Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Fine, fine." Sub said, rolling his eyes in Trish's direction as he pointed at the gym leader, the package of gesture's summing up to say 'get a load of this'. With a flick of his wrist he tossed out a Dusk Ball and unleashed his first Pokemon.

"Dile!" Roared Auguste the Krookodile as he appeared from his ball. If Whitney wanted to start out with muscle then so would he. The beast would continue to bellow out its roar as it stared down the Ursaring, attempting to Intimidate it the best it could. "Enough of the foreplay, Auguste, Swagger. Oh, wait...I guess that's more foreplay." Sub said with a wink.

Auguste would quickly change his demeanor with the command, going from big scary monster to cocky punk as he turned his back to the Ursaring, only glancing back at him over his shoulder long enough to scoff in his direction.

Sub watched as the big bad bear hit its self in its confused state, a smile quickly growing on the man's face as he watched the events unfold. "Perfect! Now Auguste, use Brick Break!" He commanded.

With a roar the crocodile Pokemon would charge Ursaring and use its momentum to perform a front flip in front of it, bringing its Fighting chi infused tail down on the bear from above.

Auguste didn't have a chance on avoiding nor surviving the Swagger powered Fighting type move, the pair of deadly arms slapping across the crocodile's chest, leaving a short lived imprint of Fighting chi as the Krookodile was sent flying. "Dile..." Moaned Auguste as he hit the ground, knocked out cold. It was a OHKO.

"Well this battle isn't moving quickly, huh?" Sub mused with a chuckle as he recalled his Pokemon, pocketing one Dusk Ball for another. "Let's see if we can keep this speed up and wrap this up quickly." He said, tossing out his second ball and Pokemon onto the field.

"Hehe! Time to shine!" Poe proclaimed as he appeared from the swirling vortex of darkness created by the Dusk Ball. "Get a load of this doll! Hehe!" He said, almost drooling over Whitney.

"That's the gym leader, save it for another time." Sub scolded the Pokemon. "See that bear? It wants to kill you, make sure that doesn't happen. Use Foul Play." The Dark One said with a devious grin, he had set them up.

Poe was more than happy to obliged as his chest gem and eyes began to give off a sinister glow. The Ursarings own shadow would then rise up off the ground with an eerie cry and attempt to slash the bear down from behind, turning its own immense strength against it.

"Not so fast, ha, you pink menace!" Sub shouted with a smirk, Poe mirroring him as if already knowing what the man was thinking. "Metal Burst!" Sub cried out.

Poe gave a devious laugh as he went right along with the command, eyes glowing silver, throwing his hands up to meet the rolling mass of pink. Upon contact Poe would begin to skid back and grunt in pain as he attempted to hold back the Gyro Ball in vain. However, the ghost was not trying to stop it, oh no, he was just preparing himself for what comes next.

In a brilliant flash of silvery light Poe unleashed a wave of energy against the Wigglytuff, taking the strength of its own attack, doubling it, and sending it right back. Of course such a feat didn't spare Poe the pain but at least he was able to share it and some.

"Crap." Sub mumbled as he quickly put his hands over his ears so he didn't fall asleep either, unfortunately for Poe he could not react quick enough to do the same and immediately passed out. "Dang it Poe! Why must you always pass out so easily! Wake up!" Sub shouted.

Poe wouldn't see the attack coming, obviously, but Sub certainly did and it made him winch, he knew that wasn't going to feel good.

As the Sableye was dispatched from the 'dust cloud' Sub hoped that he would wake up after that punishment, only one way to find out. "Poe! Wake up and get some payback! Power Gem!" The man shouted. Please wake up Poe.

(1, he wakes up and, 2 he stays asleep.)

As the brightly glowing pink ball slammed into Poe the Sableye was finally awaken but not in time to be of use in the battle any longer as the imp was knocked out cold. Sub just let out a sigh of annoyance as he returned the Pokemon.

"I knew there was a reason why I avoided coming to this gym for so long..." He mumbled, also saying something about all this pink is getting to him.

Without another another word he took out his third Dusk Ball and bounced it onto the field, the device popping open to reveal Allan the Bisharp, the Pokemon standing tall and at attention as soon as he appeared.

"Strike it down quick and fierce, Metal Claw." Sub commanded, tired of this Wigglytuff already.

Allan was quick to obey as always, kicking off the ground and lunging at the rabbit fairy with one of its forearm blades, prepared to slash away at it.
