At the Tournament

You arrive at the a large chamber created from granite and gravel with various pokemon looking on and cheering. You look on in awe from all of the pokemon that were coming from the area as a Rhyperior steps in front of you and asks "Are you a fighter?" You blink a few times and shake your head as you reply "No sir. I think I got lost from my friends." The large drill pokemon glares at you when a familiar voice calls out "It's all right! He's with me." You look over and see that it's Odie and the Rhypeiror sighs a bit "All right then Odie. Make sure you keep an eye on them!" The Grumpig nods a few times as he chuckles "Of course Flint. I'll be sure to watch them." You decide not to say anything and follow Odie as he asked "What happened? I thought you were at the back of the line." You sigh slightly and replied "I was lost in my memories..." You shake your head and added "I was lucky that I follow a Zebstrika's dust trail otherwise I wouldn't have found this place." Odie smiles as he hears that "Ah so you have ran into the zebra. So how was he?" You groaned a bit as you replied "Arrogant and obnoxious." The Grumpig nods as he leads you to the others as you along the entrants to see along with the Zebstrika, there are fifteen others. A Smarrot, a Venomoth, an Emboar, a Walrein, an Octillary, a Crawdaunt, an Electivire, a Drapion, a Bastiodon, a Tauros, a Herracross, an Infernape, a Kingdra, a Krookodile and an Archeops. You managed to make out that all of the entrants are male. You shrug a bit and decide to keep an eye on the Zebstrika.
