Welcome back to Pokécharms! We've recently launched a new site and upgraded forums, so there may be a few teething issues as everything settles in. Please see our Relaunch FAQs for more information.
"I've heard about. Z-Moves, i think it was called. Something native to the Alola region if my information is correct." Darrius says, trying to remember his studies at the HQ Lab back in Orre.
"Yes, that's what he told me. Top 16 in Sinnoh. I watched it on my flightback to Orre from Hoenn, he's a great trainer overall. Definitely better than me, though i battled him to a stalemate when i got here." Darrius says, having a quick flashback to his battle with Ry on Route 1.
"So, it looks like Storm and Sol are my best options against Misty. An electric type to handle a water/flying type, and a dark type to handle a water/psychic type. This should be interesting."
Darrius laughs. "Sounds like you have a close bond with your Larvitar there. I bet he'd get along with Kingsly, my Tyranitar, who is hanging out back home. Having a strong bond with your Pokemon is always the first step, trust me on that one." he says. Turning to Levi, he nods. "That's good to...
"Yes Robby, I was." Darrius said with a laugh. To Landon, he replies. "So am I, as a matter of fact. I think most of us among this little group here are."
Darrius glances at the new trainers sitting around him.
"Huh, when did you all arrive? Forgive me for not introducing myself earlier. Name's Darrius." he said, smiling at all of them.
Watching intensely, Darrius makes note how Misty commands her Pokemon, with grace and elegance befitting her reputation.
"This won't be easy, for sure." he murmurs.
Darrius perks up, watching Misty's Gyarados fend off Grace's Shockwave Spin.
"Most interesting." he remarks softly. The other trainers might find it odd for Darrius to be absorbed into spectating a battle like this.
After having observed everything as it unfolded, Darrius rises and follows the others back to Cerulean City.
"I can't imagine Misty will be any easier a battle than Forrest was." he remarks aloud, then looks down at the sleeping Raichu in his arms.
"You certainly see all sorts of Pokemon in the qualifying rounds for the leagues. I remember seeing some strange ones in the Hoenn League Qualifier, for sure." Darrius remarked. "I would be inclined to agree with you as well, on that quote. Someone will always rise to the occasion, even if they...
Darrius laughs. "I suppose I did forget that. But I wouldn't call that a battle so much as a floor-wiping. " he says.
"No, i was mostly referring to watching Michael battle in the Orre Colosseum. He used a Charizard for a long time. He was quite the trainer, and quite the Hero, stepping up to...
Content to watch the battle as well, Darrius sits in the grass beneath the tree, putting Storm in his lap.
"It's been a long time since I've seen a Charizard battle." Darrius says aloud.
"Rai..." a disheartened Storm retreats to Darrius' side, and plops down at his feet. Darrius kneels down and rubs his head.
"ya did good buddy. at least you tried, right?"
"Rai..." Storm replies, as if sighing.
Storm sees the two fire types staring each other down, hops down from Darrius' shoulder, and runs over to them.
"Rai! Rairai, Raichu!" it seems to be pleading with the two of them not to fight.
"Wow, i don't think i've ever seen an egg hatch that fast before." Darrius remarks. "must be your...
