anna could sense that they are getting close to her goals and her mood becomes lively, and full of spirit.

Cave Area 4: South West Lake Cavern (Battle With Magikarps)
Motélé decided to go after the Magikarps even though they got scared away and were at a distance from it. Although when it tried to use Thunder, it was not sure where to aim at and missed to hit any of the Magikarps.
Demon Blade however wanted to paralyze anything inside the lake with a Thunder Wave, which seemed impossible as the attack is not powerful.
[Rotom-w: Thunder, Accuracy Check(5250): 6154(Miss) , -7 EN (Motélé)]
[Bisharp: Thunder Wave on Lake, -7 EN (Demon Blade)] [Too weak to paralyze creatures inside a lake.]
Motélé was loving its time in the lake and was ready to spam yet another powerful attack in the water. The attack sends a shiver down the scales of the magikarps and they run as far as possible for cover. They may or may not come back, but it is more likely that they will stay away for a while.

Demon Blade, seeing that all the attacks have been fired; entered the lake to explore it for Items. As Demon Blade started desending into the lake, his weight was pulling him down and walking in the water was becoming difficult for him. However, he obliged to the orders of his trainer and started looking for items. He couldn't find any yet, but he seems to be running out of breath.

Cave Area 4: South West Lake Cavern (Battle With Magikarps)
Motélé decided to head into the lake and could see Demon Blade slowly moving towards the center of the lake. The water was getting colder and colder as Motélé was heading further down towards Demon Blade. Whereas, Demon Blade was moving with a lot of difficulty in the ice cold water at the bottom of the lake. After a number of steps, He could see a black rod like item a little far away. But while he was walking towards it, he saw a big blob slowly approaching him.
[Rotom-w: Head into the lake, -4 EN (Motélé)]
[Bisharp: Exploring the bottom of the lake, -4 EN (Demon Blade)]
Motélé reached Demon Blade and immediately targeted the bottom of the lake with a Volt Switch while holding onto Demon Blade. Demon Blade didn't resist Motélé as he was out of breath and was asked not to drown by his trainer. However, as Motélé was dragging Demon Blade out of the lake with it, it lost the momentum from the Volt Switch as Demon Blade was as heavy as Motélé and more heavy under water. Motélé was stuck along with Demon Blade about a quarter of the way back and was losing energy at a rapid pace.
[Rotom-w: Volt Switch holding Bisharp, -8 EN (Motélé)]
[Bisharp: Holding onto Rotom-w, -2 EN (Demon Blade)]
Looking at the action happening within the lake, the Magikarp were getting curious and started watching Motélé and Demon Blade from a little far away. One of the Magikarp however came a little too close to the duo. Above the lake, Anna and Mulan were Calm and composed expecting Motélé and Demon Blade to come back up with the item any second.
Anna's Moody: [Roll(16000): 12366 (Calm), (+2 SpA, -1 Atk) ]
Bisharp's Breath under water: 0a
Bisharp would struggle for breath: 2 Rounds
The team can go back to get the item that Demon Blade found, or head back to Central Caverns.
Please Note:
Bisharp cannot come back up on his own, due to his weight and him not knowing Dive.
Bisharp may faint if he doesn't surface before the end of two rounds.
Rotom-w will suffer consecutive move penalty while it is holding onto bisharp.
In future rounds, Defiant cannot be boosted by an ally's attack.

A quarter of the way back seems like it should be far enough to breath again, seeing as Bisharp would not get too far after no longer being able to breathe due to its high weight and low speed.
Anyways, have Bisharp use Dig and then surface outside of the lake (it should only take 1 action to get high enough that water no longer fills the hole, even if Bisharp can't surface that quickly). Meanwhile, I use Foresight on the item to determine what it is.
If Bisharp can't get out using Dig, then travel as far into the water as I can while still being able to breathe, and then pull Bisharp out (having him grab on to the blade of my sword while I hold on the handle if needed). This might take a few actions, but it should be able to get Bisharp out.
Cave Area 4: South West Lake Cavern (Battle With Magikarps)
Motélé released Demon Blade and went into the lake, It then propelled itself deeper into the lake by using volt switch on Demon Blade, this in-turn pushed Demon Blade to the surface and He could breathe again. Mulan seeing that Demon Blade couldn't Dig himself up from under the lake without running out of breath, decided to enter the lake himself, while making sure to stick his neck out on the surface so that he doesn't end up in a situation like Demon Blade.

Motélé reaches the bottom of the lake in dash and was luckily close enough to the item to see it, It picked it up and released a powerful blast of water towards the Lake-bed, but was unable to reach the surface with the momentum it got. Motélé then decided to swim the rest of the way, but seeing that their precious treasure had been stolen from them, the Magikarp cling on to Motélé, dragging it down while they took turns attacking Motélé, to make sure it dropped their treasure back.

Meanwhile on the surface, Mulan struggled to still keep his head above the water and reach Demon Blade at the same time, however Demon Blade who was at the surface rigorously flapped his arms and legs in order to swim towards Mulan. They both just managed to reach each other before Demon Blade lost his breath again. Mulan then pulled Demon Blade up with difficulty, but they were both safe on the surface at the moment panting for breath and laughing at each other.

Anna's Moody: [Roll(15000): 5954 (Relaxed), (+2 Def, -10% Evasion) ]
The team can attempt to retrieve the item by fighting off the Magikarp, or head back to Central Caverns abandoning Rotom-W.
Please Note:
Rotom-W cannot come up on its own as it is being held down by the Magikarps, until it releases the item.

Soft sand on the bottom of the lake would have no impact on the speed at which Rotom flies out. That speed is based upon the speed at which the water is ejected, not what happens to it afterwards. I don't know if that would change anything, but it might.
Also, these orders assume that Rotom and the Magikarp are both underwater and out of reach from anyone outside the lake. They also assume that water-types can breathe normally while underwater. If either of these are wrong, I would like a chance to re-order.
Me: Chill - Foresight (to determine exactly what the item is)
If any Magikarp comes out of the lake to attack me or Bisharp, push it back into the lake with Strength.
Bisharp: Chill - Chill
If any Magikarp comes out of the lake to attack me or Bisharp, hit it with Thunder Wave.
