Aaron's smile was beaming ear to ear as he stepped into the trainer box at the far end of the battle field. His new acquaintance Zack was stationed at the other side of the white-painted box, a dry and dirty field spread between them. The oddly-clad old man Angus took the position of referee on the side of the field. "This guy is just full of surprises" Aaron slyly thought to himself. He still could not wrap his head around how a seemingly ancient old guy was expecting to start being a pokemon trainer now. A short young girl had even tried to pester Angus about the rarity of his flying Pikachu, a question Angus had answered in depth. Something about a gift from his grandson, hatched from an egg, yadda yadda yadda. You know, a real sap story.

Aaron didn't really want to hear any of that. Any person who needs to wait until their hair is balding to become a pokemon trainer probably means they really weren't cut out for the profession in the first place. Aaron didn't think this to be an elitist or anything, it was just the truth. Aaron had spent enough time training with old, conservative adults at the Violet City Gym to know that training pokemon was an activity for young people, not old farts. They just could never keep up--it was that simple.

Angus waved his hands so as to herald in the official beginning of this oh-so unofficial match.

"Go Loki!" Aaron called as he threw his first pokeball onto the field, making contact with the ground in a bright flash of white light. Onlookers heard the pokemon before they saw it, a low buzzing hum emanating from its relentlessly flapping translucent wings. It was a moderately large orange and green bug with two black, beady eyes. Every few seconds it shifted its position very quickly, never able to seemingly stay focused or in place for more than a few moments at a time. Loki had a lot of energy--he had been cooped up in his pokeball for far too long. It was clear to Loki that Grayson was Aaron's favorite--they had been through to much together after all--but Loki was hoping that this battle would change things and Aaron would start to use him more frequently.

As Zach summoned his pokemon to the field in a similar fashion, a small brown and blue pokemon appeared. Although Aaron's knowledge of flying pokemon was quite extensive, his expertise on basically everything else was sort of shoddy. As soon as he deemed his pokemon ready, Aaron pointed his index finger straight at Zach's pokemon.

"Alright Loki, let's get this started shall we. Start with Quick Attack!" Aaron commanded. Loki, after flitting around back and forth rather impatiently, jumped at the bit to finally get started. He took off as fast as he could muster, leaving a white trail of energy with silver streaks behind him as he flew straight towards the Drilbur.

It was an unlucky venture for the fiery haired young adult as he had kept a keen eye out whilst investigating Peropolis' caves for a duo of items that would be able to be used in the future to evolve his newly acquired Magby and Elekid to there final form. Anyone who was to look at Sebastian's face would notice his expression was angry looking, the vast amount of time that had been spent on searching for a Magmarizer and Electirizer could have been spent on training his team up to make them even stronger. After exiting Petropolis' caves Sebastian contemplated where he would take his journey next as it was getting late in the day and he was exhausted from the vigorous amount of activity he had done in the day, in his mind he deserved a rest, and that would allow him to decide where to go next on his journey. Despite the fiery haired young adult already having built a good base of pokemon for his team, their strength he felt was not up to standard and would most likely be unable to handle the strength of a Furoh Gym Leader just yet, it would take some more training and instillation of mental toughness into his pokemon to have them ready for what would possibly be the biggest and most important battle of their young journey together as a team.
