"Pokémon Black and White: The True Legend"

Chapter 36 – The Battles of Friendship:

This is a very long chapter, but I hope you all enjoy the battles I wrote. ^_^

Black and the others were walking towards the Gym, led by Drayden. On the back of the line, were Cheren and Iris, still blushing a bit from the event they've suffered. Bianca was still wondering what Cheren was thinking about. She pulled him away from the line and decided to ask him.

"I still can't believe I answered that..." Cheren was a bit "depressed", surrounded by an "emo" aura.

"Don't blame yourself. It was shocking after all." White was trying to make Cheren get out of his depression.

Bianca seemed "angry" for some reason. "Oi, Bianca, why are you mad?" Black asked, not understanding on why Bianca would be furious at all.

"His answer..." She whispered to herself.

"What was I supposed to say?!" Cheren asked, almost shouting, like if he was asking to the world rather than anyone else.

"Cheren, you had to options and you said nice and you said "yes". Why are you torturing yourself?" White was starting to worry about him.

"She asked me if I'd marry her if we were single in 13 years, and I answered yes! How do you expect me to feel?!"

"But why did you say yes anyway?" Bianca asked, disguising her anger.

"It's not exactly his fault." Black defended Cheren. "He isn't exactly the best person to answer "no". For example: Cheren, could you give me 500¥?"

"Sure." Cheren gave Black a couple of coins, and Black grinned with a silly smile. Cheren then made a double-take. "Hey! Give me that!"

"Nope!"

Black ran, escaping with the money, while Cheren chased him, trying to get his money back.

White decided to go talk to Bianca."Why the anger?"

"My business, White." Bianca replied. "I need to steam off a bit."

"What do you mean?"

"Hey, Black!" Bianca called, making the two boys stop running. "I challenge you to a battle!"

"Eh?" Black didn't understand, mostly because Bianca was never the fighting kind of person.

White and Cheren sat on some rocks that even if hard, were pretty comfortable. Black and Bianca were standing across each other through a green field. Cheren spoke as the referee.

"The battle between Black and Bianca is about to begin. Send in your Pokemons!"

"Go, Braviary!" Black threw his Poké Ball, letting out his Braviary to the field.

"Go, Cinccino!" Bianca sent in her Pokémon to the field as well.

"Begin!" White yelled out, wanting the battle to begin. Cheren sweatdropped, since his line was stolen.

"Braviary, Aerial Ace!" Black commanded, starting the battle.

"Braviary!" Braviary roared, flying up into the sky. Then, he made a loop and flew at a high speed, his body looking like a blur.

"Cinccino, Double Team!" Bianca replied, and her Cinccino flashed white for a second. Suddenly, four copies of Cinccino appeared around Cinccino in a squared pattern. Braviary passed through the middle of the square, passing through Cinccino, who was a copy apparently.

"Don't give up yet! Continue using Aerial Ace!"

Braviary made a loop and turned back to Ciccinos' direction. His wings passed through all copies, but didn't hit the real Cinccino. In the end, Cinccino had climbed onto Braviary's back without anyone notice.

"Thunderbolt, go!"

"Cin!" Cinccino yelled strongly, and her body became surrounded by yellow electricity, releasing multiple thunderbolts from her body, electrocuting Braviary strongly.

"Braviary, no!" Black shouted worriedly, as Braviary fell towards the ground. Cinccino then jumped into the air again, awaiting for Bianca's command.

"Cinccino, Sutāshawā, Moderu: Ishi!" (Star Shower, Model: Stone) Bianca directed, as the white fur on Cinccino's head began to glow bright orange and the entire tail glowed gold. She then waved both her fur and tail, firing multiple gold-colored stars from her tail and two silver, spinning energy waves from the fur at Braviary. The hits landed on Braviary, heavily damaging him.

"Braviary, are you ok?"

Braviary suddenly opened his eyes. "Bra-vi-ARY!" he roared, spreading his wings and flying up again, ready to continue battle.

"Alright! Brave Bird, now!"

"Braviary!" he flew straight into the air and his body became surrounded in red fire. He then flew straight at Cinccino and the fire around his body turned into a light blue aura.

"Cinccino, Rock Blast!" Bianca requested, as the white fur on Cinccino's head began to glow bright orange. She then fired two silver, spinning energy waves from it at Braviary, extinguishing the aura surrounding Braviary's, but his recklessness made him continue flying towards her. "Tail Slap, let's go!"

"Cin!" Cinccino dashed towards Braviary, with her tail glowing white, and she slapped him continuously, knocking him out.

"Braviary, come back…" Black said, withdrawing Braviary. "Go, Emboar!"

"Embo!"

"Emboar, Flamethrower!"

"Cinccino, Swift!"

Emboar breathed out a stream of fire from his nostrils, as Cinccino's tail began glowing golden and released multiple golden-stars by waving. The streams collided, extinguishing one another.

"Emboar, Hammer Arm!"

"Cinccino, Iron Tail!"

Emboar raised his gold glowing arm and slammed it against Cinccino's iron shinning tail. The attack was superior in many ways, giving Emboar the victory by easily slamming Cinccino against the ground, making her faint.

Bianca withdrew her and sent in another Pokémon. "Go, Unfezant!"

"Unfezant!" the male unfezant chirped flapping his wings in midair.

"Emboar, return." Black knew Unfezant had an advantage against Emboar. "Go, Escavalier!"

"Esca!"

"Unfezant, Heat Wave!"

"What?!"

"Esca?!"

"Unfezant!" Unfezant shouted, as his wings became orange glowing. Then, he flapped them continuously, releasing orange strong hot winds at Escavalier, making him guard himself by putting his arms in front of his body.

"Escavalier, return!" Black said, withdrawing Escavalier back to his Poké Ball. "Unfezant has Heat Wave, which won't make things easier for me… Luckily, I have you! Gothitelle, to the field!"

"Gothi!" Gothitelle landed in the middle of the battle field.

"Unfezant, Aerial Ace!"

"Un!" Unfezant flew up and his body flashed white. Then, he made a loop and flew down at high speed towards Gothitelle, seeming like a blur.

"Gothitelle, Denki no Rinku V2!" Black showed that the Electric Link Technique had evolved from its basic stage to a more powerful version. Gothitelle created a light green orb of energy between her hands and then spread her arms, making the orb divide into multiple smaller orbs. She then used Thunderbolt, creating an electric link between them. Then, the orbs flew up and started spinning around each other with the electric bolt between them, connecting them. The orbs flew towards Unfezant.

"Unfezant, Kuikkukattā V2!" Bianca yelled out, and Unfezant became surrounded in a white outline. Suddenly, he began flapping his wings over and over again at a high speed, releasing multiple light blue 'X' shaped energy waves.

The Electric Link technique was destroyed by Unfezant's Quick Cutter easily.

"Unfezant, Razor Wind!"

"Thunderbolt, go!"

Unfezant's wings became surrounded in a stream of wind and he spread them, making him glide up. Then, his wings began to glow white and he flapped them, sending two strong crescent-shaped wave scythes towards Gothitelle. Gothitelle shrugged and suddenly spread her arms and decompressed her body, making multiple bolts of electricity spurt out from her body. The attacks collided against one another and destroyed each other.

"Gothitelle, Flatter!"

"Gothi!" Gothitelle exclaimed, as she waved her arms creating red waves that confused Unfezant in contact.

"Un? Un?" he began to look around, almost like if he was blind.

"Tailwind!"

"Unfezant!" Unfezant began flying in circles, creating a small tornado which he entered. He then spread his wings from inside it, extinguishing it. Suddenly, an air current emerged, coming against Black.

"Unfezant, return!" Bianca said, taking out her poke Ball and withdrawing Unfezant into it.

"What? Why now?"

"Because I have all the pieces in place now. Go, Chandelure!" Bianca said, sending in her ghost Pokémon.

"Chande!"

"Oh no…" Black had forgotten about Chandelure. And his whole team had disadvantage against her.

"Chandelure, Shadow Ball!"

"Gothitelle, Shadow Ball!"

Gothitelle put her hands together in front of her body and a black and dark purple orb of energy formed in between them. Chandelure raised her arms above her head and forms a black and purple ball of energy above it. She then lowered it until the ball was in front of her face. Then, both Pokémons fired the orb against one another, exploding in collision to one another.

"Chandellure, Shadoufaia!" Bianca requested, apparently her new technique named Shadow Fire. Chandelure formed another shadow Ball and when it was lowered, she pointed her front arms towards it. She then released two streams of purple fire from her arms into the ball, and fired it, the Shadow Ball covered in purplish fire shaped like a meteorite, towards Gothitelle. Due to the speed and power, Gothitelle couldn't dodge or deflect it via Psychic. Black knew that the only way was to destroy it with a more powerful attack.

"Daburushokku! And use Confusion for a movement boost! Daburushokku Kai!" Black commanded, upgrading his Double Shock technique. Gothitelle released multiple yellow lightning bolts from her body. Three thick masses of light blue, blue and purple energy formed in front of her body. The thunderbolts hit the spheres and the spheres were fired towards Chandelure's attack. Gothitelle's eyes began to glow bright blue, and the masses of light started spinning on their own horizontal axis. The attacks clashed against one another, and a thick cloud of smoke appeared between them. Gothitelle and Black first thought that they were safe, but suddenly, the meteorite-like attack came out of the smoke cloud and landed right on Gothitelle, pushing her back, unconscious, covered in burn marks. "Gothitelle!"

"Gothi…"

"It seems that I've won this round, Black."

"Gothitelle, return. Go, Emboar!" Black sent in Emboar once again. "Brick Break on the floor and the Fling!"

"Emboar!" Emboar raised his white glowing arm and chopped the ground, making multiple rocks spurt out from it. Emboar picked all the rocks up and flung them at Chandelure.

"Heruzubyū G2!" Chandelure's flames expanded and manifested in wavy motions, ending up surrounding Chandelure completely. The grand orb of fire which contained Chandelure inside moved towards Emboar, destroying the rocks he had flung, and swallowing him. Emboaar had closed his eyes in fear, but when he opened them again, he saw a strange expression of Chandelure with a creepy smile and a maniacal laugh. Suddenly, flames surrounded Emboar again and he was sent out of the orb of fire, unconscious and shivering like if he was having a nightmare. He then fainted quickly after the event.

"Emboar, return. Go, Escavalier!"

"Esca!"

"You sent in Escavalier? Are you sure you're not giving me an advantage Black?"

"Don't be so cocky, Bianca, I have a plan up my sleeve."

"Eh?" Bianca asked in surprised.

"Escavalier, Poison Jab!" Black commanded. Escavalier roared as his lances began to glow bright purple, and dashed towards Chandelure, jabbing her repeatedly.

"Chandelure, Flamethrower!"

"Dodge!"

Escavalier managed to jump out of the stream of fire Chandelure had released from one of her arms.

"Continue with Poison Jab! Poison Jab, Poison Jab, Poison Jab Poison Jab, Poison Jab, Poison Jab, Poison Jab, Poison Jab, Poison Jab!" Black repeated, over and over again. Escavalier did as requested and continued jabbing his lances against Chandelure, dodging the attacks she was launching.

"Chandellure, Shadoufaia with Will-o-Wisp! Chandellure, Shadoufaia Kai!" Bianca was showing that she was a powerful trainer. Chandelure started spinning her body around and a light blue fireball formed in front of her body where she was facing before she started to spin. As she spun, the fireball grew bigger. Then, she used another Shadow Ball. The two orbs collided against one another and the fired the Shadow Ball covered in light blue and violet fire towards Escavalier.

"Escavalier, don't give up! Swords Dance and Poison Jab!"

"ESCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Escavalier roared. His lances began to glow bright blue and they expanded. Then, a purple glow replaced the blue glow and he dashed towards Chandelure. He jabbed on of the spears into the attack, making it explode and create a thick cloud of smoke. Bianca and Chandelure thought they had won, but Escavalier exited the cloud, with multiple burn marks around his body. He then jabbed Chandelure once more, making purple sparks appear around her body.

"Chandelure, Flame Burst!" Chandelure released a stream of fire from the tip of her head into the air. The blue flames then formed a ball of fire, which then burst, sending multiple streaks of fire at Escavalier, knocking him out as easily as it was stealing candy from a baby.

"Escavalier, return. You made your job. I'm counting on my last two options for this battle."

"2 against 5… Black doesn't seem to be even close to winning." Cheren admitted.

"But…" White's voice called his attention. "I believe Black is going to win this. He always manages to get out of a situation like this."

"Go, Simisage!"

"Simi!"

"Chandelure, Heruzubyū G2!" Chandelure's flames expanded and manifested in wavy motions, ending up surrounding Chandelure completely.

"Simisage, Vine Whip to throw her around. It will hurt, but follow my plan, ok?"

"Simi!" Simisage's white fur on his shoulders began to glow green and two vines emerged from the tufts. The vines wrapped around Chandellure, and even though it hurt, Simisage used the vines to spin her around him and throw her away, up towards the sky. The flames disappeared and purple sparks surrounded Chandelure again.

"Simisage, Rock Slide!" Black commanded. Simisage's body began to glow white and multiple white rings of energy appeared above and around him. Then, several large grey boulders came out of the ripples of energy and fell down over Chandelure, heavily damaging her. "Final attack! Taiyōbakudan!" with the meaning of Solar Bomb, Simisage prepared his final strike.

"Simiii…!" Simisage held up his arms, and a green light appeared between them. Then, the light turned into a golden-green seed. Simisage pointed his "hair" towards the sun and began absorbing sunlight, making it glow golden, and a gold orb formed in front of his mouth. Then, he hurled the orb and fired a golden beam from the gold orb in front of his mouth. The beam entered into the projectile, and it began to glow like sunlight. The projectile hit Chandelure, exploding, and releasing a strong solar flare in an explosion-like fashion, making Chandelure fall to the ground, unconscious.

"Return, Chandelure."

"Great job, Simisage!" Black cheered, happy for the victory. "But this isn't over yet…"

"Go, Unfezant!"

"Unfezant!" Unfezant roared, recovered from the confusion he was suffering before.

"Simisgae, Rock Slide!"

"Heat Wave, go!"

"Simi!" Simisage spoke, but before he could make his move, Unfezant's wings became orange glowing. Then, he flapped them continuously, releasing orange strong hot winds at Simisage, making him jump back, but not that damaged.

"Simisage, return for a while. Go, Volcarona!"

"Vol!" Volcarona got out of her Poké Ball, showing her red wings.

"Unfezant, Aerial Ace!" Bianca commanded, as Unfezant dove towards Volcarona at a high speed, aiming for an attack.

"Volcarona, Furenjī-Bi G2!" Volcarona's eyes flashed red and fire whips spurted out of her wings and back. She became enveloped by the flames forming an orb with the shade of two triangular malicious red eyes. She flew towards Unfezant and whipped him multiple times with the various fire whips, making him faint.

"Come back, Unfezant… Let's go, Ferrothorn!" Bianca sent in her next Pokémon.

"Ferro!"

"Volcarona, return. Go, Simisage!" Black swapped Pokémons for advantage.

"Pin Missile!"

"Ferro!" Ferrothorn's arms glowed white and she fired multiple glowing white streams with arrowheads from the arms towards Simisage.

"Rock Slide!"

"Simi!" Simisage's body began to glow white and multiple white rings of energy appeared above and around him. Then, several large grey boulders came out of the ripples of energy and clashed against the Pin Missile projectiles, destroying one another.

"Ferrothorn, Gyro Ball and Pin Missile! Anbureikaburuōbitaru!" Bianca named the brand new Technique "Unbreakable Orbital". Ferrothorn jumped and began spinning, extending her arms, glowing light blue. She began to float and her arms began to release multiple white streams with arrowheads. The streams began to circle around Ferrothorn, and both Ferrothorn and the streams flew towards Simisage.

"Simisage, use Focus Blast!" Black knew that it wasn't a good idea to use a direct move, due to Ferrothorn's Iron Barbs ability. Simisage put his hands together and an orange orb formed in between them. He then hurled it against Ferrothorn, destroying the missiles and sending her against the ground again. "Low Kick!"

"Simi!" Simisage duck and kicked underneath Ferrothorn, hitting her arms, and making her fall, but Simisage became injured because of the Iron Barbs.

"Kinzoku-sei no Muchi G2!" Bianca commanded. Ferrothorn formed a white energy orb in front of her and swung her vines through the sphere, making them turn into iron. Then, they began glowing lustrous-green.

"Brick Break, let's go, full power!"

"Simi!"

"Ferro!"

Simisage raised his arm and it flashed white. He chopped Ferrothorn's head with his hand, but got whipped from the Metallic Whip G2. Both were pushed back and fainted.

"Go, Volcarona!"

"Let's go, Serperior!"

Black only had Volcarona up his sleeve, and Bianca was down to her last two Pokémons.

"Serperior, Taiyō Torunēdo!" Bianca apparently had created a new Technique for her Serperior, named Solar Tornado. Serperior spun around, waving his tail, and a large tornado of wind with a circles of light green energy spinning around it appeared at the tip of Serperior's tail. Serperior hurled the tornado towards Volcarona and then fired a bright gold beam of energy from his mouth, which mixed into the tornado, making it glow golden.

"Volcarona, Fiery Dance, you can do it!" Black yelled, giving his Pokémon some support.

"Vol!" she shouted, as her body began to take the color of a dark shade of red. Then, she spun around while releasing multiple swirling streams of fire from her mouth. The streams spun furiously, easily destroying the tornado.

"Volcarona, Furenjī-Bi G2!" Volcarona's eyes flashed red and fire whips spurted out of her wings and back. She became enveloped by the flames forming an orb with the shade of two triangular malicious red eyes.

"Serperior, Daburubaria!" Thinking the Technique Double Barrier would be a good option, it wasn't strong enough. Serperior roared and a pink circular dome appeared around him (Reflect) and then, a yellow glass box appeared around him as well (Light Screen).

Volcarona flew towards Serperior and the whips of fire hit the barriers furiously, but ended up destroying them, and they hit Serperior as well, which made him automatically faint.

"Return. I'm counting on you! Let's go, Musharna, you can do it!" Bianca sent in her signature Pokémon. Musharna floated up, eyes closed, releasing the Dream Mist.

"Volcarona, Bug Buzz!"

"Psybeam!"

Volcarona called out loudly, which released red soundwaves from her body at Musharna. Musharna fired a multicolored zig-zagging beam of energy from the spot on her nose, which cancelled out the soundwaves.

"Faia Mojiretsu V2!" Black tried his Fire String Technique. Volcarona released a white stream of sticky string from her mouth at Musharna, which when it hit her, it wrapped itself around her body, stopping her from moving around. Then, Volcarona released a spiraling red-orange fire from her mouth around the string. The flames hit Musharna, and the string made the flames spread through her body, making her scream in pain.

"No, Musharna!" Bianca needed something to extinguish the flames. "Gyro Ball!"

"Muuuu!" Musharna curled up and started spinning like a wheel. The flames extinguished when the ring of blue energy appeared around her body in a wheel fashion. She then flew towards Volcarona.

"Fiery Dance!" Volcarona's body became dark red and then she spun around, releasing multiple swirling streams of fire from her mouth.

Musharna easily beat the whips with Gyro Ball, and slammed her body against Volcarona, sending her against the groun.

"Now, Moonlight!" Bianca needed Musharna on her best, so she decided to heal her. Musharna looked up to the sky and opened her eyes. Even though it was the afternoon, the moon could be seen. Then, the spot on her nose began to glow white and multiple sparkles came off it, healing her wounds. "Psychic Star Fall, but add Hidden Power! Saikikkusutā Aki kai!"

"Musha!" Musharna opened her eyes again and glared at Volcarona. Multiple white rings of energy then appeared above Musharna's body high in the sky and large grey boulders came out of the ripples of energy. Musharna's eyes began to glow light blue, and the boulders started levitating in a circular pattern in midair. Then, silver sparkles formed in front of Musharna's mouth. The sparkles then expanded, forming into a silver orb of energy. The glow faded out of the orb, forming into a large gray boulder with a transparent silver glow. She fired the Rock Tomb boulder at Volcarona, trapping her against the ground by multiple rocks. Then, she fired a light green orb from her mouth, stunning Volcarona. She then hurled the Rock Slide boulders at Volcarona, burying her.

"Volcarona! Are you ok?!" Black asked, very worried about his Pokémon. Volcarona even had a double weakness to Rock-type. But then, the rocks around her started melting into lava, and she flew out of it, spreading her wings.

"Vol!"

"Impossible!" Bianca exclaimed, just as surprised as Musharna was.

"Show them what you're made of! Zen Headbutt!"

"Musharna, Zen Headbutt!"

Both Pokémons lowered their heads and purple energy began to form in front of their foreheads. They then raised their heads and the purple energy grew larger and formed into a ball of shining light blue energy for each. They then lowered their heads and flew head first into each other. They both backed off, but Musharna seemed to be shaking, or afraid.

"Now that she flinched, let's go Volcarona! Furenjī-Bi G3!" Volcarona's eyes flashed red and fire whips spurted out of her wings and back. She became enveloped by the flames forming an orb with the shade of two triangular malicious red eyes. She quickly flew towards Musharna and the fire whips whipped her multiple times, slamming her against the ground, making her faint. "We did it! We won, Volcarona!"

Bianca withdrew Musharna and approached Black and Volcarona, who seemed to be celebrating. "It was a great battle Black. I don't really like battling, but it was really fun."

"It was an amazing battle!" Black said enthusiastically, to the point of making Volcarona sweatdrop.

"Thanks… I guess." Bianca had to sweatdrop as well.

"Hey, White, let's battle." Cheren suggested.

"Uh?"

"I mean, let's not leave the fun just for Black and Bianca." Cheren answered, showing a little smile.

White didn't refuse the invitation. The four of them switched places. Black and Bianca sat on the rocks and Cheren and White prepared for their own battle.

"Ready? Please go first." Cheren asked, trying to show politeness.

"Why, thank you. Go, Reuniclus!" White threw the Poké Ball, which opened, sending in her Reuniclus.

"Reu-Reu!"

"Let's go! Bisharp!" Cheren sent in his own Pokémon to the field. Turns out his politeness was just a trick to have advantage. At least that's what both Black and Bianca thought it was, which actually made them sweatdrop.

"Reuniclus, Rōringu· Sandā V2!" White commanded, and Reuniclus curled up and began rolling at high speed. Then, yellow electricity surrounded his body and he floated towards Bisharp, leaving a trail of yellow electricity behind.

"Bisharp, Iron Defense!" Bisharp guarded his body with his arms, and flashed silver for a second. Reuniclus clashed against Bisharp, pushing him back a few meters. Reuniclus rolled back and started floating around, with a wide smile.

"Focus Blast, let's go!" White yelled, not wanting to let Bisharp rest for even a second. Reuniclus put his hands together and an orange orb formed between them. He pulled his hands up, along with the orb, and then flipped frontwards, sending the second orb after the second flip.

"Bisharp, take the hit!"

"Bi?!" Bisharp asked, not understanding his Trainer's command. White, Black and Bianca were as puzzled as he was. But nevertheless, he took the hit, becoming heavily damaged. "Bi...~~!"

"Are you ok?"

"Sharp!" Bisharp seemed a little bit furious.

"Never mind. Kinzoku Bakuhatsu!" Bisharp then understood the plan. Bisharp formed a ball of silver fire between his hands, and his blades began resonating, sending sound waves into the sphere of fire. "Moderu: Chitan!" (Exploding Metal, Model: Titanium)

"Bi!" Bisharp disappeared and reappeared right above Reuniclus, ready to slam the fire ball against his body.

White knew how to stop that fire ball. "Focus Punch!"

"Reu!" Reuniclus pulled back his right arm and clenched his fist, which became surrounded by a blue aura. He then punched Bisharp, but as soon as they made contact, Bisharp disappeared. Reuniclus was surprised. "REU?!"

"What the-?!"

"Double Team!" Cheren answered, as two Bisharps, each with a fireball between their hands, appeared, jumping towards Reuniclus.

"Hit the one on the right!" White had a 50/50 chance of getting it right. Reuniclus spun and changed direction, moving towards the Bisharp of the right. He punched him, but it turned out to be a copy. Then, the true Bisharp slammed the fireball against Reuniclus's body, sending him against the ground, unconscious.

"Reuniclus, return. Go, Mienshao!"

"Mien!" Mienshao screeched, entering the battle.

"Bisharp, Metal Sound!" Cheren commanded. The blades on Bisharp's arms began resonating, releasing strong sound waves from them, making Mienshao flinch.

"Mienshao, don't back off! Aura Sphere, let's go!" White yelled, not wanting to risk losing another Pokemon so fast.

"Shao!" Mienshao put his hands together, forming a blue-azure sphere between them. He then shot it at Bisharp. Bisharp wasn't able to escape and quickly fainted.

"Return. You did a great job with Metal Sound."

"Bisharp was a decoy for Mienshao?!" White asked surprised.

"You see, I know that Mienshao is your main physical powerhouse, meaning that he's a big threat. As so, I first thought of an obvious decoy, a Pokémon with double weakness to Fighting: Bisharp. I also knew that Reuniclus was one of your main Pokémons in terms of power. It was just a matter of luck of you sending him first, but even if not, as soon as he would've come out, I would have sent Bisharp to the field."

"So you…"

"I was three steps ahead."

"Three? What's the third?"

"Bouffalant, Zen Headbutt!" Cheren threw his Poké Ball, which opened, sending in his Pokémon. His head was glowing bright blue, and he slammed it against Mienshao's body, causing great damage.

"Mieeen!"

"Mienshao, no!"

"Bouffalant, Zen Headbutt!"

"Aura Sphere!"

Mienshao got back up and an azure orb formed between his hands. He then hurled it at Bouffalant, but Bouffalant reflect it, sending the Aura Sphere back to Mienshao, making him faint.

"No… Mienshao, return. Dam it… Let's go, Accelgor!" White sent in Accelgor, trying to get some sort of advantage. She thought speed would be a good option. "Acid Spary!"

"Accel! Accel! Accel!" Accelgor fired three globs of orange acid from her mouth (which is hidden, by the way), which hit Bouffalant, covering him. Bouffalant's body began to release some sort of steam, and Bouffalant seemed to be struggling in pain.

"Bouffa!"

"Bouffalant, Hone Masshā!" A new Technique named Bone Smasher was put into action. Boufallant dashed towards Accelgor, using Head Charge, and then his horns began to glow olive green and expanded, Megahorn.

"Accelgor, Struggle Bug!"

"Accel!" Accelgor's body briefly became surrounded in a red aura. The aura then faded. Accelgor then crouched her body together and a brighter red aura appeared around her. Accelgor then opened her arms and a huge dome of red energy burst out of her body, blocking Bouffalant's attack.

"Power Swap!" Accelgor closed her eyes and she became surrounded by a reddish-pink aura. Then, Bouffalant became surrounded by a similar aura, and two streams interconnected the two Pokémons. "Quick Attack!"

"Accel!" Accelgor dashed at very high speed, clashing against Bouffalant with great strength, making him flip back and fall onto the ground, near fainting.

"Bou…"

"Power Swap again!" Accelgor made the same move, putting things back to the way they should be. "Mega Drain!"

She released a green beam from her mouth (again, hidden), and began absorbing Bouffalant's energy, making him faint.

"Return, Bouffalant. You already did enough. Go, Gigalith!"

"Giga!" Gigalith spoke, ready for battle.

"Sandstorm!"

"Gigaaaa!" Gigalith jumped into the air, glowing several different colors and then stomped down onto the ground, causing sand to swirl out from under him in all directions.

"Accelgor, Quick Attack!" Accelgor dashed through the sandstorm, but she was slowed down. "What the-?!"

"Cheren used Sandstorm to slow down Accelgor, and take away her best attribute." Black informed Bianca. Bianca was amazed by how Cheren thought this through.

"Use Stealth Rock and Power Gem! Along with Sandstorm, this is my new Technique, Kōtaku Dengeki!" The name "Lustrous Blitzkrieg" made a chill run down White's spine. Gigalith's body became surrounded by white energy. The energy came off, which turned into multiple gray stones.

Accelgor jumped out of the tornado. Suddenly, multiple glowing rocks came out of Gigalith's red rocks. The tornado rose up to the air and then fell down onto Accelgor, making a massive hit onto her, making her faint.

"Accelgor, return… Go, Simipour!"

"Simi!"

"Gigalith, Explosion!"

"Simi?!"

"What?!"

Gigalith moved towards Simipour, who was too astonished to move, and began to glow white. A massive explosion spread through the place, and the two Pokémons fainted immediately.

"Return." They said in unison. White was down to only 2 Pokémons, while Cheren still had 3.

"Let's go, Mandibuzz!"

"Let's rock, Haxorus!"

"Mandi!"

"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAXXXOOOOOOOOOOORRRUUUUUUUUUUUS!" Haxorus started breaking all the rocks around, mainly with her tail and fists. Cheren withdrew her and threw the Poké Ball towards Bianca and Black. Bianca managed to catch the Poké Ball.

"Now that I think of, change of plans." He spoke, sweatdropping. They all did, even Mandibuzz. "Go, Samurott!"

"Samu!"

"Mandibuzz, Toxic!"

"Mandi!" Mandibuzz chirped, releasing a stream of a thick purple liquid, which hit Samurott. Samurott's body became surrounded by purple sparks.

"Samu…!"

"Samurott, Hydro Pump!"

"Mirror Move!"

Samurott fired a strong jet of water from her mouth towards Mandibuzz, but Mandibuzz spread her wings, and a black portal with a white outline appeared in front of herself, which released an equal water jet. They collided, cancelling each other out.

"Razor Shell!"

"Bone Rush!"

Samurott drew her seamitar and it began to glow blue, as Mandibuzz flew down towards Samurott, as she created a light green bone of energy, which she held with her claws. They then began "sword fighting" with their weapon options.

"Samurott, Swords Dance and Slash while still using Razor Shell! Shinkai Bureido!" Abyssal Blade, the Technique, went more or less like this: Samurott jumped back and the blue energy surrounding her weapon became bluish-purple, and she swung it, releasing a strong air cutting wave towards Mandibuzz, which slashed her body.

"Mandibuzz!"

"Give up White! Samurott, Use Razor Shell with Slash, and dash with Aerial Ace! Sairentosurasshu!" the name Silent Slash also made a chill run down her spine. Samurott disappeared and reappeared behind Mandibuzz, saving her seamitar. When she completely saved it, Mandibuzz fell onto the ground, completely unconscious.

"Mandibuzz, return. Go, Serperior!"

"Ser!"

"Ice Beam!"

"Doragonbureido G2!" White commanded. Serperior's tail leaf began glowing bright green and expanded in any way. Then, the rest of her tail began glowing bright blue and the leaf began glowing marine-blue, a mixture between the two colors. Serperior swung her tail and bounced the beam back, freezing Samurott.

"Crap!"

"Now, Leaf Storm!" Serperior waved her tail and a barrage of green leaves the same color as Serperior's body outlined in glowing light green appeared and fired at Samurott, making her faint immediately.

"Hmm… Must have been a critical hit. Go, Stoutland!" Cheren sent in his last and signature Pokémon.

"Stout!"

"Serperior, Doragonbureido G2!" White commanded. Serperior's tail leaf began glowing bright green and expanded in any way. Then, the rest of her tail began glowing bright blue and the leaf began glowing marine-blue, a mixture between the two colors.

"Stoutland, Gurandoerementaru Kiba!" Grand Elemental Fang, and that third name gave the third and final chill to White.

"Land!" Stoutland barked, as the inside of his moth became surrounded by fire, his fangs began to glow light blue, and yellow electric sparks emanated from it.

Serperior slammed her tail against Stoutland's mouth, which created a strong explosion. Stoutland rolled out of the smoke, and quickly stood up. Serperior quickly followed him and prepared to strike again.

"Wrap!" Serperior wrapped around Stoutland's body, stopping him from moving. "SolarBeam! Hissatsu Nōesukēpubīmu!" (Sure-Killing No-Escape Beam)

"Serperior!" Serperior pulled back her head and started absorbing sunlight. She then fired a golden beam right against Stoutland's body, creating a strong explosion. Serperior got out of the cloud of smoke, but Stoutland didn't. When the smoke cleared up, it was shown that Stoutland had fainted.

"We did it, Serperior!" White said, hugging the long grass snake. Cheren withdrew Stoutland and gave a handshake to White, as a sign of respect.

They decided to make a little break to eat. "I could've beaten you, White. If it wasn't for Haxorus…"

"But why doesn't she obey you?" Bianca asked, curious. Black and White had the same question in mind.

"Maybe she doesn't respect me as a Trainer." Cheren proposed.

Black then interjected. "But you have all the Gym Badges! Isn't that enough proof that you're a good Trainer?"

"That is the puzzling part. Maybe she is used to Iris. I mean, we never made a proper trade. She just gave me the Poké Ball." Cheren deduced, eating a little sandwich Bianca had made some time before. They enjoyed the little meal, just like their Pokémons enjoyed eating the Oran Berries.

"This was fun. We should continue making stuff like this." Black suggested, taking a bit bite of his peanut-butter sandwich.

"What? Battling each other?"

"Yeah. Why don't you and Bianca battle, then I battle Cheren, then Cheren and Bianca battle, and then we battle? It would be awesome!"

They sighed at Black's half-childish attitude, but smiled in return.

"Why not?" White asked out loud.

"But the matches will be three on three, ok?" Bianca requested, noticing that their Pokémons weren't totally healed yet.

But it was a start.

Bianca and White moved to the field, and then, something hit White's mind. "What if we make this a triple battle?"

"Ok! Let's go, Ferrothorn, Musharna, Chandelure!"

She sent in her three best Pokémons for the job. White had to reply with something smart.

"Mienshao, Reuniclus, Serperior!" Let's say more or less.

"Kinzoku-sei no Muchi G2! P.S.Y.R.O. Bōru V2! Heruzubyū G2!"

"Ōraejji G2! Rōringu· Sandā V2! Doragonbureido G2!"

This was a bit rushed, but i hope you enjoyed it. And who will win? Bianca or White? Don't miss the next chapter ;)
