The /only/ hot link stand.
Though what he's doing here is a complete mystery, you thought the guy just sold hot dogs, he has no reason to even be in this part of Kalos. There aren't any customers for miles, certainly none that want sausage.
It seems his character is another rabbit hole entirely.
"Gaaaaahhh..."
On top of this, he seems horribly battered and beat, as if he has just fought in a grand battle only to find himself on the losing side. Breathing heavily, standing on his own hind legs, he drops a pair of tongs.
You never pictured him as a fighter. Then again, you never really pictured him at all before just now.
"G...Give it....Give it back..." you can hear the Hippowdon mutter between breaths. Even at the brink of defeat, he still manages to hang on by a thread. Unfortunately, it's not enough to make a difference.
His opponent, unmoved by his weightless pleas, dismisses him with contempt. He too is a familiar sight, but for all the wrong reasons.
