Sdrive: ok, the long awaited, Yugi vs, Falkner! By the way, Don't be surprised if these borders First Season of Yugioh! Only way I could really make it work. Not too bad but close to First Season.

---------

They were riding down the elevator, they got out and Falkner took them to a secret room. Behind it was an auto healer. Falkner placed the Poke Balls into it and his Pokemon were automatically healed.

"When did you get that?" Ash asked.

"Every Gym has it. It speeds up the healing process by giving my Pokemon all the needed medication within a few seconds. Now if you are ready, Why don't we go back up to the gym?"

They headed out of the elevator and Ash noticed something on the ground. "What is this? The Big Blue Book of Anger Management? Hmmm, I wonder who dropped this."

"My battle is all I'm worried about right now." The puzzle glowed and he turned into Yami. "Let's do this Falkner!"

They got out and they each went onto their own sides of the arena.

"Alright, a two on two, battle; only the challenger may switch Pokemon," the referee said as he explained the rules, "BEGIN!"

"Hoot Hoot, I chose you!" Falkner threw the ball and the owl appeared once more.

"Hoot Hoot!" It said.

"I choose you, Ryhorn!" Yami said as he threw the ball. The Ryhorn appeared in a flash of light.

"Do you think he stands a chance?" Tea asked from the sidelines.

"It doesn't look good for him. He really doesn't have any good Pokemon that are good against Flying Types, he'll have to have a plan."

"Go Ryhorn! Go strike it down, Horn Attack!" The Ryhorn went forward and tried to spear the small owl as it flew up into the air. "Ryhorn, stay perfectly calm. Don't do anything." Ryhorn stayed standing, awaiting it's next orders.

"Don't give it up Hoot Hoot, he might be trying something, just stay in the air!" Falkner yelled up to Hoot Hoot. Hoot Hoot was flapping it's wings hard as Ryhorn just stayed there doing nothing.

"What is he doing?" Tea asked Brock.

"I'm not sure, but the look in his eyes tells me he has a plan."

Yami was standing there grinning. "What are you smiling about?" Falkner asked.

"Just wait a bit longer." Yami replied with a smile. They stood there for a bit longer and then Hoot Hoot began to fall from the sky. "It's working."

"What's going on?" Falkner asked stunned.

"It should be obvious, you weren't going to let Hoot Hoot get too close or it could get hurt, so you put it in the only safe place possible, the sky! But remember, Hoot Hoot is a small Pokemon, it can only flap it's wings for so long and stay up above the ground before it has to come back down. You have tired it out!"

"NOO!!!" Falkner cried. Falkner watched as the small Pokemon tried to stay up but eventually came crashing down to the ground.

"Now is your chance Ryhorn!" Yami cried, "Use your stomp attack!" Ryhorn charged at Hoot Hoot and crushed it beneath it's feet. It was putting all it's weight into beating the small Pokemon with it's feet.

"Hoot Hoot return!" Falkner cried as he held up the Poke Ball and Hoot Hoot disappeared in a flash of light.

"Hoot Hoot is unable to battle! Ryhorn is the winner." The ref said.

"That was a pretty cool strategy," Ash commented.

"True, but now Falkner will choose Pidgeot, and it will be much harder to defeat then Hoot Hoot was. "Brock explained. "Hoot Hoot isn't that tough, but Pidgeot is ten times tougher if not stronger still!"

"Pidgeot Go!" Falkner cried as it appeared in a flash of light. "I'm sorry Yugi but this is the end of the line for your Ryhorn!"

"I don't think so Falkner. If you remember, Ryhorn didn't use up too much energy in that last round, he's still a formidable foe."

"We'll see how formidable he is when he faces my Pidgeot's Wing Attack!" Pidgeot's wings started to glow as they went straight towards Ryhorn.

"Ryhorn, Horn Drill!" Ryhorn's horn began to spin rapidly. Just as Pidgeot's wings collided with Ryhorn Ryhorn's Horn went right into Pidgeot's stomach. They both repelled backwards and crashed onto the ground. "Ryhorn, please stand up!"

"Pidgeot, let's show this kid we don't give up that easily! Get up and fly!" Falkner called.

Ryhorn started to stand up but Pidgeot was already in the air. "Pidgeot Razor Wind!" Pidgeot flapped its wings hard and let loose a shearing wind. The wind blasted down on Ryhorn and Ryhorn collapsed. Its eyes had the spinning in the swirl pattern.

"Ryhorn is unable to battle! Pidgeot is the winner!" the ref called.

"Go Growlithe!" Yami called it appeared. "Growlithe, be very careful, this Pidgeot is extremely strong." Growlithe nodded its head in understanding. It looked over at Pidgeot in the air. "Go Flame Thrower!" Growlithe sent out a stream of fire from its mouth which Pidgeot dispersed by simply flapping its wings. "That is some strength. We will have to think of a better plan than that. Suddenly Pidgeot was in back of Growlithe and it released a Wing Attack on Growlithe. "What happened?" Yami asked confused as he watched Growlithe slam into the ground.

"My Pidgeot can reach speeds up to Moch 5, there is no way to stop it." Falkner said. Growlithe started to stand up when it was hit from the front by another wing attack by Pidgeot sending it flying backwards.

"This is not good. Growlithe, please stand up." Growlithe was able to stand but it looked exhausted. 'There must be some way to detect when Pidgeot is going to strike.' Yami thought. 'Wait that's it.' "Growlithe, sniff the air and prepare to get ready to use flame thrower."

"That will never work! Pidgeot finish it off!"

(Spiderman Spidey sense moment) Growlithe smelled the air, and all of a sudden everything became really slow, you could see Tea sneeze in slow motion, the bead of sweat from Yami was going down extremely slowly, you could even sorta still see Team Rocket blasting away in the background from the last chapter. But most importantly Growlithe could sense which direction Pidgeot was coming from. Normal speed resumes and Growlithe turns his head quick enough for it to let off a Flame Thrower just as Pidgeot is about to hit it! Growlithe was flung backwards again and Pidgeot let out a cry of pain. When the dust settled everyone saw that Pidgeot's feathers were badly burned right where it got hit by Ryhorn's Horn Drill.

"Growlithe get up, we are almost there!" Yami called. Growlithe started to get up as Falkner cried out to Pidgeot from the other side of the field.

"Pidgeot get up!" Pidgeot started to get up but not before Growlithe started to glow in a brilliant white light. It got taller and some of it's facial features changed. It had evolved into Arcanine!

"What did it turn into?" Yami asked as he pulled out his pokedex.

Cool Battle Music Removed to Make Way for Dorky Pokedex Music In Middle of Battle: Arcanine, the evolved form of Growlithe, it is believed that Arcanine have amazing abilities and are the some of the best pets available. Return of Cool Battle Music That Had To Be Taken Away Due To Someone Stupid Opening Up Their Pokedex During the Gym Battle.

"Arcanine, Charge towards Pidgeot and use Fire Blast!" Arcanine ran at an incredible speed and blasted Pidgeot with a burst of fire setting Pidgeot on fire. Pidgeot tried to extinguish the flames on it's feathers as Arcanine headbutted it and caused it to roll on the ground and be knocked unconscious!

"Pidgeot can no longer Battle! Arcanine is the winner. The Gym Victor is Yugi Moto from Domino City, where ever that is!" The ref announced.

"You put up a good fight Pidgeot. You deserve a long rest." Falkner returned Pidgeot to the Poke Ball and went over to the now, back to normal, Yugi. "That was a terrific duel my friend. Congradulations. You deserve this badge." He said as he handed Yugi the Zepher Badge. "Now, does anyone else want to challenge me?"

"No thanks," Joey said.

"Ditto for me." Tea said.

"I think I'll pass," Tristan said.

Suddenly Mina looked like she had a startling revolution, "Hey, Yugi, you and Kaiba are the only ones who battled Falkner, you must be the ones the Legends talk about. two will battle for signs that they have
what it takes and then go to the palace of the highest battles.

"You must be right." Yugi said. "Well that was a tough duel, I guess we had better go rest at the Pokemon Center." And with that they all headed off to the Pokemon Center.
