WARNING: SLIGHT CUSSING FROM A PISSED OFF RAIN! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon Academy.
Italics mean thoughts...
"I can't believe we're finally here," Ryan exclaimed. He set down the large bag he had been carrying and looked up at the tall gates in front of him. "It's huge isn't it Mareep?" Ryan's golden yellow eyes trailed down to the sleeping Electric type on his shoulder. Gently nudging his beginner Pokemon awake he repeated the question aloud for her to answer.
"Ma-mar-mareep..." Mareep chatted sleepily, her eyes drooping tiredly. Ryan let out a low chuckle at the lazy Pokemon as he watched her struggle to stay awake. Then Ryan turned on his heel and looked at Rain as she slowly approached him, her large suitcase being pulled behind her. "What do you think Rain?" Ryan asked his best friend. Rain's sea green eyes locked with Ryan's golden ones before her face contorted into an expression of frustration. As Rain walked past him the Eevee on her shoulder stuck at her tongue at him. Rolling his eyes Ryan ran in front of Rain and stopped her. "Are you still mad at me for that joke? I've apologized over a million times already."
Rain let out a sigh and narrowed her eyes at Ryan. "I'm still a little mad at you but I'm more nervous about how big Pokemon Academy is. All of these 'what if's' are running around my head and I'm starting to doubt coming here..." Rain's voice trailed off as she stroked her Eevee, Mirage's, cream colored neck.
"It's a little to late to be thinking like that," Ryan replied staring Rain down. "It's your chance to step out of what you call your families 'famous shadow'. And I've gotten used to the daily hate looks Mirage gives me, I can't live without them." Ryan joked. Mirage let out a Pokemon-like chuckle at Ryan's last sentence and Rain laughed along with her.
"I guess your right..."
"Good! Now we have to check in, so let's go!"
Rain nodded her head at Ryan and walked beside him as they headed to Pokemon Academy's main Battle Stadium where they were supposed to check in. When they neared the stadium Rain felt her pulse begin to speed up as she looked around at the large amount of bustling students around her. "Ryan I don't like this crowd it's a little to big for me," Rain whispered to her friend. Ryan looked at Rain with a reassuring look and led her over to a Checking-In station that wasn't very crowded.
"Is that better?"
"Yeah, I'm just not good with big crowds..." Rain muttered. She and Ryan handed in their Student Information to the lady in front of them who gave them their student I.D.'s and Room Keys.
"Head straight into Battle Stadium A and find a seat. Orientation will be starting within a few minutes. Leave your luggage here, it will be delivered to your dorms during Orientation.I hope you enjoy Pokemon Academy, study hard, and have a wonderful year!" The Check-In lady told them cheerfully with a slight wave of her hand. Rain and Ryan gave her a slight wave and headed into Battle Stadium A.
Walking into the stadium Rain flinched as she looked around at all of the people gathered in it. Almost every seat in every row was filled and she stuck close to Ryan as he looked for a pair of empty seats.
"Eve-Eevee!" Mirage barked out, pointing to an empty pair of seats two rows behind them.
"Thanks Mirage," Ryan told the Evolution Pokemon. Mirage merely stuck her tongue out at her trainer's best friend as they headed towards the seats and sat down.
"Good job Mirage," Rain praised her beginner as the Eevee took a seat in her lap. Mirage let out a happy sigh as Rain began to stroke her neck. Ryan gazed over at the two and rolled his eyes before moving his sleeping Electric type into his lap as well.
"Excuse me, is this seat taken?" A light voice caused Ryan and Rain to look over towards the stairs where a pale-skinned girl with maroon colored eyes and a Treecko on her shoulder had caught their attention. She motioned at the empty seat next to Rain to emphasize her question further.
"Go on ahead," Ryan quickly answered with a wave of his hand. Rain merely nodded her head lightly and scooted back a little so the girl could get through. As soon as the girl sat down Rain hid her face with her hair and continued to rub Mirage's neck, the Normal type enjoying all of the attention.
"I'm Lycia Faybel and this is my partner Treecko," Lycia introduced herself. The Treecko on her shoulder stopped chewing on the stick in its mouth long enough to give a small grunt. "It's my first year here at Pokemon Academy; that makes me a First Year. What are your names?"
"Ryan Gallegos, this is my partner Mareep. The girl sitting next to me is Rain King and her Eevee named Mirage. She's got some problems. Also Rain's a little shy but watch out she's got a temper worse than an angry Magmortar!" Ryan joked.
"I do not have a temper like a Magmortar, you idiot!" Rain immediately snapped. "If I have a problem it's with you and your mouth!" Rain crossed her arms over her chest and let out a huff.
Lycia sweat-dropped as the two began arguing then held up her hands to get the two teen's attentions. "Guys why don't you settle it later. Mrs. Ariana the Principal is about to say a few words." Lycia spoke up. She pointed down in the middle of the stadium to an young woman with shining blonde hair and calm green eyes. Ryan's gaze traveled down to the young woman and immediately clicked his tongue.
"Nobody mentioned that our Principal was hot... I wonder what it's going to take to get sent to her office today. Hm, maybe set up the old tar-and-feather trick on one of the teachers, then have Mareep 'accidentally' shock a few of the students, and finally..." Lycia doubled over in laughter as Ryan continued to list off pranks and earned a smug grin from him in the process. "Lycia wanna' join me for a few of the pranks, your good looks can work as a distraction."
"I'm good if I do anything it's finding a boy that doesn't flirt with every girl he meets," Lycia responded, her Treecko letting out a chuckle as Ryan's face fell.
"That's not fair, I don't flirt with every girl I meet. I've never flirted with Rain...Ow!" Ryan rubbed his cheek as a visible red hand began to form on it.
"Let's keep it that way," Rain muttered quietly, a pink hue spreading across her cheeks.
The three First Years quickly quieted down as the Principal spoke up and launched into her welcoming speech. She explained about the standard that Pokemon Academy holds its students too and the rules that the students have to follow. Also adding in to head to their dorms after Orientation is over.
"Now everyone I have a special surprise for you all," Mrs. Ariana spoke up. "For your viewing pleasure I bring you a battle for the Glade Region Championship; it will be Glade Region Elite 4 member Alex King versus her older sister the Glade Region Champion Amina King! And It will be a full seven-on-seven Pokemon battle. Now let's welcome them with open arms everyone!"
QUICK A/N: IN THIS STORY SEVEN Pokemon IS CONSIDERED A FULL TEAM INSTEAD OF SIX. :) I FEEL LIKE THIS GIVES THE STORY A BIT OF UNIQUENESS AND THE TRAINERS AN EXTRA CHALLENGE.
Ryan and Rain wore matching grins as they stood up and clapped for Rain's older sisters as they appeared below them on the battlefield. Amina's electric yellow eyes danced with excitement as a blowing wind blew her dark brown hair behind her. She was adorned in a long electric yellow blouse with sleeves that fell off the Champion's tan shoulders. Under the blouse was a simple pair of white skinny jeans with a lightning bolt motif design on the sides, long knee high black boots with a heel and golden buckles. On her hands were a pair black fingerless gloves, and around Amina's neck was a doubled looped golden necklace that held her Key Stone.
Amina waved to the crowd as she stepped out onto the battlefield. Her steps were light as she settled into place and gave everyone a wide smile, pausing a moment to take a deep breath and let Alex take her place on the field.
The whole stadium burst into a fiery applause as Alex King walked out onto the battlefield. Her long flame colored hair was pulled into a high ponytail on top of her head and as she walked it flickered like a burning fire. Alex's bright orange eyes seem to explode with a fiery passion as she stared Amina down. Alex's outfit showed that she wasn't a girl to be messed with; tight fitting red tank top with a flame motif and a black studded cropped vest over it, jet black distressed skinny jeans with knee high red boots with a matching flame motif, and matching jet black studded fingerless gloves, the left one containing her Key Stone.
"Amina prepare to lose!" Alex yelled over to her sister. "I plan on winning this battle. Nobody can match my Fire type Pokemon's deadly attack and speed! Your Electric types don't stand a spark of a chance!" As Alex continued to rant Amina shook her head and held up a hand to silence her sister.
"Come now dear Alex, I'm the Champion of the Glade Region for a reason. My Pokemon and I share an electrifying bond that will shock you into oblivion. Let's battle little sister."
"And here we go everyone!" Ariana called out. At Ariana's call Amina and Alex took their respective spots on the battlefield and brought out their first Pokemon.
"Simi, burn down the battlefield!" Alex yelled as she threw an Ultra Ball onto the battlefield. The advanced type of poke ball opened up in a flash of silver blue light and released a powerful Fire type from its confines. The Ember Pokemon stood tall and released a powerful flame from his mouth. The Fire type resembled a primarily red simian Pokemon with broad ears, oval eyes, a black nose, and large tufts of white fur around his body. The large red tail behind his body flicked back and forth in anticipation for the battle ahead.
"Simisear!" Simi roared as he stomped his foot on the ground. A large grin spread across Alex's face as she looked at her eager Pokemon.
"Luma, time to electrify!" Amina called out, the red and white poke ball she had just thrown opening up and releasing the little Electric type Pokemon inside of it. Luma was a small, white squirrel Pokemon with black oval eyes, yellow cheek pouches, and a long white tail with three blue spikes and an end that curled under. Along the whole length of Luma's body was a striking light blue stripe that brought out the white of her fur and made it almost blinding.
"Pachi-Pachirisu!" Luma peeped.
"I'll start things off then," Alex said. "Simi give Luma a taste of your Flame Charge!" Immediately following his trainers command Simi's body became en-cloaked in a bright fire that flickered around him. Facing towards Luma he headed straight for the small Electric type in front of him.
"She still uses the same old moves... how predictable," Amina threw her right hand forward as she gave Luma her first command. "Dodge with Quick Attack Luma! Don't give your opponent a chance to touch you! Then wait for Simi to let his guard down and attack!"
As a flaming Simi approached Luma, the small white Pokemon gave Simi a toothy grin before disappearing in a flash of silver light. Simi looked around confused as he continued to search for the small Pokemon. Then out of the nowhere Luma slammed into the oblivious fire type with blinding speed.
"Pachi-Chipa!" Luma peeped, running circles around a fallen Simi.
"Luma's speed is fast," Alex informed her Fire type. "Get back up! Keep using Flame Charge until you hit that pesky little Pokemon!" Simi's body became surrounded by a bright flame once more as he followed after a chuckling Luma.
Each attempt the Fire type made to hit the Electric type left him frustrated as Luma continued to dodge with her Quick Attack. The blinding dance of silver and fire ran across the battlefield as Simi got closer to Luma with each Flame Charge he used, his speed being boosted by each passing minute. Luma looked behind her and stuck her tongue out at Simi as she leaped over the fire monkey in a flash of silver and landed safely behind him in front of one of the battlefield walls.
"She's using Flame Charge repeatedly to boost her Pokemon's speed," Amina thought to herself. "Too bad that it won't be able to match Luma's speed and spunk."
"Simi, Flame Charge! Once more!" Alex ordered her Pokemon. As Simi's flaming body neared Luma once more the Electric type let out a giggle and watched as the fire monkey continued to get closer and closer to her and the battlefield wall she stood in front of. "Simi watch out!" Alex watched in horror as Luma leaped out of the way at the last minute of the speedy fire type coming towards her. Then Simi's body collided headfirst with the battlefield wall and the Fire type fell to the ground disoriented.
"Luma, now's your chance! Use Sweet Kiss!" Amina yelled out. Luma grinned as she reappeared behind a fallen Simi and began her attack. Placing her white paws to mouth Luma made repeated kissing motions with her hands that created several pink hearts that popped above Simi's fallen form.
When Simi gathered himself enough to stand up a pair of baby Torchic's appeared around his head as he walked around the battlefield in random patterns.
"Simi is successfully confused," Amina grinned. Luma giggled as she stared at her confused opponent. "Follow up with Quick Attack! Give Alex a taste of her own strategy!" The speedy white squirrel gave Alex her signature toothy grin before disappearing in flash and reappearing in front of a wandering Simi, tackling the fire type into the ground.
As Luma hit Simi repeatedly with Quick Attack a small crater formed onto the battlefield from the force of the multiple attacks. Then raising her hand into the air Amina signaled Luma to stop and the Electric type ran back over to her trainer.
"Alex's Simisear is unable to battle! The win goes to Amina and her Pachirisu! Alex send out your Pokemon!" Ariana's voice carried across the stadium as Alex returned her fallen Pokemon.
"Thank you Simi! Talon, burn down the battlefield! Avenge your fallen friend!" Alex shouted as she tossed a red and white poke ball into the sky. The circular sphere released a flash of silver blue light that formed the shape of a falcon shaped avian Pokemon. It's body was burnt orange with a gray underbelly and black tipped wings that looked like flames. The four large feathers on its tail carried three horizontal yellow stripes on them that stood out against their black coloring.
"Ta-lon-flame!" Talon screeched as he soared into the air.
"So you're going with your Talonflame then?" Amina questioned her sister. "Luma, Rain Dance!" Luma quickly ran into the center of the battlefield as the Talonflame above her circled around the her. Reaching her destination Luma let out a loud call of her name as dark clouds began forming above her. The dark clouds spread across the battlefield and began to let down a large spray of rain that surrounded the field. "Let's see how Talon likes flying in the rain."
"Talon has flown in worse conditions," Alex chuckled. "Talon show Luma a glimpse of your own Quick Attack!" Talon's body became engulfed in a silver light before he slammed himself into a surprised Luma. Luma took the full force of the attack and tumbled across the battlefield as the stormy weather intensified."Follow up with Flare Blitz!" Bright searing hot red orange flames surrounded Talon's bird-like body as he headed towards a stunned Luma just getting up from the previous attack. The flames around Talon's body intensified as he began to near Luma.
"Luma, straighten out! Wait until Talon is close enough then unleash your Thunder!" Luma looked over at Amina as her trainer gave her the next attack. The little Electric type jumped up from her fallen position on the ground and watched as Talon continued to get closer and closer to her. Just as Talon's scorching flames reached Luma she jumped over them and onto a surprised Talon's exposed back.
"Talon-flame!" Talon screeched. Then the Fire/Flying type began doing all sorts of spins and flips in the air in an attempt to throw a giggling Luma off his back.
"Now Luma use Thunder!" Amina called out to her Pokemon. Luma's small body began to cackle with electricity before she sent several sparks of it into the raining clouds above her. The large sparks of blue electricity crackled throughout the storm surrounding the stadium. Then letting out a cry of her name Luma summoned a giant bolt of blue thunder that struck Talon as she hopped off the dual Fire/Flying types back.
Talon's shocked body landed hard into the ground then began to topple over several times prior to stopping in front of Alex's stunned body. Talon's eyes were now replaced with black swirls of defeat as the Pokemon let out a pained cry. Alex's teeth gritted against each other as she returned her newly fallen Pokemon.
"Talon, return. You did a great job." Alex told her Pokemon as Talon's body turned into red energy before getting absorbed back into the poke ball. "I need to send out one of my Pokemon that can match Luma's speed. Talon was quick but not quick enough... I guess I can't use Dash later in the battle like I wanted." Alex drew another red and white poke ball from her belt and tossed it into the air. "Dash, burn down the battlefield! No holds bard!" Alex shouted as a large fire horse materialized in front of her. Dash's flame-like mane and tail flickered strongly even in the pouring rain around them as she let out a neigh of her name.
"Rap-i-dash! Rap-i!" Dash neighed, pawing the ground in front of her. Luma titled her small head to the side as the large Fire type in front of her stared her down. The rain around the battlefield continued to pour down on the two Pokemon as they waited for their trainer's command.
"Luma, Quick Attack!" Amina commanded. Luma gave her signature toothy grin to Dash before disappearing in a flash of silver speed.
"Agility, Dash!" Alex directed her Fire type. Dash continued to paw the ground as she waited for Luma to appear and make her move. As if on cue Luma appeared behind Dash and tackled the fire horse hard with a quick burst of speed. "Now!" Alex called out. Dash became surrounded by a swirling white energy as she started dodging Luma's onslaught of Quick Attack's.
"So, she finally brought out Dash. I think Luma has reached her match in speed." Amina's thoughts began to race as she watched the now super-speedy Dash dodge the equally speedy Luma's attacks. "Try and dodge this then, Thunder! Now!" Sliding back from Dash Luma's yellow cheeks began to release blue sparks that flew up into the rain clouds above them and cackle throughout the dark colored clouds. Then as Luma let out a shout of her name she summoned the large bolt of blue thunder to strike down the Fire type in front of her.
The Rapidash took the full power of the strappingly powerful Electric type move. Dash's tall form fell to the ground from the strong attack she had just taken. The Fire types body began to radiate with small electric sparks as they traveled along the length of her body. Luma stood off to the side, her own small body shaking as well, but with giggles as she stared at her fallen opponent.
"Dash has been paralyzed! But... Agility boosted her speedy sharply and Luma look's like she is getting tired." As Dash slowly started to stand up Alex stared at Luma's small stature, the Electric type now taking in deep breaths. "Then I'm going to try and end it in this next attack."
"Luma, Sweet Kiss, then follow up with Quick Attack!" Amina ordered Luma. The electric squirrel eagerly started making kissing motions with her hands and swirling pink hearts started to head in Dash's direction as she struggled to get up.
"Dash, dodge it! Then use Fury Attack!" Alex ordered her Pokemon. Quickly jumping off to the side Dash dodged the quick attack and lowered her horn to Luma and began to stab at the smaller Pokemon. Using her Quick Attack Luma began to dodge Dash's oncoming Fury Attack.
"Start countering it Luma," Amina said, changing her tactics from evasion to attack. Following her trainer's orders Luma and Dash began to exchange a series of blows as they battled across the battlefield.
Suddenly Luma and Dash lunged at each other once more before collapsing onto the ground, sending up a cloud of dust in the process. As the dust began to clear Alex and Amina let out a gasp at the fallen Pokemon in front of them.
"It seems that both Luma and Dash are unable to battle! Alex is now down to four Pokemon while Amina still has six left!" Ariana's voice carried across the battlefield as she informed everyone. As Ariana's voice began to fade the Rain Dance a fallen Luma had summoned earlier began to disappear.
Meanwhile up in the stands Rain squirmed in her seat as she watched her two sisters facing off against each other. Her sea green eyes widened whenever both Pokemon fell the ground. "They've both grown so strong..." Rain whispered.
"What do you expect?" Lycia spoke up. "Amina's the Champion and Alex's is part of the Elite Four, why wouldn't they be strong and powerful? Arceus, I can't wait till I can battle them both one day. I heard that all of the King family is super strong! Wait a second... Rain... King... Rain are those your sisters battling?!" Lycia's maroon eyes became the size of saucers as she realized who exactly Rain was and who she was related too.
"Would you please stop staring at me like that? It's creepy..." Rain murmured as she hid her face in Mirage's brown fur. Ryan gave Rain a gentle nudge so that she would answer Lycia's question. Rain peeked at Ryan from her right eye and shook her head before burying her face back into her Eevee's warm fur.
Ryan let out a heavy sigh as he stroked Mareep's wooly coat. "Yeah, Rain's a part of the King family. She's the youngest child." Ryan told Lycia. Lycia let out a loud fangirling squeal that caused the people near her to gaze over at her like she was crazy.
Rubbing the back of her neck Lycia quickly apologized before repying to what Ryan said. "I can't believe I'm sitting next to a member of the King family. There's Derrick King and Miranda King, then their children; Amina, Athena, Alex, the twins Eliza and Giana, who are still attending the academy, and now you Rain. That's so cool that I actually know one of the King family members!"
"Not again..." Rain whispered. Hugging Mirage even closer to her she tuned back in to the battle as Lycia continued to ramble on about her family.
"And it looks like Amina's Zebstrika has knocked out Alex's Volcarona, but then Alex's Blaziken came back to defeat Zebstrika with a speedy Double Kick and Blaze Kick combo! What a turn around!" Ariana commented, her voice easily being carried across the stadium.
"Blitz, return. You battled hard." Amina cooed to her fallen electric type as he was returned back to his poke ball.
"And now Amina's down to five Pokemon while Alex has three left. What Pokemon will Amina send out next?" Ariana's commentary caused the students in the stands to became excited and rumble in their seats as the battle started to heat up.
"Here's your answer Ariana. Jewel, time to electrify !" Amina shouted. The blue and white Great Ball she tossed in the air opened up in a flash of silver light. The light slowly faded to reveal a yellow bipedal Pokemon with a white belly. Jewel's conical ears with black stripes twitched as she listened to the cheering of the crowd. Her long yellow tail also adorned with black stripes swayed to the side excitedly as she stared down Coal, Alex's Blaziken. As the sun shined down on Jewel the necklace on her neck shone with bright colors as the Ampharosite caught the sun's rays.
Alex and Coal exchanged a smirk as the Blaziken pumped his right arm into the air revealing a long guantlet type glove that held a glowing Blazikenite in it. Amina and Alex nodded their heads as they both reached to touch their respective Key Stones. As their finger's came in contact with the cool surface of the Key Stone bright yellow streaks of power shot out of the Key Stone's and met up with the blue streaks of power shining from each Pokemon's own Mega Stone. When the the tentacles latched onto each others their colors changed to a brilliant white when two pink jeweled cocoon's formed around Coal and Jewel. Then around the surface of the jeweled cocoons cracks began to form before shooting outward as Coal and Jewel emerged from them, their Mega Evolution's taking the place of their regular forms.
The yellow markings on Coal's body had faded away and were replaced with black markings on his upper legs and chest. The hair-like feathers on his head took on the shape of a wing and continued to point upward. The fire on Coal's wrist have extended even farther up his arm and flickered brightly with excitement as he looked over at his opponent Jewel, who has also Mega-Evolved.
Jewel's toes had faded from their white color and have turned a deep black. Along the top of Jewel's head she grew a bunch of white wool that extended over her head and down to her tail. Her tail was no longer yellow with black stripes but had the same large wool like appearance as on the top of her head and had multiple red orbs scatter throughout it.
"Coal, Flamethrower!" Alex commanded her Pokemon. Opening up his red beaked mouth Coal let loose a large straight stream of burning fire that headed for Jewel.
"Counter it Jewel! Use Thunderbolt!" Amina countered. Letting out a cry of her name Jewel's body began to radiate with electricity before a large yellow bolt of it shot out to the counter the Flamethrower.
"Grr! Double Kick!" Alex order Coal. Coal's long legs quickly closed up the distance between him and Jewel as he headed for the Electric, and now Dragon type, in front of him. Swinging both of his legs in a roundhouse motion Coal's legs swung their way towards Jewel's stomach.
"Protect, now!" Amina yelled. Suddenly a green colored energy shield appeared around Jewel's body just as Coal's attack was about to strike. With each continued strike Coal made the barrier continued to hold firm, not letting up. "Now, while he's in close strike with Dragon Pulse!" Following her trainer's orders Jewel opened her mouth and began to form a beam of powerful dragon energy. The spiraling dragon shaped attack left Jewel's mouth a few seconds later and struck Coal square in the chest causing the Fire/Fighting type to tumble several feet backwards.
"Crap!" Alex yelled out as she stomped her feet onto the ground in an angry fashion. "How can Coal even land a hit? Jewel's Protect is too strong to break through..." Alex's orange eyes began to radiate with a powerful fire as Coal stood back up. "Coal, Double Kick and Blaze Kick combo! We're taking down Jewel!" Both of Coal's legs became cloaked in fiery red and orange flames as he sped forward towards Jewel again. Alex's grin spread from ear to ear as her Blaziken readied one of their best combos.
"Discharge, Jewel! Electrocute everything in your path!" Amina directed her Pokemon. Wild sparks of electricity formed around Jewel's body as she charged up her wild attack. Then the sparks exploded from her body and began to blindly strike across the battlefield.
"Coal, watch out!" Alex shrieked, worry evident in her voice. Coal ran wildly around the battlefield as he dodged the oncoming electrical charges trying to hit his body. But as Coal neared Jewel's back a streak came out of nowhere and struck him clean in the chest. Coal fell to the ground and soon other sparks of electricity began to gang up on him before black swirls appeared in his eyes.
"Alex's Blaziken is unable to battle this battle goes to Amina's Ampharos! What a terrific battle of Mega-Evolution everyone!" Ariana called out as Alex returned yet another fallen Pokemon.
"You did amazing old friend," Alex whispered to her fallen Pokemon. Placing Coal's poke ball back onto her red belt Alex began to think. "I only have two Pokemon left... this isn't going how I planned... All I have are Nova and Magma... And Jewel's Mega Evolution is still active but not for much longer. I have draw out the battle enough so that her Mega Evolution wears off. And I know which Pokemon is up for the job."
"Giving up already Alex?" Amina teased her sister. Steam could be seen radiating from Alex's ears as she called out her next Pokemon.
"Magma, burn down the battlefield!" Alex called out her next Fire type. A streak of white light shot from the Ultra Ball that she had thrown into the air. The light disappeared and a large humanoid Pokemon with red and yellow stripes appeared.
"Mag-mor-tar!" Magma roared, sending shock waves across the battlefield.
"Jewel use Signal Beam!" Amina was the next one to call out a command and Jewel immediately fired a rainbow colored beam at Magma.
"Counter it! Dual Flamethrower!" Alex ordered. Magma quickly raised his two arms to the oncoming attack and released two powerful streams of fire that canceled out the Mega Pokemon's powerful attack. "Switch to Hyper Beam!" Alex commanded. With his arms still raised Magma fire an overwhelming beam of energy directly at Jewel. And before Amina could react the Hyper Beam hit Jewel square in the chest. The dual Electric/Dragon type tumbled backwards towards Amina as she looked at her Pokemon worriedly.
"Am-pharos!" Jewel called out as she stood back up. Her whole body began to crackle with electricity as Magma remained unmoving in front of her.
"Jewel, Thunderbolt! Take down Magma while he can't move!" Amina quickly spoke. Gathering her energy Jewel shot a bolt of electricity. With a direct hit Magma took full force of the attack and fell backwards, the immobility effects of his earlier Hyper Beam still active. "Now, Discharge!" Then Jewel released wild bots of electricity that surrounded the battlefield and struck Magmortar on his face, sides, and stomach. Dust filled the stadium as Jewel's Mega-Evolution finally went away.
Across from the battlefield Alex ground her teeth against each other as she saw that Magma was defeated. "At least Jewel's Mega Evolution is over with..." Alex then recalled Magma's tired body back into his Ultra Ball. "You earned a good rest Magma. Look's like I'm down to one Pokemon, ready Amina?" Alex looked at her sister with her glowing orange eyes.
"You bet, return for a good rest Jewel." Amina said as she recalled Jewel back into her poke ball.
Both sisters tossed a plain red and white poke ball into the air. They opened up at the same time and released a familiar streak of white from each sphere. The lights landed in front of Amina and Alex and formed the shape of their top partners, respectively.
"Flash, time to electrify!"
"Nova, burn down the battlefield!"
In front of Alex stood a quadruped Pokemon with three toes and yellow pads on each of his four feet. Long red ears, dark eyes, and a small black nose adorned his face. The reddish-orange fur on the Fire types body shuttered as he shook it out. And the yellow tuft of fur on his head, bushy tail, and fluffy color seemed to radiate with heat as he stared down the Pokemon in front of him.
"Flare-Flareon!" Alex's Pokemon called out as he barked at his brother.
The quadruped, mammalian Pokemon in front of Amina barked back as he shook out his yellow fur and the spiky collar around his neck. The Electric types long, slender legs stretched out as he gave his body one last shake.
"Jolt-Jolteon!" Amina's Pokemon barked back.
"Ready for a battle Nova?" Alex asked her top partner. Alex and Nova shared a wide grin as Nova got into his battle stance.
"I'm expecting your absolute best Flash," Amina told her number one Pokemon. Flash looked back at his trainer and gave her simple nod of his head before facing back towards Nova and striking a fierce pose. "Let's begin then. Flash, Pin Missle!"
The white collar around Flash's neck began to vibrate as several needle-like hairs flew into the air and began to point towards Nova. Nova's fur bristeled as more of Flash's attack appeared in the air. "Release!" Amina ordered Flash. The Electric type let out a loud growl as he launched the sharp need-like hairs at Nova.
"Nova, Quick Attack to dodge, and follow up with Fire Fang!" Alex countered. Nova's reddish-orange body became surrounded in a bright white light as he zoomed away from the oncoming Pin Missle. As he dodged Flash's attacks Nova's long, sharp teeth became surrounded by flames as he neared Flash.
"Watch out Flash! Counter that Fire Fang with your Thunder Fang!" Amina ordered Flash to counter. As Nova made his way over to Flash the Jolteon's sharp teeth extended and became enveloped in electricity. When Nova and Flash came into contact with each other both Pokemon sunk their teeth into the others neck as their attacks began to do damage. The two Pokemon began to roll across the battlefield, both of them wanting to cause as much damage to the other as possible.
"Flash, Agility now!" Amina called out. As Nova opened up his mouth for a split second Flash's body began to radiate with a blue energy before the Electric type disappeared and reappeared behind a surprised Nova. "Shock Nova with your Discharge!" Immediately Flash's body became surrounded by an electrical charge that struck Nova before he had a chance to dodge.
"Flareon-Flare!" Nova's pained cry echoed throughout the battlefield as Flash's powerful Discharge continued to shock him.
"Shake it off! Fire back with Fire Blast!" Alex yelled. Forcing himself back to his feet Nova let out a low growl as a five-pointed star made of fire formed in front of his mouth. "Now, fire!" The flame continued to grow to a large degree before it was released towards Flash.
"Find a weak point Flash, then dodge it!" Amina commanded her Pokemon. Watching closely Flash's black eyes focused on the attack heading straight towards him. As the attack nears him Flash jumped towards the bottom part of it and began to roll forward to where a tiny opening was.
"Not going to happen! Nova, now!" Alex signaled her Fire Type. Nova's eyes flash red as the Fire Blast suddenly started to spin together causing the opening to close and Flash to barrel straight into the attack.
"Jolteon!" Flash cried out in pain. Amina's hand flew to her face as she saw her partner covered in burn marks across his slender yellow body. When Flash tried to stand his body was quickly surrounded in a bright red flame that disappeared as quickly as it had appeared.
"Flash has been burned..." Amina thought worriedly. Her beloved Electric type struggled to stand as he and Amina shared a worried glance. "He's in a lot of pain."
"Nova, Fire Blast again!" Alex shouted. Following his trainers command Nova released another poweful Fire Blast towards a burned Flash. "Alright! Now that's sure to burn him to a crisp!"
"Agility!" Amina called out. As the Fire Blast reached him Flash managed to phase through it with the super-speed boost he got from his Agility. As Flash landed back on the ground he skidded right in front of Amina who gave him one last command. "End it, Return! Show Alex our true bond!"
"Jolt-teon!" Flash gave a bark of his name as his body became surrounded in a blue sparkling energy.
Alex's face tightened as she saw the power beginning to radiate off of Flash. "Then it's time for me to pull out our ace move combo!" Alex though to herself. "Nova, Fire Blast and Overheat combo!" Alex commanded her Pokemon.
Pulling his focus together Nova fired a star-shaped stream of fire in front of him then a raging fire ball known as Overheat into the center. As soon as the Overheat came in contact with the Fire Blast the two attacks combined to form a gorgeous, fire flower that headed towards Flash.
"Flash go straight through it! One measly combo won't stop our powerful bond!" Amina told her Pokemon. Flash let out a bark of his name as he leaped through the overwhelming powerful Fire type combo. Multiple burn marks started to appear along his yellow body as Flash fought his was through the combo. "Flash, fight it! I believe in you!"
With Amina's encouragement Flash fought through the combo and slammed straight into a surprised Nova, sending the Fire type flying back towards Alex and making a cloud of dust appear in the process. As the dust cleared it revealed a beaten up Nova struggling to remain conscious.
"Stand up Nova! Come on pal!" Alex encouraged her Pokemon. Nova struggled to put one foot in front of another as the burn affect from earlier began to take it's toll on Flash. Flash began to growl at Nova as the Fire type straightened himself out.
"It's over, Flash come back." Amina told her partner. Flash stopped his aggressive stance and padded back over to his trainer just as Nova collapsed onto the ground defeated. Alex's head hung in defeat as she ran over to her fallen partner lying in the middle of the field.
"Nova!" Alex cried out worriedly. Reaching the fallen Fire type Alex quickly brought out a Max Revive and feed it to Nova. As the Max Revive worked its magic on Nova, Alex heard the sound of approaching footsteps and looked up to find Amina looking down at her with a bright smile on her face and a sorry looking Flash who nudged his fallen brother. "You're still as strong as ever Amina. I'm glad I got the chance to face you for the Championship. My team and I battled our hardest but we were unable to beat you. But next time I will win!"
"I'm glad I got to face you too Alex," Amina complimented. "You were a joy to face off against. My Electric types and I battled with our full strength against you. Alex, you are a fierce battler in your own right and the beautiful combo's you are able to pull off with your Pokemon is a page out of your old Coordinator's book. I'm glad I got to see some of your gorgeous combo's in our match. This battle was definitely electrifying little sister." Amina and Alex gave each other a hug before bowing at the crowd.
"I hope that everyone enjoyed the battle today! It was surely one for the history books" Amina shouted to everyone. Flash let out a loud bark of his name as the crowd erupted into the cheers.
"It was certainly fiery! Right everyone?" Alex asked the students. The students cheered even louder as Nova's tail nodded back and forth.
"Well everyone that's it for the battle! Now if you would all please exit stage left and head to the dorm on your Student I.D. your luggage will be waiting for you." Ariana called out to the students as they began to exit the Stadium A.
"That battle was so amazing!" Lycia said with excitement, a little too loudly. "The way that Amina and Alex commanded their Pokemon was amazing! I can't wait to face them when I get stronger! What do you say Treecko, we'll knock their socks off won't we?" Treecko lazily nodded his head in agreement with his trainers but the sparkle in his eyes gave away what he was really feeling. "Anyways, Rain what dorm are you in?"
Rain slowly pulled out her I.D. card and looked at it. "It says the Harrison Dorm, room 22." Rain spoke loud enough for Lycia to hear.
"That's so cool! Looks like your my roommate Rain! Let's walk their together! Whattaya' say? And I want you to quit being so shy around me kay'? I can't have one of my new friends acting that way. Besides I plan on battling you tomorrow before we, the first years, have to go to the Wild Pokemon Habitat on North Island." Lycia gave Rain a wink as she walked next to her.
Rain looked up and gave Lycia a genuine smile while Mirage grinned at her. "Sure, but I'm not really a battler, I'm more of a Coordinator... at least that's what I want to be. Mirage and I actually already started practicing some combos together. My mother and Alex helped me out over the summer before I came her, they are both former Top Coordinators so they know what they're doing."
"Awesome! I can't wait to meet them. And I want to apologize for going all fangirl on you earlier, I was just really excited about the match between Amina and Alex, and that I knew one of the King family member's officially." Lycia scratched the back of her head as she apologized to Rain. Rain merely nodded her head and gave Lycia another smile.
"Thanks for including me in the convo ladies," Ryan spoke up, sarcasm dripping from his voice. "Did I mention that Mirage keeps on giving me the death glare? It's freaking me out... but Lycia your good looks make me feel better. What do you say let's go out on a date tomorrow?"
Lycia rolled her eyes at Ryan's flirting and shrugged. "Sorry but I can't like you that way Ryan. I'm getting the brotherly vibe from you. Though you can always ask out Rain..."
"No way!" Rain yelled out, a blood vessel popping out on her forehead. "I don't want that player anywhere near me romantically! He's to stupid to even get a girlfriend...
"What do you mean I'm too stupid? Have you looked in the mirror lately?" Ryan retorted.
"Yeah and my didn't break from the ugliness staring into it unlike yours!" Rain shot back.
The two childhood friends began to argue back and forth as Lycia and Treecko stood off to the side laughing until they cried. In the distance two girls with matching bright blonde hair watched as the two shot insults back and forth. The girl with ice blue eyes and a Glaceon by her side was the first to speak up.
"I can't believe they're at it again Giana. All of that arguing is going to cause dear little Rain to get worry lines. Am I right Shard?" The ice blue eyed girl asked her Glaceon.
"Glay-ceon," Shard quickly barked to her trainer.
Giana's face was set into a straight frown as she watched Ryan and Rain's argument. "That boy is always getting our little sister into trouble... it's always been like that since they were little. Remember not too long ago when Ryan showed Rain the newly hatched Shinx and they both ended up getting attacked by the mother Luxray? I was the one that had to save them that day Eliza and that memory still makes me want to hit Ryan upside his head then have Leaf knock him out with her Solar Beam attack..." Giana's angry voice faded away as she pushed her black rimmed glasses back up her nose and they settled into their rightful place in front of her forest green eyes.
"Leaf-eon!" Leaf growled at Giana, agreeing with her trainer.
"That wouldn't be very beautiful my twin," Eliza replied. "What if Shard blasted Ryan with a Blizzard and froze him? It would be like a brilliant ice crystal! And when the sun collided with it the whole crystal would glitter like diamonds!"
"That would make a good contest move for you and Shard to do," Giana told her twin. Eliza immedietly asked her sister to scribble it down on a notepad so that she could use it later for one of her contests. "Now you have a photoshoot off campus in the next hour and we need to leave now if we want to get there on time." Giana and Eliza nodded at each other before heading towards the Academy Airports, passing Rain and them on the way.
When Giana and Eliza passed Rain they both quickly gave their little sister a hug before Giana ushered them both away, while Leaf and Shard gave Ryan the evil eye.
"Rain what's up with all of your families Eeveelutions giving me the evil eye?" Ryan asked his still red-faced friend.
"Probably because you're an idiot..." Rain muttered.
"Rain your family's hilarious," Lycia spoke up, attempting to break the hot air that was forming around Rain. "I saw Mirage giving it to Ryan earlier and it's really funny."
"Whatever," Ryan huffed. "Rain do me a favor and watch Mareep for me for a little bit, she'll be asleep most of the time anyway. I don't want to place her in my room when my roommates and I are setting up and have her squished by accident. We both know she doesn't like being in her poke ball and you watching her is the only other option. Please?"
Rain let out a loud sigh as she took a tired Mareep from Ryan's arms and held her. "Fine, but you owe me." Rain muttered to Ryan. Ryan gave Rain an ear to ear grin as he headed off in the direction of his dorm.
"I'll stop by your dorm later to pick her up," Ryan yelled as he jogged away.
"Come on let's get to our dorm. Our other roommate is probably there by now anyway." Lycia spoke up. "Let's go!"
"Here we are, Room Twenty-Two of the Harrison dorm." Lycia said as she opened up the door with her room key.
Walking through the small hallway Rain and Lycia made their way into the room. Three twin sized beds lay in front of the windows in the back of the room that gave a look of the school's Central Garden. A small kitchenette complete with a miniature fridge and microwave oven stood in a corner of the room. And in the bottom right corner where Rain and Lycia stood was a large black colored sectional couch, plush dark red carpet, and large flat-screen television.
Rain's small feet tapped against the dark hardwoods that covered the dorm room's floors as she walked over to the empty bed with her stuff placed in front of it. Lycia, following Rain's actions, headed over to the empty bed next to Rain's with her own stuff placed in front of it.
"Mirage, Mareep, you two relax here on the pillows while I get my stuff put up." Rain told the two Pokemon when she placed them on the pillows. Mareep, already asleep, continued to snore lightly as Mirage turned around in a circle a few times before dozing off as well.
"Let's get everything in order then Rain," Lycia said to her friend. Nodding to each other the two fourteen year olds began to put their things away.
Roughly thirty minutes later the dark mahogany dressers were filled with clothes, beds adorned with bed sheets and comforters, toiletries put away in the bathroom, and some decorations put up around the room. Off at the end of Rain's bed stood the young artist easel and art supplies.
"Are you an artist Rain?" Lycia asked her friend as she placed her laptop on top of her dresser. "What drawing you have out are really cool. I draw too but I'm more into scenery's though."
"Really? Cool," Rain replied as she hung a picture of her family, their Eeveelution partners included. "I've always had trouble with background scenery, you should help me out sometime. I mostly like to draw outfits, Coordinator combinations, and Mirage. I hope to draw to draw some of the Pokemon I catch in the future too."
"Awesome!" A grin appeared on Lycia's face as she and Rain took a seat on the sectional in the living room part of their room. Just as Rain and Lycia got comfortable on the couch the hallway door clicked open and a young girl stepped through.
Her long orange hair was pulled up into a high ponytail and some hairs spiked out cooly to the side. The girls eyes were hidden behind a pair of gray shades as she walked towards Rain and Lycia, the Aipom on her shoulder looking around excitedly as he observed the room.
"Not bad accommodations," The stranger spoke aloud. Pushing her shades up onto her head her light blue eyes sparkled as she looked at Rain and Lycia. "You two must be my roommates, my name is Brooke Bullock and this is my partner Tails, he's an Aipom."
"It's nice to meet you, I'm Lycia Faybel that's my partner Treecko over there napping, and this is Rain. Her partner is the Mirage the Eevee and that Mareep is her friend Ryan's." Lycia introduced herself and Rain gave Brooke a small smile.
"So you must be the youngest King sister finally attending the Academy, huh?" Brooke asked Rain who nodded her slightly. "Good, I challenge you to a battle tomorrow. I want to see if the youngest of the King family can stand up to the challenge of Pokemon Academy..."
"Wait a second," Lycia interrupted. "You can't just barge in here and expect to battle Rain because I've already challenged her to a battle tomorrow." Brooke rolled her eyes before her and Lycia entered into an epic staring contest.
"Um guys..." Rain peeped. The two girls quit their staring match and looked at her. "Lycia already challenged me to a battle and I'm going to face her. Sorry Brooke... maybe next time?"
Brooke gave Rain a slightly annoyed look but nodded her head. Then Brooke headed over to her stuff and made sure everything was put away. After a while she headed back over to Rain and Lycia and took a seat on the sectional.
"So, where are you guys from?" Brooke asked Rain and Lycia as Tails took a seat next to her. "I'm Goldenrod City in the Johto Region."
"Viridian City, Kanto." Lycia quickly replied.
"Dusky City right here in the Glade Region." Rain answered. "But you probably already knew that."
"You're correct," Brooke gave Rain a grin. "So have you decided what you're going to evolve your Eevee into?"
"I don't know," Rain replied as she stared over at Mirage who was waking up from her nap. "My mom has her Sylveon, Dad has his Umbreon, Amina has her Jolteon, Athena has her Espeon, Alex has her Flareon, Eliza has her Glaceon, and Giana has her Leafeon. I haven't really decided but I want Mirage to choose what she evolves into."
"Personally I would want a Jolteon like Amina has," Brooke spoke up. "That Pokemon has some serious Attack and Speed stats. I could imagine training an Eevee into a powerful Electric type like that."
"Really..." Rain said before her mind began to wander into her thoughts.
Suddenly the door leading into their room busted open and Ryan came strutting in. "Mareep, I'm here!" Ryan yelled. Immediately Mareep's sleepy form shot up from being surprised but when she saw that is was only Ryan she started to doze back off. "Come on Mareep, I have to get... well hello there ladies." Ryan said as he casually sat next to Brooke.
"Took you long enough," Lycia told Ryan. The heavily tanned boy gave Lycia a wide grin as he looked over a pissed off Rain.
"What? Did I do something wrong?" Ryan asked Rain as her face got red from anger.
"Ever heard of knocking?" Rain retorted. "At least have enough decency to let us know your coming in before almost busting the door down. I swear... you never change." Mirage's brown ears shot into the air as she heard her trainer's voice raising. The Eevee quickly picked herself up and shot into her trainer's lap but when she saw it was Ryan she gave him her signature evil eye.
"Again with the evil eye," Ryan thought to himself before replying back to Rain. "Well since it was your room I kind of thought that I was welcome and could make myself at home. And you didn't mention that your other roommate was cute!"
Brooke and Ryan exchanged flirty grins before Brooke replied to Ryan. "My names Brooke Bullock. It's nice to know that Rain has cute guy friends but I'm kind of used to good looking guys barging through my door and confessing that they're attracted to me."
Ryan's golden yellow eyes widened to the size of saucers when he realized that Brooke was flirting back with him. A wide grin found its way onto Ryan's face as he flirted back with Brooke. "Really? I could understand that with such a beautiful girl like yourself? You know we..." Ryan's next sentence was cut off as Tail's, Brooke's Aipom, slapped Ryan across the face with his strange hand-shaped tail.
"Ai-Aipom-may!" Tails screeched as he hopped onto Brooke's shoulder and wrapped his tail protectively around her neck. "Aipom! Aipom!"
"Sorry... Tails is a bit protective," Brook spoke up but her words meant nothing when Ryan and Tails started to argue over Brooke.
While Ryan and Tails got into an argument Lycia had looked to find that Rain was still very pissed off and Mirage was snickering in her lap.
"Quiet!" Rain yelled. Immediately Ryan and Tails stopped there arguing and everyone turned to face their argument. "Stop all the useless arguing! And Brooke I accept your challenge for a battle tomorrow! Get ready because Mirage and I are going to wipe the floor with your a**! Now Ryan take Mareep and get out of my damn room!"
As quickly as he could Ryan grabbed Mareep from off of Rain's bed and ran out of the room and headed to his own dorm.
"What's up with your temper Rain?" Brooke asked the red-head headed towards her bed.
"Your useless arguing was pissing me off," Rain curtly responded as she grabbed a pair of black shorts and a long sleeved blue shirt from her dresser. "Now I'm going to take a shower and turn in. Brook I suggest you follow my lead! Go to bed early and get some rest. Trust me your're going to have to wake up early in the morning and train if you expect to even land a measly Scratch attack on Mirage during our battle!" Anger resonated off of Rain's voice as she slammed the bathroom door behind her.
Brooke's light blue eyes looked over to Lycia and she gave the girl a confused look. "What in Arceus' good graces just happened?! Rain went from shy and quiet to pissed off in less than a minute!"
"Ryan told me Rain has two modes," Lycia replied. "She can be shy and quiet one minute but if you find someway to piss her off she's worse than an angry Magmortar. I would recommend that you and Tails go to bed early because even in the short time I've known Rain what she says in her, as I have dubbed,
'MAGMA MODE' she's dead serious. She may be a coordinator but remember what family she comes from." With that Lycia headed over to get her sketchbook and began to draw some scenery background.
"Well, Tails what do you think?" Brooke asked the Aipom on her shoulder. "Let's go put in some training now and some in the morning. Something's nagging at me and telling me that we're going to need some serious stat boosts before tomorrows battle." Tails nodded along with his trainer as the two headed out the door to get in some needed training.
When Rain had the door shut a worried look stuck to her face like glue. "What exactly did I just get myself into? Dang it Alex! Why did your short temper have to rub off on me so much!"
And that's a wrap for chapter two everyone! Did you enjoy the battle between Alex and Amina?
Also for future references get used to seeing those two sides of Rain; Shy and Reserved, and MAGMA MODE! . Oh I love how Rain's new character is.
