Chapter 1: A Bully of an Opponent
The small Riolu stumbled away from the Spearow chasing it. The attacking pokemon turned away. Curious, Riolu walked towards it, only to jump backwards when the Spearow immediately turned around. The attacker peck into Riolu's chest and sent it crashing into a tree.
Riolu let out a grunt and scrambled to his feet, fists raised. It started lighting up its left fist. The Spearow flew close, obviously wondering about it. Riolu jumped up into the air, punching the Spearow with all of its might. The flying type pokemon crashed into the ground, Riolu landing not far from it.
"Lu!" It growled at the enemy.
The opposing pokemon let out a fierce chirp. The air around it lit up and all of the scratches on the pokemon faded away. It had used roost.
Before Riolu could do anything, the Spearow slashed across his body, sending him sprawling on the ground.
"Ri." He grunted, struggling to get up.
The Riolu felt the bird's beak hit him in the back of the head. His vision faded with his consciousness.
