Chapter 5: vs. Anguirus

Somewhere on Mt. Silver, Bruno and Koga are training together.

"Machamp!" shouts Bruno. "Use Cross Chop!"

The four-armed Pokemon runs toward Ariados the spider Pokemon to hit him. "Ariados! Double Team!" orders Koga. Ariados immediately splits into many versions of himself. Machamp immediately stops and looks around in confusion at the many Ariados.

"Use Foresight!" shouts Bruno. Machamp's eyes glows and then he can see which is the real one. Machamp charges for the real one and raises his hand to hit Ariados. "Quick!" Koga shotus. "Spider Web!"

Ariados immediately shot a long string of white web at Machamp, stopping the fighting Pokemon in his track. Ariados kept shooting webs at Machamp until the four-armed Pokemon is wrapped up like a yarn ball. "Looks like I won," says Koga to Bruno, but Bruno just smiles. Machamp bursts out from the yarn ball so suddenly that Ariados has no time to react. Machamp uses the powerful and destructive Dynamic Punch on Ariados, creating a big explosion. After the smokes cleared, Ariados is lying on the ground in defeat.

"I won, Koga," says Bruno.

"Well, it was a great match," says Koga, trying not to feel down.

"You are very good too," Bruno tells him. "We have been training together for about a year already. We are now in the same level of power."

"Yes," replies Koga. "Training with you was not a waste of time. A ninja will always seek power and satisfy his master."

"Are you still going to look for your master? It's impossible to find him." Bruno asks him.

Koga replies, "A ninja will never rest until he reached his goals."

"Well, if that's what you want, then let it be. And have you ever consider going home to see your daughter Janine again?"

Koga thought for a while, it had been a long time since he saw her. He told her that he would return once he found his master. That was the last time he saw her, and he heard nothing about her besides the fact she is still alive and well. He finally spoke, "My daughter is probably training hard to become a ninja master at this moment. I think I will return to her once she reached her goal."

Suddenly, they hear some shouting and screaming. They turn to see two frightened hikers running towards them, shouting for help.

"What's the matter?" Bruno asks them. "You two shouldn't come into our training ground just like this!"

"Run for your lives!" the hiker tells him. "A monster! A terribly HUGE monster!"

"A monster?" asks Koga curiously. "What have you been smoking?"

"We're serious!" the other hiker tells him. "We enter a cave and saw what we believe was a new Pokemon, so we tried to catch it. Now it's awake and it's angry!"

Then the ground starts shaking a bit and the two hikers run off screaming again. "What's wrong with them?" wonders Bruno. "And what's the earthquake just now?"

Koga calls out his Crobat and says to it, "Go fly in that direction and check on it. Come and report to me what you see." The Crobat nods and flies off in the direction the hiker came running to them.

The two elites waited, and then there was a shaking on the ground again. The Crobat finally returned in great panic. "Can it be true that the hikers said there is a monster approaching?" asks Koga.

"We better go check by ourselves," insists Bruno.

The two of them went towards that direction. After some walking, they couldn't believe what they saw—the gigantic spiked monster Anguirus!

"There really is a monster!" exclaims Bruno. "The hikers were telling the truth!"

"I've never seen one this big!" exclaims Koga.

Anguirus did not notice them and keeps moving in one direction. "That direction…" thought Bruno. "It's heading for the Pokemon League!"

"We must stop it or else it might destroy the league!" says Koga.

Bruno calls out all his Pokemon and Koga also called all of his.

"Onix! Wrap around his legs!"

"Venomoth, use Sleep Powder!"

Bruno's Onix tries to wrap up two of Anguirus's massive legs, but he was not long enough to reach both legs. Koga's Venomoth flies to the front of Anguirus and flaps his wings to release sparkling powders into the monster's face. Surprisingly, Anguirus didn't feel sleepy at all! "Unbelievable!" exclaims Koga. "This monster is immune to Sleep Powder! Use Psybeam!"

The Venomoth fires a pink beam at Anguirus and Onix hurls boulders at him. None of those attacks are stopping or hurting Anguirus.

Meanwhile, at the KRAPF headquarter, a soldier reports to Sarge, who is still talking to his audiences, "General, there's a report about a monster appearing in Mt. Silver."

"Really?!" says Sarge in surprise. "We have sent a jet to check on it," says the soldier. "It will show the scene on the screen."

Sarge quickly opens the giant TV screen and it shows Anguirus moving through Mt. Silver's base, towards the Pokemon League. When the Cosmos saw this, they gasp, "Anguirus…"

"That monster is going to the league!" Red cries out. "It will surely destroy it!"

"This cannot be!" Oak says. "The league is a memorable place that has been around for years! It must not be destroyed!"

"Right!" says Green. "If it is destroyed, we can never have another Pokemon League event again!"

"Sent military forces to protect the league at once!" orders Sarge.

Within a few minutes, tanks arrive at the gate of Pokemon League to fight off Anguirus.

Bruno and Koga looks up into the sky and see jets coming. "Those jets are coming to fight the monster!" says Koga.

The jets fire missiles at Anguirus. The missiles impact Anguirus and explode, but Anguirus didn't feel a single pain. Anguirus keeps moving towards the Pokemon League. As it approaches, the tanks fire cannon shells at the monster. "Move back!" yells the commander. "Or it'll step on us!"

The tanks move backwards a bit to avoid getting stepped on. When Anguirus sees the tanks moving back, it pounces forward very fast and crushes the tanks beneath its feet. The jets flew above the monster and bombard it. Anguirus jumps straight up and rams the jet down using his spiked back.

Type 90 Maser Tanks came next. The tanks fire a big blue electric beam at Anguirus. Anguirus roars angrily when the beam blasts him, so he pounces at one of the tanks and crushes it with his foot, followed by swiping the rest of the maser tanks away. More jets came to bomb him, but Anguirus stands up on his hind legs and swats the jets away.

General Sarge watches the battle from the TV. "At this rate, the monster will destroy the Pokemon League…" he says.

And so it is, when Anguirus approached the league, he stands up on his hind legs and slashes away parts of the league. Anguirus starts walking through the league and wrecks the whole place. Everyone at the KRAPF headquarter watches with their jaws dropped as Anguirus tears down the entire Pokemon League.

More tanks came to bomb Anguirus, but their attacks just couldn't scratch the massive monster.

After the entire league has been demolished, Anguirus lets out a loud roar. It then quiets down and crawls behind Mt. Silver and disappears into the caverns.

Bruno and Koga had been watching everything from afar. "The Pokemon League, the place where all the strongest trainers gather…" says Koga. "Has been destroyed… For years it stand as the symbol of Kanto and Johto, but now it is gone…"

"That monster…" wonders Bruno. "What does he have against the league? Did he do this for fun?"

At the KRAPF headquarter, Red sank down into his chair and says, "Darn it! Why must things like these happen?! Why must these monsters destroy everything?! What did we ever do to them!?"

Everyone was silent. "If we don't do something soon," Erika finally spoke up. "Then the entire world will cease to exist. It all started because of human's greed, power, and intelligence. We created things like these, so we must fix it ourselves."

"Don't worry," Sarge calms her. "Mecha Godzilla and Mothra will save us all. With them, we have no fear!"

"But can we ever restore Earth back to how it was?" Erika tells him. "Look at all the damages! Godzilla, Battra, and this monster the Cosmos called Anguirus have caused! Even if Mecha Godzilla and Mothra were to fight them, there will still be more damage caused!"

That night…

Red is back in his home in Pallet Town. He lies on his bed, thinking about all those monsters that attacked the cities. He wonders if Mothra can really save them all. Can Mecha Godzilla be completed on time? These questions troubled his mind. He really believes that his Pokemon has the power to defeat the monsters. Green had told him that everyone's powers have limits, but Red just can't accept that. Memories of rough battles flashed through his mind. The time when Green, Blue, and him battled the genetically fused legendary bird, when he battled and captured Mewtwo, the legendary Ho-Oh and Lugia, and the most fiercest of all, Mask Of Ice. Indeed, those enemies are powerful, but he and his friends were able to defeat them. If they all unite together, the powers will surely push back the monsters.

Under the ocean, a submarine is traveling through the murky ocean depths. "There's something on the radar," says a crewman. "It looks like it's coming for us."

All the crews look out the window. They are all frightened when they see Godzilla swimming towards their submarine! "Get out of here fast!" a crewman screams out. "We're about to be collided by a monster!"

Too late, Godzilla crashes into the submarine and tears through it like a paper. The submarine explodes and the entire crewmen died a terrible death several hundred meters under the sea.

In Crystal's house back in New Bark Town, both the Cosmos awaken from their sleep as if they just had a nightmare. "Did you sense that?" Lora asks Mona. "I sensed it too," she replies.

"It's coming… Godzilla…"
