Hoenn Chapter 21:An Over Heated Battle!
Opening Theme Song: Seishoujo Ryouiki by ALI Project (T.V Version)
It starts off with Roxie dancing in a fancy ballroom with a silhouetted guy and as she reaches in for a kiss he vanishes and someone is behind her asking of a dance. It then shows a night sky with a full moon and buildings and Roxie looks out the window. Roxie enters the ballroom again, but could not move forward. Then a guy in a suit takes her hand and they begin dancing. It then flashes to a Pokémon looking out to the moon as well. Then the two hooded characters reveal themselves as Jessie and James. The Phantom does the same with Marina and Kai behind him. Roxie looks down and she sees that she is about to fall into darkness.
Recap:
Last time on Pokémon: Alex's Contest Chronicles: The Phantom Rises Arc, Roxie and Emile's eggs hatched into Riolu and Happiny they then battled. Roxie also learned more about Alex from Emile.
"So this is Lavaridge Town?" I asked.
"This is an excellent place for relaxing!" Emile said.
"Come and get them Lavaridge's Hot Crossbuns." the guy said as he yelled from his stand.
"Food!" I said running up to the stand. "I'll have two baker's dozen and some of your Lava-Cold Milk."
"Alex why did you buy all of that?" Emile said.
"Are you seriously asking me that question?!"
"You are right never mind." Emile said. "The PokéNav says that Lavaridge City is famous for its Sand Baths and Hot Springs."
"Ooh I'm gonna take a Sand Bath then go to the Hot Springs!" I said.
"I'm right behind you." Emile said.
"No!" Roxie said in a demanding voice stopping Emile and I in our tracks.
"What?!" I said.
"We are only here for my battle with the Lavaridge Gym Leader not for some luxury vacation!" She said stomping her feet.
"Fine!" I said.
"Roxie is right we did only come for her Gym Battle." Emile said.
"When am I not." She said flipping her hair.
"Well it was that one time when you said I wouldn't rain, but it did."
"That only happened once." She replied.
"Actually it happened twice." Emile said.
"That is not the point." She said.
"It kind of is." I said.
At the Lavaridge Gym
"Hello I'm here to challenge the Lavaridge Gym Leader!" Roxie said.
"Welcome, how good to see you've made it here!," "I am Flannery, and I'm the Gym Leader here!" "Uh... Dare not underestimate me, I shall, uh...demonstrate the hot moves we have honed on this land!" the menacing voice said. "You may enter now." The doors creaked open and we walked in.
This gym had a thick fog that only a dim light could be seen at the end of the hall. We opened the door and it was steps with torches on the brick walls. We entered the door and it was a a silhouetted figure with beaming red eyes he had a manly build, but as he stepped down the figure became a young woman nothing more than 20 years old.
"Whaa-?" Roxie said.
"Why are you so surprised?" She said.
"Well we thought that you know, maybe you would be a guy." Roxie said.
"Why would you think that?" said Flannery.
"Because when we got here your voice was so deep." she said.
"Oh that it is just because it was running out of batteries." Flannery said rubbing the back her head out of nervousness.
"Oh, never mind." Roxie said. "Let's battle!"
"Sure!" Flannery said.
"This will be a three on three match." the referee said. "Neither the gym leader nor challenger is allowed to make substitutions."
"Okay, burn ahead, Growlithe!"
"Swellow, Rock On!" Roxie said. "I'll use Swellow's flying and speed to get rid of her Growlithe." she thought. "Aerial Ace!"
Swellow flew towards Growlithe.
"Sunny Day!" Flannery said.
Growlithe opened its mouth and a white ball formed and when it threw it into the air it acted as a sun and got brighter. Swellow could not see and it stopped the Aerial Ace.
"What a excellent way to stop a powerful move in its tracks," Emile said. "How will Roxie deal with this?"
"Roar!"
Growlithe glowed a crimson red and roared causing Swellow to go back in its Pokéball and sending Riolu out.
"What?" Roxie said.
"How can she handle this?" "Unless she can defeat that Growlithe it will continue to Roar her whole team and she will not get her next badge."
"Riolu use Agility." Roxie said.
Riolu ran around gaining speed as the sunlight intensified.
"Growlithe it is now time for Overheat!"
Growlithe glowed a faint red and released a powerful white hot beam of fire with red orange fire spirals around it at Riolu.
"Quick Attack." Roxie said.
Riolu sidestepped out of the way and used Quick attack on Growlithe, but it did not do as much damage.
"Switch into Focus Punch!"
Riolu hit Growlithe in its gut and flung it into the air.
"Take Down!"
Growlithe aimed to hit Riolu with its head.
"Detect!"
Riolu closed its eyes and then moved out of the way and Growlithe hit its head on the battlefield.
"Roar Growlithe" he began to roar.
"Quick Attack!"
Riolu took off to hit Growlithe with the attack and hit Growlithe and it was then sent back into its Pokéball and Swellow was sent back out.
"Swellow use Brave Bird and finish this." Roxie said.
Swellow hit Growlithe and knocked it out and took recoil damage.
"Growlithe is down." The referee stated.
"Yes finally I think I'm getting my momentum." Roxie thought.
"Burn Ahead, Magcargo!, Fire Blast!"
"Quick Attack"
Swellow dodged it and hit Magcargo, but got burned by Magcargo's ability Flame Body then Swellow's ability Guts was activated.
"Rock Tomb!"
Rocks protruded from the ground quickly and tried catch Swellow.
"Quick, Swellow use Double Team."
Swellow disappeared and made several copies of itself.
"Overheat! Magcargo knock them all down." Flannery said.
"Spin while using Brave Bird!" Roxie said.
Swellow spun in the air catching altitude it then back flipped and became cloaked in fire then in a blazing blue aura.
"Aerial Ace now!" Roxie said.
It then gained more speed.
"Magcargo switch into Stone Edge!"
Two rings appeared around Magcargo and formed into several rocks. Swellow and Magcargo hit each other and they both were knocked out. It is a draw both Swellow and Magcargo are unable to battle." the referee said.
"Return and Go, my Powerhouse!" Flannery said.
Houndoom came out of its Pokéball
"Rock On! Marshtomp!" Roxie said.
The sunlight then faded.
"Marshtomp use Mud Shot." Roxie said.
"Houndoom use Roar" Flannery said.
"Roar again!" Roxie said.
Marshtomp was sent back and Riolu came back out.
"Iron Tail."
Houndoom hit Riolu into the ground and Riolu could barley get up.
"SolarBeam!" Houndoom began to take in energy from the sun from outside, but since there was no sun Houndoom took longer.
"Riolu back to back Focus Punches!"
Riolu used Focus Punch several times on Houndoom. Houndoom fired the SolarBeam at Riolu.
"Detect."
Riolu closed its eyes and moved out of the way, but it failed and Riolu was hit and was thrown into a wall where Houndoom would not let up and eventually Riolu was knocked out.
"Riolu is unable to battle."
"Return Riolu it is up to you, Rock on Marshtomp!"
Marshtomp came out of its Pokéball.
"Marshtomp use Muddy Water!"
A wave of dirty water hit Houndoom.
"Again."
Another wave of Muddy Water hit Houndoom again.
"SolarBeam." Houndoom began to take in sunlight.
"Marshtomp now is your chance Hydro Pump!"
Marshtomp fired the high pressured water at Houndoom.
"Now Muddy Water!"
A wave of Muddy Water appeared again and then Houndoom fired the SolarBeam and it cut through the Muddy Water.
"Marshtomp get out of the way!" Roxie yelled.
Marshtomp jumped and appeared above Houndoom.
"Hydro Pump!" Roxie yelled.
Houndoom was hit and was knocked out.
"Houndoom is unable to battle Roxie is the victor." the referee said.
"Oh... I guess I tried too hard, you deserve this, the Heat Badge!" Flannery said.
"I got my fourth Badge!" Roxie said.
"Your fourth badge is a Heat Badge!" Flannery said.
"Yep." Roxie replied grinning with pride.
"That mean that you are half way to reaching the Ever Grande Conference!" Flannery said.
"Thank you very much." Roxie said taking the Heat Badge. "Now to the Hot Springs!"
