As Anastasia commanded her latest attack, even Falkner could feel her personality changing. Her voice had become harsher and more malicious, and it was quite worrying for the Gym Leader. She had said that she was fine, but now the girl was acting incredibly sinisterly. This was not normal in the slightest. It was Falkner's job to test this challenger and push her to her limits, but perhaps he had gone a little too far. Perhaps this girl had snapped all of a sudden. "Are you sure you're alright there?" he asked with a very concerned tone to his voice. Pidgeotto looked more scared for its own safety than anyone else's, having also noticed the darker hue to Ana's personality. Falkner shrugged his shoulders and tried to put the thought out of his mind. Even if she had suddenly lost her composure, all the Leader could do was continue to face her with all he had. He couldn't simply hand over a Gym Badge, regardless of the circumstances. She would have to earn it.
"Alright, Pidgeotto, let's have a-" Falkner started, but he wouldn't be able to finish his sentence before the challenger's Pikachu made its move. Angel sparked with electricity, her very body becoming a ball of lightning in just seconds. With a loud cry of "PIIII-KAAAAAAAAA!", the yellow rodent shot toward Pidgeotto at a speed that neither Pokémon nor trainer could possibly track with their eyes. In a flash, the Electro Ball connected with its target, and Pidgeotto cried in pain as the electricity coursed through its avian body. The Flying type plummeted to the ground, unable to keep itself airborne for this moment. Crashing into the floor below, a massive cloud of dust formed around it. "PIDGEOTTO!" Falkner cried, hoping desperately that his partner would be OK after that merciless strike. As the dust settled, the Leader realised that his Pidgeotto was in one piece and breathed a sigh of relief. However, it was also unconscious. The long battle was finally over, it would seem.

"Fried pigeon, anyone?"
Falkner walked slowly over to Anastasia, looking quite unsure as to what he should be doing now. "Well, congratulations. It looks like you've bested us. You and your Pokémon were quite a sight to behold. I'm not going to forget this battle in a little while, that's for sure." He wasn't exactly talking about the content of the battle itself, moreso the behaviour of the trainer, but he kept this to himself. "My dad's beloved bird Pokémon and I never stood a chance. So, take this. It's the Zephyr Badge, proof that you won here today." Falkner opened up his fist and presented Anastasia with a small, silver badge. It was shaped like a pair of wings, if one looked closely enough. "But that's not all. I'd like you to have this too." The Gym Leader reached into one of his trouser pockets and revealed a small, blue-tinted disk. "This is TM51. It contains the move Roost. Roost is a handy move that will restore up to half of a Pokémon's health. It'll help you last those long, gruelling battles that you're sure to come up against. But be careful, only Pokémon capable of flight can come down to Roost. Falkner smiled warmly and backed off a few paces. "If you're wondering where to go next, I would suggest visiting Azalea Town. It's not far from here, just head through Union Cave and you'll see it signposted once you're out. You'll find your next Gym Battle there. The Leader, Bugsy, is a strong one. Make sure you're prepared for him." With that, the Flying specialist walked back to the centre of the room, leaving Anastasia to make her exit.
