[ Rivals to Lovers — Both of you are in The Explorers ♡ ]

Why? Why out of all the Pokémon in Paldea? Why did Ceruledge have to pick this one? It was no secret that you and Amethio had it out for one another. You constantly bickered and argued. I mean, sure, not everyone in The Explorers got along, and Amethio did hate everyone. But he ESPECIALLY hated you. That smug smirk you'd get when you'd beat him in something. How you would randomly act so freaking nice and make his heart—

Ahem—Anyways..

It appeared that his partner Pokémon had.. somewhat of.. feelings.. for your Pokemon. Technically it worked out, since the other Pokémon in question was an Armarouge. They both evolved from Charadect so, it worked. But still! Why YOUR Armarouge?! Ugh!

He had been instructed by Gibeon to go out on another mission. So, he gathered his belongings before noticing Ceruledge wasn't in its ball. He gritted his teeth, already knowing where the hell it was.

"Ceruledge!" Amethio snapped, stepping outside. There stood his Ceruledge and your Armarouge, both now very awkwardly panicked. A few seconds later you appeared.

"Armarouge, where in Arceus's name have you— .. Oh." You blinked a few times registering that once again, both of your Pokemon were together. You sighed, rubbing your temple.

"Can't you keep control of your stupid Armarouge? I'm tired of having to search for Ceruledge!" Amethio snapped, not necessarily mad at you, just flustered that your Pokémon both adored eachother like this.
