An Adult In Pokemon

"Nope. I will if he asks for help." Gray said. Tyrunt lowered its head and built up power around its head. It used Skull-Bash to meet the Tackle.

"Bam!" Electrike with sailing across the ground from the hit.

"Bar!" With a groan, the little Pokemon struggled to get up. "Trike!" As soon as it recovered Tyrunt was there already. Mouth opened as it prepared to fire.

"Ah!" Condu exclaimed. "Usee .. um use Dig!" The Gym Leader yelled quickly. His Electike immediately started digging a hole. In response, Tyrunt just jumped into the air over and over again. Power still in its mouth gathering. Smashing down fiercer each time. It was combining the strength in its legs with the move Stomp. "What is it doing?"

"Thump, thump, thump, thump!" With each landing, Tyrunt jumped in a different spot. All in a small area of each other. "Pop!" Electrike pops out of the ground near the third jump location.

"Bah!" Tyrunt turned and fired. A sonic blast fired in a cone from its mouth, as it tumbled back from the recoil. It had used the move Hyper Voice!

"Crack! Crack!" The ground distorted from the power. As both dust and dirt went in one direction. Electrike having just popped out of the ground was caught flat-footed.

"Bar!" With a whimper, the dust blinded. Then the dirt smacked its face. The blast of power sent it through the center to the edge of the arena.

"Ah! Shake it off and use... use.. Quick Attack!" Condu ordered. Electrike obeyed instantly and rushed back inside.

"Waaa!" Tyrunt had confused itself from the tumble. It stood on wobbly legs for a bit. Turning left and right it felt a little scared. "Roo roo." It cried out to Gray.

"I am right here. Just relax. Pay attention to nothing else." Gray thought to the Pokemon to calm it down. Instantly Tyrunt obeyed Gray. "Good job. Your enemy is coming right for you. Its speed is fast but nothing you cannot handle power wise. Get ready."

"Roo ro!" Tyrunt swiveled its head around and prepared itself. "Rooo!" It then used Iron Defense. A quick sheen of energy encased its body.

"Ruff!" Electrike smashed into Tyrunt right after.

"Sccrrh!" Tyrunt was pushed back maybe a foot. Before Electrike could get away. it"s mouth part. "Raaah!" Tyrunt used Bite and latched on. It then jumped into the air using Stomp on Electrike.

"Bam, bam, bam, bam!" It took four Stomp"s before Electrike stopped fighting back. Tyrunt had a predatory glint in its eye. But it held back and released the fainted Pokemon. However, it did so by one of the holes.

"Roo roo." Tyrunt kicked a little dirt over the hole and walked to Gray. The aide just stared for a bit at the whole and then at her brother who stood there dumbfounded.

"The winner Gray and Tyrunt!" She said quickly. Heading over she dug Tyrunt out the hole and checked it over. Turning to the side Gray was explaining to Tyrunt not to bury fainted Pokemon. The Pokemon looked apologetic but also confused. Pa.s.sing the Electrike to her dazed brother, she walked closer. "Excuse me Gray."

"Hold on. Tyrunt you have to hold back a little in regular battles." Gray explained again. Tyrunt shook its head no. "Haaa yeah I know it bites. But holding back is a good way to learn as well. You can not become an Apex Predator if you take everything out quickly."

Tyrunt waved its head around in wonder. It then looked stood up and looked at Gray in the eyes. It made the chomping motion. Gray in turn put out his hand and let the Pokemon bite down.

"Chomp!" It used Crunch as it bared down with everything it had. Gray did not flinch as he waited. It took three minutes of effort before Tyrunt let go. It then licked Gray"s hand and nodded.

"Good. Now return." Hitting the return, Tyrunt rested in its ball. "Now what were you saying miss?"

"Miss Valerie. Or Val for short." She looked around the arena and noticed it was not that bad off. "Thank you for holding back. This is actually the gym"s first lost." Valerie noticed Gray did not seem surprised by that. "You already knew didnt you?" Val reached for the Bolt badge and pa.s.sed it over. Gray then saw the bubble message appear.

(Bolt Badge obtained. $1200 received. 5 trainer points awarded for not causing a problem. No TM.)

"Yes. Your gym is quite the buzz on the forums. I also no why you are undefeated. Pity..." Gray said. "Your brother"s condition or att.i.tude can p.i.s.s a person off. Your popularity or infamy will soon cause problems for the gym."

"Yeah.. you are not gonna file a complaint are you? If an Elite Trainer does it will be problems." Val said quickly.

"No. Just this cannot continue. I will write my report and turn it in to the Officials. A copy will be given to you as well. Trainer"s who fight wildly would like this place but not .. well not tamer ones. Soon someone will get p.i.s.sed and go all out." Gray stopped and thought about it. "Take over as Gym Leader. Have your brother take the aide position."

"I.. cannot do that to him." Valerie shook her head no to emphasize. "This is his dream. He even rebuilt the place on his own. The money raised for the place was done by him." The two talked for about 20 minutes until her brother returned.

"Sorry. The Pokemon Center was still closed nearby. Nurse Joy was still working the disturbance from yesterday." Condu looked around the arena for a bit then back as Gray. "Thank you for the battle."

"I wouldn"t call it a battle per se. But thanks for the exercise." Gray was unnerved by how the Gym Leader was able to act normally without the other people nearby. "Your social issues.. you need to let the Trainer"s know about it beforehand. It should help them understand before rumors spread even more so. Have you thought about getting help?" Gray leaned back on his leg waiting for the response. He had a little more time to waste so why not.

"I have. Its just stage fright. The lights and the cheering starts getting to me." Condu said. Seeing Gray unperturbed face, he thought the worst. "I cant separate the arena and take out the lights. The fans and people need to see the gym matches!"

"Haaa this is just crazy. ou need to get over your stage fright." Gray finished his report and turned to leave. "Good luck you two. Thank the heavens your Pokemon are strong. That is one good thing I can put in the report from my battle and the one I watched from the other trainers today." With a wave Gray left the building.

"At least Tyrunt had a chance to battle." Empress said before she left from inside him. Her tail wrapped around his neck as she held onto him. "Now what are we going to do?"

Head to Vermillion town and battle Pokemon on the way." Gray gave her a rub and started moving out. "Are you going to tell me what happened last night or not?"

"Hmmm nope." Empress smiled. "Sabrina will in time."

-A few Hours Later Vermillion City-

"Hmmm this place is different than what I thought. I need to check something right quick." Gray mumbled to Empress. As he walked, he checked over his Pokegear to double check something. The area had increase police personal. "Lt.Surge seems to be the one from the comics. A criminal and Pokemon trader. But Sabrina said he was undercover the same as her. So.. their is that. It does not seem like the people treat him unfairly. I guess he made a good choice for an undercover being from Unova and all. Kind of weird that is the equivalent of America in this world."

"Gray the Pokemon Center is over there!" Empress pointed as she leaned to the side a little. "We need to check in for a good bed. No sense in getting a hotel or temporary apartment. We are leaving after the badge right?"

"Yup. I will check jobs in the area to make sure but that is about it." Gray said. He then went into the Pokemon center. However, a surprise was there instead. "Huh arent you Hilda?"

"Huh?!" The Pokemon Ranger turned around. "Hey Gray. Thought you were sick?" Hilda was no longer dressed like a Pokemon Ranger. Instead, she looked like a Trainer. The weirdest was the vest she had on. "Surge." She walked over to face him pointing at the jacket she said, "my full name is Hilda Oak Surge. Sorry but me and my sister dont like to talk about certain things much. Especially with people we dont know. I am a former Pokemon Ranger now. Training to become a Gym Leader now."

"Right.." Gray outstretched his hand. "Just call me Gray Saint." They shook politely. "This is going better than before. You still upset with me?"

"Not really upset with you." Hilda rubbed her arm uncomfortably. "You just make me feel weird. You make my sister feel even weirder."

"Sorry about that hehehehe." Gray chuckled. "Oh how is your sister by the way? You yourself look fine."

"Yraining like crazt for some reason. Considering someone killed her Greninja." Hilda teased.

"Not sorry about that. It tried to.. ugh. Forget it." Gray moved to set up sleeping arrangements.

"Hey your just pa.s.sing through right? Come stay at the gym. It gives us the chance to talk away from people and I want to train against you. My mom wants to meet you." Hilda grabbed Gray by the arm not taking no for an answer. "Come on tough guy!"

"Alright just stp pulling. I can walk girlie." Gray said. Empress moved to the top of his head smiling.

"Who you calling girlie!?" Hilda looked back still draggin him.

"You have b.o.o.bs, a tight a.s.s, and a face of a.." Gray started but was stopped by Empress wrapping his mouth with her tail.

"Eh!" Hilda immediately let him go. "You defintely are.. something. Most guys wouldnt say s.h.i.t like that with a straight face." Hilda looked him up and down and changed her tune. "Gray will you come with me to the Vermillion Gym?"

"Ummm yeah." Gray answered moving Empress tail away. "I am not most guys." He shrugged and followed along. "s.h.i.t not really a guy as far as I can really tell if these dreams keep getting weirder at night."
