A/N: Here's the results for the alignment situation:
Law: 1
Balance: 1
Chaos: 0
Alright, since I have a tie between Law and Balance, I will decide what alignment Calem will follow as the tie-breaker:
Balance!
Enjoy the chapter.
Santalune City, Kalos region. . .
Calem noticed Matador standing in front of a crowd and then he said, "What is your decision regarding Alignment?!"
Calem responded, "I follow a balance between Law and Chaos. However, my heart wishes for Evil morals and I cannot deny it anything."
"Good. As a Neutral-Evil Chosen One, you will not have to suffer the wrath of your Pokémon with your choice."
Matador then drew his sword and said, "I must challenge you to battle in order to see if you are indeed the one who will change the fate of this world."
"Then let's do this!"
"I swear by my Sword and Capote that I shall prove victorious!"
Then suddenly, swords rained down from the sky and formed a large circle around Calem and Matador to ensure that no one could interfere.
"I must see what you have got, young Calem. Red Capote!" Matador shouted.
Matador applied something to himself and when Calem scanned him, his speed, accuracy, and evasion had risen six times, the maximum amount allowed for a combat stat to be raised. Calem then sent out Pawniard and Houndour. "Pawniard, try to attack after Houndour has used Dekaja! Houndour, use Dekaja on Matador!" the boy commanded.
They complied and Pawniard managed to land a critical hit with Steel Blade, getting a One More and using it to inflict another Steel Blade on Matador while Nekomata appeared along with Pixie and while Nekomata cast Tarunda on Matador, Pixie increased everyone's agility with a Sukukaja.
"You are aware that the battle has only begun, Calem. Thus, I will not run and I will show you no mercy as you showed me none with your actions. Come forth, my brave friend Slime!" Matador said as a Slime was summoned.
Calem used a Rakukaja to increase his party's defense before Slime tried to attack Pawniard, but the damage was reflected back. Matador noticed that and said, "Physical is useless, eh? Well then, face my power! Mazio!" before hitting Calem and his teammates with an electrical attack. It stung, but it was easily recovered from with a Media from Pixie.
"Nekomata, use Tarukaja. Houndour, use Agi on that Slime. Pawniard, try to hit Slime with a Dark Blade. I'll take on Matador!" Calem said to his teammates and they did as instructed. Houndour quickly found out that Slime was weak to fire when it got hit by Agi and used another Agi attack on Slime, rendering it dizzy and unable to guard against Pawniard's Dark Blade, which defeated it. Calem then unleashed a Cleave on Matador, inflicting a small amount of damage.
"Good, but can you stand this?" Matador said as he unleashed his Andalucia attack, inflicting small Physical damage on everyone except for Pawniard, who reflected it back and hurt Matador instead.
Recovering with another Media, Calem used another Cleave while another Tarunda was cast by Nekomata. Pawniard and Houndour then followed up with Steel Blade and Evil Bite respectively, which definitely inflicted Fear on Matador. Matador simply got up and used another Mazio, which was dodged and replied with by a Light Blast from Pixie. Calem then used Cleave again while Nekomata increased everyone's attack with another Tarukaja casting. Houndour hit hard with Agi and then Pawniard dealt the finishing blow with a Steel Blade.
"You are strong, Calem. You are indeed the one who will change the fate of this world. My services are yours." Matador said calmly to the victorious trainer.
"So that means you are joining my team?" Calem asked as the swords around them disappeared.
"Yes. And Slime comes along as a bonus. We will need to visit the one who created your Arm Terminal once we reach Aquacorda Town as Kalos route 1 had been roadblocked because of the fighting, correct?"
"Yeah. I had to go through a more roundabout path just to get to Santalune Forest and completely bypassed the town."
"Well, the worst of the fighting has passed from this area, but we can only reach Aquacorda Town via route 2 now since battle still rages on route 1. To reach route 2, we must head back into the forest."
"Understood. Let's get going."
After recovering, Calem left into Santalune Forest again.
