24th - video/action for Olivine;

[islandshore]

[When the feed starts up, it's upside-down, but there's a clear shot of a very angry Riku standing next to a large pile of exhausted Pokémon including a very large Charizard, Feraligatr, Nidoking, Scizor, Lucario, and a Rotom, which manages to float over to the Gear and slowly lift it up.

Riku, however, looks less than impressed.]

Get back up! You can't just sit there.

[The Pokémon groan and shift a little, but alas, they're just too exhausted to keep going.]

C'mon. You're going to keep fighting, you got that? I don't care how tired you are.

[There's a sad sounding vrrrrrm from Surge, who hovers over to Riku.]

See? If Surge can do it, so can--

[Aaaand then the Gear falls. Looks like even Surge didn't have the energy to keep going.]

Can't believe this...

[After a moment, he scoops up the Gear and shuts it off. Those in Olivine are free to see this unpleasant display. A little while after his defeat, Riku's going to be working his team incredibly hard, putting them up against each other.

Someone's a sore loser, to say the least.]

I just need to push them harder...

[Still in denial about his loss, clearly.]

For what? So you can prove something?

To prove I'm the best trainer in Johto.

[There's a pause and a sigh]

How are you going to be the best if your team can't fight?

[islandshore.livejournal.com]

They need to step it up. Even if they take some heavy hits, I expect them to keep going until they come out on top.

Right now you need to heal them.

Fine. I'll take them to the center, but then it's back to training; they've got a lot of ground to cover.

If you say so.
