[The camera has a nice view today, from here under this tree on Route 34. And it's showing... is that that lazy mage who only likes sleeping, actually attempting to train his Pokémon (well, for varying definitions of the word 'train') for once? Amazing.]
WAAAARGH!!
[...Specifically, said lazy mage just got sent flying back about ten feet by his Cleffa's Magical Leaf attack. But he's okay, really! He just needs to catch his breath for a moment, but he's fine! In fact, he pushes himself back up just a couple seconds after landing.]
Ahh... Didn't realize how strong that would be. That... really is impressive, Rose.
["Cleffa?" Rose runs over to his side, wondering if he's okay. She didn't mean to hurt him, after all.]
I'm fine, don't worry. Takes a lot more than that to kill me. And even if I wasn't, I'm the one who asked you to go all out, remember?
[And once he makes it back up to his feet, he turns toward his Ditto.]
All right, your turn, Elfy.
["Ditto!" And Elfy uses Transform... into a copy of Ryner. The original facefaults a little.]
...Er... do you have to turn into me? That makes me kinda nervous about this, actually...
[The copy of Ryner looks at the original with a bit of a pouty face. Elfy likes Ryner's form. ...Specifically his clothes, but.
And Ryner just gives up and sighs.]
...All right, fine, but just this once.
[And the two Ryners start sparring. It might be a bit hard to keep track of which is which, but the original is mostly dodging and avoiding landing any hits himself. Which is the point - he's trying to see Elfy's strength, not win the fight.
After about a minute or so of this, there is a yawn of "Sooooooool" from behind the Pokégear - guess who's the one who turned it on in the first place, and who now turns it off.
Video responses will come after the Ryners have finished their little sparring match (but feel free to run into them in the middle of it if you're in the area if you want).]
