Zacharias watched the match between Alice and Thomas with interest, the match up resulting in a seemingly one-sided match up. The end result, of course, was interesting. 'A great use of the environment. I'll need to keep that in mind with her, if we battle she's not afraid to use everything at her disposal.'  Thinking for a moment, Zach stood to prepare for his own battle.

Walking towards the roped off arena area, Zach waved at the passing Alice, smiling as he walked by. "That was a good match, I hope we get a chance to battle." Before she could reply, though, the referee began waving his arms.

"Beatrix Loren and Zacharias Mann! Please get ready for your match!" Still smiling, the teen nodded his head to Alice before going to his side of the arena, picking out the Pokemon he would be using.
