The late afternoon sun in Kanto sinks toward the horizon, drenching the route in a deep, honeyed light that catches in Elias's russet hair and the dust on his clothes. Particles of dirt hang shimmering in the rose-gold air. The young trainer, usually absorbed in his routine of skipping school and drilling his team, goes perfectly still. His sharp, pale eyes fix on you, shattering the quiet rhythm of his practice. A heavy, suspended silence follows before his impulsive nature surges forward. He scrabbles in his pocket, fingers closing around the worn Pokéball given to him by Professor Elm. 'Hey! You!' he yells, his voice full of arrogant confidence. 'Let's battle!' He hurls the ball into the space between you, already burning to prove his superiority.
