Pyros had arrived at the stadium with his Charizard and took one of the battlefields. A plain battlefield with some rock outcropping. He stood in the middle of the battlefield and awaited for Stror patiently, but did spy some people walking in and sitting in the bleachers and a Lucario with bells training nearby.
That must be JC's Belle, he deduced mentally. He then spied Stror and his 'girlfriend', Kitty, walking through the gateway of the stadium to get to the main battlefields. Chuckling, he had Zarda warm up by flying around and doing aerial loops and dives.
Stror smiled at that, as he could tell that Kitty and Faith had been with each other for such a long time. "Why did you name her Faith? I named Lucario Jacquel after the Anubis character in a TV show relating to all the gods and goddesses of the world. There was this one guy who was a Lucario, and his name was Jacquel, and he worked for a super cool Pokemon. Don't remember which," he explained. Jacquel smiled at his trainer's explanation before talking to Faith. <
Well, I, too, had that same connection when I was born at the same time as Stror. My parents were a Lucario and a Pangoro. My father, Pangoro, came from a long line of specially bred Fighting-Types, so he was able to pass on most of what I know now. And even then, he taught me, with help of a few others, what I can use now. I don't remember them all, but it's good to have an arsenal that you can use.>
As Stror and Jacquel walked through the gate leading up to the stadium, Jacquel immediately sense the presence of another Lucario. He looked over and saw Belle. Blushing intensely, he was taken aback by her appearance here. He told Stror and Faith he'd be right back and ran over to Belle. <
Hi, Belle, what are you doing? Training? I'm going to battle my trainer's brother's Charizard in a bit if you are interested in watching.> His blush died down quite considerably, as he got a little used to talking to a female of his species. (

Stror just chuckled and called out to Pyros. "YO! You ready?"
"I'm always ready!" chuckled Pyros, as he made a sharp whistle and ran off to the opposite side of the field.
Stror smiled and looked back at Kitty. "I think it would be best if you stay back. Our battles get intense and I don't want you or Faith to be a casualty." (

As Stror awaited a response from Kitty and Jacquel awaited a response from Belle, Miel and Shade smiled at their opponents. Once Alex and his Alolan Vulpix were in a safe spot, Shade bowed at her opponents, while talking in a mocking tone. "You pick first move, you two. We are giving you all the advantages right now."
The other two were a little concerned that Miel and Shade weren't concerned about their Pokemon's typing. Do these two know the ins and outs of a battle? Possibly, if they aren't in the class and they are. The lady who had the Frost Rotom told it to use Thunderbolt on Walrein. That was sorely ineffective, as the lightning rushed over to Pichu instead and it looked like she just absorbed the attack. Chuckling a little, Shade just shook her head. "My Pichu has Lightning Rod, making your Electric attacks useless. Try again."
Frustrated, the lady told her Frost Rotom to use Blizzard. An attack he could get behind, the man also called out to his Alolan Sandslash to use Blizzard. They didn't know that Walrein was a dual Ice/Water-Type apparently, so Chu just jumped on the Walrein's back as he tanked two Blizzards with ease. He just stood there with a stoic face as the blizzards kept coming, and then died down. Miel just shook his head in disappointment. "My Walrein has a quadruple resistance to Ice-Type attacks. Man, you must really be woefully terrible to be in a battle club."
Now angered, they told their Pokemon to attack, with Frost Rotom using Ominous Wind while the Alolan Sandslash used Earthquake. As the Sandslash smashed the ground and cracks began to form towards the Walrein and Pichu, still situated on his back, the Frost Rotom was unaffected by it as it released a powerful gust of eerie wind at them.
Miel and Shade both shouted, smirking, "Now! Ice Floor-Volt Tackle!"
Walrein used an Ice Beam to stop the Earthquake from advancing and covering the floor with ice. It was pretty uneven, but that didn't stop the Pichu from jumping over Walrein's head, enveloping in electricity, just dodging the Ominous Wind, and heading towards the Alolan Sandslash. The Alolan Sandslash used Dig to escape, but the Pichu went in after it. The Alolan Sandslash tried its best to slash at the Pichu while they were down there, but Pichu was able to out-battle it with a variety of moves. Even though some were resisted by the Steel-Type, it did do a number on the Sandslash. Among those was Mega Punch, Mega Kick, Iron Tail, Thunder Punch comboed with Charge, and Headbutt.
Meanwhile, Walrein, after being hit by the eerie wind but looking like he didn't feel a thing, used Hail. Even though Pichu was the only one not an Ice-Type, the Walrein did it for a completely different reason. The Walrein got itself ready cold mist seemed to disperse everywhere around the field, and then his body glowed a sharp icy blue as he then expelled a powerful wave of ice towards the Frost Rotom. The Frost Rotom tried to move away, but it wasn't fast enough. The Sheer Cold hit, and the Frost Rotom froze immediately and broke out in one piece, but was knocked out.
Pichu was still hammering the Alolan Sandslash underground and got him tired enough to pop out without him running after her. Pichu slid across the ice as Miel laid his one final move: Earthquake. The Walrein lifted itself up on his tail and slammed back down on the ground, just as when Pichu jumped on his head. The earth crackled under the ice and the burrow the Sandslash made trying to attack with Dig collapsed with him still underneath. He tried his best to escape, but was ultimately crushed, his claw poking out of the ground.
Looked like Shade and Miel won. The two trainers were horrified at the brutality they just witnessed upon their own Pokemon as they returned them. They ran off without a word, finding the nearest place to heal them. Shade and Miel smiled as they gave each other a high five. Todo the Walrein slid over to Miel's side and gave Alex a very strange look, while Chu returned to her rightful place on Shade's shoulder and waved at Alex and Snow. (
