[It's been a rough few days for Riku. He made it through the ice cave quickly, thanks to Flare's fire power and Jaws' speed, but he's still exhausted. Traveling alone just isn't the same as going with a group, especially when you're stuck in a chilly cavern.
But sometime during the late morning hours, he'll finally make it to his destination, and as the feed starts up (courtesy of Blade), there's a nice shot of the Blackthorn Gym as Riku takes on the final gym leader.]
( Gym Battle! )
[Shortly after obtaining his badge, Riku starts up another feed, grinning as he holds up all eight badges.]
Well, what do you know? The Blackthorn gym was almost a challenge. Gotta give her credit for trying. [He tucks away the badge case.] But she just doesn't have what it takes to beat me.
[He looks over at his big ol' Pokémon. Quake is still panting from the duel with Kingdra, and Flare's still a bit damp from the waterworks. The others are looking just fine, however; he's swapped out Jaws for his Pidgeot, and if one looks carefully, they might spot an Aerodactyl and Skarmory in the background.]
Anyway, I'm heading back now. Think I'll stop in Ecruteak City for the night. Let me know if you see this, Ven. If not, I'll catch you later.
[He puts the rest of his flying types into their Pokéballs and hops onto his Charizard's back. Then the feed ends.]
[He'll finally make it to Ecruteak very late at night, around the midnight hours. At that point he'll check into the Inn for the night. Feel free to bump into him in Blackthorn or Ecruteak and Mahogany during the brief stop he makes to grab some food. ]
[ooc: Quick travel through the ice path was mod approved-- he used his Charizard to melt the ice and rode on his Feraligatr. :|b Badge also approved.]
