Chapter 12 Our Backs to the Wall

Black and Lucario had a in-head exchange and made a strategy to take down Wartortle, the plan was to break a many holes in the floor and then, once Wartortle was taken by temptation of swimming, send several Aura Spheres down to track him. The plan worked, but Wartortle wasn't knocked out.

"How did he survive that?" Black thought to Lucario.

"I don't know, but how about I Ice Punch the area were he is and then he wont have a footing" replied Lucario, but the plan back fired and Wartortle used the ice to speed up a Skull Bash and almost KO Lucario.

"Our backs might be to the wall but we will win." said Black to Ryan.

"We will see." replied Ryan, Black and Lucario had the same thought at once "Lets use Earthquake." and they did so making cracks in the steel that covered the pool but not hitting Wartortle. But this turned out in their favor. Wartortle tried to jump in the water but it was still covered in ice and the blow confused him, Lucario didn't have to ask for permission he just ran up to Wartortle and Ice Punched him knocking him out and winning Black his second badge. He thanked Ryan for the battle and left the Gym and went back to the Pokemon Center.

When he got back he showed his new badge off and got praise from his friends, so to celebrate they went to Bill's Taco stand and spent 400 Pokedollars on tacos. They went back to the Pokemon Center and played in the pool and went to bed. They woke up in the morning and packed up and headed out to route 3. about three hours into route 3 they found Henry.

"hey, Henry wanna Battle?" asked Black.

"Yeah! Lets do it!" replied Henry jumping up.

"This is going to be awesome!" said Black. Suddenly, the ground blew apart and the four trainers blacked out.
