ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Lake: <Hey, guys?>

-All of my other Pokémon (Apart from Phantom) stop what they're doing, turning their attention to Lake.-

Pepper: <What is it, Lake?>

Lake: <I just want to talk to you guys about something. You see...I don't think I've really been spending enough time with you.>

Crowley: <Hmm...Ya' right about 'dat.>

Celestia: <You do spend a lot of time with other people. Like Luke.>

Woolly: <And Nadia!>

Lake: <Yeah. I was kind of feeling bad about that, so...I'm going to try and spend some more time with you guys from now on. Is that okay with you?>

Unite: -Shrugs- <I guess...>

Woolly: <Unite! That's fine with me Lake, I'd love to spend more time with you!>

Pepper: <We have sort of grown apart recently, but I'd love to make up for that, Lake!>

Wulfric: <Yeah...Same here.>

Phantom: <...Whatever. I still think you're a wimp.>

-Flare glares at Phantom, then punches her, knocking the Zoroark over.-

Phantom: <...Ow.>

Flare: <Jerk. Don't listen to her Lake. You're an awesome Feraligatr.>

Lake: <Aww...Thanks, Flare.>

- Crush fails to protect himself from the attack, and due to his still low health, the attack knocks him out, finally ending the battle -

...

- Just stands there in stunned silence for a moment, blinking a few times -

... I... I lost?

- Stays like that for a few more seconds, before walking over to Crush -

... You did well. I'm very proud of you.

- Recalls Crush, before walking over to Slouch -

Well, Slouch... It looks you'll be moving on to the next round, then. Congratulations.

- Smiles, and holds out my hand for a handshake -

That was a really great battle.

-Hears groans and sighs of disappointment from the stands, along with a couple of cheers-

Riptide: -Punches the air- WHOOO!

-Shakes DS's hand-
Uh... -Tries to think of something to say that doesn't make him sound like a complete idiot, fails-
Th-thanks a lot, DS. Uhh, y-you did really well and... Geez..
<Thinking> I actually won I actually won holy crap this is insane I feel like my head is going to explode this shit is bananas
As soon as DS leaves...

Riptide: -Pulls Slouch into a side hug- Told you we could do it!

Oof!
-Muffled- Thanksh, Rip.

Even slouches need sleep.

- Leaves the stadium to go heal my Pokémon -

(thinking) So... I'm out of the tournament... Well, it's okay. I did my best, and that's all that matters. At least I can still cheer for my friends who are still in the tournament.

Musashi: <Hmm, so DS lost.>

Yeah. I'm happy that Slouch is getting some recognition (Arceus knows he's way more powerful and skilled than he gives himself credit for, I have the notes to prove it.), but at the same time I was hoping on finally getting that rematch with her.

Roc: -Shrugs- <Eh, what can you do?>

Yeah, we'll get it some other time.

-Stomach growls-

Now let's go plan for Round 6 over breakfast.

-Leaves the stadium-

Oh, DS lost.

Naida: But it's nice to see Slouch getting some recognition. Remember how some of the fans didn't know who he was?

-I walk around, looking for someone to talk to-

For the Au arc, should Lewis and Simon be in charge of building the stroghold of La Résistance? Meme will work in phycological warfare, to iterrogte cPtured PO Ws, but what roles will Hatbox and Elza serve In the Au?

I wake up, take a look at the watch... quite late already, @660 or something...

Maekrite points his ear at me and listens then keeps looking thru the window. I go take a shower. A bit disappointed that I don't have the whiskers anymore, because they feel funny to brush.

As I dress up, Pokégear beeps. It's a message indicating that two PEFE laptops will be at the hotel service area by lunch time.

Maekrite comes in.

Maekrite — <Morning...> — yawns.

— Morning.

Maekrite — <So... nom and walk?>

— Yeah... you'll go ahead and nom first while I go send a message, then we'll go for a walk.

Maekrite stares at me in silence.

...

...

— Well, OK... Noms and walk first, then I'll send Luke that message... his laptop should be here soon.

Maekrite — <Yay!>

We walk out.

- After healing my Pokémon at the Pokémon center, I return to the tournament building, letting out my Pokémon outside to inform them of the outcome of the battle -

HotStuff: <What!? How could we lose? We were doing so well!>

Relax, HotStuff. So we didn't win. We can't win every battle, you know.

Crush: (resting his head in my lap, makes a whimpering noise) <I'm sorry I failed you, DS...>

- Pets Crush on the head -

It's okay, Crush. You did really well out there. I'm very proud of you.

Briar Rose: <Yeah, Crush! Cheer up! You were really great!>

Crush: <...>

Velvet: <... So, what do we do now?>

-I decide to go to the hotel to try and find Luke-

It's interesting... I am paying a lot more attention to your flight technique now, Basket...

Basket: <Aw, that's good, right? Do you think you'll ever get another try?>

Well... probably not anytime soon. But I get the feeling I'll still run into these guys on occasion, even after this GC thing is over. Who knows what could happen then?

Basket: <Hmm.>

<...well, we'll see. The GC isn't over quite yet, after all.>

Yeah... so, Silent and Maekrite. They seem to be patching things up?

Oh, look, people down there! Who we know, I mean.

-Basket swoops down to the hotel-

While that is a good idea, Gamer, we've already established that The Resistance's base will be the Battle Subway.

-I'm sitting near my Pokémon, paying attention as they talk to Lake.-

Lake: <By the way guys...Why didn't any of you wake me up in the Dream World?>

-Everyone suddenly looks very awkward.-

Woolly: <Um...>

Flare: <...Er.>

Crowley: <Oh, boy...>

Stratus: <I hadn't been there for very long. I didn't know.>

Pepper: <I was going to get to you Lake, honestly, but Ho-oh got to you first.>

Wulfric: <I would have done it, but I didn't know...>

Lake: <...Whatever, it doesn't really matter.>

-Everyone exchanges relived glances.-

Luke, where are you in the hotel?

It's just that your interpretation of hose characters are hilarious, and I would like to see more of the duo. Maybe they could be the ones who renovate DS's villa to house all of us, and install the badfics theater? Also, I'd like to see how the two react to battles.

Where everyone else is, I guess.

- Walking back to the hotel, unsure what to do -

(thinking) I guess I should go find the others... Now, where could they be?

- Overhears some people talking, and hides behind a wall, listening to their conversation -

Random Fan 1: I can't believe DS lost! The DS!

Random Fan 2: I know! I thought she was like, the best trainer in Sinnoh or something!

Random Fan 3: (shrugs) It doesn't matter how powerful she is, what matters is that she lost, which means that I won the bet, which means that you two owe me 1000 pokedollars each!

- I decide to continue walking, trying to find the others -

-I eventually manage to stumble across where everyone that's in the hotel is- Hey, everyone.

Oh, hey Librarian! I haven't seen you in a long time! I thought you'd left or something.

-All of my Pokémon (Well, most of them) start paying attention to our conversation.-

Sorry...I sort of wandered off during the tournament. Training a few of the others. -I nod to Luke's other Pokemon- Bet you've all gotten stronger.

-Has finished eating breakfast and is now wandering around aimlessly-

Lake: <I have.>

Woolly: <Me too!>

Unite: <And me!>

Flare: <Yeah! We've all gotten a bit stronger! Well...The ones that have actually battled, that is.>

Jello: <Hey! I would battle! It's just, well...>

Phantom: <You're a wimp?>

-Pepper whacks Phantom with her vines.-

Phantom: <WHY DOES EVERYMON KEEP HITTING ME?!>

Unite: <Because you're a jerk?>

Jello: <Thanks Pepper.>

Pepper: <No problem, sweetie.>

Go for a stroll around with Maekrite...

- Continues wandering around, eventually coming across Tagg -

Oh, hi there.

-Haunter floats over to Lake and hugs him-

So, how've you been in the tournament? Or were you eliminated?
