A few days passed and now the students of the master dojo that passed around one of the challenge we're now on round two of the challenge for the secret armor of the master dojo! The second challenge was to find special mushrooms filled with dynamax energy known as Max mushrooms!

A student had to bring at least three back with them in order to pass round two!

"Man, when Master Mustard said that it wasn't going to be easy he wasn't kidding."said Lincoln, as he and Raboot were currently looking for the max mushrooms in order to get the secret armor!

"I hope i find them soon, cause if i don't Ronnie Anne and Clyde are going to beat me in round two!"said Lincoln, knowing that this challenge was a lot harder than trying to catch those super fast Slowpoke!

"But I have to keep looking if I want to get that secret armor! I don't know what it is all I know is that I want it!"said Lincoln, as he had a feeling earning the secret armor would surely give him an advantage in his upcoming gym battle against the gym leader, Bea!

"Rab Rab boot."said the rabbit Pokemon with some sweat falling down from his brow, wondering why his trainer was so sad on getting this secret armor...?

It just didn't make sense to him.

"Well... I think we should look over there in that cave as mushrooms grow in caves...I think. Then again these aren't your run-of-the-male mushrooms but hey, it couldn't hurt to look."said Lincoln to himself as he justified going into the cave with the rabbit Pokemon close behind him, wondering why his trainer was so obsessed with this secret armor even though both of them had no idea what it even was.

But Raboot figured that the only way to find out was to win this challenge that Mustard set up for everyone, or at least the ones that passed the first test!

-=O=-

"Come on! I have been looking under logs for the past several hours and I still haven't found any signs of these Max mushrooms. How am I supposed to tell them apart from a normal mushroom, huh?!"asked Ronnie Anne, wondering how exactly she was going to get her hands on these Max mushrooms when she didn't even know what they look like!

"Zig zig."said the tiny raccoon Pokemon, try her best to calm down her trainer as it was clear her temper was getting the better for her.

"I know Zigzagoon, I'm just frustrated as we've been out here for hours and we still haven't found squaw."said Ronnie Anne, before hearing something behind her and looking around to see some kind of Pokemon coming out of the tall grass.

Ronnie Anne then pulled out her Pokedex to identify the Pokemon in front of her.

Pokedex: Scraggy, the shedding Pokemon. If it locks eyes with you, watch out! Nothing and no one is safe from the reckless headbutts of this troublesome Pokemon.

"So you're a Pokemon that attacks before thinking. I like the cut of your style so I'm definitely going to catch you."said Ronnie Anne as Scraggy and her locked eyes with one another.

Scraggy immediately glared at her before the shedding Pokemon charged at her with a powerful headbutt!

"Zigzagoon, use scratch."said Ronnie Anne as the tiny raccoon pokémon avoided getting hit with headbutt before hitting the shedding Pokemon with scratch!

Scraggy felt the brunt end of this attack before I tried to attack with headbutt again!

"Now use sand attack!"ordered Ronnie Anne, causing Zigzagoon to kick up some sand and strike the shedding Pokemon in the face.

As Scraggy was trying to remove the dirt off of his face, Zigzagoon use the opportunity to get close to the shedding Pokemon.

"Now use lick!"said Ronnie Anne, as Zigzagoon licked Scraggy with the Ghost type move and paralyzed it!

"Now finish this off with your headbutt!"ordered Ronnie Anne as Zigzagoon jumped into the air and struck a temporarily paralyzed Scraggy with her headbutt, knocking the shedding Pokemon to the ground!

"Go PokeBall!"said Ronnie Anne as she tossed the Pokeball at the shedding Pokemon.

Scraggy was trying to get up before the Pokeball struck it's head and it was absorbed inside! The Pokeball closed and began to wiggle as soon as it hit the ground as Ronnie Anne and Zigzagoon held their breath. Ronnie Anne was waiting anxiously before the PokeBall stopped moving in a click sound was heard, indicating that Scraggy was successfully captured!

"Yes! I just caught, a Scraggy!"said Ronnie Anne as she held the Pokeball high in the air.

"Even if I don't win that secret armor at least I have a new friend on my side!"said Ronnie Anne, glad to have a new Pokemon on her side!

"I wonder how Clyde's doing right now."said Ronnie Anne, as last she check Clyde was near the beach looking for mushrooms.

-=O=-

"I don't know what I was thinking looking for mushrooms here."said Clyde, that's currently he was wondering if he made the right choice by looking for mushrooms near the beach.

"I think I read a book about mushrooms growing near beaches. But then again I was given that book by Luan so I am not a hundred percent sure as she could have given me a joke book that we false information. I honestly wouldn't put it past her."said Clyde, wondering if that book was full of false information.

And also wondering if Luan did it as a joke?!

"Oh well, might as well head back."said Clyde, before he tripped on something and quickly noticed that the sand he tripped on was moving.

"A Pokemon?"Clyde asked himself as he pulled out his Pokedex to identify it as he noticed that whatever it was had a shovel when its head.

Pokemon: Sandygast, the sand heap Pokemon. Grudges of the dead have possessed a mound of sand and became a Pokemon. Sandygast is fond of the shovel on its head.

Now normally Clyde would be scared but when he heard ghost he grew excited!

"Yes! I've been looking for a ghost type for like ever and I finally have one within my grasp! I'm definitely not letting you go!"said Clyde, making the Sandy Pokemon nervous as Clyde pulled out a Pokeball.

"Budew, I choose you!"exclaimed Cylde as he called out Budew for battle!

"Budew!"exclaimed the bud Pokemon is it still ready for battle.

Sandygast didn't take nicely to this as a fired a Shadow Ball at Budew!

"Budew, dodge and use razor leaf!"ordered Clyde, allowing the bud Pokemon to get out of the way and fire razor leaf at the sand heap Pokemon, causing super effective damage to Sandygast.

"Sand!"exclaimed the sand heap Pokemon as it took the front end of razor leaf before firing another Shadow Ball as Budew!

"Now dodge and use absorb!"ordered Clyde, causing the bud Pokemon to open up the buds on its head and absorb energy right out of Sandygast, causing super effective damage while giving Budew more energy.

Sandygast was really starting to take the brunt end of the damage!

"Now to PokeBall!"said Clyde as he tossed the Pokeball over at the sand heap Pokemon!

Sandygast could do nothing at the Pokeball struck its head and it was absorbed inside as soon as it opened up! Sandygast was soon inside the Pokeball as it closed up and began wiggling on the sand that was connected to Sandygast just a moment ago. Clyde and his Pokemon held their breaths as they waited for the results to pop in and soon it was obvious when a click sound was hurt just as the PokeBall stopped wiggling!

"Yes! I just caught a Sandygast!"exclaimed Clyde as he picked up the Pokeball and held it as high as he could in the air Budew cheering for him the whole time before she began glowing.

"Budew?"said Clyde as he noticed that his Pokemon was evolving and soon an entirely different Pokemon but similar Pokemon to the butt Pokemon stood firm.

"Roselia!"exclaimed the former Budew as Clyde pulled out his Pokedex to identify it.

Pokedex: Budew, the Thorn Pokemon. Its flowers give off a relaxing fragrance. The stronger its aroma, the healthier the Roselia is.

"Wow! I'm so happy that you evolved!"said cried as he hugged Roselia!

-=O=-

"Yes! I don't know for sure but I think these are the max mushrooms!"said Lincoln, as he found the heap of giant mushrooms that look like they were filled with dynamax energy!

Soon Lincoln put them in his bag and when he heard footsteps so he decided to hide in a nearby passageway and sure enough he was glad he did hide when he saw it was Klara.

"Oh, where did that obnoxious brat go?! I was going to challenge him to a Pokemon battle for those mad mushrooms and now I have to go look for some of my own or I'm going to lose the challenge! Oh I hate him in his little friends as they have been nothing but a thorn in my side since they got here!"said Klara, before she ran off with anger and frustration clear on her face.

"She's pretty hot but man is she crazy! I honestly don't know what goes through her head at times as I feel like she just plain out hates me, and she probably does. Wonder why she's so desperate to prove herself."said Lincoln, wondering why Klara was so obsessed with becoming a gym leader.

From what he gathered she's a pretty famous idol so he wonders why she's pushing herself so hard and training so hard to become a gym leader! Perhaps she has her reasons...who knows...?

"Anyway, I better get these max mushrooms back to master mustard so I can pass the second part of the challenge."said Lincoln as he made his way out of the cave and back to the master dojo!

"Master Mustard, I found the max mushrooms you told us to find!"said Lincoln as soon as he ran into the dojo in order to hand the mushrooms over to Honey.

"My goodness Lincoln you seem to be on a roll as you just passed the second part of the challenge!"said Mustard, as Honey took the mushrooms from Lincoln's hand to prepare to make Max soup for everyone.

"Man that soup smells delicious."said Lincoln, as that was the most delicious smelling soup he's ever smelled.

Honey was about put the mushrooms into the soup went out nowhere Klara ran in like a speeding Tauros as she run into the kitchen as fast as her legs could take her, with clear sign she had been running for a while as some of her makeup was starting to run!

"Klara, one on earth has gotten into you dear?"asked Honey, as Klara handed her some Max mushrooms she somehow found.

"Use these instead please as I worked hard to find them."said Klara as she was trying to catch her breath.

Lincoln believed her as it was clear she must have pushed herself hard to find those Max mushrooms!

"I don't mind so let her have her moment."said Lincoln as honey gave him back the max mushrooms he picked and began to put the max mushrooms Klara picked into the soup.

"Man... looks like we lost the challenge."said Ronnie Anne, who didn't really care now that she had a Scraggy by her side.

"Well no point crying over spilled milk."said Clyde, who was too happy about his new Pokemon and newly evolved Pokemon to care.

"We will discuss the third and final challenge tomorrow. For now go wash up everyone as it's time for dinner."said Mustard, as his students quickly began heading to the washroom to wash up for supper!

"Don't think I won't give it everything I got for the third and final challenge, Lincoln."said Klara, as Lincoln could tell she was serious.

"I know, but I'm going to give it a hundred percent as well so be ready!"said Lincoln, as Klara was not going to scare him out of this challenge!

Both just cleared at one another as they knew they were the only two competitors left for the secret armor!

And only one of them was going to win!
