Chapter 88: Like Fire Types, Cinnabar Fire Types

It was time for my Seafoam Island Gym Battle. I surfed on over.

It was just a Gym. No puzzles. There I met Blaine. "Welcome young one" he told me. "It is my duty to give the Champion a heated match".

Blaine started with Magcargo and I started with Suicune. Magcargo was basically a Slugma with a rock shell on its back.

Magcargo

212

Fire/Rock Type

Lava Pokémon

2'07" (0.8 m)

121.3 lbs (55 kg)

Its brittle shell occasionally sprouts intense flames that circulate throughout its body.

Evolved from Slugma at Lv 38.

Suicune used BubbleBeam, but it missed. Magcargo came back with Smog. Suicune was poisoned. Suicune used BubbleBeam and knocked out Magcargo in one.

Next up Blaine used Magmar. Suicune used BubbleBeam which hit. Magmar wasn't quite knocked out though. Magmar used ThunderPunch. It was a Critical Hit and did a lot to Suicune. Suicune used BubbleBeam and finished Magmar.

Finally Blaine used Rapidash

Rapidash

202

Fire Type

Fire Horse Pokémon

5'07" (1.7 m)

209.4 lbs (95 kg)

With incredible acceleration, it reaches its top speed of 150 mph after running just 10 steps.

Evolved from Ponyta at Lv 40.

I recalled Suicune and sent out Golem. Rapidash used Fire Blast, but Golem barely felt it. Golem used Earthquake, winning me the match.

"Congratulations" Blaine said. "You really overheated me this match. This is the Volcano Badge".

That night, I looked at my Badges. One more to go.

Cinnabar Island looked really sad. The Pokémon Centre miraculously survived when it erupted, but everyone else had to evacuate.

"You were right". I looked up to see Mewtwo. "So. It seems humans don't always tell lies". I thanked Mewtwo for saving me in the Whirl Islands. After all, that was the last time it met me.

"Ethan. I have helped you, now you must help me." He pointed up to a large mountain. "That is Mt Silver. I want you to ascent it after you get your final Badge. It doesn't have to be immediately afterwards. You will need lots of training. You will know what you need to do once you get there."

With that, Mewtwo went off.

My plan was set.
