18 - video/action for Olivine;

[The first part of the broadcast begins with a shot insdie the Olivine City gym, courtesy of Riku's Scizor! Yep, it's that time again. Riku's even got his Charizard out, ready to toast Jasmine's Skarmory in a single hit.

Just like with Bugsy, Flare takes out his opponent before it has a chance to fight back. However, when Jasmine sends out her Magneton, Flare steps back. That's right, folks. Riku's sending another Pokémon into the fray-- this time his Garchomp.

The battle between Quake and Magneton lasts a little longer, due to the two being closer to the same level. However, with the resistance to electricity and the type advantage, Quake's use of Dig and Sand Tomb finishes the oversized magnet before long.

Finally, it's a showdown between Ace the Lucario and Jasmine's Steelix. Once again, there's a type advantage, and Ace manages to finish the job with a single Close Combat. After some high-pitched shrieking from Blade the Scizor, the feed ends!]


[Sometime after the battle, Riku can be seen by the beach of Olivine city, surrounded with... a lot of powerful Pokémon. Flare, Quake, Ace, and Blade are all there, along with Gaia the Tyranitar and Slash, who is now a Weavile. After a nice closeup of the Weavile's face, Slash sets the Gear back down and scurries over to his trainer. He'll take it from here.]

You know, I'm running out of challenges here. Most of my team's above level 50, they're all evolved except Phantom, and that last battle was a cakewalk.

I need a serious battle, something that'll test my limits. Quick gym battles are nice and all, but I won't get any better by facing them.

[In other words, he wants some new rivals, not that he'll say it outright. But once he's made his statement, Riku closes the feed. For the next hour or so, he'll be hanging around the beach with his Pokémon. Feel free to spot him at any time!]

[ooc: Yes, the badge was mod approved.]

Hey, don't worry about it.

[Kairi, he could never be a big, mean trainer.]

I could just use my lower-leveled Pokémon, but it's not like we have to battle.

We need to find you a challenge, then!

My thoughts exactly.

[And a whole bunch of his Pokémon just shrieked, roared, and yowled... 'cept for Flare. He's just rolling his eyes.]

Do you mind waiting a little while longer, though? I want to help Minnie with the house.

Don't worry about it. I might run down to Cianwood for a gym battle, but otherwise I'm in no rush.

[Plus, he has his own battle music now. Aw yis.]

Cianwood? That's the other island, right?

That's right. Don't know what to expect over there besides the gym.

Well, I don't think it'll have a lighthouse. Hearing everyone talk about it, it's kind of like a landmark.

Yeah. But it's bound to have something that stands out. Almost all the towns do.

Only one way to find out.

[He smirks.]
