[Today's challenger to the Violet Gym seemed to be taking things a little too seriously--not many Trainers wore armor, presumably. But Lancer was of course not most trainers. He was a little less 'normal' than most even on a good day.]
[The video is turned on by Lancer and tossed to his sidelined Venomoth; he figured she'd be able to get a better view. His newly acquired Ponyta stands by his side, occasionally waving around a flaming tail. Judging by the scorched battlefield, the match has been going on for a while, and in fact Falkner is on his last Pokemon.]
We can still fly!
If you have time to talk like that, it would be better spent finishing this match. Let's go, Olldóiteán.
[Lancer's Houndoom sprinted past him onto the battlefield, snarling and spitting embers.]
Go, Honchkrow! [With a flash of light and a few scattered black feathers, Falkner's last Pokemon revealed itself as--]
...you're joking. Of all things, it had to be a raven? Johto really has a weird sense of humor.
[A sigh. Lancer crossed his arms, annoyed with this development.]
You know what to do. Take care of it.
[The battle started in a burst of flame and a flurry of wings...but it didn't last long. Soon enough, the camera cut out and came back on some time later in the Pokemon Center--Lancer flashed the Zephyr Badge at the camera with an arrogant grin.]
Still up for that match, Kiritsugu?
[The Ponyta stuck her head into frame, seemingly wondering just what this shiny thing was.]
...oh, and Rider, did you lose this little horse? I found her wandering around this morning.

Hm? Oh yeah, it translates to 'inferno'. I thought it'd make sense since she could breathe fire.
[video]
That is a very fitting name. Do you name your other Pokémons, too?
[video]
Yeah, I figured I may as well. Aigéan, Fragarach, and I think I might call this horse Liath Macha.
