" Double Team!"

Ralts let out a cry and made multiple copies of himself, spreading around the battlefield.

Tori squeaked nervously," Skiddo!" she cried," Vine Whip!"

Skiddo ran forward and released vines from its horns, hitting the multiple copies until it found the real one.

" Shadow Ball!" Amaria commanded, narrowing her eyes. Ralts built up a dark purple sphere in its 'hands' and threw it at Skiddo.

Skiddo flew back slightly, before it dig its hooves into the ground," Brick Break!"

Skiddo let out a cry as its horns started glowing red, before it ran at Ralts, ramming into it.

" Psychic!" Amaria cried, smirking slightly. Tori frowned, her eyes widening slightly.

Skiddo started glowing bright blue, while Ralts 'hands' also glowed blue, Skiddo slamming into the ground.

Tori looked at Skiddo and returned it," Good job...." she said quietly, clipping the pokèball to her belt frowning.

Amaria grinned, returning Ralts," Sweet battle." she said, rubbing the back of her head.

Tori sighed," Right...good battle." she said, biting her bottom lip. Amaria frowned and saw her friends expression.

She sighed and looked at her," Come on, let's go heal up." she said smirking, shrugging.

The brown haired trainer nodded," Alright." she said quietly, looking down. Aaron rolled his eyes, and groaned.

" Come on, we need to get to the next town." he mumbled, his face showing no emotion, with his Tangela by his side.

Aaron caught a Tangela, while Tori and Amaria each caught a Ralts.

Amaria shot a glare at him," Fight me." she said, balling a fist at her side. Aaron glared back, clenching his teeth together.

Tori looked at them and sighed softly," Guys...." she said quietly, biting her bottom lip.

Amaria looked back at Tori and sighed before punching Aaron in the arm," Right..." she muttered.

The brown haired trainer smiled, some brown haired falling over her one eye. She fixed it and hummed softly.

Aaron glanced back at her and walked inside the Pokèmon Center, his hands shoved in his pockets.

" I bet I could beat you Ria....Tori wasn't even trying." he mumbled, frowning. Amaria balled a fist again.

" Don't say that about Tori you jerk! She was trying her best!" Amaria shouted, narrowing her eyes.

Aaron glared at her and smirked," Tsk, as you mean her best you mean failing." he spat.

Amaris's one purple eye twitched before she ran over and grabbed Aaron by his jacket collar," SHUT UP!" she shouted.

He laughed, and kneed her in the gut," Both of you are weak...I could beat both of you into the ground in seconds."

She held her stomach and groaned," Oh! It's frickin on!" she shouted, grabbing a pokèball off her belt, holding it.

Aaron grabbed his own pokèball," Alright then, just don't cry when I beat you." he said smirking.

Amaria laughed," Oh? I'm not crying it front of s five year old boy....now am I?" she responded.

Both looked at each other," This is for insulting Tori!" Amaria said, smirking with her eyes narrowed.

Aaron rolled his eyes," Fennekin!" he shouted, clicking the button on the pokèball, his starter coming out.

Amaria kept her eyes narrowed," Froakie! You're up!" she cried, also the clicking the button on the pokèball, sending out her starter.

" Just because you have an advantage doesn't mean anything!" he shouted frowning, before he smirked.

" Bubble!" Amaria shouted, balling a fist, her eyes narrowed. Aaron laughed.

" Get up close!" he commanded. His Fennekin let out a cry before running at Froakie jumping on it, scratching at his face.

Froakie kicked her off with its hind legs, sending it flying in the ground before his fist was surrounded with water, running over and hitting Fennekin with a ring of water.

Amaria's eyes widened," What the......?" she asked. Tori's eyes were also wide.

" That was Water Pulse!" she called. Amaria looked over and nodded smirking.

" Water Pulse again!" she commanded, Froakie nodded, his fist surrounded with water again.

Froakie ran over and hit Fennekin again with a ring of water.

Fennekin let out painful cry before collapsing. Aaron sighed and returned Fennekin.

" Tsk....you won good flipping job." he mumbled frowning. Amaria glared at him, gritting her teeth together.

" Let's just get to the city."

***

River coughed again, clutching his chest for breath. Some silver hair fell over his one eye, he balled a fist and hit his chest, retrieving his breath.

Cain looked at him and sighed," You alright darling?" he said, wiggling his eyebrows. River coughed before nodding.

" Yes....I am fine..." he said gently, his eyes seeming paler. Cain frowned and put his jacket back on.

" If you say so....." he said, his Venonat sitting on his head. River smiled weakly, wiping some blood away from his mouth.

The silver haired trainer coughed again, looking up at Cain," Thank you....." he said gently, giving a tiny bow.

Cain gasped gently," O-of course....." he stuttered slightly, grinning like a child.

River laughed softly under his breath," Cain....right?" he asked quietly, rubbing his throat.

The purple haired trainer grinned," Yes sir! Cain as your service." he said, saluting. River stared at him for a moment.

" Thank you again....." he said gently. Cain blushed slightly before grabbing the silver haired boys hand.

" Come on! Let's go to the next city together!" he said, acting like a child. Cain laughed and grabbed a pokèball.

" But...after a battle?" he offered before River nodded shyly," Alri-alright..."

River grabbed a pokèball from his belt, and clicked the button in the middle, sending out his Shinx.

Cain nodded, his Venonat getting sucked in the pokèball. Before he grabbed another one and pressed the button.

" Nidoran!" Cain said, the poison pin Pokèmon let out cry and narrowed his red eyes.

The flash Pokèmon ran forward and looked at Nidoran," Inx!" Shinx cried, narrowing his eyes.

Nidoran growled," Double Kick!" Cain commanded, Nidoran ran towards Shinx.

" When he gets up close, use Spark!" River commanded, frowning. Shinx growled, having bolts of lightning surrounding him.

Nidoran tried to stop running before it was hit with lightning, sending it flying back.

Cain narrowed his eyes," You'll regret that!" he said frowning," Horn Attack!" he shouted.

Nidoran's horn started glowing white, running at Shinx before he hit Shinx in the face, making it cry in pain.

Shinx looked down, his eyes closed. He opened his eyes, narrowing them. Nidoran looked at Shinx, confused.

Shinx let out a loud cry before he started glowing white, almost blinding. His tiny figure grew into a bigger one.

River's eyes widened, looking at the glowing Shinx. The glowing stopped and Shinx was no longer there.

It was a bigger figure, that didn't look the happiest.

" LUX!" it cried loudly. River pulled out his pokèdex, biting his bottom lip.

Luxio, the spark Pokèmon

Strong electricity courses through the tips of its sharp claws. A light scratch causes fainting in foes.

This Luxio is a male, it knows the following moves;

Spark

Thunderbolt

Double Team

Round

Thunder

River looked at his newly evolved Pokèmon, smiling weakly," Yo-you evolved..." he stuttered happily.

Luxio nodded and let out a mighty cry, lightning bolts surrounding him again before they shot towards Nidoran, sending it flying back.

Cain looked down and returned his Nidoran, before he grinned like a child," Good job River! Next time you won't win so easily!" he said.

River looked at Cain," Next time?" he asked quietly, Cain nodded.

" Uh...yeah! I'll meet you again soon, and I wanna battle again. That was our first loss in a whole year!" he said, putting his hands on his hips.

River was stunned, his Luxio had evolved and he beat a person with a whole year non loosing streak.

" Next time...."
