"Pokémon attack"
'Thoughts'
"Telepathy"
My friend Zylus helped name my OC's, and he helped with the teams.
Disclaimer: I don't own Pokémon (sadly), but my OC's that's all I own. Now time for The Revenge of Ash. P.S. There will be some swearing, just a warning.
As the sun rose up in the Lilly of the Valley Conference, sending the merchants into action as they set up their stalls. In the forest a stood a man with a black cloak with a 2 sparring Lucarios and two other men. "You gotta focus if you want to tap into your aura Dean."
Dean once again closes his eyes and took a deep breath, he opens his right hand and visualized an aura sphere forming in his hand. When he looked he noticed that he had indeed started to form one. "I did it," he says excitedly, "I did it."
"Now," Ash tells the brown haired male, "Focus onto steadying it."
However Dean was to exited and his aura sphere started to crackle and shake in his hand. "What," he's cut off when it shoots forward on its own and flies in an erratic fashion in the direction of the market stalls.
"Crap," Ash mumbles under his breath before shooting his own at it causing it to explode.
"We'll work on that later Dean," Ash says.
Dean looks at the ground in disappointment, "Come on Lucario," one of the bipedal Pokémon walks forward and taps on the pokeball on Deans waist.
"How'd it go bud," Ash asks his own Lucario.
"It went ok master," Lucario responds, "but he's still struggling to control his aura.".
"So is Dean," Ash says, "And I thought I said to quit calling me master."
Lucario smirks before returning itself to the pokeball.
Ash sighs and walks over to the two Kalos natives, "You guys ready?"
"Yeah," the respond.
"I think match ups should be up by now," Zep says, "if not now, then soon."
"Let's go then."
-X-
After reaching the Pokémon center Ash and Dean left their Lucarios with Nurse Joy for them to be checked out. "Morning boys," Cynthia says walking in with Chloe.
"Mornin Cynthia," The two Kalos natives say.
"Morning babe," Ash says with a smile as he hugs his 'daughter'.
"Your Lucario are fine," Nurse Joy says with a smile, "they just need some rest is all."
"Thank you," the two reply.
"Battle match ups are now being shown in the lobby," Joy says.
They nod and head out, Dean smiles but then frowns seeing his matchups.
"What's wrong?" Chloe asks.
"I'm happy because I get to fight Brock," he responds, "but that's the only battle I have today."
"I get to battle Misty," Zep responds with a smirk.
"Destroy them," Ash says darkly, "they hurt the worst."
"You got it Ash," they say determinedly.
Slowly their friends join them and check their match ups.
"Looks like you have a little while before your battle today Dean," Max says.
"Let's to get some breakfast," he says with a smile.
Ash laughs, "Let's go then."
-X-
"That was some good food," Dean says patting his stomach.
"I'll agree there," Zep says,
"Well we better hurry if we don't want to be late for your battle," Cynthia says.
They walk over and Dean and Zep talk strategies, "So I plan to use Kirlia to get some more experience."
"The one Ash gave you?"
Dean nods, "I think after this battle I'll evolve him if he's ready."
"That'll definitely be good experience," Zep says with a smirk.
"And if I defeat him with a little Kirlia," Dean smirks, "he'll definitely be humiliated. And to help out, I'll try and file him up a bit."
"Just don't do to much," Zep warns, "you don't want to be kicked from the tournament for harassment."
"I won't," Dean says with a smirk and walks into his waiting area while everyone else heads to the stands. He tosses a pokeball and a Pokémon with green legs, and hair, and a white shirt and shirt with red horns appear.
"Kirl?" the Pokémon asks.
"Hey Kirlia," Dean says, "I'm using you for this battle, so I need you be prepared. We're going up against one of the traitors, so the opponent might be stronger, but I'm counting on you to humiliate him. Ok?"
The Pokemon nods with a smile. "Good," he smiles and returns the Pokémon.
-X-
"Let the battle between Brock Stone of Pewter City and Dean of the Kalos Elite Four begin," the ref calls out, "Trainers please send out your Pokemon."
"Crush him Kirlia," Dean says sending out his small Pokemon.
"Go Steelix," Brock says.
"Use Brick Break," Dean says.
"Stop it with Iron Tail," Brock calls out.
"Teleport," Dean says with a smirk.
The little Kirlia disappears as Brock's Steelix slams its tail into the ground.
Kirlia reappears above the metal snake Pokemon's head, smashing its glowing hand into Steelix. The Steelix groans in pain from the hit causing Brock to growl in annoyance.
"Dig," Brock says.
"Keep guard Kirlia," Dean says, "When you think it's coming use Teleport again."
The Steelix appears and tries to slam into the small Pokemon, and manages to hit its leg as it teleported away. "Psychic."
The metal snake is surrounded in a blue hue as it is lifted into the air, "Explode it," Dean says as the hue around Steelix grows brighter before it explodes sending the steel Pokemon to the ground.
Brock growls again seeing his strongest Pokemon getting beaten by a little Kirlia. "What's the matter Brock?" Dean taunts, "to busy thinking about how to get in another girls pants instead of the battle?"
Brock growls "Dig."
"Upset I said that?" Dean asks knowing Kirlia will teleport when needed, "My good buddy Ash, used to tell me about you," Brock flinches and freezes upon hearing that name, "he used to tell me all about your fails at love from Kanto all the way to Sinnoh. It was quite funny, he would also tell me about how he looked up to you like a brother."
Brock growls, then freezes feeling slightly guilty.
"It's a real shame he passed away," Dean says with mock sadness, "I would've liked to congratulate him on his progress during Kalos."
Brock growls knowing that his opponent was just trying to mess with him. "Use Iron Head into Iron Tail."
Before Kirlia can react Steelix appears from the ground in front it smashing its steel head into it's stomach launching it backwards before smashing it once again with it's hardened tail. Kirlia cries out in pain after getting hit from two super effective moves and being thrown into the wall. Kirlia drops from the indentation it made upon contact and lands on the ground in a crouch.
"Hit it again before it can recover," Brock calls out angrily.
Steelix's head hardens over and rushes over to the injured Kirlia, "Kirlia!" Dean calls out, "Use Teleport!"
Before Kirlia can execute the move its smashed into the wall by Steelix, the bigger Pokemon pulls back before smashing it again but with its tail gain. It towers over the injured Pokemon. "Kirlia!"
"Hyper Beam," Brock says angrily causing the crowd to gasp, knowing that if that move hits Kirlia would most likely not survive.
"Kirlia!" Dean calls out in distress, he tries to return his Pokemon to its ball, but the beam of red energy is blocked by Steelix. Making a split second decision, Dean abandons his trainer box and runs over to his Pokemon calling out its name in distress. He leaps over Steelix's tail as it tries to swat him away and jumps over his Pokemon curling his body around it with hopes to protect him.
The beam is fired before anyone can react and an explosion along with the pained scream of Dean is heard. Zep is the first of Dean's friends to jump over the wall and rush over to the injured trainer. He is soon followed by the rest including May and Dawn. The two girls make their way over to the injured trainer, while Ash makes his way towards Brock.
"I'll kill you!" he yells, "I'll kill you for this."
Before he can charge the man Paul and Trip rush over and grab his arms, "Let me go!"
The others hurry over to Ash hoping to calm him down.
"Is he ok?" May asks worriedly.
"Unless I can get him to a hospital I don't know," Zep says as he rips off part of Dean's tattered shirt before wrapping it around his back hoping to stop the blood flow. May takes off her bandanna and wraps it over a gash on his forehead.
Zep quickly grabs one of Deans Poke balls and tosses it revealing Dean's Gardevoir. "Gardevoir," Zep says urgently, "I need you to teleport us to the hospital asap."
The Pokemon nods and her eyes glow blue before teleporting the 4 humans to the hospital. "I NEED A DOCTOR NOW!" Zep calls out urgently.
A few nurses rush over and see the unconscious and injured Dean. "I need a medical bed stat," a nurse calls out as a team of Doctors rush out of the emergency care unit. They load the injured teen onto the bed and wheel him away behind the doors they came from. "We'll do everything we can," a nurse says, "So explain what happened."
"He was battling in the tournament when his opponent became aggressive and tried to kill Dean's Pokemon," Zep starts.
"But before his opponents Pokemon could finish off his with a Hyper Beam he ran forward and curled his body around his Pokemon's in hopes of saving its life," May finishes seeing Zep pause in speaking.
"Ok," the nurse says writing what she was told on a clip boar before disappearing behind the doors Dean was taken through.
"Get Kirlia healed please," Zep says handing the pokeball to the two girls. They nod and run out of the doors to heal the Pokemon. Zep makes his way to the waiting area and takes a seat before burying his head in his hands and softly crying. A few minutes later Zep gets a text from an unknown number, "We're going to stay here while Kirlia gets healed. Let us know when you get an update on Dean. - Dawn" He replies with a quick "ok". About 10 minutes later Chloe runs into the hospital and over to Zep. She hugs onto him as Cynthia comes running after her.
"Is Uncle Dean going to be ok?"
"I don't know Chloe," Zep says sadly, "He's been in there for around 15 minutes."
"We'll find out soon enough Chloe," Cynthia says taking a seat next to Zep.
-X-
About five minutes after Chloe and Cynthia showed up, Ash and the rest of the group show up.
"Any word on his condition?" Ash asks.
Zep shakes his head sadly, causing the group to look down sadly and take a seat around the room.
-X-
20 minutes after Ash showed up a doctor walks out of the emergency care unit. "May I please speak to the one who brought in Dean?"
Zep quickly stands up and walks towards the doctor, "How is he Doc?"
"He'll live," the doctor says causing the group to sigh in relief.
"How's his condition?" Ash asks.
"We managed to stitch his back and stopped to blood flow. He also has a broken arm, a few cracked ribs, and some spinal damage that will heal over time, but he'll have to take a prescription medicine to ease the pain."
"Will he be able to return to the tournament," Max asks.
"Sadly no," the doctor says, "because of his back he is to stay bedridden for the duration of the tournament unless he is approved by us to leave. And he will have to take some physical therapy to help his back heal once he's up."
"Thank you doctor," Cynthia says.
"When can we see him?" Chloe asks.
"He is being transported to a room right now," the doctor says, "so in a few minutes I'll take you all to his room."
"Thank you doctor," Ash says taking a seat once again.
-X-
A few minutes later the doctor returned and told the group to follow. The packed into elevator and soon arrived on the fourth floor. The walked to the end of the hall and entered a room. Open entering the room the first thing the noticed was the pale, passed out Dean laying on a white bed under a thick, fuzzy blanket. He had a tube running from his wrist to a machine which was displaying different rates about his body. On the other side was a heart rate monitor beeping steadily. On the far side of the room was a window taking up the length of the wall, showing a great view of the tournamnet field and the ocean. Zep walked over and grabbed a chair from the corner and sat next to Dean, he was soon joined by Ash, Cynthia, and Chloe, as the rest sat on the bench under the window.
That sat in silence as they look on their injured friend. His skin was paled, but not to an extreme, he had a bandage wrapped around his forehead, his left arm was in a cast, and his torso was wrapped up. The only sounds that filled the room were the beeping of the monitor next to Dean, Dean's quiet ragged breaths, and the soft breathing of everyone else in the room.
After sitting in the room for a while everyone slowly left the room, leaving the people closest to Dean left.
"Come on Chloe," Cynthia says, "Let's go get your uncle some flowers."
The girl nods and walks out with the blonde. "I'm heading to the police station to see how long I can get Brock locked up for."
"I'm going to," Zep says standing up, "those bastard will pay for what they've done."
Ash nods and the two males leave their sleeping friend alone.
-X-
"Time to take this bitch down," Zep says coldly as he grabs a poke ball and walks into the stadium.
Ash nods and heads into the stands to watch the battle.
Zep walks onto the field and spots Misty waving to her friends and blowing kisses to her boyfriend.
"If you done being sappy let's get this over with," he says annoyed.
Misty rolls her eyes. "Let the battle between Misty Waterflower of Cerulean City And Zepplin Pierce of the Kalos Elite Four Begin,"The ref says, "Trainers, please select your Pokémon."
"Misty chooses Starmie," Misty calls sending out her starfish like Pokémon.
"Let's go Venasaur," Zep says sending out the Kanto grass starter, "Be fierce for Pierce."
"Start off with Psychic," Misty says. The gem of the water/psychic type Pokémon glows before a pink hue surrounds Venasaur.
"Stop her with Vine Whip," Zep says annoyed as his Pokémon easily breaks the psychic move and whips its opponent with the super effective move.
"Rapid Spin," Misty calls as her Pokemon starts to spin rapidly and head towards Venasaur.
Zep sighs, "No reason for this," he raises his wrist, "but lets do it." He taps the mega stone in his bracelet, a white aura strings out of the bracelet in four streams before going green and connecting with the band around Venasaur's leg. "With the bond we share, let our hearts become one. Gather strength from my own, AND MEGA EVOLVE!" A bright flash of light follows and when it disappears Venasaur has undergone another evolution. Its skin has become a lighter blue green than before, with 3 dark teal spots between its eyes and a pink flower on its forehead. The flower on its back has grown a few more big pink petals, while the base of the flower has gotten thicker. the leaves now stick out and hang down off the trunk, with four blueish leaves underneath them on its back. It also has four vines hanging above each green leaf.
"Take her down with Razor Leaf," Zep says. The big Pokemon shakes its back as leafs fall out and it whips them towards Starmie at a fast pace. The super effective move hits knocking the star Pokemon back. "Solar Beam."
A small ball of energy forms above Venasaur's flower,"Ice Beam quickly," Misty calls out urgently. The back part of Starmie spins as a ball of ice appears before shooting out a beam of it at the large grass/poison Pokemon.
"Release," Zep says with a bored tone. The Solar Beam fires ripping through the Ice Beam and hitting Starmie causing an explosion sending the water/psychic Pokemon into the wall as it's gem looses its glow signifying it's knocked out.
"Starmie is unable to battle," the ref says as Venasaur reverted back to normal, "therefore. The winner is Zepplin Pierce of the Kalos Elite Four."
Zep walks out as the crowd explodes into cheers. Misty stops her foot and storms out, mad that she lost.
-X-.
After a short walk Zep, Chloe, Ash, and Cynthia walk into the elevator and ride it up to the fourth floor. When the elevator opens they walk to the end of the hall and open the door to Dean's room. They see the t.v. on showing the results of Zep's battle. Dean looks over and sees his closest friends, "Hey guys," he says with a pained smile.
"Uncle Dean," Chloe says running over and climbing into the bed to hug her uncle.
"Hey Chloe," he says hugging her back with his good arm.
"Nice to see you awake," Ash says with a smile.
"Yeah," he responds, "I woke up just in time to watch Zep's match start. Nice job by the way."
"Thanks," Zep says with a smirk, "How you feeling?"
"Fantastic," he replies sarcastically while rolling his eyes, "just peachy."
The five laugh, "I hurt."
"You took quite the hit there," Cynthia says.
"How's Kirlia?" Dean asks.
"I ran him to the Pokecenter after dropping you off here," Zep says in a partial lie, "I'll check on him when we leave."
"Thanks bro," he says with a smile, he lays back down, and yawns, "I'm gonna take a nap."
"Sleep well Dean," they respond and walk out of the room the let their friend have his peace.
-X-
A knock on the door sounds through the room, "It's open," Dean calls out as he continues to watch tv.
The door opens revealing a smiling brunette and blue haired girl. "Hey Dean," May says walking over to the bed with some flowers and a balloon, "How you feeling?"
"Sore," he responds, "very sore."
"I bet," Dawn says, "that was a hard hit you took."
"So I've been told," Dean says, "so what made you come visit?"
"Zep text us saying that you woke up," May says, "So we thought we'd come visit."
"You know," Dean says, "We never got to hang out like we planned."
"Your right," May says, "wanna chat for a while?"
"Sorry but I'm busy, " Dean says sarcastically.
The two girls laugh, "Very funny Dean," May says with an eye roll.
-X-
So the girls and Dean sit around for about an hour or so just chatting and getting to know each other. " We better get going," Dawn says to May.
"Bye girls," Dean says smiling as Dawn walks out.
"Bye Dean," the bluenette says, "hope you get better soon."
"Bye Dean," May says, she kisses his forehead and quickly rushes out of the room blushing.
Dean stares at the closed door dumbfounded with a blush on his cheeks, "Did she just?"
He continues to stare for a few minutes before smiling, "So cute," he whispers to himself, before returning to watching tv.
-X-.
Throught the next couple of days Dean had many visitors, all from his friends and a couple from May and Dawn. He enjoyed when someone came to visit, it took his mind off the fact that he couldn't do anything, but was bored when they left. The days went by his friends battling random trainers, but surprisingly, none faced the traitors or each other yet. And today was the last day for the 1v1 battles.
"So who's battling today?" Dean asks.
"I believe Paul and Trip are battling each other," Zep says.
"I'm battling Tory as well," Chloe pipes into the conversation.
"So little Chloe's battling her boyfriend?" Dean says teasingly.
"W-what?" she says quickly with a blush, "I'm not, we're, he's not my boyfriend."
"Mmhmm," Zep says, "anyway," he says taking attention away from Chloe, "Cynthia is battling some random trainer again, and I think that's all."
"Cool," Dean says, "Definitely looking forward to Paul and Trips match, as well as yours Chloe."
"You need to get going for your match Chloe," Ash tells his daughter.
"Bye Uncle Dean," Chloe says sending out her Gardevoir and teleporting herself, Ash, Zep, and Cynthia away to the stadium.
Chloe quickly makes her way into the stadium and onto the field.
She looks across the field and sees her opponent, "Good luck Tory!" She calls out to him waving.
"You to Chloe," he calls back.
"Let the battle between Tory of the Hoenn Elite Four and Chloe of the Kalos Elite Four begin," the ref calls out, " Trainers please select your Pokémon."
"Let's go Torkoal," Tory says sending out the fiery turtle Pokémon.
"Shine bright Gardevoir," Chloe calls out sending out her shiny Gardevoir, the crowd gasps and cheers loudly at the appearance of the shiny.
"Start off with Flamethrower," Tory calls out.
"Dosge then use Psychic," Chloe counters, her shiny Pokémon teleports out of the way of the Flamethrower and lifts Torkoal with Psychic. Gardevoir starts to slam Torkoal, into the ground and soon tosses it to the side before teleporting to her trainer.
"Torkoal," Tory calls out, "Use Overheat." The Fire type Pokémon opens it mouth and send out a burst of flames straight for Gardevoir.
"Gardevoir," Chloe calls out, "Psychic to divert the Overheat." Gardevoir's eyes glow blue and the flames stop in their tracks surrounded by a blue hue, and is thrown to the side, as it connects with the wall it splits off sending flames everywhere.
"Shadow Ball," Chloe calls. Gardevoir forms a dark purple ball of energy in her hands before launching it at her opponent. Before Torkoal can dodge its hit with a Shadow Ball, knocking it back a couple feet.
"Flamethrower."
"Rapid fire Shadow Ball," as Torkoal fires out a stream of flames, Gardevoir fires Shadow Ball after Shadow Ball.
Slowlt the Shadow Balls over power the Flamethrower and hit Torkoal. After each hit smoke is thrown into the air, after about 5 Shadow Balls a cloud of smoke hovers over Torkoal. As the smoke fades it reveals Torkoal laging on the ground with swirls for eyes.
"And the winner is Chloe of the Kalos Elite Four," the ref calls out causing Chloe to smile and the crowd to cheer.
-X-
"Let the battle between Paul Shinji and Trip Shooty of the Hoenn Elite Four begin," the ref says, "Trainers please select your Pokémon."
"Torterra, stand by for battle," Paul says sending out his starter.
"Let's go Chandelure," Trip says.
"Start off with Flamethrower," Trip calls out,
"Use Stone Edge," Paul says casually.
Chandelure flies back a bit and fires a stream of flames at the grass starter of Sinnoh, while Torterra rears up and stomps into front legs onto the ground causing stones to pop up out of the ground and rip through the Flamethrower and connect with Chandelure and knock it down.
"While it down Use Earthquake," Paul says.
Torterra stomps the ground once agin causing it to shake and damage Chandelure who has yet to get up.
Chandelure cries out it pain as the super effective move hits it, "Shadow Ball."
Chandelure levitates itself back into the air and forms a ball of purple ghostly energy before firing it at Torterra who is to slow to dodge.
"Flame Charge," flames cover the Chandelure and it charges at Torterra.
Paul smirks, as Chandelure gets closer. "Grab it with Crunch."
Torterra grunts in pain as the flames from Chandelure burn its mouth. "Throw it to the ground and use Frenzy Plant."
Torterra roars and stomps the ground causing massive green vines to jut out form the ground and race towards Chandelure. "Flamethrower."
Chandelure weakly shoots flames at the oncoming tendrils of grass but the quickly slice through it and wrap around Chandelure and squeeze it.
Chandelure weakly cries out before going limp with swirls for eyes, "Chandelure is unable to battle," he points to Paul, "Therefore Paul of the Hoenn Elite Four is the winner!" The two challengers walk out of the stadium and meet up with the rest of the group.
"Nice job Paul," Max says.
"You better stay in until I can kick you ass," Ash says with a smirk.
"You're on," Paul says smirking, "But you better not lose to your lovely lady.
"It'll be us in the final match," Ash says confidently, "and I'm not going down with out a fight."
And that's the end of chapter 4. Now for my announcement, I'm sorry... but I think I'm leaving this story. I know you all enjoy it, and I'm glad you do, but I don't have the drive to keep going. Instead of straight up abandoning it, I think I'm planning to give it up for adoption. If you want to help me out and continue this story please pm me, and I'll think about it and if I give the okay, I'll give youths details for what I had planned. But I'm not planning on giving up writing, I still love it, but I'm currently working an a personal story project, and as much as I want to I won't post it here because I don't have any category to put it under. But I think I'm going to move onto some Fairy Tail stories, so if I do go check those out for me. So once again thank you all for supporting me, and as much as it pains me to say this here, this may be the good bye for this story.
Until next time, Electric Dragon Rider... out.
