Chapter 10: A Breakthrough in Pokemon

Roark through his signature pokemon out after Geodude was OHKOed. Roark thought that if he could just get Aron out of the way then Jaxs' next pokemon would be a piece of cake. This wasn't as easy as it turned out to be.

"Cranidos use Pursuit and then follow up and use Head-butt." Roark ordered.

Jaxs countered by letting Aron take both of the hits because neither of them where going to do more than 7 hit points. Roark was finally realizing that Aron had way to high of a Defense to do any damage, so he tried going strategic.

"Quick, Cranidos hit those boulders over there and make them go flying at Aron."

Jaxs ordered: "Aron, when those boulders come near you jump and run on them. Try to jump from one to the other. After you get near him try using Iron Head and taking him out."

The two pokemon did what they were told and it ended up being a chaotic scene. Aron was about to hit Cranidos when a boulder hit the two and sent them flying. Cranidos' head was stuck in the wall and Aron was stuck under Cranidos' body. Neither of the pokemon could get out. This made the Referee jump in to call the situation.

"Since none of the pokemon on the field are able to battle, but defeat I am calling this a draw. The trainers are now allowed to recall their pokemon, but they cannot use the same ones again." The Referee finally said.

Jaxs threw out Duskull from his pokeball and Roark looked surprise at the choice.

"You made an interesting choice there." Roark stated.

"Well, uhh, how do I put this? Duskull is my only choice. But to me it doesn't really matter because either way I am determined to get this badge." Jaxs said. The boy now looked at Duskull and gave him the command of using a Faint Attack on Onix.

"Quick Onix use dodge whatever is coming!" Roark said, but he knew that Onix couldn't dodge an attack that he didn't even know what to expect.

Duskull zoomed towards Onix and zigzagged towards the lumbering stone beast, which in turn tried to wiggle away from Duskull. The ghost pokemon easily found its mark on Onix and landed a perfect punch which Onix took heavy damage from. Onix swayed a bit and then shook his head. The stone snake had successfully survived the attack.

"Wow, that Onix is just a Physical Tank. Well I guess that he couldn't be anything else." Jaxs thought silently to himself. "Okay Duskull, let's finish this with Ominous Wind!"

Roark didn't even try to let Onix escape because he knew that Jaxs' Duskull was way too powerful for Onix to even put a dent in. As the Gym Leader thought of his defeat Duskull landed his wind attack on Onix for a critical hit. Onix finally fell down. Jaxs' eyes grew big in surprise and he leaped off of the ground and shook his fist in the air like the Olympic Swimmers. He was over filled with happiness. Roark walked over and congratulated him.

"I believe since you have beaten me that you deserve this badge." Roark said whilst handing him the Coal Badge. "I also believe that a Pokemon Trainer as well trained as you are should have this" Roark handed him a Technical Machine. "This contains TM76, which is Stealth Rock. Stealth Rock is when the pokemon lays a trap of rocks by the Pokemon's feet. Any pokemon that switches in is hurt by these sharp rocks and depending on how weak the pokemon is against rock types, the more or less damage will be taken." Roark's last words were.

Jaxs thanked Roark for the best Gym Battle so far (well actually the only Gym Battle so far ) and then left the Gym. Kate ran up to him and jumped into his arms.

"You did so well!" she exclaimed. She looked into Jaxs' eyes and they both connected for a second. She started to blush and hopped off of Jaxs. Jaxs also blushed. The two walked off and decided not to talk about what happened. Instead they both held hands and walked over to the Pokemon Center.
