Summary: There are many trainers in the world; they exist in degrees, from dabbler to legend. But only one can be the very best - one man, one Champion. I am that one. I am that man. My name? Red.

I carefully slapped him on the back anyway as he strode purposefully off. With his right thumb and index finger on his forehead he gave me the 'L' for loser as he stepped out onto the catwalk, the volume expanding dramatically as the light hit his figure.
I only smirked and waved. Blue turned and kept going, blissfully unaware.
There's nothing that can really wash away the feeling of slaying one's own kind. That's the truth of things, cut and clean. But you can move past it. And the first step to that? Watching your rival be informed by a stadium announcer that someone had taped a paper sign to his back.
It proclaimed: PROPERTY OF RED.
Sounded about right to me.
===
Reccer's Notes: Red's journey, as told by Red. This fic is brilliant. The worldbuilding, the characters, the writing, everything.The author meshes the different games plus the anime together to create a world with an astonishing amount of detail, and Blue and Red's rivalry is something to behold. Much thought was put into this.
