` Molayne had just arrived from Alola. He was still feeling jet lagged. Apollo, his Ampharos was out of his Pokeball, keeping him company. Molayne wasn't the biggest fan of travelling in airplanes, especially not when took as much as this flight! He was just hoping to get to his room and take a nap. `
Patrica
Cinder would get off of her Charizard, Ryoko. The two managed to fly all the way here from Kalos, although breaks would be taken in between. She only came over with the bare essentials, a bedazzled flight suit and a piece of paper that would let her pick up the vast wardrobe that was being delivered to her from her vacation home in Kalos. A shiny stone could be seen on the riding harness of the Charizard.
Nancy
` Molayne was surprised. How did they manage to get there, without taking a plane? Poor Charizard, it was probably tired. Since they landed in front of him, Molayne had to say a hello and acknowledge them. ` "Alola!" ` Molayne smiled and waved at the duo. `
Patrica
Cinder was equally tired once she took off the helmet. Still she tried to keep a smile on her face at all times with an enthusiastic "Salutations!" As she leaned onto her Charizard.
Nancy
` Then it clicked! They didn't come here, they were already here. Maybe they worked here! ` "Could you help me find the mansion?", ` asked Molayne. He was such a genius! ` "I only got here and I have no clue where to go." ` Molayne chuckled and rubbed the back of his head. Ampharos went over to Charizard and let out a happy noise. `
Patrica
Charizard gave out a tired but happy noise, before yawning. "Um mansion?" Cinder asked as Ryoko closed her eyes a little, wanting to sleep. "Maybe later perhaps? Isn't there like a hotel or a bed and breakfast we can stay out? Both me and Ryoko here are pooped." She asked Molayne.
Nancy
"Aren't we supposed to be ... Let me check, I might be wrong." ` Molayne grabbed his letter out of his pocket and checked it again. He adjusted his glasses, making sure what he saw was correct. And yes, he was correct! It clearly stated that they were going to stay over at the Sigford mansion. ` "Aren't you going to be staying over at the mansion? I mean, you got invited to stay there, right?"`, asked Molayne, making sure. He could have been wrong too, he wasn't perfect. `
Patrica
Cinder blinked, before busting open her purse and scrolled over her travel documents. She must had missed it while flying over here and looked at the letter she was given. "Oh that MANSION. We're staying in it?" She said confused. "I thought it only counted for league members and champions." She said before rereading the letter again, only to realize she too was invited.
Nancy
"Haha, seems so." ` Molayne was happy to be staying over there. It was a big change of scenery. He had a small house, so living inside a mansion was going to be quite the change. ` "Sorry, I thought you worked here."`, explained Molayne, once again rubbing the back of his neck and letting out a nervous laugh. `
Patrica
"Oh no no no!" Cinder exclaimed as she rubbed the back of her head as her Charizard looked a little stumped before clicking her own Pokeball to get back in. A mansion room wasn't bad but given how she used to live in a penthouse, it isn't really a step up per say. "Say where are you from?" Cinder asked the elite four member.
Nancy
"We're from Alola. It's pretty nice!" ` Molayne loved living in Alola. It was pretty relaxing there! The sun was always shining and everyone there always seemed to be happy. Molayne couldn't imagine living elsewhere in the entire world. `
Patrica
"Sounds fun! I've always wanted to vacation in the sun, I'm from Unova! Sometimes it snows, sometimes it's pretty hot. Still I wouldn't trade it for the world!" Cinder explained. Sure Unova was busy and stressful at times but she would miss winter if she had to go to somewhere sunny all year long.
Nancy
"Haha, same!" ` Molayne liked her, what the kids would say, "Vibe". He enjoyed her company and found it pleasuring. It was better than being stuck in his Observatory back home. ` "Name's Molayne, nice to meet you!"` , said Molayne, introducing himself. He shook her hand and gave her a warm smile. `
Patrica
The girl smiled back, it was nice seeing a new face, one that was kind. "Cinder Zhou!" She exclaimed, as she reached her hand out for a shake.
Nancy
"Haha, that's a cute name!" ` Molayne was cut off by Apollo, who pointed to Charizard's Mega Stone. It had certainly gotten the attention of him. ` "Apollo seems to be interested in your Charizard's Mega Evolution! He finds it shiny." ` Ampharos signalled that he wanted to put it in his mouth and rubbed his belly, playfully giggling. ` "No, Apollo! Of course you can't eat the Mega Stone. It would get stuck to you!"`, explained Molayne, facepalming. `
Patrica
Ryoko would just look annoyed, was the Amphraos seriously trying to break her precious stone? The Charizard just gave a hmph at the idea. Still she was getting hungry too and with that came a growl from her stomach. "Oh well it looks like both of our Pokemon are hungry! Still is your Ampharos have a thing for rocks? Like collecting them or eating them or both?" Cinder joked as she began to fumble in her bag, looking for a treat or two.
Nancy
"Haha, I guess he likes shiny things. He thinks they're food." ` Just how like babies found marbles to be irresistible, that's how Apollo viewed Charizard's Mega Stone. He wanted to put it in his mouth. What a baby! ` "He occasionally picks up shiny trash."
Patrica
"Well that's odd, although I did see a Sableye once that did the same but then again he ate the orbs." Cinder remarked as her Charizard caught eye of a chocolate bar in Cinder's bag, tugging her shoulder before Cinder realized what she wanted. She then handed the bar over as the Charizard shredded the wrapper with her claws before swallowing it whole.
Nancy
"Oh, that's interesting." ` Apollo got jealous of Charizard. He wanted a Chocolate bar as well. He started grabbing Molayne by the hand and shaking him. Molayne smiled and reached into his backpack. He took out a bag of chips and handed it to him. `
Patrica
"Yeah apparently they eat rocks and other rock type Pokémon in the wild. Well rock rocks, the ones that don't move or have faces on them. Anyways, do they invite people based on previous accomplishments, at random or?" Cinder asked confused as Ryoko was still hungry and gazed at the chips with jealousy.
Nancy
"Haha, no clue! I'm guessing previous accomplishments, since a lot of people here are Elite Four Members, Champions and more."`, said Molayne, rubbing the back of his head. He didn't know why he was invited. He just was. There's nothing wrong with that. ` "Speaking of accomplishemnts, are you a Champion?" ` Molayne was unfamiliar with her. `
Patrica
"Sorta!?" Cinder explained. "Well I'm not a regional champion, but I do have 21 badges under my belt, 11 from Unova and 8 from Kalos and I am a three time champion of the Pokémon World Tournament or PWT!" Cinder said with pride as she and her Charizard puffed their chests.
Nancy
"That's 21 badges more than me, haha!" ` Molayne let out a soft laugh. It was a joke because they didn't have Gyms in Alola. ` "It's a joke, we don't actually have Gyms in Alola."`, explained Molayne, with a smile on his face, in case, it went over her head. ` "That's really cool, it's amazing. Well, what do you say we battle?"
Patrica
"Well at least I have that going." Cinder chuckled as she admired his Ampharos. "Say since you are a member of the elite four and got an Ampharos, is it safe to assume you're an electric type specialist?" Cinder asked before taking a pause. "Or do you want me to find out in your battle?" She asked as she picked out a Pokémon from her bag.
Nancy
` Molayne smiled. She was soon going to find out. ` "You'll see." ` Molayne reached into his bag and grabbed a Pokeball. Apollo sat down at a nearby bench and ate his chips like the good boy he was. ` "A three on three battle sounds fair?"
Patrica
"Three on three it seems." Cinder smiled as she passed Ryoko a bag of uncooked popcorn. The Charizard proceeded to heat it up with her palms, causing a pop and creating the corn for her to eat. Cinder reached for a Pokémon in her bag and found the perfect one, Xuehua, her Aloan Ninetales. 

"I just want to say Aloha!" Cinder smirked as she got into a fighting stance.

"Oh, well a place, as in I got it from a fan in Aloan who liked my music. Anyways, with Xuehua up, hail is gonna fall with Snow Warning!" Cinder exclaimed as the battlefield was filled with hail, "Okay get ready to block some attacks for your teammates! Aureoa Viel!" Cinder exclaimed as Xuehua created an icy forcefield for her and her team.
Nancy
` Smart play by Cinder. Sandlash's attack damage would be cut in half no matter what. Thankfully, Molayne knew what to do. If they were going to bring down their attack down, they were just going to bring it back up. `"Sandlash, Swords Dance!" ` Sandlash could easily tank a few hits from Ninetales. Raising its attack could help him out a lot.`
Patrica
The blond thought for herself for a moment, if Sandlash was gonna attack, it would be best to switch to a Pokemon that can have an advantage for a counter attack, rather than try to smack at the Sandslash, Xuehua returned to her ball for Chanterelle, her Belroom to shine.
Nancy
` Molayne thought about it and decided to switch out. He had boosted its attack but it was too risky to do so. ` "Sandlash, come back!" ` Molayne returned his Sandlash. ` "Go Skarmory!" ` Skarmory came out. Once again, he had the typing advantage. `
Patrica
Rather than playing the switching game, Chanterelle stayed in, holding onto a toxic orb, poisoning her before tossing a devastating punch mean to sap the health of the Skarmory. It was drain punch!
Nancy
` It did some damage but thankfully, due to it not being super effective and to Skarmory''s high defense, it wasn't anything significant. Molayne smiled and gave her a thumbs up. ` "Great job, Cinder. Icarus ... Drill Peck." ` Skarmory flew up in the air and tried to hit Cinder. A 4x super effective STAB move would surely do a lot of damage, despite the Aurora Veil. `
April
"Block it with Spore!" Cinder exclaimed as her Breloom jumped back to spew out a puff of sleeping spores onto the Skarmory.
Nancy
` Poor Skarmory went to sleep. Molayne couldn't do nothing about it. At least, a few turns of the Aurora Veil would be wasted. He really didn't want to switch out and reveal his third Pokemon. ` "That was clever, Cinder!"`, said Molayne, letting out a laugh. `
Patrica
"Alright let's finish this! Drain punch again and again!" Cinder cried as her Breloom kept tossing draining punches into a sleeping Skarmory.
Nancy
` Skarmory just took there, taking the hits. This was going to end soon enough, wasn't it? ` "Skarmory, just hang in there!" ` A few rounds and Aurora Veil would be over and then, it'd be easier for them to take Cinder's team down. `
Patrica
Chantelle just kept on shaming her fists into Skarmory, it didn't look good for the steel bird, especially since hail was falling.
Nancy
` Molayne didn't like where this was going and rightfully so. Unfortunately, Skarmory went down, giving Cinder the advantage here, since she had all of her Pokemon, compared to Molayne who only had 2. ` "Hehe, you did good out there, Skarmory. Don't worry, though." ` Molayne sent out his third and final Pokemon, his Metagross. ` "Come on out, Metagross. Use Zen Headbutt!"
Patrica
"Spore!!!" Cinder cried as a fully powered Chantelle would fire as many spores as possible to put the rampaging Metagross to sleep.
