Marnie (SwSh)

Obstagoon fainted before the team yell grunt, leaving him out of usable pokemon

"Unbelievable" said one of the team members, watching the fight unfold

"I know, I barely scratched that thing!"

Said the owner of the defeated pokemon. In front of them, was a healthy creature, commanded by a calm and collected individual

"Perhaps that'll teach you not to start a fight you're not sure you'll win"

Answered the combatant as he received payment for his victory. The crowd was in awe, all four pokemon had fainted to a single, powerful pokemon that wasn't even a legendary

"You don't have to rub it in" answered the man as he motioned the others to follow him

And so, they fled the bridge they confronted you in. Once gone, you pat your partner and healed it up

Just as you finished doing so, you were joined by another voice one much less irritating than those of the "thugs" you just fought

"I have never seen a fight like that. You're good"

You looked back to find a girl about your age in a pink dress under a leather jacket. There was something to her contrasting appearance that was somehow cute, yet something told you that you shouldn't take her lightly

"Or they're just bad at it. Either way, thank you"

She chuckled at this before nodding

"My name's Marnie. I came to help as soon as I heard there was something happening 'round here"

She then looked back at your pokemon, who was spacing out while you two talked

"But it seems that you already had it under control"

You laughed yourself before extending your hand

"Much appreciated, Marnie. I'm Y/N"

She shook your hand, a hint of a smile appeared on her face as she was pleased by your manners

"Although, I am curious. Why did you come to help?"

"You see, team Yell are well-intentioned, cheering for me and all that, but sometimes they take it a bit too far"

The way she said it made it sound as if she was ashamed of it, which was understandable, but she wasn't to blame for it either

"Cheering for you? Are you on your way to take down the gym leaders?"

She gave you an eager nod, remembering her own mission

"I am"

"I see, then they are a bunch of over-enthusiastic fans, then"

You shared a brief laugh at it. Marnie wasn't one to laugh often, and you weren't one to make jokes either... but it just happened

And it felt so natural for some reason

"That's a way to put it"

"So, what gym are you going to challenge?"

You asked while calling in your partner to your side

"I'm on my way to Hulbury to take on Nessa. Why?"

You placed your pokemon back in its ball and attached it to your belt once again

"Well, if you already have this fan base, that means you are good. I'd like to see that for myself"

She was taken back by the confidence with which you said it, and that smile didn't help either
