...long. Time to put him in his place… after the break. Properly saying goodbye to everyone else again, I led Sally into the limo and we headed off.

"Alright Sal, welcome to Paldea," I said, waving an arm out at the dusty field in front of us.
"Uh, 'Mona? I've kinda been here for hours...
Athena stood proudly on the field, with Cataphract puffed up beside her, ready to take on the threats Cassandra threw our way. He did flinch a bit at seeing just how sharp the edges of Kleavor’s axes were, as the Bug Type opposite us waved them menacingly in our direction. We could only see that...
Indeed, they didn't know that she was underthreat, and kids can be dumb. Also, perhaps it was too oblique, but wI tried to hint that with some like the purple haired girl, that they still liked Nemona and thought she was good, but with the general attitude of the club against her, didn't want to...
...want another loss so soon. I'll beat you down and give you a proper losing streak to start off your time in the club, for however long you last."

"No no no!" Kai cried out as my Pokemon pushed his last two back. "Uhh Power Whip!" He desperately directed his Tangrowth.

I hadn't been lying when I said I was looking forward to my match with Carmine, but I was also a bit nervous. She's the only one out of the five of us who defeated her opponent. Sure, Cassandra is supposed to be the lowest ranked of the Elite Four, but still. Carmine is going to be a tough foe...

Nemona Glitterati
I wasn't ready for Cassandra to go completely quiet. I'd figured that she had some kind of pressure affecting her but watching her go totally silent was disturbing. She swayed ever so slightly and seemed shiftless. It was weird.
Then...
...was Goomy, firing off a weak, but focused Dragon Pulse. They're all learning so fast. Soon, we'll be ready to start taking down the League Club.

Eventually, they got tired, and after a few Heal Pulses from Athena and Anya to recover (and for them to get in some practice of that, very...

The discussion continued like that for quite some time, covering the little minutia needed to keep the Academy running properly.

"After ten-thousand years, I'm finally free!" I declared, pushing the doors to the conference room open and shoving my hands up in the air as...
I feel like I did set up some reasons as to why the loss realistically happened; Nemona was off-balance to start the fight, didn't know as much about Elsa as Elsa did about her, was less familiar with Double battles, Nemona having gotten complacent/distracted from her training, etc. but I can...
...Out of the corner of my eyes, I saw her smiling faintly. It might not be an answer to everything, but this moment right here, it's a start.

The good feelings left from that meeting faded away as I was left to stew in my own thoughts. Admittedly, hearing the kids point and whisper in the...
“Nemona,” A voice rang out across the canyon, and I snapped my head up to the unfortunately familiar sound. Stepping out from the shadows at the other end of the wooden bridge was Elsa Death in her pale League Club uniform. I feel deja vu for some reason.
Brushing a hand through her long hair...

What if a different Cassandra was part of the League Club?
Entering the League Club was always a breath of fresh air, and even more so at the moment, with none of the other members milling about, only the Elites and our Champion. The room was spacious enough, with lockers to one side, Macho...

.
A/N: So it took a fair bit to get things done but here's the second part of this battle/omake. It's a doozy but I had a lot of fun writing this crossover omake.
I'm not going to talk too much about things as I want to let the omake speak for itself but I did want to note that you'll start...
Yeah. As it's been pointed out on other sites, defeat or victory, it would look bad for them either way.
Haha, hadn't thought of it that way, but kinda, yup.
Yup, the bad first impression (and Atticus doing a piss poor job with the the second) really didn't help things.
And now, time for me...
...frosty from her (I liked to think she got along well with myself, however). Still, there was only one thing to do, and that was answer the call.

That's fair. Some of it is Nemona's home being very placid in comparison to other, more wild regions she's travelling through now, where the Pokemon are more likely to take offense easier, some of it are moments where Nemona actively seeks out a fight. There's a lot of more peaceful moments as...
POV - Phantasm
“Ready…” Of course I am, I was born ready!
“Set…” I’m on all fours, how much more set can I get? My claws dug into the soft earth beneath me.
“Go!” Nemona declared, dropping her arm down. With a leap, I bounded forward, soaring through the air and the first target ring. Hitting...
...how to use them properly. Honestly! I know Terastalization is new and all but I can’t believe people are still having this much trouble with it.

Why some people throw away perfectly good Revives, I have no idea, I thought to myself as I bent down to pick up another piece of litter...
...were thoughts for later though. For the moment, I just enjoyed watching how my precious new Dragon was handling the world for the first time.
