Work Text
The roar of the crowd as I battle in the stadium; sweat dripping, potions healing--
Reminds me of why I wanted to raise Pokémon; my Charizard looks back at me, wicked grin,
And nods his head, and I give the command, and our bond is unbreakable, and the lights
Inside of the gym are blinding, but like them, our future is bright;
Never any better feeling like victory, when the badge is pressed into my hand, and
Everyone tells me Congratulations, I can see how much your Pokémon trust you :
Racing to the next town, the next gym, getting stronger, faster, better— best.
