(Yeah I think Blaze and Shadow should win lol. Give him some confidence for his gym battle right?)
Holiday called out in shock as she took the ember directly to the chest and fell towards the ground. "Holiday!" Peter called with worry, completely forgetting about the rules of Pokemon Battles, and ran out of the trainer box to catch her Pokemon. She cradled the injured Pikipek in her hands and looked over her. "Are you okay?" She asked with worry as she gently ran a finger over the singed feathers on Holiday's chest. "Pikiii!" Holiday nipped at Peter's fingers before flapping her wings to escape her hands, looking at Peter then over towards Blaze and his Pokemon. "O-Oh right... sorry...." Peter spoke sheepishly, rubbing the back of her head as her face heated up in embarrassment. "I didn't mean to uh..."

I'm good with that, though Blaze is going to lose the first gym challenge anyways. Could be another reality check for him and Treecko)
Blaze's face turned to confusion as he watched Peter run out of the trainer's box and cradle Holiday in her hands. "Uhh.." Blaze muttered, clearly confused as to what they were suppose to do next. "Ummm... Peter do you want to continue or do you think that's enough?" He called out to her.
Shadow smirked at his direct hit of Ember to Holiday's chest, though he turned his head sideways as he watched Holiday's trainer come out onto the field. Clearly, unsure as to what to do next, he stood there waiting to see if instruction came from Blaze.

Akai waited for Peter to react. Since this was just training, ending it now would be fine. If they wanted to continue that would also be fine. They were by the pokemon center after all. This had also been a good test of strategies and had shown holes in each others ideas. Over all he thought it had been a good session.

"Uh I...." Peter was flustered and didn't really know how to respond. She glanced to Holiday and saw that her Pokemon was very much ready to keep fighting. "We can keep going! I'm sorry!" She quickly backtracked till she was standing in the trainer's box. "Okay uh..." She scratched her head, too flustered to remember her strategy that she had thought up moments before.

Blaze felt a little uncomfortable battling if Peter wasn't prepared to help call out attacks for Holiday to use. He was a little afraid as to what could happen to Holiday if Peter couldn't think of something to use as a counter. "Peter, are you sure? I nor Shadow mind if we just end it here?" Blaze asked.
Although, Shadow wasn't entirely pleased with Blaze's words, he also would not attack a defenseless Pokemon if the trainer was having problems. He stood there, a little on guard, but watching Peter's flustered movements.

Peter frowned, not happy that she was holding up the battle. "No no... just... give me a moment." She called back, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. She closed her eyes and focused on taking some deep breaths, trying to calm herself down so she could focus on the battle. No not focus on the battle, battling made her anxious, but she needed to focus on Holiday. She needed to focus on helping Holiday get stronger. After a few moments of taking deep breaths and trying to focus her mind she opened her eyes. She looked and felt a lot calmer. "Okay! I'm ready! Thank you for letting me calm down!" She called to Blaze, knowing that any other trainer might not be so kind. "Holiday are you ready?" The tiny Pikipek called out in affirmation and looked eager to finish the battle, beating her tiny wings strongly so she stayed above the field and out of Shadow's reach. "Okay! Let's look out for that Ember move okay?"

Claudia was watching feeling for Peter as she ran onto the battlefield. She remembered doing that for cubone when she was hit with a tackle at her first gym battle. Claudia looked around spotting her pokemon sitting under the tree watching the battle with content. Claudia sighed as she went back to writing down what happens in the battle. Claudia watched on also taking personal notes of their fighting styles for future battles with Cin

Blaze nodded, understanding she was ready to continue battling. He smiled over at Shadow, who give him a smirk in return. "Alright Shadow, use Howl!" Blaze called, a small plan formulating in his head.
Shadow nodded and let out a large and long howl. Quickly, he could feel the strength growing inside of him, as his eyes set on Holiday.

(Think I'm gonna have Holiday learn Echoed Voice rn. That cool with you? Figured she was around level 4 or 5 when Peter first caught her.)
"Holiday we wanna be quick okay?" Peter called as she watched her Pokemon circle the Houndour. "Go back down for another Peck! Get away quick when you're done!" The Pikipek trilled in understanding and flapped her wings once before diving down towards Shadow, she opened her wings right before she hit the ground and zoomed right under the dog Pokemon, using Peck on one of his hind legs as she passed under him and right out the other side.

Yeah I'm cool with that)
Blaze smirked as he watched the Pikipek, he knew Peter would try for that attack again. He watched the movements that Holiday, memorizing the various different patterns she took during their battle. Shadow growled as took another peck from the bird and he was highly annoyed with its attack and fly away tactics.
Giving out a small breath, Blaze looked toward Shadow, trying to formulate another plan to keep Holiday on the ground. "Alright, Shadow wait until Holiday comes in for another attack and I want you to use Smog." This was the best he could come up with hoping poison would take effect in the Pikipek and keep it distracting from flying worrying about the poison damage.

"Good job!" Peter called to her Pokemon, glad her strategy seemed to be throwing Blaze off a little. "Now use Growl!" Holiday stayed hovering over Shadow, out of reach of his attacks, and growled at him. But it sounded weird and echoey. She trilled in confusion and looked at Peter. "Try it again!" Peter called, frowning as Holiday's growl wasn't working and sounded really weird. Holiday tried to growl a couple times in a row, circling above Shadow before suddenly a wave of sound erupted from her beak and went towards Shadow, bombarding his ears with Echoed Voice. "What was that?" Peter asked, glancing to the other trainers to see if they knew what move Holiday had just used.

Akai clapped "Nice! She learned a new move!" he went through his mental log of moves before saying "It's called Echoed Voice, a move that gets stronger each turn it is used in a row." it certainly had an interested use, if used correctly of course. The move was great in longer battles. Hopefully this would help her with her gym battle.

"Echoed Voice?" Peter scratched the side of her head as she looked up at Holiday. "Huh. Congrats on learning a new move Holiday!" She called to her Pokemon with a grin, deciding to let Blaze take his turn now.

Fantastic, now Holiday can attack from a distance.... Blaze thought, happy for Peter and Holiday a little, but also a little annoyed because now the battle got much harder for Shadow and himself. Letting out a sigh, Blaze glanced around the battlefield trying to find a leverage that would help him. Finding nothing, he decided a direct attack would be the only way to do so. "Shadow, use Ember!" Blaze yelled, recalling that Holiday didn't lower Shadow's attack stats.
Quickly, Shadow let go a small flame, directly at Holiday, only hoping that it hit the Pikipek, so the battle could end fast, so he could get his ears to stop ringing.

Holiday tried to dodge out of the way of the ember but it hit her in the wind and singed her feathers. She flapped her wings quickly to try and cool off the injury but the ember had left the little bird Pokemon burned. Peter gritted her teeth as she saw Holiday falter in her wing beats. "Use Echoed Voice again!" She called, hoping that the strengthening of the move would help her little Pokemon win. The Pikipek looked down at Shadow and let loose another sharp cry that assaulted the HJoundour's sensitive ears, it was about as strong this time as the last one as her burn lowered her attack.

Shadow took the attack head on, and began to shake his head, trying to rid himself of the ringing throughout his ears. He could barely hear anything that was going on and it was hard for him to hear Blaze call out moves. Blaze noticed that Shadow was trying to shake his head, and he quickly realized that he needed to end this once and for all. "SHADOW, USE EMBER!" Blaze yelled.
Although, he was feeling the effects of Echo Voice, Shadow formed another flame in his mouth, aiming it again at Holiday's chest, knowing that she would have trouble flying with her burned status.

You mentioned Blaze/Shadow winning the battle, I believe at the top of the page, though it could go either way in my opinion.)

Claudia had stopped writing as Holiday learned a new move feeling happy for the trainer as her pokemon got stronger. Claudia smiled softly as she watched the battle now more interested in the outcome for once than the science behind the pokemon's movements. Claudia felt herself smile a rare smile as she pushed up her glasses ignoring her notes eager to see how the pokemon used her newfound move and how Peter could use it to her advantage. Q noticed her trainer set down her pen for once and smile. She walked closer to her trainer and sat enjoying the fact that her trainer was enjoying the battle for the excitement of it rather than those funky words she uses a lot.

(Yeah they can win! xD)
"Dive!" Peter called to her Pokemon to dive under the Ember. She watched as her Pikipek folded her wings in and dove under the shot and towards the ground. She misjudged the distance though and opened her wings too late and practically slammed into the ground, kicking up some dust. When the dust cleared Holiday could be seen standing up and shaking her head against the impact with the ground, it seemed her burn was affecting her more than originally thought. "Holiday are you okay?" Peter asked her bird Pokemon. "Use growl!" She didn't want to have her take anymore damage. Holiday didn't bother trying to take to the sky again and looked at Shadow and growled at him.

Akai shifted, leaning forwards and watching with bated breath. The fight, even at such a low level, was simply fun to watch. As the dust cleared he spotted the small pokemon get up and shake out her feathers. The battle was getting close to an end, the bird pokemon couldn't get to the sky anymore which got rid of their upper hand. There was still a chance of Peter winning, but Akai couldn't really see it happening at this point. From experience however, he knew that counting a pokemon out before you had actually won was foolish. Akai had lost more than one battle because he had gotten over confident and cocky. He settled back down and waited to see how the battle would play out.

Claudia bit her lip as she watched the small bird pokemon hit the ground She glanced over her notes a moment and sighed as she realized it wouldn't take much more to knock the little pokemon out. she looked at shadow then at her notes. It is possible for holiday to win but with Peters experience level and Holidays injury it was not likely but this did put Blaze in a great place to end the battle in just a few more moves. Claudia sighed Statistically she gave the win to Shadow and Blaze but she still hoped that Holiday and Peter would figure it out. She glanced at Cin's Pokeball wondering if the little fire pokemon would enjoy a trainer battle. She had had fun fighting off the pokemon that had jumped out at her on the treck to this town and had gotten rather strong but she had yet to have an actual battle with her.

Blaze gave a sigh of relief when he noticed that Holiday was unlikely to continue to flying, which gave Shadow a bigger advantage, but taking cautious moves were the best strategy as he couldn't consider the battle won yet, as along as the Pikipek was still standing. He noticed fatigue coming off of Shadow as the Houndour was panting slightly. He knew the battle needed to end soon or risk tiring themselves out beyond battling.
"Shadow, circle Holiday, then use Smog," Blaze called out. Shadow nodded and charged the Pikipek before beginning to circle the pokemon at a jogging pace, while releasing an attack of poisonous gas around the bird. He understood his trainer's plan and hoped it would work as he wasn't sure how long he could keep this up.

“I should be able to arrange for that broadcast to be aired on tv and sent to PokePhones across the region simultaneously. Ensuring that everyone knows about it.” She clicked away on her keyboard again, “Thanks for the heads up, I’m sure the others will appreciate it as well. Don’t forget the Marmp Gym either, leaderless as it is.”

Okay ya'll I have gone through and deleted all inactive members! That leaves 6 of us! now i'll take a vote to see if you guys thing we should open up joining again or just keep the 6 members and condense characters into like 2 or three groups who are traveling to make it easier to rp with each other. You guys are welcome to make as many gym leaders as you want now! Remember you only have to rp the gym leader when a challenger is there or if certain plot things that require it but don't worry about rping your gym leaders till they are needed, think of them as NPCs you get to play okay? Same with Team Infinite Grunts and Commanders! The only characters you should be rping often are your Pokemon Trainers. Here's the characters that are currently in a traveling group: Peter, Akai, Blaze and Claudia Here's the characters that aren't in a traveling group: Cecil, Quinn, Aurora Now if you want we can shove all these characters together into a second group as they are relatively around the same levels or they can all meet up with Akai's group? I'd prefer the second group bc that would be a lot of trainers doing gym battles in one spot so it would get boring as everyone does their turn. So Sparkly and Rainwatcher and 𝚜𝚙𝚊𝚛𝚔𝚜𝚌𝚊𝚝𝚝𝚎𝚛 if you want your characters to meet up or something I would suggest Lushsong Forest as Quinn is already there and I think Aurora was heading there for her second gym badge if I'm correct. I can make another trainer for them to travel with too. But of course that is only if you all want to have your characters travel together.
