The Beautiful Bugs

One day, Elite Four member Aaron invited me to Eterna Forest for a friendly rematch. Dawn tagged along. Cheryl and Gardenia were also present.

He called out a Yanmega. I called out my Infernape. Infernape outmaneuvered Yanmega and knocked it out with only one Flamethrower attack.

He sent out a Scizor. Infernape easily outmaneuvered Scizor and knocked it out with one Flamethrower.

He called out a Vespiquen. Infernape outmaneuvered Vespiquen easily and knocked it out with a single Rock Slide attack.

He sent out a Heracross. I recalled Infernape and sent out my Staraptor. Staraptor's Intimidate Ability activated.

This lowered Heracross' attack. Staraptor easily outsped Heracross and knocked it out with only one Brave Bird move. The move's recoil damaged Staraptor in the process.

He called out a Flygon. I recalled Staraptor and called out my Mismagius. Mismagius outmaneuvered Flygon and hit it with a Dazzling Gleam attack. This did a fair amount of damage.

Flygon struck back with a Dragon Pulse attack. This also did a respectable amount of damage. Mismagius hit Flygon with another Dazzling Gleam and knocked it out.

He sent out a Drapion. I recalled Mismagius and sent Infernape back out. Infernape outsped Drapion and hit it with an Earthquake move. This did a lot of damage.

Drapion struck back with its own Earthquake. This also did much damage. Infernape hit Drapion with another Earthquake and knocked it out.

"I will now concede defeat, but I think you came to see how great Bug-type Pokémon can be," he said.
