Ask to Join Adventures in Dandur

@Lord Of Pain @Amon of the Dark Realm

Life for Jake was relatively lack luster after he became the frontier master of the Sinnoh battle frontier and opened an extension zone for any trainer strong enough to defeat the traditional battle frontier. Even then Jake felt bored as the few trainers that did manage to reach the extension zone were often an easy opponent even without the rather specific rules of the battle forge.
That was until he received a invitation that would ultimately change his life.

It was a boring run of the mill day on the prestige isles just north of iron island. The wingull and starly were chirping while gentle waves lapped the shoreline and the sounds of a raging Pokemon battle echoed throughout the closely connected islands
"So you have defeated my lucario, no easy feat I must say," said Jake as he returned his lucario and unhooked a small charm from his neck "very impressive however you are about to face a Pokemon that blurs the lines between perception and reality. Knightmare I call on your services!" Yelled Jake as he thrust his arm skyward and a grey blur shot from the peak of a nearby mountain, suddenly the blur settled revealing a Pokemon covered in glimmering metal like scales and rough leathery skin. Slowly piercing red eyes appeared from the darkness and a deafening roar bellowed from its now gapping mouth
"The end has arrived, knightmare use wyvern wing, show them your unrestricted power!" Yelled Jake as knightmare's arms and wings began to glow with a dim but slowly building torrent of purple energy as the beast rose higher and higher off the ground
"Quickly Salamance use Draco meteor!" Yelled the young trainer standing opposite jake, the Salamance knew what to do roaring as it summoned a barrage of meteors which left the field in a major state of disarray. Finally the barrage stopped as one singular meteor the size of a small car began to plummet directly toward the still charging knightmare. Then mere seconds from Impact knightmare sprung to life and with a singular slash reduced the meteor to a cloud of glimmering dust and that was just the beginning as knightmare launched itself toward the Salamance before lashing out with a series of slashes, punches and energy blasts causing a huge explosion. When the dust finally settled Salamance lay in a large crater fainted.
"Wha, what? How? How did I lose?" Mumbled the trainer holding back tears
"Knightmare's signature move does more damage the longer it charges and if charged for long enough can even absorb the energy from an opponents attacks." Stated Jake as he walked over to the trainer offering him his hand
"I haven't felt that exhilarated by a battle in a long time, thank you"
"The feeling is mutual" replied the young boy as he returned his Salamance and wandered off in the direction of the Pokemon center

---1 hour later---

"Jake, a letter came for you this morning" said Athena, Jake's AI assistant as he entered the lobby of 'the prestige lodges' the best and only completed hotel in the still under construction resort complex
"Thank you Athena, I'm on my way up now" replied the young frontier brain as he entered a private elevator and swiped his key card, within minutes Jake had climbed the 36 stories to his penthouse and the doors opened directly into his living room
"Jake the reconstruction team has already begun work on battling field 3 but please in future avoid turning it into an assortment of meteors and blast craters, oh and that letter I mentioned earlier is sitting on the kitchen counter for you."
"Thanks again Athena" said Jake as he strolled into his kitchen and grabbed the gold embossed envelope
"Hmm that's weird no senders address, oh well then it's probably not fan-mail and its not bills either so ... Holy mother of Arceus!" Yelled Jake as he opened the letter and began to read its contents

'To Frontier Master Jake Anistar, you have been officially invited to participate in the newly established Dandur regional league.

Signed Dandur regional league administration department'

"Holy crap, six days to get to Lumiose I need to pack, Athena activate quick pack protocols and inform all of my Pokemon scattered across the islands to return in poke-bank for collection and allocation of training regimes" yelled Jake as he moved to a computer in the corner of the room and began selecting his seven Pokemon to accompany him on his journey
"Scar, Hot-shot, Genji, Reinhardt, Road-hog, Bastion and of course Knightmare" murmured Jake as he worked frantically to organize not only the Pokemon he was taking to Dandur but also organizing training programs for his remaining Pokemon.

---6 days later in Lumiose city---

"Guys we're here lets go meet the competition" chuckled Jake as he entered the prism tower conference room
 
Nick Asier was having yet another normal day in his average Pokemon Trainer life, or so he thought.

It was cold on the mountain tops and snow was everywhere, Nick has just woke up and finished tidying his room with the help of his Pokemon, after he was done he headed downstairs, he prepared breakfast for him and his Pokemon before hearing a knock on the door, "must be the mailman...." he said fully aware that rarely anyone would climb up the snowy mountain and come to his wooden cabin other than the mailman, he was right as the moment he opened the door he was handed a handful of envelopes, he went on reading the contents of an Envelope after the other, burning the unimportant ones in his brick fireplace, he finally came upon an invitation which he started to read out loud for his Pokemon as well as himself.

'To Nicolas Asier, you have been officially invited to participate in the newly established Dandur regional league. Yourself and nine others will compete to qualify for the league finals where in which the winning trainer will be crowned champion of Dandur and awarded a seat upon the Pokemon world masters council.

"Well what do you know? Looks like we are on to another adventure!" He said as he headed off to pack up, he knew which Pokemon he was taking with him, and was exited to meet the others that where invited too

---6 Days later in Lumios city---

Nick walked down the hall with his Electrivire Thor by his side, "hope I haven't forgotten anything that I would need" he said as he entered the prism tower conference room only to see a familiar trainer already there, "um excuse me, hi I'm Nick Asier" he introduced himself.
 
"Nick Asier?, I recognize the name not quite sure where though, have we met before?" Asked Jake as he spun around to greet the trainer and Scar emerged from its Poke-ball to greet Nick and more importantly Thor
Soon a rapidly growing sound of cutlery upon drinking glass began to ring through out the conference room
"Could all Dandur invitees please take their seats for the presentation to begin shortly" said the mellow voice of a short aging man in a crisp grey suit, Mr Yuko the Dandur region administration chairman, from behind a small lectern at the front of the room. Soon the 10 trainers were ushered to a pair of curved conference tables that formed a horse shoe shape around the lectern
"Hey looks like we'be been sat next to each other, better try and make a good first impression with all the officials and the other competitors" said Jake as he returned scar and drifted toward his allocated seat
 
"Yeah your right, by the way we fought during a tournament before, remember?" Nick asked as he returned Thor into his poke ball, he headed off to his seat next to Jake's and his mind started playing flashbacks of their battle, Jake was no joke when he fought, Nick new it would be interesting to have him as part of this adventure.
 
"Oh yeah I remember that, Slateport right?" Asked Jake as he slipped into his chair, just as Mr Yuko began his speech
"Hello Dandur competitors, for those who don't know me my name is Satoshi Yuko and I am the Dandur regional administration chairman. But enough about me, soon the ten of you will be arriving in and beginning your journeys. However to prevent overcrowding of specific towns or cities the ten of you will be divided into two groups each starting in different cities. You each will be given a map and recommended gym order, you don't have to follow this order but we highly recommend it. Secondly you all will notice there is a briefcase beneath your tables, within that briefcase is your poke-nav, and ID cards. Your poke-Nav is of course the latest model and already loaded with maps, guide books and gym leader bios. They also function as communicators for you to keep in touch with friends, family and fellow competitors. On to your ID cards they of course function as access passes to Dandur events and as debit cards for use throughout the region. They also display the number of gyms each of you has defeated so guard them carefully they will not be reissued. Finally a public safety announcement in recent weeks we have had increasing resistance to our efforts to establish the Dandur league officially from a group known as team Osiris, and as the region is relatively young we are yet to have measures in place to deal with such a threat. As such we ask for you ten to keep an eye out for anything strange and to report it to the authorities. Thank you and ... Oh wait before I forget regional rules dictate that only 7 battling Pokemon are allowed per competitor however what your invitations failed to mention is that each competitor is also allowed a companion Pokemon to accompany them on their journey. Thank you" the aging man concluded his speech to a round of applause and moved to usher waiters into the room with trays of food
 
Nick sat there listening to the whole speech, 'this will be interesting' he thought to himself as he watched the waiters bringing in trays of food, he gave a quick glance at Jake to see how he is taking this in, 'last time he had some tricks hidden up his sleeves and that was in a small tournament, Arceus knows what he has hidden for a new region, but this time I have tricks of my own' he thought to himself as the waiters moved around
 
Jake noticed nicks glance and smiled, gesturing toward the PokeNav in his hand,
BARRRDING the sound of a PokeNav text sounded from within nicks briefcase
'Hey Nick, judging by this trainer list we are probably the most experienced people here wanna team up and travel together?'
"What ya say?" Asked Jake smiling at the young trainer
 
Nick read Jake's text in his head, it sure was a great idea, much better than going against him that's for sure
Nick started typing his reply to Jake's question before sending it to him
'Sure! id gladly team up with a trainer as strong as you Jake!' Nick replied as he smiled back
