CHAPTER 14:
Coolest Clash in Eons! Part 2
"And with that, POW! I'm gone!" Ronnie cried, running off.
Melanie picked up $1600 Ronnie had dropped before she and Roy rushed up the stairs, ready to keep fighting.
The two ascended the stairs to see a female Aqua Grunt gazing at an imperative-looking marine ecology contrivance.
"Step away from the… thingie, Aqua Grunt!" Roy ordered.
The Grunt turned to face them, saying:
"I'm afraid I can't do that, kid. Unless you battle me and win." She then noticed Melanie.
"MELANIE! Because a' you, da' boss assigned me with Ronnie! I'll battle you and Ugly-boy here!" she yelled, giving away her cool complexion.
"I'M NOT THAT UGLY, YOU… what's your name, anyway?" Roy cried.
"Jillian's the name. PREPARE FOR DOOOOOOM!" she roared as she pulled out two Aqua Balls, causing Roy and Melanie to sweat drop.
"Wailmer, Golbat, come forth!"
"Waillllll…" came a deep voice from a big spherical body with blue over white coloring with small, wing-like appendages on its sides.
"Goooool!" Jillian's Golbat bellowed from its enormous mouth. It had a purple body in the shape of a curved rectangle, small, t-shaped feet, and green wings.
"Poochyena, come and do battle!" Melanie shouted, releasing Poochyena.
"Pooch!" Poochyena barked.
'Okay, so… Wailmer's a Water-Type; Golbat a Poison-Flying element. Nosepass would get Golbat with its Rock-type moves (He had learned them.), but Wailmer could counter that. Masquerain will be good, so…" Roy thought.
"Masquerain, I choose you!"
"Masq!" Masquerain chirped, landing on Roy's shoulder.
Battle statistics: This is a three-on-three double battle with no time limit, but substitutions at any time for Jillian and either Roy or (Keyword: OR) Melanie, as long as the amount of Pokemon used never becomes more than three.
Melanie's Poochyena and Roy's Masquerain vs. Team Aqua Grunt Jillian's Wailmer and Golbat
BATTLE COMMENCE!
"Wailmer, start off with Water Gun on that pathetic Poochyena!" Jillian ordered.
Wailmer's mouth opened, and a blast of water shot toward Poochyena.
"Poochyena, dodge and used Shadow Ball!" Melanie shouted.
Poochyena leapt out of the blast's path, and sent a black, crackling ball of energy at Wailmer after it formed, which hit its mark! Critical hit!
"Masquerain, use Ice Beam on Golbat!" Roy commanded, pointing at the victim-to-be.
Masquerain flew off of Roy's shoulder, and formed a pale blue ball between its small, white wings. It shot out at Golbat, doing a ton of damage, as it was super effective.
"Golbat! Use Poison Fang!"
Golbat's large, white fangs glowed a sinister purple as he flew rapidly at Masquerain. He crunched down once in Masquerain's proximity.
"Masquerain! Ya' okay?" Roy asked, getting a nod in response.
"Okay, use Giga Drain on Wailmer!"
A green ball of energy formed in front of Masquerain and Wailmer, energy streaming from Wailmer's. Masquerain was healed, and Wailmer nearly fainted.
"Poochyena, use Bite on Golbat!"
Poochyena ran at Golbat and bit it, making Golbat have almost equal HP to Wailmer.
"Okay, Mel, ready for a double knock-out?" Roy asked his comrade.
"Yeah! Poochyena…"
"Masquerain…"
"USE SECRET POWER! BOTH A' YA'!" the two yelled in unison.
A white ball appeared in front of Masquerain and Poochyena, which turned yellow, going toward Golbat/Wailmer in lightning-bolt form! The two victims were KO'd by… Thunderbolt!
"AWESOME!" Roy and Melanie cheered.
"Okay, time for the big guns!" Jillian growled as her Pokemon returned to their Poke Balls in red light. "I choose you! Croconaw!"
"Croc-an-aw!" Croconaw growled. Its bottom jaw was yellow, along with the lower body, save some blue spots. The rest of its head and neck were blue, and the tail and legs were blue as well. Five spikes adorned the back and head, with a diamond-shaped one on the tail.
Melanie's Poochyena and Roy's Masquerain vs. T.A.G. Jillian's Croconaw
BATTLE COMMENCE!
"Wow! Not that I'm that impressed…" Melanie said.
"Yeah, yeah. Masquerain, Giga Drain it!" Roy ordered.
A green ball sucked the energy from Croconaw into Masquerain, KO'ing it!
"Awesome, Masquerain! You deserve a rest; return."
Masquerain flashed back into his Net Ball in red light.
"You too, Poochyena." Melanie added, having Poochyena return to its Ball.
"Nuts! Return, Croconaw!" Jillian held out Croconaw's Poke Ball, into which the fainted Croconaw flashed.
"I'm gone! AAAAAHHHHHHH!" she screamed, running away, causing a sweat drop from our heroes.
The rest of the Aqua members bolted away, but after that, the same red-blue helicopter Roy and Melanie saw before on Route 104 had found a way to pry off the ceiling, allowing their entry.
"NOT Team Eon AGAIN!" Roy screamed as he saw the red and blue E symbols of the aircraft and on the… Grunt that dropped down. At least, it was a Grunt uniform, only it was a vertical red half/blue half, and the sleeveless shirt of the Grunts' uniform was long-sleeve. In addition, she had blue (!) hair.
"So, you are the two who defeated Meg and Patricia before… an Aqua Grunt and an Ugly-boy." she mumbled.
"EX-TEAM AQUA GRUNT!" Melanie roared.
"I'M NOT THAT UGLY!" Roy cried.
"Ha ha… don't try to intimidate me, Boy. You may acknowledge me as Emilia. But others call me Team Eon Executive A. I shall engage Ugly-boy in a two-on-two double Pokemon battle. If he loses, I shall take the object here at the museum: the Soul Dew." Emilia said.
"I'M NOT THAT UGLY!" Roy screamed.
"Yes, yes. Ugh… Kirlia, Gligar, do it!"
"Kir-lia!" Kirlia cried out once on the ground.
"Gli!" Gligar shouted from up in the air. It was a scorpion-like purple bat with pincers and blue-green, sharp wings.
"Nosepass, Machop, c'mon out!" Roy shouted.
"Nose-pass!" Nosepass grunted.
"Ma-chop!" Machop growled.
Battle statistics: Didn't ya' hear Emilia? This is a two-on-two double battle with no time limit or substitutions.
Roy's Machop and Nosepass vs. Team Eon Executive A Emilia's Kirlia and Gligar
BATTLE COMMENCE!
"Nosepass, use Rock Slide on Gligar!" Roy ordered.
Nosepass stomped the ground, making rocks fly toward Gligar. The attack did some good damage to the Ground/Flying Pokemon, but not enough to knock it out.
"Machop, use your Rock Slide on Gligar too!"
Machop stomped the floor too, sending more rocks at Gligar. The two Rock Slides made the creature faint!
"AWESOME!" Roy cheered, raising up his fist.
"Return, Gligar." Emilia muttered. Gligar turned into red energy, flashing back inside the Poke Ball.
"Ah, well. Kirlia, use Confusion on Nosepass!"
Kirlia waved its arms, making a wave of rainbow-colored energy, hitting Nosepass.
"Now, use Psychic on it!" Emilia ordered.
A bigger wave of multi-colored energy shot from Kirlia at Nosepass, which knocked it out!
"Good, Nosepass. Return." Roy said in a groaning voice.
Nosepass turned red, beaming back to the Great Ball.
"Machop! Focus Energy and then Bulk Up!"
Machop focused on his target, upping the critical hit rate. He then inhaled and exhaled deeply, boosting Attack and Defense.
"Ha, you'll still lose! Kirlia, rush in and use Ice Punch!" Emilia shouted triumphantly.
Kirlia ran in toward Machop, fist glowing pale blue. It was ten seconds until impact…
Eight seconds…
Five seconds…
Three seconds…
"MACHOP-USE-YOUR-CROSS-CHOP-NOW!" Roy blurted out.
Machop leapt at the one-&-½-feet-away Kirlia, hands forming an "X", glowing white. It was all or nothing…
……CHOP!
A critical Cross Chop hit Kirlia before Machop could be hit, resulting in… A KO!
"YES! MACHOP YA' DID IT! YEEEES!" Roy cheered, ecstatic.
Machop was panting furiously, but it finally defeated its enemy, on who could bring about a 1-hit-KO to Machop with its Psychic attack, so deep down, it was as ecstatic as Roy.
Kirlia and Machop were recalled to their Poke Balls for a rest.
"…Fine! We don't need the Soul Dew anyway! Hear me well, Ugly-boy, I for one am--"
"I'm not that ugly!" Roy roared loudly, nearly making his voice hoarse!
"Grr… I for one am not going to be beaten- NEXT TIME!" Emilia shouted, the last two words fast. She climbed up a ladder sent down by the Team Eon Grunts, glaring at her enemies.
"I did it, Mel! I beat her but good!" Roy cheered, high-fiving her.
"You were awesome, Roy!" Melanie added.
A scientist walked up to see them.
"Was it you two that sent Team Aqua packing?" he asked.
"Yes, sir." they replied.
"Thank you! I'm Captain Stern, the curator of this museum. What were they after, tell me?"
"A… we don't know, actually. But we do know that Team Eon was…" Melanie explained.
"Who is Team Eon?" Stern asked them.
"Their like Team Aqua and Magma; they wanna capture Legendary Pokemon to take over the world, I think." Melanie answered.
"Oh? What were they here for?"
This time Roy answered.
"The Soul Dew."
"THE WHAT! I dunno what the Soul Dew is! THERE ISN'T ONE HERE!"
"HUH?" Melanie and Roy said, sweat dropping at that fact.
"But, anyway, thank you for ridding me of those pests. Please, take this."
Stern gave them a bag of candy, wrapped in blue plastic.
"What's this?" Roy queried.
"Rare Candies. They help level up Pokemon. There's about… fifty right there in that bag. Enjoy!" Stern walked off.
Roy and Melanie retired to the Pokemon Center after a dinner that Capt. Stern made for the two to thank 'em. Machop, Nosepass, and the other Pokemon were all being healed, and so were their trainers.
