[Once everyone who decided to come to the event has settled into their spectating spots, Colress ends his pre-battle chat with Klinklang to observe the crowd. He honestly can't say he ever expected to be having a Pokemon battle in a place like this, let alone face a human with his Pokemon. He was initially concerned for Sigrun's safety when she asked to fight, but he realized pretty quickly that Sigrun is Sigrun. He allowed himself to get a little excited after that.
He's used to pushing the limits to draw out his Pokemon's strength, but just how much strength can a human draw from his or herself by facing a Pokemon? This is an amazing opportunity to test that out.
He looks to Klinklang and nods. The sentient rotating gears bob up and down as a nod in return. They then both face their opponent. When Colress speaks, he's addressing everyone at first.]
Thank you all for coming to our little display today. I believe you are about to see something truly unique. Miss Sigrun is about to do something very few humans in my world ever dare to do: face a fully evolved-Pokemon by herself.
Klinklang and I wish her the best of luck with her endeavors.

[Then, to Sigrun,]
We are ready whenever you are, Miss Sigrun.
[In other words...
You are challenged by PKMN Trainer Colress!]
