Psychic vs. Fighting

The second Arceus Cup Gym Leader Tournament has reached the finals!

It's down to Korrina and Sabrina, and neither is backing down!

We won against the Fighting Dojo to claim the Saffron City Gym...

And now, I foresee our victory again. It's crystal clear!

I knew battling a Psychic-type user would be tough!

And that's exactly why...

winning this battle, together with Lucario... means so much to me!

I see...

I'm sorry, but we'll be winning this.

(It's no use. We can't get close!)

Lucario! Let's go all in!

Time to Mega Evolve and close the gap!

What?!

Yeah! A hit!

(The future I saw... Did it change?)

Alakazam! It's time we Mega Evolved too!

Both competitors have Mega Evolved! The battle is heating up!

(Skill-wise, it's almost an even match.)

(But if one has more experience Mega Evolving...)

Alakazam!

We did it, Lucario! Our comeback victory!

Maybe it isn't possible to fully predict what the future holds...

You're stronger than I expected. I admit defeat.

Heheh, thanks!

I'll treasure this memory forever!

Thanks to you too. You helped me realize something important.

I was so sure I'd win, since I had the advantage. Perhaps that's why I lost.

But we'll win next time!

Yeah! Next time we battle...

Oh, wait! I forgot!

What is it?

Our arc suits!

Neither of us awakened them!

I was so focused on the battle, I forgot that's why we were battling in the first place!

You're right. I forgot too.

Does this mean our bond with our Pokémon hasn't reached its potential?

The battle may be over, but it's a bit anticlimactic.

I know we just battled, but how about a rematch soon?

Of course!

Let's train up and give it another shot!

A few days later...

What should we do to beat Sabrina again?

I'm sure she'll come back even stronger.

And how can we deepen our bond, Lucario? And awaken my arc suit?

Hmm...

Do you need guidance of fate?

You must be...Olympia!
