Heinrich had just left the previous town with a brand new badge. He was at the moment walking with his team leader, Slick. Slick had previously belonged to Heinrich's father and was rather strong. He sometimes does what he pleases against Heinrich's orders. Heinrich trained his pokemon hard so that he could someday become a gym leader and help his mother. He took out all his team once he found a good place to train. Slick usually just rested and watched unless he felt like helping with the training.
"Alright Max and Diamond you two have to train vs each other OK Winner gets an extra berry!" The berry was more than enough to get Max excited.
They spared for a while with Max winning the battle and him getting an extra berry as usual.
"Hey Diamond you are not upset cause i beat ya right?" Max asked.
"Nah I don't care training is training it was not a real battle. Plus I'm still a little tired from that gym battle. If it was not for Slick we would have been done for." She answered.
"Yeah..Though i wish he would take the training more seriously. We have to become the best there is and he just doesn't care." He told her not knowing that Slick was standing right behind him.
"Is that so?" Slick said with a grin. "Perhaps we should get a bit serious shouldn't we? Without warning Slick used Iron Head against Max who was sitting. Max was thrown a distance away.
Heinrich who had not been paying attention but heard the loud blow was shocked and ran to Max's aid and putting Slick back into his poke ball.
