Battle Details: Kirin will lead off with Confusion both for damage and stalling, tossing in Tail Whip and Growl if given the chance for stat lowering. Presuming this is enough to deal with Noctowl, he'll switch out to Frostbearer--assuming both that Honchkrow is faster and that Snorunt can survive an initial attack, he'll answer with Avalanche for that sweet double damage with a 2x weakness. He's even handed Frostbearer one of those wacky curative berries he's been seeing here and there in the wild while training. Just in case. If all this should go according to keikaku, he'll switch to send out another 'Snorunt' against Pidgeot. Which...immediately uses Fake Tears, because it's actually a Zorua. Should Foul Play not be enough to deal with Pidgeot, depending on if Kirin has fainted or not he'll make an attempt to switch back to the actual Snorunt for another try with Avalanche or return to the Confusion+stat lowering strategy with his Ponyta.
Win or lose, he is extremely polite to Falkner, but in that weird sort of way that sounds astonishingly like condescension and/or a thinly veiled murder plan. Sorry, buddy. It's really not your fault he can't stand you.
