Trainers Are Gonna Train

"That was so fun." Nelly panted as she put her hands behind her head with a grin on her face. She wiped some sweat from her brow and plopped down in the grass of Sikio central park where they would be doing their training for the day. Drew and she were the two fastest runners so they got their first. Next came Rolyn and Cizzi who instantly fell over from the strenuous exercise. Last came Blaziken who was weighed down from carryinghis trainer and her crutches. The fire pokemon set the brunette on the ground handing her, her crutches. Keychimp jumped onto her shoulder.

Blaziken went to go stand in the shade of a tall oak tree, leaning against the trunk until he was given any further instruction. Espeon followed its example and laid down in the shade.

"Nothing like a good sprint to get the blood pumping." Rolyn said as she ripped up grass from the ground. Her Snover ran in circles around her happily and Glaceon went to the shade just as Blaziken and Espeondid and took a seat before licking at its paw.

"Okay, what now?" Drew asked cocking an eyebrow. His two pokemon were on either side of him. Luxray sat glaring like it normally did and Gallade jogged in place obviously enjoying the chance to get some exercise. "We ran now what do we do?"

"Well I never show my appeal before a contest so I guess we can battle." Rolyn suggested.

"Wait, you don't practice your appeal you just give the order on the spot?" May asked looking rather confused. Rolyn grinned sheepishly and nodded.

"Rolyn is very weird." Nelly commented staring at Rolyn through narrowed eyes.

"You don't have to tell me twice." Drew uttered. Rolyn glared at him harshly before standing up, clutching her fists confidently.

"Why don't you show some of that cockiness in a battle Mr. Big shot?" Rolyn taunted. Drew smirked ready for the challenge. He loved a chance to show off.

"Fine by me. Luxray…" He trailed off looking down at his electric pokemon. It stood up getting in an offensive position.

"All yours Glacey." Rolyn said referring to her Glaceon. The dog-like creature scampered out from under the shade and smiled brightly remaining completely oblivious to the harsh daggers being glared at it by the intimidating Luxray.

"Ooh! Let me Judge!" Cizzi exclaimed. She cleared her throat then lifted a hand on the side Drew stood on. "To the right we have the great, the talented and mighty Drew! And on our left we have my best friend, the original, the stunning and cunning Rolyn. Let the battle be clean, no punching, biting, hitting, fowl language…"

"Get to the point! They're having a pokemon battle not a wrestling match!" Nelly exclaimed from her seat in the grass. Cizzi shot a glare in the girl's direction before sighing. May laughed lightly.

"Okay, let the battle commence."

"Okay Glaceon use blizzard!" Rolyn commanded smiling. The snow pokemon whipped its head around before aiming and firing a stream of frost and flurries at the electric pokemon. Just like it had done with May and her Flygon, Luxray dodged without being told. The blizzard came out ineffective. Rolyn blinked stupidly before shrugging it off.

"Nice job Luxray now use thunder." Drew said calmly and with less enthusiasm than Rolyn. He flicked his hair which made May roll her eyes.

"Glacey, you know what to do!" The ice pokemon nodded as it focused on Luxray who was charging up for a thunder attack. In a matter of seconds the attack was launched and went charging straight for Glaceon. Right then Glaceon blew out foggy vapor that formed into a glass wall before it. The thunder bolt hit the ice and reflected off of it just like a mirror and went back to Luxray who was caught off guard and dodged it narrowly.

"What move was that?" May said a little take aback by the defensive attack.

"It's call ice mirror. When trained corectly it can be leveled up to an attack called mirror house which makes the ice completely surround the opponent, the pokemon performing the move, or both." Nelly explained for her. "Glaceon used it on Rolyn and Typhlo so it wouldn't be caught. Rolyn was burnt to a crisp or so Cizzi has told me." May nodded in understanding and went back to focusing on the battle.

"You're not the only one who doesn't have to call out defensive attacks." Rolyn said grinning slyly. Drew rolled his eyes.

"Don't get ahead of yourself." He retorted flicking his hair once again. Rolyn's eye twitched. She was getting annoyed with that little habit of his.

"Flick this pretty boy! Glaceon, ice beam!" Rolyn exclaimed. Glaceon whipped its head again but was quickly snatched up by a purple robotic hand that changed into a bubble around the small pokemon. Soon Snover, Luxray, Gallade, Whismur, Espeon, Houndoom, Umbreon, Snorunt, Bellossom, Furret and Blaziken were all snatched up as well, being captured.

"What the…!" Nelly exclaimed getting up. They looked up and the mechanical arms were all protruding from the bottom of an Exploud shaped hot air balloon. Gallade and Luxray were hitting and using attacks on the bubbles they were captured in with little successand the others did as well, not getting any further than they were.

"Who are they?" Rolyn exclaimed.

"Ahahaha, to destroy the world and all its nations!"The pinked haired woman also known as Yaya said.

"To take control and cause devastation." The yellow haired one also known as Nana added in smirking.

"To bring up and prosper evil in hate!" Yaya said putting up a booted foot on the edge of the balloon basket.

"To destroy life as you know it at an extreme rate." Nana said copying her partner's actions.

"Yaya."

"Nana."

"Team rocket here ready to take flight."

"Surrender now or lose this fight."

"Ex…..PLOUD!!!!"

"You two again?!" May yelled aggravated.

"You know them?" Cizzi asked.

"Yeah, they tried to steal Keychimp before." May said glancing at the monkey pokemon on her shoulder.

"Speaking of that little cutie…" Yaya trailed off pressing a red button. A pink robotic hand shot out from inside the basket itself and went snatched up Keychimp.

"KEY!"

"Keychimp! No!" May called after the small pokemon. Yaya and Nana began to cackle evilly while Exploud just danced happily like it accomplished something.

"So this is why you made so much noise a few nights before…" Drew trailed off. May ignored him and looked to her Blaziken who was kicking at its bubble. It cracked slightly and May noticed this.

"Blaziken, use blaze kick!" May ordered. Blaziken cried out its name and the fires around its ankles flared wildly before it pulled its leg back and gave it a harsh swing at the bubble completely destroying it. Blaziken jumped into the oak tree it was leaning against previouslythen jumped to its trainer for further instruction.

"Wha!? One got out Yaya!" Nana exclaimed in distress as she pointed to the freed Blaziken.

"Okay Blaziken, I need you to get Keychimp free, use sky upper cut on the robotic arm!" May instructed pointing to the mechanical arm that held Keychimp in its grip. Blaziken nodded before jumping up while its claw glowed white. In one swift movement the robot arm was detached from the balloon and Keychimp went falling. May was about to reach out to catchhim but she couldn't let go of her crutches.

"Oh no! Keychimp!"

Drew caught the small sound pokemon letting May release a breath of relief. "Thank you Drew." He smirked at her and nodded in acceptance of her gratitude. "Alright Keychimp, use screech!"

Keychimp jumped from Drew's arms and let out a long and loud high pitched noise that made everyone, including the pokemon, cover their ears and due to the high pitch of the screech attack the bubbles surrounding the remaining captured pokemon all shattered letting them all free. Rolyn caught her baby Snover and Cizzi caught Whismur while the rest fell and landed on their own with ease.

"Now Keychimp use screech one more time and send them flying!" May ordered grinning. Keychimp jumped again and the screech it released at the balloon pushed it back. The sound waves popped the balloon and itwent flying around out of control into the distance.

"Not again!" Yaya exclaimed.

"Why us?!" Nana added.

"Ex….PLOUD!!!!!"

"We're blasting off again!"

"Wow…that was odd. Thank you for saving our pokemon May." Nelly said smiling in gratitude. May smiled in return.

"No problem. I dealt with those two before." She said swatting away the praise while still balancing her crutches.

"I'm in you debt!" Cizzi said grinning as she returned her pokemon. "However I believe it's best we end training for today and just go back to the center to get our pokemon checked out, just in case."

"That's a smart idea." Drew agreed.


Drew walked through the lobby of the pokemon center as he waited for his Gallade and Luxray to come back. Being the gentlman he was he allowed all the girls to get their pokemon checked out first. Afterwards Rolyn and the others went outside to play with their pokemon;May wanted to stay back and wait with Drew but he encouraged her to go.Drew went into his pocket and pulled out four pokeballs. He had been thinking over what Rolyn had said a little earlier and he had made an important decision.

"Um, Nurse Joy, do you have any video phone transporters?" Drew asked Nurse Joy as she walked by with some files in her hands. She stopped and thought for a second before pointing into the center lounge.

"There's one right in there." She said in her normal honey sweet voice. He nodded and thanked her before going to the phone. He dialed a number and waited a bit before a girl with bright lime green hair and gray eyes appeared on the screen. She had faint freckles and a pair of glasses rested on the top of her head.

"Well, look who decided to call. Little Andy!" The girl said once she caught site of Drew who was on the other end of the line. Drew rolled his eyes before flushing in embarrassment.

"Shut up Roslyn. I don't have time for your stupidness," Drew snapped. The girl known as Roslyn puffed up her cheeks.

"Well look who has an attitude. Is it my fault I enjoy playin around with my little brother?" She asked flicking her hair in a most Drew-like manner.

"Whatever…"

"So to what do I owe this call? You never call home without having a good reason? So what happened with May this time?" Roslyn taunted smirking evilly as she dragged out the word 'this' as if Drew had came to her before with stuff about his rival….eh, maybe he did.

"What makes you think it's her? I called because I'm sending you Masquerain, Gyarados, Flygon and Umbreon. Tomorrow I'll be sending Luxray and Gallade."

"Wha? But that just leaves you with Roselia…." Roslyn trailed off. Drew shrugged off the comment.

"That's the point. New region means new pokemon. And May is already ahead of me by having and egg and her Keychimp, can't let her feel so high and mighty for that long."

"See! It does have something to do with May! Just admit that you like her! She's a really beautiful and optimistic girl. I certainly approve."

"I don't need your approval; it's my choice about how I fell towards May."

"So…how do you feel?" Roslyn pressed. A blush formed on Drew's face but he simply ignored it by lifting his head high and flicking his hair.

"That's my business, not yours." Roslyn groaned and rolled her eyes.

"Drew…you are so….Drew-ish!"

"I try." He muttered smirking as his blush vanished.

"Well you can send them over. Call me when you're ready to send Luxray and Gallade. I'm pretty sure Luxio will be pretty happy." Sheaid referring to her Luxio who had some sort of crush on the other electric pokemon.Drew nodded in agreement as he placed his four pokeballs on the transport and pressed send. In a matter of seconds Roslyn had Drew's pokeballs in her hands.

"Take care of them."

"Don't worry little Andy, I will. I'll give mommy your love. See ya." The screen went blank and Drew let out a sigh he didn't even know he was holding.

"Drew? Luxray and Gallade are in perfect shape. They will do well in that contest tomorrow." Nurse Joy said coming into the lounge and handing Drew two pokeballs.

"Thanks Nurse Joy."

"No problem. It's what I do." She said with a sweet smile before exiting the room. Drew looked down at his pokeballs and got lost in thought but a new pressure in his lap made him snap back to reality. He looked down to see Keychimp smiling up at him.

"Hello, can I help you?" Drew asked Keychimp's smile turned into a grin as it climbed onto Drew's shoulder and onto his head. "Watch the hair!" Drew said pulling Keychimp off.

He held Keychimp before him and smiled softly.

"You have no idea how lucky you are to have May as a trainer….can you keep a secret?" Keychimp just tilted its head. "I'll take that as a yes, well to be honest, May is now one of the toughest rivals I have…and today when I battled Rolyn and when May went up against team rocket I realized that this won't be like Hoenn or Kanto, or Johto…it's time to step up. May's getting far and as long as she's your trainer no doubt one day you'll be unstoppable;n; with her potential and determination she'll head pretty far. She has no idea how much I admire her…and you can't understand a word I'm saying can you?"

Keychimp responded by pulling his hair making him yelp. The sound made Keychimp laugh and clap happily like a baby.

"Oh well. I just needed to tell somebody. Now c'mon let's go find that crippled brunette."

Nurse Joy smiled to herself as she walked away from the doorway of the lounge and back to her post behind her desk.

"Young love is so cute." She muttered to herself.

Well Drew did some sort of a confession.

May: Ooh.

Drew: I did no such thing! I admit nothing!

Me: Riiiiiiiiight.

Drew: Shut up!

May: Pweez Review.
