Under the lights at the Pokemon Stadium, duking it out with someone whose name everyone knows, you, a virtual unknown. A battle of behemoths, Pokemon at the height of their power, throwing themselves at each other with no regard for their own wellbeing, all that matters is that you hurt the other guy more, all that matters is that you win and you'll do anything to make sure it happens.

Hardly.

He had three Pokemon at his side, and they were barely more than babies. A minuscule Magnemite, bobbing absentmindedly in the air, serious combat the furthest thing from his mind. Misdreavus, nearly transparent, and loathing the bright floodlights. Then there was Slowpoke, too stupid to realize that he hated this man and that it hurt his eyes to look at the big white things in the sky. Not the well-rounded, fiercely-trained team that should be battling here. And, they were late.

But here they were.

Dozens of battles were already underway, crammed into the cavernous stadium. He spotted an open section off to the side and slipped quietly into it. Somewhere, he assumed, there was a professional trainer that had expected to get off easy. Collect a little appearance fee and grab a bite at the concession stand. He felt a little satisfaction knowing that he had ruined someone's day with the smallest of actions, like showing up.

The sight of Aris in the arena, better late than never, seemed to wake up the crowd, and there was a relative silence from the speakers as the announcer presumably scrambled to get his notes together.

"Ladies and Gentlemen!" boomed a slightly less controlled voice than usual, "Our next challenger needs no introduction. The Pros now face Aris Roscher!"

There was a moderate amount of applauding, but a lot of whispering amongst the crowd. It seemed his reputation preceeded him. They quickly began cheering, however, when the next words rang out.

"And now, allow me to introduce his opponent. The woman who is tearing up the ranks, who snatched a victory in the Tromante Round Robin in a tiebreaker match that went right down to the wire, Radloff's wonder girl, Aris goes head to head with Karen Brown!"

The simple name was followed by wild screams from the crowd as a woman in her late twenties made her way to the trainer's box. She was clothed in a white cowgirl outfit, and she tipped her hat respectfully toward Aris. "'Bout time you got here, sweets," she commented with a good natured smile, "I was afraid I wasn't going to get to fight today." Seems like he'd saved her day rather than ruined it. Too late to leave now, though.

Karen grabbed two pokeballs, one in each hand, and hurled them into the arena. "Yin and Yang, say hi to the crowd!"

A ralts and mankey appeared on the field. The psychic shrank back, putting her hands to her face and seeming to blush, much to the adoration of the crowd. The fighting type held up his fists and hopped from foot to foot, tail lashing in expectation of a fight. Karen grinned at them, then Aris.

"The challenger may now choose his pokemon for the match," the announcer boomed, "And also may call the first commands."

"You've got to be joking..." he mumbled, taking in the cowgirl dress and overwhelming Radloff accent. She was a professional trainer, she traveled the world. It was so terribly forced, same with her Pokemon, playing to the crowd and yucking it up. It was so fake and constructed, and worst of all, he was sure it worked. But this was likely to be his only battle, and he intended to win.

"Alright... Misdreavus, Magnemite, come on out." He tossed out two Pokeballs, and out popped his two combatants. The best strategy, he figured, was to single out one opponent and eliminate it as quickly as possible. Twice over, then it's a cake walk. It hinged on being executed quickly.

"Magnemite. Double Shock Wave, we're taking the Mankey first. Misdreavus, Nasty Plot, then Aerial Ace."

I think I'm going to drop out of this Cup. I don't have it in me to keep posting, and mods are already stretched thin. Don't need me taking up space.
