Pokémon battle! And we'll see who is the better trainer! And we'll see who has the bigger Pokéballs!

[mischiefbreeder]

Who: Gold (mischiefbreeder) and Silver (tsuntrader), plus any spectators!
What: Silver issued a battle challenge to Gold, who accepted.
When: Saturday afternoon
Where: The Battle Dome
Summary: Gold and Silver have been in Luceti together for a year and yet have never had a single Pokémon battle. Deciding it's time to rectify, they head off to the Battle Dome to throw down!
Rating: PG? I mean, it's Pokémon...
[Gold had been anxiously waiting for this day. Sure, the standard format for Pokémon battles involved just battling whenever your eyes meet, but if they did that, there'd be constant battles all day, every day. Therefore, these things had to be planned.

...Besides that, Silver was his rival. Always has been, always will be. That makes this battle special. A battle to settle old scores... No, a battle to determine who's the best trainer out of the two of them, and furthermore... To show everyone just how it's done.

It was time. Their battle lies ahead.]

[ Dawn is disappointed herself when it ends in a tie, though she isn't flailing about like Rin. her mind is occupied with a quick review of the battle, memorizing their styles, and unfortunately that means she's not paying any attention to what's happening around her, and when he trips back into her, well...

all five feet of her stumble a few steps before she falls down on her butt with a squeak and a startled look on her face. ]

Oof!

[At least he didn't land on top of her, that would be straight RomCom. Instead, he just lands a bit off to herleft, faceplanting on them eta floor and thus probably in view to see certain things if he was like that. He is not though, and thus groans, holding his head because wow that smarted]

Sorry, sorry- I hit something?

[barrette]

You hit me.

[ she sits upright and straightens her dress so it isn't crumpled up. ]

You didn't hit your head too hard, did you?

[rashness]

I-- [CRAP. He bows himself despite being on his butt here]

Sorry!

[barrette]

It's okay!

[ nooooo Rin, don't bow! ]

Are you hurt at all?

[rashness]

Oh, yeah, 'course. [BUT ARE YOU] Are you?

[barrette]

Mm-hmm, I'm fine!

[ she rocks onto her knees and reaches over to pat him on the shoulder. ]

[rashness]

[...Cute. Err. Well then. Nod] Y-yeah. My bad, good- glad you're okay, I mean!

[barrette]

I'm glad you're okay too!

My name is Dawn. What's yours?

[rashness]

Rin. I'm Rin.

[ ? ]

Is something wrong?

[rashness]

You're dressed like you're new.

[But if so, why would you be here? He flicks his tail a bit and then gets to his feet, offering her a hand as well]
