Out of the ball popped out a red lizard with a flame on its tail.
"Charmeleon!" it cried. It took a while to stare down the Metagross trying to intimidate it with the power of its will.
Ok buddy, let's start out with flamethrower!
Charmeleon shot flames from its mouth just as Houndoom did, but this flamethrower was much stronger. They crashed into Metagross as it struggled to get up.
"What a powerful attack!" observed Max.
"That flamethrower was rival to that of a Charizard." Stated Brock.
Metagross Zen headbutt.
Metagross charged again head first with a psychic attack.
Block it with metal claw!
Charmeleon's claws glew in a metallic light. It crossed the claws in front of itself as it took the attack from Metagross. Charmeleon was pushed back but still stood standing.
Now flamethrower!
Charmeleon launched a close range fire attack that incinerated the Metagross.
"Metagross is unable to battle, Charmeleon is the winner!"
The crowd roared as the powerful Metagross had been eliminated. Caitlin returned her powerhouse steel type and pulled out her last pokemon.
"Go Gothitelle!" she called as her final pokemon took its place on the battlefield.
Gothitelle use psychic.
Gothitelle's eyes lit up as a light outlined Charmeleon making it suffer.
Flamethrower!
Charmeleon fired several flames from its mouth making direct contact with Gothitelle.
Use payback!
Gothitelle hit back Charmeleon with twice the power of the flamethrower.
"That's going to cause a lot damage." Said Brock
"Yeah, but Tyler can totally do this, right?" Ash asked not even sure that he believed what he said.
"Well she is an elite 4 member after all." Quoted Max.
Now use flatter.
Gothitelle sent red waves across the battle field as it confused Charmeleon.
Now thunderbolt.
Gothitelle fired electricity from its body causing a lot of damage to Charmeleon
Use psychic again.
Once again a telekinetic attack inflicted pain on Charmeleon it was now face down in the dirt, recovered from the confusion but left with little strength.
"I guess that's it." Said Gary.
"That's it?! How can you say such a thing." Snapped Dawn.
"Face it, it's over." Gary said in a low tone.
Everyone looked out on the battlefield with Charmeleon face down in the dirt, when suddenly it was enveloped in a fiery aura.
"Wait, is that?" Ash said hesitantly.
Now use blast burn!
Charmeleon fired a small red fireball from its mouth at Gothitelle. The second it made contact it exploded in to a huge fiery inferno. The audience was in awe as Gothitelle was wrapped in flames. Once the fire had extinguished Gothitelle was on the ground motionless.
"Gothitelle is unable to battle, Charmeleon wins and victory goes to Tyler from Blackthorn city!"
The crowd went nuts over what they just saw, a defeat of 1 of the Unova elite 4.
"I can't believe it, Gothitelle was knocked out in 1 hit." Cried Max.
"I can when you add up the evidence." Explained Gary. "That Charmeleon is a pretty strong pokemon. Add up the fact that it was strong, blast burn Was its own type and the special attack it got from flatter AND the power added from blaze made that one powerful fire attack."
"I'll admit, he is a lot smarter than I thought." admitted Iris.
"So he advances to round 2 with Brock." Declared Max.
"I wonder who else." Said Ash.
Now that day 1 has come to a close we now know the 1st 8 trainers that will advance to round 2. And here they are! Congratulations!
Brock
Paul
Winnona
Benga
Wally
Volkner
Tyler
Lance
"So Brock and Tyler both secured a spot in the top 64." Recapped Dawn.
"Yeah, so did Paul." noticed Ash.
"Ok it's getting late, Let's go back to the pokemon centre." Suggested Brock.
"Ok!" the group said in unison.
