Round Eleven
Sick of cowering in fear of the pathetic pebbles tossed at it, Gardevoir takes its penultimate stand. Ducking and weaving through the shadows of the colossal monument in the cavern's centre, flashing over the serene springs, she dashes towards its foe, monkeying about with its trainer as per usual. She grasps her precious stone and lowers her head, glowing the same pink as the emanation from the centrepiece.
Hesitation. Is this really how she's going to win this? Almost all of her training has been warfare of the minds, between conjured balls and technical strategems. But now, to face its opponent in hand-to-hand combat? Why?
No. Now is not the time for hesitation.
One final stretch, and Ambipom's down. Very briefly.
She's kneeling, too tired to move any more, and that monkey's still not done yet. Still flinging its golden shards, still spewing up it guts at her. Gross. Eyelids heavy, her mind racing, but not done yet. It's her role to protect the gym, after all. She would have to find the energy. Maybe not enough for a win, but enough for one more dash.
