Trent is ready for his second battle as he stand tall on his mark at the battle stadium before Referee speaks up.
"This battle between Trent Fernandez of Eterna City from Sinnoh Region, and Alison Swann of Lilycove City from Hoenn Region. This is a three-on-three match with both trainers being allowed to make substitutions at will, and the match will end when all three of either trainer's Pokemon are defeated, or if one trainer forfeits. This match will be held on a plain, Grass battlefield. Are both trainers ready?" the referee asks as Trent comes out of this thought bubble
Both Trainers nods
"Then please send out your first Pokemon."
"Ludicolo, I choose you", Trent says, and a bipedal Pokémon that appears to be a mixture of a pineapple and a duck.
"Altaria! Shine the light", Alison calls. A blue, avian Pokémon appeared
"Ludicolo versus Altaria, begin!" the referee says
"Ludicolo, Ice Beam", Trent started
"Flamethrower", Alison countered
Ludicolo forms a light blue ball of energy in front of its mouth. It then fires multiple light blue beams from the ball at the opponent. Altaria releases a red-orange stream of fire from its beak at the ice beam. Both attacks collided in the middle of the field, causing a small explosion
"Now use Dragon Breadth", Alison said
"Hydro Pump, Ludicolo", Trent yelled
Altaria fires a thick, green beam of energy from its beak which is met by a powerful jet of water. Both the Pokemon struggle for power and soon stops their attacks once look futile
"Aerial Ace"
"Use Thunder Punch"
Altaria's body becomes surrounded by white streaks of energy and it flies down towards Ludicolo, whose fist is surrounded by yellow sparks, which grow into a ball of electrical energy and hit the incoming Dragon-Pokemon. The attacks cause a loud thud at the stadium, which causes both of the Pokemon to push a few feet back
"Use Dragon Dance", Alison ordered
"Use Ice Beam", Trent said
Altaria's body becomes surrounded by swirling purple clouds of energy and it spins around several times, enhancing its attack power and speed. Ludicolo again forms a light blue ball of energy in front of its mouth and fires multiple light blue beams from the ball at Altaria, causing much pain
"Now use Water Pulse", Trent said
Ludicolo puts its hands together and forms a blue ball. It then throws the ball to Altaria, who is still struggling from the previous attack. Water Pulse hits Altaria on the head, and soon Altaria got confused
"Altaria! Return", Alison said returning back to the Pokeball and throwing another Pokeball
"Go Machamp", She shouts
"Ludicolo versus Machamp, begin!" the referee says
"Use Dual Chop", Alison said
"Caught it with Giga Drain", Trent said
Machamps's all four ands glow green and it rushes at Ludicolo. Ludicolo's body glows green, and matching energy beams extends from its body. The beams wrap around the Machamp's body, drain its energy, and store it back to Ludicolo. Machamp gives a huge grown but the green tendrils from its green fist are surrounded with draconic energy
"Use Energy Ball", Trent shouted
Ludicolo opens its mouth and a light green orb of energy forms in front of it, which Ludicolo fires at the Machamp, causing it to push on the ground
"Machamp, use Close Combat", Alison yelled
"Surf"
Ludicolo creates a big wave, which it rides on and hit Machamp. Machamp took the attack head-on and then repeatedly punches Ludicolo at a fast speed.
"Machamp use Superpower", Alison said
Machamp's body becomes surrounded by a light blue aura. It then strikes the Ludicolo crashing it to the ground
"Now use Hyper Beam", Alison yelled

"Thanks, Ludicolo, you take a lot out of it", Trent said, "Volcarona! I choose you" as he throw another Pokeball
"Machamp versus Volcarona, begin!" the referee says
"Machamp, use Stone Edge", Alison said
"Counter it with Giga Drain", Trent said
Two light blue rings surround Machamp's body. Then, the rings disappear and two rings of glowing white rocks circle Machamp's body. Machamp's eyes then glow light blue and it fires the stones at the Volcarona, whose wings glow green and green tendrils come out of its wings. The tendrils easily destroy the incoming stones and wrap around Machamp, sucking its energy and giving it to the Sun Pokémon
"Use Sunny Day", Trent ordered
Volcarona pulls the green tendrils back to its body and releases a bright flash of light from its body, causing the sunlight to become harsh.
"Machamp, use Stone Edge again", Alison yelled
"Volcarona use Solar Beam", Trent yelled
Volcarona's wings started to glow light green as it forms a yellow-green orb of energy. Once the ball is in front of its mouth grows big enough, it fires a yellow-green beam of energy at the incoming stones.

"Machamp, use Seismic Toss", Alison shouted

"Volcarona versus Walrein, begin!" the referee says
"Walrein use Surf", Alison said
"Solar Beam on that Surf"
walrein creates a big wave and rides on it. Volcarona's wings started to glow light green as it forms a yellow-green orb of energy. Once the ball in front of its mouth grows big enough, it fires a yellow-green beam of energy at walrein. The attack hits walrein on the belly in mid-air, destroying Surf in the process
"Use Body Slam"

"Volcarona, are you all right? return", Trent said, "Durant! I choose you!", as Trent switches to its Steel/Bug type
"walrein versus Durant, begin!" the referee says
"walrein, use Blizzard", Alison said
"Durant, Iron Head"
Walrein fires the chilling winds of thick snow at Durant. Durant's whole body becomes surrounded by a white aura, making it seem black and white. Then, the white aura-covered Durant cuts through the thick snow wind and hit walrein, causing it great pain
"Now use Thunder Fang"
Durant's mandibles glow yellow and sparks of yellow electricity surround them. Durant then bites down walrein, causing it to scream in pain
"walrein, use Hydro Pump"
"Use Dig to avoid", Trent said
Walrein fires a powerful jet of water from its mouth but Durant avoided the attack by digging inside the ground
"Use Blizzard to cover the whole ground", Alison countered
"Get out and use Stone Edge", Trent said

"Now use Thunder Fang again", Trent yelled
Durant again bites down walrein with sparkling mandibles.
"walrein No!, we have to do something, use Earthquake", Alison said
Walrein slams its body on the ground, causing a great tremor that forces Durant a few feets back
"Now Giga Impact"
walrein's body becomes surrounded by an orange sphere of energy. Then, the orange color fades and turns purple, with orange streaks of energy that spiral around the orb. Warlien then rushes to Durant, knocking it out
"Durant is unable to battle, walrein is the winner!" The ref announces.
"Return Durant, you did good, Ludicolo! I choose you!"
"walrein versus Ludicolo, begin!" the referee says

"Thunder Punch! Ludicolo", Trent countered

"Both Pokemon are unable to battle, this round is a draw!" The ref announces. "Please choose your next Pokemon"
"Altaria! Go"
"Volcarona! I choose you!"
"Altaria versus Volcarona, begin!" the referee says
"Altaria, use Sky Attack", Alison said
"Volcarona, use Flame Wheel", Trent countered

"Volcarona use Bug Buzz", Trent said
A light-green aura forms around Altaria's claws and turns into a claw-like shape. It hit Volcarona on the body but Volcarona stands its ground and calls out loudly, which releases red sound waves from its body at the Altaria. When the sound waves reach Altaria, it hurts its head
"Now use Flamethrower", Trent ordered
Volcarona releases a red-orange stream of fire from its mouth hitting Altaria straight-on
"Altaria, use Draco Meteor", Alison said
"Use Flamethrower, Volcarona", Trent countered
An orb of energy appears in the center of Altaria's stomach and his body becomes surrounded by a faint orange aura. A sphere of bright orange energy forms inside Altaria's mouth and is fired into the sky, where it explodes and releases several spheres of energy that rain down on the Volcarona. Before being hit by the attack, Volcarona continues to hit Altaria with a red stream of fire. The meteors hit Volcarona causing great damage but it has already hit Alttaria with enough attack, causing it to struggle on its claws
"Volcarona use Roost", Trent shouted
"What your Volcarona knew roost? Altaria try to get up", Alison said
Volcarona's body starts to glow brightly, regaining some of its health.
"Now use Flamewheel", Trent said
Volcarona rushes at the opponent and its whole body becomes enveloped in flames. The attack is too much for struggling Altaria, causing hit fall to the ground with black swirls in its eyes
"Altaria is unable to battle, Volcarona is the winner and the match goes to Trent Fernandez of Eterna City!" The ref announces.
