Pikachu is switched back in. You frown as you see the state he's in.

Whatever energy he still had, it left his body. But how? You allowed it to rest?

Or maybe that was a wrong decision? Maybe the adrenaline rush was the one thing that kept him standing?

You clutch his Pokéball and are about to order a Quick Attack.

But it never happens.

Pikachu drops down, too tired to fight on.

Your eyes fall down as well. You do not dare to look Blue in the eyes.

The crowd boos you. They wonder if you really were the champion.

Blue blinks as if he doesn't believe what is happening.

You turn around, leaving your Pokémon behind. They deserve a better trainer.

Red decided to become a truck driver instead. At least he's good at this.
