[ anyway i don’t talk about sapphire enough so.
you’re challenged by trainer sapphire to a training battle ]
[ + champion team w/ possible megas + legendaries she has at her disposal ]
"Yep, those."
A chuckle, and she fixes a bit more the weight onto her shoulders, keeping a smile.
"Nothing wrong with liking them, y'know? A good friend of mine is reeeeeally into them too."
"I did. My big boy, behind me, actually won pretty much all the medals in the Toughness ranks back then, but we kinda realized we weren't into that stuff at all. Battling is funnier... even if the faces of the jury when someone decides to explode is always fun."
"Paperwork sucks, pretty much. I know that much." He had to deal with plenty of it as a Kahuna. It was just so mind numbingly boring...
"Into that stuff? Contests you mean?" Busted... "Well, I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to participate in one just once... It looks so cool and fancy. Have you ever done them?"
sapphire if youre water-coded why did you choose the fire type starter
"birb"
--there we go.
"The same guy I defeated a handful of times already?"
Maybe a little bit of an exaggeration, but so far she was having way more luck in battle than him. Jorge was quick to jump on the side, hopping around the room and, most importantly, around both the Muk and its Trainer, almost trying to either distract them both or even make the Pokèmon hit Archie himself.
A trickster at heart, not unlike the little girl who just waltzed in an ecoterrorist group's base and started wrecking everything in her way.
"Psych up!", she chirps, the Sylveon stopping to charge up before restarting to hop around.
"Bwahaha!!"
More laughter echoes through the room as Archie plucks a Pokéball from the belt clip. He tosses it into the air, and out comes his Muk. An unpleasant aroma fills the air as the Pokémon cries out angrily.
"Wouldn't dare dissapoint now, would I? Who d'ya take me fer?"
A wave of his hand, and the Poison-type starts preparing a Sludge Wave to toss at the opposing Sylveon.
"Surprised?"
She's chill, sure, but still beaming with pride. Everyone always talks about the children who faced the bad guys who wanted to take over and/or destroy the world, everyone forgets to ask them how they feel about it.
Good. After all those years, after Archie outed himself as a pretty cool guy, Sapphire still felt good.
"Ssssso you're saying I did you a favor back then?" she giggles, her legs wriggling back and forth over the chair she slouched on "You're welcome, my duuuude!"
@whereskymeetsea approached: " i was pretty mean back then, wasn't i? " <- said with a chill yet slightly smug grin. yea. mean. she kicked his ass severely
"...Yeah, actually. Ya were." He hasn't forgotten the massive ass-kicking, no. "Ya still smug 'bout it, hmm? Well, no matter. I needed it a' the moment."
"Yeppers"
It's barely rudeness or disrespect.
She genuinely keeps forgetting.
"How are you holding up? Everyone doing their job at the League?"
No comment on the fact that she's blatantly ignoring her duties.
"... No matter how many times I ask you to not call me that, you're never going to stop, are you?"
@picavecalyx:
Sapphire!! How do you feel about Devon corp? [ ACCEPTING ]
“…ah. I forgot I was suppoesd to be there for a sponsor last week, woops.
Eeeh. They pay good for the TV spots, and it’s fun to chat with The Stoners:tm: every now nad then.”
The Stoners are literally Champion Steven and his dad CEO Mr.Stone.
