Tristan:
As you make your way into the gym, you notice it has a certain charm for being a barn. The open arena has polished wood floors with a large Pokeball painted in the center of the arena, and someone is sweeping it from a previous battle. There are still a couple picnic benches on the far sides of the room, where a smattering of people are eating pie and excitedly talking about the previous battles.

"I can't believe Kylar managed to hang in there. I thought he was a goner for sure."

"Yeah, and how about that Magnemite clinging to life to finish it off? Ziggy sure did impress me, I didn't know he was a good battler."

"Hi there!" A young woman built like an ox approaches you with a friendly wave. She was wearing a white and yellow plaid button up shirt and long jeans and work boots. Her light brown hair was done into two pigtail braids. "I don't recognize you, which means you must not be from Pokane. I'm Heather, the gym leader here. Were you looking for a battle?"

As he peeked in, Byron came up behind him. The little Combee was holding something it had found on the road here, and was apparently just now letting him know. "What'd you find here, Byron?"

Tristan turned his attention away from the little Combee after pocketing the item he'd found. Someone was greeting him. She was folksy in her way, and shall we say... not sample size. But she seemed friendly, and if this was her Gym--she'd introduced herself as Heather--then she was doing a damn fine job running it by the looks of things.

"Hello there! Yes, I'm new in town, just got in yesterday," he replied to the greeting. "I'm, um, frankly not much of a battler," he admitted. "Contests are more my thing. But did I hear that Kylar and Ziggy battled you? Hometown heroes, eh?" he said with a smile. "Well, if they battled you, I suppose I'm going to have to. I hung out with them yesterday, and I bet if they heard I said no they'd probably make fun of me for a week! No promises, but I'll do my best."

"Oh, you know Ziggy and Kylar? Don't let them drag you into too much trouble," Heather says with a cheery wink. "The only contests I participate in are for pies, but if be happy to battle you." She can tell you're a little nervous. "Don't worry! You can always rebattle a gym if it doesn't work out.

Heather strides to the other end of the arena. The lights are dimmed and spotlights shine on the floor as music starts to play. "Go, Brie!" She throws out a Pokeball and a cow pops out.

Tristan chuckles a bit at the name. "Good choice in a name, Heather," he says with a smile. He's nervous, but she'd put him at ease somewhat. He should treat this like a Contest. The contestants just went... head to head. If he could get the small crowd's favor, he knew that would do a lot for his spirits, anyway.

Tristan straightened his collar and made sure his hair was perfect. He needed to put on a good show. It wasn't really the crowd that bothered him--he was used to those--he just was nervous about his skills as a battler. Would he make the right choices? Focus, Tristan. Just focus.

#Feel free to impose penalties if I'm not focused. I'm doing this to see how strategic of a choice Tristan will make. :D

Tristan:
After a couple deep breaths, you feel ready. You may not win, but you know you'll at least look composed and dignified.

The item Combee brought you was a X Special. Someone must have dropped it near the gym.

"Alright Brie, show him what you got!" Heather used Extra Ordinary, and the Miltank struts across the arena, looking like she didn't take the Turtwig very seriously.

Barnaby looked around the arena nervously. Miltank was advancing quickly and he felt both angry and scared that he didn't know what to do. Then, he heard Tristan's voice.

"You can do it Barnaby! Just concentrate! Start us out with a Tackle!"
