"It sounds like Delia has more children now! I wonder what she named them!?" Grace said to herself.
"I hope we can see them soon! I can't resist myself around little children!" smiled Caroline.
"We'll it's great that Ash is a big brother now. I think we shound turn our attention to how he was able to surround his body in electricity first?!" said Norman.
Everyone stopped think about what Ash's younger siblings could look like and remembered the sight of Ash powering up along with his Pikachu. They were unable to look at anything or anyone else than him! Just what exactly was that power? And what has he been up to for the past few years since they last saw him?
"That was so cool! I've never seen a Ninja, Wizard, or Pirate contral that much power. What else can he do?" asked an eager Max Mapple.
His big sister looked at him and answered his question, "Max, Ash has never had those abilities in the past! None of us knows what he can do with it, or how he got it in the first place! We're all just as confused at you are!"
Max looked surprised as he hasn't seen his sister look so surprised in a long time. Whoever this Ash guy is, he really is someone that can grab attention quickly!
(With the AM Warriors)
"THAT WAS THE COOLEST THING EVER! RIGHT GUYS?!" yelled an excited Monkey D Luffy towards his family.
"Luffy, quit yelling your going to make my ears bleed!" complianed Asuna with holding her ears.
"You've already knocked Natsu out cold because of that." informed thier blonde Ninja as he looked at the pink haired Dragonslayer who's head was laying down on Master Pan's lap while Happy was on the Matser's head enjoying the view of the field.
"Opps! Sorry about that, I guess I got carried away with how awesome Ash and Pikachu's Thunder Armor was!" apoliziged the Pirate in training.
"You should be apologizing to Natsu when he wakes up, and try to start fighting with him once he wakes up cause we don't need more people staring at us than we already have thanks to you!" sighed Asuna.
Everyone was looking in their direction thanks to Luffy's excited screams and were confused and annoyed by the Straw Hat's yelling about the battle. Sure it was something to remember for years to come, but Luffy was really overreacting about things.
The rest of the team turned their heads down to avoid the thousands of eyeballs looking at them, but they could still feel everyone's stares and felt very uncomfortable. The next time they go out with Luffy, they'll be sure to bring a tape to close his mouth.
(With Ash)
After getting the new Poemon tha he'll need for the next fight. Ash returned to the gym in order to continue this event that everyone was waiting for! Once he reentered the gym everyone looked at him and started to cheer for him for just showing up. It turns out the the last battle has really made him popular very quickly we this School.
He told Pikachu and Pichu to stay at the battlefield to rest until he says so, in case things go wrong his battle with Paul.
The two little electric Pokemon ran up towards him and climb up his body until they stopped to rest on his head or shoulder. Ash smiled at the two resting on his Kalos clothes.
"Are you going to smile at them all day or are we going to battle?" asked Paul from his end of the field.
"I say we get started and make it good!" replied Ash with a smile.
"This will be a six on six battle between Ash and Paul. Both trainers are allowed to use six Pokemon each. Substitutions are allowed. The battle will be over when all of one trainer's Pokemon are unable to continue!" called out the referee.
"Let's get this over with!" said Paul.
"Come on, try to sound excited. I've been itching for another fight since the last one ended!" smiled Ash.
"That was five minutes ago." grumbled Paul.
"I know. That's why it was a painful wait!" Ash replied.
Paul just couldn't believe that Gary lost to someone who is this excited for battle. It seems like Ash's energy never ends! And speaking of energy he was a bit concerned about the kind of energy that Ash put out during during the climax his battle with Gary. He now knew that he picked a fight with a strong guy and was a bit scared, but he was trying his hardest not to show it. He needed to finish this quick so that the last battle's outcome wouldn't repeat here!
"Aggron, Stand by for battle."
"Infernape, I choose you."
The giant armor Pokemon appeared on the left side of the field while he faced off against the fire monkey on the right side across from him. Paul remembered how Infernape had beaten Electivire during their battle at Central Park and was surprised to see just how strong that little Chimchar that he once owned had come. He was going to need to take this battle very seriously if he wanted to win!
"Battle begin!" called the referee.
"Use Metal Sound."
Aggron started to quickly vibrate his two horns until a high pitched sound was soon heard on the battlefield. It caused Infernape to cover his ears due to how strong it was as it started to lower his Special Defense.
"Hang in there, Infernape! Use Dig." ordered Ash.
Infernape started to dig his way under the ground to attack from below and avoid the sound. He disappeared from the field and was starting to dig his way around from underneath.
"Use Iron Defense."
Aggron started to glow with an outline of blue which helped raise his defense greatly. When Infernape hits him when he comes out, it will backfire on him and Ash!
"Use Flare Blitz while underground."
"What!"
The battlefield began to get hotter and hotter until it started to glow red and steamy before finally erupting in a powerful blast of fire like a volcano! Poor Aggron was screaming in pain due to how hot the attack was on him since he had the type disadvantage. The blast rocketed up high until it stopped somewhere about seven meters from the ceiling. Ash had told Infernape before hand not to use a full powered underground Flare Blitz since the battle was taking place indoors. When the explosion stopped the fire lowered down slowly until all that was left was the steaming hot battlefield with an Aggron that had metal hot skin!
Infernape jumped out of the hole he created to look at the heavily damaged Aggron that was on his knees and hands for support to keep his body up. That first attack was definitely a strong one and an amazing way to kick off this awesome battle!
"Use Flash Cannon."
"Use Flame Wheel to counter it."
Aggron opened his mouth up wide and fired a powerful white beam of energy at Infernape with all the strenght that he had. While the fire type started to let fire leak out from his mouth, he then started to roll towards Aggron's Flash Cannon while the flames started to surround his body and turn into a wheel.
"Use Flamethrower to do a countersheild." called Ash.
Strems of fire started to come out of the fire wheel and started to hit the Flash Cannon, they prevented the beam of light from hitting Infernape's Flame Wheel and stopping him from rolling forward.
"What kind of move is that!" shouted Paul in disbelif. He had never seen a move like that before in his life.
The strems of fire continued to protect Infernape as he continued to use Flame Wheel to push back the Flash Cannon attack. Finally, he surpassed the beam and hit Aggron head on with Flame Wheel dealing more damage than before and with it being a fire attack it was enough to knock him out!
"Aggron is unable to battle! Infernape wins!" called the referee.
Everyone in the audience started to cheer at how awesome the battle played out. What made them even more excited that the fact that this was just the first battle and there were still more Pokemon that needed to fight!
Pual returned Aggron to his Pokeball with a disappointed look. He never expected Ash to use Infernape in such a created way to overcome Aggroon. He knew clearly well that if Aggron wasn't a steel type, he still would have lost!
"It seems that I've underestimated you, Ash." said Paul as he took out another Pokeball, "I won't make that mistake again!"
"Let's hope you don't, cause I really want this fight to be evenly matched!" Ash smiled.
Paul was a bit annoyed that Ash was smiling, it made him feel like this was some kind of game instead of a serious fight. He'll need to knock some sense back into Ash's skull when he wins!
"Usaring, Stand by for battle."
"Infernape, Return."
Ash called back Infernape so that he could rest for a little while and have his other Pokemon get a shot at fighting.
"Heracross, I choose you!" called out Ash.
From Paul's Pokeball came a large bear with a yellow circle on his belly and that looked fearsome and powerful. While Ash's Pokeball released a giant bug type with a large horn that looked like it could pack a punch!
"Ursaring, use Bulk Up." ordered Paul.
"RAAAAAAAGGG!" screamed Ursaring as he was then covered in red aura that started to raise the power of his attacks and defense.
Ash was a bit worried since Bulk Up was going to be a challenge to overcome, but he just needed to have a littile bit of faith in his Pokemon and things should turn out OK.
"Heracross, Use Focus Punch." he called out.
Heracross started to make his left arm glow white for a bit before using his wings to fly quickly at Ursaring. Paul didn't tell him to dodge or attack, so that could only mean that he was as up to something to catch Ash off guard.
'Looks like I'll need to be careful if I want to win this thing!' he thought carefully.
"Use Hyper Beam."
Ursaring opened his mouth up and started to charge up a blast of orange energy to fire at Heracross. With the bug Pokemon getting closer it was an easy shot as he fired it and Heracross was hit by the attack and launched backwards from the impact.
"Use Focus Blast."
Ursaring brought his hands together and started to create a small white sphere of aura that started to glow bigger and bigger every second. Once it was about the size of a beachball he tossed it at the bug type as hard as he could.
"Use Horn Attack." called out Ash.
Heracross started to make his horn glow white and then used his wings to fly and charge towards the incoming white sphere with his glowing white horn to attack it. Once the two were about five meters apart, Ash gave the next command.
"Hyper Beam."
Heracross fired a orange beam of aura from his horn when he was about one meter from the Focus Blast from hitting him. Thanks to using Horn Attack beforehand his Hyper Beam was stronger than usual and was able to overpower the Focus Blast and hit Ursaring afterwards as well.
"Get up and use Hammer Arm." said Paul.
Ursaring started to get up from the ground and made his right arm glow white. He then started to rush towards Heracross as fast as he could to punch him. The bug type was calm as he trusted Ash to get him out of danger.
"Use Leer."
Heracross closed his eyes for a moment before opening them and revealing glowing red eyes. He stared at Ursaring with them and that cause the bear Pokemon's defense to lower.
"Use Focus Punch."
Heracross made his left arm glow white again and began to fly towards Ursaring who was still coming with Hammer Arm. The two Pokemon met in the middle of the battlefield and collided their fist with each other!
"Hyper Beam. What!" called out both trainers. The two of them didn't expect to call out the same move at the same time.
Both Pokemon fired the attack from their mouth/horn and with the point blank range that was between them, an explosion occurred and covered the field in dust. When it cleared the result of the battle was shown to everyone.
"Both Pokemon are unable to battle. This match is a tie!" called out the referee.
"Heracross, Return. Thanks for all of your hard work!" smiled Ash.
Paul on the other hand just returned Ursaring with out saying a word. He wasn't too pleased with the result of the match, but he now knows just how to beat Ash so it wasn't a complete loss.
"OK Ash, I'll admit that your stronger than I expected. Far more strong when you and Pikachu powered up to your full strenght. But I got a few surprises of my own waiting for you!" Paul warned our protagonist.
"Then stop hiding them and show me!" asked Ash.
"You asked for it! Nidoking, Stand by for battle."
Paul revaeled his mighty Nidoking, and mighty was the right word to use for how strong it looked. The male poison type of Kanto looked more dangerous than his female counterpart and was ready to fight hard!
'I'll need to be on my guard big time if I hope to get that beast out of the way soon!' Ash though to himself.
"Infernape, come back out."
Infernape reappeared on the battlefield and was good to go. He needed to show Paul that he wasn't the same weak little Chimchar that he once was and now was the perfect battle to do so!
"Use Flamethrower."
"Counter it with Thunderbolt."
Infernape opened his mouth and started to charge up a powerful fire attack while Nidoking's body was being surrounded by electricity to attack Infernape with. When both attacks were ready the two Pokemon fired them at each other and the attacks collided in a beam struggle as one worked to surpass the other. The beams kept on fighting until they both exploded and covered the field in smoke. That smoke was just the distraction that Paul needed!
"Use Horn Attack."
Nidoking started to make his horn glow white and began to charge into the smoke to find Infernape so that he could hit him
"Use Dig."
Infernape wasted no time and started to dig with his arms as fast as he could and soon disappeared underground. This proved to be a challenge for both Paul and Nidoking as the smoke prevented them from seeing Infernape before, but now with him underground it only got more difficult.
When the smoke finally cleared the ground underneath Nidoking started to rumble and break, which could only mean one thing!
"Nidoking! Get out of there!" shouted Paul.
However it was too late! Infernape came out and delivered an uppercut to the posion type's jaw which sent him three feet off of the ground and onto his back.
"Use Flamethrower." ordered Ash.
Infernape blasted a strem of fire from his mouth at Nidoking so quickly that the poor thing didn't have time to dodge, not even Paul could tell him to do so in time. It was a powerful Flamethrower, but soon stopped after five seconds.
"Nice work, Infernape! Return for now." said Ash as he called back his fire type to it's Pokeball.
"Why did you call him back?" asked Paul.
"He still needs to rest for later. I need him for your tougher Pokemon!" answered Ash.
"Well you are strong I'll give you that, but my plan is already set up!" smiled Paul.
"What plan?"
"It's simple. I just let you win the first two rounds!"
"Wait, you let me win?!" asked Ash in shock.
"Right. You see I pur-"
"Purposely let me beat Aggron and Ursaring in order to figure out my battling style and catch me off guard when you take out Nidoking and use him at full power, right?" smiled Ash.
Paul was shocked that Ash had figured out his plan from the beginning. He was sure that he wouldn't be able to figure it out, but was now proven wrong!
"How did you know my plan!" he shouted.
"I've been a trainer for years just like you. When we battled at Central Park, I got to understand you and learn how you battle and think of your Pokemon. Plus, other trainers have used that strategy on me before, so I know when someone is going to use it on me!" Ash explained.
'Damn it! Now I can't catch him off guard!' thought Paul.
"Trust me, Paul. It's going to take more than smarts to beat me!" claimed Ash.
"Sceptile, I choose you!"
Ash realeased his Sceptile to have him take a turn at fight in today's battles. While everyone thought that it was crazy that Ash was sending out Sceptile since he's at a disadvantage, Ash always has a trick up his sleeve in order to make the unlikely more likely!
"Use Posion Sting"
Nidoking got up and started to fire purple darts from his mouth at Sceptile, but the Hoenn grass starter proved too fast and was avoiding them with little effert at all.
"Use Spinning Leaf Blade." called out Ash.
"What!" shouted Paul.
Sceptile got in closer to Nidoking and started to spin around in a circle until his arms started to glow green. He took on the appearance of a green top and started to attack when he was close enough to touch Nidoking with his glowing arms. The fast paced grass arms started to deliver more damage than a grass type should do to a poison type and Nidoking was having a painful time taking that attack.
He was able to step back a bit while Sceptile stopped the spinning and tried his hardest to find his footing after the merry go round attack he used.
"Use Posion Tail. And you better make it counter!" sneered Paul.
He was getting very frustrated at the fact that Nidoking was struggling against a graas type. If he losses then he'll have to have a talk with him later!
Nidoking started to make his whole tail glow purple with posion and swung it at Sceptile, who was still dizzy from the spinning he took eariler. Because of that he was hit in the jaw by the purple glowing tail and was knocked on his back.
"Sceptile!" called out Ash in concern.
Said Pokemon was about to get up, but screamed in pain when his body turned purple with a few acid bubbles. Sceptle had been posioned from that Posion Tail!
"Oh no! Not good!" Ash growled in frustration. If Sceptile was posioned, then he would have to find another way to attack Nidoking without using him.
"Return, Sceptile. I'll handle the rest while you relex for a bit." Ash said as his grass starter from Hoenn disappeared into it's Pokeball.
"Ha! It looks like he didn't do his part as you wanted him to. Pathetic if you ask me." laughed Paul.
"I say he did do his part well. He dealt more damage than a grass type should to a posion type. Your just jealous, that's all." Ash burned.
"Why would I be jealous of someone like you?!" snapped Paul.
"I'm stronger than you as both a trainer and fighter as well. Not to mention that fact that I have Electrokineses while you don't!"
"I don't care what it was that you did during your fight with Mr. Loudmouth. I'm the strongest trainer in this whole School!" growled Paul. Ash was really getting under his skin right now!
"That's old news, and just like you it's about to change! Staraptor, I choose you!" called out Ash.
"Staraptorrrr!" called out the bird Pokemon from Sinnoh. It was a mighty looking flying and was ready for a fight!
"Use Thunderbolt and knock it right out of the sky!" ordered Paul.
Nidoking started to surround his body with electricity again and fired it at Staraptor with his full power.
"Use Quick attack to dodge." said Ash.
Staraptor surrounded his body with white aura that gave him a bosst in speed and zoomed out of the way of the strem of lightning, completely avoiding the attack with ease! Staraptor was one of Ash's fastest Pokemon and avoiding long range attacks is his specialty. It doesn't matter how strong the attack is, cause if it can't hit this target then it's useless. He smashed his body right into Nidoking's stomach as hard as he could and landed a good hit, but Paul wasn't going to let him off the hook that easily!
"Grab him and use Posion Sting." he said.
Nidoking grabbed on to Staraptor when the second Paul told him to and lifted the bird Pokemon up so that they could see eye to eye, he then opened his mouth and fired purple darts of posion at Staraptor to inflict damage to him.
"Sucker Punch."
Nidoking let go of Staraptor with his right hand and made a fist, he then punched Staraptor in the stomach which sent the bird Pokemon falling backwards towards Ash.
"Staraptor! No!" he called out.
Staraptor then turned purple for a brief second to show that he was posioned. Now both Staraptor and Sceptile were posioned and that will cause them to suffer pain while fighting!
"Return for now, Staraptor." said Ash as he recalled him to his Pokeball.
'I need to find a way to take out that Nidoking and fast before things get more difficulty than they already are!' he thought to himself.
Ash was under a lot of pressure from how thing were turning out. While it my be true that he has five Pokemon and Paul has four, two of his Pokemon were posioned at are going to get hurt if they keep fighting for too long!
"You look scared. Are you chickening out in the middle of out battle, pathetic!" laughed Paul.
Ash took a deep breath to calm down and relex before thinking of a plan to counter attack, "Pikachu, I choose you!"
"PIKA!" called out his best friend as he jumped from his shoulder onto the battlefield for the second time today.
"Your using you Pikachu again?!" asked Paul.
"Pikachu barely took any damage from his battle with Gary, so he can still fight. Besides, I'm not going against any rules if I use a Pokemon that I used in a previous battle that can still fight, am I?" he asked while turned his head to the referee.
"No, your not." replied he replied.
"Then it's OK for me to use him here again. Unless your chickening out after seeing how strong he and I can both be together!" smirked Ash.
"If you think I'm a corwad then maybe I should crush that Pikachu of yours and see how you'll feel when he's dead!" Paul threatened.
Many people in the audience were surprisedby Paul's threat. Whould he really hurt another trainer's Pokemon that badly in order to win?! Everyone knew he was a crual person, but this was a help too overboard!
"HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA. That's really funny, ya know!" Ash laughed as a responses
"What is?' asked his opponent.
"That you can crush Pikachu with how slow your Pokemon are. It takes more then power to win a fight, and we'll show you! Use Agility."
"Pika!" said his partner as he started dashing forward. Pikachu's impressive speed made it hard for both Paul and Nidoking to to look at him while he moves, cause all they could see was a yellow blur moving quckly around the field. Pikachu was too fast for him to attack because he'll just hit where he would be a few seconds too late.
"Use both Posion Tail and Sucker Punch repeatedly until you hit him."
Nidoking made his tail glow purple and closed his fist. When Pikachu was about to run past his right leg, he swung his tail in that direction. But the mouse Pokemon jumped over it quickly. Next was direct punch to the ground, but Pikachu made a sharp turn to the right to avoid that as well. About two minutes have past and Nidoking was punching and smacking the air and ground to hit Pikachu, but had no luck so far. Paul had never seen any land Pokemon move that fast before, he never thought speed like that was possible since he always depended more on his Pokemon's attack power. Pikachu's speed was beyond that of reaction time!
"Use Thunderbolt." said Ash.
Pikachu stopped in front of Nidoking and fired a beam of electricity at him with his full power. It was strong and fast, too fast for him to react to and for Paul to give an order. Nidoking cried out in pain as he was struck by a powerful electric attack that put his to shame. He them dropped to the ground in defeat, showing just how strong the attack was!
"Nidoking is unable to battle. Pikachu wins!" called out the referee.
Everyone cheered at how Pikachu claimed victory by using his incredible speed to avoid blows and strike while the Kanto posion type tried to attack but was too slow. Paul returned Nidoking with a disapointed look, he wasn't pleased with Nidoking lossing to a Pikachu and will deal with him later!
"Drapion, Stand by for battle." he called out.
A giant purple scorpion Pokemon appeared on the battlefield with his pincers hard snapping in order to intimidate Pikachu. He wasn't scared at all, but Ash decided that it was best at he catches a break while he still can so that he'll have strenght for later.
"Return, Pikachu."
Said Pokemon came back and climbed up until he was back on Ash's shoulder again.
"I don't want you getting posioned like Sceptile and Staraptor. So I'll leave this to Donphan, OK?" he said.
"Pika pi." nodded Pikachu.
"Donphan, I choose you."
Donphan appeared on the battlefield in order to fight for his trainer. Ash know that with Donphan the posion from Drapion won't be as effective.
"Drapion, use Pin Missile."
Drapion opened his mouth and fired white strems of pins at Donphan from a distance in order to avoid getting too close.
"Use Rollout."
Donphan started to run up towards Drapion while the white pins were coming at him, but he started to curl up and roll the rest of the way in order to avoid having the pins damage him. Once they made contect, they just bounced off of him thanks to his hard back. He was able to hit Drapion and land the first hit, but that's what Paul wanted!
"Grab Donphan." he said.
Drapion used his pincers to grab Donphan and lifted him up until the two of them met eye to eye. It was there that Paul give the next order.
"Use Posion Fang"
Drapion's fangs began to glow purple with posion and used them to bite Donphan as hard as he could. Donphan was in great pain as he felt his body getting weaker thanks to the posion. Ash knew that he had to do something soon or else Donphan was going to get more hurt!
"What now, Ash?" smiled Paul.
"Hyper Beam."
"Huh?"
Donphan opened his mouth and blasted and orange beam of aura at Drapion's face. It was powerful and didn't have a small impact at all since it was point blank range. An explosion is what followed and it launched Donphan out of Drapion's grip and he crashed in front of Ash!
"Donphan! Speak to me, are you OK?!" asked our favorite trainer.
Donphan looked at Ash and slowly got up from the ground to give him a nod and calm his worries. but he then turned purple and yelled in pain. He too got posioned!
'Not Donphan too! Now I got three posioned Pokemon!' Ash paniced in his head.
"Use Cross Posion."
Drapion folded his arms in an X formation and fired an X shape blast of poison at Donphan. Ash saw it and hoped that his next move would work!
"Use Defense Curl."
Donphan tucked hin his head and limbs and let his back exposed to the attack. When it hit, it turned out that it didn't have an effect and Donphan was fine, for now.
"Use Earthquake."
Donphan lifted his two front legs and then stomped them on the battlefield. What followed was the impact making the ground underneath him and Drapion shake violently in order to deal more damage at the posion type. The shaking was making Drapion feel bad as he took damage from the attack and with him being a poison type it was super effective.
"Nice work, Donphan." said Ash.
Donphan smiled at his trainer, but it was soon taken away when he felt the posion move through out his body.
"Use Toxic Spikes."
Drapion opened his mouth and launched a purple orb of posion into the air. The orb then exploded and seperated into multiple orbs that landed on the battlefield and sunk into it afterwards.
'Great! Now those Toxic Spikes are going to posion all of my Pokemon!' Ash thought.
Donphan screamed as more posion started to hurt him thanks to those Toxic Spikes. Ash knew that if he didn't think of something and fast, he'll lose this fight and put himself in a tight spot.
"Use Rollout." he ordered.
Donphan started to run up to Drapion as fast as he could before rolling into a round shape and heading towards him as a much faster rate.
"Pathetic. Cross Posion." said Paul.
Drapion crossed his arms and created another posion blast in the shape of an X. He fired it at Donphan who was coming faster then before.
"Dodge it, then use Earthquake."
Donphan was able to avoid the Cross Posion by rolling to left as it flew past him, before stopping about three meter in front of the posion type. Donphan then lifted his two front legs and smashed them onto the ground which caused it to shake violently like it did earlier.
Drapion was feeling the effects of the shaking very closely since Donphan was right in front of him this time, it was far too much more then he could handle and dropped down to the ground. But surprisingly, he didn't faint from the attack even though he was struggling in pain.
Donphan on the other hand was feeling the posion run through his body as he turned purple once more!
Ash knew that his Pokemon needed a rest, but what he really needed was encouragement.
"Donphan, I want you to listen to me! No matter what the out come of this battle is, just know that I'm proud of you for trying your hardest!" he smiled.
Donphan looked at Ash with a smile as he know that he was lucky to have a trainer that cared for him when he hatched from his egg years ago. He felt sorry for Paul's Pokemon, as they had to deal with him always wanting power and can never be satisfied with what they do for him.
"Pathetic, just how can he think encouraging him will help him win? Let's end this Drapion." said Paul.
Drapion tried his best to push his upper body up from the ground, but he was too tired and couldn't find the strenght to do so, thous he fainted.
Right before the referee could call out Donphan's victory, the ground type Pokemon turned purple and screamed in pain due to the posion. He just couldn't take it anymore and ended up fainting along with Drapion.
"Both Pokemon are unable to battle! This match is a tie." said the referee.
Now that the two fainted, Ash was now down to four Pokemon while Paul was at two. However just by looking at Paul, Ash told that his next Pokemon was really going to be the turning point of this battle!
After the two of them returned their fallen Pokemon, Paul called out his next fighter.
"Magmortor, Stand by for battle." he called out.
Out from the Pokeball came a large fire type with two cannons for arms and a round body. He was yellow, orange, and red, all of the colours to represent heat and warmth.
"Staraptor, I choose you."
Staraptor came out of his Pokeball and was flying through the air above the battlefield to avoid the Toxic Spikes. He was already posioned so Ash couldn't risk him getting even more posioned than he already is!
"Use Flamethrower."
Magmortor aimed his arm cannons at Staraptor and fired a strem of fire at the Sinnoh flying type as fast as he could. Staraptor was able to dodge without much trouble and rocketed towards him as fast as he could.
"Use Close Combat."
Staraptor started to punch and kick Magmortor in the chest as fast as he could to deliver a lot of damage and make this first attack count. Magmartor painfully took the attack and backed up a bit after Staraptor was done.
"Use Rock Tomb."
"What! Rock Tomb!?" shouted Ash.
Aiming his arm cannons at Staraptor, Magmartor fired gray stones at the bird Pokemon and hit him about five times. The posion from earlier was stopping Staraptor from dodging the rocks in time. But, once he landed on his back the Toxic Spikes effected him as well and posioned him farther!
"Staraptor! Do you need a break?!" asked his trainer.
"Star!" the bird Pokemon shoke his head to tell his trainer that he was fine and could keep going.
"Use Quick Attack and move around as fast as you can!" ordered Ash.
Staraptor started to surround his body in white aura and began to fly like crazy by zooming around the battlefield to avoid Magmartor's attacks. He was zipping from the right to the left, up to down, left to right, etc.
"Use Smog."
Magmartor started to blow black smoke from his mouth around the battlefield and created a smoke cloud to avoid having Staraptor see him.
"Use Gust."
Staraptor began flapping his wings as fast as he could in order to make wind to blow away the smoke, when it cleared it showed Magmartor aiming his cannon arms at him!
"Flamethrower."
"Use Quick Attack to dodge it."
Strems of fire came from both of Magmartor's arm cannon's and were heading towards Staraptor, but he dodged them with Quick Attack easily. He then headed towards Magmartor's chest just like before to finish the job!
"Use Wing Attack."
Staraptor's wings started to glow white and became stronger, when he hit Magmartor he landed a clean hit on his chest like he did earlier.
However once he backed up away from the fire Pokemon, he felt the posion from his fight with Nidoking return made him yell in pain.
"End it with Rock Tomb." said Paul.
Magmartor fired two stones from his left arm cannon and hit Staraptor with them. The move was super effective and too much for Staraptor to handle. He fell on his back and fainted.
"Staraptor is unable to battle! Magmartor is the winner." said the referee.
"Return, Staraptor. Thanks for your hard work." Ash smiled as he returned Staraptor to his Pokeball and started to think about who he should choose next?
'I can't use Pikachu because I'll get him posioned by the Toxic Spikes, plus I'll need him for later. Secptile is already posioned and I can't risk hurting him any further, Infernape is my only option left, but he'll get posioned too!' Ash kept thinking about what he was suppose to do to win this fight.
"I think I got it now!" he said.
"Infernape, I choose you."
Infernape reappeared onto the battlefield ready for another round, but he then turned purple for a brief moment and grinned his teeth in pain. He was now posioned just like the rest of Ash's remaining Pokemon, excluding Pikachu.
"Infernape, let's get rid of these Toxic Spikes! Use Dig." smiled Ash.
Infernape used his hands to dig into the battlefield and disappeared like he did in earlier battles today. Many people wondered what Ash could be up to this time?
"Infernape is just going to get closer to the Toxic Spikes. Your pathetic if your trying to loss by putting him in more danger!" smirked Paul.
"I think you forgot what happened at the begining of this battle, did you?!" Ash smiled.
Paul looked at him with a confused look, but it soon started to morph into a look of realization. But it was already too late!
"Flare Blitz."
The field started to get hotter and hotter until the ground started to shake and glow red like it did during the battle with Aggron!
"OH NO! Not this again!" shouted Paul.
A second later the field erupted in a blazing inferno of fire that rocketed up from the ground, but like before it didn't hit the ceiling because it wasn't Infernape's full power. The purple Toxic Spikes started to come out from the ground and started to burn away at the heat of the fire. After all of the posion was gone, the fire disappeared which resulted in a steaming hot battlefield.
"Mach Punch."
The ground underneath Magmartor started to crack until Infernape popped out and gave him a glowing white uppercut to the chin. The impact caused Magmartor to fall onto his back and faint.
"Magmartor is unable to battle! Infernape wins."
"Yeah! Nice work out there Infernape!" smiled Ash.
Paul returned Magmartor with a frown on his face, but to be honest he never smiles unless he's making fun of someone or is win. He was down to his last Pokemon while Ash had three left, but he know that his next one was going to win the whole thing.
"I hope your ready, Ash, cause this guy is ready for some revenge!" he said as he tossed his final Pokeball onto the battlefield.
His trump card was none other than his Electivire. The same one from their battle at Centrel Park! Ash knew that Electivire was one of Paul's strongest, but if he plays it right he could win this!
"Infernape, I want you to return for now. We'll finish it off later, OK?" asked Ash.
"Nape!" replied the monkey Pokemon as he then returned to his Pokeball for rest.
"OK, I know you can do it! Sceptile, I choose you!" called out Ash.
Sceptile reappeared on the battlefield ready to fight, even if he was still a little bit posioned he wasn't going to stop until he makes this battle count.
Paul that he was at a disadvantage with Sceptile as his opponent, but he needed to win and keep his title as strongest trainer in the School! He hoped that Electivire could pull through.
"Use Thunder."
Electivire covered his body in electricity and fired the blast at Sceptile as hard as he could.
"Use Agility to dodge it." said Ash.
Sceptile was running as fast as he could to avoid the electric attack. He dashed towards the left to avoid getting hit. He moved in closer until Ash saw that he was close enough for the next attack.
"Bullet Seed."
Sceptile opened his mouth and started to fired tiny yellow seed at Electivire at high speed, they were so fast that Paul couldn't call out an order to have Electivire stop them and he ended up getting hit.
"Use Brick Break."
Electivire lifted his right arm and brought it down to karate chop Sceptile. He was too close to avoid it and was hit on the head with the attack, and if that wasn't bad enough, the posion from earlier battles returned to make him grin in pain.
"Use Giga Impact."
Eletivire started to make purple arua with yellow streaks surround his body and quickly dashed towards Sceptile. He slammed into him with full force and knocked him back a bit from the impact.
"Sceptile, can you still fight?" asked Ash.
Before the grass type could answer the question, the posion returned and made him scream in pain. It proved too much for him and he fainted!
"Sceptile is unable to battle! The winner is Electivire."
Ash signed at Sceptile's defeat, but smiled knowing that he managed to get a good hit before going out. He returned him to his Pokeball and thanked him for all of his hard work.
"Well, it looks like it's come down to this!" he said as he looked down at Infernape's Pokeball.
'This is it! It's your chance to prove to him that he was wrong. Show him what your made of!' he thought while looking down at the Pokeball.
"Infernape, I choose you!" he called out.
Infernape appeared on the battlefield and was ready to fight once again! However, when he saw that his opponent this time was going to be Electivire, he got really excited and was going to give it his all to show him and Paul just how much he has grown over the years!
'Time to see who will be the last Pokemon standing!' they both thought at the same time. Even through Ash still had Pikachu, it wasn't going to be that big of a battle since Infernape is going to deal enough damage that would make it a breeze for Pikachu to battle.
"Electivire, use Brick Break." said Paul.
Electivire made his hand glow white and started to run up to Infernape in order to karate chop him. But he wasn't exactly the fastest of Paul's Pokemon and Ash knew what to do.
"Step to the side to dodge." he ordered.
Infernape sled his right left behind his left one and waited for his opponent to get closer, when Electivire was about a meter away from him, he turned to the right as his body moved in that direction as well. Electivire ended up hitting thin air as Infernape dodged the attack with such little effort!
"What!" said Paul. He had never seen a dodge like that before in his life!
Infernape was perfectly calm as he and Ash practice this side stepping move many times during combat training. Ash knew it was time to use a battling style that he was sure Paul was unfamiliar with.
"Use Thunder Punch."
Electivire covered his left fist with electricity and threw it at Infernape, but that didn't quite work how he wanted it to.
"Use Mach Punch and preform a Yamazuki."
Infernape made both of his fist glow white and threw his left arm at the incoming Thunder Punch. The white and electric fist both passed each other, the Mach Punch passed Electivire's right cheek, while the Thunder Punch passed Infernape's left cheek. But Electivire felt a powerful impact in his stomach that caused him great pain! He looked down to see that Infernape's right fist had hit his stomach!
"What! What kind of move is that?!" asked Paul in shock.
"A little something that we've train a long time to perfect." replied Ash.
Everyone in the audience was shocked to see that Infernape preformed a double punch in two different locations of the body like that! There were very few in the people in the crowd that knew what that move was!
"Thunder."
Electivire fought through the pain and covered his body in yellow electricity to shock his opponent. It worked since Infernape was too close to dodge the attack!
"Use Thunder Punch."
The Sinnoh electric type covered his right fist in electricity and threw that face at Infernape's face.
"Do a Kouho Haiho." ordered Ash.
Infernape stepped his right foot forward and put all of his body weight onto it, which left his left legs with less weight. He them waited until the last second for the Thunder Punch to come before turning his body to the side as the Thunder Punch miss and flew pass his face. He then used his right hand to karate chop Electivire in the chest and send him down to the ground on his back.
"What!" called out Paul.
'I knew it! Paul only cares about power and trains his Pokemon to be more powerful in the attack category, he dosen't think about anything else. Meaning we can beat him if we use more than just brute strenght!' thought Ash.
"Use Dig."
Infernape started to dig underground as fast as he could to land the attack before his opponent could get up.
"Electivire, get up and away from that spot!" said Paul.
It was unfortunately too late, Infernape came out and thrusted his fist in Electivire's back. Lifting the electric type off the battlefield about two feet before he crashed down on his back again.
"Get up and use Thunder on the battlefield." said Paul.
Infernape came out of the hole he made just in time to avoid the attack. Electivire rolled over and stuck his two tails into the field, he then electrocuted the field which cause stones to fly up into the air from the blast of power.
"Use Flamethrower and aim for the stones heading towards you." said Ash.
Infernape lifted his head and blasted fire from his mouth at the rocks coming his way. The heat was hot enough to melt them into magma as they dropped to the ground, while the others that weren't caught in the fire landed on the field.
"Thunder."
Electivire charged up more power and blasted electricity at Infernape as hard as he could, but the fire type just turned his attack towards the on coming blast of electricity and the two attacks met. The two attacks started to push each other with full strenght as hard as they could! First it looked like the Thunder attack was winning as it was pushing the Flamethrower, but it was then pushed by the the Flamethrower until the two were even again. After about a minutes, the two attacks caused an explosion that covered the field in smoke!
"Flamethrower at the ground." called out Ash.
Infernape came flying out of the smoke cloud with his face downwards as he fired Flamethrower from his mouth to send himself off of the ground.
The smoke soon cleared and both Paul and Electivire were looking up to see Infernape in the air.
"Use Thunder."
Electivire shoot a blast of electricity at Infernape as he was coming down from the height he was at. But Ash knew what he and his fire fighting partner needed to do!
"Flare Blitz, go!"
Fire started to cover Infernape's body as it took on the form of the sphere and then turned blue, meaning that it was at a higher temperature than before. The blue flames started to get hotter until Ash needed to remove Pichu and his hat from his head to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
Infernape and the Thunder attack collieded together and started to push each other with as much force as they could. The Flare Blitz attack kept Infernape from taking damage from the attack, but he will suffer from recoil damage once his attack ends.
The two kept on pushing against each other in order to push the other back. Infernape was the one who started to do so as he pushed the beam of electricity back with Flare Blitz, which allowed him to get closer to his opponent. He kept on pushing until he completely overthrow the Thunder attack and slammed into Electivire with his flaming hot body and pushed him towards the ground.
"Blaze Kick."
Infernape stopped using Flare Blitz and felt the damage that he knew he would receive. After brushing it off he leaped into the air and started to preform aerial front flips until his stopped and brought his right leg down with it on fire and delivered a powerful axe kick to Electivire's face!
The electric Pokemon was in great pain from this battle. He didn't know that Infernape could become this strong in such a short amount of time since they last saw each other. He must have trained very hard to get these results.
Paul on the other hand was not happy at all. How could the same weak little Chimchar that he left be this strong?! He never got those kind results, and what are the moves that Ash is telling him to do?
'If I don't end it now, I'll lose for sure!' he thought.
"Electivire, get up right now!" he ordered.
Ash was starting to get more and more cross with how Paul talks to his Pokemon with such disrespect, "That no way to talk to your Pokemon when they're trying thier hardest for you!"
"This doesn't concern you, Ash Ketchum!" replied Paul.
"You know something that didn't need your concern? Helping Gary get revenge for something that wasn't my fault!" Ash said.
Tension was rising in the gym as everyone could see the look in the eyes of the two trainers battling it out. Many could knew why one must be upset with his opponent, Ash didn't like the way Paul treated and talked to his Pokemon, and Paul was upset that he was losing to someone who he thought poorly of. Not to meantion the fact that's to a Pokemon that he once thought was weak and abandoned for a stronger replacement.
The AM Warriors could see the look one Ash's face was full of angry and fury. Master Pan could understand as he too disagrees with Paul's behaviour towards his Pokemon. The relationship was more of a slave and master than trainer and Pokemon.
"Excatly how many painful words to you need to say not only to your Pokemon, but to other people until you get your way?" growled Ash.
"How I train my Pokemon is none of your business!" snapped Paul. Ash was really starting to hit some nerves.
"I'm not just talking about your Pokemon. I'm talking about how you like to hurt others with your words and my them feel bad about themselves. Just what in the world gives you the right do to all that? What do you gain out of making others feel bad about themselves?!" Ash said with angry.
The two of them were getting really heated by looking at each other's eyes with anger, but Ash knew that he needed to end this battle and show Paul that there are other his age that are stronger and can have good heart.
"Your one of the people in this way that I don't like, but we can still have fun by finishing this battle. Want to end this?!" Ash smiled.
"Fine by me! Use Giga Impact."
Electivire started to cover his body with a purple aura that had yellow streaks surrounding it and started to charge at Infernape.
"Use Dig."
Infernape started to use his hands to dig under the battlefield again like before and disappeared. Electivire ran past the hole and missed his target, but Paul had another idea!
"Use Thunder on the battlefield." he said.
Electivire stuck his to voltage tails into the battlefield and started to charge up electricity, once he finished he blasted it into the ground and the impact shoot stones out of the field as well as Infernape along with them. He fell on his back and was hit by rocks as they fell all over his body.
"You can do it, Infernape! Just use Flamethrower." called out Ash.
Infernape got up and blasted a strem of fire from his mouth at Electivire with his full power. But that proved to be pointless.
"Protect."
Electivire held up his hands and created a green dome of energy to shield himself from them flames. It works as the Flamethrower attack hit the shield, but only separated into smaller ones as they pasted the rest of the shield.
"Use Thunder."
Once the flames stopped and the green shield was down, Electivire charged up electricity from around his body and fired it in a stream at Infernape. The monkey Pokemon dodged the attack as best as he could by back flipping away from it, then he jumped to the left to avoid another and rolled onto the ground, which gave Ash a great idea!
"Use Mach Punch on the ground, repeatedly."
Infernape made both of his fist glow white and began punch the ground over and over again to create a dust cloud that blocked Electivire's view of him.
"Do it two more times in different locations." ordered Ash.
Infernape ran over to a different location on the battlefield and started to punch it again until another dust cloud was created, then he did it again until three dust cloud were on the battlefield.
"Use Dig."
Infernape started to dig into the ground again while hiding behind a dust cloud in order to avoid being seen. He made in under the battlefield and began his next move!
"You think I'm going to fall for a pathetic trick like that? Use Thunder on the battlefield again!" said Paul.
"I'm afraid that's not happening! Flamethrower." said Ash.
Right when Electivire was about to use his wired tails, a strem of fire came out of the ground and made direct contact with him. He was in great pain as the heat had hit him fast and hard, and it wasn't over for him yet!
"Mach Punch."
Infernape came out from under the field and delivered an upper cut to the face at Electivire, it was a powerful impact them sent the electric type on his back again.
"Use Flame Wheel."
Infernape started to roll and his body was covered in fire. The fire moved into the shape of a wheel and started to roll towards Electivire at high speed.
"Use Protect."
Electivire got up from his back and held his arms out to activate the move. A green dome surrounded him and protected him from the Flame Wheel as it crashed into the dome and was rolling against it to get to the Pokemon inside, but it's efferts were in vain and it bounced back away from Electivire.
Infernape landed on his feet and was panting hard due to how much power he put into that attack, only for it to fail. Paul saw this as an opening to attack!
"Thunder Punch. Now!" he ordered.
Electivire brought his arms and the green shield down and started to cover his right fist with electricity as he dashed towards Infernape.
"Blaze Kick."
Infernape took a deep breath and looked at Electivire coming closer to him. He then waited for him to get close enough until he was ready. Once the electric type swung his fist at his opponent's face, Infernape leaned back and held both of his arms against to ground to keep himself stabile and was in a bridge position. He then lit both of his feet on fire, lifted them up and kicked Electivire in the chest with his flaming fire! The fire type them started to back flip in order to get more distance away from Electivire.
Everyone was cheering loudly at how both Pokemon were engaged in close combat at such a fast pace. Ash's Infernape was fighting on equal terms with Paul's Electivire, which was something that hasn't happend in ages!
Paul on the other hand wasn't enjoy the battle at all! He just couldn't believe that Electivre was struggling against the same little Chimchar that he released and thought was a waste of time for him. How did he get so strong? What kind of training did Ash put him through in order to get these results?
"You've done well, I'll give you that. But you won't in this fight!" he warned.
"I can at least keep trying. That's something that I'll always do until I win or loss trying!" smiled out raven haired protagonist.
Paul just couldn't understand why Ash was smiling in such an heated battle. Most people would be sweating hard and stressed out over hard this battle was playing out, but Ash smiled as he was enjoying it to the fullest?!
"Use Mach Punch repeatedly."
Infernape dashed towards Electivire and started to punch him in the face quickly with his glowing white fist. Infernape was punching as fast as he could with his fist that poor Electivire could do nothing while reciving the barrage of fist to his face.
"Use Thunder Punch."
Eletctivire somehow managed to find strenght to cover his right fist in electricity and send it to Infernape's face. He's head was forced to lean back from the impact he took as Ash called out the next move.
"Blaze Kick."
Infernape lit his left foot on fire and raised it quickly to hit Electivire in the chin which knocked his head up as he leaned back from the impact Infernape gave him.
"Brick Break."
Electivire made his left hand glow white and karate chopped Infernape in the chest, which send the fire Pokemon down to land on his back against the battlefield.
"Thunder."
"Dodge it."
Infernape pushed his hands against the ground and started to back flip in order to avoid the strem of lightning that was following him which was coming from Electivire's body. Infernape them rolled towards left to avoid the beam of electricity.
"Use Fire Punch." said Ash.
Infernape started to light him right fist in fire and started to dash forward with it in order to punch the Sinnoh electric type Pokemon to land another hit in this battle.
"Catch it." ordered Paul.
Electivire used his left tail wire to catch Infernape's arm where there were no flames to harm him. Infernape struggled to get out of the tail, but he couldn't and was a trapped rat in Electivire's grasp!
"Hey Infernape, use Flamethrower." called out Ash.
Infernape opened his mouth and unleashed a jet strem of fire at Electivire's tail. The fire burned Electivire and caused him to release Infernape's arms. Now Infernape decided to continue on and punched Electivire in the face.
"Use Thunder Punch repeatedly." said Paul.
"Use Mach Punch repeatedly." said Ash.
Both Pokemon prepared their fist and started to unleashed them at each other as fast as they could, sending a barrage of punches at one another. Infernape's Mach Punches were against Electivire's Thunder Punches to see which one was the superior boxer! Everyone began to cheer even louder then before as the two Pokemon engaged in a fist fight that made the previous fist fight between Charizard and Blastoise look inferior to the one that they are now witnessing!
Infernape gave Electivire an uppercut the made the electric type's head lean back from the force of the impact. His respone was a downward fist that made the fire Pokemon lower his head. Electivire then went for his own uppercut, but Infernape leaned to the left to avoid it before driving his right fist into Electivire's gut. He got his own punch to the gut as well. A Thunder Punch landed on Infernape's right cheek, which his Mach Punch landed on Electivire's right cheek. Infernape threw a left hook and then a right, but he was then hit in the face by a fist covered in lightning. That didn't stop him however as he then aim his right fist towards Electivire's stomach and delivered. The Sinnoh electric type took a few steps back in pain, before using Thunder Punch on Infernape's chest. He then recived an uppercut from the fire fighting Pokemon as he leaned his head back from the force of the punch.
Everyone keep on cheering and cheering at how both Pokemon were giving it their all in this fight. Ash and Paul couldn't took their eyes off of this display of power and strenght as it was a thril to watch and taking your eyes off of it would be a crime you'd regret for life!
The two Pokemon kept on punching, blocking, and dodging away as this fist fight continued on. It was hard to say how much time has pasted since no one bothered to cheek since this fight has everyone's eyes glued to the action!
Both trainers decided that it was time to take a different approach in order to finish this battle, "Flamethrower/Thunder."
The two Pokemon looked at each other and prepared their respective attacks. Fire came from Infernape's mouth, while thunder came from Electivire's body. The two attack met in the middle and caused an explosion that sent the two Pokemon flying back from the impact to their respective trainer.
"Infernape!" called out Ash.
"Get up and finish this!" was Paul's respone.
The two Pokemon struggled to get up from the ground as they were in a lot of pain. The fist fight is to thank for that, but despite the pain that they were feeling they still found the strenght to push themselves back up.
The two Pokemon looked at each other with a fire of determination in their eyes with the drive to win as equal as it could be!
Ash knew that if his next move was careless and not properly thought out it could cost him the fight!
"Just give up already! You won't beat me with your Infernape, since he's still the pathetic Chamchar that I wasted so much time on."
"SHUT UP! Infernape is not pathetic because he works hard to get stronger and is patient for the results to come natrually instead of complainting and not being strong as he want to be. Unlike you, your just too lazy to put in any real effert into training your Pokemon." Ash replied with anger.
"I won't lose to someone with a pathetic Pokemon who couldn't win any battles, even with all the hard work I put him through." Paul shouted back.
"You were too crual and rude to him. Even when he gave it his all, you could not be satisfied because your too scared of losing!" Ash said while still glaring at his opponent.
Everyone could see that the rage of the two trainers was starting to raise up quickly. The more time pasted on, it feel like the anger was also growing as well!
"ALL INFERNAPE WANTS IS TO BEAT YOU AND PROVE TO YOU THAT YOUR WRONG! WRONG ABOUT HIM BEING WEAK AND USELESS!"
Silence fulled the room as Ash's outburst silenced everyone, even Paul! Not once has anyone ever shouted at him like that, not once has anyone given him a challenge in a Pokemon battle in years since he was so strong, not once has anyone ever talked back to him about how he views that strength is the only thing that matters to him!
He grinned his teeth in anger and frustration that this guy just one day comes out of nowhere and thinks he can act like he's stronger than him! When he loss to Ash at Central Park the other day, he knew that Ash was going to be a thron in his side today. But he never thought it would go to this extend!
"Let's end this! Thunder Punch."
Electivire closed his right fist and started to cover it with more electricity in his hand to finish the fight and end this battle!
Ash and Infernape looked at each other and before Ash nodded, which meant that it was time to pull off the surprised move that the two of them have been practicing for this fight!
"Fire Punch."
Infernape lit his right fist on fire and let the flames get to a high enough tempeture in order to make it more effective.
(My Hero Academia: You Say Run)
The two Pokemon started to run at each other with their fist ready to hit their opponent and end this fight!
Master Pan looked at the two of them before turning his attention to Ash.
'Ash, if this is the method of changing a person's point of view about strenght and where it really comes from? I can only hope that you open his eyes!' he thought.
On the battlefield, the two Sinnoh Pokemon charged at each other some more before leaping to deliver the fist that will conclude this battle!
Infernape let out a mighty scream to his rival, "AHHHHHH"
Electivire responded with a yell of his own, ("AHHHHHH")
Everyone was starting to worry since the two Pokemon looked like they were going to seriously hurt each other when those attacks land their target! Some thought that the two Pokemon might kill each other if someone didn't calm them down before they do so! The AM Warriors looked closely in order to see the outcome, and if Ash could get Paul to see the true meaning of where strength comes from!
"AHHHHH"
("AHHHHH")
"AHHHHH"
("AHHHHH")
"AHHHHH"
("AHHHHH")
"AHHHHH"
("AHHHHH")
"AHHHHH"
("AHHHHH")
"AHHHHH"
("AHHHHH")
The referee could see that the two Pokemon are really going to hurt each other even more badly than before. He needed to stop them before that happend, "Both of you! Recall your Pok-"
"Now, Infernape!" interupted Ash.
Infernape prepared his other fist for the attack that would end this fight!
Ash took a quick look at Paul for a second and thought to himself, 'Infernape is strong. You were too blinded by power to see that. But...'
"Use Flame Mach Cut!" called out Ash.
Infernape made his left fist glow white as he approached Electivire with two fist ready to attack! He managed to get to the electric type first since he has the speed advantage and brought both of his fist together in order to deliver a powerful double upper cut with Fire and Mach Punch!
Electivire's Thunder Punch was too slow and didn't hit Infernape cause he recived a double upper cut that was so powerful that the impact had sent his flying stright up into to air! If that wasn't crazy enough? He was shot through the ceiling of the gym and out the building!
"WHAT THE HECK!" was the reaction of nearly everyone in the gym! They had just witness Ash show off another new move that was able to sent a Pokemon as big as Electivre off the ground and through the ceiling of the School!
About a few seconds later, Electivire came falling back through the same hole he when out of and was quickly falling towards the battlefield. For Paul, time seemed to just slow down as he saw everything unfold in front of him. Electivire was falling in slow motion for him and as it was becoming more and more clear to him what was happening.
Right before Electivire could hit the ground, Infernape held up his arms and caught his rival before he could crash into the field. The impact of the sudden weight made his legs and arms shake as he struggled to keep him up, but he found the strength he needed and gently put Electivre down on the ground.
The Sinnoh electric type looked at Infernape with a smile and gave him a thumbs up for defeating him and then passed out!
(Song End)
'...our hard work and concern for each other's well being is what makes us stronger!' thought Ash as he finished his train of thought before the attack landed.
"E-Electivire is unable to battle! All of Paul's Pokemon have been defeated, so the winner is Ash Ketchum!" called out the referee.
Silence fulled the room as everyone looked at what had just happened. By using his all, Infernape defeated his former trainer in battle, and even showed sympathy towards on of his Pokemon by saving him from crashing into the ground. Now only that, but this Pokemon belonged to Ash, meaning that he has just defeated Paul again in a full six on six battle. Paul had lost again, and there was no other way to say it!
Everyone them started to cheered for the victors of this fight. Ash had defeated the strongest trainer in the School and had shown him that his way of seeing strength and care is superior to strength and brute force. Paul have always thought that only the strong matter and that everyone else was pathetic and was lower than lower, but Ash showed him the truth!
Paul dropped to his knees and looked at his defeated Electivre for the second time this month, he had lost to both Ash and his Infernape. The same Chimchar that he left behind because he didn't value his efferts to make him happy.
Ash walked towards the battlefield and held Infernape to keep him from dropping to the ground. He smled at his Pokemon knowing that he gave it him all and achieved his goal of defeating his former trainer and showing him that he was wrong!
Ash then looked at Paul with a serious face and decided it was time to have a proper talk with him, "Paul."
Hearing his name he looked up at Ash and heard what he had to say.
"Just because your strong, it doesn't mean you can mistreat others or your Pokemon. Everyone in this world can be strong if they work hard enough, and Infernape is a great example of that. We both trained hard in order to overcome our limits, but no matter how strong we are we know that there is someone stronger, and we shouldn't take out our frustration on others in order to make ourselves feel better. Any Pokemon or person can be strong, but treating them like tools or objects is not the way to get stronger."
Paul listened to what Ash said, but he was too crushed in defeat to properly understand what he was trying to say.
"Answer me this Paul. How pathetic are Infernape and I now that we're standing here as the winners, and your on your knees in defeat?" asked Ash.
Paul didn't say a word as he kept looking at Ash and Infernape, he couldn't answer that since he lost. And there was no way he could say it was just a fluke of luck for them. He lost, plain and simple!
"I like an answer now!" Ash raised his voice.
But the only answer he recived was Paul recalling Electivire to his Pokeball slowly, he then started to run out of the gym and towards the double doors. Just like Gary his pride was crushed and won't be repaired so easily. He dissappeared from everyone's sight, and wasn't going to be seen for the rest of the day!
Ash knew that this was going to happen as well, and couldn't really expect Paul to be a good sport about it. He just hoped that his last opponent today could a least try to accept a loss if he losses, but it could go ether way, cause next was Trip!
Ash knew that he was losing Pokemon at a fast rate and needed to be careful on how he uses his remind numbers, or else he'll lose and got everyone's hopes up too high for nothing!
I hope that your enjoying me gift to all of you as the next chapter is the finale of the Introduction Arc.
