I'm healed and cleared to return to work. But since I have to give 24hr heads up, I go back Sat even though I prob could go back tomorrow.
OK, my surgery is tomorrow morning, so I went ahead and posted the battle vs Brandon.
Brandon welcomed them in, and showed them where the rooms they would sleep in would be. In the morning, Brandon and his assistants had breakfast prepared for everyone. After they all ate, Brandon and Liam took their places on the battlefield. Brandon pressed a button to open the top of the Pyramid, to allow the Rotomdroid in, and closed the pyramid up behind it.

"This will be an official World Coronation match," The Rotomdroid announced. "Each combat may use one of the following: Mega Evolution, Z Move, and Dynamax. Each trainer is permitted the use of three Pokemon, and substitutions are allowed. The battle will end when one trainer is out of Pokemon. The winner of this Ultra Rank Match will have a chance to battle and get into the Master's Eight. Currently ranked at 55, we have Johto Champion, 'Dragon Master' Liam Coleman. His opponent will be the currently ranked 13, Head of the Battle Frontier, 'Pyramid King' Brandon! Now Trainers, call out your first pokemon!"

"Regirock, I acquire your assistance!" Brandon declared.
"Smaug, it's Time to shine!" Liam called, sending out Charizard.

Brandon vs Liam
Regirock -1- Charizard
? -2- ?
? -3- ?

"Smaug, return," Liam called, subtitling out Goodra.

Brandon vs Liam
Regirock -1- Charizard
? -2- Goodra
? -3- ?

"Regirock, Lock on!" Brandon called. A reticle appeared on Goodra. Liam theroized that Brandon might be going for Zap Cannon next, as he knows that is a combo he favors.

"Zap Cannon is very inaccurate, but is guaranteed to paralyze if it connects, Liam thought to himself. "That'sz why he's setting up with Lock On. It will keep me from pulling any tricks to wiggle away from the attack. Wait, I have one idea to get around this."

"Goodra, Dragon Tail!" Goodra smacked Regirock with his tail and forced it back to its ball. Registeel was dragged out.

Brandon vs Liam
Regirock -1- Charizard
Registeel -2- Goodra
? -3- ?

"Registeel, Iron Defense!" Brandon called. Registeel increased its physical defense.
"Goodra, Flamethrower!" Goodra unleashed a jet of flames that did considerable damage to the metal titan.
"Flash Cannon!" Brandon called. The attack landed a direct hit on Goodra.
"Goodra, try Flamethower again! Liam called. This time, it got the burn. Brandon called for Lock on again, to which Liam countered with Dragon Tail again. This time, Regice was dragged out. As this was not a good matchup for Goodra, Liam recalled him for Smaug.

Brandon vs Liam
Regirock -1- Charizard
Registeel -2- Goodra
Regice -3- ?

"If I Mega Evovled Smaug, it would activte drought. I could then hope to quickly melt away Regice before it pulls anything like Hail or Sheer Cold. Of course, Hail is a danger to his other two, but one of them probably has Sandstorm as it doesn't hurt either of them. Meanwhile both of them can harm almost anyone on my team, regardless of who I use. As far as I know, Brandon doesn't have any of the three gimicks. I guess it's my best bet."

Liam activated his key stone and Mega Evolved Smaug to Mega Charizard Y and called for Flamethrower.

Brandon vs Liam
Regirock -1- Mega Charizard Y
Registeel -2- Goodra
Regice -3- ?

The attack hit for Considerable damage, Regice went for Zap Cannon, but missed.
(sun 1)

Liam called for another Flamethower while Brandon called for blizzard. Smaug's wing was clipped, but the sun's rays meant it was too hot for it too freeze.

(Sun 2)

Liam now getting desprate called for Blast Burn, This move did enough to finish off Regice and Regirock took his place.

Brandon vs Liam
Regirock -1- Mega Charizard Y
Registeel -2- Goodra
Regice -3- ?

(Sun 3)

While Smaug recharged, Regirock set up Sandstorm.

(Sand 1)

Regirock used Lock On and Liam, felt his best bet was his "Plan B" for Brandon. "Smaug, Return! Durladon! It's time to shine!"

Brandon vs Liam
Regirock -1- Mega Charizard Y
Registeel -2- Goodra
Regice -3- Duraladon

Being Steel typed, Duraladon would not be harmed by sandstorm, so it was his best bet at the moment, but this set his three for the match, and would leave Jiriya as not being an option like he wanted.
Liam called for Laser Focus, which guranteed Duraladon's next move would be a critical.

(Sand 2)
Feeling Regirock was in too great of danger, Brandon felt he had no choice but to swap it out for Registeel

Brandon vs Liam
Regirock -1- Mega Charizard Y
Registeel -2- Goodra
Regice -3- Duraladon

"Lock On!" Brandon called. His best bet would be to hope to survive the incoming attack then paralyze the metal dragon with Zap Cannon.

"Rock Smash!" Liam called. The attack landed and was a crit, lowering Registeel's Defense,

(Sand 3, Burn)

Zap Cannon landed and paralyzed Duraladon.

Liam called for Rock Smash, but Duraladon was too paralyzed to take an action.

(Sand 4 Burn)

Registeel was starting to look worse for wear. Brandon called for Metal Claw while Liam called for another Rock Smash. Duraladon managed to move and both attacks landed. The two Pokemon landed with their backs to one another. Duraladon bucked and fell over KO'd, while burn damage made Registeel follow. Brandon had to send Regirock back out, and Liam sent Goodra out.

Brandon vs Liam
Regirock -1- Mega Charizard Y
Registeel -2- Goodra
Regice -3- Duraladon

(Sand 5)

Liam called for Muddy Water while Brandon called for Lock On.

Liam knew that it was now, or never. He recalled Goodra and sent Smaug back out, re-stablishing Drought. If Regirock had Sandstorm, Liam was probably sunk.

Brandon vs Liam
Regirock -1- Mega Charizard Y
Registeel -2- Goodra
Regice -3- Duraladon

Brandon called for Lock On. The reticle appeared on Smaug's belly, but Liam hoped it wouldn't matter.

"Solarbeam!" Liam called. The grass attack charged through and landed a direct hit on Regirock, who managed to hold on, though it seemed just barely. Granted, it can be difficult to tell on the Regis due to the lack of a traditional face. Regirock fired Zap Cannon and got a critical hit, KO'ing Smaug. It was down to Regirock vs Goodra

Brandon vs Liam
Regirock -1- Mega Charizard Y
Registeel -2- Goodra
Regice -3- Duraladon

Both Pokemon looked straight ahead at the other, as the trainers did the same with one another.
"Hyper Beam!" Brandon called the same time Liam called: "Dragon Pulse!"

The two beams crashed in the middle of the arena, causing a huge explosion that smashed some panes of glass out from the Battle Pyramid into the Crown Tundra. All they could do is wait for the smoke to clear.

The two minutes it took for the smoke and dust to clear felt like a year, Liam was deeply nervous about the result. When it cleared, Regirock was on the ground, face down. Goordra was supporting itself with his tail and panting heavily.

The Rotomdroid flew over to take a closer look.

"Regirock is unable to battle, the winner is Goodra! That means the victory goes to: 'Dragon Master' Liam Coleman! As of right now, there has been a change in the rankings!"

the Jumbo screen in the Pyramid Showed Liam and Brandon with their scores prior to this match: 55 and 13 respectively, the numbers changed to give Liam "11" and Brandon "42". The Rotomdroid then flew out of the roof. Liam ran out and hugged Goodra, praising it for the win. Goodra was happy about the win, but fell over from exhaustion soon after. Liam recalled Goodra to his Luxury Ball and approached Brandon as he opened the Pyramid back up to let the drone out.

Brandon and Liam shook hands and thanked each other for the good battle. An Assitant wheeled out a Healing Machine so the six used Pokemon could be healed. He then asked the heroes if they wanted to come investigate these ruins with him, as he has an idea of what might be inside of them.
"Yup, let's get inside," Liam said.
"We can worry about it later," Liam said while shivering. "Besides, knowing Brandon I would bet my bottom Pokedollar it has something to do with the Regis"
Liam commented that there is a feature where he can call his opponent. Liam hypothesized it was to help make sure a pair of opponents can meet up easier. Liam sent Brandon a message, and he agreed to let them stay there, going so far as to ping the Pyramid's location on Liam's phone. It was near some two-tone ruins where the left half was a different color from the right, which Liam felt was kind of odd.
"I mean, Brandon might be willing to put us up for the night if needed," Liam commented.
"Well, its getting late, and I need to battle Brandon in the World Coronation match in the morning." Liam said. He pointed off into the distance, I noticed the Battle Pyramid fly over there during the preformances.
I would want to get Cherami to autograph my Persona 5 Royal Steelbook and then have my 2nd Phantom Thief signature. I'd also want to show Blum the book for the Cowboy Bebop TTRPG.
I'm going to have my foot cut open in two places in a few weeks, and I'm "lucky"? Just because I should be fully healed on time doesn't mean I will. The guest list is stacked: Charles Martinet, Steve Blum, JYB, Karan Ashley, Tom Kenny, Matthew Lewis, Cherami Leigh, Kaiji Tang, among others.
