~Jessie, Cassidy, & Domino POV~
An annoyed voice under disguise as a character that no one around them seemed to recognize, consisting of a curvaceous figure, a secretary or teacher-like outfit and emerald eyes and blonde hair asked, "Why are we following them again?"
Another short, polite looking almost innocent girl with blond hair and emotionless red eyes wearing a disguise that consisted of an all black almost lolita like outfit, sweetly said, "Jessie you're tearing apart that handkerchief."
The girl named Jessie who was stretching a poor handkerchief due to anger at seeing a familiar figure finally calmed down and went back into character almost perfectly matching her disguise of a girl wearing school uniform with long flowing red hair, blue eyes, and a noble aura and massive boobs tucked the handkerchief back into her pocket before the first voice asked again, "So why are we wearing those costumes that… He got us again…? I haven't seen this thing in years… I'm getting bad memories just being in it again."
Domino silently agreed before pulling out a bag of Taiyaki from somewhere as she began nibbling on one slowly.
Jessie finally said, "Obviously it's because we ran out of funds… Because someone decided that watching the Morita heir buy all of those fashionable clothes meant they had to too. So we're stuck with the only damn disguises we had left."
Cassidy made a klutz face and stuck her tongue out, "Ehe."
Jessie rolled her eyes and said, "I'm not saying it."
Domino coughed and said, "For old time's sake?"
Jessie sighed deeply and said with emotion, "Ehe?!? Te nandayo?!"
The trio laughed bitterly for a moment before Jessie said, "I still don't get his humor to this day…"
Cassidy sighed and said, "Well… I thought it was cute…"
Domino coughed into her fist and said, "Shouldn't we… You know, focus on the task at hand?"
Jessie and Cassidy shrugged and Jessie said, "It's just a gym… I'm sure he'll win… But yeah… We're here to watch and record a video so we can-"
Cassidy finished her sentence, "Have our daily fill of Soutarou's face!"
Domino smiled and said, "As expected of you two!"
All of a sudden Domino's hair moved, forming an arm and pulling out a bucket of popcorn out thin air. Cassidy deadpanned as she watched Domino's Hatterene control her hair psychically, before she finally said, "You don't have to sell the act that hard…"
~Soutarou POV~
The trio of Kaede, Misty, and Soutarou quickly approached the Pewter Gym; they still hadn't noticed the figures following them. Regardless, as they approached the squat stone like fortress that almost seemed like a stone warehouse rather than a Gym, Soutarou turned a bit curious. As the trio neared the entrance and entered the dark, almost cave-like Gym they saw a split for challengers and spectators. As Soutarou walked down the challenger lane or path, he had to admit the presentation of the gym was truly on point.
'Even if Brock isn't the strongest… This kind of presentation will mess with the nerves of a weak challenger… Effectively acting like another line of defence for the Gym from getting challenged unnecessarily…'
As Soutarou walked down the dark hall and into an open space, just up ahead lie a small elevated platform where there was young tanned skinned, brown spiky haired man with narrowed eyes that seemed almost closed at first glance and a standard outdoors outfit that consisted of a green vest, a muted orange shirt, khaki pants, and two red signature pokeballs attached to his belt. The man was seated, in an almost meditative position with his narrowed eyes not moving at all.
Soutarou looked around, but he didn't move towards the man in the slightest as he said, "I'd like to challenge the gym."
The man turned his head upwards and then snapped his fingers with a jagged terrain sliding out of the sides of the once steel closed walls. The gym lights flickered on with Brock jumping down in dramatic fashion and saying, "Very well… As a gym leader I must accept all challenges… Both sides will only use two Pokemon. Do you agree?"
Soutarou smiled and said, "Of course."
Brock's furrowed brows relaxed a bit and he said, "Good. Then before we begin let's begin by introducing ourselves… I am Brock, the gym leader of the Pewter City gym, and you are?"
Soutarou said courteously, "Soutarou. Soutarou Morita of Viridian City."
Brock nodded before slightly glancing over to a referee who was suddenly standing at an elevated platform before the referee announced, "Trainer Soutarou challenges the Pewter City Gym, the battle will end when either the Gym Leader's pokemon are unable to battle or challenger fails to do so. Both sides will use two Pokemon, the Gym Leader cannot switch Pokemon and will reveal their Pokemon first."
Brock tossed out a Pokeball with vigor, "Onix, Go!"
Soutarou's hand slid to his waist and he spun a Pokeball on his finger like a basketball before flicking it upwards and catching it and tossing it in style.
'I thought about this for a while… but for Milotic I think this is a pretty good opening line…'
Soutarou slipped his hand into his pocket and calmly said, "Crash in like a wave… Milotic!"
Milotic appeared in her full majesty, and the opposing Onix narrowed its eyes as both trainers made no sudden moves.
The referee finally said, "Let the battle begin!"
Soutarou immediately called out, "Milotic Dragon Pulse hit the sprinkle above us and burst the water pipe!"
'Can't let Ash get an easy win… Let's make his life difficult.'
Milotic released a short burst of blue before water began to drizzle across the entire field making Brock instantly frown, before calmly responding with, "Don't let it engage close, Onix. Hit it with a
As the Rock Slide neared Milotic, Soutarou just flicked his hand up and Milotic who had been coiled up sprung upwards letting the Rock Slide flow past it before landing gracefully and preparing its water energy already feeling Soutarou's intentions from the faint trace of Viridian Power he left connected to Milotic.
Soutarou smiled before saying, "Rain Dance. Then Surf. Flood the arena."
Brock's face turned black and somewhat annoyed, before he let out a sigh and kept his narrowed eyes on the field as Onix's digging thundered around.
Milotic wagged her tail and danced as the drizzle from the sprinkler turned into a downpour of rain, before water energy surged in a tall rolling wave that crashed right into the battle field, before Soutarou grinned and said, "Milotic, Hydropump into the Dig's hole. Keep blasting it. Flush it out of the ground."
Brock's brows furrowed further before he said, "Onix!"
Onix shot out of the muddied ground and instantly became slower as water landed on its stony surface it charged toward the elegant blue haired, golden tailed Milotic in a mad charge, as Brock added on, "
Soutarou remained calm and said, "Surf again. Then Iron tail on its head."
Brock gritted his teeth, "Onix forget the Iron Head! Use Earthquake to open a gap and let the Surf get flushed out!"
As Brock said that instead of another massive wave forming he saw Milotic jumping into the air and a stream of water blasting right into Onix, throwing it backwards and causing it to fall onto its back.
Brock turned confused and muttered, "Hydropump…?"
Soutarou smiled and said, "Good job on confusing him, Milotic. Use Brine. Finish it off."
Brock tried to order Onix to use Protect, but it was futile as Milotic almost instantaneously fired off the Brine, making it seem as if Milotic had the move prepared before Soutarou said it out loud.
And that was it, Onix passed out with swirls forming in its eyes.
The referee called out, "Onix is unable to battle!"
Brock's gaze tightened, but he nodded approvingly before tossing out his next pokemon saying, "Geodude, Go!"
Soutarou waited respectfully knowing this was already a won battle as did Brock, the rain hit Geodude making it visibly uncomfortable. It looked back at Brock and complained, "Dude!"
Brock sighed and said, "Geodude, Stone Edge!"
Soutarou nodded his head and then said, "Hydropump. Increase the water pressure, blast through the stone, and hit the Geodude."
Brock tried again to have his Pokemon evade or block with Protect, but Milotic blasted straight through the stone edge at such an angle that it went through a gap in the first layer of stone and blasted straight through the last layer and sniped with the sluggish Geodude with pinpoint accuracy.
Geodude cried out in pain, but before it could even imagine recovering a Brine blasted it straight into consciousness.
Brock stared at Soutarou in sheer shock and then Milotic, while he couldn't tell exactly what was happening he had already caught on that Soutarou's commands out loud were just for show. Squinting his eyes further he noticed a very light gold hue lightly tracing around Milotic.
Brock sighed and recalled his Geodude, before working his way over to Soutarou…
~In the stands while the battle had started, Kaede and Misty POV~
Both Misty and Kaede looked over at the curvaceous figure with Red hair and blue eyes and glanced at her chest, before cursing her a bit before Kaede thought,
Misty on the other hand didn't pay much more attention to the trio, just assuming they were the usual gym battle watching crowd and focused her eyes on Soutarou. Kaede also watched with interest and both Kaede and Misty were genuinely surprised at his utilization of the battlefield and surroundings.
Kaede thought, <...As expected… It's not his trainer ability, but his Pokemon that are holding him back right now… I suspect if I handed him champion tier pokemon he wouldn't struggle very much other than adjusting to the level of power…>
The result of the battle surprised neither Misty, nor Kaede, but Soutarou's speed sure did. They began to work their way down leaving behind a trio of two blondes and a redhead.
~The Rocket Trio POV~
Domino in her Golden Darkness cosplay or rather disguise whistled and said, "That was quick."
Jessie narrowed her eyes and said nothing, but her pleasant and soft smile revealed a lot. While Cassidy seemed to have a fanatical expression on her face and she said, "Those tactics! It has to be-"
Jessie interjected, "Let's go. No point in sticking around any longer… We saw what we came for and that battle just confirmed more things for us didn't it? Plus if I'm not mistaken… that was Kaede Joy… While the three of us could take her… It's better not to draw the gaze of the league right now."
Domino nodded and Cassidy reluctantly agreed, but all three cast one last glance back, only to be met with Soutarou burning gaze…
~Soutarou POV~
'RIAS GREMORY?!?!?! GOLDEN DARKNESS? TEARJU LUNATIQUE? WHAT THE- Am I in the right universe? Hello… Moshi Moshi~ Author-san… I think you dropped the wrong characters into the timeline!'
'The way that girl is snacking… That's totally Yami- I mean Golden Darkness…. Damn… Is this a cross over universe? Ah… I'm fucked then.'
'Wait a minute…'
{Ralts quietly psychic scan those three really quick.}
Ralts' angry and fearful voice responded, {Master! It's them! It's that trio of bitches again!}
Soutarou's brow relaxed… Before furrowing deeply and he finally confirmed that sinking suspicion of his… 'The other Soutarous… They're transmigrators too!'
Feeling an emotional surge of confusion and caution from her master she prepared to warn Kaede and Misty before Soutarou's voice rang out in her mind, {Don't say anything. They aren't here to fight. I have a strong feeling they were just verifying something… They'll leave soon, fighting them now is a fool's errand… But I promise when we get strong… We'll spank the hell out of those damn girls!}
Ralts' pokeball shook in confusion before she just thought to herself…
