Chapter two

Prodigy Battle and Week One

Jacob was staring me down, most likely hoping that I would lose my nerve before the battle commenced, in which case, I would have surrendered. Before I knew what had happened, he had released his first pokemon, a Geodude. I had one clear-cut choice, my Pyrorahna. "I play, Pyrorahna!" I yelled, knowing that even with Jacob's knowledge of pokemon, as vast as it was, wouldn't know of the Pyrorahna. I was correct, as usual, although his Geodude did look remarkably tough.

I pulled out Dex, my pokedex, and requested information on my opponent, which only led Jacob to begin gloating. "Pokemon number seventy- four, Geodude. Currently at level eight. Currently knows the attacks tackle, defense curl, and rock smash. It uses its arms to steadily climb steep mountain paths. It swings its fists around if angered. This is a common pokemon. Its name means Geode, or a round rock, and dude, meaning fellow." Noting what it was capable of, I threw out Pyrorahna. He saw the small fish pokemon, and not knowing what it was capable of ordered a quick tackle attack. As Geodude rushed forward, I realized that this would be my toughest battle so far. I ordered Pyrorahna to bite down hard as Geodude's punch passed. The only thing I had forgotten, though, was that Geodude had two arms.

I waited until Geodude was about to punch my scaly pokemon to make my call. "Pyrorahna, when Geodude punches at you, rocket back with a water gun. Then, perform a rapid-fire water gun attack." Jacob heard and tried to cancel the attack, but the Geodude was too angry and provoked at the thought of a literal fish out of water defeating him in a battle of power. As it threw the punch, Pyrorahna blasted backwards, also sending Geodude flying back, and plowing it into the ground.

It was quite clear that Geodude wasn't getting back up. "Geodude is unable to battle. Jacob, send out your next pokemon." Said Professor Evergreen. Jacob threw out his next pokeball a little too quickly for my liking. Out of it popped a Carvanha and a mean-looking one too. Our two pokemon rushed forward, in a high-speed game of chicken. Too bad for us that they both slammed into the other, nearly knocking each other out. Unfortunately Pyrorahna was slightly weaker and did fall unconscious. Knowing that I only had fire types left, I sent out my Houndour. Once Jacob saw this, he started laughing, thinking he had another round won. I would prove him wrong, and be happy of it. As Carvanha rushed forward, Houndour blasted a stream of fire out at my opponent's Carvanha, stopping it, mid- tackle.

"So," said Jacob. "I see that you have trained all of your pokemon well, so far. But how will they fare against all of my Carvanha's power?" With that, his Carvanha rushed forward again, only to be sent upward by a Headbutt, and then nearly barbecued it with and ember attack, much stronger than the last. Jacob frowned, returned Carvanha, and sent out his last resort against the fire trainer, a Rei-a. "Rei-a, Hypnosis technique!" He yelled. I had Houndour power up for an ember attack, but just as it was firing up, he fell victim to the hypnosis attack. I smirked a bit and then threw out Nix, my soon to be greatest fighter. At the mere sight of a Nix, let alone an adult one, the entire crowd watching us burst into cheers. This may be my first battle, but every child memorizes all of a Nix and Phoenix's attacks.

"Nix! Blaze Kick technique at 3-o'clock!" I yelled as my Nix shot its leg out at a perfect forty-five degree angle, throwing the lunging Rei-a's body back, into the dust.

"Rei-a is unable to battle! I declare Aaron, with one pokemon left, the victor of the battle, by knock-out!" Exclaimed Professor Evergreen. Jacob and I walked forward and shook hands and then we got all of our pokemon healed. As we walked home, since we live next door to each other, I proposed the idea of us training together. Jacob, although my eternal rival, was happy to train with the only other trainer currently in his league within Warwick. As we trained our hardest for the next week, we had many more battles, sometimes at least two or three a day, as well as capture sessions. Quickly, we began rising in rank, until we were tied for the highest rank in overall abilities in the North-east, as well as the top fifty trainers in the country. As I saw Jacob train, harder and harder, I noticed that he seemed strongest in the field of water pokemon. From there on out, he concentrated on training his Carvanha and Rei-a. On Thursday, during a one-on-one sparring match between Houndour and Rei-a, they both began to glow a bright white light. Once the light cleared, it revealed a Rei-ki, the evolved form of Rei-a, and a Houndoom. Curious as usual about fire pokemon, I checked the pokedex to inform me of Houndoom.

"Houndoom... Demon dog pokemon. Number 229... Its name comes from Hound, meaning dog, and Doom. Also known as "the dog who brings doom. If you are burned by the flames it shoots from its mouth, the pain will never go away." Scrolled out Dex. Only two words could describe this achievement: Kick ass! Now that Houndoom was on my side, I need only worry about Pyrorahna evolving in to what I believe is called a Sharpyro before the competition and trials to decide the North-east Gym Leader. With one week behind us, leaving two until the National Tournament, things were about to heat up.

Next Time on Real-World League

This is Jacob here, announcing that even though I've caught up to my eternal rival after many years of work and a week of training, I may soon fall behind. Next time, see the Quilava whose capture's worth a mint. 'It's a freakin' blessing from Heaven' as Aaron would say. See ya soon. Bye!
