Please heed these instructions!
Due to the ever-worsening situation regarding the coronavirus outbreak, I'm going to have to remind you all about the basic steps you should take if you want to stay healthy
-Wash hands often with soap and water for 20-30 seconds at a time, and/or use hand sanitizer
-Avoid close contact with people who are sick
-Keep your hands away from nose, eyes, and mouth (I can't imagine how difficult this part is probably going to be)
-Eat well, get adequate rest, and exercise regularly
-Get a flu shot if you haven't already and are able to
And if you ARE sick (I hope you get better if you are), please be a good sport and save other folks the trouble of getting sick. You can do this by:
-Covering your mouth and nose with your sleeve, elbow, or a tissue whenever you sneeze or cough
-Not sharing food and drinks with others
-Avoiding touching your mouth, nose, and eyes (Again, I understand this is probably going to be difficult)
-Avoiding close contact with others
-Cleaning and disinfecting surfaces and objects
-Staying at home if you're unwell (PRIORITY NUMBER ONE!)
-Staying calm and keeping yourself well-informed (My personal advice)
If you already know this, then great! If you didn't know any of this beforehand, please keep that information in mind as we all go through this trying time. It's a realm of unknowns at this point, and I wish myself and all of humanity well. Try to stay safe trust me I've had Covid twice now.

Episode 14: Quarter Finals I "
A Rotom Drone flew high into the air as it then flashed a screen showing 8 pictures of Trainers.
The Battle Island Tournament has now concluded! These 8 Trainers will be moving onto the final tournament, Ash Ketchum
Ash and Pikachu fist bumped each other in celebration. "We did it!"
Gary Oak
Gary flicked his nose with his thumb as he smirked. "Looks like I still got it."
Paul Shinji
Paul placed his hands into the pockets of his jacket as he smirked. "Hmph course I did."
Virgil Wayland
"Alright, mission complete for Team Eevee" Said Virgil as he and Eevee fist pumped.
Amber Hasuto
"We did it Cinderace!" Said the lightly pale girl with gray eyes as her Cinderace nods in agreement.
Ryouga Kurogane
Ryouga was actually asleep right now under the shade of a tree with a Zoroark sleeping next to him.
Alain Kenshō
Alain smiled as he saw that Ash had made into the top 8.
and Misty Waterflower
That last name was a shock to Ash and Pikachu. "Misty is in this tournament!?"
"Damn right I am, honestly why am I not surprised that your only focus was on battling." Said a voice to which when Ash turned around saw that it was Misty.
"Looks like we're both moving onto the final tournament." she said with a smile.
Ash then smiled back at her. "Guess so."
We will now announce the match-ups for the Quarter Finals which will be 3 on 3 battles!
With that the screen then shuffled all of the pictures before placing all of them into brackets.
Ash and Misty both had a look of surprise as they saw the brackets.
"How's that?" Said Misty breaking Ash out of his stupor as he looked at her.
"It seems your time in this tournament is over. Ash." She then faced him with a confident look on her face.
"...This won't be like our Gym Battle."
Ash then quickly had a determined look on his face as he clenched his fist in front of her. "Y-yeah! I was just thinking the same thing...!
Sevii Islands Tournament Quarter Finals
Amber Hasuto Vs Virgil Waylend
Ash Ketchum Vs Misty Waterflower
Gary Oak Vs Paul Shinji
Ryouga Kurogane Vs Alain Kenshō
The Quarter Finalists for the Battle Islands Tournament have been decided. Which of these eight trainers will come out on top and become the Battle Island Champion?
Ladies and Gentlemen welcome to the Quarter Finals of the Sevii Islands Tournament! Announced the Drone Rotom
As Reginald finished it's announcement two trainers began to approach the battlefield on opposite sides one with an Eevee on their shoulder and a Cinderace walking side by side with the other.
"On the left we have Amber Hasuto from the Johto Region and the right we have Virgil Wayland from the Unova Region."
"May the best trainer win!" Said Virgil.
Amber adjusts her dark blue cap with a little rabbit tail in back. "Well don't you have good sportsmanship… let's do it!"
"Eevee!/Cinderace!" Both Pokémon say in determination.
Trainers release your Pokémon at the same time! 3!...2!...1!
"Alright Umbreon Mission Start!"
"Let's throw down and win this Sacim!
"Umbreon!" It said crouching down.
"Starrraptorrrr!" It cried raising its wings up into the air with its head up
Battle Start!
"Umbreon, use Double Team!" Shouted Virgil.
"Umbreon!"
Umbreon then split itself into multiple copies of itself surrounding Staraptor.
"Sacim, you know what to do. Show off your stuff!" Says Amber.
Staraptor begins to do a twirl as it leaps into the air surrounding all the opposing Umbreons with feathers as it now flies
"Use Work Up!" Counters Virgil.
All the Umbreons give off a reddish orange glow.
"Use Screech!"
All the Umbreons lift their heads up as they let out a loud yell from all sides as it causes Staraptor to slightly lose focus with a face of discomfort and frustration.
"You call that a voice? Use Echoed Voice!" Said Amber.
"Staraptorrrr!" It yelled out destroying all of the copies, then after doing so gives what appears to be an equivalent to a middle feather with it's right wing as it laughs at Umbreon causing it to get very angry while making Virgil sweatdrop before it starts acting dizzy as birds fly over it's head due to now being confused.
"Umbreon, use Zap Cannon!" Said Virgil.
Umbreon makes a ball of electricity from its mouth as it's moving around confused and shoots it at Staraptor but fortunately it zooms right past it making the opposing Pokémon point and laugh.
Amber saw that while the attack missed, but due to the confusion on Umbreon it suddenly curves around surprising her.
"Sacim, watch out!" Said Amber.
But it was too late, as the Staraptor turned around it was hit with a super effective Zap Cannon, shocking the bird and causing it to fall down to the ground with a heavy thud.
It was then Umbreon blinked as its confusion wore off.
Seeing the opportunity Virgil decides to finish it. "Giga Impact!"
Umbreon nods its head to the command and begins focusing directly on the Staraptor who is struggling to get up from the ground. The rings on Umbreon's body lightly glow, letting out a faint energy and then quickly charges at it!
"Staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar!" The attack lands, causing a massive explosion of yellow light surrounding the two Pokemon. With the light dissipating, the crowd sees that Umbreon was standing directly on top of the knocked-out Staraptor.
The Drone Rotom then went close to Staraptor to confirm it's condition. Staraptor is unable to battle. Umbreon wins.
"Good job Umbreon, that's one down!" Praised Virgil, snapping his fingers with a smile.
"Umbreon!"
"Return." Said Amber, recalling Sacim while letting out a sigh. "This is what happens when you show-off in front of a crowd... but you did ya best."
She looked at one of her Pokeballs, noticing one of them wiggling around almost wanting to battle. "...Not today Mars." Amber grabs another pokeball and smiles.
"Alright! Mioto it's your time to shine!" She tosses out the Pokéball and out comes a bipedal, feline Pokémon with primarily yellow and black fur... but it seemed almost timid as it looked around shyly.
From the waiting room Ash, Misty and almost all the other competitors are watching the battle on the monitor all in shock.
No data! No data! Unkown Pokémon detected! Said Rotomdex as it floats next to Ash
"Who's that Pokémon?!" Said Ash
"I've never seen anything like it." Said Misty.
"It's name is Zeraora, a Mythical Pokémon but I never expected to see one in person before." Commented Gary as he goes on his phone and sends a quick message to his grandfather.
Paul and Alain didn't make any comment as they too were shocked but didn't show it on their faces.
Inside a dark room in the center a Zoroark is sitting in front of the TV watching the battle intently while its trainer is currently in bed still asleep as you can hear faint snores from him as his bandaged covered arm and his leg sticking out.
"Why yes I would like to have fries with that." He said in his sleep.
Zeraora's fur is thinner and black on its lower legs, lower body, upper arms, and face, and is thicker and yellow everywhere else. There is also a zigzagging black stripe on each thigh and two more stripes on each forearm. There are small tufts of light blue fur on its chest and a longer tuft on its also has a single, lightning bolt-shaped blue whisker on each cheek. A long, ponytail-like or tail-like bunch of fur extends from between its shoulders, it has large ears with black insides and blue eyes. Its forepaws have four clawed fingers and light blue pads, while its hind paws have only three clawed toes.
"I've never seen that Pokémon before." Said Virgil, shocked.
Umbreon was on guard as it looked directly at this mysterious Pokémon before it. Meanwhile Zeraora looks down to the ground, avoiding eye contact with Umbreon.
"Alright Mioto, I understand that a lot of eyes are on you, but you can do it!" Said Amber, trying to encourage her Pokémon.
"Okay Umbreon! Hit them with a Dark Pulse!" Umbreon nods at the command then begins to let out a shockwave of dark energy along the ground!
"Zera?!" Mioto didn't even need to be commanded, as it leapt into the air to dodge the attack.
"Alright! Mioto let it have it with a Mega Kick!" Amber thrusts her fist into the air.
Mioto then spun around in the air, doing a front-flip and came flying towards the Umbreon with a Mega Kick. And due to its blinding speeds, the kick connects and it leaps off the Pokémon's small forehead... but the kick-off had enough force to hurl Umbreon into a wall!
"U-Umbreon!" Virgil was surprised by the power behind that Mega Kick, but Umbreon wasn't out of the battle yet! With a look of anger on its face, Virgil gets pumped up. "Okay Umbreon, we gotta wrap this up quick! Use Last Resort now!"
It began generating energy, the rings on its body glowing intensely as it let out a starry blast directly at Zeraora!
"Mioto, Extreme Speed on the double!" Amber said.
With listening to its training, the Zeraora in a blink of an eye instantly appeared right in front of the Umbreon. Mioto felt a sting of sadness as it looked down at the Umbreon, not wanting to finish it off too badly, electricity began generating along its fist and punched Umbreon and knocked it out.
The Drone Rotom went up to Umbreon in order to see its condition before it started beeping as its eyes quickly flashed.
Data base updated! Umbreon is unable to battle Zeraora wins.
Amber could notice Mioto not exactly liking the battle. "...I understand Mioto, but we gotta keep up the fight!" She says, clenching her fist.
"Return, Umbreon!" The Umbreon returns to its Pokéball with a smile on his face. "That Pokémon of yours is really strong Amber, I haven't seen anything like it... but even still... Let's go Jolteon!" Throwing out another ball, out came Jolteon, releasing electricity as it readied itself for battle.
Without a moment to lose, Jolteon rushes forward towards Zeraora with great speed. "Alright! Mioto show em your stuff!"
Zeraora covers it fist with electricity and runs in to deliver a heavy blow... but, the Jolteon absorbs the punch.
"My Jolteon can take on any electric type attack, now Jolteon! Counterattack with Iron Tail!" After taking the punch, Pokémon would twirl around and smack Mioto with it.
"Oh no, Mioto!" Amber cried out as Zeraora took the attack. It looked around itself and couldn't see the Jolteon anywhere!
"If your Pokémon lacks the will to battle... then it maybe it shouldn't be battling at all! Now, come from the ground Jolteon!" Virgil points towards the sky and the Pokémon shoots out underneath Zeraora like a spinning drill, tackling the yellow cat and sending them straight into the air.
"Zerrrra!"
And then sends them straight back down into the ground. The crowd couldn't see as dust came from the impact, but as it settled, Jolteon was standing on top of the unconscious Zeraora.
Zeraora is unable to battle, Jolteon wins!
"...You did your best, Mioto." As Jolteon returns to Virgil's side, Amber returns the Zeraora into its Pokéball.
"Cinder!" Without much of a word from her trainer, Cinderace would leap onto the battlefield.
"Oh! Looks like your partner has a lot of fight in them… good! Jolteon, Quick Attack to close the distance!"
The Jolteon came at Cinderace like a bolt of lightning, but Amber merely smiled when it came dashing towards her partner.
"Let's meet them head on Saki, Sucker Punch!"
"Cinder!" The blazing rabbit counters Jolteon's Quick Attack with a swift destructive punch to the Pokémon's face.
"It's not over yet! You know what to do Saki!" Amber would raise her hand into the air as if declaring this being the finisher.
Not skipping a beat, the Cinderace would continue its attack on Jolteon. "Ciiiiiiinnnnnnder!" Releasing two powerful kicks, one sending the thunder beast into the air.
The rabbit follows up leaping high into the air and delivering a powerful axe kick to send the Jolteon back into the ground, creating a crater as it hits the ground.
"J-Jolt…" It said with swirls in its eyes
Jolteon is unable to battle, Cinderace wins!
Virgil was caught off-guard by that combination attack, he thought for sure that the rabbit wouldn't pack that much of a punch.
"Alright, take your rest my friend… Jolteon return!" He puts Jolteon back into his Pokéball. And the Eevee on his shoulder looked prime and ready to fight!
"Eevee!" The Pokémon leaped onto the battlefield.
Virgil takes in a deep breath and thrusts his fist forward towards Amber and Cinderace. "You'll be surprised what this little one can do! Come on, let's go Eevee!"
The little Pokémon rushes forward towards Cinderace.
"Sending out such a weak… No! Can't think like that…" Amber thought, shaking her head. "We'll match them Saki, Flame Charge!"
"Cinder!" The rabbit coats itself in flames as it charges straight towards Eevee!
"We got you! Glitzy Glow!" Eevee began to coat itself in psychic energy, before unleashing it as a powerful wave!
"Veeeeeee!"
The attack lands its mark on Cinderace, the flames wrapped around its body disappearing as the rabbit fumbles onto the ground, but quickly recovers as it gets back on its feet!
"What the…?! I have never seen an Eevee use any attack like that. Saki, we gotta stay on our toes!"
"Cinder!" The rabbit began generating a flame ball in its right hand before juggling with its feet like a soccer ball.
"I don't know what you're trying to pull but we won't let you get away with it! Eevee, Buzzy Buzz!"
"Eeveeeeeee!" The brown fox began generating electricity, its fur getting all prickly as it shot out lightning from its body!
Cinderace dodges the attack, dribbling the fireball out of the way with excellent handling.
"Ciiiiiiinnnnnnder!"
And kicks the ball straight at Eevee.
"Oh no! Eevee you gotta dodge it!" But the Pyro Ball was too fast and as it hit Eevee it was sent flying.
"Veeeeeeeeeee!" Virgil would then catch Eevee.
"Can you still fight little buddy?"
"Eevee!" Despite taking such a devastating hit the little guy would get on Virgil's shoulder.
"Right… let's hit them with our strongest technique!" Virgil would twirl around and launch Eevee into the sky. "Veevee Volley!"
"VEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" The Eevee came down towards Cinderace in blinding speed, coated with various energies from the potential types it can become. There was just no way Cinderace would be able to dodge this attack!
"AH! Saki we gotta match it! Let's do it, Sacred Sword!"
With quick thinking, Cinderace clasp its hands together and separates them to bring forth a flaming sword! And leaps towards Eevee.
The two clash creating a massive explosion and both Pokémon fall onto the ground… battered and hurt.
The Rotom Drone flew close to better see the Pokemons conditions
Oh! It's seems that both Pokém-
The Drone Rotom stopped itself as Cinderace slowly got up, raising its arm into the air in a triumphant pose.
Ah, Cinderace is still standing! Which means Amber has won this battle!
Each trainer would go to their respective partners.
"V-Veee…" Virgil picks up his Eevee, smiling at her.
"You did good… really good Eevee. I couldn't be prouder of you girl." He would look over to Cinderace and Amber. "Those two are really in-sync with each other… and brave too, charging in like that."
"We did it!" Amber would pat Saki on its head. "It'll only get tougher from here… but I know we can handle it, partner!"
"Cinder!" It gives Amber a thumbs up.
"That was a good battle Amber." Virgil came up to the victors of this match, sticking his hand out for a handshake. "I can tell that the bond between your Pokémon is something else."
Amber takes his hand and shakes it firmly. "Your Eeveelutions were no slouches either… still…" she looks over to Eevee who was not on his shoulder. "I never saw an Eevee do any of those moves before…"
"What can I say?" He says with a slight smirk on his face. "It's all thanks to our training! Still… looks like I won't be getting the chance to battle with Ash."
With all that being said and done, the two trainers bid farewell to each other.
"Ash… Hm… well, can't wait to take this guy on!" Amber began to be incredibly pumped for the battles ahead of her!
Ash and Misty were now on each side of the battlefield ready to battle.
"Time to see if you really earned that Cascade Badge Ash!" Said Misty.
"Just you wait and see you'll find out that I would've won that badge had Team Rocket not interrupted.!"Said Ash
Trainers release your Pokémon at the same time! 3!...2!...1!
"Pikachu I choose you!"
"Misty calls...Gyarados!"
Both Pokémon are locked in a stare down waiting for the start
Battle Start!
The 2nd round of the Quarter Finals have begun who will be the one to come out on top?
AAaaaaaaaaannd Done! REALLY srry about the wait kept getting side tracked but I've finished it and hopefully the next chapter will be out on either Pokemon Day or in March at the latest meanwhile as an apology here's a special preview trailer for my upcoming 3rd fic which when I do post it will have low priority as I want to mainly focus on my first 2. So without further ado hope you enjoy the preview.
A young woman with Long, waist length snow white hair with bangs that curl away from her face in a horizontal direction with sky blue color eyes wearing a plain white T-shirt and blue short jeans under light blue hoodie as in the middle of a battle as she was facing a a quadrupedal, amphibious Pokemon, with a rounded body that is dark brown on the top and light brown on the bottom, forming a wave pattern in the middle using a Greninja.
"Greninja, we're going to get stronger and stronger!" She said as she and Greninja clenched their fists in sync. "Let'z goooo!"
Greninja then became enveloped by a veil of water as it transformed as the water dispersed and took the form of a giant Shuriken on it's back it's appearance had changed bearing a resemblance to it's trainer, it had gained a top icy blue fin as the fins on it's side were snow white with a light blue line.
"W-what the heck is that!?" Her opponent said.
"Greninja, use Water Shuriken"
"Ha! did you forget rookie? Pokemon has the Water Absorb ability!"
As Greninja throw Shuriken on it's back right as it is about to make contact it suddenly freezes into ice dealing massive damage and knocking the Pokemon out.
"How do you like that!? For the record my name isn't rookie, it's Aurora Yukina. And my dream is to one day surpass the Legendary Trainer Ash Ketchum."
