Alert, Alert we have been spotted! squealed an alarm in his ear. Angus immediately gathered his pokeballs, slipped on his sunglasses and raced to top of the ledge they were climbing to get to lavaridge. By the looks of things the grunts had been trying to sneak their way into the town and recover some supplies and had been spotted by townspeople. Help one of the women yelled thieves as a grunt grabbed her hand back and rifled through it. Things looked reasonably okay the grunts were doing well, pillaging the town of supplies and defeating any opposing pokemon. Only one problem: They were attracting far too much attention. Suddenly out of nowhere came a girlish and childish voice, Don't worry citizens of lavaridge i'll help you out and OHKO all of the bad guys. Leader Flannery they all yelled in triumph we're saved! Angus grinned the grunts vs a gym leader this should be interesting. Go Torkoal! yelled flannery a smokey grey and fiery red turtle pokemon burst from its ball and yelled a mighty roar. Quickly torkoal show them your power, OVERHEAT! Torkoal bellowed a mighty roar and spewed flame from its top that expanded and rained down upon all of the grunts and their pokemon. Angus was stunned this gym leader was tough, tougher than normal, i mean of course he could take her but still the overheat was very powerful. He was about to step in after seeing all of the fainted grunts and their pokemon but a voice yelled FEAR NOT TEAM MAGMA HELP IS ON ITS WAAAAAAYYYY! Oh brother angus thought here we go again. A plump pot bellied man with black girly styled hair with an ugly red jumper on I AM TABITHA YOUR MASTER AND GOD! said tabitha waddling over to the grunts. Angus facepalmed and blushed heavily, Tabitha one of the elite admins was a plump dwarfy fool. Sure he was alright at battling but he was horrible with style, looks and of course entrances. his style was well couldn't be rated because he had none. And his walk! ...ugh the least said about it the better. Angus looked behind himself and spotted Ethan. He looked happy for some reason?! And what is so amusing angus whispered shuffling next to ethan. It will be tabitha's initiation into the business said ethan grinning it is his time to prove that he is strong enough for us. Tabitha overheard them speaking. Yes he yelled with pride i tabitha will become the greatest admin of all team magma (angus clears his throat angrily). Now go CAMERUPT. The big dopey camel like pokemon emerged from its pokeball yawning and slumping into slumber on the ground. CAMERUPT THIS IS NOT THE TIME! yelled Tabitha and tried to force and pull camerupt from the ground. Which of course caused his to trip and fall backwards and due to his dwarfy body shape - he couldn't get up. Help yelled Tabitha in panic. Flannery laughed and said torkoal finish him off, OVERHEAT ONCE MORE! The flame spewed out of Torkoals back once more. Camerupt woke up, yelped in fear and scrambled away like eggs in a pan (hue hue hue). CAMERUPT COME BAAAAAAACK yelled tabitha in a girly voice. Suddenly Tabitha noticed the soaring flames about to crash onto him and screeched like a newborn baby. The flames wooshed over him for a full minute after a while tabitha ran out of the smoke screaming and spewing smoke and yelling I'LL BE BAAAAAAACK. Then he tripped and rolled down the hill screaming, coughing and crying. Any more said Flannery gallantly and swishing her hair like a movie star. Well someone gotta do it angus thought before emerging from the rock dramatically with a shadow over his face saying Me. Oh...Flannery was lost for words at first her face clouded with emotion. Then after realising everyone was watching her she broke into a grin saying oh really well come on then, i've got plenty more overheats ready for ya! Well said angus about that, not really. I know my moves well enough to know that overheat has a catch. Each time you use it you Sp. Atk drops by 50% and you've used it twice. I was studying your Torkoal the whole time and it wasn't eating anything so i suppose it wasn't equipped with white herb. which means right now your torkoals Sp. Atk is at about 0.25% so you could say rather than having plenty more overheats in the barrel, your torkoal is actually ripe for the picking and any more overheats would get its power down to that of an ember. There was a stunned silence throughout the battlefield how do you know so much choked out a lady on the sideline. angus grinned and rubbed the back of his head embarrassed, well not really ethan is the real expert he taught me everything i know from when i was a kid. Really he must be a real expert then said a man from the sideline. what are you people doing yelled a pompous man possibly the mayor these people are the enemy! We should be insulting him not complimenting him on his knowledge! The mayor was given a displeased eye by everyone in the crowd including Flannery. The mayor blushed bright red and started to stutter and choke. But … he … stupid … magma scum he muttered under his breath. Ethan cleared his throat angrily excuse me your highness interrupted ethan sarcastically but i can hear you! So what asked the mayor angrily now Flannery do what you came to do and kick this shorty's butt! Angus's face turned red but he grinned broadly as if he wanted this to happen all along. Angus dramatically slipped on his red sunglasses and growled listen your pompousness you just messed with the wrong "shorty". Angus then wasted no time in sending out his Bisharp which glared at the torkoal. Aaaaaah yelled the mayor stuff it torkoal overheat it. Hey said flannery don't order my torkoal around! I'm the mayor of this town an what i say goes NOW TORKOAL DO WHAT I SAID AND USE OVERHEAT! yelled the mayor. Humph said angus obviously displeased Bisharp sucker punch. Bisharps spiked hand glowed with shadowy power and before torkoal had any time to react it flew towards it with lightning speed and jabbed it in the face. Torkoal was still for a moment then crumpled, it was a OHKO. What! yelled flannery how could it do so much damage! Well said angus first of all STAB which basically already makes it OP. Also high attack stat, plus the always going first. Solid base damage, correct nature and IV's, lots of EV training, your torkoals weak defenses… Oh and it had choice band so it basically OHKO's anything that comes in its way. Wow said flannery you must have trained it real hard, what sort of training schedule do you use. Well said Angus sheepishly again its Ethan who should take the credit hes taught me all i need to know about stats and EV's and IV's but yeah i organise a training session about 3 times a day if im not to busy. Cool said flannery admiringly i like your style. WHAT yelled the mayor in outrage BUT THATS CHEATING, HE CHEATED I'M SURE HE DID, HE MUST HAVE - THAT STUPID SHORTY! Angus glowered and turned red with rage he looked back at Ethan who was also angry and who gave him a nod when he caught his eye. Bisharp use iron head on this fool growled angus bitterly. Bisharp like Ethan gave angus a curt nod before zooming up to the mayor. Bisharps tall figure towered over the mayors dwarfy size. Bisharp regarded the mayor coldly and bitterly putting a tense/ominous feeling to the air. A few moments passed… Um said the mayor could you get off my CRRRRRACK! People winced at the sound of muscle tearing and bones snapping as a guttural cry filled the air. Bisharp quick as a flash had turned his head from metal to granite and slammed full force into the mayors face. The mayor was a sorry sight, his face pushed inwards his jaw broken, his eyes bulging his nose now an inwardly bent stump that continuously leaked blood. His teeth knocked either out of his mouth or into his lip which bled steadily along with his nose and mouth. His mouth uttering a distorted shriek of terror as he tried to scramble away from bisharp. Bisharp glared at the mayor and stood on the mayors chest forcefully. The mayor gurgled and screamed with pain as blood oozed from his mouth and nose. His legs and arms flailing in pain and alarm. This is what you get for insulting my pride and and calling me short fool growled angus as he bent down to the mayors level, thats enough Bisharp said angus bitterly and recalled it to its ball. he regarded the stunned crowd and said we're done here. Then he walked up to flannery, shook her hand and said a pleasure to meet you gym leader of lavaridge. The admins and remaining grunts picked up their injured comrades and walked off into the sunset, leaving a stunned silence in their wake.
