Legend of Gaowan
Chapter 15: A Shocking Good Time!
After catching a Kiddius at the Toia Plains, Cam prepared himself for a second battle in the Topaz Gym against Sparky. The question was: Would a new Pokemon be enough to defeat the gym leader?
He hoped so.
He entered the gym, ready to battle. He called out that he wanted to challenge Sparky.
And Sparky jumped to the challenge. They both took out their first Pokemon. The battle had begun.
Sparky started with his Electrike, Cam with Petalwoof. The two sent out commands almost simultaneously.
"Electrike, Spark!" "Petalwoof, use Razor Leaf!"
Electrike charged forward, dodging the Razor Leaves, and rammed into Petalwoof, before running away. Cam had to think of a new strategy. His old one just wouldn't cut it.
And then, it came to him.
"Petalwoof! Use Sweet Scent, and follow up with Bite!"
The Sweet Scent made Electrike to relax for a split second. Big mistake.
After biting Electrike, tossing it into the air, Petalwoof blasted it with Razor Leaf, taking it out.
"Good job, Cam. I see you have improved. Go, Shinx!"
"Return, Petalwoof. Go, Kiddius!"
The Small Goat looked at the Shinx and bleated.
Shinx started to run at Kiddius. Kiddius ducked behind Cam, causing Shinx to stop.
"What's wrong, Kiddius? Don't you want to fight?"
Kiddius shook it's head.
"Fine then. Kiddius, return!"
Now Cam had to make a choice. Petalwoof or a new Pokemon. Easy choice.
"Go, Petalwoof! Bite, and follow up with Razor Leaf!"
Needless to say, the technique worked twice in a row, defeating Shinx.
"Good job so far, Cam, now let's see you fight Skyhawk!
The Pokemon in question was sent out. Now, the real battle began!
Skyhawk lead with Wing Attack, making Petalwoof dodge.
"Come on, Cam, is that all you have?"
"Come on, Petalwoof, we have to fight back."
"Skyhawk, use Wing Attack, Peck, Sky Talon and Giga Impact as one attack again!"
"Petalwoof, dodge and use Razor Leaf!"
Petalwoof just edged away from Skyhawk, and blitzed it with a heavy dose of Razor Leaf.
"No! Skyhawk!"
"Keep using Razor Leaf, Petalwoof!"
Unable to escape, Skyhawk dropped to the ground after being pummeled by so many Razor Leaf attacks. But there was still a twist that no-one expected.
Skyhawk started to glow.
And this time, it wasn't because of an attack.
Cam watched in horror as Skyhawk evolved. It's wingspan increased, it's beak became stronger, and it's tail became zig-zagged.
Skyhawk had evolved into Stormhawk.
"Alright Stormhawk! Use your combo attack on Petalwoof!"
Petalwoof didn't have a chance. Stormhawk slammed into it, defeating it.
"No! Petalwoof!"
"Down to your last Pokemon, unless you use Kiddius."
"Not Kiddius, unless it's for a last resort. Go, Flarkit!"
The Kitten Pokemon jumped out, ready to battle.
The two Pokemon faced each other down. Stormhawk on one side, Flarkit on another.
Neither dared move. They both watched each other, wait for the first move to be made.
Until…
"Flarkit! Ember!"
"Stormhawk! Quick Attack!"
Stormhawk glided into battle, ready to attack Flarkit, only to be hit by Ember. Flarkit dodged by inches, and used Inflame, followed by another Ember.
This one also made its mark.
"Storm! Stormhawk!!"
"Stormhawk! Hang on!"
"Flarkit! Ember one more time!"
This time, Stormhawk fell to the ground. There was no getting up.
The battle for the Energy Badge was over.
"Guess you won." Said a disgruntled Sparky.
"Yeah. Guess I did."
"Okay. I'm not used to losing. Here. You won the Energy Badge, and TM Thunderbolt."
"Thanks."
"No problem. But I would suggest that you train up a lot. You're qualified for the next level of Pokemon Gym now, so I suggest you prepare before you fight the Pearl and Ruby gyms."
"Great! And that means..."
Cam whipped out his P.T.I. (Pokemon Trainer Identification) and loaded up his trainer status. Instead of being titled a "Rookie Trainer," the words: Pokemon Trainer showed up on the screen.
"Yes! And now to Thunder's Peak!"
"Well, see ya around, pal!"
And the two parted ways.
This is the Topaz Storm. The Spirit of Thunder's Peak.
It lies in wait for the one who will awaken it. Trapped in a state of… not life, nor death. It simply waits.
Not much longer will it wait. Not much longer will it have to wait.
