"Oh. That's fine. I know this one pokemon I can get here in Goldenrod, has been a dream Pokemon for me ever since I was a child." Skyler took Blazer's ball, a normal Pokeball, PK's ball, also a Normal Pokeball, and Brainiac's Ball, a Level Ball.
"I see you've met Kurt, too. He thanked me for getting the last of Team Rocket out of his town. I heard a whle back some kid from New Bark took out a huge section of Team Rocket. And even before that, the illustrious Red defeated Team ROcket in Kanto. I want to battle Red, to see who is the better trainer. I think in a years time I will go on a search for Red and battle him."
Skyler put the balls around his waist, and reached in his backpack for an item. Out rolled an Ultra Ball, scared and battered. A cold sweat ran down Skyler's neck, as he hoped the ball wouldn't open. He picked it up carefully and placed it in the bottom of his backpack.
"W-well then. I better get on over to the Game Corner. See if I can hit the slots. I almost have enough coins for the prize I want. Do you want to come with me?" Skyler said. At this point he was staring straight at Steel, waiting for a response.

"Alright. Thank you, Miss." Skyler said as he grabbed the water. He drank down the entire cup, parched from his Journey from Azalea Town to Goldenrod.
"After my three team members are done healing, I intend on adding the fourth member of my team to the roster. I heard I can get it right here in Goldenrod. I wonder if the Game Corner is still around..." Skyler said, looking directly at Steel. He then looked away, towards the back of the counter, waiting for the Nurse to return with his Pokemon.
"Which Pokemon do you intend on adding to your team, Steel?" Skyler said as he looked toward the back of the counter.

"An hour, huh? Well no wonder we're so tired." The light in Skyler's eyes went away as he recalled Blazer to his Pokeball. "We could go get something to eat, I guess. But first, we need to hit up a Pokemon Center, especially for Blazer. He's had a rough day. You're probably one of the strongest trainers I've fought so far. You make Falkner look like a punk, anyways." Skyler walked over to Steel and stood next to him for a moment, and then began to walk towards the Pokemon Center, signaling Steel to follow.
((Alright, seems fair. Sorry for any sort of disturbance or unfairness I might have caused in this))

( I did mention the fact that the earthquake attack was controlled, and focused around the battle; but alright... )
(The physics of Earthquakes is quite complex and remember, Goldenrod is a rather busy city. I just wanted to add a little something-something to the action) Sklyer recalled Brainiac. He took out a Pokeball and tossed it up, as a shocked and battered Blazer came out of the Ball. "Blazer, get this - use Ember!" And Blazer flipped the charcoal in his mouth as his back fires burned intensely. His eyes and Skyler's eyes glow an intense red as his Blaze activates, allowing him to create an intense fire that engulfs Kapp, and even melts some of the asphalt. Blazer's fire goes out after about 10 seconds, with him panting on the ground again.

Skyler ran over to Blazer as the ground he and Spyke heaved, throwing everything around. He threw himself over Blazer to protect him from falling debris, such as potted plants and a radio from someone's window. A red glow erupted from under Skyler as Blazer was recalled to his ball. When the shaking stopped, he looked at Spyke with anger in his eyes. "This is the first time Blazer had to be called out of a battle before. He reached to his side and tossed out a Pokeball. "This is my darling Brainiac!" He said. Brainiac looked around with a dumbfounded look on her face, but Skyler could tell she was ready to battle. "Brainiac! Disable Togepi's metronome, and follow with and then Yawn!" Skyler shouted as he put on earplugs.

The red glow of Skyler's eyes intensified. "Blazer, to the side!" Blazer dodged and dodged and dodged as Kapp spun around shooting water guns at him. When he was standing in front of Steel, he jumped in the air, wondering what Kapp would do. He came down hard with another quick attack, right into Kapp's forehead.

"Blazer, take the hit!" Skyler shouts. Blazer gets hit with a stream of water, and gets enraged. Skyler closes his eyes, inhales and exhales, and shouts again: "Blazer, roll up with a Quick Attack". And upon hitting the ground, Blazer ricochettes and flies at Kapp with full force.

"Steel! That's a cool name, especially for the name of the next person I beat! My name's Skyler Rilke. And here is my friend Blazer!" Skyler says. He throws a Pokeball high in the air, and catches its white underside as Blazer comes out of his Blazer. He lets out a battle cry and turns around. He looks at Kapp and Steel and lets off a huge blaze from his back.
"Looks like he's ready to rock! Let's go Blazer! Start this off with a Smokescreen!" Skyler closes his eyes and puts his fingers on his temples. He opens his eyes, and they begin to glow a slight reddish color as Blazer inhales, jumps, and lets a huge blast of smoke right in Kapp's face.

Sklyer imitates the 'face palm' in a reluctant manner, making sure Steel can meet eyes with him. He looks away immediately and says "That's good, I guess. Now I have an excuse to go train more. Maybe catch a new Pokemon on this here Route 35."
He turns around and begins to walk towards the street. Suddenly, it dawns on him: this trainer wants to battle Whitney as well.
"Hey you - what's your name? - I want to battle you! And the winner will decide who it is that battles Whitney first!" Skyler shouted. He began to run towards Steel in a somewhat awkward manner, and then took one of his Pokeballs from his waist. This one was giving off some intense heat, Skyler noted.

(I've read Pokemon Adventures, and I absolutely love it. I actually based to conception of Skyler on it a few years back.)
Skyler sauntered off of Route 34 with Blazer and PK running along side him.
"This is where the 3rd Gym is, boys! I think it's time for us to get another badge."
Blazer pointed his nose up at Skyler and made an odd growling noise. Skyler picked him up and asked what the problem was.
"Oh, I see. You think we need to train a bit more? Alright then. But first, let's head over to the Pokemon Center!" Skyler put Blazer back on the ground and began to run through the city. This place is HUGE! Skyler thought. Upon reaching the Pokemon Center, he, Blazer, and PK were winded. They rest up for a moment, and then make their way over to the Pokemon Center.
Skyler notices someone standing outside and begins to approach him. But instead of getting his attention, Skyler just stands over this person, who is much shorter than he is.

Please rate my team for battle subway doubles:
Garchomp @ Life Orb
Jolly nature, 252 Atk, 252 Spd, 4 HP
-Earthquake
-Dragon Claw*
-Rock Slide
-Brick Break/Swords Dance
I agree with you that Garchomp is a powerhouse. However, I feel this set can better use his massive attack and speed reserves. Life Orb raises the power of moves without keeping you locked to one move for the duration of the battle. This would be disastrous in the case where you used a move that was greatly resisted or not effective, such as EQ or the added Brick Break. Dragon Claw is a bit more viable than Outrage, due to the fact that it won't cause confusion, but Outrage is still a pretty good option. The choice between Brick Break and Swords Dance really depends on what you want this Garchomp to do. It can cover all of it's bases with Brick Break being a bit more reliable to handle Ice Types than Rock Slide, and can handle Reflect and Light Screen, which are somewhat prevalent in Battle Subway (at least, when I go down there they are). And if Garchomp is Zapdos's partner, covering Zapdos's bases wouldn't hurt either.
Zapdos @ Leftovers
Timid nature, 252 Sp.Atk, 252 Spd, 4 HP
-Discharge
-Heat Wave
-HP Ice/ HP Grass/ Substitute
-Roost
Zapdos is the only member of the team with the freedom to use any move at any time, and is a great partner to Garchomp because they resist each other's main moves. Together, they can take out most opposition before the other team even gets a chance to do significant damage. He also provides great paralysis support. Heat wave is used when Discharge is not viable, and HP Ice could be used to pick off dragons that outrage missed, HP Grass could get rid of water-ground types, and substitute could improve longevity. No problem here.
Typhlosion @ Air Ballon
Naive Nature, 252 Sp.Atk, 252 Spd, 4 HP
-Earthquake
-HP Grass / Substitute
-Focus Blast
-Fire Blast / Flamethrower
Typhlosion is my favorite pokemon. I have looked into its stats and movepool, and I have learned that Typhlosion nearly always benefits from having Earthquake in its set. Air Ballon can get rid of the prevalent ground type weakness that Typhlosion suffers, and Naive Nature prevents the loss of Attack while sacrificing some special defense. While this isn't the best option, Typhlosion is much bulkier in Special Defense than in Defense, so this risk is manageable. Now, the decision between HP Grass and Substitute, as well as Fire Blast and Flamethrower, depend on what you want: more Power or More assurance. With Substitute and Fire Blast, the odds 2HKO and OHKO goes up with the Blaze ability and the STAB on Fire Blast. 2HKOs and 3HKOs become common as well with Flamethrower and this strategy. HP Grass is dependent on whether you want Typhlosion to his Rock and Water Types hard as well. considering that this is Doubles, Zapdos and Typhlosion might have to stay apart in order for this to work out properly.
Blastoise @ Choice Scarf
Modest Nature 252 Sp.Atk, 252 Spd, 4 HP
-Water Spout
-Focus Blast/Signal Beam/ Grass Knot
-Ice Beam
-Hydro Pump
Blastoise is quite a curveball. He actually proves to be an excellent revenge killer, and the best part is, no one ever sees it coming. With choice scarf, Blastoise outspeeds nearly every pokemon in OU and deals MASSIVE damage with water spout. He is also not often targeted because Typhlosion appears to be a more imminent threat, so he can maintain his health and water spout's power. Paired up with Typhlosion's eruption, opposing pokemon are carried from the battlefield in pairs. Grass Knot, just in case you need to help protect Typhlosion. The two can work wonders in Conjunction.
This is quite a powerful team. I just put my own edits that I would make in as bolded.

Name: Skyler Rilke
Age: 14
Gender: Male
Personality: Skyler is a rather odd character. He is fond of eating, especially spicy foods, yet maintains his slim physique due to an overactive metabolism and his constant, sometimes annoying level of thinking. He likes to think a lot and read a lot, but his behavior wouldn't necessarily show this. He is hyperactive and forgets to think about how his actions will effect others around him. But he is a kindhearted boy, only becoming mean when he feels the need to defend himself, on a personal level, or to protect his friends. He cares very deeply for his Pokemon, especially his first, a Quilava named Blazer. He got Blazer as a Cyndaquil from his mom as a birthday gift so he could begin his journey. Due to his fondness of his Pokemon and his ease at communicating with them - a skill that he can't apply to relationships with people for some reason - he is an incredibly adept battler, having gotten his badges from Falkner and Bugsy in very short periods of time. While he likes to collect pokemon, and shows them all affection deserving of pets, he is somewhat choosy as to the pokemon he will let on his battling team. He seems to know which pokemon have the characteristics (such as nature, movesets, and IVs) that he needs based off of meeting them. And thus, when he does talk about pokemon, he can list wide ranges of information about them just from an inspection of their behavior.
Appearance: Skyler is a very tall 14 year old, being around 5'8". He has rough, spiky black hair, and a slight tan due to his constant working outside. He is very lanky, although he prefers the term slender, as he is a healthy sort of lean. He wears a black jacket with a red shirt underneath, and white running shoes. He has a pokeball around his neck. Many suspect there is a pokemon inside of it, as he gets very scared when he loses it. He says that if it were to fall into the wrong hands, the unspeakable would occur. As such, he doesn't want anyone to touch it.He has learned a great deal about pokeballs so he could lock it, and only he can unlock it. He also has a long scar along his chest, as well as a smaller one on his left cheek. He hints that the pokeball that he keeps locked all the time might be related to it. He also has a greyish-blue backpack which he carries round various items such as potions, food, toys, and supplies for catching pokemon.
Other: His special ability could thus be classified as something akin to N's, although he has yet meet N. A big difference in the two, however, this that Skyler can synch minds with his pokemon in battle, giving them commands very fluidly. Skyler is also vastly interested in using astronomy as a means of navigation as well as time telling. Skyler also is somewhat technologically savvy, as he knows the inner workings of a pokeball enough to have locked one. He seems to be able to learn vast, and has a very large store of knowledge, but he lacks in his ability to communicate with people properly.
Equipment:
1x Backpack
10x Pokeballs
6x Super Potions
12x Potions
6x Revives
1x Pokegear
Team:
- "Blazer" Quilava - Male - Rash - Blazer was Skyler's first Pokemon he befriended. Blazer and Skyler and Inseparable. They are the best of friends, having been through thick and thin making al the way from their little residence on the outskirts of New Bark Town, all the way to Goldenrod City. Blazer is one of Skyler's strongest pokemon - although the pool isn't too big considering he only has three pokemon upon reaching Goldenbark), know very powerful moves capable of felling some of the strongest opponents. He is level 20 upon reaching Goldenbark.
- "Brainiac" Slowpoke - Female - Calm - Brainiac was Skyler's second caught Pokemon, and his third overall. Skyler called her Brainiac because when Team Rocket took over Slowpoke Well, she was very crafty in helping him rid the well of their presence. She hid in a crevice, combining Yawn with the echoing nature of the well to cause most of the the poeple (and pokemon) to fall asleep. He caught her, and used her in his battles to get rid of anyone who hadn't fallen asleep. She his very sweet, showing great affection to Skyler, although she can be rather slow to react to some of his commands in battle. She is level 18 upon reaching Goldenrod.
- "PKThunder", often shortened to PK, Pikachu - Male - Hasty - PKThunder was Skyler's second pokemon. However, he hatched from an egg as a Pichu. Skyler and Blazer were marching along their path when Skyler got a call from his mother. He said that Professor Elm, who had taught Skyler about Pokemon when Skyler was younger, decided to send a Aide of his to Cherrygrove with a Pokemon egg. This egg was an odd, orangish color but had the markings of a Pichu. When it hatched, shortly before arrival in Violet City, it turned out to be a shiny Pichu. PK is also very powerful, knowing Thunder Bolt, Nasty Plot, and Thunder Wave. However, PK appears not to think about every action he makes, and sometimes gets himself into jams that Skyler must save himself. Skyler attributes this to PK being a baby, being only 11 days old upon reaching Goldenrod. He is also level 19.
- Skyler implies that he might have a fourth pokemon, but is much too afraid of it to use it.

Too be honest, I think the hoenn starters were the best and Blaziken's cool, but I like Sceptile and Swampert better. I think you should just give up on this whole Blaziken thing and just become a Swampert fan instead, he's much cooler.
I hope you've realized what you have done. I do agree that some of the pokemon are somewhat lazy in their designs, but not based off their looks. I think that there are too many Fire/Fight types in this game. It was awesome when they brought it in with Torchic's line, and Chimchar's line ran it pretty nicely as well (although, I'm probably going to die for saying that). But Tepig's line could have been Fire/Ground or Fire/Dark. I don't like the typing, is what I am saying. I love Typhlosion. He's my favorite (the Blazer, in Skyler and Blazer, is a Typhlosion from comics that I used t make, somewhat unsuccessfully) a few years ago on this site. I am upset at how he hasn't been given some of the best moves and updates as the games come out, but he will remain my favorite for as long as I play this game. I haven't played pokemon in quite some time now, actually, having been busy with school and such. But this seems like an interesting discussion. While yeah, this is a rather subjective and opinionated topic, I do think it is orth talking about because I feel that many of the pokemon games that I have played fit into a definition of art. I know there is this whole debate that might not end as to whether or not video games are art, but if you've played these Pokemon games and their spin-offs, it'd be hard to argue that they aren't. I happen to like Dugtrio a lot. It is (they are?) pretty fast and strong, and can run some intense moves like Slash and Earthquake. The design is pretty simple but ingenious at the same time, in my opinion. I can't think of too many pokemon whose designs I don't like.

I realized that Pokemon is what was missing from my life, and upon playing it again, I feel great!
