Pokémon: Student Way Of Life

Badges

"Come on (y/n)!" Nemona cheered on her friend as his Rhyhorn rammed into Roxanne's Geodude, knocking it out. It had been a week since he had lost this battle and now, during their second student council meeting, Nemona had pressured him into trying again. He was doing better this time.

Roxanne smiled as she returned her Geodude to its pokeball. "You're doing well" she spoke before throwing out her second pokemon. "Let's see if you can finish this" she spoke as her pokeball flew back into her hand.

"We'll see" (y/n) shook his head as he looked at his Rhyhorn, the Pokémon seemed to be handling the battle alright but it was also looking a bit tired. This battle needed to be ended quickly. "Geode, use Bulldoze!"

"You've been studying type advantages!" Nemona realized happily as she clapped her hands together rapidly. Rhyhorn quickly stomped down on the ground, shaking the floor and startling Selene out of her thoughts, knocking her to the floor since she was the only one who wasn't ready for this.

Nosepass made a worried noise as it tried to withstand the attack but it found itself falling over a second later. Nosepass wiggled around on its back, trying and failing to get back up as the attack continued.

Eventually the attack ended and Nosepass managed to get back up, although it was wobbly. (Y/n) glanced at his Pokédex and saw that its health was low. 

"Ice punch!" Roxanne was quick to yell once Nosepass had gotten up. The pokemon quickly did as it was told.

"Dodge it!" (Y/n) yelled a second too late. Because of the order Rhyhorn mostly made it out of the way but cried out as it found its side grazed by the super effective attack.

"Bulldoze!" (Y/n) quickly yelled again. At this close a range it knocked Nosepass out almost immediately. It also again knocked the unsuspecting Selene on her ass but the attack quickly ended a second later.

(Y/n) smiled as he realized he had defeated the Pokémon. His smile however quickly fell when he remembered that Juliana had told him that Roxanne swapped between using two pokemon and three pokemon when it came to her gym battles. He looked at her to see what she'd do.

Roxanne returned her fainted Pokémon to its ball before putting that away. She was about to grab the ball for her second Geodude when she looked at Rhyhorn again, it was on the verge of passing out. (Y/n) and Geode had tried so hard, it would be a shame to take this from them. And she hardly used her second Geodude in the gym anyways.

(Y/n) watched as Roxanne reached into a pocket in her jeans instead of for one of the pokeballs on her belt. He sighed in relief when she smiled and pulled out a gym badge.

(Y/n) returned Geode to its ball so it could rest as Roxanne walked over to him. "Congratulations. This is the stone badge, and it's all yours" she pinned it onto the boys shirt as she enjoyed the wide smile that forced its way onto his face. "This badge will raise your Pokémon's attack, enable you to use the HM cut, and make it so Pokémon caught or traded over level twenty will obey you" she spoke as her phone transferred eleven thousand dollars in to him for his victory.
