"Hmmm. Tough decisions here... but I'm gonna bank on that Bellsprout not being able to swim well. Gorebyss, Water Pulse the Chimecho down, and then swim away from that Bellsprout."
Bellsprout will get an AoO (Struggle Attack) as it swims 6 meters down after spraying more water at Scier.

As if by some destiny timing, the Vortex fades from Scier, leaving her in full view of the worn down opponent. She unleashes a (hopefully) final blast! Lia uses Brutal Orders on Scier!

Nathan snaps his fingers as his Gorebyss passes out from the psychic attack and floats back to the surface. He recalls it.
"Phew. That was a close match, Lia. If you hadn't smacked Drew around so quickly, I might have made it. You're definitely strong enough to face Leader Alei."
Lia earns 74 Poke XP, 1500 PYen, and 2 Misc XP (1 each from Drew and Nathan).

Lia recalls Chwast and Scier.
"Well his were spittin out type advantage attacks. And we couldn't have THAT, afterall. But you ain't so bad yourself, Nathan. But, is that it, just a double battle with you guys and we get in? Feels like not much. Pewter has that whole sandstorm that nearly drove my friend over there mad."

"Hahaha. Yeah, I bet. Nah though, that's really it. Aleisandra doesn't really feel like messing with trainers as much as some other Leaders. If you're strong enough to take on 2 of us Gym Trainers solo, then you're good enough. Unless of course, you *want* me to find something special for you to do?"
He grins.

Lia's hands end up on her hips, and she tilts her head to the side.
"Oh? And what exactly did you have in mind behind that grin of yours?"

"Eh? What? Oh, nothing nefarious or anything. I don't really have anything special that either of us would want to do that relates to the Gym. Honestly, the double battle thing is really it. Unless you can think of something?"

Lia smirks.
"Riiiiight. So no challenge you to something and if you win we have to date lime your friends over there?
Lia makes a motion toward the girls.
"I totally believe you."

"Hey, while admittedly I'd love to take you out sometime, I didn't think it'd be fair to push it on you as part of a wager on a battle. Plus, you won anyway, so you wouldn't have to do anything."

Well he really hasn't done anything sleezy. Totally not the punching bag I was going for at the beginning. We'll see...
"Well at least you have some restraint compared to the girls. A bit dissapointing they lost. Maybe I should bug Floyd to give those dates a try at least. Totally not because I want to see the trainwreck, though. But as for this?"
She points to her and Nathan.
"I suppose I gotta come back to tackle that registration for the gym trainer thing unless me and your leader don't get along for some reason. We'll talk then."
Lia gives a sly wink.
"Speaking of... where do I go to fight Alei? And is there a healing machine in-house because I won't last two seconds with the 3 and a half pokemon I got left, heh."

"Megan and Amanda? They do that with most of the guys that walk in here, though Megan seems genuinely upset that she didn't get that forced date for some reason. Maybe she really likes him? I dunno. Girls have always been and will always be a mystery to me."He shrugs. "Don't worry about not getting along with Alei. She's pretty cool. May come across as a bit "cold", but mostly that's just professionalism. Or so I've convinced myself. As for the healing, yeah, we got a place. Better than flooding poor Nurse Luna's Pokemon Center every time we get stomped. Nurse Luna insists that it's no trouble, but between you and me, she seems like she pushes herself too hard to always be there to help people and pokemon at any hour of the day. Sometimes I wonder if she even sleeps.. but anyway!
You'll be facing Alei right here in this room. I just need to let her know when you're ready. While your team gets healed, maybe we can get started on that Gym Trainer app? The more details and such you work out now, the less you have to do when you come back."With that, he leads you through the locker rooms (which, of course, are gender separated), and then meets you on the far side of them, where there is a lounge of sorts for the Gym Trainers to relax, and even an office area which he says is mainly for running the business side of this building. Stuff like running the public pool, doing official Gym paperwork (yes, that is a thing), etc. The Gym Trainer application looks like a standard job application, just with the official League Seal on it. The requirements are even listed right on the front page: - Must be a registered Pokemon Trainer of at least 16 years of age.
- Minimum work hours*: 20 per week for Part-Time.
- As a Gym Trainer for Cerulean, must be able to swim, or take lessons if unable.
- Gym Trainers are allowed to have separate Gym and Personal Pokemon teams if desired.
- Minimum Wage*: 800 PYen/month
- Living in Cerulean is not required, but can only help you.
* - Subject to negotiation

She begins filling out the paperwork, going so far as to note her fishing hobby and the three water types she has of this time. She feels travel may be an issue, but Maxine has a Tropius. Maybe she would be convinced to let Lia breed it or at least borrow it. Then she could easily get back and forth without issue.
Once done she gives it back to Nathan.

"Ah, great. I'll be sure to give this to Alei when I see her next. If you'll wait in the main battle arena, I'll go get her."
While he heads off to fetch the Gym Leader, you make your way back through the women's lockers to the arena, which is now clean after the two big battles from you and Floyd. After only a few minutes, an (objectively) attractive red-head enters the room in a black bikini.
"Hello. You must be Lia Regal. Nathan speaks quite highly of you. I'm Aleisandra Andario, Leader of the Cerulean Gym." She looks you up and down, smiling slightly. "I think I understand what he sees in you. Let's get this battle started, shall we? This will be a Full Contact 2 on 2 match. Whenever you're ready, I'll meet you in the pool."
With this, she tosses a Poke Ball into the pool, then dives in along side of it. A Wartortle emerges from the ball, floating beneath the water next to her. They seem to be... talking? as they wait for you to join them.

Lia smiles as the leader dives in.
"Well let me join you then!"
She tosses Los' pokeball into the water and dives in herself. She surfaces, shaking water off of her head.
"And swimsuit put to use accomplished! Ah the water feels good. Probably won't when we are punching each other, though. Good thing I enjoy that part."
Lia laughs to herself.

"Wartortle, start off using Withdraw."
Aleisandra swims in a tight spiral around her Wartortle, gaining momentum as Wartortle hunkers down in its shell a bit; ready for the incoming attacks.
Leader uses Agility! Speed +2 Wartortle uses Withdraw! Defense +1

Lia smiles as she powers through the water, and at the last second pops out of the water. She spins in the air, extending her leg, with it landing on Wartortle's head. The attack seems to put a chink in the Wartortles defenses Los manages to get herself nearly close enough to fight but does no more than stare down the competition. Lia somehow manages to attack again in a display of unreal speed that nearly leaves ghost images amid the water splashing. She uses the water to spin-kick right through them both. Lia uses Bounce! AC 4 Flying Physical (Vulnerable, and then Paralyze on 16+) (User first shifts, adding +1 to their movement and jump capabilities, before attacking with Bounce) D5rBaCim1d20 2d10+31
Lia activates Roughneck! (Swift Action, spend an ap, reduce a stage of your choice on a target you hit with an attack CHOOSING: Defense) (6/7 ap remaining)
Lia then activates BURST OF SPEED RAWWWR WHOOOSH NOISES as a free action! She sets an initative equal to half of her own current init or lower, and acts again at that init this turn. (Setting at 7, although it doesn't matter a whole lot)
Los swims forward, and uses Leer vs Aleisandra and Wartortle[Who should be Vulnerable now for a round I think? I don't think it lasts longer than that from Bounce] (Due to Cone 2) AC 2 Normal Status (-1 Def stage on hit) 1d20
At her 2nd turn, Lia uses Splash as a shift to move down south of the Wartortle and gain +2 evasion until the end of her next turn. She then uses Aerial Ace vs Wartortle and Aleisandra (Through the use of the Pass keyword added in through Flip Out! Can't Miss (No crit roll due to Flip Out!) Flying Physical 2d6+29
Lia activates Roughneck on Aleisandra (Can't do both I don't think)! (Swift Action, spend an ap, reduce a stage of your choice on a target you hit with an attack CHOOSING: Special Attack) (5/7 ap remaining)

Despite the impressive display, both Aleisandra and her Wartortle remain up, though Wartortle looks quite a bit worse for wear. "Wartortle, use Scald on Carvanha."While Wartortle gears up for its attack, Aleisandra begins swimming rapidly around Lia in a corkscrew motion. The water churns and begins to turn, creating a massive whirlpool! Whirlpool AC 4 vs cx5rhHlQ1d20Damage: 1d8+16 Target is put in a Vortex. While in a Vortex, the target is Slowed, Trapped, and loses a Tick of Hit Points at the beginning of each turn. At the end of each turn, the user may roll 1d20 to end all of these effects; during the first turn, they must roll a 20 or higher to dispel the vortex. The DC is lowered by 6 each following turn, automatically wearing off on the fifth turn (20, 14, 8, 2, Dispel). 1d20·1d8+16

Lia's head spins as she watches the leader swim literal circles around her. "Holy HELL she's fast. Los, lets go get the turtle yeah?"Lia goes to move down but quickly finds that she is in a stinging vortex that follows her movement. "Whoah ok, that's not weird at all. (Or cool, I don't wish I could do that)."Lia swims down to the Wartortle and unleashes a flurry of flying fists, while Los swims down and around to hit it with dark powah! Wartortle is now Flanked!
Lia uses Acrobatics vs Wartortle(No items in hand, db 11) AC 2 Flying Physical DpuLYzMh1d20 3d10+31
Save Attempt 1: 1d20
Los uses Assurance! AC 2 Dark Physical (DB 12 due to Lia hitting it) 1d20 3d12+31
