After a long day in Hearthome, Dallas was heading towards the gate to catch a ride down Route 209 to head back to Solaceon Town. With his shopping bags in hand and his egg in his backpack, everything seemed to be going according to plan. He made it to a bench on the inside of the gate, setting down his items before taking out his phone to call for a ride. Just as he was dialing a number, he heard a nasally laugh from the distance. "NYHEH HEH HEH, Those puny trainers didn't know what hit 'em!"
"Yeah, thats for sure! I swear, we're too strong for our own good, NO ONE CAN STOP US!"
"THATS RIGHT NYEH HEHheH"
As Dallas watched the group of obnoxious trainers get closer, one of them stopped and stared a bit. "H-hey guys, is that--? No way, it is! Dallas Diamond!" The other 2 looked surprised as they looked to Dallas who was looking back at them. Dallas' eyes shifted, looking around and then back to them. "Uhh... H-" "DALLAS DIAMOND... The Number One battler in Azure. Tch! I counted the DAYS when I'd see you again to get my revenge." the trainer clenched his fist. Dallas began to sweat, his eyes shifting again. "Uh?" "SO, You don't remember me do ya? Hmph. We battled once and you HUMILIATED ME and kicked me out of your STUPID little club. WELL DALLAS DIAMOND, I CHALLENGE YOU TO A BATTLE RIGHT HERE AND RIGHT NOW AND I WONT TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER." The trainer yelled, pointing a Net Ball at Dallas. Dallas blinked, and closed his flip phone. "Alright. I've been itching for a battle for a while now anyways!" Dallas got up, reaching in his pockets for a Poke Ball. "Tch, you cocky bastard, think you can just show me up again huh? Well not this time. You're going down!" The trainer said, tossing the Net Ball out in the open. A blue light spiraled out, forming into a Scizor. "Lookin' forward to it!" Dallas got excited, for someone to be so bold and have a backbone. To just challenge him out of no where, it was exciting. Dallas took out a Premier Ball. He tossed it outwards, the same effects happening, allowing for Gallade to appear. "NO PUSSYFOOTING AROUND, LETS GET RIGHT INTO IT! SCIZOR, IRON HEAD!" Scizor cried out, its head hardening as it dashed towards Gallade. Dallas didn't give it a command yet, it just watched. He learned this tactic from watching Cynthia. Scizor rammed into Gallade who tried to block it with its blade hands, being forcibly knocked back. "Whew! You okay bud?" Dallas patted Gallade on the shoulder. Gallade scoffed, rolling its shoulder as to say "don't touch me". Still looked like Gallade wasn't a big fan of Dallas. "NYEH, Y'like that? We got more on the way!" Dallas smirked. "Scizor! Iron Head again!!" Scizor screeched, it's head hardening once more as it rushed towards Gallade. "They're not the only ones with a hard head, Gallade, Zen Headbutt!" Dallas knew it wouldn't be very effective, but it also wouldn't test Gallade's limits if they hadn't use a not very effective move. Gallade's head began glowing, radiating a weird energy. It launched itself towards Scizor as well, the two colliding head to head, literally. Gallade tumbled back, holding its head while Scizor only flinched a little. Dallas began chuckling. "Wh- WHATS SO FUNNY? YOU ENJOY LOSING??"
"Looks like he's finally lost it haha" Dallas walked up to Gallade, rubbing it on the head. "I'm sorry babe, I've just been toying with you, is all." The trainer curled his lip up. "YOU WHA-" "Gallade, Close Combat." Gallade threw Dallas' hand off his head as it rushed off to Scizor, a red aura glowing around it. "Ngh! SCIZOR BULLET PUNCH NOW!!" he yelled out. Scizor's claws began to glow and its speed picked up. As the 2 Pokemon met, their attacks began clashing like swords on the battle field. Scizor was throwing punch after punch, which were countered by Gallade's arms and legs. The 2 Pokemon began speeding up their attacks even more. Gallade and Scizor were continuously throwing hit after hit, their movements were almost blurred. You could see the two of them dodging any facial strikes, as their heads moved from side to side avoiding the hits. This went on for a little longer than it should have. "Gallade, wrap this up, I need to get home." Gallade kicked back, giving itself some distance from Scizor, and gave itself a quick second to scoff at Dallas' remark. It then dashed back towards Scizor, throwing its leg to Scizor's face, sending it in the air. Gallade flipped back, letting out a cry. It began doing some arm movements. Movements that Dallas had never seen it do before. Dallas raised an eyebrow, then widened his eyes when he saw Gallade's arms glowing pink. Gallade did a quick spin, launching a blade shaped energy at Scizor, which impacted it as it was still in the air. Gallade had learned Psycho Cut! Dallas covered his mouth and gasped. "MY BABY!!" As he said this, Scizor fell back to the ground, knocked out. "WHAT??? HOW DOES THAT EVEN WORK?? GAH" he returned Scizor into the ball with a frustrating grunt. "THIS ISNT OVER YET, IM USING ONE MORE POKEMON." Dallas rolled his eyes. "Okay well hurry up." "This guy's too cocky for his own good, you want me to handle this?" "NO. He's mine. Stay out of this." He tossed out a regular Poke Ball, revealing an Alolan Sandslash. "HMPH. You think you can just walk around with that smug ass look on your face? Who do you think you are. You're no better than any one else in this world. YOU do not get to exclude ME from ANYTHING!! I will make you PAY for the embarrassment you caused me! And even then it wont be ENOUGH. I will battle you DAY AFTER DAY and CONTINUOUSLY beat you down until you CRAWL ON YOUR KNEES AND BEG FOR ME TO STOP. AND EVEN THEN, IT WILL ONLY BE THE BEGINNING FOR THE LONG HELL YOU HAVE COMING FOR Y--" "Close Combat." Gallade rushed out to the field, a red aura surrounding it. It punched Sandslash square in the face, knocking it into a wall. This hit appeared to be a critical hit, knocking it out immediately. The steel type trainer was speechless. He froze with his finger pointed out at Dallas who simply returned Gallade to it's ball. Dallas walked over to pick up his bags and as soon as he did, a black car pulled up. Apparently he had already called the uber before the battle began. "Well! That was fun. I'm open to battle you again some day, but I've gotta get home or my mom will yell at me. Bye!" With the door closing and the car driving away, the 3 trainers looked dumbfounded. "....It was a pretty good battle tho-" "Shut.......... the fuck up."
On the way home, Dallas noticed something shiny on the floor in the backseat of the car. "Mm?" Upon further inspection, it looks like he had found a Rare Candy! Dallas had a wide smile and tucked it in his pocket. He didn't want to alarm the driver or anything.
Moral of the story, there's only room for 1 cocky obnoxious bastard.
