Chapter 10: The First Fight! Part 2
Dawn shook her head, managing to get over her shock.
"Sora, to simply understand Pokemon is an amazing ability not seen for years. But to speak it? That's a whole other ability that's even rarer! I've heard tales that each region has a gym leader who can understand Pokemon, but none who could speak the language. The last human to speak Pokemon perfectly and fluent was over 400 years ago!" she said. Sora looked mildly surprised, and looked at Paine, who smiled at him.
Not a bad ability, huh Sora? Could be pretty useful finding your friends she thought to him, and he nodded, agreeing with his starter and friend.
"So, what shall we do now? I'm in the mood for a fight." said Cyrus, sparking and crackling as electricity sparked along his body. It was at that moment that all present were interrupted by a voice.
"Hey! You! Spiky hair!" called a young girl, younger then Sora, as she ran up "I challenge you to a Pokemon battle!" she said, panting softly as she stopped a few feet from him.
"You want to fight me?" he asked, pointing to himself. She nodded, readying a pokeball
"My name is Cassie, and your gonna go down!" she said, flicking her pink sundress, her bracelets holding her two pokeballs. She was wearing yellow sandals, and her eyes were a sparkling emerald green. Before Sora could decide, Cyrus stood before him, ready to fight as he sparked. Sora nodded, and readied himself.
"Your on! My name is Sora, and you wont win easily!" he said in response. She grinned, and tossed her pokeball into the air, watching it open and release a light.
"Kricketot! Time to face the music!" she called, watching as her first Pokemon, a bug looking Pokemon that was red with a large tan collar and shirt like front, like a maestro of an orchestra. Its head was topped by two antennae, black as night, which matched its hands and feet. It let out a soft whistle, and looked at Cyrus with determination. Cyrus grinned, sparking more "i cant wait for this!" he said with a battle cry.
" Kricketot, use Tackle!" called Cassie. The bug Pokemon lunged at Cyrus, who nimbly dodged, and watched it fall to the ground.
"Cyrus! Thunderwave, go!" said Sora, having learned of Cyrus's moves earlier. Cyrus nodded, then landed in front of the downed bug, and sent a large Shockwave at it. The attack struck dead on, and electricity flowed over its body as it got up, wincing as it made its way back a couple feet. As it moved, it would stop as more electricity moved along its body.
"Kricketot! Oh dear...try and use tackle again!" Cassie called out, her bravado gone seeing her Pokemon in a bad spot. The bug Pokemon nodded, and again lunged at Cyrus, only to be caught in another electric spasm and miss the Shinx by a good foot, falling on its face.
"Cyrus, quick, use Crunch!" Sora said, not giving up the advantage. Cyrus went in close, his jaws opening as he buried them in the bugs carapace, damaging it greatly before tossing it back at Cassie. Both Pokemon and trainer fell down, and Cassie looked in horror to see her Pokemon fainted in her arms. Dawn, who had decided to referee the match, held up an arm towards Sora.
"Kricketot is unable to battle, Cyrus wins! Trainers, please send out your next Pokemon." she said as Sora returned Cyrus with a large goofy grin on his face. Cassie, however, wasn't looking to pleased as she tossed out her next Pokemon "Rhyhorn, lets rock to the beat!" she said, releasing her second Pokemon. It was a large, short stature Pokemon, gray like boulders, with a large horn on its nose and spines down its back. Each step shook the ground slightly, and Sora could tell it was really heavy. It gave a loud growl, and stamped its feet, raring to go.
"Come on, I can take anything this wimps got!" the Rhyhorn said in a feminine voice. Sora grinned, saying nothing as he tossed his other pokeball.
"Paine! Lets show them the power of our hearts!" he said, and with an explosion of sparkling bubbles and light, Paine landed in front of him, ready for a fight, a fire in her eyes. The sight of the shiny starter Pokemon caught Cassie off guard, but she quickly recovered, shaking her head.
"Rhyhorn! Use Tackle!" she called out. The large female stamped her feet, and charged, being much faster then her large form suggested, catching Paine off guard in surprise, striking her with the horn on her nose, sending her flying backwards, causing a small ditch in the dirt.
"Paine!" cried Sora in shock, then ran over to her "you OK?" he asked her, helping her out of the hole, since she had been struck with so much power as to have her legs and lower body stuck in the ground. She nodded, and jumped forward, ready for another shot. Sora nodded, and returned to a safe distance behind her.
"Alright then, you want to play rough? Paine! Use Shining Water gun!" he said, and Paine grinned, running forward, then leaped high into the air, and vanished into the light of the sun. both Cassie and Rhyhorn tried to spot her, but only Rhyhorn saw her at the last second, too late to avoid the powerful Water Gun attack that slammed into her face, slamming her into the ground with a grunt. Paine landed on the ground types back, adding insult to injury as she leaped backwards, landing in front of Sora with a smirk.
"whoa..." Cassie said softly, then shook her head "Rhyhorn! Are you OK?" she asked, and smiled in relieve as she received a grunt from her pokemon as the female stood up on slightly shaky legs "Good! Use Magnitude!" she called out, shifting her feet to give her steady balance. Upon hearing what was a bout to happen, both Niji and Dawn followed suit, leaving Sora and Paine to look confused. Sora suddenly imagined a large shockwave of earth rolling at them, unsure of what made him think of it as he turned to his pokemon.
"Quick! Use Water Gun to fling yourself up!" he called just as Rhyhorn slammed her front two feet on the ground, sending an immensely powerful shockwave of earth straight at them. Paine nodded, and fired her attack straight down, going straight up as the ground attack got closer. It clipped her, but she still cleared most of the attack and avoided further injury. Sora simply dodge rolled out of the way, coming up with his hand in a summoning position..and remembered that he wasnt fighting any Heartless at the moment...and stood up, brushing himself off as Paine landed beside him.
"Whoa! Never seen anyone dodge it like that!" Cassie said in amazement. This didnt stand long as Sora then pointed at her.
"Paine, use Whirlpool." he said, and the Shiny Piplup smiled as she ran towards Rhyhorn, and stopped short of him as she fired a large vortex of water at her. She controlled the water expertly as it swallowed up the ground rock pokemon, and flung her straight up in the air. Cassie could only watch in horror as her pokemon went flying, then came back down with a crash, creating a shockwave and a cloud of dust. When it cleared, it was obvious who the winner was.
"Rhyhorn is unable to battle! The match goes to Sora!" Dawn said with a huge smile.
"YEA!" Sora cheered happily as Paine jumped into his arms, hugging him happily.
As they celebrated, Cassie sighed, and returned her pokemon, approached him, and extended her hand.
"thanks for such an amazing match." she said, smiling.
