"You two were great in the last battle." Leaf said.
"Nido." Nidoran said happily.
"Bulba." Bulbasaur said equally as happy.
"And Nidoran you learning venoshock is perfect for you because of your poison point ability." Dawn said.
"Nidoran." he said blushing at the praise.
Red was walking up to them with his Pikachu on his shoulder who then jumped off to go play with Pichu.
"So Red we both made it to the next round, hope we're paired up so I can beat you this time." Leaf said.
Red smirked and said "don't get cocky."
"Red? I have a question for you. How come your so quiet all the time?" Dawn asked.
"Dawn that's rude." Leaf said with a frown.
"Its fine Leaf. I don't know why I just, don't like to talk around people." Red said.
The three sat in silence until something saved them from their awkward silence, that being the next round with Leaf going first.
"Ok I've got to go. Wish me luck." Leaf said before she returned all of her pokemon and ran to the battle field.
"Entry number "36" Leaf Green!"
Leaf walked out onto the field and was greeted by cheering as she took her place.
"And entry number "7" John Sheppard!"
Leafs opponent was a man in his early thirty. He wore a black jacket with dark pants. He had brown hair, stubble on his face and green eyes and was super super cute.
"And now to determine how many pokemon will be used." the announcer said.
The screen went blank for a moment before the number "2" appeared.
"And there you have it ladies and gentleman! Each trainer will use two pokemon."
The referee gave them the rules and Leaf and Shepard both released their first pokemon.
"Krabby let's suit up!" he said.
Out of the pokeball came a big red crab with a yellow stomach and claws with one bigger then the other.
"Krabby." it said as it snapped it's claws at Leaf.
"Must be a water type so in that case" she muttered before grabbing her first pokeball and shouted "Bulbasaur let's go!"
"Bulbasaur!" she said.
"Krabby." it said snapping it's claws at her but Bulbasaur was unfazed.
"Begin!"
"Alright Krabby use bubble beam!" Sheppard said.
"Counter with razor leaf!" Leaf said.
Bulbasaur shot her razor leaf attack to counter the barrage of bubbles flying at her. Both met but bubble beam prevailed and hit Bulbasaur making her grunt but did little damage.
"Now vine whip!" Leaf said.
"Harden!" Shepard said.
Krabby's entire body started to glow a pale blue before the vines could hit and even though Bulbasaur was whipping Krabby, it seemed not to feel it.
"Now catch the vines with your claw!" Sheppard said.
Krabby moved it's smaller claw quickly and caught both vines in its claw.
"Now pull it to you and use crabhammer!"
With a huge tug Bulbasaur was sent flying towards Krabby, who then slammed its bigger claw into Bulbasaur making him hit the ground and cry out.
"Razor leaf while your close!" Leaf said.
Bulbasaur fired a close range razor leaf that make Krabby stumble back on its four legs and place it's claws in front of itself.
"Keep using razor leaf and start running around it!" Leaf said.
Bulbasaur took off quickly while firing a continuous barrage of leafs at Krabby who tried to turn so Bulbasaur would only hit it's claws but she was just too fast for the larger pokemon and soon was grunting in pain.
"Stop spinning and fire an ice beam at the ground exactly when I tell you to." Sheppard said.
Krabby obeyed and stopping spinning.
Bulbasaur however kept running and firing.
However a couple of seconds before Bulbasaur would be in front of Krabby Sheppard shouted "NOW!"
Krabby extended one of its claws and fired a blue beam that hit the ground and froze it making Bulbasaur slip and hit the ground.
"Crabhammer!" Sheppard said.
Krabby swung it's giant claw and sent Bulbasaur flying.
"Bulbasaur!" Leaf said with worry as she landed.
But Bulbasaur wasn't through yet. She got back up on her feet and said "saur!"
"Krab!" was Krabby's reply.
Bulbasaur's vines shot out and shot forward and with a powerful strike knocked Krabby off its feet and caused it to land on its back.
"Good one Bulbasaur!" Leaf said happily.
"Saur." Bulbasaur said back with a smile.
"Alright Bulbasaur razor leaf."!" Leaf said.
Bulbasaur shot several dozen leafs from her bulb that started to barrage Krabby who had just managed to get back on its feet and was sent flying again and landed on its back and lay motionless.
"Krabby is unable to battle! This round goes to Bulbasaur!"
"Yay! That's great Bulbasaur!" Leaf said happily.
"Bulba!" Bulbasaur said as she smiled at her trainer.
"Not bad kid. Not bad at all." Sheppard said as he returned his Krabby and gave her a small smile.
Leaf couldn't help but blush and giggle.
"But let's see you deal with this." he said as the threw his pokeball.
Out of the pokeball came a light blue pokemon about the size of a child but it's body was bulging with muscles.
"Machop!" it said.
"Alright Bulbasaur use razor leaf!" Leaf said.
"Block them with close combat!" Sheppard said.
Bulbasaur fired several leafs from its back but Machop turned into a whirlwind of punches and kicks as it blocked all of the leafs.
"Tackle!" Leaf said.
"Fire punch!" Sheppard said.
Bulbasaur quickly shot towards Machop, who's fist caught fire before punching Bulbasaur's forehead and sent her flying.
"Vine whip!" Leaf said.
Bulbasaur shot two vines from her back and whipped them at Machop.
"Dodge it and use rolling kick!" Sheppard said.
Machop quickly dodged both of the strikes and jumped up into the air and spun around delivering a kick to Bulbasaur's face and made her cry out but not before knocking Machop out of the air.
"Now fire punch once more!" Sheppard said.
Machop shot back to its feet and ran forward and delivered a final fire enhanced punch that sent Bulbasaur slide to Leaf's feet.
"Bulba." Bulbasaur said weakly.
Leaf picked up her grass type and said "you were great Bulbasaur." She then stood back up and grabbed her second pokeball and said "now come on out Pidgey!"
"Pidgey!" he cawed.
Machop took a fighting pose and got ready.
"Begin!"
"Pidgey use quick attack!"
Pidgey shot forward and slammed into Machop's chest but was met with a karate chop from the fighting type before backing away.
"Sand attack!" Leaf said.
Pidgey started to flap his wings and kicked up a small amount of sand that flew into Machops eyes.
"Now wing attack!" Leaf said.
Pidgey's wings started to glow white before he shot forward and slammed into the blinded fighting type and made it cry out as it clutched the area of its chest that had been struck.
"Bulk up!" Sheppard said.
Machop started to flex it's arms before glowing red.
"Now rolling kick!" Sheppard said.
"Double team!" Leaf said.
Machop quickly jumped into the air and quickly spun and kicked Pidgey who had multiplied and hit one of the copies but it's attack looked more powerful.
"Be careful Pidgey it looks like it's attacks are more powerful now!" Dawn warned.
"Gey." he nodded.
"Bulk up again!" Sheppard said.
"Wing attack!" Leaf said.
Pidgey shot forward at the now glowing red Machop and slammed his wing into it.
However unlike before, Machop didn't cry out or clutch the area that was hit.
"Rolling kick!" Sheppard said.
Machop quickly leapt into the air kicked Pidgey and sent him to the ground hard.
"Pidgey!" Leaf cried in worry.
Pidgey however shot back into the air but didn't escape uninjured he was favoring his left wing and had some scratches.
"Get in close with a quick attack and then use wing attack!" Leaf said.
Pidgey shot forward quickly and managed to strike Machop with a super effective flying type move before quickly getting out of range.
"Focus blast!" Sheppard said.
Machop placed it's hands together and formed a blue sphere and hurled it at Pidgey.
Both Leaf and Pidgey were surprised by this, neither had expected Machop to have a ranged attack and because of that surprise Pidgey was hit and fell to the ground.
"Level out Pidgey!" Leaf cried out.
Pidgey extended his wings and managed to pull up before hitting the ground.
"Great job Pidgey now sand attack!" Leaf said.
"Rolling kick!" Sheppard said.
Machop leapt up but got a face full of sand and missed Pidgey completely.
"While it's blind use wing attack!" Leaf said.
"Fire punch!" Sheppard said.
Pidgey shot forward and hit Machop with his wings while the now blind fighting type kept swinging wildly with its flaming punches.
Machop was panting when if finally managed to clear it's vision and shouted it's name "Chop!"
"Pidgey!" Pidgey cawed back.
"Focus blast!" Sheppard said.
Machop placed it's hands together and formed a blue sphere and hurled it at Pidgey. But the flying type wasn't caught by surprise this time and managed to dodge it, however just he only just barely managed to dodge it before shooting forward and slamming into Machop.
"Chop." it cried out.
Both pokemon looked to be at the end of their rope, they were covered in injuries. Pidgey was favoring his left wing more so then his right.
"Wing attack!" Leaf cried out.
"Fire punch on my mark!" Sheppard said.
Pidgey shot forward with his wings glowing while Machop's fist caught fire.
"Now!" Sheppard said.
Machop delivered a powerful punch that knocked Pidgey off course and made him slam into the ground.
"Pidgey!" Leaf said with worry.
But Pidgey wasn't done yet as he slowly pushed himself up.
"How much damage can that thing take?" Sheppard said amazed that this little flying type was still going.
"Alright Pidgey let's try and finish this! Sand attack followed by as many wing attacks as you can!" Leaf said.
Pidgey got back in the air and blew sand in Machop's face again before speeding forward and slamming his wing into Machop making it cry out before quickly looping in the air and hitting it in the back.
Pidgey kept making very sharp turns and slamming Machop with his wing all the while picking up speed until he looked like a little blur.
"Pidgey!" he said as he delivered the final blow to Machop's face and sent the small fighting type to the ground.
Pidgey landed and nearly collapsed from exhaustion but managed to stay on his feet.
"Machop is unable to battle! John Sheppard is out of pokemon. The winner of this round is Pidgey and Leaf Green!"
"Yes! Great job, Pidgey?" Leaf asked looking at her now glowing Pidgey.
"Gey?" Pidgey asked not sure why his trainer looked so surprised.
Pidgey grew bigger, his colors stayed the same but his eyes changed the most. They became piercing yellow that make Leaf cringe slightly.
Pidgey was gone and in his place was "Pidgeotto!" he said as he extended his wings and let out a loud caw.
"You evolved!" Leaf said happily.
"Otto?" he said as he looked down at himself and a looked back at Leaf with a bird like smile and said "Otto!" happily.
Leaf ran to him and hugged his neck tightly.
She saw Sheppard walk over to her with a cute smile on his face and said "your a talented trainer kid."
Leaf let go of Pidgeotto and stood up and prayed she wasn't blushing and said "so are you." and extended her hand.
He took it, gave it a small squeeze and shook it.
He let go and gave her another smile that made her blush before he walked away.
Leaf returned her newly evolved Pidgeotto and ran to go meet up with Dawn and Red.
She didn't have to look for long as a small blue streak ran up to her and hugged her.
"Your sencond win and your Pidgey evolved!" she said with a happy squeal.
Leaf giggled and hugged her back before she let go and hugged Red who showed up soon after Dawn.
But when Leaf realized what she was doing she quickly let go and looked away from Red so he couldn't see her blush.
Something he was grateful for because she couldn't see his blush either but he said "that was a close one."
"Did you ever doubt me?" she asked as she looked back at him when she was sure she wasn't blushing anymore.
He looked at her and gave her a super cute smile and said softly "never."
"Man! Now I'm blushing again!" she thought as she felt her cheeks heat up.
A/N first one to tell me what John Sheppard is from gets to pick a pokemon that Dawn will get.
Also the only reason it seems like this story is battle after battle is because I wanted to give Red and Leaf fossils.
Also no one is getting the goddamn Hellix fossil because I'm sick of hearing about the f*cking "Holy Hellix"
Now that I've said all of that the only thing left is this.
Until we meet again.
Jaffa3 out.
