The battleground, a large field surrounded by wooden stands filled with eeveelutions, was set and Team Aura was waiting in one of two tents that were on both sides of the field. Eon was pacing around the room they were in, Shaymin sitting there waiting for the inevitable, and Axle was looking out the door, trying to see if he could catch a glimpse of their still mysterious third opponent.
"See anything yet, Axle?" Eon asked, stopping her pacing to give a hopeful glance in Axle's direction.
"Nope," Axle answered, still not taking his eyes away from the outside. "Sorry. Even when their tent flaps in the wind I'm still not able to see anything distinct from them. Sorry, but it's no use."
"What's it matter?" Shaymin asked. "We've got our plans, so let's stick with it!"
"Knowing would help," Axle said. "Even if we've got a plan for whatever we face, knowing for sure who we're facing would keep any surprises from popping up." Axle closed the tent flap with a swish and looked back at his teammates. "But you're right, it doesn't really matter. We just need to do what we always do."
"Improv on the seat of our tails and somehow manage to win anyways," Shaymin joked.
"Not funny, Shaymin," Eon said.
Axle looked down at the eevee and saw that, while she was done pacing around the room, she was now looking towards the floor. Axle walked closer to her and placed a paw on her shoulder to get her to notice him. Eon looked up at him and the two looked at each other without saying anything for a few seconds. Once that was done, Axle walked back to his earlier position.
Eon closed her eyes and took few deep breaths. She took her time and Axle and Shaymin let her. After those few seconds, Eon opened her eyes again, the same determination she had last night glowing in her eyes.
"Alright, I'm ready," Eon said.
"Good," Axle said with a nod. "We've still got a couple of minutes though. So steel yourself for the fight ahead."
"You sure you're going to be ok with us fighting your father?" Shaymin asked in the intermediate time.
Eon put as neutral and cold of a face as possible. "If he wants to see proof, I'll give it to him. Out there, we're no longer father and daughter. We're competitors. He's my enemy."
"Eon," Shaymin said, but before he could go any farther, a flap in the tent alerted the three of them. The three looked towards the entrance where they saw Elvin walking in.
"Are you three ready?" Elvin asked.
"About as ready as we'll ever be," Axle told the white eevee with a nod. "I don't suppose you know who the third Pokémon we'll be facing is, do you?"
Elvin shook his head. "Sorry Axle," he apologized. "They don't tell me these things. I didn't even know that Leif was fighting with them."
"It's ok Elvin," Eon said. "Anyways, what are you doing here?"
"I just wanted to make sure you guys were perfectly ready," Elvin said. "Honestly, I know you guys said you'll be fine, but I'm little nervous here. You guys are facing the strongest members of this village."
"Yeah, we know that…" Eon shook her head, "but we have to win. No matter what. We have something to prove here, to everyone. We have to prove that we're strong enough to survive on our own, that there's no danger in us being outsiders."
A horn ran across the battlefield, indicating that it was time to start. The four Pokémon in the tent all looked up into the air at the sound, though Elvin also flinched at the loud sound ringing out in the air. When the sound finally stopped, they all looked at each other.
"I guess it's your time now," Elvin said. "Good luck you guys. I'll be cheering you on from the stands."
"Thanks kid," Shaymin said with a smile.
Axle nodded to his teammates and they all moved outside of the tent. The three of them continued along their way through the sunset lit field until they reached their place in the battlefield. Axle kept an eye on the tent and waited for their enemies to come out of their tent. And eventually they did, one by one. First Sparx the jolten, second Leif the leafeon. Finally, coming out of the tent a few seconds after the two, was Elder Glaceon.
"A glaceon," Axle breathed. "Should have figured."
"You were right," Eon breathed right back to him. "They were more worried about Shaymin then you."
"Good to know," Shaymin mumbled.
"Plan B then?" Axle asked.
"Plan B," both Shaymin and Eon repeated.
The three eeveelutions all walked to their position on the other side of the field. Elder Glaceon was the first to talk when they got there. "Good evening, Team Aura," she said. "It's good to see you three made it. I hope you enjoyed your last day in the village."
Axle crossed his arms. "When you're done with petty insults. We're here to fight, not banter."
"He's right," Leif said. He glared at Glaceon. "Focus on the battle instead of your hatred." Looking back at everyone else, Leif asked. "Are you three ready?"
Eon looked at her father with a melancholy expression. "Of course we are," she said.
"Ready as we'll ever be," Axle said. "Let's just get this over with."
All six combatants got into ready positions before a loud voice rang over the battlefield, shouting "Begin!"
Shaymin took off to the sky at an instant, rushing for the other side of the field before anyone else had a chance to move. Once there, he shot a strong Energy Ball straight at Elder Glaceon. The green ball of energy hit and exploded, knocking her back a bit. The smoke eventually cleared, revealing a surprised Glaceon behind. The other two members of the opposing team also looked at the grass/flying-type in shock.
"Ha, how do you like that, huh?" Shaymin asked. "One Energy Ball, Shaymin style. Think I'm scared 'cause you're an Ice-Type? Well think again!"
Big talk for someone who constantly complained about this idea when we went over the plan, Axle thought, though he quickly discarded that thought in favor of focusing on his part of the fight.
Elder Glaceon's expression quickly changed from one of surprise to anger. "Oh, I'm sorry," she spat out. "Why don't I give you a reason to fear me?"
She shot out an Ice Beam, which Shaymin promptly flew out of the way off. "That your best shot?!" Shaymin taunted. "Gonna have to have better aim then that to hit me!"
So the ice-type continued shooting off her Ice Beams and Shaymin continued dodging them, having her full and undivided attention thanks to his taunting. While that was going on, Eon shot a Shadow Ball at Sparx and Axle threw a punch at Leif respectively. Eon's attack hit while Axle's didn't, but both attacks accomplished what they needed to. Leif now had his attention squarely on Axle whereas Sparx was rushing for Eon.
"This is an odd strategy of yours," Leif commented on while charging a Leaf Blade with his tail to hit Axle with. "What do you think you're doing anyways? You're using the worst matchups possible for this fight!"
The Leaf Blade came down vertically on Axle, but a quick step back by the riolu and he was able to dodge the attack. Axle just responded to his inquiry with a shrug after the attack was over. He also responded with a Force Palm to knock Leif back a little. Leif's defenses made it so the attack wasn't all too powerful, but Axle wasn't particularly interested in doing damage at the moment. While Leif was busy trying to hit him and while he was dodging, Axle kept a quick eye on everyone's progress.
Eon had it the worse with her matchup. She used Quick Attack to try and keep up with Sparx's natural speed, but Sparx's long range electrical options along with his natural speed made it so that Eon was at a heavy disadvantage. She tried her best to dodge, but Axle noticed that she took a couple of electrical hits from the jolteon. Axle noticed one Thunderbolt hit her square in the chest, causing her to cry out. This distracted the riolu enough for him to be hit by an X-Scissor. Axle resisted it, but the blow was a reminder for him to focus.
Axle threw a Bullet Punch at Leif, but the leafeon dodged all the blows. Leif countered with a Leaf Blade, which Axle dodged by jumping to the left side. Axle then did a couple of backflips to get his way away from Leif for a couple of seconds and check on what Shaymin was doing.
Glaceon was still stuck in Shaymin's little trap, firing Ice Beams at him while Shaymin flew around the battlefield. As this was happening, ice started appearing on the ground, especially in areas where the Ice Beam hit directly on the ground. The riolu took note of those areas before turning his attention back Leif, who was getting in range to attack Axle.
"We're done here," Leif said. "I'm sorry Axle, but you made a bad choice. You chose a physical fighter to fight the opponent with the highest defense, you chose the Pokémon weak to ice-type attacks to face the ice-type, and you chose my daughter to fight a Pokémon with a clear mobility advantage against her. What we're you thinking?"
To pound it in, Leif launched an Aerial Ace attack with his hair and tail leaves, hitting Axle strong with an unavoidable, super-effective attack. Axle flew back and slid across the ground at the attack. Axle managed to get up rather quickly, but he couldn't help but clutch his right side with his left hand in pain.
"If you're seriously what's leading the team, then I worry for my daughter even more," Leif continued. "Perhaps it's best I don't see her again. With you leading her…"
"I thought we're fighting, not talking," Axle said. He lifted his hands back up into a ready position.
Leif sighed. "You're right. I should end this now."
Axle got ready when he heard a voice coming from his right. "Alright Axle, it's time!" Shaymin yelled from somewhere.
Axle jumped a couple of leaps to the left and managed to turn Leif's attention around 90 degrees. Once there, Axle wrapped his paw in a dark claw and slashed at the leafeon. Once his attack hit, the riolu did a backflip to get out of the range of a counterattack and to keep Leif's attention towards him.
"The battle isn't over yet," Axle said. "Let me ask you Leif. Do you honestly believe we would have gotten this far if we were as bad as you think we are? Do you really think that we'd do this fight half-heartedly?"
"You haven't exactly impressed me yet," Leif said.
"This fight is one of the most important fights of Eon's life," Axle said. "We spent hours planning and preparing for this fight. So I apologize if we haven't impressed you yet but…" Axle looked over Leif's shoulder, "I get the feeling this fight's about to turn around rather quickly."
And before Leif could react, look over his shoulder, or even figure out what was going on, a bright light hit him. Axle jumped back out of the way to avoid the attack, a smirk on his face as he did so. When the light dimmed, Axle saw Leif stuck there, frozen solid in ice, hit with Elder Glaceon's Ice Beam.
"Eon, Shaymin, to me!" Axle announced.
Within a few seconds, Eon and Shaymin dropped what they were doing and regrouped back to Axle's side. While they were doing that, Axle noticed Glaceon and Sparx looking at Leif's frozen body, the former in anger and the later in surprise and worry. The riolu held back a snicker at seeing how baffled the two were at what happened.
Once Eon and Shaymin reached Axle's side, Axle commanded, "Switch. Shaymin, take Sparx. Cut his mobility with the ice. Eon, you're with me against Glaceon."
"Got it," Shaymin said, quickly flying off afterwards.
Eon nodded to Axle. "Let's do this," she said.
Taking care to avoid slipping on the patches of ice on the floor, Axle and Eon together in the direction of Elder Glaceon. The ice-type, still ticked for being tricked, responded with an Ice Beam aimed directly at the two while they were running at her. The Ice Beam was also aimed at the floor going up towards them to make it more difficult for the two to reach her.
"Eon, intercept," Axle commanded.
"Roger."
Eon charged an orb of dark energy and fired it directly towards Glaceon's mouth. The Shadow Ball hit the Ice Beam before it hit Glaceon, but the explosion of the two forces successfully covered her face and obscured her vision. Axle and Eon took this opportunity to double their speed in order to reach their opponent in time. When they both got close enough, Axle jumped into the air with the intent of hitting her with a super effective Force Palm.
At least, that was his intent. But as Axle went into the mist himself with his left arm extended he suddenly felt sharp fangs grab onto his arm. Axle was then pulled around by whatever grabbed onto his arm for a few seconds until he was thrown onto the ground and scraped himself across the floor. By then the mist was cleared, and when Axle looked up he saw Elder Glaceon glaring down at him.
"W-what?" Axle asked.
"Just because I can't see doesn't mean I can't listen," Glaceon said snidely. "Now then…"
Glaceon was suddenly interrupted by an explosion of a Shadow Ball that hit her backside. Glaceon turned around and Axle looked around her to see Eon had finished her approach and was the one who shot the Shadow Ball. The two eeveelutions glared at each other when they caught eyes.
"And just because you have Axle down doesn't mean I'm not here," Eon said.
"Fine," Glaceon growled. "I wanted to take you out anyway. The little eevee who has so endeared herself to my son. The eevee who so dreamed of seeing the world outside and tainting my son with your dreams as well. I've been so looking forward taking you out and keeping you far away from this village."
During Glaceon's little chat, Axle managed to get up onto his feet, and he took the opportunity to run to Eon's side. "I wouldn't recommend forgetting about me," Axle said.
"Wouldn't dream of it," Glaceon said. "Now then, why don't I show you just why I'm an 'Elder' here."
Glaceon lifted her head up high into the air and started to breath an icy blast of artic air swirling into the sky. The Blizzard attack continued to swirl around Glaceon until it enveloped both Axle and Eon. The two braced themselves as the swirling winds and blowing snow impacted them, cooling their bodies down and causing them both damage.
"B-brace yourself," Axle grunted. "Hold on until the Blizzard is done."
"Y-yeah, I know," Eon responded. "But it's…really strong."
"…Your right," Axle said after a quick second of thought. "We…need to stop it now. Let's go…all-out attack!"
Axle and Eon rushed forward, Axle using Bullet Punch and Eon firing off another Shadow Ball. Both attacks luckily managed to make contact with Glaceon despite the lower visibility from the blizzard and they both managed to knock her back. The Blizzard quickly stopped as Glaceon was unable to continue the attack.
"Careful Eon. She's strong," Axle said while Glaceon was still reeling.
"Think I figured that out by now," Eon responded. "Got any plans?"
"Grab her attention so I can strike and take her down quickly. We can't last a prolonged fight against her."
"Sounds about right," Eon said.
Glaceon managed to get her footing again and shot an Ice Beam straight in Axle and Eon's direction. Axle dodged to the right and Eon to the left to get away from it and Eon used the now icy floor to slide around Glaceon to her side. Once there, Eon shot a Shadow Ball straight into Glaceon's side.
Glaceon grunted and moved slightly back from the attack, but was able to hold her ground even on the icy floor thanks to her type. Eon took this as her chance to fly at Glaceon despite the ice floor slowing her down from really making an impact. Still, she was able to hit Glaceon with a powerful Return attack. Glaceon flinched slightly from the attack, but she otherwise looked unfettered.
"Give up littler girl," Glaceon said as she turned towards Eon. "That barely hurt. And you're not going to do much else on this floor. Between the two of us, we know who has the advantage."
"Doesn't matter," Eon said. She shot a close ranged Shadow Ball, who's explosion allowed Eon to slide away from Glaceon without any trouble. "The only thing that matters is what you do with the terrain you're given."
Eon looked down at the floor and started shooting multiple Shadow Balls towards the various parts of the ice to break it up. Once she got some patches of solid ground to appear, Eon used Quick Attack and jumped around through those patches of ground to get some speed. Once she got some speed, Eon jumped on the ice and slid across it to hit Glaceon with a sliding Quick Attack. This blow actually caused the Ice-Type to slide on the ice.
"That's it!" Glaceon fired another Ice Beam, this time aiming for Eon's paws. She managed to hit and Eon was frozen to the ground. "I'm done playing games with you, girl! I'll take you out now!"
Glaceon opened her mouth up and a white beam started glowing within her maw. Eon's eyes widened in fear when she realized exactly what was coming for her. A powerful Hyper Beam attack.
"Now fall already!" Glaceon yelled before launching her white beam straight in Eon's direction.
Before the attack could reach her, Axle smashed the ice around her paws with a Bullet Punch before rushing out and pushing her away from the Hyper Beam attack, wrapping his arms around her in the process, allowing them both to slide away from the attack. Despite everything though, Axle could still feel the attack graze his back.
Once they were done sliding, Axle asked, "Are you…ok Eon?"
"Rubbing across the ice isn't fun, but better than getting hit by Hyper Beam I guess," Eon responded. "Sorry you had to go from attacking her to protecting me."
Axle got off from atop Eon and turned around to face Glaceon. "No, this is perfect," Axle said. "Now that she used Hyper Beam she won't be able to move. All we need to do is take her out now. You ready?"
Eon got up and noticed something. "Axle, your back!" she gasped
Axle didn't know exactly what damage he had back there, but he could feel a stinging pain from that location. Axle shook his head though and continued his focus on Glaceon. "We don't have time Eon. It's now or never. Worry about my back after this fight."
"R-right," Eon said.
Eon charged up one more Shadow Ball while Axle backed off away from the ice a bit. Axle took off running, ignoring any pain he had, until he reached the ice. Once Axle got to the ice, Eon managed to launch her Shadow Ball and hit Glaceon hard with it. As that happened, Axle knew that running would be an exercise in futility, so he took his momentum and slid across the ice instead, left arm outstretched. His left had touched Glaceon's cold fur and, before he lost any momentum, Axle brought his right arm forward in a powerful Force Palm. The super effective attack hit hard, knocking both parties away from each other and across the ice.
Axle slid across the ice on his back, further causing it pain, so much so that Axle actually cringed from it. Eon immediately ran to his side, looking over him when Axle finally stopped sliding. Still, Axle tried his best to keep himself from reacting to the pain any more then needed, and got up and ready for any more battling that needed.
"Is she…?" Axle asked while he took a look in the direction of Glaceon. Before Eon could say anything, he confirmed his own question. Elder Glaceon was lying on the floor, unconscious from Axle's final attack.
"Thank goodness, yes," Eon said. "We finally did it. Elder Glaceon has fainted."
Axle sighed. "The battle's not done yet, but at least that's one major hurdle we've made it through. So let's see what Shaymin's do…"
As Axle turned around to find Shaymin, to his immediate left he noticed Sparx slide across the ground, knocked out as well. A couple of seconds later, Shaymin flew down onto the same level as Axle and Eon. From the way he flew down and walked to them, they could tell he was tired and as he got closer they could figure out why. As Shaymin walked, sparks flew all around him and he staggered about.
"Whoa Shaymin, are you ok?" Eon asked.
"Heh, gotta give him credit," Shaymin said, his voice betraying his weariness. "First thing he did while fighting him was use Thunder Wave and paralyze me. Cut my speed down pretty good. Luckily with all the ice on the floor, he kept tripping, but it wasn't as easy of a fight as I figured." Shaymin took a second to look at Eon and Axle. "Looks like you two didn't fare that well either, huh?"
"We survived," Axle said. "And if you're done, that just leaves one more."
Axle, Eon, and Shaymin all turned around to face the still frozen leafeon.
"So…how was he?" Eon asked.
"Pretty tough," Axle answered, knowing exactly why Eon asked that question. "I'll admit, I didn't try too hard to attack him, as I was mostly serving as a distraction, but he doesn't mess around. Be careful around Leaf Blade and X-Scissor; one bad hit from those and you're done for. His Aerial Ace is about as fast as you would expect it to be. Still don't know what his last move is, but considering he hasn't used it yet, I imagine it's some sort of last resort."
"Alright," Eon said.
"Also, he's pretty defensive," Axle said. "I'll admit, I didn't try too hard to attack him, since I was mostly just distracting him, but he didn't really get hurt much from my attacks. The most damage he's taken from this fight would be from the Ice Beam. You'd be better using special attacks over physical."
Eon sighed. "I don't have many Shadow Balls left in me."
"Then you better make each one count," Axle advised.
"G-got it," Eon said.
It wasn't more than a few minutes later before the ice thawed out and Leif was able to move around again. At first he looked around in the direction he was facing, wondering what was going on, before turning around to face the trio. His eyes immediately caught both Glaceon and Sparx, and his eyes opened wide.
"So, how was that, dad?" Eon asked. "You wanted proof that I was stronger? Well look around. Axle, Shaymin, me. Together we've already taken out Elder Glaceon and Sparx. Two of you guys are down, and all three of us are still here."
Leif's mouth opened for a few seconds as he thought about what was going on. "You…how?"
Eon shook her head. "I'm sorry dad, but there's only one thing left. We have one more opponent to fight. So…are you ready?"
Leif closed his eyes and sighed. "Eon…I'm sorry," Leif said. "Regardless of everything, a father shouldn't have to fight his daughter. For forcing this on you, I apologize. But…"
Eon nodded. She started walking forward. "I…I know. And I'm ready. You should know, even if I lose to you, I have Axle and Shaymin waiting there, ready to back me up. They're part of my strength. So…while this is our fight for now, I'm not scared. I have help right behind me. Even if I faint here…even if I lose to you, my teammates will finish the job for me. That's the true strength of an Exploration Team."
Leif was silent as he looked over his daughter and absorbed her words. They both stood there like that for a few seconds before any fighting began. Eventually Leif sighed in defeat at his daughter's words.
"…Alright Eon. Let us begin."
Eon dashed forward immediately with a Quick Attack, rushing in a crescent arc to Leif's left side, both to avoid the ice between them and to attack him at the side. Eon jumped for her attack and the attack hit him on the side, but on her fall back down Leif countered with two Aerial Aces to her stomach. Those blows knocked Eon back a bit and gave her a rough landing.
With Eon on the ground, Leif charged up a Leaf Blade. Eon got to her paws and quickly scattered off before the attack hither. While Leif was still in the middle of the attack, Eon fired a Shadow Ball at him, easily hitting him with the attack. With that done, she ran off towards the nearest patch of ice where a counterattack from her father would be less easy.
"Impressive Eon, but the battle isn't over yet," Leif said. "Now let me show you just why I was chosen for this."
Leif charged up another Leaf Blade attack and ran directly towards Eon. The eevee prepared for that by walking to center of the ice, so that no matter where the attack came from Leif would have to traverse some ice to reach her. At least, that's what Eon planned for, but Leif had other plans. Instead, Leif smashed the ice with his Leaf Blade, causing it to crack and Eon to lose her footing. While Eon was busy staggering with the ice cracking around her, Leif took this advantage and hit her with an X-Scissor, knocking her back along with doing damage.
"I've sparred with your mother and fought alongside her several times before," Leif said. "She knows Ice Beam too. I know how to fight around and on ice."
"…" Eon shook her head before slowly getting up off the ground. "I'm still not giving up," the evee grunted as she got up. "No matter what. I won't give u…AAHHHGG!"
Eon fell back to the floor in pain. She hadn't fainted yet, but she was having much more difficulty getting up. Leif looked over his daughter and her struggle and took a deep, calm breath.
"This is it," Leif said as calmly as possible. "You're too wounded to keep on fighting. But the rules of the battle are rules and…I need to take you out. You put up a good fight Eon. Let me end this quickly."
Leif took a step back before jumping high into the air. While he did so, his body glowed started glowing white. Once he reached the arch of his jump and started falling back down, he was surrounded by a purple aura and orange streaks began swirling all around him. Leif fell to the ground powerfully, getting ready to use all his strength to knock out Eon as soon as possible with one final attack. Giga Impact.
Axle and Shaymin watched as the battle and watched the attack happen as it was happening. As Shaymin saw what happened, he was about to fly in that direction, but Axle held out her left paw to stop him. When Shaymin gave him the 'you're freaking crazy!' look, Axle just shook his head.
"This is Eon's battle," Axle said. The riolu turned his attention back to the battle at hand. Eon, you know what you need to do, he thought as he watched the Giga Impact come closer to his partner. Don't be afraid. Do what you need.
Eon herself watched as Leif got closer. She waited and waited and waited until Leif got close enough. Then, before Leif could hit her, Eon fired a Shadow Ball to the ground, causing it to explode in smoke all around her body. Gravity forced Leif to continue his attack despite not having clear vision, and when his attack hit, it cleared all the smoke and revealed that his attack hit nothing but the ground. Eon was nowhere to be found.
"W-wha…?" Leif asked, though he wasn't given the chance to finish that sentence as Eon quickly came from the ground and knocked him into his stomach.
Once Eon got back on her feet, she started running around, using Quick Attack to give herself momentum. Once she reached the fastest speed she could, she started running into Leif, striking him multiple times. "The strength I've gained." Strike. "From my friends." Strike. "All I've learned." Strike. "From my experiences." Strike. "Let me show you." Strike. "What it all means."
Eon stopped right in front of her father and launched one final physical attack. "To all that you've given me, I Return the favor!"
Eon's attack hit Leif hard, hard enough to knock him back. Leif finally collapsed under the pressure from the attack and this attack managed to knock Leif to the ground. Eon stood there for a few seconds, breathing, her forehead on Leif's neck, until she backed off to look at him.
"…I did it," Eon whispered. She looked back at Axle and Shaymin and said, "I…won."
Shaymin flashed a large smile. "You beat Leif? Good for you!" he looked at Axle. "You can let go of your right arm now."
At those words Axle realized that he was clutching his right arm with his left hand in a tight grip. Axle quickly dropped both hands to his side before walking up to meet with his partner, Shaymin following close behind. When he got there he looked down to see that Leif was indeed knocked out.
The trio all looked round to make sure that Sparx, Glaceon, and Leif were all still down, before looking at the crowd that was watching them the whole time. The crowd looked back at them with open mouths, all clearly surprised at what they just witnessed. There was silence, no cheers or jubilation, no congratulations from the crowd. Just silence.
"So this is what it feels like to be the winners of the least popular side," Axle mumbled. He shook his head. "I suppose we shouldn't have expected much more."
The silence was broken when Elvin and Myst ran up to the trio. "Congratulations you guys!" Elvin said, trying to give as much cheer as possible to make up for the lack of cheer from the crowd.
Myst ran up to Eon and examined her daughter carefully for all her injuries. She did the same for both Axle and Shaymin as well, both being slightly embarrassed by how physical she was during the examination. When she was done with that, she looked over to two other eeveelutions, a flareon and espeon, who were walking over to the downed eeveelutions.
"Come on you two, let's get moving," Myst commanded. "Just because the ones you wanted to win didn't, doesn't mean you can mope about when there's healing to be done. Get these three to the infirmary immediately."
Myst looked at Team Aura. "As for you three, I'd recommend coming to the infirmary as well. You've won, it's time to rest for now."
