Caitlin: "You have no right to be upset."
Jacob: "So cheap."
Caitlin: "It's a legitamate strategy."
Jacob: "Nrg... Regina! Return!"
Jacob: "Voidstar! Double Team and Shadow Claw!"
Voidstar: -Creates numerous illusion clones of himself and gathers some ghostly Obscura on his hand-
Caitlin: "Encore, Alakazam!"
Alakazam: -Begins encoring the Double Team-
Jacob: "OH COME ON!"
"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."

Garuda: <Previous experience with Double Team determines that this strategy shall backfire.>
Rill: <Why do you...? Oh, no, wait, I see what you mean.>

-Herbert chuckles at the Alakazam, then turns to Sakura and Duke.-
Herbert: Arceus, I hope I don't have to face that thing. Afternoon, you two.

"Not forgetting exactly, we were just testing if we would be able to teleport there, we didn't know if you were already awake or not, so we did the test without you. Anyway, everybody is on the League now, you coming?" asked Lyuri, with a small smile.

"Encore is such a fun thing to use~" said Sakura, giggling, then turning to Herbert "Hello Herbert, what did I miss while you were here?" she asked
"Hello." said Duke, not looking as upbeat as usual.

-Ren an co watch the Encore-Ren:Well that could backfire horribly on Caitlin in the long run.
Gamma:Unless Mind Reader is used.
Ren:Well yeah there's that, but Alakazams can't learn Mind Reader.

Meet The New Boss
Victory Road, last night
-Lina sends out Fuuma-
Fuuma: <What is it?>
Lina: Look, I know you kinda resent having a Trainer. I can tell. But I overheard Umbra giving your Garchomp buddy a chance and I decided to do the same.
Fuuma: -surprised- <Oh?>
Lina: Just tell me what you want me to do to be a better Trainer.
Fuuma: <Well... I would like to see Spectrum more...>
Lina: -smirks- You have a crush, I see.
Fuuma: <What?! No! She's my daughter!>
Lina: Oh! Why didn't you say so? I can get that arranged!
-The two head back to the Leauge-
Unova Leauge, now
-Everyone - including Human!Latios and Human!Ilya - is here watching Jacob's challenge.-

Herbert: Fun when you're using it, maybe. Not so much for your opponent. As for what's going on... well, not much, really. Crow beat the League, Gogie and Dihrao had an Egg - or didn't, I'm still not exactly clear on that point - and Kirk had a brief bout of stage fright. Jacob's just doing his challenge now, as you can see.
-He raises an eyebrow at Duke.-
Herbert: Is something the matter? It's been a while since our last lesson, but I can still tell that something's wrong.

Rawst:Of course. I just need to get Blythe and Beacon.
-One trip to his room later, he has them-
Rawst:Okay, ready.
-Rogue is out of the building, possibly training/looking for eggs-
-meanwhile, in Humilau-
-the Wailord takes minute damage-
OH DEAR. WHAT A TERRIFYING RANT. EEK.
-his Special Attack falls-
Body Slam!
Wailord: I SHALL FLATTEN YOU NOW.

"Oh, I should congratulate Crow later then, thanks." said Sakura, with a smile
"It's... Nothing of concern." said Duke, with a sigh.
"You know, saying that never works." said Grant.
Lyuri and Rawst then teleport in another corner of the building.

Jacob: -Narrows eyes- "Voidstar! Shadow Claw!"
Voidstar: -Feeling quite proud of his ability to Double Team, attempts to awe the watches by using it again-
Caitlin: "Heehee. Looks like you're easily frustrated. Anyone ever tell you that? Alakazam, Calm Mind and Focus Blast!"
Alakazam: -Fires a focus blast after drawing in energy and focusing itself-
-It strikes a Voidstar clone-
Jacob: -Smirks- "Maybe. Voidstar, again!"
Caitlin: "Oh my, maybe that wasn't the best idea..."
Jacob: "Maybe?"
Voidstar: -Shakes head- <Why was I just wasting my time like that?>

-Ajax finishes his sandwich and tries to throw the wrapper into a nearby trash bin. He falls short several feet.-
Ajax: <Oh, curse these underdeveloped arms of mine...>
-As he walks over to throw his wrapper away the old fashioned way, he notices a familiar face.-
Ajax: <Oh! That's him!>
-Ajax runs over to get Dune.-

-Herbert gives Grant a curious look, before turning back to Duke.-
Herbert: Actually, I'm not going to pry. I'm not the kind of person who sees the need to solve everyone else's problems. If you honestly believe that it's nothing of concern - and your Aura suggests you don't, by the way - then I'll let you deal with it. Unless you want help?
-He waves idly to Lyuri and Rawst, then turns back to the monitor.-
Herbert: And now we see the inherent problem in forcing your opponent to max out his evasiveness.

You're shivering. Are you afraid?
Humilau Gym
Felis: <Dear Arceus, my poor ears.>
-Felis attempts to leap out of the way, but lets out a yelp as his tail gets caught by the Wailord's Body Slam-
Now hit with a Night Slash!
Felis: <Oh, you do not get to touch my tail and live.>
-Felis swipes at the Wailord with both claws-
And unfortunately, I have to leave for now.
Do not fear power... fear those who wield it.
-is watching intently, occasionally taking notes-
-in Humilau, it crits, and the Wailord is taken down-
Whoa, dudette! You deserve these!
-hands out the badge and TM-

Caitlin: "Huh. Well we can't miss forever! Calm Mind and Focus Blast!
Alakazam: -With an annoyed look at the hundreds of Sneasels running around the room-
Jacob: "Double Team and Shadow Claw!"
Caitlin: "Oh now you're just using Double Team to annoy me."
Jacob: "Indeed I am. It's a legitamate strategy."
Voidstar: -Creates more clones of himself and several of them mimic using Shadow Claw, but the real one jumps away after hitting it-
Alakazam: -Is hit and tries responding quickly with another Calm Mind/Focus Blast combo, it once again misses-
Jacob: "Alright, enough stalling. Hone Claws! Shadow Claw!"
Voidstar: -His claws and focus are sharpened and he rushes at the Alakazam and slashes at it-
Jacob: -Smirks-

"Heh, at least I can see that my Aura training is working well. In any case, that's all right." said Duke, with a very faint smile
"Duke broke a certain girl's heart, wasn't mine thought." said Lyuri, as she approached with a dismissive gesture "Some girl named Rillianne that had a crush on him, he's been feeling bad for it ever since it."
Duke didn't respond to Lyuri announcing what happened, it's not like it was a secret, just something that he didn't want to ruin others's day with, instead, he just looked back at the screen
"Jacob sure knows how to make the best of the worst situations." said Sakura, trying to avoid the topic.

Herbert: ...Oh.
-Unsure of what to say, Herbert turns back to the screen as well.-
Herbert: To be fair, it wasn't a bad situation in the first place. Jacob was dealt a good hand there, he just couldn't play it properly until now.

Caitlin: "Ohh, that's it! I'll go all out of it if I have to win! Metagross!"
-Sends out the Metagross with a 'Love Seat 4 Life' pin thing, this pin turns out actually to be a Life Orb with a piece of paper taped over it-
"Hammer Arm!"
Metagross: -Charges, plowing through ALL the Voidstar illusions. All of them. When it finally impacts the real Voidstar, he's instantly taken out-
Jacob: -Recalls Voidstar- "Nrgh... What's with those things?! Those stupid buttons or whatever!"
Caitlin: -Shrugs- "I saw it at a convention and I thought it was kind of cute. My Metagross seems to like it. Anyways was that your-"
Jacob: "ARGENTUM!" -Sends out Argentum-
"ROCK POLISH. EARTHQUAKE."
Argentum: <Someone sounds mad.> -Glows and becomes all shiny and new, before jumping into the air-
<Artificial Tectonic Tension Release. Earthquake. METAGROSS TROLLING IS WIN!>
Caitlin: "Ooh I think I like that combination. Metagross, do the same!"
Jacob: Even if they're evenly matched in power... with that Life Orb, Argentum won't be able to come out on top... Unless....
