It was a close battle, and the prevailing option is the first one!

"Is that all ya got?" Allen playfully taunts, able to get a good grip on the bottom of Patricio's shirt, and giving it a quick yank up.
"H-how?! C-come on!" Patricio yelps, still trying to swat at Allen but to no avail.
"Jamie pulls similar schticks with me, Pat. That's why this is going the way it is." Allen informs him, then giggling. "Are you ready?"
"I-in a m-minute!" Patricio shouts, doing a bit of a stumble walk towards Allen's bed. A few seconds later, once he's getting ready to try and climb on in, Allen smirks and suddenly pushes his back.
"H-hey-w-whoa!" Patricio yelps as the pressure is enough to cause him to topple over and fall. At least he's faceplanting in some nice, soft bedsheets.
"Ah-ha! Perfect!" Allen cheers, clapping his paws and laughing as he turns the Floragato over.
"W-what was that for?" Patricio questions, giving his right cheek a few gentle rubs.
"To make the tickling easier." Allen answers with a chuckle before wrapping his forelegs around Patricio's tummy. "This wasn't enough to hurt you, was it?"
Patricio shakes his head. "N-not at all...me and my sisters have done rougher things than this."
"Thought so, but figured i'd ask. And yeah, same with me and Jamie and Summer...Holly too." Allen says. "Truth be told, whenever i go to tickle Jamie, i look more forward to the struggling and roughhousing than the tickling most of the time. Just because it's funny seeing Jamie try to get me off his back." the Leafeon continues, starting to laugh. "Which he does quite often..."
"Oy...well, what all does he do? Besides yank and swat?" Patricio wonders.
"Oh, plenty." Allen replies. "He'll dance and prance around, he'll spin around trying to make me dizzy, which has worked a few times...he's tried and kicked before. But the best part has been the times he's tried to buck like a Rapidash or a Mudsdale trying to get me off."
Patricio can't help but chuckle imagining that. "Wow...he can be a handful, huh?"
"Not really...most of the time. I know most of his escape tactics and are generally ready for them." Allen answers, before suddenly using his left forepaw to give Patricio's exposed tummy a sudden poke.
"Yeep!" Patricio squeaks.
"Hehe...that was cute." Allen giggles, continuing to poke all around the Floragato's tummy and sides, eliciting more squeaks and some eeps from him, causing Patricio to blush.
"A-Allen, s-stop it." he tells the Leafeon, already stifling a giggle or two.
"Why? It's just the testing stage. And i like what i'm hearing out of ya so far." Allen responds with a smirk. "Now get ready..." he tells him before starting to count down. "5...4...3...2...1..." with each number, he gives Patricio another poke, Patricio able to remain quiet for the first two before eeping with the last three.
"Go!" Allen shouts, and keeping his forelegs wrapped around Patricio, he starts to give gentle scribbles to the center of the tummy.
"Ehe...Noho...Ehehe...Ehehehehehehehehehehe!" In spite of his best efforts, it doesn't take long for Patricio to start giggling cutely, already wiggling his legs around slightly.
"Good thing you went pee before we did this, huh?" Allen tells him as he continues the gentle tickles. Patricio doesn't answer that question, only continuing to giggle as he tries to get himself free.
"Good luck, bud. My grip's quite tight." Allen informs him. "I like the movement of those little feet, by the way...i'm really gonna enjoy scribbling those~" he adds, now speeding up the pace of his tickles a bit.
"Nohohoho yohohohou wohohohohon't!" Patricio's cute fit of giggles grows louder and more intense, and while he's able to wiggle his legs some, anywhere above the belt isn't able to budge outside of him turning his head to the left or right. He doesn't understand it...he's taller than Allen. And bigger, he thinks...how is trying to get away from him this difficult?
"I'll see what you can try...until then, i'm enjoying the giggles you're providing me. They're just like Jamie's, if not cuter..." the Leafeon remarks, now going all around the tummy.
"Yohohohohou'll pahahahehey fohohor thihihihihis!" Patricio declares between giggles, Allen just laughing in response without saying a word as he really starts digging into sweet spots of Patricio's, getting some more squeaks out of the grass cat as the next few minutes pass by. Allen is enjoying every moment of it, and while Patricio won't admit it, this is fun...but only a tiny bit.
At some point between tickles, Allen decides to kick things up a notch, leaning down to Patricio's tummy and giving it a raspberry. "PBBBBBBBBBBT!"
"KYAAAAAAAAhahahaha, Ahahahalelehehen!" This is successful in getting quite a reaction from Patricio, Allen proceeding to do a few more after this. Patricio's squeals are kinda like music to his ears, and after the raspberries, Allen decides another minute of intense tummy tickles will do before the first break...and once that's done, it will be time for the sides, feet and chin of the Floragato to get their ticklish turns.
Even with his loud laughter and being on the verge of tears, Patricio's ears pick up on some more laughter...but it's not coming from Allen's mouth. Looking up, his cheeks go a bit more red as he can now see...
1: Holly the Flareon, Allen's older sister
2: Jamie the Glaceon, Allen's younger brother who he's mentioned
