Ok, last chapter, Tyson and Alexis did some training. When that happened, Alexis' Scatterbug evolved into a Spewqa! The duo even learned of the evil Team Genez, who sent out 'Lieutenant Brett' to take Tyson's Riolu in order to get the Lucarionite, a 'Mega Stone'. They even met their 'escort', Bolt Wilson, who has a dream set on becoming an Electric Type Master. Now, it's time for Tyson's first gym battle against Viola. Let's get it!
Tyson's team
Froakie, (m), level 11, Pound, Quick Attack, Bubble, Water Pulse
Fletchling, (m), level 11, Peck, Quick Attack, Aerial Ace, Razor Wind
Riolu, (m), level 14, Aura Sphere, Blaze Kick, Force Palm, Quick Attack
Alexis' team
Fennekin, (f), level 10, Flamethrower, Ember, Scratch, Pysbeam
Spewqa, (f), level 10, Tackle, String Shot, Bug Bite, Protect
Bolt's team
Shinx, (m), level 14, Spark, Thunderbolt, Tackle, Charge
Pikachu, (m), level 14, Nuzzle, Thunderbolt, Quick Attack, Thundershock
Tyson opened his eyes to see Riolu laying on him. He smiled as he just gently picked Riolu up and put him on the other side of the bed. Tyson saw Froakie and Fletchling sleeping on the foot of the bed. Looking over to the right, he noticed that Alexis and Bolt wasn't in the new suite of the Inn.
Getting changed quickly, Tyson retuned his Pokemon to their capsules and ran out the Inn. I know Bolt and Alexis should have enough sense to not leave without waking me up! Tyson exclaimed in his mind as he put his hat on. I didn't even check the time before I left, please don't tell me I'm late!

Tyson ran in the viewer's part to see Bolt standing with his Shinx, looking on the battlefield.
"Hey, nice job leaving me," he said sarcastically as he turned and smiled at him.
"No problem, just had to see your friend in battle," he replied as Tyson looked in shock. He ran to the edge and saw Alexis and Fennekin with an injured water strider on Viola's side.
"Nice job Surskit, return," she said as she returned her Pokemon to a Poke Ball. "Now for the finale, Vivillon! Front and Center!" she exclaimed as she threw a Poke Ball that released the familiar butterfly on the field.
"Return Fennekin!" Alexis shouted as she zapped her starter back in the Poke Ball. "The stage is yours Spewqa!" she yelled as her cocoon like bug landed on the field.
"Pre-evolution vs. final evoulution," Viola stated as Vivillon flew around the field. "Gust," she said calmly as Vivillon blew a gust of wind at Spewqa.
"Protect!" Alexis commanded as Spewqa let a shield that blocked the wind. "Tackle!" Spewqa jumped in the air and rammed into its evolution. Vivillon regained her balance and began to get ready to attack.
"Psychic as a counter attack!" Viola commanded as Spewqa was lifted in the air and thrown repeatedly on the ground. After the smoke cleared, Spewqa had many scares on her. "Rap this up with Solar Beam!" the gym leader instructed as Vivillon charged up a green ball in front of her as it got larger and larger.
"Protect to shield yourself!" Alexis screamed franticly as Spewqa let up a bubbled force field. The Solar Beam then hit the Protect and started to move Spewqa until she started to glow in a blue light. As she did, her figure and Protect got larger. When the Solar Beam stopped, Spewqa's new form took the same shape as Viola's Vivillon. The only difference was that the wings were purple, orange, and red instead of pink, blue, and white.
"Spewqa evolved," Viola said astonished as Alexis' Vivillon flew around the battlefield. She's definitely not ugly anymore!
I saw Alexis pull out her Pokedex and smiled. Her Vivillon must have learned some new moves.
"Enough waiting! Gust now!" Viola commanded as her Vivillon blew a gust of wind at Alexis' Vivillon.
"Counter with your own!" Alexis retaliated as her Vivillon's Gust hit the previous one. The attacks canceled out as both opponents smiled at each other. "Energy Ball!" her Vivillon created a small green orb and fired it at the opposing Bug Type. Viola's Vivillon recovered from the attack and was ready for some payback.
"Sleep Powder!" Viola instructed as her Vivillon blew green powder at Alexis' Vivillon.
"Blow it back with Gust!" Alexis shouted as her Vivillon blew the gust, which caused the Sleep Powder to hit Viola's Vivillon instead. Viola's Vivillon fell to the ground, sleeping. Now its Alexis' chance to win!
"Psybeam to end this battle!" Alexis commanded as her Vivillon blasted the opposing Vivillon with a beam of pink and blue psy-waves. As the smoke cleared, Viola's Vivillon was finished, her having swirls in her eyes.
"Viola's Vivillon is unable to battle, the challenger Alexis is victorious!" the referee announced as Alexis and her Vivillon jumped in the air, happy of their victory.
"I'm positive you'll win the Camphrier Town Contest if you battle like that!" Viola complemented as Alexis started to blush. "Also, your Vivillon is a rare one at that since her wings are the Elegant Pattern."
"Nice battle!" Tyson yelled from the top of the watchers booth as Alexis and Viola turned to face him.
"Sorry it took so long to finish," Alexis apologized as he jumped from the balcony.
"I really don't care! I wasn't able to see the first part but Vivillon is amazing!" Tyson as Alexis; face turned even more red as Viola nodded in agreement.
"I'll heal my Pokemon real quick with the gym's center and I'll be ready for our battle Tyson," Viola said as she walked in the opposite direction.
"Good luck Tyson," Alexis wished as she walked up the stairs, leading to the balcony.

After a couple of minutes, Viola came back with her team healed. Both she and Tyson went on separate sides of the field to start their battle.
"This will be a three vs. three Pokemon battle between Tyson Pernell from Vaniville Town and Viola the gym leader. Only the trainer may substitute their Pokemon and when one trainer's team is unable to battle, the battle will be over. Viola, choose your Pokemon!" the referee ordered.
"Let's dance Surskit!" Viola shouted as the water strider from before landed on the field.
Surskit, the Pound Skater Pokemon. From the tips of its feet, Surskit secretes an oil that enables it to walk on water as if it were skating. This Pokémon feeds on microscopic organisms in ponds and lakes.
"Riolu, let's work!" Tyson yelled as the familiar blue and black Pokemon stood on the field.
"The battle between Surskit and Riolu will now begin!"
"Quick Attack!" Tyson commanded as Riolu smashed into Surskit, causing her to flip over on the ground.
"Sticky Web!" Viola ordered as Surskit threw large webs in Riolu's direction. Without command, Riolu dodged each of them. The webs landed all around the field, seemingly as a failed move attempt.
"Quick Attack!" Tyson shouted once more as Riolu slammed Surskit again.
"Ice Beam!" Surskit launched a beam of ice at Riolu, to only see him avoid the move. However, Surskit kept firing the blast around the whole battlefield. The field was covered with ice as when Riolu landed, he fell on the slippery ice. Surskit landed gracefully and slid on the ice. "Now use Signal Beam!" Surskit fired a beam of green energy at Riolu. Riolu flew as he regained his balance, but fell once more.
This must be her plan. Tyson thought as Viola and Surskit was smiling. Taking out the battlefield to take out her opponents. Not anymore though.
"Slide on the ice with Blaze Kick!" Tyson shouted as Riolu's feet was engulfed with flames as he ran across with ice. Viola looked with shock that in a matter of time, Tyson figured out how to take out her strategy. "Now kick her!" Riolu jumped off the melted ice and leaned his foot in Surskit's direction.
"Dodge and throw Sticky Web!" Viola countered as Surskit moved out Riolu's direction and through more webs around the field.
"Force Palm!" Riolu raced in front of Surskit and hit the Bug-Type with his palm. The Pound Skater collided with the wall as swirls was in her eyes.
"Surskit is unable to battle! Viola, choose your next Pokemon!"
Viola returned the once more injured Pokemon to her ball. She then grabbed another ball from her belt and threw it in the air.
"Come 'on Heracross!" A large blue beetle appeared on the field with a large blue horn with sharp edges.
Heracross, the Singlehorn Pokemon. Heracross charges in a straight line at its foe, slips beneath the foe's grasp, and then scoops up and hurls the opponent with its mighty horn. This Pokémon even has enough power to topple a massive tree.
"This will be a battle between Heracross and Riolu! Begin!"
"Horn Attack! "Viola instructed as the beetle's horn grew and leaned towards Riolu.
"Block that with Blaze Kick!" Tyson countered as one of Riolu's feet set ablaze and smashed Heracross back in his starting position. "Aura Sphere!" Riolu charged a blue orb and launched it at Heracross.
"Smash it with Brick Break!" Viola ordered as Heracross smashed the orb with one of his glowing arms. "Ram him with Horn Attack again!" Hearcross flew in the direction of Riolu with his horn glowing and growing.
"Use the horn to jump in the air!" Riolu waited until Heracross was a few inches to spring on his horn and elevated into the air. Both Alexis and Bolt was in awe as Riolu timed the jumped perfectly. "Now end this with Blaze Kick!" Riolu's feet this time, was engulfed in flames as he spun down like a drill.
"Fly out the way!" Heracross' wing expanded as he flew up, out of reach from Riolu's 'Fire Drill'. Riolu hit the ground, his feet steaming. "Aerial Ace!" Viola instructed as Heracross flew down and when Riolu tried move, he grunted in pain. Heracross however, wasn't waiting for Riolu to feel better and slashed the Fighting-Type. Riolu fell with a thud as swirls enveloped his eyes.
"Riolu is unable to battle! Choose your next Pokemon Tyson!"
Sorry…Riolu apologized as Tyson got his ball ready. "You was great buddy, take a rest," Tyson reassured as he zapped the Emanation Pokemon back into his capsule. "Let's do this Froakie!" Tyson shouted as his starter appeared and looked at Heracross without fear in his eyes.
"Resume battle!"
"Horn Attack!" Viola started as Heracross flew towards Froakie.
"Block it with Pound!" Tyson countered as Froakie's fist glowed white. Instead, it grew sharper and blocked the hit.
This is moved is called Cut. The target is cut with a scythe or a claw. It can also be used to cut down thin trees. The Pokedex buzzed as Tyson grinned.
"Water Pulse pronto!" Froakie gathered energy in a small aqua sphere and blasted Heracross with it.
"Aerial Ace!" Viola shouted as Hearacoss slashed Froakie in retaliation as Froakie fell on one knee.
"Use Quick Attack!" Froakie ran towards the large blue beetle, leaving a trail of light behind him.
"Blast him with Horn Attack!" Hearcross shot off the ground and leaned in Froakie's line of travel.
"Throw your Frubbles!" Tyson commanded as Froake chucked countless white bubbles that expanded in midair. The bubbles covered Heracross's face and horn and stopped him in his tracks. Froakie then resumed his Quick attack that knocked the giant over. Swirls was drawn in Heracross' eyes signaling the battle was over.
"Heracross is unable to battle, the victor is Froakie! Viola, choose your final Pokemon!"
"Snapshot! Vivillion, enter!" Viola called as her Vivillion flew in the air.
"Water Pulse!" Tyson shouted as his starter threw another blue orb at Vivillion.
"Blow it away with Gust!" Viola countered as her butterfly blew wind that exploded the Water Attack.
"Quick Attack!" Froakie jumped in the air and smashed into Vivillion.
"Blow it back with Gust!" Vivillion flapped her wings, which threw Froakie into a sticky web that Surskit had played earlier. Froakie couldn't even get out was he kept stretching the web out. "Solar Beam!" Viola instructed as Vivillion charged up a green orb and then blasted Froakie with tons of solar energy. Froakie did eventually fall out the web but, he also was crisped.
"Froakie is unable to continue! Pick your final Pokemon Tyson!"
"Fletchling, let's finish this!" His shiny bird flew around the battlefield as both Flying types eyed each other. "Use Razor Wind!" Fletchling launched multiple sharp winds that hit right on target.
"Psychic!" Vivillion's eyes glowed blue as Fletchling was threw everywhere around the gym. Fletchling was knocked into another Sticky Web and struggled to get out like Froakie did previously. "Now use Solar Beam!" Vivillion charged up the familiar green sphere and blasted Fletchling with the Grass-Type move.
"Fletchling, get up and strike her with Peck!" Tyson ordered as Fletchling's beak glowed and he flew off the ground to hit the Scale Pokemon. Sadly, he fell right back down to the field. He laid on his knees, looking up at his opponent with a strained face.
"Sleep Powder!" Vivillion flapped her wings, which blew small green powder in the injured Fltechling's direction.
"Please, throw it back with Razor Wind!" Tyson pleaded. Fletchling closed his eyes for a quick second and elevated into the sky. He flapped his wings as the sharp winds hit the green powder and combined with it. The Razor Wind turned green as they was still on its path to Vivillion. The Normal-Type move stuck Vivillion as she descended to meet the hard floor. As the dust cleared up, Vivillion's eyes were swirled, signaling Fletchling's victory.
"Vivillion is unable to battle, the winner is Fletchling! That means the challenger Tyson is victorious!"
Fletchling smiled at the news and fell back since his battle was over. Expecting to hit the ground, he felt the soft hands of his trainer touching his wings. The Flying-Type looked up to see Tyson had a smirk on his face.
"You was fantastic buddy," was all he said, knowing all Fletchling wanted to do was rest. With a single nod, Fletchling was zapped back into his Poke Ball.
Viola walked up to Tyson and presented him the same badge given to Alexis. "That was an incredible victory Tyson," the defeated gym leaded complemented as Alexis and Bolt made their way down to the battlefield. "If you keep this up, there's no way you couldn't go far in the Kalos League."
Tyson smiled as he took the badge and put it in his black badge case. One down, 7 more to go. Tyson thought.
About to make their way out the gym, Viola came running after them. The trio turned around to see Viola getting her camera ready. "I always take a picture of my winning challengers."

Viola walked in her gym to see a row of picture of various trainers and Pokemon; mostly Bug-Types. She had an empty spot and placed the picture from earlier. Tyson, Bolt, and Alexis smiling was shown.
As Viola walked away, a smirk crept on her face. Can't wait to see them again. Viola thought as she turned the light off the room, the smiles of trio still illuminated the room after she left.
