Trip was looking at Pikachu and Pichu nervously as he remembered just how destructive the little Mouse Pokemon could be after watching it go up against both Gary and Paul and is still standing!
'How am I suppose to beat that little Kanto Pokemon?' he asked himself in his head. Trip wouldn't lie and say he wasn't afraid of what could happen if Ash made Pikachu enter "that Form" again!
While Pichu was looking around to see the Audience staring at the Field he started to get a bit uncomfortable with the thousands of Eyeballs looking at his direction. Thankfully his big brother gave him a hug to shielded him from their Eyes. Pikachu then looked at Trip and made his red cheeks spark with a bit of Static to warn the Unova Trainer that if he tries anything, there will be consequence!
Trip looked away and decided that it was best to wait for Ash so that he could get things started. He just hoped that Ash was out of strong Pokemon to make things a bit easier for him, but after seeing the display of power, strategy, and technique in the last two fight he wasn't so sure the strength of Ash's Pokemon would matter anymore!
Everyone was thinking the same thing, but other's thought that Ash might be out of options since he used such powerful Pokemon to take down both Gary and Paul. Trip was the only one left and he got a full display of Ash's true power, but since he's fighting last that means that he had time to think of a new Battle plan in order to surpass Ash's plan! Many started to wonder if he even stood a chance anymore, but that are a handful that have faith in him!
"Do you think Ash will still be able to win even after all the Pokemon that he loss?" asked May.
"Of course he can still win, May! He was never the kind to give up in the pass, so there's no reason for him to start now!" replied Serena. She have full conference in Ash's ability as a Trainer and know that he wouldn't run from a challenge no matter how hard it got!
Grace smiled at her daughter when she saw that her affection towards the raven haired Boy remained unchanged after all these years of being apart from him. She wondered how Delia will react to the fact that her Son is still popular with Girls! After all it's a Parent's Duty to tease their kids about their Love life.
But putting that thought aside, she wondered what Ash would do for his Final Battle of the Day.
(2 Minutes Later)
Ash had returned to the Gym with a new set of Pokemon ready to aid him in his Final Battle of the Day. The two yellow Mice Pokemon saw him and ran up his Body so that Pichu could rest on his Head, while Pikachu took the left Shoulder.
"You ready for this?" Ash asked Trip from across the Battlefield.
"I'm ready for anything you throw at me!" Trip smirked. He didn't want to let Ash know that he was a bit scared about how things could turn out if the last two Battles were anything to go by, but he then theorized that Ash's remaining Pokemon might not be as strong as his last set. He hoped that he was at least able to hold his own better than Paul and Gary.
"This will be a six on six Battle between Ash Ketchum and Trip. Substitutions are allowed. The Battle will be over when all of one Trainer's Pokemon is unable to continue." announced the Referee.
"OK, Lampent, show 'em what you got!" called Trip as he tossed his Pokeball onto the Battlefield.
"Pidgeot, I choose you!" called out Ash.
From Trip's Pokeball came a Lamp Pokemon that was floating with a purple flame and two yellow Eyes. Ash meanwhile released a big Bird Pokemon that can be found in his home region of Kanto.
"It has been decided that Trip gets the first move. Battle begin!"
"Use Flamethrower."
Lampent started to release a powerful stream of Fire at Pidgeot that flew very quickly, but Pidgeot's superior speed was more than enough to allow him to dodge the Attack without much effort. This allowed him to get behind Lampent as Ash gave out an order.
"Use Wing Attack."
Pidgeot zoomed towards the back of Lampent with his left Wing glowing with white Aura to show that it was ready to Attack. But instead of hitting Lampent, Pidgeot just flew past him as if he hadn't touched him at all. Which he did!
"Wow. You don't know that Lampent is part Ghost type, do you?" asked Trip.
Ash said nothing in reply to Trip's Question, he instead gave Pidgeot another order to attack, "Gust."
Pidgeot began to flap his Wings harder than usual and created a strong Wind at blew against Lampent, but the Attack had no effect like the Wing Attack did. Ash smirked as he just set his plan into motion.
"I guess you need to learn about the basics all over again. Use Shadow Ball." said Trip.
Lampent started to form a Sphere of black Aura from in front of his Body and slowly made it grow bigger and bigger, until it was the size of a Basketball. He then aimed it at Pidgeot and fired it at him.
"Use Gust, again."
Pidgeot followed Ash's order and began flapping his Wings at a much faster pace than he did before. Because he flapped them harder he was able to slowdown the Shadow Ball as it continued to approach him, until the Gust Attack was so strong the it stopped the Shadow Ball and the wind ended up sending it back in the direction that it came from. Heading towards Lampent!
"What!?" cried Trip in complete shock.
Lampent was also surprised that his own Attack is coming back at him, but he was able to dodge by moving backwards a bit, just before the ground in front of him exploded in a dust cloud.
"Pidgeot, return." said Ash as he called back his first Bird Pokemon.
Everyone was wondering why Ash had called Pidgeot back. He was doing a fine job against Lampent, even though his Attacks had no effect on it. Ash had some kind of Strategy going on in his head, that was for sure.
"Snorlax, I choose you." he called out.
Once the dust had cleared out, it revealed a very big and fat Pokemon that was standing on two feet looking down at Lampent.
"A Snorlax? This should be easy! Use Flamethrower."
Lampent fired another stream of Fire at the giant round Pokemon and was confident that it wasn't going to be able to dodge because of it's big size. He was forced to rethink that as Ash gave out another shout.
"Hyper Beam."
Snorlax opened his mouth and made a small orange Sphere of Aura, before firing it as a huge powerful orange beam that was rushing towards the oncoming Flamethrower. One would think we see another beam struggle, but the power of the Hyper Bream was too much for the Flamethrower to compete with and it ended up blasting right through the Fire Attack and ended up hitting Lampent. That hit caused a powerful explosion that covered the field in dust!
A few people were starting to get frustrated that dust kept on covering their view of the Battles, but said nothing and only kept watching to see what would happen. When the dust cleared, it revealed Lampent hat fainted from that single Attack from Snorlax.
"Lampent is unable to battle, Snorlax wins." called the Referee.
The crowd cheered at the outcome of the Fight as it was made clear that Ash still had some Pokemon that could pack a Punch or two!
Trip just returned Lampent to his Pokeball with a disappointed look on his Face. He didn't expect Lampent to be taken down by a Kanto Pokemon so easily. This wasn't going to be as easy as he thought with Ash still having a lot of strong Pokemon left after his last two Battles.
"Go, Frillish." called out Trip.
A blue water and Ghost type Pokemon appeared on the Battlefield and was ready for a Fight. This could be anyone's Fight, since no Pokemon held an advantage against the other.
"Start off with Water Pulse."
Frillish brought it's Tentacles together and began forming a blue ball of Water in between them, once it was finished, he threw it at Snorlax as hard as he could.
"Use Ice Punch on it."
Snorlax surrounded his right hand with glowing blue Aura and threw his Fist at the oncoming ball of Water. Once the attacks collided with each other, Snorlax's Ice Punch turned the Water Pulse into a Sphere of frozen Ice and shattered it due to the impact of the Punch.
Trip was surprised to see that Ash's Snorlax knew and Ice type move, but that meant that this was his plan all along. Use a Pokemon that had a move with a type advantage instead of the Pokemon itself. Trip was now stuck with trying to come up with a Counter Attack of his own to throw off Ash and Snorlax.
"Use Night Shade."
Frillish's eyes started to glow red as he was then surrounded by a scary looking black looking Aura. He then started to move his Tentacles slowly as pink rings started heading towards Snorlax. He was hit by them and was receiving damage. But once the Attack stopped he was fine again.
"Not bad, I didn't see that coming at all." Ash smiled as he was starting to feel more excited about this Battle.
"Of course you didn't see it come, since everyone from the Bonnies could be caught off guard by that." smirked Trip.
Ash was confused as to why Trip always refers to Kanto as "The Boonies". He might have had an experience that involves Kanto in order to cause him to think this way, but that's way he was using most of his Kanto Pokemon for this Battle in the first place.
"Snorlax, use Body Slam."
Snorlax jumped into the Air and his Shadow was moving across the Battlefield until it was right on top of Frillish.
"Protect."
A turquoise Force field surrounded Frillish as Snorlax falls down on top of the Force field and was unable to hurt Frillish, so he hopped off and landed in front of him. This close distance was just want Ash needed!
"Ice Punch."
Once the Force field was down, Frillish was punched in the Face by an Ice cold fist that sent him flying backwards until he crashed into the ground and sled backwards until he was in front of Trip.
"Frillish!"
Said Pokemon quickly got up and looked over at his Trainer to show him he was fine, even though he got hit by a move that was super effective!
"Use Hex."
"Snorlax, use Protect."
Frillish's eyes glow purple and red, he then starts to make a sphere of black Aura with a red Eye in the middle. He then lifted it above his Head and the Eye started to release dark blue rings that were heading towards Snorlax. Fortunately for him, he started to glow white as he activated Protect to shield himself from the rings, as they had no effect once they hit him. Once Hex ended, Snorlax stopped glowing as he was shown to be just fine.
Trip was not happy to see that Snorlax had manage to avoid being hit by Frillish's Hex attack by also using Protect, but he knew this Battle was going to be anything but easy!
"Use Bubble Beam."
Frillish started to blow a beam of tiny bubbles at Snorlax from his Mouth.
"Counter it with Hyper Beam."
Snorlax opened his Mouth and fired an orange beam of Aura at the incoming Bubble Beam. The two attacks met in the middle and began to push against each other in order to outdo the other for superiority in power, but were evenly matched as the two attacks then exploded and covered the field in dust.
(A/N: What a surprise.)
The dust cloud covered everyone's view of what happened before it finally started to clear out and show that Frillish and Snorlax are still standing strong and proud. Everyone was expecting one of them to have fainted from the explosion, but seeing them both still standing was proven to be very exciting as the two Pokemon could continue to put on a show for them!
"Wow, I didn't expect Frillish to still be standing after that explosion! You really trained him to take hits well." Ash complemented on Frillish's Durability.
"If you thought that an explosion like that was enough to take down Frillish, your sadly mistaken! He can take harder hits than you think he can!" Trip praised his Pokemon.
"You mean he can survive another Ice Punch from Snorlax?" Ash asked his opponent sarcastically.
"Try for yourself and see!" Trip challenged Ash as he hope that the raven haired Trainer would take the bait.
"If you say so. Ice Punch." said Ash.
Snorlax made his right fist glow white again as it was once again covered in Ice as he ran to strike at Frillish like before. Unlike before, Trip knew just what to do as he had a plan and as hoping that it was going to work!
"Protect."
Frillish created a Force field like before and was able to take the Ice Punch without any harm at all.
"I thought you said that Frillish was able to take another Ice Punch?" Ash sarcastically said.
"I never said he needed to get hurt in order to take it. Now you've fallen into my trap! Use Absorb." Trip ordered.
Frillish puts the Force field down and points his Tentacles at Snorlax, which he them fired two red beams that hit the huge Kanto Pokemon and are slowly draining away his heal and giving it to Frillish so that he can use it to stay in the Battle longer.
"You really think I wouldn't think or something like this!? Use Rest." Ash ordered.
Snorlax then closed his eyes and started to fall peacefully asleep on the Battlefield in order to regain his energy that he had lost. Now that Snorlax was asleep, he was out of the battle until he decided to wake up. Ash know that there was only one option left for now.
"Return, Snorlax. Thanks for the hard work!" Ash smiled as he pick another Pokeball from his belt and release a new Pokemon.
"Butterfree, I choose you!"
A Butterfly Pokemon had appeared on the Battlefield and was ready for Action. The determination in his eyes could tell you if you don't believe it.
"A Bug type...No problem! Use Shadow Ball." called out Trip. He was determined to end this end this quickly.
Frillish made another ball of black Aura and started to make it bigger than the last one. Once it was finished, he tossed it at the bug type Pokemon with full power, hoping that it would land a hit this time.
"Use String Shot and send it back!"
Butterfree shot a piece of white String from it's mouth until it started to cover up that Shadow Ball and make it into large ball of String.
"What's happening!?" asked Trip in complete shock.
Butterfree then used the String that was still attached to him mouth to swing the ball of String around and tossed it back in the direction that it came from. It was now heading straight towards Frillish at a rapid speed, probably faster than before!
"Use Bubble Beam."
Frillish opened his mouth and fired tiny bubbles from his Mouth again in order to destroy the ball of String that was coming towards him. The Bubble Beam ended up hitting the String Ball and that caused the energy from the Shadow Ball inside to reaction, which them lead to and explosion that kicked up another layer of dust to block that view.
"Use Sleep Powder." said Ash.
Butterfree was now flying over Frillish and dropping a bit of light blue Powder on top of his opponent. He was able to get over Frillish without him and his Trainer knowing thanks to the dust cloud. The Sleep Powder did it's job and Frillish was out like a light, sleeping peacefully and calmly without a care in the World.
"Great! Now we both have a Pokemon that's off in Dreamland." complained Trip.
"That's the whole idea of Sleep Powder y'know." Ash replied with a smile on his Face.
Trip said nothing else and returned Frillish for now, he'll wake up later so that the two of them could finish this. For now, he needed another Pokemon that could give Butterfree a hard time. And he knew just the one!
"OK, Tranquill, let's go!"
Out came a the Bird Pokemon of Unova in it's second evolved form. Since it was a Flying type it makes it the perfect counter for a Bug type like Butterfree. And Ash was also aware of this as well.
"Butterfree, get ready to return." he said to his Pokemon.
But instead of listening, Butterfree shook his Head saying that it wanted to keep on Fighting, even though he know it would end badly for him, he wanted to see this through to the end and wanted to go down the way of a warrior. Just like the AM Warriors!
Ash just signed, but accepted his Pokemon's decision, "OK, but if you get really hurt I'm calling you back when I say so, OK?"
Butterfree assured Ash that he would listen when it was time for him to rest.
"Use Air Cutter."
Tranquill started to flap his Wings as they began to glow blue and started firing blue energy blades at Butterfree.
"Dodge them, Butterfree."
Butterfree started to move around the blue energy blades as fast as he could as he kept on staring at his opponent. He really wanted to see if he had grown stronger over the past few years and fighting a Pokemon like Tranquill was the perfect opportunity to find out.
"Use String Shot."
Butterfree opened his Mouth and started to shoot more String from it at Tranquill, but the Bird Pokemon was quickly dodging them without much effort being used by him. But Butterfree kept at it, hoping that he might try to tire out Tranquill before the next move was called.
"Double Team." Trip called.
Tranquill started to make copies of himself as Butterfree was not left confused, having to look at about five Tranquills flying over him without having any was of telling which one was the real one.
"Use Quick Attack."
One of the Tranquills surrounded himself with white Aura and started to fly towards Butterfree from behind before smashing into him with the Quick Attack. Butterfree fell to the ground in great pain!
"Butterfree! Speack to me!" called out Ash.
Butterfree was able to get back into the Air by flapping his Wings. But he wasn't looking to good from the impact that he took seconds ago. Ash knew that it would be a better idea to return Butterfree now and have him rest, but he then got an idea that could help him later down the line.
"Use Quick Attack to end this!" called out Trip.
Tranquill started to once again fly towards Butterfree with a boost of speed thanks to the white Aura the surrounded his body. Ash said nothing to get Butterfree to prepare for the impact, but waited until the right time to call out the moves he wanted Butterfree to preform. Only a few more seconds were needed!
"Poison Powder."
That was his cue! Butterfree flapped his Wings and released a purple Powder onto Tranquill and he smashed into Butterfree a second later! The two crashed into the ground and a tiny dust cloud kicked up, but it only lasted for a second as it then revealed Butterfree on his back with Tranquill standing next to him. Just by looking that Butterfree's swirly eyes.
"Butterfree is unable to battle, Tranquill wins." called the Referee.
Ash was now down one Pokemon from this Battle. Trip was finally relieved that he managed to knockdown one of Ash's Pokemon, meaning they were now tied in numbers.
"Return, Butterfree. Thanks for all of your hard work! I promise that it won't be in vain." Ash smiled towards the Pokeball that now had Butterfree inside.
"Pidgeot, I choose you!" he called out as his Bird Pokemon to face off against Trip's.
"It looks like you want to have a Sky Battle then, don't you?" asked Trip.
"You bet! You up for the Challenge?" asked our protagonist.
"Of course. Everything to see which of the two is stronger!" smirked Trip.
"In that case, use Sand Attack."
Pidgeot flew to the ground and began to smack his Wings against the dirt in order to create a cloud of dust that ended up blocking Tranquill's view of him. Of course this wasn't going to stop Trip from landing a hit, even if it means he can't see his opponent.
"Use Air Cutter." he called out.
Tranquill started to make his wings glow blue as he fired blue blades of Aura at the dust cloud.
"Dodge it with Quick Attack." said Ash.
Pidgeot came zooming out from the side of the dust cloud and was leaving behind a stream of white Aura that was giving him a speed boost. The extra speed power allowed his to avoid getting hit by the blue blades and he started to head towards Tranquill in order to slam into him.
"Use Aerial Ace."
Tranquill started to fly towards Pidgeot while his body was started to be surrounded by white streaks of Aura. However, before he could come close to Pidgeot, he felt a great pain move through his body as he stopped the attack and yelled out in pain as his body briefly turned purple. He was poisoned from Butterfree's Poison Powder! This gave Pidgeot the moment he needed to slam right in to Tranquill's chest and send him falling towards the ground.
"Tranquill, use Work Up."
Tranquill got up from the ground and was in the air again. He then started to surround his body with a light red aura that raised his Attack Power.
"Now use Double Team."
Tranquill then started to make more copy illusions of himself until there about seven Tranquills on the Battlefield that all surrounded Pidgeot. He then flew out of the circle of Tranquills and started to fly away from them as best he could, but they all started to follow him around as they tailed his every move. It was hard to tell which one was real, until one cried out in pain a briefly turned purple.
"Use Wing Attack on that one!" shouted Ash.
Pidgeot then made a U-turn and flew towards the Tranquill that was poisoned. He turned his Wings white as they glowed with said colored Aura, which he then used to hit Tranquill. This resulted in the Unova Bird Pokemon to fall back into the Battlefield and cancel out the illusion of Double Team. Tranquill then fainted when he hit the ground, as he couldn't take any more.
"Tranquill is unable to battle, Pidgeot wins." called out the Referee.
Everyone cheered as Pidgeot proved to be the better and stronger Bird Pokemon of this Sky Battle. Trip just simply returned Tranquill without saying anything, as he was disappointed that he lose to a Kanto Pokemon again. He then looked at Ash and saw the he held out one of his Arms for Pidgeot to land on and started to rub his Head with a smile.
Trip just couldn't figure this guy out. He had always looked down on the Kanto Region and anyone from there, with the exemption of Gary, but Ash just shows up at School one day and proves to be a worth adversary to them. He had some powerful Pokemon alright and he had a feeling that it was only going to get tougher from this point forward, but he wasn't going to back down!
"OK, Serperior, let's go!"
Trip had called out his very first Pokemon ever, his Serperior. Everyone that know about Serperior was sure that he was going to give Ash a run for him money as even Pikachu's Thunder Armor was going to struggle against it!
"You want to keep going, Pidgeot?" Ash asked his Bird Friend.
Pidgeot nodded as he flew towards the Battlefield again and was ready for another round of Fighting!
"Use Solar Beam."
Sererior opened it's Mouth and fired a powerful beam of yellow Aura at Pidgeot. The Bird Pokemon dodged the Sun powered Attack an was now heading towards the giant grass Snake.
"Use Double Edge."
Pidgeot's body started to glow a green Aura and flew towards Serperior. The Grass type dodged the Attack by just leaning towards the side and letting Pidgeot fly past him, but the Bird did an loop in the Air and came back to slam his Head against Serperior from behind!
"Serperior!" yelled Trip with a concerned voice.
Serperior was shaking his head and was then panting hard as that one attack caused him a lot of damage. Ash was surprised to say the least.
'How can just one attack put Serperior close to fainting! Did Trip not train him that all in Durability?' he thought to himself.
"Use Dragon Tail."
"Counter it with Quick Attack."
Serperior started to make his tail glow purple as the Aura in this Attack was pretty powerful with it being a Dragon type move. While Pidgeot covered himself in white Aura in order to get an extra boost in speed. When the two Pokemon were ready they both headed towards each other. Serperior jumped into the Air and did a Somersault and brought his tail down, while Pidgeot just zoomed in to slam onto his opponent. Pidgeot collided with the Dragon Tail and the result was an explosion that blew the two Pokemon back from each other and into the Battlefield in front of their Trainers!
"Pidgeot!"
"Serperior!"
The Trainers looked down at their fallen Pokemon to see if they were alright. Serperior was looking in pretty back shape and was barely hanging on to consciousness, but he was still able to find the power to get up from that Attack explosion. Pidgeot was not doing as well and as if you look closely look Ash was doing you could see that he had fainted from the Battle.
"Pidgeot is now unable to battle, Serperior wins."
Ash returned his first Bird Pokemon to his Pokeball with a bit of a sad smile, but he know that Pidgeot gave it his all, which is what really mattered.
"Thanks for all the hard work, pal." he smiled at the Pokeball before putting it away and pulling out another one.
"Serperior, return." said Trip as he returned his heavily damaged Pokemon for now. Ash was a least happy to see that Trip knew when to recall a Pokemon if it's not at a good position to Fight anymore. It shows it's not as arrogant as the last two opponents he faced Today.
"Frillish, come back out." said Trip as he made his Frillish reappear on the Battlefield.
Frillish was now fully awake again. That meant Butterfree's Sleep Powder has worn off and allowed Frillish to get some rest for more Fighting.
"Pikachu, I choose you!"
"PIKA!" yelled Ash's partner as he jumped off his Trainer's Shoulder and onto the Battlefield. Trip got a bit nervous about this, but he wasn't going to back down from this Fight just because of an earlier display of power and a type advantage.
"Frillish, use Night Shade."
"Pikachu, use Quick Attack."
Frillish started to glow red and get surrounded by scary black Aura, but before he could finish the attack he was slammed into the ground by Pikachu as he was surrounded by white Aura to boost his speed. Pikachu just stood in front of his opponent in order to give him a chance to get up. Trip saw this as an opportunity to strike back.
"Use Hex." he ordered.
"Thunderbolt." said Ash.
Frillish got up from the ground and began to make his eyes glow purple but before he could made a black Sphere of Aura he was hit by Pikachu's powerful Thunderbolt Attack that did a big number on him, so big that the electricity from the attack made him faint afterwards.
"Frillish is unable to battle, Pikachu wins." called out the Referee.
Everyone ended up cheering for Pikachu's victory. Ash's first Pokemon really was a Powerhouse, but that the same time he had the type advantage. Ash was making quick work of Trip's Pokemon as shown in this Battle which only lasted about minute after the Pokemon were called out.
Trip returned Frillish to his Pokeball and looked at Pikachu on the Battlefield. He was waving at Pichu that was still on top of Ash's Head getting a front row seat of the Action. He knew that Pikachu was the biggest threat the he has in this Battle so far, but Ash's other Pokemon hadn't made an appearance yet, which meant he he didn't know what other powerful Pokemon that are around Pikachu's level that Ash could have brought with him! Trip knew that he'll have to take out Pikachu as quickly as he could in order eliminate the threat that he posed this his chances of wining this match!
"Conkeldurr, let's go!" Trip called as he released his next Pokemon.
Conkeldurr appeared on the Battlefield and by just looking at it you can tell that it was strong, but it was also bigger than Pikachu in size and height. Ash and Pikachu weren't scared as they had faced off against countless bigger opponent's before. Plus, if he was like Trip's other Pokemon that meant that his defense power was pretty low in exchange for brute strength.
"You think you can handle this, buddy?" Ash asked his best friend.
"PIKA!" smiled Pikachu.
"Alright then, use Electro Ball."
Pikachu started to cover his body in Electricity as it then started to form a yellow Sphere on the end of his lightning shaped tail, it grew bigger and bigger until it was about the size of a Bowling Ball. What that task complete, Pikachu fired the ball of Electricity at Conkeldurr as hard as he could.
"Block it." said Trip.
Conkeldurr waited until the Electro Ball came closer to him before moving one if his Pillars in front of him to block the Attack. When the Electro Ball hit the stone Pillars it exploded and covered the Field in dust to block everyone's view of the resulting impact.
"Use Rock Throw."
The dust cleared to reveal that Conkeldurr was holding a MASSIVE Boulder over his Head and used all of his strength to toss it at Pikachu. Ash and Pikachu looked at the Boulder as it flew towards them, but Ash has just the right move for the Job!
"Use Iron Tail."
Pikachu made his lightning shaped tail glow white before it turned into Metal. The yellow Mouse Pokemon waited until the right moment before using his legs and arms to leap up into the Air and preform a Back flip and hitting his Metal tail against the Boulder. This resulted in the Boulder being cut in half as the two halves flew pass Pikachu and completely unharmed him!
"Thunderbolt."
"PIKACHUUUUUU!"
Pikachu generated Electricity and fired it into the form of a long stream that flew towards Conkeldurr. It was so fast that the giant Fighting type didn't have anytime to move his Pillars to block the Attack and was hit by the Thunderbolt. Conkeldurr closed his eyes in pain as he could feel the Electric energy enter his body and deal damage to him, once the attack stopped, he could still feel a bit more Electricity flowing through his body. Small sparks of Electricity also showed up around his body, meaning the Pikachu's ability 'Static' has kicked in!
'Just great!' thought Trip. The Static would be a problem to overcome for him, but he needed to do something in order to Attack Pikachu from a distance in order to prevent Static from interfering.
"You can return now, Pikachu." Ash called out to his best friend.
Pikachu ran back towards Ash and climbed up his Body until he got onto his Shoulder. He then looked up to give both Ash and Pichu a thumbs up before looking back at the Battlefield.
'That must have been his plan all along! To use Pikachu's Static to paralyze Conkeldurr and stop him from moving around, that way he can't dodge Attacks!' annualized Trip.
"Snorlax, I choose you!"
Snorlax had returned to the Battlefield and was now fully rested up and full of health again, as if the previous Battle never happened. He was also awake which could be considered a lucky chance since he almost always sleep. Ash knew just what he had to do in order to take Conkeldurr down.
"Snorlax, use Hyper Beam."
Snorlax opened his Mouth and started to charge up a powerful beam of orange Aura to unleash at his opponent. Once it was at full power, Snorlax fired the beam at full force straight at Conkeldurr. The Fighting type Pokemon simply blocked the attack using his giant stone Pillars to shield himself taking the attack full out. It worked as the Hyper Beam ended up hitting the Pillars and a few streams of Aura moved around the Pillars and past Conkeldurr. When the Hyper Beam stopped, it gave Ash the opportunity to call out the next move.
"Mega Punch."
Snorlax ran up to Conkeldurr with his right fist closed and was making it glow white. Once he was close enough, he launched his fist at his opponent, but the stone Pillars blocked his target.
"Use Ice Punch."
"Intercept it with Dynamite Punch."
Snorlax's left fist started to glow an even brighter white then before and threw his fist at Conkeldurr. The Fighting type Pokemon let go of the Pillar from his right hand and made his right fist glow with red Aura. The two punches collided in the middle and the impact created a shock wave that blew Air outwards towards everyone around him. The two Pokemon struggled with their fist as they pushed them against each other in order to overpower the other. But suddenly, Snorlax's Ice Punch was starting to take effect as Ice began to cover Conkeldurr's Arm and then began to freeze over the rest of his Body until he was a frozen Iceberg!
"Conkeldurr!" yelled Trip.
"Use Mega Kick."
Snorlax then started to make his left foot glow white as it was charged up with Aura to give it a super boost in power. Then he lifted it and kicked the Iceberg with full force as the impact shattered the Ice and launched Conkeldurr into the Air until he feel back down on his back and sled against the ground until he stopped in front of Trip, who got a good look at his face to see that he couldn't Fight anymore!
"Conkeldurr is unable to battle, Snorlax is the winner!" called out the Referee.
Ash ran up to his huge Pokemon and gave it a hug to congratulate it on his victory. Snorlax hugged back with his left arm to show that he appreciates Ash's praise. Pikachu and Pichu both ran up his body and stopped on top of his head to cheer the big fella on for a job well done.
Trip meanwhile just return Conkeldurr without saying anything to him, as he was too busy watching Ash and his Pokemon make fools out of themselves, in his opinion at least. He just can't believe that he is losing to someone like Ash. When he first met him he didn't think much of him as he was trying to assault him just for a laugh and giggle, but now that got to know Ash and his personality a bit more he would say that he isn't too fond of the Kanto Trainer. He never liked Kanto to begin with, but now he's losing to someone from the 'Bonnies' and it was damaging his pride greatly.
"You can return now, Snorlax. Great job!" smiled Ash as he returned Snorlax to his Pokeball as Pikachu and Pichu jumped back on his Head and Shoulder.
"You done?" asked Trip with an annoyed tone of voice.
"Yup. You ready to keep going?" replied Ash with is own question.
"You bet! Vanillite, let's go!" called out Trip.
Out of the Pokeball appeared a Pokemon that looked like and Ice Cream Cone with a face. Ash had seen plenty of strange looking Pokemon before, but it never changed the fact that he always felt a bit weird when he looked at a strange looking Pokemon.
"Primeape, I choose you!" Ash called out his first fighting type Pokemon.
Primeape appeared on to the Battlefield and he looked like he was ready to kick some butt big time! Trip was at a big type disadvantage because of this, but know that he needed to save his Serperior for later.
"Use Ice Shard."
Vanillite started to surround himself with chunks of Ice that were spinning around him like shield. He then started firing them one by one at Primeape in order to inflect damage.
"Dodge them!" shouted Ash.
Primeape was now moving around in order to avoid being hit by the little pieces of Ice that ended up crashing into the ground were he was seconds ago. He kept on moving on the defensive until Vanillite ran out of Ice to throw.
"Use Mega Kick."
Primeape made his right foot glow white to increase the power of his attack, then with a mighty leap he jumped towards Vanillite and stuck out his feet to preform a flying kick the hit the Ice Pokemon right in the face. the impact was enough to knock the Ice Pokemon onto his back and caused him to faint.
"Vanillite is unable to battle, Primeape wins!" called out the Referee.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"That was quick..." Ash was a bit surprised at how fast this Battle was. He had the type advantage sure, but it would have been nice if it took more than one attack to take Vanillite down. Trip's Pokemon my be awesome in power and speed, but they are horrible when it comes to defense.
Trip was now returning the Ice Cream Cone Pokemon and was now down to his last Pokemon. Ash still had four left, this means if he plays it carefully he could win!
"Serperior. Finish this!" Trip called out as he sent in his last Pokemon.
Serperior was back on the battlefield and was looking a bit better than the last time we saw him. Most of the bruises were gone, he wasn't covered in dirt, and he could stand his body up straight like he normally could. Ash hoped that Serperior would last longer, because he wants to see this battle get his Adrenaline pumping!
"Serperior, use Synthesis."
The Green type Pokemon started to glow yellow as his injuries from earlier began to heal as he was also gaining his strength back as well. Once Serperior stopped glowing yellow, he was ready for action!
"Use Dragon Tail." ordered Trip.
Serperior started to make his tail glow purple until it was powered up. He them slandered closer to Primeape in order to get a good hit, which he did since he was too fast for Ash to tell Primeape to dodge he hit Primeape in the Face and watched him fly backwards before he landed on the ground.
"You OK, Primeape?" asked Ash to his Fighting type Pokemon.
Said Pokemon got up from the ground and was looking at Serperior with a lot of anger hidden behind his eyes, he wasn't happen about the fact that he was hit so quickly and hard the he barely had time to react. He was going to land a hit on Serperoir, that was for sure!
"If your sure your fine, OK. get in closer." said Ash.
Primeape didn't need to be told twice as he started to rush towards Serperior quickly. Trip just smirked thinking that Ash was letting his Pokemon rush in without thinking, this allowed him to come up with a counter attack.
"Use Energy Ball."
Serperior opened his Mouth and started to charge up a ball of green Aura that was plant powered. Once it was fully charged he fired it at the oncoming attacker, but Ash knew just what to do to get rid of it.
"Use Karate Chop."
Primeape lifted his right arm and brought it down on the Energy Ball to chop it into the ground. This caused an explosion the made dust fly up and create a dust cloud, which ended up blocking everyone's view of what happened to Primeape.
"Use Seismic Toss." said Ash.
Serperior felt something grab his tail and turned his head around only to see Primeape grabbing his tail with a tight grip. The dust cloud was a distraction to sneak up behind Serperior without him or Trip knowing because the cloud blocked their view of him. Primeape them started to use his strength to swing Serperior off the ground and twirl him around in the Air so fast that it made Serperior look like a green Tornado!
"Serperior!" called out Trip in shock.
Once Primeape was done with the spinning he tossed the Grass type Pokemon away and watched as he crashed into the ground. He started to get backup a few seconds later, but he received a lot of damage from the last attack and was really struggling to get up.
'Trip really hasn't trained his Pokemon to take hits at all, only give them.' Ash thought to himself in his Head.
"Use Synthesis."
Serperior started to make his Body glow yellow as he began to heal his injures from before to help him stand a better chance of Fighting this Battle. Once he finished healing himself, he turned around to look at Primeape, who was still ready to go!
"Primeape, use Karate Chop."
Primeape started to rush towards Serperior as fast as he could to make his Attack hit. Serperior however had greater speed than him and just moved to the side to let Primeape's Karate Chop move by him.
"Use Wrap."
Serperior then wrapped his tail and Primeape's body and trapped him in his tail to keep him from escaping. He was also squeezing very tightly to also hurt Primeape while he was trapped within his tail.
"Primeape!" called out Ash.
The Pig Monkey Pokemon was struggling to make it out of his opponent's tail, but that was easier said than done as it was wrapped around him tightly and was making him lost oxygen. If this could be considered bad, thing are about to get worse!
"Use Solar Beam."
Serperior opened his Mouth and started to charge up a powerful Sphere of yellow Aura, after charging it for a few moments he fired it at Primeape from point bland range that made dust kick up after the explosion. Serperior took a bit of damage from the blast as he was so close to it, but Primeape took the worse of it and he sled on his back until he was in front of his Trainer. He had swirly eyes and was covered in bruise that could tell anyone that he had enough.
"Primeape is unable to battle, Serperior wins." called out the Referee.
Ash return Primeape to his Pokeball to allow him to rest after a hard fought Battle.
"Thanks for all of your hard work. Now rest, I'll take care of what's left." he said to Primeape's Pokeball before putting it away.
"Pikachu, I choose you." he called out as his Partner jumped from his Shoulder and onto the Battlefield.
This confused everyone as to why he was using Pikachu since he was at a disadvantage. But they then started to think that Ash was planning on using that move 'Thunder Armor' the help give Pikachu an edge over Serepior. They couldn't wait to see what was going to happen next!
"No problem. Use Leaf Tornado." said Trip.
"Use Thunderbolt as a counter shield." said Ash.
Serperior moved his tail in a circle quickly to make a powerful Tornado that started to have Leaves appear around it. The Wind was so powerful that it caused many people in the Audience to cover their Eyes from the dust that was blowing their way. The green Tornado was now heading for Pikachu at a rapid speed, but the Mouse Pikachu was super chill as he was about to preform the technique that Ash had developed during their adventures in Sinnoh!
Pikachu jumped on to his back and started to spin while he fired Thunderbolt, this created electric barrier that ended up protecting him from getting hit by the Leaf Tornado, as it couldn't get near him since the Electricity kept on blocking the Leaves from hitting him while he was spinning on the ground.
"What kind of move it that!?" asked Trip in shock. Serperior's Leaf Tornado has never failed on hitting an opponent before. But that all changed today as Pikachu used this defensive technique to protect himself the grass type move!
"I call it a Counter Shield. And if you think that's impressive, wait until you this this! Use Electro Ball and then fired at it with Thunderbolt!" said Ash.
Once Pikachu stopped spinning on his back, the Shield went down. He them charged up a ball of Electricity on his tail and launched it at his opponent. He then fired a Thunderbolt at the Electro Ball, which boosted it's speed and made it move faster towards Serperior. Luckily for Trip, his Pokemon was able to dodge the attack before it hit him, which caused an explosion that covered the Field in a dust cloud.
The dust covered everybody's view of the field and that also meant that the Trainers and Pokemon couldn't see what their opponent was doing. This gave Trip an idea, since Ash and Pikachu couldn't see what he was doing, he decided to Attack while that dust was up.
"Serperior, use Frenzy Plant."
Serperior's body started to glow green before it stooped and he stuck his tail into the ground. A bunch of giant Roots with Spikes appeared on the Battlefield and were heading towards Pikachu to strike him, but the dust cloud made it difficult to see where he was and what would happen. But a voice gave out an order that help pin point the location.
"Use Iron Tail and slice 'em up!"
That was Ash's voice, no mistaking it. For the next few second the sound of a Blade cutting up Plants can be heard through the dust cloud. When the dust finally cleared, it showed Pikachu just smiling with his tail made out of Metal behind him, all around him was the roots from the Frenzy Plant cut up into smaller piece. That Iron Tail was really making things hard for Trip now.
"Serperior, use Wrap."
"Dodge it, Pikachu."
Serperior was moving as fast as he could in order to make it to Pikachu, but the Mouse Pokemon was just a bit faster and ended up avoiding Serperior's tail by running around it when it tried to grab him.
"Use Iron Tail."
"Counter it with Dragon Tail."
Pikachu turned his tail in to Metal while Serperior covered his in purple Aura. The two Pokemon swung their tails at each other and they collided together, but it was Iron Tail that was stronger and it ended up dealing damage to Serperior's own tail after it overpowered the Dragon Tail. Pikachu landed on his feet while Serperior fell to the ground.
"Use Synthesis."
Serperior got up and started to make his body glow yellow so the his health could be restored for another round. After he has finished healing up Ash did something unexpected.
"Come on back, Pikachu."
Pikachu just ran back to his Trainer and ended up running up his Body and onto his left Shoulder again. This confused everyone as Ash was doing so well with Pikachu, despite them having the type disadvantage. The only answer that anyone could think of is that Ash's last Pokemon was even stronger and stood a better chance at beating Serperior than Pikachu does.
Ash must want to finish this quickly so that this Battle can be over with and that he can go Home, he had three Pokemon left and Trip was on his last one, so he might want to just end this and call it a Day.
"Time for our last Pokemon! Greninja, I choose you!" Ash called out as he tossed his last Pokeball of the Day.
Ash's first Pokemon from his most recent journey in the Kalos Region appeared. A Frog Pokemon that has blue skin, a yellow belly and it's Tongue wrapped around his Neck like a Scarf. But the only problem that this Pokemon had was that it was a Water type, and Serperior was a Grass type. That meant that Trip had the edge in this Battle now!
Everyone was very confused as to why Ash chose another Pokemon that was at a disadvantage against Serperior. But they then started to realize that if Pikachu was able to hold his own against Serperior then maybe Greninja could do the same as well. All they could do was wait and see if they were correct.
Trip wasn't sure if he should take Ash's decision for Serperior's next opponent seriously, but decided to just Attack anyway.
"Use Energy Ball."
Serperior opened his Mouth and started to create a Sphere of green Aura that began to grow bigger and bigger until it was ready and he fired it at Greninja.
"Use Water Pulse."
Greninja brought his Hands together and started to make a ball of Water in his hands until it was as big as the Energy Ball and he fired it at the incoming Attack.
The two Spheres flew though the Air until they collided and caused an explosion that created a dust cloud that only covered the middle of the Field where they met. Everyone in the Audience could still see what was happening, but the Trainers and Pokemon on the Field were blocked from the view of their opponents by a dust cloud.
Trip decided that it was best to use this opportunity to Attack, since Ash won't be able to see him.
"Use Frenzy Plant."
Serperior stuck his tail into the ground and he then started to glow with green Aura surrounding his body, this caused giant Roots to come up from the Battlefield and they made their way towards Greninja.
"Jump into the Air."
Greninja can be seen jumping over the dust cloud and high up until he was near the ceiling of the gym. The Frenzy Plant Roots weren't able to reach him and the Attack failed.
"Use Cut." said Ash.
When Greninja made it back down to the ground he created a small Blade in his hands using white Aura. He began to rush towards Serperior with the Blade in his left hand to take a swing at the Grass type.
"Use Dragon Tail." ordered Trip.
Serperior made his tail glow purple again and swung it at Greninja, who stopped it with his white glowing Blade. The two Pokemon looked at each other while they continued to push their close range attacks against each other to see which one was stronger. It was a bit harder for Greninja since Serperior's Dragon Tail was a bit stronger than his Cut. The fact that his feet are being pushed back and are leaving a small trail of dirt is the evidence that proves this statement correct.
Greninja was starting to struggle a bit with as he was being pushed back by the Dragon Tail, he knew that he had to do something or else he might get hit by the purple glowing tail.
"Greninja, Back flip out of there."
Greninja did as he was told and quickly jumped out of the way of the Dragon Tail as it smashed into the Battlefield a second later when his Cut Attack stopped pushing against it. A cloud of dust kicked up due to the impact of the Dragon Tail hitting the Field.
"Use Hydro Pump."
"Counter it with Solar Beam."
Greninja brought his Hands together and started to charge up a blue Sphere of Water in his Hands. Meanwhile, Serperior was charging up a Sphere of yellow Aura in his Mouth. Once the two Attacks were ready the Pokemon fired their Beams at each other with all of their might! The Attacks raced towards each other as if they were in a Race to see who could reach their Destination first, and both met in the Middle. The impact of the Attacks colliding created a Shock wave that cause the Trainers, Referee and the closest people in the Audience cover their Eyes from the dust the Shock wave carried.
The beams of Water and Solar Aura were now pushing against each other in order to overcome the opposing Attack in hopes that it could land a hit the opposing Pokemon. Serperior had planted his tail into the ground in order to prevent himself from being pushed back by the Force of the Beam Struggle, Greninja on the other hand is sliding back as the Force of the Struggling Attacks had pushed him back and made his feet slide a few inches against the dirt.
The Beams kept on pushing against each other in order to overcome the other. And it seemed like the Solar Beam was starting to win out as it started to push the Hydro Pump back a bit and it started to struggle to get an even output. Greninja then took two steps forward, but struggled with that as well because of the Force that this Beam Struggle was giving off, but he still managed to take those two steps.
"Hang on, Greninja. You can win this!" cheered Ash.
Greninja was happy that Ash believed in him and then started to calm down a bit, then he push his Arms out even further and put more power into the Hydro Pump Attack, which caused it to push against the Solar Beam and it then made it even the struggle out as the Solar Beam was push back into it's original position and the two Attacks were now evenly matched again.
'We can't lost to a Water type that would be too embarrassing for me!' thought Trip.
"Serperior. Put more power into the Solar Beam." he called out.
Serperior powered up the Solar Beam even more and it grew larger than the Hydro Pump. This change in power caused it to push even harder against the Hydro Pump much easier as the Water Attack was being pushed back again!
"I know you can do this Greninja. Don't give up!" called out Ash.
"PIKA PIKA!" cheered Pikachu.
"PICHU!" cheered Pichu as he wanted to help cheer Greninja on as well.
Greninja put a but more power into the Hydro Pump as it also grew bigger, but it wasn't as big as the Solar Beam and it just slowed down the oncoming Grass type Attack. The Solar Beam kept on pushing against the Hydro Pump and was slowly overpowering it due to power and size. Greninja struggled to keep his Hydro Pump attack going, but Solar Beam was proving to be more than he could handle!
Solar Beam ended up being too much for him as it ended up winning the struggle and it hit Greninja head on. The Poor Water type was hit by the super effective move as he was blasted backwards from the powerful yellow beam the Serperior had shot at him.
"GRENINJA! NOOO!"
The Frog Pokemon sled against the ground until he was in front of Ash. He then started to get on his Hands and Knees before looking up up at Serperior, he was hurt, but he wasn't going to lose that easily. Not after all of the hard work they did together to prepare for this Fight. Ignoring the pain, Greninja got up and stood on his Feet again, ready to keep Fighting!
"Are you sure about this, Greninja?" Ash questioned his Pokemon about continuing on after getting hit by a powerful Attack.
Greninja turned his head and looked his Trainer in the Eye. Ash knew what the Water type was trying the told him, he smiled back as he gave Greninja a thumbs up.
"Hey Trip..." he called out.
Said person looked towards his direction and was confused, "What is it?" he asked.
"...Heal Serperior up again with Synthesis." replied Ash.
This caused most people to raise an Eyebrow at his Request. Why would he ask his opponent to make things harder for him if he's already struggling. He may have three more Pokemon than Trip does, but it would be best to keep all that advantages that he has in order to end this Battle quickly, so why ask for the opponent to heal himself to make it drag on longer?
"Suit yourself. Use Synthesis." Trip said with a smirk on his Face.
Serperior started to make his Body glow yellow to get more of this lost strength back. He started to heal from the glowing Aura in his body as it helped his get better again. Once the glowing stopped, he was back to normal as if the previous Battles never happened.
"I hope you don't regret this decision later on." Trip said with the smirk still on his Face.
"I won't." replied Ash. He then grabbed both Pikachu and Pichu and gently put them on the ground next to him. He smiled at the two Mice Pokemon, before reaching into his pocket and pulling out a piece of blue Cloth. He then started to wrap it around his Eyes Blindfolding himself so that he couldn't see what the others where doing.
"What are you doing?" asked Trip. He pretty much asked that question for everyone in the Audience who had no idea what Ash was up to. He was making things even harder for himself now than before. How is he going to win this Battle if he couldn't see what his opponent was doing!?
"I want to show you exactly who your dealing with! I'm not just another ordinary Trainer. I have special abilities that very few Pokemon Trainers have, as my Fight with Gary was a display of one of them, and now I'm about show off another one and show you that you picked the wrong guy to mess with!" Ash replied.
Ash and Greninja both got into the same position with their arms bend and fist closed. The two of them closed their eyes for a moment, before opening their eyes again for Ash to give out the order.
"Let's do this, Greninja!" he called out.
(Naruto Shippuden: My Name Theme)
A powerful Vortex of Water started to surround Greninja as he was now inside of it and no longer visible to anyone. The inside of the Vortex then began to glow brightly, the same kind of glowing that happens when a Pokemon is evolving. But Greninja didn't have another form to evolve into, did it?!
'What is happening!' Trip said in his mind. He was now scared of what was going on right now with Ash's Kalos Pokemon!
The water vortex kept on spinning and spinning until the bright light suddenly started glowing brighter and caused the Vortex to suddenly explode. This then revealed Greninja with a much different appearance than before!
His skin was now a lighter shade of blue, while his Face gained red Stripes and his Cheeks and Ears turned black, changing shape to resemble Ash's hair. Finally, he had a giant Water Shuriken on his Back.
This is a form that Ash and Greninja discovered that is able to make Greninja stronger because their bond reached the limit. This form is called Ash-Greninja!
(Song End)
(In the Audience)
"Hmmm..."
"Is something wrong, Naruto?" asked Asuna.
"Nothing important, but I can't help but feel like that someone just used something that belongs to me without my permission." replied the blonde ninja.
Asuna wondered what he could be talking about, "I'm sure it's nothing to worry about." she assured him.
"Your probably right, but I still can think of what it could be." Naruto decided to stop thinking about it and just enjoy the rest of the Battle, because it looked like it was about to end in a few minutes anyway!
(Back on the Battlefield)
Everyone that had no idea what had happened to Greninja stood frozen in Shock and Fear. Trip was the only one one that had Fear in his emotions right now, because he had no clue what happened to the Frog Pokemon in front of him and Serperior right now, or if it gave Greninja a boost in power. He was about to find out!
"U-Use Solar Beam."
Serperior somehow managed to overcome his Shock from this turn of events and opened his Mouth to gather yellow Aura into a Sphere that was preparing to fire it.
"Massive Water Fuma Shuriken!" called out Ash.
Ash-Greninja took the Water Shuriken off of his Back and held it up high as it started to spin rapidly and grow larger as more Water was added to it. Not only that, but it also changed color as well. It went from blue to and light orange as he was now fulled charged and ready to be launched. All that Ash needed to do was wait for when Trip and Serperior were ready.
"Ready..." Ash called out.
"Aim..." called out Trip.
"FIRE!"
We those three words now spoken the Pokemon obeyed. Serperior fired the Solar Beam as it flew though the Air towards Ash-Greninja. While Ash-Greninja tossed the Massive Water Fuma Shuriken at the oncoming Solar Beam. Time just seemed to slow down for everyone that was watching (Except Ash, since he's Blindfolded) as the two Attacks flew towards each other. Everything seemed to go about a second slower than usual and it all happened too fast for anyone to react.
The orange Water Shuriken sliced right through the Solar Beam and it canceled it out. Once that was done, it headed straight towards Serperior at break neck speed and all that Trip, Serperior and the rest of the Audience could do was watch as it happened in less three two seconds. Serperior was hit by the Water Shuriken!
*BOOM!*
.
.
.
.
.
.
All were silence. No one made a sound as they saw an giant dust cloud cover the whole Battlefield. No one could see the Pokemon, Trainers or Referee in the cloud, all they could do was wait until it faded away.
*Cough*
*Cough*
*Cough*
Trip's lungs were pushing the dusty Air out of his lungs by coughing in order to do so. He looked around to see that the dust cloud was the biggest one that had been created Today during all three Battles!
"Serperior. Can you hear me?!" he called out.
There was no answer. So he decided to look down at the Battlefield to get an answer there, and he did. Serperior was laying down on the ground and had swirly eyes, which meant that he was knocked out and had lost the Battle.
The Referee had found his way through the dust cloud and saw Serperior out cold, "Serperior is unable to battle. All of Trip's Pokemon had been defeated, meaning that the winner of this battle is Ash Ketchum!"
The second that those words had left his Mouth the Audience started to cheer loudly for the Announcement of the Victor. Ash did it! He won three Battles in a row against the top Trainers of the School.
Trip couldn't believe that he had lost. Just like the last two opponents that Ash had faced earlier he lost. Not only did he loss, but it was against a majority of Ash's Kanto Pokemon. He had spend a long time looking down upon Kanto, that he just realized that five of his six Pokemon were defeated by Pokemon from said Region. He really couldn't talk badly about Kanto now after what just happened Today.
"Hey, where'd they go?" shouted a random member of the Audience.
Trip looked up from his fallen Pokemon to see just what that person was talking about. Ash was gone?! And not just Ash, Pikachu, Greninja, Pichu, all of them just vanished?!
When the giant dust cloud cleared up everyone could see it as well, Ash had disappeared. However, there was Letter on the ground that the Referee walked towards and picked it up to read it.
What a way to spend Friday afternoon, huh.
I'll see ya all on Monday!
Sincerely, Ash Ketchum
P.S: AM Warriors Rule!
(Outside the Schoolyard)
Ash now had the Blindfold off and was walking back Home with his Family. He had recalled Greninja and now had Pikachu on his Shoulder and Pichu on top of his Hat. He felt proud about how Today's events played out and hoped that his three opponent will learn something from Today.
"We did great out there, didn't we, buddy?" he asked Pikachu.
"(We sure did. That will teach those jerks not to mess with us again!)" replied the yellow Mouse Pokemon.
"I just hope I didn't crush their spirits too much. I just wanted them to learn that being strong doesn't mean you should use that strength to hurt others." sighed the Pokemon Trainer.
"If they end up feeling bad about Today, then they can only blame themselves for trying to act all high and mighty to begin with. It was bound to happen sooner or later" Dan assured him.
"You were awesome Today, Ash! Those jerks won't be bothering you again after that!" smiled Natsu as he wrapped his left arm around Ash.
"Thanks guys. But with that out of the way, now we need to focus all of our time into preparing for the 'New York Martial Arts Tournament'. So that we can see just how strong we are compared to the other fighters in this City!"
Pan smiled at Ash's words. Even after he had just gotten back from an Adventure or Challenge he was always ready for the next one. It's been like this ever since Ash became a Trainer. He'd going to a new Region to start a Journey to help himself in reaching his goal of becoming a Pokemon Master, come Home after his Journey was done with new Pokemon, stay at Home with the Family for a few months to help protect the City, or just be a Teenager, and then it repeats all over again.
These seven kids had help keep New York and the World from falling into disaster many times and no one knew because the credit goes to Authorities. But to them, it's just another stepping stone needed to step on in order to reach their Dreams. Now that the Martial Arts Tournament is quickly approving it will be their chance to see if they had improve in their combat abilities!
'The Tournament will be interesting, that is for certain!' Pan thought to himself.
DONE!
After a long wait I have finally finished his Chapter and had finished all of Ash's Battles at School. Now with the Introduction Arc done, we can now enter the New York Martial Arts Tournament Arc.
But this time you'll have to wait again as I plan on catching up with some of my other Stories that other people like so much. But you won't need to wait as long as you did for all three School Battles, because I'll be making the Chapters shorter so that they can be completed and edited in a much shorter time frame.
I hope that all three of Ash's School Battle were enjoyable. Tell me which one was your Favorite, What you liked about it, And Which Match ups you Enjoyed the most. It will help me do better in the future for next time.
Until then, I'll see ya later!
