…
Like the all previous days, it was another day for Ash for Grand trial, another day for Ash to win another Plate and get one more step closer to the championship of the region.
The grand trial stadium of Poni Island was situated at Battle tree area. The island doesn't contain much of a population, still the stadium got crowded as hour of grand trial approached closer.
Serena was patiently waiting at the VIP box for the arrival of Ash. Like the previous stadium, the front window of VIP Box had a slim glass with it; Serena quietly had placed her hands over the glass and rested her forehead on it.
Today, he will win, wont he? Serena thought. Ash has made this far, and today, he will win this too.
Serena had trust, she had faith.
…
Suddenly, The stadium announcer began the announcement.
"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, ONCE AGAIN, IT'S YOUR FAVORITE HARRY DALLAS… FROM ALOLAN POKÉMON LEAGUE, OR MORE SPECIFICALLY... FROM YOUR FIRST ALOLAN SHOWCASE COMPETITION AS NARRATOR! … TODAY I AM HERE ONLY AS NARRATOR OF ALOLAN GRAND TRAIL ….. PLEASE WELCOME, THE THIRD GRAND ELITE FOUR TRIAL OF ALOLAN HISTORY, INFACT THIS IS A HISTORY!" Announcer Harry Dallas Exclaimed.
The crowd roared out in response.
"IN THIS GRAND TRIAL, THE ALOLAN LEAGUE WINNER ASH KETCHUM WILL CHALLENGE KAHUNA KAHILI OF PONI ISLAND IN 1-ON-1 BATTLE … JUST LIKE THAT, I SAID BEFORE, THE CHALLENGER WILL TRY TO DEFEAT KAHUNA IN THIS 1-ON-1 BATTLE, IF HE WINS, HE WILL ACHIEVE THE PURPLE PLATE FROM KAHUNA KAHILI AND GO ONE STEP CLOSER TO BECOMING CHAMPION OF ALOLA REGION, IF HE FAILS, HIS JOURNEY STOPS HERE AND HE HAS TO GIVE UP THE OTHER PLATES IN HIS POSSESSION AS TROPHY AND WIN PRIZE OF FIRST ELITE FOUR TRIAL, BUT IN THAT CASE, THE CHALLENGER WILL ONLY KEEP THE PRICE MONEY FOR WINNING THE LEAGUE…. ARE WE CLEAR…?"
As expected, the crowd roared once again.
"SHALL WE?"
…
Unlike the other days, Ash looked quite calm today, some… some sort of happy; the reason was pretty simple, Serena kissed him on his cheek in their last incident, her lips touched his cheek! A sweet memory that shall keep him happy for some time.
Her lips felt just as soft as before, Ash could easily remember the day when they first kissed.
That felt heavenly!
Speaking of Serena, there she was… standing at the VIP box, her forehead was relying on the glass window.
Smiling, he turned to his opponent today, Kahuna Kahili was the famous golfer of the region, she had popularity of her own. But there was one thing made her different from all other Kahunas.
She was the mysterious one, unlike the other Kahuna, she wasn't seen much, she didn't even talk much, she spend most of her time in golfing and in the wild ruins of Poni island where she stayed.
But today when she faced Ash, she just spoke out,
"You are going to lose Ash Ketchum."
"Let's see that" Ash replied smirking.
…
The referee raised his flags announcing "The Kahuna and the challenger have already selected their first Pokémon before entering the field and cannot change until one of the Pokémon is unable to battle. The winner will be determined when one side's Pokémon are no longer able to battle. YES!"
Both trainers nodded their heads in agreement.
Smiling a little, Kahuna Kahili threw her poke ball.
"Let's see if you can face that."
When the Pokémon emerged at the field, the crowd turned silent, it was obvious, standing in front of them was guardian deity of Poni Island, Tapu Fini.
"IT IS TAPU FINI! THE GUARDIAN DEITY OF PONI ISLAND!... KAHUNA KAHILI CHOOSES TAPU FINI FOR THE BATTLE!" Harry exclaimed.
There wasn't much rumble around the people; they knew it was going to happen, another grand trial, another guardian deity.
Ash expected the same, eyeing the guardian deity for some moments Ash finally turned to Pikachu at his shoulder.
"Buddy… how about you take a break today."
"Piika?" Pikachu replied in a surprised tone.
"I know I planned to make you partner today, but I think I have to change the plan."
"PIKAPIIII – PIKACCHUUU …" Pikachu angrily protested, his cheeks sparkled.
"Please buddy, try to understand… how about I make you my partner at the final battle."
"Pikka?"
"I promise buddy."
Eyeing the guardian deity one last time, Ash threw his poke ball.
"Alright buddy, I think I am gonna need you again."
"IT'S NAGANADEL! THE CHALLENGER ASH KETCHUM CHOSES HIS ULTRA BEAST POKEMON ONCE AGAIN!"
The whole stadium roared out, Serena slowly caught her ribbon.
"AYA-YA-YAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
…
''Alright then, let's not waste another second! Tapu Fini, start with Misty Terrain.!'
Kahuna Kahili's call was heeded out first; the Water/Fairy Legendary Pokémon creates a dome of pink energy that surrounds it and its opponent, more specifically, the whole battle field.
''Do you actually think it's gonna slow our pace.'' Ash scoffed inwardly.
''Obviously not… Tapu Fini… Moon Blast!'' Kahuna Kahili threw her arm forward, pointing towards the opponent, and Tapu Fini quickly pursued.
The Pokémon cried, Tapu guardian Pokémon started to gather its energy, which supposedly comes from the moon. Suddenly it formed an orb of blue energy in front of its hands, and fired it directly to the Naganadel.
''Dodge, Naganadel!'' Ash's face remained impassive as always.
The ultra beast quickly dodged as a huge Moon blast quickly went under it, causing a blast on the field, the crowd rumbled out.
"WOW. THE BATTLE ALREADY HAS TAKEN SERIOUS SHAPE."
''Tapu Fini, use Hydro pump!'' The Kahuna roared out.
Tapu Fini released a mighty powerful stream of water in front of its mouth at the Naganadel. The ultra beast dodged it too, and thus it made the first mistake, as soon as the ultra beast dodged the attack, the guardian deity charged it with its horn.
Naganadel yelped in pain and squirming, as Tapu Fini flew past at it.
Ash clenched his teethes.
''So that Hydro pump was just a diversion, huh?
''It was! Are you already spaced out boy! Aren't you gonna show me what you and Naganadel are capable of?'' Kahili teased, clearly amused at Ash's grim expressions.
Clearly being underestimated, Ash just etched a smirk on his lips, and folded his arms against his chest. If he wanted to, he would have ended this in one go. But that isn't the reason he's just touring throughout Kanto right now.
''Naganadel, you hear that? Use Thunderbolt!''
"AYA-YA-YAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
Naganadel wasn't those who would take any insult seriously. It had more of a jocular nature. It released a powerful bolt of yellow electricity from its body at the guardian deity.
Kahili smiled. Finally she got somewhere with Ash. She adjusted the visor of his cap, and raised a hand, the trench coat, fluttering to accommodate the movement, "Hydro pump!''
Tapu Fini responded in kind by countering with its own powerful move. A powerful stream of water from its mouth at the Naganadel. With a cry, it tossed the forward to greet the thunderbolt. Both attacks were forged with resistance.
Suddenly the scorching electricity got quickly digested and went through the Water Pulse, unabated in its pursuit of Tapu Fini. Before Kahili could sense anything, it directly charged the deity.
Tapu Fini cried out in pain, crushed on the ground.
"Tapu Fini, get up."
The guardian Pokémon did.
"Water pulse!"
The guardian deity released a huge blue ball of energy in front of its mouth at the Naganadel.
Of course the ultra beast dodged it, but for its surprise, the blue ball was following it!
"Fascinating, isn't it?" Kahili remarked.
"Naganadel, keep dodging!"
But it couldn't, eventually it got hit by the powerful Water Pulse. Crushing the ultra beast on the ground.
The Referee let out a terrified gasp, watching Naganadel screech in pain as blinding electricity ran coursed its body, highlighted with golden flashes of light. That looked pretty painful…
''It's was painful, but of course, I won't expect any less from a Legendary.'' Ash remarked, both amazed and shocked at Tapu Fini's attack.
''This battle rages on and on with the second but from this point it's gonna get crucial. Tapu Fini, Moon Blast!'' Kahili shouted to the heavens.
The Ultra beast needed to be neutralized, otherwise this match just might be more risky than Kahili had intended. A low, rumbling cry built in the Legendary's throat, most of its raw power channeling into a flickering orb that looked very much like a miniature sun. The guttural growl turned to an ear-splitting shriek, and the attack was fired in the form of a terribly powerful Orb. Even Tapu Fini itself couldn't help but recoil.
''Spinning Dodge!''
Acting quickly, Naganadel twisted promptly to the side, reluctantly picking up on Ash's spin maneuver to barrel just out of Moon Blast's range. Even as he could feel the terrible heat radiating off the move, he vaulted around his pursuer to take off towards its source. With the behemoth circling up towards Tapu Fini, the vigor for a fight was ignited in both Pokémon's eyes.
''Great job!'' Ash praised, smacking both hands together. ''Now, use X-Scissor!''
Naganadel's stinger started to surround in a green aura, and before the island legendary should realize anything, it was time to exploit the speed they'd built up. Naganadel rushed forward on Ash's orders, to bury its long, hooking claw in Tapu Fini's belly. The ice type seized up, body fighting the toxins rushing over it.
''All this power!'' Kahili marveled, thoroughly impressed. ''We can't let them get onto us! Ice Beam!''
Tapu Fini let out a loud cry in response, charging another chilling sphere of energy in front of its beak before firing it towards Naganadel.
"Thunderbolt!'' Ash ordered, cool and unperturbed.
Naganadel fired another bolt of electricity from its stinger that collided with the chilly frost, forming a crackling collision that ended in a loud explosion and another smog enveloped the field. The match was growing tense and frustrating. Ash was too good for Kahili to just beat, but Kahili was also too good for Ash to fully overwhelm.
''Now's your chance, Tapu Fini! Water pulse!'' Kahili called out once more, and his orders were followed.
Again, the guardian deity released a blue ball of energy in front of its face at the Naganadel.
''Did you seriously think we were gonna fall for that again?'' Ash quipped, one eye open whilst mocking the Frontier Brain.
"Naganadel, use sludge Bomb"
While running away from pulse orb, Naganadel released multiple brown globs of sludge from its stinger at the opponent.
Of course the guardian deity dodged every single one it, by driving upwards, and here was the surprise for it, as soon as it went upwards, it discovered Naganadel, the ultra beast quickly went pass it, and before the guardian could realize anything, it got hit by its own water pulse, got crushed on the ground.
"HOLY ARCEUS! THE FIGHT HAS TAKEN A SERIOUS SHAPE!"
Silent mutter went across the stadium; Serena grabbed her ribbon more tightly.
The frustration clearly visible at Kahili's face, she balled her fists before commanding the next move. ''I guess we have to fight you with what hurts. Never make the mistake of underestimating a Legendary. Water Pulse again!''
A smirk spread across Ash's face, muscular arms crossed over his chest. ''Guess, a crushing defeat is the only solution. Thunderbolt on the Water Pulse and slap it back with your wing!''
The Legendary Pokémon again released a blue ball of energy in front of its face at the Naganadel.
"Tackle with thunder bolt …!" Ash replied.
As the latter, feeling every bit as desperate, the ultra beast unleashed other bolt of electricity towards the intended target. Electric charges ran through the pulsated orb of water upon contact, lighting the sphere with a golden terrifying blast of electricity. In a swoosh, Naganadel batted the sphere of bundled shocking power swinging it right at Tapu Fini. Kahili and the whole stadium had to watch on in horror as Tapu Fini was roasted, unable to move. Its cry of pain could hardly be heard.
''INCREDIBLE! I HAVE NEVER SEEN TAPU FINI IN SUCH CONDITION BEFORE.'' Harry muttered, his eyes set on the Pokémon that was pummeling Tapu Fini with hardly any effort.
''Now to give you a taste of your own medicine, Kahili.'' Ash smirked. ''Naganadel, shoot sludge Bomb at Tapu Fini's legs and wings!''
With a glee, Naganadel pointed its most powerful feature, its sturdy stinger and fired a barrage of adhesive poisonous projectiles. Each of them rained into Tapu Fini's talons and wings, proscribing any sort of movement. Moreover, due to the wings being soaked in the tacky liquid, Tapu Fini couldn't even take flight anymore and had its position stuck on the field. On top of it, the purple sparkles danced around its body every 2 minutes.
''The poison's a real pain, isn't it? Naganadel can store up to hundreds of liters of deadly poison in their bodies. Some Pokémon, huh? '' Ash grinned along, satisfied with the success of his plan.
''The kinda Pokémon I would like to study bout. But only after we take it out. There's always a backup plan for situations like these. Tapu Fini, use Rain Dance!''
Despite being in pain, Tapu Fini let out a melodious tune. The weather was already inclement, that now the winds began to kick up harshly. A small drop fell on Naganadel as it spun merrily too much to care about the battle. The sprinkles turned into a light rain shower, and the downpour began to beat against Tapu Fini's body, washing away all the toxic goo.
''Idiot~''
''Not good,'' Ash mumbled.
''Have you heard the phrase 'Haste makes waste'?''
''What do you mean?'' Kahili blinked, obviously slow to catch what Ash's plans were for Tapu Fini.
''Let me show you in the easiest way possible. Naganadel, Thunderbolt!''
Golden flashes of electricity ignited the air between the two Pokémon, swallowing Tapu Fini in a blinding tempest.
"CUUU!"
A shriek was just barely heard over the distinct boom of electricity, a charred fiery spirit left in its wake. Weary and on the verge of fainting, the flying type fluttered to the place it was initially challenged, exhausted. Landing heavily on its belly, its body landed before Kahili with a heavy thud drooped. The Legendary had been bested by the Ultra Beast.
…..
Everybody around the stadium was stunned with drop dead silence.
When the dust finally cleared, the Guardian Deity of Poni Island was finally found on the ground, unconscious.
The Referee announced whistling, "Tapu fini is unable to battle, with that our challenger Ash Ketchum wins the third elite four trials and wins purple mega plate!"
"THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE" harry exclaimed. "WITH THIS FIERCE BATTLE, OUR CHALLENGER ASH KETCHUM FINALLY MANAGES TO DEFEAT THE LEGENDARY GUARDIAN POKÉMON! AND WINS PURPLE MEGA PLATE!"
The whole crowd turned crazily roaring. Ash finally gave a smile of satisfaction as his ultra-beast buddy approached him; ash playfully hatched its head. Once again, it didn't fail him.
"I always had a faith on you buddy, I knew you would win."
"AYA-YA-YAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
Like the previous battle, the flattered ultra-beast literally jumped on Ash and started to nuzzle his chick.
"Okay, okay buddy, you did it, we did it buddy!" Ash said out of laughing.
From the VIP guest box, Serena watched that with a smile, Ash won, everything went fine till this moment.
Suddenly, something went wrong.
Out of nowhere, Amelia ran to Ash on the field, and before he could realize anything, the girl placed a kiss on his lips, stunning Ash and the whole stadium.
"Congratulations Ash … I…I LOVE YOU!"
She declared.
