Brandon laid in the open field, watching the clouds go by with his newest Pokemon, Mindstrike the Ralts. Suddenly he heard movement, and looked up to see Ryan arriving at the field. Standing up, he saw Tortferngatr arriving as well. "Well little buddy, you're going to get a chance to see how it's done by two experts!" Ralts cooed appreciatively, and Brandon quickly double checked the rules.

"Weird, for some reason Ryan only brought two Pokemon," Brandon thought to himself as the two battlers finished their preparations. "Then again, I suppose he only needs one." Seeing that the trainers were ready to go, he addressed them. "Alright, surely you two know how this works, so Ryan, send out your Pokemon and let's get started!"

He also looked around the field, but there was nothing but grass as far as the eye could see. Seeing that the trainers weren't quite ready yet, he checked their teams to see what they were using.
