Aichi woke up on a bed. His eyes widened , he was unable to move his body. "Where am I?" Aichi thought.

"You've woken up, I see." Void said. Aichi started to feel the numbness of his body leave, he sat up. He held his forehead trying to remember what happened.

"What happened to me?" Aichi thought.

"You lost the battle and now you will obey my every order." Void answered.

Aichi was surprised. "Void can hear, what I'm thinking…" He thought.

"Correct, that is how I'll be able to keep you on your leash. There is nothing you can hide from me and all of your actions will required my consent. That is what happens to these who defy me and lose to me." Void explained.

"I'm in control of your body at the moment. I'll let you use your body sometimes, but I won't accept any rebellion." Void informed. Aichi sat on the side of his bed, his room was dark he felt extra weak while inside the darkness.

"What are you going to do with me?" Aichi asked.

"I haven't planned anything for you, but I'm surprised that even while being exposed to this much darkness, you are still able to control yourself. All other humans in your world would have fallen under my control by this point." Void answered, Aichi gritted his teeth. "You don't have to worry, that would come in time."

"You're speaking as if I want to be controlled by you." Aichi responded.

"Since you're being such a good boy, how about I allow you to control your body for now? I would like you to observe your world with your own eyes." Void suggested. Darkness covered the room and the next thing Aichi saw, he was sitting on a throne in the United Sanctuary castle.

"Cray is different…" Aichi said. "This darkness… I don't feel any of the light that I felt last time."

"Of coarse, Sendou. Their protector, their king fell to me. After that, darkness befell the world." Void explained. "There is no saving your world now."

"So… How about you give up? Just like everyone else in your world?" Void whispered in Aichi's ear.

"My friends wouldn't give up easily." Aichi responded.

"Right... Then explain. Where us the light in this world? I will distinguish your light now." Void grinned. Darkness began to spread into Aichi's bright eyes.

"But… This can't be the end…" Aichi thought.

"Oh, it is. Be the puppet that represents my desires in this world. I've already made up my mind on which world is next for me to prey on. I think you know of it, you've been staying there for a while." Void replied.

"Ash's world…" Aichi muttered.

"Right you are. I'm sure it is fine with you if I leave you to represent me here while I go and take over another world." Void asked. It was testing how much control it had over Aichi.

"You want to leave this world to me…?" Aichi responded soullessly.

"Yes. All I want you to say is 'I don't guard'." Void answered.

"I don't guard... But why...?" Aichi thought, his consciousness was hazy.

"I… Don't…" Aichi started.

"Aichi! The fight isn't over!" Kai shouted. It snapped Aichi out of it and found himself back in the cardfight.

He looked around surprised and saw Kai in his spirit form to the side. "Huh? Kai?" Aichi asked.

"Snap out of it! You were muttering to yourself and you almost declared that you weren't going to guard. Are you back in the game yet?!" Kai replied.

"Yea, thank you Kai." Aichi thanked as he turned back to the battle.

"Toshiki Kai, how dare you meddle with me!" Void shouted angrily.

"Your tricks won't work on me anymore, Void!" Aichi said. He took his final guardable cards to guard against Void's attack. "Thank you, Kai. I owe you one."

"Don't mention it, just win this fight." Kai responded.

"My Vanguard, please. You will need to use me to win this fight. Because of your ascension as king, I've acquired a new form." Blaster Blade informed. The table changed and opened a new zone on the table.

"What's this? A G zone?" Aichi asked.

"No! With that?!" Void exclaimed.

"Yes, My Vanguard. Use the stride to claim your victory." Blaster Blade said.

Aichi picked up the one of cards and looked at it. "Royal Guard, Blaster Blade Saviour?" Aichi read. "It's a grade four. Like Omega Loop Glendios and Harmonics Messiah."

"Go for it, Aichi." Kai cheered.

"Right, I'll do it now." Aichi replied. He took the Alfred XIV in his hand and put it on into the Drop zone. "Stride Generation!" Aichi declared. "Ride, Royal Guard, Blaster Blade Saviour!"

"I'm using Blaster Blade Saviours skill." Aichi said. He flipped two of the three Blaster Blade Saviours left in his G zone. "All of my rear guards return to the deck and my forces get reassembled." Blaster Blade, Thing Saver Dragon, Marron, Epona and Loving Healer appeared on the field.

"My omega locks!" Void exclaimed. "I won't allow you to do this!"

"Thanks to this ability, all my rear guards get +5000 power and Blaster Blade Saviour gains 1 critical." Aichi explained. "This is the end! With support from Epona, Blaster Blade attacks."

"Guard!" Void only had 3 cards in its hand and Aichi knew what they all were. And Aichi knew that Void didn't have enough to guard against him.

"With support from Marron, Blaster Blade Saviour has the final attack!"

"Sendou!" Void shouted angrily.

"Tripled drive." Aichi said. Modoron, Marron and Hallowed Breath Dragon. "Two critical triggers... Criticals go to Blaster Blade Saviour, power goes to Thing Saver Dragon."

"No!" Void shouted. The light around Void glew brighter and the final damage landed on Void's damage zone. "No!"

"With that, the seal is complete and you will fall to slumber. I wished that we could've taken a different path, but… I guess it wasn't meant to be." Aichi said.

"Don't give me sympathy, Aichi Sendou!" Void responded. It's form was surrounded by light and chains and crystallized around Void's form. Aichi was released and fell on the ground after being weaken from exposure to the darkness.

"Aichi!" Kai called. He turned to see the light disappearing and a large crystal with Void encased inside the blue transparent crystal.

"You've saved the world once more, My Vanguard. Congratulations." Blaster Blade kneeling in front of Aichi in his Blaster Blade Saviour form.

"It is really all thanks to you and Kai." Aichi responded with a smile. He was trembling. "That fight took a lot out of me, I can't stop shaking."

"My Vanguard, you must return to your body. You use too much energy remaining here in your spirit form." Blaster Blade informed.

"Right… I also created that seal and battle to my absolute fullest. That means that I need to go back to the other world then." Aichi agreed.

"Come back soon, alright Aichi?" Kai asked.

"I will. Just give me a few more days." Aichi answered as his spirit began to disappear.


~Meanwhile: Morning of the Next Day (Pokemon World)~

Ash, Clemont, Serena and Bonnie woke up to see Aichi still asleep.

"At this rate, Aichi won't be able to make it to his match." Clemont commented.

"Maybe Professor Sycamore can do something to delay Aichi's battle. It isn't fair if Aichi gets disqualified when it isn't his fault." Bonnie suggested.

"I'll go find Professor Sycamore." Serena said.

"We'll go with her. The more people searching, the quicker we'll find him. Ash, you stay here and see if Aichi wakes up." Clemont said. They all left leaving Ash to watch over Aichi. They had two and a half hours to find and explain everything to Professor Sycamore and hope there is enough time left to make the change.

"Excuse me, do you know where Professor Sycamore is?" Serena asked an employee working in the Kalos League security.

"He left the building a little while ago. He should be back by the beginning match." The employee informed.

"I see, but I need to speak with him now." Serena replied disappointed.

"Serena, what a surprise. Is something the matter?" Diantha asked approaching the back building entrance.

"Oh! Diantha. Perfect timing, Aichi won't be able to make it to his match just yet. I was hoping that you can delay his match until later today." Serena answered.

"What happened to Aichi?" Diantha asked.

"That is complicated but please! Make it so that Aichi's match is later in the day." Serena pleaded.

"We still have 2 hours, so I'll first tell the Kalos League organization group to make Aichi's battle last. But I'll go with you to see Aichi, so that I can get some explanations." Diantha agreed.

"Okay. Thank you, Diantha." Serena thanked.

"If Aichi still can't make it to the match if his match is last, then I'm afraid we'll have to disqualify him from the competition. After lunch will be the semi finals and please understand that we have a schedule we need to follow." Diantha explained.

"We've done all we can for Aichi. I guess it is up to him now to be ready to battle." Serena said. She waited outside as Diantha walked into the group meeting room and discussed about the recent turn of events.

Diantha opened the door for Serena. "I'm afraid that they would like you to explain what happened." Diantha informed.

Serena nodded, Lysandre was on one screen and another was Professor Sycamore, there were two more screens, but Serena didn't recognize them. In Lysandre's screen, she spotted Alain to the side.

"Thank you for your consideration. I'm afraid last night, Aichi fell into some kind of strange sleep and he hasn't been able to wake up yet. But please, give him a chance to battle." Serena pleaded.

"Do you know the cause of this coma?" Lysandre asked.

Serena was hesitant in answering any questions regarding Aichi's personal secrets. "Actually, about that… You see, Aichi isn't originally from this world… And he is from a different world where Pokemon doesn't exist. But for some reason, he was brought here. Since then, he gets forced to returns back to his original world sometimes; whether forced or intentional, which makes him fall into these strange comas where we can't wake him up until his spirit returns here." She explained as best she can.

Lysandre was the first to answer. "I understand, I accept your proposal to delay Aichi Sendou's match. Does anyone disagree?" He asked. Everyone nodded their heads.

"Thank you." Serena thanked.

"Everything is set, so all we need to do now is hope the sleeping beauty will wake up." Diantha said as she guided Serena to the exit.

"You aren't going to come see Aichi?" Serena asked.

"I already heard what was going on, please make sure Aichi makes it to his battle. Someone as talented as him should be able to reach far in the Kalos League. I'm sure he'll be able to rise up to the challenge, battling Alain that is. The two favourites to win battling in the semi finals instead of the finals, what a shame." Diantha explained.

"It is strange, both Alain and Aichi made a promise to Ash to meet in the finals. I wonder who will pull through." Serena wondered. The screens appeared making an announcement for all.

"Attention, remaining competitors of the Kalos League and audience members. There has been a slight change in the battle schedule due to unexpected circumstances. The match between Aichi Sendou and Remo will be delayed to become the final match of the quarter finals. The remaining matches will continue as in order. Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience." The announcer explained reading off of a paper.

"Thank you for everything, Diantha. I should get back to the hotel." Serena said waving at Diantha before running to the hotel.

At the practice field, Lysandre was speaking with Alain. "I wish you luck, Alain. I want you to defeat Aichi if you meet in the semi finals. With that defeat, we will get that much closer to our goal." Lysandre said.

Alain found it strange, Lysandre sounded almost anxious. He was never told to defeat a specific person. "I wasn't planning on losing. But, why are you so eager for me to defeat Aichi?" Alain asked.

"It is nothing in particular, I heard you haven't battled with Aichi Sendou. Saying as though he comes from another world, I would guess that he is leaving back to his world soon, I want the first and final battle between you two to be decided as you as a victor. Defeating him will create an immense amount of Mega Evolution energy." Lysandre explained, there was a hint of worry in his voice.

"Right. I will do my best." Alain answered. Lysandre left him to be and went to his VIP spectating room the was recently built for him to watch the Kalos League. "Something wasn't right with Lysandre, it was almost like something big is going to happen if I defeat Aichi. Maybe… Defeating him will give the amount of Mega Evolution energy still needed."

The matches started and Alain's battle was first. He swept the battle with ease and the Kalos League matches moved on. It was the battle between Tierno and Sawyer, the match before Aichi's. Ash did his absolute best to stall for Aichi and Tierno and Sawyer were trying to do the same. But it seemed to have been in vain.

Serena watched the match and frequently glanced over to Aichi to see if he was awake. "Come on, Aichi. You need to wake up now." Serena said.

At that point, Aichi's eyes slowly opened. Serena suddenly had a burst of joy. "Aichi great! You're awake!"

"Serena, what's going-?" Aichi didn't even finish his sentence before Serena pulled his hand with her to the stadium.

"There is no time to talk. We managed to delay your match as long as possible, but you need to get there now." Serena said. There was a 5 minute break between matches and Aichi woke up right when Sawyer and Tierno's match ended. The hotel was about a 10 minute walk from the arena.

"Where is Azelf?" Aichi asked.

"Azelf stayed up the entire night waiting for you to wake up. It is asleep right now." Serena answered.

"Oh, I must've caused all of you trouble." Aichi replied.

"No! We just need to hurry." Serena responded. They reached the entrance to the waiting rooms.

Aichi made it just in time for his match. "I made it! But I didn't get to prepare or warm-up. And my opponent sounds pretty strong too. I need to focus. At least my worries for Cray are gone now." Aichi thought.

He walked out to the stadium and found Remo already standing there waiting. "There is the man of the hour. Now, this is the final quarter final match between Aichi and Remo." The announcer said.

The stadium revealed itself to be a dessert. With a lot of rocks. Remo release Rhyhorn and Aichi released Glaceon.

"This will be a three on three match. Any substitutions are allowed for both trainers at any given time. Battle begin." The referee said.

"Rhypoo! Stone Edge!" Remo ordered.

"Glaceon, jump from rock to rock to dodge." Glaceon gracefully dodged it perfectly and Rhypoo hit many rocks and was recovering. "Freeze the ground."

Glaceon used Ice Beam up in the sky and the Ice Beam dropped to the ground changing the stadium into a frozen dessert. "Wow! Glaceon changed the stadium into a ice biome." The announcer said in amazement. The crowd cheered loudly.

"Wow! That looks like something out of a Pokemon Showcase." Shauna commented.

"Now that I think about it. At night, Aichi would get up and train all night. There was a day when I watched him and all he was doing was practicing with Glaceon shooting Ice Beams in the sky." Serena remembered.

Rhypoo was stuck to the frozen floor. "Rhypoo, get out of there with Earthquake."

"Glaceon, jump the highest rock and leap up. Use Ice Beam below you as the earthquake settles." Aichi was watching carefully. "Now."

Glaceon used Ice Beam, did a flip and landed on her feet just fine. He and Glaceon practice landing on ice while adventuring in Snowbelle City. "Right! Follow up with Blizzard!" Before even Remo can react, Rhypoo was hit by Blizzard and frozen in ice.

"Now is our chance, Hyper Beam." Aichi knew that Hyper Beam takes time to charge, but with the ice it buys Glaceon more than enough time to charge up and fire accurately.

"Rhypoo! Break out of there!" Remo shouted.

But it was too late, Glaceon shot the Hyper Beam and Rhyhorn was sent flying to the wall fainting there. Glaceon ran to Aichi's side.

"You did well, Glaceon. Do you think you can still battle? Or do you want to get some rest? We have a match against Alain later today if we win, so I don't want you to be worn out." Aichi asked.

Glaceon looked tired after using Hyper Beam and Ice Beam and running around. "Glaceon~"

"Right. Get some rest them." Aichi said with a smile. He took out one of his Pokeballs.

Remo and Aichi smiled at each other. Both of them knew what was coming and their Key Stones shines from the sun's rays.

"Go, Garchoo!"

"Go, Charizard!" They declared at the same time.

"I guess, great minds think alike." Aichi said.

"Let's start with Mega Evolved Pokemon from the start, how about that?" Remo suggested.

"That was just what I was thinking." Aichi agreed.

"Garchoo, Mega Evolve!" Remo said.

"Charizard, it is time to reveal your final form! Mega Evolve!" Aichi said. Both Pokemon Mega Evolved.

"Mega Charizard and Mega Garchomp. It will be a treat to watch everyone." The announcer said excited.

"Battle begin!"

"Charizard, fly up in the air." Aichi said. Charizard quickly jumped in the air and flew.

"Garchoo, Draco Meteor!"

"I thought you'd do that." Aichi said, Charizard dodged all of the meteors with ease. "Charizard, knock the meteors out of it's course with Flamethrower."

The meteor were now moving to Garchoo. "Dodge it!"

"Charizard get up close and use Dragon Claw." The Dragon Claw successfully made contact with Garchomp.

"Garchomp, Dragon Rush!" Remo commanded without any hesitation. Dragon Rush pushed Charizard all the way to the wall and smashed him into it.

"Charizard, Flamethrower." Charizard was charging his Flamethrower.

"Garchomp, Dragon Claw." Garchomp it Charizard with Dragon Claw, but it didn't stop Charizard from using Flamethrower.

"Both of them are heavily damaged. I guess it is as good as time as ever to use that move…" Aichi thought. "Alright! Charizard, use Seismic Toss."

Charizard lifted Garchomp up in the air. "Garchoo, knock him off with Dragon Rush." Garchomp tried but Charizard's raw strength was too strong, Garchomp was thrown down on the ground causing dust to cover the field.

Aichi shielded his eyes. "Was is enough?" He wondered as he looked closely at the battlefield.

"Which one of these Mega Evolved Pokemon won?" The announcer said in anticipation. The smoke cleared and both Charizard and Garchomp were standing, but barely. Garchomp fell over and the Mega Evolution disappeared.

"Garchoo!" Remo called. Charizard stopped his mega evolution and flew to Aichi. As he reached Aichi, he dropped and almost fell over onto Aichi. Aichi held onto him to keep him from falling.

"You did great, Charizard. Get some rest alright?" Aichi said.

"Charizard~" Aichi returned Charizard to his Pokeball and pulled out Manectric's Pokeball.

"Remo's Garchomp was definitely stronger than I expected. I've only seen Remo's Garchomp and Rhydon, but I also know he has a Pelipper. But what are the odds of it being it? Please, Manectric. Do this for me." Aichi thought holding the Pokeball. "Alright! It's your turn, Manectric!"

"Go Pelipper!" Remo said. They both announced and threw the Pokeballs at the same time.

"Aichi predicted Pelipper?!" Trevor exclaimed.

"That means, Aichi will have a very big advantage! Pelipper is a flying and water-type and Manectric is an electric-type." Clemont said.

"I should've expected that you would be able to predict my next Pokemon. I should've changed my line up, I didn't really expect you to be this strong. I guess that is my fault for underestimating you." Remo commented.

"Thank you for the compliment, but I underestimated you as well." Aichi answered. They smiled at each other, accepting and understanding each other's power and strength.

When the battle ended, Aichi was victorious. They went to the center of the battlefield and shook hands. "That was a great battle, you really made my Pokemon fight to their limits." Aichi commented.

"You are a fine trainer. You better win the League, you beat me after all." Remo replied.

Aichi laughed a little. "I'll try, but my next opponent is really strong." He said.

"You have the skills, I've battled Alain before, but I was unable to defeat him. Watch your back." Remo warned.

"I will, thank you." Aichi responded.

They released their handshake and left the stadium.

"Charizard took far too much damaged to fight Alain's Charizard at full strength." Aichi thought as he walked out of the arena, he waited at the arena exit for Serena, Ash, Clemont and Bonnie.

"Aichi, I see you are feeling well." Someone said from behind him, Aichi turned to see Diantha walking to him.

"Oh, Diantha. Were you the one that helped change the match order?" Aichi asked.

"Yes, I was, but there is no need to thank me. I'm just glad, you were able to make it just in time." Diantha responded.

"Right. But thank you anyways." Aichi thanked.

"Aichi!" His group called.

"Are you feeling awake yet?" Ash asked.

"Yes, I am actually." Aichi answered with a giggle.

"Your performance was great, but it wasn't as clean as your usual battles." Clemont commented.

"I know, I guess I was a little exhausted. It might've seemed like I was getting a lot of sleep, but really, I feel really tired." Aichi explained. "Everything should be okay from now on."

"That's great. How about we have lunch and maybe, Aichi can get some much needed rest? Rest is important, though your physical state is in perfect health, your mental state is just as important." Clemont taught.

"Clemont is right, after eating lunch there will be 4 hours to rest and prepare yourselves until the semi final matches start. So it will be a lot of time for you to sleep without any disturbance." Diantha informed.

"Oh, that's right! There is a lot of time before the semifinals." Ash remembered. "That means… Some special training before I face Sawyer!"

"Make sure, your Pokemon are still fired up for the battle okay, Ash?" Aichi responded drowsily.

"You don't need to tell met that, Aichi. Even with all the special training we're going to do, everyone is still going to be fired up!" Ash answered.

"If you say so Ash. Maybe your excitement for the match will transfer to your Pokemon." Serena commented.

"You said it!" Ash said. He ran off to one of the practice fields.

At that point, Aichi was barely keeping his eyes open. He was about to fall over, but Diantha's Gardevoir used Psychic before he hit the floor.

"He is fast asleep alright. He can rest in the Pokemon Center, since his Pokemon needs care from Nurse Joy there anyways." Diantha suggested. They went to the Pokemon Center and Gardevoir slowly laid Aichi on a bench in the Pokemon Center. Diantha took the liberty to give Aichi's Pokeballs to Nurse Joy.

"I hope Aichi gets enough rest to battle Alain at full power." Bonnie said.

"I think he'll be fine. Aichi always pulls through." Serena assured.

Azelf snuggled beside Aichi. "You can enjoy your time in Lumiose City. I can make sure he makes it to his match on time." Nurse Joy suggested.

"Nurse Joy, are you sure? I wouldn't want to disturb you from your work." Serena asked.

"Yes, it is just fine. Just enjoy yourselves." Nurse Joy assured.

"Thank you, Nurse Joy. I wanted to check out some Pokemon costume stores. Do any of you want to come?" Serena asked.

"Oh! I want to come!" Bonnie agreed.

"I was thinking of going to the gym to see how Clembot is doing. Clembot didn't seem to have come to watch the Kalos League, so I wanted to check out the gym." Clemont said.

"Then it's settled, we'll leave Aichi in your capable hands, Nurse Joy." Diantha agreed.

"Right, enjoy yourselves." Nurse Joy repeated as they left. Aichi continued to lay there unconscious.

As three hours past, someone approached Aichi and placed something on Aichi's pants. It was so small that no one, not even Aichi would be able to notice it. The person left. Thirty minutes before it was time for the first match of the semi finals, Aichi woke up. He felt refreshed.

"How long have I been asleep?" Aichi asked himself as he got up. He noticed that Azelf was asleep beside him. Aichi held Azelf in his arms similar to how someone would hold a baby. "Azelf, thank you for being by my side this entire time." He smiled looking at Azelf.

"Oh, you're awake. How are you feeling?" Nurse Joy asked. She went to the back.

"I'm feeling refreshed, where is everyone else?" Aichi asked.

"They went to their own adventures in Lumiose City." Nurse Joy answered. She brought out a tray of food for Aichi. "Here, you haven't eaten anything today right? That isn't good for your health."

She leaned down from the counter as Aichi began to eat. She took out another tray containing four Pokeballs.

"Thank you, Nurse Joy." Aichi thanked.

"Your Pokemon are at full health and ready for your semi final match with Alain." Nurse Joy informed. Aichi was finishing up the food.

"I better get going then, I will have to talk about strategy with my team before my match." Aichi said, he ran off to the waiting room.

"Slow down! Don't run after eating!" Nurse Joy shouted.

"Okay!" Aichi responded. "I need to win this battle. If I don't, what will happen to Mew?"

He reached his waiting room and released all his Pokemon. "Alright, it is time to get serious. We need to beat Alain to save Mew. At this time, all of us can't think of losing, instead think of how we're going to win." He said.

"Charizard~!"

Aichi looked serious. "So you want to face Alain's Charizard and get some revenge." Aichi responded. Charizard waited for the answer with anticipation. Then Aichi smiled. "Alright, I'll leave Alain's Charizard to you then."

"Charizard~!" Charizard cheered.

"Alright, so after watching Alain's matches, I've only been able to see two of Alain's Pokemon; Metagross and Charizard. So that puts us in a small disadvantage. Alain hasn't needed to reveal any of his other Pokemon, I had to use each and every one of you to keep everyone as close to full health mentally and physically as possible." Aichi explained.

"Glaceon~"

"Azumarill~"

"Charizard~"

"Manectric~"

"No, none of you did anything wrong. I was thinking of saving Azumarill for Alain's Charizard and have Charizard handle Metagross. But I understand Charizard's resolve to fight Alain's Charizard. Charizard you made me realize that a Mega Evolved Pokemon versus a Non-Mega Evolved Pokemon will put you in a disadvantage even though you are strong against fire types." Aichi explained.

"Azumarill~"

"I'm sure I will need to use all of you, so don't worry. Everyone has their part." Aichi assured. "I'm sure there are other Pokemon that I'll need your abilities Azumarill."

"Azumarill~!" Azumarill jumped on Aichi hugging him.

"I'm being serious, Azumarill. I'm sure you'll do well." Aichi responded with a laugh. He looked at the clock of the waiting room and the screen at the side of the entrance turned on. "Alright, all of you. Do your best."

All his Pokemon cheered before they were returned to their Pokeballs. When all his Pokemon were in their Pokeballs, Aichi put on his game face and started walking through the hallway to the stadium. When he got out, he was met with Alain.

Alain noticed how serious Aichi looked. 'What is with that look?" Alain thought. "He is more serious than normal."

"I will not lose this battle. No matter how much of a disadvantage I have, I can not lose." Aichi reminded himself.

"The semi finals have finally come! It is time for the top four trainers to battle. The winner of this battle will move to the finals. Let's hear how excited you are to watch the match up between Aichi and Alain!" The announcer said enthusiastically.

"This will be a full battle. This is a special battle because competitor, Aichi only has four Pokemon so it will be a 6 vs 4. When all of one side's Pokemon is unable to battle, the battle will be finished. The stadium will change every time a Pokemon faints." The referee said. They both took out their first Pokeballs and the stadium changed to an ocean stadium.

"Azumarill, you're up first!" Aichi said sending out Azumarill.

"Unfezant!"

"Battle begin!"

"Unfezant, Air Slash."

"Azumarill, Surf in the water. And use Ice Beam." Azumarill dodged the Air Slash with ease and launched the Ice Beam at Unfezant.

"Unfezant, Steel Wing while taking the Ice Beam!" Alain ordered.

"What?! Ice Beam is super effective on Unfezant, that doesn't sound like something Alain would do." Clemont said.

Unfezant took the Ice Beam and the Steel Wing hit and the ice did more damage on Azumarill.

"Dive in the water for cover and use Aqua Ring while inside." Aichi knew that Azumarill took a lot of damage from that attack. Azumarill jumped in the water and a ring of water circled around Azumarill healing her.

"Hiding in the water won't stall me for long. Air Slash!" Alain ordered.

"Bubble Beam at 2 o'clock!" The Bubble Bleam and Air Slash clashed and smoke appeared. Unfezant was pretty close to the water. "Hydro Pump at 1 o'clock!" Aichi closed his eyes and tried sensing Unfezant's aura.

"Get out of there!" Alain ordered. It was already too late, the Hydro Pump hit and Unfezant was heavily damaged. "Hold out a little longer, Steel Wing at the point the Hydro Pump came from, now!"

Azumarill just emerged from the water and was met with a Steel Wing to the face. "Azumarill!" Aichi called. Both Unfezant and Azumarill fainted on a small piece of land above water.

"Thank you, Azumarill. Leave everything to everyone else. You did well." Aichi said as he returned Azumarill to her Pokeball.

"Wow! That was a really high paced battle." Sawyer exclaimed.

"I was barely able to keep up with it and I'm just watching the battle." Trevor agreed.

"Aichi's in a bad spot. His first Pokemon is already out and he still has to defeat five more of Alain's Pokemon." Clemont said.

The next stadium was a dessert. "Tyranitar, you're up!" Alain said. The Sandstorm raged.

"Glaceon!"

"This match up, Aichi's Glaceon handled Remo's Rhydon just fine. This is similar to that match up, but Alain is more skilled." Sawyer analyzed.

"The same strategy won't work as well on Alain. I'm sure Alain is watched that battle." Aichi thought.

"Aichi's strength with Glaceon is using his opponent's moves against them. So I will let him make the first move." Alain thought.

"Battle begin!"

No one made a move, everyone was silent.

"Why aren't they make any moves?"

"I wonder why."

"Why aren't they doing anything?" Tierno asked.

"Aichi and Glaceon's strength is using their opponent's moves against themselves. So Alain is forcing Aichi to make the moves." Clemont explained.

"Alright then, Glaceon jump to that rock and use Ice Beam"

"Tyranitar, Stone Edge." Tyranitar charged the Stone Edge and charged at Glaceon. The Ice Beam was split and Tyranitar kept moving forward.

"Alright! Now, jump past Tyranitar and use Iron Tail." Graceon jumped up and over Tyranitar. The Iron Tail was being charged right above Tyranitar. Glaceon did a complete flip over and hit the Iron Tail right on Tyranitar on the head.

Glaceon was being affected by the Sandstorm. "Alright! Now's our chance, use Hail to replace the Sandstorm." Glaceon summoned Hail and the Sandstorm disappeared.

"Tyranitar, Dark Pulse."

"Dodge it and use Blizzard." Aichi ordered. The Dark Pulse was dodged and the Blizzard made contact with Tyranitar. "Tyranitar's speed is already slow, so adding the Hail it's even slower."

Tyranitar fainted and the Hail disappeared. Glaceon ran to Aichi. "You did well. That was a great performance, Glaceon." Aichi was brushing off the sand in her fur.

As the battle continued, the final Pokemon from each side was their Charizards.

"Looks like it comes to this." Aichi said. He took out Charizard's Pokeball and released him. Alain also released his Charizard.

"Key Stone respond to my heart! Beyond evolution, Mega Evolve!" Alain declared, his Charizard Mega Evolved into Mega Charizard X.

"Charizard, it's all up to you now! Let's go at them at full strength. Mega Evolve." Aichi said.

Both Charizards were fired up, they only battled once before and that one battle was inconclusive.

"Battle begin!"


Hey, guys.

How was your March Break? I had a great one; lots of relaxing and joy. Sadly, school is going to start tomorrow. T.T It was also Saint Patrick's Day on Friday, can't forget about that... But as always, I am never lucky.

About this chapter: Royal Guard,Blaster Blade Saviour. That was a card that I made up, it isn't real. It is funny actually, when I finished writing this chapter, I found out about the new legion deck 'The Blaster,"Aichi Sendou"', so that was pretty interesting...

I hope you enjoyed this chapter, the next chapter will be posted on March 26 2017.
