The second part of the Elite Four battles are here. This might be short so I apologize but I hope you enjoy the chapter either way!

Chapter 29-Elite Four (Part 2)

With a fully healed team, Collin set off to face the next member of the Elite Four. He entered the room with the spirit symbol above it, having the idea that it was Ghost Type. Walking into the purple room, there was a thick layer of smog that covered it. He walked up the stairs and onto the arena, when the smog died down. Purple barriers surrounded the arena with smoke coming from the end of it. Standing in front of Collin was none other than Acerola.

"Acerola is here to bring some royal class to the Pokemon League!" she shouted and posed at the same time.

"Hey Acerola! I was expecting Nanu to be here, considering Hala and Olivia are members." said Collin, walking up to her.

"Nanu said, in his words, "I may not be able to refuse the Tapu for being choosing to serve as Kahuna, but I'd be damned if I had to serve as an Elite Four member just because some guy asked me.". His words not mine!" she said, laughing at the idea.

"Yeah that sounds like him. So you decided to fill in the role huh?"

"Yep." she said and her smile faded. "Listen, sorry for pushing everything on you a few days ago. Things were getting so hard to managed. Between the Trial and Yungoos and Lillie, things haven't been exactly smooth."

"Ah now stop." said Collin, holding his hand up. "It's not your fault, you didn't know how bad the Trial would affect me, or Team Skull taking the Yungoos, or Lillie being kidnapped. So don't go blaming everything on yourself." This seemed to perk Acerola back up, as her smile returned to normal.

"Yeah! Thanks Collin." she said before taking a deep breath. "But now isn't the time to talk. Time for me to show you what I'm made of!"

"Bring it!"


The battle started with Acerola's Sableye against Collin's Mimikyu. Due to it's Fairy Typing and the Disguise ability, Mimikyu took the Sableye down with no problem. Not wanting to make the same mistake as last time, he called back Mimikyu while Acerola sent out Drifblim. In response, Collin sent out Empoleon to counter it. It was a troublesome fight, as Collin didn't expect Drifblim to have Thunderbolt on it's side. But Empoleon managed to pull through and won the fight, but was heavily damaged during it. She sent out her next Pokemon, known as Dhelmise. At first, Collin was going to send out Decidueye since it looked like a Water Type, however he noticed the seaweed surrounding the Pokemon. He took a gamble and sent out Salazzle. This gamble paid off, as Salazzle managed to take down the Dhelmise no problem. When Acerola sent out Froslass, prior experince told him to keep the fire type Pokemon on the field. Sure enough, Frosslass went down without any trouble. Acerola was down to only one more Pokemon, but she was still determined.

"GO PALOSSAND!" she shouted. Out came what looked like a sand castle Pokemon, but the opening began to move, showing it had a mouth. "We are going to go all out this time!" she shouted.

"Think you can take it Salazzle?" he asked.

"Hiss!" she cried, with a nod showing she was willing to try.

"Fair enough, I'm not one to argue. Venoshock!" Poison shot from Salazzle and hit Palossand, however it seemed to do very little in damage.

"Earth Power!" shouted Aceorla. The ground began to shake violently and it managed to knock Salazzle onto the ground, knocking her out in the process. "Yes! Score one for me!" she cheered

"Return Salazzle." said Collin and the fainted Salazzle returned to the ball. He counted his lucky stars and picked his next Pokemon. "Go Mimikyu!" Mimikyu came out of it's ball, with the Disguise already broken. "Okay buddy, you're gonna have to pay attention. I know you can do it."

"Kyu!" cried Mimikyu.

"Aw it's cute that he responds to you." said Acerola, going goo-goo eyed over the sight of the Mimikyu. "Whoops! Almost lost my train of thought! Use Shadow Ball Palossand!" Palossand opened it's mouth and a black ball of energy shot out from it's mouth and headed towards Mimikyu.

"Dodge!" shouted Collin. Mimikyu just managed to dodge out of the way from the Shadow Ball. "Nice! Now go for a Shadow Claw!" Mimikyu jumped into the air and using it's hand underneath the cloth, it slashed at Palossand, causing major damage.

"No Palossand!" cried Acerola, seeing her star Pokemon being damaged.

"Now's the time! UNLEASH Z-MOVE!" shouted Collin, twisting the Ghostium Z-Crystal and preforming the dance, powering up Mimikyu. "NOW USE NEVER-ENDING NIGHTMARE!" The arena was shrouded in darkness and a massive shadow came from under Mimikyu and went towards Palossand. Multiple arms came from under the ground and trapped the Pokemon, causing a massive explosion. When the darkness cleared, Palossand was defeated, making Collin the victor. "Well done Mimikyu! Return." Mimikyu returned to it's ball, along with Palossand returning to it's own ball.

"I'm...I'm speechless! You done me in!" she said, but still smiling. "I heard you were a powerful trainer but that...that's just amazing!"

"Pfft, I'm not that powerful." he said trying to be modest. "I just do what other Trainers do. Train, train, train. That's what everyone does. But not only do I train, I bond and love everyone of my Pokemon. Not one of them will be useless on my team." Acerola looked at Collin and gave him a warm smile.

"If only everyone was like that. The world is full of horrible people, but it's full of wonderful people like you." she said before laughing. "You know, I was hoping I could beat you, so I can become Champion myself one day. I guess that dream will have to wait."

"You never know. Hell I don't even think I'll become Champion."

"Nonsense, you totally can be Champion. Not only that, you have one more challenger to face before you become Champion! Just head back to the main room and face the next Elite Four member." Collin walked passed Acerola and was about to get on the teleport panel, before Acerola stopped him. "Good luck Champ." she said, winking at him.

"Thanks Acerola." And with that, Collin left the room and was back in the main room. Like before, the floor lit up and traveled to the middle of the room. With one more member left to take on, Collin healed his team up and was ready to face what was in store for him. He walked up to the room with the wing symbol above it, clearly meaning the last member used Flying Type Pokemon. Collin really didn't prepare his team for this, with only Crabominable having Ice moves, but with a weakness to Flying Types, it was going to be tricky. He went in and followed the path leading to a green room surrounded by green barriers, ending with wings. Standing in front of him was someone he never saw before, a fresh face carrying a golf stick.

"So, here you are...why don't we see who the winds favor today, shall we?" said the woman in front of him. Her face had no expression on it, so Collin was unsure how she was feeling. That all changed suddenly when her face turn from blankness, to pure shock. "No way...you can't be...COLLIN CLARKSON?!" she shouted. This caught him completely off guard.

"W-W-Wha? How do you know my name?!" he questioned.

"I was in Kalos during the parade after you defeated Team Flare! I saw your face. I know we weren't allow to tell people, and I didn't, but how could I forget a face of the person who saved an entire region?" she said, looking all giddy now.

"...right...just don't go spreading it around here okay? I don't want people to hound my ass." he said.

"Of course! You have my word." she said, almost saluting him. "Oh wait, I suppose I better tell you who I am. I'm Kahili. A few years ago, I was an Island Champion just like you. I've been traveling the world to hone and improve my skills as a Pokemon Trainer and a golfer, which is how I ended up in Kalos. When Kukui told me about the Pokemon League and asked me to be a member, I just had to come back and serve for Alola!"

"Well I'm glad you done that, because this is going to be one interesting battle." said Collin, getting his Poke Balls ready.

"Indeed." she said. "I can't believe my first ever battle as an Elite Four member is with the Hero of Kalos. I'm gonna give everything I got!"


The match started off badly for Collin. He sent out Mimikyu against Skarmory, thinking it's Disguise Ability would protect it. Sure enough it didn't and Mimikyu was knocked out within two hits. Not wanting to risk another blow like that, he send out Salazzle to deal with the Skarmory. A few Flamethrowers and the steel bird was down. She then sent out Crobat. Collin withdrew Salazzle for the time being and sent out Crabominable to face it. Thankfully Collin had an easier time with this as Crabominable used Ice Hammer and Ice Punch against the bat Pokemon, taking out with no problem. Kahili then sent out a Pokemon called Oricorio. Collin decided to keep Crabominable out on the field, which was a mistake when the Pokemon used Revelation Dance that did fire damage to the massive crab Pokemon. While she wasn't defeated, Collin decided to withdraw Crabominable from the match and sent out Empoleon, who had a much easier time with the bird Pokemon, using it's Hydro Pump to take it out. Collin left Empoleon out when Kahili threw her next Pokemon, Mandibuzz. Mandibuzz proved to be tricky for Empoleon, as it used Bone Rush on it many times. Despite this, Empoleon managed to beat the bird Pokemon with a well timed Metal Claw. With a weakened Empoleon, Collin withdrew him, waiting for Kahili to send out her final Pokemon.

"GO TOUCANNON!" she shouted and threw her Poke Ball. Out came a bird Pokemon with a massive beak. Collin wasn't fully sure if he should send out Crabominable just yet, in fear of a Fire Type move.

"Go Salazzle!" he shouted. Salazzle was sent out more as a test so see what moves Toucannon had, but still was ready to attack. "Flamethrower!" shouted Collin.

"Dodge and use Beak Blast!" shouted Kahili, Toucannon began to fly into the air, dodging the Flamethrower, all the while it's beak was beginning to glow red. With a sharp decent, Toucannon hit Salazzle with it's beak, creating a blast of fire from it. This send Salazzle back, and she struggled to get up. "NOW UNLEASH Z-MOVE!" Kahili turned a Z-Crystal Collin never seen before and preformed a dance, powering up Toucannon. "NOW USE SUPERSONIC SKYSTRIKE!" Toucannon flew high into the air and came back down fast at almost supersonic speed, crashing into Salazzle hard and knocking her out.

"Return!" shouted Collin. Despite this, Collin felt confident about his next choice and how he was going to pull it off. "Go Crabominable!" he shouted and out came the massive Pokemon once again. Kahili didn't look surprised.

"Ha, shame that it's part Fighting Type, because this will take you your ace no problem, hero!" she said with a smirk on her face. "Beak Blast!" she shouted. Toucannon charged up it's beak and began to fly towards Crabominable. Collin didn't say anything and just watched the Pokemon come closer. He was waiting for the right moment, and he took it.

"ICE HAMMER NOW!" he shouted. Crabominable raised it's fist into the air and covered it in ice. Just as Toucannon was about to hit the Pokemon with it's beak, the fist slammed down right onto the Pokemon, knocking it out in one hit and making Collin the winner. "AWESOME JOB CRABOMINABLE! You deserved that win!" he said, returning the Pokemon to her ball.

"Return Toucannon, you did your best." said Kahili as her Pokemon returned to it's ball. "It's frustrating as a member of the Elite Four to lose, but man your strength shows. No wonder you are the Hero of Kalos."

"I guess. Still, great match." he said, shaking her hand.

"Yeah, it was amazing to battle someone like you. A fresh face to Alola is someone we need as a Champion. To keep a secret between you and me, I actually was annoyed that Kukui called me back." she said, laughing. "But I did anyway, just to see if it's worthwhile. After this match, I can gladly say it was."

"Well I'm glad you changed your mind." Kahili then turned serous for a moment.

"You know what this means now? You are now the Champion of Alola. Head to the main room and you'll be seated at your throne." she said, pointing to the Teleport Panel.

"...okay...Thanks Kahili, hope to talk to you again soon." said Collin and he exited the room. What he didn't see was the smirk across her face has he left the room.

"If only he knew it's not that easy. Good luck Hero."
