he was used to the greenhouse and the sun lamps and everything else that made it hard to recognize that the gym was indeed indoors. if he was to point out a similarity, however, it's that it's still filled with pokemon. that fact unsettles kyle more than anything else.

"hello, hello. i'm here," he greets as he goes through the hallway of mirrors from the entrance.

his hand grips on his phone was he taps away on its screen with his thumb. a string of text gets sent to the recipient as he mentally prepares himself for the match. perhaps he should've taken someone more useful.

the phone gets pocketed soon afterwards.

Kyle Lopez was probably the last member of the elite four Katherine wanted to see in her schedule for today, but fortunately, she prepared herself for the day he'll come. His reputation preceded him, and it was only a matter of time before he came to collect another badge. She could only hope he wouldn't show up with one of his dogs. Or, well, not a Mightyena. She wasn't a big fan of those.

Still, Katherine's expression betrays her emotions, and she wears a smile to greet the man.

"Hey. I knew you'd show up sooner or later." Her eyes peer at the phone for a moment before finding Kyle's again, choosing not to intrude (despite wanting to).

She turns to lead the way towards the arena, a Castform floating in the air beside her. "I am still new to this thing, by the way. I hope I won't disappoint you."

Her words fail to match the natural confidence in her walk and posture.

"hehe..."

kyle chuckles awkwardly at the reputation he has built up. he thinks about letting up on raiding gyms as soon as they open up, not wanting for people to think he actually likes battles as much as he likes shiny things.

"likewise," he responds, matching her confidence with an awkward smile that exudes the opposite. "take it easy on me, m'kay?"

his fingers slide to his waist until he feels his pokeballs, touching the trigger to release one of his mightyena to the field.

"I should be the one asking you for that, you know."

Strangely enough, Katherine expected something else. First of all, she thought he'd be a lot taller... Like, a lot. The fact isn't some six foot tall man is a surprise. She thought he'd be arrogant as well - but he didn't come off that way as well. If he wasn't here to gloat about winning, then what was he here for?

Following the release of his Mightyena, Katherine selects a Pokeball from her bag and sends out a Milotic. The water-type levitates an inch above the floor, as one would expect it to outside of water.

"Serenity, start with AQUA RING."

Water is conjured out of thin air for the sole purpose of fulfilling the Milotic's wish. Three separate rings are created of the same water, each of them moving to surround Serenity in a protective nature.

"Good luck, Lopez. I am sure you won't need it."

he can only smile coyly at her praise. there's nothing to respond to it with without sounding annoying besides returning it back. "good luck to you too."

there's only one mightyena he often falls back to for 1v1 challenges. while he tries to wean himself from relying on him, kyle often finds himself going back to it from time to time.

"bravo, toxic."

as the milotic sets up, the mightyena does as well. the dark-type prepares a ball of poison from his gut to his maw, sludge oozing from between the cracks of his jaws, before he throws it towards the milotic.

“Sing.”

The elite four member might expect the water-type to lull his pokemon into a deep slumber, but such a thing fails to occur. Instead, the water-type accepts its fate of being poisoned by the TOXIC by standing still, only to open its mouth release a beam of bright, pink heart-shaped waves at the Mightyena.

The DISARMING VOICE is late. It's not possible for it to stop the fate that awaits Katherine’s Milotic, but it might just slow the dark-type's inevitable approach.

the mightyena had been moving in, not wanting his trainer to get another command off, when the opposing pokemon stops him from his tracks with a disarming voice. the dark-type flinches from his actions, hunkering down until the initial hurt subsides.

"just... sand attack."

bravo shakes his head wildly to get the noise out of his head before his paw scrapes against the ground. sand magically pop out of nowhere because of anime logic as the canine chucks it straight at the milotic.

his aim coincides with his intentions. instead of the eyes, the dirt particles go to the milotic's mouth to shut it up.

The dose of sand causes the singing to cease, forcing the Milotic to shut their lips in order to avoid having golden grains stuck inside their mouth.

The serpent sways their head in order to dispose of whatever remained of the shimmering substance. One of Milotic’s aqua rings rippled with energy, an echo that both heals the Pokemon and conjures a mystical wave of water, filling the arena to the brim as it aims at the Mightyena.

SURF is used in order to keep the dark-type at bay, which remains the priority of both Katherine and her chosen pokemon.

kyle whistles a single note.

the mightyena takes the message quick and sets up a defensive barrier to protect itself against the giant wave. water comes crashing down the canine, but the dark-type remains unscathed with the move.

the strat was as transparent as it was at this point: stall until the poison take effect and reaches full potency. it's going to take longer with the aqua ring, but kyle can be patient.

bravo, on the other hand, was a different case.

As repetitive as it might have been, Katherine makes no effort in asking her Milotic to change their tactic. Instead, she simply offers a nod for the serpent to interpret. It waits just long enough for the canine’s barrier to shatter, and then, a second SURF comes to life.

It gushes forward ferociously, caring little about whether if it might ruin the decor inside the arena. These mirrors were reinforced, sure, but who knows how many large-scale attacks they could sustain before shattering?

The poison seeps deeper, draining more of Serenity’s health. The AQUA RING proves useful in delaying its effects, but there’s no denying that these small amounts of damage were adding up and beginning to affect the gym leader’s partner.

water pours in towards the mightyena's direction as soon as the protection fades away. it crashes against the mightyena as the smell of wet dog hair starts to fill the enclosed space of the gym while the waters rescind.

kyle rubs his hand against the back of his neck as he feels embarrassed with how things went. maybe he'd have chosen a different pokemon had he known he'd be facing a water-type, though that's something that he'd only have known with hindsight.

"double team."

the image of the wet canine would soon find itself on different directions, giving no time to trace for the original one after surf hits. a pack of mightyena surrounds the milotic, staring them down with fur clinging onto their frames. mirrors surrounding the gym bring the numbers up, resurfacing kyle's nightmare about having a yard full of wet dogs.

One wet Mightyena was bad enough, but a pack of them?

It was filthy, and it managed to draw a frown upon the woman’s expression. She’s less than pleased with this sight. The water in the room is slowly drained thanks to the same anime logic that supplied Kyle’s dog with sand.

“You don’t need to see it, Serenity. It can still hear you.”

Milotic cranes her neck upwards before beginning to sing once more, her DISARMING VOICE echoing within the room. The vocal assault carries a punch, however, things turn grim sooner than Kat would’ve expected.

The poison pulses within her water-type’s body, causing the singing to cease. It leaves an opening for Kyle and his partner to finally land an attack.

the mightyena prepares to wince even before the disarming voice sounds, but his facade quickly shifts once he notices the milotic give an opening for him to capitalize on.

the mightyena tilts his body aggressively as it then sprints towards the milotic. legs carry it faster than it ever had been throughout the match before it pounces at the water-type, snarling.

"oh."

the dark-type attempts to take down the milotic, trying to barrel over it and bring it to the ground with its landing. it bares it fangs as it tries to wrap its throat with them before it lets off a crunch.

a whistle from kyle tells the mightyena to dial it down.

Despite the damage that Milotic sustains, both the Mightyena and the trainer should keep their guard up. After all, the water-type’s CUTE CHARM ensures that direct contact with it is bound to cause a brief infatuation, or at the very least, spur some doubt within the feline.

“Don’t let it stay close to you!”

And within that moment, should Serenity be allowed to open her mouth, a blast of wind would escape through her lips. A TWISTER in the making, the move is meant to push the dog off of her.

Whether if the Milotic is successful with her actions matters little, though, for the poison finally pulses a final time before she succumbs to the pain. The serpent falls, faints and then meets the cold mirrored floor.

“..Oh.” It’s not what Katherine had expected, but she did know that the AQUA RING would only last for so long. Kyle’s TOXIC was superior to their healing.

“Pretty good.” A smile crosses the woman’s lips before she recalls her pokemon and fishes for a badge in her bag, “I still don’t understand your fascination with these pokemon, but you’re a fine trainer, Kyle.”

He didn’t need to hear this, she was sure, but she had a certain act to uphold within this facility. She had to be the kind, always excited to meet a new challenger, educational gym leader that Walsh expected her to be. She was only doing it because her new boss was cute. Well, that and her new salary.

“Enjoy adding it to your collection.” Katherine says and then tosses him the badge.
