Chapter 6

Where we last left off, Team RWBY try to catch members of Team Rocket that were trying to steal the Pokemon at the Pokemon Center. But Team Rocket was stopped by Franklin by the use of spicy Tomato Berry gas bombs and a combination of different martial arts. Yet Blue has challenged Franklin in a Pokemon battle in the back of the Center. Team RWBY watches with a few other people watching.

I wanna be the very best
Like no one ever was
To catch them is my real test
To train them is my cause

(Pokémon!)
(Gotta catch 'em all), it's you and me
(Pokémon!)
I know it's my destiny
(Pokémon!)
Yeah, you're my best friend
In a world we must defend
(Pokémon!)
(Gotta catch 'em all)
Gotta catch 'em all
Gotta catch 'em all!
Pokémon!

Two holographic screen then appeared on the sides of the arena that show the two trainers and six Pokeballs next to them.

"What's that?" Ruby asks.

"You don't know what that is?" one of the female trainers say. "That's shows the trainers and their Pokemon. Plus, it also shows the Pokemon's HP bar to let you know how much energy the Pokemon has left before fainting."

Blue raises his Pokeball at Franklin, "This will be a full battle! Six Pokemon each! No time limit! Yet neither side can use potions, berries, or any other items unless held!"

"Got it!" Franklin then raises his Pokeball, "Then let's begin!"

Blake is holding her Megadex for the rest of Team RWBY to understand what kind of Pokemon they are using.

Blue throws his Pokeball, "Go, Magneton!"

Blue calls out his Magneton and is ready for battle.

Franklin throws his, "Go, Roobeop!"

Franklin calls out some sort of kangaroo looking Pokemon with a tuff tail with black tips as well as black feet with its body below the waist being brown while the upper part is light brown with a white belly yet has brown boxing gloves.

'Never seen that Pokemon before.' Blue thought while trying to hide his nervousness.

Roobeop. The kangaroo Pokemon and the evolve form of Roobeo. Roobeop are lonesome Pokémon, though sometimes travel in packs they still keep to themselves. Some Roobeop are mischievous and like to play tricks on other Pokémon and trainers passing by.

Trivia: This Pokemon is from Pokemon Solar Light and Lunar Dark.

Now the match begins.

Blue orders, "Magneton, use thunder wave!"

Magneton unleashes blue bolts from the magnets of its body that turn into rings of electrical waves that were sent to Roobeop. However they don't seem to affect it.

"What the-?!" Blue says in shock. (no pun intended)

Yang says, "Looks like he's...in shock." Everyone just ignore her and focus on the battle which makes Yang upset. "Oh come on!"

Franklin smirks, "Sorry! But Roobeop is not only part fighting-type...it's part ground-type."

Blue then orders, "Use flash cannon!"

Franklin orders, "Use jump kick!"

Magneton fires a silvery beam from its magnets while Roobeop jumps high in the air. The beam and the kick made contact but Roobeop's kick scatters the beam as he keep on charging at Magneton. Which turns out to be super effective as Magneton's HP bar drops to zero which ultimately forces Magneton to return to its Pokeball. Yet Franklin returns Roobeop to his Pokeball.

That is when Yang says, "That was...shocking!" Then Ruby smacked the backside of her head.

Blue then tosses another Pokeball, "Go, Umbreon!"

Franklin tosses his, "Go for it, Sylveon!"

Both Pokemon appear on the battlefield with Umbreon having a more serious look to it. Sylveon, on the other hand, starts tackling Franklin and snuggles him in a similar matter that Ash's Chikorita/Bayleef did in the Pokemon anime. Weiss finds it adorable along with Ruby.

"How adorable!" Weiss says with her hands clench and close to her chin.

Ruby does the same, "I was I can be between Sylveon and Franklin right now!"

Yang nudges Ruby, "I wish I'm Sylveon right now." Then gets whacked on the head again.

"Interesting." Blake says while looking at the Megadex. "Both Pokemon are the evolve form of Eevee."

Blue smirks, 'I knew he was going for her.' Then orders, "Umbreon, use toxic!"

"Dodge, quick!" Franklin ordered.

Umbreon fires a stream of purple liquid from its yellow ring on its forehead as Sylveon gracefully dodges the toxic move by dancing. Umbreon fires a the best that it can but Sylveon keeps on dodging every shot.

"Sylveon's fast!" Weiss says in surprise.

"And a great dancer to boot!" Yang also says in surprise.

Franklin then says, "Now use moonblast!"

Sylveon spreads her feelers wide open, and an image of the moon appears behind her as she jumps in the air. It then forms an orb of pink energy in front of her mouth, and fires it at Blue's Umbreon. And it was a direct hit! Umbreon's HP bar drops all the way down to zero which forces Umbreon back to its Pokeball. Two victories for Franklin and none for Blue. Franklin's Sylveon then runs up to him and snuggles him again.

Franklin pets Sylveon while being on the ground, "Way to go girl!" Then holds up Sylveon's Pokeball, "Take a good rest. You've earned it."

Blue starts to get frustrated with his predicament as he pulls up his third Pokeball, "Next round. Come on!"

After Franklin returns Sylveon to her ball, he got back up and holding his next Pokemon, "You got it!"

"Go, Gyarados!"

"Go, Typhlosion!"

Blue has call forth his Gyarados while Franklin uses Typhlosion. However, Typhlosion has a very special item hanging around its neck.

"So a fire-type against a water and flying-type." Blake says after looking at her Megadex. "That seems like a bad match-up."

"But what's that thing around its neck?" Ruby asks after noticing it.

Weiss' eyes widen, "It's a mega stone!"

Yang goes, "A what?"

Franklin slaps his hand on the key stone on his glove while saying, "Key stone! Show us the power of our bond! Mega evolve!"

Streams of energy start coming out of his key stone and Typhlosion's mega stone and made contact with each other which causes Typhlosions body to glow. Typhlosion transform as the blue areas turn black and started to have spiky hair with flames coming from its shoulders and legs along with having a grayish, smoke-like hair on its back.

Trivia: Mega Typhlosion is from Pokemon Insurgence. Go to the wiki if you want to see what it actually looks like. Oh, and Cyndaquil is the #1 starter to choose when doing Johto.

Team RWBY are completely stunned by seeing mega evolution for the first time.

Blue laughs, "Hahahaha! Seriously!? Even when mega evolving, it's still a fire type! Gyarados is part water-type!"

Franklin just smiles, "True. But there are ways to overcome type disadvantages."

Blue scoffs, "Whatever! Gyarados, use hydro pump!"

Blue's Gyarados blasts a powerful jet of water out of its mouth at Typhlosion.

"Use wild charge to dodge!" Franklin ordered.

Mega Typhlosion's body becomes surrounded by yellow electricity while it runs away to the left of the hydro pump. Then runs up towards Gyarados.

Blue panics, "Use dragon tail!"

Gyarados' tail becomes covered in a green, scale-patterned aura right before hitting the electrically charged Mega Typhlosion which cancel each other out. Although Gyarados survived, Mega Typhlosion suffers from recoil damage from the wild charge and lost 3% of its health.

"Now use dragon rage!"

Gyarados creates a light blue orb of energy inside of its stomach. It then fires a powerful blast of blue and black energy in the shape of a dragon at Typhlosion.

"Use overheat!"

Mega Typhlosion's body turns a faint red and it releases a white fire with a red-orange flame spiraling around it at the incoming dragon rage. Both special attacks created a twister of blue, black, orange, and white flames at the center where the two attacks meet which is awe inspiring to look at. But while distracted, Mega Typhlosion manage to sneak behind Gyarados. Blue got caught off guard as he notices.

"Now use thunder punch!"

Mega Typhlosion's left fist started to spark orange electricity as it punches the backside of Gyarados which caused an instant knockout. Then Gyarados gets returned to its ball. Franklin doesn't seem to return Mega Typhlosion to its ball after their victory.

Ruby states an observation, "So you can teach other move types to over come your Pokemon's type disadvantage."

"I should write that down." Weiss says as she just randomly pulls out a notepad and pen.

Yang notices, "Since when do you have a notepad and pen?"

Blue becomes more frustrated as he throws his next Pokeball, "Go, Rhydon!" Blue has call forth his Rhydon and looks ready for battle. "Are you going to return that Pokemon and switch it out for something else?!"

"Nope!" Franklin says with a smile.

Blue smirks, "Well too bad. Rhydon use double-edge!"

Rhydon becomes surrounded in streaks of white aura and then charges at Mega Typhlosion with a great amount of force.

"Dodge it!"

Mega Typhlosion quickly dodges Rhydon's double-edge by jumping into the air as Rhydon rams into the ground with Mega Typhlosion doing some mid-air somersaults right before landing on its feet on Blue's side of the field.

"That has to hurt." Yang states. "Double-edge is a move that causes recoil damage from what I've read."

"But look at Rhydon's HP bar!" Ruby points. Yang, Ruby, and Weiss look at the screen, "Rhydon is fine!"

"How is that possible?" Weiss asks.

"Rock head." Blake says. "It's Rhydon ability that negates the effects of moves that are supposed to cause recoil damage."

Franklin then orders, "Use solar beam!"

"A grass-type move?!" Weiss says in surprise. "Typhlosion can use a grass-type move?!"

Mega Typhlosion have its hands close together as a golden orb of energy starts to form.

"Use drill run, hurry!" Blue says in a panic.

Rhydon's horn started to spin and makes a power drill sound while it lunges at Mega Typhlosion. Rhydon does land a hit while Mega Typhlosion is charging. Mega Typhlosion took the hit yet stands tall while charging his solar beam along with having 25% of its health gone. Mega Typhlosion now has gathered enough energy and blasted Rhydon at point-blank with it. Rhydon's HP is now in the red yet still holding strong.

"Now use overheat!"

Mega Typhlosion uses overheat again and this time it caused Rhydon to faint. Score is know Franklin 4, Blue 0. Then Mega Typhlosion turns back into regular Typhlosion when being returned to its Pokeball.

Blue is starting to get angrier as he calls out his fifth Pokemon, 'Ugh, this is annoying! If I'm going down, I'm taking at least one of his Pokemon with me! At least one!' "Go, Aerodactyl!"

Franklin then calls out his, "Go, Lurantis!"

When Team RWBY see the two Pokemon, they can see another size difference and some bad match-ups.

Yang says, "A small bug-like creature against a giant, flying monster? This is interesting."

Ruby states, "Considering what we saw in that last round, I think Franklin will get another score."

"Although he must've trained his Pokemon well." Blake says. "He managed to defeat most of Blue's Pokemon with almost one hit. Their effort values, individual values, and characteristics must be off the charts."

Franklin then orders, "Use sunny day!"

Two white orbs appear on the ends of Lurantis' scythes, and it releases the two white orbs into the sky. The orbs combine as one and form a bright sun over the battlefield.

Yang and Ruby says in surprise, "POKEMON CAN MANIPULATE THE WEATHER AND CONTROL THE DAY AND NIGHT CYCLE!?"

"Guess you must've missed that one." Blake says.

"It was on the exam." Weiss says with a bit of a snarky smirk.

However, Blue started to smirk as he says, "Big mistake! Aerodactyl, use flamethrower!"

Aerodatyl opens its mouth and jets of fire comes out of it.

"You're the one who made the mistake!" Franklin says with a smirk. "Use solar blade and capture that flamethrower!"

Lurantis absorbs sunlight into itself and forms a large yellow ball of light above its head. Lurantis then raises one of its hands and turns the ball into a giant blade of yellow light and very quickly due to the effects of sunny day. Then spins to capture the flames with it that causes the yellow blade of light to catch fire and glow orange.

"What?!" Blue says in surprise.

Franklin says, "I just use a contest move I used. You should really know your opponent before facing them. Now do it!"

Lurantis then tries to its combined moves on Aerodactyle but then Blue had an idea.

"Use supersonic!"

Aerodactyl opens its mouth again and emits a loud sound that makes shock waves in the air and causes poor Blake to cover her ears hidden in her bow and scream in agony. Franklin covers his ears too and in serious pain. Lurantis gets affected by this too yet thanks to leaf guard, it doesn't become confuse. But the shock wave of the move causes the blade to dissipate into air and the solar blade to stop.

"Now use wing attack!"

Aerodactyl's wings start to glow white as it becomes fast and hit Lurantis, but only does 8% of damage.

"What?!" Blue says in surprise. "Only 8%?! But that was a flying-type move and Lurantis is a bug-type! That should've been super effective or done more damage!"

"Actually, Lurantis is a grass-type." Franklin corrected after recovering. "But, my Lurantis have been trained hard, raised well, worked hard, and given special foods I've prepared to increase its EV's which includes defenses against super effective moves."

"Looks like Blake called it." Yang says.

"What?!" Blake shouted. "I can't hear!"

"Now use solar blade!"

Lurantis uses solar blade again and did some damage, 26%. It managed to pin down Aerodactyl do the ground and has some bruises on its body.

"Gottcha'!" Blue says. "Now use flamethrower!"

With Aerodactyl now in point range, it uses flamethrower and does 56% of damage due to being so close to the source of the heat which changed the color of Lurantis' HP bar to yellow. But to make things worse, the effects of sunny day is now over.

"Now use supersonic!"

"Use petal blizzard!"

Lurantis is then surrounded by glowing pink petals as Aerodactyl uses supersonic. However, when the supersonic blow away the petals, Lurantis disappeared.

"What in the-?!" Blue says in surprise along with Aerodactyl.

"Now use x-scissor with petal blizzard!"

Lurantis crosses its scythes together in an 'X' like fashion and they glow light blue as Lurantis comes down from the air while being surrounded by glowing pink petals. It slammed on top of Aerodactyl with x-scissor while also hitting it with the petals which causes Aerodactyl's HP bar to drop to zero and returned to its ball as the petal blizzard dissipates with Lurantis returned to its ball.

Blue then holds his last Pokeball, 'Dang it! This is my last Pokemon! But luckily, this is my best one.' "Go, Blastoise!"

Franklin then throws his fifth Pokeball, "Go, Raichu!"

Blastoise comes out and has its cannons ready to go. As for Franklin, it's an Alolan Raichu.

"Super cute!" Ruby admits.

Blake looks at her Megadex, "Hold on, got the wrong version of Raichu. Ah, here we go. An Alolan Raichu."

Team RWBY learned about the Alolan variant about Raichu along with the original Raichu.

"How do we get that?" Weiss asks. "Do we go to the Alola Region to get a Pikachu to evolve into a part psychic-type?"

"That is a good question." Yang admits that those are good questions. "Is there a place to do that here?"

"Raichu, use thunder shock!"

Alolan Raichu gets enveloped in yellow electricity and sends out a bolt to Blastoise.

"Use skull bash!" Blue ordered.

Blastoise lunges, the bolt gets delfected, and manage to do 50% of damage to the Alolan Raichu.

"Now use hydro pump!"

Blastoise aim its cannons at Raichu and fires powerful gets of water.

"Use psychic!"

Alolan Raichu uses psychic on Blastoise's hydro pump which causes it to glow light green and hits Blastoise with its own hydro pump. But that only does 2% of damage.

'Blue's Blastoise is tough.' Franklin thinks, 'Although I am not surprised. It is his partner after all.' But then he notices something hanging on Blastoise's left gun strapped on it. His eyes widen, "Wait. Is that-?"

"It is!" Blue smirks with confidence. "A mega stone!" Blue then pulls out a key stone in his right pocket while also causes Blastoise to mega evolve.

Franklin smiles, "Oh hey! You finally achieved mega evolution! Good for you!" Then realizes, "Oh wait... Oh. Uh-oh. Quick, use electric terrain!"

"Mega Blastoise, use skull bash!"

Mega Blastoise then lunges at Alolan Raichu yet way more faster which both Franklin and his Raichu didn't even had the time to react and Alolan Raichu is out for the count.

"Yes!" Blue cheered as Alolan Raichu is defeated.

"It seems you've been training hard with your new found power." Franklin shows some admiration for his opponent. "Now things are getting interesting." He pulled out not a Pokeball, but an ultra ball and throws it, "Go, Mew!"

Out of the ultra ball comes the mythical Pokemon, Mew.

"AWWWWWWW!" Yang, Ruby, and Weiss admires the Pokemon. "SUPER CUTE!"

"It's like an adorable, pink, flying kitten!" Yang says.

Blake just rolls her eyes while looking at the Megadex. But is surprised on what kind of Pokemon it is.

"I thought you would use that Pokemon." Blue says. "But unlike what you did to Red, I'm more prepared. Use hydro pump!"

Mega Blastoise aimed its giant cannon and smaller arm cannons at Mew and fires at it.

"Dodge it!"

Mew playfully dodges all of Mega Blastoise's hydro pumps and almost hit Franklin. Mew just fly around as water is spread all over the battlefield and some of the trainers got wet. Blake...ended-up getting washed and is really ticked off while the other three managed to dodge. She sits there pouting as she puts the Megadex away with Weiss, Ruby, and Yang feeling a little bad for her. Back at the fight, Mew laughs playfully as Mega Blastoise keeps missing.

"And now, for my next trick." Franklin spins the bracelet until he landed on one that is yellow with a little lighting bolt. "Time for a Z-move!"

"A what?" Ruby went.

"I think it may have something to do with that giant fire column we saw earlier." Yang states.

Weiss helps Blake with a towel and dry her off yet stop to watch.

The Z-crystal starts to glow as Mew imitates what Franklin does as Franklin does some sort of dance which follows up with the energy imbuing onto Mew right before a strange symbol in front of it.

"Now! Gigavolt Havoc!"

Mew has gathered enough energy in the form of a large ball of yellow electricity with its tail and launches it right at Mega Blastoise. Mega Blastoise got hit hard as it became enveloped by the electricity and its HP bar went all the way down to 9%. Mega Blastoise is hanging on there and very determined to keep battling.

"That was awesome!" Ruby jumps up and down in excitement. "Where do I get that?!"

"Easy there, lil' sis." Yang attempts to calm Ruby down. "I don't think it is easy for anyone to get those moves."

"You can say that again." the male trainer says.

Then a female trainer says, "Yeah, I try to get a fairy-type z-crystal, but I ended-up failing my trial."

"Sounds tough." Weiss says.

"No kidding! I was up against a totem Pokemon and lost."

"A what now?" Blake asks after mishearing.

Franklin whistles, "Man, Mega Blastoise's special defense is impressive. You're a better challenge than you're friend, Red, was. Remember how I beat him?"

Blue starts to look angry, "Yeah. I remember." Then orders, "Mega Blastoise, use bite!"

Mega Blastoise opens its mouth mouth and creates a white aura shaped like a set of teeth and charges at Mew.

"Use zap cannon!"

Mew put its hands together and a yellow ball of electricity forms in between them. It then fires the ball at Mega Blastoise. Mega Blastoise got hit right before it transform back into Blastoise and its HP bar dropped to zero which causes it to return back to its Pokeball. The holo-screen shows all of Blue's Pokemon have fainted and then shows Franklin's portrait with the 'Winner' word below with golden bold letters. The crowd cheers after such a battle.

Ruby jumps up, "He won!"

"I think I like Franklin more and more." Yang says right before Ruby wrestles her.

"That...was something else." Weiss is a little impressed. Yet started thinking, 'Now I want a Mew! It's super cute!'

"I gotta say, who knew full Pokemon battles would be interesting." Blake says.

Blue then runs up to Franklin and is all up in his personal space as he yells, "Don't think you're gonna get away with this!" He sounds really upset, "You stole something from me and I will train hard to defeat you! Then I'm gonna face Red and reclaim my title as Champion of Kanto!"

"Care to fill in the peanut gallery?!" Yang shouts. "What happened to this Red guy?!"

Prof. Oak's Lab, Pallet Town - Kanto Region - Five Years and Three Months Ago

Red, Blue, Prof. Oak, and a female assistant are sitting around a table eating some strawberry cake.

Prof. Oak says to Red and Blue, "You know, you both did very well. The Pokedex that I've long dreamed of is finally complete."

Although Blue acts like a sore loser, "I should've caught Mewtwo, you know? I was the one that is supposed to be the champion after all."

But then Red had a revelation.

"What is it, Red?" Prof. Oak asks. Wondering what Red is thinking.

"Mewtwo was created from a Pokemon called, Mew. Wasn't that what they said?" he said.

Everyone at the table was surprised to hear it.

Red jumped up from his seat with a fiery determination, "That means, Mew's still out there!"

Outside the window, Mew is flying by right before going to parts unknown. Yet there is a loud knock on the door.

"Excuse me!" someone says at the door. "Is Red here!? The champion!? I got all eight badges and defeated the Elite Four but the champion wasn't at the Pokemon League! They told me I can find him here!"

Red goes up to the door and opens it and it is 10-year-old Franklin wearing a green and blue stripped T-shirt, blue cargo shorts, a white and blue cap, green and black sneakers, a Z-ring on his right arm and a mega bracelet to his left, and a dark green backpack.

"Hello, my name is Franklin." he greets with a friendly smile, "Are you Red?"

"Yeah." Red nodded.

"Good. I'm here to challenge you for the championship title."

"But how did you get all eight badges when the Viridian Gym is close?"

"Oh that? The police were there trying to figure out what happened to some guy name Giovanni, the leader of Team Rocket, so they shut the place down. But the police were nice enough to just hand out badges. I was a little upset that I didn't get to test my skills on ground-types, but I just took the badge."

That's it for now. See you guys in the next chapter.
