As Blaze closed the distance, Bolt continued to charge up, raising his electrical power to even greater heights. As the air began to sizzle and hum, finally, Bolt reached maximum power. "Alright Bolt, let's give Blaze a warm Nuvema Town welcome! Use Thunder Shock, let's go!," Jack said enthusiastically. Bolt nodded, focusing on his empowered electric attack, straining with effort. "Piiiiiiii~ CHU!," he cried as he released a massive bolt of lightning, striking the Growlithe head-on! Jack uses Focused Training on Bolt.
Bolt uses Thundershock on Blaze, with AP. Rolled a 19+3=22 to hit and 52 for Damage. Blaze is paralyzed, if not knocked out. =P

Luke grins as the Spritzee calls forth some lights. "Pretty lights! Gawain, show them some of your own tricks, Flail!"The Eevee jumps at the Spritzee, limbs moving erratically as he crashes into the Fairy type. Luke uses Focused Training as an Order, +2 on AC chcecks Gawain uses Flail! AC2: 9, 44 Physical Normal Type damamge

Wait, he's a dance kid? Huh. Azrael held his fist forward as the announcer talked, and Aethon hopped down to his wrist, watching intently. They're really hamming this up, aren't they? Azrael blinked slightly as Matthew released small blue and green frog-plant pokemon. Huh. Kind of an ugly fellow. At least he won't have much of size advantage. "Alright, Aethon, let's do this!" Azrael raised up his fist and Aethon took off, heading up and towards Kappa. Aethon has Inspired Training applied as a Training feature, and Azrael will be using it as an Order as well.
Aethon is going to Sprint, and go up four meters and forward three meters, or up six meters and forward one meter, dependent upon whether we're counting his starting position perched on Azrael. (Goal is to be six meters above Kappa so as to be out of range of most short-ranged attacks, even if it jumps.)
To abbreviate things (so as to keep some semblance of pace with everyone else), Aethon can be assumed to be moving forward until he is exactly six meters above Kappa, unless a Move or something effects him (in which case I'd need to re-plan). Azrael will be sticking with Inspired Training as well.

DaveLaughter echoes from across the field "You just gonna keep running back and changing colours? Maybe that yellow fit you better then the pink does!" His voice took on a different tone "Hit him again Crash. Hard this time" The Croagunk rushed forward a few meters before letting loose another punch into the air Jeff is using Brutal Training as an order
Crash hit with a Vacuum Wave, 33 special fighting damage LukeAs Gawain slammed into the fairy, one of the lights sprang to life and smashed into him "They are pretty, and pretty effective!" Catelynn yells out "Alright Rose, blast him with a Fairy Wind!" The Spritzee spun around, a blast of pink energy flying into the Eevee The Spritzee seemed to be hurting, floating a bit lower than before She's using Inspired again
Both Fairy Winds hit, dealing 25 Fairy Special and 33 Fairy Special AzraelAs Aetheon sped upwards, the Lotad began to slowly move forward "Really? These people came to watch a fight and you're just going to fly up into the air? That's not dynamic! UGH" He seemed disappointed before calling out again "Kappa. When he gets close, I think it's about time the little bird got soaked!" After another few moments, Aetheon was gliding in circles above Kappa, the little Lily Pad Pokemon unable to do anything Well, Matthew is annoyed and using Focused Training
Aethon is now 6 above Kappa Jack"Alright Blaze g-" Ian was cut off by the blast of electricity hitting the Growlithe so hard that he immediately dropped to the grounds, sliding the last little bit to lie unconscious at Bolts feet. The Pichu looks down at the Growlithe, tilting his head and poking the fire dog until he seemed to stir a little. Satisfied that he didn't hurt Blaze TOO badly, Bolt runs back and jumps onto Jacks shoulder just in time for the announcer to ring out once more. "In a shocking turn of events, Hometown Hero Jack Roberts and his partner Bolt have taken a flawless victory! The duo will move on to the next round!" The crowd erupts into cheers for Jack and Bolt as soon as the announcement is made Ian stormed across the battle field, returning Blaze as he walked past until he was right in Jacks face "Who did you train under? Where did you get that Pichu? HOW THE HELL DID YOU BEAT ME!?" His voice seemed to get more frantic with each question, his eyes filled with anger

Luke fistpumps as Gawain succesfully crashes into the Spritzee, hurting the bird badly in the process. He frowns a bit when Gawain is hit by the pink bulb, followed by the pink gale from the Spritzee, hurting the Eevee and causing some small bruises to appear, but the frown quickly turns in a determined look. "Effective, alright, but not effective enough! Come on, Gawain, one last attack ought to do it! Tackle!"Gawain bodily slams into the Spritzee, shoving the Fairy type away by quite a distance. Luke uses Focused Training as Order, +2 to Ac checks Gawain uses Tackle! AC2: 19, DB7: 36 Normal Physical Damamge

"Think again," Dave says, smiling again after seeing at how little damage that next attack had done. "I'm just waiting for the right time. Like now. Web that frog, Hal." A bright web of electricity forms in the air, and shoots towards the Croagunk. "'Into my lair', said the cyberspider to the bug... I'll give you three guesses as to which one is your Croagunk." He smirks. "Because it looks like you'd need all three."
Dave uses Focused Training. Hal uses Electroweb (16 vs Ac 2), for 31 Special Electric Damage, and -1 Speed.
Momentum: 4 Acc bonus: +3 Evasion: 4/4/3

Jack waited tensely until Bolt confirmed that the Growlithe was down and unable to battle, and the announcer declared his victory before a smile crept onto his face, widening as Bolt ran back toward him. He caught the Pichu mid-jump, giving him a hug. "Great job, Bolt! That was perfect, just like we'd planned! And we won our first battle!," he said enthusiastically before letting the Pichu up onto his shoulder. As the crowd erupted with cheers, Jack couldn't help but look embarrassed, hardly used to the attention. He was scratching the back of his head and waving to the crowds when he saw Ian approaching.
"Uh oh, here comes Ian...and he doesn't look very happy...," Jack said quietly, just to himself and Bolt. Once Ian got close enough, Jack tried to start the conversation.
"Hey, Ian. Thanks for the-," was all he got out before the boy cut him off with his aggressive, frantic questioning. The ferocity of it caused Jack to flinch and he adopted a nervous look.
"Hey, calm down Ian, you don't need to get so upset," Jack said, trying to be nice. "I haven't trained under anybody, it's just me and Bolt. And Professor Oak gave me Bolt's egg when I was eight. I hatched it myself," he said with a small measure of pride. "And how I beat you? Well...Bolt's Thundershock was just too much for Blaze to handle, I guess...," he said awkwardly, trying not to sound insulting. Realizing that was probably not going to go over well, he started to back-pedal. "I mean...I guess I just got lucky. This was my first battle, it must've been beginner's luck...heh heh...," he said awkwardly, trying to be nice.

And that toad is dynamic? Azrael grinned, patiently watching Aethon dart up and over Kappa, then looked back to Matthew. "You want dynamic? We can do dynamic! Aethon, show him what you've got!" With a sharp chirp, Aethon dove in a tight spiral and slammed bodily into Kappa's back. Azrael - Inspired Training.
Aethon - Shift, flying down 5 meters (vertically adjacent to Kappa); Standard, Tackle (AC2 - 10, DB7: 29 damage).
I believe Aethon should be at Evasion 4.

DaveThe electric webbing wrapped around the frog, leaving marks where it had struck "Seems you do know how to fight back!" Jeff called out before turning to the crowd "Looks like we're gonna have an interesting fight after all!" Looking back towards Dave and Hal, Jeff frowned "Crash. That hurt you pretty bad. Get back and hit him harder this time, no excuses" The Croagunk responds by sending forth another pressurized blast of air, this time the strike going wide of Hal Well he was using Brutal Training
Sadly, he missed LukeAs Gawain smashed into the fairy type, it fell to the ground,fluttering for a second before being returned "It looks like distance didn't play a part in who won this match! Luke Towers from Accumula Town and his Eevee are the winners, moving on to the next match!" A cheer moved through the crowd Gawain trots back to Luke happily, before turning around and adopting his battling pose once again when he notices Catelynn coming over "Look.....I know I talked tough at the start but you battled really well. I may have let my parents down, but they'll be less disappointed in me if I lost to the winner, so do me a favour and go out and win the rest of this thing" She says with a smile, holding her hand out to shake Lukes 10 exp for that btw Azrael A sly grin came over Matthews face "Perfect, thank you for coming so close" The Lotad slid back a few meters before charging back forward "Kappa, I think you and Aetheon should have a little chat" As the Lilypad approaches Aethon, it begins to chattter and chirp at the bird which seems to completely ignore him Focused again.
Kappa is using Growl but it misses JackIan looks stunned "Did you just say you this was your first battle?" He took a step back, shaking his head "I can't have been beaten so quickly by someone who hasn't even fought anyone before. This can't be happening." He looks over at Bolt "You said you got it from Oak? That must be it. That Pichu must come from the best stock. I heard about a really strong Trainer who used a Pikachu who used to have dealings with the Professor. This must have come from that" He looks back at Jack "How much for it. I'll give you any number. I'll give you Blaze. If this Pichu can beat him, I need it more"

"No excuses?" Dave asks, slyly. "All right, then. I'll keep that in mind when you lose. It'll be a refreshing change, to be honest. Usually when I beat someone as incompetent as you, they blame it on something. An off day, the sun in their eyes, food poisoning, the stars are wrongly aligned... The list goes on." He shrugs, looking at his opponent, still with the lopsided smile. "Anyways, Hal. Electroweb again."Dave uses Expend Momentum (1 to refresh Electroweb). Hal uses Electroweb (17 vs Ac 2), for 27 Special Electric Damage, and -1 Speed (And, also now -1 Movement).
Momentum: 5 Acc bonus: +3 Evasion: 5/5/4

Luke cheers as the Spritzee falls, kneeling down next to Gawain to pet him. "Great job, buddy."
He looks up when the girl approaches, quickly rising to take her hand, a bit surprised at her... kindness. Not something he was really used to. Still, he smiles broadly. "Thanks, I'll try my best. You were pretty great yourself, too. That trick with those lights was pretty neat." He hesitates for a few moments, before adding, somewhat awkwardly: "I'm sure you didn't disappoint your parents..."

Jack looks visibly shocked by Ian's offer. "What?! You want me to sell Bolt?!," he asks in disbelief, looking at Bolt with a shocked expression. After a second, though, he recovered his composure.
Jack shook his head, smiling a little at Ian. "Sorry, but I would never dream of trading Bolt, much less sell him. His egg was a gift from the Professor, and he's my first pokemon...not to mention my best pal," he said. "And, yeah, Professor Oak gave me the egg, but...see...the thing is...," he started, trying to find a way to word it so that he wouldn't be too offensive to Ian. "...well...when I was little, I studied Bolt for about five years and, as far as Pichu go...he's completely normal," he said with a smile.
"Besides, it's not really up to me. It's Bolt's decision who he wants to be with," Jack said, taking another homemade wafer out and handing it to the Pichu who started chomping on it happily.
"So...thanks for the offer, I'm flattered, really...and Blaze looks like a great pokemon...but I couldn't dream of trading Bolt away, or selling him," he said with a smile.

Dave
As the second web struck, the Croagunk went down, Jeff sighing as it hit the ground.
He turned to the crowd, raising his arms "Let's give it up for Davey over there, the first person to ever beat me, and well on his way to winning this whole thing!" The audience began to cheer especially loud as the announcer began to speak "Well, like he said, the winner of this match is David Dyson, it seems his time in the Battle Tower has served him well"
Jeff returned Crash, before walking over and putting a hand on Daves shoulder, the two nearly even in height and towering over most everyone else around "You may have won this round, but the next time I see you, I will be winning." Turning around and heading away, he looked back "I bet the rest of the winners are gonna be a cinch for you, since you beat me"
Luke
Catelynn blushed a little "I shouldn't have mentioned that, it was a little graceless of me. They just spent a lot of money to get me and Rose here. But I still have a chance to explore a whole new region"
She shook her head a little bit "But still. You need to go out and win your next fight! I can't be known for having lost to someone who couldn't even win two fights in a row" She pointed up to the cameras flying around the area "Because people all over the world are watching this!"
"Well, hopefully it wasn't just luck. If so I'll feel dumb for cheering you on"
Jack
Ian grits his teeth "Yeah sure, normal. Whatever. Don't spill your secrets to the loser, I get it"
Bolt continues to munch on the wafer, eventually finishing it up and climbing onto Jacks shoulder
"Blaze was great" Ian sneered "But you tarnished his record. I'll get you back for that. Mark my words"
As he walked away, a few people from the crowd headed towards Jack to congratulate him on his victory

Luke smiles at the girl, though he stiffens a bit when she mentions the whole world is watching them. "Thanks for reminding me of that... Wasn't nervous to begin with..." he mutters, only barely resisting the urge to flip up the hood of his hoodie to hide his face.
He quickly brightens again though. "But yeah, exploring the region should be pretty awesome! And I promise Gawain and I will do our very best to win this whole thing. Can't promise we will of course, but we'll definetely try."

"Well, Jeffers," Dave says, nodding, "I look forwards to seeing you try. It means you did learn something from this. And, I can say one thing. You take defeat like those who've been in the Tower for a while... where it becomes something to learn from. So, mark my words. You'd better come up with something good, or I'm going to be disappointed." He gives a little salute to the boy walking away. Well, hopefully this is a good sign. Both of Trainers around here and of the tournament itself. None of those wimps who just meet a loss with mere acceptance or sorrow. This one has the drive, at least.

"But I'm not...I don't have any...Blaze is gr...," Jack said, trying to get a word in but eventually giving up with a heavy sigh as Ian walked off. "Oh boy...well, I guess we'll be seeing him again," Jack said to Bolt with a grin.
As he turned to leave the stadium, though, Jack ran into the people from the crowd. "Oh, thank you! And thanks for cheering me on, me and Bolt really appreciate all of your support! We can't do it without ya!," he said with an awkward smile.

Jack
The various people in the crowd continue to congratulate Jack, until one speaks up above the rest "Oh, I know Bolt didn't get hurt, but if you head over towards the Pokecenter, you might be able to meet some of your competition, especially since you still have some time before the next match" The rest of the people chatter in agreement before diffusing back into the crowd
Luke
Catelynn leaned down and looked at Gawain "Speaking of Gawain, looks like he got a little hurt in the fight with Rose, I'm heading over to the Pokecenter in order to get her healed up, you want to come with me? I don't think the next fight starts for a little bit, and it's always good to be at your best for them"
Dave
One of the officials walked up to Dave "Congratulations Mr. Dyson. That was a hard fought victory. I would just like to inform you that you have about an hour before the next match, if you wanted to get your Pokemon healed up and maybe pick up some refreshments. The Pokecenter is just a few minutes walk from here after all

"Hard-fought"? Really? Once I got a handle on the guy, there was no doubt which way it was going to swing... Dave doesn't say any of this though, and just nods, curtly thanking the official. Clearly they'd never seen any truly hard fought battles, where it all came down to the wire. This one wasn't that close... but at least my opponent had potential.
He does head over towards the Pokécenter, though. No sense in going into a fight with a disadvantage, if you could at all help it. Challenging yourself is one thing, but deliberately sabotaging your own chances? That's whole separate kettle of Magikarp.

Luke looks Gawain over real quick at Catelynn's statement/question, and nods. "Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. Don't want Gawain to get hurt too badly today, and the damage can get pretty bad pretty fast if I'm not careful..."
He walks alongside the girl, trying to think of something, anything to say. "So... Hoenn? How's it like there? I've never really been outside the area around Accumula..."

Jack was trying to be as gracious as he could, thanking everyone for their support, shaking hands and fist bumping everyone who came up, but he was relieved when the crowd dispersed. He gave a light sigh and hunched over a little bit, looking at Bolt with a smile.
"Who knew winning would be so exhausting?," he asked the Pichu with a good natured chuckle. "Heh. Well, maybe we should head to the Pokemon Center. We could see how some of the others did, and get something to drink. I dunno about you, but I'm parched," he added, heading toward the Center with Bolt perched comfortably on his shoulder.
