Did she feel bad about beating a kid that was about half her age? Absolutely. Did it diminish her first Pokémon battle and, by extension, first win? A little, yeah - as long as she was being honest with herself. On the outside, she did her best to remain calm though. "[color=EE82EE]Don't be discouraged. Sage just got a lucky hit. Keep training and some day you'll be on your own journey to take on the Evig gyms and Elite 4.[/color]" When Sage trotted over after the battle was over, she crouched and scritched the fur on his cheeks and behind his ears. "[color=EE82EE]You did great. But one easy fight doesn't mean they all will be,[/color]" she murmured to him. "[color=EE82EE]Though that was a good warm up, and soon we'll have more on our team to help us get stronger.[/color]" Sage yipped in response.

She looked over and watched the other battle nearby. It was a good way to see what other Pokémon she'd be putting Sage up against, and try to figure out a strategy for moving forward. One lucky hit didn't mean every fight would go that easily. Sage seemed to be better at fighting other normal types, and the odds were in her favor the kids would all have normal types, but that wasn't a guarantee. 

Like now. She knew only a little of the fox Pokémon summoned. A little more than just the pokédex entry, enough to know it wasn't normal type, but couldn't remember what type it actually was. It didn't matter; Sage was it and he'd face it just the same. But her Nickit was faster than the Rattata. That required a different strategy. 

"Sage, growl as fierce and loud as you can then kick up sand to distract it. Then hit it with a tackle." It wasn't likely to go as quickly as the first fight, considering Sage got a lucky hit, but hopefully it wouldn't drag out. But that was her basic strategy - distract and intimidate the Nickit into weaker attacks or missing all together, then go in for a hit.
