The Battle, Lost, Training, Rematch, & Outcome pt. 1

"Begin!" Flint, the official shouted beginning the match

"Go! Geodude!" Brock shouted, calling forth a rock with a face and two muscular arms.

"Geodude, the rock pokemon, and rock/ground-type. It camouflages itself from people by burying half of its body. Because of what its body is made of, it is heavier, denser, and harder than most rocks," the pokedex explained when Ash took it out.

"I knew he would go with a rock-type, so I'll just go with Mudkip," Ash said bringing his Mudkip out.

Mudkip began with a water gun, but Geodude stopped it with a rock throw attack. The flung rocks stopped the attack by acting as a shield. Geodude then used rollout and charged straight for Mudkip. Ash ordered Mudkip to use a water gun, thinking Geodude was defenseless against a water gun. However, Brock had Geodude to go behind the rocks of the gym while rolling. Geodude's speed and density made it able to go through the rocks without slowing down. The strategy of making Geodude use rollout through the rocks is so Geodud would have a shield against the water attack and he wouldn't have to stop or slow down. The pulverized boulders would be used as shields just like the rock throw, and when he went through them Geodude then gone to the next one until he hit Mudkip. When Geodude struck Mudkip he became so fast and so strong from hitting all of the rocks, that Mudkip couldn't dodge it. However, because Geodude was rolling at full power, his rollout stopped. The moment Geodude stopped, Mudkip used water gun. The critical hit was enough to knock out Geodude. Ash had to be careful now because one more hit and Mudkip was done for.

The pokemon Brock used next was Onix. "Onix, the rock snake pokemon, and rock/ground-type. Onix travels underground at 50 mph. Its rugged body and great speed it possesses underground, causes tremors and strikes fault lines." The pokedex said.

When Flint ordered the match to begin, Mudkip charged toward Onix.Onix used rock throw, but it was bigger than Geodude's rock throw, but Ash figured out how to bypass. Mudkip used a powerful water gun at the base of big lower rock. This caused a chain reaction that turned the rocks into a ramp that Mudkip used to run up on. Mudkip used water gun, but Onix used dig and quickly went underground. When Onix came up, it got Mudkip in a bind. Mudkip got out of the bind by using growl then water gun on the tail. Mudkip tried to hit Onix's head to finish him, but Onix dodged it with ease. Onix then used rock polish to boost his speed. Onix dug underground again. The suspense became too much for Ash and Mudkip destracting them from Onix in front of Mukip. Onix prepared to use bind but Mudkip jumped it. Onix then went back underground, and came back up behind Mudkip and knocked out Mudkip with rock throw.

Ash had to return Mudkip and choose a different one. Ash then thought to himself, 'Pikachu won't be able to make a scratch on that thing, and Pidget will be knocked out faster then Mudkip. Of course Pidgey should do more damage than Pikachu. Well I might as well try it."

"Go! Pidgey!" Ash shouted, calling the tiny bird to come out.

"You do know that rock-types bring down a flyer in one hit with ease, don't you," Brock explained about his actions.

"I know that but I got a plan."

"Oh I see you know that, but the only pokemon that can take on mine was that Mudkip. Oh well I hope you can make due."

The match then begun with Onix throwing rocks at Pidgey, but Pidgey was fast enough to dodge them. Pidgey then used gust and a giant tornado struck Onix. Brock then realized that Ash chose Pidgey because Onix is part ground. Brock had Onix dig underground, and Onix came up beneath Pidgey. Pidgey was already high enough to avoid Onix's surprise attack. Onix then used rock throw, but Pidgey dodged the attack again. Pidgey struck Onix with another gust. Onix was only one or two more gust away from fainting, however, the last rock throw was threw in the air, and came crashing down on Pidgey. Ash lost the match.

Oooooooooooo

At the pokemon center, Ash was waiting for his pokemon to be healed. While Misty was tring to cheer up Ash by saying that he could catch a new pokemon or train his pokemon to learn new attacks, a mysterious man walked up to them.

The man was tanned had a dark beard, and wore white miner gloves and a red hard hat. The said to Ash, "If you want to defeat Brock, I can help you."

A/N The longest chapter of this series, and written in four days. The next one will be up quicker, but not today. Also I need ideas for Mt. Moon, a story for Ash's next two pokemon (no ideas for them because I know what they are. They're starters), and a suggestion for Ash' sixth pokemon. Tell me now cause the more Ideas given the qucker the chapters after the next will come out. Arigato!
