A/N: Written for the A Prompt Per Pokemon Challenge, Emolga – cockiness.

Don't Blame it on Emolga

If only Emolga didn't think it knew everything. Then they might actually stand a chance in battle.

Though they might stand a chance anyway. Since Emolga certainly wasn't a bad natural battler. Still, that cockiness was asking for trouble. The trainer just knew it.

Unfortunately, he didn't have enough experience for the Emolga to listen to his commands.

And then one day he had no choice but to send Emolga into battle. Against a Pidgeot none of his other Pokemon could catch. He gave commands, hoping Emolga would listen.

Emolga did its own thing, thinking it knew better. And it lost.

It cost him eight hundred poke dollars – and Emolga seemed to blame it on him.
