OH MY ODA-SENSEI! WHY HAVEN'T I UPDATED THIS FIC IN A LONG TIME?
Seriously! Before, I would update PokéTail once a week! What happened?
Well…I am pretty nervous for the next few chapters since I have never written a fighting scene other than the 'little' scuffles the guild has every day. ESPECIALLY NOT WITH MAGIC AND POKEMON COMBINED!
What? That makes you nervous about reading the future chapters?
Great! We can be nervous together!
On the manga side (Fairy Tail), the Games have given me so much inspiration! If any of you have been following me (stalkers!), you would know that I've already written three chapters of my new story Between The Games. Amazing, isn't it?
Let's get on with the show!
Gray: How is it that after over twenty chapters, there STILL has to be a disclaimer?
Previously on PokéTail!:
"If you want to fight for real, right now, follow me!" Fukushu-Gold taunted.
"YOU'RE ON!" Natsu and Gold yelled at the same time.
"Togetaro, chase after him!" Gold called out his trusty Togekiss. He quickly jumped on and took off.
"Happy!" Natsu yelled to his partner, "Full-speed ahead!"
"W-wait for us!" Wendy cried.
"Dammit!" Gajeel and Pantherlily flew up as well.
"Hey, you guys!" Sapphire whined, calling out her Tropius.
Soon, all five Dragon Slayers were chasing the Fukushu Squad's leader.

PokéTail
Chapter 24:
The Battle Has Started
December 17th
Earthland
Rosorro Wasteland
Approximately 10:00 AM
The Dragon Slayers continued speeding through the clouds, keeping a close eye on their enemy.
"Apologies, am I too fast?" Fukushu-Gold yelled from meters ahead of the group.
"Wendy!" Gold called out, ignoring his other-self for the moment, "Here! Tell the others that we're headin' into battle!"
With a cry of surprise, Wendy caught the Pokédex in her hands and quickly began typing.
The battle has started
Immediately, both Exceeds and Pokémon sped up to match the Metagross' speed. Wendy clutched Gold's precious Pokédex and slightly opened her mouth to let some air in. She would need it for the fight.
"LET'S GO!" Natsu roared in determination.
Earthland
Fairy Tail Guild
Approximately 10:05 AM
The message flashed on both Lacrimas and Pokédexes.
The battle has started
Makarov nodded. Erza passed her Lacrima to him-a silent question for any last messages.
The Master took the Pokédex and typed slowly before handing it back to Erza.
Unfortunately, neither Gold nor Sapphire could check to see what he had said in his note. As the previous message had stated, the battle had already begun.
As soon as the steel Pokémon landed, Natsu attacked with full force.
"Fire Dragon's Sword Horn!" he cried, ramming into the Metagross. The said creature took serious damage due to type disadvantage, but still stood mightily on its legs.
"Meteor Mash!" Fukushu-Gold retaliated. Metagross flew to the fire-breather and knocked him down with four glowing punches.
Sapphire barked out orders, "Dono! Pilo! Rollout! Solarbeam!"
Donphan and Tropius behaved, launching both attacks at the same time. Metagross dodged the two attacks and countered with Metal Claw.
Gold, Wendy and Gajeel watched on standby as Natsu and Sapphire openly attacked the metal monster. All three spun around, smelling three figures behind them. They were met with three attacks at once, and dodged.
As the smoke cleared, a somewhat metallic voice spoke, "You three don't seem to be having much fun."
Wendy was taken aback when she heard the familiar voice.
"What the hell do you know!" Gajeel jumped and turned his fist into an iron beam.
His arm collided with a green sword-like arm.
"Gallade, Slash." Fukushu-Wendy spoke calmly. The Blade Pokémon swung its arm around to hit Gajeel. The Iron Dragon Slayer protected himself with his Iron Dragon's Sword.
Meanwhile, Fukushu-Natsu was swinging around a metal pole in an attempt to hit one of the opponents. Just as he was about to sneak up on Sapphire, Gold blocked the swing with his own billiard cue.
"Sneak attacks? Well, deceiving others is a part of every battle, huh?" he blocked another blow, "I guess this is where living in the Pokémon World becomes useful."
"What are you yappin' on about to yourself?" Fukushu-Natsu spat at him as the two metal objects collided once more.
"I'm just gonna combine something from the Pokémon World and Earthland, okay?" And with that, he sent a large electric current through his cue. The electricity travelled through the metal pipe the pink-haired was holding, thus electrifying him. Fukushu-Natsu fell to the ground with wide eyes.
"Wow…I expected a lot more from you, Flame-head impostor (Natsu: I heard that!)," Gold watched the Fukushu member twitch, as sparks flew out of his body.
"That's weird…" The Breeder muttered. Sparks weren't supposed to come out of people's bodies like that. Or were they? Usually, the enemy would be fried to a crisp, not sparking.
'Eh, maybe it's just in my imagination.' Gold thought while running towards Wendy and Fukushu-Gajeel.
"Sky Dragon's Roar!" The blast of air hit Fukushu-Gajeel in the chest and sent him flying a few yards.
"Nice, Wendy!" Gold made a thumbs-up. He looked over to Gajeel, who was just about finished with Gallade.
But suddenly, the air grew thick, as if gravity had lost all meaning.
"H-huh?" Wendy yelped, "It's a change in the atmosphere!"
"What the hell? !" Natsu and Gajeel screamed in shock.
"It's my secret weapon." Fukushu-Gold stated with a smirk as he held an empty Master Ball. It could be noted that his clothes were somewhat charred. His body was also soaking wet, and he had a bruise forming on his left leg.
Sapphire stared at the purple matter forming in front of the other Gold, "Oh, you have GOT to be kidding me…"
"What is it?" Wendy cried.
The purple matter transformed into a large beast with spike-like protrusions in its tail.
~I didn't think it would turn out that way
"It's-"
Her reply was cut off by an extremely loud roar.
A dragon's roar.
It might have been the last thing we expected from them.
I didn't even know what it was at the time.
But we were determined to win anyhow. That's just how Fairy Tail is.
"GRRAAAAOOAAR!"
TBC…
A/N: WAH! Was it okay? Was it awesome? Did you absolutely hate it? I need to know!
Here we go! This is the start of all the foreshadowing! I'm dropping many hints in this chapter for the next few key parts of the storyline! Yes, my dear friends, PokéTail has a plot!
Anyone got any guesses for what the beast is? And for who's speaking in the last few lines? Say so in your review!
On a quick final note, the 'rumor' of the Dragon Slayers having enhanced hearing has been CONFIRMED! I will try my best to add that aspect into the future battles!
Watch out for some Dragon Slayer teamwork in the next chapter!
Arigatou!
