Was this guy serious? Challenge...her? Did this guy really think so little of her? She laughed loudly at the thought of that. It was hilarious, even if it made her furious. Did this Riolu not understand what he was getting into? First of all, she had the type advantage over him. Secondly, she could end his miserable life without even moving an inch, if she so wished. Whatever was going through this idiots head, she didn't care. She had just been challenged, and she wasn't going to back down from said challenge.

I've beaten everyone who has so much as even looked at me funny. I think I can handle myself."[/b] As she talked, she slowly began to focus her psychic energies. She wasn't as dumb as this Riolu seemed to think. Surviving took smarts, resourcefulness, and above all, hitting first.
