Ned's hair whipped back in the rushing air as his garchomp propelled him to the finish line. His dragon slowed to a trot, and he began to catch his breath. The rush of adrenaline had tensed his entire body, and put his mind in something of a daze. It took a good moment to register with him that he had come in third place. Gobi knelt down as Ned stepped off. [break] [break] "Thanks, Josh." He rubbed his neck. "I'll be alright. Wasn't our first time. I've been practicing a lot, away from the population centers. I'm a classic sort of trainer, I suppose you can say." [break] [break] He looked over the contestants, many of them clearly displeased to have lost to such a beast as a garchomp. But Ned did not think himself so advantaged. After all, two of the Paldean mounts had managed to outdo him. But nonetheless, it was not his concern. He had come to practice, not to compete, and now he was sure that even in the heat of combat, he and his dragon would excel. [break] [break] "You were excellent, Gobi." Ned returned his garchomp to his pokéball. [break] [break] He turned back to Josh. "Once again, can't thank you enough," he said, shaking the gym leader's hand. "Next time, I'll be here for your badge. But for now, I think I need a nap. Another race like that and I'll get whiplash." [break] [break] Ned could feel his mood souring as he exited through the front double doors of the gym. Team Rocket was becoming stronger by the day, and while trainers like Josh and his racers were still perfectly capable of organizing fun and games, it was only a distraction. And if the threat continued to grow, then perhaps the people of Hoenn would not even have that. [break] [break]
