Did You Let Him Win?
"Feraligatr, Water Pulse and Shiftry, Bullet Seed!" The attacks hit the Shiny Umbreon and the Lucario that stood on the other side of the gymnasium and they flew back into the wall. The Lucario got up and picked up the S. Umbreon and they looked the other pokémon up and down. The S. Umbreon looked back at his trainer and gave him a dirty look as if to say ," Do I really have to take this?"
"Get back in the game, Ghost!" The trainer yelled. "Auron, Aura Sphere; Ghost, Dark Pulse let's go!" The Lucario shot a turquoise sphere of energy at the Shiftry while Ghost ran forward and unleashed a ring of dark energy at the Feraligatr.
"Dodge now" the other trainer said. His pokémon moved out of the way of the just in time to miss being hit by the attacks. Ghost's yellow eyes began to glow as Auron struggled to hold him back. The other trainer looked on as Ghost began to charge up a massive attack. The trainer squinted at Ghost and the energy that was charging dissipated. The other trainer took this as his time to strike.
"Double Tackle Attack now" Both Shiftry and Feraligatr slammed into Auron and Ghost , sending them sprawling into the bleachers that stood nearby. The referee called the other trainer the winner. Everybody went to go mock the loser only to find him gone.
"Hey where do you think you're going Krestner?" his friend Sylvia said as she caught up to him.
"No where" the trainer replied. "I've got somewhere to be right now so if you don't mind." Krestner turned away and Auron and Ghost limped behind him.
"You let him win, didn't you?" Sylvia asked.
"I haven't won a battle since I was 5 and you know that and I haven't got any better. So just leave it alone.", Krestner said harsher than he meant it to be.
"Well then". And with that she stalked away. Krestner watched her turn the corner and then turned to his pokémon.
"Ghost if you ever try that again I'll..."
"You'll do nothing and like it" Ghost said telepathically to Krestner."And if you ever try and stop me again I'll fire it at you"
"Calm down, both of you" Auron said. "Now can we stop fake limping now?"
"Go ahead" Auron and Ghost stood up straight and stretched as if they just woke up instead of getting beatten badly in a battle.
"It's amazing how little these people think of us" the two pokémon said together.
"Yup, and maybe one day I'll actually decide to win a couple of battles. Who knows?" Krestner said.
"The Elite Four are coming soon, for that special traiing session aren't they?"
"They are...why?" Krestner said, the light bouncing off his brown eyes.
We can take them... and win", Ghost said
"I'm not gonna let them figure out who I really am by winning that match. Besides it's too easy to win."
