Pokémon: The Prism League Chapter 4 : Top Notch Training
Disclaimer: I do not own Pokémon.
I recommend opening another page going to youtube then bring up Pokémon theme the first movie version and begin to play when I give the go. Also in sections were only Pokémon are talking the dialog will be in English without translating.
16 months until the Prism League
The morning sun shinned brightly in Pallet Town the perfect weather for Ash and his friends to begin their first day of training at the Oak ranch with Ash's newly assembled team. "Finally time to get down to training!" Ash cheered with uncontrollable excitement.
"Only a little kid would get this excited about training." Iris groaned.
"Well that's Ash for you, the only thing he loves more than training is battling and eating." Brock replied.
"So Ash what is it you want to work on first?" Misty asked.
"You know I hadn't thought about what to do first." Ash replied causing everyone to face fault.
"For a while there I forgot it was Ash we were dealing with." Said Misty.
"Yeah me to." Said Brock.
"Same old Ashy-boy." Gary agreed.
"Might I make a suggestion? Cilan asked with a sweat-drop.
"Sure Cilan." Ash replied.
"Thank you, now the key to making a great dish is knowing the recipe and then refining it so I belive that is what we should." Cilan explained.
"What does that mean? Bianca asked not being use to the connoisseur's way of speaking.
"We can't always tell." Iris groaned.
"Do Pokémon connoisseurs compare everything to food?" Dawn asked rhetorically.
"Piplup." (Maybe.) The tiny penguin in Dawn's arms agreed.
"I never though I would meet someone who thinks about food more then Ash and May." Max pushed his glasses up.
"What was that?" May turned to her bother in furry.
"I think what Cilan is trying to say is the best way for Ash to start his training is going over his battle style and his Pokémon then seeing how to improve on them." Brock translated for their connoisseur friend.
"Precisely Brock." Cilan praised.
"That's a pretty good idea, alright Ash you let Cilan and I watch your Pokémon battle with everyone and then we'll give you a complete report on your team then we can figure out were to go from there." Gary informed his friend as he took out his laptop.
(Pokémon theme the first movie version)
"Now were talking, let's get started." Ash turned his hat around before he took a pokeball from his belt then through it in the air releasing Bulbasaur.
"You got it Ash." Misty agreed throwing out her own pokeball releasing Starmie.
Bulbasaur charged Starmie with a Take Down hitting the water type Starmie quickly shook it off then began firing Water Gun at Bulbasur who easily dodged each shot. Bulbasaur unleashed it's Vine Whip then wrapped them around Starmie which was the countered with Rapid Spin sending the grass type flying across the field landing on its feet Bulbasaur attacked with Razor Leaf while Starmie used Swift.
Sudowoodo attacked with Hammer Arm while Heracross met it blow for blow with Focus Punch. Heracross followed up with a flurry of Horn Attacks each being dodge by Sudowoodo who then used mimic to copy the attack then clashed once more with the bug and fighting type. Sudowoodo jump back then charged in with a Double Edge, Heracross powered up for a Mega Horn meeting Double Edge head-on.
Snorlax jumped into the air then landed hard causing an Earthquake bringing its opponent Mamoswine to its knees. Mamoswine rose to its feet then fired Ice Shards at Snorlax, the large Pokémon braced itself as the shards smashed into body then watch as Mamoswine attack with an Ice Fang Snorlax grabbed Mamoswine's ice encased tusks and began to be pushed back. Snorlax stopped the tusk Pokémon from taking ground then delivered a powerful Ice Punch to Mamoswine's face sending it back. Mamoswine gather energy to use Hidden Power while Snorlax did the same to use Hyper Beam the two attacks collided in an explosion of energy. When the smock cleared both Pokémon stood strong nether ready to back down.
High above the battlefield Togekiss and Swellow clashed Togekiss's Sky Attack against Swellow's Aerial Ace. Both Pokémon fired an Air slash that ended in a stalemate. Swellow dove beneath Togekiss then climbed quickly trying to use Peck. Togekiss dodged the attack then unleashed an Aura Sphere Which Swellow swatted away with its Wing Attack.
Grovyle fired its Bullet Seed at Oshawott but was blocked by the sea otter's scalchop. Grovyle rushed in Leaf Blades full extended while Oshawott attacked with its Shell Blade. The grass and water types slipped past each other delivering a strike with their blades. Oshawott fired its water gun narrowly missing Grovyle as it jumped over oshawott then came down with a Pound attack. Oshawott dodged using Aqua Jet before coming back around for another attack. Grovyle dodged the incoming water type then readied its Leaf Blades for the next attack.
Steelix brought down its Iron Tail just missing Infernape. The fire monkey charged up Steelix body in a Flame Wheel striking the iron snake in the jaw. Steelix retaliated with Stone Edge striking Infernape knocking it to the ground. Infernape quickly recovered then dodged steelix Dragon Breath before charging forward through a Stone Edge attack then hit Steelix point-blank with a Flamethrower. The Iron Snake Pokémon recoiled in pain the returned with a Double Edge attack which Infernape challenged with a Flair Blitz. Both Pokémon collided with one another before both were set flying across the field.
Vigoroth stopped Donphan's Take Down with its Slash attack sending Donphan into the air then lending on its feet back on the battlefield. Donphan fired a Hidden Power that was easily dodged by the wild monkey who then attack with Flamethrower. Donphan used its Rollout to pass through the flames and strike Vigoroth in the chest. A swift Focus Punch knocked Donphan back giving Vigoroth time to fire an Ice Beam, Donphan countered with a Hyper Beam both attacks canceled the other out. Vigoroth prepared to attack when out of the smoke Donphan charged in for another Take Down.
Sceptile and Blaziken were in close combat, Sceptile attacking with Leaf Blade and Blaziken unleashing a barrage of Blaze Kicks. Both Pokémon broke apart from one another then rushed in for another assault. Blaziken ducked under a Leaf Blade then rose up with a Sky Uppercut. Sceptile leaned back doing a back hand spring barely dodging the uppercut. Now above its opponent Blaziken unleashed an Overheat while back on the field Sceptile launched a Solar Beam. The attacks met in a blast that could be seen from all over Pallet Town.
Ash and his Pokémon lay sprawled out on the grassy field completely exhausted from the numerous battles they had just faced all except one Pokémon who was quietly trying to sneak its way over to Bulbasaur who had been relaxing with Pikachu, Wartorle, Charizard, Pidgeot and Butterfree. Sensing someone was neer Bulbasaur opened its eyes to see none other then Heracross trying to steal sap from his bulb again. "How many times do I have to whack it into that think shell of yours that I'm not your snack!" Bulbasaur growled wiping Heracross with his Vine Whips.
"But it taste so yummy." Heracross stated between whips.
"I don't care!" Bulbasaur replied continuing to whip until Heracross retreated. "What a pain."
"You never change bulbasaur." Wartorle laughed at his friend's frustration.
"Well evolving hasn't done much to make you less annoying." Bulbasaur said laying back down.
"You two are still fighting, it's almost like nothings changed around here." Pidgeot chuckled.
"Peigeopt is right, if you guys hadn't evolved I would think it was just like the old days." Butterfree pointed out.
"Yeah it's been a long time since it was just the six of us and Ash together. Pikachu said in nostalgia.
"And we have come a long way since we all first met and just think how much farther we'll be by the time the Prism League arrives." Said Charizard.
"Is battling all you ever think about?" Bulbasaur asked the large dragon.
"So what if I like to think about battling you should think about it yourself then maybe you can evolve." Charizard huffed.
"I have no plan to evolve anytime soon." Bulbasaur replied calmly.
"Really cause I think you and Venusaur would make a better couple if you guys were the same size." Wartortel snickered.
"I told you we're not a couple were just friends!" Bulbasaur growled with a blush.
"Bubasaur's right, no way Venusaur would be into someone that's three times smaller than her." Charizard joked getting Bulbasaur annoyed.
"At least I never lost a battle to Venusaur in one move." Bulbasaur smirked knowing he hit a sore spot.
A vain in Charizard's head began to throb with anger. "I did not loss to to Charla, I was angry and I was not fighting at my best." Charizard said through his clenched teeth.
"Yep because that's just the hot head you are and when you get angry and blow your match at the Prism League I'll be there to fight with a cool and collected head to clean up your mess." Bulbasuar said confidently.
"Forget battling my opponent why don't you try battling me you little weed." Charizard said gaining a surge of energy.
"Bring it on flame brain." Bulbasaur shot back ready to battle.
"Come on guys we don't need to do this." Pikachu stepped between his friends hoping to prevent a fight.
"If we battle our opponents hafe as well as we battle each other then we'll be unbeatable." Butterfree said breaking the tension getting everyone laughing even Charizard and Bulbasaur.
Meanwhile on the other side of the ranch Snivy and Oshawott were still recovering from their battles. "And I thought the training we use to do was tough." Oshawott groaned.
"Says the slacker." Snivy replied.
"I didn't slack, I just let you and the others battle before I took my turn." Oshawott defended.
"Well get use to training longer and harder, if were going to win the Prism League we all need to be at our best and we can't have any weak links." Snivy said straight forward as always.
"You got the right idea Snivy." Snivy and Oshawott looked to find Sceptile had joined them.
"Sceptile!" Snivy said surprised to see the Forest Pokémon.
"Hey snivy did somebody hit you with attract?" Oshawott laughed watching Snivy stiffen up.
"Beat it slacker!" Snivy growled then sent Oshawatt flying with her Vine Whip.
"It was just a joke!" Oshawott cried as he flew through the air into a pond.
"I was really impressed with you Snivy." Sceptile said as he leaned against a tree his trademark twig still held in his mouth.
"Really?" Snivy blushed.
"Of course, your pretty good on the battlefield and you even know Leaf Storm, I didn't know how to use that move until after I evolved and even then it took me a long time to learn, but you have it done no problem." Sceptile smiled a snivy.
"Oh I'm nothing special, your the one who's impressive, I hear your one of the strongest out of all of us." Snivy looked away from her fellow grass type hoping he did not see her blushing.
"I don't know about that." Sceptile replied cool as could be not wanting to brag." I hate to say it but Charizard gives me all I can handle when we battle and if he's not eating or sleeping Snorlax is pretty tough.
"Well Pikachu told us the story about how you beat that undefeated Darkri." Snivy said still in aw of the story.
"That was one of my best battles but it was a team effort beating Darkri, just like you said we all need to be at our best because we're strongest when we work together." Sceptile replied with a smile.
"Right." Snivy agreed.
"And I think the two of us would make a pretty great team." Sceptile added causing Snivy to lose what little cool she had left.
"I have to go now nice talking to you Sceptile." Snivy said quickly as she walked away her face grew redder by the second.
"What's with her?" Sceptile asked completely unaware of the he was the cause of Snivy's usually behavior.
"I hope the battles at the Prism League aren't all back to back." Ash said to himself laying back in the grass still tired. Ash shut his eyes allowing himself to relax hearing the grass rustling beneath him, smelling the fresh flowers and feeling the wind against his face put Ash in a state of total peace.
"Are you the one?"
Ash's eyes snapped open before sitting up to see who had called to him looking around him trying to find the owner of the unfamiliar voice he had heard. "Who was that?"
"Hey Ash, Gary and Cilan are ready so come on." Dawn said to the disoriented trainer.
"Yeah I'll be right there Dawn, did you hear a voice a minute ago?" Ash asked.
"Nope, why?"
"Oh no reason."
"Ok then lets go." Dawn beckoned Ash along.
"Coming." Ash replied.
Moments later Ash and the others were gathered around Gary as he pulled up the data on Ash's team. "Alright Ashy-boy were going to try to make this as simple as we can for you."
"Just show us what you found out." Ash shot back.
"Fine, Cilan." Gary addressed the connoisseur.
"Alright then Ash we've gone over the data and compared our own first hand experience with you and found the four main keys to your battling style which are speed, power, versatility and unpredictability." Cilan began. "Most of your Pokémon have high levels of speed and offensive abilities which when put together allow you do deal great amounts of damage. Also with such a wide verity of Pokémon you have the advantage of being prepared for almost any kind of match up and the most important ingredient to the Ash battle recipe is your amazing ability to create a winning strategies on the spot in the most unorthodox of ways."
"I know that much already." Ash informed.
"Just let him talk Ashy-boy." Said Gray allowing Cilan to continue.
"Next is the break down of you team, Pokémon such as Pikachu, Buizel, Quilava and Snivy are your sources of speed." "Then you have those who provided overwhelming power like Torterra, Donphan and Herracross." "And finally those who are your most well-rounded Pokémon Charizard, Sceptile and Snorlax."
"When taking all of this into consideration I believe one step to improving on your battling style would be to strengthen your defense."
"My defense?" Ash repeated.
"He has a point Ash, you don't have many moves meant just for defense." Brock explained.
"Precisely, moves that strengthen you teams defensive power will prove very beneficial." Cilan added.
"That does make sense but who should I have learn defensive moves?" Ash questioned.
"Perfect question for the next topic and that's teaching your Pokémon new moves that will help combat against type disadvantages." Cilan answered. "I think it would be a good idea to teach Pikachu Light Screen."
"Pikachu can use Light Screen." Ash said surprised.
"Yep it's perfect, it cuts the strength of your opponents special attacks in hafe and it protects you whole team." Gary informed.
"Great, well Pikachu looks like we're going to learn Light Screen." Ash said to his partner Pokémon.
"Pika pika." (You got it.)
"The next thing you should do is teach some of your Pokémon attacks that will help them counter an opponent that has a type advantage." Gary informed.
"Using offense for defense that's more like it!" Ash cheered.
When Gary and Cilan finished their review Ash began to break his Pokémon up into groups to learn new Attacks. Sceptile was currently teaching Snivy and Bayleef to use Solarbeam as well Charizard so that he could be better prepared for water and rock type opponents.
Lapras with the help of Glalie was showing Ash's other Water types how to use Ice Beam. Gible was under the instruction of both Infernape and Krookodile to learn Flamethrower and Dragon Claw to combat ice types and other dragon types.
Torterra was attempting it's second try at Stone Edge under the watchful eyes of Gliscor and Boldore. And with the assistance of Ash's Mother's Mr. Mime Pikachu was learning the basics of Light Screen with great success.
After going around to check on everyone's progress Ash took a momentary break to sit with his friends. "It looks like everyone is improving really fast." Max said observing the Pokémon.
"Yep and we're gonna keep improving until nobody can stop us." Ash said Confidently.
"I feel sorry for whoever you go up against first Ash." May laughed.
"Speaking of which do you know who's going to be in this competition?" Asked Bianca.
"Yeah I was wondering about that to." Said Dawn.
"Well I don't know too much about who will be there but I do know my friends Cameron and Virgil will be there."
"Virgil he won the Unova League didn't he?" Asked Misty.
"And Cameron was the one who had a Lucario." Said Max.
"Yeah and they were both really strong, it's no surprise that they got invited to the Prism League." Iris informed.
"How does someone get invited anyway?" Asked May.
"When I got my prism pokeball from Alder he told me that trainers who showed enough skill to Pokémon League officials would be invited, I don't know much else." Ash told the coördinator. "Misty, Brock do you guys know anything about it?"
"The Pokémon League said they would look over past competition to take in to consideration of a trainers being invited." Misty replied.
"It's likely that they did the same for you to." Brock added.
"You have done really well in the past so it makes scenes that they would invite you now." Said Tracy.
"Yeah but if that's the case then I wonder who else will be there." Ash thought aloud.
"If there inviting people from past competitions then Tobias will probably there." Dawn said grimly.
"I know Tobias is gonna be there, he's to strong not to be." Ash replied.
"Who's Tobias?" Bianca asked.
"He's an incredibly strong trainer that Ash faced in the Sinnoh League." Brock answered thinking back on the battle.
"He earned all of his gym badges and won almost every round of the Sinnoh League with just his Darkri." Said Dawn.
"Just one Pokémon!" Iris said astonished.
"Yeah, Ash was the only person to beat Darkri but Tobias beat Ash with his Latios and then he won the Sinnoh League." Said Tracy.
"With two Pokémon that powerful it's not hard to see how he won." Said May.
"Tobias is the reason I wanted Latias and Latios on my team, he's one of the toughest trainers I've ever faced and I know he'll be at the Prism League." Ash explained. "Having Latias and Latios was one of the only ways I could think of evening things up."
"Even with two legendary Pokémon of your own there's no guarantee that you will be on equal terms with Tobias." Brock stated.
"I know and I'm still worried about that." Ash said in a low tone.
"And who knows he could have even more legendary Pokémon on his team." Max considered.
"That could be quite troublesome." Cilan thought aloud.
"No kidding, facing a whole team of Pokémon that powerful seems impossible." Iris said worried.
"Their power isn't the only problem." Gary joined in. "It will be difficult to come up with a strategy for Tobias's legendary Pokémon when we don't know much about them and we only know what two of them are."
"We'd need an expert." Dawn sighed followed by the others.
"An expert that's it!" Ash said from out of nowhere.
"Huh?" the other teens said surprised.
"I need an expert on legendary Pokémon to help me."
"Ash that's a little easier said then done, do you even know anyone who's an expert?" May asked skeptically.
"Yeah I do, His name's Professor Hale." Ash replied.
"Hey good thinking Ash." Gary said catching on to Ash's idea.
"Wait THE Professor Hale?" Max asked wide-eyed.
"Who's Professor Hale?" Dawn asked casually.
"He's only the worlds leading authority in the study of legendary Pokémon!" Max scolded the coordinator.
"Oh alright." Dawn said frightened.
"Never tell my brother that you've haven't heard of a famous professor." May told the bluenette.
"Thanks for the warning."
"That's a good idea Ash if anyone can help you it's Professor Hale." Said Tracy.
"And you're in luck he's coming here to Pallet to help Grandpa with a project." Gary informed.
"That's great I'll run it by Professor Oak later." Ash said with renewed confidence.
Having come up with a way to prepare for Tobias Ash returned to training with even more drive. After having his Pokémon continue their attack training Ash began a round of double battles with Ash battling two of his friends at once. Charizard went up against Gyradose to test his new SolarBeam attack while Unfezant battled Pachirisu. Totodile and Pikachu faced off with Grovyle and Scyther to practice with Ice Beam and Light Screen. Snorlax and Infernape were paired to battle Nidoking and Ludicolo. The day's training continued on with all of Ash pokemon participating in battles or continuing to practice their new attacks.
Lunchtime was fast approaching leaving Ash enough time for one more battle before their next break. "Alright guys who wants to go next?" Ash asked several of his Pokémon who all were still eager to battle. "Ok Quilava, Gible your up!" Both Pokémon let out a cry of excitement at being picked then took their place on the battle field. "Dawn, May can you guys use Glaceon and Ambipom?"
"Sure thing." Both coordinators agreed then took there places opposite to Ash.
"Ambipom spotlight!"
"Glaceon take the stage!"
The Fresh Snow and Long Tail Pokémon emerged from their pokeballs then stood ready to battle. "Ready." Ash opponents confirmed.
"May and Dawn will make a tough team." Misty stated.
"Seeing how Ash faces two top coordinators should be quite interesting." Cilan said from the sidelines next to a violently shaking Iris.
"What's with Iris?" Misty asked.
"Iris has a taste for ice types just as you have a taste for bug types." Cilan sweat-dropped.
"Oh, sorry I asked." Misty cringed.
"Lets go Gible, Quilava use Flamethrower!" Both Pokémon did as they were commanded then unleashed a burst of flames from their mouths. "Yes, Gible has Flamethrower down perfect!" Ash cheered seeing his dragon types success.
"Ambipom use swift!" Dawn ordered.
Ambipom began to twirl rapidly as star-shaped rays were fired from her twin tails that formed a wall blocking Ash's attack. "What?" Ash said surprised by use of swift.
"Glaceon use Secret Power. A pink aura surrounded Glaceon as it charged forward jumping through the wall of energized stars then smashed into Quilava and Gible.
"Are you guys ok?" Ash called to his Pokémon as the shook of the attack the each gave a growl of agreement. "Right, Gible use Dragon Pulse on Ambipom and Quilava you use Quick Attack on Glaceon!" Gible opened its mouth and formed a turquoise ball of energy the fired it at Ambipom while Quilava charged Glaceon at high speeds leaving a trail of light behind it.
"Ambipom send it back using Double Hit!"
"Use Ice Shard and then Shadow Ball Glaceon!"
Doing as her trainer had told her Ambipom struck the Dargon Pulse with her tail once stopping them a second time sending it back hitting Gible with it's own attack. As Quilava sped forward Glaceon opened her mouth unleashing a barrage of icy shards on the Volcano Pokémon stopping it in its track the fired a Shadow Ball dealing even more damage.
"Now Glaceon use Blizzard!" May ordered.
"Quick Gible use dig, Quilava fallow Gible!" Ash advised. Glaceon prepared itself to summon a howling freezing wind while Gible dug a hole escaping the attack fallowed by it's teammate.
"Where'd they go?" Dawn asked as she looked over the battle field while the Pokémon did the same. A moment later Quilave and Gible burst from the ground behind their opponents then Gible struck Glaceon with a Rock Smash and Qulava hit Ambipom with a Flame Wheel.
"Yes, nice comeback you two." Ash encouraged his Pokémon.
"Were not done yet Ash." May smiled as she warned Ash.
"That right, Ambipom use Swift!" Dawn commanded.
"And Glaceon use Ice Beam. Ambipom let lose another flurry of stars into the air that were then hit by Glaceon's Ice Beam energizing them with ice turning the stars from gold to icy blue.
"Quilava Flame Wheel!" Ash ordered. Quilava took a running start then tucked itself in to a wheel and became surround by its flames before barreling through the ice Swift.
"Dawn and May's moves sure are impressive." Iris said in aw of the attacks.
"For coordinators their combinations are key." Max informed Iris.
"Gible use Dragon Pulse!"
"Glaceon Ice Beam again!"
Gible fired its Dragon Pulse and Glaceon unleashed Ice Beam. The freezing beam struck the orb stopping its advance before both attacks exploded leaving a cloud of smoke. When the field was clear their was no sign of Quilava and Gible only Glaceon and Ambipom. Quilava and Gible emerged from the ground once again this time beneath Glaceon and Ambipom to hit Glaceon with Flame Wheel and Ambipom with Dragon Claw.
"Keep it up you two." Ash cheered.
"Alright Ambipom use Focus Punch!" Dawn called out. Ambipom's tails glowed light blue as she rushed towards her opponents.
"Get ready guys." Ash warned.
"Now Glaceon Secret Power!" Ambipom linked her tails together creating a ring over her head, Glaceon then jumped onto Ambipom's tail then launched herself at Gible and Quilava hitting them with Secret Power leaving them open to another strike from Ambipom's Focus Punch.
"Hang in there guys!" Ash called to his Pokémon as they rose to their feet. "Ok Quilava use swift!" Quilava fired a wave of energized stars from its mouth at Glaceon and Ambipom.
"Quick Ambipom use your Swift to counter it!" Dawn cried out. Ambipom once again fired her Swift attack creating a wall blocking Ash's attack. "You'll have to do better than that Ash." Dawn said confidently.
"You got it, Gible Draco Meteor!" Gible formed an orange sphere in its mouth then fired it into the sky where it exploded causing dozens of smaller spheres to rain down on the Coordinators Pokémon.
"Glaceon!"
"Oh no Ambipom!"
"An excellent use of diversion tactics." Cilan said impressed.
"Diversion tactics?" Iris said confused.
"Ash had May and Dawn focus on a frontal assault from Quilava leaving them open giving Gible the chance to attack from above." Brock explained to the younger trainer.
"Wow that is a good move." Iris agreed.
"Yeah the only time Ash every uses his head is on the battlefield." Said Misty.
"After that Draco Meteor Gible's special attacks will be weaker so we'll have to go with physical attacks." Ash though seeing that Gible was beginning to breath heaver. "Ok Gible use Dig!"
"I don't think so Ash, Glaceon use Ice Beam on the field!" May told her Pokémon.
"What?" Ash watched as Glaceon's Ice Beam swept across the field covering it in ice.
"Good job May, now Gible can't use dig anymore." Dawn praised her partner.
"I wanted to get in close using dig but now I can't." Ash said to himself. "Then we'll just have to go straight in, Gible use Dragon Claw and Quilava use Quick attack!"
"Ambipom use Focus Punch!"
"Glaceon use Secret power!"
Gible's Dragon Claw clashed with Ambipom's Focus Punch while Quilave's Quick Attack went against Glaceon's Secret Power but the Coordinators attacks proved to powerful knocking the fire and dragon types to the ground. "Quilava, Gible!" Ash cried out to his Pokémon as they struggled to stand.
"Lets wrap this up Dawn." May said to her Partner.
"You got it." Dawn Agreed.
"Now Glaceon, Ice Shard!"
"Ambipom use Swift!"
Gible and Quilave rose to the feet to see a storm of ice and stars headed towards them and with the field still frozen using Dig to escape was not possible leaving them no option other then to brace themselves for the attack. "Quilava, Gible!" Ash called to his Pokémon as they became surrounded in a thick cloud of smoke.
"This could be the end." Cilan stated.
Ash watch the smoke cloud hoping to see any sign of his Pokémon when suddenly a bright light cut through the smoke. "What?" Ash watched as the light grew bright leaving everyone in shock once they saw that the light was coming from both Quilava and Gible. "They're both evolving!" The smoke cleared and light faded showing the two new Pokémon. Quilava had almost doubled in size and now stood on its hind legs resembling a badger and the fiery vents on its back had moved to around its neck just above it shoulders. Gible had grown considerably larger its limbs and torso becoming much longer and fins that made it resemble a jet with a cut in the fin on its back define it as a male. Both Pokémon looked over their new bodies then let out intimidating roars.
"Gible evolved into Gabite and Quilava evolved into Typhlosion." Brock said in aw.
"That's awesome." Max said taking out his pokedex to scan Ash's new Pokémon.
"Typhlosion the Volcano Pokémon, Typhlosion attacks using blasts of fire and creates heat shimmers with intense fire to hide itself." The pokedex chirped. "Gabite the Cave Pokémon, Gabite loves shiny things and it seeks treasures in caves and hoards the loot in its nest."
"That's awesome that you both evolved, now lets win this!" Ash said with a new surge of energy as both Pokémon gave a cry of agreement.
"Heads up Dawn here they come." May warned her teammate.
As Ash's Pokémon prepared to attack the flame around Typhlosion neck ignited and began grow, the heat from Typhlosion could be felt by Brock and the other on the sidelines. Ash watched confused until he looked at the field and saw the ice melting. "Good job Typhlosion!"
"He melted the field." Dawn said surprised.
"Now Typhlosion Flame Wheel!" Ash ordered. Typhlosion's fire grew then surrounded it as it charged ahead.
"Ambipom us Swift!" Ambipom let loose another shower of stars on the newly evolved fire type only to have them bounce off like they were nothing before being tackled by Typlhlosion. Gabite burst from the ground behind Glaceon then fired a powerful Dragon Pulse knocking Glaceon into he teammate.
"How come Swift didn't work Typhlosion?" Iris asked confused.
"Typhlosion has the strongest Flame Wheel of any Pokémon which protected it from Ambipom's Swift." Cilan explained.
"Alright Glaceon use Blizzard!" Glaceon opened her mouth unleashing a chilling wind.
"And Ambipom you use Swift!" Ambipom fired another Swift this time into the Blizzard freezing the Swift just as the Ice Beam had.
"Time to finish this, double Flamethrower!" Ash said thrusting his fist forward.
Typhlosion and Gabite both fired a burst of flames from their mouths that joined together in one blast of fire blowing through the Blizzard Swift combination then struck the coordinators Pokémon knocking them out.
"Glaceon!"
"Ambipom!
"Oh Yeah, that was great you guys!" Ash cheered rushing out to his Pokémon.
"Turning a certain defeat around with an unexpected surprise." Said Cilan.
"That's Ash for you." Misty agreed.
"That was a really great battle Ash." May said to her opponent after cheeking on Glaceon.
"Yeah and it was pretty neat that Quilava and Gible evolved at the same time." Said Dawn.
"We couldn't have done it without you guys." Ash replied.
"So what's next?" Dawn asked.
"I think lunch is next I'm staving." Ash answered causing everyone face-fault once again.
The sun had began to fall behind the mountains as the first day of Training was coming to an end. Ash sat on a hillside with Pikachu on his shoulder watching as the sun set. "Can you believe it Pikachu after just one day we've gotten so much stronger." Ash said excited by his teams progress.
"Pipi pika chu pi chu chu!" (We're going to be unbeatable!) Pikachu cheered with confidence.
"That's the spirit buddy." Ash began to think of all the battles that awaited him in the Prism League losing himself in his own thoughts.
"Are you the one?"
Ash eyes widened as he heard the same voice from earlier in the day. Ash looked around but found no trace of anyone else only himself and Pikachu. "Chu chu Pikachu?" (What's wrong Ash?)
"I don't know buddy." Ash replied. "I know I'm not imagining things I heard a voice, but who or what is it?"
So there it is Ash's first day or training. I not going to be doing a chapter for every month Ash is training just a few that show something of importance to Ash preparations for the Prism League.
Please read and review.
