Andrew smiles softly, ending the call. He stands, picking up Pikachu who clings to his shoulder
Scene change pewter gym
The rocky battlefield stretches out under the Gym's dim lights, jagged stone pillars scattered across the field. Andrew steps forward with Pikachu on his shoulder, taking a steadying breath.
From the far side of the arena, a man with short, dark brown hair and a rugged build approaches. He wears a brown jacket and carries himself with the quiet confidence of someone who's battled here many times before.

Andrew watched as his charmander turned to him Dertmantion to stay in this battle clear in his eyes
Andrew ) frowned just for a moment no charmander still roaring to go
Forest) Onyx rock tomb
Counter dragon rage
Charmander unleashed a flurry of dragon-fire blasts, colliding with the falling rocks. The Gym filled with dust and noise, attacks clashing again and again.
What followed was a brutal exchange. Onix's sheer size and power gave it the upper hand, slamming the battlefield with its tail and shaking the ground with every move. But Charmander refused to back down, darting between attacks, countering with Dragon Rage and slashing with Metal Claw whenever an opening appeared.
As the clash dragged on, Andrew's heart pounded. Charmander was tiring, its breaths ragged, but the flame on its tail burned brighter than ever — a symbol of its fighting spirit.
Suddenly, Charmander roared as its body began to glow. A dazzling light engulfed the battlefield. Andrew shielded his eyes, realizing what was happening.
Andrew (voice breaking with joy):
"No way… Charmander… you're evolving!"
The light burst outward, and when it faded, standing in Charmander's place was a taller, fiercer Charmeleon, tail flame blazing with newfound strength. It let out a mighty roar, eyes sharp and determined.
Forest (grinning, impressed):
"So the bond between you two is that strong, huh? Then show me what that strength can do!"
Andrew (pumping his fist, his confidence renewed):
"Charmeleon, let's finish this! Dragon Rage — give it everything you've got!"
Charmeleon unleashed a powerful blast of energy, colliding with Onix's Rock Throw in an earth-shaking explosion. Smoke and dust filled the air.
When it cleared, Onix collapsed with a heavy crash, unable to continue.
Referee (raising his flag high):
"Onix is unable to battle! The winner is the challenger, Andrew!"
The Gym filled with the sound of applause from the small audience. Andrew stood frozen for a moment, staring at his Charmeleon, pride swelling in his chest. Pikachu cheered on his shoulder, and Charmeleon roared victoriously.
Forest (recalling Onix, smiling as he approached Andrew):
"You've got real talent, kid. That was an incredible first Gym battle. Take this Boulder Badge — you've earned it."
Andrew accepted the badge with trembling hands, his eyes shining. He looked at Charmeleon, who grinned fiercely back at him, and at Pikachu, who nuzzled his cheek proudly.
For the first time, Andrew truly felt like a Pokémon Trainer — and he knew this was only the beginning of his journey.
