Pokémon: Battle for Supremacy
Chapter 1: The Tower Tycoon
"Infernape, use Flare Blitz!" Ash Ketchum commanded, and Infernape, the Flame Pokémon cloaked itself in blue fire and charged at it's opponent, a Metagross. "Metagross, use Meteor Mash!" His opponent called. Metagross, a quadruped tank like Pokémon, raised an arm. A golden meteor appeared in front of it. Metagross thrusted it's arm at Infernape. However, Infernape's attack hit first, and Metagross was knocked out. "Metagross is unable to battle! The winner is Infernape! The winner of this battle is Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town!" "Yeah!" Ash cheered jubilantly. He looked around the Battle Tower. He had just finished his final battle that meant…
Just then, the stadium darkened, and a voice boomed from the loudspeakers. "Ash Ketchum! You have defeated all the trainers you were matched with! You now have the honor of doing battle with our Frontier Brain, the Tower Tycoon Palmer!" The crowd cheered as two spotlight's waved across the audience, before converging across the battlefield from Ash. Where, they met, stood a tall, blond haired man in a long green jacket, grinning confidently. "What do you say, Ash Ketchum? Will you meet my challenge?" "You bet!" Ash called back. Facing Palmer was one of the main reasons Ash had even taken on the Sinnoh Battle Frontier. "Very well, then." Palmer said. "Lights!" the room immediately lightened again. "Now, it's time for battle!
Go, Rhyperior!" "Rhyperior!" A huge brown and red rhino like Pokémon was facing Ash. Hmm. Ash thought. Rhyperior is a Rock and Ground type. So a Grass type will work well against it! "Go, Torterra!" Ash called. An equally huge green and brown tortoise like Pokémon with a tree growing from it's back materialized on Ash's side of the field. "Battle, begin!" The official called. "Torterra, Energy Ball!" Ash commanded. The Continent Pokémon created a glowing green sphere in it's mouth and fired it at Rhyperior. To Ash's surprise, Palmer didn't say a thing! When the smoke from the attack cleared, Ash got the shock of his lifetime. Rhyperior hadn't even budged! Palmer's grin grew wider. "You see, my Rhyperior's Solid Rock Ability renders weak special attacks like that useless!" Grr…Guess I'm gonna have to try something else!" Ash thought. "Torterra, use Earthquake!" Ash called. Torterra reared on it's hind legs and slammed them down, creating shockwaves of energy. "Use Rock Climb and dodge it!" Palmer called almost effortlessly. Rhyperior slammed it's fist in the ground, and raised itself up on a pillar of rock. The Earthquake passed harmlessly beneath it. "Now, attack with Megahorn!" Palmer commanded. Rhyperior's horn began to glow white and grew longer it began to charge towards Torterra. However, at that exact moment, Torterra began to glow green! What's happening now? Ash though.
