Tristan Glory










Indeed, Tristan finally bothered to do the responsible thing to actually learn the basics needed to be a competent trainer. Too bad it was one of the dullest things he could think of doing.... reading though there were a few exceptions like texting or reading up on fashion magazines and the like. And the more he read on the more bored he found himself, learning about types and their weaknesses but already wishing for something, anything to save him from this mundane activity.

A wish he would instantly come to regret and possibly one of his biggest regrets in life at that as unknown to him a most ominous force of nature had set its eyes on the bored prude.

Before long he noticed the presence of two strangers stepping over which made him sigh inwardly to himself as he readied himself to tell them to leave him as while he wanted this reading session to end, it was a topic he unfortunately needed to learn in full. And it was then that he was assaulted by the most abrasive accent imaginable followed by gibberish nonsense that lacked any semblance of proper language save but for maybe the first few words that he could get an inkling of, if you could consider such alien speak words. Tristan swore that it felt like he was just sucker punched which left him clinging to the chair stunned and blinking both in disbelief and uncertainty. His face showing the most confused what the fuck expression possible; words that sounded like ancient lost dialect too troublesome for him to even attempt deciphering and so opted instead to turn his attention to the other besides this.... girl? She-beast?

Turning his attention instead to Freya where he would once again be surprised though this time was a pleasant one as he couldn't help but mentally whoa at the sight of the miraculously tall girl. And upon a single glance he could see that she was quite the beauty on top of being freakishly tall for a woman; a most interesting rarity that had him immensely intrigued. How odd to have such a fascinating girl accompanied by what he mused to a tribal creature from some lost tribe. Of course, what the rich teen was feeling was nothing as silly or childish as a crush; like a certain frumpy fangirl was doing elsewhere no, his was more akin to admiration similar to an explorer discovering a new and rare specimen worthy of studying.

Requiring a few more moments to compose himself while fixing his shirt before he sat up into a relaxed pose leaning against the left armrest." Why, yes... yes, I am. It seems you have a good eye to notice my potential as a trainer much like miss Adriane." Nodding with a pleased smile; delighted to see someone recognizing his potential finally which is why the current champion who may be the ultimate goal to dfeat was one of the only few deserving of his respect. Coughing into his right fist to clear his throat." The name is Tristan... Tristan Glory. A name to keep an eye out for as it will soon be known all across the region as the one to end Adriane's reign." He chuckled after stating such a bold claim then he shifted by draping his left leg over his right leg and his chin against his left palm." And I can tell by a mere glance that you must be a chosen trainer as well? Though it would be amiss of me to not mention that a towering beauty like you have a staggering potential to be an idol that most could only dream of but before I go any further. I can't be so rude as to forget to ask for your name miss....?" He asked with a raised brow; actually, eager to know this person who was so unlike all the lesser rabble around them or the one besides her.

This in turn reminded him of Freya's associate whom on closer look did have a tomboyish cute charm to her. Unfortunately, any potential she might have had were ruined by the intense vibe she gave off combined with that abrasive and foreign manner of speaking that would intimidate and scare off any possible fans save for the braver and more reckless crowd." And I suppose I should ask for your...friend? or associate's name? Though I admit I have no inkling of what she said." Keeping his attention mostly on Freya as he spoke hoping to get into her good graces; clearly Tristan didn't recognize Steph whatsoever as she was hardly one he would want to associate himself with and even looking at her made him feel anxious as if she might try to beat him up at any moment.

After what seemed like forever with some mishaps that found him at some restaurant, a gym (the excercise kind for you peons) and a toy store did Tristan finally arrive at a pokemon center." Ugh, finally! I swear whoever designed this city deserved to be lined up and shot!" The teen stated in a tired and exasperated tone while giving the still injured King a pat on the head, the bird having been resting on his shoulder had recovered a little though was still need of a proper healing." Well, we're here so whatever. I have half a mind to tell the nurse they owe an apology to my pokemon who had to wait so long." shaking his head with a tsk of the tongue.

Not wanting to waste any more time, Tristan made his way inside while adjusting the straps to his backpack where he strolled over to the counter to find nurse Joy waiting there with a bright smile as was typical of pokemon center." Good day and all that jazz. Got King here and one other in need of healing." He explained while setting the ball with Princess inside on the counter while trying to keep his annoyance from slipping into his tone." Want to get inside the pokeball, King?" He asked while holding up the bird's pokeball as he saw the shiny Murkrow shake his head with a low caw before gently flapping his wings to land on the counter showing he was ready and eager for treatment. Seeing this brought a proud smile to his face as he patted King on the head." Truly a champion in the making. Try not to cause the nurse any trouble." Nodding as he glanced the nurse over and while she seemed a tad plain, the nurse uniform added a cute allure to it and found himself approving of the pokemon center's clothing aesthetic.

With his pokemon handed over for treatment, Tristan then moved over to a vacant seat a good distance from everyone else preferring not to be bothered or mingling with the lesser rabble. Uncertain of how long it would take he got to taking out his pokedex thinking at first to just text Trevor and others among the rich crowd until he thought back to the battle and how poorly it went. If both he and Astrid saw how abysmal it was then he could only imagine what his father and siblings would think if they witnessed such a pathetic display. And so, he chose to spend this time reading up on the basic information regarding pokemon like types and typing advantages/weaknesses, albeit reluctantly.

These next seconds were the most intense as he stared at the ball rock back and forth with such intensity that his eyes nearly went bloodshot. This catch was practically make-or break as King was on his last leg making it unlikely the exhausted bird could be knocked over by a moderate breeze. And then that wondrous ding signaling success and with it all the tension deflated from his body with a relieved deep sigh after having hold his breath followed with a weak happy chuckle.

Tristan was about to break out into a victorious cheer when Astrid suddenly chimed in, reminding him of the teacher's presence. Having to listen to the woman grade his performance and battle only to hit him with a C; those few words deflated any sense of satisfaction much like the tension in him had done moments ago as he fought the urge to glare and call her off for butting in as he never asked for her opinion. Refusing to let her ruin his very first victory and accomplishment and so chose to simply stare at her incredulously." Gee...thanks." The words came out stiff and forced with a hint of sarcasm as he stood up fixing his shirt and hair to recompose himself." I may admit this battle was not handled in the most graceful manner, but seeing that it was our first battle, I have to say that King did exceptionally well in following my orders as brilliantly and sudden as they were." He said with a short boastful laugh trying to save face by acting like it was all according to plan while King let out an almost uncertain happy chirp at the praising... compliment?

Ceasing his laughter upon seeing the teacher head off as he let his body relax looking exhausted." Ugh...no one told me pokemon battling could be so stressful." As well as keeping up that confident and strong image he worked meticulously to maintain but seeing the resting pokeball got him to perk back up; strolling over while holding up the pokedex to see showcasing the full intel on the riolu and money earned." That teacher's unwanted grading aside, I'd dare say this momentous occasion calls for a celebratory selfie!" Tristan exclaimed in a sing songy manner then turned and position himself a bit to the right of King with the Pokedex held up in an angle to get both him, the murkrow and pokeball." Come, King and pose like winners do!" Holding up his right-hand index finger to indicate number one with a dazzling smile while King lifted his left wing and head tilted in a cocky manner as a click of the photo was taken.

Tristan looked over the selfie with a pleased grin." Mhm, I knew you would be photogenic King though not at my level quite yet, but before long I will show everyone you are worthy to be considered royalty." Nodding to the bird who gave another happy, albeit tired chirp as his trainer pursed his lips thinking to himself." Hm, I think this could use something to give that bit more...oomph before I send it out." Clicking his tongue a few times as he pondered before a most wicked idea came to mind.

#Firstvictory #Firstcapture #suckitprofkaput

Snickering as he added these captions then hummed as he went to post and send to everything." There we are. I think that's a decent start for some good payback for that washed-up geezer's humiliation." The selfie and his first win did much to get Tristan back in a good mood that he found himself whistling as he moved and bent over to snatch up the pokeball." You may have been a stress inducing headache but I'm happy to introduce you to team Glory. I'll be sure to give you a proper introduction later..." Stopping to think of a name for the riolu with a curious tilting of the head before perking up with an idea." Princess! Soon you will attain the graceful title of Glory alongside King." Nodding his head in a smug manner as the bird gave a tired cawed cheer along with a weak flap of his wings. Being reminded once more of the murkrow's exhausted state, likely unable to fly all that well and so Tristan crouched down offering his hand which King looked at uncertain before hopping onto it who was then lifted up to be offered to hop onto his shoulder." You've done amazingly well standing up to this Riolu without backing down. Go ahead and rest, but I best not see a single tear or wrinkle." He warned with a raised index finger held up in front of his beak to which the bird let out another happy caw while nuzzling the finger.

Pleased to see the shiny murkrow in such a good mood as well though couldn't help but worried for the bird seeing how injured he looked, and Princess was hardly in any better shape and so figured his next plan of action was to visit a pokemon center. Hearing voices though got his attention having him turn his head to see Astrid now talking with a girl he vaguely recalled seeing back at the pokelab who seemed to be having some trouble with that scalie beast that was nothing but mouth and teeth. The sight of the tyrunt made him cringe; already having endured being popped on and tossed out of the lab by that horrid hydreigon that he simply did not want to risk any chance of getting bitten by that untamed beast." Hmph, let the teacher deal with that though I can't exactly deny her assessment. We will definitely need to work on our battling and timing." Looking to King who nodded his little head in agreement.

" Right, now then. Pokemon center it is. Course if we run into a pokemart first then might as well get the shopping done with...whichever we come across first." Placing his index and middle finger to his temple and gave a farewell salute followed with a dazzling toothy grin in Astrid's direction as his way of offering his thanks whether she saw it or not then turned to depart from the park.

From there, Tristan set off whether to a pokemon center or pokemart or if fate had other plans in store to some unknown destination as one could never tell where this rich teen's direction sense would lead him.

Everything looked to have slowed down immediately after the whole thing went down as in that instant Tristan had the expression of utter disbelief at what he just witnessed." That actually worked?" He blinked stupidly then quickly recomposed himself while clearing his throat." I-I mean of course it worked. My brilliance as a trainer finally got the chance to shine." Said with a forced toothy smile, the corner of his mouth twitching thankful that no one witnessed the crapshoot result of a plan he didn't think would actually work out as he had no way to know how skilled Riolu was at maneuvering with quick attack.

And for King's sake he kept up a confidant front not wanting the bird to think he basically left him out to dry with a dumb strategy. Well, regardless of how things went, it all turned out fine as he could see the riolu was weaken enough to attempt capture.

Now the only problem was the fact he only had five pokeballs; five chances to catch such a rare pokemon. As you can imagine the tension was high to the rich boy teen who was gulping nervously. With how the day was going, there was high chance all his luck just went into that last move of his, but no point wasting any time as he grabbed a pokeball which enlarged to normal size then wind back and threw the ball. A truly pathetic throw that had the ball land only a few inches in front of Tristan as he had the arm strength of an undeveloped toddler.

The ball flew at the injured riolu which got pulled within and now all Tristan could do was wait anxiously to see the result.

Taken aback at seeing the result of his attempt at a plan ending with both pokemon getting hit though King seemed to get the worse of it out of the two. His body tensed up upon seeing the murkrow fall to the ground, the shiny bird shakily getting to its feet with small flaps of his wings to shake off bits of grass.* Damn it! Can't believe that didn't work...maybe I should have just had him go straight for the Riolu.* Chiding himself in his head as he could feel the frustration and pressure starting to get to him which made trying to think more difficult for the inexperienced teen.

Struggling to think of what to do; worried that his orders might just lead to King getting himself hurt again, but he was already running out of time with Riolu gearing up for what seemed to be a quick attack.* Ugh...fresh out the door and already I'm going to lose? N-no! I can't....I can't waste an opportunity to get a rare pokemon like Riolu.* His mind flashing back to the Riolu hugging his leg and how nice and comforting it felt to receive actual affection for once. Tristan frantically wracked his mind while looking over King who was panting and still reeling from the blow, figuring the bird was too injured still to take flight properly and dodge. It was then that his eyes caught sight of the few scattered feathers left from the featherdance from earlier and dirt causing a stupidly reckless idea to come to mind though nothing else came to mind." Tch, this is a desperate move but.... King! Flap your wings to stir up the feathers and dirt up in front of you then blast with an Astonish!"

Tristan called out the order which as expected King found strange but wanting to trust his trainer had flapped its wings to kick up a small cloud mixed of dirt and feathers. This was an action that would likely cause no damage; instead aimed to momentarily halt and distract the rushing Riolu in the midst of a quick attack that Tristan hoped to not be skilled enough to alter its path to avoid the dust cloud and whether it succeded or not, King would let out another shrieking Astonish.

D'angelo leaned back on the cloud in a pondering manner tilting his head.' Normal thing? Well, I wouldn't say headbutting to be normal for me, but I can definitely say it was a top grade headbutt." Pursing his lips in thought for a moment then broke out in an amusing laughter but it was cut short upon hearing Trinity's next statement that made him gasp while looking as if he was offended." Stranger? I can assure you that Nolan has always loved my hugs and if us cousins can't hug then I don't see the point in being related." The pudgy male stated still looking a bit hurt though perked right back up with a brimming smile." Oh, you bet I have stories!" Floating over to Trinity and leaned close to whisper." Like one that involved asking to cover up for him at a sleepover we had regarding a...wet accident." His tone suggestive and a bit mischievous as he pulled away with a cheeky snicker." But, I will save that for another time. And once again, it's great to meet'cha Trinity!" Raising his right hand giving a friendly thumbs up.

His ear twitching at hearing Ariel mention stories regarding Nolan causing stars of excitement to sparkle in his eyes as he jumped up landing to rest on his stomach on Nimbus. Rushing over to Ariel's left as the sudden motion nearly made him skid off the golden cloud." Any and everything that you're willing to tell, of course!" How could he not be eager to hear about the adventures Nolan has been on these past nine years and the people he has met and gotten close to? One thing he certainly wanted to hear about was how Ariel and Nolan wound up in a relationship but figured that one to be a little too personal tell to a stranger though before long he hoped to be good friends with Ariel. Tilting his head to and fro trying to think of something more appropriate." Hm.....Oh! I'd like to hear the story of how the two of you had met, if that's alright?" Asking with that overly bright grin, smiling like a excited child while his feet gently swayed in the air, Nimbus rumbling gently beneath him as if annoyed at all his moving around.

Tristan felt pleased to see King initiating his orders, albeit a bit slow and clumsily at the beginning. Something to work on in the near future, but for now it was fine as the featherdance as he hoped and gave a small pump of his fist as he prepared himself for his next plan of action. Only to be thrown off-guard by Riolu's unexpected actions of using a quick attack to boost to boost itself along the trees as a platform to jump its way up to King." T-that's cheating...uh..right! King, dodge it!" He stammered out the order due to being thrown off.

The stammered order both confused the murkrow a tad and came a bit too late as the bird frantically flapped its wings to move out of the way but was too slow to dodge completely leaving King staggered and lost altitude though was still hovering while wincing a bit. Tristan was gritting his teeth trying to figure out what to do next only to come up blank; thankful for the featherdance hindering the attack power or King might have been knocked to the ground." Tch, screw it. Shake it off King and fly around the tree so Riolu can't see where you're coming from before it lands and hit it with an astonish!" He called out the commands while clenching his fists and gulped, hoping this was the right call and would work as King gave a sharp flap of its wing to brush off the pain with a loud cry then quickly flew around to the left of the tree then dipped down as it went aiming to appear below Riolu and upon reaching the pokemon were it to make it would let out a sudden loud shriek near point blank for an astonish.

Now that he was given the proper time to compose himself Tristan could feel his mood improving possibly in part from Riolu's comforting presence. Noticing the woman whose name as he would soon learn to be Astrid continue on to explain more about Riolu and how it was a seemingly well sought after by those of Cypher for its abilities. Shifting in place while folding his arms across his chest as he let out a disappointed sigh with a distasteful look." Hmph, such a horrid group, Cypher. Going to such length to do despicable and ugly things. It makes me proud to know my family is working to help undo the damage of their wicked deeds."

Cypher, a name even he has heard about and while he didn't know the intricate details, he knew enough to abhor the group. They best hope they never have the misfortune to run into him for if he had been around at the time, he would have put an end to the genocidal monsters.

The day he teaches teaches them to regret ever showing their ugly mugs in his presence is one to come all too soon. Pulled from the pleasing thoughts of future feats upon hearing the teacher speak once more and would nod in response." Astrid is it? Then I offer my thanks once more, miss Astrid. Do be sure to keep those tips in mind as they will surely make you popular among the student and fellow staff."

Thinking to offer a few more tips when the Riolu's unexpected shout got his attention as intended having him look down at the canine esque pokemon wondering what it was shouting about. His left eyebrow rose when Astrid offered her suggestion which the Riolu seemed to agree to." A battle?" He pondered over the notion while stroking at his chin as he glanced down at the two pokemon, King holding up his wings confidently to show he was ready and raring to go." Hm, yes. I suppose this is a chance to see what this Murkrow is capable of and no better way to test the skills of Riolu." With a determined nod he pointed down at the blue furred pokemon." I graciously accept this challenge and be ready for this is the day you shall find Glory!" Tristan exclaimed boastfully then gave a tooth dazzling wink to Astrid who he considered quite lucky to witness his first battle and the beginning of his conquest.

Turning away from Astrid and the school he made his way to one of the empty fields used for battles and upon reaching the spot lightly spun into a dramatic pose with a snap of his fingers signaling King to fly over and land before him." Consider yourself honored, Riolu. You shall be the first of countless conquest." Smugly grinning with that dazzling smile once more then pulled out his pokedex to scan the opposing pokemon once more.

Listening to the pokedex's entry while observing the pokemon." Hm...I'm still working to memorize all the types and all that jazz but this one seems to either be normal or...fighting type." Once again pondering while stroking his chin trying to remember the lessons from the family butler; rambling on about something regarding type matching being important and vital and other such facts." ugh..that man really knew how to droll me to sleep. Well, I've never been one to bother overthinking things."

With a flick of his hair, he shifted forward to show he was ready." Alright, King. Time to show your stuff!" The shiny murkrow cawed out with a few flaps of its wings and a sharp glint in its eyes signaling the start of the battle.

Tristan studied the pokemon for a few moments longer thinking over the moves the murkrow trying to figure out his plan of actions. Then without warning he flung his right hand forward pointing his index finger." Quick, take to the sky king and make some distance then follow up with a featherdance." The rookie teen called out his orders as King did as ordered albeit fumbling a bit on the take-off due to not being used to receiving sudden orders as it moved to fly up until it was at a height just short the tree lines from the ground. The bird let out a piercing crow before giving several strong flaps of its wings sending a flurry of black feathers aimed at Riolu aiming to hinder and weaken it physically; this assuming King succeeded in reaching its way into the sky.

Tristan Glory










A part of Tristan was still reeling from the near panic attack and was likely one of the reasons he was avoiding eye contact with the teacher. Not until she mentioned about something hugging his leg prompting him to look down to see blue furred bipedal canine hugging his leg causing the newbie trainer to nearly jump in surprise." Bloody hell?! Where did this thing come from?" Blinking in confusion before hearing the woman speak about him being distress." wha- I...distressed? I bet your pardon? I am far from distressed I assure you." Turning away while giving a forced nervous laugh, his right hand waving rapidly in front of his face hiding the signs of small tear streaks.*Calm down you idiot. I must never show anything but my fabulous and best.* Thinking this to himself while taking deep breaths to sooth yet another panic attack beginning to grow. Clearly Tristan was quite the fragile person that did not take pressure well or letting others see him distraught and looking so unfabulous.

While Tristan was hiding his embarrassed face slick with tear stain and sweat, King had landed next to the Riolu where he gave a happy caw in response to the woman while raising its wing in determination then turned to start chatting with the pokemon as if thanking it for trying to comfort his trainer.

A few calming mantra chanted in his head later Tristan turned his head with a quick brush of his hand wiping the bits of tears then passing it off as flicking his hair." You mentioned something about sensing emotions and aura?" Glancing down at the Riolu; finding it strange that an unknown wild pokemon was willing to come up to a stranger to comfort them and made him ponder on the last time he even received an actual genuine hug. A sad pang struck his heart briefly as he sniffed then coughed as if clearing his throat to play it off." W-well I assure you that one as fabulous as I am in no need in comforting.....but would be rude to refuse a kind gesture. So I offer my thanks little..er...one?" Extending his right hand down to give it a pat on the head as thanks." And thanks to you as well, young lady for offering some actual useful tips unlike a certain grouch." Nodding as he leaned in to get a closer look at the teacher and snapped his fingers." Those glasses do not do your face justice. With those slim cheeks and curve of your chin. I recommend a pair more sleek and compact to really make those blue eyes pop and your hair...perhaps try some softer conditioner to give a more silky and brighter color to your hair." Nodding with a proud smile at the tips he so kindly offered.

Stopping to take a breather thinking he arrived at his destination but as Tristan glanced around, he would find no pokemart in sight and instead found himself at some park. The panting teen wiped the sweat from his brow with his left hand while glowering at the pokedex held in his right." A park?! Stupid thing can't even guide properly. Figures that I would be given such a useless device from that pitiful geezer." Tristan glared at the pokedex when hearing that voice speak out once more detailing info on the nearby pokemon scanned though none of them interested him really. Two of them being flying type and he already had King currently pecking at the ground around him and meowth was a very familiar one often popular among the rich, the wives in particular.

Pocketing the pokedex with an agitated sigh before it could do more to frustrate him." I'm starting to wonder why I bothered coming here." The silver haired teen grumbled to himself while rubbing at his forehead; not that it mattered as he wouldn't have been able to buy anything with the pittance afforded him. And it didn't help that this pack was killer against his back.

After giving himself a minute to calm down did he give another glance around trying to decide where to go when his eyes came upon the trainer school where several kids could be seen running about. His face cringed in distaste at the sight of them and for a moment thought to just avoid the school altogether, but the glimpses of pokemon around there seemed far more eye-fetching than the plain common ones." Guess I might as well try to get some actual info of worth...more than I can say for this pokedex." With a snap of his fingers for King to follow, he set off towards the school making sure to avoid the group of kids running around as he had no patience to deal with snot nosed brats right now though he did hear of something interesting about some baby blue pokemon in passing.

Hearing this tidbit might just be the pick-me up he needed after all the troublesome affair he had endured bringing a little pep to his wobbling legs. For the moment his mood lifted as he strolled through a pack of pidoves which he waved his hands away to shoo the hooting birds away." Out of the way. I have no bread so be off as I have no time for any nonsense." A few more waves of his hand caused the pidoves to fly off nearly all at once and was about to continue on his way when he felt something splat onto his left shoulder.

Turning his head to see the blot of white bird poop staining the shirt causing eyes to go wide in shock and disgust." NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! You damn rats with wings! If I ever get my hands on you, I'll tear your feathers off feather by feather!" He scowled out in pure rage while shaking his fist at the departing pidoves, his face red with anger as he quickly fumbled around in his pockets until he found a hanky." Come on...come on got to get it before it settles.... ugh this day can't get any worse." After a few licks to moisten the hanky, he fervently scrubbed at the poop giving it a good number of hard rubs removing nearly all but a small residue to which he choked back the sobs at seeing his beloved shirt being besmirched once more.

Fifteen minutes later of near crying and panic attacks Tristan finally settled down enough to continue on his way though still continuing to rub at the spot trying to get the bit of residue. Stepping his way over to the young bespectacled woman." Tch, this isn't coming out anytime soon. If only I had proper cleaning supplies." Tristan grumbled to himself before speaking to the teacher." You, the woman wearing those gaudy glasses. What is this I hear about some baby blue pokemon?" He inquired while keeping his attention on rubbing out the stain with little luck while King had settled itself next to him on its right giving a loud caw with a raise of his wings announcing himself.
