The sound of the waves was so calming that them alone was probably keeping Kazimir sane as he approached Rocket territory and was stopped by someone. Someone who had a fine appreciation for keeping one's body in top shape. It was a shame that they were on different sides on this shore, he could use a new work out buddy. "Ah tossing around you Rockets for one really helps keep these girls in top shape. You guys are heavier than ya look y'know?"

Kaz raises and arm and slaps his bicep as it bulges from flexing it. As he does he can't help but smile at the other guy as violent thoughts started to cloud his mind. "How about I give you a live demonstration on my routine? I think I can do about thirty reps bench pressing ya. Y'know, once I knock you the fuck out." He adds a "playful" wink to the end of his sentence.

Again the sound of the waves were so soothing, they were keeping Kaz from just outright jumping at the guy like a rabid Granbull.

[attr="class","text"]
It was a laugh.
[break][break]
Belly bursting even, at least this guy had a sense of humor. Fighting this guy was a shame, Kouji would’ve liked to be able to go toe to toe with this man in a different environment, but that wouldn’t happen now.
[break][break]
”I’ll pass, but maybe once I beat the crap outta you, I’ll use you for squats, been meaning to get some new weights.” He said with a smirk, his eyes fixed on his opponent across from him, he slide one of his legs forward, arm braced to begin a fight.
[break][break]
”It ain’t lifting rockets, but it’s a home workout, so I’ll just have’ta adjust.” His hand went for his pokeball, it was a clear showing before he threw it out. Urshifu stood there, a menacing aura emanating from Qing the moment that he stepped into the battlefield.
[break][break]
He’d been raring for it, being close to the place that he was born.
[break][break]
”Hope you’re ready.”

His hungry smile shrunk turning it into a sad one at the almost bittersweet realization of something.

He probably had just found a kindred spirit.

Still the circumstances of them meeting meant that they would have to see another side of Kaz, one that was more opposing than brotherly, thanks to his duty today. If only they had met somewhere they could probably hash it out, become buds, maybe even go out for a drink or two. Sometimes that's just how the die landed he supposed.

When the Urshifu was brought out though his blue feelings evaporated into pure laughter at the sight of it. There was no two ways around it, it had to be more than coincidence that the two guys he's met lately had that same fighting spirit as he did both had an Urshifu. Maybe these Pokemon really did resonate with people like that and just came to them naturally? Either way it added another layer of resentment for Kaz that these two couldn't have met in different circumstances.

"Well ain't that something. Hey did ya know? Urshifu make some pretty good workout buddies themselves." Reaching down to his belt he quickly grabbed a Pokeball to toss it and out came his own Urshifu. As he came to the field the aura coming off the other Urshifu quickly caught Domon's attention as he dropped into a battle stance, his own defiant aura spilling off of his body as his eyes pierced right into his opponent. Deep down he was excited to fight another of his kind so soon again but he could feel its urge to fight right down to his own bones.

So he decided to enact some intimidation of his own by flexing his muscles and letting them bulk up to their fullest. While his fellow brother might have some fierce energy Domon was going to show that between the two of them he had the more experienced body.

[attr="class","text"]
Kouji ran a hand through his hair, gripping his fringe between his fingers, he looked at the opponent across the way from him. The man he was fighting was someone worth getting a good scrap with.
[break][break]
He’d have to keep him alive.
[break][break]
”That they do, but mine wants to fight right after, makes him tough to handle. I’d love to fight ‘em, but…I don’t really have to explain how that’ll end up.”
[break][break]
Urshifu, Qing, looked at the one across from him, they were going to clash, to fight directly against one another; there was no point in playing around. He struck a stance, he was of the school of a singular strike, he ducked low, slid his foot forward.
[break][break]
Then charged forward, a powerful kick, it’s variation of Close Combat, a perfect form delivered to a reverse hip kick on an upwards arc, then going back down with an axe kick, seeking to bring his opponent down as soon as possible.
[break][break]
Yet, the smirk on the pokemon’s face showed that he wanted a proper fight, and he knew he would be getting it. He’d rely on his youthful energy, it’s chutzpah.
[break][break]
”Looks like these guys are gonna have their fun.”

[attr="class","fakebqooc"][break]

Domon's eyes focused on his brother Urshifu as it closed in on him. He could detect the intent behind his movements and with the first upward kick Domon jumped back, leaning back as his jump turned into a back flip to escape the axe kick as it came down and give him a little more breathing room. As he landed on his hand and knee he just continued to stare at the other fighting bear and let out a low growl. He could feel a slight sting along his chin where the other's foot just grazed him as he dodged their attack and it was starting to rile him up.

"Aw ya should give it a try. No pain no gain right? You'd be surprised what you can teach each other." Confidence was starting to rise within him as he gave the two of them a smile of satisfaction. They were aggressive which is good, it meant that the fight was going to be explosive and those were the kind that the two of them always get excited about in at least different ways. "Like how to read someone's body like a book."

[attr="class","text"]
Kouji began to roll his shoulders.
[break][break]
”Reading a human ain’t that hard, especially if you’ve been fighting for your life since you were a kid.” He rolled his other shoulder at that point in time, he was ready to get involved himself. Ever since he had gotten rolled on the ground by Zev Harcourt, he could only think about how to defend against takedowns better, how to counter and roll with Jiujitsu even better.
[break][break]
He was a striking specialist, just like his pokemon, Urshifu had been dodged, the created space and the growling, it was something that made his body pump up; his muscles tensed up, bulked up. His eyes began to glow as his muscles did the same, the other one moved fast, it was like fighting Absol.
[break][break]
It was detected in advance, and so he sought to try and counter that. ”Route RR.” He told Qing, who nodded before he struck a pose, it was a similar movement to before, but it was simply a feint before he went in for an Iron Head.
[break][break]
Kouji used that chance to dive in forward himself, low to the ground, ready to close the distance, a clear smirk on his face. ”Can’t let ‘em have all the fun.”

[attr="class","fakebqooc"][break]

Kaz's fingers couldn't help but curl themselves into fists as he saw the other man roll his shoulders and tense up his muscles. The tighter the fist grew the more his muscles began to flex. He was right, it was easy to read the human body if you've been fighting as a kid. Kazimir had been getting into scraps since he was little and he started properly training during adolescence so he was used to a little bit of rough housing. If this guy was thinking of trying to join in on the fun then who was Kaz to deny him?

Domon was the same, a beast that fought and trained for most of his life so reading movements was something he was used too. Of course there were times when that honed sense of battle lapsed. One was this time as it saw the feint a second too late and the Urshifu could feel his skull take the brunt of a devastating attack as he stumbled backward. As the bear stumbled he let one of his hands lay flat as he suddenly leaned forward and used his weight to stumble back into his opponent and aerial ace across his chest with a chop.

Kazimir fared better as he saw the man come in low and his body instantly move to bring his foot up in a kick to try and graze him across the face to throw off his path even by a degree. If he was lucky enough it might even hit him square in the chest to knock some wind out of his sails.

[attr="class","text"]
Kouji grinned as the kick grazed past his face as he was forced backwards, a slide across the sand. Taking a man this large to the ground was a mistake, even if he was proud of his Aikido, it was better to take it to a standing fight, even with those muscles he could respond fast enough. Kouji bounced on his heels as he felt a warmth drip down the side of his cheek, it was a sharp kick.
[break][break]
It was comfortable enough for Urshifu, the Aerial ace struck well, a line of blood fell down his chest, and he found himself bouncing in sync with his trainer, as if their fighting spirit was in sync.
[break][break]
His grown muscles had helped him somewhat, yet energy gathered around his fist, spinning at a high speed as Qing stepped forward, sand blew in both ways before he punched the pitch-black energy forward, a wicked blow.
[break][break]
As for Kouji, he had no special energies, or the ability to turn his muscles into armour, it was a simple matter of mind over matter, he began to move slowly, fast steps over the ground as sand was kicked up with him pushing his footwork. He opened up with a jab and then another, just at the edge of his range, before he stepped in for a leg kick.

[attr="class","fakebqooc"][break]

A smirk spread on Domon's face as the smell of blood reached his nostrils and awoke something deep within. It was a feeling that he only felt when he fought against @navy's Urshifu and now that he was fighting another one that same feeling of enjoyment was starting to creep up on him. The usually reserved Urshifu appreciated a good fight but now he was enjoying it a little and hoped he could get more out of it.

Watching his brother unleash their wicked blow against him he mimicked their movements and let loose his own wicked blow against them. The two blasts grazed one another as they passed over each other and Domon felt the impact smash right into his chest as it pushed him back. Luckily he was able to keep his feet on the ground as he left a trail in the sand before falling to a single knee breathing heavily and looking back up at Qing waiting for its next move.

Kazimir kept his eyes on his own foe and watched as they slowly approached him. Then he blinked and next thing he knew a fist was coming right at him and connected with his lower jaw followed by another fist hitting his chest and finally a leg that struck right at his ribs. The move recalled the memory of him fighting Zev Harcourt and gave him an idea to borrow from the Rocket. Acting as quick as he could he attempted to grab the man's leg with his large arm and try to turn and throw him to the side while holding onto his leg.

[attr="class","text"]
Kouji’s leg was grabbed, but he didn’t want to tussle with a man this large…Attacking in this position was too dangerous, so he had no choice but to follow along with the arc of the throw, jumping in the direction that Kaz was spinning in. Before he knew it, Kouji was in the air, it was an impressive amount of strength, and a strong arc; adjusting before he landed; he just about managed to land on his feet, skidding across the floor.
[break][break]
As for Urshifu, Qing felt the shock of the two Wicked Blow’s scraping against one another, the dark energies shot off light lightning in ever direction, before he felt Domon’s fist impact against his chest, sending him backwards, he flipped and corrected himself before he got down into a stance.
[break][break]
The fight between the two Urshifu was going to be intense, but for Kouji he had to concentrate on the fight in front of himself, it seemed that his more measured approach was working; he dashed in, fast footwork towards Kaz, he feinted a kick, before going for the overhand punch.
[break][break]
It was different for Qing who jumped forward with a powerful iron head.

[attr="class","fakebqooc"][break]

[attr="class","credit"]

Domon's eyes kept themselves trained on Qing even as they jumped into the air ready to strike down the Urshifu. Pushing himself to his feet Domon was ready to brace himself for the attack in whatever way possible. Even take it head on if he had to. Then his chest felt a slash of pain race across it stopping him as he barely planted his other foot on the ground. He glanced down in response only to remember that he was fighting and looked back up, only he took one second too long to do so as he watched Qing's face dive right into him.

There was a loud CRACK as the two bear's foreheads met one another and they could feel each other's breath. Qing had theirs reinforced with the force of iron while Domon's was only flesh and bone. The bear was silently aghast as a streak of red traveled down his forehead and his eyes were rolling into the back of his head. The Urshifu only fell to his knees as darkness surrounded him and the last he heard was the sound of the waves of the sea.

Kazimir had managed to throw the man and watched as he managed to land on his feet and silently cursed him in his head. The guy was good, a little too good. He wanted this to last but he knew that it couldn't. Not right now. He needed to end this and quickly. Watching the guy suddenly rush at him an idea formed in his head as his body moved to block the kick letting his arm tuck itself in to block it. That's when the leg stopped and a fist came right into his cheek.

The punch sent him crumpling to the floor in a heap as his whole body went limp as it kicked up sand. It seemed like the old saying was true, "the bigger they are the harder they fall". It seemed like both trainer and Pokemon had been knocked out.

At least that what it "seemed" like as a before a minute passed by a chuckle rose up from Kaz's body. "Oh man...that was a hell of a punch." He pulled himself together and pushed himself off the ground and back onto his feet until he was towering over Kouji again with a big smile on his face and a bit of blood coming down the side of his mouth that was quickly lapped up by his tongue. "If we didn't have to do this I might have just invited ya to a night at the gym. Real one on one time, but..." His hand pulled back and shot forward as an uppercut aimed for the man's solar plexus, "WE'RE NOT PLAYING RIGHT DOMON!"

The trainer's words echoed into Domon's ear and snapped his conscious back to life as the spark inside of him ultrally burst and his arms shot forward. It wasn't just one punch but many, surging strikes right into Qing's body from Domon's kneeling position to catch his brethren while they were as close as they could be for him.

[attr="class","text"]
Surging strikes was right, it wasn’t the first time Kouji had seen that form of Urshifu, Navy had Shuwen, Qing’s twin brother, but this was the first time he had witnessed the pokemon change.
[break][break]
Qing hadn’t expected it either, it was a surge of strikes, that continually flowed into one another; like a flood, overwhelming his Urshifu until he was thrown back, it was a powerful blow. He didn’t know what this Phenomenon was, but Kouji couldn’t afford to hold back in this moment as Urshifu was thrown backwards, skipping across the sand before he landed flatly on his back.
[break][break]
Kouji was distracted by that sight, his enemy had returned with a new amount of vigor, the blow landed solidly; the force was enough to kick the air out of his lungs. His feet left the ground, before he was shot upwards, land on his back, and skip against the ground.
[break][break]
That was one hell of a blow, that was all Kouji could think about in that moment, he felt the blow that took the life out of him. His head was swimming from a lack of oxygen, he knew that if he closed his eyes, he wouldn’t open them for days.
[break][break]
He felt a rumbling from his side, Urshifu lifted himself onto his feet, punching down at the sand, as if the vibrations of the blow were supposed to wake Kouji up. He couldn’t fall behind his own Urshifu, could he now?
[break][break]
He forced himself back to his own feet, with such a strong blow to his body, he couldn’t depend on outlasting his opponent, Kaz was strong. No. ”Let’s not play around either, they’re strong.” He took out his knife, a crystal embedded in its base which shone in a myriad of colors, an empowering rainbow.
[break][break]
Mega Evolution, the phenomenon that pushed his Urshifu to the next stage, power surged out of each of his pours, red energy blew the sand into every direction. The force of wind that blew outwards seemed to suck back in, as the energy spiralled around his fist, the sand did the same, before he stepped forward and shot the G-Max One Blow at his brethren.
[break][break]
Kouji looked at the knife in his hand, before he shook his head, stocking it away again, he was going to finish this one with his fist. He stepped forward, hinted at kicking down at Kaz’ shin, before he lowered his hip, and kicked at the man’s throat.

[attr="class","fakebqooc"][break]

[attr="class","credit"]

As the wind from the energy that gathered around his brother belted against Domon he raised his arms up to protect his eyes from it and the sand. In between the small space between his arms as he saw a familiar sight. He knew the form that Qing took on, he could recognize it no matter what as it was one that he took a few times so this rush of power that he could feel pour from his brother was almost nostalgic. It brought a smile to his face as he braced himself.

Then the g-max one blow nearly took him off his feet as it pushed him back along the sand. Even if he was blocking it with both his arms the heat from the blow was starting to burn his arms. Still he knew he would have to fight through the pain and he was going to take the first step by literally planting his foot into the sand to stop himself from being thrown even farther.

Kazimir watched as the knife was taken out and then put away, a wave of relief came and left as it did. For a second he was worried this guy would go full Rocket and try to stab him while they fought. Seemed like the guy really did want to settle this with his fists, a man after Kazimir's own heart. As he gave himself a second to feel some relief it disappeared when he saw the man swing his leg down at Kaz's hip. Or so he thought as looking down gave him the opportunity to suddenly move his foot to meet with Kaz's throat and sent the man falling onto his back choking on air or lack of it. Out of the corner of his eye he could see his Urshifu trying his best to survive and he knew that if one of them were going to get out of this he'd prefer his partner making it safely out of here, so through the coughing fit he found himself in he did his best to strike a pose.

Kaz's body flashed with bright light that suddenly surged from Kaz to Domon as the Urshifu roared back as he felt his body re energized. Ice cold winds suddenly gathered around the beaten Urshifu's body as he clenched his fist and started to push forward again. As the icy winds swirled around him it centered itself around his fist as chunks of ice started to form a large spiked fist on the Urshifu's hand as it swung it right at Mega Qing with a sub zero slammer.
