Canalave City

Whip: A LIKELY EXCUSE!
*Whip takes out his pokeball threateningly*
Whip: COME ON THEN! BATTLE ME SO I CAN TAKE YOUR MONEY!

Mana: *sweatdrops and has a worried smile* Whip, calm down! (to the sailor) Sorry, my friend is a little-
Sailor: FINE THEN. I ACCEPT YOUR CHALLENGE! *takes out a pokeball*
Mana: -...weird.

*beat*

Mana: I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOU WERE ONLY A SAILOR!
Sailor: WHAT KIND OF SAILOR WOULD I BE IF I DIDN'T HAVE POKEMON!? GO, MAGIKARP! *sends out a magikarp onto land*
Magikarp: Magikarp... karp... karp...
Mana: ...

*Whip acts as if this is a very serious challenge*
Whip: I ACCEPT YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF MY CHALLENGE THEN! COME ON AMY! SHOW ME WHAT YOU'VE GOT!
*Whip pulls back and tosses his pokeball, releasing Amy to the battlefield*
Amy: MII-.....
*Amy notices the Magikarp flopping on the floor*
Amy:....Miiil....
Whip: AMY! TAKE THIS MATTER AS GRAVELY AS POSSIBLE!

Sailor: MAGIKARP, USE SPLASH!
Magikarp: *continues to flop around in the dirt* karp... karp karp...

Mana: ...

Whip: AMY! QUICK! DODGE IT!
*Amy stares at the Magikarp and moves her toes slightly away from it*
Whip: GOOD JOB AMY! NOW, USE YOUR TACKLE ATTACK!
*Amy enthusiastically nudges the Magikarp with her head*

Magikarp: Karp! *flies back quite a ways and into the water*
Sailor: THAT'S GOOD ENOUGH MAGIKARP! RETURN! *returns the magikarp*

Mana: Uh, Whip? *sees the sailor reaching for another pokemon* Maybe you should change your pokemon if you want.

Whip: NO WAY! ME AND MY MILTANK HAVE MADE IT THIS FAR! IT'S ABOUT HONOR THROUGHOUT THIS BATTLE! ARE YOU WITH ME AMY!?
Amy:...Mii....
*Amy rolls her eyes*

Mana: Alright then...
Sailor: I CHOOSE YOU! *sends out his pokemon and unleashes a giant gyarados* GYARADOS!
Gyarados: *lets out a loud piercing roar and glares at Amy*

*Amy's face is one of.....utter terror and fear*
Amy: M-Mii-Miiiiil!
*Amy steps back, but bumps into her trainer*
Whip:...Amy... I understand that we haven't known eachother for very long....
*Whip strikes Amy with an inspiring expression*
Whip: But! I have faith! Faith that you're powerful enough to overcome this and beat that pathetic Gyarados! Are you with me!?
*Amy stares into Whip*
Amy:..............Mi.
*Amy taps her own pokeball in Whip's hand, returning herself and forcing Eevee out*
Whip: COWARD!
Eevee: V-Vii?
*Whip glares at Eevee scarily, causing Eevee to cringe*
Whip: IT'S UP TO US THEN, EEVEE! LET US PIERCE THE HEAVENS WITH OUR STRENGTH!
*Whip picks up Eevee and tosses him into the field with Gyarados, causing Eevee to shrink with fear*

Sailor: ARE YOU READY TO BATTLE, CHALLENGER!?

Whip: OF COURSE I'M READY! EEVEE!
*Eevee flinches at a command*
Whip: USE YOUR SAND ATTACK!
*Eevee flips around and begins skittering dirt and topsoil at the Gyarados' general direction in a manner that is too similar to an escape attempt*

Gyarados: *lets out an enraged yell at the fact there's now sand in its eye*
Sailor: IT'S OKAY GYARADOS! USE THRASH!
Gyarados: *thrashes around, missing mostly but getting hitting a lot of places with its long body*
Mana: KYAAAH! *runs away from the battle field seeing how the 21' gyarados is thrashing around*

*Whip very narrowly gets hit, but doesn't even so much as flinch*
Whip: EEVEE! SHOW THIS GYARADOS WHO'S BOSS!
*Eevee runs for its life, skirting around the insane thrashing*
Whip: QUICK! ATTACK!
*Eevee, perhaps in an accident whilst trying to get away in such a rush, headbutts a part of the thrashing Gyaragos, taking a hit in the process*

Gyarados: *roars even louder as if that really hurt, but continues to thrash around*
Sailor: HANG TOUGH GYARADOS! YOU'RE DOING GREAT!

*Whip starts becoming even more riled up*
Whip: EEVEE! KEEP DODGING! ALL THIS THRASHING IS GONNA MAKE IT CONFUSED!
*Eevee stumbles in and out of the Gyarados' impact-craters, not needing Whip's advice*

Gyarados: *continues to trash aimlessly as it roars, but seems to be getting tired*
Sailor: *takes a small sidestep to avoid being crushed* DON'T GIVE UP ON ME NOW, GYARADOS! YOU CAN DO THIS!

*Eevee finds itself caught beneath a rapidly lowering tail*
Whip: EEVEE! DIG!
*Eevee, in a last-ditch attempt, burrows into the ground, avoiding the last of Gyarados' thrashing*

Gyarados: *seems to dizzy now, and roaring a bit weakly*
Sailor: IT'S OKAY GYARADOS! HANG ON!

Whip: NOW EEVEE! USE YOUR QUICK ATTACK!
*Eevee pops out of the ground, levels itself, and then rushes and tackles the confused Gyarados, hopping back a little too quickly afterwards*

Gyarados: *shockingly, it tips over backwards and makes a large thud*
Sailor: GYARADOS! HANG ON BUDDY!

Mana: ...What.

*Whip laughs maniacally, as if that had been his goal*
Whip: HAH! READY TO ADMIT DEFEAT!?
*Eevee pants and wheezes, ears hanging low*

Sailor: NO WAY! GYARADOS! HYPER BEAM!
Gyarados: *reorients itself so that it "sitting up" and a ball of energy is growing larger in its mouth*
Mana: *in a tree, hanging for dear life, when she sees the ball, causing her cat ears to pop up for a moment and flatten against her head* Oh dear goodness. ._.

*Eevee yelps in fear and turns to its master for help*
Whip:....Sand attack.
*Eevee, completely confused by Whip's request, nevertheless kicks more sand into the air, desperately trying to survive*

Gyarados: *roars again, and the shape of the hyper beam becomes haphazard*
Sailor: GYARADOS, NO!
Gyarados: *with the combination of confusion and irritation, it releases the hyper beam too soon, resulting in a large explosion and hurts itself instead*
Sailor: *covers his eyes from the wind* GYARADOS!
Mana: *clinging desperately* KYAAAAAH!

*as the dust settles, Gyarados is flat on the ground having fainted*

Gyarados: X.X
Sailor: ...Gyarados, return. *returns the pokemon to its pokeball and looks to Whip and Eevee* That was a mighty fine battle.

*Whip blinks. and blinks*
Whip: .....I.....I won?
*Eevee waltz' to Whip's side, as if he'd earned that victory*
Eevee: Vii vii~
Whip:....I.....won....I WON MY FIRST BATTLE!
*Whip jumps into a backflip, dancing in excitement. Eevee, normally one for festivities, decides to force himself back into his pokeball*
Whip: MANA! I TOTALLY JUST WON MY VERY FIRST BATTLE! I'M ON A ROLL! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!
