((For this match, we have agreed to a limit of 1 pokemon each to prevent the thread from being excessively long!))

Presenting herself to the stadium in her pretty pink princess esque dress, an enthusiastic looking Iris bounced onto the battlefield."It's a beautiful day for battle, and I feel beautiful too! Don't you agree, Draco?" Iris asked. "Ooo yeah~! You look cute enough to eat!" Draco replied, eliciting a little giggle from Iris. "I bet you would too. Cause you're an awesome dragon!" Iris replied rather light-heartedly. "And the cutest dragon, right?" Draco replied somewhat urgently. "--Right! I mean, Cynthia's Garchomp is so cute too--but I think you've got what it takes to be the cutest dragon ever!" Iris replied. "Gao!! And we'll be the cutest team ever!" Draco replied striking a flattering pose. Her tail had begun to leisurely wag at the praise. "Yeah! That's why I'm not afraid to take on any challenge or bet." Iris confidently remarked, making a rather brave statement. She wasn't afraid of anyone or anything!

[Coolshaymin]

There was a few things Yellow did not understand entering the Stadium. The main thing about it being is why Blue would invite Iris to prank her with kisses. She... did she not know about the incident with the... cave and the Regirock... She had never felt that-.... much of a personal bubble burst before, even around Blue who loved to see the extents she could tease the girl. Either way, being part of the Magical Girl Society meant being... not as detached from Iris, Yellow did not want to make family feel bad just to be part of it with Blue and learning more styles of magic to protect everyone. So, she only had one solution she could think of that might hurt. It wasn't her idea of one but others usually seem confident the main way to understand someone is in a Pokemon Battle.

And so the girl stepped up to the battlefield of Iris's, walking to place and standing, making sure to look her in the eyes... Okay, here it goes... "I like dresses! They are comfty and easy to wear!" Yellow declared... pausing for a moment as the Pikachu on her shoulder facepalmed... "Er, I mean, I Yellow of Viridian Forest challenge Iris for Champion of Dignity!" she reiterated... still messing up. "..... She challenges you to a One-on-One Pokemon battle, I will be her Pokemon," Randy corrected, standing in front... Sure, make the dog with girl problems fight for a girl having problems with a girl! Truth be told though he agreed mostly because he knew Yellow needed this fight and... he had to repay her protection somehow.

"R-Right! What Randy said!" Yellow agreed, this was clearly taking quite a bit out of her to do but-... This was the best idea she had for trying to overcome that... kiss in the caves all that time ago. No matter who wins or loses, Yellow just hoped this battling thing will actually give her the insight or whaever to pull through.

Yellow (Randy Technically) challenges Iris to a battle.

...Iris giggled while Draco attempted to grasp what Yellow was saying. "Yeah, dresses are pretty great~ ...So it's a battle for dignity, huh? I guess that means one of us is going to walk away without any." Iris suggestively remarked in a rather competitively sassy manner. "...That's so cool!!" Iris eagerly gushed after letting that thought hang in the air for a moment. "That really gets my heart pumping for this battle~! I didn't know you were tough!" Iris eagerly added in delight, oddly thrilled with what may have been considered a hostile premise to a lot of other people. "...What's dignity?" Draco awkwardly asked. "It's your pride! That means this isn't just a battle to win. It's a battle not to get humiliated! It's like a double challenge! That's really wicked~!" Iris enthusiastically replied. "Uh.. Okay!" Draco replied with a little shrug. "How are we going to humiliate her?" she went on to ask. Iris hesitated for a moment, just kinda blanching. " . . . I'unno!" she replied with a shrug of her arms. Draco scowled at this. "--What do you mean you don't know?? How can you be so excited for a fight you don't even know how you're going to win??" Draco angrily retorted. Iris flinched slightly. "That's kind of what makes it fun! I like it when people are rough! And I like it when things get intense. Sure maybe we'll lose and get our butts kicked, but not knowing gives us the opportunity to grow and learn!" Iris explained with stars in her eyes. "...Sounds to me like you just like getting spanked." Draco flatly replied with a note of contempt in her tone. Iris shifted into a more combative stance. "Bring it!" she replied, apparently taking the remark as a challenge. A bewildered Draco seemed to become furious. "Hey! What're you fighting me for?? We came here to fight other people!" Draco sorely replied. "...Oh yeah. Sorry, Draco. I guess I got a bit carried away." Iris relented, bashfully brushing her hand through her hair. "...Why don't you just eat her?" Draco lamely suggested. "...Are you... sure that's okay?" Iris hesitantly replied, seeming unsure of herself. "I'unno. It seems pretty intense to me. That's what you like, right?" Draco continued, giving Iris a skeptical look. "...Huh. I've never thought about it that way before." Iris mused aloud. She seemed to become curious about the idea now.

Iris eventually turned to Yellow, beaming at her. "Alright, I accept!" she replied, balling her fists. "Let's give it our all in a battle without restraint~! A battle we'll never forget!" Iris announced. pumping a fist into the air. "...Are we fighting a dog?" Draco asked. "Oh--Yeah. I mean, you are!" Iris awkwardly replied. "--Aww..! Beating up dogs isn't cute! I want to fight the human!" Draco whined in frustration. "It's okay. I think Randy might be the stronger opponent anyway." Iris explained. "Oh... Really??" Draco replied in mild disbelief.

...

Draco and Iris turn to address their opponents for the final time! "Let's do it!"

Draco then lunged forward, delivering a a barrage of lightning fast kicks that lead into one much stronger kick at the end, hopefully while Randy was overwhelmed by the previous onslaught!

"Gao!!" Draco competitively remarked, still a bit frustrated with the literal dog kicking going on here. Meanwhile Iris rushed at Yellow with a bright smile on her face. She then summoned a magical heart in her arms, pretty and ... lavender? A sparkly purple aura of powered hovered around the heart. It was love magic, but with a slight hint of Iris in it it seemed. You could do that?? The faded face of an unidentifiable dragon could be observed in the heart's midst if one were perceptive enough.  Iris tossed the heart at Yellow, using it to knock her over!

She then finished closing the distance and pounced, attempting to tackl Yellow down to the ground and pin her down underneath her! Her bright competitive smile made it clear she was very much enjoying herself. Could Yellow really learn to get along with a girl so rough and... handsy? Could she really learn to appreciate Iris' the way Iris' appreciated her?

Randy and Yellow looked at each other for a moment before Randy turned to face Yellow. "Good going, kid. Now she wants to humiliate us!" Randy barked rather pointedly. "I was nervous!" Yellow argued, looking with an intense blush. How did Iris even plan to win a match of dignity? Yellow certainly had no idea what to do in this situation... "Well, I guess we will just need to wing it... Our dignity is on the line now," Randy sighed. "... I'll think of something.... Just set the.... oddly human looking Pokemon up, okay?" the girl suggested. "..... I wish we had a better plan but here goes nothing... Glad my fighting style is already rather unorthodox..." the dog man relented as he turned around and got into a canine stance, ready to deal with what he got.

The dog breathed a bit deeply, really not wanting to fight a girl but now they were kind of locked in. The dog watched the girl rush at him for kicks... Really? Kicking a dog? Now that's just rude! The former rocket was... sadly use to this treatment and quickly dodged the blows and jumped back, let out a howl of a battlecry before turning around at the final blow before sticking his paws into the earth and literally flinging chunks of the arena at her eyes in an attempt to blind her. Well, it looks like he is a skilled dog at least before he turned on the spot and launched himself into a powerful headbutt at Draco at quite frankly very stunning speeds for a dog as he attempted to crash into her.

Yellow meanwhile was watching Iris run at her... What was she planning to-was that magic?!  Completely caught off guard, Yellow was blasted by the draconic love magic, flying backwards onto her back. That really hurt... Yellow looked up to see Iris pouncing at her. Nope! Don't want any of what Iris was throwing down or planning with that! With some really powerful fear induced adrenaline, Yellow pushed past the pain and rolled over to dodge Iris and get to her feet while the girl missed. "H-hey! Why are you attacking me?" Yellow uttered, her face getting a bit red, not really a clear sign as to why exactly. Well, guess this is a Double Battle... Which is not good because she can't back Randy up if Iris was attacking her.

"..... Well that's not a good sign..." Randy uttered, listening to the background of the fight... "... Well, she CAN hear my thoughts apparently..." Randy thought to himself, apparently having some form of plan. *Hey, Yellow, next time how about throwing your magic stuff at her yourself. You have some tricks too you know.* Yellow listened to Randy in her mind.... Oh right, she should try THAT next opportunity she gets.

Iris just kinda stopped for a moment, blinking in confusion. "Er... Everyone does it here!" Iris awkwardly explained, suddenly self-aware. "I guess after being attacked and fighting with so many people, I forgot it wasn't okay to attack humans." Iris awkwardly mused aloud.

((Draco bubble-shields Randy's Mud Slap!))

Meanwhile, Draco shielded her eyes from Randy's attack with her arms before deftly throwing herself out of the way.  "Gao!! Hold it!" Draco blurted out. She then turned on Iris. "Hey! Why am I the only one allowed to get hurt??" Draco sorely asked. Iris hesitated to respond. "This isn't fair! You're both just sitting there talking about me like I'm some kind of lesser race! I--I may be a monster, but that doesn't mean you can treat me this way!" Draco shouted, seething with anger. Her fists shook slightly with her rage and tears brimmed at the corner of her eyes. Yikes. A Team Plasma Grunt cheers from the stands, suddenly a lot more invested in this battle. "Y-Your world is full of racists!" Draco sorely added, spitting a glob of flames at the ground in outrage. It seemed like she might fly into a fury and attack them both at any moment. Iris disengaged from Yellow for a moment.

"...Sorry, Draco. I mean I don't think I'm better than any of my pokemon! And that includes you. But I was taught not to fight humans. You can't battle or catch humans in my world. We were always treated like we were above all that. ...i guess we were taught some really messed up lessons back in our world, huh? Nobody but Team Plasma ever tried to tell us that, but we just ignored them because they did something really stupid. But maybe they had a point! Maybe there are serious issues with the way we treat Pokemon. Seeing how much I accidentally hurt you with my words made me realize I wasn't free from blame either." Iris thoughtfully explained. Iris then turned her attention back to Yellow. "From now on, I'm going to strive to treat monsters as equals! The true path to becoming one with your pokemon is clear! That means I'm going to have to battle you and capture you, Yellow. Just like all my other closest friends." Iris enthusiastically remarked, beaming at Yellow. She now knew how she intended to humiliate her opponent. Yellow. Would. Be. HERS.

"Gao gao gao gao!" Draco blurted out, abruptly bumrushing Randy and flailing her fists angrily in his general direction!

And then, ... she... just kinda continued running right past him without even stopping to acknowledge the goofy, incompetent display she'd just put on? Randy had never been her real target. She was here to help Iris. This time, she was headed for Yellow. She drew her fist back, taking a deep breath and moving to strike Yellow with all the force of a hurricane! A sonic boom errupted around her fist as she broke the sound barrier with her punch, threatening to violently throw Yellow across the arena!

Draco then ran after Yellow, attempting ot grab her by the shoulders and hoist her up!

She then promptly attempted to drive her knee up into Yellow from below. ...Draco that would probably hurt a lot more if Yellow were a boy. You know she's not, right? ...Whatever. It still probably hurt a lot. She ptomptly did this again just for good measure.

She would then move to drop Yellow on the ground, only for Iris to rush to Yellow's aid! ...By tossing a love ball at her. "Careful, Draco! I think that may have been a little harsh. Nothing a little love and care can't fix, though~!" Iris cheerily remarked without any real regard for what she was doing.

Yellow kind of looked at Iris in confusion, still on the defensive. "... Iris, that isn't exactly what I meant-" the girl began, Randy couldn't defend her AND fight Draco, it was kind of unfair. Then Randy sat down as Draco began to get offended... Well, being from her world she guessed there wasn't much reason for her to understand... At least he assumed from how she talked as if this new. "Now, kid, that isn't exactly...." Randy began, though his words got caught in his throat as he looked up... Okay, she was pretty terrifying when he took a moment to try and talk to her and he did not get a chance to as Iris caught on.

"......." Yellow just had nothing to say. These were things she actually kind of agreed with and she had no arguement to them since, well, she didn't even like battling at all. She was only trying this because she wanted to try and understand Iris and now this just got out of control completely. "...." And then she kind of felt a bit of an immense heat in her face and a chill simultaneously. Oh how she wished she could turn back right now but there is no running from a trainer battle.

Randy just... Sidestepped the flailing in confusion, not really being smart enough to tell what Draco was trying to do... Until she blatantly ignored him and run at Yellow. "H-Hey! She can't even fight!" Randy tried to bark out but his voice was kind of weak. Come on, Randal! This was no time to be tongue tied around girls. Yellow was fairly agile and dexterous but nowhere near as much as an actual martial artist as she let out a big cry of pain at the punch as the wind was knocked out of her and it was a miracle if her bones did not get a massive hit from that as she flew and providing no means of resistance to the grab. She tried to struggle but she was way too winded by the punch and her body was aching in pain. This.... This is why she did not like fighting. Putting Pokemon through this pain, she hated it. She didn't have to get hit to know how painful it was but now her pain was too much as Randy seemed to actually cower at the blows a bit. Yellow's mental synch with him kind of causing them both pained reaction even if Yellow was the only one getting hurt.

Yellow fell to the ground, way too weak to move now. Her body and spirit pretty shattered right now as her breathing was rather unsteady. "... Iris..." Yellow tried to say something, she wanted to object but between the emotional, physical and spiritual pain right now, she could not muster the words as the ball hit her and fell to the ground as it took her in. It wobbled only once and very weakly at that as Yellow was in no condition to put up a struggle and the ball's grip was much stronger on her it seems... Though that would not really make a difference in her current state as the ball did the ding to note Yellow was captured.

"............" Randy just kind of backed up a bit. Yeah, Yellow being captured definitely killed his confidence and bravery quite a bit. Well, that went horribly wrong fast. ".... You captured my trainer, I guess that means you win, right? Properly won and... humiliated again..." Randy sighed. Yeah, Randy was not fighting two girls on his own, especially not with Yellow's powers filling him with the courage he needed so that means...

Iris has totally won.

Iris went to retrieve the ball, plucking it from the ground and giggling like a dork as she held it up to her face. She then thrust the pokeball into the air. "I did it! I caught Yellow." she announced, much to the confusion of the crowd. There were some mixed messages going on here heck... "Well, I guess this is better than kicking the actual dog around." Draco half-heartedly remarked. Oh yeah! The dog. Iris looked to Randy, observing that he didn't seem willing or able to fight without his trainer. Meandering over, she bent down to pat him on the head. "That's okay. What's a little moment of embarassment in the face of an eternity of friendship?" Iris asked rather light-heartedly. "You can come with us to take Yellow to the pokemon center if you want! I just have to register her in my pokedex first!" Iris began. She pulled out an aftermarket pokedex, which registered Yellow as an unknown species. She promptly named this species Yellow, entering a description that was basically just gushing about Yellow being cute for an entire paragraph. That very scientific process finished, Iris ran off to tend to her new pokemon's needs! Time to pay Nurse Joy a visit. Draco shrugged helplessly at the situation, fluttering off after Yellow at a leisurely pace. She could fly, apparently.
