[TOURNEY] Paige VS Storm

QUARTER-FINAL
Paige VS Storm
BATTLE COMMENCE

[paige]

She could do this. It would be very difficult, of course, to win this tournament. To show the world that yes, she could be just as good as her sister Erin. But she did not care how tough it was! She was the younger sister of Erin, who had conquered the Hoenn Elite Four. She had to live up to that example, had to show she wasn't just lagging behind. Besides that, if her skills were not all that up to par...well then, what would happen if Erin ever got in danger again? What would happen if she was at risk of getting hurt again?

Paige couldn't forgive herself, which was why she was going to give it her all in this tournament. Even if she didn't win, she would go out like a blazing star. She owed it to both herself and her sister to try her hardest. "Right Paige. Just don't mess up. Keep your concentration on the battle at all times and you'll do just fine," she assured herself, taking a few deep breaths. However, before long, her name was called, and taking one last deep breath, the girl stepped out into the battle area. She was all nerves, and almost felt like just shivering and running the heck out of there. But no. She could not disgrace herself like that. Instead, she offered up a shy smile to the ones watching the battle, as well as a tentative wave, before looking to her opponent.

It was a guy, an older one obviously, but that was to be expected. Who wouldn't be older than her, here? But even if he was older, she was not going to just lay down and let him win. No, she would win. With that thought, the girl took out one of the pokeballs she had been supplied with and tossed it forward. "Come out, Cryogonal!" the young girl ordered, the ice-type coming out of the ball. Then Paige turned her attention to the one she was to be fighting. "Good luck to you!" she called out to him.
