Author's Note: So, I recently go this idea and thought I'd float it past everyone. If anyone responds I'll do it again in the future, if not, not. I occasionally make little forum interludes for my Rattata fanfic (never a full chapter), and then it struck me that it would be a great idea to give people the opportunity to say what they think about the story by inserting themselves into the story as participants. In lieu of not having a template to riff off of, I'll just post the original post of an upcoming forum interlude I was planning, the one about Bruno vs Blaine. You can reply in the comments according to the following template if you want to be included in the forum. Don't worry too much about consistency and just say whatever comes to mind. I will find a way to include every comment, as long as its relevant to the thread. I will also be posting under pseudonyms in the comments if you write something funny enough ;)Reply template:

Kanto → Elite Four → ChallengesTopic: Bruno vs. Blaine

Original Poster: Curious bystander (League Illuminati member)

So, it's official. We've been eating good for the first time after several years. Lance challenging the Elite Four for a spot finally rattled things awake in this dusty Pryce era. He beat Bruno, and maybe because he's seeking a rematch, Bruno now wants to take Blaine's spot. It's unclear how that would actually work, as it could also just bump Lance to the position of third Elite Four member without having to re-challenge Bruno.

Regardless, Bruno vs. Blaine is going to be an absolute treat. Fighting types vs. fire types. No serious type advantages or disadvantages, just two of Kanto's five strongest trainers duking it out at the start of the Indigo conference. Live or on TV, no matter where you're watching from, strap in your seatbelts. What are your predictions for this battle, why is it happening, what will it lead to?

Bruno's known team: Machamp, Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee, Machoke, Hitmontop, Primeape, Heracross (Rumours has it he's been training up an Onix)

Blaine's known team: Arcanine, Magmar, Rapidash, Magcargo, Charizard, Typhlosion, Ninetails, Growlithe

Thread open to replies.

Blaine's older than sliced bread. But to be fair, so are Agatha and Pryce. When the three of them plus Oak ruled the Elite Four, it was peak era. Would be sad to see Blaine go, as it would leave only half of the Elite Four of my childhood, but sometimes you gotta shake things up. Also, to be honest, Bruno's sweat probably smells way better than Blaine's

►Friendly Ghost (Verified Youngster)

Realistically speaking Bruno has no chance, Blaine's been in his seat for too many years, he has too much experience. Also, Bruno challenged randomly without preparing just because he got salty over his loss to Lance. Impulsiveness does not a winner make. Also, how are fighting types going to win over fire types? Stay far away and get burned from a distance, get closer, get burned from up close. GG. Betting odds are on Blaine's side, and so am I. Easy money for anyone wanting to jump on the Blaine-wagon.

@Friendly Ghost thank you random youngster, I will heed your financial advice. Your wisdom is balsam to my soul. All my life's savings on Blaine please...

@Seatsniffer69 You had me in the first half, but I should have known from the name that it was just a setup for a shitty joke. Regardless, you're right, Bruno is younger and quite frankly just wants it more. Blaine's been talking about retiring for years now.

►Hitorhit (Verified Trainer)

Blaine doesn't stand a chance, Bruno went to my dad to exchange pointers, no chance he could lose now! My dad was walking kinda funny after though...

►Lil_Mouse (Verified Youngster)

@Hitorhit respectfully, flush yourself down a toilet

> Bugsforlife (Verified Trainer) It will be an interesting match to be sure, though it will likely be an uphill battle for Bruno. His team is primarily composed of physical power houses, burns are gonna be problematic for much of his team.

► FightingTypesRulez (Verified Youngster) @Friendly Ghost Blaine does not stand a chance. I mean, look at his scrawny arms. Only skin and bone I tell ya. I mean how much can he even bench??? Speaking about that, how much do YOU BENCH??!!!! HOW CAN YOUR POKEMON FIGHT IF YOU CANT???!!!!!!

Your dad too Hitorhit? I thought it was just a wrestling thing but now I am worried.

Dissmypokanddie Don’t do it last time I took finical advice from a youngster he convinced me to battle and sweeper my whole team before taking what was left in my wallet. Never makes bets on battles.

> GengarSupremacy (Verified Ghost Trainer) Bruno is clearly desperate, a team full of fighting types and he suddenly has an Onix he is training up? Could he be anymore obvious? Maybe if he stayed in his lane and stopped trying to win with a surprise type advantage he might have a chance. He's a Master of fighting types, not rock types, does he even know how to train an Onix lmaoooo

> BerryBandit (Verified Berry Sampler) @GengarSupremacy A trainer at his level wouldn't have an especially difficult time training an Onix. The resources available to him will certainly be beneficial too. Despite saying this, i can't claim to be particulairly impressed as well however. When commiting to being a Monotype trainer, one commits to finding ways to adapt to the inherit weaknesses of their chosen type. Altough i applaud his adaptability, i'm dissapointed he only thought to make these changes this late in his career...

► T-TarSupremacy (Verified Tyranitar) (Pseudo Trainer) (Verified Dark Specialist) @Friendly Ghost. I had a battle with Bruno right after his loss to Lance. While I did notice he was a little frustrated, honestly it seemed like he was more super focused and determined more the. He was frustrated. Considering this Blaine match I'm wiling to bet Bruno's match has more to do with preparing himself for stronger opponents. Considering how I heard he's been training with other fighting masters, I'm willing to bet he's only fighting Blaine to see where his training has taken him.

MEDA

feraligatr_best_starter (verified gym trainer) honestly I think Bruno can do it but I think he chooses the wrong Pokémon to train he only has those onix to cover his weaknesses to flying and to have something to hit hard against fire which he can already do with all the rock type moves his fighting types can learn like rock slide and stone edge and if he really did want to just beat Blaine then there plenty of better Pokémon that ether fit his mo or are just better rock types and he isn't limited to just kanto Pokémon he's right beside johto so he has more options examples for one's that fit his mo that deal with psychic and fire types are Poliwrath and Heracross. Better rock types included Golem(distortion world aka hell he could probably get the alolan variant he's rich),Rhydon/Rhyperior and Tyranitar(don't tell me he can't get one he's strong enough to get one in the wild and he specialise in fighting types plus he's rich just buy an egg) another option for psychic types that is faster than most of them is Dodrio and helps with ghosts another normal type that I think he should tran is Ursaring as it knows a bunch of dark type moves and with it's ability guts has literally zero fear of fire type moves burning it and out there pick I think is good because it fits his personality and style while also being a different type to deal with different situations and also knows a bunch of dark type moves is Granbull I know it strange but it's also a way to resist fire types because of its fairy typeing this concludes my POKÉ talk.... AND THE BEST OF ALL THESE OPTIONS NUMBER ONE IN THE WORLD ONLY ONE HE SHOULD HAVE IS FERALIGATR BABBBBBYYYYYYY!!!!!
