Raju stepped out of the Pokemon Center and headed back to the battlefield. He hadn't had any good luck the last few rounds. Or just been plain outdid. Whatever the case, hopefully this next match would go a lot better. Nothing else, a lot better showing. By the time he got there, the next fight had just gotten done, and he was up next. Throwing out a pokeball, he released his gigantic Blaze Breed Tauros with a bull ring in his nostrils. "Raju Mystic. And this is Big Bert." The bull snarled a bit, hungry for a win more than usual after a string of losses. He was really wanting to wreck something. And Raju didn't blame him. It's Been very frustrating to say the least.

The sight of the strangely-colored Tauros made his eyes widen for a few moments—Tauros normally didn’t look like that!

“Where’d you find that Tauros? They’re so huge!”

His own blue-plumed Braviary was already waiting on his side of the arena, all fired up and ready.

“Let’s have a good one!”

The blond's next opponent evidently haven't seen a Paldean Tauros before. Not too surprising he supposed. "He's a Paldean Blaze Breed Tauros. There's three different kinds in Paldea, with the Blaze and Aqua breeds being harder to find." Was that a shiny Braviary? Such a cool looking bird. Not to mention a good find. And it looked ready for a fight. Having a type disadvantage stunk, but could be overcome. When the announcer said battle begin, the bull charged the flying creature. Instead of a fire move, like what they've done in the previous few, psychic energy swirled around the front of BB, focusing on his head for a Zen Headbutt, jumping to meet the bird.

“Thanks for letting me know!” he was able to blurt out before the bell rang and their match got started—even the Braviary was raring to go, all things considered.

Staring down the incoming black-colored Tauros, the avian Pokémon would then attempt to meet them in the middle with an Aerial Ace attack, because holy shit those horns looked sharp—and could gore an eye out if given the chance!

Alexei was able to blurt out a thanks just before the fight started. The Braviary hit with an Aerial Ace. And succeeded, while avoiding the horns and the Zen Headbutt. That was pretty skillful, to be honest. Typically, something would have had to hit. BB stumbled back, shaking his head. It hurt...but BB was still able to after the bird. Charging again, the Blaze Breed's horns glowed red as he used a flaming Raging Bull. The bull would even jump to meet the bird in the air and force it down. Problem was actually hitting the birb in such a way that it would force it down to BB's domain. Part of why flying types were so annoying for his Tauros...

Thankfully the first attack would connect; however that would seemingly be the end of his good luck streak as the Tauros then rounded on their hooves, before literally lowering their head and catching the Braviary by surprise on the horns and getting hit in the process—

The loud, painful squawk of pain made him cringe; however he held firm.

“Stand strong!” he called towards his Braviary, who would then attempt to retaliate with a Rock Slide attack!

…even if he knew that the Tauros’s latest attack had struck true.

The Tauros's Raging Bull hit, forcing the birb down. But then it used another super effective attack. A Rock Slide. There was a chance of flinching with that attack too...assuming BB endures it. Still, the bull undeterred, charging again with Flame Charge to get close and pound it again. Problem was dodging enough of them so it didn't hurt him that match. Big Bert wasn't known for dodging, just plowering through whatever is thrown his way. Not always the best plan or idea. Especially when the attacks were super effective ones. Great on Alexei for giving his bird something to defend itself against other birds though.

The Braviary would shake his head, because ouch that really hurt!

Realizing that he had to come in for a landing, the blue-plumed avian kept an eye on the Tauros that was coming in fast, body literally on fire and—

“Whoa!” he yelped, wondering if the Braviary had enough force and pull to carry the black-colored Tauros upward while he waited for the Sky Drop attack to connect—

He knew that Braviary were strong enough to supposedly carry cars into mid-air, but… this was going to be a test of strength, now!

The Rock Slide actually stopped Big Bert in his tracks. Stumbling off to one side after quite literally running into a thrown rock, more bad news came. The pretty bird closed in and latched onto the Tauros, and picked up him up! Big Bert started to struggle, horns glowing red with Raging Bull, just trying to get out of its grasp. The Bravairy was barely able to heft him up, but it was pretty iffy if it'll be strong enough to get a struggling BB up and off the ground enough to complete its attack. Raju hoped not, but Tauros was really weak right now....

He knew that the Braviary was strong enough to carry loads slightly bigger than himself, but even then he was struggling because oof, this was heavy!

Struggling with the strain of bringing the Tauros up into the air, he was caught by surprise when the attack connected, which forced him to drop the ‘payload’ much earlier than expected (this attack usually resolved with an aerial version of a piledriver) however he knew that in order to keep going, he had to cut his losses early!

…and then followed up with a surprise avalanche of Rock Slide boulders because he could!

This match was getting pretty close to the wire…

The pick up and drop was successful, and BB dropped like a ton of bricks. Once the dust settled, it showed the big guy knocked out. Well, they gave a good showing. Just not a good enough of one. Returning his beast, Raju walked up to the lad and offered a handshake. It was a good match after all. Better than a lot of his losses anyways. So he wasn't disappointed in this performance. After doing the handshake, and nodding to his opponent, the blonde walked off to get his beasty treatment. Though it wouldn't be until much later that maybe he should have told Alexei that not all Paldean Tauros was that large. But oh well, maybe he'll find out eventually.

“I know Tauros are large, but yours is a special one,” he remarked as he clambered onto the stage to shake the young man’s hand.

“I’ll definitely keep an eye out for one of them! Who knows if they’ve already reached Hoennian shores, I may as well catch one for myself.”

With that, he would acknowledge his newest win, before being shooed off the stage for the next match.

Alex takes the well-fought W
