    When Rowan originally heard that challengers from all over Hoenn would be attending this tournament, he never expected to be going up against one of the Gym Leaders. “Nice to meet you, Mr. Ramsay.” A hand was extended in greeting towards the large man, with a noticeable tremble.

    He’d fought other Gym Leaders before, but they weren’t nearly as imposing as Zac Ramsay. Glitch Maverick was a member of Team Rocket and Melody Miro was his best friend, this wasn’t anything like challenging either of them. “Good luck, I’m sure you’re going to do great in the tournament.”

    Rowan just hoped he wasn’t one of the stepping stones on his path towards victory. “Ora, are you ready?” The Poliwhirl stepped into the arena and gave a macho flex, showing off their muscles to the already muscular Gym Leader. “I think that means yes.” Rowan chuckled.

"Pleasure to meet ya too!" Zac said, grabbing Rowan's hand and pumping it up and down in a warm, arm-shuddering greeting. "I'm not here for the challenge, really, just getting in some exercise!" Zac stretched his arms and neck, the muscles creaking like swaying trees. "I've been lazing around for too long. But THIS is gonna be the season of action!"

Zac grabbed an almost unused Pokeball. He'd won it from in a bet, and now it was time to take the beefy boy for a whirl.
"Byron! Get in there mate, it's time to show us what you've got!"
The Nidoking burst into the bright sunlight, blinking and making low noises of caution. "Ready for a battle?" Zac asked, pointing at Ora, Byron's opponent. The Nidoking looked his new trainer up and down, before turning to look at Poliwrath. Byron's eye-plates lowered, and he bristed, snorting in challenge. He pulled himself up, flexing his plated body and never breaking eye contact. "Kiiiiiing," he rumbled, with a voice like an idling bulldozer.
Suddenly, he banged his chest plates with both armored fists, shocking Zac with the harsh clang. Byron was ready, he was confident, and he was offering Ora the first shot.

    Ora watched the Nidoking appear with narrowed eyes, determining the Pokémon a worthy enough challenger for someone of their strength. “You’re really full of yourself, huh?” Rowan asked the Poliwrath with a small chuckle, receiving only an annoyed huff in return.

    Teasing aside, there was a battle to be had. “Ora, use Earth Power!” Rowan called out towards his Pokémon, beginning the fight. Ora raised their fist into the air above their head, energy quickly convalescing around the hand in a strange aura.

    "WRATH!" The Poliwrath slammed his fist into the ground before him, creating a large fissure in the earth that was headed directly for the Nidoking, looking to explode upwards as soon as it reached them.





Ora used Earth Power on Byron!

Nidoking stomped, his armored toe digging into the soft sand. The ground underfoot bubbled and steamed, and flowed towards Ora. The Scorching Sands met Ora's oncoming Earth Power, and the mighty attack's clashed. Ground churned and hissed, bubbling upwards with trapped steam and fire. The patch between the two looked like boiling quicksand!

Zac took off his oversized hat and waved it at his face. He wished there were more ocean breeze and less burning heat. 
Nidoking roared, and their battling attacks detonated in a fountain of scorched earth. Zac shielded his face as chunks of mud and sand fell around them, and when he finally looked he saw a crater had been blasted in the beach.

    A massive explosion of earth shook the area around them, suddenly attracting the attention of onlookers that had seen the eruption of sand cascade into the air. “Nice.” Rowan crossed both arms over his chest with an impressed look, though he expected nothing less of the gym leader and biome master. “Sure is hot, huh?” He reached a hand up and wiped some sweat free from his forehead, glancing up at the sun. “I’ll have to get a Dr. Pika or something after this to cool down. But for now…”

    Amber eyes glanced towards the Poliwhirl, gesturing with a nod towards the Nidoking. “...do Mr. Ramsay a favor and cool them off, Ora.” The Pokemon inhaled a deep breath, their body becoming slightly inflated before expelling a powerful geyser of water that was headed directly for Byron.

"No need for a Dr. Pika!" Zac said, pulling two cans of Charja-Cola out of his Rotom fridge. "I've got your refreshments right here!" He tossed one to Rowan and winked, charmingly. "Did you know that Charja-Cola is scientifically formulated to keep you cool and level headed, even in the heat of battle?" Zac took a hearty sip. "One can is enough to keep you battling for a whole day of H star T!"

Nidoking wasn't paying attention to Zac's truthful claims about Charja-Cola. Nor was he keeping an eye on Ora. Instead, he was launching his follow up move. He had both fists planted in the sand, twisting the beach around them with a titanic Sand Tomb. The crater of sand between him and Ora swirled and twisted, becoming a raging, burning, gritty whirlpool that threatened to swallow up the Poliwrath!

Byron laughed in triumph, just as Ora's Hydro Pump hit him straight in the face. The blast of frog water went right into his eye, up his nose, and filled his mouth. He gurgled and spat, falling backwards onto the wet sand.

    A surprised look crossed his face when the Charja-Cola was suddenly tossed in his direction, catching the can and glancing over the label for a moment. “Uhm...thanks, I guess?” Was Zac Ramsay some kind of spokesperson for the company? Rowan had heard about Gym Leaders being sponsored by companies before, but he hadn’t seen one so fervent in defending the honor of a cola before. “I suppose that I'll drink this after the match.” The can was slipped into the pocket of his cargo shorts and was forgotten about for the time being, though he was curious about the energy-giving claims of the beverage.

    Meanwhile, Ora was noticeably struggling with the effects of Sand Tomb, being dragged towards the center and tossed around by the earth that swelled and swirled. “Reverse the sand, Ora!” A familiar energy gathered around their fist as the Poliwrath slammed into the ground, Earth Power erupting in the center of the Sand Tomb and launching sediment into the air once more.

Nidoking sat back up, blinking water from its eyes as it searched for its opponent. There

With a roar, Nidoking stomped towards Poliwrath, just in time to see the surging sand pit burst and erupt, rendered inert as Poliwrath's attack cancelled out the movement of the vortex. And then it started moving back the other way. Nidoking and Nidoqueen may be classical opposites, but it seemed like the true yin and yang were Nidoking and Poliwrath, as one of them apparently only moved sand clockwise, and the other anti-clockwise.

Nidoking pulled his most furious, intimidating LEER, goading Poliwrath into a close-quarters brawl. "Hahaha," Zac laughed, seeing the look on Byron's face. "It looks like he's daring you to try that again!"


-Nidoking used LEER!
-Nidoking wants to have a punch-up!

    “I wouldn’t challenge Ora.” Rowan commented with a small smirk, knowing exactly how confrontational the Poliwrath could be. “Go on, then.” He nodded towards the Nidoking and watched as the Pokémon advanced towards the enemy, clenching both of their fists with an aggressive look in their eyes.

    “Hit ‘em hard, Ora.” An unfamiliar energy gathered in the hand of the Poliwrath, different from the strength of Earth Power. Ora lunged forward with an outstretched fist, looking to slam a Dynamic Punch into the strong hide of the enemy Nidoking.

Byron's whole body tensed as the wet enemy advanced. He clenched his fist, feeling immense power build, as he leaned down to extend the upswing of this final, deadly gambit.

Ora came in with a DYNAMIC PUNCH, and Nidoking swung forward with a premeditated MEGA PUNCH, meeting the attack head on! Tendons creaks, knuckles cracked, and bones crunched as the attacks smashed together in a brutal clash. The shockwave from the hit cut through the sandy air, busting out in a concussive ring that made Zac stumble.

Zac watched in amazement at the pair locked in hand-to-hand combat. This match was close.

-Nidoking used MEGA PUNCH to counter DYNAMIC PUNCH
-The punches collided!

    Nidoking and Poliwrath came together in an epic clash of punches, creating a plume of air pressure that kicked up sand around them as though this was some intense anime moment. “Damn.” An impressed tone carried in Rowan’s voice, pleased to be keeping up with the Gym Leader in this competition battle.

    “Follow up!” Ora nodded and huffed a deep breath, retreating a few steps before lunging towards the Nidoking once more, looking to strike the hulking behemoth with an intense Body Slam.

Byron was pleased with his countering punch. Too pleased, as the follow up BODY SLAM took him completely by surprise. Nidoking was sent tumbling to the ground, pinned and paralyzed by the force of the full-body impact. "No worries mate! You've got him right where you want him!" Zac called, giving his Pokemon a big thumbs-up.

The Nidoking growled, and struggled to get one of his pinned arms free. He wriggled the spined fist out from under Ora and, with a triumphant roar, slammed it into the opponent's side with a POISONOUS JAB!

-Nidoking was hit by BODY SLAM

    Ora lurched backwards as the Nidoking slammed the Poison Jab into their side, feeling the lingering poisonous effect begin coursing through their system. The Poliwrath wasn’t going to back down from the close-quarters combat, intent on making the other Pokémon regret the attack. “Don’t back down!” Rowan called out with a cheerful smile, enjoying the battle against the Gym Leader and proud of how well his Pokémon was doing against the man.

    The Poliwrath reached with both hands and attempted to grasp the Nidoking with both hands, determination in the eyes of the Pokémon. Ora would then attempt to forcefully slam them both onto the ground, looking to use Submission to make an immense impression upon the Nidoking.

"Yeah! Don't back down mate!" Zac yelled, full of dubiously placed optimism. Nidoking was wet, bruised, paralyzed, and unsteady on his feet. But hell if he had any intention of giving up now! 

Byron advanced on Ora, not giving his enemy any quarter to prepare another Hydro Pump. Much to Nidoking's surprise, his opponent grabbed for him a moment later. Gloves hands closed around his thickly plated arms, and Poliwrath flung him up, over and then down onto the ground in a terrible, crunching slam that sent sand spraying everywhere. 

Nidoking didn't submit. 

Instead, he fainted.

-Nidoking was hit by SUBMISSION!
-Nidoking FAINTED!

    Ora stood alone on the battlefield, his opponent unconscious on the sand. There was a moment where the Poliwrath looked down on the Nidoking before pumping his fist into the air, declaring themselves victor. “Hell yeah!” Rowan shuffled over and offered his hand for Ora to fist-bump, wincing slightly at the force of the impact. “Good match, Mr. Ramsay.”

    He turned towards the Gym Leader with a smile, offering a hand towards the larger man to shake. “You gave Ora a run for his money, he’s totally pretending to not be worn out.” Ora glared at their trainer, crossing their arms over their chest with contempt for the accusation, though he was beginning to wane with the effects of poison. “It was an honor to battle you.”
