"No way! Snivy and Gible evolved?" Ash exclaimed.
Servine and Gabite blocked Oak's face to see hi to Ash. They had big smiles on their faces.
"I'm so proud of you guys," Ash grinned.
"So do you think you're going to win?" Oak asked between pushing the grass snake and dragon out of his way.
"Well now I'm not sure, because Alain told me he caught a new Pokémon between matches, and it's not Sharpedo," Ash replied. "What's more, Astrid now has the Pokémon she used a long time ago in our 3-3 battle. They're really fitting the 3-3 thing," he added.
"Well you have a longer range of Pokémon. And remember not everyone knows all of your team yet, especially not with Tyranitar on your team. That reminds me, do you need me to send over any Pokémon?"
"Actually…" Ash said.
"Altaria, use Flamethrower!" Nathan shouted.
The dragon-fairy shot flames out of her mouth, completely demolishing the health of the injured Scrafty.
"Scrafty is unable to battle! Altaria wins, and the match goes to Nathan of Secret Island!"
"That was the first match, and now it's Alain vs Ash!" MC Johnny announced.
Alain and Ash proudly walked up to their spots in the battlefield with a Pokeball in hand.
"Battle begin!" the judge shouted.
"Go!" Alain called out, throwing out a Pokeball. Ash was quite surprised to see the Fang Scorp Pokémon flying right in front of him.
"This is the Pokémon I was talking about," smirked Alain, as Gliscor soared in front of Ash to greet him like Roxie's Koffing. Ash put up his Pokedex and pointed it at Gliscor.
"Gliscor, the Fang Scorp Pokémon. When it sees prey, it remains above it. When it gets its chance to strike, it swoops down to catch it," chirped the Pokedex.
Hmmm, Ash thought. He took out a Pokeball and smirked. "Go Tyranitar!"
The rock-dinosaur emerged from the Pokeball and let out a loud rawr.
"What's this, folks? It's the pseudo-legendary of Johto itself, Tyranitar!"
Instead of gasping, most of the audience let out rawrs of their own. These were encouraging rawrs.
"Tyranitar, let's start out with Dragon Dance!" Ash commanded.
Tyranitar nodded and surrounded himself with intense blue and purple lightning, then the dinosaur got surrounded in red aura to confirm his attack and speed had rose.
"Now use Stone Edge!" Ash called.
Tyranitar then covered itself with speedy sharp stones, and then allowed them to soar towards Gliscor with incredible speed and power thanks to Dragon Dance.
"Use Guillotine!" Alain shouted. Gliscor went rushing towards the soaring sharp stones with glowing-white pincers, completely cracking the stones like coconuts. He didn't stop there.
"Oh dear! Guillotine is a 1-hit KO! Ash will have to think quickly!" MC Johnny shouted.
"I'm used to quick thinking under pressure," Ash smiled. "Tyranitar, use Dark Pulse!"
Tyranitar roared, and a horizontal aura shoot of darkness with rings in it came shooting out of his mouth, not only pushing Gliscor back, but Guillotine itself. Tyranitar then suddenly breathed out Flamethrower, quickly learning it.
"You learned Flamethrower!" Ash cheered. Gliscor was scorched in the fire from Flamethrower, and this caused a burn.
"Use Façade!" Alain shouted. Gliscor got surrounded in yellow, fiery aura, then stroke Tyranitar in the stomach with his head.
"Façade's power rises if the user has a status condition!" MC Johnny grinned.
"How did Alain know that Tyranitar was going to learn Flamethrower?" Serena wondered aloud.
"I didn't, but I just thought I would teach it that just in case," Alain smirked.
"Huh..." Mairin murmured.
"Something wrong, Mairin?" Trevor questioned.
"Oh nothing. It's just that Alain's normally very serious and scary, but now he's smiling a lot more…" Mairin explained.
"Have you noticed that he started doing this when he became good friends with Ash and Serena? They're pretty good influences, so maybe making friends and battling more with them is cheering him up. If that isn't the case, what is?" Trevor answered, with Mairin clearly agreeing.
"Stay strong and use Hyper Beam!" Ash shouted. Tyranitar breathed out a beam of powerful light at Gliscor.
"Head straight in using Aerial Ace!" Alain shouted.
"IS HE CRAZY?" Mairin screamed. Ash and even Tyranitar were very confused as to why Alain told him to do that. Gliscor headed into Hyper Beam with multiple strikes of white lines following him.
"Now spin while heading through that beam!" Alain commanded. Gliscor – still using Aerial Ace – span while moving forward through the Hyper Beam. Gliscor was slightly taking damage, though it had seemed like he was using a move called Aerial Beam, meaning completely making the move his.
Tyranitar used his common sense and stopped using Hyper Beam, but the Hyper Beam was surrounding Gliscor.
"UNBELIEVABLE! IT'S AS IF TYRANITAR NEVER USED HYPER BEAM IN THE FIRST PLACE, BUT GLISCOR CREATED A NEW MOVE INSTEAD!" MC Johnny screamed.
"Use Flamethrower!" Ash panicked. Tyranitar breathed a giant beam of flames, but of course Gliscor soared into it, taking even more damage. Tyranitar didn't stop breathing fire though.
When the two collided, a huge explosion occurred on Ash's side. When the smoke finally cleared, Tyranitar and Gliscor were both left unconscious.
"Both are unable to battle! It's a draw!" the judge announced. Both trainers withdrew their Pokémon into their Pokeballs.
"That was…interesting…" Serena uttered, as if she was literally paralyzed.
"Touche. This battle could be anyone's guess…" Astrid agreed.
"Go Sharpedo!" Alain shouted, throwing a Pokeball and summoning the second-newest Pokémon Alain caught.
"Ready to go, Pikachu?" Ash asked his best friend. Pikachu smiled and chirped as he jumped off Ash's shoulder onto the battlefield.
"Pikachu's gonna have the advantage, right?" Tierno grinned.
"Maybe, but it's an equal match for intelligence between the two trainers," Trevor replied.
"Let's start off with Electro Ball!" Ash called.
Pikachu jumped and flipped, while firing a ball made of electricity at the shark.
"Use Night Slash," Alain said, calmly.
Sharpedo's fin glowed black, then he scythed the Electro Ball into pieces.
"Unbelievable! Sharpedo's Night Slash completely demolished that Electro Ball!" MC Johnny screamed in awe.
"Use Hydro Pump," Alain commanded, quietly.
Sharpedo breathed an outburst of strong water at Pikachu, attempting to 1-hit knock him out.
"Pikachu, use Thunderbolt on the ground!" Ash shouted.
"Huh?" Alain remarked.
Pikachu turned his head to Ash and happily nodded; getting excited for another one of Ash's surprise strategies. Pikachu fired an electric blast at the ground, which launched him into the air, making him soar towards Sharpedo as if it was a Cosplay Pikachu using Flying Press.
"Use Thunderbolt on yourself!" Ash smiled.
"Hey?" Trevor questioned.
Pikachu fired a Thunderbolt on the ceiling, and then reflected on Pikachu. Fortunately, it wasn't very effective, but surrounded Pikachu in cackling electricity.
"Now use Iron Tail!" Ash commanded.
Pikachu embedded his tail in pure steel, and the electricity somehow travelled to the tail, surrounded it and turning into an improvised move which could be called Thunder Tail. Pikachu slayed Sharpedo, causing big time damage.
"That's one of the cleverest things I have ever seen!" MC Johnny roared.
I certainly don't blame him for saying that, Alain thought. "Use Aqua Jet!" he shouted.
"Use Volt Tackle!"
The two determined Pokémon came rushing towards each other, one surrounded in rushing water, and one surrounded in rushing electricity. The tension was…well tense I guess…
They collided, and only Pikachu came out of the electric-watery explosion, getting the recoil damage from Volt Tackle and extra damage from colliding it with Sharpedo's Aqua Jet.
"Use Poison Fang!" Alain commanded.
Sharpedo soared towards Pikachu with glowing purple teeth, but Pikachu managed to dodge it, despite his bad condition.
"Now use Hydro Pump!" Alain shouted. Sharpedo launched a giant, horizontal flow of water towards Pikachu, and the electric rodent looked so weak he couldn't escape.
"Use Thunderbolt!" Ash screamed. Pikachu found enough energy to unleash some electricity to counter Sharpedo's Hydro Pump. An explosion occurred at the middle of the move collision.
"Pikachu is unable to battle! Sharpedo is also unable to battle! This battle is a draw!" the judge announced. "Again!" he added.
"Another tie?" MC Johnny questioned. "This is getting intense!"
The fighters both withdrew their Pokémon. Ash gave Pikachu to Astrid to take care of him. Ash turned his hat, which any good friend, foe or fan would know that means Ash is ready to get crazy.
"Go Charizard!" they both shouted, revealing both of one of their closest friends. The two pseudo-dragons roared in enthusiasm for the battle.
