"All right. Let's wind things down after that with another single match." Mon Ki said as the lights shined down. "This little guy has been the epicenter on the word cute, raised awareness for rodents and is the master of electricity! He is the king of the phrase Pika Pika! One of the 8 originals…Pikachu!" he called out as the mouse came walking in.
"Pika Pika!" Pikachu said as the audience awed at that.
"Oh man… why do I get the feeling we're gonna be accused of animal cruelty during this?" Kazuma asked.
"Well it's the Pokémon mascot and one of the original 151 so...yeah. But don't forget it's no slouch in battle." Subaru said.
"Yes. Pikachu has proven on a lot of occasions to be more than just a cute face." Tsumugi said.
"As for its opponent...we've selected the Dimensional Heroes for this bout. Oh...and it looks like their fighter has been picked." Mon Ki said. "He's the one said to be the protege of the symbol of peace and a rising star with his mysterious power. He is the rising hero in green, Deku. Welcome...Izuku...Midoriya!"
"Okay...this is it." Izuku said as he entered the ring. "No...no hard feelings?"
"Pika!" Pikachu said as he crouched.
"As for our arena...this time...we're going with the Pokémon Stadium!" Mon Ki said as both fighters appeared in the stadium. "Let the battle...begin!"
"Okay...no problem. Maybe I can...whoa!" Izuku said, jumping back as Pikachu went with a Thunderbolt as he moved quickly to keep the young hero in training at bay.
"Yeesh...Pikachu does not mess around." Miles said.
"Yeah...well it is an Electric type and those types do tend to prioritize speed over power." Twilight said.
"Hopefully Deku can pull one over on it." Ochako said.
Izuku continued to dodge the mouse's electrical attacks as it kept moving him towards the edge.
"It's trying to push me over. Gotta counter and fast." Izuku thought. "Let's try this...Delaware Smash…" he said as his gauntlets activated. "Air Force!" he said pushing the mouse back and away from him with a blast of air. "Now it's my turn!" Izuku said as he was quick to go on the counter attack and dealt a number of kicks to the small yellow mouse as he zoomed across the stadium.
"Yeah! That's the way to do it, Midoriya!" Eijiro called out.
"Uh...is it me or is the little mouse thing starting to get more juice?" Kaminari asked as electricity was gathering around Pikachu at an intense rate.
"Pi-Pika….CHUUUUUUUU!" Pikachu yelled as he became a ball of voltage and zipped around the stage at high speed.
"Oh no...that's Volt Tackle!" Twilight said.
Izuku attempted to dodge but was being ramparted by the little mouse until he fell right onto his back as Pikachu came to a stop, some electricity surging through it as it looked tired.
"What's with him?" Mineta asked.
"Volt Tackle has recoil damage after it's been used." Twilight said.
Izuku slowly got back up as Pikachu looked ready to fight.
"Here we go!" Izuku said as both of them charged at one another. "Detroit...SMASH!" he called out as Pikachu's Skull Bash collided with it as a wave of power flowed through the arena.
"Incredible...but...who will be left standing?" Mon Ki asked.
Both fighters wavered for a bit before collapsing. But Izuku knelt down instead of falling.
"And that settles it! The winner of this fight is...DEKU!" Mon Ki called out as the audience cheered.
"Of course he'd win. He's not allowed to lose." Bakugo said. "Cause I'm gonna be number 1 and I need to make sure he doesn't lose."
"Wow...uh...sure." Kaminari said.
"Hopefully he'll be better after a trip to the ER." Jexi said as Izuku was carried off to the infirmary.
"Yeah...meaning we have more chances to see more fights." Mina said.
