Dateline December 19, 1206...
(Fire Emblem Engage ost - Friendly Chat)
"Morning, Renne." Florian yawning as he and Renne meet up at the Savanna Biome. "So any idea on why meet here of all places?"
"Well, I figured we can make the usual meals for ourselves. We could have our breakfast at the cafeteria but I have enough ingredients to make breakfast out here. I can't feed my whole Pokemon in my dorm and I assume you're the same." Renne said
"Well you're wrong about that." Florian nodded and then he pull out his Pokeballs. "Come on out, Everyone!" He toss the Pokeball and came out were Meowscarada, Ogerpon, Cerledge, Dragapult, Gallade and Dugtrio.
"All right, let's begin cooing everyone." Renne said. "Gothitelle, can you give me a hand?"
"Gothitelle~" Gothitelle cooed.
"It's good that you two are behaving like yourselves compare to yesterday." Emblem Lief appeared with Emblem Loewe. "I had to admit, this place is so alien when I was watching in the shadows."
"But are you sure it's a good idea for us to pop out here? People will mistaken us as ghosts." Emblem Loewe said.
"Of that, there isn't question since they haven't seen much of the outside world of Zemuria and such. But we should be time since we're out in this open area." Renne said.
"Right. So what's our first agenda for today?" Emblem Lief asked.
"After we eat, we'll take on the Elite Four of Blueberry Academy. After we take all of them on, we'll take on Kieran." Florian answered
"Simple enough for the two of you. We'll be here as always if you needed to talk. However, I would advise private for now. Since we can speak in the opening." Emblem Loewe said
"Yeah, l wanna introduce you to our friends too. But shouldn't the whole world know about magic and stuff by now?" Florian asked
"Yes in some retrospect. Pokemon are renown as magical creatures so our presence shouldn't poses a problem... right?" Emblem Lief asked
"No. We'll just tell them that in our homeland, supernatural beings like the Boos for example are common race." Renne said.
"Very well then. Just let of know if you require our presence. Now, go eat breakfast with you and your Pokemon." Emblem Loewe said
One Breakfast later...
"Ahhh. That's the good stuff!" Florian rub his belly along with Moewscarada. "All right, with that done, it's time to catch some Pokemon!"
"Already back into action, are you?" Renne giggled. "But don't forget we have to deal with the Elite Four as well."
"True. Wanna go do some exploring before we head to the Challenge?"
"I don't see why not. Our class for today will not be starting anytime soon. So we have enough time before our next class."
"Getting some new Pokemon friends can also brings some new tactics. Don't forget to train them too and help them on their strength and weaknesses." Emblem Lief said
"You betcha! Time to catch some wild Pokemon!" Florian said. "Everyone except Meowscarada return!" Florian recalled Ogerpon, Cerledge, Dragapult, Gallade and Dugtrio. "Koraidon, let's go catch some Pokemon.
"Understood!" Koraidon nodded.
"Miraidon, we should catch some Pokemon as well. Let's go." Renne suggested.
"Very well." Miraidon nodded though only Florian can understand him.
Both trainers hop on their Mounts. "Be seeing you soon Florian."
"You two Renne!" Florian smirked and then take off as the two Emblems disappeared.

(Pokemon Scarlet and Violet: Indigo Disk ost - Savanna Biome)
Florian ride through Savanna Biome as he look around and spotted familiar Pokemon that he pass by yesterday.
"Okay, let's see what kind of Pokemon are here..." Florian wondered, Koraidon, hold up for a moment." He requested that Koraidon slow down and stop. Florian pull out his ARCUS Alpha. "Okay let's see...There are a bunch of Pokemon here... Hmm..." He look and see a Trapinch. "Oh, I remember this Pokemon. Maybe I'll catch this one. But what else I should bring along?" He scrolls down. "Hmm... Nothing interesting except for the Trapinch. But I've already caught some of the Pokemon here. Still. Let's go for Trapinch first and we can train it for battle."
Florian put away and then take off. Florian enter the prairie area where he encounters Venonat and Venomoths minding their own business while Rhyhorns sleeping. Florian throw a Pokeball and catch the sleeping Rhyhone. He took off and catch a Doduo who was running.
"Trap." Trapinch craw out of the ground and begin moving. "Trap, Trap."
"Oh there's the Trapinch." Florian pull out his Pokedex.
"Trapinch. The Ant Pit Pokemon. A Ground Type. Trapinch's large jaws are powerful enough to crush any boulders that get in its way as it digs through the sand of the arid deserts in which it lives. It can go a week without water or food."
"Neat." Florian got his Pokeball out. "Time to catch it!" He toss the Pokeball and hit Trapinch's head, pulling into the Pokeball as it move three times until click.
"Congratulations. Trapinch is now registered into your Pokedex."
"Awesome!" Florian cheered and then move out his Dugtrio to his storage. "Come on out, Trapinch!" He toss and came out Trapinch. "Hey there Trapinch! Welcome to the team. Let's be great friends, okay?" He hop off Koraidon and offer his hand until Trapinch open his jaws and bite on the hand. "Owowowowowow!"
"Traaaapinch~"
"Hey look! You got some BQ for catching a wild Pokemon!" Rotom said.
"G-Good to know!" Florian winched.
With Renne...
"Hmm..." Renne scrolling down her ARCUS Alpha. "There are many good Pokemon here but what pique my interest is this Pokemon." She look at Beldum. "I actually wanted to catch one, but I couldn't find one in Paldea or in the cities I was in. And according to the map, it is located in the Polar Biome. The next class begins soon in the Coastal Biome. I should probably make my way there, who knows, maybe I'll get something out of it."
One Class finished later...
"Okay, now that that's done! We can move on to the Elite Four member!" Florian stretch his arm. "I got myself some new Pokemons. But I added a new one to the team and its Trapinch."
"Did you now? In that case, good luck training them. Looking forward to the results." Renne said. "Then again, I'm also planning on getting some new Pokemon since I already train some Pokemon I caught awhile back. In any case, lets head off to Crispin."
"It will take us awhile to go. Maybe during the time, we'll encounter trainers for some extra exercises for your Pokemon."
"Hehe. Sounds like a plan. Although I'm worried that they'll lose to me." Florian scratch his hair. "Well no helping now."
Timeskip toward Savana Plaza...
"And here we are." Florian hop off Koraidon.
"Whoa, what kind of Pokemon are they?!" One of the students were examining Miraidon and Koraidon.
"I never seem Pokemon like they before." The other mused
"Miraidon and Koraidon." Florian introduced separately. "They're special type of Pokemon back in Paldea." He winked
"S-So cool!" The students eye sparkling.
"Already got their respect." Renne giggled. 'Still...'
Flashback...
"Okay Trapinch, use Crunch on Exeggutor! Rhyhorn, Rockslide!" Florian command
"Traaap! Trapinch jump and crunch hard on Exeggutor.
"Exeggutooooor!" It winched
"Rhyyyyyy!" Rhyone roared as white rings appeared and then rain down rockslide and struck Dodrio and Exeggutor before Trapinch jumped away.
"Dooooooo!" Dotrio yelled in agony as both Pokemon are K.O
"Waaah! No way!" One student fell to their knees. "I thought I can beat them!"
"Nope." Florian wink. "Whether they evolve or not, it takes skills and tactic to overcome strength."
Suddenly, Trapinch and Rhyhorn begin to evolve into Vibraba and Rhydon
"Vubraaa/Rhydoooon!"
"Whoa! They evolves!" Florian exclaimed as he scan them.
"Rhydon. The Drill Pokemon, and the evolve form of Rhyhorn. A Rock and Ground Type. The horn of a Rhydon is powerful enough to crush raw diamonds. These Pokémon polish their horns by bashing them together."
"Vibrava. The Vibration Pokemon and the evolve form of Trapinch. A Ground and Dragon Type. It generates ultrasonic waves by vigorously vibrating its wings. After making its prey faint, it dissolves the prey with its digestive juices."
"Ooh so this is what will evolve into Flygon... and what about the other one?" Florian asked
"Rhydon will evolve into Rhyperior when holding a protector when trade! Bzzt!" Rotom answered
Florian turn to Renne with sparkling eyes. Renne sweatdrop.
One trade later...
Renne called out Rhydon holding a protector and then it begin to evolve into Rhyperior.
"Rhyperiooooor!"
'Sometimes I wonder who Trade is even possible for Pokemon to evolve...' Renne wondered in her thoughts.
"Vibrava, use Dragon Tail!" Florian command
"Vibraaa!" Vibrava flew toward and unleash a powerful swing against a Flygon.
"Flyyyyyy!" Flygon fell to the ground and slam to the rocks with swirling eyes.
"All right!" Florian cheered and suddenly Vivrava begin to evolve into Flygon.
"Flyoooooooon!"
"It evolve into Flygon now?" Renne mused
End of flashback...
'Are all the Pokemon here that strong? Or could it be possible with the charms?' Renne wondered. 'Well whatever the case, it's important to train them and have them more experience in battle.'
"Excuse me." Florian approaches the counter. "We would like to take on the Elite Four test."
"Of course! Got a name?" The Receptionist asked
"I'm Florian and this is Renne! We're doing a Double Battle Team." Florian said
"Double Battle, Huh? Haha. Many have tried before and they ended up getting burn in the end." The Receptionist begin typing. "Okay, each of you hand over 50 BP if you wanna take on the Elite Trial. Are you ready and willing to pay up?"
"Of course." Renne said as her and Florian's ARCUS Alpha handed over 50 BPs.
"All right! With that, Duly received and noted!" He turn around. "Hey, Crispin! An order's just come in for you!"
"Comin' right up!" Crispin walk down the ramp and notice the challengers. "Oh hey, I saw you two back in the cafeteria! Florian and Renne right?"
"That's right. And we're here to take on the trial and beat you!" Florian declared.
"Hahaha! I love that energy pumping declaration! It's more than enough for me to cook at the nice simmer over there. All right, follow me. Your trials will begin once we reach it."
"I wonder what it will be." Renne wondered as they take off.
A Few minutes later, they arrive at a location.
"All right here we are!" Crispin said and turn. "All right my fiery challengers, I gotta say, taking on the Elite Four prerry much right after coming to our school is so lit! No wonder Kieran and Drayton like you both. If I'm being honest, you've kindled my curiosity too! I should warn you, though—my trial is no cakewalk."
"Oh yeah? What's the trial gonna be?" Florian asked.
"Putting together a super speicy sandwich!" Crispin declared
"So we're making a sandwich?" Renne raise an eyebrow.
"Not JUST a sandwich. A super-spicy sandwich! Something so hot it makes you breath fire like a Charizard with Flamethrower!"
"So you're a spice lover?" Florian asked. "You know, I think he'll get along with Veyle."
"Indeed. That girl love spicy food." Renne nodded
"Really?! There's a girl out there who love super-spicy meals?!" Crispin jawdropped. "You gotta hook me up with her!"
"Hehe. Be careful what you wish for." Renne giggled. "In any case, the challenge is actually cooking. I should have guessed from your frying pan."
"It may sound easy, yes but don't get your hopes up. You can't use your ingredients that you brought with you." Crispin said.
"We don't?" Florian asked. "Then how will we cook?"
"By negotiating with some of the League Club members around here to get what you need." Crispin answered. "Once you think you have all the right ingredients, come back and talk to me. I'll be your judge for your sandwich-making skills with my own two eyes! The key to cooking any dish is picking the right ingredients. The rest is easy as pie!"
"Well lucky for you, both me and Renne are both sandwich making experts!" Florian smick. "This will literally be a piece of cake!"
"Sweet! I gotta love that passion fire you have! Gimme a hot minute to get everything set up!" He then take off.
"A cooking challenge is at least simple. As he said, if you have the right ingredients. I'm sure you know what you're doing right?"
"I should be asking you that too." Florian replied. "Spicy food isn't your think, right?"
"Sweets and Tea are more my thing. Well since we've eaten some spicy meals before for our Pokemon, let's get this started."
(BGM ended)
(Pokemon Scarlet and Violet: The Indigo Disk ost - Elite Trial)
"All right, I'm back!" Crispin said as he and a few League Club members brought out tables. "First things first—negotiate with the League Club members to get some ingredients. Since the two of you are in the same team, you'll be given the same amount. All you gotta do is make a super-spicy sandwich! That should already be the clue you need. Once you've got all the ingredients to whip up your sandwich, come mimme a holler!'
"All right! We'll make you a sandwich that can turn you into a living fire Pokemon!" Florian smirked.
"Haha! I'm likin' you already! The challenge begins... now!" Crispin swing down his arm and Floriana and Renne took off.
"Okay so who should...' Florian look around and see a girl sitting on the rock. "Ah." They approached. "Excuse me. We would like some ingredients."
"Ingredients, right? I got some potato salded if you want it. But you'll have to battle me to get it!" The student smirked
"Bring it on!" Florian smirked.
One Battle later...
"Wow, I just got burn..." The girl groaned. "Welp. Here you go." She handed over the potato salad.
"Thanks!" Florian said as he and Renne walk around until they approach a guy in front of a castus.
"Excuse us." Renne said. "We would like some ingredients.
"Ingredients huh? Sure I got three. I'll trade you for something potatoey. You got any?" The guy asked
"Yep!" Florian pull out the Potato Salad. "A Potato Salad!"
"Sweet! That's what I'm looking for! All right, here are your three ingredients in exchange." He handed over onions, Cucumber and Prosci as Florian handed over the potato Salad.
"Pleasure doing business." Renne said as they approached the next guy. "Excuse us, we would like to negotice some ingredients."
"I got some mayonnaise. If you want them, you gotta battle me for it." The other guy said
"Then let's." Renne pull out her Pokeball.
One Pokemon Battle later...
"And I been burn to a crisp..." The boy groaned, recalling his Pokemon. "All right, here's your mayonnaise as problem." He handed over the mayonnaise.
"Pleasure doing business!' Florian cheered and they take off. "Oksy so we got cucumber, onion, prosci, and mayonnaise. That's four. Let's do ask the others." Florian said until they approach another league member.
"Hello." Renne greeted. "We would like to negotiate some ingredient business with you."
"Sure. I got three ingredients for you. If you get this trivia question right, they're yours." The Boy said.
"All right, shoot." Florian said.
"What do you get when you mix eggs, oil, and vinegar? Mayonnaise, Crcumber, Onion or Prosciutto?"
"Mayonnaise."
"Correct!" The boy cheered. "You've got some five-star knowledge, I see!" He handed over an Egg, a cruet of olive oil, and a cruet of Vinegar. "Enjoy!"
'Will do!" Florian takes them and take off and approach the girl. "Excuse us. We would like to negotice some ingredients with you."
"Sure. I got some chili sauce or ketchup. If you got some cucumber to trade for me, I can give you one of them."
"Hmm..." Florian rub his chin. 'Chili sauce is made out of spices, garlic powder, and tomatoes. Ketchup is basically tomatos with sugar... I think. I don't think Ketchup will work in this case.' "Okay, I'll trade you our cucumber for Chili Sause."
"Perfect!" The girl cheered as she pull out and handed over Chili Sause and Florian handed over the Cucumber and take the Chili Sauce. "Mmm~ Cucumber..."
"Chili Sause?" Renne asked. "Okay, I'll trust your judgment. Let's go." Renne said as they take off and then approach another league member.
"Hello! We like to negotiate some ingredients!" Florian requested.
"Oh I know just what you need! Buuut! If you got any eggs, I'll trade you for it." The boy said
"So what is the ingredient?" Florian asked
"You'll see." The boy smirked. "Well?"
Florian and Renne look at each other and shrug. Florian handed over the egg.
"Pleasure doing business withcha! Okay, here you go!" He handed over Chorizo.
"Oh a Chorizo! Nice!" Florian said and they take off to the next league member. "Hello! We like to negot.. haaah..." Florian sighed. "I'm gonna repeat the same thing over and over again..."
"Take a break." Renne said. "As he was saying, we would like to negotiate any ingredients you have."
"Hmm... Well I brought too much marmalade... but I also don't need this amount of mustard either. If you got any vinegar, I can trade you either my marmalade or mustard."
"Florian." Renne turn to him.
"Hmm..." Florian hummed as he think. 'Marmalade is orange jam... while Mustard is...' "Mustard please!" He pull out Vinegar.
"Thanks! Here you go!" She traded the Mustard for the Vinegar.
"Thank you." Renne did her curtsy and take off and met the next league member. "Excuse us. We would like to negotiate with you on ingredients."
"Hmm... Sure. If you got some prosciutto and olive oil, I'll trade you for some super spicy jalapeno! What do you say?"
"Of course. Here you go." Renne pull out prosciutto and olive oil and hands it over as the guy pull out jalapenos.
"Nice! Now I got everything I need!" The guy cheered.
"Pleasure doing business." Renen said and they take off. "So what do you think?"
"Hmm... I think we got everything we need." Florian said. "Let's head back to Crispin." He said as they return to Cirspin.
"What'suuuup! Got everything you need for the Super-spicy sandwich?" Crispin asked
"Yep!" Florian roll up his sleeves and smirked. "I got all that I need!"
"Ohoh! Look at that smirk. I can tell you're cooking on high heat! Looking forward to something extra spicy, then!"

"Well, I wouldn't call it messy but..." Florian close his eyes. "I can agree that I'm the source of what he became. Renne has nothing to do with it."
"Flroian..." Renne said solemn.
"Thought so. Drayton's cookin' something fishy too." Crispin sighed until he slap his frying pan. "Gaaaah! Everything's getting so complicated! Can't you all just get over yourselves?! If you wanna say something, just say it! If you wanna do something, just do it!"
Florian and Renne blink.
"Are you okay?" Florian asked

"I-I lost..." Crispin said in disbelief as he clench his fist and then raised his fist. "WOOOOOHOOOO!" He recalled his Pokemon to their Pokeball. "That was awesome!" He approach Florian and Renne. "We cranked the heat all the way, and you even fight fire with fire. Literally!" He laughed. "You really put me on edge if I can't use Fire Type Moves. Adding Sunny Day, it would have been useless against them but powering them up."
"Haha. You really know how to put up a fight, Crispin." Florian chuckled. "Empowering your Fire Pokemon does has it advantages, but I figured we could also use that against you if we play our cards right."
"Haha. I get that. I already thought of some counter strategy but in the end, you overpower the spices I prepared. Cooking and battling are similar if you think about it. In battle, you either win or lose, and cooking, it's either spicy or not spicy. Simple, right?"
"Um... I guess?" Florian tilt his head.
"But right now, the mood in the League Club feels... I dunno, off. It's so frustrating... I wish I know how we could go back in bein' the fun club we were before..."
"Crispin..."
"But hey, didn't mean to douse the flames there." Crispin chuckled. "You two were really strong! I can imagine just one of you facing me. I bet it's the same result. Your cooperation surpasses anyone I face here. Except for my fellow Elite Four and Champions. Lemme see if I can transfer the burning heat from our battle into my frying pan! I'll whip you two something great! Let's take a picture!"
"Sounds good!" Florian smirked and then they taken a group picture of Crispin's defeat with his Magmartar using fire while FLorian cheered and Renne was seating on a table that was brought out of nowhere.
"Oh by the way. Here you too!" Crispin give them TMs."This is one of my favorite moves I serve in battle: Temepr Flare! I've got no clue how to manage the temperature of anything besides what I'm cooking. So all I can say is... crank up the heat all you want in the BB league, you guys!" Then he and Magmartar took off.
(BGM ended)
"He really is an odd one, isn't he?" Renne asked
"Yep. But his goofy personally with cooking has it charms." Florian chuckled. "Still. I imagine he doesn't like the current condition with the Leage Club at this moment."
"Right." Renne nodded. "So are you done observing our battle Drayton?"
"Haha. How do you guess?" A voice asked as Drayton approached.
"What brings you here, Drayton? Or were you hoping to spy on us?" Florian asked
"Nothing, like that. Honest. If I do that, it wouldn't be fair to you both." Drayton chuckled. "Just wanna say that things are lookin' good for you for beating a member of the Elite Four. Crispin's no pushover—he's just super straightforward. I think that's kinda part of his charm, y'know?"
"Funny. I just said the same thing a moment ago."
"Anyway, we used to all chow down on Crispin's cooking after the club activities let out. Those were the days. Guess he's been worrying about the way things are, too, in his own way."
"And that's also why you were observing us? You're placing your hopes on us to set everything right by dethroning Kieran?" Renne fold her arms.
"Pretty much. Anyway, that's all for me. Good luck with the remaining Elite Three." Drayton took off.
"So who should we face next?" Renne asked, turning to Florian
Florian pull out the map. "Hmm... I say the Canyon one. It's a Steel Type. We might find some Pokemon to catch too."
"I suppose so. Come on. Let's heal our Pokemon and take off."
One healing later...
(Pokemon Scarlet and Violet: Indigo Disk ost - Canyon Biome)
"So this is the Canyon Biome. It certain has canyon all right." Florian said. "It seems we have to rely on you two more with the climbing." He said to Koraidon and Miraidon.
"We're glad to help!" Both of them said, though Florian can understand him.
"We might find some Interesting Pokemon while we're here. So let us be off." Renne said as they take off in Turbo Mode.
As they explore around and following the map. They encounter many pokemon they encounter before. But for Pokemon like Squartles, Horsea, Seadra, Chinchou, Geodude in Alolan form and such have yet to be encountered. Florian watched many people while Renne decided to catch Horsea, Axew and Chinchou. Among the battles, Horse begin to evolve into Seadra, Chinchou evolve into Lanturn, Axew evolve into Frature. Renne also catch herself a Rotom. And then learn that it will evolve into Kingdra while holding a Dragon Scale while trading, the next objective is to find the trading machine.
They begin to climb up mountains until eventually they reach the Canyon Plaza and heal their Pokemon.
"Man, I can't believe it was a long way climb." Florian sighed.
"I can't be helped. We walk and explore and battle different trainers and evolve our new Pokemon since coming here." Renne said. "That reminds me, I need to trade with you."
"Oh right. There should be a healing and trade machine." Florian look around and spotted it. "Oh there it is." They head there and then heal their Pokemon and then pull out their Pokeball. "Ready?"
"Ready." Renne said as they used the Trade machine to trade Seadra and Cerledge. As the training was complete. Florian called out Seadall and then begin to evolve into Kingdra. He return Kingdra to the Pokeball and then trade back Kingdra and Cerledge. "Done."
"All right, let's head to the receptionist. "Florian said as they headed to the receptionist counter. "Excuse us. We're Florian and Renne and we want to take on the Elite Trial."
"Florian and Renne... Ah! Okay, I just need to do is pay 50 BP points each and you're in. You got it with ya?"
"Yep. Here you go." Florian said as he and Renne handed over BP points.
"All right!" The Receptionist cheered and then press the button. "Amarys! You're up!"
Approaching is Amarys.
"Florian and Renne I presume?" Amarys asked
"That's us!" Florian smiled.
"As you two can see, I'm present and ready for your trial. A change of location is required. Come." She said and they take off.
'She really sounds like a machine than human...' Florian thought.
They begin to take off to a new area where eventually they arrive at said area.
"So this is where be the trial?" Florian asked.
"That is correct." Amarys answered.
"Are you dissatisfied with our presence for being in the BB League, Amarys?" Renne asked.
"I was against it, yes. The decision to allow the both of you to take on the League was irregular. But the academy allowed it, and their ruling is absolute. Therefore, I will carry out my duty as a member of the Elite Four as flawlessly as I always do." Amarys turn to the stone arch. "The Elite Trial I devised starts right here. I call my challenge... the Flying Time Trial."
"The Flying Time Trial?" Florian asked
"You two will need to fly around the skies of the Terium while riding a Pokemon." Amarys pull out her pocketwatch. "Reach the goal within the prescribed time, and you will pass the test. Fly through the Magnemite rings, and extra time will be added to the countdown. I recommend you go through as many rings as possible as you fly toward the goal."
"I see. All right." Renne said. "It should be simple enough."
"Right." Florian nodded as he and Renne pull out their Pokeball and bring out Koraidon and Miraidon.
"Ready to ride?" Koraidon asked.
"Ah, good." Amarys said. "With some effort, these Pokemons should be capable of flight. The two of you are name Agias, yes? Curious. This is for you to eat."
"Actually they're—" Florian said as Koraidon and Miraidon chowed down on a concoction and both of them were cloak in their respectful aura. "Oh!"
"What did you fed them?" Renne asked.
"Your Agias just consumed is a supplement that enhances a Pokemon's flight capabilities. I prepared it using the leaves of a mysterious plant that was found growing in the Terarium." Amarys answered. "They will be able to soar through the skies as it pleases—but only for the duration of the trial."
"Interesting." Renne mused. "I have questions about this plant you spoke off. But we will discuss this after the trial."
"Very well. The two of you are paired together for this trial Therefore you two must follow each others leads. With that said, you have all you need to begin the challenge. I wish you both luck."
(BGM ended)
"Thank you." Florian nodded as he and Renne hop on their respectful Pokemon as they take on Flight Mode and they jump high enough. Their wings sprout and suddenly gain the ability to fly.
(Pokemon Scarlet and Violet: Indigo Disk ost - Elite Trial)
"I see one of the rings!" Florian yelled
"Then elt's fly!" Renne said as they fly toward the rings
"I can't believe Koraidon and Miraidon are actually flying!"
"I have a suspscious about this herb Amyras spoken about. I'm sure you know what I'm referring, don't you?"
"You don't mean...!"
Renne nodded. "Yes. That is most likely that very case. I must ask her more details about if. Is so, then we may also discovered a different Herba Mystica that not even the Professors and Arven has recorded."
"Should we tell Arven about this?" Florian asked
"Once we learn about this herb ourselves and get an example, then we can. Right now, it hasn't concern, though the possibility is high."
"In that case, we got extra talk with Arven. But do you think if we can get the full match of the herb, both Koraidon and Miraidon will be capable of flying?"
"Considering that we're flying around smoothly. I say we will have no issue." Renne said as they pass through the rings.
"I bet you two are excited to hear that, huh?" Florian talking to Koraidon and Miraidon.
"Of course. How can we not?" Miraidon asked.
"I'm actually so excited!" Koraidon cheered.
"Just a few more rings and we'll be done." Renne said and they pass through a couple of rings and then they landed safely.
"And challenge complete!" Florian raised his fist with a cheer.
(BGM ended)
Amarys clapped her hands. "That was an impressive display of punctuality. I must admit, It was satisfying to watch you both fly. Congratulations. You both have cleared my Elite Trial. Now, a change of location is required once again. Come."
Back to the plaza...
"Now that we have return, you both earn the right to face me. I assume you two wish to be in pars to defeat me?" Amarys asked
"That's correct." Renne answered. "We're aware of the rules that we must used three Pokemon since we are in pairs. And only one of us must Terastallie our Pokemon."
"Then explaining the rules is irreverent, but also cut time. Do you two wish to begin?"
"Yes." Florian nodded
"Understood. Let's assume our battle positions." Amarys tuck in her glasses as they take in position. "Position assumed." She turn around to face them. "There is one thing I wanted to ask you both... It concerns Kieran. What is he to you both?"
"Kieran..." Florian close his eyes. "He's my friend. He's someone I really care for."
"The same applies to me. Kieran, Florian and I are good friends during our trip to Kitakami. While his... behavior has change... that concerns us greatly but..."
"We will do what we can to snap him out of it." Florian said with determination.
"I see. So you both feel so strongly with him." Amarys close her eyes before opening them. "For my part, Kieran is the younger brother of my dear friend, Carmine. Something in him has changed—he is not his usual self. I find this deeply concerning. As the two of you felt the same. If possible... I want to be the one to help him. That being the case, I cannot afford to lose."
(Pokemon Scarlet and Violet: Indigo Disk ost - Battle! BB League Elite Four)
"In that case." Florian pull out his Pokeball. "Then I suggest you do not hold back. Cause neither will we."
"Understood." Amarys nodded. "Our battle starts now." Amarys pull out Heavy Balls.

"I am... not enough." Amarys sighed. "I see." She recalled Metagross and then approach. "The strength of one's Pokemon reflects the strength of one's beliefs. Your desire to help Kieran is evidently greater than my own.
"Maybe. But you also possess that same amount." Florian smiled. "We're grateful to see it for ourselves of how much you care for him, Amarys."
"Indeed. Our strength and desire to help Kieran are one in the same. In truth, we are equals." Renne agreed
Amarys slightly lower her head. "You both truly are a kind person." She look at them. "All right, then. Time for a photo. We must ensure that your victory here is properly commenorated."
"Okay then!" Florian smiled and he got out his Rotom ARCUS Alpha out.

"Yes. Miraidon is the blue one while Koraidon is red. I would like to ask about this herb you spoke off. It wouldn't happen to be a glowing herb, correct?"
"Curious? How did you know?" Amarys asked.
"I knew it." Renne close her eyes.
"So it's another Herba Mystica!" Florian said
"Herba Mystica? Is that the proper name?" Amarys asked
"Indeed. They're special herbs that has been imbued with Terastall energy that bolster the healing effects. They originally came from Paldea Great Crater. Area Zero to be more precise. What color was this herb?"
"It was orange."
"There were five in total. But there wasn't any record of another herb." Renne mused
"Perhaps this one has yet to be recorded." Amarys mused. "I would like to thank you for this new data regarding the herb. I will add this immediately."
"Can I make a request? Can you bring us the herb?"
"Unfortunately, if you wish to continue this discussion, it will have to be after your champion match with Kieran."
"Got it. Until then Amarys." Florian said as Amarys took off.
(BGM ended)

"Watching the battle, Drayton?" Renne asked
"Nope. Just wanted to congratulate you both. Already taken down two Elite Four Members. You both sure know how to crush it." He chuckled. "Amarys sure leaves an impression, huh? It's wild seeing her and Carmine talk. You'd never guess it, but they click in a weird way. It's pretty funny to watch."
"Funny?" Florian tilt his head.
"Anyway, the thing about Amarys is, as riding as she looks, she's got a sensitive streak a mile wide. Remember that about her, OK? Even if it's hard to tell from outside."
"Don't worry. We won't forget it." Renne said before notice Kieran coming. "And look who's coming."
"Seems like things are going well with the BB Leagues." He said "Right, you two?"
"Nice to see you, too Kieran. Were you watching the battle just now? Hoping to get some detail about our team?" Renne asked
"Don't kid yourself. Just worried is all."
"Oh?"
Kieran dark grin. "It would have been so disappointing if the both of you had gotten weakened. Especially you, Florian. I would actually be soooooo disappointed."
"Well, I hope I met your expectations than." Florian said
"Oh without question. You look strong as ever, thankfully." Kieran fake smiled. "Be sure to go all the way. Although, I am curious about one thing. Why would you ever be friends with Renne?"
"What's that supposed to mean?" Renne narrowed her eyes.
"Oh, nothing really. I'm just a bit shocked that someone like you could even enroll back in your school in Paldea. Or perhaps any school for that matter. Someone like you has no place to exist in society, just rotting in a cell where someone rotted as you should stay in."

"What?" Renne glared
"Ookay, Kieran, I think you went too far with that joke." Drayton narrowed his eyes.
(Sword Art Online ost - Tense Sitation)
"Am I though?" Kieran asked, giving a dark grin. "Is it a joke? Or is it the truth?"
'I don't know why but... I don't like where he's going with this...' Renne thought. "Clearly you hit your head too much ever since you changed."
"Huh?"
"You claim that I'm some sort of menace to society. But I have done nothing to deserve it. All I hear is some twisted joke that comes out of your mouth to slander me. I expected better of you Kieran. You were once a kind person, but instead, you became this twisted insane person who can't be reason with. If you're only here to throw insults, I suggest you leave."
"Do my ears hear right?" Kieran turning to Renne completely and then shivered. "Insane... twisted? Pffft... Hehehe..." He bend his back backward as he palm face. "EHEHAHAHAHAHA!" He crackled loudly, causing a surprise reaction for Florian, Renne and Drayton.
"Did I say something funny?" Renne asked
"Oh this is HILARIUS!" Kieran face Renne with a dark grin. "You of all people calling me twisted? That's completely rich coming from you! You who is nothing more than a murderer!"
An ?! appeared over Renne's head, causing her to gasp. "What are you saying?"
"Oh don't play coy with me. I heard everything about you from that Natsume guy! How you were an Enforcer from Ouroboros that likes to toy with others. Not to mention you enjoy killing the people that you slaughter! So stop calling me out you hypocrite!"
"An Enforcer...?" Florian turning to Renne who was shocked to respond.
"Oh, she didn't tell ya?" Kieran asked, giving an amusing smirk before turning to Renne. "Come on, tell them how you are nothing more than a mass murderer who toys with her victims like a wild cat."
"..." Renne closes her eyes as she lowers her head.
"Aww, cat caught your tongue, Kitty? Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Kitty, that's also the name of a famous hacker from Crossbell, yeah? Did she also tell you she's a hacker too?"
"Kieran." Renne raise her head, giving him a glare. "That is enough."
"Ooh, how scary! What an intimidating glare! Is that how you slice off your victims with your scythe?" Kieran shrugged with a dark crackle. "Oh, wait. Are you planning on killing me too? Go ahead, I dare you to. Prove me right and let everyone here know that you are a murderer who took countless lives. I bet you even kill so many innocent people and committed many horrible things as an Enforcer too."
"That's..." Renne clenched her teeth.
"Oh will you look at that. You admit it." Kieran clapping his hands. "You actually admit it! Hey everyone! We got a murderer here! And her. Name. is Renne Bright! Our transfer—"
POW!
"Oof!" Kieren fell on his back where he turn and see Florian all pissess off, shocking Renne and Drayton.
"You better shut your damn mouth, Kieran!" Florian yelled and then grabbed Kieran's collar and shove him to the wall. "You honestly got a lot of nerve to say that stuff to Renne! She had nothing to do with this! This is between you and me!"
"Oh, but I'm afraid this has everything to do with her." Kieran said until Florian punch the wall next to him, causing an ! over his head.
"What has she ever done to you?! Huh?! Was it her who catch Ogerpon, the Pokemon you so idolize?!" Florian asked, giving him a glare.
"Ngh...!"
"No, she wasn't! I was the one! Ogerpon chose me, not her! Renne was worried about you just as I was, but instead, you're giving us this shitty attitude! An attitude that drives people away!" His yelling causing a lot of commotion as students and even Amarys to come to check it out. "Now here you are, slandering one of my best friends who means a lot to me. Calling her a murderer right in front of me... is this what you want Kieran? To sever my friendship with you?! IS THAT WHAT YOU WHAT YOU PRICK!?"
"Oooooh!" The students exclaimed
"Oi, stop instigating!" Drayton shouted. "Florian, that's enough! He's not worth it!"
"Nngh..." Florian clenched his teeth, releasing Kieran as he drop on the floor and walk away before stopping. "You know what Kieran... fine." He glared at him. "If it a battle you so desperately want, then it's a battle I will give you. But make no mistake. I won't be holding back. And when I do, nothing will save you. You'll lose everything to me. Just like you lose Ogerpon."
"Florian, that's enough!" Renne shout.
"Nngh...!" Kieran responded with ticks on his forehead as he got back on his feet. "Just you wait, Florian!" He pointed at him. "I'll make you eat those words if it the last thing I do! I will crush you with everything I had!" Kieran then stormed off, shoving students out of his way.
"All right, nothin' to see here!" Drayton waving his arms and telling the students. "Come on, move it along. Amarys, can you get them out?"
"Ah... yes." Amarys nodded her head sadly. "Everyone, evacuate, that is an order." She ordered as the students take off.
(BGM ended)
"Hey..." Drayton turn to Florian and Renne. "Are you guys okay?"
"I'm fine... but, Florian... are you..." Renne trailed off.
Florian shook his head. "No. I'm not okay. To think Kieran would... would..."
Drayton scratching his head sheepishly. "Hey, don't let him get to you. I didn't expect him to say such things and... let up to this... This murderer slander... I didn't think he would say that to his friends..."
Florian let out a "tch." "He's... not my friend anymore. For him to do that... Shows how much he really change. Sorry, Carmine..." He clenched his fist.
"Florian..." Renne muttered
"I... I'm sorry I wrap you guys into this." Drayton lower his head.
Florian shook his head. "Don't be. Kieran needs to be stopped. He'll get what's coming to him. We're heading to the Coastal Biome next."
"Al... All right." Renne trailed off.
"Then... I'll wish you two luck against the remaining Elite Four. I'll keep an eye on Kieran to see if he pulls anything funny. So... later." Drayton said as he takes off.
"Come on, Renne, let's go." Florian said as he got out his Pokeball and came out Koraidon and hop on.
"..." Renne remain silent as she brought out Miraidon and hop on.
Both Miraidon and Koraidon then take off and glid away, climbing up the mountain until reach an area.
"Florian, wait." Renne called out as they stopped.
"What is it?" Florian asked.
"Listen... we... need to talk. We're alone. This spot might be good to talk."
Emblem Loewe and Emblem Lief appeared with sad look.
"Are... you both really okay?" Emblem Lief asked. "That... was a heated moment."
"Yes. I didn't expect your friend to learn about your past." Emblem Loewe muttered.
"By Natsume... that little..." Renne clench her teeth.
"Wait..." Florian turn to Renne and Emblem Loewe. "What do Loewe mean about your past?"
Renne and Emblem Loewe look at each other before Renne took a deep breath.
"Kieran wasn't lying about... me being an Enforcer to Ouroboros."
A silent fell in the moment as a moving Alolan Geodude was minding his own business.
Florian eye widen with Emblem Lief. "What?"
Two Elite Four Members down, two more to go. But damn, that was one ugly moment.
I'm sure many of you are wondering or probably don't care but why suddenly the Pokemon there evolve so suddenly? I'll be honest with you. I have no idea. All the preevolve Pokemon there were high level and I just go with it. But it doesn't change they need some skills in battle. So boom.
