>88 on the cooking roll!
While Mimikyu is by far the most talented cook that you know you must admit that Gareth is a better teacher, he’s easy to understand and doesn’t miss the chance to give you some pointers. Under his tutelage, you managed to make some decent burgers, even by humans’ standards!
>Cooking abilities raised from “Danger to society” to “Really bad”
>Learned dish: Burgers.
Now you are prepared for a minimum wage job at any Burger chain! Great!
Still, grilling a burger is fairly simple, you still have ways to go if you want to make other dishes.

As the sun sets on the beach your little groups huddle together in a circle, Gareth starts a small campfire in the center to set the mood. Meanwhile, Dick sets some fireworks with the help of Aleida who’s been trying her hardest to cheer him up after what happened between him and his older brother.

Professor Maple´s drunken ass is still on the Villa, Kali and Jeanne are probably there too.

All of the mons are playing around the shore, minding their own business and enjoying this bit of freedom their trainers have given them.

You decide to enjoy these last moments of your free day by the side of Eli. You sit by her side, the Pink haired punk acknowledges you with a grin.

[Eli]: Sup bitch, did you miss me?
[Percy]: Not as much as you did.
[Eli]: Pfft, yeah, right.

She drops the playfully coarse tone as she closes the distance between the two of you, her bare thigh rubbing against yours, it still makes your heart race.

[Eli]: Hey, all of the bad shit that happened aside, this been a pretty great day.

[Eli]: So, thanks for the idea dweeb. I needed to unwind a little bit.

[Eli]: Hey, by the way…

[Percy]: Huh, what’s the matter?

[Eli]: Eh. Nah, forget it, it’s some dumb shit.

[Eli]: So, what’s on your mind nerd?

Felling a bit concerned you decide to press on about that “dumb shit”, she tried to dismiss it at first but after some insistence on your part, she started to talk.

[Eli]: Forget it, it’s nonsense.

[Percy]: C’mon, I’m trying to understand you a little better.

[Percy]: Is this about Jeanne trying to kiss me?

[Eli]: Eh, not really, people do some really stupid stuff when they get shitfaced

[Percy]: Talking from experience?

[Eli]: Sorta.

Eli spoke with a strangely solemn tone, as she seemed to get lost in thought for a moment, but she quickly returned to a laxer demeanor.

[Eli]: Anyways, I’m just kinda pissed that she went for you.

[Percy]: So, you are getting jealous!

[Eli]: No, I just wanna know if there are any other “romantic rivals” I should keep my eyes open for.

[Eli]: Should I get ready to bust some knees?

[Percy]: In a metaphorical or literal sense?

[Eli]: I’m ready for both

[Percy]: Please abstain from physical violence.

[Eli]: Relax dude, I’m just joking.

[Eli]:So, are there any 7 evil exes I need to defeat in combat?

[Eli]: Any girls that might want some of your nerd meat?

[Eli]: …any guys?

The idea of other girls liking your awkward ass is simply laughable. You still can’t fully believe Eli does. Easing her worries shouldn’t be difficult

[Percy]: I’m pretty sure Jeanne is the only girl outside of my family that actually likes me in any capacity.

[Percy]: Everyone else seems to tolerate my weirdness at best.

[Victoria]: I find you endearing Percival.

You mentally thank Victoria for her input “Aww geez, thanks Vick”, feeling like a cool older brother figure.

[Victoria]: I said endearing, not cool.

“Ouch” you reply to Victoria before continuing your conversation with Eli.

[Percy]: I did have a share of crushes though, which my parents found depressingly reassuring. (Your mind briefly wanders to the memories of your parents finding you licking a poster in your room)

[Eli]: Oh, crushes? Tell me more weirdo.

[Percy]: Like, uh, well, do you know that one Gym Leader, the one that uses fairy types and does idol stuff?

[Percy]: I’m not a die-hard fan (Yes you are) but, she rocks a mean cosplay.

[Eli]: …So, cosplay? (Snicker) Do you want me to wear some Skitty ears and purr into your neck or sumthin?

[Percy]: I feel like I should say no, but I really want to say yes. Also, I’d prefer something more “Pancham” themed

[Eli]: Hahahaha! Dude, dial it back a little. I’ll keep it in mind tho.

>>3836397

[Percy]: What about you? Do you have any suitors that might be out for my blood?


[Eli]: Actually, there’s been a couple of dudes who’ve been trying to get me to travel with them or join their shitty wannabe gang after I beat their asses.

[Eli]: Some get real persistent so I have to knock some sense into them.

Of course, she would have other guys after her, she’s a great battler, fun to be around, and she looks great. Who wouldn’t want to travel with her?

The thought of all the guys who might be after her gives you a nagging feeling of insecurity that makes you ask:

[Percy]: Have you ever thought of going with one of them?

[Eli]: The fuck you sayin man? I can’t leave our little group, you and College boy would be dead without me.

Eli slaps your back with a bit too much force, shaking you a little bit.

[Eli]: And act with more confidence! I mean, I choose you, for the long run.

[Eli]: Like a starter Pokémon, ya know?

[Percy]: …

[Eli]: Weirdo? U ok?

Being compared to a “starter Pokémon” is the most moving thing anybody has ever said to you and that’s a bit sad.

Shit, you are tearing up a little. If your gramps was here, he would call you a sissy.

>Pass. Kept you cool in front of Eli.

You manage to hold back the tears, trying to keep calm and confident but you still can’t help smiling like a doofus. You tell Eli that you’ve never been better, she laughs at your sappiness and calls you lame as she leans into your chest and the fireworks illuminate the sky.

….

After spending some time relaxing with Eli and your friends, you return to the villa to get some rest. All of your mons sans Houndour were spent after playing all day and were deeply asleep.

As you made your way towards your room, Houndour notices something using his keen senses of smell and hearing. He detects the sound of female voices and the smell of booze coming from your room. The door is slightly open, peeking trough you notice Kali and Eli sitting in your bed, drinking away their problems. They don’t seem to realize you are standing there.


[Jeanne]: Alright, now type “TFW no qt 3.14 Arsonist BF” and attach a picture of a sad cartoon Politoed.

[Kali]: Why do you have so many pictures of sad Politoeds?

[Jeanne]: BECAUSE, some of those are very rare, or something. I dunno, j-j-just post it. I’m too d-drunk to type.

[Kali]: Alright, alright… they called you a fag.

[Kali]: Why do you go to this website?

[Jeanne]:H-hey You l-l-look like the type who knows all about guys, you m-m-must have, like a-a-all the guys eating from your palm.


[Kali]: I don’t mean to brag but I do have quite the list of admirers and the like.

[Jeanne]: Th-then, c-could, you , you know…

[Jeanne]: Like, help m-m-me out in t-that area, more specifically in the kissing department.

[Kali]: O-Oh. Do you want some advice? I guess I could give you some pointers? I’m not sure if…

[Jeanne]: I meant, like, a more p-p-practical approach.

[Kali]: I’m not sure if that’s a great idea.

[Jeanne]: Don’t worry, I-I-t doesn’t count if it’s practice right? And we a-a-are both girls.

[Kali]: Well, I guess it wouldn’t hurt, nobody has to know...


Houndour turns to you and quietly scoffs. “Your species is full of deviants”

You decide to step forward into your room and stop them from making a mistake they’ll most likely regret the morning after.

As Jeanne starts to wobbly lean onto Kali you enter the bedroom before they go any further. You notice that the floor is littered with various amounts of trash, empty beer cans, and what looks like some “Cleanse Tags” and straw dolls? It’s a bit eerie.

[Percy]: Guys, could you not do this in my room? It’s creeping me out.

Kali looks shocked, like a deerling caught in headlights. Your sudden presence snapped her out of her stupor and made her realize what she was about to do.
She stands up and heads out of the room. She looks at you for a moment, trying to articulate an explanation for her actions but she ultimately is at a loss of words.

[Kali]:My duty here is done, I’m going back to my hotel, Arcanine will escort me so you don’t have to worry about me, goodnight.

She says in a monotonous almost robotic tone, and then she quickly rushes out of the villa.

>You’ve stopped Kali and Jeanne from partaking in drunken make outs, this might have a long-standing effect on the relationship between these two.

After Kali is gone, you turn towards Jeanne who is still lying on top of your bed, smiling coyly at you as she plays with her hair awkwardly.


[Jeanne]: Could you read me a bedtime story?

[Percy]: Jeanne, go to your room with Professor Maple, you are drunk.

[Jeanne]: But I want to sleep hereeee. With you. Like beforeee.

[Jeanne]: Remember when we had pajama parties as kids? You’d fall asleep in my lap while watching some late night Pokémon nature shows, and I’d ruffle your hair when you didn’t notice.

[Jeanne]: It was like really having a family.

[Jeanne]: I miss that.

[Jeanne]: I k-k-know that you found… friends, and someone special to you…

[Jeanne]: But, just for tonight. I just want to feel needed, by someone…

[Jeanne]: P-p-please, hop onto the bed, we’ll just c-c-cuddle

[Jeanne]: I won’t bite…

[Jeanne]: U-unless you want me to?

If we explained the situation to Eli she would be more likely to understand, that is if we're caught, but her pokemon would most certainly bite us in the ass for this.

You decide to humor her for a bit, it shouldn’t take long for Jeanne to fall asleep, then you can carry her back to her room without any problem.

You sit on the side of the bed, making some distance between you and her. She crawls towards and rests her head in your lap

She childishly demands head pats.

You awkwardly oblige.

Then she demands you to tell her she’s a good girl and that she’s worth something.

You try to find the right words but can only come up with some half-baked Pokémon analogies. Your mind is too tired to think some good ones up.

Then she starts to wrap her arms around you, while she tries to ineffectually pin you down onto the bed. Insisting that she wants some cuddles, you briefly consider giving in to her demands since they seem harmless enough but then she starts to nibble on your neck quite aggressively.

It’s making you very uncomfortable.


[Houndour]: Hey, Partner, someone’s coming. You might want to do something about your situation.

Why didn't you count "OK THAT'S ENOUGH"s as letting her down gently for the purposes of the tiebreaker. I voted for "OK THAT'S ENOUGH," not because I didn't want to sleep in the same bed as her, and I kind of didn't care how gentle we handled the situation. It's a lot closer to "let her down gently" than "okay you seem cool, get in."

>>3839705
Sorry anon, you are right, I only thought of that choice as a way to see Percy's limits and patience when dealing with a perceived friend. And add it to his character, I know he can tell randoms and assholes to fuck off, but I wanted to know if he can tell it to a friend.

I saw it as a choice between:

>Putting himself first and foremost and stand his ground. / "THAT'S ENOUGH"

>Catering to others' needs out of politeness./ Humor her until she fell asleep.

>And completely bending to others needs/ Do what she wants.

And missed the obvious "Keeping Jeanne in the room" and "Kick Jeanne out the room" part which is more important.

Also, it would have led to a different scenario with Percy blowing up in front of Jeanne from all his stress and frustrations. He really wanted to have a day to kick back and relax and Jeanne just kept fucking it up.

Dick casually strolls onto the room seemingly tired but in an overall better mood. He doesn’t seem to notice your predicament at first.

[Dick]: Don’t worry Percival, childhood friends are harmless.

[Dick]: Their chances of winning are always close to null. Especially if they were introduced out of the blue and shoved into the plot without any prior hints of their existence.

[Dick]: If they were never addressed before in any manner it can only mean that the protagonist couldn’t care less about them until they suddenly reinserted themselves into their lives. (Sigh) Such lazy writing.

[Dick]:Oh, sorry, were you referring to Jeanne?

[Percy]: YES.

Dick calls out his Gallade to use “Hypnosis” on Jeanne, once she’s asleep the two of you carry her to her room and tuck the girl in.

Dick tells you he was looking for Jeanne, he wanted to sincerely apologize for his previous treatment of her. He’ll need to wait for tomorrow once she’s awake and most importantly sober.

[Percy]: Thanks bro, I didn’t know what to do there.

[Dick]:Do not worry Percival, Gentleman of our caliber can’t help but attract the fair gender. It’s a curse we have to bear.

Seeing Dick back to his usual self is a bit reassuring.
--------------
Monday.
23 days left before the fall of Adage Village.
Monday. 9:00 pm, 14th day of your Journey.


The next morning you are having some breakfast with the rest of your friends. Gareth, Eli, and Dick are all looking suspiciously awkward for some reason, Gareth, in particular, seems perturbed for some reason.

That’s strange you are sure only Dick, Houndour and you are aware of what transpired last night.

Professor Maple seems deeply regretful of her actions, apologizing profusely to you and your friends.

Jeanne is nursing a pretty bad hangover, she doesn’t seem to recall anything that happened yesterday after she started drinking, besides some hazy memories of her battle with Dick.

[Jeanne]: Oh dear Poké-God, I-I-I can’t believe that I drank a-a-alcohol, I-I-I’m not even 18, Oh g-G-gosh, what will I tell the priest? Why d-d-didn’t anyone s-s-top me?

[Gareth]: Sorry, I realized that it was alcohol when it was too late. Please don’t tell anyone.

[Jeanne]: I’m deeply ashamed. I hope I wasn’t a much of a nuisance. D-d-did I do anything b-b-bad under the effects of the devil’s juice?

Eli seems to be fuming at Jeanne, she is ready to chew her out.

With a stern tone, you reprimand Jeanne for everything she did yesterday while drunk, irresponsibly picking up fights with your friends and almost molesting you, twice. You don’t spare any details. Jeanne can’t do anything else look down in shame as her face turns red as she shuffles uncomfortably in her seat while her eyes start to water.

[Percy]: I wanted to make things right with you. Be a friend. But god damn, you make it hard.

[Eli]: Also, you snuck into my room babbling some shit about being Percy’s big sis and not letting him go so easily.

[Gareth]: And you puked in the bathroom floor, not cool

[Jeanne]: OH GOD, I’M SO SO SORRY, I-I-I-IGOTTAGO.

>Jeanne feels too awkward to interact with you or your friends.

A nervous Jeanne runs back to her room for her belonging and rushes out of the Villa with Mareep in her hands. You hear the sounds of a Pokéball releasing a mon followed by the roars of an Aerodactyl. From the window, you see Jeanne on top of the Arsonist’s Aerodactyl fleeing the scene.


Once she left, things returned to normalcy. Sort of.

Noticing things are a bit awkward Gareth decides to change the subject.

[Gareth]: Hey Percy, have you gotten your Gym Badge yet?

[Percy]: Not really, I’ve been busy with. Stuff.

[Gareth]: I think we should give it a shot today after all the beach is going to close up soon.


[Eli]: Yeah, we should probably hit the road soon or we won’t be able to get a ride to our next destination.

[Percy]:Why?

[Gareth]: It was on the news earlier. There’s a storm forming near the coast.

[Eli]: It’s some weird shit, a blizzard forming in the middle of the ocean and moving towards the coast.

[Aleida]: It may be a sign, an old legend said. “When humans stray from the ways of nature. The Heavenly Dragon will descend from the skies and free the Entombed One from his imprisonment.”

[Aleida]: “The ensuing conflict will shake the earth to its core and cleanse the world to start anew, with the victor deciding the path this world will take.”

[Aleida]: Or global warming, I’ve been reading about that! It’s pretty bad!

Seems like you haven’t got much time left to stay here in Lacrimosa Bay. But you think it was time to challenge the Water Gym anyway.

The only problem is that Mimikyu hasn't fully recovered yet.

Sustaining a heavy injury right now could have some long-lasting effects in Mimikyu’s Health, but his speed and *Wood Hammer* could certainly give you an edge in the upcoming battles at the Gym.

Before heading out you give Prince the *King’s Rock* it may give him an edge during today’s battle and it could give him some stylish points with the judges.

>Gave Prince the *King’s Rock*

He seems a bit unsure, not really feeling like a King as his father so you try to pump him up.

[Percy]: You can win! You feel great! you can do this!

[Percy]: C’mon Loudred, help me out!

[Percy & Loudred.] YOU CAN WIN! YOU FEEL GREAT! YOU CAN DO THIS!

As the purplish mons joins in your chanting you manage to win over Prince who lets out a surprisingly adorable battle cry.


You decide to go alongside Gareth and finally challenge the Gym inside the resort. As you make your way inside you notice hordes of tourist packing things up and getting ready to leave the resort, most of them pretty pissed because of the sudden interruption to their vacation. You notice that some of their Pokémon seem strangely antsy and shaken, psychic types in particular.

The line of trainers waiting to enter the Gym is considerably shorter than other days, most of them seem to be opting to go through the obstacle course so they can get done with this as soon as possible. Gareth is going for the obstacle course since he doesn’t’ believe he is fit for the camera.

Time passes quite quickly as your team and Kadabra get ready for the gym. The psychic mon would prefer to not participate in regulated matches since he is technically not an official member of your team, he’s just here to see yours and Gareth’s battles.

Prince is currently boxing with Loudred’s help, it’s his time to shine and he wants to make his papa (you) proud. It’s also a good activity to ease his anxiousness.

Before you knew it, you are next. You are led to a small room where a trio of judges coldly stare you down and examine your mons, they don’t say much besides taking some notes. These guys are the ones who sill decide if you are fit to challenge “The Aquarium”, a maze-like construction where your battling style will be judged and qualified over how entertaining and effective it is.

After a while one of the judges speaks up, a well-dressed man who seems to mean business all the time.

[Judge #1]: So, Percival William. You’ve got quite the record. First place in the rookie tournament held in North Pass. You cooperated in the subjugation of the giant Hippowdon on the Whistling desert, and in the arrest of the criminal known as “the Arsonist”.

[Judge #2]: Now, the bad points. You’ve been temporarily banned from the Gym at Adage village, during the Rookie tournament you used an unnecessary amount of force against some of your opponents, there are rumors of you associating with criminals. And some people think that you are the real Arsonist or a copycat.

[Judge #3]: You seem to be quite the troublemaker. But what we want to know is, what do you offer to the table? Your Pokémon seems to be in good condition, but what about their trainer?

[Judge #1]: Why should we give you a shot here? Almost anyone can make a Pokémon battle, so what makes you “Professional Trainer” Material?

You are starting to feel a bit anxious, if it wasn’t for Daniel’s and Kali’s training you’d probably froze in the spot, still you manage to recompose yourself and get ready to answer.

>Avoided stage fright!

You can either play it safe or just act amicable enough using what Daniel taught you.

>I’m just a regular trainer, these guys are the real stars of the show! (Automatic pass, regular score)

Or try to make a real impression on them!

To pass the time I'll ask- What is Percy's favorite type?

>>3842698
Probably normal, as it's the type he fits into best.

>>3842730
I would think the same thing since he's lived in and near cities where normal types are most common.
I imagine the only way to speak to fighting types is through punches, kicking, and flexing.

>>3842698
I could also see fairy types, between the gym leader thing and Mr. Snob.

>>3845786
Try to be edgy.

You decide to play it safe and be humble. Directing the attention of the judges to your team of mons you play up their quirks and strength while showing your caring side as a trainer.

“These guys are the real stars of the show!” You try to act as polite and pleasant as possible as you introduce your team to the judges. The serious but fiery Houndour, the shy Pokémon royalty “Prince”, the friendly powerhouse Loudred and the mischievous and playful Vulpix. You lament the absence of MImikyu, you hope he gets better soon.

Vulpix really enjoys the attention she’s being given. The judges seem to have taken a liking to her haughty personality and her little wizard outfit. Also, it doesn’t hurt that by regular people standards she’s a cutie. As a dedicated Pokémaniac you are bit appalled by the fact that most people can appreciate the natural charm of
>Vulpix is a hit with the judges.

[Judge #1]: I like his team, but I’m still not 100% sure about their trainer. I think this kid is worth a shot.

[Judge #2]: He needs some work, but he could be marketable. Maybe a sob story could help.

[Judge #3]: Are you being bullied at school? Do you have divorced parents? Any disabilities? Recently deceased relatives? A combination of the aforementioned?

[Percy]: Not really?

[Judge #1]: Doesn’t matter, just let him challenge the Gym. Then we’ll see if he has any potential.

The judges give you a brief rundown of some of the things that may add or subtract from your final score. They will be overviewing all of your battles inside the Gym.

Inside the aquarium, you’ll find your opponents. There will be 3 battles, 1 vs 1.

You’ve got 60 starting points thanks to your mons being well behaved and their general good condition. This score can change according to your performance during battle.

You need to score at least 85 points to appear on TV, get your name out there and maybe get some minor sponsorship.

And 95 points to get the attention of the Gym Leader, giving you the chance to boost your popularity and presence as a Trainer and improve the chances to get some real good sponsorships, make connections and improve your chances to get invited to the league.

Even if you fail to reach those scores, you can challenge the Gym Leader for the Badge as long as you beat the Gym Trainers, you’ll just won’t get any extra attention to yourself.

One of the employees leads you to the Aquarium, a beautiful maze-like room where the walls are made of thick glass and are used as a massive fish tank where Water Pokémon swim freely. At first, you are mesmerized by the view but Houndour barks to get you focused on the task at hand.

As you traverse the hallways looking for the way out you find a strange platform in what appears to be a dead end. The moment you press it you hear the sound of something moving, across the hallway you notice that a path has opened underneath one of the massive wall glasses, it seems to lead to an arena where you are going to face your first opponent. The only problem is, that the pathway only stays open if something is standing on the platform. Someone must stay behind.

You decide to leave Houndour behind, not only is he at a type disadvantage but he’s one of the most responsible and level-headed mon in your group. You trust him to not abandon his position while the other partake in battle.

After all, Prince needs the experience, Vulpix has a chance to run off if she gets bored and Loudred has been itching for a good battle.


[Houndour]: Understood partner. I’ll be waiting.

As you part ways with Houndour, the fire mon gives some barks of encouragement to his pupil.

[Houndour]: Hey Prince. Show them what you are made of.

Prince responds with a little thumbs up and a confused smile.

You go through the passage and Into the battlefield, the arena is the standard one used in professional regulated matches, the walls in the room are also thick crystal walls filled with water and swimming mons, it gives off the feeling of being submerged underwater.

From an intercom, you hear the voices of the judges announcing that everything is ready for the first battle and urge you to get yourself and your mon into position. In the side of the battlefield opposite of you, a young hotel worker is patiently awaiting with a Pokéball in hand ready to go.

Before starting you notice the multiple cameras surrounding you, the thought of being observed and critiqued makes you just a bit uneasy.

You take a deep breath and prepare for battle.

As the other trainer gets ready to send out his mon you send out:

Loudred steps forward onto the battlefield, she does some light stretching and cracks her knuckles getting ready for some action.

You opponent sends out a flabby Wailmer, it's quite big for its species.
The blubber that composes his body seems thick enough to be a problem, making him able to take quite a beating.

Also, but the Wailmer seems strangely anxious, bouncing in place as if it was building momentum. You notice that there are droplets of water dripping from his mouth, he must be filled to the brim with saltwater.

The opposing trainer prepares to command his mon and so should you.

>BATTLE START.
>LOUDRED VS. WAILMER
>Loudred *Silk Scarf* strengthens her *NORMAL* type moves.

Give a command!

>ATTACK! Focus on causing damage. Increases accuracy.
>DEFEND! Whether the hit and wait for the precise moment to counterattack
>EVADE! Get out of harm's way and strike back.

Select a move:
>Ice Beam: Takes a bit of time to charge and aim, but it's a powerful and reliable tool. Might *FREEZE* your opponent.
>Stomp: A strong attack, boosted by your silk scarf, but it isn't too easy to use with shoulders short legs.
>Echoed Voice: Loudred's natural defense mechanism. Remember to cover your ears.
>Supersonic: Try to *confuse* your opponent, make his movements sloppy and get the upper hand in this battle.
>Pound: A no brainer. Easy to use but isn't particularly devastating.
>Hammer Arm: Strike with some devastating strength at the cost of your speed.
>Other/Write-in.
OOC: I decided to get rid of approaches since they seemed trivial in practice and I felt that it made players rely solely on one tactic during battles. I plan to rework them into ways to train our mons so they can focus on improving specific things.

Wailmer prepares to use *Water Spout*, spurts of water start to come out of his blowhole as he takes aim towards Loudred. Despite its size and weight, the mon proves to be quite fast or at least faster than your purplish friend.

You command Loudred to use *Echoed Voice* and nothing else, hoping that the STAB and *Silk scarf* will boost your mon’s power to gain the upper hand during this scuffle. While you cover your ears, Loudred gets ready to let out a deafening scream.

[2nd Turn.]
With its health intact the Wailmer can shoot his *Water Spout* at full power. Such a powerful attack is no laughing matter.

The pressurized water stream coming from Wailmer’s blowhole hits hard and fast. It’s strong enough to send Loudred’s heavy body tumbling down onto the ground and rolling backward. The water repeatedly pummels her until the blast dies down.

>Loudred is down to half her health.


Muttering pained grunts, your friend manages to quickly get back onto her feet before the Wailmer gets another chance to attack. Standing up, covered in light bruises, Loudred hurries to use *Echoed Voice*.

The soundwaves coming from your mon shake up the room. The Wailmer seems to tremble, the water inside his body reverberating so hard seems to perturb him. The Water-type lets out an anguished cry until his trainer tells him to snap out of it.
>Wailmer is down to one-third of his health.

The Gym trainer instructs his mon to use *Bounce*, the round Water-type starts to jump in its place, quickly gaining more and more momentum, before you have a chance to act the Wailmer reaches the ceiling and comes down with enough force to send him ricocheting throughout the room.

In an open field, this Wailmer could have easily reached enough height to come down until the next turn.
The mass of blubber quickly bounces from wall to wall becoming a living projectile with Loudred as its target.

Loudred prepares for the impact, Wailmer keeps bouncing rapidly from wall to wall, he could strike from anywhere in the room. You follow the bouncing attacker with your eyes waiting for the moment he decides to strike.

[Percy]: TO YOUR LEFT!

Loudred acts almost automatically, following your commands without any hint of hesitation. She catches the Wailmer with her arms, as if she were a goalie, despite Loudred's massive strength she is pushed back by the sheer strength of the impact. She redirects Wailmer attack by throwing him up into the air. The Water-type can only flail helplessly as he is suspended in the air. Loudred jumps to the Wailmer’s height and smacks him downwards with a painful *Hammer Arm* as if he were a Volleyball. As Loudred’s fist connects with the Wailmer’s head hi starts to spew out a good deal of saltwater out of pure shock.

>Loudred mitigated the attack! She’s at 40% of her health.
>Loudred’s speed fell. EVADING is harder.


The Wailmer bounces against the floor and into a wall, ricocheting again throughout the room because of his rubbery nature, but this time he isn’t in control, the Wailmer can only ineffectually try to stop himself or wait for his momentum to die down. He’s gravely hurt, another attack should finish it.

She jumps at the right moment to hit the living ball, striking it hard enough to make the room reverberate by the sheer force of the impact, the Wailmer is sent flying right into one of the walls, unconscious.
>Wailmer fainted!
>Loudred and Percival win!
>Loudred gained battle experience

You start shouting “GOOOOOOAL!” To get some hype going, you start to take off your shirt in celebration before you remember your scrawny physique and the fact that this was just the first battle at the gym.

The glass wall where Wailmer crashed starts to crack, in a matter of seconds it breaks, liters of water pouring into the floor as a group of Gym workers hurry to fix the hole.

You hurriedly try to apologize for the inconvenience, but from the speakers, the judges dismissively tell you to get a move on. They don’t sound pleased.

Even if property damage isn’t uncommon during Pokémon fights, they urge you to keep it to a minimum while you are on the premises, it’s bad etiquette.

Loudred celebrates her victory quite enthusiastically until she notices that the mood in the room isn’t quite cheery. With the workers and the judges being so pissed off. She isn’t quite sure of what she did wrong, she controlled her strength to not hurt the Wailmer unnecessarily.

She can’t fully grasp the situation, but the looks people are giving her make her feel guilty. She turns to you for answers.


[Loudred]:Did, did I do something wrong?

> “Nah, ignore them Loudred. That kick was pretty awesome.”
>Reprimand her, she still needs to improve on modulating her strength and she has to take into consideration her surroundings.
>Tell her to apologize to Wailmer and her trainer, the kick was a bit overkill.
>Other/write-in.
While the hole is being fixed, the pathway to your next battle opens up. A door opens leading to the next section of the maze. You notice that the walls in the next portion seem damp, and you can overhear the faint sounds of water splashing about.

For the next battle you are choosing:
>Prince
>Vulpix
>Loudred.
