Aaron walked into the gym, for the first time in a while, actually a little nervous. Gyms were supposed to be tough, true, but the Silph badge was supposed to be one of the toughest out there to get here in Hoenn. That also made him excited. With five badges in tow, this would be his sixth. Two more to go if he earned it. This was Dragapult's first time in a gym setting, but not Magnezone's first rodeo. He hoped his strategy worked out. The man wasn't a type or theme specialist, so he wasn't predictable at all. 

He was led out into the battlefield. With a respectful bow, the five foot four blond introduced himself. "I'm Aaron Toral. Pleasure to meet you." His normally monotone voice shook with both nerviousness and excitement. The guy already knew what Pokemon Aaron was going to bring, so might as well get to it. Taking out two Pokeballs, he released Dragapult and Magnezone, both of whom gave off an impressive aura. They were well trained. But it would be enough for this test of power?

A TEST OF POWER


SYPNOSIS



“FERNANDO SILPH,” is a name that needs no introduction. despite this, the slateport gym goes through all the standard procedures. plain and simple, untainted by the many decorations and gimmicks that other gyms pride themselves on.

a trainer with five badges is quite the accomplishment,” he states. “i look forward to seeing what you can do.

solemn words that undercut the pokeballs that sit in each of his hands. with a soft lob, they populate his side of the field with a RHYDON and SPECTRIER.

battle routine set!

he spares not even a moment before trying to steal the tempo of the battle. his pokemon reflect that, with the RHYDON satisfied with its positioning, and the SPECTRIER raring with a stomp of its hooves.

execute!

The man was professional. Ace expected that...Fernado was many things, once a Council member, CEO, and who knows what else. Still, it also excited him that the man wanted to see what he could do as well. The first Pokemon the man sent was a Rhydon. Lightning Rod would be a troublesome thing to deal with, assuming it had it. The problem was the unknown Pokemon the guy sent out. Taking out his Pokedex, Aaron identified it as a Spectrier, a ghost-type Pokemon. That...was one he needed to get in his team. Both of Fernado's Pokemon were ready, and as soon as it was a go, Aaron started his opening gambit.

"Flash Cannon that Rhydon. Dragapult, Dragon Dance." It was a slight deviation, but best to take out that Rhydon as soon as possible so he could use Zap Cannon. The Kanto Pokemon's defenses were notoriously good, and hit hard. That one he knew some about. The Spectrier was a mystery to him. If he could paralyze it, it would give him a distict advantage. The speed and power boost from the Dragon Dance was sure to come in handy. Magnazone fired off a silver-white ball of energy that was Flash Cannon while Dragapult danced with a brownish-maroon aura around her, slinking her way closer to the rock-ground type. He kept an eye on the ghost horse. Ace hated not knowing at least the basic capabilities of the species, but there was little to do besides react when it made its move.
