End Recap.
Flashback-Kanto region-Five in half years ago
A 13-year-old Anthony Jenny walks threw a forest "It's been nine months since my father died and the ache is still fresh, my family is probably still looking for me, but I just wish they'd stop there's no point nothing they can do will help" Anthony says to himself in his thoughts.
"There it is!" Anthony says out loud and the thing of which he sees a large wall, which has the Poke-Ball symbol on it "The Battle Arena" Anthony says revealing the reason he was going threw the forest and goes to the entrance and knocks on it.
The door then opens and inside the wall is a dojo and he see's several people wearing blue karate robes wearing yellow belts and in the center is a woman wearing a black robe with red stripes on it, white belt and blond hair.
"Are you the Arena Tycoon Greta?" Anthony asks walking into the walls of the Battle Arena "Yes I am, who are you?" Greta asks, "Does it matter who I am?" Anthony asks "It does actually if you want to learn here" Greta responds.
"Why do you think I wish to learn from your dojo?" Anthony asks, "Why else would you be here?" Greta asks and Anthony realizes he can't fool Greta "My name is Anthony, I wish to learn martial arts here" Anthony says and Greta smiles.
End Flashback-Commerce City-Present Time
The sun begins to rise over Commerce City at around eight o'clock in the morning and Bianca wakes up in her sleeping clothes, which are a long sleeved light blue shirt and purple pajama bottoms and Bianca then yawns a bit then stretches her arms a bit and then gets out of her bed in the Pokemon Center.
She then goes over to Ash's bed to see its been made and him and Pikachu aren't in it "Where are Ash and Pikachu?" Bianca asks and she looks out the window to see Ash, Pikachu and Ash's Kabuto who Ash obtained in Cerulean City several weeks ago (Remember back to Chapter 14 of the story) outside apparently training for Ash's rematch with the Commerce City's arrogant Gym leader Leaf who he lost to yesterday.
"Alright lets see what you can do…Kabuto use scratch!" Ash says and the Shellfish Pokémon's claw glows white and runs at one of the trees and begins to scratch it up "Kabuto-buto!" Kabuto says as it scratches up the bark on the tree with scratch "Ash what are you doing?" Bianca asks and Ash and Pikachu turns around to see Bianca outside of the Pokemon center behind them (She's dressed in her daytime clothes now).
"I'm training with my Kabuto I got it revived from a fossil a few weeks ago actually" Ash explains to Bianca revealing what he is doing with the Shellfish Pokemon "Kabuto? I've never seen that Pokemon before" Bianca says (But if you remember Pokemon Heroes she has met Kabuto's evolve form).
"Here take a look" Ash says and hands Bianca his Pokedex and Bianca while not very familiar with how to work the device manages to find the button to activate it and scans Ash's Kabuto with it.
"Kabuto the Shellfish Pokémon. It is thought to have inhabited beaches 300 million years ago. It is protected by a stiff shell"
"So how much have you used Kabuto since you got it revived?" Bianca asks "I haven't used it in a battle at all actually yet" Ash says "So does that mean you're not gonna use him against Leaf?" Bianca asks, "Defiantly not, Kabuto needs more training before I can use him in a gym battle" Ash says (Which is a pretty smart thing because Kabuto in a game would probably be at level 20 right now).
"So what Pokemon are you gonna use against Leaf?" Bianca asks and inside of the Pokemon Center Nurse Joy who had just gotten up hears Bianca's words (Don't ask me how she can hear them from inside the center) and her eyes instantly widen and she runs right out of the Pokemon Center and over to Ash and Bianca who both take notice to her presence and Joy grabs Ash by the shoulders and shakes him around.
"YOU'RE GOING TO CHALLENGE LEAF TO A REMATCH!" Joy says in a loud tone of voice so loud that the entire city can probably hear her voice and releases her grip on Ash and stares at him "Ugh…yeah" Ash says and Nurse Joy groans "I TOLD YOU NOT TO CHALLENGE HER IN THE FIRST PLACE AND LOOK WHAT HAPPENED, CAN'T YOU LISTEN TO GOOD ADVICE WHEN IT'S GIVEN TO YOU?" Joy asks once again in a loud tone of voice.
"Look Nurse Jenny, no that's not right…Jill no…Jamie…no…Jane…wait no that's not right either…of wait Joy! Listen, Ash is not backing down from battling and beating that cocky girl Leaf!" Bianca says since she doesn't like Leaf in the slightest as shown in Ash's first battle with the arrogant Commerce City Gym Leader.
"YOU LISTEN! Leaf hasn't lost one battle against any trainer who challenged her! Trust me you should just go to another gym somewhere else at least then you'd have a chance" Joy says "Well you listen! Ash isn't backing down from this! Someone has to stand up and beat Leaf into the ground, and before she reaches a hundred victories!" Bianca says (You can tell she is going to be supportive of Ash throughout the story).
"Bianca's right! No way am I backing down from this!" Ash says his spirit more pumped then ever thanks to Bianca's words.
Nurse Joy frowns from what Bianca and Ash had just said to her and stomps her foot down on the ground in anger "FINE! But don't you expect me to treat your Pokémon's injuries again after Leaf defeats you again!" Joy yells and then slams her foot down on the ground in anger again and storms off back into the Pokemon Center.
"Hey…. Ash what was all that about?" May asks yawning a bit having just woken up just a few minutes ago "Yeah, why was Nurse Joy yelling at you?" Dawn asks having heard Joy yelling at Ash (But of course half of the city could probably hear her with a voice that loud Dawn).
"Bianca mentioned I'm going to have a rematch with Leaf and she flipped out" Ash says recounting what just happened "She also said she won't heal Ash's Pokemon again if Leaf beats him in the rematch but she sounded like she really thought he's gonna lose" Bianca says adding more to the conversation they are having.
"I need to start training hard if I'm gonna beat Leaf guys" Ash says "Yeah and you have to beat her before she fights her hundredth challenger!" Bianca says "Why?" Dawn asks.
"Because Dawn, then Leaf will be completely humiliated in front of the city!" Bianca says revealing her reason why she thinks Ash should challenge Leaf to a rematch battle when she reaches up to a hundred challengers.
"When does the Gym open anyway?" May asks "Around ten so that means we've got two hours to train" Max says having looked up the time when the Gym opens "Then lets get started...in a minute" Ash says and then walks into the Pokemon Center "Ash what are you doing?" Bianca asks, "I need to call someone" Ash says and goes inside the Pokemon Center.
A few moments later after calling whomever it is he did Ash comes out of the Pokemon Center "So whom did you call anyway Ash?" Bianca asks, "I called up for a Pokemon that's in training" Ash says revealing why he was calling someone in the Pokemon Center.
"Who?" May asks wondering which Pokemon Ash has called for "A Pokemon who might be able to beat Leaf" Ash says "Wait what about Zekrom?" Dawn asks remembering Ash has recently captured the legendary deep dark Pokemon of Unova.
"I'm only going to use Zekrom as a reserve Pokemon, like a last resort kind of thing, plus I want to train with some of my other Pokemon" Ash explains (Which seems like a good idea because you don't want the rest of your Pokemon to be low leveled).
Bianca then begins to get impatient and slams her foot on the ground "Come on guys! We have to start training right now if you're gonna beat Leaf Ash!" Bianca says showing she wants Ash to defeat Leaf pretty badly (But to be honest who could really blame her?).
A few moments later Dawn is on one side of the outside battlefield with her Togekiss who stands gracefully as always and on Ash's side of the battlefield is Ash with his newly captured Zorua, which he captured while him and the gang were in Castelia City while in the Unova region.
"Alright! Togekiss use Aura Sphere!" Dawn says and Togekiss puts both of her wings together and fires multiple light blue balls of energy from the front of her mouth at Zorua "Alright! Zorua dodge it!" Ash says and the Tricky Fox Pokemon dodges the Aura sphere attack and then without Ash even so much as giving it a command uses its illusion ability and turns into a Togekiss itself and chuckles "What was that?" Bianca asks not knowing what Zorua just did and Bianca pulls out Ash's Pokedex, which Ash has allowed her to borrow to learn more about Zorua's special ability.
"Illusion is a special ability which allows the user to change its shape into a human or Pokémon. It can also create illusions, which can even fool cameras. The only known Pokemon to be able to use this ability is Zorua and its evolved form Zoroark"
"Okay…Zorua use Night Daze!" Ash says and Zorua reverts back to its original form and its eyes glow light blue and it raises its front two paws into the air and its body then becomes surrounded in a crimson aura and then Zorua brings its paws down to the ground and a pink and crimson force-field of energy appears around Zorua's body and expands outwards throughout the whole battlefield.
"Togekiss dodge it!" Dawn says and the Jubilee Pokemon flies up into the air dodging Zorua's Night Daze attack "Now use Aura Sphere!" Dawn says and Togekiss who is in the air puts both of her wings together and then fires a light blue sphere of energy sending it right at Zorua.
"Zorua, quick! Dodge it!" Ash says and Zorua jumps out of the way before the Aura Sphere can make contact with it "Good! Now jump up and use scratch!" Ash says and Zorua jumps in the air and the crimson part of one of Zorua's paws glows light blue and hits Togekiss with it and then jumps back down to the ground.
"Togekiss use Air slash!" Dawn says and Togekiss lifts up one wing and it glows light blue and then swings it releasing multiple light blue glowing saw disc-like energy blades from its wing sending straight at Zorua "Zorua, Quick! Dodge 'em!" Ash says and Zorua begins to dodge the Air slash attacks, which are being fired at it by Dawn's Togekiss but the last one manages to hit Zorua, which flips the Tricky Fox Pokemon right off the battlefield.
Zorua then gets up looking even more determined to win "Zorua use Shadow Ball!" Ash says and then Zorua at its trainer's command opens up its mouth and forms a sphere of black and purple energy with black static around it and fires it right at Togekiss.
"Togekiss use Protect!" Dawn says and Togekiss folds up both of her wings and a turquoise energy shield forms around her body and Zorua's shadow ball attack hits the shield and does nothing and Zorua frowns at this and its eyes glow blue and Togekiss becomes outlined in light blue briefly and Zorua smiles a bit evilly.
"Hey? What did Zorua just do?" Bianca asks.
"Zorua use Shadow Ball again!" Ash says and Zorua once again opens up its mouth and forms a sphere of black and purple energy with black static around it and fires it right at Togekiss.
"Togekiss! Quick! Use Protect again!" Dawn says and Togekiss prepares to use Protect again but surprisingly nothing happens at all and Zorua's shadow ball attack strikes Togekiss and she falls right down on to the ground below and Togekiss gets up but it seems to be getting tired.
"Oh I get it! Zorua used disable!" Max says realizing what move Zorua used on Togekiss "Disable?" Bianca asks and then pulls out Ash's Pokedex to check what the move is which Zorua just used.
"Disable is a normal type move which will stop the user's opponent from using the same move they used again"
"Whoa! I didn't know Zorua knew that!" Ash says astonished by the move that Zorua just used (It can be a very useful move most of the time).
"Alright lets see what else Zorua can do! Togekiss use Sky attack!" Dawn says and Togekiss' body becomes surrounded by a pure white aura and she flies right towards Zorua and as she does, a white trail of energy is left behind her.
Zorua using its illusion ability transforms into a Togekiss itself and flies up into the air just when Dawn's Togekiss comes down and crashes right into the ground where Zorua was and Zorua switches back to its own form and fires a shadow ball attack where Togekiss is.
"Togekiss!" Dawn says and the dust clears around Togekiss and it shows the Jubilee Pokemon has fainted with swirls in her eyes.
"Zorua! That was great!" Ash says impressed by Zorua's battle with Dawn's Togekiss and Dawn then recalls the fainted Jubilee Pokemon back to her Poke ball "Thanks Togekiss, you really helped Zorua train" Dawn says.
Soon the group then goes into to the Pokemon Center to get Togekiss healed up and the Nurse Joy inside turns to see them and frowns "You're still going to challenge Leaf aren't you?" Joy asks in a frustrated tone of voice.
"I'm not backing down from this, someone has to beat her and its gonna be me" Ash says determined to battle Leaf and defeat her (Which NEEDS to happen) "Could you heal up my Togekiss Nurse Joy, me and Ash were training for his rematch?" Dawn asks and Nurse Joy frowning takes Togekiss' Poke ball and walks off to have the Jubilee Pokemon health fully restored.
"So who are you going to use this time?" May asks "I'm thinking of using Zorua" Ash says "That might be a good idea, Zorua's ability illusion might confuse Leaf's Pokemon" Max says having studied the move a bit since he heard about it.
"Hey! I got an idea! Why not use Latias?" Dawn asks remembering Ash captured the Eon Pokemon two days ago in Alto Mare "That won't happen Dawn" Bianca says "What? Why not?" Dawn asks, "Latias doesn't really like to fight very much, she's a pacifist" Bianca explains revealing why Latias is not a good choice to use in a Pokemon battle "Oh I get it" Dawn says.
"Actually know that I think about it, I know who I'm gonna use besides Zorua" Ash says and a roar can be heard outside in the distance and the group hears it "Where'd that come from?" Bianca asks and Ash smiles "Outside, it's the Pokemon I called for" Ash says and the group goes outside to see what's out there and they look up in the air to see that the Pokemon Ash called for is his Charizard.
"Hey! It's your Charizard!" May says recognizing the flame Pokemon and Bianca astonished by this pulls out Ash's Pokedex to check for data on Charizard.
"Charizard the Flame Pokémon. Charizard flies around the sky in search of powerful opponents. It breathes fire of such great heat that it melts anything, even boulders. Its wings can carry it close to an altitude of 4,600 feet."
Charizard then flies on to the ground and roars once again "Charizard! Great to see you buddy!" Ash says since he hasn't seen Charizard since his battle with the Pyramid King Brandon over four years ago (You'd think he'd visit him since he's taken a year off from traveling).
"Why didn't Professor Oak just send him over in a Poke ball instead of having him fly here?" Bianca asks, "Charizard doesn't stay at Professor Oak's lab Bianca, he stays in the Johto region in a place called Charicific Valley it's a place where Charizard train and get stronger" Ash explains.
"So how long has Charizard been there for?" Dawn asks, "About five years, he's learned a lot of new attacks there and he might be just the Pokemon who can beat Leaf's" Ash explains and suddenly the group see's a trainer run into the Pokemon Center.
"Looks like Leaf just fought her ninety-ninth trainer" Dawn says "Then I have to challenge her before someone else does" Ash says and goes into the Pokemon Center to swap around the Pokemon that are currently in his party for his battle with Leaf.
Once he is finished Ash comes out of the Pokemon having changed the Pokemon (Besides Pikachu, Charizard and Zorua) in his party "You ready?" Bianca asks and Ash nods.
The group then heads over to the Gym entrance where the referee opens the door "Whoa, you actually kept on your promise of coming back" the referee says having not expected Ash to come back for his rematch (He didn't mean it in a rude way by the way).
"Is Leaf in there?" Ash asks the referee walking into the Gym with the group "Yeah she's waiting patiently for her one hundredth challenger…she's not expecting you to come back" the referee explains and they reach the door into the battlefield where Leaf is and he opens it up.
"Leaf the challenger from yesterday is here!" the referee says "Yeah, which one?" Leaf asks seemingly uninterested looking at her nails "The second one" The referee answers and Leaf's eyes widen interested by this and Ash enters the battlefield while his friends sit on the benches.
"So, you actually worked up the nerve and came here" Leaf says, "Like I'm backing down from beating you" Ash says determined to beat the arrogant Gym Leader and Leaf laughs from Ash's comeback "Yeah right, like that's gonna happen" Leaf says and pulls out a Poke ball.
"You know what…I think this should be a five on five battle, just to see how bad some your other Pokemon must be and I can finally have my one hundredth victory!" Leaf says and laughs while Bianca sitting on the bench in the Gym groans getting angrier at Leaf's arrogance "I am so close to strangling her right now!" Bianca says to herself in her thoughts.
"The battle between Gym Leader Leaf and the Challenger Ash is about to begin it is a four on four battle and in addition only the challenger can…" "Will you shut it? He probably already knows all this!" Leaf says rudely interrupting the referee and he sighs from what Leaf just said to him and sits down (Man she can be a bitch).
Ash then pulls out a Poke ball and holds it up in the air "Gabite I choose you!" Ash says and throws the Poke ball into the air and the Cave Pokemon is unleashed from his Poke ball "Gabite!" he exclaims and Bianca pulls out Ash's Pokemon to see the data on this Pokemon.
"Gabite the Cave Pokemon and the evolved form of Gible. There is a long-held belief that medicine made from its scales will heal even incurable illnesses"
Leaf then smiles "I've got just the Pokemon to handle that, Bully I choose you!" Leaf says and throws a Poke ball in the air and the Pokemon unleashed from it is a Granbull, which Leaf has given the nickname "Bully".
"It's a Granbull!" Max says, "It sure looks mean" Dawn says, and Bianca pulls out Ash's Pokedex to check out the data on the Fairy Pokemon (Why is it called the Fairy Pokemon? It looks nothing like a fairy).
"Granbull the Fairy Pokemon. Granbull has a particularly well-developed lower jaw. The enormous fangs it has are heavy, causing the Pokémon to tip its head back for balance. Unless it is startled, it will not try to bite indiscriminately"
"Gabite use Rock Smash!" Ash says and one of Gabite's claws turns red-orange and runs over to strike Bully with it "Dodge it and use Ice Fang!" Leaf says and Bully jumps out of the way and bits down on Gabite's neck and white mist starts to seep out of its mouth and ice starts to form from his mouth and begins to expand around Gabite's body.
"Ah! Gabite use Flamethrower! Quick!" Ash says and The Cave Pokemon hits Bully with a beam of fire and pushes him of and melts the ice on him and Gabite jumps on to the ground but shutters a bit since his HP level was reduced a bit by Bully's ice fang attack.
"Gabite you okay?" Ash asks the Cave Pokemon and he nods still having enough strength in his body to fight "Bully use Bite!" Leaf says and the Fairy Pokemon at his trainer's command runs over to Gabite and goes to bite down on the Cave Pokemon but Gabite dodges Bully's advance "Gabite use Rock Smash!" Ash says and Gabite's claw turns red-orange and strikes the Fairy Pokemon, which reduces Bully's health level severely due to him being a Normal-Type Pokemon.
"Ah! Bully!" Leaf says "Alright, Gabite finish this up with Draco Meteor!" Ash says and Gabite's body glows orange and an orange sphere of light appears inside its chest and then the glow fades and a sphere of orange energy appears in front of Gabite's mouth and he fires the ball into the air and it explodes, releasing many orbs which rain down upon Bully and causes small explosions on the Fair Pokemon.
"Bully! Are you okay?" Leaf asks concerned for her Pokémon's health and the smoke clears around Bully showing him to have fainted from the Draco Meteor and the referee looks at this shocked "Granbull is unable to battle, the winner is Gabite!" the referee proclaims "But that kid has a long to winning this battle" the referee says in his thoughts.
Leaf a bit annoyed recalls Bully back to his Poke ball and kisses it then puts it away and looks straight at Ash "Look! That was total luck that you beat my Bully, it won't happen again!" Leaf says and pulls out another Poke ball.
"What Pokemon do you guys think Leaf is gonna next?" Dawn asks "I don't know but whoever it is it'll probably be as strong as her other Pokemon" Max says.
"Jiggly I choose you!" Leaf says and throws the Poke ball in the air and the Pokemon unleashed from it is Leaf's Jigglypuff who has the nickname "Jiggly" who twirls around upon being unleashed "Jigglypuff!" she exclaims upon being unleashed.
Bianca then pulls out Ash's Pokedex to check the data on the Balloon Pokemon.
"Jigglypuff the Balloon Pokémon. When this Pokémon sings nothing can avoid falling asleep hearing a Jigglypuff song. The sound waves of its singing voice can match the brain waves of someone in a deep sleep"
"Gabite use Dragon Pulse!" Ash says and Gabite opens up his mouth and a turquoise sphere of energy appears in front of it and then fires the sphere right at Jiggly "Jiggly use Protect!" Leaf says and a bluish-green force field appears around Jiggly's body protecting it from Gabite's Dragon Pulse attack.
"What?" Ash asks "Pika?" Pikachu asks shocked by this.
"Now use Attract!" Leaf says and Jiggly opens up her arms and releases multiple yellow hearts from her body, which all hit Gabite and upon contact Gabite's eyes are replaced with pink hearts "Gabite!" Gabite says infatuated by Jiggly because of attract.
"Now that he's too busy goggling over you Jiggly, use DoubleSlap!" Leaf says and both of Jiggly's hands glow white and she begins to repeatedly slap Gabite with them "Now use Ice Beam!" Leaf says and Jiggly fires a beam of light blue energy, which severely reduces Gabite's HP level due to it being an ice-type move and Gabite falls to the ground fainted.
"Gabite is unable to battle the winner is Jigglypuff!" the referee proclaims.
"It looks like your Gabite just when too gaga over my Jiggly, that was his first mistake!" Leaf says and laughs at Ash, as does Jiggly "Gabite return" Ash says and recalls the fainted Cave Pokemon back to his Poke ball.
"You might as well just give up right now if the rest of your Pokemon are like Gabite then its no duh you're gonna lose" Leaf says (How the hell did she become Gym Leader by the way?) arrogantly already believing she is going to win this battle.
Ash then pulls out another Poke ball "Alright, Zorua I choose you!" Ash says and throws the Pokemon in the air and the Tricky Fox Pokemon is unleashed from its Poke ball "Zo-Zorua!" Zorua says upon being unleashed from its Poke ball.
Leaf is surprised by Zorua having never seen that kind of Pokemon before but then smirks "Oh please like that Pokemon is gonna beat me, in fact the only thing I see strong about it is that its cute, but to be frank not that cute" Leaf says rudely (Wrong! Zorua is considered to be very adorable).
"You haven't seen anything yet," Ash says and Zorua activates its illusion ability and turns into a Jigglypuff who is identical to Jiggly "What the? What did it just do?" Leaf asks not familiar with Zorua's special ability.
"Zorua use Night Daze!" Ash says and Zorua's eyes (In Jigglypuff form) glow light blue and it raises both of its arms into the air and its body becomes surrounded in a crimson aura and then Zorua (In Jigglypuff form) brings both of its hands down to the ground and a pink and crimson force field of energy appears around Zorua's body which rams into Jiggly sending her flying across the battlefield.
Jiggly lands on the ground and while a bit weakened by Night Daze manages to pick herself up and gives Zorua in its Jigglypuff illusion form an intimidating stare as does Leaf "Listen up! It doesn't matter what little magic tricks that Zorua or whatever it's called won't help you beat us!" Leaf says "Jig-Jigglypuff!" Jiggly says agreeing with her trainer.
Zorua then sheds its illusion disguise and gives a smirk of mischief "Jiggly use Attract!" Leaf says and Jiggly fires several hearts right at Zorua, which hit it and does nothing at all and Zorua just smiles at this.
"Attract didn't work on Zorua!" Dawn says, "Yeah but Gabite is a boy which makes Jigglypuff a girl," Max says, "Then that means Zorua is a girl!" Bianca says putting all the pieces together.
"Zorua use Shadow Ball!" Ash says and Zorua opens up her mouth and forms a sphere of black and purple energy with black static around and front of it and then fires it at Jiggly "Dodge it!" Leaf says and the Balloon Pokemon dodges the Ghost Type attack fired by Zorua.
"Now Jiggly use Tri-Attack!" Leaf says and a three-point pyramid forms around Jiggly's body and an orb of light forms at the tip of the pyramid and Jiggly then fires a beam from the orb at Zorua, which sends the Tricky Fox Pokemon flying.
Zorua then activates her illusion ability and changes into a Togekiss (The only flying Pokemon she's probably seen by now) and safely floats in the air and Leaf becomes a bit irritated by this and sneers "Jiggly use Ice beam!" Leaf says and Jiggly fires an ice beam attack in the air trying to hit Zorua (In Togekiss form) with it.
"Zorua use Shadow Ball!" Ash says and Zorua (In Togekiss form) opens up her mouth and fires a sphere of black and purple energy right at Jiggly, which sends the Balloon Pokemon flying across the battlefield and smacks right down on to the ground and faints.
"Jigglypuff is unable to battle the winner is Zorua!" the referee says.
Leaf then recalls Jiggly back to her Poke ball and kisses it "You did your best Jiggly get some rest" Leaf says and puts Jiggly's Poke ball away.
"So now Ash has four Pokemon left and Leaf only has three" Dawn says, "Come on Ash! You can beat her!" Bianca says wanting to give Ash some encouragement.
"I don't think so! Alright Zam, lets win this fight!" Leaf says and throws the Poke ball in the air and the Pokemon unleashed from it is an Alakazam, which has the nickname Leaf has given it "Zam".
"Alakazam!" It proclaims upon being unleashed and Bianca pulls out Ash's Pokedex to check the data on the Psi Pokemon.
"Alakazam the Psi Pokémon. Alakazam's brain continually grows, infinitely multiplying brain cells. This amazing brain gives this Pokémon an astoundingly high IQ of 5,000. It has a thorough memory of everything that has occurred in the world"
"That's a big mistake Leaf, Zorua's a dark type Pokemon" Ash says pointing out that Zam is at a type disadvantage since it is a Psychic type Pokemon while Zorua is a dark type "Ugh…yeah I know that…but that doesn't mean you'll win!" Leaf says (She's lying just so you know).
"Zorua use Dark Pulse!" Ash says and Zorua opens up her mouth and an orb of black and dark blue circles appears in front of it and then fires a beam of black and dark blue circles from the orb, which immediately hits Zam (Zorua caught it by surprise) sending the Psi Pokemon crashing into the wall on Leaf's side of the battlefield.
"Zam? Are you okay?" Leaf asks going over to where the Psi Pokemon is "Alakazam" Zam says and with some assistance from Leaf gets back on it feet and runs back over to where it was on the battlefield ready to continue its battle with Ash and Zorua.
"Don't think your gonna win all because you have a type advantage!" Leaf says to Ash and holds out her hand "Zam use ThunderPunch!" Leaf says and Zam's fist becomes surrounded by electrical sparks and runs over to punch Zorua but the Tricky Fox Pokemon jumps into the air dodging the attack.
"Zorua use Dark Pulse! Again!" Ash says and Zorua opens up her mouth and an orb of black and dark blue circles appears in front of it and then fires a beam of black and dark blue circles from the orb, which hits Zam right in the head blasting him right to the ground.
The dust clears around Zam and it shows that the Psi Pokemon has fainted with swirls in its eyes.
"Alakazam is unable to battle, the winner is Zorua!" The referee proclaims "It's starting to look like Leaf is going to lose, wonderful" the referee says in his thoughts actually hoping Ash wins this battle (Who could blame him?).
Leaf then recalls Zam back to its Poke ball.
"Hey guys look at Leaf she looks like she's looks mad" Dawn says looking at Leaf's irritated expression "She's losing of course she's mad" Bianca says with a smile on her face and Leaf looks at them giving them an angry and intimidating stare.
"Hey! Remember our battle?" Ash asks "Pika-Pikachu!" Pikachu says and this brings Leaf's attention back to them "Don't think all because you have two more Pokemon then me, means you'll win!" Leaf says and pulls out another Poke ball.
"Nido we have a fight to win!" Leaf says and throws a Poke ball in the air and the Pokemon unleashed is her Nidoqueen, which Leaf has given the nickname "Nido".
"Nidoqueen!" Nido exclaims upon being unleashed from her Poke ball.
"Alright Zorua use Dark Pulse!" Ash says and Zorua fires a beam of black and dark blue circles at Nido "Dodge it" Leaf says and Nido dodges the dark-type move and Ash, Pikachu and Zorua gasp from this "Now use Brick Break!" Leaf says and Nido runs over to Zorua and her arm glows white and she strikes the Tricky Fox Pokemon with it, which severely cuts her HP levels due to it being a fighting-type move.
"Now use Rock Smash!" Leaf says and Nido's arm glows white and she smashes Zorua with it sending her flying and she hits the ground and faints with swirls in her eyes.
"Zorua is unable to battle the winner is Nidoqueen!" the referee proclaims.
"Looks like you're down to just three Pokemon left, I can't wait to see how bad they fight!" Leaf says and Ash gets a bit angry by what Leaf just said to him and pulls out a Poke ball "Tauros I choose you!" Ash says and throws a Poke ball in the air and the Pokemon unleashed is Tauros (This match up is familiar) and Bianca pulls out her Pokedex curious about this one.
"Tauros the Wild Bull Pokémon. This Pokémon is not satisfied unless it is rampaging at all times. If there is no opponent for Tauros to battle, it will charge at thick trees and knock them down to calm itself"
"Nido use Brick Break!" Leaf says and Nido runs towards it with her arm glowing "Dodge it!" Ash says and Tauros runs out of the way before Nido can get him "Now use Double Team!" Ash says and Tauros' body glows white and splits into multiple copies of him.
"Nido? Nidoqueen?" Nido asks not being able to tell which one is the real Tauros "Now use Fissure!" Ash says and Tauros rattles the battlefield with his hooves, and then uses one of his hooves to slice open the ground with a white energy beam and Nido falls right into it and Leaf looks down to see if Nido is okay only to see Nido fainted (It's a one hit K-O!).
"Nidoqueen is unable to battle, the winner is Tauros!" the referee proclaims.
"Yes! Looks like that stuck-up bitch won't be winning any battles today!" Bianca says in her thoughts with a smile on her face (Who knew she used such language?).
Leaf then recalls Nido back to her Poke ball and pulls out a Poke ball and smiles at it "I know you can't be beat" Leaf says and holds the Poke ball up in the air "Blasty come out and teach these guys a lesson!" Leaf says and she throws the Poke ball in the air and the Pokemon unleashed from it is Leaf's Blastoise, which she has given the nickname of "Blasty" to.
"Blastoise!" he exclaims upon being unleashed and Bianca pulls out Ash's Pokedex to see the data on the Shellfish Pokemon.
"Blastoise the Shellfish Pokémon. Blastoise has waterspouts that protrude from its shell. The waterspouts are very accurate. They can shoot bullets of water with enough accuracy to strike empty cans from a distance of over 160 feet"
"Blasty here is my strongest Pokemon and no challenger has beaten it, so don't get your hopes up about winning this" Leaf says, "You shouldn't either, Tauros use Horn Attack!" Ash says and Tauros' horns glow white and charges at Blasty at high speed.
"Blasty dodge it!" Leaf says and Blasty dodges the horn attack and lands right behind Tauros "Now use Focus Blast!" Leaf says and Blasty puts his hands together and forms a light blue orb of energy and then raises his hands above his head and the orb grows as big as his own body and then throws the orb right at Tauros and the Wild Bull Pokemon is knocked into the wall and falls to the ground fainted (It's a fighting type move and Blastoise is a pretty high leveled Pokemon).
"Tauros is unable to battle the winner is Blastoise!" the referee proclaims.
Ash then recalls Tauros back to his Poke ball and puts it away and pulls out another "I've only got two Pokemon left I'm able to use, lets hope one of them can beat Leaf" Ash says to himself in his thoughts looking at the Poke ball "Alright Sceptile I choose you!" Ash says and throws the Poke ball in the air and the Forest Pokemon is unleashed from it.
"Sceptile!" The Forest Pokemon exclaims after being unleashed and Bianca pulls out Ash's Pokedex.
"Sceptile the Forest Pokemon. It agilely leaps about the jungle and uses the sharp leaves on its arms to strike its prey"
"Oh so all because it's a grass type means it will win I don't think so!" Leaf says (She's trying to hide her fear of losing this battle with him by talking like that).
"Sceptile use Leaf Blade!" Ash says and the four leaves on Sceptile's wrists glow light green and form into two and Sceptile then goes to slice Blasty with it "Blasty use Ice beam!" Leaf says and Blasty hits Sceptile with multiple light blue beams of energy which freezes Sceptile up and the frozen Forest Pokemon falls to the ground and the ice shatters around it and Sceptile faints (I didn't even give him a chance).
"Sceptile is unable to battle the winner is Blastoise!" the referee proclaims.
"Looks like you've got just one Pokemon left, you could always use that Pikachu on your shoulder, but I doubt it can beat my Blasty" Leaf says and Ash pulls out the Poke ball containing his last usable Pokemon more determined then ever to win this battle against Leaf.
"I know it's been a long time old buddy, but I need your help…so Charizard I choose you!" Ash says and throws the Poke ball in the air and in an instant Charizard is unleashed from the Poke ball and the Flame Pokemon lets out a mighty roar.
Leaf then breaks out into laughter as does Blasty "If you actually believe that a fire type Pokemon can beat a water type one, then you're even dumber then I thought" Leaf says "We'll see about that, Charizard use DragonBreath!" Ash says and Charizard fires a transparent beam of energy from its mouth at Blasty.
"Blasty use Protect!" Leaf says and at his trainer's commands a light blue-green veil of energy forms around Blasty, which protects it from Charizard's DragonBreath attack "Now use Hydro Cannon!" Leaf says and Blasty fires two powerful orbs of water from its cannons.
"Quick Charizard dodge it!" Ash says and Charizard flies out of the way of the Hydro Cannon and nearly gets hit while flying "Blasty use Brine!" Leaf says and Blasty fires a blast of powerful stream of water, which is heading straight for Charizard in the air.
"Charizard dodge it and use Dragon Rage!" Ash says and Charizard opens its mouth and forms a light blue orb of energy inside of its mouth and then fires a beam of energy from the orb at Blasty, which sends the Shellfish Pokemon crashing into the wall but doesn't make him faint and pulls himself out.
"Blasty use Water Pulse!" Leaf says and Blasty opens up his mouth and a light blue orb of energy and launches the orb at Charizard in the air "Quick dodge it!" Ash says and Charizard does just this but the Water Pulse hits him and the Flame Pokemon falls to the ground.
"Charizard are you okay?" Ash asks and Charizard struggles to get up but does it never the less "Great, alright use SmokeScreen!" Ash says and Charizard unleashes a thick black smoke from its mouth around Blasty and Leaf.
"Since we does Charizard know that move?" May asks not remembering the Flame Pokemon ever using that move (Well you've only seen him use Charizard like twice so you don't know a lot of his moves) "Charizard must have learned it in Charicific Valley" Max theorizes (Which is true by the way).
Leaf coughs while the Smokescreen fog "Blasty can you see anything?" Leaf asks and Blasty is shown to able to see anything threw the thick black fog and Charizard flies in towards him while he is confused "Now! Charizard use ThunderPunch!" Ash says and Charizard's fist becomes surrounded by yellow electricity and Charizard punches Blasty right in the stomach severely reducing the Shellfish Pokémon's HP due to ThunderPunch being an electric type move.
"Now use Steel Wing!" Ash says and both of Charizard's wings glow white and strikes Blasty with both of them "Now use DragonBreath!" Ash says and Charizard fires a transparent beam of energy with white rings around it from its mouth right into Blasty (I'm having blast this one alright).
"Now finish it up with another ThunderPunch!" Ash says and Charizard's hand once again becomes surrounded by yellow electricity and punches Blasty once again right in the stomach sending him flying right and slamming right into the wall on Leaf's side of the battlefield and fog clears around them and Blasty falls to the ground fainted.
The referee see's this and his eyes widen in surprise "Blastoise is unable to battle the winner is Charizard! The victory goes to Ash!" the referee proclaims (Applause should be heard right now).
"Ash did it!" Max says.
Charizard then lets out a big roar in victory feeling proud of itself.
Leaf then recalls the fainted Blasty and gives Ash an angry and irritated look "Just a sec" Leaf says and goes somewhere to get something.
Bianca then runs down from her seat to where Ash is and hugs him "You beat her! Did you see the look on her face?" Bianca asks finding much joy in Leaf's defeat and suddenly a sharp dark green Leaf shaped badge is thrown at Ash's head, which catches in his hand.
"There, it's the Miracle Badge, its yours now get out" Leaf says in a rude tone of voice and walks away obviously not happy at all with her first loss as a Gym leader and her broken record.
"Well someone is a sore loser" Bianca says out loud and Leaf turns around and stares at her but then loses interest and just walks off.
The group then goes back to the Pokemon Center and Nurse Joy see's Ash approach the counter "I told you I'm not treating your Pokemon" Nurse Joy says thinking Ash has been defeated by Leaf and Ash then pulls out the Miracle Badge and shows it to Nurse Joy who is surprised by that.
"I'll get to treating your Pokemon right away" Nurse Joy says and takes Ash's Poke balls to treat the Pokemon inside.
Soon after treating Ash's Pokemon Nurse Joy gives Bianca her own Pokedex to collect data about the Pokemon she might encounter and about six poke balls so that she can start capturing her own Pokemon "Thank you Nurse Jane…I mean Joy" Bianca says "Your welcome" Nurse Joy says and walks off.
"Now I'll be able to catch my own Pokemon this is so exciting!" Bianca says "I know trust me it will be a lot of fun!" Ash says.
With Ash's Fourth Kanto Region Gym Badge obtained our hero simply needs four more to compete in the Indigo Plataea and now Bianca will be able to capture her own Pokemon. What will happen next? Stay tuned and find out next time.
Outside of Commerce City two Butterfree fly together one is a normal colored one with a yellow scarf around (Guess who?) and the other one has an unusual color and it's not a Shiny Butterfree but rather a Pink Butterfree and unknown to them Hunter J is watching them from inside her cloaked airship.
"Sir we've spotted two Butterfree in the air" one of henchmen says "And why are you telling me this?" J asks, "Well…one of them isn't the color of a normal Butterfree" the henchman says "What? A shiny Butterfree?" J asks "No…not a shiny one…a pink one" the henchman says showing J the live feed of the pink and normal colored Butterfree flying together and J smiles at this.
"I'm sure someone will pay a lot for a Butterfree of that color" J says planning to make the Pink Butterfree her next target.
To be continued…
Okay we just wrapped up Chapter 36 of the story and I've finally updated after 40 days of radio silence.
Also if reviewer ashds is reading this, I'm using the idea you gave me several months ago in the next chapter.
Also for the following reviewers who guessed Charizard would appear:

You were right, good for you.
Here is a story by the way I plan to make in the near future.
A sequel to my Spirited Away-Pokemon crossover, which I made last December, which will be featuring Ash and the gang.
Also recently I've made a Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind crossover so if you want to read and review it (Please) go on to my profile and look it up.
Also I'm having a poll on my profile on which out of the starter Pokemon from Generations I & II should be Bianca's starter Pokemon so if you want to vote on it go on to my profile and do so.
I'll update as soon as I can (Until I update I will not shave and I'm already pretty fuzzy). Gotta catch 'em all!
