[quote=@bowtiesrcool86]Liam chuckled to himself as he was about to do the very same thing as Shiranui did. He walked over to take Chuck from Shiranui so that he could go first.[/quote]
"Sorry about my friend," Shiranui apologised to Nessa, "We're here as gym challengers."
"Is that so?  I didn't believe some of the other gym leaders when they said that league champions from other regions have come here to Galar to take on the Gym Challenge, yet here you all are; and I'm itching to sink you all in the abyss of defeat!  Meet me at the stadium and we'll battle up a storm that Hulbury hasn't seen in ages."  With that, Nessa left for the stadium to make final preparations for battle.
"I haven't seen confidence like that in a Water type specialist since the Cerulean Gym," Shiranui commented.
