**The Walrein had no way to react or defend, and so it fainted, falling onto it's stomach with a loud crashing sound. Walrein is no longer able to battle!** "You did well Mithras... Let's do this, Khione, blanket him in ice!" **The young girl threw out her Froslass, the Pokemon gracefully spinning as it came out of its Pokeball.**
Verna
"Yay! Great job Leon!" This was the loudest she'd been ever sense they got here, Espeon and Mimikyu looked at Monika and gave cries of delight.
Raymond
"Froslass? What are you planning? If you're thinking of lowering Aegislash's attack or something, then we just have to put her out before she could do. Once again, Aegislash, Iron Head!" Still having its shield out in front of it, Aegislash speeds toward Froslass with no holds barred. It's slower than Froslass, however, which would give the ice/ghost-type Pokémon an opportunity to dodge or even hit back. Hearing the cheers from the sidelines, Leon wave toward the voices, his champion act instinctive.

"That's not going to work this time, Khione's faster." **As Noelle spoke, the Froslass seemed to dance and twirl to the left as it dodged the attack, dainty as always. Noelle grinned.** "Alright now, Destiny Bond." **She instructed the Pokemon, who bound the Aegislash in purple mist, binding their fates together. If Froslass Fainted, Aegislash would.**

When the purple mist wraps around Aegislash, it stays still, shock and afraid for a moment. It feels just as vulnerable as its opponent near it. "Hm. Impressive, but I can't let him go down like that. Aegislash, returns!" Leon withdraws his Pokémon and goes to grab another Pokéball on him. "Froslass is fast, I'll give you that. But I'll give you someone quicker. Inteleon, it's your turn!" He chucks another Pokéball out and a serene yet snarky, blue tall Pokémon appears. "Let's go, Dark Pulse!" A dark aura would appear around Inteleon before it winks and shoot the energy toward Froslass.

"Quick, Protect!" **The Froslass created a bubble around itself, deflecting the attack Inteleon attempted to carry out. Noelle also reached for another of her pokeballs.** "Khione, come back, you need that rest. You're next, Freya." **The Glaceon giddily hopped down from Noelle's shoulders, standing in front of her trainer ready to battle.**
Michael
*Cinderace started cheering when it saw the Glaceon enter the field. It had run out of debris for Pyro Balls so it's taken to using pebble in front of the bleachers.*
"Go Freya!" *Nichol cheered, her Flapple chirped happily as it perched itself on her shoulder.*
Verna
Monika cheered as loud as she could for Leon, she felt great just yelling and getting rid of all her stress to support Leon.
Raymond
**The stadium was close to the mansion, and Noelle could faintly hear cries of pain and fear from Pokemon. She couldn't focus on the battle anymore, constantly glancing back at the Mansion, hearing the faint cries over and over again. She muttered under her breath.** "Something's not right..."
Michael
*Nichol cocked her head to the side and called out to Noelle.*
"Is everything alright, dear? You seem... Distressed..."
Raymond
**Noelle tried to shake off the cries far away, shaking her head, her icy blue hair whipping side to side.** "I... I don't know... Something's wrong, I can hear it."

When battling, Leon would make sure that both Pokémon and trainer is engaged so that both could do their best. He notices Noelle being distracted, however, and try following her glances. He was partly leaning in since being so into battle mode, but the male stands up straight and raise a brow to Noelle. "If you hear something, don't you want to go check it out?" His expression is serious. A match could be done any day, but a cry for help needs to be investigated. "We can put the battle on hold here."
Verna
Monika jumped out of the bleachers and ran to Noelle. "What's wrong..?"
Michael
*Nichol stood up, returning her Pokemon.*
"If it's enough to put an end to such an incredible battle, it definitely deserves our attention. I'll heal your Pokémon for you both."
Raymond
"Please, can we finish this another day? I hear distress calls from Pokemon, though I don't know where they're coming from. They sound really hurt, this is bad." **She put her pokemon back into their pokeballs, Freya hopping onto Noelle's shoulders, a little scared, as she heard the cries too. Noelle calmed the cold pokemon down, now looking right at the mansion.** "There are Pokemon in trouble inside that mansion."
Verna
Her expression suddenly changed from worried to kind of angry and serious, it was rare to see Monika like this. Mimikyu and Espeon slowly walked up to her and nudged her legs, but she didn't react.
Raymond
Leon almost looks surprise upon hearing that. He felt bad for not hearing it sooner (or was it that Noelle have excellent hearing?). "Of course. We can resume this match some other time." He turns to Inteleon. "Let's move before it gets any worse." He smiles but his expression isn't any less serious. The male likes to get the job done when he could. "Alright, Inteleon. Show them that speed I was talking about earlier." The tall Pokémon seem to scoff before rushing off to the mansion ahead of everyone. Leon grabs his cape from the ground, slinging it back on, and also taking off.
Verna
She followed close behind them, not saying a word the whole way. Espeon looked concerned, and Mimikyu looked like... Well Mimikyu, but you could still tell he was concerned.
Raymond
**Noelle nodded to Freya, and they both ran into the mansion, side-by-side. Noelle had a scared look on her face, she didn't know what they could find inside that mansion, or who was doing those horrid things to the poor Pokemon. Nevertheless, the was right alongside Leon, leading the group.**
Michael
"Thus is bad... We should hurry!" *Nichol and Cinderace followed them. A thousand horrible possibilities ran through her mind, this was a gathering of Gym Leaders and Champions, how could something like this be happening?*
Breana
*Crystal arrives with her team, with all them ready, battle plan in hand* "I hope we can have an awesome battle!" *All of crystals pokemon are very excited!* "I trust that you can give me a good battle!" *Crystal then smiled*

*Crystal smiled* "That was a really good fight! Good job for beating me!" *Crystal was still happy, even though she was defeated, she then ran off to go heal her pokemon..*
Michael
*Margaret cheered as she hugged Guinevere.*
"Great job! You all did!" *She ran to catch up to Crystal. She then proceeded to heal her wonderful little champions.*
