38. Chapter 36: Friends and Foes

(1 week later, Vertress Island)

"Well everyone, here we are!" said Andrew as they walked off the ship and onto Vertress Island. "Ahh memories," said Lucas nostalgically, "wonder if we'll see any returning faces."

"Maybe I'll see Hilda," said Rosa, hoping to see her best friend from childhood.

Suddenly a voice was heard, "Rosa is that you?" The brunette turned around to see Hilda looking at her. A deafening squeal was let out as the two girls raced to hug each other, Andrew's eyes glued to Hilda's prodigious breasts as they bounced with each step the brunette took.

"I've missed you Hilda!" squealed Rosa. "Same here! What are you doing here?"

"I'm here to cheer on my boyfriend," said Rosa with a light blush. "Who is it? Is it Nate?" "Hey Hilda!" said Andrew as he walked over. "Andrew! I missed you too!" squealed the Champion, the boy blushing as her breasts squished against him.

"So Rosa, who's the lucky guy?" asked Hilda as she got back on topic. She felt her heart sink as she watched Rosa reach up and kiss Andrew on the cheek, "It's Andrew, he's my boyfriend."

"O-Oh, I would have guessed Nate," she said as she felt a mixture of sadness and jealousy well up inside of her. Rosa didn't seem to notice though, "Yeah Nate's cool and all, but he's always been more of a brother to me. There's something about Andrew that I can't get enough of, he's simply amazing."

"That's great, I'm happy for you," said Hilda, hiding her sadness, she was too late and wanted to run away and cry. She then noticed a large group of people behind the couple, including a disproportionate amount of females. "Elesa? Roxie? Doctor Fennel? CYNTHIA?" asked the Champion in shock, "What are all of you doing here?" The four girls giggled and one by one proceeded to kiss Andrew on the cheek, "Same as Rosa. We're here to cheer on our boyfriend, we share him with those girls over there too," said Cynthia as she pointed to Dawn and the others. Hilda was stunned, her crush was dating FOURTEEN different women and they were perfectly happy with it, maybe it wasn't too late for her.

"Surprised huh?" joked Andrew, "I was too. So Hilda, wanna hang out later?" "S-Sure," she said, her cheeks a light pink. "Great! We can meet up after my first battle!" he said excitedly.

"Well Hilda I'd love to chat more but we gotta get settled in and you probably have to get ready as well. See ya later!" chirped the blonde as he hugged her, causing her cheeks to go dark red and her heart to pound. "S-See ya," she said as the group left, putting a hand over her racing heart.

"Oh she definitely likes you," said Rosa as the group walked, "She looked so sad when I told her you and I were dating." "I saw hope in her eyes when we said we shared him," added Elesa. "And you were a bit touchy with her weren't you Andrew?" teased Roxie, causing the blonde to blush. "Aww don't worry sweetie," said Rosa as she hung off his arm, "I don't mind sharing you with her," she said giving a peck on his cheek. "L-Let's just get settled in," he stammered.

(7 hours later)

"So you think Andrew's gonna win?" asked Leaf as she and Dawn walked back to the hotel. They had spent the day practicing contest moves, with the brunette helping out Dawn with her battles.

"Leaf, Andrew beat Cynthia for Arceus' sake. He'd have to do something incredibly stupid to lose," reassured Dawn, "He's got this in the bag, though Hilda may prove a challenge." "Yeah, I've heard she's a tough one," said Leaf, "But I believe Andrew will win. Now let's get back to our rooms, gotta get out cheerleader outfits ready." Dawn giggled, "Oh we definitely do, he's told me we drive him absolutely nuts when we're in those outfits." "Well we need to reward him for being such a good boyfriend," giggled Leaf.

As the hotel came into view, the two girls heard a rustling coming down a nearby alley. Dawn gulped as she felt a familiar chill run down her spine. "Who's there?" she yelled as she grabbed Typhlosion's Pokeball. "Dawn what's going on?" asked Leaf.

"Someone's watching us. Come on out creep before I incinerate the entire alley!" yelled the bluenette. "Dawn I don't think anyone's..."

"Alright, alright!" a voice said from within the alley, "I'm coming out."

Dawn's eyes widened as a familiar face appeared from behind a dumpster, "Conway!? The hell are you doing back there!?" "Hello Dawn, I'm here to compete in the Unova League to answer your question. And before you accuse me of spying, I was not. I was observing," he said creepily.

"Who the hell is this guy?" whispered Leaf, "And why the hell is he so creepy?"

"He's a trainer Andrew and I ran into in Sinnoh and Hoenn. "He's been like this around me for as long as I can remember, I never should have signed up for that Tag Battle Competition in Hearthome," said Dawn. "Well Dawn, still as feisty as ever," said Conway, "I like that about you. And who is this?" he asked as he spotted Leaf.

"L-Leaf, Leaf Greene," said the brunette nervously. She felt herself begin to sweat nervously as she felt Conway's eyes roam her body, she felt very uncomfortable and wanted to run as fast as she could to Andrew's room.

"Leaf huh? A pretty name for an even prettier girl," Conway said. If Andrew had said it she would have been blushing, but when Conway said it, it came out as creepy and slimy instead of affectionate and warm.

"T-Thanks," she said, secretly wishing she had worn something over her usual blue tank top as she felt his eyes pay extra attention to her chest, "I have got to get out of here"

"Well Conway, it's been nice to see you but we really have to go," said Dawn as she grabbed Leaf's hand and began walking quickly away. "Dawn wait!" said Conway, "How would you and your friend like to attend dinner with me tomorrow?"

"We can't," said Leaf hurriedly, "We have plans with our boyfriend." "Oh, and who is he?" asked Conway, the two girls detecting a hint of malice in his voice.

"Andrew Townsend!" Leaf yelled, desperate to escape this creep. "You two? Andrew? My dear Dawn, surely you can do better than him. Same goes for you Miss Greene."

"I'll think about it Conway but we really have to go," said Dawn as the two girls sprinted towards the hotel. "Dawn wait!" yelled Conway, but it was no use.

"That weakling has gotten between me and that blue-haired beauty for the last time!" said Conway as he walked towards where he was staying, "If only he hadn't been in Hoenn, Dawn would have surely seen how worthy I am of her. He has been a thorn in my side for too long, I will beat you Andrew Townsend, and Dawn will finally see I am the better man. Such a weakling like you does not deserve the affections of such beautiful women." With that Conway adjusted his glasses and walked away to plot his revenge.

(3 minutes later)

Dawn and Leaf hurtled towards the elevator, pressing the button to the floor Andrew was staying on as fast as they could. Leaf's legs were shaking in fear, and Dawn wasn't doing much better, Conway had seemingly gotten even creepier since she last saw him. As the elevator doors opened the two raced to Andrew's door and knocked frantically on the wood. Seconds later Andrew opened the door, concerned by the frantic pace of the knocking.

"Hey, hey, hey," he said, "Where's the fire? Why do the two of you look like you ran across Sinnoh?"

"Andrew can we come in please?" Leaf begged. Andrew's concern grew as he heard the pleading in her voice and quickly stepped aside, allowing the two girls to race inside. Normally he would be excited if two of his girls came to his room, but there was an urgency in their voices that unnerved him. Flareon and Cinccino, who had been cuddling at the foot of the bed, looked up confused.

Locking the door, Andrew turned around to see Dawn and Leaf sitting on the bed, Leaf looking especially terrified. "Okay what the hell happened? Both of you look like you ran across Sinnoh and Leaf looks like she just got scared by Darkrai."

"We ran into someone on our way here," said Leaf, the fear evident in her voice, "Apparently he knew you and Dawn from Sinnoh. He was so creepy."

"Wait a minute," said Andrew as the gears began turning in his head, the pieces falling into place. "Don't tell me the guy's name was Conway." His suspicions were confirmed when Leaf let out a shiver, "He was spying on us from an alley," said Dawn, "And he seems to have gotten even creepier, if such a thing is possible."

"Where is he?" asked the blonde, anger in his eyes, "I'll kick his ass." Andrew was very protective of all of his girls, and he didn't take kindly to those who looked to steal them from him.

"No need to worry sweetie," said Dawn, "He said he's competing in the Unova League. Just make sure to beat him good. Now I'd like to use your shower if you don't mind, I feel filthy from having that creep spy on us." "Not a problem my sapphire, go on ahead," smiled the blonde.

"Crap, our clean clothes are in our room," said Dawn just before she walked into the bathroom, "I'll be right back." "Flareon, Cinccino, go with her," said Andrew. The two Pokemon nodded and jumped onto the bluenette's shoulders as she walked out and towards her room.

A few minutes later a knock was heard on the door. Leaf's eyes shot towards the door and she let out a whimper. "It's okay Leaf," reassured Andrew as he held her close, "It's just Dawn." Andrew got up and unlocked to door, and sure enough the bluenette was standing there, in her hands were a fresh pair of clothes for both her and Leaf. After a quick kiss Dawn retreated to the bathroom and took a shower. Handing Leaf her clothes Andrew turned around to give the brunette her privacy.

"A-Andrew, y-you can turn around you know," said Leaf shakily, "I don't mind if it's you." Andrew turned around to see the Kanto native in a green set of undergarments. Leaf blushed furiously as she took off her bra and panties, standing naked in front of the love of her life. She let out a giggle as she saw his face tun red and his shorts slightly bulge, it made her happy knowing she could get him like this. "Uh-uh sweetie," she purred as she put on a powder blue set of undergarments and donned a green nightgown, "You have to win your first battle before we go any further." "Tease," muttered the blonde, earning a giggle from Leaf.

"H-Hey Andrew, c-can I sleep here tonight, that guy really freaked me out," said Leaf, her eyes watering slightly. "Of course you can Leaf," smiled the blonde as he climbed into the bed. The Kanto native immediately followed and snuggled as close as she could next to him, shaking slightly. Her shaking stopped when she felt him grip her tightly, kissing her forehead, now she felt safe. "Goodnight Andrew," she whispered, "I love you." "I love you too Leaf, now and forever," whispered the Sinnoh native as he kissed her lovingly.

A few minutes later Dawn emerged from the shower. A smile spread across her face as she saw Leaf resting her head on Andrew's chest, a big smile on the brunette's face as he gently stroked her hair while she slept peacefully. "Room for one more?" she asked. Andrew smiled and scooted over as gently as he could so he wouldn't wake Leaf. Dawn crawled into the bed and like Leaf gripped her lover tightly, sighing happily as she felt him wrap an arm protectively around her waist. "Goodnight my love," she whispered as she kissed the blonde. "Goodnight my sapphire," said Andrew softly as the bluenette drifted off to sleep, a smile on her face.

As the two girls slept Andrew thought about what they had told him. "Conway you better hope you don't face me because I am going to rain hellfire upon you. You scared my girls and now you will pay." He felt something touch his feet and looked down to see Flareon and Cinccino at the foot of the bed getting comfortable. "Goodnight you two," he whispered, the two Pokemon responding by giving their trainer a lick before returning to their spot. Giving both girls a kiss on the forehead he laid his head on the pillow and joined them in sleep.

(The next morning)

Andrew was the first to wake up the next day, smiling as he saw Leaf and Dawn resting their heads on his chest. Both girls looked absolutely angelic in the sunlight and they seemed to radiate beauty. "What ever did I do to deserve such wonderful girls?" he wondered. After a few minutes he felt the two girls shift. "Mmmm, good morning sweetie," mumbled Dawn sleepily. "Good morning my sapphire," whispered Andrew as he kissed the bluenette's forehead. "Good morning my love," whispered Leaf, turning the boy's attention to the brunette. "Good morning my angel," he smiled, earning a blush from the Kanto girl, her heart fluttering as she felt his lips press against her forehead. "So Andrew, are you ready for the League?" asked Leaf.

"You bet Leaf, I'm ready to win this," he said excitedly, earning a giggle from the two girls. "He's so cute when he's fired up like this" they thought. "Something wrong Andrew?" asked Dawn as she realized he was staring at them. "No, nothing, it's just that I think both of you look absolutely stunning in the morning light, your hair shines like the sun and your eyes shimmer like a moonlit lake," said Andrew, causing both girls to bury their heads into his chest to hide their massive blushes. "You're such a dork," said Dawn, "But you're our dork," added Leaf as the two girls crept up and kissed their lover's cheeks.

Once the three had showered Flareon and Cinccino climbed onto Andrew's shoulders and the group left their room to link up with the others. As they were eating, Andrew was looking at his schedule. A malevolent grin soon spread across his face as he found where his match was. Dawn and Leaf also grinned when they saw who their lover would be facing, "Kick his ass sweetie," said Dawn, "Teach that creep a lesson," added Leaf as she saw the words on the paper: Andrew Townsend vs. Conway Kohei, Stadium 7.

(4 hours later)

The gang made their way to the stadium and took their seats, Andrew peeling off towards the locker room. The girls had opted to not wear their outfits today, not wanting to draw Conway's attention.

"Ladies and gentlemen!" a voice boomed, "In the red corner, from the Sinnoh Region we have Conway Kohei!" As his name was mentioned Conway strode out, the group could feel the arrogance radiating from him even when so far away from him. "And in the green corner, from Sandgem Town in the Sinnoh Region, we have the Champion of Hoenn, Kalos, and Sinnoh, Andrew Townsend!" A thunderous applause broke out as Andrew ran out from his end of the field, wearing the outfit he wore during his little concert in Virbank, waving at the crowd as he ran and blowing a kiss to his girls when he spotted them, all of them catching it and holding it close to their hearts.

"Well someone's popular," said Conway arrogantly as he adjusted his glasses. "Surprising considering how weak you are. You may have beaten Cynthia, but that was a one-off."

"Well last time I checked, I decked you in Hoenn. And if I can beat you once I can do it again," retorted Andrew, earning a glare from Conway.

"It's too bad you're going to be going home after this," said Conway, "I'm sure it will sting to be humiliated in front of the world, including Dawn." "You leave her out of this," growled the blonde as he grit his teeth, "She's mine." "Well we'll see what she thinks after I crush you. Slowking come on out!" yelled Conway as the water-type appeared and glared at Andrew.

"Y'know Conway, Dawn told me that someone who looked a lot like you was stalking her and Leaf last night. I don't take kindly to people spying on my girls and scaring the daylights out of them, so I think you need to be taught a lesson. Sawk, let's get stuck in!" yelled Andrew as his blue fighting type appeared. "Really Andrew, a fighting type? You must really be stupid." "You go first then, give it your best shot," smirked Andrew.

"Slowking use Future Sight!" Conway grinned as Slowking glowed white, "Clock is ticking Townsend, better get moving." "Ooohhh, a challenge," said Andrew as he rubbed his hands together in excitement, "Well I accept. Sawk use Poison Jab!" Sawk grinned and hurtled towards Slowking, his fist glowing a sickly purple. "Slowking use Flamethrower!" yelled Conway. "Slide!" shouted Andrew. The blue fighting type slid on the ground, dodging the jet of fire, and as he got up he rammed his fist into Slowking's chin, sending the Water type skyward.

"Now bring him back with Thunder Punch!" roared Andrew as he pointed at the airborne Slowking. The fighting type jumped high into the air and as Slowking reached his apex, Sawk arced his fist, now crackling with electricity, into Slowking's back, sending him crashing into the ground in a cloud of dust and electricity.

As Sawk gracefully landed, he struck a pose, ready to dish out more pain. But as the dust cleared it was revealed Slowking had been knocked out.

"Slowking is unable to battle!" Conway grit his teeth, he was supposed to be wiping the floor with this idiot, instead he had just lost one of his more powerful Pokemon, while Andrew's barely looked tired. He was bring humiliated in front of everyone, and more importantly, in front of Dawn.

"So you managed to take down Slowking," said Conway as he returned the downed Pokemon, "No matter, that was luck, the only thing you have." Conway smirked as he saw his opponent grit his teeth, he had struck a nerve. "You know Townsend, last night I heard Dawn talking about some outfits. Did she bring back that wonderful cheerleader getup?" Andrew was barely listening, he was busy trying to keep a lid on the anger building inside of him. "She always looked stunning in that outfit, I can only imagine how she looks now. She's going to look even better in it when I crush you and she and the others start cheering for me."

By this point, Andrew was furious. His right eye twitched heavily as he struggled to not tackle Conway and beat him into a blood-soaked pulp. His friends watched as he simmered, all thinking the same thing, "Conway has just signed his own death warrant."

As Andrew's rage grew, he suddenly remembered all Dawn had said, how she would never leave him, how much she loved him. Taking a deep breath, he regained control of himself and turned to the referee, "I forfeit Sawk." Andrew's group saw the look in his eyes and knew what was coming, their friend had snapped.

Conway stepped back as he felt the air around him drop several degrees from the icy cold glare he was getting from Andrew's cadet blue eyes. "Let me tell you something Conway," he spoke, the lack of emotion unnerving many in the stands. "You fail to recognize the power I possess. I am not the person whose back you and the others stabbed all those years ago, yet your hubris prevents you from seeing the truth. Hubris has been the downfall of many people throughout history," he said as he grabbed a red and black Pokeball, a chill running down Conway's spine as Andrew looked him straight in the eye, "And you just became one of them."

Without another word Andrew clicked the button on the strange looking Pokeball. Everyone gasped as the light died down to reveal Reshiram. Up in the stands Hilda's jaw dropped, her crush possessed the Being of Truth, while Lance and Tobias looked on equally stunned.

"What do you require Andrew?" asked the massive dragon. The boy simply pointed at Conway, who had called out his Aggron, and spoke, "Show him the truth of my power," the lack of emotion in his voice made everyone, even his friends, pale slightly in fear, even Reshiram was slightly unnerved, but nodded.

Within seconds, Reshiram had opened his mouth and unleashed a torrent of light blue flames. Aggron didn't even have a chance to roar in pain as he was knocked out instantly.

"A-A-Aggron is unable to b-battle, R-Reshiram w-wins." said the official, stunned and slightly scared by the sheer power of the attack. "That was Blue Fire in case your wondering Conway," said Andrew as he folded his arms, the emotion returning to his voice, "Forfeit while you can and save your dignity."

Conway looked down at the Pokeball in his hands, and like Brendan, refused to see the writing on the wall. "NO! I WILL DESTROY YOU! YOUR FRIENDS WILL SEE WHAT A PITIFUL EXCUSE FOR A TRAINER YOU ARE!" he roared as he summoned Dusknoir. "Dusknoir use Trick Room!" he ordered quickly, causing the ghost type to glow pink for a split second, raising his speed.

Andrew simply sighed, "I tried reasoning with you Conway, but your arrogance blinds you. You are simply proving my point."

"WILL YOU SHUT IT ALREADY!" yelled Conway, he would suffer no challengers in his quest to have Dawn for himself. "Dusknoir destroy this idiot and use Ice Punch!"

"Draconic Divebomb" said the blonde calmly. A cloud of dust rose up as Reshiram leaped off the ground and soared high into the sky. Seconds later he reappeared, his tail glowing a bright orange, indicating his Overdrive Mode had been activated, and his body was surrounded in a purple aura. "Dusknoir dodge!" yelled Conway frantically, but it was too late, Dusknoir was too slow, even with Trick Room in effect. Seconds later a mighty explosion shook the stadium as Reshiram slammed into Dusknoir like a dragon-powered comet. As the dust settled there was no debate as to who had won.

"Dusknoir is unable to battle, Reshiram and Andrew win." Everyone was silent, awestruck by the sheer power of the attack.

As Conway returned his downed ghost type he heard a voice inside his head. It was cold and emotionless, but it spoke with authority and it made him pale in terror.

"Alright you son of a Bellsprout, you listen and you listen good, because I am only going to say this once. This is Andrew by the way, I am speaking to you telepathically. Now if I ever, and I mean EVER, hear or catch you spying on Dawn or any of my girls again, I will beat you so severely you will be lucky if you'll be able to walk afterwards. Nod if you understand." Conway nodded frantically, every other part of his body was frozen in terror. "Good, I'm glad we've reached an understanding. Now get out of my sight."

Conway was off the field in seconds, a trail of dust left in his wake. Andrew turned to Reshiram, who had seen and heard the exchange. "Thank you Reshiram, I apologize if my coldness unnerved you." "I can't say I blame you, I do not have much sympathy for those who refuse to see the truth. And he certainly did not see it." Andrew smiled softly, "Thank you Reshiram, I appreciate your assistance," he said as he returned the white dragon.

Up in the Champions' Box, Hilda, Lance, and Tobias watched as the boy returned the Being of Truth. Hilda had a slight blush on her face, "Why does he have to look so damn hot?"

"Well Hilda, you best be prepared," said Lance, "Hurricane Andrew has you in his crosshairs."

"You think!?" exclaimed the brunette, "He has fucking Reshiram! And his past battles have shown he has at least three other legendaries! I am beyond screwed!" "I wouldn't worry Hilda, I highly doubt he'll use those on you."

"What do you mean? Why wouldn't he?" asked Hilda as she cocked an eyebrow. "Think about it Hilda, Andrew has only used legendaries on those who have attracted his ire. He's not gonna use them to breeze through," said Lance, glaring at Tobias as he said the last part, "Put simply, if you want him to use legendaries against you, you're really gonna have to piss him off. And if yesterday is anything to go off of, I think he likes you."

"Wait what do you-?" Hilda cut herself off as she realized Lance had seen her hanging out with Andrew the other day and blushed furiously. "Oh come on Hilda, I could see it clear as day, you're absolutely head over heels for him. Plus every time he was on the battlefield you stared at him as if he was a god." said Lance, laughing slightly. The two then noticed Tobias had left, "He is so fucked when Andrew comes for him," chuckled Lance.

"Okay, okay," said Hilda, her face still red, "You're right, I like, no, I love him. I love him so much. B-but what if he doesn't feel that way?" she asked, her eyes beginning to water.

"C'mon Hilda," said Lance as he put a hand on the brunette's shoulder, "When you were hanging out yesterday I saw him, he had this look in his eyes. It was a look of longing, of affection. Hilda, he is completely in love with you. And if he's dating your best friend, I doubt any of his girls would not want you to join them."

"You're right," said Hilda, the determination evident as she spoke, "I can't hold back any longer. He has to know." Lance simply smiled, "Good luck Hilda, now go get your man."

Meanwhile

Andrew, Dawn, and Leaf were walking back to the hotel, the two females hanging off his arms.

"I'm not entirely sure if that was necessary Andrew," said Dawn. "Plus seeing you all cold like that was kinda scary," added Leaf. The Sinnoh boy sighed and pulled the two girls as close to him as he could.

"I'm sorry I scared you. But I am not sorry for what I did. Conway had to learn that you two are mine, and mine only. I want to be there to protect you from harm and to show the world that you are mine. I showed Kenny, I showed Trip, I will show everyone in the entire world if I have to. I love both of you and I will suffer no challengers for your hearts."

"Didn't know you were so possessive," joked Leaf, while Dawn giggled. "Well I always protect which is mine," grinned Andrew. "We're your's and we always will be," whispered the bluenette before she jumped up and gave her lover a searing kiss. After a minute of intense making out Dawn broke the kiss and let Leaf have a turn. "Dawn's right," she whispered, "I'm your's forever, and I'm happy with that, we all are." Like Dawn she leapt up and kissed her love passionately, moaning slightly as she inserted her tongue into his mouth and the battle for dominance began.

"Well if you two are done," said a feminine voice, causing Andrew and Leaf to break off their kiss and blush a dark red. A massive smile grew on Andrew's face as he realized the voice was from Hilda. "Hey Hilda, how ya been?" chirped the blonde as he forced his blush down. "I'm doing great," she said, "That was quite the performance you put on back there." "Oh that, he was someone I've butted heads with since my first journey in Sinnoh. Absolute creep."

"Using a legendary to get your point across eh Andrew?" she teased, "You're crazy." Andrew's face went red as she leaned in and whispered, "But it was kinda hot."

Dawn and Leaf looked at each other and giggled, their next "sister" was on the way. "Well we have to go Andrew, we'll meet you back at the hotel. Have fun sweetie!" said Dawn as she and Leaf kissed his cheeks and walked away.

"Why do they have to be so damn perfect?" sighed Andrew happily as he watched them leave. He was snapped from his thoughts by Hilda clearing her throat, "S-So, w-wanna hang out?"

"Hell yeah I do," said Andrew excitedly, earning a giggle from the brunette, "Jeez he's so cute when he's excited like this."

(2 hours later)

Andrew and Hilda were walking back to Hilda's hotel after having dinner. As they reached the door Andrew turned to face the brunette, "Well Hilda, have a good night."

"Andrew wait!" she said as he began to walk away, "I have to let him know, I can't take it anymore."

"Something wrong Hilda?" he asked.

"Andrew," she said softly, "When I first met you I thought you were some prick who couldn't pay attention. But there was something I felt, something that made me realize I couldn't stay mad at you, something I never felt around any other guy. And when you returned I couldn't help but smile. When you said you wanted to hang out back in Sinnoh I was so happy. I felt like I could fly every time our hands touched, I feel warm and fuzzy whenever you give me that dumb, goofy smile of your's. What I'm trying to say is that I like... no, I don't like you. Andrew Townsend, I love you, I am madly in love with you!" she said, shouting the last part, tears of emotion trickling out of her eyes.

"I can't believe it," was what she heard, and it made her heart sink, she had opened her heart to him and he rejected her. But just before she was about to devolve into a sobbing wreck she felt a pair of hands gently cup her cheeks. Seconds later she felt something on her lips; she opened her eyes to see Andrew's face inches from her own, and he was kissing her. As the realization hit her she slowly closed her eyes and wrapped her arms around his neck to deepen the kiss. As the two broke she was left red-faced and panting.

"Hilda," he said as he put his right hand on her cheek, "When I first met you I was blown away by how beautiful you looked, that's why I didn't respond when we first met. As we shook hands I felt a spark in my heart. As the years went on that spark ignited, and it turned into love. Hilda Toko, I love you and I can't believe it's taken me this long to realize it."

Hilda's heart was doing backflips, he returned her feelings. She lunged at him and pulled him into another searing kiss, knocking his cap off as she ran her hands through his hair, tears of joy flowing out of her eyes.

As they broke she rested her head against his chest, loving the sound of his heartbeat. "C-Can you spend the night?" she asked quietly, "I don't want to be away from you any more." "Of course I can Hilda," he said softly as the two walked towards the brunette's room holding hands.

(3 minutes later)

The couple had made their way to Hilda's suite and were getting settled in. Being the Champion her room was quite lavish and large, easily as big as three regular rooms.

As Andrew stepped out of the shower, he felt a pair of eyes gazing at him. He turned to see Hilda staring at him, biting her lower lip and her face crimson. "Like what you see?" he asked jokingly as he made sure to "accidentally" flex his arms, causing the brunette to moan lightly as she struggled to keep her hormones in check. The Unovan had a pair of running shorts that went halfway down her thighs and a large white t-shirt that went past her waist, her hair was undone, though it curled slightly at the ends. Andrew had a blue t-shirt and black gym shorts, years of travel had taught him to always have a spare set of clothes on hand.

As he crawled into bed Hilda snuggled up next to him. As he gripped her his hand lightly grazed her stomach, causing her to giggle slightly. "Don't you dare..." said Hilda as Andrew grew a devilish grin. "STOOOOPPPP!" squealed the brunette as Andrew began tickling her mercilessly, shrieking in laughter.

"Tell me you love me," grinned the blonde. "ALRRRIIIIIGHHHTT! I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU!" she shrieked, her declaration punctuated by fits of laughter. Hearing this Andrew stopped and let her catch her breath. His tickling had left him hovering over Hilda, staring her in the face. Seconds later he leaned in and kissed her passionately, quickly devolving into a make-out session.

As they broke he looked her in the eyes and saw them glazed over with lust. "A-Andrew, I-I... I need you," she whispered, "I've been feeling tension between us since we first hung out in Sinnoh and it's driving me insane. Please, make love to me."

Sitting her up Andrew looked her in the eye. "Hilda, are you sure, are you comfortable with this? I don't want to rush this, but if you're ready, then I am too." She nodded, "I'm ready, I've been ready since I realized I loved you." "And when was that?" he asked, smirking. "I've forgotten, it was so long ago," smiled Hilda.

Lemon Begin

Andrew smiled and leaned over and gently crushed his lips against Hilda's, the brunette moaning slightly as she felt his tongue slip into her mouth and quickly overpower her own. The two soon fell down back onto the bed, Hilda on top as Andrew ran his fingers through her long brown hair. The two were panting heavily as they separated, the need for air was too great. Hilda felt her legs get slick as Andrew began kissing up and down the side of her face, nibbling her earlobe and peppering her jawline with light pecks, she shivered as she felt his hands slip underneath her shirt and begin exploring her back and sides, though they stayed away from her bra and panties.

After a few minutes of him gently caressing her and lavishing kisses onto her skin Hilda pulled off her shirt to reveal a light pink bra. "Like what you see?" she asked coyly as she saw him hungrily gaze at her body. "Well I think you've earned it," she whispered as she unhooked her top, letting her D-cup breasts bounce free, "You can do whatever you want with them," she purred.

Seconds later she was tackled by the blonde who quickly enveloped her right nipple with his mouth and gently biting down on the pink nub, while his right hand gently grabbed the orb of flesh on her left, pinching the nub attached to it. Hilda let out a long moan as bolts of pleasure coursed through her. "Yes, suck on them," she purred as she ran her hand through his hair, "They belong to you, only you can see them." For the next few minutes Andrew tended to her luscious breasts, alternating between the two squishy orbs, Hilda moaning as she squirmed in pleasure.

Coming up for air he smirked when he saw the pleasured look on Hilda's face. "Want to continue?" he whispered, to which the panting brunette simply nodded. She whimpered in anticipation as he gently ran one of his hands across her inner thighs and kissed his way down her body towards her shorts. Deciding to tease her further he continued to caress her slender legs and kiss them lightly, the brunette whimpering as small jolts of pleasure emanated from where his lips met her skin. "Andrew, please, hurry," she pleaded, trying desperately to get his head as close to her crotch as she could.

Deciding he had teased her enough he pulled off her shorts to reveal a light pink thong, smirking as he saw a massive wet patch in the center. But he couldn't resist teasing her just a little more and gently breathed on the piece of fabric, earning a gasp from Hilda as she squirmed desperately. "Andrew, please, I beg you," she whimpered, the anticipation was driving her crazy. "As you wish," he smirked as he pulled off the piece of fabric to reveal her womanhood, thoroughly soaked from his teasing.

For a few seconds, Hilda felt nothing except the cold air flow against her slit. She was torn from her thoughts with a squeal as Andrew suddenly began his assault, starting by lightly licking her entrance and the surrounding folds. Every few seconds he would break off and simply breathe on her flower, causing her to spasm in pleasure. "MY HEAD'S GOING BLANK!" she cried as she felt his tongue snake its way into her cavern, "I'M GOING TO LOSE MY MIND!" Her eyes bulged and she let out a scream as she felt Andrew lightly pinch her clit, a powerful orgasm washing over her seconds later.

For a whole minute Hilda simply lay there, panting as her hold on reality returned, shivering as she felt Andrew drink the juices that had flowed out of her. "A-Andrew..." she breathed, "That was incredible, but now let me return the favor." Finding the strength within her she sat up and pushed her lover down and crawled on top of him, her hand snaking its way down his body and rubbing his trapped erection through his clothes. "Mmmm, big boy," she purred as she felt something large and warm through his clothes. As she took off his shorts and his boxers she gasped in shock as his member swung free. "I-I-It's so big," she whispered, her eyes lighting up, awestruck by the sheer size and thickness of the tool in front of her.

"Think you can handle it?" smirked the blonde. Hilda said nothing and began pumping up and down his shaft, enveloping the head with her mouth. "Shit that's good," he breathed, spurring the brunette on further as she used all of her willpower to slowly but surely take the entirety of the blonde's member into her mouth. "He's the perfect man: a wonderful personality, a sexy body, and this monster. No wonder Rosa's so in love with him." she thought as she began to slowly bob her head. Andrew went cross-eyed as he felt Hilda wrap her prodigious breasts around the portion of his member not in her mouth, her movements causing the orbs of flesh to rub against his throbbing tool. "H-Hilda, I-I'm close..." he managed to get out through gritted teeth. Hilda simply moaned and sped up, indicating where she wanted him to unload. Seconds later Andrew's body went taut as he fired his juices into the brunette's mouth. Several seconds later an audible pop was heard as Hilda removed his member from her mouth and kissed him, combining their juices to create a wonderful mixture.

As Hilda broke the kiss she laid down on her back and looked at Andrew expectantly. "Are you sure you want this Hilda?" he asked. "Please Andrew, I've waited long enough." she said as she spread her legs to reveal her waiting maidenhood. Kissing her on her forehead, Andrew crawled on top of her and slowly pushed himself in, Hilda gasping as she felt him split her apart. Seconds later he felt his tip touch her barrier. "You're my first Andrew, and I want you to be my only," she whispered shyly. "Take me," she whispered as she wrapped her arms around his neck and steeled herself. Seconds later she felt Andrew pull back and thrust his way through her barrier, whimpering as a searing pain shot through her. Andrew lay deathly still, kissing her in an attempt to lessen the pain, every whimper she made was like a dagger to his heart.

A minute later Hilda felt the pain subside. Wanting to test the waters she gave her hips a roll, and let out a moan as she felt only pleasure. "I-I can't believe it," she said as tears rolled down her eyes, "We've become one, I'm finally your's. I'm so happy," she said as tears of joy poured down her cheeks. Andrew caressed her face, wiping away her tears with his thumb, and smiled, "I'm so happy too, I love you Hilda and I am going to show you how much I love you."

As he finished he began to slowly move in and out, lightly moaning as he did so, "Arceus she's so tight!" he thought. As he reached a steady rhythm, the room was filled with moans and shouts as both teens were enveloped in a feeling of pure ecstasy. "Hilda you feel so good, you're so tight," Andrew grunted, "You're body is a dream." "You feel so good too!" squealed the brunette, "I love it! I LOVE YOU! MORE! MORE!" she cried. She yelped as she felt his hands grab her wildly bouncing breasts and flip her to where she was on top, "YES!" she screamed as she felt his member scrape against new nerves, "I'M GOING TO GO CRAZY!" Seconds later her eyes bulged and she let out a shriek as her second orgasm of the night crashed over her, falling over and landing her head against Andrew's collarbone, the blonde slowing down to help her ride out her high.

As she came down, the brunette realized that Andrew hadn't come with her and that he was still hard as steel. "Y-You didn't come yet did you?" she said, giggling as he shook his head. "Well c'mon then stud" she purred as she faced her rear towards him, "I want you to fuck me good tonight. Don't worry, I'm protected." She giggled further as she felt his shaft begin pistoning in and out of her cavern again, "So big," she cooed.

Within a minute Andrew was hammering away, Hilda a moaning wreck as she felt his member slam against her core. "MORE! FUCK ME MORE!" she squealed. "Who would have guessed that the Champion of Unova could be so naughty," smirked Andrew. "YES! I'M A NAUGHTY GIRL! I'LL BE AS NAUGHTY AS YOU WANT!" she shrieked, moaning as she felt Andrew's hand slap against her shapely rear, "YEAH THAT'S RIGHT! SPANK ME FOR BEING SUCH A BAD GIRL!" Hilda's face was one of pure ecstasy as Andrew's shaft assaulted her moist cavern, while his hand slammed into her rear.

"Fuck, I'm getting close," grunted the blonde after several minutes. "INSIDE! PLEASE RELEASE INSIDE!" screamed the brunette. "Naughty girl," he whispered into her ear, and this sent Hilda over the edge. She screamed as the most powerful orgasm of her life slammed into her, almost causing her to pass out from the sheer pleasure it brought. Her eyes bulged as Andrew followed suit, his release brought on by her walls clamping down tightly onto his shaft. Hilda let out a groan of displeasure as she felt him slowly pull out of her. She rolled over exhausted, her head resting on Andrew's chest, the two teens panting heavily.

Lemon End

"Arceus Andrew, that was... incredible," panted Hilda, "I love you, I love you so much." "I love you too Hilda Toko, now and forever," breathed Andrew as he stroked her soft hair. A few seconds later he felt her breathing pattern change, indicating she had fallen asleep. Giving the brunette a loving kiss on the forehead, Andrew laid back and let sleep claim him.

(The next day)

Hilda slowly opened her eyes as the morning light reached her. She let out a sigh as she felt so warm and comfortable, wherever she was, she never wanted to leave this position. As her vision became less blurry, she realized she was resting her head against Andrew's muscular chest. "Last night was amazing. First I confess to the man of my dreams, then I gave him my first time. He's made me so happy." She was shaken from her thoughts when she felt him stir. She felt her heart melt as he looked at her and smiled warmly, that dumb, goofy smile that she fell hopelessly in love with.

"Good morning my love," whispered the brunette. "Good morning angel," he whispered as he kissed her lovingly. "Last night was amazing," sighed the brunette happily. "I'm glad you think so, now that we're together we can have many more nights like that." "Mmmm, I'd like that," giggled Hilda.

Once they had showered and eaten they made their way to Andrew's hotel to meet the others, Hilda hanging off his arm, a sight that earned glares from dozens of incredibly jealous males.

As Andrew walked through the doors he was glomped seconds later by the girls. "Where were you?" asked Cynthia worriedly. "Oh I think I know where he was," giggled Georgia as she spotted Hilda. The girls looked up and looked at their lover expectantly upon seeing the brown-haired champion. "Georgia's right," he said as he wrapped his arms around Hilda with a smile, "Hilda has joined our family." Rosa let out a squeal as she ran over and embraced her friend. "Arceus Andrew," said Lucas, "How many girls are you gonna get?" The blonde simply shrugged, "Honestly Lucas I have no fucking clue, but they're happy, so I am too."

"So Lucas, who you facing today?" asked Andrew as they looked at the schedule. "Says here I'm fighting this guy named Virgil." "Ash told me about that guy, apparently he fights with a team entirely comprised of Eeveelutions." "That's going to be interesting, who you got?" "I'm facing Nate," said Andrew, causing Rosa and Hilda's ears to perk up at the mention of their friend.

(4 hours later)

Andrew and Nate stood opposite of each other on the battlefield. Dawn, Rosa, and Leaf were in the stands with the others in their outfits, feeling more comfortable now that Conway had been dealt with. Hilda had also joined them to cheer for her love.

"Well Andrew," said Nate, "We meet again, and it seems you've stolen Hilda's heart too." "What can I say? I'm popular," joked Andrew, earning a laugh from the Unovan. "Don't think I'll go easy on you just because you're my best friend's boyfriend," said Nate as he pulled out a Pokeball. "C'mon Nate, give me hell," grinned Andrew.

"This four on four battle between Andrew Townsend of Sandgem Town in Sinnoh and Nate Kyohei of Aspertia City in Unova will now begin!"

"Arcanine let's crank up the heat!" "Luxray let's bring the thunder!" Arcanine growled at Luxray, but quickly shrank back as the blue electric type snarled angrily at him

"C'mon Arcanine," encouraged Nate, "We can beat him!" The canine pulled himself together and prepared for battle. "Great! Now use Fire Blast!" "Luxray get in close and use Night Slash!" As Arcanine shot a jet of searing flames at Luxray, the electric type gracefully jumped out of the way and sprinted over to the canine and slashed him across the face with his razor-sharp claws, a yelp echoing through the stadium as the claws bit deep into Arcanine's skin.

"Arcanine shake it off and use Iron Tail!" "Luxray it's time to dazzle! Turbine!" The lion grinned and he curled into a ball as Arcanine sprinted towards him, his tail glowing silver, and began spinning. The audience watched in awe as electricity began arcing off of Luxray, slowly going farther and farther. "Arcanine watch out!" yelled Nate frantically, but his Iron Tail meant he was a living lightning rod, and yelped as electricity coursed through him. "Now Luxray! Discharge!" With a deafening roar Luxray uncurled and fired a massive bolt of lightning, boosted by the electricity in the air, Arcanine shrieking in pain before fainting.

"Arcanine is unable to battle." "Great job Luxray," praised Andrew as he lightly scratched behind the lion's ears, causing him to descend into a fit of nuzzling and loud purring. "You did well Arcanine, get some rest," said Nate as he returned the downed Fire type. "That's a strong Luxray you have Andrew." "Thanks, he was my first capture, been with me since I started."

"Well let's see how you handle this guy! Lucario let's rock!" "Gallade let's make some noise!"

"Alright Lucario let's kick this off with Shadow Claw!" "Counter with Fire Punch!" As Lucario charged Gallade with his fist glowing a dark purple, the Psychic type raced forwards, his fist wreathed in red flames. An explosion rippled out as the two attacks met with a crash, the dust clearing to show the two lightly bruised from the super effective attacks.

"Gallade use Low Sweep quick!" ordered Andrew. In the blink of an eye, Gallade had swept his foot underneath Lucario's legs, knocking him to the ground. "Now use Psycho Cut!" Lucario roared in pain as Gallade swiped his arm across the jackal's face, though it wasn't devastating since Psychic moves weren't super effective against him.

"C'mon Lucario! I believe in you!" yelled Nate. With a grunt, Lucario pushed himself up and roared defiantly at Gallade. "ALRIGHT!" shouted Nate, "Now use Blaze Kick!" With blinding speed, Lucario slammed his foot into the side of Gallade's face with a flaming roundhouse kick, sending the Psychic type sprawling. "Now use Close Combat!" As the jackal lunged at the downed Gallade, the Psychic type looked done for.

"Gallade use Synchronoise!" yelled Andrew. With blinding speed, Gallade jumped up and dodged Lucario's attack, landing several feet behind the jackal. With a grin, he unleashed a green shockwave that washed over Lucario, who roared in pain as the attack did heavy damage since he shared a type with Gallade (A/N: if you didn't know, "Synchronoise" does double damage if the target and the user share a type, Gallade and Lucario are both part Fighting type, so the bonus is applied), and seconds later he crumpled to the ground, swirls in his eyes.

"Lucario is unable to battle." "You did well buddy, get some rest," sighed Nate as he returned the jackal, smiling as he saw Andrew and Gallade embrace.

"Well Nate, I'm ahead by two, think you can come back?" Nate simply grinned, "Oh you ain't seen nothing yet. Druddigon you're up!" he yelled as the massive blue and red dragon appeared with a loud roar. "Try this one on for size then! Deathclaw the battlefield calls your name!" yelled Andrew, the entire stadium shaking as the Salamence let out a deafening roar, even Druddigon stepped back slightly in fear. To everyone's surprise, Deathclaw flew over to Nate and after sniffing the boy, started licking him.

"Well someone likes you," smiled the blonde as he made a clicking sound, "Come here girl," he said sweetly, causing the dragoness to fly back to her beloved master, purring loudly as he scratched behind her ears. It was strange, seeing a Pokemon known for its violent and destructive habits act so docile and affectionate, but it was heartwarming to see such love between trainer and Pokemon.

"Okay girl," said Andrew, "we got a battle to get to," he said as Deathclaw happily scarfed down an Oran Berry he had tossed her. Once she was done she focused on her opponent, snorting in challenge.

"Okay Deathclaw let's start this with Dragon Pulse!" shouted Andrew as Deathclaw opened her mouth to fire a beam of green energy. "Druddigon dodge and use Gunk Shot!" Druddigon barely managed to dodge the draconic attack and flew up, opening his mouth to spit out a large wad of purplish goo. "Deathclaw dodge and take flight!" As Deathclaw spread her wings and took off, the wad of sludge slammed into the ground harmlessly with a disgusting splat, coating an area of the field in goo. "Druddigon after that Salamence, knock her out of the sky with Dragon Rush!" "Deathclaw dive towards the goo!" yelled Andrew. Deathclaw looked confused, but knew her trainer had thought of something. Nodding, she peeled off into a dive towards the area soaked in sludge, Druddigon right behind her.

"Deathclaw level out!" shouted Andrew. Just as Deathclaw was about to crash into the ground, she angled her wings and swooped gracefully over the ground. Druddigon, however, wasn't so lucky, and crashed into the ground, sending rocks and sludge flying. "Gross," thought Andrew as some of the goo flew past him, but he soon grinned as he saw Druddigon get up, a thin film of goo coating parts of him.

"Deathclaw now use Flamethrower full blast!" roared Andrew. Deathclaw complied and opened her mouth to unleash a torrent of searing flames. As the flames reached Druddigon the goo on him ignited, enveloping parts of him in even more intense flames, the dragon roaring in pain as the fire licked at his skin. As the flames petered out Druddigon was panting heavily and was severely bruised. Weighing his options, Nate spoke, "I forfeit Druddigon, he can't go any further." As he returned his dragon, he heard Deathclaw roar in triumph.

"Well Andrew you've forced me to my last Pokemon, you've certainly proven yourself." "You aren't so bad either Nate, Lucario gave Gallade run for his money, not many trainers can say that."

"Emboar it's time to make out stand!" yelled Nate as his starter appeared and cracked his knuckles in challenge. "Tyranitar let's end this!" yelled Andrew as the hulking green rock type appeared. Andrew wasted no time and pressed the stone on his wristband, enveloping Tyranitar in a bright pink light. "So this is Mega-Evolution, incredible" thought Nate as he watched in awe as Mega Tyranitar appeared, roaring a challenge to Emboar.

"Tyranitar let's go on the offensive. Use Water Pulse!" Before Nate could even react Emboar roared in pain as a jet of water slammed into him for heavy damage, a cloud of steam soon swirling around him. "Emboar snap out of it and use Brick Break!" "Counter with Dragon Tail!" yelled Andrew as Emboar charged the green Pokemon with a fist glowing a bright white. Tyranitar swung his tail, now wreathed in purple energy, and collided with Emboar, the two attacks cancelling out.

"Gotta be careful," thought Nate, "If I want to do any serious damage I need to get in close, but I don't know how long Emboar will last against a Mega Evolution." "Emboar use Earthquake!" Tyranitar tumbled to the ground as Emboar slammed his foot into the earth, causing the area to be shaken. "Now use Hammer Arm!" yelled Nate, seizing the opportunity.

"Tyranitar!" yelled Andrew, "Wrestle!" Tyranitar grinned and as Emboar brought his arm down, the green rock type grabbed it and pulled the fire type in, the two Pokemon rolling around as they wrestled for dominance, while the audience looked on amused. Eventually Tyranitar managed to pin Emboar in place. "Now use Water Pulse full power!" roared Andrew. With a grin, Tyranitar opened his mouth and fired a point blank jet of water straight into Emboar's face, enveloping the two in a cloud of steam. "EMBOAR!" yelled Nate worriedly.

As the steam cleared it was revealed that Tyranitar had won, his foot on an unconscious Emboar's stomach, smirking proudly.

"Emboar is unable to battle, which means Tyranitar and Andrew win!"

Seconds later the stadium erupted in cheers, Andrew's group being the loudest. As the two trainers returned their respective Pokemon they shook hands. "Great job Andrew," said Nate, "You go on and win this whole thing." "You bet Nate," grinned Andrew, "You're welcome in Sandgem Town any time." "Take care of Rosa and Hilda for me," he said, smiling weakly. "Don't you worry about a thing Nate, I'll take care of them, I love them and I'd do anything to see them happy." "I'll hold you to that," smiled Nate.

As the two boys left the arena, Andrew was tackled by Hilda. "THAT WAS SO COOL!" she squealed. "Glad you liked it angel," he said, earning a blush from the brunette. "Hey Nate," she said as she hugged her childhood friend. "Hey Hilda, how's Andrew treating you?" Hilda simply smiled and grabbed the blonde's arm, "He's been wonderful so far, he's made me so happy." Nate smiled, "Well that's great, if he mistreats you let me know, I'll kick his ass, same goes for you Rosa." The two brunette simply giggled.

"Well the whole gang's almost here," said Rosa, "Anyone seen Hilbert?"

"Someone call my name?" said a voice nearby, the group turned to see a boy in a light blue vest and a cap similar to Hilda's only his was red. "HILBERT!" squealed Rosa as she ran over and hugged her friend. "Hey Rosa, how ya been?" he asked. "Oh I've been wonderful. I'm here to cheer on my boyfriend." "Boyfriend? You and Nate get together?" "No," she said as she walked over to Andrew. "Hilbert, meet Andrew Townsend, my boyfriend."

Hilbert's jaw dropped, his childhood friend was dating a Champion. "Surprised Hilbert?" giggled the brunette, "I hoped you would be." The boy then noticed the group of people they were with. "Hey Nate, good to see ya," he said as the two boys embraced in manly hug, "Good to see you too buddy." "Sorry about Rosa," said Hilbert sympathetically. Nate simply smiled, "It's alright, they're perfect for each other anyway," earning a smile from Rosa and Andrew.

"Hilda? Is that you?" he asked as he turned his gaze to the cap wearing girl. "Yep!" she chirped, "Congrats on being Unova champ!" said Hilbert as he hugged her, "Thanks Hilbert." "So, you found anyone?" he asked, Andrew had a sinking feeling in his gut as he sensed a glimmer of hope in the boy's voice. Hilda simply blushed and walked over to Andrew, kissing his cheek. "Yeah, I have. Rosa and I share him, as do those other girls," she said pointing to the large group of females who waved. "That's great Hilda," he said, "Hey I gotta go, I'll see you around."

Before anyone could say anything he turned around and sprinted away, but not before Andrew saw tears in his eyes. "Not again.." he sighed. "What's wrong?" asked Hilda worriedly. "I think you just broke Hilbert's heart," sighed Nate, "He's liked you for a while now. I know you've told me you don't feel that way about him, but I couldn't bring myself to tell him." "Oh Arceus," said Hilda, her eyes watering, "What have I done? I don't want to lose him, he's too good a friend." Andrew quickly pulled Hilda into his arms as she began sobbing at the thought of losing one of her best friends. "It's okay Hilda," soothed Andrew as he stroked her hair, "We just need to explain to him. If he truly loves you, he will see how happy you are and let us be together." Even Rosa was saddened, worried she might lose one of her best friends as well, and began crying as well. "Come on guys," Andrew said turning to the group, "Let's head back to the hotel." "I'll see you guys later," said Nate, "I'll come with you when you want to talk to Hilbert, I can vouch for you, I can see how happy all of you are with him." "Thanks Nate," smiled the Sinnoh native, "That means a lot."

The group walked into the hotel as the sun was setting, forming a circle around Hilda, not wanting her to be seen with Andrew just yet, and escorted her, along with Rosa and Andrew, to his room. "They'll be fine," reassured Andrew as he turned to the other girls, who looked worriedly at their "sisters", "I'll talk to Hilbert in the morning, and if I can't reach him, I'm sure Nate can."

As the others left Andrew went back into his room and changed into his sleepwear. Hilda and Rosa had changed as well and calmed down, but were still sad. Seeing their faces so downcast broke Andrew's heart, his heart ached with each sniffle they made. "It's going to be okay girls," said Andrew softly as he embraced them. "I-I h-hope so," sniffled Hilda as fresh tears rolled down her cheeks. Each tear that rolled down Hilda's beautiful face was like a dagger in Andrew's heart. "Oh Hilda," he said softly as he cupped her cheek and ran his thumb across her face to wipe her tears away, "Don't cry."

"I-I d-don't want to l-lose him," she sobbed. "It's going to be okay Hilda," he reassured. "I just hope he doesn't do anything stupid. I don't want to lose you either," said the brunette, "I love you and I want to spend the rest of my life with you," she said before breaking down again, this time at the thought of losing the man of her dreams, even Rosa was brought to tears by this thought.

Hilda was pulled from her thoughts as Andrew captured her lips in a gentle and loving kiss, wrapping her arms around his neck to deepen the liplock. As the two broke he moved over to Rosa and did the same thing. Fireworks went off in Rosa's head as the love of her life kissed her lovingly. As they broke Andrew spoke, "I'm sure that will not happen. But if it does, I will do whatever it takes to protect both of you. I love both of you with all of my heart and soul, and I want you to be happy. All we can do is explain to Hilbert and hope he understands. Now let's get some sleep."

As the two girls snuggled up to their lover they gripped him tightly, sighing happily as he gripped them in return, both girls felt safe in his arms and never wanted to leave. Pulling the covers over them Andrew laid his head back and let sleep claim him.

(Meanwhile)

In a hotel less than a mile away from where Andrew was, Hilbert was in his room. His eyes were red and bloodshot from his heavy sobbing. Seeing Hilda with that guy put him in a black mood and left him devastated. He had been hoping the Vertress Conference would be his chance to confess to her, but it seems she was already taken. "I don't care who he is," said Hilbert, jealousy and anger building within him, "I WILL crush him, Hilda will see I'm the better man for her."

(The next day)

Andrew and the others were in the cafeteria eating their breakfast and going over their schedules. Lucas had managed to hang on against Virgil to advance to the quarterfinals and was facing some guy named Sho. "Aw fuck," muttered Andrew as he looked at his schedule. Rosa and Hilda looked worriedly as they saw the name of Andrew's next opponent: "Andrew Townsend vs. Hilbert Blackwater"

(4 Hours Later)

Hilbert and Andrew were facing each other on the battlefield. Andrew's look was one of friendliness, while Hilbert glared murderously at his opponent, "I am going to crush this person for stealing Hilda from me, Champion or not"

"This five on five battle between Hilbert Blackwater of Nuvema Town and Andrew Townsend of Sandgem Town in Sinnoh will now commence!"

"Archeops come on out!" yelled Nate as the colorful flying type appeared with a screech. "Staraptor time to hunt!"

"Arcehops use Rock Slide!" barked Hilbert as Archeops let out a cry and summoned several large rocks, hurling them at Staraptor. "Dodge and use Steel Wing!" With a screech Staraptor took off, gracefully weaving in and out of the barrage of rocks and striking Archeops with a steel-coated wing. "Archeops pull yourself together and use Dragon Breath!" The prehistoric Pokemon opened his mouth and ejected a jet of purple flames aimed straight at the shiny hawk.

"Staraptor take flight!" ordered Andrew frantically, and with a whoosh, the shiny Pokemon took off, narrowly dodging the dragon-type attack. "Archeops after him!" roared Hilbert, and the colorful bird took off after Staraptor.

"Staraptor use U-Turn!" The hawk nodded and shot upwards into a loop and reappearing behind Archeops. "Now use Giga Impact!" "Archeops look out!" yelled Hilbert, but Staraptor was too fast and crashed into Archeops before the prehistoric Pokemon could react and fell to the ground with swirls in his eyes. "Grab him," said Andrew calmly, and Staraptor gently grasped the falling Archeops in his talons and gently dropped him in front of Hilbert before flying off and standing next to Andrew, who tossed the hawk a Pecha Berry in appreciation. "Hmph, at least he cares for Pokemon, but that doesn't excuse him from stealing Hilda from me!"

"Conkeldurr, you're up!" "Escavalier, lead the charge to victory!" Escavalier banged his lances together in challenge as he sized up Conkeldurr.

"Conkeldurr use Rock Throw!" "Dodge and use Peck!" As Conkeldurr picked up a large boulder and hurled it, Escavalier quickly dodged it and rammed into the fighting type to deal good damage with the super-effective attack.

"Hammer Arm! Don't let him escape!" yelled Hilbert. "Escavalier use Protect!" Escavalier quickly surrounded himself in a green ball of energy just as Conkeldurr slammed one of his concrete pillars down. "Shit, gotta think," thought Andrew, "That barrier won't last forever, I need to distract him. Wait a minute, thats it!"

"Escavalier lower the shield! Trust me!" Escavalier looked worriedly at Andrew but nodded and the green barrier disappeared. "Now use Bug Buzz!" Just as Conkeldurr was about to bring his concrete pillar down again, Escavalier began shaking violently, creating a loud buzzing noise. The fighting type covered his ears as it felt like thousands of bugs were buzzing right next to his ears. "Now use Poison Jab and get out of there!" yelled Andrew. Conkeldurr roared in pain as a poisoned lance was rammed into him and the Cavalry Pokemon quickly retreated. As he got up, Conkeldurr let out a cough, indicating he was poisoned. "Shit, I need to be quick" thought Hilbert.

"Conkledurr use Fire Punch! Incinerate him!" "Dodge and hit him with Aerial Ace!" As Conkeldurr charged at Escavalier with his pillars burning, the bug type skillfully dodged the attack and slammed into the fighting type with blinding speed. The damage from the flying type attack was too much and Conkeldurr crumpled to the ground unconscious.

"Conkeldurr is unable to battle." "Good job Escavalier, I'm proud of you," praised Andrew as the panting Bug type floated over to his trainer.

Hilbert was furious, he was supposed to be humiliating Andrew, but he was getting completely floored, and in front of Hilda. "Ferrothorn await my orders!" he barked as the grass type appeared.

"Abomasnow battle calls!" yelled Andrew as his faithful Ice type appeared, followed by a steady hailstorm. Realizing he'd have to act quick Hilbert gave his command, "Ferrothorn use Flash Cannon!"

"Dodge and use Ice Beam!" Abomasnow barely managed to jump out of the way of the steel type attack and fired a beam of freezing cold energy, Ferrothorn yelling in pain as his body began to freeze.

"Ferrothorn use Gyro Ball!" Ferrothorn nodded and began spinning towards Abomasnow, his ice-encased pods now deadly clubs. "Abomasnow use Bullet Seed to break the ice!" The ice type nodded and fired a hail of seeds, causing the ice encasing Ferrothorn's pods to shatter, though the Steel type continued to spin. "Now use Focus Punch!" As Ferrothorn neared Abomasnow, the hulking Ice type cocked his fist back and slammed it into his opponent's body, sending him flying backwards and crashing several feet in front of Hilbert, swirls in his eyes.

"Ferrthorn is unable to battle." "Mienshao show them your strength." "Skorupi let's bring down the house!"

"Mienshao use High Jump Kick!" Mienshao let out a piercing wail that sent a chill down Andrew's spine and jumped up, her foot aimed at the scorpion.

"Skorupi use Dig!" The small bug type nodded and quickly burrowed into the ground, dodging Mienshao's attack. "Now come up and use Poison Jab!" Suddenly Skorupi popped up behind Mienshao and stabbed her in the back with his tail before she could react. Hilbert sighed in relief to see she wasn't poisoned. "Mienshao let's regain the initiative and use Aura Sphere!"

"Skorupi jump and use Iron Tail!" As the blue ball of energy streaked towards him, the small purple scorpion used his tail to catapult himself over the sphere and swung it in an downwards arc, crashing into Mienshao's head for heavy damage. Seconds later Mienshao collapsed with swirls in her eyes.

"Mienshao is unable to battle." "This is it, my last chance", thought Hilbert, "If I lose this Hilda will never be mine. I have to win this!"

"Samurott, crush him!" he yelled as his starter appeared. "Torterra lead the way to victory!" said Andrew as he too called out his starter. Torterra sensed what was at stake, this person was challenging his master for one of his mates, the tortoise vowed he would not fail his trainer and his best friend.

"Torterra let's start with Razor Leaf" said Andrew. "Counter with Ice Beam!" As Torterra loosed a volley of razor sharp leaves from his tree, Samurott opened his mouth and fired a beam of ice. Both Pokemon roared in pain as the attacks found their mark. "C'mon buddy," encouraged Andrew, "I know you're tougher than that!" "Pull yourself together Samurott, you know what's at stake!" yelled Hilbert. Both Pokemon shook their heads and roared defiantly at their opponent.

"That's the spirit buddy!' said Andrew, "Now use Grass Pledge!" Torterra nodded and slammed his front feet down and sent a torrent of leaves flying towards Samurott. "Dodge and use Fury Cutter!" Samurott skillfully dodged the Grass attack and sprinted towards Torterra, his horn and claws glowing a sickly green.

"Torterra stop and use Iron Head!" The tortoise nodded and charged the Unova starter with his head glowing silver. Samurott was sent flying as almost half a ton of Sinnoh starter crashed into him for heavy damage. "Come on Samurott, you have to get up!" cried Hilbert. Samurott tried to get up, but he couldn't find the strength to do so and collapsed.

"Samurott is unable to battle, which mean Torterra and Andrew win!"

The stadium erupted into cheers, except for Andrew's group who looked sadly at Hilbert, who quickly returned his Pokemon and sprinted off the field.

As Andrew left the stadium he was hugged tightly by Hilda and Rosa, who were lightly sobbing. "Oh Arceus what have I done?" cried Hilda, "He probably wants nothing more to do with me, and probably hates me." "Shhhh," soothed Andrew as he stroked her hair, "it's okay, everything is going to be alright," he said softly as he gripped the two brunettes tightly.

"It's not you that I hate," a voice said. "H-Hilbert?" sniffled Hilda. "Yes Hilda, I don't hate you. It's HIM that I hate," he said as he angrily pointed at Andrew. "Hilbert," Andrew said, trying diplomacy, "Let's talk this through, give me a chance to explain." "Oh I think I've seen it all," said Hilbert with venom in his voice. Suddenly he lunged at Andrew, tackling him to the ground as he let out all of the anger that had been building. The girls watched in horror as he began whaling on their lover, "YOU TOOK HER FROM ME! YOU'VE CAUSED ME SO MUCH PAIN!" yelled Hilbert as tears poured down his face, while Andrew used his arms to shield himself.

Lucas and Barry quickly pulled Hilbert off and helped their friend up. Flareon and Cinccino, who had been knocked off of their perch on Andrew's shoulders, growled furiously at this person for daring to attack their master. As Andrew dusted himself off he was surrounded by his girls, all of them with tears in their eyes.

"H-H-Hilbert," sniffled Hilda, "Why would you do that? I thought we were friends." "He took you from me. Hilda, I've had feelings for you for years, and to see this person I have never seen in my life waltz in and steal you just like that infuriates me," said Hilbert, still seething with anger.

"Hilbert," said Andrew, wincing as he felt pain shoot through his bruised face, "I'm sorry Hilda doesn't feel that way about you, I'm sorry I've made you feel that kind of pain. But it's her choice as to who she loves. I love her Hilbert. When I'm with her I feel like I have a purpose, she gives my world meaning. Her smile is like the first light of dawn, my heart breaks every time she cries, but even then she is beyond beautiful. I love her Hilbert and I would never want to hurt her." Hilda was moved to tears by her lover's declaration of his love of her and began sobbing again, but these were tears of happiness.

"Hilbert," said Nate as he put his hand on Hilbert's shoulder, "I know what you're going through. When I saw Rosa and Andrew together, I felt my world fall apart. I was bitter, I was angry, I was devastated. But then I saw how happy she was, I saw how far he was willing to go to protect her. When I look at Hilda, I see the same thing. Hilbert, she's happy, she loves him and he loves her, and if you truly love her, you'll let her be happy."

Hilbert thought about what Nate said and fell to his knees. "Arceus I'm a fucking idiot," he said as he began to sob, "What have I done?" He was pulled from his thoughts when he felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked up to see Andrew holding out a hand. "Hilbert, I don't want to be your enemy. I'm willing to forgive you, all you have to do is take my hand." Without a second thought Hilbert reached up and grabbed Andrew's hand, the blonde smiling as he pulled the boy up.

"I'm sorry Andrew," he said sadly, "I just felt my world fall apart when Hilda said you two were dating. I always thought we would be together," he sniffled. Suddenly he felt Hilda hug him tightly, "We will be together, just as friends," she said. "As long as he treats you right and you're happy, I'm okay with that," said Hilbert, smiling weakly. "You take care of her Andrew, or I'll kick your ass." "I said it to Nate and I'll say it to you. If I mistreat her, I'll let you kill me. I would never be able to live with myself if I hurt either of them." Rosa and Hilda smiled and hung off their love's arms, "We love you," they chorused. "And I love both of you, more than either of you will ever know," smiled Andrew as he kissed their foreheads.

"So Hilbert," said Andrew, "Wanna stick around and watch me beat Hilda?" "Oh you're not gonna beat me," retorted the brunette. "Am too!" "Are not!" After staring angrily at each other for a few seconds the couple burst out laughing, causing Hilbert to smile, "You're right Nate, they're perfect for each other."

"No matter the outcome, I'll be fine with it," said Andrew as he kissed Hilda lovingly. Seeing that the sun was setting the group split up, Nate and Hilbert going to their hotels and the rest following Andrew, Rosa and Hilda hanging off his arms.

(The next day)

Andrew's eyes flickered open to see two brunettes laying next to him, one on each side. Both had a very satisfied look on their faces as they peacefully rested their heads on his chest. After simply laying there and admiring their wonderful bodies he felt them shift. "Mmmm, good morning sweetie," muttered Hilda sleepily. "Good morning angel," Andrew said softly. He turned his head to see Rosa's beautiful blue eyes staring at him, a smile on her face. "Good morning my love," she whispered as she kissed him lovingly, "Good morning my rose," smirked Andrew, earning a blush from Rosa and a giggle from Hilda, "Awww, she has a pet name, how cute." "S-S-Shut up," stammered Rosa as she buried her head into her lover's chest to hide her crimson cheeks. "Happens every time," chuckled Andrew, causing Hilda to giggle even more. "You jerk," moaned Rosa as she lightly punched his chest. "Aww come on Rosa," said Andrew as he lifted her head, "I'm just having a little fun."

"Speaking of fun," sighed Hilda, "Last night was incredible." "Yeah, I thought it would be weird at first, sharing him in bed with you, but Arceus was it amazing," agreed Rosa. "I'm glad I was able to pleasure such wonderful girls," smirked the blonde as he gently squeezed their rears with his hands, earning a gasp from both brunettes. "You naughty boy," purred Rosa. Hilda leaned into her friend's ear and whispered something, causing Rosa to giggle with mischief.

As if on cue, both Unovans got up and walked towards the shower, Andrew's eyes quickly shifting between their shapely rears as they put a sway into their hips. "Wanna come shower with us sweetie?" asked Rosa innocently as she looked at her lover seductively, batting her eyelashes for extra effect. "You're match isn't for a while, so we can have some 'fun'" purred Hilda, copying her friends actions. Andrew simply smirked and walked over to the two brunettes, the girls rubbing their thighs together in anticipation as they gazed at his manhood, giggling as he led them into the shower.

(30 minutes later)

Andrew walked out of the elevator, Rosa and Hilda hanging off of his arms, both looking extremely satisfied, Andrew simply smirked when he saw his guy friends. "So Andrew, ready to get spanked?" asked Lucas with a grin. "Oh in your dreams Lucas," grinned the blonde, "You shouldn't have breakfast because you're going to be eating my dust." The rest of breakfast was filled with taunting and laughter as the two friends bantered back and forth over who would beat who.

(2 hours later)

The stadium was abuzz as the Vertress Conference semifinals were underway. The crowd cheered loudly as Lucas made his appearance, but the real cheers came when Andrew strode onto the field.

"This six on six battle between Lucas Rowan of Sandgem Town in Sinnoh and Andrew Townsend of Sandgem Town in Sinnoh will now commence!"

"Magmortar let's crank up the heat!" "Armaldo battle calls!"

"Magmortar use Flame Burst!" Magmortar quickly pointed one of his cannons at the bug type and fired a ball of fire the size of a watermelon. "Armaldo use Aerial Ace to dodge then use Water Pulse!" ordered Andrew. Armaldo complied and jumped out of the way of the fireball and opened his mouth to fire a jet of water at Magmortar, who roared in pain as the super effective attack hit, steam coming off his body.

"Magmortar shake it off and use Dynamic Punch!" "Block it with Aqua Tail!" yelled Andrew as the Blast Pokemon charged the bug type, who swung his water coated tail to block the fighting type attack, a cloud of steam swirling around the two Pokemon as the water evaporated from the heat.

"Thunder Punch!" yelled Lucas. "Block it with Crush Claw then use Water Pulse!" As Armaldo swung his claw to block the electric attack, he opened his mouth and hit Magmortar in the face with a point blank jet of water, sending the fire type stumbling back. "Now use Rock Slide!" Armaldo let out a cry and summoned a barrage of rocks and hurled them at Magmortar, who roared in and fainted as the boulders slammed into him.

"Magmortar is unable to battle." "Skaladrak let's rock!" yelled Lucas as he summoned his mighty Dragonite. "Come on out Deathclaw!" To Andrew's amusement, once the blue dragon spotted her opponent she began acting shy, Andrew even saw small hearts in her eyes. "C'mon girl, we're battling," Andrew said kindly, stroking Deathclaw's skin. The dragoness nodded and focused.

"Alright Skaladrak," said Lucas "use Flamethrower". Skaladrak opened his mouth and shot forth a torrent of red flames. "Deathclaw use Dragon Pulse!" ordered Andrew, and Deathclaw quickly opened her mouth to fire a stream of purple flames that slammed into the jet of fire from Skaladrak and creating a massive explosion. "C'mon girl!" shouted Andrew, "Give it all you got!" "You too Skaladrak!" shouted Lucas. Both of the dragons dug deep and redoubled their efforts, but Deathclaw eventually won out and Skaladrak roared in pain as the super effective attack hit home, both dragons panting after putting so much energy behind their attacks.

"Skaladrak use Giga Impact!" yelled Lucas. "Deathclaw use Dragon Rush!" With a mighty roar both of the dragons took off towards each other, wreathed in energy. As the two collided another explosion rippled out from the point of contact, the dust clearing to reveal the two locked in a stalemate.

"Deathclaw quick use Dragon Claw!" yelled Andrew. Deathclaw grit her teeth and slashed her right claws across Skaladrak's torso for heavy damage. "Gotta wrap this up," thought Lucas as he saw Skaladrak pant heavily.

"Skaladrak use Ice Beam!" "Deathclaw use Draconic Divebomb!" As Skaladrak fired a beam of freezing energy, Deathclaw shot upwards and dived down, her body surrounded by a purple aura. A massive explosion occurred as the blue dragoness crashed into her opponent, a massive cloud of dust and smoke was kicked up.

A few tense minutes later the dust settled to reveal Deathclaw standing proudly over an unconscious Skaladrak. "Dragonite is unable to battle, Salamence wins!"

Usually she would have roared in triumph, but instead Deathclaw began licking Skaladrak, nuzzling him affectionately as the orange dragon came to, a chorus of "Awww," echoing through the stadium, their hearts warmed by the display of affection. Andrew and Lucas walked up to their Pokemon and praised them before letting them walk over to the sidelines, Deathclaw nuzzling Skaladrak affectionately.

"Alright Don, let's hold the line!" yelled Lucas as he summoned his faithful Bastiodon. "An immovable object eh Lucas? Well let's put an unstoppable force against it! Grymloq let's go!" yelled Andrew, the dinosaur letting out a deafening roar.

"Alright Don let's start with Flash Cannon!" "Stop it with Rock Slide!" While Don opened his mouth to fire a silver orb of energy, Grymloq summoned several large rocks and hurled them at the orb, which exploded violently as the rocks slammed into it.

"Don quick use Iron Head!" "Use Head Smash!" roared Andrew, both Pokemon letting out a loud roar as they charged across the field. Although Don was tough, Grymloq was tougher and the steel type was sent skyward. "Use Dragon Tail as he comes down!" yelled the blonde. "Don hang in there!" yelled Lucas frantically. Don roared in pain as Grymloq's massive tail slammed into him and sent him hurtling into a wall. To everyone's surprise Don managed to crawl out of the hole created by the impact and glare angrily at Grymloq. "Well Lucas, not many Pokemon can take a hit like that, Don's been raised well," remarked Andrew, earning a smile from his best friend. "But his luck runs out here! Grymloq use Superpower!" "Don use Iron Head!"

As Don charged Grymloq, the dragon type stomped the ground, sending a large boulder skyward. As it came down the dinosaur swung his tail and sent it crashing into the charging steel type, knocking him out instantly.

"Bastiodon is unable to battle." "Infernape let's crank up the heat!" "Torterra to victory!"

As the two starters spotted their opponent they grinned, this was going to be fun.

"Torterra let's start this off with Iron Defense!" "Don't let him Infernape! Use Mach Punch!" Infernape took off with lightning quick speed and rammed into the glowing Torterra, but it was too late, seconds before Infernape's fist collided with the grass type, Torterra finished and the two collided with a resounding clang as the monkey's fist rammed into Torterra's now iron-hard skin.

Shaking his hand, Infernape retreated to await his trainer's next orders. "Infernape use Blaze Kick!" "Stop him with Rock Climb!" As Infernape lunged at Torterra with his feet blazing, the grass type slammed his feet down and sent the fire monkey skyward as a stone ramp slammed into him. With speed unseen for a Pokemon of his bulk, Torterra hurtled up the ramp and slammed into Infernape, sending him crashing into the ground for heavy damage.

"C'mon Infernape! I believe in you!" yelled Lucas. Infernape slowly picked himself up and pounded his chest in defiance. "Now use Flamethrower!" "Torterra look out!" yelled Andrew, but his starter was too slow and roared in pain as the flames enveloped him. "Now use Blast Burn!" roared Lucas, and Infernape quickly sucked in as much air as he could and fired a massive, swirling torrent of fire that slammed into the grass type. "TORTERRA!" yelled Andrew worriedly.

To everyone's surprise Torterra was still conscious, but it was clear he was on his last legs, although so was Infernape, whoever landed the next blow would win.

"C'mon Infernape, one more attack! Use Flame Charge!" "You heard him Torterra, one more attack! SUPERPOWER!" roared Andrew. As Infernape lunged at Torterra, his fist wreathed in searing flames, Torterra summoned several tendrils from his mountains in hurled a large boulder at the charging monkey. Once the smoke cleared Infernape was still standing, but after giving Torterra a grin, he fainted.

"Infernape is unable to battle." "Great job buddy," said Andrew as he praised his beloved starter, who grinned from how fun that battle was.

"Hey Lucas!" shouted Andrew as he grabbed a Cherish Ball, "You thinking what I'm thinking?" "Oh hell yeah," grinned Lucas as he pulled out a Cherish Ball as well. "Come on out!" they both shouted, and a gasp went out through the audience as before them stood Articuno and Zapdos.

"I think they're surprised," laughed Andrew. "Nah, you think?" joked Lucas.

"Articuno use Hail!" yelled Andrew; Articuno nodded and summoned a mighty hailstorm, glowing as his speed was raised. "Zapdos use Wild Charge!" With a mighty screech, the electric bird rocketed towards Articuno, wreathed in electricity. "Articuno take flight!" Boosted by his "Snow Cloak" ability, Articuno took off into the sky, Zapdos hot on his tail, though he struggled in the brutal hailstorm. Suddenly, Zapdos fell out of the sky, his wings frozen by the hailstorm. Seconds later the legendary crashed into the ground, shattering the ice, but injuring him as well.

"C'mon Zapdos, I know you're tougher than that!" encouraged Lucas. Zapdos pulled himself together and glared angrily at Articuno, who had swooped down and landed in front of Andrew. "Use Thunderbolt!" "Dodge and use Ice Beam!" As a bolt of lightning arced towards Articuno, the Ice type swooped upwards and fired a beam of frozen energy, Zapdos screeching in pain as the super effective attack hit.

"C'mon Zapdos, use Zap Cannon!" Zapdos pulled himself together and fired a ball of electricity that slammed into Articuno for heavy damage. "Let's wrap this up buddy!" exclaimed Andrew, "Sheer Cold!" Articuno nodded and with a mighty flap of his wings sent a bone-chilling wind that swirled around Zapdos and encased him in a massive block of ice.

"Zapdos is unable to battle!" The crowd went wild, it wasn't every day they got to see two legendaries battle it out.

"I think you know who I want next," grinned Andrew as he reached for another Cherish Ball. Lucas simply grinned, "Bring it." The audience watched stunned as the two boys each summoned a Genesect.

"Genesect use Flame Charge" said Andrew as the purple Pokemon engulfed himself in flames and hurtled towards his opponent. "Shadow Claw!" yelled Lucas as his Genesect lunged towards Andrew's, his fist engulfed in ghostly energy. After a few seconds of collision they backed off, Andrew's Genesect glowing red to indicate his speed had increased.

"Techno Blast!" yelled Lucas. ""You too Genesect, but make it Douse Drive!" While Lucas' Genesect fired a beam of orange energy, Andrew's was blue and overpowered the normal one to crash into his opponent.

"Flamethrower!" yelled Andrew, and Genesect quickly switched off his drive and fired a torrent of flames, Lucas' Genesect screeching in pain as the flames licked him.

"Not good, gotta wrap this up" thought Lucas as he saw his Genesect panting. "Genesect use Techno Blast Burn Drive! Give it all you got!" "I like your style Lucas, do the same Genesect!"

A scorching shockwave was sent out as the two attacks met. For a few seconds, the two were evenly matched, but Andrew's had taken less damage and was able to put much more power behind his, and Lucas' was overpowered. As the flames died down, Lucas' Genesect keeled over, unconscious.

"Lucas' Genesect is unable to battle, Andrew's Genesect and Andrew win!"

Seconds later the stadium erupted into cheers as the two boys returned their Pokemon. "You did great man," said Andrew, "Infernape is strong as ever." "Thanks, Torterra's a damn tank. Now go out there and win this damn thing." The crowd roared in approval as the two embraced in a manly hug and walked out together.

(5 minutes later)

Andrew and Lucas were walking out of the stadium when they were attacked by their girls. "You did great sweetie!" chirped Georgia as she kissed Lucas' cheek. "You were awesome!" squealed Dawn as she and the others surrounded Andrew. The blonde grinned when he spotted Hilda, "You're next." Hilda simply giggled, "You can try sweetie," she said as she kissed him lovingly.

(1 hour later)

After the entire gang had gone to a restaurant and had dinner Andrew was in his room relaxing when he heard a knock on the door. Opening it he smirked to see Leaf and Giselle standing there, lust in their eyes. "We never got to finish what we started that night," purred Leaf, "and Giselle didn't want to be alone," she said as the two brunette squished their breasts against their lover, their eyes sparkling with desire.

"Well who am I to keep such beautiful ladies like you?" smirked Andrew as he led them into his room for a night of fun.

And that is that for Chapter 36. Jeez, that one took forever, but I wanted to get all of that into one chapter. So Hilda has joined the harem, and I got a few more I plan to add. There one you want added in? Let me know!

As an aside, I think I should explain where in the name of all things holy I have been. Put simply, I've been on Wattpad for the most part, I just find the format there more to my liking. Despite this, I will still post the entirety of my story here as well. On top of that, school, work, and social life have been ramping up a bit for me and I kinda lost the motivation to post to this site. But fortunately for everyone who prefers this site I've found it again and I will be bringing my chapters over and possibly any other stories I make in the future. I apologize to everyone I've kept waiting and I thank everyone who's followed either me or the story.

I'm done here, so I will A, B, C ya!
