She adjusts her glasses.
"Let's just say I have an eye for these things. Anyways, I need help with a 2v2 double battle. The move combo I'm trying to show off requires me to use 2 pokemon. As this is just a demonstration, we won't be using any trainer items, of course, but held items are fine. Is that agreeable?"

Ace Trainer Alexis perks up as soon as Kogeki walks up to her.
"Really, you want a battle? Oh, HECK YES!!! I have been waiting ALL. DAY. FOR. ONE. WOOHOO!"
Naturally, that enthusiasm gets her an admonishing look from the teacher, who's still in the middle of his lecture on Status Ailments. Alexis coughs and quietly apologizes. "...sorry, teach..."
He dismisses her from the class so she can go train. Whether it's for her benefit or for the class's is anyone's guess, though...
That doesn't seem to dampen Alexis's mood any, though! "Alright, so you want to do a Double Battle, yeah? How many pokemon do you want to use? Should we allow trainer items? Four move limit? Should we wager anything? I'm honestly cool with any rules you want to use. I don't care what ruleset we use, just so long as I get to finally have a good fight!"
How generous of her.

Oh, THAT was fast, somehow Kee doesn't manage to shake off the thought that the current Nurse Joy in duty simply did this to get rid of him as fast as possible. (¬_¬ ) He feels SO threathened to give her another unamused look from the side, but as if the Faeeveelution has picked up on that, she immediately greets him by crashing into him full-heartedly and therefor almost knocking him to the ground. "Octavia, I told you to be please not be that fierce with your affection.... But yes, I'm delighted to see you up and about again too." Once she has cherished and savoured the strokes she receives from her much beloved and only-one caretaker, she wraps her sparkling ribbons around one of Kee's arms to join and follow wherever he is about to go. Draven's staying out either way, even takes it as the blue feline companion as she offers the tip of another ribbon for him to shake - he may appear envious and dismissive towards her for snatching all the attention and care from Kee, but deep down he knows that he does not favour one over the other - she's just more showing and open with her liking for Master, while he prefers to enjoy it in silence and use it to foster his ego.
What a nice and fitting name for a bar, and a darker atmosphere is kinda what he'd have looked out for - they are usually the best ones, aren't as crowded like the mainstream-ones and play the better music in his view. If Pokemon are allowed inside, Octavia and Draven stay out per default and take a seat at the counter by their Master.
She is also the first one to react to that Roughneck over-obviously up to mess with the small group, immediately and intuitively hissing at him which causes Kee to to abstain from his desire to simply ignore that guy completely. Giving a gentle stroke for his Sylveon, he simultaneously gives that Roughneck a sharp and unimpressed look as he doesn not flinch away an inch from them. "Pointless question there buddy, because since when is it not allowed to attend a bar for one or two drinks? *cue sarcastic tone of voice* If this is your turf, then I am soooooo sorry for having overseen the sign by the door that says so, maybe you should go outside and fix it instead of throwing questions at me which's answer you're probably only interested to have to use 'em against me."
(Ohhh, that's how free Encounters work here? Cool, I like that! Will keep it in mind.)
On the note of the nurse, she's just quietly doing her paperwork as long as Kee isn't causing any trouble. She's definitely keeping an eye on him, though...
--------------------------------------------------
The Roughneck doesn't take too kindly to Kee's sarcasm. Though he seems to be a little more riled up than someone probably should be...he's probably not sober.
"Oh, think you're hot stuff, do you? Think you can take me with your pretty in pink bunny and tiny little vampire wannabe? Well, then PROVE IT!"
The Roughneck slams a fist on the bar, causing it and all the drinks sitting nearby to shake. His other hand is hovering near one of his pokeballs, and the bar has gone quiet as all eyes have turned to see what the commotion is...
The bartender looks just as unimpressed as Kee.
"Take it outside, Jeremy, or you're going to have to deal with the bouncer. I won't have you messing up my bar's interior again."
The Roughneck glares at the bartender, then turns it on Kee.
"You. Me. Battle. NOW."
And then the Roughneck shoves Kee off of his seat before proceeding to march towards the door!
Well, that was rude. Octavia's still hissing at the Roughneck, and Draven is is 100% offended as well.
The bartender looks apologetically at Kee. "...sorry, but could you deal with him, please? I'll make sure you're properly compensated for the trouble. Just stall him while I call cops. This isn't the first time that Jeremy's caused a public disturbance, if you couldn't tell."

Detect 1
(6)(4)(1)(1)(4)(6)(2)(2)
Diam protects herself!
Vicky's pokemon spend their first set of actions setting up as well!
Hone Claws 1
1 Spe + 3 Fight + 3 Brawl - 2 Act = 5 D6
(6)(2)(1)(3)(3)
+1 Strength and Accuracy for Felunge!
Beethoven starts scheming from the relative safety of being behind Diam.
Nasty Plot 1
(5)(5)(1)(1)(4)(3)(2)
+2 Special for Beethoven!
Sandstorm 1
3 Spe + 3 Sur + 1 Nature - 2 = 5
(2)(4)(2)(1)(2)
A Sandstorm brewed! Drilgann looks like it's a lot faster now, too! +2 Dex (it shouldn't be weaker than Chlorophyll and Swift Swim, imo, even if it does give you an immunity to Sandstorm damage)
Everybody's set up now, so now the damage starts flying! Starting with Felunge!
Beethoven is the same size as Diam but has a giant gemstone to hide behind and dodge around, and he's faster than Felunge is. However, he is trying to hide from a melee attack instead of a ranged one, so he'll only get the -2 reduction from Half Cover instead of a -3 from Full Cover.
Slash 2
4 + 3 + 3 + 1 - 4 = 7 D6
(5)(3)(2)(5)(3)(3)(4)
4* + 3 + STAB - 2 - 2 = 4 D6
(1)(2)(5)(4) Beethoven takes 2 damage! 4/6 HP -1 Pain
Diam is immune to Normal type damage.
Even in this sandstorm, Beethoven's still faster than that mole! (5 Dex versus 4*). And he makes sure that everyone knows it!
B O O M B U R S T ! ! ! 2
(6)(3)(2)(2)(5)(6)(1)
Felunge has 3 Sp Def, Drilgann has 4
(6)(3)(2)(1)(5)(6)(4)(5)(4)(6)(1), (1)
Felunge takes 6 damage! 2/8 HP -2 Pain
Drilgann takes 6 damage! 5/11 HP -2 Pain
It doesn't affect Diam...
Drilgann tries to strike both of its foes at once! Beethoven cowers behind Diam, getting the benefit of full cover for this ranged attack!
Rock Slide 2
4* + 4 + 2 - 1 - 2 - 4 = 3 D6
(5)(1)(3)
3 + 3 - 5 = 1 D6 + 1
(4)
Diam takes 1 damage! 7/8 HP
Beethoven takes 2 damage! 2/6 HP -2 Pain
(3)(1)(4)
(3)(5)(5)
Diam retaliates! KABOOM!
Metal Burst 2
(3)(6)(4)
(6)(4)(6) Drilgann takes 3 damage! 2/11 HP -2 Pain
Feint Attack 3
10 + 1 - 2 - 6 = 3 D6
(5)(2)(4)
2 + 4* - 2 - 2 Cover = 2 D6
(3)(2) Beethoven takes 0 damage.
(1)(3) Diam takes no damage as well!
Time for the birdy to end this with a good ol' yell! Unlike Diam, Pain doesn't bother him at all during battle! (and Diam absolutely loathes the fact that she's able to be robbed of her third action so easily simply by taking one or two blows)
Hyper Voice 3
(1)(6)(4)(1)(5)
(6)(4)(3)(1)(2)(5)(1), (2)
Felunge takes 2 damage and faints!
Drilgann takes 2 damage and faints!
Rising Star Vicky has been defeated!
"...awwww man...good strategy, dude...I'll have to try and figure out if I can use that method myself...anyways, guess I owe ya this."
Randolph obtains a Rocky Helmet! He also gets $2000!
"You make sure to put that helmet to good use, yeah? I didn't go crawling through the tunnels of Tandor's Victory Road looking for that item for nothing! Oh, and the cash? Consider that a bonus since you impressed me."
Diam, Beethoven, and Randolph gain 5 exp each.
Good job! If it weren't for that Cover Diam was providing, that fight would have been a lot harder!
Randolph let out a whoop as Beethoven hooting and hollering managed to clean the clocks of Vicky's Felunge and Drilgann, raising a fist to the sky and grinning proud and confidently!
"Outstanding Performance, buddy, and good job shielding him from harm Diam! Both of ya are going to be getting treats tonight, after all the hard work you put in today partners!"
The wee anklebitter, who was already relishing her victory by cackling over her fallen foes misfortune, broke out into a little dance and smiled much less creepily at her partner's announcement, as that meant she was getting diamonds for supper tonight, woo hoo! Beethoven, on the other appendage, fluttered his wings and let out a blast of triumphant brass as he smiled in pure happiness of actually achieving victory without getting Fainted! Getting an especially tasty dinner only served to magnify his existing joy, which in turn lead to the sounds of victory he made grow louder and bolder too!
He strutted over to the prodigal lass receive his well deserved reward for a job well done, and offer his two cents on her own strategy.
"Ya did well yourself, lass. Didn't expect you to set up along side my Pokemon nor that Drilgann of yours becoming spritely enough to almost outspeed Beethoven, and that mole's Rock Slide could've messed me up real bad. Could've easily walked away the victor if a bit more luck, so don't feel too torn up about the outcome."
He was somewhat taken aback by getting an addition influx of cash from her alongside his Rocky Helmet, giving her a askew look that eventually smooth out into one of respect/gratefulness as he offered her a handshake.
"Thank ya, Vicky. For the good fight, and for ya generosity. I got several Pokemon that can put this Helmet to good use, including a Druddigon, so rest assure that it ain't going to waste! Good luck here in Sinnoh, lass. You're tough as I thought you were, so I feel you'll be going far in whatever ya doing regardless."
Well, that went well! He had nice Double Battle overall, and walked away richer for it! Time to return to the Pokemon Center and get his partners patched up, and wait for the others to come and see if they want to join his investigations of Snowpoint Temple. Hopefully that'll bode superbly as his this day has been for him, but something tells him it wouldn't be nearly that easy....
If its possible and wouldn't cost an Encounter, could Ran go out in Snowpoint and look for a Specialty Pokemon Food Store and Butcher's Shop? He wants to rewards his Pokemon with an excellent dinner, and giving Zorn some choice cuts of meat would be a good way of starting to pay him back for agreeing to fight for him during Candice's Gym Battle!
Oh, and that Rocky Helmet is going to be worn by a certain behemoth he has, as they certainly can get the most out of it right now!
Like the wind, I come and go as I please... but I am always there to provide a comforting breeze.

How generous of her.
"A battle total of 6x6 it's more than enough to me. No healing items in this battle, only Hold ones. No move limit please, since this is not a Gym battle. And how it sounds we wager 900 Pokedollars? You gonna have a special lesson today girl."
Also Dragonstrike, before we begin I swamping one item of a Pokemon of mine for a Mega Stone. Don't want to say witch on, since I don't want to spoiled the surprise. But you know witch on.

Oh boooh, trouble has found him for another time today, not even here you are left alone to enjoy some peace. There goes Kee's desire to simply dwell here for a bit to process the latest chain of misfortune over one or two drinks! He heavily begins to wonder why the heck in every Legendaries's holyness HE of all people ended up being dragged into this mess, has he done anything to allure a STAB-Surf's wave of bad karma and Fortuna's Stomping Tantrum onto himself? Eh, not that he knows of.
Kee however all calmly and unamusedly takes another sip of jack and coke, places the half-empty glass back onto the counter - in all the current quietness the icecubes clinking within in echo dangerously - and THEN eventually takes the time to answer that Roughneck in an unimpressed and definitely NOT afraid tone: "Say, are you colorblind, canned or simply dumb that you don't recognize a shiny Pokemon when you see one? She's not especially liking that you're calling her a 'pretty in pink' bunny, none of these terms match her appearance." There's a faint amount of provocation and 'you offended me' hidden in between the lines of these words, but it's plain nothing compared to how Octavia's giving herself: She staaaaaares and glaaaaaares at this mean guy, takes a bold stance ready to charge into this foe, and demonstratively waves her ribbons to let loose some glimmering sparkles, all to express 'I'm not an ordinairy Sylveon FUUUUUUUUUUU, say that again into my face!!!'.
(Not my artwork, ©Swiftalu on instagram)
Towards the bartender, musical rave-guy returns the apologetically look with a hand gesture of 'It's no big deal'. "With all the luck I'm having today, I really shouldn't complain about this situation. ╮( ˘ 、 ˘ )╭ *turning towards his toxic vampire and dear faeeveelution* Come on you two, we'll handle this real quick and thentry to enjoy a bit of peace." He's obviously delighted that he doesn't have to freeze anymore when making his way outside, and throws an agreeing look over his shoulder to said bartender as he does: "Fine, fine. You'll owe me at least one free highball for that, 'cause the stuff you serve is pretty good. ~☆"
Outside, Draven and Octavia take battle-ready stances and are ready to POUNCE without the hint of mercy, But Kee's calming them with ease and instead turns to + adresses his opponent, arms crossed and his attitude not leaving room for any nonsense. "You wanna battle then, huh? Well, fine. And to what conditions? Keep it fair, as the moment you attempt anything funny or start to play dirty, I will do so as well, much to the enjoyment of what you've called my wannabe-vampire."
Mechanics:
How about a 3vs3? Double Battle or not I don't care. Preferably without Item Usage (apart from Held ones) to save them for entering dungeons, and without fainting unless it can be assured that they'll be completely healed again for the 3rd Encounter = perhaps visiting the temple.

That won't take an encounter. Some Gourmet Food sounds like the kind of thing you're looking for, and will be the standard cost. It can be reflavored to be the kind of food ya want for each pokemon so long as you have 1 serving per pokemon you wish to feed.
The exception is diamonds for Diam, as that's not a typical foodstuff. You'll have to go to a jewelry store or similar for that, and diamonds can get to be quite pricey depending on what kind ya get.
