Episode 9: 1st Hurdle! The 100 trainer test!
After 3 weeks Ash and Pikachu have arrived on Akala Island in order to face their 1st challenge to stay at the academy during those weeks Ash has had many adventures, he had caught a wild Litten that he had seen around the markets with an old Stoutland but after it had sadly passed away it was pretty sad but Ash and Pikachu managed to cheer it up and catch it, he also caught the Rockruff that was always with Prof. Kukui as it turns out it was a wild Pokémon that just liked to stay with him but after 1 night where it sneaked out to get stronger by defeating a Wild Magmar that was the strongest of a ring of wild Pokémon and with the help of Ash it not only was able to learn Rock Throw but was able to win against the wild Magmar it had struggled to defeat. Ash and Pikachu had helped Lillie with her fear of Pokémon when she was entrusted with an egg which hatched into a Alolan Vulpix and after a some time she was able to touch her Vulpix, it was the next day he meet her older brother Gladion who was having a battle against a trainer and his Blastoise with his Midnight Lycanroc, Ash had a battle with him and lost but he learned that was also a student at the Academy and was in his 2nd year as a Diamond Blue when asked why he wasn't wearing the blazer he said that he liked his outfit much better and chose not to wear it but always has his blazer in his room and has a photo of him wearing it on his Pokégear to show people if they don't believe him and wished him and Pikachu luck as he left. Now after 3 weeks of training they were ready for whatever obstacle in front of him.
"Well Pikachu you ready?" Ash asked his partner.
"Pikachu!" It said with confidence.
"Alright then let's go." Said Ash as he headed towards the place all the 1st year students are supposed to go with Kukui leading the way.
After being lead by Kukui Ash and Pikachu made it to the Ruins of Life where all the other 1st year students have gathered to hear what would be the 1st challenge.
Prof. Oak was standing in front of the entrance with Kukui and the Kahuna of the Island Olivia.
"Welcome students, today will be where reveal the test location for all the students in the battle course. Once that test is complete the location for the Coordinators will be revealed so until then they are free to watch the Trainers. Now then allow me to have Kahuna Olivia explain to you all what you'll be doing here and what will be your 1st challenge." Said Prof. Oak.
"Thank you." Said Olivia. "All right starting today for an entire week you all will be staying here in Akala and go through challenges that will show whether or not you all are good enough to remain in your academy. So by the time this week is over at least half of you will be gone and to give you motivation any and all of you who make it through the week will be eligible to partake in my Island Trial which when completed allows you to battle me in my Grand Trial and should you defeat me will get one of these."
Olivia raised her arm and showed everyone her Z-Ring and Z-Crystal making everyone look in awe.
"These are a Z-Ring and Z-Crystal which will allow you to use a Z-Move which will allow to unleash a super powerful attack."
This information made everyone present hyped up and ready to begin.
Seeing how everyone was excited she decided that now would be the time to strike the fear into their hearts by announcing their 1st challenge.
"Alright settle down now time to announce your 1st challenge" Said Olivia as she pointed her index finger at the volcano in the distance. "tomorrow everyone one of you will need to climb up to the peak of that volcano by the end of the day and on your way up the volcano there will be thousands upon thousands of Ace Trainers and Veterans to stop you and 100 of of those trainers will be assigned to battle each of you, in other words to pass each of you will need to battle and defeat 100 trainers non-stop with no breaks you may also use only 1 Pokemon throughout this challenge should you switch your Pokemon during or in between the battles will automatically fail and be expelled and will be sent back home in addition should your Pokemon be defeated by your opponent's Pokemon, as collateral damage from another persons battle, or give up due to you or your Pokemon being unable to continue you fail and will be expelled This will be known as the 100 trainer test! Finally you may not use any use any healing items you have on you so pick your Pokemon carefully and we'll see you all tomorrow."
Everyone watched as Olivia and the others walked away but not before they all saw Olivia fall flat on her face quickly making everyone present sweat drop at that before they all began to think what Pokemon to choose.
Ash and Pikachu were fired up ready to get the challenge under way
Paul merely shrugged his shoulders as he walked away, he had no doubt that he will be able to complete this knowing which Pokemon to use.
Alain clenched his fist in anticipation waiting for the test to start already.
Sawyer began to write in his notebook formulating a strategy on how he can do with what Pokemon.
Barry was planning on just pushing through.
Many other of Ash's rivals and friends were planning on what to do.
The next day everyone was prepared and ready to overcome this hurdle as they stood in front of the entrance to Wela Volcano Park.
Oak, Kukui and Olivia were also at the entrance.
"Alright is everybody ready?" Asked Prof. Oak.
Upon seeing everyone nod their head Kukui decided to start. "Alright then Extreme Speed your way through this and reach the top!"
At this everyone started to release the Pokemon they've chosen and began to run up.
Ash had chosen Greninja to do this with it's speed they would be able to storm through, unfortunately he had to leave Pikachu with Prof. Oak so that there wouldn't be any accusations of cheating, as they ran up an Ace Trainer appeared ahead and blocked his path with a Shifttry.
"Shiftry use Leaf Blade don't let them pass!"
Ash without stopping immediately called a counter attack. "Greninja block with Night Slash then use Aerial Ace!"
"Ninja!"
Greninja then created a kunai made of water with tips glowing black and blocked the incoming attack before back flipping and delivering a series of hits with Aerial Ace knocking it out.
"Alright 1 down let's get this show on the road." Cheered Ash as he and Greninja continued they're way.
Meanwhile some of Ash's other rivals were making progress as well
Paul had chosen his Electivire despite not being speedy at first he knew this would work in favor as such when a Veteran appeared with a Raichu.
"Raichu use Thunderbolt!" Said the Veteran.
This made both Paul and Electivire smirk as the attack hit and with boosted speed quickly knocked it's foe out with a Brick Break to the head.
"Hmph" Was all Paul said.
"Sceptile use Leaf Blade!" Said Sawyer as he was facing both a Poliwrath and a Golem.
"Sceeeptiiile!"
The attack was as quick as it came instantly knocked out it's opponent.
"That's 2 down no time to make notes gotta keep moving."
"Serperior Dragon Tail!" Said Trip"
His partner's attack hit beating a Pidgeot.
Hours have passed since Ash and Greninja started after defeating countless of trainers the sun was burning bright hot when Ash checked his wrist which had a scorekeeper that was given to all participants and it showed that his next battle would be the 69th battle.
"Ngh gotta keep going just a little bit more" Said Ash as he was drenched in sweat struggling to keep running.
Greninja was also begin to feel tired after going through so many battles but it and Ash were never going to give up until the end.
As the duo kept going another trainer appeared with a Kangaskhan
"Greninja use Water Shuriken! and then knock it out with Aerial Ace" Said Ash.
Greninja then threw a large number shurikens before landing a blow on the Kangaskhan's head defeating it.
by the time he reached his next opponent the heat had gotten to Ash and he fell to 1 knee as he began to breath heavily.
His opponent showed concern on his condition.
"Hey kid you alright?"
Ash didn't answer him as rain clouds began to appear and began to pour down on them.
Ash then stood back up as he and Greninja began to look up and stare into the cloudy sky.
"He's letting the rain cool him down." His opponent realized as he watched Ash.
Ash then looked back towards his opponent both him and Greninja now more ready than ever.
"Let's Go! I'm barley getting started!" Said Ash
At that moment something seemed to have fallen from out of the rain and into his Ash's hand as he caught it which then made the rain stop and the clouds went away revealing the bright sun shining.
"Let's go daylights burning" Said Ash as his opponent released a Flygon.
"Gekkouga Motto motto tsuyoku! Ikuze!"
Greninja then transformed into Ash-Greninja.
"What is that!?" Said his opponent.
"Mizu Shuriken!"
"Kouga!"
Greninja then threw the shuriken on it's back at it's opponent knocking it out.
"Gekkouga motto motto hayaku!" Said Ash as he and Greninja pressed on.
One by one Ash and Greninja were deafeating opponents left and right each with only a single move.
"TSUGI WA DAREDAAAA!" Screamed Ash after he defeated another opponent with Ash-Greninja sweat beginning to fall off his face.
Ash was nearing the peak of the volcano after defeating 97 trainers and he was exhausted breathing heavily.
"Greninja can you keep going?" Asked Ash between breaths.
"Kkouga!" It said nodding it's head despite being near exhausted itself.
"Three more. So close!" Said Ash
Despite his words Ash was having trouble even standing up now much less walk or run.
"I can't lose this now, not at this stage! Our spirit isn't broken yet! I'm still in this!"
"Words to live by" Said a voice.
when Ash looked to see who it was he saw three trainers with a Mega-Steelix, a Mega-Agron, and a Mega-Blaziken.
"You will face the three of us all at once." Said the trainer with the Mega-Blaziken.
At the top Oak,Pikachu,Kukui, and Olivia were watching Ash's last battle through a tablet monitor.
Olivia then turned to Oak and Kukui.
"Hey guys what's your reasoning for making everyone face against opponents like these?" Asked Olivia
"Just you wait and see." Said Oak.
"It's the only way to push him to the limit." Said Kukui
Pika Pika Said Pikachu worried for his best friend.
Back where Ash is his opponents had decided to make this quick.
"Flash Cannon!' "Metal Sound!" "Flamethrower!"
The attacks were quick that Greninja only had time to block it and cross his arms with Ash mimicking him.
"Gargh!" Said Ash in pain as Greninja was face down on the ground.
"It's not over!" said Ash as Greninja got back up.
"No way we're gonna back down from a fight!" Said Ash.
It was then a blue glow came from inside Ash's pocket.
"Huh?" Said Ash as when he reached into it and pulled out what looked like a Z-Crystal.
"Leleeee~" Came a Pokemon's voice.
Ash and Greninja looked up and saw what looked like a Pokemon with a black upper body and head with a few small white markings. Its eyes are blue with a pink line through the middle of each iris. Below each eye is a curved white line and above each is a curved pink line separated into three segments. On its upper body is another, thicker curved white line. Its thin arms have digit-less hands and puffy pink bracelets on each wrist. On top of its head is a mass of dark pink, tentacle-like hair. Two longer strands of hair frame its face. Encasing its dark pink lower body and on top of its head is a shell resembling an insect. It reminded Ash of Tapu Koko.
Oak, Pikachu and the others had a look of shock in their face as they saw the Guardian Deity of Akala Island.
"Isn't that... Said Kukui
"Tapu Lele!" Finished Olivia
Back to Ash Tapu Lele began to scatter glowing scales around Ash and Greninja as it healed them of any exhaustion they had as it then floated in front of them.
Kukui had told Ash the names of all the Island Deities in the case he saw one "Thank you so much Tapu Lele." Said Ash.
"Lele!" It said with a smile as it used it's psychic powers to switch the Z-Crystal Ash had with the one glowing in this hand.
"You want me to use a Z-move?" Asked Ash to which he got a nod in response. "OK then Let's do this!"
It was then the Z-Crystal began to glow even brighter enveloping itself in water before dispersing.
Everyone except Tapu Lele was shocked to see that the Z-Crystal evolved as it now looked like a shuriken with the front face of Ash-Greninja.
After Tapu Lele sent mental images on what poses to do Ash crossed his arms in an X.
"Gekkouga!"
"Kkouga!" It said mimicking Ash.
Ash began to do the normal poses for a Water-Type at first but then instead of moving his arms like a wave of water he reached to his back and then acted like he grabbed something from it holding it as the Z-Energy surrounded Greninja who's red fins were beginning to glow.
"Motto. Motto motto tsuyaku." Ash said as he raised his arm up with his palm facing sky.
"Gekkou!" It said as it raised the shuriken up into the air as it did transforming it into a giant shuriken like in the Kalos League only a light blue color instead of orange.
"Gekkouga Haidoro Shuriken!" Said Ash as he made a throwing motion.
"KKOUGAAAAA!" It said as it threw the Shuriken hitting all 3 of it's opponents creating a giant explosion.
Ash and the 3 trainers had to cover their eyes as the explosion occurred.
When the smoke cleared it showed all 3 opposing Pokemon reverted back into their normal forms with swirls in their eyes.
Greninja then reverted back to normal as it and Ash became exhausted from using such a strong Z-Move.
"W-we did it." Said Ash as he jumped for joy. "We did it!"
Tapu Lele then flew back into the sky.
Ash looked at his Z-Ring and saw that the Z-Crystal was back to looking like a normal one, deciding not to think to much about it he and Greninja continued their way to the top.
By the time Ash had reached the top he saw many other students and all his rivals have completed the challenge and saw that the Professors and Olivia waiting for him.
"Congratulations Ash You and Greninja have completed the 100 trainer test." Said Oak
Pikachu jumped towards Ash congratulating him and Greninja for finishing.
Ash and Greninja than gave out a triumphant yell as they then fell flat on their backs tired beyond belief.
AAAnd Done! That's it for this episode man Ash is just full of surprises. I decided to give Ash the ability to evolve Z-Crystals as it is something he definitely does in the anime with his Electrium Z to Pikashium Z so I decided to give him a a special crystal for him and Greninja
