After going through more training, Davin headed back to the cable car station on Route 112 and took one of the cars to Mt. Chimney. To his surprise, the mountain's volcano made the area rain in ash.

He noticed a path to his right from the station and entered it, where a bunch of steep, sharp ledges and rugged rocks made up the area. "The Jagged Pass..." Davin said to himself. "The name speaks for itself."

He had to hop over a few big rocks and small ledges before he came across the exit. "Well, that was easy enough." He only took one step before someone from behind said, "Hey, you!"

He turned around to see a boy with a Poke ball in his hand. "You're a trainer, right? Let's have a battle! The name's Landon."

Davin blinked twice. "Short and to the point, aren't you? Sure. Let's do it! My name's Davin."

"To make it interesting, let's have a double battle!" Landon said.

"Cool with me. I haven't been in a double battle for awhile." Davin said, getting his Poke balls ready.

Landon threw out his Pokemon. "Hariyama! Ninjask! Let's go!" The two Pokemon made their appearances on the only grass part of the area.
"So its Hariyama and Ninjask..." Davin took out his Pokedex to identify the latter.

"Ninjask, the Ninja Pokemon. Because it darts about vigorously at high speed, it is very difficult to see. Hearing its distinctive cries for too long induces a headache."

Davin took out two Poke balls and threw them. "Halo and Ira, I'll leave it to you!" The butterfly and the newly acquired fish Pokemon appeared in a flash of light.

"Ninjask, use Fury Swipes on Beautifly! Hariyama, Arm Thrust on Carvanha!" Ninjask's arms glowed white and it flew at its target while Hariyama came at its foe with its hands out.

"Halo, use Gust on Hariyama! Ira, use Take Down on Ninjask!" The strong wind stopped Hariyama in its tracks and Ira jumped and tackled Ninjask with force.

"Now, Ira, use Screech!" A loud, high pitched scream came out of the Carvanha's mouth, making the enemies cover their ears. "Halo, Aerial Ace on Hariyama!" She hit her mark on the Arm Thrust Pokemon as it fell on its back.

"Ninjask, Swords Dance! Hariyama, Bulk Up!" The Bug-type's arms glowed purple and it started to cross them in a dance; Hariyama simultaneously increased its attack and defense by tightening its muscles while a crimson aura engulfed it.

"Use Gust!" Halo did her special Flying-type move, but Ninjask vanished in the blink of an eye before it hit. "Wha-?" Davin was cut off when Ninjask appeared behind Halo.

"Fury Cutter!" Its arms glowed red and it slashed Halo from behind. With its quick speed, it kept striking her continuously, the red glow growing longer with each hit.

"Ira, stop it with Take Down!"

"Hariyama, Focus Blast!" A blue sphere formed between its hands and was thrown, making contact with Ira and causing super effective damage.

With Ninjask dealing its fifth Fury Cutter in a row, Halo collapsed to the ground, knocked out.

Davin returned it, feeling a bit angry. "This is bad. Not only is it two against one now, but with the combination of Hariyama's power and Ninjask's speed, it's impossible to win!"

"All right! Both of you attack at once! Hariyama, Close Combat! Ninjask, X-Scissor!" Ninjask's arms glowed light blue, it crossed them in an X, and came forward while Hariyama ran at the foe, ready to deal consecutive hits to it.

Davin gasped. "Wait a sec. That's it! Ira, use Endure!" It shut its eyes tightly as the blows landed. Despite the super effective damage, it still hadn't fainted. "Perfect! Now, use Aqua Jet on Ninjask!" It's body became surrounded by water and it delivered a straight shot to Ninjask.

"Take Down!"

"Focus Blast, Hariyama!" Ira did a flip to dodge it and it hit Ninjask again, this time resulting in a knockout.

"Yes! One down!" Davin said while Landon returned Ninjask.

"It's not over yet! Hariyama, Arm Thrust!"

"Endure, then Aqua Jet!" Hariyama thrust its palms on to Ira, but it had no effect; Ira countered with another water-engulfed slam to Hariyama's body.

"Now, end this! Take Down to your fullest power!" Another successful hit struck Hariyama and the large Fighting-type fell unconscious.

"Victory!" The boy shouted as he pumped his fist into the air. He went over and picked up his Carvanha. "You were great, Ira! See what you can do when you work with your friends?"

"Carva, Carva!" It smiled.

Landon returned Hariyama and came up to Davin. "Good battle. Both your Carvanha and Beautifly were great."

"Same with your Hariyama and Ninjask. You had me worried for a second."

With that, the two trainers said good bye, Davin sent Ira back to its ball, and turned towards the exit. "Now... we go to Lavaridge!"
