Can you feel it? That's right, it's time for Owen's sixth gym battle! Last chapter (which was quite confusing, IMO), two kisses occurred and Ariel was revealed to have apparently talked to Owen during the party, though it wasn't confirmed. Snivy's past was also revealed by Angel in front of all the other Pokemon, but Heatmor cheered her up and they headed back inside while holding hands. After that, Fate concluded she kissed CJ, while Brooklyn didn't know who she kissed. Now that all of the drama is behind them (or is it?) Owen can finally challenge the Mistralton City gym leader! Now, let's get going!
P.S: I forgot to add Tranquill's new move the past two chapters :/

"Today is the day!" Owen roared while walking into the Mistralton City gym with Snivy by his side. The grass type threw her hands in the air excitedly while Fate, CJ, and Rebecca continued to talk about the masquerade party. The building was an aircraft hangar, which also had the world's biggest cargo plane inside. It had a long flat top, which seemed to resemble the shape of a battlefield. "Hello? I'm here for a gym battle!" Owen shouted while cupping his hands around his mouth.
"It's about time!" a familiar voice replied. Suddenly, Skyla appeared from behind the cargo plane and waved at the group of four. "I've been waiting for you to challenge the gym ever since I helped you train," Skyla told Owen as he and his friends made their way over to her. The sixteen year old smiled at the group, but an old man interrupted the friendly gathering.
"Ah, so you're the boy Skyla trained. She's been talking about you quite a bit," the elderly man said with a smile, which caused Skyla to blush.
"Grandpa, you're making that sound weird!" she yelled while stomping on the ground. The man laughed at his granddaughter's response as he continued to walk towards Owen before shaking his hand. "I'm Skyla's grandfather. Nice to meet you," he greeted with a smile. Owen noticed the man was much shorter than Skyla, and he had a square face. He also had long grey hair that was slicked back, and he wore a green shirt.
"I'm Owen Plateau. It's nice to meet you too. And these are my friends, CJ, Fate, and Rebecca," Owen told the man while pointing at his traveling companions. Snivy smacked Owen with a Vine Whip and outed, waiting for her trainer to introduce her. "And this is my starter, Snivy." The grass snake smiled and bowed at the older man, which made him laugh heartily.
"I'll fire up the plane. You five, hop on the back," Skyla's grandfather told the teens. Fate, CJ, and Rebecca all laughed at the man, thinking that he was joking. The soon realized, however, that he was serious when they saw Owen and Skyla hop onto the back of the enormous plane. The three exchanged concerned glances before climbing onto the battlefield portion of the plane and looking around.
"Where are the seats?" Fate asked nervously while searching for somewhere to sit or something to strap herself to. Skyla laughed at the question, but didn't respond. Suddenly, Skyla's grandfather appeared on the battleship area, and the plane began to rise into the air, causing the group of traveling trainers to scream nervously. The plane ascended at least five hundred feet in the air before stopping and staying in place. Then, three walls appeared along the sides, just in case any Pokemon were launched by an attack.
"I'll be the referee for the match," Skyla's grandfather announced while walking over to the referee podium. Owen's three traveling companions were then whisked towards the seating area and they held onto their seats tightly. Owen and Snivy then walked over to their trainer box while Skyla stepped into her own. Then, several rings were hung in the air by balloons, which somehow didn't continue to float out of the atmosphere.
"It looks those rings are for Pokemon that aren't flying types," CJ examined while looking at the eight rings floating in the air. "I wonder how Owen will utilize those."
"This will be a three versus three gym battle between Owen and Skyla, where only the challenger may substitute Pokemon! Furthermore, once all Pokemon on one side are unable to battle, the battle will be over! Skyla, choose your first Pokemon!" the gym leader's grandfather ordered.
"Here we go. Swoobat, take to the skies!" the young gym leader shouted while throwing her first Pokeball into the air. A large bat with a pig face and pink nose in the shape of a heart appeared above Skyla. Owen and Snivy frowned at the fairly familiar Pokemon, and the fourteen year old grabbed his first Pokeball before tossing it in the air.
"Zebstrika, I choose you!" Owen yelled as his electric type appeared in front of him. Snivy cheered for the tall Pokemon, but stopped when the ref spoke up.
"This battle will be between Swoobat and Zebstrika! Begin!"
"Swoobat, use Psywave!" Skyla yelled first as she started the battle off with an aggressive style. Swoobat flew over to Zebstrika and fired a wave of pink energy at the electric zebra, which struck the four legged Pokemon. Zebstrika was pushed back by the strong pink wave of psychic energy, prompting Owen to speak to his Pokemon.
"Shake it off, Zebstrika! Use Shock Wave!" Owen countered. Zebstrika shook his head, taking Owen's orders literally. His body was then covered in bright electricity that was quickly shot towards the pig-bat. Despite the incredible speed of the super effective attack, Skyla and her Pokemon were easily able to counter the Shock Wave.
"Blow it back with Gust!" the redhead shouted. The psychic and flying type began flapping its wings quickly, causing a powerful burst of wind to be created. Just before The Shock Wave attack could reach Swoobat, the powerful winds sent the bolt of electricity back towards Zebstrika. The electric zebra was struck by his own attack, causing him to take a few steps back.
"Let's use Flame Charge!" Owen yelled, realizing that long range attacks weren't going to work. Zebstrika nodded and was covered in fire in a matter of seconds. He then charged towards the flying Pokemon and leaped into the air at a blinding speed.
"Fly out of the way and use Psywave again!" As Zebstrika jumped into the air Swoobat flew away, but her wings was burnt by the flames surrounding Zebstrika's body. Despite the awful pain running through her wing, Swoobat fired a pink wave of energy at the vulnerable Pokemon. Zebstrika was hit by the psychic type attack and he was sent flying into the ground. Owen flinched when he heard the loud crack that echoed through the air when Zebstrika hit the ground, but he smiled when he saw the zebra get back on his hooves.
"Hang in there, Zebstrika! Zap 'em with Shock Wave!" Owen yelled, hoping that Zebstrika could knock Swoobat out in one shot. A wave of electricity danced around Zebstrika's body before shooting up at his winged opponent. The psychic and flying type was shocked by the wicked bolt of electricity, which appeared to deal major damage, but she continued flying.
"Wrap this up with Air Cutter!" Skyla commanded fiercely. Owen and Snivy watched as Zebstrika was blasted by a powerful crescent of wind, which brought the powerful Pokemon to the ground.
"Zebstrika!" Owen shouted while running to his downed Pokemon's side.
"Zebstrika is unable to battle! Owen, choose your next Pokemon!" Skyla's grandpa told the challenger.
"Thanks, Zebstrika. You gave it everything you had," Owen said to the fainted electric type. He then took a deep breath, already facing a difficult task. The Pokemon he expected to play a pivotal role in his gym battle had been knocked out already. "Tranquill, come on out!" Owen shouted while throwing his second Pokeball into the air. Tranquill zipped out of the device before landing in front of her trainer.
"This battle will be between Tranquill and Swoobat! Begin!"
"Tranquill, start off with Aerial Ace!" Owen commanded. Tranquill zipped through the air while white streaks of light flew off her beak and trailed behind her body. Skyla and her Swoobat didn't expect Tranquill to fly so quickly, which led to Swoobat being crushed by the flying type attack. Swoobat began falling towards the ground, but recovered just in time to avoid crashing into the ground.
"Nice recovery, Swoobat! Use Psywave!" Skyla ordered.
"Tranquill, dodge with the technique Skyla and Unfezant taught us!" Owen shouted to his Pokemon. Tranquill's left eye focused on the incoming attack while her other eye looked around at the air while she flew around. Skyla cursed under her breath after watching Tranquill dodge with such ease, and she quickly swooped back around to attack the gym leader's Pokemon once again.
"Air Cutter!" Skyla yelled while pointing at Tranquill. Swoobat's wings began to glow white while a ball of swirling air appeared in front of her chest. Then, Swoobat threw the ball of wind at Tranquill, and Skyla smirked as she thought Owen and Tranquill wouldn't be able to dodge the attack. Her smirk disappeared, however, when she saw Owen and Tranquill look at each other before nodding.
"Spin to dodge and use Quick Attack to accelerate!" Owen boomed. Tranquill began spinning to her right while the white trail of light behind her turned into a double helix. After dodging the attack, Tranquill continued spinning and crashed into Swoobat, who was slammed into the ground as a result of the powered up normal type attack.
"Swoobat, don't give up! Use Psywave!" Skyla yelled to her first battler. Swoobat looked up and fired a powerful pink beam of psychic energy at Tranquill, who had began to crash towards the ground at a breakneck pace.
"Crash through it with a spinning Aerial Ace!" Owen screamed powerfully. Tranquill did just as she was told, and she began to spin. The flying type attack was powered up because of Tranquill's spinning, which allowed her to plow through the psychic type attack and slam into Swoobat.
"Swoobat, no!" Skyla cried as a cloud of dust shot up from the battlefield.
"Quill!" Tranquill squawked proudly while flying back to Owen's half of the battlefield. Swoobat's eyes were shut tight, signaling that she was no longer able to battle.
"Swoobat is unable to battle! Skyla, choose your next Pokemon!"
"Way to go, Swoobat. Unfezant, control the air!" Skyla yelled while tossing her second Pokeball upwards. Owen, Snivy, and Tranquill all watched as Skyla's Unfezant soared through the air and let out a squawk before landing on the ground. "We've been looking forward to this matchup, haven't we, Unfezant?" Skyla asked her Pokemon. Unfezant nodded and puffed out her chest, and Tranquill did the same.
"This battle will be between Tranquill and Unfezant! Begin!"
"Tranquill, use Gust!" Owen told his Pokemon. Tranquill shot back into the air along with Unfezant, and she began to flap her wings powerfully. A powerful burst of wind was created and it began to change Unfezant's flying ability.
"Unfezant, descend and hit with Drill Peck!" Unfezant expertly escaped the powerful wind and shot straight down before zipping back up while her beak began to glow white. Then, she began to spin like a drill before slamming into Tranquill. The smaller of the two Pokemon was crushed by the attack, but managed to get away from fully evolved opponent.
"Tranquill, fight back with Aerial Ace!" Snivy cheered for her teammate as Tranquill recovered from the painful attack, and she crashed down towards Unfezant. Thankfully for Owen, Tranquill landed her attack and rammed Unfezant into the ground. The older Pokemon quickly shook off the effects of the Aerial Ace and countered quickly after hearing her trainer's command.
"Close Combat!" Skyla screamed while punching the air in front of her. A split second later, Tranquill was suddenly kicked and slapped by Unfezant before being kicked in the gut. The second stage Pokemon was launched across the battlefield and rolled towards Owen and Snivy.
"Unfezant can't normally learn Close Combat. Skyla's a top-notch trainer," CJ told the two girls sitting next to him as they watched Tranquill struggled to get back on her feet.
"Tranquill, let's use a spinning Aerial Ace!" Owen told his flying type. Tranquill nodded before launching herself forwards while spinning at the same time. Her body was wrapped in spinning white streaks of lights, which led to Skyla's next attack.
"Unfezant, finish this up with Drill Peck!" Unfezant's beak extended and began to glow white before she started to spin like a drill. The two Pokemon collided in the middle of the battlefield and an explosion occurred. BOOM! Both Pokemon were sent bouncing across the battlefield, but Unfezant landed on her feet while Tranquill was down for the count.
"Tranquill is unable to battle! Owen, choose your last Pokemon!" Skyla's grandfather shouted while looking at the teen from Kanto. Owen bit his lip while returning Tranquill back to her Pokeball, which Snivy noticed.
"Awesome job, Tranquill. You gave Unfezant a tough fight," Owen said with a smile. He then put Tranquill's Pokeball onto his belt, and he grabbed his third and last Pokeball. After taking a deep breath Owen looked up at Skyla and her Unfezant before grinning. "Let's make a comeback! Heatmor, let's rock!" Owen roared while throwing the Pokeball forward. Heatmor materialized from the light that shot out of the Pokeball, and he shot a wave of fire out of his tail.
"Sawk, come on out!" Fate shouted while releasing the fighting type from his Pokeball. Sawk appeared next to his trainer with his usual stern look before seeing Heatmor on the battlefield. He then ran over to Owen's side and began cheering for his best friend, causing the trainers on the bench to laugh.
"Why exactly is Owen picking Heatmor? I know he's strong and all, but why wouldn't he choose Muk? He's the strongest Pokemon Owen has," Rebecca asked the two older trainers.
"He may be a higher level, but Heatmor isn't like the others," CJ replied, which piqued Rebecca's interest. "We've met all of Owen's Pokemon at Professor Oak's lab, and we even got to see some of his strongest Pokemon when we traveled through Kanto," CJ told the younger girl while turning to her. "Heatmor has something that they don't. I don't know what it is, but he's special."
"This battle will be between Unfezant and Heatmor! Begin!"
"Unfezant, swoop down and use Drill Peck!" Skyla commanded while looking at Heatmor. She knew that the fire type species was typically bulky, so she figured that Heatmor wasn't able to evade the attack. Much to her dismay, Skyla's judgement of Owen's Heatmor was dead wrong.
"Heatmor, jump onto the rings in the air!" Owen demanded while pointing at the closest of the large red hoops. Heatmor sprung into the air and landed on the ring while Unfezant crashed into the ground Heatmor had just been standing on. "Now use Flame Burst!" Heatmor turned around and shot a bullet of fire towards Unfezant, which struck the fully evolved Pokemon and charred her to a crisp.
"Unfezant, use Gust to blow Heatmor off the rings!" Unfezant began to flap her wings as quickly as possible, which created a wicked wind. Heatmor, however, didn't remain stationary and he began hopping to the other rings.
"Way to go, Heatmor! Land a Fury Swipes attack!" Owen told the fire type. Heatmor nodded at his trainer and he jumped off the ring he was standing on, but he managed to latch on with his hands. He then began to swing from ring to ring before slashing Unfezant repeatedly with his glowing white claws.
"Fight back with Close Combat, Unfezant!" Unfezant managed to dodge one of Heatmor's attempted scratches, and the two Pokemon began to scratch and kick each other at a furious rate.
"Flame Burst!" Heatmor launched Unfezant across the battlefield with an unexpected Flame Burst attack, which did maximum damage because it was at pointblank range. Skyla cursed under her breath again before going for broke with her next attack.
"Drill Peck!"
"Flame Wheel!" Heatmor wrapped himself in fire before spinning towards Tranquill's evolution, while Unfezant's beak extended while glowing white. She then began spinning like a drill while Heatmor spun like a wheel. The two attacks collided in the middle of the battlefield, and Heatmor quickly overpowered his flying type opponent. Unfezant then skidded across the ground before stopping just in front of Skyla with her eyes shut tight.
"Unfezant is unable to battle! Skyla, choose your last Pokemon!" the girl's grandfather yelled energetically. Heatmor flexed before releasing a stream of fire from his tail before turning to Snivy, who winked at him. The fire type nodded back at the grass type and waited for his last opponent to appear.
"I'm surprised you managed to defeat my Unfezant given your matchup. Impressive," Skyla complimented, causing Heatmor to beam proudly. "But it's time for the star of the show! Mandibuzz, fly high!"
"Mandibuzz, the Bone Vulture Pokemon. It makes a nest out of the bones it finds. It grabs weakened prey in its talons and hauls it to its nest of bones." Mandibuzz looked similar to a vulture, and it had a pink head, a body covered in white and brown feathers, and a stubby black beak.
"Be careful, Heatmor. And let's give it our all!" Owen exclaimed. Heatmor nodded and prepared to attack his opponent.
"This battle will be between Mandibuzz and Heatmor! Begin!"
"Heatmor, swing from ring to ring and use Hone Claws!" Owen shouted to the anteater Pokemon. Heatmor nodded before springing into the air and swinging from each red ring while he grew three white claws. Once they retracted a ring of red energy circled around Heatmor before disappearing into thin air, which worried Skyla because she knew how dangerous Hone Claws made an opponent.
"Use Gust to knock Heatmor off the rings!" she commanded while trying to keep Heatmor at bay. Mandibuzz whipped its brown wings forward and a blast of wind was sent straight at Heatmor, who wasn't able to hop to a different ring. Owen noticed Heatmor's poor positioning and managed to counter the flying type attack successfully with quick thinking.
"Throw yourself in the air and use Fury Swipes!" Owen yelled while punching his fist forward. Heatmor's momentum allowed him to fling himself towards the large vulture while his claws began to glow white and he landed a series of scratches while grabbing onto Mandibuzz's wing. The bulky Pokemon tried shaking off her heavy opponent, but she wasn't able to.
"Counter by slamming Heatmor into the ground with Wing Attack!" Thanks to her trainer, Mandibuzz was able to pry Heatmor off her body by smashing her free wing over his head. The fire type landed on his feet, but rubbed his head in pain until he heard Owen shout from across the battlefield.
"Heatmor, use Fire Pledge!" Skyla and her grandfather scoffed at the attack, thinking that Owen was bluffing. Much to their surprise, Heatmor's stomach began to glow orange, and a column of fire engulfed Mandibuzz after he slammed his fist on the ground. Mandibuzz then fell from the sky, but Skyla took advantage of her heavy Pokemon's descent.
"Mandibuzz, use Wing Attack repeatedly!" she ordered while pointing at Heatmor. The anteater Pokemon was struck by a flurry of slaps from Mandibuzz and her glowing wings, but he was able to blow Mandibuzz away because of Owen's counter.
"Use Flame Burst to get some separation!" he roared. Heatmor shot a gigantic bullet of fire at the hairy vulture that exploded on contact. Mandibuzz skidded back to Skyla's half of the battlefield, and both trainers noticed their fatigued Pokemon panting and hunching over.
"Aerial Ace!"
"Flame Wheel!" Both Pokemon flew towards one another while Mandibuzz had white streaks of light fly off her beak, and Heatmor was enveloped in fire. The two Pokemon collided and were sent flying back to their trainers because of the force of the collision. After inspecting both sides, Skyla's grandfather finally spoke up.
"Both Pokemon are unable to battle!" Skyla's grandpa shouted while sticking both his arms straight in the air. Owen and Skyla ran to their Pokemon's sides and thanked them for their efforts.
"Mandibuzz, that was a great job. Thank you."
"Heatmor, you were a beast out there. Thanks for never giving up," Owen told the fire type, who smiled weakly before being carried over to the chairs behind him. "You deserve to watch us win, Heatmor. Take it easy." The fire type nodded at his trainer's words while Snivy and Sawk congratulated him along with the three trainers.
"So what happens now, grandpa?" Skyla asked while looking over at the elderly man.
"Back when I was the gym leader, I used to have a Sky Battle with my opponent. If they couldn't participate, then they lost."
"That sounds like a great idea! Swanna, it's time for a sky battle!" Skyla sang as she threw her fourth Pokeball in the air. A large bipedal swan appeared in the air and it shot Owen a fearsome look.
"Uhm, what exactly is a Sky Battle?" Owen asked Skyla.
"It's a battle where only Pokemon that can fly participate," she answered, causing Owen to face palm at his own stupidity. He then looked at the two Pokeballs on his belt and at Snivy. Krokorok and Snivy couldn't fly, and Puff didn't have wings.
"I don't know if this counts, but come on out!" Owen yelled. Puff appeared from the thrown Pokeball, and she looked up at her water and flying type opponent. She then looked over at her trainer and gave him a confident nod before turning back around.
"Sorry, but Jigglypuff aren't able to Sky Battle," Skyla's grandfather told Owen, causing him to hang his head dejectedly while Puff inflated in rage.
"Hmm… I think we'll just have a one versus one match," Skyla decided. Owen immediately looked back up with a thankful smile on his face, which Skyla and the ref noticed.
"Okay. This battle will be between Swanna and Puff! Begin!"
"Swanna, use Water Gun!" Skyla ordered. Swanna reared back and fired a jet stream of water at Puff. Owen, however, refused to let the water type attack hit the Pokemon he was counting on.
"Dodge it and use DoubleSlap, Puff!" Puff jumped over the attack and inflated in order to fly through the air. Then, she began to slap Swanna across the face continuously until Skyla and her strongest Pokemon were able to knock Puff away.
"Jab Puff with Peck, Swanna!" Swanna's long yellow beak began to glow white, causing Puff to stop slapping her opponent. The pink ball stared at the blindingly bright beak, and it jabbed her in the chest, causing Puff to cry out in pain while flying through several rings. With quick thinking, Puff grabbed onto one of the rings and began to swing from them like Heatmor had previously done, causing Owen to grin confidently.
"Let's keep the pressure! Use Rollout!" Puff swung from the last ring and inflated while spinning like a wheel. She then barreled into Swanna and even knocked the water and flying type into the ground, causing a cloud of dust to shoot up and cover her white coat. Swanna stood up angrily while Puff floated back to the ground lightly, leaving her open to being attack.
"Swanna, hit back with Water Gun!" Swanna nailed Puff with a wicked blast of water, which sent Puff rolling across the battlefield before stopping in front of Owen. She then hopped back up and charged towards Swanna with an angered look on her face.
"Keep at it, Puff! Grab Swanna and use a Dynamic Punch Tomahawk!" Owen boomed. Puff lunged forward and threw her crimson colored fist down on Swanna's head, slamming the water and flying type against the ground once more. Skyla bit her lip at the painful sight, but spoke up to issue another command to her final Pokemon.
"Swanna, use Peck!" Swanna's beak turned a bright white and she attempted to jab Puff once again. Without even looking, Puff grabbed Swanna's beak and held her still while the elegant bird tried to pull away from her pink opponent.
"This is where we end it! Puff, use Sing!" Puff nodded excitedly before singing. A series of colorful music notes appeared and struck Swanna, causing the swan to fall asleep instantly. Puff then let go of the powerful Pokemon's beak and prepared to deal one final blow.
"Swanna, wake up!" Skyla pleaded while looking down at her sleeping Pokemon. Swanna didn't respond to her trainer's words, which allowed Owen and Puff to attack once more.
"Dynamic Punch!" Puff's stubby arm was covered in bright crimson energy, and she punched Swanna in the beak. The water and flying type was launched across the battlefield and she knocked Skyla over. After getting back on her feet, Skyla gaped when she saw that Swanna had fainted, which meant she lost the battle.
"Swanna is unable to battle! That means Owen is the winner!" Skyla's grandpa roared while throwing his hands in the air. Puff cheered excitedly before being swamped by Sawk, Snivy, and Heatmor. The four Pokemon continued celebrating while Owen was handed his sixth badge.
"Congratulations. As proof of your victory, here's the Jet Badge," Skyla told the younger boy while handing him the tiny piece of metal. Owen grabbed his sixth badge and placed it in his badge case before bowing to Skyla respectfully. The plane then descended, and everyone hopped off the battlefield once the walls were brought down.
"Skyla, it's good to see you," a strange teen told the girl as soon as they landed. He had spiky green hair and black skin along with blue eyes. He wore a green and red silver styled coat, blue jeans, and red sneakers. He also had an iPod holder on his belt and he wore a pair of gloves.
"Mark, it's been a while!" Skyla exclaimed before hugging the unfamiliar teen. "Owen, I'd like you to meet Mark Fudo. He's the newest member of the Unova Elite Four," Skyla told the fourteen year old.
"Fudo? Hey, you're Shadix's brother!" Owen shouted while shaking Mark's hand.
"Step-brother, but yeah, I am," he replied.
"So what brings you to Mistralton City?" Skyla asked curiously.
"I was asked to deliver something to Owen Plateau, which I'm guessing is you," he stated while looking at Owen. The dark blonde nodded in response, and Mark handed him a black rock. "Professor Juniper said that you'll know when to use it or something. Well, I'm off to go investigate some robbery in-" Mark was cut off by a massive explosion in the distance, and it appeared to come from the top of a tower.
"Celestial Tower!" Skyla shouted while pointing at the explosion.
"Don't worry, I'll go check it out," Mark told the redhead as he turned to leave.
"Hold on," Owen told the Elite Four member. "I'm coming with you." Mark scanned the boy that had offered his assistance, and he nodded while motioning for Owen to hurry up. After withdrawing all of his Pokemon except for Snivy, Owen ran after Shadix's step-brother, and the two headed over to the sight of the explosion.
Thanks to shadowmwape for submitting Mark! So, Owen won his sixth badge, and he's now investigating an explosion at Celestial Tower! Next chapter will revolve around the summoning of a legendary Pokemon, and a Heatmor breakdown (and flashback)! Till next time, peace out.
