Ando
"little girl, do you realize that I can report you to the authorities for this?" The young girl in front of Yuga looked to be about a year or two younger than him, with neat short hair, and she appeared rather cute. However, her arrogance reduced her cuteness from seven or eight points to just three or four.
"little girl? You're calling me 'little girl' when we're practically the same age!" The girl was quite displeased with Yuga for addressing her that way.
"But my mental age is much older than yours! You're just a little girl," Yuga thought to himself.
"Names and titles don't matter; I'll be on my way," Yuga said impatiently, wanting to leave as there were many tourists around, and he didn't want to cause a scene.
"Stop!" The girl shouted loudly as Yuga attempted to leave. She then released a formidable Aggron, blocking Yuga's path.
The spectators who had been watching the drama suddenly scattered upon seeing Aggron; they didn't want to get caught in a battle.
"Today, if you don't leave Gardevoir behind, none of you will be allowed to leave!" Aggron roared, and its thick tail heavily pounded the sand, looking very intimidating.
...
<<Aggron >>
Type: Steel/Rock
Ability: Rock Head
Gender: Male
Potential: Green
Level: 55
Moves: Impact, Iron Defense, Metal Claw, Rock Tomb, Iron Head, Rock Slide, Metal Sound, Iron Tail, Double-Edge, Water Pulse, Uproar.
...
Glancing at the powerful Aggron, Yuga asked, "Is this your trump card?"
The girl sneered, "More than enough to deal with someone like you."
Before Yuga could respond, Gardevoir couldn't hold back its anger and was about to attack Aggron. However, Yuga stopped it.
Using Gardevoir's power to confront a Aggron was a significant waste.
Yuga summoned his Absol, a tall and imposing Pokémon that completely overshadowed Aggron in terms of presence.
Absol looked at Aggron with disdain, not taking it seriously at all.
Enraged by Absol's dismissive attitude, Aggron roared and swung its large, heavy tail at Absol.
Absol, however, didn't dodge or evade. Instead, it raised its right front paw and effortlessly intercepted the Iron Tail move using Shadow Claw. Then, with a countermove, it performed a Throat Chop, knocking Aggron to the ground.
Although Aggron was known for its strength, Yuga's Absol was more than a match for it in this regard.
Strength, it's also our strong suit!
When Yugha summoned Absol, the guide standing behind the girl began sweating profusely.
It's trouble, it's big trouble!
Just by looking at the appearance, it was evident that this Absol was no ordinary Pokémon, not to mention its owner.
What kind of karma did I bring upon myself, getting involved with such a little ancentor!
"You... you really brave!"
Seeing her Aggron defeated so swiftly, the girl pointed at Yuga, trembling with anger.
"I have even more courage sometimes. Want to test it?" Yuga retorted.
The girl had the nerve to talk about courage when she dared to pick a fight with anyone she pleased. If she continued to provoke him, he wouldn't hesitate to defeat not only her Aggron but also her.
Leaving aside Yuga's status in the League, just his identity as an Elite level Trainer alone would command respect from most people.
This is the confidence that strength brings; if you don't have the strength, there's no need to boast.
Yuga used to keep a low profile when he didn't have much strength himself. Even his teacher, who was a Master level Trainer, never acted arrogantly. Modesty in developing abilities was the way to go.
The girl in front of him seemed like a spoiled rich kid, pampered by her family, as evident from her Aggron.
If it were Steven's Aggron, Yuga might have given it some thought, but the current situation didn't merit that.
"Aggron, get up and teach him a lesson!"
The girl completely disregarded her image, and she was so angry at Yuga..
However, before Aggron had time to get up, Yuga's Absol stepped forward and slapped it on the head with Throat Chop again. This time, it really fainted.
"Ando, what are you waiting for? Can't you see your lady is being bullied? Are you a coward?"
The girl yelled at Ando, her guide and protector, she roared in anger..
The girl's attitude toward others made Yuga frown.
"Alright, alright, Miss, I'm coming," Ando said apologetically to Yuga.
Although the girl was infuriating, Ando knew he had a job to do, and he was stuck with her.
In fact, her previous bodyguards were just for show. Ando was the real protector.
Yuga initially had a good impression of the polite guide, but unexpectedly he turned out to be an accomplice.
"Don't waste your breath on nonsense; if you're going to fight, do it already," Yuga said coldly.
Ando sighed and released his Pokémon.
...
<<Umbreon >>
Type: Dark
Ability: Synchronize
Gender: Female
Potential: Green
Level: 64
Moves: Pursuit, Helping Hand, Tackle, Quick Attack, Feint Attack, Fling, Mean Look, Toxic, Shadow Ball, Rest, Moonlight, Dream Eater, Dark Pulse, Iron Tail, Heal Bell.
...
Yuga glanced at Umbreon and then at Ando.
Unexpectedly, Ando was a pseudo-Elite level Trainer. No wonder the girl dared to be so arrogant; she had the money to hire someone of his caliber.
Moreover, this pseudo-Elite level Trainer was following her orders like a lapdog.
"Absol, X-Scissor!" Yuga wasted no time and attacked first. After all, Umbreon was at a higher level, and Yuga didn't want to risk losing.
"Umbreon, Iron Tail!" Ando reacted quickly and commanded Umbreon to counter.
Absol's claw and Umbreon's tail clashed, but the higher level Umbreon was sent flying backward.
Umbreon excelled at defense but was not known for its offense. Additionally, the situation favored Absol, which was why Umbreon was losing.
However, this outcome seemed strange to Ando.
Even though Umbreon wasn't skilled in offense, it was genuinely an pseudo-Elite level Pokémon. Losing like this didn't make sense to Ando.
As he thought about it, Ando realized he was stuck in a difficult situation.
He lamented his bad luck; why did he have to deal with such a troublesome little girl? What he wouldn't give for her to cause a little less trouble and save a couple of years of his life.
Unfortunately, he could only keep these thoughts to himself and not dare to voice them out loud.
