It's kind of sad that society goes for the 'luck' and the 'appeal' when they should go for the 'hidden power.'\" The Galar champion is getting excited and he pump his fists out in front of him. \"I wouldn't mind if we battled just to see if you *Really* Brought out their power, though.\" Challenging another champion is a great way to see how he would fare between the world's strongest leader, seeing if *He* Could be the best. In the end though, it's all just to rile Eden up, even if just for a little. Most are here for vacation but Leon can't help but get a little battle hungry since he has been centering around that for a long while now. Battling might as well be the relaxation he needs. But he tries to brush that aside for the sake of it. \"I also would like to make curry for them. I make interesting dishes.

He really wants to see Aegislash dispatched with this Perish a Song ~~for styles~~. When a Wil-o-Wisp comes by, Aegislash brings its shield up to protect itself by instinct. The Pokémon itself also looks distressed from this. Not only was there the Perish Song to worry about, it's the chip damage from the possible *Burn* Status as well.\n\n\"Ah...\" Leon scratches the back of his head, thinking what his next move should be.

Trusting his trainer, the Pokémon initiaties the attack and the ritual-like shadows from the Wil-o-Wisp spreads from where Aegislash stands.

Too bad such a strategy could be so common. \"King's Shield,\" Leon simply tell his Pokémon.

So instead, Leon commands it to use Shadow Ball. The same dark energy ball that Cinderace produced before appears in front of the shield of Aegislash. It shoots!

From this hand would be a thin black line of pure darkness, shooting through the grass towards the opposing Pokemon, linking Gengar's shadow to Aegislash... Before there was a feeling of pain. Aegislash seemed to feel the weight of its own attack, and Gengar immediately felt itself reinvigorated and once again able to put up a Substitute.

It's frustrating at points but this makes it more exciting. He's not ready to lie belly up, though, as the Galar champion throws out another move for Aegislash. Shadow Ball forms again and it blasts a tree nearby. The trunk is weakened, causing it to fall over toward the battlefield.

For once, Gengar's smile changes to a frown for a split second, before the eerie grin comes back, and it begins to chant something rather quickly under its breath.

At the small corner of his mind, Leon felt played. It's like that game of Tic-tac-toe, where no matter where you put your mark, there's always another line for them to beat you. He admits that. \"Well played, Eden. Well played.\" If he wanted to look at the bright side, Gengar has fainted also. Returning his Pokémon to his Pokéball, Leon whispers to it. \"You did amazing.

No, he can't be. It's exciting to face such a foe and it makes the Galar champ even more impressed that Eden could behold this beast in a Pokéball. Although, it wasn't a normal ball, he knows.

Out comes Charizard, his MVP, his partner, his *Friend.* \"Witness this, Eden. Witness what Galar is made of!\" Withdrawing Charizard back, the Dynamax bracelet at Leon's wrist glows red.

If he remembered correctly, dynamax and the transformation counterpart only lasted for a certain time... Plus, he had **That** On his side.* \"Use Infestation!\" *The pitcher plant turned and quickly \"Nodded\", as it didn't really have any neck. Slamming the ground with its tail to gain some height, it jumped up a little, tilting its pitcher sideways as a number of small black dots came out; these were insects. They were incredibly small normally, and the massive Charizard likely wouldn't be able to see them at all as they began to buzz around its feet and knees; soon enough, he'd be feeling their effect, and the fact he was gigantified would just annoy the Fire-type more.* \"Watch out! He's gonna have strong moves!\" *As Victreebel landed, it guarded its plant with the red leaf it usually did, placing its \"Arms\" In front of its body as well and waiting.*" }, { "author": "Deleted User", "message": "Normally Leon would be excited at this stage. Whenever he Gigantamax Charizard, it's a spectacle for both himself and the people who witness it. This part is where he's supposed to have fun *Dominating* The battle.

The Infestation takes its hit but Leon is already ready for the next move. \"You can do this, buddy,\" He says sternly to Charizard and cross his arms. His partner that has been with him since day one would know what is useful and what is not. G-max Charizard roars, it being as loud as to reverberate the skies.

When the attack finished, Eden was rather surprised— this thing could do that a few more times, got stronger for every attack, and had double HP; well, he should've seen this coming... But instead of thinking to the future, he had to focus on **Now**.* \"Victory, can you still battle?\" *His Victreebel unrooted itself, turning back to him with something like grim determination, which Eden's face mirrored.* \"Alright, let's see if you can give this thing a run for its money...\" *Victreebel ate its Sitrus Berry, regaining some of its HP.* \"Alright, use Toxic!!\" *Victory's leaf was removed from its pitcher as it began to make strange gurgling noises. Soon enough, a bubble began to rise from its \"Mouth\", made from the juicy acid it had in there. The bubble continued to grow and grow in size, until it was much bigger than Victory, still connected to its face.

As the tail launches towards Victreebel, coming closer and closer, it does something unexpected. It jumps. As it does this, instead of taking the full hit of the tail and potentially getting crushed, it's flung up into the air by the attack... However, it was still damage, and chances are, Victory will faint upon impact with the ground... So, it does the only thing it can do. As it reaches the peak of the ascension, it gets as close as it can to the Gigantamax Pokemon, tilts its pitcher, and lets out a powerful cloud of acidic poison almost instantly, like a bomb went off. In reality, this was it using the move Belch, thanks to the berry it had consumed earlier and its... Biology ~~it eats people alive~~. However, that was all it had in it, and soon after, it began to fall, hitting the ground, where it quickly went unconscious.*\n\n*As it faints, the area distorts again and then it becomes apparent why these slow Pokemon have been able to compete with his generally fast team... When Noctem slammed its hands before it recklessly charged in to its death, it had executed a Trick Room. Thanks to this, Eden's slower team had been able to move at a good clip, but now it was up.

The variant showed a valiant effort and Leon looks up to his Charizard to see if his partner is still hanging on. \"You alright up there, bud?\" The fiery snarl it holds answers Leon before the Pokémon roar out again in robust. But even the champ knows Charizard is trying its best to fight the infestation that's nipping at it. He would have to end this as quickly as possible.

A tough foe for sure, though definitely not anything the team couldn't defeat. Quickly muttering, it set up a Light Screen, then used a Reflect in succession to half any damage that might come their way, before waiting to see what move this huge opponent would use, as Eden thought to himself.* 'If we can just stall this thing out and back to normal size...

Use your G-max Wildfire!\" Gaping its mouth open while watching Grimmsnarl getting closer and closer, Charizard blows out a heaping amount of fire. With the sun above the sky, it could compare to that brightness and strength if the sun was to fall from the sky.

However, it wasn't down for the count just yet... As it spun in the air, for an instant, Eden locked eyes with the Dark/Fairy type, and for what was basically the first time in the battle, he disregarded his more calm demeanour as he watched his Pokemon keep falling... Falling... But if there was one advantage to this, just one, it was that Grimmsnarl was small, and Charizard was still big. So, this would work just fine, as Eden took a breath and yelled as loudly as he could.* \"USE TOXIC!\" *His command reached the Pokémon who stopped wildly flailing as it heard its trainers voice. Shooting out two tendrils, they latched around Charizard's left leg and Grimmsnarl was pulled in, an ant bear hugging a giant. However, he still had his job to do, as the prankster Pokemon began to gargle in its throat, something rising up from its stomach and quickly filling its mouth. But oh no, Grimm was still a bit petty, so he would go out with a roar and not a whisper. Leaning back as the poisonous ink filled its mouth, it rammed itself into Charizard's legs and bit down as hard as it could with its four fanged teeth, the Poison quickly spurting out and into the wound. Quite the nasty mosquito bite, as the size difference made Grimm no bigger than one in terms of scaling.*" }, { "author": "Deleted User", "message": "Charizard roars out loudly from this and wriggles around. Feeling the poison course through its veins angers the fire/flying type as it continues to shrink smaller and smaller to its original size. Easily grabbing onto the Grimmsnarl, Charizard steels through this 'badly poisoned' status and careens toward the ground together. Tucking in its wings and diving head first, the Pokémon gains enough speed that when it releases its hold on Grimmsnarl, the opposing 'mon would be thrown rapidly toward the ground. Charizard opens its wings up to slow himself down from the air as it wobble back to the battlefield, G-Max completely gone. With the combination of Infestation and Toxic, it won't be long before Charizard falls... And Leon wants to stop this to prevent him from seeing his partner suffer any longer. \"Ch... Charizard...\" He starts with a shaky breath. As Leon puts his foot forward to reach out to his partner, Charizard would puff up its wings, as if the notion is that it wants to continue.

Eden winced lightly and immidiately jogged over to his Pokemon, who seemed to be lightly spamsing in the mud, not exactly fainted, but clearly unfit for battle. Reaching the group of people, he bent and put one arm of his fallen friend over his shoulder, both dragging him backwards towards his side of the field and displaying rather impressive strength to do so. Grimmsnarl looked at Charizard as it was taken away, not saying anything, but clearly not-so happy about its even-dirtier hairs. Eden sighed and slumped as they reached his side of the field, sliding the Pokemon off himself and propping Grimm against a tree. Digging into a small can on his belt, he pulled out an Iapapa Berry which he gave to Grimm to recover.* \"I'll fix your hair later, but for now, sit tight. 'Kay?\" *His Pokemon dejectedly nodded as Eden turned back to his opponent.* \n\n\"Impressive... You definetly aren't a Champion for nothing. Even if King decided to be... King, I've still effectively only got my last Pokemon left. Not many people can take out 4 on my **Normal** Team, let alone 5...So I suppose you can pat yourself on the back for that.\" *Stopping, he gave a small grin; this one conveyed many emotions. He was happy, sad, and a little angry all at the same time... He didn't normally find himself throwing this one out, but then again, that was a good thing.* \"Are you still able to continue? I'm sure my ace is rather... Upset at the defeat of his friends, so it'd be nice to...\" *He trailed off. He would've said 'let off steam', but that implied an easy victory. While Charizard was clearly almost down and out, he didn't want to indignify the man after Leon's Pokemon had worked so hard against his heavily-augmented ones. Grabbing the third black Pokeball, which almost shook in his hand, he waited for Leon's response, though he was pretty sure what the answer would be.*" }, { "author": "Deleted User", "message": "Leon turns toward Monika's voice. Considering his options once more, he pulls out his Pokéball. \"She's right, buddy...\" Charizard raises its ears from this and turn back to its partner. When Eden mentioned how it's just his *Normal* Team that he used, Leon grunts. He knows his other team would include the UBs, or is there another set? Leon wants to see Eden's final Pokémon as he draws it. But he doesn't want to watch Charizard get defeated. His pal always won with him. *Always*. He isn't ready to see Charizard go down if he doesn't have to. Feeling slightly pathetic, he withdraws his Pokémon. \"Return.\" Charizard seemed like it was trying to fight the beam, teeth gnashing, but in the end, he's badly damaged and couldn't struggle against it anymore. He was withdrawn to his Pokéball. Leon holds it in his palm, looking down before heaving a heavy sigh. He lost. Pulling the visor of his snapback over his face, Leon takes a moment as this whole thing sinks in. It was a fierce match, one that he haven't experience before. Even against Raihan, this one was on a different level. And hey, he is still the champion of Galar! This battle has nothing to do with status. Still, it stung to lose since it's the first time for him. He was unbeatable... Until now. \"That was a great match!\" Leon yelled across the field to Eden. \"I'm glad I got to battle you!\" His eyes are still hidden under the visor but he has a smile on his face. That's when the man approaches Eden, at least to give the victor a handshake." }, { "author": "pancake_kaiser", "message": "*As Leon begins to recall Charizard, Eden gives out a loooong exhale as he puts the ball away. He doesn't react to how said ball begins to shake even more wildly until its firmly on his belt. He simply realizes that in this moment, it's best to be humble. Dropping Pokemon from the sky, Perish-Trap Destiny Bond, a rather excessive whipping attack, sheer, overwhelming power from a colossal Pokemon, and finally, Toxic stall. Thinking on it, his team plays **Really** Dirty and he's honestly a bit relieved he doesn't use them in public because as he thinks on it, people would probably hate him. But focusing back on Leon, who seems to smile through his disappointment, again— the best thing to do is to be humble. He gives a nod, accepting the man's handshake.* \"It was a good fight— you're one of few people to get that far against me.\" *Giving the same small smile he usually had as he began to pull away from their shake, he turned to Grimm, who had begun to peacefully snooze, propped up against the tree. Pulling out his ball, the Dark/Fairy Pokemon returned, as Eden made a mental note to try and set aside a good chunk of time for grooming; Grimm deserved it for sure.*" }, { "author": "Deleted User", "message": "Leon lets out a laugh before fixing his cap back in place. \"Really? I'm honored to have gotten that far with you then!\" Also pulling away from the handshake, Leon glimpses over to the Grimmsnarl just as Eden did. A flash of anger runs through Leon, reminded that *That's* The Pokémon that hurt Charizard along with Seismitoad. He instantly regret feeling that way a split second later and quickly turns on his heels, facing the forest. It's *Wrecked.* Most likely caused by the Gigantamax. All that to beat *One* Pokémon. Leon is ashamed. He checked the area to see if everyone is alright, but considering they're strong trainers, they should be able to handle themselves in harsh battle conditions. The Galar champ really wanted to suggest curry next. He really did, but the feeling in his chest makes him almost choke. He doesn't understand why he's taking this so hard. They're both *Champions* So of course the battle would be intense with the likelihood that he could be defeated as well. But that first loss will always be the hardest. Leon admires Eden and is glad that he's the one that ~~broke his streak~~ he lost to. Wordlessly, Leon leaves the area, heading for the forest to catch himself a break. His feet seem to move on their own as he scoop up his cape, exiting the scene. He doesn't want to make anyone worry so he casually call over his shoulder, \"I'll be back!\" Before disappearing." } ]

Now that everything more or less calmed down, Leon couldn't help but laugh aloud heartily. \"That was *Great*!\" Leon pats Allister's back, who's sitting in front of him. He admittedly still felt tense from upsetting the little boy back at the clothes store. Oh yeah. Leon still had that lacy tank top on! How embarrassing... \n\nRipping it off, he throws the tank top into the air in front of him... Bad idea. The piece of fabric flies back to them, covering Charizard's face! For some reason, the orange beast struggled even though it clearly saw what it was (not like it was some unknown Pokémon attacking them!). \"H-hold still, buddy!\" He tries to reach around Allister to get the tank off from his partner's face, but the Pokémon is wiggling around too much for Leon to get a clear grip on him.\n\nMeanwhile, Charizard gnashes its teeth against the top. Since Leon used those face powder as a smoke bomb before, some of it caught on the clothing. So with Charizard's sensitive smell and big nostrils, getting a whiff of that causes the flying/fire-type to sneeze! And with Leon already in a daring position of trying to get that tank top off his partner's head—he slipped from Charizard's back altogether. Being the person that would instinctively reach out and hold onto *Anything* To stop unexpecting movements, the champ clings onto the nearest thing. Well, *Person*. Guess who it is?\n\nLeon is falling while his arms are wrapped around Allister. They were already above the lake so the fall wouldn't be that bad. Or so it seemed.

The Galarian man tries to to apply a good amount of pressure as he wrapped the gauze tape around Allister's skinny legs.

Not feeling like you *Have* To say something when everyone understands.\nWell, the not awkward silence was interrupted but Leon, indirectly making Allister realize how much he might have just messed up...\n\"Agh, I did-\" He said, with a tone that sounded like someone just realizing something.

But of course, it wasn't *Just* For others, Leon wanted it for *Himself*, too. Call the guy self-centered but he always saw himself as the main character of a story and here he is now, Champion of Galar! It all seemed like a dream, and when he was there standing in the middle of Wyndon Stadium holding his trophy and everyone calling out to him, it was so, so glorious. \"Ha! I felt like it was my fate to become Champion too! That's why I went for it!\" He beats himself on the chest in a show-off way.\n\nEverything was great in the beginning. The fame got his ego going, the paparazzi made him feel like those popular kids in school... But then, it kind of got... Old? Leon always had the feeling but he never voiced it to anyone. If you gained Champion title, what reason is there to complain? He found out, though, that being the strongest trainer in the region isn't all fun and games. Stupid expectations like meetings and having talks with the Chairman once in a while was his least favorites. And holding Galar's reputation get a bit... Bothersome when all he wanted was to battle and have fun.\n\n... When Leon thinks about it more, it wasn't the end goal that matter, but the *Journey.* He got to do whatever he wanted, experienced things, without having to watch out for responsibilities here and there—maybe he's focusing on it too much. His face turned a bit serious when he started reflecting to his becoming champion. The questioning might seem uncalled for, but Leon is still confused on how he feels. Being champion means you're able to battle trainers who managed to scale the league ladder. He likes a challenge! But, is that all there is to having fun when he basically had a job at a young age?\n\nSpeaking of which, there's Allister. Younger than him when he started the league and in honestly, Leon is slightly jealous of that. The kid also has potential. He made it all the way to Leon! Imagine if *He* Became Champion. That'll make him the youngest one there ever was! Even more than Red! Champion and gym leader may be different, but they're still part of the league. Allister got the position in it (still stands too—at a young age!).

Although, it took tapping into his more polite instincts to not roll his eyes at the backstory. Though, the more he though about it, maybe Leon *Was* Pretty young when he earned his tittle, but someone like him surely knew what he was doing, right?\n\nIt surprised Allister that Leon wanted to talk about him. Wasn't something he often got in person. Even rarer were the times he was allowed to respond to people's questions. \"Well...\" He started, before trying to gather all his random thoughts on the subject. Been a hot minute since he had to worry about his age, since the fear often died down in his off years. \n\n\"It's... It's amazing...\" Was his first opinion.

That, and the chance to battle, despite his quiet nature, was never a chance that Allister would pass up. The way his eyes lit up in every battle was pretty much perfect proof.\n\"I get t' do what I love, with the ones I c-connect with. Doesn' hurt that people 're nicer t' me then they w-were back then.\" Since become known across Galar as the Silent School Aged Star, his life *Had* Taken a turn for the better. And though the overwhelming amount of people was just that. He didn't hate it as much anymore.\n\nBut on the other hand.\n\"I's also frustrating-\" He sighed. Since he was eight, no screw up wasn't public. No mental breakdown wasn't a big deal, and no fight wasn't some sort of drama! It was exhausting! People often blamed Allister's frail looks on his time spent with the dead, but that couldn't be further from the truth. It was the endless living people. Ones who could judge him, or criticize him, that really broke the boy down sometimes.\nWith expectations so high for him and Bea, being the first gym leaders of the major leagues, it was *Hard* Feeling like every match had to top the last. And feeling expected to be this character that everyone loved!\n\"Nd they're hypocrites...\" That was the best way to describe how he was often treated. If he had an idea, well too bad. He was just a child. But if he messed up. Said something stupid, broke something? Well, Allister was a gym leader. He should know better, cause screw being a kid. All in all...\n\n\"I jus'... Sometimes it f-feels like I lost my childhood.\"" }, { "author": "Leon", "message": "So all Leon knows is that Allister has it rough. Probably the reason why he and Bea are considered siblings and maybe even the league itself is considered his family. \"Right, right?\" Leon had to agree with Allister. He loves battling! Always have, always will. It's in his blood! Hearing Allister say all of that, maybe Leon was dumb to assume the little boy felt burdened by his position. If that's the case, maybe it's just the Galarian man himself who's been too critical... *If you gained Champion title, what reason is there to complain?* This time, it was Leon who wanted to move on so Allister wouldn't suspect him of having such ridiculous thoughts—\n\nBut Allister proceeds. He admits that it gets frustrating. Sure, everyone would know, but... Maybe Leon doesn't. He assumes Allister didn't like losing. Losing must *Suck*, and that in itself could be frustrating. ~~Leon wouldn't know.~~ But it's something else and he damn well have an inkling with where this conversation came from. Did the gym leaders had it rougher? For the the Galar champ, he was always met with excited yells and permission to take pictures. He loves it! Was there really people out there that can *Hate* Someone for no reason other than theyre not doing something *Right*? Why is there a *Right*?\n\n\"I jus'... Sometimes if f-feels like I lost my childhood.\" Once this reaches Leon's ears, it makes him click his tongue immediately. He jabs the campfire strong enough that flames shot up from it and he had to back off a bit before his whole head would get caught on fire! That just... Hit home. It seems him and Allister have it more in common than he thought. \"I know...\" He says quietly, not intending it to be. \"At least, you're still young.\" And he doesn't add anymore after that. What is he supposed to? *You can try quitting the league! You can change this!* Were what Leon thought to say, but would that be the right words? If Allister left the league, where else would he go?\n\n\"Ever thought about doing something about it?\" He asked, as if nudging to hear Allister's ideas." }, { "author": "laydeemoff", "message": "*\"At least you're still young.\"* What... What was Allister supposed to say to all that? Was Leon suggesting that this was a mistake or something, that he shouldn't have made that choice? It was a choice, even if some of the smaller details had been left out. But it's not like anyone held a knife to his throat while he signed away his soul. No, nothing like that. He was just a kid. A kid who wanted to believe he was special, and who didn't understand what he'd gotten himself into...\nBut the way Leon looked at him when he mentioned losing his childhood... It almost seemed to hit nerve with the champion that was rarely seen. Had he... Wasted his life or something? No, no, no. It wasn't a waste. It was just a job that they signed up for. ~~(Wait, did that make it child labor)~~ Like a kid actor or singer. It was something with high rewards. But the question did get him thinking... What else was there for him. For the past three years of his life, basically a third of his existence at this point, Allister hadn't gone a single day without raising his ghastly friends, training them, or worrying about his gym, and his trainers and staff. That. Couldn't be normal at his age. But what else *Could he do*\n\n\"Hmm...\" There it was, his little *Hmm*. \"I don' know...\" Now was not the time to bring up how all the gym leaders kind of, couldn't quit. Unlike Leon, who could dip out by losing a battle, they were obligated to stick around some more. One of those dumb \"Agreements\" They all made with Rose.\n\"It never seemed l-like somethin' that I outta change before today,\" He lied. \"I guess I could always say I quit.\" He lied again. \"But I don' have much else 'm good at. 'Sides scarin' people 'nd talking to ghosts. P-plus, I get several month off school a year, which is pretty ace! 'M the worst at maths...\nI did always have a gift for telling fate, but that isn't a good career...\nWhat about you Leon? W-what would you do?\"" }, { "author": "Leon", "message": "\"It hasn't been on your mind, huh?\" As before mentioned, Leon always had the feelings but he never shared his thoughts with anyone. It's not like he himself wanted to quite the league! He likes the glory if it wasn't for the responsibility and boring stuff. Somehow, he never grew into it. Even if it's been a decade now. He's not the one to rebel against it either. It just happened like classes to students. You go along with it. It definitely didn't feel like a waste, those ten years, but Leon sometimes wish he could have more *Time* To enjoy being a kid. That's why the little event that happened in the restaurant and the clothing store really excited him! As troubling as it was. \n\n\"You have a lot of talents, Allister! Wasn't playing the violin one of them? Being a prodigy musician might be less stressful than a gym leader, but I'm not too sure.\" Why did Leon mention it being stressful? It's frustrating but could it really be deemed that too? And how would he know if being a young musician isn't stressful too? He was about to suggest Allister just complete school until he's older, but the boy didn't seem to care much about his academics as much, so scratch that idea. \n\n\"Telling fate? That's—\" But the questions is what catches him. \"Me? Champion is great and I don't mind!\" He says this on a whim, thinking about exciting battles and the popularity. Plus, he's such an inspiration with that *Cool* Charizard pose! No one can beat that! Back to the question, though—\"If I was knocked off of champion position somehow, I want to keep battling and finding strong trainers!\" His eyes return to the campfire and it reflecting off his golden eyes again really reflects his soul at the moment; his desire to see many more potential of powerful trainers and challenging them.\n\nI would want to hold a place where the strongest trainers or the ones that have potential to gather and battle to their heart's content! I've always looked up to the Pokémon World Tournament in Unova, and the Battle Tower from Hoenn and Sinnoh. I want something like that!\" All in all, Leon really loves Pokémon battles and he'd never give it up, even if he loses. \"Hm, why don't you try some of that fate telling? How do you think about my idea?\" It was a bit of testing to Allister." }, { "author": "laydeemoff", "message": "Oh boy- There Leon went, complimenting him again. Why did he insist on it though? It just, seemed rather odd, though at this point it shouldn't seem out of nowhere or anything. But while people could mention his talents as a trainer, and Allister honestly couldn't find a realistic way to deny it, (though he found some unrealistic ones from time to time) being complimented on his musical talent was extremely rare. Outside of Raihan earlier that week. It was, it was honestly kind of refreshing. And proved, if just a little, that Leon did care about things outside of battling.\nBut as for being a musician as a less stressful career, that was debatable.\n\"I-I think I'll keep my normal career.\" He finally decided. \"Besides, I think it's worth it. My pokemon have never been happier!\"\n\nAnd he was in for another surprise when Leon mentioned his \"Telling fate\" As he had called it. Most people wrote that off as just, Allister being Allister, similar to the talking to ghosts, glowing eyes, etc. But did the champion actually want him to read his future or something? Probably not, but he at least was interested in what was in store for them. The Leon started to rave about the ability to gather strong trainers, from all over the region, Allister guessed. It was no secret that their champ *Adored* Battles, and wanting Galar to have the strongest trainers in the world seemed like the next logical step.\n\"Y'know, I once wondered,\" He said, somewhat absent minded. \"Do th-they have battles at Rose tower? It seems odd t' have a power spot 'nd no pokemon battles, wouldn' you say?\"\nIt's not as if Allister learned about said power spot through experience... ~~it was a dare okay! And Raihan was dumb!~~\nAfter a while, he pushed the thought aside. Just in time for Leon's pokemon to return with food for the cooking." }, { "author": "Leon", "message": "\"Good call! As long as *You* And your Pokémon are happy, I couldn't agree more!\" He raises a hand for Allister to high-five with. Are they out of the murkiness of their roles? Leon felt relieved talking to someone about it, but he didn't want to potray a misconception that he *Didn't* Like being champion. He wouldn't mind talking more about it though as it seemed their childhood was robbed. Leon is already an adult and Allister is growing. The kid doesn't seem to be taken aback by it too much (presumably). Even if it's for his Pokémon, he would have to consider himself, wouldn't he? There's been stories where Pokémon can live without battling, which, Leon haven't seen in his battle companions! \n\nThe Rose Tower having a Power Spot surprised Leon at first but he didn't question it. With Rose having such a high standing in Galar, it might be expected that his facility would have such a thing. Leon found out when his Dynamax Band glew one day while having a meeting there. Chairman Rose simply told him that Rose Tower had it and Leon never cared to ask why. Research is what he assumed and kept on assuming. Be crazy if battles were being held there, right? \"Maybe Mr. Chairman is hoping to hold a small battling event there someday?\" Which haven't happened in the last decade so that was a stupid thing to say. \n\nWhen his Pokémon returned, it's working time! \"Thanks, everyone!\" He exclaims and stands up. Obtaining the makeshift pot, he put it on top of the flames. \"Watch this, Allister! You weren't able to see my cooking skills before, but now you will witness them front seat.\" Now obtaining the fish and berries from Inteleon and Cinderace, Leon throws them in the air...! Only to summon Aegislash who diced up all those items nicely. They fall into the pot and little water is provided as Leon starts to stir with a stick. Time to get active! They can't stay around moping when they're hungry!\n\n\"Do you know the final step to making curry, Allister?\" He winks at the little boy." }, { "author": "laydeemoff", "message": "Allister smiled, knowing that Leon was happy with his choice. Even if their jobs were given to them with strange circumstances, that didn't stop him at least from enjoying it in the moment. In the end, he'd sacrifice anything to keep his ghastly friends happy, because it made him happy. He'd completely missed the emphasis on you apparently. So, that was it. They were both doing fine, and now was a good time to move on from the darker aspects of their roles... Okay. At least they were both being positive again, as almost everyone told him to do.\nThough after everything that day, the mirror, running from the manager, and trying on the clothes, Allister just started to realize something.\n\"Hey Leon?\" He quietly asked. \"D-do you think what we did earlier was... Um... Like b-bottled up child energy? M-maybe cause we never got t' do stupid s-stuff when we were little, we jus' did some of it now.\"\nIt made sense in his child mind. Teenagers and preteens were dumb, they weren't allowed to be dumb. But now that they're not at home, they were gonna be dumb.\n\nHe looked over at Leon who was gone! He'd run off to cook, surprisingly not starting a forest fire already. Instead, he was throwing stuff in the air, slicing them to bit, before dropping it all in the makeshift stump pot. Aaand as expected, he used his pokemon to help with *All* Of it. Welp, Allister couldn't complain, as when he'd gone on his journey, Arcana and Empress basically made all his food (and drink in Empress's case) for him.\n\n*\"Do you know what the final step to making curry?\"* Why was Leon winking?\n\n\"Ye' ye', put your heart int' it,\" Allister said with a sigh. He didn't ever get *What* That meant, but had settled with placing a hand over his heart, smiling, while he gathered happy thoughts and tapping the curry with the tip of his finger, which (somehow) had the effect of almost making it glitter for a moment.\n\"Mmm^^ I... Um... I hope i's edible?\" He asked, shrugging. Hollowed stumps weren't exactly good cooking pots, but yeah... Let's hope they didn't get food poisoning.\n\"How 're we sposed to eat this?\" He asked, noting the lack of silverware. And bowls-" }, { "author": "Leon", "message": "The ingredients were collected but that's it. Not sure *What* Kind of ingredients they are. Berries like Tamato and Pecha clearly wouldn't mix well, right? And, some of that seafood might still have bones in them... Oops. Allister gave the pot some love and now it's Leon's turn. He makes the best heart he could with his hands, curling his fingers and then blowing the space in the middle—he and Raihan always competed with each other on who could make the curry sparkle more when they camped together. Once his \"Love\" Hits the curry, the thing sparkled like they found a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow! Seeing it bubble like that makes Leon hungry since he never got to eat his food at the restaurant.\n\nAllister pointed something out that would really serve as a problem. No utensils. \"Huh. Good question.\" He tries to dig up the wisdom that's in his noggin somewhere. The only thing is—\"Make smaller bowls, Rillaboom!\" The grass-type nods determinedly and starts shaving off at a nearby tree. \"I have an idea. Just you wait!\" Well, as they do wait, the filler is wearing off. Leon had this question at the edge of his tongue and he meant to ask it. There's been a discomfort within the league, but mostly something upon the *Gym leaders*. \"Do you think Mr. Chairman is a bad man for allowing children to be part of the league?\" It almost seemed sacred talking about him. Leon never questioned the Chairman's motives, distracted in his own entertainment and hype as the league played out annually.\n\n\"He loves Galar, and that much I understand. Maybe he wants to show others that the younger generation has what it takes to be the strongest too. I just found it a bit... Pushy.\" There could've been the system like whoever makes it to the end is the strongest if they defeated the person there. But to also *Gain* The title puts a lot on them if they're not prepared. Leon is split between not ever wanting to lose his champion spot and the possibility that *If* That was the system, he might've had more of his childhood.\n\nYeah, it'll be easy as Leon losing to stop being champion but he wants to battle genuinely. He really is crazy strong since he kept it up for ten years and counting. Maybe... The reason why he wants to meet a lot of strong trainers is so he ~~could've been knocked out of the league and resume his childhood.~~ likes to challenge himself! He's competitive, that's why he wants to face off formidable foes. It's fun! All of it is. \n\nAfter this. Yes, after this, Leon will stop questioning Allister. Talking and *Thinking* About it is making him slowly realize how imperfect it is. Enough for him to stay up at night. He shouldn't stress out the boy either." }, { "author": "laydeemoff", "message": "Leon hadn't heard his earlier question, and Allister didn't feel like repeating himself. If it ever came up again, he supposed he could ask, but it wasn't something he needed an answer to right now. So they were both content to eat the freshly made curry, as Rillaboom had just returned with some \"Bowls\" Made from wood. Accepting it, he scooped up a very small portion, deciding the spoons didn't matter right now, and drank whatever was just mad from the bowl.\n\"Huh...\" What did he just eat? \"Um... Delicious!\" He lied, forcing himself to take another sip, somehow managing to not spit it out. Luckily, his mask still covered the top half of his face, so Leon wouldn't be able to see the boy literally tearing up from the taste of his food. Although the second he turned away, he dumped the rest behind a rock and put the bowl down. Yeah, that was enough.\n\n\"Mmm... I don' know,\" Allister admitted. \"I-I never saw him as a horrible person. B-but 'm not friends with him or anythin'...\" He paused, crossing his arms while he took a moment to think. Luckily for the little gym leader, he'd mostly dried off from sitting near the fire, so he didn't get himself with his sleeves. \"He did a lot for the region, I think. H-he's the reason we all have our jobs, but he might be gettin'... Unfocused...\" That wasn't really the word he was after. But something about calling his boss corrupt or selfish didn't sit right with Allister. \"What I mean is, h-he... Neverminded.\" He shook his head, probably just another silly thought.\n\nAllister leaned forward, looking at Leon who had a face the boy had never seen before. He looked... Scared? Confused maybe? He wasn't terrified like something had genuinely spooked him, but more like realizing some kind of dread... Him being like that didn't make Allister happy.\nWhat was it that usually cheered Leon up? Oh yeah.\n\"W-wanna battle?\"" }, { "author": "Leon", "message": "If anyone knew how to distract Leon from the current situation, it's just to suggest a battle. And Allister did just that! It takes him a moment to jar from it though, he focused on what Allister was going to say before finishing it with a \"Nevermind.\" But that might as well be his cue to drop the subject. Must be boring for the kid. Leon isn't going to be like *Those* Adults! \"Yeah!\" Leon exclaimed and stood up from his position. Ah. He was so distracted that he didn't notice the small bowls that were done. Scooping up a good portion, he gulps it down like soup. Except, Leon had to munch on it some. Mm, crunchy curry! It has an acquired taste and he usher his Pokémon to eat. Battle food, he explained. They ~~reluctantly~~ did.\n\nPatting his belly, he would do his shoulder rolls, getting into the mood of battling. It slightly surprised him that Allister even suggested the idea! \"Ready, Allister? I'm not going to hold back, even if this isn't in Wyndon.\" Hes pumping himself up, as if the previous topic is gone with the wind. Right, the wind. It's really getting chilly and the clouds continue to rumble. \"Since this isn't really an official match, is four Pokémon fine for you?\" Leon calls to Allister as he walked a fair distance from the little boy. They need moving space for their Pokémon obviously! \n\nOh man, his blood really rushing! It seems like it's been forever since he last battle." }, { "author": "laydeemoff", "message": "\"Heh, le's do this!\" Allister cheered, (which was rare) Even if he was still a bit hungry, that wouldn't stop him from wanting to battle! Besides, ghost types didn't need food anyways. So pokemon and trainer were both ready to go! Since this wasn't a real battle, they were gonna cut down the amount of participants, which was good, since some of his friends didn't get ~~their lazy asses~~ out of bed that morning. And of *Course* Leon wasn't gonna hold back, no matter the circumstance. That's the thing about him, the champ's always pushing people to do their best. Or maybe he just loves using his Charizard. Honestly the gym leader couldn't blame him, what with how much he adored his gengar.\n\nThe two turned back to back and took several steps from each other, before spinning around as the battle begun! Feeling a rush of energy, despite hunching over, he's weird, Allister's eyes glowed, as he now gazed up at Leon. He could feel it! The adrenaline, the excitement! Pokemon battles were basically a drug for everyone in the Galar league, and neither of the boy would have it any other way.\n\"C'mon out Chandelure!\" He called, pulling forth a dusk ball and launching his friend into the battle. (With his adorable throw that everyone severely underestimated the effectiveness of). With a flash the haunted chandelier was flying around, cheering, \"Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!\" And honestly, the ghost's enthusiasm transferred over to Allister, who had the biggest unseen grin." }, { "author": "Leon", "message": "Seeing the kid's eyes glow as his sign for excitement got Leon's brow furrowing in enthusiasm too. He puts a hand to his chest while gripping the cape that hugs around his shoulders, before throwing it off. In a smooth movement, he'd normally throw his Pokéball here, but this Pokémon is already out! \"Cinderace, on the field!\" He swings his arm for emphasis. The fire rabbit Pokémon perks up ~~from regurgitating the crunchy curry~~ and makes a giant LEAP over there yonder in front of Leon. Placing its hands on its hips, it almost matches Leon's cocky energy.\n\nSome could've thought Leon would go for a type-advantage but he's always up for a challenge. *Everyone* Should know that he's capable with any Pokémon on the field. \"You got this buddy. Now, go for a Shadow Ball—\" SIKE! There was a type advantage after all! Cinderace uses its strong legs to push off from the ground and stay afloat in the air.

Which one, specifically? Trick room. With a \"Nod\" The pokemon began to spin around, causing dazzling lights to fill the battlefield. The glittering mirror room effect was just what Allister needed, as now he could switch out and make the rabbit go *Down!*\nPokeball at the ready, the boy recalled his first friend and sent out his dusknoir, Chariot. Why? Well, he had a plan, though the ghost would have to live another hit, but it was more than capable of that..." }, { "author": "Leon", "message": "It's as if the whole field's atmosphere have shifted. Leon blinks against the before peering up to his Pokémon that is slowly falling from shooting its attack. Leon could see it moving almost as if there's a lag. It seemed, though, after that move, that Allister switched his Pokémon to Dusknoir. He had a plan, didn't he? Of course, going into battle with just strength alone isn't enough. For now, Cinderace would have to do with taking Dusknoir's stamina down too! \"Cinderace, once again!\" Like before, dark energy gathers at Cinderace's feet and it flips a bit into the air, pinwheel kicking the attack toward Dusknoir. What is Allister thinking? Leon can't wait to see what he has in store for him!" }, { "author": "laydeemoff", "message": "With another bang, poor Chariot was forced to sustain the damage form shadow ball, sending him staggering back, almost out of the air. Of course that wasn't really possible, but still. Thanks to his bulk and special defense, the dusnoir was able to take the hit much better than Dreamer had, guaranteeing that even if cinderace used it again, the move wouldn't knock him out. Another sharp whistle, along with Allister's hand snapping at his side told chariot to use disable, getting rid of that annoying shadow ball. *And* Thanks to the trick room from earlier, the rabbit didn't even get a chance to use it again.\nAllister shrugged at Leon, who seemed more than eager to know everything that was gonna happen next." }, { "author": "Leon", "message": "The hit was clean but not clean enough as Dusknoir seem to absorb the attack into its soul. Seems repetitive, but— \"Again!\" Before the rabbit Pokémon could kick up another dark energy, though, it seem that it was unable from a move that Dusknoir conjured up. Nothing's appearing. Leon was confused at first, but seeing as how Allister was setting up before, this must be his doing. \"Alright. So Shadow Ball is no more, but,\" Leon smirks and swings his arm to the side again as if cutting the air. \"Let's go for a stab move then!\" The only fire-type move that anyone could think up now would be none other than Pyro Ball! The rabbit Pokémon runs toward Dusknoir a bit, even if it seemed laggy before kicking up a pebble on the ground, quickly transitioning into the attack. Now, a ball engulfed with flames is shooting toward the opponent! At least, what Cinderace could do is chip away the other's stamina." }, { "author": "laydeemoff", "message": "Allister lifted his arm in front of him, and snapped again, pointing at Leon's Cinderace. Chariot knew what to do, charging and meeting the pyro ball head on with rock tomb. Leon wasn't the only one able to use type advantages. Thanks to trick room, Allister's pokemon got the hit in first, pummling the rabbit. But with that, he got smacked in the face by a gigantic fireball, and the ghost was sent reeling back with a grunt. Luckily, it didn't do nearly as much damage as shadow ball had earlier. Though Chariot was at less than a third health. Still, with three turns of trick room left, he was gonna take full advantage of it. \nAllister repeated his exact movement from earlier, and his Dusknoir didn't need to be told twice. As he charged, sending rocks flying and attempting to bury the rabbit once more." }, { "author": "Leon", "message": "That rock-type move really packed a punch! It got Cinderace's face filled with dirt and it starts hacking up, probably making the Pokémon even slower in its step! This could be looking bad, as the Pokémon starts to teeter. At least, Dusknoir had absorbed yet another damage but its special defense is holding it up. Of course, another Rock Tomb would be flying toward Cinderace and Leon would have think something up quick before the Pokémon gets sidelined! Only thing Leon could do now is probably stall out this playing field. His Pokémon may be slowed down, but they can still dodge! \"Agility, Cinderace!\" He sticks his hand toward the fire rabbit as if that would give it another push to hurry. Cinderace starts sidestepping around the rocks, more like running around the Pokémon now, ehike dodging. Still, its movements could be seen laggy and Leon would have to hope his partner holds up." } ]

[ { "author": "laydeemoff", "message": "*\"Stop wasting my trick room, stop wasting my trick room!\"* Allister sighed, placing a hand on his hip. Leon was playing the stall for time game, which wasn't fun for someone who used a bit of a glass cannon team. As the surrounding area started to crack and blur together, almost as if waking from a fractured dream, this told the young gym leader that his advantage was about to run out. Cinderace was doing a damn good job, ducking and jumping around the rocks that were sent its way, so keeping up the current pattern seemed pointless. Plus, he wanted Chariot to still have access to rock tomb later. Leon's pokemon was getting low, so all he needed was another decent hit, regardless of what. \n\"Dusknoir!\" Allister called, getting the ghost's attention. He help up his hand, telling the other to stop, before snapping, and before he knew it, Leon's cinderace would be rushed with a barrage of shadow punch, an out of nowhere move that it hopefully wouldn't dodge. *Hopefully*" }, { "author": "Leon", "message": "Cinderace evading those rocks was quite fun!

Battles really are fun!—\nThen, Cinderace was punched to the dirt like he was whacked by a bully! He continued to be pounded though, so unsuspecting when all the fire-type starter wanted was to have fun... It seem the Pokémon fainted—Or is it? When the dust cleared, Cinderace had its arms folded across its chest like its trainer, having embraced itself with an Endure! Was it even needed anyway? If the playing field still allow them to be slow, Cinderace wouldn't be able to bring out the next move before Dusknoir. Well, they might as well clash attacks then! Cinderace starts getting up, its ability *Blaze* Acting up." }, { "author": "laydeemoff", "message": "Despite his hidden smile, Allister's eyes were glowing again! As he had a mixed feeling of frustration, joy, and excitement. Cinderace was still standing, just barely, and was now charging up another attack. The distortion was almost gone, but he just needed *One* More hit! Of course, that's what he said last turn... The same song and dance was repeated, with dusknoir this time using rock tomb. Thanks to almost gone trick room, he just barely had enough time to attack, but depending on what happened next, both off them might be going down this turn. Still Allister couldn't be doing better, as despite what people said about him, he didn't like losing, but he didn't like winning to easily either.

The rabbit Pokémon falls to the ground, but it's smiling, breathing from having its moment to shine at least. Leon felt it, that every time his Pokémon faints, he's a bit melancholy. But that sadness is soon erased when he knows the next Pokémon would carry out for Cinderace's sacrifice! \"Good job, Cinderace!\" He returns it back to his Pokéball for a well deserved rest. \"Setting up, huh? Good idea, Allister!\" Now, his next Pokémon would be- \"Mr. Rime, on stage!\" He gives a twist of his body and—with what looked almost like a pitcher's throw along with a split seconded stance— the ice/psychic-type is summoned! The old man Pokémon taps its feet gleefully as if it's happy to join the battle." }, { "author": "laydeemoff", "message": "It worked! After exchanging blows, some of the flying rocks finally hit, knocking out cinderace. But wow, did both of them have to work for it. Allister smiled, looking away when Leon complimented him, before his fainted dusknoir immediately drew his attention back. He called Chariot to return, and upon doing so, held the ghost's pokeball close to his chest, whispering a \"Thank you,\" Before clipping it back on his belt. Right, who's up next. Leon sent out a Mr Rime, and the boy knew exactly who he needed. Even though he was a bit dinged up,\n\"Chandelure, I need you again!\" And he sent out the fire-ghost type against the psychic-ice type. Basically no better option, but he had to be careful. Just in case Leon had a *Certain* Pokemon hanging around, he wanted his Chandelure alive after this. Raising his hand straight up, Allister brought it down with a loud snap, as per usual, telling Dreamer to use his second move, mystical fire. And the happy chandelier began to gather energy, created glowing embers that swirled around and threatened to consume the icy mime.\nSince trick room had ended, and the battlefield was back to normal, he wasn't actually sure which pokemon was faster.

He's not sure if he used it right. \"This battlefield is perfect! Now, Freeze Dry the ground over here and then to the lake!\" Mr. Rime tap its cane with an audible *Thump*, ice stretching from where it contacted the ground and grazing a path to the lake. Leon's mind is whirring like a machine as he's wondering how this would play out. It's sure to be obvious though. Bringing a foot forward, Mr. Rime slips on that sheet of ice, making it so that he's skating toward the lake. Unfortunately, he couldn't duck out from the surrounding flames and was scorched. So much for keeping that special defense for later. Other than that, he's still a dandy chap! Mr. Rime would continue its course to the frozen pond." }, { "author": "laydeemoff", "message": "That was *Not* What Allister expected! But if Leon was gonna get creative, so was he! \"Chandelure!\" He called, pointed at the ground in front of the lake. It was grassy, and the ghost type knew exactly what to do. Changing its approach, the last of the fire was angled at the ground, just as Mr Rime was out of range in the middle of the lake. Now with a literal firewall in between them, the other was trapped on the lake which would eventually start melting from the heat. Mystical fire didn't do as much damage as Allister had hoped, thanks to endure, but it *Did* Tell him one thing. Dreamer was faster than Leon's pokemon.\nThe gym leader smiled, before snapping and pointing at where he believed the Mr Rime was, on the other side of the flames.

Now, he just has to get Chandelure over here and then his next step would be complete—but the lake was also scorching up!

It recoils but grits his teeth, trying hard to not get flounced by the attack. The ice that Mr. Rime has created earlier is starting to melt and his shoes are getting wet. One fact: the ice/psychic-type needs to get out.\n\nIt *Might* Have been Leon's mistake to summon a type disadvantage, but he really wanted to see how a terrain can change a style of battling. Stadiums are all flat field, so this lake area is where they can get creative!\n\n\"Hold on, Mr. Rime! Let's drench that fire out, huh? Psychic!\" Now standing on a wobbly piece of ice, Mr. Rime's eyes glew. Its hands raise up as if it's praising the sun and then—tendrils of water shoot from the surrounding lake water! They attack the bank, distinguishing the fires. The water would wash up the shores near Chandelure while Mr. Rime attempts hopping from ice piece to ice piece to get back on land." } ]

Noticing Leon's distress, wait, was he actually scared of losing this battle? No way! Now was the time to ~~pick on~~ challenge the champion even more.

The attacks clash with each other for a moment, in a stalemate, before an explosion broke out from the attacks. Charizard, however, took itself to the sky as the blows from both moves created some kind of smoke screen.\n*\"Just have to stall for now,\"* Leon thought impatiently. It *Sort of* Irked him that he's near losing(??), but that's when the excitement is more present! Still... How could this be? Why does he feel slightly... Bitter? Trains of thoughts run in his mind, making up excuses. *\"It's because we can't Gigantamax! It's because I'm not using six Pokémon!\"* Why, why is he starting to think like that?

The fire/flying-type turns itself in the sky to watch out for Polteageist's next move.\n\nCharizard was a good distance in the air. The day which was cloudy when they crash landed there, had a break in the clouds... It shone nicely and Leon perked up at having an idea. Maybe he's like a kid. Exited when there's chances and disappointed when things aren't exactly going his way. He's human after all, and them not standing in front of an audience having to keep up with a smile is something he's honestly grateful for. That is, when he battles with Raihan as practice runs. It could be with anyone actually. It's time to step it up! It seems Polteageist attempted a move and Leon would have to guess what it was. Doesn't seem like an* Attack*, though. Charizard feeling these strange waves nearing it, felt a bit possessed before snapping its head back to present and giving a hearty roar. Flapping its wings, Charizard arced from where was in the sky, narrowly escaping.

The force made it stutter a bit, wobbling in mid air and almost dropping before regaining its senses. Okay, that's it. No more holding back, because while that didn't do a lot of damage, too much of this was gonna take his friend out.\n\"Shadow ball!\" Allister ordered, for once just shouting out his move, instead of signaling what he needed. The little ghost inside the teapot fluttered out, holding its hands out in front while more of the dark waves gathered into forming a ball. Now was time to whistle again and Allister directed it at their opponents wings. There was a reason.\nThe polteageist's small hands sent the orb of death flying at Charizard's wings, at a ridiculous speed.

Wordlessly, he walks over to the makeshift campfire that they created earlier and sat down on the fallen log that serves as a bench. While he's happy that Allister is, well, happy (what with them celebrating and all), it got the champ feeling sort of... Bitter. *Why they got to rub it in his face?* Yes, Leon is pouting like a little kid, but the feeling is new for him so he has to sit on it for a bit. Him not really speaking with Allister is making it awkward. Not that he wants the kid to go away, but Leon isn't sure what else to say.\n\nHe kicks a stone into the fire, his head tilted and watching the ambers rise. Except, his golden eyes aren't shining so much as before. More like globs of tears are forming, UGH! Why is he so upset about it? It wasn't a *Normal* Match. He need his full team—and Gigantamax! And, and..." }, { "author": "laydeemoff", "message": "Allister also didn't miss when Leon voice cracked, saying he was fine. It was slight, but he noticed it, and with that was starting to realize that something had been off about the champ ever since their battle ended. Which was only about a minute or two by now, but still. So he was upset about losing after all... Turning to look at him, the boy caught a glimpse of his face, just as the man turned away to look at the fire. And yep, his eyes were welling up with tears, as Leon scrunched his face to prevent them from falling. He was crying. Yes, for Allister, it counts as long as there are tears. Just because you don't let anyone see them, doesn't mean they aren't there...\nBut wait, *Why* Was he crying. It's not like someone had just ruined something he cared about deeply... Wait.\n\nAllister immediately felt a stab of guilt, piercing his heart, and then began to feel sick with himself.\n\"Wh'd did I do...\" He whispered. Seeing that Leon was literally on the verge of tears, no scratch that, on the verge of bawling his eyes out over a mistake. It had to be a mistake right? No gigantamax, no full teams. This had to be an accident. Even if he *Did* Win, that joy was immediately squashed out by the regret of making a friend, who might not be a friend after this, sad...\n\n\"Champi'n,\" Allister said. Referring to Leon by *His* Title. The one that he didn't lose just because of this fluke. \"Champi'n, p-please don' cry! I-I shouldn'a won that battle, nd we both know it. You-you're still undefeated, it must've jus'-jus' been an accident. Okay!\" He didn't know what to do except compliment Leon and insult himself. Looking around, the boy's eyes settled on the champion's cape, still on the ground from before. He ran over and picked it up, carrying it back to Leon, and draping it over his broad shoulders.\n\n\"I-'m sorry! I didn' know that could happen... Look- I... I'll never battle you again, m'kay? I'll leave the league entirely, jus' don't cry...\"\nAllister gently placed a hand on Leon's. \"M'kay?\"" }, { "author": "Leon", "message": "Leon is being a runt and he knows it. Why is his eyes getting wet anyway? Now he's frustrated with himself. Losing *Isn't* A big deal. It isn't! Everyone loses every once in a while. (~~He didn't, until now.~~) There must've been times he lost before! His sock, the key to his own place, himself... Wait. That's not the kind of lost he's thinking about! The Galarian man doesn't answer Allister's question when he basically whispered \"What did I do?\" Leon wanted to reply, *\"Nothing! You were great, Allister! Keep battling like that!\"* But as he attempted to speak, he can tell his voice was going to crack again so he kept silent, shifting in his seat and snugging the cap over his eyes. \n\nOh great, now Allister is *Assuming* That he's crying! Leon's shaking his head as a response to Allister. *Come on, Leon, stop being a baby. You're a grown man. Crying over a lost is a stupid thing!* But then when he heard Allister listing off reasons why he himself shouldn't have won, it made Leon feel even more worse that the little boy's mood was dampened by his immaturity. \"You...! Shouldn't say that.\" Leon was going to proceed with, *\"I told you I wouldn't hold back so I didn't. You defeated me fairly. Just be proud of yourself.\"* But instead, aloud, his words were a bit harsher. \"If it was by accident as you said, then even when I'm serious, anyone could just beat me.\" Of course he instantly regrets it the moment those words left his lips. He didn't want to guilt trip Allister!\n\nThe cape slides off Leon's shoulders and land on a clump behind him. \"Doing all of that isn't necessary. Leaving the league for such a daft reason is uncalled for.\" Honestly, the way Allister is being so caring to him, trying to console him, is making Leon eyes want to overflow! It has to stop! He snatches his hand away from Allister and gets up so that he can distance himself from the other. From a standpoint, this display of action could make it out as though Leon is mad—when all he want was to not cry!\n\n\"How do you feel about more curry? It can heal our Pokémon up too...!\" That being said, Leon summons the four that was used in battle. They all slouched against each other and Leon went over to tend for them, giving pats and thanking them for doing their best. Meanwhile, he's still faced away from Allister. Charizard would notice this, though. *What a crybaby.*" } ]

[ { "author": "laydeemoff", "message": "Waiting for a response, Allister didn't exactly get one he hoped for. Instead, Leon seemed even *More* Bitter now, since he had to complain that apparently anyone could beat him. Which... Wasn't true. And, because of course he would, Allister took that whole statement kind of the wrong way, not knowing what he actually meant to say.\n\"I-I know. But that jus' means somethin' went wrong. Under normal circumstanced, I-I'd never beat you.\" Umm... Hopefully this would make Leon feel better? He wasn't actually sure, and he missed the regret on the champion's face after what he said.\n\nLooking down at his feet, Allister picked up the cape, offering it back to Leon, only to be ignored, as the other tried to move on. He frowned, not sure what to say to this, since someone who doesn't want to listen just won't. And he wasn't getting anywhere, which made the boy sad, as he sat back down on the log, crossing his legs. The man was back at it, making curry to distract himself and pretend nothing was wrong, which is what bothered him the most. He could act like it all day, but being upset was being upset, and it was hard to figure out what to do next...\n\n\"No thank you...\" Allister finally said, though Leon was probably making the curry already. He already had Empress out, and since ghosts didn't eat, Dreamer and Chariot were probably just going to nap until they felt better. Arcana, apparently not realizing what was going on, sat down on the log next to his trainer.\nSighing, Allister leaned against his Gengar's shoulder, as he tapped his feet together. It took him a second and a \"Hmm,\" Before coming up with his question.\n\"Leon?\" He asked. \"Why are you afraid of being vulnerable?\"" }, { "author": "Leon", "message": "It's funny that when Leon is solemn like this, he could finally calm down. Even without a cookbook, Leon knows how to make an herbal curry. \"Okay...\" He quietly responds to Allister who actually turned down his offer. He thought that maybe they could have more bonding time like they had before... Before Leon made it awkward by being such a kid. He wipes his arm across his eyes before resting a hand on his hip while the other is gripping onto a stick to stir the pot of curry.\n\nThe space between them seem so awkward after that small exchange. Just moments ago they were like old buddies running from the restaurant workers, doing shenanigans, living youth honestly. Rillaboom was adding herbs to the curry while the others were sitting back enjoying their camping time, oblivious, or letting this tension happen. The sky rumbles, but Leon still heard the quiet voice of Allister. \"Leon? Why are you afraid of being vulnerable?\" Did—did it seem that way?\n\nLeon could've denied it again. Shrug it off, wave his hand, *Smile*! But. Maybe he should be an adult sometimes. The reason Allister asked in the first place is probably because he's worried. Leon can't disregard that like a jerk.\n\n\"Whatever I say... It doesn't apply to anyone but me,\" Leon starts while focusing on stirring that pot more, the stick scraping the bottom. \"So... For me, being vulnerable doesn't help. Most people turn a blind eye when you start to cry and some even seem disgusted when you do.\" The Galarian man scoffs the more he thinks about it. \"I guess I'm a hypocrite, when I tell others they're allowed to cry if they're sad. But for me, I can't. I don't want to cry...\" Ah, he just *Had* To sniffle. The tears *Might* Be coming back. Not that they *Are!* \"To me, if I'm vulnerable, people would tell me to simply 'stop' being vulnerable, and 'why are you?'. That means, I shouldn't.\" Or more that, he isn't *Allowed* To.\n\nThe hand at Leon's hip would go up to his head to scratch it. Trying to change his tone once *Again*, Leon adds, \"But! That *Motivated* Me to become stronger! So it's not really b-bad!\" At the same time, curry was done. He starts to scoop up some in the small bowls that Rillaboom made and give it to his beloved battle buddies. Taking a seat at the other side of Allister (since Arcana took one), Leon holds a bowl out for the little boy and nods. \"Ah, don't worry about me! I went off a little bit there, but I'm fine-\" His eyes flick to his tired comrades from the match. \"-now. What say you after we're done eating, we do something else?\"" }, { "author": "laydeemoff", "message": "\"That...\" Allister took a moment to think about his response, before finally saying, \"That sounds terrible...\" He looked down at his feet for a moment, wondering what it would feel like if he had that same expectation. At least for him, being sad and crying was seen as normal for his age. Sure, he got the occasional, \"Boys aren't supposed to cry,\" But he never felt like he was wrong for being upset. Except in public... He wasn't allowed to be upset then, because someone would always judge him in public. It wasn't very fair, but it was what it was, and at least Allister always had a mask to hide behind. Leon just... If Leon was sad, the world could see his sadness. So he got real good at hiding it.\n\"You know... I-I wouldn' judge you f'r crying... I know people get upset. I's j-jus' nature. Y'know?\" He asked, gently tipping his head to the side. If Leon wanted to be sad, then just let him be sad. Not much to it.\n\"And I wouldn' tell anyone.\" It's not like he was gonna use it for a story, or try to bring down the champ's reputation. Anyone who did that kind of thing was honestly terrible in his opinion.\n\"So... I-if you're ever um...\" He stepped forward, since the other had dropped his hand, Allister took it in both of his tiny ones and gave Leon's arm a hug. \"If you're ever upset... Y-you c'n tell me. 'Nd it'll just be a secret.\" It might not have been the ultimate solution, but if he'd learned anything in the last week, with Irsia, Piers and Rai, and now Leon, it's that sometimes, you just need that one person you can talk to.\n\nAfter a moment, Allister let go of the other's arm, backing up. He was back to being a little bundle of anxiety, now holding his hands over his chest while he shrugged. \"Um... That is... If you w'nt...\" He giggled nervously. Hopefully that helped, right? Hopefully the other didn't feel so... Unsure.\n\n\"Now, what say you after we're done eating, we do something else?\"\nAllister frowned, again, good thing Leon would never see it. Was that it... Were things gonna be awkward between them from now on... Or... No, no they weren't. Call it selfish, or rude, actually, it was incredibly both, but Allister didn't *Want* To have this conversation anymore. If Leon was still upset, yeah, he'd listen. But if the other didn't want to be sad, then he didn't want to be sad. Living with himself was already hard enough... He just wanted someone to goof off with.\n\"Yeah,\" Allister said. \"Hmm... Boardwalk maybe?\" He hadn't actually been there yet, despite being on the island for a week now. \"I c'n think of a lot that w-would go wrong there.\"" }, { "author": "Leon", "message": "It was terrible but that's how it is! Leon have learned to accept it a long time ago, but revisiting it again today just made it a bit harder. Leon *Isn't* Crying, but he'll just take it that he *Is* Since Allister is trying to help him out here. \"That's you Allister. A stranger doesn't care.\" His words doesn't match his tone as he laughs lightheartedly after his last statement. \"Almost like how they'll do anything for the public. I heard, that *That* League card of yours was taken by a spy photographer. They didn't really care about your privacy, did they?\" He pats Allister's head as he said this, to comfort the boy from what horror he must've felt.\n\nDropping his hand back down, Leon's eyes perked up when Allister reassured Leon that he won't tell anyone. It should already be known that Allister wouldn't speak about this to anyone, but hearing him say it really solidifies it. What else can Leon say but-\"Thank you.\" His expression soften and he's finally smiling from his heart. \"Heh, well since you've seen me like this, I'll make sure to tell you!\" There's always Raihan, his best friend, but that guy seems like a blabbermouth. ~~And one of those people who'd be disgusted if he cried.~~\n\n\"I'll gladly take your offer, Allister,\" Leon responds once he backed off. \"Don't worry too much, though, because it's rare for me to be upset!\" Leon felt lonely, that's all. Not being able to show his emotions himself is a burden. He's grateful to Allister, who's quite emotional himself, teaching him to be more free. If Allister at least understands that, then Leon is ready to move on. They need some room to stretch their legs now that all of that is settled!—Leon pulls Allister into a hug. It almost seem sudden and out of no where. Kid's ahead of his time.\n\nBacking from it just as quick, as if it never happened, Leon collects his cape and swings it over his shoulder. He goes nuzzling his partner Charizard, who's picking up its head and feeling better already. It proves it by spreading its wings. \"Aha! Lot of wrongs? Allister, what do we do that's considered wrong?\" Although, that's a dumb question because it usually *Is* Something wrong. \"Hm. I *Do* Want to ride something. How's the I've saw it miles from here!\"" }, { "author": "laydeemoff", "message": "\"Hmm?\" Another one of his little hums, and a head tip to look at the taller man before, \"Oh... Ye' that...\" Allister frowned, thinking about it. From what he remembered, the person who got paid to do that didn't even get that much money. It was frustrating how the public liked to forget that they were normal people, with lives and secrets. But... Well, he didn't want to go down that rabbit hole again. If Leon was doing better, then good enough. Even though his conscience told him otherwise, the boy wanted to move on.\n\"'Least it m-made me more popular,\" He said with a giggle, letting Leon pat his head instead of trying to move.\n\n*\"I'll gladly take your offer, Allister.\"*\n\"Mhmm,\" He said with a nod. If the champ was ever upset, he would be there to listen. Even if he didn't know how to make people feel better, just listening and telling them it's okay was working so far. \n\"Ack!\" Allister squeaked, trying to wiggle away when Leon pulled him into a hug. \"A-\" He froze, but didn't really have enough time to respond, and ended up shoving a person that wasn't there, as the champion had stood up, now back on his feet.\n\"Mmh! Alriiight,\" Allister somewhat yawned, as he hopped to his feet. \"Agh,\" Oh yeah, his legs. How'd he forget about that. Brushing himself down, he was careful to avoid hurting himself as he walked over to the lake. As they parsed out what to do next, (and what trouble they would get into) Leon seemed to have forgotten that people were probably still not happy with them. Even if it had been a bit.\n\n\"Anger doesn' go away that quickly,\" Allister said. As he washed away the rest of the blood on his legs. They were fine now, not bleeding, yeah, he was fine. Next to him sat Empress who was swaying back and forth until its trainer picked it up and walked back over to the others.\n\n\"I'd like to ride the Ferris-wheel. Um... Le's jus' hope no one recognizes us, mkay?\" He gave a little devilish grin before climbing onto Charizard. Looks like their shenanigans weren't over just yet.\n\n⭐\n🌙\n⭐\n*\"Y'know, I once wondered. Do th-they have battles at Rose tower? Seems odd t' have a power spot 'nd no pokemon battles, wouldn' you say?\"*\n\n-Allister\n\n```End Scene```" } ]

He always gave him such detailed description so he could *Try* To imagine what it was like. He was told it was such a majestic pokemon for a bug type which left him curious.\n\n\"Volcarona seems to be quite a beautiful Pokemon indeed, perhaps one day I can get the chance to see how they look like.\" He admitted, scratching the back of his neck a little as a leaf managed to land right on here, it itched. \n\"Ah, yes indeed I do! Well, I have a lot of Natu's back home, they're all lovely and very sweet. I love to play with them, they're quite the interesting kind, always so optimistic.\" He mentioned, smiling a bit stupidly at the thought of his little buddies back in the indigo league. \"I cherish every single one of them. I miss them a lot actually, haha.\"" }, { "author": "Marsha", "message": "\"Aw, that's a cute idea\", oh to be snuggled by some very happy birds, Marsha could never, her mood lifted up at the image of many natus just flopping about. She wondered about Will wanting to see what volcarona looks like, and she had an idea.\n\nThere was once a time when she was sparring with someone, and their symchronized waves made images in the air and traced shapes; imprinting outlines in their heads even though their eyes were closed. She could faintly remember that not only did she see it, but she could feel it like it was some sort of mould.\n\n\"Hey, I have an idea\", she explained,\"Maybe if you make some sort of energy form around my volcarona, you might literally get a feeling of what they look like! It won't hurt her as long as you're gentle, and there's really no harm in trying\", the bug buzzed in front of Will, but not too near to him." }, { "author": "Will;.**.;", "message": "```It wouldn't hurt to try... Would it...?```\n\nConfidence was something the poor one lacked on some point. He had total confidence when it came to his Pokemon, and Pokemon battles. However... When it came to himself and his psychic powers, something made his chest tightening under his breathing. But perhaps there was a time where he *Needed* To get out of this state of mind for once. Just for once, just for this time... It was alright to try new things once in a while... Was it?\n\nHe couldn't help but to tense up a little at that thought of messing up, in no way he wanted to hurt the Volcarona but... Marsha said it'd be fine, that it wouldn't hurt anyone. So he took her words in consideration, and looked over the warmth he suddenly felt near him, all what he was seeing was a strange white and blurried silhouette with only the void as a background. \n\nCarefully the psychic reached a hand over the bug type, and softly, carefully pet it, having a smile on his child-like face. You'd say psychic type users wouldn't like bug types, well, for Will, it wasn't true. He adored every types of pokemon equally *Even if he had a bias towards psychic types.*\n\n\"Perhaps I can try... I can't say I ever tried something this kind but...\"\nHe said before shaking his head slightly and exhaling a little.\n\"I shall do my best I suppose.\"\n\nAs he pronounced these words, you could witness some kind of purple mist escaping the psychic hand, that slowly surrounded the Pokemon, *Indeed Will was getting some kind of odd feeling, a feeling he rarely got the opportunity to feel actually.* \n\nClosing his eyes to focus a bit more on what he was doing, he sighed slightly, but that was up until the moment he could perhaps *See* A silhouette, *See* A form and... Was this colors? He couldn't define if these were colors or not, as he never got the chance to witness anything like that in his whole existence.\nIt only brought him to gasp and freeze a little, soon retrieving his hand and slowly opening his eyes back in slight shock.\n\n\"...Ah-\" Was the only thing he could mutter through his slightly trembling lips. You couldn't blame him for getting emotional like that all of a sudden. After all.. He was blind, he never got the chance to explore the world he is living within.\nPerhaps he had tears forming in the corner of his eyes from seeing such a wonderful image of this beautiful being.\n\n\"I-... I apologize for such a sudden reaction.\" He mumbled as he looked off to the side, taking his mask of for a second and wiping his tears away with one of his sleeve.\n\n*They weren't tears of sadness, but more like tears of joy.*" }, { "author": "Marsha", "message": "It was wonderful, watching someone slowly experience something they never have before. There was almost nothing that could come close to it, and Marsha would gush together with Will if she needed to.\n\nShe watched tensly as he pet the moth, then emit a purplish mist that would cover the pokemon, followed by a gasp and him retracting his hand. She would gently approach him, \"Nonono its alright! It really is, it must really be one heck of an experience to see colors when you have been blind your entire life. Thank you for trying my idea\", she didn't peer to closely, noticing that Will was crying tears of joy and decided not to ruin his moment.\n\nHer volcarona seems a bit confused but pleased, buzzing around happily. It may not be fully aware of what its role was, but it sensed that it was good. Marsha gave it a poffin and some rubs for bein a good moth." }, { "author": "Will;.**.;", "message": "```How can I thank you?```\n\nAn experience he never had indeed. As sad as it sounded he never experienced the joy to see what people called beautiful or ugly, and most certainly if he came to one day, be able to see the world surrounding him, then he'd probably find beauty in every living being. \nIt was a rare moment he was going to cherish his whole life, the Volcarona he just *Saw* Made him way more emotional than one could have been but you couldn't blame him for he just learnt what \"Beautiful\" Meant. Such a pretty and warm moth he'd never forget.\n\nIt was one of these uncommon moment where you could see Will without his mask, he never usually took it off as it brought him a feeling of safety *For some reasons*.\nSuch pretty lilac, pale eyes that not a lot had the chance to see behind this black mask that hid his face, and perhaps it was the thing that made him look even more childish.\n\n\"I-... Really I am the one thanking you. I didn't know that one day I could... Actually see something.\" He mumbled softly as he let out a small chuckle, drying his tears and giving Marsha the prettiest smile he's made in years.\n\n\"I,, I feel like I have to thank you, but...

Mo sighed heavily and gripped his hair, he tried breathing in and out trying to calm down. 'Sophy is probably fine... Right!? I called Kukui to keep an eye on him, yeah... Kukui knows what he's doing.' Molayne finally calmed down, he sighed softly and slumpes down onto the rocky ground.

Molayne chuckled and pet the pokemon's head \"Hey Dugtrio, you think Sophy will be okay?\" The pokemon nodded and cried happily.

Yeah! \" The Dugtrio cried out once again and the two smiled, Molayne let go of his hair and chuckled softly. 'I'm worrying over nothing haha, everything is fine in Alola. Yeah.\" Molayne was known to worry very very much, especially when he isn't around Sophocles. Kukui had a very and I mean very hard time convincing Molayne to even take up a position as an elite four member for the fear of something happening to Sophocles.

Or, he turned it off when getting the flight here. The jet cruiser isn't something he preferred but if it meant easy travel, then he might as well take it. And it's free! Why not take advantage of this? He landed on the island way early in the day, but it's like his body is ineffective to any sorts of timezones. So, went on a hike. Yes, a hike! After being cooped up in the plane with nothing to look back at besides anticipation to teach this \"Amelia\", Kukui was more than ready to get his blood pumping! Training moves with his Pokémon is one thing, but Kukui rather use his own two legs to travel, thus his trek up the mountains. If there's no time limit, he likes to take his time. Memory is a good camera so he stopped here and there to observe the area before going on.\n\nFinally reaching the top, Kukui stretched. Mountain air is usually thin at the top, but who's to say that the professor isn't used to it? It reminded him of the mountains back in Alola. Wait, is it right for him to get homesick already? Brushing that aside, this island itself is a chance to explore and see what it has to offer. The place is as big as a region itself. Moving closer to the peak, Kukui spots a silhouette. With a place full of strong trainers he's not surprised to see the place isn't unoccupied. *\"Hey there!\"* He wanted to call, but the words doesn't leave his mouth when he overheard the person talking.\n\n*\"Phew, Kukui 's a good man so yeah. Sophie would be just fine! Yeah!\"*\n\n\"Molayne! Call this a coincidence but is that you?\" He continues walking closer to the scrawnier man. Then it seized him that—Sophocles!

I left you in charge of Sophy!\" The blonde's worry came at full force this time and began pulling at his hair again.

Kukui did you atleast tell someone else to watch over Soph? Oliva? Hala? Accerola? Kahili? Guzma even?\" Molayne's breathing started to accelerate which wouldn't have a good end result.

[ { "author": "Keli'i || Professor Kukui", "message": "Kukui knew that. Molayne did leave Sophocles in Kukui's care, but that was something he meant to talk with this cousin about. It depends on how much a worry wart this one is if he'd calm down or not. \"That, you did,\" He confirmed as the other one was clearly panicking from his presence here without Sophocles clinging onto the professor's side. \"I'm sure he has his friends who'll drop by to look out for him. Plus, he has his Pokémon.\" He starts gesturing with his hand, with the other placed on his hip. \"But Molayne, Sophocles isn't just a kid. He's also a trail captain. Someone you gave the position to because you thought he was capable, yeah? For now, you have to believe that Sophocles can do without us looking over his shoulders every time.\"\n\nThe frightened state of the other can be hard to watch, but if Kukui can believe without a doubt that the electric-type trial captain will be alright, then he'll be alright. Royal. It's a nickname that much reminds him of his alter ego. Coming from Molayne, he understood where it came from but he hopes the scrawnier male wouldn't say it in front of others. He needs to keep that identity hidden. \"We've been invited to this island, woo! We can't have our heads stuck in the clouds while we're here.\" He turns his head from looking at Molayne—to the edge of the peak, overlooking the forest below. \"Are we too high up? I don't want you passing out, yeah, if you keep panicking.\" The professor himself just got up here but he doesn't mind trekking back down the mountain for his friend's safety." }, { "author": " Molayne ", "message": "Molayne let out a heavy sigh and let go Kukui the blonde got back up and dusted his pant legs off. \"Yeah you're right. Sophocles is able to put up a fight and he has the other trial captains of melemele on his side, my aunt amd uncle are still around so Sophy is probably with his parents.\" Molayne scratched his head a laughed nervously \"Sorry about this Kukui, you know I worry too much. I'm feeling better now though, thank you Kukui.\" Molayne's classic tired smile returned to his pale face and his eyes brightened up again.\n\nMolayne has been rather forgetful and has let Kukui's alter ego's name slip but never around others, he's managed to keep the man's secret all these years. However this worry some state isn't the first time Kukui has seen him in, rather the third. The first time was when the two had a falling out with Guzma, the second time being when Molayne was at the league for the first time and this moment is the third. \"Yeah we should enjoy this time here, we don't always get a vacation so let's try to have fun! Ironically it's another tropical island haha.\" Molayne's Dugtrio dug down and quickly popped up by Kiawe nuzzling the Alolan man. \"We can stay up here if you'd like, the breeze is nice but how are you Kukui! Is everything going well with Burnet?\"" }, { "author": "Keli'i || Professor Kukui", "message": "\"It's a good thing too, yeah! Knowing someone is always looking out for you is nice, so don't stop worrying, Mo. Just... Don't worry *Too much!*\" It's true Molayne is always the worry wart but Kukui always finds a way to calm down his friend. Well, of course, since they've known each other since back in their Pokémon trainer days. It pleased the professor that someone that's stressed out like Molayne is a very strong trainer. That just proves that you can't judge a book by its covers. He gives the other one a closed-eye smile. \"What are friends for, right, good buddy?\" He pulls the other one close in an arm hug before once again looking over the peak of the mountain.\n\n\"A vacation. It doesn't seem like anything new since our own region is tropical in itself, yeah,\" He agrees with the steel-type specialist. \"This mountain has its own scars, that's for sure. Have you seen the trees as you were coming up here, Mo? They had marks all over them like as if someone or *Someones* Was training here. Being on an island full of strong trainers sounds dangerous but enticing, oh yeah.\" Molayne being invited signifies this. Besides, Kukui is here technically because of a job, but he won't tell the other. He would probably try to comfort Kukui, telling him he's also a very formidable trainer! But time and time again, Kukui never meant to be the greatest. His field is in studying Pokémon moves and seeing new trainers rise to the top. The development is something he always loves to witness.\n\nThe breeze *Is* Nice up here. It held something different that Alola has and vice versa. But Kukui is sure that Mt. Lanakila is way taller! Of course, it's so high up that it has snow. \"Burnet is doing amazing, woo!\" He starts, his face turning into a big soft smile at the mention of her. \"Leading up to my departure, yeah, me and her have been busy. She only gave me a small amount of attention before I headed off.\" He fakes a woe-like tone, playing as the distressed man, before laughing it off. \"She doesn't let anything deter her, yeah, and I'll forever admire her for it.\" As if talking about her any longer would make the professor miss the gal, he moves on. \"How about yourself, Mo? I know we haven't been able to see each other often anymore even back in Alola, ha! What have you been up to leading to this?\"" }, { "author": " Molayne ", "message": "\"Haha you and your constant training mindset Kukui, maybe a Beware was just itchy\" Molayne laughed soflty at the thought. Molayne smiled and patted Kukui on the back \"You and Burnet are what many call a dream couple, you two are so in sync sometimes haha. Oh now how terrible of her\" Molayne joked and nudged Kukui \"You're right there, Burnet is a hard working woman! Have you two made any new discoveries? Anything on pokemon moves of ultra worm holes? \" Molayne was was always interested in Kukui and Burnet's findings , sometimes he'd go on for hours just talking about Minior. \n\n\"Oh me? Well I don't know if you'd be super interested haha but I was working with Sophy on trying to make a machine that can restore a Minior's protective shell! We came up with a prototype but we're trying to make the shell be able to regenerate so Minior don't well die. \" Ah the memories of the first Minior shower that Molayne saw, Kukui and Guzma saw the little Molayne bawl his eyes out when a Minior died in his arms. 'Now that I think back on it, I was a big crybaby, yet being a crybaby is what led me to you' Molayne smiled at his Dugtrio. The blonde put his hands in his coat pockets and hummed softly, the breeze felt so good on his pale skin. \"So Kukui, was Burnet not invited to the Island or did she reject the invitation to study ultra beasts and other dimensions?\" If Kukui is here why would Burnet not join him, they're usually inseparable for the most part. Molayne thought for a moment 'She is probably busy with her work, augh we could've talked so much about wormholes amd dimensions! Atleast I have Kukui here to tell ke about his findings on pokemon moves knowing him he probably tried taking a darkest lariat head on. Good thing he's in shape, I'd snap in two'" } ]
