Chapter 66: Alakazam the Greatest

With cyber shenanigans out the way, it was time to take on the Saffron Gym.

To get around the Gym, I needed to step on warp tiles which would send me to a different room. This was very stressful as more often than not, a Trainer would battle me and weaken my Pokémon. This would force me to find the warp tile taking my back outside to heal at the Pokémon Centre only to continue the cycle.

Eventually I reached the Gym Leader. Her name was Sabrina. She had long black hair and wore a black and red dress. "I sense that this battle will be one for the ages" Sabrina mentioned. "Let's begin this!"

Sabrina started with Espeon and I started with Togetic. Espeon used Quick Attack on Togetic. Togetic came back with Shadow Ball. That did a lot to Espeon. Espeon came back with Psychic. Togetic was really hurt by that. Togetic used another Shadow Ball which knocked out Espeon.

I switched out Togetic for Graveler as Sabrina used Mr Mime. Mr Mime used Reflect. This would be annoying. Graveler used Earthquake, which did half damage because of the Reflect put up. Mr Mime then used Psychic. This hit Graveler for quite a bit. Graveler came back with Earthquake. Mr Mime wasn't going down. Mr Mime used another Psychic which finished off Graveler.

I sent out Typhlosion to use Flame Wheel. It hit Mr Mime and fainted it.

Finally Sabrina used Alakazam.

Alakazam

091

Psychic Type

Psi Pokémon

4'11" (1.5 m)

105.8 lbs (48 kg)

Its brain cells multiply continually until it dies. As a result, it remembers everything.

Evolved from Kadabra after trading which in turn evolves from Abra at Lv 16.

Alakazam used Psychic. This did a super amount of damage on Typhlosion, through Typhlosion did come back with a Flame Wheel. Alakazam finished off Typhlosion with another Psychic.

The Reflect wore off that turn. Togetic was sent out, but Alakazam used Psychic and knocked it out.

Venomoth was next. Venomoth used Sludge Bomb. However, Alakazam used Recover which helped it gain back most of the health it lost. Venomoth used Sludge Bomb again but Alakazam used Psychic and Venomoth fell.

This Alakazam was strong. Then it hit me; how about I give Sabrina a taste of her own medicine? I sent out Ampharos. Alakazam used Future Sight. Ampharos used Light Screen. "What?" Sabrina shouted. "I didn't foresee this!" Alakazam's Psychic only did half damage! Ampharos used ThunderPunch which almost knocked out Alakazam. Alakazam used Psychic which of course didn't do a lot. Ampharos finished with FirePunch!

"Congratulations" Sabrina said. "Alakazam is one of the strongest Pokémon and you took it down. No wonder you are the Champion. Here is the Marsh Badge".

I now had my second Badge. I guess my next stop would be Celadon as that is basically an hour walk from Saffron. I would take on another Gym tomorrow hopefully.
