Description
In a swift and hostile takeover at the start of the next round, Esrever, a Giratina Burst, has plunged the arena into the Distortion World, corrupted the Burst Hearts that were waiting in the Warriors' hands, and is sending a clone army against the humans, forcing them to merge and fight with the corrupted Shadow Pokemon.
While our hero managed to get the full exosuit on the field, Growlithe's unevolved status meant the little guy couldn't burst all of the armour and ended up leaving a lot of space exposed. Nevertheless, we're taking it in our stride and rolling with it anyway!
Additional Notes:
-- Assigned to the Attack Squad.
-- Erlade will not be acting like a dorky hero during this round - Recognising a REAL crisis when she sees it, she's ditching the Hero persona for her crisis mangement training and considers herself the de facto Squad Leader (despite the fact this attitude will ruffle a few feathers, it's in her nature to just take charge like this) - she'll be barking out orders to the other warriors, trying to utilize some semblance of strategy in the midst of the chaos.
-- If she gets a clear shot, she will not hesitate to take it, but is aware she's one of the few warriors not being overridden by the Shadow Pkmn's will, and is more likely to hang back to cover her team and offer support through Helping Hand.

Very impressive design. Can't wait to see the story. Altho you might want to make future suits a bit more bulky. Erlade according to the description you made is suppose to be a guy. This suit looks like only woman can wear it (the last two suits in my option had the same problem), Were as the first two looked like any one could be inside. Remember to whole point of a secret identity is that it's suppose to be a secret.

Well, sorry to break it to you, but Erlade is actually female - The ambiguous gender thing is a running joke with my self-insert character who has been mistaken for a guy many times over the years (and even mistaken IRL too).
While R1 and R2 were full transformations of the outer suit, R3 was not. It was direct transformations with the undersuit, which is form-fitting and thus, a bit more shapely. R4, the design is still rather androgynous - You can get feminine looking boys just as much as you can get masculine girls.
As far as the identity being secret goes, several of the other Bursters have already figured it out, and she's had time to assess the other warriors - You don't know what the story plan is for R4, so no backseat driving, please. I know what I'm doing here ~

Oh my.......... I'm sorry. Please allow me to explain my self. I was only trying to give some (friendly?) advice. I knew who Erlade really was (Read your comics before reading the character descriptions), I meant most of the other character with in the story, But if you say she's had time to assess the other warriors then I am mistaken. Thank you for the correction on the past armor/suit as I don't quite get these burst things. All and all I'm very sorry that I came a cross as criticizing you and appearing to be a backseat driver that was not my intent as It's clear that you are a very capable and talented woman. I'll make sure to watch my self should I ever comment on your work again. Again I am sorry.

Funnily enough, this actually happens pretty often. Among other things, I do get a lot of people who try to derail my stories or push things that don't work on the characters. Granted that most of that happens on the Ask Blogs on Tumblr now, but before Tumblr came along, it was all here on DA.
I tend to be the kind of writer who leaves hints all over the place, that are obvious if you know what you're looking for, making the possible climax more exciting for those who know what the characters are building towards. If one doesn't see the clues, then the 'reveal' is that more intense and suddenly makes people go back and reread things. It's almost always a case of 'wait and see' with my comics, since usually the only thing you can expect from me is the unexpected.
And at the end of the day, I'm not known for sugarcoating my commentary, so don't take my curt response to mean that I'm angry at you, okay?

I understand. One last time I'm sorry for the trouble I created and thank you for putting up with it and for the correction regarding your burst armor/suits.

This turned out really kickass! I like the fact that the Growlithe couldn't burst through all of the exosuit. It's a really nice touch.
Your references are always very detailed. <3
