Sage stood before the entrance to Mt. Moon as the cave as the cave seemed scary but Sage wasn't about to back down as she wanted to catch that squirtle no matter the cost

Sage suddenly heard a familiar obnoxious laughter as she turned her head to the right and saw Blue who had an arrogant smirk on his face.

About time you showed up" Blue said with an exaggerated stretch as if he had been waiting for hours. 

I've been waiting in this miserable place for you so we could have our first battle so I can show you who's the superior trainer is" Blue said.

Sage raised an eyebrow as her competitive nature was already flaring.

You've been waiting for me?" Sage said as her voice sounded more amused than surprised. 

You really don't waste any time, do you?" Sage giggled.

Of course not. I've been training while searching the whole area for Team Rocket but I didn't find any traces of them here so it looks like it's just you and me" Blue said.

Well, that's good but don't think I'm going to take it easy on you just because you've been waiting" Sage said as she could feel her excitement growing.

i wouldn't want you to. I've been looking forward to this" Blue said arrogantly.

The challenge was clear as Blue was itching for a battle and Sage wasn't about to back down as she quickly sent out her Eevee as the little Pokémon looked eager and ready to face whatever came next. 

Blue frowned and sent out his Pidgeotto as the bird Pokémon flapped its wings with confidence.

Blue pointed his Rotom Phone at Eevee and scanned it as his eyes narrowed in slight surprise.

Eevee, huh? Where did you get this one? I didn't know you could catch one around here" Blue asked in half surprise and half annoyance as he was jealous his rival had a rare Pokemon.

What, jealous? I didn't know you were worried about my team or are you afraid that I might beat you" Sage said with a teasing smirk on her face.

Please. I just didn't think you'd have the guts to catch one of those cute little things since you know, they don't evolve as easily as you might think" Blue said

Let's focus on the battle, shall we?" Sage said.

Sage turned her attention back to Eevee as she said.

Use Swift!" Sage said.

Eevee's body glowed faintly as it summoned a flurry of star-shaped projectiles which shot toward Blue's Pidgeotto as the bird dodged quickly but some of the stars grazed its wings, forcing it to stumble a bit as Blue gritted his teeth as he was clearly irritated.

Alright, Pidgeotto use Gust!" Blue called out.

Pidgeotto flapped its wings fiercely as it began creating a strong gust of wind that pushed against Eevee and send it skidding back. 

Eevee stood firm as it had a look of determination as Sage could feel the bond between her and Eevee growing stronger.

Use Tackle!" Sage called out as she began seizing the moment.

Eevee lunged forward with a burst of speed and slammed into Pidgeotto knocking it off balance. Blue growled as he was impressed but frustrated.

Not bad but I'm not letting this go on much longer" Blue said.

Pidgeotto use Quick Attack!" Blue shouted.

Pidgeotto shot forward like a bullet as it hit Eevee with surprising speed as Sage winced as Eevee staggered back but the little Pokémon wasn't giving up.

Hang in there, Eevee! Use Sand Attack!" Sage ordered.

Eevee kicked up a cloud of sand which blinded Pidgeotto for a moment as the bird flapped it wings wildly as it was trying to clear its vision as Sage could see the opening she needed.

Eevee use Swift again!" Sage called out.

Eevee launched another barrage of stars at Pidgeotto and this time the attack landed with precision as Pidgeotto got hit and fainted as Blue cursed under his breath as his face was a mix of frustration and admiration.

Fine. You've earned this one but now its my turn to show you my strength," Blue said as recalled Pidgeotto back into its Poké Ball.

With a confident flick of his wrist, Blue tossed a second Poké Ball into the air as It burst open revealing his trusty Wartortle as its eyes flashed with determination.

This is it" Sage thought as she recalled Eevee back into its Poké Ball.

Sage's gaze hardened as she grabbed a new Poké Ball from her belt.

Charmeleon it's your turn" Sage said as she threw her Poké Ball revealing her starter Pokemon

Charmeleon huh? This is going to be interesting" Blue muttered.
