Chapter 33

Last time we left our heroines, all four members of Team RWBY have made it to round two of the Mikoto City Pokemon Contest. However, Blake and Ruby are going to be facing each other. Ruby and Blake are going to face each other after the first three rounds. Weiss gets to go first against a member of Team Mystic name, Molly. An elegant girl with wavy long light blue hair, green eyes like a porcelain doll, and wearing a white sundress with a matching hat. The sundress has the logo of Team Mystic on the edges of the skirt with the ribbon on her hat held together with the same logo.

"Alright everybody!" Vivian says to the audience, "Let's get the next round started!"

The audience cheers as they are excited for the next round of the contest. The overhead televisions then show the first match.

"Okay, everyone! For our first competitors, we have two cool elegant young ladies here to see which one is a real beauty in this boiling hot battle!" Vivian is truly excited for this round. "Let's introduce our coordinators!"

At one end of the stage is Molly and walks down so elegantly in her dress. At the other end, Weiss also walks elegantly down to the arena.

"First to my left is, Molly. Who have shown an impressive display of beauty with her grass-type moves from her Ivysaur." The television shows her Ivysaur using vine whip, petal dance, and solar beam as a finishing move to make the petals explode in gold and pink fireworks. "To my right is, Weiss Schnee. With her Amaura's graceful and beautiful display." The television then shows Weiss and Elsa and their graceful use of moves.

"Now let's begin!" Vivian says to the audience with pictures of both coordinators, their points and an empty slot for their pokemon.

Weiss prepares her pokeball and throws, "Go, Oswald!" Oswald, Weiss's Wartortle, spins in his shell with bubbles along with a somersault then lands on one leg with a pose.

Molly prepares her pokeball and throws, "Come on, Ivysaur!" Petals covered Ivysaur's body and it shakes them off and gives a smile while he landed and winks.

"Now here are the rules." Vivian explains to the audience as well as the coordinators. "You need to do more than just attack. You also need to impress the audience while fighting. If your opponent dodges, evades, or does a direct attack to your pokemon while being stylish, you loose points. You have three minutes. If the timer runs out, the coordinator with the most remaining points is the winner. BEGIN!"

Molly went first, "Ivysaur, use vine whip!" Ivysaur unleashes two vines straight at Oswald.

"Use aqua tail to dodge!" Weiss ordered. Oswald uses his aqua tail move out of the way of the vine whips and hovers all around the field. Molly lost some of her points after that.

"Use petal dance!" Molly ordered. Ivysaur unleashes a torrent of petals at Oswald as it does a dance. That did cost Weiss some points but not as much as Molly did.

However, Weiss ordered, "Use rapid spin!" Oswald uses rapid spin towards the petals and the petals scattered around Oswald. Then, the petals started swirling around him which created a tornado of petals. What follows next is that the petals followed the spinning shell that hit Ivysaur. This cause Molly to lose a lot of points.

"Ivysaur, use solar beam!" Ivysaur gathers sunlight over its flower. Using solar beam will cost some points since solar beam take some time. While still using rapid spin, Oswald spins out of control and ended up poking his head out and eats the gathered energy by accident.

"What the-?!" Molly went along with Ivysaur as Oswald ate the gathered energy. What happens next was Oswald's body started to glow as the energy makes his shell sparkle and his tail shine. We've all seen grass-type pokemon and ice-type pokemon eating their orbs of energy in the show. But a water-type eating a grass-type move? Now that is something unexpected. With an unexpected twist, Molly lost almost all her points.

"Don't know what's going on, but I'll take it." Weiss says to herself before giving the order. "Use rapid spin!" Oswald uses rapid spin as streams of energy comes out of the holes of his shell before dealing the final blow. With only 1 minute and 30 seconds left on the clock, Ivysaur has feinted and Molly lost all her points.

"We have a winner! Weiss Schnee and her Wartortle wins!" Vivian says in her microphone. "That was a stunning and unexpected finish!"

Jordan leaps up from his chair, all excited, "That. Was. Incredible!"

Then Mr. Sukizo went, "Remarkable."

Then Nurse Joy, "That was an unexpected and incredible match. Never thought I see a grass-type move being used like that by a water-type. Not to mention, his coordinator knows how to take advantage of the situation."

The audience applause at Weiss's victory. Weiss smiles as she recalls Oswald and walks back to the dressing room. Up next is Yang, who is prepare for this along with her pokemon she has chosen. Her opponent is a typical male Poke Fan name Gabe. He wears the wears a yellow t-shirt with a black vest with a Pikachu on it, jeans with a black belt, and black shoes with white bottoms.

"Now here comes Yang Xiao Long who won the first stage with her Monferno. And here comes a pokemon fan, Gabe, who got to the second stage thanks to his Alolan Sandshrew. Let's see what do they have up in their sleeves."

Gabe pulls out his pokeball while saying, "Go, Groillum!" A Groillum comes out with lightning out of the pokeball then poses while lightning tickles its flexing muscles.

Blake pulls out her megadex. "Groillum. The gorilla pokemon and the evolve form of Groilla. Groillum are far more confident than their prior evolution. They enjoy teasing Groilla and stealing their fruits." (This pokemon is from Pokemon Solar Light and Lunar Dark. It is both grass-type and fighting-type.)

Yang then pulls out her pokeball and once she opens it, a shadow started to coil around her hand, then her body, and then turns into a scary looking shadow. A shadow of a pokemon. The shadow takes form and it turns out to be Hunter the Haunter who surprise everyone by being scary first then goes 'surprise' with confetti.

With both pokemon out, Vivian gives the signal, "Begin!"

"Groillum, use razor leaf!" Groillum does some ballet twirls as razor leafs are being shot at Hunter.

"Hunter, dodge and use confuse ray!" Hunter twirls around dancer-style to avoid getting hit by the razor leaves. Then starts juggling his golden orbs to toss it right at Groillum. It hit, and now Groillum is confused.

"Oh no!" Gabe says as Groillum is now confused. Gabe lost 36% of his points while Yang only lost 12%.

"Alright Hunter, use both shadow punch and sucker punch!" Hunter uses sucker punch on Groillum's stomach then uses shadow punch on its head. With that, Groillum is instantly defeated.

"Yang is the winner! And only 2 minutes and 35 seconds to spare. Record timing."

Yang just look at her victory with an astonished look and goes, "I won already?"

Her victory was quick and bittersweet. She hoped to do something a bit more flashy like Weiss did. But she decides to take the victory anyway.

After another round went by, it is Ruby and Blake's turn to fight against each other. Two best friends and teammates who are now going to face each other in combat. Who will win and proceed to the next round? Will it be Ruby? Or will it be Blake? Find out next time. Stay tune!
