Hey guys, I'm back. Don't forget to follow this story if you've enjoyed it so far, and leave a review if you think there are things I could be doing better. Other than that, I don't have much to say, so let's jump in.

(1 day later, 2 miles off the coast of Lily of the Valley Island)

Andrew's eyes flickered open as the morning light seeped into his stateroom. He felt something heavy beside him and looked down, smiling as he saw the sleeping form of Dawn, who had a very satisfied look on her face as she gripped the blonde tightly. Andrew spent the next few minutes simply laying in the bed, gently stroking her hair, until the bluenette's eyes fluttered open.

"Good morning my sapphire" said the Sandgem native softly as he continued to run his hands through her blue hair.

"Good morning" she responded as she crawled up and kissed him. "So am I forgiven?" Andrew said jokingly, "I think I'll forgive you for telling the others the 'Dee-Dee' story, last night was wonderful." To make it up to the Twinleaf native for sharing with the others what she considered her most embarrassing secret, Andrew first treated Dawn to a romantic dinner at a fancy restaurant aboard the ship. After that they went shopping, with the boy putting on a brave face, even when he saw the price tag, it made him shiver to see so many zeroes; he was glad he had built a sizable fortune from his many wins as well as the money he had made from digging around underneath Sinnoh, where he found a number of large, beautiful gems.

After shopping came the Coup de grâce, the main event. A night of lovemaking so passionate and filled with romance that if the other girls knew about it, words would not be able to describe how jealous they would be; Andrew had pulled out all the stops with his apology, he knew Dawn was incredibly embarrassed by it, even if he was simply trying to have fun. "I'm sorry for telling them Dawn, I thought you would have gotten over it by now." Dawn sighed, "I know; you were just trying to have a little fun, and that's something I love about you." she said as she kissed his cheek.

For a few more minutes the two laid there, simply cuddling, when Andrew remembered something, he had gotten Dawn something else. Climbing out of bed, he grabbed a small box out of his jacket. "I have one more gift for you Dawn." Dawn looked at the box, curious. She gasped as she opened it up to reveal a beautiful Piplup head-shaped locket. "I-It's so beautiful" she breathed out, tears threatening to fall. "Open it up" said the boy softly as he smiled. The Twinleaf native opened the locket to reveal a picture of the two and their starters when they were in Hoenn on one side, while the other had a small inscription: "My Beloved Sapphire". Closing the locket, her hands shaking, Dawn lunged at Andrew and kissed him with everything she had, she didn't think she could ever love him more than before, but now she did. "I-I l-love it" sniffled the bluenette as she cried into her boyfriend's chest, while the blonde hugged her tightly as she continued to sob tears of happiness. "I got one for me too," said Andrew as he pulled out another box that had a similar locket, this one shaped like a Torterra's head, and the inside just had the picture.

As she calmed down the two broke apart and gazed into each other's eyes, "I love you Dawn Berlitz, I love you and the others with every fiber of my being, I never want to hurt any of you, and I will protect you from anyone who wants to," said the Sandgem native as he crushed his lips against the Twinleaf girl as she began sobbing again.

After a few more minutes of sobbing Dawn calmed down. "I-I love it, it's so beautiful, and it was so sweet and thoughtful of you to get this for me. I love you Andrew Townsend and I'll never leave you, no matter what happens," proclaimed the bluenette as she kissed him again.

As Dawn was admiring the locket a voice appeared on the intercom, "Ladies and gentlemen we will be docking shortly, please collect your things."

After the two had collected their stuff they headed out and met the others. Cheryl immediately spoke up, "Dawn I heard you crying earlier, are you alright?" The other girls looked concerned, worried for their "sister". The bluenette smiled and wrapped her arms around Andrew, "Our boyfriend got me a wonderful gift, his way of saying 'Sorry'. I absolutely love what he gave me." she said as she pulled out the locket from underneath her shirt. "It's beautiful" said Candice as she admired the craftsmanship, the others nodding in agreement. "I'll be sure to get you girls your own when I can," promised the blonde, causing the girls to pull him into a hug.

(30 minutes later)

Andrew led the group down the gangway, Dawn hanging off his arm as he gazed at the main stadium, the fires of determination burning brightly in his eyes. Tierno, Trevor, and Ethan all looked at each other, as if they knew they wouldn't stand a chance if they went up against Andrew, it would take Arceus himself to stop this whirlwind from Sandgem Town.

"So you ready to get spanked Mr. Champion?" said Trevor jokingly as he slapped Andrew's back.

"In your dreams Trevor, this was my first league, almost made it too. Torterra put up a hell of a fight, but I don't think I would have been able to go up against you know who." he said as he started off laughing, but his face quickly darkened as he mentioned Tobias.

He was pulled from his thoughts as he spotted a helicopter, most likely Cynthia's, a determined smile on his face. "Watch yourself Cynth, I'm coming for you."

Once registration was finished Andrew decided to strike it out alone and check the place out. A broad smile graced him as he saw a familiar hairdo.

"Hey Hilda!" the brunette spun around at hearing her name and her heart began pounding as she spotted the guy she had been eyeing since the Hoenn League.

"Andrew!" she squealed as she enveloped him in a hug, "I missed you!" Andrew blushed as he felt her breasts squish against him

"It's good to see you too Hilda, I've kinda missed you too." said the blonde as he returned the hug, Hilda quietly letting out a breath of relief as they broke the hug.

If Andrew had been mesmerized by her figure before he was blown away by it now. She was taller, slightly more than Giselle, and had filled out very nicely. It took the blonde massive amounts of willpower to not just stare at her chest, which had grown significantly, Andrew estimating it to be somewhere between Leaf's and Cheryl's.

Hilda was doing the exact same thing. Andrew didn't have his iconic jacket, so all he had was his cap, jeans, and a white T-shirt. She drooled as she saw his muscular arms and wondered what he looked like underneath that shirt. If his arms were any indication his chest would drive her insane with lust.

"So, what's been happening Hilda?" asked Andrew, stopping Hilda from ogling him any further.

"I've been great! I beat Alder to become the new Unova Champion!" she said proudly.

"That's awesome Hilda!" Andrew said as he gave her a congratulatory hug, causing her to blush and her heart to race again.

"Well I went off to become the champion of Kalos, Hoenn, and, Arceus willing, my home region Sinnoh."

"So, wanna have that battle you promised me?" said the brunette hopefully.

"Nope" chirped the blonde.

"WAIT WHAT?" yelled the Unovan, clearly angry with him.

"Cool your jets Hilda, I wanna battle you in the Unova Championship. Tell you what, after this I'll grab my gang and we'll head straight for Unova, where I WILL take your title." grinned the blonde, causing Hilda to calm down, "She's kinda cute when she's upset"

"You got yourself a deal. Prepare to lose though," said the brunette as she playfully punched Andrew's arm. "We'll see about that" said the Sandgem native as the two laughed.

"S-So Andrew, w-wanna hang out?" "I got time to kill, so sure!" chirped the blonde as he grabbed Hilda by the hand, causing her to blush furiously.

After a while Andrew was walking to the stadium with Hilda for the opening ceremony.

"WHAT! Torterra could wipe the floor with your crew by himself! With his eyes closed!" said Andrew as the two got into a faux-argument. "NO WAY! My Serperior could whip that guy in a flash!" As the two stared each other in the face angrily they suddenly burst out laughing as they entered the stadium.

(The next day)

Andrew breezed through his first match, the kid didn't stand a chance and was in tears when the match was called. However, as the two went to shake hands Andrew knelt down and gave the young trainer some advice and a few words of encouragement, he knew what it was like to painfully lose. As the two shook hands the crowd roared with approval at the sportsmanship.

The next trainer was a bit tougher, she had a few tricks up her sleeve, managing to take out Braviary and Serperior. But they managed to hang on to secure the victory for the quarterfinals.

In the other bracket, Andrew could only grimace as he watched Brendan steamroll both Trevor and Tierno, even though Trevor's Mega Charizard put up very stiff resistance, taking out three of Brendan's team before he was finally brought down. The Hoenn native showed no mercy to his opponents, he was hellbent on facing and crushing Andrew.

Turning his attention to the matchups for the quarterfinals he saw he was facing Ethan. The two boys looked at each other and grinned; win or lose, this was going to be one hell of a battle.

The two boys bowed in respect to each other as they entered their respective boxes, "Good luck Ethan, I want you to give me hell." "Believe me, I'll try!"

Up in the stands Dawn, Rosa, and Leaf had donned their cheerleader outfits, drawing gazes of many nearby males, although these were quickly shut down by hard glares from Lucas and Barry, it helped they had Infernape and Empoleon out to assist in guard duty. Andrew's parents had also made it and were cheering their son on with the others.

"This official three-on-three battle between Ethan Hibiki of New Bark Town in Johto and Andrew Townsend of Sandgem Town in Sinnoh will now begin!" The crowd cheered loudly as Andrew's name was called, to the people of Sinnoh he was their hometown hero and a source of pride for Sandgem Town.

"Donphan let's roll!" yelled Ethan as a massive gray elephant appeared and let out a mighty roar through his trunk.

"Alright Kricketune let's make some noise!" yelled Andrew as the large red cricket appeared and created a short melody with his arms.

"Donphan start this with Sandstorm!" Donphan roared as he rolled in place and kicked up a massive cloud of dust.

"Kricketune use Bug Buzz! Figure out where he is and when you do, use Brick Break!" Kricketune began to furiously flap his wings as a red wave rippled outwards. Kricketune listened closely for any cries of pain and heard one. He quickly used his wings to fly towards the sound, his arm glowing white.

Donphan's eyes widened as the red cricket rocketed towards him and bashed him over the head with Brick Break. "Use your wings to blow away the sand!" Kricketune complied and flapped his wings, the wind causing the sandstorm to dissipate. "Donphan use Rollout!" "Kricketune let's wind him down with Sing!" Kricketune grinned and began to play a beautiful melody, causing Donphan to unroll and eventually fall to sleep. "Donphan get up!" cried Ethan, but it was no use. "Alright Kricketune let's push our advantage, use X-Scissor!" Kricketune nodded and lunged at the sleeping elephant, his arms crossed and glowing white.

Ethan then had an idea, "Donphan use Sleep Talk!" Andrew's eyes widened, "Kricketune get out of there!" Donphan, his eyes still closed, summoned several rocks and hurled them at a very surprised Kricketune, Rock Slide. The Cricket Pokemon was sent flying back with swirls in his eyes.

"Kricketune is unable to battle." Ethan had drawn first blood.

"Don't think it's over yet Ethan. Zangoose, let's bring down the house!" The shiny normal type appeared and clashed his claws together.

"Donphan vs. Zangoose begin!"

At this point Donphan had woken up, stomping his foot angrily at the grinning Zangoose.

"Alright Donphan use Slam!" Donphan roared and charged towards the Normal Type.

"Let's put him on ice with Blizzard!" Zangoose grinned and opened his mouth to fire a bone-chilling wind at the charging elephant. When the wind died down Donphan harmlessly slid by Zangoose, encased in a massive block of ice.

"Donphan is unable to battle."

"Alright Pibu, let's give them a shock!" yelled Ethan as a powerful-looking Raichu appeared. "Well I'll be, I remember when that guy was just a little Pichu." Pibu recognized Andrew and waved happily, "Good to see you too buddy!" laughed the trainer. Zangoose grinned, this Raichu looked powerful.

"Zangoose versus Raichu begin!"

"Alright Pibu, let's start with a Thunderbolt!" "Zangoose ground yourself and take it!" The crowd let out a gasp, while Andrew's friends knew he was planning something.

Zangoose's claws glowed metallic gray as he slammed them into the ground seconds before the lightning hit him. To everyone's shock, nothing happened, Zangoose looked barely hurt.

"Little trick I learned a while back if you're wondering. Alright Zangoose, let's fight back with Crush Claw!" Zangoose pulled out his claws and hurled himself at Pibu, leaving a nasty slash mark across the electric type's chest. "C'mon Pibu I know you can do this!" Pibu stood up and let out a cry of determination, "ALRIGHT!" cried the Johto native, "Use Volt Tackle!" Pibu grinned and ran full tilt at Zangoose, wreathing himself in electricity. "Zangoose let's wrap this up with Focus Punch!" as Pibu neared, Zangoose cocked his fist back and slammed the Raichu directly in the face, a sickening crunch reverberated throughout the stadium as Pibu was sent sprawling several feet from Ethan, his nose looked bent out of shape. "Damn Zangoose, I think you broke something," said the blonde, causing the Cat Ferret to scratch the back of his head in embarrassment.

"Raichu is unable to battle."

"Alright Andrew, this guy's been wanting a rematch, Exbo let's do this!" Ethan roared as a mighty Typhlosion appeared. Andrew looked at Zangoose, who was panting heavily, and made a decision, "I forfeit Zangoose."

"Alright Ethan, let's have a battle of starters. Torterra, to victory!" yelled Andrew. The crowd roared in approval as Torterra appeared, letting out a deafening roar. Exbo snarled at the massive tortoise, who simply snorted at the flaming badger.

"Alright Exbo, let's kick this off with Flamethrower, aim for the tree!" Exbo nodded and let loose a torrent of scorching flames. "Torterra block it with Bulldoze!" The grass type nodded and stomped his front feet, causing a large rock to appear, blocking the fire. "Now use Iron Head!" The Sinnoh starter nodded and took off, his head glowing silver, crashing through the earthen barrier and into Exbo, who was sent skidding several yards.

"Exbo use Smokescreen!" The fire type grinned and let loose a thick cloud of black smoke. "Torterra keep your eyes peeled." "Now use Overheat!" Torterra roared in pain as a searing jet of flames slammed into his side, "Hang in there buddy! You fought Regice and almost came out on top, I know you're tougher than this!" The grass type let loose a loud roar of defiance as he glowed green, signifying that Overgrowth had activated. Torterra then fired a Razor Leaf in the direction the flames came in and heard a yelp of pain. Grinning, he slammed the ground with his feet and everyone looked up to see a Typhlosion being sent skyward. "Now use Heavy Slam as he comes down! "Hang in there Exbo! Stay strong!" was all Ethan could say as Torterra rammed into the fire type as he came crashing down, catapulting the badger into a wall. As Exbo slumped down, it was clear there were swirls in his eyes.

"Typlohsion is unable to battle, Torterra and Andrew Townsend win!"

The stadium erupted into cheers as Andrew congratulated his faithful starter, who nuzzled his master's head in appreciation. Meeting Ethan in the middle, the two shook hands. "You really had me there with both that Sleep Talk and that Smokescreen." praised Andrew. "Thanks, your Torterra is a walking tank, now get out there and win this damn thing." said Ethan as the two high-fived.

(2 days later)

Andrew sat in the locker room, contemplating strategies. He had faced a very competent trainer from Unova named Stephen, who apparently also knew Ash. His Sawk was an absolute wrecking ball, but Andrew pushed through and secured victory. Now it was him and Brendan. As the tournament had progressed their attitudes were clear. While Andrew was gracious in victory, Brendan was arrogant and berated those he defeated as "weak", something the crowds did not like at all. Suffice to say, the Sinnoh native was the favored trainer, and not just because he was on his home turf.

"Mr. Townsend, you're up." "Time to take this piece of Tauros shit down a peg."

As Andrew strode out amidst a thunderous applause and roaring cheers, he kept his eyes trained on his opponent. Brendan's attitude as well as his assault on Andrew had made this a grudge match.

"We have some unfinished business you and I," called Andrew, "and with Arceus as my witness, I will see it settled."

"Keep dreaming weakling, this will be just like the Hoenn League all those years ago, but the lead will be much larger than two Pokemon. By the way, I see Dawn and those other girls up there in those smoking hot outfits. They're going to look even better when they're cheering for me." smirked Brendan.

"If you touch them I swear to Arceus you will be dinner for my Sharpedo" said Andrew as he grit his teeth and unclipped a Pokeball.

"This six-on-six match between Brendan Yuki of Petalburg City and Andrew Townsend of Sandgem Town will now commence."

"Swampert, let's show this weakling the door." said Brendan coolly as the water type appeared and glared at Andrew; Brendan's Pokemon had unfortunately inherited their trainer's trademark arrogance.

"Gengar, playtime." said Andrew as the Ghost type appeared. "Let me ask you a question Brendan. If I'm so weak then explain this." Andrew pressed the stone on his wristband and Gengar was enveloped in pink light, revealing Mega Gengar. "Brendan, say hello to Mega Gengar, and he will be serving you Swampert's ass on a silver platter."

Brendan grit his teeth, "Swampert use Hydro Cannon!" Swampert opened his mouth and fired a highly pressurized jet of water.

"Dodge and use Energy Ball!" Gengar effortlessly floated to the side, dodging the water, and fired a green ball of energy for massive damage. "Swampert, pull yourself together and show the world you are not weak!" Swampert nodded and roared in defiance. "Now use Bite!" Swampert charged Gengar and bit down, doing decent damage since it was super effective, but Gengar was far from seriously injured.

"Sucker Punch" said Andrew calmly. Gengar grinned and disappeared. Seconds later he reappeared and clocked Swampert in the back of the head. The last thing Swampert saw before fainting was a Gengar that was giggling like a schoolgirl.

"Swampert is unable to battle."

"Well I'm leading by one, better hurry up, lest the gap widens" taunted Andrew.

"Rhyperior crush this idiot!" roared Brendan as the massive Rock type appeared. "I forfeit Gengar." said Andrew calmly. Even Gengar looked confused, but when he looked into his master's mind and saw the plans he had he giggled and dutifully floated to the sidelines, this was going to be funny.

Andrew set down his backpack and knelt beside it, "Cinccino, come on out girl." said Andrew sweetly as a small grey Pokemon poked her head out of his backpack and jumped onto the field.

"OH MY ARCEUS THAT IS SO CUTE!" squealed several females as Andrew covered his ears. Flareon, who had been sitting on his shoulders, pumped his paw in encouragement, "Flare!"

Brendan was laughing hysterically, as was Rhyperior, "You think that tiny thing can beat Rhyperior? Oh man beating you is going to be so much fun!"

"Go ahead then, I'll let you get first move."

"You'll regret that Townsend," said Brendan as he wiped a tear from his eye. "Rhyperior let's make this quick with Megahorn!" Rhyperior nodded and charged towards the little Pokemon, some in the audience turned away, not wanting to witness such a brutal attack.

"Cinccino on my command," said Andrew unfazed. Cinccino nodded and waited patiently, she had faith in her master. As Rhyperior drew near Andrew isued his orders. "Seed Bomb now!" barked the blonde. Cinccino jumped up, gracefully dodging the charging Rhyperior and as she landed she turned around and lobbed several seeds at the confused Pokemon, landing several direct hits for massive damage.

"Weak you say Brendan?" taunted the Sinnoh native. "I'll show you! Rhyperior use Brick Break!" "Cinccino use Aqua Tail!" Cinccino effortlessly dodged Rhyperior's fist and swung her water-coated tail, smacking Rhyperior across the face.

The crowd couldn't believe it, this tiny Pokemon was beating Rhyperior around like it was nothing. It was almost kind of funny; Gengar was on the sidelines howling with laughter as he watched the spectacle.

"Alright girl we've had our fun, use Sing." Cinccino nodded and sang a beautiful song that caused Rhyperior to crash to the ground, fast asleep. Fastening his cap, Andrew pointed at the sleeping Pokemon, "Alright Cinccino, let's wrap this up with Wake Up Slap!" The Normal type giggled and slapped her paw across Rhyperior's face. His closed eyes were replaced with swirls, indicating he was out of commission.

"Rhyperior is unable to battle."

Cinccino jumped into Andrew's arms, purring as he praised her and stroked her soft fur. As she and Andrew touched noses a chorus of "Awwww" could be heard as the crowd was touched by the tender moment between trainer and Pokemon. "You did wonderful Cinccino, get some rest, you deserve it." The little normal type licked her trainer in appreciation and sat on his head. Gengar was on the sidelines rolling on the ground roaring with laughter, that match was the funniest thing he had seen in years.

Brendan's eye was twitching as he simmered with rage, he was being humiliated in front of everyone, including Dawn, the object of his desires. But no more, he was going to beat this idiot so badly his parents would consider him a lost cause.

"That's it! Aggron obliterate this loser!" "Tyranitar, come out and play." Tyranitar grinned as he saw his opponent, he would wrestle with Andrew's Aggron all the time, he was going to have fun with this. "Wanna take this one alone buddy?" Tyranitar nodded before pointing to his wrist, causing his master to grin. "Let's do it," said the blonde as he pressed the stone and Tyranitar was enveloped in pink light. When it died down Mega Tyranitar was revealed and he let out a deafening roar.

"Alright buddy go play." said Andrew. Tyranitar grinned and charged at Aggron. Before Brendan could say anything Tyranitar had tackled Aggron to the ground and began rolling around, as if they were wrestling, with the crowd looking on in amusement. Pulling the steel type back up Tyranitar cocked a fist back and sent Aggron flying with a Fire Punch to the chin. Tyranitar then fired a Dragon Pulse at the airborne Aggron, who crashed to the ground with a resounding thud.

As the steel type got up, Brendan issued his orders, "Aggron, show Andrew what an idiot he is to leave Tyranitar to his own devices, use Iron Head!" Aggron roared as he lowered his head and charged at Tyranitar, who grinned and got into a wrestling pose, ready to receive the charge.

As Aggron rammed into Tyranitar, the massive green Pokemon brought a dark fist, powered up by Payback, crashing down onto Aggron's head for heavy damage.

As a finisher Tyranitar stomped the ground as a stone pillar arose, sending Aggron skyward. As he fell back down, Tyranitar cocked back his right fist and sent a Focus Punch careening into the steel type, catapulting him into a wall unconscious.

"Aggron is unable to battle, Tyranitar wins" The massive green Pokemon let out a deafening roar in triumph and fired a jet of flames from his mouth.

"Had fun buddy?" Andrew asked as he walked up to his hulking rock type. Tyranitar blinked then pulled Andrew into a crushing hug, nuzzling his master in thanks for such a fun match.

"Glad...you...had fun" said Andrew as he struggled to breathe. Once Tyranitar put down his master Andrew patted him on the side and he went over to the sidelines to watch the rest with Gengar.

Both were now down three Pokemon, and Andrew only because he forfeited them. Brendan couldn't believe it, he was getting thoroughly thrashed. But his stubborn and arrogant mind prevented him from seeing he had no chance.

"Shiftry, defeat these weaklings." "You still think I'm weak Brendan?" "Yes, I do, a poor excuse of a trainer like you doesn't deserve to handle Pokemon. You do the title a disservice and all you have going for you is luck, just like that idiot from Pallet Town."

Up in the stands Leaf, Dawn, and everyone else who knew Brendan was talking about Ash were fuming. They couldn't help but giggle as they saw the look in Andrew's eyes, he shared their sentiments and he was about to break out some very big guns.

"I see." said Andrew calmly as he removed a red Pokeball from a chain around his neck, "Well then Brendan, care to explain why a 'weakling' like me has this? Come out my friend."

As the light died down everyone gasped. Before their very eyes stood Regigigas, a Sinnoh legendary. "Brendan you may know this fellow, Regigigas, he's the leader of the Golem Trio your region Hoenn is famous for. They answer to him, and he answers to me."

"So I ask you again, am I a weakling?" "N-NO, I refuse to believe an idiot like you has such a powerful Pokemon! You don't deserve such power, not an Aura-using freak like you!"

The crowd was surprised, this kid could use Aura? Their questions were answered as Andrew summoned a blue ball in his palm, his parents gazing in wonder.

Andrew sighed, "I really didn't want to have to use legends, I really didn't. But it seems I have no other choice. My friend, would you mind finishing this battle for me?" Regigigas gave a series of beeps that Andrew interpreted as "Gladly"

"Have fun then. Remember, unlike Max, this guy deserves it." Regigigas nodded and would have grinned sadistically if he had a face.

"Shiftry versus R-Regigigas begin!"

"Shiftry use Leaf Storm!" roared Brendan as Shiftry hurled a torrent of leaves at the legendary. Regigigas bounded towards Shiftry and sent him flying with a Fire Punch, knocking him out instantly.

"Shiftry is unable to battle." Brendan was starting to sweat nervously. "Swellow, I require your assistance!" The bird almost fainted in shock as he saw his opponent, and faint he did as Regigigas fired a Thunderbolt, frying Swellow.

"Swellow is unable to battle" "Sceptile, it's up to you."

"Iron Tail" As Sceptile swung his tail down Regigigas shocked everyone and grabbed it, Scpetile's eyes widening in terror. Regigigas proceeded to slam Sceptile into the ground multiple times, creating a small crater where he dropped the unconscious gecko.

"Sceptile is unable to battle. Regigigas and Andrew Townsend win!"

Andrew walked up and shook hands with Regigigas, who gently returned the handshake, "Thank you my friend, I apologize for using you." The hulking Normal type gave a series of noises that Andrew heard as "Don't sweat it".

Meanwhile Brendan had fallen to his knees. He had been utterly humiliated in front of the entire Sinnoh region, likely the world. But most importantly, he had been humiliated in front of Dawn. Slowly but surely, he simmered with rage as Andrew walked towards him.

"Brendan, I'm willing to let the past be the past, just take my hand. I want to make things right." said the Sinnoh native softly as he stuck out a hand.

"You..." muttered Brendan, "YOU!" he roared as he lunged at the blonde, the crowd gasped as the two began wrestling. Tyranitar and the others raced over to help their master but they were stopped by a wall of Aura Andrew had erected around the two. "THIS WAS MY LEAGUE TO WIN! YOU STOLE HER FROM ME! YOU HUMILIATED ME!" roared Brendan as he hurled punch after punch at the Sinnoh native. "I'M GOING TO FUCKING KILL YOU! I DON'T CARE WHAT HAPPENS TO ME, AS LONG AS YOU'RE DEAD!"

Andrew managed to push the Hoenn native off of him and got into fighting stance, his face and arms bruised. "Bring it on Brendan! You don't scare me!"

Brendan lunged at his opponent, eyes filled with hatred. He was going to kill this freak if it was the last thing he did.

Suddenly he stopped, he couldn't move. The crowd gasped as another Sinnoh legend appeared, Uxie. They all shrank back in fear as a voice boomed out, "You will not hurt our friend!" the voice said as the yellow legendary used Hypnosis, putting the Hoenn native to sleep.

As Andrew brought down the barrier, his Pokemon rushed to him and began nuzzling and licking him, glad that he was okay.

Seconds later he was hugged tightly by his mother, who was sobbing heavily. "I'm okay Mom, just a little banged up." "I-I w-was so scared, I thought I was going to lose you." stammered the young mother as she broke down again at the thought of losing her boy for good. Andrew simply held her tight until she calmed down.

Security soon came and took Brendan away while the crowd looked on dumbstruck, deciding it wouldn't be appropriate to start cheering.

As Andrew entered the locker room he was tackled by his girls, all of them had tears in their eyes; even Lucas and Barry looked like they were about to start tearing up as they held their respective girlfriends close. Andrew simply held them close individually and comforted them, assuring them that he was okay.

As he comforted each of the girls he couldn't help but smile a little, "Today may have been a mess, but I still won. So you best prepare Cynthia. Once the Elite Four are dealt with, you'll be next"

And I'll cut it there. I'll be going back over previous chapters and adding some stuff and making edits if I see anything, so keep an eye out for that.

I'm done here, I will A, B, C ya.
