Counterattack Shock Rock


Melemele Island: Route 2

On Melemele Island, Route 2 was under attack by Shock Rock's forces.

Then, Goun's portal opened up, and the heroes came through it.

"Whoa, things are an even bigger mess than last time," Martin said.

Then, a call from the Tortuga came through.

"Guys! I'm glad you've made it back!" Aviva said.

"Yeah. It's a good thing." Chris said.

"Shock Rock's brought an army!" Jimmy said.

"You could hardly battle her before, how are you planning to stop her this time?" Koki asked.

"We're just gonna hope that our training was enough!" Ash replied.

"Well, it's not surprising Ash would say that," Mallow said.

"But he sure knows what to say in times like this," Kiawe said.

"Come on, let's go stop Shock Rock!" Chris said, and the heroes moved out to battle Shock Rock's minions.

"Release!" the kids undid their Burst transformations and sent out Lycanroc, Turtonator, Serperior, Zoroark, Abomasnow, Primarina, and Vikavolt.

"Burst!" Ash, Kiawe, Mallow, Gladion, Lillie, Lana, and Sophocles used Burst to combine with Lycanroc, Turtonator, Serperior, Zoroark, Abomasnow, Primarina, and Vikavolt.

Chris and Martin changed Creature Powers to Dragon and Alicorn Powers.

"Stone Edge!" Ash slammed his fist into the ground, causing stone pillars to rise from the ground and rush towards the rock minions.

"Flamethrower!" Kiawe breathed out a stream of fire to scorch some rock minions.

"Leaf Blade!" Mallow's tail glowed green and became like a blade as she slashed a rock minion with it.

"Night Daze!" Gladion slammed his hands into the ground, unleashing a crimson wave of energy at the rock minions.

"Ice Shard!" Lillie formed multiple shards of ice and shot them at the rock minions.

"Sparkling Aria!" Lana sang to form a ball of water and made it burst, shooting out multiple bubbles at the rock minions.

"Bug Buzz!" Sophocles let out a deafening noise to bombard the rock minions with red sound waves.

Chris breathed out an ice breath at some rock minions, freezing them solid.

Martin shot energy beams from his horn at the rock minions.

Soon, the heroes defeated all the rock minions, and in the Tortuga, Aviva, Koki, and Jimmy observed the fight.

"Okay, they took down all the rock guys," Koki said.

"Yeah, but they're just cannon fodder for the boss fight," Jimmy said.

Back on the ground, the heroes were taking it easy when an electrical bolt came crashing towards them which they barely managed to dodge.

From the direction of the attack, there was Shock Rock.

"It's her!" Lana said.

"Bravo for breaking free of my crystals," Shock Rock said. "But this time, there will be none of that."

"Fine, 'cause that's just what we want!" Mallow said.

"We've been training to be ready for you! And now, we'll put it to the test!" Kiawe said.

"My, anxious aren't we?" Shock Rock said. "In that case, I challenge you to a little game."

"Game?" Gladion asked.

Then, Shock Rock raised her arm, and a tower of stone and crystal rose from the ground a distance away.

"See that tower over there? It will soon start crumbling, and if you're all still standing by the time it completely falls, you win. Otherwise, it's my win." Shock Rock said. "If you win, I will retreat this time."

"Alright, we'll play your game!" Kiawe said.

"Good. That's what I'd like to hear!" Shock Rock said as she curled up into a ball and rolled towards the heroes, who dodged.

However, Shock Rock wasn't finished and continued rolling after them.

"Sparkling Aria!" Lana sang to form a ball of water and made it burst, shooting out multiple bubbles at Shock Rock, which managed to slow her down.

"Not bad. However…!" Shock Rock said as she started rolling towards Lana.

Ash then got in front of Lana to block Shock Rock.

"Counter!" Ash took a defensive stance and when Shock Rock rolled into him, Ash's body became enveloped by green energy that allowed him to repel Shock Rock.

Shock Rock quickly regained control of her momentum and rolled after Lillie.

"Blizzard!" Lillie breathed a blizzard at the ground in front of Shock Rock, freezing it in ice to make it slippery.

"That won't stop me!" Shock Rock said as she grew crystal spikes to roll on the ice with more control.

"Shell Trap!" Kiawe blocked Shock Rock with the spikes on his back, forcing her to dodge.

"Hmm, I see you've improved since last time." Shock Rock said as she uncurled herself.

"Grass Knot!" Gladion put his hand on the ground, making several vines grow out of the ground and tangle themselves around Shock Rock.

"It's gonna take more than a few vines to stop me!" Shock Rock said as she broke free of the vines.

"Trop Kick!" Mallow hit Shock Rock with a kick that unleashed petal-shaped bursts of energy.

Then, Chris and Martin hit Shock Rock with a fire breath and energy beam to add on the damage.

"Not bad, but it's far from over!" Shock Rock said as her body began glowing, followed by her body becoming bulkier in shape and more crystal spikes came out from her back with the ones before becoming bigger.

"Looks like she powered up!" Sophocles said.

Shock Rock sparked electricity from her hands and sent out a wave of electric energy at the heroes.

Then, she formed several crystals and launched them high into the air where they multiplied and came falling down towards the heroes.

The heroes managed to dodge most of the crystals but were eventually hit by one or two crystals.

Shock Rock then slammed her fists into the ground to create a quake that knocked the heroes off their feet and released electric sparks.

Shock Rock materialized several small stones and launched them at the heroes.

"Counter!" Ash took a defensive stance and deflected some of the stones.

Kiawe faced his back towards the incoming stones so that his Shell Trap would blow them up.

Mallow used Trop Kick to rapidly kick the stones coming in her direction.

"Hail! And, Aurora Veil!" Lillie released cold air into the sky, causing hail to fall, then she formed a veil of aurora around herself and her friends, which blocked off the rest of the stones.

Seeing that the heroes still had energy to block her attacks, Shock Rock grew impatient.

"Enough of this. I'll end it all with this final attack!" Shock Rock said as she began charging up energy.

"No. Your time is up." a voice said.

The heroes turned towards the source of the voice to see a humanoid reptilian being with metallic armor-like skin.

"Drakkor Ferrus!" Shock Rock said.

Drakkor Ferrus glanced towards Shock Rock's tower to show that the tower had fallen down completely.

"The tower… it's down," Rotom said.

"The tower had already fallen entirely for some time now," Drakkor Ferrus said. "You broke your own rules. It's time for you to face retribution." Drakkor Ferrus said.

"Yes, I understand," Shock Rock said as she stood still.

Drakkor Ferros formed a trident out of gray energy and launched it at Shock Rock, impaling her before leaving the scene.

Shock Rock cried out in pain and collapsed as the heroes watched in shock.

"No way," Ash said.

"He just struck down his own ally," Gladion said.

"It does not matter. My loss here changes nothing. There are still five other servants of our great ruler, including Drakor Ferrus! The war is just reaching its climax!" Shock Rock said as she froze up into a statue before being blown up to pieces.

Despite the fact that their enemy had been defeated, the heroes were not in the mood to celebrate, as they were still in disbelief over Drakkor Ferrus's cruelty.

"I can't believe what he did to his friend," Chris said.

"I mean sure she said we'd win with the tower falling down and all, but this wasn't what I was expecting," Mallow said.

"Yeah, and because of that, this was clearly no win on our part," Kiawe said, and everyone agreed.
