the mega evolution disturbs the pace enough for kyle to realize how he's falling back to his habits. he starts to cut loose after seeing the challenge presented to him and his pokemon.

his speech pattern changes.

"big beedrill coming at you, kilo. what are you going to do now?"

the poochyena barks despite the numbing of the poison by the area hit of its opponent. it's ready for the challenge and runs up to the mega evolved pokemon, trying to finesse its way with play rough.

short, precise instructions were left for the poochyena, though it probably doesn't need it given the sync of their sygna suit.

"steady. get ready."

when the beedrill decided to charge in, the poochyena steels itself on the spot. there's no need to waste energy to close in the distance itself when the beedrill was doing so as well.

it matches the move with dragon hammer, parrying the attack with a heavy blow.

he laughs awkwardly.

"haha, yeah, as long as you're with me, i'm sure it'll like you better." compared to him, at least.

tapu koko wasn't necessarily a pokemon that belonged to someone in the league, but having aligned itself with them, its whereabouts are known to those that have the authority kyle was one of them.

they find it eventually, flashing a scornful look at the avatar that could've been his. he flashes it an apologetic smile before turning back to cian.

"why do you want to meet him anyways?"

perhaps it was a question he should have asked before bringing cian here. he just accepted his request when he had been asked, knowing that there's probably no deep meaning behind it.

"just make use of the rain, please." the manectric he uses was a twin with his own from the hatchery. kyle is aware of its moves. "my manectric can't really touch the sandaconda."

his words bring a target to matias' own manectric if lam does pick up on his words, but if matias wants to play around, kyle is more than capable of bringing the game to him.

still, he isn't the type to grief his games.

"take the clefairy away from the fight, cormag."

the disarming voice was disorienting for the manectric, but it endures through and forces its legs to move about. with a quick attack, the pokemon rushes the clefairy and pushes it further away from the sandaconda until the distance is considerable enough to weaken friend guard.

"you think so? the pokemon known for working in groups?"

kyle lopez, a person who would rather work things out on his own than bother people, and would spend time cooped up in his room playing video games or reading novels, was a poochyena in matias' eyes.

he smiles on the thought.

the poochyena, on the other hand, wasn't smiling. it's ready to fight and grr at the cat, matching its move with one of its own: a dragon hammer right on its face as it gets closer.

"wyrdeer." the answer comes quick without even a hint of question. "better to have it on a pokemon you can count on, right?"

ollie's pikachu might be his favorite, but it was always the wyrdeer that he sees when he's out and about in his ranger missions or other responsibilities regarding the region's safety.

"who do you have in mind?"

as the question is bounced back to the head ranger, the poochyena powers through the disarming voice, and when it got impatient, rushes through the torrent of painful notes with shadow sneak.

"play distance!"

running in would make it easier for the projectiles to hit, while keeping space between them wouldn't keep the poochyena close enough to throw its own attacks.

fortunately, it has a single ranged move.

the glint on its eye throws a delayed attack with its future sight as it runs around, dodging the attack. it's a slow and methodological play, but one that is bound to bore the champion in a for fun tournament.

Victoria Beckett likes this

the matchup shows how it wasn't in the poochyena's favor by the way the lucario decimates him.

speed usually was their go to edge, and a smaller hitbox helps it find angles that pokemon usually weren't aware of, but something as agile and observant as a lucario probably wouldn't fall for tricks like that.

the poochyena does its best, throwing a dragon hammer on the lucario to fight back to its last breath.

"i would be bragging if i told you how my matches went," he humble brags. "besides, it's about playing for fun around here. you better not spoil the atmosphere, alright?"

he readies his pokemon, his poochyena, as he takes his place. only then does he show off the sygna suit he has on him.

"how do you like my suit?" he asks matias. "better than the smeargle one or nah?"

vct was the debut of his sygna suit, having preferred the smeargle sygna suit on most operations that needed one. while the earlier design was for function over form, his mightyena one was definitely birthed from the idea of looking nice with his poochies.

that was kyle's style in battle, after all: playing it defensive until there's a mistake to capitalize on. it's boring, but it's safe.

"they're going all," he relays to his poochyena. "just go loose. our usual thing isn't going to matter now."

eva did have the right response against a battler like kyle.

the poochyena gives it its all as well, charging at the machamp with a dragon hammer. there's no thought given in this one last attack, as a reckless attack is a gamble for a pokemon like his poochyena.

kyle tilts his head with a blank smile as her reaction causes him his own confusion. he wonders if it's a sensitive topic, but it's pushed aside by his own knack for causing grief to his close friends.

he's brought back to reality when the sound of his poochyena's yip hits his ears. it tries to fire back with its dragon hammer to drive the arbok away after sinking its fangs on it.

"oh!" he guesses a connection. "but that's the perfect for navy's position in a band."

he does prefer being the lead guitarist after all.

"maybe i'll practice the drums," he muses. "he'll freak out if he finds out we can do a band without him. do you have any ideas for who you want as the guitarist?"

"ugh. it's not fun if there only one good outcome for both of us."

it's a loss for both him and noah if he loses, as far as he knows. he's not even sure if noah was just sweet talking him or if he really thinks so.

on hind sight, he probably does dream about being called noah lopez.

"what's stopping you from taking my surname then?"

too distracted by the chat, kyle's own confusion transfers over to the poochyena through the sygna suit's sync, causing it to panic in the midst of the fight against the toxicroak.

the poochyena dragon hammers the ground for a smoke screen, scattering dust and dirt in the area to blind the frog and give himself some breathing room.

"ah, i visited that place last year too," he'd say. "that's probably where he got it then, huh."

and the poochyena wasn't going to shy away from showing it off if it's the topic of the conversation between the trainers.

it pounces at the bird, ready to recklessly dragon hammer it down from the air, fearing nothing but falling flat on the ground should the attack miss and he fails on making himself look good.
