Archie and Roger walked into the Pokemon gym, ready to defeat Roxanne and gain their first badge. They walked around, having a look at many unearthed bones scattered around the gym. It was empty, and Archie thought it felt like he wasn't meant to be there. Suddenly, Roger said "hey...are we like, supposed to wait or something, I don-" when suddenly a female voice spoke up, saying "wait no more." Making Roger nearly jump out of his skin. "I am a very seasoned gym leader." She continued in a very formal voice. "Now, as I have with many trainers before, let us battle." She pointed at Roger and said "you first, now into the arena!"
"The match between the gym leader Roxanne and the challenger Roger will end once all Pokemon on either side are knocked out. The gym leader will not be able to substitute pokemon and each side will use 2 Pokemon each." The announcer said. Archie has just gotten to the seating area, with 3 buckets of popcorn, 3 drinks and a nice cushion for his Pokemon. Grovyle, who he had named Thorn, had fallen over and was now being carried by the Arcanine, Growly, who had a very unimpressed look on his face. They sat down, Archie handed the food and drink to his Pokemon, and they watched the match.
"Battle begin!" The announcer shouted again, and Roxanne sent out geodude.Roger said nervously " alright Shelly, let's do this!" As he threw a Pokeball with some sort of turtle blasting out. Archie has never seen it before, so he looked it up in an encyclopedia. He found it in the Kanto section, a Squirtle. Suddenly, someone barged past with a group of people following them. I hoped for a moment it wasn't team Magma, but instead it was a man and just a regular crowd of people pushing past. He sat next to me, saying "That challenger's got no chance. Does he even know what type matchups are?" I looked over and the gym leader had been forced to use their second Pokemon, nosepass. It knocked out Shelly, and Roger used his final Pokemon, a pidgey. The guy laughed and said "sorry I haven't introduced myself, I'm Jacob. And that guy is getting creamed!" Nosepass has knocked pidgey over, but with a shocking turn of events, it got up, charged at nosepass and unexpectedly evolved, sending the nosepass into a rock.
I started cheering, when Jacob said "Wait, you're happy for that guy? Where'd you come from, littleroot town or something?" Archie slowly nodded, as Jacob said "Oh, you're kidding me. I'm outta here." And he walked away.
It was time for Archie to face Roxanne. Archie sent out Thorn, and she sent out nosepass. It used absorb, and the nosepass instantly fell over in defeat. She sent out geodude, and Archie commanded his Grovyle to use pound. They charged at each other, and Grovyle his geodude with its tail, jumped off, and used absorb to finish it off. Archie has won.
