Chapter 36

It took me about a couple of days to reach Fuchsia city, after getting my pokemon checked in the local pokemon centre I was about to left for the Battle Pike but then I heard a few trainers talking about Safari Zone. "Is there something going on Safari Zone, nurse Joy?" I asked the local nurse Joy.

"Not really, its just the recent additions there that is the talk of interest between trainers. Pokemon League has added some pokemon from other regions in the Safari zone and also raised the entrance fees by 4 times." Nurse Joy answered.

I nodded, "Then I should surely visit the Safari Zone again."

Nurse Joy nodded, "It's a good idea as you are veteran trainer, by the way are you taking part in Indigo league again?"

I laughed, "No, I am actually challenging the Battle Frontier."

Nurse Joy smiled, "Well you are a strong trainer, I am sure you can give Lucy a good fight. You show know that Lucy has an obsession with Serpentine pokemon, you can expect all her pokemon to be serpentine in shape or nature."

I nodded, "Thanks for the information nurse Joy, I should leave for the Safari Zone now." Nurse Joy nodded and I left.

I reached Safari zone and met the old caretaker again, surprisingly he remembered me. "Hello again Harry, looks like you heard the news as well."

I nodded, "Hello to you too Kraiga, you remember me?" I asked.

Kraiga laughed, "I think many people in Kanto remember you, after all you don't see a rookie trainer reach a league finale and then nearly win it as well."

I smiled, "Thanks Kraiga, I heard that the entry fee increased."

Kraiga nodded, "Yes, after inclusion of different pokemon from other region it was decided to increase the fee. Now mostly experienced trainers come here, a few rich kids do come but most of them can't convince the pokemon to be in their team. Also, you are allowed to take your pokemon inside but battling is still not allowed."

I nodded and paid the 2000 poke credits to Kraiga and took the 30 Safari Balls from Kraiga and entered the Safari Zone. I found many pokemon roaming around from all over the regions but the first pokemon that caught my eye was a shiny Ponyta with a combination of blue and violet fire on its body instead of the usual orange, it was drinking water from a nearby pond. I released Blaziken from my pokeball to talk with Ponyta and moved towards it, Ponyta stared at us as we approached. "Hey Ponyta, I am Harry and I want to have you in my team. Will you come with me?" Ponyta stared at us but then Blaziken started talking with Ponyta in pokemon language, afterwards Ponyta nodded and I caught it with a Safari Ball.

I recalled Blaziken and released my Umbreon to walk with me, I was moving around when a Eevee came out of bush toward Umbreon. Umbreon and Eevee talked with each other and afterwards Umbreon turned towards me, "It wants to come with us?" I asked Umbreon and Umbreon nodded, so I caught the Eevee with a Safari Ball.

I reached a place filled with bug type pokemons, I found many different bug type pokemon even a few Scyther which were scarce last time I was here. After searching around, I found a pokemon I was interested in a Skorupi. I approached the poison and bug type pokemon from Sinnoh region, "Hey Skorupi, why don't you come with me and be a part of my team? I can help you become very strong, what do you say?" Skorupi started at me for a long time and I stared back, it finally agreed and I caught the Skorupi in a Safari Ball.

The next pokemon I caught was a pokemon that I didn't expect to see, a Poipole. Poipole was classified as an Ultra Beast as they came from another dimension in the Alola region, they were very rarely found and seeing one in the Safari Zone was like getting a gold mine. I approached Poipole and gave it some pokemon food, Poipole sniffed the food and then stared at me for few seconds after which it started eating the food I gave happily. "Hey Poiploe will you come with me?" I asked but Poipole was busy eating, Poipole finished the pokemon food and stared at the food packet, "You want more?" Poipole nodded so I gave it some more of the packed pokemon food. I asked again, "So, will you come with me?" Poipole finished its food and nodded, I smiled and caught it in a Safari Ball.

I released Hedwig, "Hey girl, why don't you look around to find our new team mate." Hedwig nodded and flew up. Hedwig led me to a small flying type pokemon, it was a Rufflet. I didn't have to do anything as Hedwig talk to the small bird type and then indicated toward the Safari Ball, "Will Rufflet come with us?" I asked Hedwig, she nodded and Rufflet also nodded with her. I smiled and caught Rufflet with a Safari Ball.

It was nearly dark as I was heading for the Safari Zone exit, Umbreon was walking beside me when I felt someone watching me. I gave an eye signal to Umbreon who quickly brightened up the blue rings on her body as a result throwing light at the pokemon following us, it was a shiny Honedge. I stared at the shiny Honedge who then came forward and rapped its red cloth around my hand, "You want to come with me?" I asked and the shiny Honedge nodded, without wasting time I caught the shiny Honedge in a Safari Ball and headed out.

When I reached outside I gave Kraiga the Safari Balls containing the pokemon I caught. "You took your time." Kraiga said.

I nodded, "Yeah, there were quite a variety of pokemons in there. I found a few rare pokemon in there as wee, even an Ultra Beast."

Kraiga nodded, "Ah, so you caught the Poipole. It was the only Ultra Beast in the Safari Zone, you got quite lucky."

I smiled and replied, "I am a lucky person." Kraiga laughed and transferred all the six pokemons I caught to my pokeballs who were then automatically transferred to New Island as I had the maximum number of pokemon with me. I wished Kraiga goodbye and left for the pokemon centre.

Once I was back in the pokemon centre I transferred all of my newly caught pokemon in Safari Zone to me from New Island with the help of the elf Mipsy who was one of the elves managing the coral in New Island. I scanned all of my new pokemons one by one.

"Ponyta, a Fire Horse Pokémon. Its mane is made of intense flames. Its hooves are 10 times harder than diamonds. It can trample anything completely flat in little time. Capable of jumping incredibly high. Its hooves and sturdy legs absorb the impact of a hard landing. Its hind legs, which have harder-than-diamond hooves, kick back at any presence it senses behind it. As a new born, it can barely stand. However, through galloping, its legs are made tougher and faster. This Ponyta is a female, due to its odd colouring it's also a shiny pokemon.

Known moves- Tackle, Tail Whip, Flamethrower, Flame Charge, Fire Spin, Take Down, Inferno, Agility, Fire Blast, Bounce, Flare Blitz, Charm, Double Kick, High Horsepower, Horn Drill, Hypnosis, Low Kick, Wild Charge, Attract."

"This Ponyta is strong, I think it will evolve into Rapidash soon." I commented and scanned Eevee next.

"Eevee, the Evolution Pokémon. Eevee is rarely seen, and can adapt to severe habitats by evolving, changing its capabilities and form. Eevee has an unstable genetic makeup that suddenly mutates due to the environment in which it lives. Radiation from various stones causes this Pokémon to evolve. This Eevee is a male.

"Not bad, we will see what you are planning to evolve into." I said and then scanned Skorupi.

"Skorupi, the Scorpion pokemon. It grips prey with its tail claws and injects poison. It tenaciously hangs on until the poison takes. It lives in arid lands. It buries itself in sand and lies in wait for unsuspecting prey. It can survive a year without food. It burrows under the sand to lie in wait for prey.

Known moves- Bite, Poison Sting, Pin Missile, Acupressure, Pursuit, Bug Bite, Agility, Confuse Ray, Feint Attack, Iron Tail, Night Slash, Poison Tail, Slash, Twineedle."

"Skorupi is young huh." I commented and then scanned Poipole next.

"Poipole, the poison pin pokemon. Poipole displays many emotions, and it's said to be able to understand human speech if it spends enough time together with them. Their large heads are filled with venom, and they fire this venom from the poisonous needles on top of them. An Ultra Beast that lives in a different world, it cackles wildly as it sprays its opponents with poison from the needles on its head. Poipole needs to learn Dragon Pulse to evolve into its next and final stage, Naganadel. This Poipole is a female.

Abilities- Beast Boost.

Known moves- Acid, Peck, Fury Attack, Venoshock, Charm, Venom Drench, Poison Jab, Toxic, Fell Stinger, Gastro Acid, Gunk Shot, Iron Tail, Signal Beam, Snore, Sludge Wave, Sludge Bomb, Protect."

I grinned, "It's strong enough to evolve, I'll start teaching it Dragon Pulse. Once it evolves into Naganadel it'll surely be a powerhouse." I scanned Rufflet next.

"Rufflet, the Eaglet Pokémon. Rufflet's talons are powerful. Able to crack open even the toughest Berries. It often challenges stronger opponents to battle. Known as a natural-born warrior, soon after its hatching, it will challenge its parent to a fight in order to gain their acceptance. With its sharp claws, this Pokémon pierces its prey, and then it pecks at them. Although it also consumes berries, it's a carnivore at heart. They will challenge anything, even strong opponents, without fear. Their frequent fights help them become stronger. This Rufflet is female.

Abilities- Keen Eye, Sheer Force, Hustle (Hidden Ability).

Known moves- Peck, Fury Attack, Wing Attack, Hone Claws, Aerial Ace, Slash, Heat Wave, Snore, Superpower, Crush Claw."

"Rufflet is young as well huh, let's check out my last pokemon." I said and scanned Honedge last.

"Honedge, the Sword Pokémon. It is said that Honedge is actually a spirit living inside a sword. Apparently, this Pokémon is born when a departed spirit inhabits a sword. It attaches itself to people and drinks their life force. If anyone dares to grab its hilt, it wraps its cloth around that person's arm and drains that person's life energy completely. This Honedge is a male, due to its odd colouring it's also a shiny pokemon.

Abilities- No Guard.

Known moves- Sword Dance, Tackle, Fury Cutter, Metal Sound, Destiny Bond, Shadow Sneak, Wide Guard, Aerial Ace, Retaliate, Slash, Autotomize, Sacred Sword."

"Apparently Honedge is young as well, well its time to take some rest after all I will be challenging Battle Pike tomorrow." I said and headed for my room to take some rest.

The next day when I reached near Battle Pike I found Scott talking with three girls, "Hey Scott."

Scott looked at me, "Oh hey Harry, I was expecting you here yesterday."

I nodded, "I was but then I heard about the new addition in Safari zone and I couldn't stop myself from getting some new pokemon.

The blonde girl shrieked like a banshee, "You idiot you made queen Lucy wait for a day."

I glared at her and asked Scott, "Who's this banshee Scott?"

Scott snorted, "This is Barbara, one of Lucy's attendant."

Barbara shouted again, "Hey, who did you call Banshee."

I replied without caring, "Last time I checked there is only one person here who is shrieking loudly and that's you."

Barbara grumbled and shouted again, "You!"

But just then another voice came from behind me, "Barbara shut up will you, why do you have to always shout?"

I turned around and found a young woman with long black hair, Barbara subdued and replied quietly. "Sorry Queen Lucy."

Scott smiled and said, "Harry, as you can already guess this is Pike Queen Lucy, Frontier Brain of Battle Pike."

"Hello Lucy." I said while giving my hand forward.

Lucy shook my hands and replied, "Hello Harry, you are my challenger then. I was expecting you yesterday but no matter lets get the battle started." I nodded and we all entered the Battle Pike.

Once we reached inside, me and Lucy took our position in the battlefield while Scott and the three girls took the stands. The battlefield was a combination of water and ground with few rocks lying around, another girl took the position of referee and started the battle. "This battle will be a two on two pokemon battle between Pike Queen Lucy and the challenger Harry Potter, trainers select your first pokemon and begin the battle."

"Seviper take the field." Lucy sent out her first pokemon.

"Metagross, you are up." I sent out my first pokemon in response to Lucy's Seviper.

Seviper started the battle quickly with Flamethrower that Metagross was unable to dodge, Metagross was hit with Flamethrower and she was pushed back. Metagross steadied itself and used Psychic at Seviper, Seviper was quick to dodge out of its way but Metagross was relentless and attacked Seviper with multiple Psychic. Seviper couldn't dodge all of the Psychic attacks and was hit with it but it quickly recovered and hit back Metagross with Dark Pulse, Metagross tried to get away but was unsuccessful as the Dark Pulse hit her. Metagross got back up and used Psychic again but this time Seviper countered the Psychic with Dark Pulse, the Psychic and Dark Pulse attack collided but Dark Pulse overpowered Psychic and headed for Metagross.

Luckily Metagross was able to dodge out of the way of Dark Pulse but her luck ended there as Seviper quickly hit her with a Flamethrower, Metagross was thrown aback but she replied back with an Earthquake. Seviper didn't get anytime to dodge as the Earthquake hit it and before it could do anything else Metagross followed up the Earthquake with Psyshock which hit Seviper dead on. Seviper attacks were powerful but its defence was lacking, I could tell that Lucy tend to overpower her opponent with powerful attacks with doing minimum work in defence and it was showing. Seviper recovered and used Dark Pulse again but Metagross countered it with Signal Beam, Signal Beam was able to stop the Dark Pulse.

"Seviper finish it up, use Flamethrower." Lucy commanded.

I decided to take a page from Steven's book, "Metagross used Thunder Mash."

Metagross used Meteor Mash combined with Thunder Punch and charged at Seviper bisecting the Flamethrower, Metagross smashed at Seviper resulting in an explosion. As the smoke cleared both Metagross and Seviper were lying down unconscious, it was a double knockout.

Referee declared, "Both Metagross and Seviper are unable to battle, trainers select your last pokemon and resume the battle."

Both me and Lucy recalled our fallen pokemon, I asked Lucy, "Hey Lucy, do you focus on offence only."

Lucy grinned, "I believe that 'good offence is the best defence'. Milotic take the field." With that she sent out her next pokemon.

I smiled, "I agree with your statement but let's see if your offence is truly as great as you say it is. Lapras you are up girl." I sent out my last pokemon.

"Lapras use Perish Song quick." I commanded and Lapras used Perish song quickly, I looked at Lucy. "Now let's see if your offence is as good as you say."

Lucy's Milotic quickly used Outrage which Lapras was unable to dodge, Lapras was pushed back but steadied herself although she was hurt badly. Fortunately for me Milotic next attack was Hydro Pump, I told Lapras to take the hit from Hydro Pump. Due to Lapras Water Absorb ability the Hydro Pump restored her wealth, Lucy cursed under her breath as her Milotic's Hydro Pump undid the work of the previous Outrage.

"Milotic, use Hyper Beam." Lucy shouted.

I replied back, "You too Lapras, use Hyper Beam."

The Hyper Beams of Lapras and Milotic collided and tried to overpower each other, the attacks were equally powerful and as a result they cancelled out each other with an explosion. Milotic fell down unconscious as the Perish Song finally took effect.

"Milotic is unable to battle; the winner of this battle is Harry Potter." Referee announced.

Lucy grumbled at her defeat and then came forward, "Here, the Luck symbol." She handed the Luck Symbol to me and left her three assistant followed her.

I look at the retreating figures as Scott came toward me, "Lucy is a good trainer but she is a sore loser. You challenged her at her own strength and she failed, I think that made her upset."

I shrugged, "I always take every advantage I get but still she was good, I would be in trouble if Milotic's second attack wasn't Hydro Pump."

Scott nodded, "True, no matter you have got your fourth Frontier Symbol, your next challenge is Battle Palace which is in Metallica island. I will wait for you there then, see you later Harry."

"You too Scott." I replied and left for the pokemon centre.

XXXXXX

I took my time to reach Metallica island as I spend as much time as I could to train my pokemon, Purpitar and Shelgon finally evolved together to Tyranitar and Salamence. Tyranitar and Salamence were two more powerhouse that I was planning to train to be one of the strongest member of my team, Poipole learned Dragon Pulse very quickly under the eyes of Dragonite and as a result evolved into Naganadel. Naganadel was just as powerful as I expected, she was a very powerful poison and dragon type pokemon with a wide variety of move sets but overall, she was a prankster at heart and loved to play with everyone.

The Eevee I caught from Safari zone wanted to evolve into a Glaceon, I told her that I'll evolve him when we go to Sinnoh and he is powerful enough. Ponyta was also coming along nicely and was nearer to her evolution, Lotad also evolved into Lombre during battling a battle with a travelling trainer. I also found a mega stone for Heracross and trained him to master his mega evolution.

It took me a week to reach Metallica island, when I reached the pokemon centre I found Scott there waiting for me. "Hey Scott." I greeted him.

Scott got up, "Hello Harry, I was waiting for you. Come, I'll take you to Palace Maven Spenser who is the Frontier Brain of Battle Palace." I followed Scott.

When we reached the Battle Palace I found a big and old Palace like entrance, once we entered we met an old man holding a staff, "Hello Spenser, I have bought your challenger today."

Spenser nodded and looked at Harry, "Hello Harry, lets get our battle started." I nodded and Spenser used an Alakazam to teleport to a battle field in the middle of a forest on a highland. There was a hot balloon nearby and Scott flew up in it, a talking robot flew up and said hello to us. I stared at it as Spenser explained, "This is Zemero, he is able to fly at high speed with high focus lens. Zemero will be our judge as it is a bit difficult to be a referee for our battle."

I stared at Spenser, "Why's that?"

Spenser smiled, "Because the whole forest and the area surrounding it is the battlefield not just this place, we will be using the nature as our battlefield. This battlefield is just a starting point, so are you ready?"

I nodded and Zemero started the official announcement for battle, "This battle will be a three on three pokemon battle between Palace Maven Spenser and the challenger Harry Potter. Trainers select your first pokemon and let the battle begin."

"Now Shiftry, to my side." Spenser released his first pokemon.

I nodded, "It's time for your first official battle, you are up Naganadel."

Shiftry started running away from Naganadel into the forest but Naganadel was faster and quickly overtook Shiftry and attacked it with Sludge Wave which hit Shiftry dead on. Before Shiftry could recover Naganadel followed up the Sludge Wave with Acid which hit Shiftry and also poisoned it as an added effect. Shiftry got back up and hit back Naganadel with Payback, Naganadel was pushed back but it attacked back at Shiftry with Signal Beam. Shiftry dodged the Signal Beam and hit Naganadel with an Aerial Ace, Naganadel was thrown back but she got back up and hit back Shiftry with X-Scissor. Shiftry was unable to dodge as the X-Scissor hit it knocking it out unconscious.

"Shiftry is unable to battle, Spenser chose your next pokemon." Zamero declared.

Spenser recalled his fallen Shiftry and sent out his second pokemon, "Claydol, to my side."

Naganadel was the one to start the battle with Acid but Claydol teleported out of its way, Naganadel tried to use Acid again but Claydon again teleported away and this time Claydol hit back Naganadel with Psybeam. Naganadel got back up and started speeding through the forest and Claydol followed it by teleporting, Naganadel finally stopped near a Waterfall and then used Leech Life on Claydol who just teleported behind her. Claydol was taken by a surprise as Naganadel used Leech Life on it, Claydol quickly steadied itself and hit Naganadel with an Ice Beam which hurt Naganadel badly. Naganadel cried out in pain and slowly tried to get up but Claydol hit her with a Psybeam knocking her out cold.

"Naganadel is unable to battle, Harry chose your next pokemon." Zamero declared.

I returned Naganadel and selected my second pokemon, "Weavile you are up buddy."

Weavile and Claydol stared at each other for a long time but Weavile was the one to start the matchup, Weavile dashed at Claydol with a Feint Attack which hit Claydol dead on and it was sent back flying. Claydol got back up and attacked Weavile with Signal Beam but Weavile was able to dodge away from it by using the surrounding trees and hit Claydol with Night Slash. Claydol groggily got back up as Weavile used Dark Pulse, Claydol quickly teleported to dodge the Dark Pulse. Claydol quickly started running away from Weavile by teleporting away quickly but Weavile ran behind it, me and Spenser followed.

"Weavile use Blizzard." I commanded. Blizzard was a wide area attack and Claydol was caught in it, Claydol stopped teleporting as it was shuttering in the cold due to Blizzard.

"Weavile, it's time to finish it up. Use Icicle Crash." I shouted.

"Teleport away Claydol." Spenser shouted in desperation but it was o no use, the Blizzard hadn't finished as Weavile crashed a big shard of ice on top of Claydol which knocked it out cold.

"Claydol is unable to battle, Spenser chose your last pokemon." Zamero declared.

Spenser smiled and recalled Claydol and sent out his last pokemon, "Venusaur, to my side."

I could tell that Venusaur was very powerful and most probably Spenser's first pokemon but I was confident that I could win this battle, Spenser sat down as his Venusaur used his vines to pick up fruits from nearby trees. Spenser tossed some fruits towards me and Weavile and said, "Let's take a small break Harry, these old bones does need some rest."

I shrugged, "Sure, why not." I sat down and enjoyed the fruits and Weavile did the same. Once we all finished up Spenser said, "Let's resume our battle."

I nodded, "Sure, Weavile let's go."

Weavile started the battle with an Ice Beam but in reply Venusaur used Sludge Bomb to counter the Ice Beam, the two attacks cancelled out each other and Venusaur quickly smashed its vines onto Weavile using Power Whip and sent Weavile flying. Weavile got back up and used Blizzard which hit Venusaur dead on but Venusaur was able to power out his way through the Blizzard and hit back Weavile with Sludge Bomb. The Sludge Bomb hit Weavile and he smashed onto a nearby tree, Weavile slowly got back up and used another Icicle Crash. Venusaur caught the big shard of ice with its strong vines and threw it away.

"Finish it Venusaur, use Solar Beam." Spenser commanded, Venusaur used the bright sun to quickly charge up the Solar Beam and hit Weavile with it. Weavile was knocked out cold as the Solar Beam hit him.

"Weavile is unable to battle, Harry chose your last pokemon." Zamero declared.

I recalled Weavile, "Since we are battling in a forest, my last pokemon will be the guardian of the forest. Go Celebi, you are up."

Spenser stared at Celebi with a smile, "Thank you Harry for this opportunity, I have lived most of life in the hands of nature and I have seen Celebi only once in my long lifetime. This is the second time I am seeing a Celebi and this time I'll be battling it, no matter Venusaur lets reveal the power of nature, connect with the nature and mega evolve." Spenser touched his shaft which housed his key stone, the connection between the keystone and Venusaur mega stone was formed as Venusaur quickly started changing and it mega evolved.

I smiled, "That's well and good but this battle will be over soon, Celebi use Perish Song."

Celebi used Perish song quickly but Mega Venusaur used Sludge Bomb which hit Celebi dead on, Mega Venusaur quickly followed it up with Venoshock but this time Celebi was prepared and she countered the Venoshock with Psychic. Mega Venusaur was about to use Solar Beam but the weather changed at that moment as a result it stopped, Celebi used it to her advantage and hit Mega Venusaur with a Psychic. Mega Venusaur was pushed back but it used Outrage in reply but Celebi quickly used Hyper Beam to counter the Outrage, the powerful attacks collided and cancelled out each other with an explosion. Mega Venusaur changed back to his original position and slumped down unconscious as the Perish Song finally took effect.

"Venusaur is unable to battle, the winner of this battle is the challenger Harry." Zamaro announced my victory as both me and Spenser recalled our pokemon.

Scott came down in the hot air balloon and landed nearby, Spenser too came forward. "You have got talent young Harry, I wish you luck for your future endeavours. Here the Spirits Symbol."

I took my fifth symbol and replied, "Thanks Spenser."

Scott said, "Well that was something, it looks like you caught a new legendry huh Harry. By the way your next challenge is Battle Tower is near Tohjo Falls, I will see you there then."

I nodded, "Sure Scott, see you there." With that I left the Battle Palace.
