"Aw, no!  Slarzog, recall!"  The wounded insect-thing swirls back into the ball as Rusty tosses another.  "Dodrio, I choose you!"
A weird looking critter pops out of this ball: a giant three-headed turkey!  It skitters forward, clucking and gurgling, seeming no more than a harmless oddity until it unleashes an obliterating strike!
The chimera obliterates the desert; wards off the gaze of the flower as it reflexively conceals the kick of the iron!
