Trainer to Trainer
" Now what brings you here to Veilstone City?" the purple -haired boy asked his guest. The boy's hair was tyed up into a ponytail and he wore an orange shirt with a bluish-green apron and tannish pants. He handed him an iced tea and sat across from him. His guest wore black faded jeans, black t-shirt that was exposed by his unzipped black jacket. His black sunglasses covered his eyes, while black gloves with weird runes on them covered his hands.
"Well, I'd thought I'd check up on one of my oldest friends, Reiji. Things tend to get boring on Harvest Moon Island." his guest replied looking around and not touching his iced tea.
"Well, Krestner the last time you were here you were being chased am I right?," Reiji took a sip of his own iced tea."So if you don't want me to ask again then you'll tell me why you're here." Krestner looked at Reiji, all emotions cloaked by his black sunglasses. He got up and walked towards the door. Reiji popped ujp after him and laid his hand on Krestner's shoulder. "Sorrry, Krest didn't mean to be so mean. Obviously something is on your mind and I'm willi...Hey where's Ghost?" Krestner shrugged Reiji's hand off his shoulder and turned to look at the took his glasses off and began to laugh.
"Took you long enough"
"It's not my fault. I've just never seen you without one of your "Original Six" with you."
"Oh I have two of them with me right now, along with this egg that has yet to hatch, and my Chimchar, Ember." And with that Krestner released his pokémon.
"Chimchar!" "Staraptor!" "Sceptile!" The pokémon stretched as if they'd been cooped up in som kind of small ball-shaped room (lol). Reiji looked Staraptor flew in through the open window carrying his Swalot on his back and his Bibarel in its talons. It set them down and the pokémon began to play around. Reiji started to laugh. The two trainers walked out of the room and into the next one and began to talk.
"So again, why are you here Krest?"
"Um, how do I say this? I've lost sight of myself. I have now idea how it happened or whether it means anything but ever since that day I've never been the same. I've sat and I've thought about it over and over again but nothing seems to work."
"Are you talking about the day when she..."
"Yes. I have nightmares about the day when my past comes back to haunt me. I know it's going to happen and I see no way around it."
"So that's what's been bothering you."
"Again, yes."
Then the only thing to do. You've got to battle me. You're obviously out of touch with your inner trainer and I'm willing to teach you how to be one. Whaddya say?" Reiji held out his hand to Krestner.
"You're on."
Several Hours Later...
This is an official two-on-two Pokémon battle between Reiji of Veilstone City and Krestner of Ringling Town. There are no substitutions. Let the battle commence!"
"Ember use Flame Wheel!" The Chimchar engulfed himself in fire and flew towards Reiji's Bibarel.
"Bibarel, dodge and use Water Gun!" Bibarel jumped out of the way and shoots a stream of water at Ember but narrowly missed when Ember dodged. "Bibarel, Hyper Fang now!" Its teeth began to glow and he ran on all fours towards Ember.
"Ember, Dig." Ember dug into the ground avoiding the attack adn popped up underneath Bibarel and punched him into the sky. Bibarel came own on the ground hard but stil looked ready for battle. Bibarel fired of a Hydro Pump at it's trainer's command. Ember used a powerful Flamethrower. The attacks hit each other ending up in an explosion. Inside the smoke Bibarel was stunned as Ember (who trained himself in the art of seeing through thick smoke) tokk the time to attack with Fury Swipes. When the smoke cleared, Bibarel as on the ground fainted and Ember began to jump up and down cheering.
"Chimchar Chim!" He ran over to Krestner and jumped up on his shoulder as Reiji returned his Bibarel to its Pokéball, telling it how well it did.
"Bibarel, is unable to battle. Ember is the winner!"
"Well Krestner it seems that your Chimchar has gotten stronger since the last time we battled. But I don't plan on losing! Staraptor let's go!" The Predator Pokémon materialized in white light. Krestner smiled and sent out his Sceptile, Blade. Blade looked at the other pokémon in earnest.
"Staraptor, Aerial Ace!" Staraptor flew towards Blade with white light surrounding it. Blade blocked it with Leaf Blade then hammered im with a Focus Punch. Staraptor hit the ground, bounded back up and attacked usign Peck in rapid succession. The attacks hit Blade who fell on the ground. He got up to retaliate when a huge explosion took place in the distance. The blast was so huge that it threw the pokémon and their trainers into wall, and returning everyone back into their capture devices.
"What the heck was that!?" Reiji yelled.
"I don't know, but I think it came from the gym! Let's go!" Both trainers ran off into the distance, hoping to make it in time.
