Author's Notes

Hey sorry it has taken me so long to update this story. A big part of why this story took so long to update was I was procrastinating. I hope you enjoy this latest chapter of The Pokeverse Tournament


Normal POV

It had been about 8 hours since had enter a room with their partner to prepare for the tournament when they all heard a bell ring and J's voice tell them "Alright trainers it is time for dinner". The 16 trainers exited the rooms they were sleeping in and saw two tables able to fit 8 people at each and a large buffet table. Ash saw the buffet table and bolted straight for it with Haru straight behind him. The two of them grabbed plates and piled them high with food then sat down at one of the tables and proceeded to stuff their faces. The remaining 14 trainers stared at Ash and Haru slightly appalled at how they were eating. It took a few seconds for them to recover but once they did they too grabbed a plate and food then sat at the tables. Misty sat next to Ash and said to him "Jeez Ash I would have thought you would have learnt to eat like a civilized person by now". Ash was about to answer but realised he had a mouthful, swallowed his food then answered "I'm not that bad Mist. I'm just really, really starving right now". Misty decided that Ash's eating habits weren't worth starting an argument over so she asked him "Ash what do you think of this tournament?" Ash was about to answer then realised he had a mouthful of food so he swallowed then replied cockily "I think this tournament is going to be a blast. Red and I are gonna be victorious". "Oh no you won't Ketchum. Yellow and I are the ones who are gonna win." Misty responded heatedly. "No my team is." Ash responded back just as heatedly. "No, my team." Misty yelled. "No my team" Ash yelled back. Brock and Gary who were unsurprised by this just kept on eating their meal while everyone else stared at the two of them. Brock told the others "Just ignore them". But the others were unable to as the argument between Ash and Misty was too childish to ignore. After a coupla minutes Brock looked up from his meal and asked irritably "Will you two save your childish squabbles for another time people are trying to eat their meal." The two of them glared at Brock then in unison said "Sorry about that". With that they stopped their childish squabbling and the rest of the meal passed without incident. Once the meal had finished J appeared before them and was once again sitting on Metagross. "I see you all enjoyed the meal," J told them cheerily. They all nodded and as J was speaking the food and tables disappeared and were replaced by two doors. "I suggest you all get some sleep. Tomorrow will be a big day. Also the door on the left are for the boys to sleep and the door on the right is for the girls to sleep," J told them while floating away on Metagross.

The Next Day

The 16 trainers exited the rooms they were sleeping and saw before them a large battlefield, a small spectator's stand and a viewing platform with a throne atop it. J was sitting in the throne with one leg thrown over the arm. "Greetings trainers, I hope you slept well. Now Ash, Red, Blue and Gary take up positions on the field while the rest of you go to the spectator's stand and I will tell you the rules once more. First team to have all their Pokémon faint lose and both sides can switch out as many times as they want," J told them. Ash and Red went to one end of the field while Blue and Gary went to the other. The four trainers placed their hands on their Pokéballs ready to throw them out. "Alright let the Multiverse Tournament begin," J cried out. The four trainers threw out their Pokéballs as soon as J finished speaking. Out of Ash's Pokeball came Heracross; out of Red's came Aerodactyl; out of Blue's came Golduck and out of Gary's came Alakazam. "Alright I'll get things started. Heracross use Megahorn on Alakazam," Ash ordered. Heracross' horn started glowing white as it flew at Alakazam. "Quick Alakazam use Reflect," Gary countered. Alakazam stuck out its hand and an orange barrier quickly appeared on Gary and Blue's side of the field. As soon as Alakazam set up the Reflect barrier Heracross slammed into it but thanks the Reflect the damage from Megahorn was halved. "Aero, use Take Down on Golduck," Red commanded. Aerodactyl flew up high charged at Golduck at a high speed. "Golduck counter with Surf," Blue countered. Golduck jumped up high, a tidal wave forming underneath it. Golduck then rode the tidal wave hitting both Heracross and Aerodactyl, knocking both of them to the ground. Heracross and Aerodactyl recovered quickly and got into battle ready stances. "Heracross," Ash yelled out. "Aero," Red called out. "Hyper Beam," the two trainers commanded in unison. Orange balls formed in the mouths of Aerodactyl and Heracross. Heracross fired its attack at Golduck while Aerodactyl fired its attack at Alakazam. "Quickly Golduck, counter it with Hydro Pump," Blue cried out. Golduck opened its bill and fired a powerful jet of water. Golduck's Hydro Pump collided with Heracross' Hyper Beam and the two attacks battled for superiority. "Alakazam use Psychic to redirect Aerodactyl's Hyper Beam at Heracross," Gary ordered. Alakazam's eyes glowed blue as it used it's Psychic at Heracross. "Heracross look out," Ash cried out. Heracross saw the attack coming but was unable to dodge as the moment it looked away it was nailed by Golduck's Hydro Pump. Straight after being hit by the Hydro Pump Heracross was also hit by the Hyper Beam that had been redirected at it. It went flying and landed in front of Ash with spirals in its eyes signifying that it had fainted.

"I'm proud of you Heracross. Take a nice long nap," Ash said while recalling Heracross. He then turned his head towards Pikachu and said "Alright pal it's your turn". Pikachu leapt off of Ash's shoulder onto the battlefield and entered a battle-ready stance."Aero return," Red called out while pointing a Pokéball at Aerodactyl. A red beam shot out of the ball hitting Aerodactyl returning it to the ball. Red then threw out his next Pokéball yelling "Alright Saur you're up". Out of Red's second Pokéball came his Venasaur. "Pikachu use Quick Attack to increase your speed then hit Alakazam with Electro Ball," Ash commanded. Pikachu complied, his speed picking up turning him into a yellow blur. When Pikachu got close to Alakazam he jumped out and formed a yellow ball on his tail and hurled it into Alakazam. Alakazam then flew backwards hitting the ground spirals in its eyes. "Alakazam return," Gary said recalling his fainted Pokémon. He then threw out his next Pokémon. "Alright Umbreon you're up". Umbreon appeared on the field ready to fight. "Saur use Razor Leaf," Red ordered. Razor sharp leaves went flying at Umbreon and Golduck. "Quick dodge them," Gary and Blue cried out. Umbreon was able to quickly dodge the leaves however Golduck wasn't quick enough and was nailed by them. "Pikachu Quick Attack on Golduck," Ash commanded. Pikachu once again turned into a yellow blur hitting Golduck at a high speed. Golduck staggered back and then went to onto one knee due to exhaustion. "Gold come back and take a rest," Blue called out pointing his Pokéball at Golduck. Blue then threw out his next Pokéball and out of it came his Scizor. "Saur use Frenzy Plant," Red yelled out. Venasaur glowed green then stomped on the ground and spiked roots came flying out of the ground at a blinding speed towards Umbreon and Scizor. "Scizor use Slash to destroy those roots," Blue called out. Scizor swiped its claws releasing white crescent of energy at the roots putting cuts in them but not doing much else. The roots slammed into Scizor and Umbreon. The roots didn't do much damage to Scizor since it was a Bug/Steel type Pokémon but the roots did serious damage to Umbreon. After the roots had attacked they disappeared and Venasaur was temporarily rendered immobile. "Quick Scizor use Steel Wing on while it can't move," Blue cried out. Scizor flew at Venasaur the wings on its back glowing white then slammed into Venasaur. "Pikachu use Thunderbolt on Umbreon," Ash ordered. Pikachu glowed yellow then fired a powerful bolt of electricity at Umbreon. "Quick Umbreon dodge it," Gary cried out but Umbreon was unable to comply as it was still recovering from being hit by Venasaur's Frenzy Plant so Pikachu's Thunderbolt nailed Umbreon and sitting it flying into Gary making it faint. "Good job pal, time for a well earned rest," Gary said recalling Umbreon. Gary grabbed his last Pokéball, kissed it then threw it out. "Alright Blastoise, you're my last hope," Gary cried out as Blastoise appeared on the field. "Blastoise use Ice Punch on Venasaur," Gary ordered. Blastoise charged towards Venasaur its fist started to glow an icy blue and once it reached Venasaur slammed its fist into Venasaur. As soon as Venasaur has hit by Blastoise's Ice Punch it was frozen solid. Red realizing that Venasaur would be unable to continue the battle recalled it. "Thanks Saur, great job. Alright Pika you're on," Red said throwing out his final Pokéball. Pika came out its Pokéball firing an extremely powerful Thunderbolt at Scizor knocking it out and making it faint.

"What just happened?" Blue cried out as he recalled Scizor. "I had Pika charge up its attack since the start of the battle," Red answered with a smile. "But you shouldn't have been able to throw Pikachu's Pokéball if it's been storing up that much electricity," Gary protested. "My gloves are insulators. They protect me," Red answered. Gary nodded in understanding as Blue threw out his next Pokémon. Out of Blue's Pokéball came his Golduck. "Golduck use Hydro Pump on Ash's Pikachu," Blue ordered. Golduck opened its bill and fired a powerful jet of water at Pikachu. "Dodge it then counter with Thunderbolt," Ash yelled out. Pikachu spun out of the path of Golduck's Hydro Pump then while still spinning fired a Thunderbolt hitting Golduck making it faint. "Sorry Golduck," Blue said while recalling Golduck. "Alright Charizard it's your turn," Blue yelled while sending out his final Pokéball. Out of Blue's final Pokéball came his Charizard. "Charizard use Flamethrower on those Pikachus," Blue commanded. Charizard complied opening its mouth and firing a powerful stream of fire. "Counter Shield now," Ash barked out. Pikachu started spinning on the ground while using Thunderbolt. Thunderbolt moved out in all directions stoping the Flamethrower and hitting both Charizard and Blastoise causing damage to them. "Red let's finish this," Ash said with a grin. "Yeah," Red responded. "Pikachu use Electro Ball on Blastoise," Ash commanded. A yellow ball appeared on Pikachu and then he flung it at Blastoise. "Now use Thunderbolt to increase the power of Electro Ball," Ash and Red commanded in unison. The two Pikachus complied the two attacks hitting the Electro Ball and increasing it to a massive size. The Electro Ball hit Blastoise knocking him out instantly. "Pikachu come back," Ash called. His Pikachu left the field and climbed back onto his shoulder. All right Krookodile your up," Ash yelled as he threw his final Pokéball out. Out of the Pokéball came a Krookodile wearing sunglasses. "Krookodile use Stone Edge". Krookodile's body started glowing white with energy then the energy came off its body and formed a ring above Krookodile. "Pika hit that ring with a Thunderbolt'" Red yelled out. Red's Pikachu complied and the ring absorbed the electricity. As soon as that happened Krookodile swing its arms and out of the ring came multiple rocks sparking with electricity. "Dodge it Charizard," Blue called out. Charizard started to fly around but wasn't quick enough as the electrified stones hit it causing massive damage and Charizard quickly fell to the ground and fainted. "The battle is over and the winners are Red and Ash," J called out. "We did it. Alright," Ash and Red cried out in unison as they high-fived. Gary and Blue walked up to them hands outstretched. "Well done Ashy-boy. You've really improved," Gary congratulated Ash. Ash shook Gary's hand while his other hand went to the back of his head in embarrassment. "Good luck in the next round," Blue told Red as he shook his hand. "Alright time for the next match. Calesta, Haru, Brock and Calem make your way down to the battle field," J commanded. The four trainers walked down to the field and went to their respected ends of the field and got ready to throw out their Pokémon. "Rules are the same as before. May the best team win. Now let the battle begin," J called out.
