The crowd cheered as Matthias met his opponent at the arena.
"Let's get ready for our first battle of the tournament Matthias vs Kyle. But before that let me announce the rules it's going to be a 1 on 1 battle, No items held or otherwise can be used and only 1st and 2nd Stage pokemon are allowed. For further information check the tournament rules book" The announcer said.
"With that out of the way, let us begin" he said.
The crowd cheered.
"Folia get in there" Kyle threw his pokeball revealing a Lombre.
"Prism display your might" Matthias threw his pokeball revealing a porygon.

"A porygon, interesting" I said.
"Yes they're quite rare and expensive" The guy next to me said.

"Begin" The announcer said.
"Folia Water gun now" Kyle said.
Folia shot a jet of water towards prism.
"Dodge and use agility prism" Matthias retaliated.
Prism managed to dodge the jet of water as a glow surrounded it making it faster.
"Now Prism get in close and go for a psybeam" Matthias took the initiative.
Prism went for the attack shooting a purple ray towards Folia.
"Folia counter with fake out" Kyle said.
Folia vanished as it appeared before porygon using it's two hands to land the flinching move causing Prism to stop it's Psybeam.
"Nice try but we're not done yet, Prism go for another Psybeam" Matthias spoke.
Prism quickly charged up a psybeam that managed to connect with Folia.
"Folia water gun" Kyle replied.
Folia heard the command but shot the water gun at the ground.
"Oh it semms that Folia is confused" the announcer spoke.
"That was a good battle but it's time to end it. Prism psybeam" Matthias roared.
Prism followed the command unleashing a psybeam at the Lombre which unfortunately couldn't retaliate. It created a cloud of smoke which cleared a moment later revealing the Lombre to have fainted.
"Folia has fainted the winner is Matthias and prism" The announcer said.
"Of course I would win" he said waving as the crowd cheered for him.

"So how did you like it?" Matthias said sitting next to me.
"It was interesting for sure" I said.
"Great, I'd talk to you more but I might as well get prism checked" he said pointing to the porygon.
"Yeah, see you later" I said.
After he left. I checked my bag for any books that would have anything about absol's current moveset since I had forgotten them. I came across a letter by my father which detailed absol's current move set. 'With this I'm good to go,except I wish I didn't have to fight in front of such a huge crowd' I thought.
I watched the next couple of matches some were close with almost anyone winning, others were completely one sided from the beginning either due to sheer skill or lack of it. I did miss a couple of them though since I was trying to come up with a strategy.
Since it followed the anime style of battles, i'd just have to wing it.
'Absol's have a good attack stat so maybe I sh-" my thoughts were interrupted by the person next to me
"Hey they announced your name" He said as my heartbeat almost stopped.
'Damn it I always did have stage fright but' I thought.
"Yeah I'll be sure to win it" I said. Honestly though I wasn't sure how this was going to turn out.
