As all the trainers made their way to the arena colosseum, filling in as many seats as possible. Even the citizens of Kalos who weren't participating in the tournament came to watch a match never expected among the crowd. Within only 5 minutes the first 10 rows were already filled. Ash walked in the middle of the stadium with a mic in hand after changing into a dark blue text with a red tie. "LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, TO START OFF TOMORROW TOURNAMENT WE WILL HAVE AND EXHIBITION MATCH WITH TWO MEMBERS OF THE BIG 10. ON THE RIGHT WE HAVE ONE OF OUR ON ELITE 4 MEMBER, THE BEAUTIFUL AND SMART PSYCHIC MAIDEN ANABEL!" on the right of Ash, Anabel walked out wearing a lavender strapless dress, with her hair in a knot hanging over her shoulder. She captured Ash's gaze with her appearance and blew him a kiss. The audience was cheering, mostly the male portion. "AND ON THE LEFT, WE HAVE THE STRONG AND GORGEOUS SINNOH CHAMPION CYNTHIA." Cynthia walked out on the field wearing a black dress with one strap over her shoulder, she looked towards Ash and gave hima wink for the compliment. " NOW THAT OUR CHALLENGERS ARE HERE, LETS GET ON TO THE BATTLE."
Ash left the stage and headed towards his friends to watch the battle. Anabel turned to Cynthia with a smirk. "You know i saw that gesture towards Ash,is it safe to assume you have a thing for him?"
Cynthia grinned at the explanation. "I might, he's a strong trainer, with a big heart. It would be hard not to fall for his charm." Cynthia answered, making said trainer blush.
"Well if you want i can set a date up for you and become one of my sister girls." Anabel offered.
Cynthia turned to Ash who locked eyes with her and him a flirty smile. "I would love that." she turned back towards Anabel and pulled out a pokeball. "But that doesn't mean I'll go easy on you."
Anabel gave her a challenging grin right back. "I wouldn't have it any other way." Anabel replied and they both sent out their pokemon. "Metagross, help me my Friend!"
"Garchomp, time to battle!" Anabel sent out her steel/psychic type and Cynthia sent out her ground/ground dragon. What was noticeable about their pokemon opponent was that the both had a mega stone on them,
The traitors -
The former friends were standing with the rest of the trainers getting ready to witness the battle. Misty had a confused look on her. "What's the big 10"
Max decided to pull out his poke watch. "It says here that all the leagues decided to make a group of trainers who surpass every field of battle and pokemon performances. Strengths on par with champions, and skills as gracious as coordinator. They are the top trainers of the world."
"Well is there a list of who they are?" Gary asked.
Max scrolled down and gawked a bit. " Serena, May, Zoey, Lance, Diantha, Clemont, Korrina, Anabel, Paul..Ash, and Cynthia." Max said, shaking a bit. The whole group was shocked. The fact that their former friends made it to the top, started to make them slowly regret their actions. They turned back to the field to watch the battle.
Battle field-
"I hope you don't mind if I make the first move." Cynthia asked calmly.
"By all means." Anabel replied in a calm manner as well.
"Good, Garchomp brick break." The dragon flew toward at an incredible speed almost making it look like a blur, while it's wings started to glow white.
Anable remains calm and prepared. "Metagross, my friend. Bullet punch if you will." the steel type zoomed across the field just as fast claws glowing silver. The both met center field, Garchomp swiping down, and Metagross thrusting it's arm forwards. When their attacks collided, it created a shockwave and a powerful gust of wind. Garchomp breaks away from the struggle and flies in the air.
Cynthia and Anabel were still smiling. "It seems you've gotten stronger."
"Thanks, it means alot coming from a champion." Anabel replied.
Cynthia nodded and gave another order. "Garchomp, dragon pulse." "Gar!" Garchomp shot a purple like dragon shape beam out its mouth towards it's opponents.
"Flash cannon please." Anabel yelled. "Meta!" Metagross charged a white beam from the 'x' on it's head and shot it towards the air. When the two beams collided, it created a bright explosion of energy causing everyone but the battlers and Ash and his friends. to cover their eyes, but soon the explosion died down.
"Well do you want to end the warm up Anabel?" Cynthia asked, moving her hair away from her right ear, showing a keystone.
"Of course, it'll be fun." Anabel responded, lifting up her right hand showing a keystone on her ring finger. "Keystone responded to my heart, Mega evolved!" Anabel chanted touching the ring on her finger, causing it to produce a rainbowish color. Soon both pokemon started to glow blue and when the light died down. Metagross' appearance took a form where four legs on it's back of its head. The cross on its face turned gold and it was floating.
Mega Garchomp head and shoulder was more angular, it had five to like spikes on its abdomen and red spikes growing from its knees. It's claws also grew and turned into blades.
"I start things off this time, Bullet punch please my friend." Metagross charged into the air towards Garchomp in the air fist glowing silver, preparing to attack.
"Garchomp, dodge it and counter with a brick break!" Garchomp glided to the side, dodging the attack, claws glowing white and slammed it on the top of the steel type, sending it to the ground, crashing causing a dust cloud. Cynthia turned to her opponent and noticed she was smirking.
Anabel noticed and spoke, "it's not over yet. Flash Cannon please." awhite beam came from the dust cloud towards Garchomp, slamming into it causing a smoke screen.
"I gotta say I'm enjoying this, but I believe it's my move. Garchomp dragon rush, go!"
"Meteor mash, my friend!" The dragon charged in with a purple dragon shaped aura around it, while metagross aligned his claws forward towards the dragon and charged right back with a silver blue aura around it. They kept clashing back and forth causing multiple shockwaves, neither one wavering.
"Hyper beam, Garchomp/My friend!" the two trainers yelled at the same time. Both pokemon distance themselves from each other and release a purple energy beam toward each other causing the whole sky to be wrapped in a purple light. Everyone covered their eyes from the explosion of the two mega evolution pokemon. Before they could continue, Ash walked on the stadium, halting both of them.
"TIMES UP, THE EXHIBITION MATCH IS OVER! I LIKE TO THANK OUR TWO PARTICIPANTS FOR THE BATTLE, SO GIVE LETS GIVE A HAND TO CYNTHIA AND ANABEL!" Ash said, making the audience cheer for both the girls. Anabel looked at Cynthia and nod with a mischievous smirk. Cynthia, getting the message, walked up to Ash with Anabel and both kissed him on the cheek causing him to blush.
-Ash friends-
"You would expect Ash to be able to handle girls by now." Paul teased. Zoey nodded, while May was chuckling. But Serena was quiet which didn't go unnoticed.
"Are you ok big sister Serena?" Bonnie asked. Serena snapped out her thought and smiled at Bonnie.
Serena snapped out of her thoughts and smiled at the younger blonde. "I'm fine, I just wish there was something I could do?" bonnie gave her a confused look,
Stadium-
After calming down, Ash smiled as he looked at the exhausted pokemon. "NOW THAT THE BATTLE IS OVER, IT WOULD SEEM THE POKEMON COULD USE A LITTLE HEALING FROM A CERTAIN POKEMON DOCTOR, AM I RIGHT? SO LET ME INTRODUCED THE TOURNAMENT DOCTOR AND A BROTHER IN ALL BUT BLOOD, BROCK STONE!" Ash's former friend's mouth dropped as the middle of the stadium floor in a circle revealing a hole with a light coming from it, and out from the hole rising was a tan man with his eyes closed wearing a white lab coat.
