Author: Okay, before I start this next Chapter, I would just like to honor those who helped me out as of April 24 noon:
Katie Legends
Thank-a you, thank-a you! Enough with-a the Italiano accent-a. Okay? Okay. This Chapter includes three parts of a previously-thought-by-me trio of Chapters.
CHAPTER 17:
Vs. Team Eon Again
Pt. 1
Roy and Melanie had just gotten to the Day Care Center as the Grunts descended onto the ground from the chopper, one Grunt blue; the other red. Roy and Melanie bypassed the Day Care owner, rushing through a path leading into the forest area. The red Grunt dropped down from a tree branch, startling our heroes. (Sound familiar? Pokemon Colosseum or XD, perhaps? Hmmmmmmm?)
"Stop, you two! I challenge ya' both to a double battle!" she shouted, taking out two Poke Balls.
"Sheesh… Okay, okay, we'll battle! Just don't expect Mel and I ta' finish it up fast!" Roy sighed, taking out his Net Ball.
"Let's do it, Roy!" Melanie yelled, taking out one of her Aqua Balls.
"Oh, I see you're of Team Aqua, 'Melanie'!" the Grunt realized. (Note: I'll just go ahead and put her name: Alexis.)
"USED TO BE! GRR! FACE MY WRATH!" Melanie snarled, her head turning into a wolf-evil-ram's head, causing Alexis and Roy to sweatdrop.
"Save it for the battle, Mel. Anyway, I choose you Masquerain!" Roy threw his Net Ball.
"Mas-quer!" Masquerain chirped, flipping in the air.
"Okay, go, Poochyena!" Melanie shouted, throwing her Aqua Ball.
"Pooch!" Poochyena barked.
"Oh, that's nothin'! Claydol, Solrock, bring me, and more importantly my boss, victory!"
"Solr-r-r-r!" Solrock trilled. It was a Rock/Psychic element that looked like an orange sun with yellow rocks around it edge, along with same-shade-of-yellow protrusions from his edges, numbering in eight. It had red pupils and the rest of the barely open eyes black, and yellow rocks were in a line on the front in a ridge.
"Clay-dooool!" Claydol howled. It was a Ground/Psychic element had and eight big, red eyes near the top of its head in a circle, and yellow circles between them. A white object lined the top design. Its two brown hands were only spheres with an appendage coming out from them. It had two white designs on its big, brown belly and had a point on the tip of his head.
Battle statistics: This is a three-on-three double battle with no time limit. No substitutions can be made.
Roy's Masquerain and Melanie's Poochyena vs. T.E.G. Alexis' Claydol and Solrock
BATTLE COMMENCE!
"Solrock! Start with Flamethrower!" Alexis stated.
A small ball of fire formed in front of Solrock, which blasted out toward Masquerain!
"Masquerain! Counter it with Water Pulse!" Roy cried.
Masquerain shot blue water rings at the beam of fire, dissolving both in a cloud of steam. A super effective strike was avoided.
"Claydol, use Ice Beam!"
A pale blue thunderbolt style beam shot out at Poochyena, who easily dodged with its quick speed, leaving a frozen patch of grass.
"WOW! A Ground Pokemon with an Ice-Type move! Impressive! However, not as impressive as my Poochyena's… SHADOW BALL!" Melanie thundered.
A crackling blob of ghostly black energy formed in Poochyena's mouth, which he lobbed at Claydol, who took little damage due to its high Def, regardless of the super effectiveness.
"Good, Mel. Masquerain! Water Pulse and then Silver Wind!"
Just as before, three watery rings shot toward Claydol, formed from a ball of water in front of Masquerain's mouth. The Water attack did a bit of damage, dropping Claydol's HP into the yellows. Then a silver colored ball formed between Masquerain's eye-ish wings, which turned into a concentrated windstorm of bug power, being the third super effective strike to hit Claydol.
"Claydol! Keep on battling!" Alexis shouted, clenching her fist.
"Poochyena, finish Claydol with your Bite Attack!" Melanie ordered.
Poochyena dashed at Claydol, fangs glowing a sinister purple. It bit down, on the massive clay doll, which brought it down!
"Claydol, no!" Alexis screamed, seeing it lose its floating powers. She growled as she recalled her fainted Pokemon, it beaming back to its Ball in red light. After putting the Poke Ball back in her belt, she held out her last one, a Poke Ball that was red on the bottom and blue on the top, with a red crimson E on the blue part, and a cobalt blue upside-down E on the bottom part. White, swirly clouds adorned both the top and bottom. (The Eon Ball. How obvious. It's good for Psychic-, Dragon-, and Flying-Types, obviously. It's also good for Absol, which "I'll" explain in a later Chapter. Moreover, how obvious that I'm putting obvious in each sentence here. How obvious it is for me to rant about its obviousness! I mean it's really obvious! It's really, really obvious! Pant pant)
"Meet the Pokemon that goes in perfection with Solrock! Lunatone, let's win!" She threw the Eon Ball, which popped open to reveal a Lunatone, a Psychic/Rock, crescent moon shaped Pokemon with a few craters on it, a pointed, symmetrical nose, and a black line between the nose's "halves" leading to a big black eye with a red iris and black pupil.
"Lun!" it called out.
Roy's Masquerain and Melanie's Poochyena vs. T.E.G. Alexis' Lunatone and Solrock
BATTLE COMMENCE!
"Masquerain! Use Bubblebeam!" Roy said.
Masquerain spat an abundance of blue bubbles at both Solrock and Lunatone. The attack made them both spin around a little bit, which did a bit more damage to Solrock than Lunatone, due to the difference in Sp. Def.
"Oh, yeah? Solrock! Solarbeam! Lunatone, use Ice Beam!" Alexis shouted.
Solrock glowed in green-white light, gathering sunlight. A ball of ice formed in front of Lunatone's nose. When both attacks charged a bit, Solarbeam zoomed toward Poochyena, glowing in white light with an outline of green; the blue lightning bolt of Ice Beam shot toward Masquerain. Both hits had a good chance of knocking their targets out…
…
HOWEVER! The two attacks met about midway, countering and dissolving each other! This caused Roy and Melanie to sweat drop.
"NO FAIR! WAAAAH!" Alexis bawled.
"Some Grunt… Poochyena, use Bite on Solrock!"
Poochyena leapt at Solrock and bit down with sinisterly glowing fangs. The attack was critical, presenting a serious problem for Solrock: its HP was red!
"Masquerain, use Bubble on Lunatone!"
Masquerain shot a few bubbles at Lunatone. Wow.
"Nice try! Lunatone, use Rock Throw!"
Lunatone enlarged its eyes, forcing a few small rocks to bash Poochyena. Melanie could tell Poochyena had almost had enough… When suddenly, it began to shine in bright white light!
"My Poochyena!" she cried.
"Melanie, it's…" Roy couldn't finish, for before them all stood a bigger canine Pokemon with a long, black tail and a shaggy black coat, black furred legs with a gray underside, piercing red and orange eyes and black markings on the face, along with white claws. It howled:
"YENAAAAAAAA!" It had evolved into a Mightyena!
"Great! Mightyena, ready to fight?" Melanie asked.
"Yen-a!" was the response.
"Okay! Mightyena… Use Crunch on Solrock!"
Mightyena's fangs glowed a sinister, dark purple, and the dark color intensified when he bit down on Solrock, who fainted once it was released from Mightyena's jaws!
"Good job, Mightyena!" Melanie called.
"Yena!" Mightyena snarled back, smiling.
"Solrock! Grr! Return." Alexis growled, having her not-floating Solrock beam back to its Ball.
"Lunatone, use Ice Beam!"
"Masquerain, Silver Wind!"
Lunatone shot a pale blue blast out, while Masquerain shot out silver particles. When both attacks collided, they exploded, resulting in the knockout of… Lunatone! Roy and Melanie won!
"NOOO! Now the boss is gonna chew my butt! You'll pay for this!" Alexis took off after recalling her Lunatone.
"Well, Roy, one down." Melanie sighed, recalling Mightyena.
"Let's get the rest, Mel." Roy said, recalling his Masquerain.
The two ran on, coming out of the forest.
Pt. 2
Roy and Melanie had come to a pasture with a small pond in the middle.
"It's beautiful!" Melanie gasped.
"Yeah, but I see the Grunt…" Roy muttered, spying a Clan Blue Eon Grunt.
"AHA! There you two are! I challenge you to a Pokemon battle!" she said. "Da name is Lesley!"
Melanie and Roy were guffawing by the time she got up out of the tall gold grass.
"What!"
Roy pointed to a Tentacool on Lesley's head.
"Grr…! Off with you!" She threw it back into the nearby pond.
"NOO! I wanted ta' eat dat…" Roy sobbed.
(Author's note: To those Yu-Gi-Oh! fans that read this, I stole that from, like… Episode 7: Attack from the Deep. I TAKE NO CREDIT!)
"Let's try that again. Da name is Lesley! I challenge you to a Pokemon battle!"
"We know." Roy and Melanie replied flatly in unison, with sweat drops on their heads.
"Grr! YOU DARE MOCK ME! That's it! I choose… Xatu and Altaria!"
"Al-tar-i-a!" Altaria chirped. It had cottony, white, fluffy wings that covered part of the body, white cheeks and a small beak, and the rest of the body was blue, including the two head "ribbons", along with a neat split tail.
"Xa. Xa-xa-xa-xa-xatu." murmured Xatu, flapping his black and red striped, white wings. Its body was green with a few yellow and black markings, and between its wings were two small red eyes. Its feet were red, and only had one claw, and the green head had a yellow beak and red head feathers.
'Okay, since she's using Flying-types, along with a Flying/Dragon, I'll use… Carvanha." Melanie pondered.
'Since both are Flying elements, I'll use Nosepass.' Roy thought.
"Nosepass! Do it!"
"Nose-pass!" Nosepass grunted.
"Carvanha, let's do it!"
"Carvanh!" Carvanha shouted.
Battle statistics: This is a three-on-three double battle with no time limit or substitutions.
Roy's Nosepass and Melanie's Carvanha vs. T.E.G. Lesley's Xatu and Altaria
BATTLE COMMENCE!
"Carvanha, use Ice Beam on Altaria!"
Carvanha launched an icy blue thunderbolt at Altaria. The attack did a lot of damage, because it was 4 times as effective, taking Altaria's HP almost into the reds on the first strike!
"Nosepass! Use Rock Slide!"
Nosepass stomped the ground, making rocks fly up and hit Altaria and Xatu! And, BAM! Altaria had fainted!
"YES! Nosepass, you are so strong!"
"Altaria… you tried. Return." Altaria beamed back to its Poke Ball at Lesley's command.
"Okay, Tropius, I'm counting on you!" Lesley shouted, throwing an Eon Ball.
"Trop!" Tropius growled as it landed. It was a big Pokemon, having a brown body, long neck, and small legs. A "neckpiece" of leaves adorned the base of its neck, and part of the head was green as well. A few bananas dangled from his throat, a shade of yellow like his feet. Lastly, four leaves on Tropius' back served as wings.
"Oh, wow. So ya got a bigger bird. Oh, joy." Roy mocked.
"We're still gonna mop the field wichya!" Melanie shouted.
Roy's Nosepass and Melanie's Carvanha vs. T.E.G. Lesley's Tropius and Xatu
BATTLE COMMENCE!
"Tropius, Xatu, both of you use Giga Drain!"
"XATU KNOWS GIGA DRAIN!" Roy cried.
It was true; a green ball of energy appeared in front of both Xatu and Tropius, which made energy from Nosepass and Carvanha stream into it. The powerful Grass attacks almost made them faint! Moreover, Xatu's wounds were healed!
"You're doing well, Carvanha! Ice Beam!" Melanie ordered.
Carvanha mustered up the strength to shoot a light blue beam at Tropius. The attack was very very effective, bringing Tropius into the reds!
"Nosepass, use…" Roy began.
'Grr…' he thought. 'What attack will help me out with this! I know there's an attack Nosepass has that's good against Tropius other than Rock Slide, which might not hit… Ooh… hmm… Wait a minute… Fire Punch'll do it... However, does Nosepass know it? Can he use it? I'll find out!'
"Nosepass! Try using Fire Punch!"
Nosepass grunted, and his hand glowed reddish… AND IGNITED! He charged at Tropius, at a slow speed, but made a hit! Tropius was knocked out! It worked!
"Nosepass, you did it!" Roy cheered.
"Tropius, come back!" Lesley called, making Tropius return to its Eon Ball.
"Xatu, finish off that little fish! Use Drill Peck!" (Note: That's one of Natu's egg moves.)
Xatu's yellow beak began spinning, and he dove in toward Carvanha!
"Bad move, Lesley! Carvanha, Ice Beam attack!" Melanie shouted.
Carvanha managed to conjure up another Ice Beam attack, blasting Xatu. The attack worked fully, resulting in yet another win!
Lesley recalled her Pokemon, and ran away. Roy and Melanie knew the Admin was next, so after a few Super Potions and such on all their Pokemon, they carried on, where they…
Pt. 3
…Came into a mountainous area, seeing the Admin at the top. It was a man, about 20, and the color pattern for his clothing was the opposite the woman Roy and Melanie met with back in Slateport.
"I've been awaiting you. Ha ha ha ha…" the Admin chuckled when they got to him.
"Grr! We'll see who laughs at who when we trounce you! Prepare for a most humiliating defeat!" Roy shouted.
"Ha ha… I'm not laughing at you; with you."
"We're not laughing, pally." Melanie spat.
"You may call me Chazz. Not 'pally'. I'm laughing with you because, boy…"
"ROY. Not BOY." Roy growled, thinking of Lovrina.
"Whatever, 'Roy'. You and I both know that you are wasting your efforts. You should join Team Eon; our boss would grant you Elite since you defeated the Admin/ Executive back in Slateport."
"FORGET IT. JUST BATTLE!"
"Okay, single battle mode. You vs. me! Ninjask, do it!"
"Nin-ja-ja-jask!" buzzed Ninjask. It was a bug with two gray claws, four white, red-tipped wings that beat faster than the eye can see, and had a bee-like body. The head was gold-bronze with two beady red eyes. The abdomen was black, with no legs. A black stripe was on the gold part of the back.
"Oh, yeah? Hey, how many Pokemon will we be usin'?" Roy asked.
"Four each."
"Um… Then there's a problem… I only have three. Unless… Mel, can I borrow a Pokemon?"
Melanie tossed her Marshtomp to him, and Roy put it on his Poke Ball Belt. TEMPORARILY.
"Okay, I choose Masquerain!"
"Masquerain!" chirped his Bug/Flying element.
Battle statistics: This will be a four-on-four single mode (For once.) Pokemon battle (Duh.) with no time limit or substitutions.
Roy's Masquerain vs. T.E.A. Chazz's Ninjask
BATTLE COMMENCE!
"Okay, Masquerain! Use Ice Beam!" Roy ordered.
Masquerain shot a blue, icy beam at Ninjask, hoping to deliver a super effective hit.
"Ninjask! Fire Hyper Beam!" Chazz shouted.
Ninjask formed a golden energy ball between its claws, which charged up. Once charged enough, it shot out in a beautiful, yet deadly golden blast. The Ice Beam and Hyper Beam collided, creating an explosion. Through the smoke Roy and Chazz saw that each beam bounce back at the user! The Hyper Beam hit Ninjask, causing its HP to drop into the reds! Masquerain's, on the other hand, had only gone into the yellows but almost red.
"HA! Take that Chazz! Masquerain, use Water Pulse!"
Masquerain squirted out several big rings of water, which easily hit the stunned-for-a-bit Ninjask. It fainted!
"Good job, Masquerain!"
"Masq!" Masquerain chirped back.
"Good Ninjask. Return." Chazz's Pokemon was recalled, beaming back to the Eon Ball.
"Okay, now for my second Pokemon! Gooo! Vibrava!"
"Vi-bra!" Vibrava shouted. It was a strange Dragon/Ground Pokemon, with two green and black wings that had doubles, a yellow dragonfly-like body, two small green and black wings on the tail tip, two yellow antennas, and four legs with concave-up feet.
"Okay, I'll still wipe the mountain with ya'! So what if you have a Dragon-Type?" Roy yelled.
Roy's Masquerain vs. T.E.A. Chazz's Vibrava
BATTLE COMMENCE!
"I'll make the first strike! Vibrava, use Dragonbreath!"
Vibrava opened its mouth, releasing dragon breath-smelling green flames. They hit against Masquerain, forcing it to fall to the ground.
"Masquerain! C'mon, get up!" Roy cried.
Masquerain moaned meekly, but still managed to get back up into the air.
"YES! Masquerain, use Ice Beam!"
Masquerain sent a beam of ice at Vibrava. The attack would knock it out no doubt, if it hit…
"Oh, we're not falling for that again! Vibrava, use Solarbeam!"
Between Vibrava's green wings materialized a green and white ball, which needed to charge. Once enough solar energy was absorbed, the attack shot out, meeting Ice Beam. Instead of an explosion, both attacks were even, pushing back and forth against each other. However, Roy had it covered…
"Masquerain, add Icy Wind!"
Masquerain kept up Ice Beam and also shot out a bitter cold wind. It went around Ice Beam and Solarbeam, hitting Vibrava for ½ of its max HP! Since Solarbeam ceased because Vibrava was resting a little, Ice Beam made contact, getting the rest of its HP!
"Way ta' go, Masquerain! You did it!" Roy cheered happily.
"Vibrava is out, but my next Pokemon won't be! I choose Crobat!"
"Cr-cro!" Crobat snarled. It had four wings that were green with a purple outline, pointy purple ears, claws on the top two wings, and a purple body with white teeth on it, in a triangular shape.
Roy's Masquerain vs. Chazz's Crobat
BATTLE COMMENCE!
"Masquerain, go and use Quick Attack!"
Masquerain charged at his Poison/Flying enemy, white light flying behind him.
"Crobat… Wait for it…" Chazz whispered. Crobat's yellow eyes closed…
Masquerain was a foot away when Chazz shouted, "CROBAT! USE SLUDGE BOMB!"
A toxic purple ball of sludge formed in Crobat's mouth, which shot out into several balls, bombarding Masquerain! The attack was enough to make him faint.
"Good job, Masquerain. Return." Roy recalled his Pokemon, thanking it.
"Okay, Nosepass, c'mon out!"
"Nose-pass!" Nosepass shouted when it landed on the ground.
Roy's Nosepass vs. T.E.A. Chazz's Crobat
BATTLE COMMENCE!
"Nosepass, use Rock Slide and Thunderpunch in a combo!" Roy shouted.
Nosepass bellowed, making some big rocks pound Crobat, for a super effective hit. Then Nosepass' fist glowed yellow, and he punched Crobat for another super hit! It all added up to two letters: K and O.
"NO CROBAT!" Chazz snarled, surprised a Nosepass could take it out. "Return."
Crobat turned to red energy, beaming back to his Poke Ball.
"Roy, I saved the best for last. I am a near Elite Eon; that means I'm one of the strongest members. Meet my Psychic Pokemon! Grr… ALAKAZAM!"
He threw an Eon Ball, and out came a big, yellow, human-like Pokemon. It had an upside-down star-shaped face, a long mustache, yellow arms and legs with brown elbows and knees, three foot claws, a brown upper body (Namely the chest), and two silver spoons in his hands.
Roy's Nosepass vs. T.E.A. Chazz's Alakazam
BATTLE COMMENCE!
"Alakazam! Use Psychic!"
Alakazam's spoons began glowing blue by using telekinetic power. Alakazam threw even Nosepass around! The attack nearly KO'd him!
"Nosepass! Hang on! Um… Use your Rock Slide!"
Nosepass bellowed again, causing more rocks to fall on Alakazam. The attack took him into the yellows on the HP bar, due to the low DEF.
"Ha! Alakazam, use Psychic again!"
Alakazam this time sent a wave of psychic energy at Nosepass, enveloping and KO'ing.
"Good, Nosepass. Come back." Roy withdrew his Rock-Type Pokemon, and grabbed his Aqua Ball.
"Okay, that's it. Marshtomp, you better listen to me!" Roy yelled.
"Marsh!" Melanie's Marshtomp called.
Roy's (Melanie's) Marshtomp vs. T.E.A. Chazz's Alakazam
BATTLE COMMENCE!
"Marshtomp, blast him with your Water Gun!"
"Marsh." Marshtomp huffed, crossing his arms and returning to his Poke Ball by himself.
"What the!" Roy screamed, throwing the Ball back to Melanie.
"Oh, sorry Roy. It only listens to me…" Melanie explained, blushing.
"Oh, great. Machop, I choose you." Roy mumbled unenthusiastically.
"Mach!" Machop shouted when he came out of his Ball.
Roy's probably-gonna-lose-to-Chazz Machop vs. T.E.A. Chazz's undefeatable and unbeatable Alakazam
BATTLE COMMENCE!
"Machop, use Focus Energy."
Machop focused his muscles, boosting Critical Hit ratio.
"Now Bulk Up."
Machop drew in a deep breath, upping Attack and Defense.
"Now use Mega Punch."
Machop's fist began glowing white, and he leapt at Alakazam. The attack was critical, nearly KO'ing the great Psychic-Type!
"Big deal! Alakazam, destroy him with Confusion!"
Alakazam shot waves of Psychic energy at Machop, which caused some damage, reducing HP by about ¼.
"Machop! I believe you can win this now! Use Cross Chop!" Roy yelled, gaining confidence.
Machop's hands formed an X, glowing brightly.
"Alakazam, attack with Shock Wave!"
Alakazam's spoons shone yellow, shooting blue thunderbolts out. The unavoidable electric move stopped Cross Chop, and making Machop's HP half of its MAX.
"No, Machop! Grr… You can do it!"
"No you can't! Psychic, Alakazam!" Chazz yelled.
Bigger psychic waves rushed at Machop, making him fa...
FALL OVER! HA HA! GOTCHA! Machop's HP amount was in the deep reds!
"Machop! Use Mega Punch!"
Machop again leapt at his foe, fist glowing brightly.
"Alakazam, use Ice Punch!"
Alakazam's fist began glowing an icy blue, and he dashed at Machop! The two collided, both shrieking. A big cloud of smoke arose from the clash, and only one would probably come out okay…
…
…
…
It was…
Alakazam! HE won! Or did he… just when Chazz was about to start gloating, a bright sheen arose from the dust, and out came a new Pokemon. It was light purple with three small yellow head crests, a black belt with a gold oval on it, black wrestler's pants, and three red lines on each enormously muscular arm.
"What is that thing!" Melanie shrieked.
"It's my… Machop… it…" The rest of Roy's speech trailed off.
"MA-CHOKE!" shouted the Pokemon.
"He… Machop evolved! I can't believe it! He's a Machoke!" Roy cheered.
"But let's party later! Machoke, bring us victory! Use Dynamicpunch!"
Machoke's fist shone white, and he spun his arm while coming toward the weakened Alakazam. He knocked for a loop, literally, KO'ing the mighty Pokemon!
"YESSS! WE WON!" Roy thundered as Chazz recalled his Pokemon and fled, about to get on his blue-red motorbike.
"THIS ISN'T OVER! I'll see you later, and don't forget this: We still got some Pokemon!" Chazz started his vehicle, thundering away.
"Yes! We did it, Machoke!" Roy recalled Machoke and headed back with Melanie to the Mauville Pokemon Center. On the way back, for getting rid of Team Eon, the Day Care Man gave Melanie a blue-spotted egg, saying it might be a Water Pokemon. They reached Mauville and rested for tomorrow.
Author: I never thought I'd get this thing done! WHEW! Oh, and this is the longest Chapter yet! 81.0 KB! This also marks the 600 KB mark for my whole story! I rock, huh? No. Next Chapter is Route 117, where Roy meets… I can't say that, no matter how much ya' beg. I WON'T TELL YOU IN A REPLY! Sorry. Anyway, Review!
