Chapter 4: The Mysterious X
"And now, it's time for our first match of round one. Standing on the red side is Trayvon. And on the blue side is X!" the commentator started off the Pyrite Colosseum challenge with these words. X simply threw two Poke Balls, out of which burst two Dragonite. Trayvon's two Poke Balls contained a Teddiursa and a Torchic. Needless to say, X won in under a minute by knocking out Torchic with one Dragonite's Aqua Tail while the other one took out Teddiursa with a Brick Break at almost the same time.
"Darn, i didn't think X was this good. Never even uttered a single word all battle." Ryo, who was backstage with the other entrants, told Jasmine. "Odds are X has Psychic powers."
Ryo and Jasmine would win their battles, but not as quickly; Hydroxia had big trouble trying to hit a Vulpix as a Chinchou kept interfering, whereas Ryo didn't count on a third Pokemon in his opponent's team. Once the round was over Ryo checked the matchups for the second round. He would be facing some trainer named John in round two, whereas Jasmine had a female named Tiffany and X was against the defending champion prior to Miror B.'s takeover, Hector.
"Okay, everyone, it's time for round two. First match is, in the red circle, Tiffany of Olivine City in Johto. In the blue circle, from Orre's Zirconia City is Jasmine Mazaki. Battle BEGIN!"
Meanwhile, in the GX system...
"Man, didn't expect this matchup to lead off. A girl from your hometown against a different girl with the same first name as you, 96P." the blonde, XQ second-in-command Hollie Brazie, told her brunette ally Jasmine Bray.
"Why didn't Anise enter? Does it have something to do with X?" Jasmine asked. "And where's Jet? Haven't seen him since he left to check on her. Do ya think he's the person behind X?"
"As to that, i have no idea. Can't get a positive power level reading on X, so i have no clue on X's identity."
Back to GD Pyrite...
"Hydroxia, Skiploom, let's go!"
"Quagsire, Geodude, you're up!"
"Hydroxia, Water Pulse on Geodude. Skiploom, Razor Leaf on Quagsire." Jasmine called out to her Pokemon. Due to dual double-super-effective hits, Jasmine easliy won the battle. She would end up facing a trainer from Hoenn named Barney in the semifinals. X would utterly dominate his second opponent using the two Dragonite and earn a match with Ryo, who won using Chris and Kevin to cover each others' weaknesses.
Round 3: the semi-finals.
"Bayleef, Slugma, battle time!" Ryo yelled out to start his match with X. The winner would face Jasmine, who defeated Barney in a close match. X simply sent out the same two Dragonite from the previous two rounds. Bayleef was quickly taken out by one Dragonite via Ice Beam while an Earthquake from the other took out Slugma. Ryo recalled the fainted Shadow Pokemon, then sent out Chris and Kevin.
'So his two Eeveelutions are named after the Intentional Talk hosts.' X thought to himself. 'Dragonicys, hit Chris with Brick Break!' X then Psychically commanded his Pokemon. One of the Dragonite quickly took out Chris with a hard hit to the head. Out came Ryo's last Pokemon, Noctowl, only for a Thunderbolt from the other Dragonite to make short work of it. Kevin tried a return attack, but the Dragonite were too fast, one of which ending it with an Ominous Wind attack.
"X wins. No one has been able to knock out either of his two Dragonite. In fact, no one's been able to even HIT one of them. Will Jasmine be able to stop the trend?" the commentator yelled to the packed colosseum. Unfortunately for Ryo, X had little trouble with Jasmine in the final despite a close scare with Hydroxia's Ice Beam once it came out.
"We need to find a way to read X's mind. He basically kicked all four of his opponents' butts, and the last two were us." Ryo told Anise once they regrouped. X then tapped Ryo on the shoulder. Apparently X had a plan to rescue Duking's Plusle.
'I take it you need to rescue a Plusle from Miror B. to drive him out. Just leave the battling to me, you guys do the Snagging. My two Dragonite oughta overpower those doofs easily.' X told Ryo using his Psychic abilities. Using cloaks (Anise rendered herself invisible) the four entered the seemingly-abandoned building just before the chasm in between the colosseum and the rest of Pyrite. X tapped the blue-uniformed person in front of him, holding a Poke Ball. This triggered a battle where Ryo was able to Snag the Cipher Peon's Shadow Yanma. X's plan to rescue Duking's Plusle from Miror B. was executed perfectly as the mystery trainer's two Dragonite effortlessly pulverized everyone's teams just like in the colosseum. During the pursuit of the music-loving Cipher Admin Ryo added a Meditite, Jasmine grabbed a Dunsparce and Anise nicked a Swablu. Jasmine had also nicked a Remoraid and Anise a Mantine on an unexpected backtrack to rescue Silva prior to entering the cave (whose guard had his Qwilfish Snagged by Ryo).
X basically used just the two Dragonite during the pulverizing of Miror B.'s forces. Against the Cipher Admin himself, X only called out one Dragonite, pairing a Zapdos with it. This was to effectively deal with Miror B.'s four Ludicolo as the Dragonite used knew Aerial Ace. Once Sudowoodo, Miror B.'s Shadow Pokemon, entered the fray, Ryo struck with a Snag Ball that successfully nicked the Rock-type to end the battle. Jasmine would then take the rescued Plusle under her care on the Pokemon's request and then headed to Agate Village, home to Jasmine's grandparents. X was already there when they arrived, having let them get a head start and then using Instant Transmission once they were out of sight. However, Cipher's next plot would soon begin.
