     "Is it too much of a hassle for me to be here?" Maybe he should have scheduled some type of appointment. "I just wanted to check out the League for myself." Especially since he was never able to reach the doors as a trainer. “I won’t bother you. I’m just going to do what I came here to do.”

[hexdsortails]

  "Too late, already bothered." He was only half-serious, though, staring at the younger. Come to think of it, wasn't he a Gym Leader? "What did you come here to do anyways? Just have a look around? Kind of boring, if you ask me." Not that anyone did all that much. After all, there wasn't much that Grimsley didn't seem to find boring.

Some… What? Deoxys took the opportunity to take a double-take - it didn’t seem like there was anyone else around for him to be offering drinks to. Why offer it to some stranger, though, even it it was in its disguise?

It pointed to itself after a moment, furrowing its brow in confusion.

[ … Are you talking to me? ]

[hexdsortails]

  "No, I'm talking to the wall behind you." Sarcasm absolutely dripped from his words as he stared at the other, smirk on his lips, as it almost always was. After a bit he shook his head.

  "Yeah, I'm talking to you, now, is that a yes, or a no?" He gestured with the bottle, another glass already sitting beside him in case he was to be joined, though it was empty for now. He took a sip from his own share, waiting for an answer.

    “… Oh. I’m sorry, is this yours? I suppose I am in the way of the trash can…”

  "You are?" Sure enough, leaning to the side a bit to look behind her, he spotted the trash can. He let out a small 'hunh' at seeing it.

  "The second Alice was a fragile man of the diamond   The broken echo of the lies within demented words   He sang his twisted melodies to all in Wonderland   Creating the image of the sick and the disturbed."

  "Deadly, yet so beautiful, a voice just like a rose   Was shot by a madman, who silenced him to death   Single rose bloomed in his place, with no music composed   With twisted grin, this dying man lay   Breathing his last breath."

Ah! That determination in Grimsley’s eyes— This would be a good battle. Taking a step back, the Unovan King gave a sharp whistle. Hydreigon roared, the heat from the Flame Burst radiating through the room in waves. “A frontal attack, Grimsley? Albeit I trust Bisharp is fast on her feet, it is not the best tactic.”

Grimsley was a member of the Elite Four, and Ghetsis knew better than to forget that. Despite Bisharp having a type-diasdvantage to fire type moves, he was certain that the pokemon would get to her feet. However, he couldn’t give Grimsley any chance for counterattack.

Hydreigon flew to the side of the smoke— he knew as well as his trainer did, staying to wait and see if an attack hit was never a good idea. A roar left the dragon’s mouths— Damn. Bisharp had landed a partial hit, and Hydreigon was able to send that Flame Burst at point blank. “Fantastic, Bisharp! What they say about the pokemon of the Elite Four is more than true— I have not faced a pokemon with power like yours in a while.”

He nodded to Grimsley— “She is incredibly agile, you know. And although I may not be able to thrill you more than a gamble, you have certainly made my visit to the League worthwhile.”

[hexdsortails]

  Grimsley scowled lightly at seeing Hydreigon use that move, and also looked a bit curious. However, he quickly pushed it aside, knowing Bisharp would be able to at least absorb some of the heat Flame Burst gave off in her blades, and was glad to see her land even a bit of a hit. By the time the smoke cleared away, there was just Grimsley standing there, his Pokemon seeming to be nowhere to be found. Good, so she had the same thought as him. Not that he was really surprised. Him and the Dark/Steel-type were often to be found on a same page. He didn't even seem to be listening to Ghetsis as he called out the next attack.

  "Aerial Ace." Bisharp seemed to reveal herself, coming from above as she readied to strike. She made no noise, though they were both certian one of them would probably notice her. Grimsley at least hoped it would take enough time for her to at least get in close, and maybe land another attack, and he knew for a fact that whether she hit or missed, she would jump away quickly.

  He had actually contemplated using Guillotine, but that move only had 30% accuracy, and, though he could tell she was coming down fast, Hydreigon was quick as well, and would more than likely be able to dodge. It was better to go with something more reliable. She would also have to find just the right place to hit with that move, to make sure it did as it was supposed to, and he didn't think that would be a good idea. Maybe after a bit longer, if he could.

Headcanon (more of research maybe? I'm basing this off of New York, btw, since that's where Unova is based)-- Since Grimsley has had Sex Reassignment Surgery, he was able to fill out the required paperwork, and legally have his gender changed, which means all of his files have him as male, and he was issued a new birth certificate when he changed his name and gender.

"Hm. Does Alder scold you for such? Or does that imply that you have turned challengers away before and have kept it hidden from him? No matter…"

He noted the Bisharp— how could he not? She definitely had a battle cry. “No items, held or otherwise. I can agree to these terms. I, too, enjoy a good challenge. Is it not in the nature of the ambitious to always break through their previous limits?” This would be interesting. Considering the fact that this Bisharp seemed to have a very close connection with Grimsley—

Perhaps Grimsley had been through a similar past as the Harmonian King? No one was certain of Grimsley’s past. Except Grimsley, and he clearly never told anyone. 

"Hydreigon, descend!"

The large dual Dark-Dragon type had been exploring the higher levels of Grimsley’s room. With a roar, he hovered at his trainer’s side.

"Hydreigon, this is Grimsley and Bisharp. They are to be our opponents in battle today." A rumbling noise from the dragon’s throats made the King laugh— "Ah, Hydreigon, Grimsley has been kind enough to allow us this one on one. So, be on your best."

Nodding to Grimsley, the King flashed a genuine smile toward the other— “I do hope I will be able to provide more entertainment than a solo trip to a bar or a casino. And I am glad that I can meet upon even grounds with a trainer like you— Bisharp is fond of you, is she not?”

"Show me the strength that her heart possesses!"

[hexdsortails]

  Grimsley silently held out his hands a bit, and Bisharp tossed him the Sitrus Berry she held, the man catching it easily. He simply watch Ghetsis and the Dark/Dragon-type for a bit, his face impassive. After a few silent moments, he gave a smile of his own, though, unlike how Ghetsis' was genuine, Grimsley's was his usual mixture of a smirk.

  "There's nothing I can find that gives me the thrill of a good gamble. Not even battling. But, I guess I don't have much choice but to humor you, no?" He was quiet for a bit longer, before deciding to make a first move.

  "Bisharp, X-Scissor." The Pokemon complied, the blades on her arms glowing before she lunged at Hyderigon, determination in her eyes, Grimsley keeping a close eye on both Pokemon battling.

  His whole demeanor seemed to have changed as soon as he said those words, his eyes calculating, the smile wiped off his face, though it would probably come back once more soon enough. His hands reached into his pocket and pulled out a small coin, his fingers starting to toy with it a bit in a small habit he had formed. However, is attention stayed firmly on the battle.
