@gold@
"Thank you, Roark!" He smiled, looking at the Coal Badge with a smile. He turned to his two Pokemon. "What an amazing start! A new badge and Mudkip has gotten stronger! I mean... Marshtomp!"
@typhlosion@
He nodded. "Tyyyyyyyyyph!!!"
@marshtomp@
"Maaaaaaarsh~!" He sang.
@gold@
He sweatdropped. Although, I wish he outgrow his singing habit...

@roark@
"Oh, yes! As an added bonus..." Searching his pockets, Roark handed something else to Gold; a CD of sorts. "TM 76, Stealth Rock. It may be helpful for some of your Pokémon."

@ @ Boy obviously had a more powerful pokemon, yet he chooses his weakest and won in three straight battles. Heh, interesting human...

@gold@
"Thanks!" He smiled, looking at the TM.
He grinned at his two Pokemon. "All right... let's head to the Pokemon Center! Marshtomp needs a good rest!"
@marshtomp@
"Stoooooooooomp~!!!"

@roark@
"Yes, we should hurry there." Roark said with a nod. " I need my team ready, in case any other novices come by today, looking for a challenge..."
@cynthia@
"Ever thought about changing your novice lineup, Roark?" Cynthia mused with a chuckle.
@roark@
"Buh- of course not!" Roark said, as he folded his arms. "My novice lineup is as tough as it can get! No ifs, ands or buts about it!"
@cynthia@
"...well, whatever you say..." Cynthia muttered, before giving Gold a nod. "Well, shall we?"

@gold@
"Of course..." He said, holding up the Poke-ball and recalling Marshtomp. "Return!"
(TIME SKIP!)
Within the Pokemon Center...
@gold@
He was examining the badge he got while he waited for Marshtomp to be fully recovered... "It looks cool, huh?"
@typhlosion@
"Typh..." He nodded.
@gold@
He flicked a finger against it...
(DING! DING!)
@gold@
"Heh... and it can play a tune..." He smiled.

@roark@
"Pretty nifty, huh?" Roark chuckled, as he, too, waited for his own Pokémon to recover. "But just because you've beaten me, don't assume that the other Gym Leaders will be easy to beat!"
@cynthia@
"Well, with that Typhlosion of his, he'd do well against Gardenia, at least."
@roark@
"True, true..." Roark nodded. "...but even so, I know that he'd overstep his limits if he tried himself against Volkner."

@gold@
Volkner... Now that he thought about it... "Uh, Roark... this Volkner guy... how strong is he?"

@roark@ "You don't know?" Roark said in a surprised tone. "Volkner's the very strongest of Sinnoh's Gym Leaders! He's even a good friend of a member of the Elite Four!" "Yeah, him and Flint go way back, if I recall correctly." Cynthia chuckled. @roark@ "However, there hasn't been anyone who could give Volkner a proper match for quite some time..." Roark muttered. "He's gotten so bored with simple challenges, that he's thought of going up against the Elite Four, and Cynthia, to boot!" "And to be honest, if he really goes for it... he could win against us." Cynthia hummed, as she tapped her chin.

@gold@
"Man... no wonder that Prof. Rowan guy wants to bring him along..." He muttered.
@typhlosion@
"Typh..." Even he sounds impressed.
@gold@
"Uh, yeah... I think I'll skip Volkner..." He chuckled sheepishly. "So, uh... what Gardenia like?"

@cynthia@
"Grass-trainer." Cynthia said instantly. "And if you're willing to go up in freezing weather, you could have a chance against Candice; an Ice-trainer."
@roark@
"Then there's Maylene, who uses Fighting Pokémon, Wake, who uses Water, Fantina, who uses Ghost... and my father, Byron, who uses Steel." Roark finished.

@gold@
"I think I'll head to where Gardenia is..." He said. "Which is the best route to that town...?"

@roark@
"You'll just need to fly straight north." Roark said. "Eterna City is only a few Routes north of here... but you should know that Gardenia isn't the kind who'll just let people challenge her freely. She-"
@cynthia@
"You know..." Cynthia hummed, before she chuckled. "...I think I can put in a good word for Gold, so he won't have to go through that tedious test of hers."

"Tests? What sort of tests would she do?" He asked, blinking.

@cynthia@
"She'd force you to battle through all of her students before you would be allowed to face her." Cynthia said with a brief sigh. "But hey; you're talking to the Pokémon Champion of Sinnoh, here. I think I can persuade her to make an exception for you."

@gold@
He shrugged. "Well, if she refuse... then, this will give me a chance to train up my new Starly I've caught last night..."

@roark@
"Well, whatever the case, I wish you luck." Roark nodded, before glancing at Cynthia. "So, I take it that you'll be joining him?"
@cynthia@
"Well, I am curious to see how he'll fare against the rest of the Leaders..." Cynthia hummed, before scratching the back of her neck. "Sorry, but it looks like our mining session will have to wait."
@roark@
"Don't worry about it." Roark said with a smile. "Hey, when you have enough time, maybe I can get dad to come along for a dig?"
@cynthia@
"That sounds like a plan!" Cynthia chuckled, before glancing at Gold. "So, Eterna City's next. I hope you won't mind if I tag along?"

He rubbed the back of his head. "Uh... sure... that's fine..."
@typhlosion@
He gave her the thumbs up. "Tyyyyyyyyph!"

@cynthia@
"Splendid." Cynthia chuckled, before she went outside. "Just come outside when your Marshtomp's fully healed, and I'll show you the way to Eterna City."
@roark@
As Cynthia vanished outside, Roark sighed. "Man... for a Champion to be so casual... I don't suppose the Champion of Johto is like that, too?"

He frowned, glancing to one side. "...no... he's also the Champion of Kanto too..."
