Parker never really expected to get this far in his journey. He was totally fine with just his little shitty apartment in Jubilife selling drugs in the alleyways and avoiding the cops, with the occasional enforcer-type mission from Galactic on the side. He was making decent money doing all of this, and getting out his aggression plenty fine. However, his pokemon weren’t very happy with this stationary lifestyle. While they actually seemed to enjoy playing the part of guard dog and watch bird, they seemed to want more out of their life. Which left Parker doing the only thing he figured he could do, and traveling to Oreburgh to challenge the gym. He hid his nose in his hoodie as he approached, glancing through a group of trainers younger than him who were showing off their badges.
He could do that right?
Then again they seemed to seriously consider their lifestyle a good one.
Parker shook his head momentarily, Pudding at his heels as he walked into the gym and glanced around. Not sure what to do he stood by the sidelines, looking at the layout of the gym in all its glory. Which admittedly, just looked like a big fucking room. He caught eyes with who he assumed was the gym leader, and bit his lip. Walking forward he sighed, pulling down his hood and rubbing the back of his head as he glanced down at the hand offered to him.
“welcome! this is the oreburgh pokémon gym! i'm roark, the first gym leader in sinnoh! i'm but one trainer who decided to walk proudly with rock-type pokémon! as the gym leader, i need to see your potential as a trainer. and, i'll need to see the toughness of the pokémon that battle with you!"
Okay so that was a little bit weird, how friendly he seemed. He stuttered out his name and some lame greeting of his own,more than ready to get this done and over with. He glanced down at Pudding, who seemed excited and ready to go. He realized suddenly he had no type advantage, considering he had no water type pokemon. Eyes nearly rolling out of his head due to the pure stupidity oh himself he sighed and stepped back, hoping he could win this by a landslide.
The first pokemon was sent out, a Geodude, and Roark motioned for him to make the first move. Which was pretty nice of him considering everything. Parker took a deep breath and looked down at Pudding, who looked so soft and squishy in comparison.
“Alright Pudding, try Ice Fang.”
(Rolling 1-100 for Freeze and Flinch. 76 for freeze, no freeze. 6 for flinch, target flinched!)
The hit landed and despite Parker hoping the Geodude would freeze, it remained perfectly unfrozen. On the bright side the hit seemed to startle the other pokemon, and he flinched. Parker felt his heart beating in his chest and glanced down at Pudding, eyes wide.
“Thunder Fang! Hurry!”
(Rolling 1-100 for Paralyze and Flinch. 21 for Paralyze, no paralysis. 47 for flinch, no flinch.)
The hit landed again, and Pudding seemed to huff at the Geodude. Parker was slightly confused, but Pudding’s rage seemed to be building and he was acting a bit strangely. He almost missed the way the Geodude used Rock Throw and slammed into Pudding, Parker stumbling back. Without being prompted Pudding used another Ice Fang, and the Geodude fainted.
The next pokemon was a lot larger, and that kind of terrified Parker. Pudding seemed just as alarmed and the Onyx moved first, attacking with Rock Throw again and sending Pudding careening back. Suddenly a bright light enveloped Pudding, something strange seeming to happen. Both parties yelled out and covered their eyes, thoroughly blinded as something happened on the battlefield. Once the light cleared, Parker’s jaw dropped.
“Fucking christ.”
Pudding had evolved from snubbull, to a Granbull. The newly formed pokemon took time to shake himself out, and glanced back at Parker.
“Well hot damn! Look at that!”
Roark commented from the other side of the gym. Parker blinked with confusion, but nodded at the sure look on Pudding’s face. The new, slightly scarier, pokemon faced forward and roared suddenly, startling the Onyx. Pudding used a newly formed moved that coincided with his current rage, Outrage, which seemed to take both trainer and pokemon by surprise. The Onyx barely had time to react before Pudding started to get impatient, the rage overtaking his sense of dignity. The Onyx decided to use Screech, and while Parker clamped his hands over his ears it barely seemed to affect Pudding in his state. The fairy type flew forward in another Outrage attack, Onyx barely managing to take the hit before succumbing and finally fainting.
Parker took in a deep breath, two down and one to go. For safe measure he used a potion on Pudding as the last pokemon was brought out. Some weird dino looking thing that Parker didn’t really like at all if he was being honest. Pudding seemed hyped up and angry, which only got worse as the Cranidos Leered at him. Pudding used one final Outrage attack, which seemed to alarm the other pokemon as it yelped out.
(Rolling for confusion. 53. No confusion.)
Cranidos seemed to be taking a slow approach with Pudding, using Leer again to lower his defenses. Meanwhile Pudding was taking a very direct approach and used another Ice Fang, which froze the target. Parker released a grateful sigh, feeling himself starting to sweat at the thought of this going wrong. Pudding used another Ice Fang, latching onto the Cranidos and shaking his massive jaw, growling threateningly. Roark seemed slightly alarmed by this behavior but Parker felt a laugh bubble in his throat. The Cranidos flinched from alarm, yelping out once again and startling backward.
(Rolling 1-100 for Freeze and Flinch. 42 for freeze, no freeze. 3 for flinch, target flinched!)
With one final attack, Pudding used a Thunder Fang and the Cranidos fell to the ground, fainted. Parker held his breath as the gym leader scratched his head and sighed, bringing back his pokemon. Parker couldn’t believe it, he didn’t even have to sacrifice poor Egg! He released the breath when his lungs cried out for air and laughed slightly, reaching down to pet and scratch at Pudding who was...a lot taller now.
“Fucking christ we….we did it!!”
PUDDING WON!!!
