Red and Ash were on either side of the battlefield, both in their fighting stance and ready to bring out their first Pokemon. Red chose his PokéBall, grabbed it and tossed it out saying "Poli, come on out!"
Ash doing the same with his PokéBall, containing Gible while shouting out "Okay Gible you're up first!"
And that's how the battle began.
"Gible, lets start off with dig!" Ash shouted as the small dragon Pokémon obeyed and dug a hole underground. Red watched intently as the dragon Pokémon make its way down until it completely disappeared before forming a small, malicious grin on his lips.
"Alright, that's how it is then. Poli, Focus Punch on the ground on my count!" Red commanded. The blue fighting/water Pokemon nodded and waited for his masters' next order. Ash and everyone else in his side, mainly Brock and Dawn and May in the middle, waited as well, growing interest on what Red was planning, while everyone on Red's side smirked, specially Green. Three seconds passed and that's when Red shouted "NOW POLI!" as the Poliwrath did as he was told punching the ground with the strong Focus punch move. As it hit the ground, a deep hole formed and out came flying Ash's Gible, landing right in front of Ash with swirls in it's eyes meaning it has fainted. Ash and everyone else on his side's jaws dropped at the right timing Red had made that move out.
But Ash gained his composure quickly and returned his Gible saying "Don't worry Gible, you did great, have a nice rest."
After this he grabbed his next Pokémon calling out "Buizel, its your turn!" as the Water Pokemon, previously owned by Dawn came out ready to attack. Ash deciding to make the first move again ordered Buizel saying "Buizel, Aqua Jet right away!"
The Buizel did the Aqua Jet as he quickly hit Poli head-first sending it to a nearby tree. The Poliwrath has not yet fainted and now it's Red's turn to make a move. "Seismic Toss Poli!" He said as the Poliwrath came charging at the Buizel and grabbing it by the stomach and flying off to the air with it bringing it back down into the ground. Both Pokémons still trying to stand up, both trainers calling out to their Pokemon "WATER GUN!" at the same time as the two water Pokémons stood up and did the move as quickly as the other. They both got hit, but not much effect was done.
"Buizel back away and use Sonic Boom!" Ash yelled as Buizel followed his trainer's command. Red smirked at this.
"Alright, Poli, Ice Beam on that Sonic Boom quickly!" Poli the Poliwrath did as it was told and used Ice Beam directly at the upcoming Sonic Boom move which was now frozen, but still coming up to the Poliwrath. Everyone stood in awe at the frozen Sonic Boom. Red ordered Poli again shouting "Focus Punch at it now Poli!" Poli did as it was told and used Focus Punch on the big ice hurtling directly at it. It broke in half and as if Poli read his trainers mind grabbed the other half and flew up with it probably using Sesmic Toss.
Ash couldn't move as he was still gaping in awe at the trick Red has pulled. Meanwhile, Poli was heading head-first onto Buizel with the point of the half of the frozen Sonic Boom facing down with Poli's head hitting Buizel directly at the left shoulder.
Ash stared at Red who grinned.
Both trainers lost their current expression on their face and was replaced with a slight frown and a worried look as their two Pokémons has not come up yet. Red taking a step forward to see what has happened, discovered both Pokémons fainted, Buizel because of the sharp ice hitting it's left shoulder and Poli probably because of the impact it had to endure. He looked over at Ash and returned his gaze at the two Pokémons returning his Poli. Ash went over to check on his own Pokémon only to discover it fainted. He sighed and returned it as well while whispering to it "You did great."
"Aero, your turn!" Red said tossing out another PokéBall containing Aero, his only flying Pokemon.
Ash saw this and chose his own flying Pokemon too, calling out his Staraptor.
"Okay then, my turn to attack first, Aero, Take down!" Red ordered the flying dinosaur Pokémon as it followed it's master's command, charging down to Staraptor.
"Dodge it Staraptor!" Ash cried out. The Staraptor did as it was told and swiftly dodged the move, making the Aerodactyle nearly hit itself on a nearby tree.
Nearly as I say because Red stopped it by shouting "Stop Aero!" at the Pokemon who abruptly stopped, centimetres away from the tree. It flew high up again and waited for Red's next command but Ash beat him to it.
"Aerial Ace, quick Staraptor!" He said as Staraptor, this time charges towards Aero, it's sharp beak glowing ready to Attack the flying dinosaur Pokémon. Red didn't make any command at all to his Pokémon, only silently waiting for the attack to come leaving Ash an opening and a big confused thought.
Why won't he attack or dodge it? Well, now's my chance!
Just then when Staraptor was merely millimetres away from the Aerodactyl, Red suddenly shouted out "Hyper Beam Aero!" which right after the command, the Pokémon opened it's mouth. Coming out of it was a large orange beam orb shooting out and hitting the Staraptor in a matter of seconds. Staraptor came flying out hitting the tree that Aero previously, nearly hit. Although the damage was big, Staraptor still hasn't fainted yet.
Damnit! How was he able to charge that beam so fast?
The same question was still floating on Ash's mind, but this didn't make him lose his concentration. "You can do it Staraptor! I believe in you!" says Ash.
Aero still flying on top of Staraptor was waiting for Red to make another command. Red saw this and sighed.
He's not going to give up, is he? Well, I need to finish this quick. Our ferry to Lotres leaves in 10 minutes, if we don't get there before that, Green and Silver are gonna glare at me for the rest of my life while Sapphire and Blue will surely murder me in my sleep.
Red looked around to see the impatient faces of the rest of his friends and sighed in desperation. He quickly turned to Ash, grinned and returned his Aero back into it's PokéBall.
"Hey! What are you doing? You can't back down now!" Ash practically yelled.
"Sorry Ash, but me and my friends have a long journey to go to and our Ferry to Lotres region is ten minutes away before it leaves so I gotta wrap things up around here." Red grinned sheepishly and Ash sighed in disappointment. "But," Red continued making Ash's ears perk up. "I will be waiting for you in Lotres Region, and there how bout we make a deal? First one to beat the Pokemon League of Lotres and becomes a champion wins, Ne? If you accept, we can face each other for the crown and then we'll see who truly is the strongest." Red finished up as he saw the look on Ash's.
"Well, okay! Wait for me there!" He says as he hands out his hand to Red for him shake it. Red refused the gesture, instead he curled his fist into a ball and knuckle touched Ash, which Ash gladly returned.
And thus, the beginning of a new rivalry, a new friendship, and a new adventure...
"Hey, Red!" Gold said in a very carefree tone.
"Hm Gold?" Red replied as they continued to walk towards the harbour.
"How'd you know the guy's name when he, or we didn't tell you huh?" Gold asked curiously.
Red just smirked and said vaguely "There's some things in life that I know and don't know." And with that he headed on quickly towards Green who was ahead of everybody else.
"That was weird... And creepy..." Gold said shuddering before running off towards everyone else.
Ash && Dawn
"Ash!" Dawn said eagerly.
"Dawn, what's wrong?" Asked Ash who looked down worriedly at Dawn who was panting heavily. "Didja find out what happened to May? I mean she claims she's Sapphire and so does everybody else. What's up with that?" Dawn asked.
"I don't know. It's kinda weird, but we'll figure it out soon. But for now I'm gonna buy myself a ticket to Lotres Region, the challenge of my lifetime." Ash replied checking his gym badges.
"Can I come?" Dawn asked still panting.
"Sure! Let's go together Dawn!" As grinned as he grabbed Dawn's hand and headed out towards the ship that will take them back to Pallet Town.
Unknown
In a small dark room in some place in Lotres region, were two people tied up, sitting helplessly on the floor. One was a girl, looking down at the hard cold ground.
"It'll be fine, I promise we'll get out of here. They'll find a way." the other person, which was a boy assured the girl who just looked up with fiery determination in her eyes.
"I know they will."
