"So what will you be using for your second pokemon?" Misty asked.
"Uh... Sandshrew" Daisuke hesitated as Sandshrew appeared.
"Don't you know that ground types are weak against water types?" Misty asked.
"Sure do" Daisuke replied with confidence.
"Alright then, let's get this over with" Misty said confident.
"Staryu use Water Gun" Misty commanded, Staryu shot a burst of water towards Sandshrew.
"Sandshrew use Rapid Spin" Daisuke commanded, Sandshrew curled up spinning rapidly dodging the water gun and charged towards Staryu.
"Staryu use Water Gun continuously" Misty commanded, Staryu shot many burst of water at Sandshrew who was struggling to avoid them, finally one of the burst of water managed to hit Sandshrew causing him to fall on the platform.
"Now Staryu use Rapid Spin" Misty commanded, Staryu jumped in the air and spun rapidly hitting Sandshrew in the back causing it to fall in the water.
"Again" Misty commanded, Staryu then spun in the water hitting Sandshrew underwater causing it to fly back to the surface and land on the platform.
"Now finish it" Misty commanded, Staryu charged in for the final blow.
"Sandshrew grab Staryu" Daisuke quickly commanded, Sandshrew struggling managed to get up, Staryu was about to hit Sandshrew but Sandshrew grabbed Staryu stopping the Rapid Spin attack.
"WHAT!" Misty said in shock, Kite and Green were also shocked.
"Now use Focus Punch" Daisuke commanded, Sandshrew's fist started to glow and it hit Staryu in the core causing it to fly across the stadium and land in Misty's arms fainted.
"Staryu is unable to battle, victor goes to Sandshrew" the ref said
"Good job Sandshrew" Daisuke said, everyone was still in shock. "You may have beaten Staryu, but you won't be able to defeat Starmie" Misty said as Starmie appeared,
"Starmie use Rapid Spin" Misty commanded, Starmie spun rapidly towards Sandshrew.
"Sandshrew use Gyro Ball" Daisuke commanded, Sandshrew curled up and spun rapidly with a green ring surrounding its body towards Starmie, the two pokemon collided but Sandshrew barely managed to overpower Starmie.
"Alright now smash Starmie into the ceiling" Daisuke commanded, Sandshrew still in its Gyro Ball struck Starmie in the core and slamming it into the ceiling, Starmie started to fall back to the ground.
"NOW USE THE STRONGEST FOCUS PUNCH YOU GOT AND END THIS" Daisuke shouted, Sandshrew charged up his focus punch, Sandshrew punched Starmie in the core causing Starmie to fly towards the ground crashing behind Misty fainted.
"Sta... Sta... Starmie is unable to battle, victory goes to Sandshrew, and the victor of the battle is Daisuke the challenger" the ref said shocked.
"But how?" Misty wondered.
"Alright Sandshrew" Daisuke shouted giving Sandshrew a hug.
"That is one powerful Sandshrew" Misty complimented as she handed Daisuke the Cascade Badge.
"Thanks!" Daisuke shouted with joy, the others came up and congratulated Daisuke.
"Now its my turn" Kite said impatiently, "In one hour" Misty said.
"What?" Kite asked a little frustrated.
"I am hungry and my pokemon need some rest, so we will battle after lunch" Misty said.
"I thought you ate lunch?" Kite wondered.
"No, I wasn't hungry at the time" Misty said.
"Alright fine" Kite said a little down", the boys decided to go get food as well and headed to the Pokemon Center.
After they were done eating again and healing they headed back to the Cerulean Gym, they entered and were once again greeted by Misty.
"Are you ready Kite?" Misty asked.
"Are you ready?" Kite also asked.
Misty and Kite took their places and were ready to battle, "This will be a 2 0n 2 battle between Kite the challenger and Misty the gym leader, when both pokemon on either side are unable the match is over, in addition only the challenger may substitute pokemon" the ref said
"I will be using Staryu" Misty shouted.
"And I will be using Butterfree" Kite said.
"That thing?" Misty laughed.
"You bet" Kite said.
"Let the battle begin" the ref said
"Staryu use Rapid Spin" Misty commanded as Staryu spun rapidly towards Butterfree.
"Butterfree dodge" Kite commanded, Butterfree attempted to dodge but was easily it falling in the water.
"Butterfree!" Kite shouted getting ready to save the sinking Metapod, just then Butterfree shot out of the water.
"Butterfree?" Kite said shocked.
"Wow" Misty said shocked as well.
Just then Butterfree flapped its wings and two silver crescents shot towards Staryu striking it in the core.
"What was that?" Kite said amazed.
"That was razor wind" Daisuke quickly answered.
"Razor Wind? Sweet" Kite said.
"Staryu use Rapid Spin" Misty commanded.
"Butterfree use Razor Wind" Kite commanded, as Staryu was closing in Butterfree flapped its wings and two crescents shot towards Staryu.
The crescents struck Staryu causing it to crash into the ground.
"Staryu is unable to battle, victory goes to Butterfree" the ref said. "Darn it" Misty said as she recalled Staryu.
"Good Job Butterfree" Kite said.
"I will be using Starmie next" Misty said.
"Starmie use Water Pulse" Misty quickly commanded, before Kite could counter the ball of water struck Butterfree in the chest then exploding into a giant wave causing Butterfree to faint.
"Butterfree is unable to battle, victory goes to Starmie" the ref said.
"It's up to you Squirtle" Kite said, Squirtle appeared pumped and ready to battle.
"Kite why aren't you using Pikachu? He is an electric who is strong against water types" Daisuke wondered.
"Because, Blue said in order to become great, we must challenge ourselves" Kite started.
"If we don't challenge ourselves we will never be great, you beat Staryu and Starmie with a ground type, so I will win with another water type" Kite explained.
"Kite..." Green said as she stared at him.
"Well, then kick her butt!" Daisuke encouraged.
"You got it buddy" Kite said.
A song started to play in Kite's head that gave him even more motivation and confidence to win.
"Squirtle use Water Gun" Kite commanded.
"Starmie use Water Gun as well" Misty commanded, the two streams of water collided causing both pokemon to fall down.
"Starmie use Water Pulse" Misty commanded, Starmie shot a ball of water towards Squirtle.
"Squirtle use Withdraw" Kite commanded, two shells shot out of the ground and covered up Squirtle protecting him from the attack.
"Starmie use Rapid Spin" Misty commanded, Starmie hit Squirtle and caused him to fall on his back.
"Squirtle!" Kite shouted.
"Now use water pulse" Misty commanded, Starmie shot another blue ball of water towards the struggling Squirtle.
Just then Squirtle started to glow, when it was done glowing he took a new form stopping the attack by striking it with its tail which was covered in water.
"Did he just use Aqua Tail?" Misty wondered.
"Whoa! Squirtly evolved!" Kite said with amazement, the others looked in amazement.
"Wow! That's awesome!" Daisuke shouted with excitement.
"Wartortle, the turtle pokemon, it cleverly controls its furry ears and tail to maintain its balance while swimming" the poke dex said.
"Wow it also learned Aqua Tail" Kite said.
"Alright Wartortle use Aqua Tail" Kite commanded, streams of water spirals appeared around Wartortle's tail striking Starmie causing it to fly backwards.
"Starmie use Rapid Spin" Misty commanded.
"Wartortle use Rapid Spin as well" Kite commanded, the two pokemon collided and they both fell backwards each landing on a platform.
"Starmie quick use Water Gun" Misty quickly commanded, Starmie got up and shot a powerful stream of water towards Wartortle.
"Wartortle jump in the air and then use Aqua Tail" Kite countered, Wartortle jumped in the air dodging the water gun and struck Starmie in its core with its tail causing Starmie to hit against the wall.
"Starmie is unable to battle, victory goes to Wartortle, thus the victor of the battle is the challenger Kite" the ref said.
"ALRIGHT!" Kite shouted.
"Way to go bro!" Daisuke said.
"Thanks" Kite replied.
"Good job Kite!" Green shouted as she gave him a hug.
"Thanks" Kite smiled.
"You did do a good job" Misty said as she handed Kite the cascade badge.
"Sweet" Kite said.
"Where to next?" Green asked.
"You will want to head for Vermillion City, that is where the next gym leader is, and he is a tough one, so good luck" Misty said.
"Thanks" they all said in unison as they headed out the door towards the next city.
"Red is heading that way, hopefully we will catch up to him!" Green shouted with excitement.
"Yea, hopefully" Kite smiled, but deep down he did not want Green to go travel with Red.
"So we each have two gym badges" Daisuke said.
"Yep, and we are going to get our third" Kite said confidently as the trio headed towards Vermillion City.
