Ryan's POV
I was sitting in the Virbank City pokemon center, waiting for the hurt eevee to get healed up. It was December 15th and Christmas was super close! But, to be honest, I'll miss our Christmas musicals. Singing, playing music and generally having fun with Buddy and Bowtie Boy. We just had fun together every Christmas Eve, exchanged presents at night and then had a sleepover all in one day. "Ryan Stone? The eevee you turned in is feeling much better!" Nurse Joy approved, interrupting my thoughts. I sighed in relief. "You know, this eevee is very mentally scarred. Releasing it into the wild is a risky plan. You're a trainer right? Why don't you catch it?" "...I'd love to be eevee's trainer. Its friend." Eevee stared at me. I took a pokeball out of my bag. "What do ya say? Wanna join me on my journey?" "Vee!" It chirped happily. It touched my hand with its fluffy paw and nodded.
The pokeball touched eevee's head. It shook thrice and then it clicked. I sent it out. "Now, a nickname? How 'bout Jet?" I suggested. He nodded. I returned him to his pokeball. Don't worry Jet. I'll protect you. I thought. But first, I should train for my next gym battle.
Lida's POV
Just destroyed the gym trainers with Shock-Bot. During those battles, it even learned magnet bomb! I went to the pokemon center to heal my partners before I took on the gym leader. When I reached the poke-center, I was surprised by the lack of idiot. Where did Ryan run of to all of a sudden? "Hey Nurse Joy! Where's Ryan?" "He went to train at Virbank Complex" "What about the eevee?" "It was in a bad state and releasing it was dangerous so your friend caught it." "Awesome! He really wanted to catch an eevee too!" I healed my pokemon and went back in the gym.
There I was. Standing outside the door. What should I lead of with? What if I lose? Thoughts were flooding my head. While it may not look like it, I'm super nervous before something big. I may look social and confident, but I'm actually self-conscious and nervous. The only way I can win a tough battle is to strategize before it. I need to find the gym leader's lead. I run back to the pokemon center to use the PC. I looked up "Virbank City Gym Leader". After skipping the personal information, I found the team she uses on the trainer of each amount of gym badges. From none to 8. I immediately checked the team the gym leader uses against trainers that own one gym badge. Koffing, Grimer and Whirlepede. The format is 3-on-3. I think I'll use... Yeah! I know who I want to use.
I run back to the gym's door. I walked in. "Hey there! I'm Roxie, the gym leader! Are ya here to challenge this gym?" "Heck yeah!" She sent out Koffing and I sent out Barkster. "Venoshock" "Flame wheel"
Thanks to our training, Barkster easily avoided the venoshock and also landed the flame wheel which burned the opponent. Although it didn't one-shot, the burn damage KO'd anyways. She sent out grimer next. "Poison gas" "Flame wheel"
The flame wheel was so fast, that it produced warm wind, which made the poison useless before making impact and one-shoting. She sent out her ace, Whirlipede. "Venoshock" "Bite"
Before the bite could land, Barkster had already fainted. I sent out Blade. "Razor shell" "Poison gas"
Whirlipede lost half its hp, but it successfully poisoned Blade. "Aqua jet" "Venoshock"
Blade out-sped, but he still didn't KO. Venoshock always does double the damage when the opponent's poisoned, so my partner fainted. I can only use one more pokemon... HERE GOES NOTHING! I sent out Shock-Bot. "Finish it! Magnet bomb!" "Rollout"
Shock-Bot survived the Rollout and KO'd the whirlipede. Roxie congratulated me for winning, before giving me the toxic badge and the TM for venoshock.
I did it...

IT'S DONE AND IT'S SHORT. SORRY BUT GYM BATTLE CHAPTERS ARE SHORTER THAN OTHER CHAPTERS. I also wanted to finish this so I could start working on some Christmas specials.
