Part 26

Whiplash

"Sceptile, use Leaf Blade!" Sceptile rushed forward, the four blades on either arm lengthened. They slashed at Aipom.

"Aipom, duck!" Aipom slid under the attack, as it clashed to the ground and threw sand unto the salty sea air. Sceptile curled around. "Quick, Swift!" Aipom, as Sceptile turned, let go of stars that burst in Sceptile's face.

"Great! Venomoth, use Stun Spore!" Venomoth zoomed over Sceptile and released the powdery dust. Sceptile remained in the spot it was, as it was paralyzed.

"Beautifly, use Solarbeam!" Beautifly released a beam of light at Venomoth.

"Aipom, use Swift!" Aipom threw its tail forward and sparks of stars flittered out, colliding with the beam. "Yeah!"

"Venomoth, use Confusion!" Venomoth levitated Sceptile from the ground and threw it at Beautifly. "Okay, Silver Wind!"

"Aipom, Swift!" The two pokemon combined their attacks, firing them at the opponents.

Both were collided with and fainted.

"Return!" Brandon and May called in unison.

"Last pokemon! Go, Pinsir!" Brandon called. The thick brown pokemon was released onto the field, snapping its pincers.

"Come on out, Combusken!" May shouted, releasing her fire chicken.

"Pinsir, use Vicegrip!" Pinsir lunged forward.

"Aipom, Focus Punch!"

"Pinsir, recoil and use Double Edge!" Pinsir lobbed forward and collided with Aipom's fist.

Aipom reeled back and fell.

"Aipom!" Aipom grinned and stood back up. "Great! Use Faint Attack!"

"Venomoth, use Silver Wind!" Venomoth created the silvery wind, which allowed Aipom to disappear. It reappeared by Pinsir, throwing its tail into it.

"Pinsir...Come on, use Bug Bite!" Its pincers glowed white with sparks flying off. It sent the bug type move off its pincers, hitting Aipom and fainting it.

"Aipom! Return. Let's give them a finale! Come on out, Slowpoke!" Ethan called on his slow, pink pokemon. "Use Water Gun!" Slowpoke spit a quick spray of water.

"Combusken, use Sky Uppercut!" Combusken rushed forward, its claws screaming. It tore through the water and slammed into Slowpoke, also throwing Venomoth away.

"Venomoth, come on! Use Confusion!" Venomoth hovered and took control of Combusken, throwing it into the air.

"Yeah, Slowpoke! Use Water Gun!" Slowpoke released a stream of water, slamming into Combusken in the air. Combusken started to fall.

"Pinsir, use Double Edge!" Pinsir lurched forward, throwing its weight.

Venomoth hovered around Pinsir as it came, showing off its agility. "Venomoth, let's finish Combusken! Use Silver Wind!"

"Let's turn it around May! Pinsir, recoil back and use Bug Bite!"

"Combusken, Overheat!" Combusken let loose a flame from its mouth, slowing its fall and landing on its feet. Venomoth lurched to a stop, only to be greeted by the flames. They collided with Venomoth. The Bug Bite was deflected by the flames and shot back at Slowpoke. They collided and sent the two pokemon in a heap.

"And that's it!" Brandon bellowed.

Ethan and Lyra recalled their pokemon, grinning at their defeat.

"Wow, that was an awesome battle!" Lyra greeted.

May and Brandon recalled their pokemon and nodded.

"Good practice for my next Gym Battle!" Ethan shrieked.

"Mine too," Brandon replied.

Hidden behind a pier a few yards away...

"I'm guessing those two are the punks that have defeated Team Magma and Aqua a couple of times in Hoenn..." A man's voice chirped. "Interesting. I guess we could poach their pokemon...But that would be kind of rude, to just jump out there and snatch them..."

"Oh, come on boss! We could handle it!" A raspy voice interjected.

"Don't snag his judgment..." A smooth, repealing voice snapped.

"Hm, we could wait? Our plans in Mahogany are taking off soon...I suppose I should be heading back to the base...You two, catch them off guard on that isle that were talking about, between here and Cianwood...see ya!" The voice faded and the two men were left to their thoughts.

"He always leaves us with the grunt work..." The raspy voice chided.

"Could it be because we're grunts, maybe?" The calm voice barked.

A couple of hours later...

"That man said she was in the lighthouse..." Ethan chimed.

"Yeah...this lighthouse!" Lyra said, pointing up to the tall lighthouse the quads stood in front.

"I'll see! Come on out, Swellow!" Brandon sent out his flying pokemon. It soared way up to the top of the building, pointing with its wing when it arrived. "Well, there's the room we're headed for. So, let's scale this thing!"

"I sure hope you mean from the inside, Brandon," May hummed.
