Aro nodded as Kjolmar suggested that he go first this time. As Kjolmar and Beau made thier way up to the stands Aro walked forward onto the arena. Though it didn't look like much of an arena, grass covered every inch of the floor, tropical flowers and trees were spread about the place. Knowing Gardenia though, she was probably planning to use the nonthreatening looks of her arena to her advantage. Aro had to stay sharp and keep track of her game plan.
"This battle will be set for one fall and is for the Eterna City Gym badge. The challenger is Aro. Please select you pokemon." The announcer said.
"I choose you, Roserade!" Gardenia cried as she threw her pokeball out.
Aro thought about his options. Luna was his obvious go to but on light of his recent revelation thought it best to try and strengthen his team. He pulled out a pokeball from his belt.
"Lets do this, Dante go!" Aro yelled.
As the the Chimchar and Roserade stared at each other, Aro and Gardenia did the same.
"Dante Ember!"
Dante breathed fire in the Roserades direction, but was blocked by a razor leaf attack of its own. The roserade lept out at the chimchar in a counter move.
"Roserade use Poison Jab." Gardenia said as the Roserade made contact.
Dante was sent flying across the room and Aro shuddered. Was this a bad decision? He couldnt lose another pokemon. He buckled down his thoughts and assessed the situation. Leftover embers from Dantes earlier attack had deflected onto a nearby bush and had slightly set fire.
"Dante use flame wheel...." Aro said as Dante got to his feet and started running until his body became a rolling ball of flames.
"... flame wheel that palm tree now."
Dante launched past the roserade and hit a nearby tree which fell and landed ontop of the nearby fire. The Roserade dodged the falling debris as the fallen tree started to set ablaze too. The roserade started to look around for its opponent however there was no sight of Dante. It started getting worried as the flames started to corner it between the bush and tree.
"Now DANTE!" The Chimchar flew out from the flames and tackled the Roserade into the blaze it was trying to avoid. The pokemon crashed to the ground and dust rosee up along with the debris and dirt, most of which suffocated the flames and whatever was left was quickly put out by Seren who Aro had brought out just in case. After all Aro didnt want to burn the place down, just win the badge.
As the dust settled Dante stood although barely clearly taking alot of damage from the impact, the Roserade however was left unconscious due to the super effective typings of the attack.
"Well done Aro, you used your typings and surroundings to win this battle, please take the Forest Badge." she smiled as she handed it over.
Aro retreated both Dante and Seren. He then walked over to the stands.
"I guess its your turn now." He smiled to Kjolmar.
