Kasiya looked around at the multitude of Pokemon before her as she took a long drink of her orange juice, a satisfied sigh escaping her as she set the empty glass down. "Yep, an Absol," she repeated, grinning broadly at Dante. "I saw one recently in a battle," she said, purposely omitting where she'd seen it, "and it's sheer power impressed me. I can't wait to find one." She could feel the excitement welling up in her as she thought about the powerful Aerial Aces she'd soon be commanding, although realized she'd need to find the TM first. "Hey, do you guys know where I can get an Aerial Ace TM?" she asked, glancing down at her cereal and starting to devour it. She was practically ravenous, and despite the quality of Pokemon Center meals, it tasted pretty darn good to her.
Shocker was happy to converse with Kenny, as she was quite fond of the little ghost. Ariel was also happy to speak with a fellow water Pokemon, occaisionally walking over and getting Allegra unstuck from something or other.

"B-boring?" Beacon's eyes teared up at the insult, the Pokemon crying right in the middle of the fight. "MEANY!" Without instruction, Beacon lunged forward, leaping into the air and grappling onto the Togetic. Their fur rubbing together, the Ampharos let loose a point blank Thunderbolt with a despaired cry, before letting go and plummeting to the ground, fast asleep.
Mike blinked, surprised to say the least. "It's odd, every once and a while he pulls this sweet move, then just reverts back to normal." He shrugged.
The Crawduant's eyes flashed at the Confuse Ray, its bright light enveloping him. Xanthos wobbled back and forth, smacking himself in the head a few times, the disorientation getting the best of him.

"Go Mightyena!" Jaeshan called, poinging at Ursaring. "Sand-Attack!" Mightyena darted forward, pivoting on his two forelegs and kicking up a cloud of sand into the bear's eyes. It roard and rubbed them vigorously, its accuracy down. Now that Bagon was wide open, the Jigglypuff chose to move in and attack with a Doubleslap, striking the small dragon three times across the face. Bagon growled, and struck back with a swipe of her own - a sharp Cut attack that left a deep gouge in the Jigglypuff's right side, her Dragon Dance having upped both her reaction time and her attack power. Mightyena was having an easy time dodging the Ursaring's attempts at Fury Swipes, although the razor-like claws only missing by an inch or so.

"It's tough being so amazingly talented and beautiful sometimes." Winona said as he carried her three Pokeballs on the way to the Center. "That trainer wasn't too bad, I just sometimes wish I could use my own Pokemon, that Dante twerp wouldn't have beaten me then." She stopped, looking at the sky. "Yeah, not even Mike could have beaten me then." She thrust her hands upon her hips, letting out a slightly maniacal cackle.
"Like I said, it's tough being so good." She said as the sliding doors of the Pokemon Center opened before her.

"G...get off!" Mihoshi cried, almost desperately. Her attempt at getting the much larger Pokemon failed, however, and a few moments later she was struck with a Thunderbolt that had enough power in it to cause her to become knocked out.
"Mihoshi!" Nina cried out, immediately recalling her Pokemon. Quickly reaching for another Pokeball, she loosed another Pokemon.
"It's about time that I got a turn!" Sakura said, getting pumped. Looking up to the sky, she grinned. Looking to Xanthos, she saw a chance to attack it, and took that opportunity. She rushed the larger Pokemon and jumped onto its back, unleashing a Giga Drain.
Aphrodite looked over to the sleeping Beacon. "This is almost cruel," she said, but then shook off her thought. She opened her mouth and loosed another Ice Beam attack at the Pokemon.

Mightyena jumped forward, ramming his head into the Ursaring's gut, and causing it to stumble in an imitation Headbutt. The great bear roared, and struck out with a Slash, catching Mightyena across the chest and sending him flying back with a sharp yelp. Bagon powered up with a second Dragon Dance, her speed now greater than the Jigglypuff's. Jaeshan sensed the balloon Pokemon and his young Bagon were around the same level, otherwise Jigglypuff probably would have the upper hand quite easily. The Jigglypuff decided to put an end to Bagon's Dragon Dancing by emitting a strange sound, which temporarily stopped the dragon from being able to use the move.

Kasiya looked up as the doors slid open, and a haughty-looking trainer walked in, hands upon her hips. Kasiya wasn't sure, but the air seemed to turn slightly cold as the girl strolled in, almost as if she owned the place. Allegra gave a terrified shiek and dashed under the table, cowering behind Kasiya's legs fearfully. The other Pokemon just watched, their eyes all moving in unison. Even Fang, who on a usual day would probably have flapped over and tried to hug her face with his four wings stayed in place. "Who is that?" Kasiya whispered to Flannery, and continued to eat her cereal.
"That's Winona," Flannery responded, her voice just as low. "She can be a bit stuck up, but she's nice if you can get past that tough exterior. She's also the gym leader of Fortree City."
"A gym leader?" Kasiya asked again, looking back up at her. "She carries herself with such confidence," she noted, silently wishing that she were as confident. I wonder how tough she is, the girl thought, nibbling on a slice of melon.

"It's time to cut my losses." Mike said, recalling the confused Crawduant. With Encore, Confusion and now a Giga Drain, he was in less of a fighting state than Beacon, and he was asleep. "Your turn Felsic, Flamethrower that Bellossom!" Mike's beloved Quilava was released, it wasting not time to attack. Felsic stood up on its hind legs and let roaring a powerful jet stream of fire towards the mini grass Pokemon.
Beacon still slept, his rest undisturbed by the close range Ice Beam.

"Good morning Joy, I'd like to have Gligar, Aerodactyl and Fearow healed." She flicked a stray hair from her face, it returning to the usual spot.
"Yes Winona, I'll be on it right away." The usually calm Nurse was a little flustered, a Gym Leader demanded so much respect in the small town, Winona having no problems basking in the spotlight.
Winona let out a sigh, turning to meet a rather large Arcanine's rear end in her face. "Agh!" She took a step back, examining it. "That looks like a fire type. Maybe Mike's here!" The girl peered around the corner, her hopes dashed upon seeing Dante, some blond girl and an all too familiar hairstyle.
"No way, Flannery?" Winona's tone brightened up, dashing over to her fellow Gym Leader.

Sakura's eyes grew giant and she braced herself as the fire attack was loosed at her. She was barely able to survive the attack, partly due to the fact that she was slightly stronger than Felsic, and also due to luck. "That... really, really hurt!" she yelled, before looking over to the sleeping Beacon. She grinned, and rushed over to the Pokemon, using another Giga Drain, to help restore her health.
Aphrodite glared at the much smaller Felsic. "That was just... uncalled for," she said. Concentrating, the Lapras was able to summon a large wave of water, headed for both Felsic and Beacon.

"Hey there, Winona," Flannery said casually, finishing her own orange juice in a gulp. "How's it going?" she grinned, feeling something brushing up against her pantleg. She peered down, and noticed the little Skitty still trying to hide. "She won't bite," the fiery gym leader said reassuringly, scooting the kitten out with her foot. Allegra just cried out again, becoming a tiny pink blur as she hid behind the Vaporeon.
"Allie..." Kasiya sighed, and shook her head. "Poor thing," she added, unable to help but feeling sorry for the kitten. You'll have your confidence back soon, Kasiya thought, another determined grin flashing across her face. Winona's arrive at the Pokemon Center had caused everyone to forget about her previous question, and she glanced up at Winona. "I like your helmet," she said brightly. "Say would you know where I can find an Aerial Ace TM?" she asked, getting her dirty dishes together in preparation to return them to the counter.

Beacon's sudden lack of health jolted him awake. "Sleep time is over!" He quickly got to his feet, the wave crashing him back down. "Today, my day is not." Whipping around, he shot a mean look at the Lapras; he was very tired of her sass. He managed to sum up one last Thunderbolt, it striking the ground and tearing at the large plesiosaur Pokemon, rocks and gravel being ripped up from the powerful attack. After letting the attack go, the Pokemon collapsed, ready for some real rest.
Mike and Felsic smirked at the oncoming wave. "Alright Felsic, let's try that technique we practiced earlier!" The Quilava turned tail and ran, the wave gaining on him. Jumping into the air, he fired a Flamethrower at the ground, it rocketing him up into the air. He whirled around, firing another Flamethrower at Sakura. The midair attack sent him crashing back down on the now muddy dirt and ash. "Agh! I just got clean too!"

Dante just listened to the conversation going on around him as he ate his pop-tart. He looked over however when he heard Winona's voice and seeing her come in he gave her a triumphant smirk. "She can give you an Aerial Ace TM, after all she gave me one around 30 minutes ago." He said befor returning to his poptart smugly. Ok so maybe winning things did have some affect on his ego. Not that he really had one befor, maybe winning gym battles gave him one? He thought about that for a moment befor looking down at the egg in his lap and running a hand on its cool outter shell.

Sakura had literally no time whatsoever to react to what was going on. She got struck by the Flamethrower and was knocked out-- a moment later, she was recalled into her Pokeball.
"Crap!" Nina yelled. "Aphrodite, I'm going to send someone else out to--"
"No!" Aphrodite yelled back to her trainer, as she was struck by the Thunderbolt attack. "Let... let me do this!" Not looking back to Nina, but rather forward to Felsic, she glared at him again. "You little whelp!" Visibly annoyed, she loosed a Confuse Ray at the smaller Pokemon. This one travelled at a faster pace than the one that hit Xanthos had.

Winona's eye twitched, the memory of Dante's insult still fresh in her mind. "I'm sure you do." She turned back to Flannery, about to say something when the TM was mentioned. "Why yes, you just so happen to be looking at the inventor of that fine move." She wore her usual smug expression, wagging her finger at the younger girl. "The only way you'll get that is by besting me in an official battle unfortunately, and most of my Pokemon are in the Center now." She cocked her head to the side, a smirk appearing across her face.
"Unless, you want to do a quick one on one unsanctioned battle just between trainers? I'll use my own Pokemon." Her calm expression hid the churning excitement building inside her, her hand reaching inside her pocket.
