Punch Out!! x reader oneshots

"Why kicking?" [Dragon Chan x Reader]

(so self indulgent smh smh)

lmao this took me so long 😭
Y/N was pumped, tomorrow was their first fight in the Major Circuit after so long! They had heard of this fighter, the infamous cheater Dragon Chan. He was notorious for jumping on the ropes and kicking his opponents in fights.

"Are you ready for this, Y/N?" Their trainer asked, hyping them up. Y/N looked at him with an eager smile, and nodded. "You bet!" They answered, hitting the punching bag near them. "That's the spirit. Now remember, Dragon has a tricky fighting style, I mean- the guy kicks for crying out loud!" Their trainer jokes, earning a chuckle from Y/N.

"But seriously speaking, this guy's very- foul with his moves." Their trainer continued. "Even worse than Aran?" Y/N panted as they kept hitting the punching bag. "Well, not that bad. But he's up there." Their trainer leaned against the ropes of the ring. "Say, after this. Since you deserve it, Wanna go grab a bite?" He suggested. Y/N perked up at the offer. "I'm up for it! What are you offering?" They breathed out.

"Heard a new bakery opened, wanna see what they have to offer?" His mouth watered at the thought. "Sure, I'm down. But get me a bottle of water from my bag, please." Y/N sat down in a chair, wiping the sweat off their brow. Their trainer handed them a bottle, and they gulped it down. "I'm gonna change, then we'll go to that place." They stood up, and went to their locker to grab what they needed.

"So this is the place? Looks very nice!" The two stood in front of the bakery, small but looked very unique. The atmosphere felt very wholesome. Y/N opened the door, the bells above it ringing. "After you." They grinned at their trainer. He chuckled at their actions.

"Check those pastries out.. They look wonderful!" Their trainer nudged them and pointed at the desserts in the glass display. Y/N's mouth formed an 'O' shape and looked at the various desserts. "Well, go on. Pick whatever!" Y/N offered. "My treat." They continued as they moved to look at more sweets.

They bumped into someone in the process. "Oh, I'm terribly sorry!" Y/N stated as they looked at whoever they hit. "Watch where- " Y/N widened their eyes at the male. In a twisted string of fate, they had bumped into their future opponent. Dragon looked at them with a confused look.

"Are you okay?" He asked. "Wait. You're that- (Stage/Name) Fighter right?" He snapped his fingers as he recalled the name.
Y/N stood in place, and nodded. "Yeah. And you're the infamous Dragon Chan?" Dragon raised an eyebrow and chuckled. "Infamous? Let me guess, it's the kicking." Y/N laughed. "Yeah, You could say that."

"Anyways, love to stay and chat. But my order's here and my trainer's probably waiting for me outside." Dragon told them, and took the paper bag, before leaving cash as payment. "Oh, and (Stage/Name)?" Dragon called out to them. "I won't go easy on you tomorrow." Dragon's words got serious, before returning to a giddy tone. "But Good luck!" He walked out the doors.

Y/N shook their head as they processed what just happened. Not everyday do you meet your next opponent outside of the ring. "Was that Dragon? Didn't peg him to be a cake guy." The trainer noticed. "I thought he'd be repulsed at the thought of a pastry-" He continued. "Well- Now that that's out of the way, let's pick a dessert!" Their trainer said.

timeskip to tomorrow

Y/N was stretching and doing some warm-ups in preparation for the fight later, they were ecstatic to say the least. Their heart was pounding and they were ready for whatever was thrown at them. Now, they were doing some shadow boxing with an imaginary opponent.

After that, they went into the locker room to freshen up before the fight. Sure it's not gonna do anything, but they wanna feel fresh. "Are you seriously making yourself presentable? You're about to box." A voice behind them teased. Y/N turned around to be met with a pompous Dragon.
