Scum Trainer

Richard sighed as he unhooked a Pokeball from his waist, narrowing his eyes at Red and letting the edge of his lips curl.

"You have great strong and powerful Pokemon," Richard said and tapped the center of his Pokeball, throwing it up, "But the dominance of this battle will shift in my side soon enough,"

A blinding light revealed a Pokemon onto the field... An Onix, It's appearance kicking dust across the entire field as Richard's lips curled into a smile.

"Rock Tomb!" Richard ordered, capitalizing on the dust in the battlefield.

Onix let out a fierce roar, huge rocks started falling from the sky... all aimed at Riolu who weaved through the onslaught of rocks with nimble movements.

Riolu let out a battle cry as she shot into the air, heading to Onix's head with her fists exhibiting a bright crimson aura, resonating with Red's crimson eyes as he pushed his fist into the air.

"Vacuum Wave!" Red called out, his voice rising higher than the trembling of the battlefield.

Riolu joined her palms and a wave of wind and aura shot toward Onix's face at piercing speed, the force behind the attack a trembling testament to the force of Riolu and Red's combined aura.

Richard didn't falter.

"Onix, Iron Tail to knock It down!" Richard ordered.

Onix's tail glowed in a metallic light as it instantly rose into the air, crashing against the Vacuum wave sending shockwaves through the entire field but Onix had somehow managed it... It deflected Riolu's Vacuum wave right into the air.

Red raised his Pokedex and smirked.

'LV. 18, huh? And such a bulky frame... This battle is ours,' Red thought.

Riolu landed on the ground and Red pulled his arm back.

"Riolu, Quick Attack!" Red ordered.

Riolu glowed and shot forward, engulfed in a powerful white aura closing the distance between herself and Onix in seconds.

"Force Palm!" Red gave the order and Riolu executed.

She landed a Force Palm on Onix's center, sending a wave of bustling blue aura shooting out the back of the Pokemon in the process. Onix doubled up in pain but nevertheless it was prepared to attack.

But Riolu shot past her limits, her other palm laced in a crimson aura that exhibited a more devilish glow than her eyes as she struck with another force palm... this time sending a red wave of aura out of Onix.

Onix's eyes rolled and determination poured in, a powerful Flamethrower erupting from it's mouth straight for Riolu much to Red's surprise.

The Flamethrower covered Riolu, sending the Pokemon flying and crashing against the ground yet the intensity of the attack didn't stop, No in fact it increased and Red narrowed his eyes at Richard... a seething rage emanating from them.

The flamethrower stopped, smoke taking it's place and leaking out of Onix's mouth. Smoke and dust rolled over the arena as everyone waited, the tension palpable but then a pair of crimson eyes shone through the smoke, the glow intensifying as it burst forward...

Riolu shot to Onix's head, it's figure escaping the smoke and revealing burn marks all over it's body, smoke still there... it's original blue fur turned black but determination far surpassing any one of Richard's Pokemon leaked out of it's eyes, bright orbs flashed before her eyes and her energy condensed.

She pushed past her limts once again, condensing her aura into an orb albeit small but powerful, glowing with aura as it smashed into Onix's head, sending shockwaves across the entire battlefield as more dust was kicked up upon the crash of Onix on the ground.

The dust cleared and revealed Onix on the ground alongside Riolu, her eyes losing their color as she fainted.

"The fifth round is a draw!" The trainer announced and Richard returned Onix, letting the nurses have it's Pokeball and Riolu was rushed in.

Red gritted his teeth as he looked at Richard hatefully.

"That attack could have killed Riolu," Red barely managed to say as his teeth trembled.

"And so what? They're just tools," Richard said while putting his hands in his pockets, "They're gonna die eventually so why not now,"

"Let the final round begin!"

Both trainers threw their final Pokeballs into the air, lighting the air up with a blue hue as both Pokemon emerged from their balls and crashed upon the destroyed battlefield ready to battle.

On Red's side stood a powerful Charmeleon, roaring out in fury and on Richard's side... was a Dratini, it's eyes looking at Red hatefully.

"Now Dratini, Strike with Thunder wave!" Richard ordered, his intentions were clear.

Dratini glowed in a light golden aura as sparks of golden lightning shot out of it heading to Charmeleon but the Dinosaur Pokemon was faster... moving out of the way with amazing speed and firing off a powerful ball of encircling flames.

The ball of fire crashed upon Dratini and generated a small explosion as the small snake Pokemon was sent flying upon impact... It had fainted.

Richard's face was expressionless, He walked to Dratini and then... it distorted, his expression changed as he stomped on the motionless Pokemon out of raw spite.

"LV. 16 and you're still useless!"

"I've fed you a couple of TMs ever since I saw you in the wild!"

"But you... You haven't grown stronger,"

"I put you alongside my other Pokemon to train... But you still don't grow stronger!"

"One Hit and you're down!"

Before the Nurses could intervene, Richard was sent careening backward by a punch to the face sending him crashing into the ground with his butt.

"Pathetic Scum," Red let out as he carried Dratini and looked at the Pokeball in his hand, The one that belonged to Dratini.

Richard looked at his hand and saw Dratini's Pokeball was no longer there, He was astounded by the speed Red had just shown.

"If I was this Dratini, I would have long since left you because of your stupidity," Red said, spitefully and crumbled the Pokeball right before Richard's very eyes...
