I do not own anything that of Pokemon and I am not affiliated with Nintendo or Game Freak and any other companies that write or make Pokemon.
Final Battle!
"I hope it will come to this. I warn you not many people have defeated this pokemon. He was my first pokemon and also my strongest," Red warned, examining his pokeball in his hand.
"I will take what ever you throw at me. Typhlosion was my first pokemon and he is also my most loyal pokemon," Gold cried, holding his pokeball in the air with his right hand.
Red smirked, "If you hadn't notice. When I started battling you I didn't take you seriously. I didn't have my spirit to fight, but after you defeated my Snorlax. I felt something inside of me. I felt the same feeling that made me love battles. I got serious with my Venusaur. With my Venusaur I defeated three of your pokemon. Now you are going to face me with my most powerful pokemon with my fighting spirit." He threw the pokeball in the air and caught with his other hand.
"Well lets the real battle begin. GO TYPHLOSION!" Gold send out his fire pokemon.
"GO CHARIZARD!" Red yelled releasing his starter pokemon. An orange dragon with flames burning vigorously on his tail. Charizard roared his presence.
"Charizard! Do you have to roar every time I send you out?" Red asked while covering his ears.
-"I have to or my opponent won't be intimidated,"- Charizard smirked, letting out a puff of smoke escape his mouth.
Gold took out his pokedex and pointed at Charizard. "Charizard the Flame Pokemon. The hotter the flames burn on a Charizard's tail the stronger they are," informed in a make robotic voice.
The flame on his Charizard's tail looks very bright. That means his Charizard is powerful Gold thought. Typhlosion took a step forward and roared while shooting fire from his collar. Both fire starters stared at each other waiting for their trainer's commands.
-This pokemon doesn't look tough, and the same goes for his trainer. However I can sense Red's fighting spirit. That means this will be a very good battle- Charizard thought smirking. –It's about time I got a good battle.-
"Don't let your guard down, Gold. My Charizard knows a lot of moves. Even moves he can't normally learn," Red informed. "For example, Charizard Mach Punch."
"Intercept Typhlosion," Gold ordered. Charizard took off at an extreme speed and attack Typhlosion. Typhlosion raised one of his hands and grabbed Charizard's Mach Punch in a blink of an eye.
"Thunder Punch right in his face Typhlosion." Raising his other hand with electricity coursing, Typhlosion began to swing at Charizard. Charizard flapped his mighty wings to escape the attack. Charizard landed out of melee range of the lava badger just in time. Typhlosion fired up his collar and roar when he noticed it missed.
"Stone Edge Charizard," Red ordered.
"Protect," Gold quickly ordered. Typhlosion created a transparent shield around him before Charizard could attack. Charizard fired pointed rocks only to be deflected by the Protect.
"Full power Flamethrower," Gold loudly commanded.
"You too Charizard," Red said. Typhlosion's Protect disappeared and opened his mouth while Charizard opened his mouth also. Both pokemon began to fire hot scorching flames. The fire attacks collided and both fire pokemon struggled to gain the upper hand. The Flamethrowers were evenly matched and neither pokemon could push back.
They are evenly matched. How to make it stronger…? Wait I know! Red thought.
"Charizard flap your wings to increase your attack's strength," Red cried.
"Hey you stole my technique," Gold accused, furiously grabbing his hat off his head.
"Hey anybody can use the move. It's not like you're the only who can use it," Red retorted. With his large wings, Charizard began to make strong wind currents. With the wind the Flamethrower expanded and started to push back at Typhlosion's Flamethrower.
"His attack is too strong. Typhlosion switch attacks with Eruption," Gold insisted. Typhlosion's eyes turn to bright red. He halted his attack, and began to concentrate. When the flamethrower was a few feet away Typhlosion unleashed a powerful fire attack that it engulfs the flamethrower. The lava easily overpowered the fire and headed straight towards Charizard.
"Abandon the attack. Fly Charizard." Stopping his attack, Charizard flew straight up avoiding the Eruption.
I need to stop him from always flying from my attacks Gold thought. Wait...I got it!
"Typhlosion use swift." Typhlosion opened his mouth and unleash many gold stars.
"Counter with Air Cutter." Charizard fired v shaped blades of air from his wings. Both attacks collided and exploded. A cloud of smoke formed between Typhlosion and Charizard.
"Use Dragon Rush Charizard. He won't know where it will come from," Red ordered. Charizard flew into the smoke hiding him from view.
"Typhlosion get ready when it appears." Typhlosion grunted in agreement. He waited carefully looking from side to side to see where he might appear. Charizard suddenly flew out of the left side of the cloud. A light blue aura surrounded Charizard's body.
"Smokescreen," Gold exclaimed. Opening his mouth, Typhlosion released black smoke. The smoke rapidly spread. It hid Typhlosion from view before Charizard could attack.
"Blow away the smoke with whirlwind," Red ordered. Charizard stopping his attack began flapping his wings. The smoke cleared away in no time, but Typhlosion was nowhere to be found.
Where could he be? Underground I guess Red thought. "Charizard use Earthquake on the battlefield." Folding his wings, Charizard fell into a steep dive.
"Typhlosion counter with Rock Slide." The ground suddenly burst and Typhlosion popped out. Five giant boulders were hurled at Charizard in the progress when Typhlosion popped out of the ground.
"Break the boulders with Metal Claw." The dragon opened up his wings to catch the air. Stopping in his tracks a silver glow covered Charizard's claws. He slashed at one boulder coming in his way and destroyed it into rubble. The little pieces of rock fell toward the Earth. Charizard destroyed the other four boulders in the same matter.
Rock Slide won't work. I need to get him into close combat Gold pondered.
"Charizard let's try Mega Kick," Red suggested. Charizard nodded in agreement and began dropping with his foot in front of him. A white glow surrounded his foot as he began to get closer to Typhlosion.
"Intercept with Mega Punch than use Thunder Punch," Gold ordered. Typhlosion jumped in the air and connected his fist with Charizard's foot. Both attacks created a blinding white light. When the light faded an orange dragon was lying on the floor with a lava badger standing next to him.
-"Urgh,"- grunted Charizard in pain. He got onto his feet while holding his jaw that was still crackling with electricity from Typhlosion's Thunder Punch.
-"You're going to pay for that. No one ever lasts more than five minutes conscious after they hit me in the face,"- Charizard growled with his eyes turning darker and his flame on his tail grew bigger.
Looks like Charizard wants to fight physically now. Well if he wants to than I will let him Red thought.
"Charizard I know you want to kick his ass. Let's begin with Dragon and Shadow Claw combo," Red ordered. A purple claw made up of shadow material formed on Charizard's left hand and a dark blue aura formed around his right hand. He charged at Typhlosion with his arms crossed in front of him.
"Counter with Crush Claw." Typhlosion extended his arms to counter the attack. A harsh red aura surrounded his claws making them look sharper and longer. Charizard slash out both of his attacks and were stopped by Typhlosion's Crush Claw. Both claws locked with each other and both pokemon began to push. Charizard and Typhlosion claws were against each other with no one giving up.
"Typhlosion push back as hard as you can. You can do it!" Gold encouraged. Typhlosion began to lose ground as Charizard began to push even harder.
"Charizard use all your strength than slash him with your claws," Red ordered.
-"Give it up kid. Your not strong enough to defeat me,"- Charizard remarked and with all his strength pushed Typhlosion. Typhlosion stumbled backwards leaving him open for attack. Charizard took advantage of that and slashed at his chest with his Dragon and Shadow claw attack. Typhlosion fell on the ground a few feet away from his foe.
"Typhlosion get on feet quick. We won't let him win," Gold asserted. Weakly getting up, Typhlosion got onto his feet and shot a glare at Charizard.
He survived my combo. Impressive but that wasn't my strongest attacks Charizard thought. Charizard grinned and quickly ran toward the fire pokemon. He slammed his fist which was covered in fire into Typhlosion's chin. Typhlosion again hit the ground with a thud.
-"Urgh… That hurt…,"- Typhlosion weakly mumbled. He got on his feet again and turn towards Charizard.
"Typhlosion, it is time to use Close Combat. Use every physical attack you can use on the overgrown lizard," Gold ordered.
"Charizard you too use Close Combat. Use any physical attack you want. Just don't let your guard down," Red added.
-Now the real battle starts. He won't know what hit him- Charizard smirked. He began throwing few punches but the lava badger evaded all of them. Typhlosion caught the last punch and slug Charizard in his gut. Charizard stagger backwards but he regained his balance. Typhlosion lunged at Charizard and began to swing at him. Two wings caught him before he could hit. Charizard's wings were clamped onto his opponent leaving him unable to move. He held his opponent in front of him.
-"Now payback for the punch you did to my face,"- Charizard hissed with an evil smirk on his face. Charizard suddenly unleashed a frenzy of punches at Typhlosion. He used all three elemental punches. Typhlosion not being able to move could only take the attacks. He got punched in the stomach, face, anywhere where Charizard could punch.
Gold not able to contain his anger cried, "Typhlosion use your feet." Typhlosion got the message and kicked Charizard between his legs. He immediately let go of Typhlosion while grabbing his crotch.
-"You son of a b…," Charizard got caught off by fury of Crush Claw attacks. Typhlosion was slashing at Charizard's face with his red claws.
-"You better watch…your…language,"- Typhlosion yelled while delivering a final slash that knocked Charizard to the ground. Charizard grunted in pain when he touched his face. He slowly got on his feet while nursing his face.
-"Cheap Shot,"- Charizard murmured. A blue aura formed on both of Charizard's claws. He slashed out at Typhlosion who blocked with his own Crush Claw. Both pokemon began exchanging blows and both blocked each attack. Charizard finally landed a hit across Typhlosion cheek. He quickly swung his tail at the stunned pokemon by turning around. A metallic coating covered his tail as he smacked Typhlosion on his side. Typhlosion was sent sprawling on the ground. Not wasting a moment, Charizard jumped in the air began descending on top of Typhlosion with his fist glowing white.
-He sure is fast- Typhlosion thought opening his eyes a little. He saw Charizard falling towards him. He instantly rolled out of the way making Charizard miss and punch the ground instead.
Typhlosion sigh in relieve that he dodged the attack. Charizard straighten up to face at Typhlosion.
"Typhlosion Roll Out," Gold called out. Obeying, Typhlosion jumped into the air while curling up into a ball and began spinning. He rolled towards Charizard and hit him in his stomach. Typhlosion started to push back at Charizard while he tried to hold his ground against it.
"Charizard try to stop him by using force," Red ordered. Charizard tried to stop the spinning pokemon by grabbing his sides. He tried but couldn't. Typhlosion spinning began to go faster making it harder for Charizard to get a firm grip on him. He tried one more time and finally succeeded and stopped Typhlosion spinning motion. He held Typhlosion upside down in the air.
"Charizard Seismic Toss him to the ground." Charizard hoisted Typhlosion in the air and slammed him into the ground with tremendous strength. The sound of Typhlosion crashing into the ground was loud enough that both trainers heard it clearly.
That must had done a lot of damage. He must be getting weak by now Red thought.
Charizard leaped back after his attack formed two Dragon claws while a silver coating began forming on his wings.
"Typhlosion don't give up. We still haven't showed him our true strength," Gold encouraged his pokemon. In the crater caused by Typhlosion's fall, he stood up straightly. He fired up his collar and showed no signs of being hurt.
His pokemon sure can take a lot of punishment Red thought. Well it looks like my Charizard is ready to finish him off. Let's see how he can counter Charizard's Steel technique.
With furious power, Typhlosion lunged at Charizard with his fist. Charizard protected himself by covering himself with his metal coated wings. Typhlosion punched the steel wings instead and instantly withdrew his hand.
-"Nothing can get pass my steel wing,"- Charizard informed removing his wings. -"In fact I bet it hurt you more than it did me."
-"You're wrong it didn't hurt me at all,"- Typhlosion barked back, while secretly shaking his hand in pain behind his back. Charizard suddenly began his assault with his Dragon Claws. Typhlosion taken by surprise barely escaped the attacks. Typhlosion dodged most of them but got hit by a few. Typhlosion kept on dodging Charizard's attack until he saw an opening. He swung another punch but with Charizard incredible speed he blocked with his steel like wings again.
-"You have to do better than that,"- Charizard mocked.
Those wings of his keep on blocking Typhlosion's attacks. How to get pass it…? Metal conducts electricity to if his wings have metal like properties…than maybe Thunder Punch might work. With his weakness to electricity due to being a Flying type the attack with do quadruple damage Red thought. "Typhlosion use Thunder Punch," Gold ordered. Not hesitating a second, Typhlosion punched Charizard's wings with an electric charged punch. When his fist made contact with Charizard's wing, electricity immediately conducted into his body due to the metal properties. Charizard let out a roar in pain and swung his tail at the fire type.
"Catch it Typhlosion," Gold immediately cried. The lava badger caught the swinging tail using both of his hands.
"Now Typhlosion. The opening we been waiting for," Gold cried out making Red confused.
What is he planning? Red thought. He got his answer when Typhlosion jumped onto Charizard's back ramming his fist between his shoulder blades. His fist was covered in ice when he punched Charizard. The ice began to spread all the area on Charizard's back.
"Charizard try to get him off your back," Red urgently called out figuring out Gold's plan. Charizard complied with Red's order by slamming his wings at Typhlosion on his back, but when he tried to move his wings they barely move an inch. He tried again by using all his strength but to no avail. He tried again but this time by trying to use his tail to attack. When he tried the same results happen again like with his wings his tail couldn't move either.
Hmm. What is wrong with Charizard? He can't move his tail and his wings Red pondered. Red tried to observe Charizard and on closer examination saw electricity coursing through Typhlosion's fist. I get it know. He not only using Ice Punch but using Thunder Punch to cause paralyzing. I get it know. He lured into close combat so he can have a chance to perform his combo. Now Charizard can't fly to avoid any of his attacks. I am such a fool for falling into an obvious trap.
"Charizard shake him off," Red calmly ordered. Charizard swung his shoulders with all his might and threw Typhlosion onto the ground. Most of Charizard's back was frozen solid rendering his wings and tail useless.
"I am such a fool for falling in your trap Gold," Red stated. "You may have stopped my Charizard from flying but we still got tricks up our sleeves."
"I couldn't expected less from you, Red," Gold added. Now that his Charizard is incapable of flying I can attack now without worry he might fly away. I am such a smart ass that I think I should become a professor some day.
"Charizard Sunny day." Charizard formed a red sphere in hands and threw up into the sky. Warm sunlight shortly flooded on the battlefield after that.
He didn't even try to stop the move Red wondered.
Gold patiently waited for Charizard to finish his move. When the Sunny Day was in full effect Gold finally cried his order.
"Typhlosion Rock Slide." Typhlosion punched the ground firing some boulders at Charizard.
"Don't you ever learn? Counter with Metal Claw." Charizard easily broke the boulders with his metal claws.
He still can move as quickly as before we froze his wings. Let see what this new attack my friend gave to me. "Typhlosion lets use Wild Charge," Gold said.
Wild Charge never heard of it. Maybe its one of those new attacks that were recently discovered. Well if that's the case than I am going to use a new move too, Red thought.
Electricity could be seen coursing through Typhlosion's body. Getting ready to attack Red took this time to think of a counter.
"Charizard attack with Purgatory." Charizard cloaked himself in raging fire that grew bigger due to the effects of Sunny Day and charged at Typhlosion. The lava badger saw this and also began running towards him. Both powerful attacks collided and both fire pokemon were sent flying backwards. Typhlosion skidded to a stop and grunted in pain due to the recoil of Wild Charge and Charizard's attack. Charizard landed perfectly on his feet than suddenly dropping to his knees panting.
Charizard is getting very weak. I need to end this quickly Red thought. "Charizard quickly use Dragon Pulse," Red exclaimed. Charizard took a few breathes before firing a purple orb from his gaping mouth.
"Dodge Typhlosion." Jumping at the last second, Typhlosion narrowly escaped the attack.
"Stone Edge," Red immediately ordered. Charizard shot razor sharp rocks as fast as bullets. Typhlosion taken by surprise got hit by many sharp rocks. After the attack, Typhlosion painfully got up. A red glow surrounded his body and the flames around his neck grew bigger.
-Even getting a face full of sharp rocks and the kid still stands up. Remarkable but it looks like he is not going to last any longer- Charizard thought.
Typhlosion is getting very weak. Maybe this combo will knock out his Charizard Gold thought. "Typhlosion Fire Blast than use Quick Attack going through the attack," Gold commanded. Typhlosion let out a growl in agreement.
-"You're going down dragon boy. Your title as strongest pokemon is mine now,"- Typhlosion dangerously hissed. He spat out a giant fire ball that grew out limbs. The fire attack resembled a stick figure. Typhlosion sprinted and ran into the Fire Blast. The fire didn't hurt Typhlosion but instead cloaked his body.
"Dodge it quickly Charizard," Red demanded knowing the deadliness of the combo. Charizard by instinct immediately tried to fly away but he forgot about his wings being frozen and paralyzed. Typhlosion slam into Charizard with his body on fire. With the attack being power up by the Sun's rays and his ability Blaze, it was enough to activate Charizard's own Blaze ability. He fell onto the ground with his Blaze ability glowing.
For a moment Charizard became stunned. –I had never felt this weak before in a long time. My Blaze ability feels weird after a long time not being activated- Charizard thought.
Oh no! Charizard must be stunned by being in a weak state Red thought. "Hey Charizard! Snap out of it. Remember we won't go down until it's over. The vow that we will always try our hardest in any battle," Red cried trying to encourage his speechless pokemon. Charizard suddenly snapped back into reality and quickly got on his feet. We his spirit lifted again he roared.
Charizard has his Blaze ability. There is only one move Charizard like using during his Blaze ability Red smirked. Time to finally end this. Let's see if Typhlosion can handle it.
"Charizard lets go in a bang. Use your strongest technique. Blast Burn," Red cried out with great emotion.
"Typhlosion you also use Blast Burn," Gold shouted with anxiety building up. The fire on Typhlosion's collar and on Charizard's tail exponentially grew. Both fire starters open their jaws a released a large amount of fire. The fire quickly spread across the field, incinerated everything in the way. The attack soon covered both pokemon and the entire battlefield. The Blast Burn attacks were so big and bright that Gold thought everyone in Kanto and Johto can see it.
Whoa! I bet my mom could see this from her house Gold thought wiping the sweat forming on his face. The attack soon died down leaving smoke behind. Come on Typhlosion I know your still standing.
The smoke soon cleared and a figure was still standing in the clearing. Gold observed closer and saw it was Charizard barely being able to stand up. The ice on his back was now melted.
Charizard made it Red gladly thought. But where is Typhlosion? Another figure stepped out of the smoke. Typhlosion looked unharmed by the attack.
Charizard smiled at Typhlosion. -"You were a great opponent kid. I hope we can battle aga…," Charizard muttered before falling unconscious.
"Charizard!" Red cried in alarm. He ran up to his fallen pokemon. He held him for a while before returning him into his respectful pokeball. "How did Typhlosion avoided getting hurt during the attack?"
Gold took a deep breathe before explain. "You see fire attacks don't work on Typhlosion. His fur can resist any type of heat," Gold gladly explained.
"But how did Charizard's Flamethrower and Fire Punch hurt him?" Red questioned.
"He didn't get hurt by the flames but by the force of the Flamethrower and the fist," Gold explained while liking the way he sounded smart.
"Hmmm… I got to start using my Pokedex more often," Red mumbled. Changing his attitude Red face Gold with his hand outstretched. Gold walked up to him and shook it.
"Good battle Red but I won," Gold said. His Typhlosion walked to his side with a silly grin on his face.
"Good battle Gold. I have never fought a more heated battle in my life. You changed me Gold. I regain my spirit to battle thanks to you," Red added. Fixing his hat he began walking toward the cave.
"Hey where are you going?" Gold asked for a change.
"Pokemon center. My pokemon are in bad condition because of you," Red said waving his pokeball in the air not turning around as he disappeared into the cave. Gold ran after him with his Typhlosion weakly following behind. When he entered the cave he saw Red standing in front of many pokemon lying on the floor.
"What happen?" Gold thought out loud.
"Look up," Red simply answered. Gold looked up and saw a hole big enough for a human to crawl into that lead to the outside. Water leaked on the sides of the tunnel.
Ampharos must have dug to deep into the mountain Gold instantly thought looking at all the sleeping pokemon on the floor.
Well that the final chapter. What do you think? I had writer's block in the middle but I got over it and made this chapter the longest one.
I am also going to start a new story. If people like it than I am going to write more. More information on the story is on my profile. So be waiting for it.
