Here is the next chapter for Aura Unova Adventure and would like to thank everyone who has reviewed so far, so with that out of the way let's begin.
"Great the sooner we get to Nimbasa the sooner I can go shopping," Hilda said as they crossed the town, "Get out of the way!" a familiar voice screamed at the top of her lungs but before they could turn Ash jumped away before he was sent to the river. "How many times do I have to tell you not to run with a skirt of that length," Hilda said as Bianca got back up, "Sorry I was in a rush to get to the competition," the blonde female said, "What do you mean competition?" Iris asked, "Oh they're having a fishing competition in town so I wanted to get there before the sign ups close," she said showing the ad for it. "That may be a good idea as I could use some more water types," Ash said, "No way big brother I'm going to go get a water pokémon before you do," Hilda challenged resulting in a stare down, "I swear you're both acting like little kids," Iris sighed, "But it would be a fun try," she added. "So let's go," Bianca cheered dashing away with Ash behind her followed by Iris then Hilda and arriving they spotted a lot of fishermen as well as other people hoping to get a water type or two, but to Ash something felt wrong like he was in one of Jessie, James, and Meowth's schemes, "Now that I think about it why didn't the others and I see that it was clearly Team Rocket but I do have to hand it to James. I only wore a dress twice but it seemed like he was wearing them for most of the schemes the three of them come up with," Ash thought.
Stepping up to the registration desk they handed in their registration forms, "Hi we would like to enter in the competition," Hilda said not noticing the person stationed at the desk froze, but Ash certainly did. "Of course now everything seems to be in order now please select a fishing rod and take these fishing pokéballs," he said showing them rows of fishing rods then presented the pokéballs, "Now once you fished in a water pokémon battle them in the space designed for battles then catch them," he informed them then added, "The winner will receive the limited addition golden fishing rod." Skeptical as Ash knew of a super rod this 'golden rod' was a bit fishy and he was also clued in with the workers were started to get nervous.
Nodding in thanks the four sent off and set up camp nearest the battle area, "Man this is getting boring," Iris said yawning, "What were you expecting Iris? Pokémon right off the bat, no fishing is an art that requires patients and a keen eye," Ash said. "Big brother I have a bite what do I do," Hilda asked, "Now reel it in before it gets away," Ash said and doing just that a blue stripped pokémon appeared with a green, ovoid body, tapering off in the rear to a trapezoidal tail fin. A thick black stripe covers the top of their body from mouth to tail and a white, dorsal fin with four protrusions resembling spikes. Their lower jaw juts ahead of their upper jaw, with a small indent near the edges of their mouth. Both forms have three black dots on both sides of their body, behind their pectoral fins. "Alright what pokémon are you?" Ash said to himself pointing his gauntlet at it.
Basculin, the Hostile Pokémon. Basculin can be very violent and red and blue Basculin do not get along well, frequently resulting in battles.
"Sound like the Siviper and Zangoose," Ash noted, "Now Stunfisk I choose you," the little sister figure of Ash said revealing her recently caught pokémon, "Stunfisk is a Ground Electric type pokémon so Hilda should have no problems in catching it," Ash said. "Alright Stunfisk use Thunderbolt," Hilda instructed directing a critical hit, "Now go pokéball," once inside the pokéball there was three shakes then a ding signaling a capture, "Wow on the first try as well," Hilda said after some thought. Soon after the group saw other trainers also catching Basculin but some other pokémon not native to the region, "Iris don't you even dare try and swim," Ash said seeing the jungle girl take off her shoes and socks, "What do you mean?" she asked, "Rules state that you must use the fishing rod to catch the fish so no swimming," Ash said receiving a sigh from the dragon master in training. Going to a different part of the dock Ash cast his line only for it to tug a minute later, "Wow a bite so soon," Bianca cheered but instead of having to reel it in the pokémon jumped out of the water heading straight for Ash.
"Big Brother," Hilda gasp seeing the pokémon wrap its tentacles around his body, and seeing as Ash's arm is covered Bianca scanned the pokémon.
Frillish, the Floating Pokémon. Frillish can constrict its foes using its veil-like tentacles and numb them with poison. It is said to live in dens some five miles below sea level. Frillish is a jellyfish-like Pokémon resembling young royalty. Regardless of gender, it has a round head with a crown-like tuft and five tentacle-like appendages. It has oval eyes with white pupils, and a collar around its neck, but the color of this pokémon is pink indicating that it was a female.
"And judging by the color this pokémon is a female," Hilda said looking at her own pokédex, "Man this is like Meganium," Ash said struggling to get out of the tentacles. "Hilda tickle the spot where the tentacles meet the head," confused Hilda did as told causing the pokémon to start laughing but with the hold loosen Ash grabbed it then tossed it into the battle area. The commotion was enough for a crowd to form letting the workers pack up the pack up and not bothering to throw the pokémon back into the river, but in their haste, they didn't notice that Ash caught the water pokémon then made their way to the tent. Noticing that there was no one inside the group heard that the fish marks on the pokéballs were only a sticker, but it was here that Ash noticed two people trying to get to their boat, "Stop right there," he yelled launching Gallade and holding them down with Psychic. "Alright let's see who you really are," Ash said and when he did so he wasn't surprised to see that it was the one and only Team Plasma.
After their arrest, everyone found out that the so called golden rod was actually an old rod painted gold, but despite the fact, Ash decided to keep the Frillish he captured.
Reaching the next city Hilda suddenly let out a squeal, "Firs ouch and second what's gotten you to suddenly squeal?" Ash asked, "It's the newest movie in the Wonder Fighters series and it's out right now," she said. As they were talking Hilda squealed once more as the actress in the movie was standing right behind them but then morphed into Iris, "Wait a minute," Ash began but then 'Iris' giggled morphing into Hilda, "Now I know what you are," giggling once more 'Hilda' morphed once again to reveal a small quadrupedal Pokémon that resembles a fox cub, and slightly resembles a black cat. It has large triangular ears and a short snout with a tiny black nose, and furry whisker-like tufts of fur that protrude from either side of its face. This pokémon's eyes are teal colored with red eyelids; it has circular red patches above its eyes, but the body is covered mainly in slate-gray fur. It has a deep gray fluffy mane around its neck and a tuft of red-tipped fur atop its head that resembles a flame. It has small red-tipped paws and feet with no visible digits and a short fluffy gray tail.
Zorua, the Tricky Fox Pokémon. Zorua hides its true form by changing its shape into people and pokémon, and it loves to surprise people.
"Zorua there you are," a male voice said causing the little pokémon to panic morphing into a Pikachu, but Ash handed the real one to Hilda, "So you morphed into a Pikachu huh," the boy said going for the fake Pikachu, but it jumped into Iris' hair. "Alright if you want to play it that way then Zorua return," the boy said; however, Zorua jumped out of the beam before changing back launching a Shadow Ball creating a smoke. "Looks like we'll have to cancel shooting today," he said depressed before turning to the three, "I'm sorry about all of this, I'm Luke and my dream is to be an aspiring to become a famous movie director with the help of my team which includes the Zorua you just saw and the pokémon next to me," Luke said pointing to the pokémon right next to him. The pokémon is a light, blue, bulky robot-like Pokémon, with yellow lights and a blue diamond with a spiral pattern on his stomach. It has stubby rocks for feet and big, bulky arms. It has asymmetrical eyes, which is a characteristic only found in its evolutionary line.
Golett, the Automation Pokémon. It's said that Golett was instructed to protect people and pokémon with in the ancient civilization who created it.
"Now this is a pokémon that I can get behind," Ash whistled, "Can you tell me the gender of Zorua?" Hilda asked, "Why would that be important?" he asked, "It means everything as when we first met Zorua turned into Iris and Hilda so that means Zorua is a girl," Ash explained. "That would explain why Zorua only turned into the female characters and would refuse to turn into the female ones," Luke said then dashed towards the old movie theater followed by everyone else. Once they were inside a blonde haired female wearing a flawless white dress stood on the stage, "That's Princess Yuria the leading role in my movie," Luke explained but Zorua heard it turning back to its original form growling at them. "Zorua please tell me the reason you ran away was because I was telling you to play the male roles as well," Luke asked receiving a bark, "Then I'll only allow you to play the female ones only," happy the little rascal jumped landing in Luke's hands, "But how can I make a movie with only one character," he wondered.
"Hey if you'll allow it can I play the evil step sister?" Hilda asked, "You want to be part of my movie?" he asked the group, "Sure can I be the wondering female adventurer?" Iris asked, "Sure of course but what role do you want to play Ash," Luke asked. "What role do you have left?" he asked, "Well I do have the villain roll left," Luke pointed out, "How about the evil step sister hires the villain to capture the princess but was stopped by the young heroine," Hilda thought out loud. "That could work I'll just have to modify the script a bit and we'll be set," Luke said, "Hey Luke there's a production room out back and you're welcome to use it," the old man said from his place in the projection room, "Thanks Mr. Matthews and now Leavanny come on out and make costumes for everyone," he instructed.
Soon after while Luke was rewriting the script everyone else was working on making the props, setting up the scenes, creating the costumes, and reviewing the scenes, but while making the props Emolga and Servine tussled around spilling paint on their trainers. "Finally the new script is almost done," Luke declared holding the script in his hand, "Alright while I don't have the title just yet here's how it goes; it all starts with two princesses being born the youngest with a mysterious power and the other without. With the powers found within the oldest child everyone, including her own parents, thought she was a witch and cast her out of the royal family, so enraged at her parents she dived into the dark arts of her people and was unheard of for years later. But upon hearing of her younger sisters crowning ceremony she hired the villain to kidnap the princess; however, upon doing so he was soon caught by a female adventurer. After a series of encounters, they finally made it to the elder sister's castle, which was created by said sister's magic, where after the first half of the fight the elder sister realized her mistake when the youngest was struck down and joined the heroes. Upon seeing that the deal was over the villain revealed to have the same powers as the elder sister, but when all seemed lost the adventurer had her Emolga fire an attack while the villain was distracted. But before celebrations could begin the castle started to fall, and escaping the younger sister pleaded for the eldest to return home but the eldest refused declaring that she has done a lot of harm and wish to travel to redeem herself," Luke explained (RK: yes looking on this I realized that this is like Frozen but a bit different).
Ash whistled, "Wow you really thought this out didn't you," he said causing Luke to blush. When they started filming Ash was a good actor remembering all of his lines to the point, and while Hilda and Iris were a bit nervous Luke and Ash were patient with them understanding that it can be a bit nerve wrecking for first timers. Thankfully the group was able to finish the movie without any interruptions and Luke was able to put them together quite nicely. As this was their first movie it was understandable that everyone was nervous but Mr. Matthews reassured them that everything would work out well, and when the credit scene ended everything was quiet then a child started to clap soon followed by everyone in the room, the movie was a huge success.
"Hey, Luke do you mind if I get a copy to deliver it to my girlfriend in Kanto?" Ash asked, "Sure and here are your copies as well," Luke said handing the three DVDs. Weighing what to do next it was Mr. Matthews that told them about a tournament, "There's a tournament starting soon?" Hilda asked, "Yeah it's going to be held in Nimbasa Town and registration is only in a couple days," the old man informed them. "And according to my gauntlet it'll only take us only two days to reach Nimbasa Town," Ash said, "Do you guys mind if I come with you?" Luke asked, "Sure it should be fun," Hilda answered.
Allowing them to stay in his house for the night Mr. Matthews helped Ash cook dinner and let him use the Video Phone, "Hey Annie are you there?" Ash asked, "Yes I'm here Ashy what's up?" Anabel asked. "I wanted to send you a DVD I helped created and wanted to inform you about the tournament coming in Nimbasa Town in a few days," he answered, "Sure I'll watch you on TV and I have the movie uploaded," she said then the couple started to talk about random topics and finally bid each other good night.
"So Luke are you already thinking about another movie?" Hilda asked, "Yeah but this is going to be a documentary about the life of a trainer," he answered. "Do you want to start recording now?" Ash asked getting up from his resting spot, "What do you mean?" the director in training asked, "Because I'm about to do some training," Ash declared revealing Mismagius and Gallade. "Alright with both of you weak against Ghost type attacks I want you both to use them and Mismagius include Flying type attack and Gallade do the same but with Dark," Ash instructed receiving nods, "Why have your pokémon attack with the moves they're weakest to?" Hilda asked, "This is what I call resistance training because by allowing them to be attacked by moves they're weakest to they'll slowly gain a resistance to them making them less effective," Ash explained. "Man this is a gold mine," Luke said filming the three trainers spar and he even caught scenes of Ash sparring with an Infernape.
Soon the group of four finally arrived in Nimbasa Town, "So where is the Battle Tournament going to be held?" Ash asked, "By the Battle Club," Luke answered. Thinking about the battle against Trip back in Luxuria Town Ash didn't register the words that were screamed until he was sent into a nearby fountain, "Luke this is Bianca a friend of ours," Hilda introduced as Iris helped Ash out of the fountain. "So by you being here, I take it that you're going to enter the tournament?" Ash asked receiving a nod, "Then this is Luke a friend we just met a few days back," he introduced and not for long Bianca adored Zorua. Finding their way to the registration they spotted trainers everywhere and some had really strong pokémon with them letting others know that the competition would be tough. Finding out that they had to choose only three pokémon, "Well, of course, I'm going to choose you, buddy," Ash said turning to Pikachu, "But the last two are going to be difficult."
"Alor," a familiar voice greeted, "So you're still using the same disgusting Pikachu," she said, "Burgundy nice to see you again," Ash said turning around to face the girl. Before a fight could break out a zebra like pokémon appeared between the two, its coat is black with white, jagged stripes all over its body. There is one pointed stripe extending from its nose, two elaborate stripes on its neck and chest, one zigzag stripe each on its jaws, back, and hindquarters, one triangular stripe on each of its thighs, and two stripes banding each of its legs. Its ears are triangular with blue insides, while its eyes are blue with yellow sclera and white eyelashes. Its nose is black, and its hooves are gray. A white, spiked mane runs the length of its body, beginning with two horn-like extensions on its forehead and running down its back to end in a long tail with a starburst-shaped tip. "Hey Stephan, I can tell you've been training hard," Ash noted, "Sure did, after our last meeting my Blitzle evolved into Zebstrika," Stephan said.
Zebstrika, the Thunderbolt Pokémon and the evolved form of Blitzle. Zebstrika can be dangerous when angry, shooting lightning in all directions from its mane. It is lightning fast and when running at full gallop, thunder echoes through the air.
"Thought I smelled a dragon type," another familiar voice said, "Georgia," Iris yelled turning around, "Who were you expecting?" she asked resulting in the both of them to glare that turned into an argument that Zorua decided to get involve, and grinning Iris and the fake Georgia decided to mock the real one. Ash turned to the rest of the crowd to see if he could recognize anyone else he set his eyes on Trip before turning back around, "Of course he would be here," the aura guardian muttered.
Deciding on what pokémon the gang was going to use they all headed to the battlefield, "Wow this looks so cool," Hilda said, "Greetings everyone! You're watching Nimbasa TV!" the man said through the microphone. "I'm your host Freddy 'The Scoop' O'Martin and the man sitting next to me is Don George," everyone cheered for the announcers Don George greeted the masses.
Kanto
"Come on everyone the tournament is starting," Brock shouted in Ash's house. If you're wondering how Brock knew of the tournament Anabel told Delia who in turn told some of Ash's friends, so they all decided to watch in Ash's house. "Man, I'm so pumped, "Tracy said, "Can't wait to see the pokémon in the Unova region," Gary said with his grandfather agreeing, "I hope I can see some water types," Misty said, "I just can't believe that Ash gained a little sister," May said, "Yeah and unlike us she decided to be a trainer," Dawn agreed. "Quiet they're declaring the match ups," Scott said as Anabel stared at the screen.
Back Nimbasa Town
"The first match up is between Georgia and Sylvester," Freddy began, "You better not lose to anyone else Iris," Georgia said, "I want to be the one to beat you," Sylvester sweat dropped, "Remember your battling me first Georgia," he said.
"The next one is Dino vs Omega!" unlike the first match up declaration this one had a pleasant exchange. "The third match is Antonio vs Emmanuel!" these two only had short responses, "Battle number four is Burgundy vs Ash!" said girl cheered making her go on and on about beating Ash with only one move. "The fifth match is between Trip and Steffen!" while former shrugged the latter was depressed that only Ash could get his name correct, "The six match is Hilda vs Bianca!" here both friends promised to give it they're all. "The seventh match is Luke vs Scooter," the exchange in this one was to wish each other luck in their match, "And finally Iris vs Jimmy Ray," looking for her opponent she was creeped out when she saw him dressed in a Watchog onesie.
"Will Georgia and her opponent please step onto the battlefield," the acting referee announced letting the pair walk into the arena, but the match itself was anticlimactic as her opponent's pokémon, which was the size of a tick, was knocked out via air cut off when Beartic fell on the little pokémon. "Man I was hoping for Joltik to win," Stephan said, "I wasn't expecting for that to happen," Hilda agreed, "It was bound to happen," Ash shrugged. The next two matches were in enjoyable to watch as both trainers gave it their all Dino's Deerling and Antonio's Tranquil winning their respective matches.
"And in our fourth match is Ash Ketchum vs Burgundy!" Freddy shouted as the trainers stepped onto the field, "So Don any thoughts on this particular match up?" Freddy asked. "From what my younger cousin in Luxuria Town young Ash has traveled many regions and for 5 years and has some impressive pokémon," the locals suddenly got interested in seeing pokémon from the other regions, "While I cannot predict the choice of pokémon I am certainly sure that Ash is going to win," Don declared. A bit surprised that Don would declare Ash the winner right before the battle began Burgundy got focused when the ref gave the signal to start the match.
"Stoutland, your power is needed," she shouted revealing a quadrupedal mammalian canine Pokémon. It is particularly fluffy and long-haired. Its long, thick fur is mostly blue in color with some brown patches. It has a very long "mustache" and a blue cloak of fur over its body and tail. It has small paws and large ears on the top of its head. It also has forehead hair in the shape of a "W".
Stoutland, the Big-Hearted Pokémon and the evolved form of Herdier. Stoutland is very wise and is skilled in rescuing people stranded in the mountains or at sea.
"Storm through Tauros," Ash said revealing a quadruped, bovine Pokémon. It is covered in light brown fur with a thick, darker brown mane around the neck. It has a rounded muzzle with a dark brown nose, and three gray bumps running vertically down its forehead. A pair of curved, gray horns grows from atop its head. Each of its three black tails has a tuft of fur on the end, and there is a single gray hoof on each foot.
Tauros, a Wild Bull Pokémon. When whipping itself with its three tails, its Tackle is a powerful destructive force.
"Please a weak pokémon just like his its trainer," Trip sneered, "Didn't he win every match you challenged him to," Hilda pointed out.
"I'll admit that's an impressive pokémon, but that doesn't mean I'll be defeated with my Premium Brand Pokémon," Burgundy yelled, "Thunder Fang," she commanded. "Tauros Earthquake then when Stoutland is out of it Horn Charge," Ash calmly said nodding the bull pokémon slammed his front feet on the ground causing the earth to shake and for the opposing pokémon to halt before it got slammed backwards, "Now Firestorm," following up Tauros wiped up a sandstorm before unleashing flamethrower to heat up the sands. "And what a turn out this is, Ash is showing his experience as a trainer by shutting down Burgundy's attack then followed up with two combined attacks," Freddy said making Don nod, "Only an experienced trainer like Ash could combine two attack," he complimented as the crowds cheered.
"Stoutland Rapide! Get out of there with Giga Impact," Burgundy was taking a risk here as she wasn't expecting this to happen right near the beginning of her match. "Let's cool it off with Surf," Ash said soaking the evolved form of Herdier, "Now in the words of Lt. Surge give him a Thunderbolt," the space between the horns glowed then fired a bolt of electricity knocking out Burgundy's pokémon. "And there you have it Ash Ketchum is the winner of the fourth round," Freddy confirmed.
Kanto
"That was a quick match," Misty blinked, "Yeah two combination moves followed by Surf and a Thunderbolt and it was over," Tracy said. "Well in the four months he did train in Rota and he worked on a couple of combo attacks," Anabel pointed out, "He probably got the idea from the contest matches," Brock added. "When do you think he'll use Pikachu?" Gary asked, "Are you kidding Pikachu is his strongest pokémon he'll probably save it for the final match," May said with Dawn agreeing, "I wouldn't be too sure," Professor Oak voiced, "Because yesterday he asked if he could have Charizard for the final match." Everyone was surprised, "Ok now I have to say using Charizard is seriously overkill as that pokémon is as strong as Pikachu," Brock said, "Yeah he was able to fight Articuno the legendary bird of Ice and win," Scott remembered, "Wow I didn't know Ash had a pokémon that strong," Dawn said.
Nimbasa Town
While the three matches after Ash's good everyone had to admit that Ash's match was the best. The next match was Trip vs Steffen," the pupil announced, "Be careful Stephan Trips a good opponent," Ash told his friend/rival, "No need to worry I got this in the bag," he said walking to the battlefield, "Zebstrika stomp the competition," he yelled, "Gurdurr you're up," Trip said releasing a gray bipedal Pokémon with a large, round dark-violet nose. It has bulbous features, resembling curls of "hair", on its head. Violet bulges resembling swelling veins pattern its muscular, large arms, thighs, and chest, and similar thick violet bands adorn its shoulders. It possesses an hourglass shape. It is known to usually carry an I-beam girder in its arms.
Gurdurr, the Muscular Pokémon and the evolved form of Timburr. Gurdurr trains its muscles by carrying a steel beam. With its amazing strength, even professional wrestlers can't move it.
"How will you handle this one Stephan?" Ash asked himself, "You don't think he'll win," Iris said, "While I do I can tell this will be an uphill match for Stephan as Trip is a tough opponent," the trainer from Kanto explained.
Kanto
"Anabel, what's wrong with Ashana and Espeon?" Scott asked as Ashana curled up in Anabel's lap and Espeon growled and barked at the image of Trip. "It was a couple of months when Ashana spent some time with Ash and Pikachu when in the middle of the night there was an energy that appeared to explode from somewhere," she began, "Yes I was wondering that myself when some of Ash's pokémon that remained in the lab woke up and started growling out of nowhere," Professor Oak said wondering why. "Well when they first met Trip said that people were from the Kanto region were redneck and boonies," Anabel said making the Kanto natives mad, "Please tell me Ash beat him good," Misty said, "Yes he did but in their third meeting Trip had his starter suffocate Ashana stating that he would win against Ash anyway he could."
Here everyone was pissed at Trip, "Let me guess Ash did something bad didn't he," Brock said knowing Ash the most, "No Hilda and Iris stopped him but from the look in his eyes I could tell that he wanted to give Trip a good beating," Anabel answered. "Trip reminds me of Paul," Dawn said, "He reminds me of Gary when we were younger," Misty followed, "It's true I was sort of a jerk," Gary admitted, "Ash also said that Trip reminded him of you and Paul but only ten times worst," Anabel included.
Nimbasa Town
"Zebstrika use Flame Charge," Stephan instructed, "Gurdurr use Low Sweep then follow up with Rock Smash after lifting Zebstrika into the air," Trip countered stopping Flame Charge in its tracks then sent flying after it received the second attack. "Zebstrika!? Are you alright?" its trainer asked receiving a nod, "Then use Thunderbolt," snorting Trip said, "Use your beam to deflect it then use Stone Edge," nodding Gurdurr placed the beam in front of him allowing the electricity to travel into the ground then launched multiple stones pelting Zebstrika. "Should have known," Ash said, "He's just like Paul nothing but power," Pikachu nodded agreeing with its trainer, "What are you talking about?" Luke asked but he was ignored, "Big Bro's probably thinking of one of his past opponents so don't take it too seriously," Hilda waived.
"End this with Dynamic Punch," Trip said landing a good right hook ending the match, "Oh that was a brutal finish wouldn't you agree, Don?" Freddie asked, "While that is true this proves that Trip is all about power and nothing else," Don said added some extra info, "But pure Power can only get you so far." Seeing Stephan walk over to the group Ash tossed him a bottle of water, "Man that was a brutal match," he said, "I'm going to the Pokémon Center to heal up Zebstrika," nodding they could only watch on, "Man I hope I don't face Trip," Luke gulped, "Yeah he's one brutal dude," another trainer commented.
"Will Hilda and Bianca please step forward," the ref asked letting the child hood friends know that it was their turn to fight, "So Don is there anything you would like to note in this match?" Freddy asked, "From one of my brothers he said that young Hilda is being trained by Ash Ketchum himself so I'm excited to see what the pupil has learned from the master," Don said.
"Minccino, I choose you," Bianca yelled, "Dewott let's put that training to good use," Hilda declared. "Alright cutie use Swift," Bianca instructed, "Alright let's see that Counter Shield," Hilda countered; as the stars were speeding fast the second stage form of Oshawott started to spin while also firing a Water Gun, "If that didn't work Minccino use Attract," almost panicking Hilda calmed down, "Cut them down with Razor Shell then go in with Aerial Ace," she instructed. "It seems her training under Ash has bared fruit," Don said, "You certainly are correct," Freddy agreed. "Razor Shell then Furry Cutter," too distracted Bianca couldn't order her pokémon to dodge so it took the hit, "Oh no! Minccino try to use a Thunderbolt," caught off guard by the attack, forgetting Minccino could use it, Dewott was critically injured, "Dewott are you alright?" Hilda asked gaining a shaky nod in reply. "Alright go Minccino use Double Slap," Bianca cheered, "Dewott use Detect to dodge then follow up with Razor Shell," with a gleam in his eyes Dewott side stepped then use its shell to slash Minccino knocking it out. "The winner of this round is Hilda," the ref confirmed.
The last two matches were good as Luke used his Golett and Iris won with her Excadrill. "Alright with the first round over here are your following match ups," Freddy said as everyone turned to the big screen to see that it Ash vs Georgia, Dino vs Luke, Antonio vs Trip, and finally Hilda vs Iris. "It was bound to happen," Hilda said, "Well don't expect for me to hold back," Iris said, "Like I would even think that," Hilda smirked.
Going to stop here as I wanted to do the first round in one chapter so the next round will be friend vs friend, so who will win the dragon master in training or the student of an elite.
