Ayako blinked, staring at the Rockodile. She broke out in a smile, feeling proud for being able to win against a Geodude. She nodded and looked at Eevee. "You ok to go on, Eevee?" she asked. Eevee nodded in reply.

"ROCKODILE, BITE!"
Its powerful jaws clamped on to the Pokemon

---

Eevee yelped, trying to squirm out of the jaws from the Pokemon. Ayako got a worried look on her face as she tried to think of something. "A-ah! Eevee...!" she said, panicking. A sudden idea filled her head, and she broke out into a smile. "Ah, Eevee, I know what you can do! Use shadow ball!" she yelled. Eevee slightly nodded, still trying to break free of the jaws one more time. When she couldn't, she gave up and started charging up for a shadow ball.

Rockodile fainted the second it touched him.
"No!!!" He yelled "STUPID DARK TYPE!!!"

Eevee blinked, realizing that the Rockodile had fainted. She quickly ran back up to Ayako and jumped into her arms. Ayako laughed, holding her Eevee tightly. "Way to go, Eevee!" she said.

"Ugh....here you go....." he handed her the Stone Badge.

---

Ayako stared at the man for a minute, then took the badge and brightly smiled. "Don't be so sad. We all have our wins and loses. I just got lucky, that's all." She said, being cheerful and trying to cheer the man up.

---

"I've lost plenty of times before, but never to a normal type....." He said, but then he perked up, "But, I see so much of my ULTRA-MANLY young self in you, so I'm proud of you."

---

Ayako slightly giggled, looking up at the man. "Ah, thank you...?" She said, a bit confused at first, but happy a minute later. She looked back at Seto. "So um..." she said.
