Memo’s first Gym Challenge had always been a distant star on the horizon. Growing up in the Galar region gave him a different approach to gyms, and when he finally left the Galar Region, he never imagined, in a million years, that he would actually be in a position to undertake Hoenn’s Gym circuit.

So here he was, under a blaring blue sky, crossed over by the shadows of seabirds that reminded him of an all-out, drag-down turf war between Alexei’s Shitsquawk Brigade and the fattened tourist-fed gullvultures of Lilycove.

The ship beneath his feet was a rocking, groaning beast and the salt air and brisk ocean wind was invigorating.

Upon boarding, he’d been pointed in a direction and told to go forth. He dropped his hood and shook out his hair.

“Hey,” he said, smile and eyes bright. “I’m here for the traditional challenge. Guillermo Marcelino.”

What would find was that Temp was super busy. The busiest person in the world. Doing absolutely VITAL things for the rest of humanity.

He was sitting on the edge of the pool used for battle, his feet dipped inside, his Dewgong was in the water and he poked her head up to rest between his legs. Temp was humming a little tune and had her flippers, mimicking a little dance with her as she barked happily. Wholesome trainer stuff!

When he noticed Guillermo, Temp let her go so she splashed back into the water. A dopey smile was given as he raised his hand to wave!

"Hey, dude! I'm Normal Rararie, but call me 'Temp'! I like your shirt!" If Guillermo was wearing the FIT from the picture, he certainly had some type of style. Maybe. Well, Temp liked it, so who cared? The Dewgong barked before swimming to the edge of the pool and flopping out of it, resting on the edge in the sunlight. She had a job to do for this battle- just not fighting it.

"Whenever you're ready, call out your pokemon and then I'll pick mine! And give you all the technical junk I gotta say before, kay?"

The Gym Leader-- Temp, Memo thought he remembered the name-- was lounging by the poolside, hanging out with his Dewgong. It was really heartwarming to see-- definitely not the, like, badass, queue-epic-music, dramatic entry scene he’d imagined when this had played out in his head. Which was fine. He had a flair for the dramatic, but after fighting a Shaymin on an island of flowers in the sky, keeping it low key was just fine.

Yeah, Temp, Memo’d remembered right. He smiled and pinched his sweater in between his fingers and thumbs. “Thanks, man. I wanted something bright and beautiful for a bright and beautiful day.” Was it stereotypical to be a gay dude who wore designer clothes? Maybe. Who cared?

“Gotcha.” Ah, yes, remembering why he was here-- to battle, not just shoot the shit with this cool dude. Hydra’s Pokeball expanded in Memo’s hand and he took a deep breath to steel himself; win or lose, he wasn’t going to let himself get down. But he had to win. If he lost he’d tie rocks to his feet and throw himself off this boat.

He released the Pokeball with an artful spin and Hydra burst into the world, purple and fierce and quiet, like a loaded weapon. She writhed in the air and slipped into the pool with almost no splash, more serpentine than Memo had expected for, essentially, a giant seahorse. But he supposed there was a reason Kingdra was called The Dragon Pokemon, right?

Gay stereotypes? Hell yeah! We stan.

When Temp saw the Kingdra he perked up, whistling at the unusual coloring as he slowly stood up himself. "That's an impressive girl!" He kicked some water off his legs and unzipped the pack on his hip, rustling around in it for a Dive Ball. He rolled it around his his hands. "Keep an eye out for white marks on the fins on her head; that coloration is very sensitive to sunlight and can get a type of skin cancer if not watched closely." He hoped that didn't make worry too much! It just seemed the most helpful and Temp was resisting infodumping even more on the other as it was.

He tossed his pokeball with less of a flourish and a Clawitzer plopped into the water. She quickly zipped to settled at the bottom, eying the Kingdra suspiciously.

"Okay! This is a standard League battle and will follow all standard League rules! Keep in mind my personal rules for the Gym! Challenger gets the first move!" After he made sure the other was ready with a thumbs up, Temp plucked up a silver whistle that was hanging around his neck and gave it a quick blow to signal the start of the match.

“Thanks,” Memo said, unable to shake down the pride that lanced through him when Temp complimented his big, purple, sea-dinosaur. Though he had little to nothing to do with making her beautiful. She was just that way.

He did, however, take Temp’s warning to note. “Will do,” he said, nodding. “She definitely prefers to be deep-deep.”

In the crystalline water of the pool, both Memo and Hydra watched the Clawitzer settle on the bottom. Hydra stretched out, more sea-serpent than sea-horse, ready to lash out and strike. The trick here, Memo figured, was going to be staying out of that big claw-- while also not demolishing the crustacean, the boat, Temp, and himself. Choosing Hydra instead of someone slightly less destructive like Olimpia, Titanic, or Strom, was a risky decision in and of itself, given her size and merciless nature.

He just hoped they’d come to enough of an understanding to not cause catastrophic damage.

Temp blew the whistle. The battle was on.

“Hydra, use agility,” Memo instructed.

Hydra stretched out her body, coiling and uncurling muscles as she began to move, serpentine, through the water. The size of the pool was her limiting factor-- but she just had to be faster than whatever the Clawitzer could throw at her.

Even as worried, Temp was sure his ship would be fine! It had to deal with his Sharpedo being a brat all the time. If that couldn't take it down, he doubted much else could.

Back to the battle!

Temp hummed and leaned over the water, hands on his knees, glancing down into the water to watch. The bad thing about his set up was it could be kind of awkward since he needed to keep above water for it. Unlike the matches in the sea, there wasn't enough space for them to safely be in there with their pokemon. Shame.

Speed was a good strategy! Especially given his Clawitzer.

"Dark Pulse!"

She blew a few bubbles under the water and hefted her massive claw up- Energy formed, dark and angry, before being launched like a cannon. Her Mega Launcher would ensure the blast moved at high speeds. High enough that if this happened to miss, it would shoot out of the water and far out into the open sea.

The Dark Pulse came at Hydra fast-- faster than either Memo or his sea-dragon had expected. Rings of purple energy lashed through the water and though she tried to avoid it Hydra couldn’t evade it completely. The tyrian loops caught the end third of her body and burst, throwing her tail above the pool’s surface. Hydra compensated by diving straight down so that her tail didn’t hit the deck of the ship above the pool. Stray splashes of water crashed over the pool’s edge.

Don’t be complacent, he thought to himself, realizing his technique of staying away, while it may keep Hydra out of that fierce grip, wasn’t going to be a good enough strategy to win.

But Temp’s Clawitzer wasn’t the only thing fast in the sea. Hydra spun in a circle, lashing the water in the pool in irritation; as she came around, she opened her mouth, and fired off a dragon pulse-- rings of plum-colored draconic energy around a singular beam, aiming straight for the Clawitzer at the bottom of the pool.
