CHAMPION CENRIC wants to battle!

Battle Theme ryoshima plains

Battle Intro“I... can’t say I expected to see you here, of all people. Still, this should prove to be a promising battle. Please, give it your all. As will I.”

Victory“... Thank you, for offering a challenge.”

Defeat“I... uh. I admit, I wasn’t expecting that, either.”

Assist“Step back. I know what to do.”

Taunt“I thought I said to give it your all? It would be a shame if this is all a Tower Tycoon can muster Please try a little harder.”

Reacting to Taunt:“... I’m sorry, what was that?”

Tie:“An outcome I’m sure neither of us predicted, but I’m sure I can speak for the both of us when I say it was an enjoyable fight. Perhaps you would like to settle the score another time?”

Perfect Victory:“... Would you like me to show you the way out?”

#006 Charizard - Loves to battle, and spends a great amount of time training or looking for opponents. If Charizard becomes furious, the flame at the tip of its tail flares up in a whitish-blue color. Charizard’s fire is hot enough to melt boulders, and is known to have unintentionally caused massive forest fires. The more experienced a Charizard, the more intense its tail flame and breath are.

“Excuse me, do you allow league members to battle here?”

Lips pressed together in a thin line as he sported a look of mild interest, the question was directed at the man who Cenric believed to be in charge of the battling establishment, having tracked him down in the Battle Tower after what felt like an eternity of exploring the building.

A surprisingly feisty looking Dragonite at his side let out an odd chirp of determination, as though she was ready to take on any opponent right then and there, though he quickly brought a hand up in order to silence the dragon-type, lest she cause more fuss than necessary.

“Admittedly... I’m interested in taking part. I’ve never done something like this before, but...”

His words trailed off, followed by a gentle shrug of his shoulders as he reached up to scratch at the back of his neck. It always felt wrong saying such things, almost like he was bragging -- something which never failed to leave a bad taste in his mouth. But at the same time, he felt as though he had to be clear, so there was no room for misunderstandings.

“It’s been a while since I’ve genuinely struggled, during battles. I was hoping the trainers here... perhaps even yourself, might change that.”

@mvvnraker

Squinting slightly as he peered down at a boldly blue frog-like pokémon at a stranger’s side, Cenric’s brows knit together tightly in confusion.

How strange would it sound to hear that a Champion, of all people, was unfamiliar with a certain breed of pokémon? Having only branched out to Johto and Hoenn in his time, anything found outside of the three regions he was familiar with remained a total mystery. Whatever it was, it certainly wasn’t native to any of the three, nor a popular choice for trainers who visited from outside of Kanto, apparently.

He could kind of see why. The thing was a little... grotesque. Cenric wasn’t sure if he even wanted to know what the sac-like spheres adorning the (assumed) water-type’s body were even for, but it was oddly charming all the same.

Glancing up, Cenric turned his attention to the boy who must have been the pokémon’s trainer. He’d been staring at the poor thing for a good few minutes now... Might as well offer up an explanation of sorts, and maybe try and find out more about the creature in the process.

“Ah... Could you tell me what kind of pokémon this is? I’ve never seen one before, so it’s rather... interesting.”

While most of his time spent holding the title of Champion was admittedly spent lingering around the Indigo League’s headquarters and doing absolutely nothing, Cenric still felt a certain sense of responsibility when it came to the Elites and Gym Leaders who -- as far as he was concerned -- fell under his care.

Not too long into his reign, a certain routine was put in place. At the end of each month, Cenric would take the time to visit the Gyms dotted around Kanto, to make sure everything was running as smoothly as possible. Not because he was strict, but more out of concern.

The very least he could do was make sure everyone was comfortable in their jobs, after all.

And so, this routine was the reasoning behind his sudden arrival to Saffron City’s Gym, a Swellow by his side and what appeared to be a parcel of cookies cradled in his left arm as he pushed open the doors to the psychic trainer’s lair.

“Reina, are you here? I brought snacks...”

@crxsswhite

Why was he left to navigate Unova all alone, again?

There was nothing about this that was a good idea. Having arrived in the foreign region due to ‘champion business’ -- that being the only thing deemed worthy enough of a reason for him to leave Kanto, these days -- after having met with an Unovan league representative and informed that the regions champion wasn’t even present right now, Cenric had ultimately been left to his own devices. 

Figuring a spot of exploration would help pass the time, the Champion found himself in one Icirrus City, lingering near the opening of the local pokémon center with Charlemagne, his Charizard, at his side.

Naturally, the entire region was completely new to him. As much as he’d like to visit the city’s most notable destinations, he had no idea where to even begin, and as reluctant as he may have been, it seemed that asking for assistance was his only option.

“Excuse me,” he called, voice soft as he lifted a hand to wave down the next stranger who passed. Looking painfully bored, the Charizard let out a gentle breath of flame with the sudden arrival. “Do you know where I can get a map, of some sorts?”
