We begin the chapter were the last one left off once the group learned who the top 4 trainers will be Ash, Kiawe and Ritchie went back to the room and went into their own training rooms to prepare for tomorrow's battles all three trained into the night Ritchie was the first to finish as he alongside the other kids went to bed while Ash and Kiawe stayed up to continue their training we then zoom in on Ash training his Pokemon.
"Charmeleon use Dragon Dance!" Ash calls Charmeleon roars as it spins successfully increasing its attack and speed
"Alright Pikachu use Quick attack and Charmeleon try to capture Pikachu!" Ash calls Pikachu begins to run around the room as Charmeleon gives chase the two-mons run around for a little while until Charmeleon successfully catches Pikachu.
"Great job Charmeleon looks like you've mastered Dragon Dance" Ash says with Charmeleon smiling as it puts Pikachu down Ash then looks at the time and sees that its very late into the night, so he suggests ending the training and go to bed (Raichu went to sleep before them) Pikachu and Charmeleon agree once they leave the room, they see a Flamethrower and go to investigate.
"Good job Turtonator one more Flamethrower!" Kiawe says as Turtonator nods and launches one more Flamethrower, Kiawe pets the fire turtle on the head.
"Hey Kiawe!" Ash's voice yells Kiawe turns around and sees Ash with Pikachu and Charmeleon the two boys and Pokemon greet each other.
"So, your still training?" Ash asks with Kiawe nodding
"Yep, we just finished and are about to head to bed, how about you?" Kiawe asks with Ash saying he's going to bed to
"Man, I'm so excited for tomorrow's battle I hope I can sleep" Ash says with Kiawe saying the same
"Let's have a fun battle tomorrow Ash I'm not going to hold anything back me and Turtonator are going to defeat you and win the tournament" Kiawe says as Turtonator fires a Flamethrower from its nose agreeing with Kiawe
"Sorry Kiawe but the ones who are going to win are me and my Pokemon" Ash states with Pikachu sparking its cheeks and Charmeleon shooting a Flamethrower up in the sky.
The two boys and Pokemon stare at each other for a few moments before the head to their room to sleep looking forward to their battle tomorrow.
It's now the next day everyone is excited for today's battles the first match of the day is Ritchie vs Diamond a boy from Twinleaf town in the Sinnoh region throughout the tournament Diamond has proven to be a really strong trainer he mainly only used his Monferno, Staraptor and Luxray In his battles currently Diamond is in a room with his mom and Dawn his little sister.
"Good luck Diamond you'll win for sure!" Dawn says with a smile
"Yes, I just know you'll do great out there" Diamond's mom says smiling at the boy
"Thank you I'm really looking forward to this battle I just wish big sis Platinum was here to watch" Diamond says in a disappointed tone
"You know how busy Platinum is if she wasn't helping out with the Pokemon league she would be here to watch you battle" Diamond's mom says
"Yeah bro big sis would be cheering for you if she were here" Dawn says as Diamond nods
"Still, I'm a bit nervous going up against this Ritchie kid he's proven to be really strong throughout the tournament you guys saw him beat that Hilbert kid with only one Pokemon I wonder if I can win" Diamond says in a nervous tone
"No need to worry Diamond you and your Pokemon have been training hard you'll do great!" Dawn says with a smile trying to encourage her brother
"Dawn's right Diamond you've been training really hard for the tournament you even have 5 of the Sinnoh badges you're a strong trainer I just know you'll do great!" Diamonds mom says as Diamond nods he then feels his Pokeballs wiggle his Pokemon agree Diamond then gets a determined look on his face.
"You guys are right there's no need for me to be scared I just need to get out there and win!" Diamond says with confidence his mom and Dawn smile they give him a hug and Diamond begins to walk out of the room and heads into the battlefield.
"Here it is folks the first match of the Semi Finals for the SS Anne Tournament is here let's introduce the trainers of the first match today!" Alex says as he gets ready to announce the trainers
"In this corner we have Diamond of Twinleaf town he's proven to be a very strong and talented trainer being able to defeat his opponents quickly he's the son of the famous coordinator Johanna, the younger brother of Platinum who's said to be on the same level of the Sinnoh Champion Cynthia and he currently has 5 Sinnoh badges let's give him a round of applause everyone!" Alex says as the crowd roars and cheers for Diamond, as Diamond walks to the battlefield he smiles and waves at the crowd.
"GO BIG BRO!" Dawn gives a loud cheer
"This Diamond kid is the son of Johanna and the sister of Platinum amazing" Brock says as Ash and everyone else other than Cilan look at Brock confused
"Are those people really amazing Brock?" Ash asks as Brock answers
"Yes, very Johanna was a Top Coordinator for 10 years straight and her daughter Platinum is amazing as well she's competed in the Johto, Unova and Hoenn leagues beating them on her first try, like your father when she defeated the champions of those regions, she didn't take their titles and its said she's on par or stronger than the current Sinnoh Champion Cynthia" Brock responds
"Not only that I've also heard she has trained with your dad Ash and is one of his best students" Cilan says surprising not only Ash but the rest of the group
"Whoa I hope I get to meet her one day and have a battle" Ash says with fire in his eyes
"She's also really pretty" Brock says getting hearts in his eyes as everyone falls, they then hear Alex beginning to announce Ritchie
"In this corner we have Ritchie from Littleroot Town, he's showcased a lot of skill in his battles, currently has 4 Kanto badges and 1 badge from Hoenn let's give a loud cheer for Ritchie and his partner Sparky everyone!" Alex says as the crowd begins to roar in excitement as they see Ritchie and Sparky walk out waving to everyone.
"Yeah, go Ritchie!" The group cheers loud for their friend as he and Diamond make it to their sides of the battlefield both boys stare at each other and have a serious look on their faces and get their Pokeball's ready.
"This is a 4v4 Pokemon battle both trainers are allowed to substitute their Pokemon at any time they want, the winner will be decided when either side has no more Pokemon that can battle now please send out your first Pokemon!" The ref calls as Diamond sends out his Pokemon first
"Luxray I choose you!" Diamond calls sending out a four-legged lion like Pokemon with black fur and blue skin it gives a mighty roar and gets in a battle-ready stance
"Man, that Pokemon is so cool every time I see it!" Ash says with stars in his eyes at that moment one of his Pokeball's open and Charmeleon appears
"Oh, hey Charmeleon you want to watch the battle?" Ash asks with Charmeleon nodding they both turn their heads back to the battlefield
"As I thought Luxray is first looks like it's time for you to battle, Gobi I choose you!" Ritchie says sending out the mon what comes out is a bipeadal Pokemon, it has large rhombus-shaped wings, light green skin and its eyes look like goggles.
"FLYGON!" The Pokemon gives a mighty roar shaking the battlefield leaving everyone in awe
"There it is that's the third Pokemon Ritchie used against me" Norman tells his sons as they look at the Pokemon
"It's a Flygon!" Iris says with hearts in her eyes
"What's a Flygon?" Ash says as he and Leaf scan it with their Pokedex's
"Flygon, the Mystic Pokémon. A Ground and Dragon type. Flygon has been called "the Desert Spirit." With its powerful wings, it creates sandstorms to hide in." The Pokedex says as Flygon gives another roar trying to intimidate Luxray but the electric lion isn't fazed as it roars back.
"This could be challenging" Diamond says nervously
"Let the battle begin!" The ref calls as Diamond makes the first move
"Luxray use Swift!" Diamond calls Luxray roars as it fires stars from its tail
"Knock it away with your wings!" Ritchie calls Flygon easily gets rid of the Swift as it glares at Luxray waiting for its next attack
"Luxray charge in with Ice Fang!" Diamond calls Luxray roars as it runs forward with its teeth covered in ice
"Use Earthquake!" Ritchie calls shocking Diamond Flygon gives a mighty roar as it stomps its foot on the ground shaking the entire battlefield and even affecting the stands, Luxray falls from the super effective hit and groans in pain, and it struggles to get up.
"Man, that Flygon is strong that Earthquake reminds me of when my Gyarados uses the move" Ash says
"This is bad Luxray has taken a lot of damage already I should return it for now" Diamond thinks to himself
"Luxray return!" Diamond says returning the Pokemon
"So, he's returning Luxray? Alright then Flygon return for now" Ritchie says as Flygon nods surprising Diamond, Ritchie takes out another Pokeball
"Jelly Go!" Ritchie says sending out a large Tentacruel
"Staraptor Go!" Diamond calls sending out the large hawk it gives a mighty roar as it lands on the battlefield
"Let the battle continue!" The ref calls Ritchie makes the first move
"Use Hydro Pump!" Ritchie calls Jelly fires the large stream of water at Staraptor
"Dodge then use Air Slash!" Diamond calls Staraptor dodges the Hydro Pump and quickly fires the slashes of wind hitting Jelly and causing damage to the squid Pokemon
"That's great Staraptor now Acrobatic's!" Diamond calls Staraptor's body glows blue as it charges forward at Tentacruel
"Use Screech!" Ritchie calls Tentacruel gives a loud screech making Staraptor stop as it tries to cover its ears from the pain Diamond does the same, Staraptor's defense is now greatly lowered.
"Now Poison Jab!" Ritchie calls before Diamond could make a command Tentacruel covers all its tentacles with poison as it launches all of them hitting Staraptor causing major damage to the bird Pokemon as it cries out in pain and is now poisoned.
"Hang in their Staraptor use Air Slash!" Diamond calls Staraptor roars firing multiple slashes of wind at Tentacruel
"Use Double Team then end it with Venoshock!" Ritchie calls Tentacruel quickly multiples itself dodging the Air Slash then it and its copies fire the Venoshock doing great damage to Staraptor as the bird cries out in pain it then falls on the ground knocked out.
"Staraptor is unable to battle Tentacruel is the winner!" The ref calls Ritchie and Jelly celebrate, Diamond returns Staraptor and tells it good job.
"Luxray come back out!" Diamond calls bringing the electric lion back out
"Jelly return go Happy!" Ritchie returns his Tentacruel and sends out his own Butterfree confusing everyone
"He's not sending Gobi back out?" Iris says
"He probably has a plan for his Butterfree" Ash responds
"Let the battle continue!" The ref calls as Diamond makes the first move
"Luxray use Thunder Bolt!" Diamond calls Luxray fires out an electric bolt towards happy
"Use Protect then Acrobatics!" Ritchie calls happy summons a protective barrier blocking the Thunder bolt it then glows a bright blue as it quickly flies towards Luxray and hits it back and forth causing more damage to the electric lion
"Hang in their Luxray use Discharge!" Diamond calls "I don't think so Happy use U Turn!" Ritchie calls Before Luxray could fire the Discharge Happy glows green hitting Luxray in the face causing the electric lion to stumble back but it's still able to fire the Discharge. Happy then goes back in its Pokeball and Gobi comes back out tanking the Discharge the move does nothing to the dragon as it looks at the tired Luxray.
"Wait why did Gobi come out?" Ash asks
"U turn like Volt Switch allows the user to switch with a party member, I guess Ritchie figured that Happy wouldn't have been able to take down Luxray so he called for U turn to bring Gobi back in" Leaf responds
"But wouldn't it have made more sense to send Gobi back in before instead of Happy?" Giselle asks
"True he could've done that, but Diamond more than likely would have switched out to a different Pokemon, so Ritchie probably decided to send in his Butterfree so it'll keep Luxray in the battle and in a way forcing Diamond to keep Luxray in since Ritchie will more than likely do the same strategy again" Brock responds as everyone nods.
"Lux" Luxray says panting heavily
"It looks like Luxray can't go on anymore, but I just need it to land one attack" Diamond thinks to himself as he calls out a command
"Luxray use Thunder Bolt at Flygon's feet to block its vision!" Diamond calls Luxray roars firing the electric bolt towards Flygon's feet creating a dust cloud to obstruct Flygon's vision, but the dragon nor Ritchie seem fazed.
"Now Luxray use Ice Fang!" Diamond calls Luxray charges forward with its teeth covered in ice it goes to bite Flygon.
"Gobi dodge then use Dragon Claw" Ritchie says Gobi easily dodges the ice fang and hits Luxray with Dragon Claw the electric cat falls it groans in pain but is knocked out.
"Luxray is unable to battle the winner is Flygon!" The ref calls Ritchie and Gobi cheer, Diamond is shocked but returns Luxray telling it good job
"That strategy you used probably would've worked on one of my other Pokemon but not Gobi, its eyes are protected by lenses that help it see through dust" Ritchie says
"Yeah, now that I think about it that was a dumb plan, but I couldn't think of anything else at the time" Diamond responds with a nervous chuckle as he takes out his next Pokeball
"Diamond can still win right mom?" Dawn asks her mom Johanna
"Yes, I believe so it's like you said no need to worry" Johanna responds making Dawn happy as she starts to cheer for Diamond again, Johanna holds her hands together hoping that Diamond can still make a comeback.
"Well, I was hoping to save you for later but let's do this Snorlax Go!" Diamond calls sending out a big bear like Pokemon it roars ready to battle
"A Snorlax huh interesting" Ritchie says with a smile
"Wow so he has a Snorlax cool it kind of reminds me of my dad's" Ash says with Leaf nodding as they scan the Pokemon
"Snorlax, the Sleeping Pokémon. A Normal type. Snorlax eats over 800 pounds of food every day. As it begins to eat, it falls asleep, and it sleeps while it eats. Its average height is a bit less than seven feet." The Pokedex says
"That Snorlax looks like it's been taken well care of" Brock says
"Yeah, go Snorlax!" Dawn cheers while jumping up and down on her seat Johanna tries to stop her so she doesn't fall
"Let's do this Snorlax let's get revenge for Staraptor and Luxray!" Diamond calls as Snorlax nods in agreement as it roars at Gobi with Gobi roaring back at it
"Let the battle continue!" The ref calls as Diamond makes the first move
"Snorlax use Screech!" Diamond calls Snorlax gives a loud screech hurting most people in the crowd's ears but neither Gobi nor Ritchie seem fazed, but Gobi's defense is now lowered
"Now Ice Punch!" Diamond calls as Snorlax charges forward covering its fist in ice ready to punch Gobi
"Use Sand Attack!" Ritchie calls Gobi using its tail blows sand in Snorlax's eyes making the big Pokemon cry out in pain as it goes to rub them
"Now Steel Wing!" Ritchie calls Gobi roars as it covers its wings in steel energy as it quickly hits Snorlax in the face knocking the large Pokemon down.
"Snorlax use Ice Beam above you!" Diamond calls Snorlax quickly fires the Ice beam hitting Gobi doing super effective damage to the dragon, but Gobi just shakes it off shocking everyone
"Now Gobi use Rockslide!" Ritchie calls Gobi roars as it summons the large boulders heading towards Snorlax
"Snorlax use Protect!" Diamond calls Snorlax quickly summons a protective barrier blocking the Rockslide
"Gobi use Iron Tail!" Ritchie calls Gobi quickly flies forward hitting Snorlax in the stomach with its tail making Snorlax cough in pain as its defense is also lowered
"Snorlax counter with Ice Punch!" Diamond calls "Dodge with Dig!" Ritchie calls Snorlax covers its fist in ice it tries to hit Gobi but misses as Gobi dives underground
"Snorlax try to sense where Flygon is going to appear from!" Diamond calls Snorlax nods as it tries to find Gobi's location. As Snorlax is listening it can sense that Gobi is under it Diamond notices and tells Snorlax to jump and use Body Slam but Ritchie smiles
"Gobi use Dragon Pulse!" Ritchie calls shocking Diamond and Snorlax as a large beam of Dragon energy appears from the ground consuming the air born Snorlax
"Snor!" Snorlax yells in pain as it falls back down to the battlefield groaning, Gobi comes out from underground and gives a roar.
"So instead of having Gobi come out of the hole Ritchie had Gobi stay underground since he knew Snorlax would jump in the air giving him the opening needed to use Dragon Pulse simply genius" Cilan says
"Well, he does have 5 badges, so it does make sense" Giselle responds
"Ritchie continues to surprise me" Ash says with Pikachu, Raichu and Charmeleon agreeing with him
"Come on Snorlax you're not done yet get up!" Diamond calls Snorlax groans but is able to stand up but it does give a few huffs
"Looks like it can still battle Gobi use Fire Blast!" Ritchie calls Gobi takes a deep breath as it fires the blast of fire at Snorlax
"Snorlax block it with Protect!" Diamond calls Snorlax quickly summons a protective barrier successfully blocking the blast of fire
"Now U Turn!" Ritchie calls surprising Diamond as Gobi glows in green bug energy it hits Snorlax in the stomach making the big Pokemon cough, Gobi goes back to its Pokeball as Happy comes back out.
"Now he's bringing Happy back out?" Sophocles says
"Snorlax use Ice Beam!" Diamond calls Snorlax roars as it fires the Ice beam at Happy
"Use Psychic to send the Ice beam right back!" Ritchie calls Happy's eyes glow blue as it stops the Psychic and sends it back at Snorlax hitting the mon in the face making Snorlax stumble back
"It's okay Snorlax try using Thunder Bolt!" Diamond calls Snorlax roars as it fires the electric bolt at Happy
"Dodge then use Sleep Powder!" Ritchie calls Happy easily dodges the electric bolt it quickly flies to Snorlax spraying the sleep powder on the big Pokemon Snorlax yawns as it falls asleep
"Snorlax no Wake Up!" Diamond calls pleadingly but gets no response
"Snorlax are known to be very heavy sleepers so unless Diamond has a Poke Flute Snorlax isn't waking up anytime soon" Brock says with the group nodding.
"Happy use Quiver Dance then end it with Hurricane!" Ritchie calls Happy starts to dance increasing its Special attack/defense and speed sharply it then begins to flap its wings fast consuming Snorlax in the Hurricane spinning the Pokemon very fast and causing major damage.
"SNORLAX!" Diamond yells as the Hurricane stops Snorlax crashes down hard on the battlefield its now fully awake it tries to get up but ultimately stays down.
"Snorlax is unable to battle Butterfree is the winner!" The ref calls as Ritchie and Happy celebrate Diamond is in shock but he returns Snorlax telling it good job as he takes out his last Pokeball
"My last Pokeball I knew this battle was going to be difficult, but I was at least hoping I would've taken out a couple Pokemon by now" Diamond thinks to himself staring at Monferno's Pokeball
"Come on Diamond don't give up!" "Come on Sweetie keep fighting!" Dawn and Johanna cheer loudly Diamond looks at them then feels Monferno's Pokeball wriggle telling its trainer to not give up and to fight until the end making Diamond smile.
"You're right Monferno the battle isn't over, yet we can still turn this around Mom, Dawn, Platinum, you and the rest of my Pokemon believe in me so let's do this and win Monferno I choose you!" Diamond calls sending out the Pokemon what appears is an orange bipedal monkey, with fire coming out of the tip of its tail.
"MONFERNO!" The Monkey gives a mighty roar ready to battle and get revenge for its fallen teammates the crowd roars in excitement
"There it is" Ritchie says with a smile
"Yeah, go Monferno Win!" Dawn cheers loudly
"Let's do this Monferno!" Diamond says with Monferno nodding
"Okay Happy let's keep going" Ritchie says with Happy nodding
"Let the battle continue!" The ref calls Ritchie makes the first move
"Use Psychic!" Ritchie calls Happy quickly fires the Psychic waves at Monferno
"Use Mach Punch!" Diamond calls Monferno's fist glows as it charges forward dodging the Psychic and hits Happy in the chest knocking the butterfly to the ground
"Fast" Ritchie says
"Now end it with Flame Wheel!" Diamond calls Monferno roars as it becomes a flaming wheel and crashes into Happy Ritchie couldn't make a command in time Happy cries out in pain as it falls on the battlefield knocked out.
"Butterfree is unable to battle Monferno wins!" The ref calls as Diamond and Monferno give a loud cheer
"Way to go Monferno!" Diamond says as he and the monkey high five each other
"Yay, Diamond finally took down a Pokemon now he just needs to defeat the other three!" Dawn says happily with Johanna nodding
"Ritchie finally lost a Pokemon" Misty says
"Yeah, but look he's still calm" Leaf replies
"Thanks for battling hard Happy take a good rest" Ritchie says returning the butterfly as he takes out his next Pokeball
"Char" Charmeleon says getting Ash and everyone else's attention
"Can you feel Zippo is coming out next?" Ash asks with Charmeleon nodding everyone then turns back to the battlefield
"Your Monferno is really fast and powerful Diamond I've really been interested to battle it and this one feels the same" Ritchie says holding out Zippo's Pokeball
"Thanks, you've given us a tough battle so far but with Monferno out on the battlefield we're going to win!" Diamond says with confidence as Monferno nods agreeing with its trainer
"We'll see about that Zippo I Choose you!" Ritchie calls Zippo appears from its Pokeball giving a mighty roar it looks at Monferno and smiles
"There's Zippo" Ash says with Charmeleon nodding
"Let the battle continue!" The ref calls as Diamond makes the first move
"Monferno use Mach Punch!" Diamond calls Monferno quickly shoots forward hitting Zippo across the face making the fire lizard skid back a few feet it stands its ground and smiles at Monferno
"Zippo use Flamethrower!" Ritchie calls Zippo quickly fires the flames from its mouth
"Dodge with Dig!" Diamond calls Monferno quickly digs underground dodging the Flamethrower
"Now Flame Wheel!" Diamond calls Monferno shoots out from underground in a wheel of flames hitting Zippo and knocking the lizard in the sky
"I took that idea from you" Diamond says as Ritchie nods
"Now Monferno use Mach Punch!" Diamond calls "Counter with Fire Punch!" Richie calls Both Pokemon clash with their fist creating an explosion and land back on the battlefield
"Zippo use Ancient Power!" Ritchie calls Zippo roars summoning multiple rocks around him and flings them at Monferno
"Destroy them all with Power Up Punch!" Diamond calls Monferno's fist glow a bright red as it begins to punch thru all the rocks greatly increasing its attack power. After using Ancient Power Zippo's body glows as it can feel all of its attack/defense, special attack/defense and speed all raise greatly Zippo then charges forward.
"Zippo use Dragon Claw!" Ritchie calls Zippo gets close to Monferno who is still dealing with the Ancient Power and hits the monkey with its claw Monferno yells in pain and begins to skid back but Zippo isn't done yet as it leaps in the air.
"Use Flamethrower!" Ritchie calls Zippo quickly fires the flames towards Monferno
"Use Dig!" Diamond calls Monferno quickly digs underground barely dodging the Flamethrower, Zippo then lands back on the battlefield once he does Monferno appears from under Zippo upper cutting him making Zippo fly thru the air and crash back down on the battlefield.
"Good job Monferno!" Diamond cheers with Monferno nodding, the monkey looks over at Zippo who gets up still ready to battle he doesn't look like he took much damage from the dig, but it still hurt.
"Man, Zippo's tough" "Char" Ash says with Charmeleon agreeing
"That Ancient Power boost definitely increased its defenses, but it still should've taken a lot of damage from dig since Monferno increased its attack power from Power Up Punch" Brock says
"I guess Zippo is just really bulky Ritchie must've trained its defense a lot" Kiawe says with the group nodding
"Your Monferno really packs quite the Punch Diamond does it have the Iron Fist ability?" Ritchie asks surprising Diamond
"Yes, it does how do you know?" Diamond asks
"Well, I notice that you've mainly been focusing a lot on punching moves of course Monferno as a species are mainly physical attackers but after I saw how winded Happy was from the Mach Punch and watching Monferno's previous battles I saw that its punching moves are a lot more powerful." Ritchie responds surprising everyone
"Hehehe wow you really are smart it's no wonder you're the favorite to win yes my Monferno has Iron Fist that helps increasing its punching power" Diamond says as Monferno punches the air in confirmation as Richie and Zippo smile
"Now that we've confirmed that Zippo its time, we get serious!" "Pika!" Richie and Sparky say with Zippo roaring ready to continue the battle
"You mean you weren't serious before? Alright Monferno let's win!" Diamond says as Monferno roars as well as it stares at Zippo both Pokemon and trainers wait a few moments before they call for their next attacks.
"Monferno use Flamethrower!" "Block it Zippo!" Both trainers call Monferno fires the stream of fire at Zippo, the fire lizard is able to successfully block it.
"Now Flame Wheel!" Diamond calls Monferno becomes a wheel of flames it heads towards Zippo who's still blocking the flamethrower
"Zippo when Monferno gets close use Dragon Claw!" Ritchie calls Zippo nods as it continues to block the Flamethrower it sees Monferno getting closer it ready's its claws
"Jump over Zippo and use Close Combat!" Diamond calls surprising Ritchie and Zippo as Monferno jumps over Zippo it lands behind the lizard and begins to continuously punch Zippo
"Good job Monferno keep it up!" Diamond calls Monferno punches Zippo one more time making the fire lizard skid back, Zippo's taken a lot of damage, but it can still fight it gives a mighty roar
"Zippo use Flame Charge!" Ritchie calls Zippo roars as it incases itself in fire and rams into Monferno hurting the Monkey as it falls down, Zippo glows as its speed is increased.
"Use Mach Punch!" "Counter with Dragon Claw!" Both trainers call the fist and claws on Monferno and Zippo glow as they charge at each other and begin to hit each other back and forth with each punch and claw strike doing more damage both fire types don't want to lose as they keep hitting each other.
"Use Flamethrower!" Both trainers call the two fire types fire the stream of flames, the two Flamethrowers collide creating an explosion
"Use Dragon Claw!" Ritchie calls as Zippo charges forward and hits Monferno in the face with its claw
"Counter with Mach Punch!" Diamond calls Monferno roars as it punches Zippo hard in the stomach sending the fire lizard flying as it lands on the battlefield but quickly gets up still wanting to battle.
"It just won't go down okay Monferno use Close Combat!" Diamond calls Monferno shoots forward as it begins to continuously punch Zippo causing more damage to the fire lizard, once Monferno stops Zippo gets on one knee and looks like it's about to faint.
"Alright Monferno end it with Mach Punch!" Diamond calls Monferno nods as it punches Zippo across the face it looks like Zippo is about to fall but stops as it grabs Monferno's arm and smiles surprising everyone except for Ritchie who's smiling.
"Good job Zippo now use Counter!" Ritchie calls "Monferno get out of there!" Diamond yells in worry Monferno tries to get Zippo to let go but the fire lizard is holding on tightly its body glows a bright orange that goes into its fist.
"GOOOO!" "CHAR!" Ritchie and Zippo yell as Zippo punches Monferno in the stomach Monferno coughs from the pain as it flies pass Diamond crashing into the wall almost breaking it, Monferno falls it doesn't even try to get up its completely unconscious
"Monferno is unable to battle Zippo is the winner, Diamond has no more Pokemon left allowing Ritche to move on to the next round!" The ref calls as the crowd gives a loud cheer.
"Here it is folks we have are first finalist Ritchie from Littleroot Town!" Alex says as the crowd begins to roar even louder,
"We did it Zippo you were amazing!" "Pika!" Ritchie and Sparky run to the fire lizard giving him a hug Zippo smiles and hugs them back
"You were amazing Ritchie, Zippo!" The group cheers loud for Ritchie and Zippo except for Ash, Pikachu, Raichu and Charmeleon they're in shock at how strong Ritchie and his Pokemon are. Ash breaks away from his shock he looks at his Pokemon smiles and speaks.
"Let's win this next match, train hard, defeat Ritchie and win the tournament!" Ash says with his Pokemon cheering in agreement.
"You'll have to get pass me first" Kiawe says looking at Ash
"Of course!" Ash responds smiling at Kiawe both trainers have fire burning in their eyes
"Is it getting warm in here?" Leaf asks
"I think its them" Misty responds pointing to Ash and Kiawe.
"Ah I can't believe Diamond lost" Dawn says in a sad tone
"It's okay sweetie you can't win all the time, and this lost will just make Diamond grow stronger" Johanna says patting Dawn on the head making the little girl smile
"Oh, I just got a great idea once we get back to the room let's make a good dinner for Diamond and his Pokemon" Johanna says
"Sounds great I'll help make the Poffins!" Dawn responds smiling at her mom
We then see Diamond walking over to Monferno he picks up the monkey and holds it in his arms.
"Mon" Monferno says opening its eyes as it sees its trainer
"Hey Monferno thanks for battling hard you and everyone else gave it all you had but, in the end, we lost" Diamond says as Monferno gets sad, but Diamond continues to talk
"You know even though we lost I feel this lost will only make us stronger so let's keep training hard and one day we'll be champions" Diamond says with a smile Monferno smiles as it gives a happy cry
"Hey Diamond!" A voice calls over to Diamond the boy turns around and sees Ritchie with Sparky and Zippo
"That was a great battle let's battle again one day" "Pika" "Char" Ritchie says smiling holding out his hand with Sparky and Zippo agreeing
"Yeah, you really gave us a run for our money, if we battle again, we'll be the ones who win" "Mon" Diamond says with confidence taking Ritchie's hand with Monferno agreeing with its trainer
"Sounds good let's have another fun battle" Ritchie responds
"Yeah, oh and good luck in the finals" Diamonds says
"Thanks, I'll do my best" Ritchie responds both boys shake hands as the crowd claps the commentators then begin to speak
"Amazing battle you two you both battled hard" Surge says
"It was really enjoyable you both used your Pokemon well" Violet says
"I enjoyed it" Gary says with a smile
"Indeed, you both showcase amazing skills as Pokemon trainers' good job on making it to the semifinals and Ritchie congrats on being the first finalist" Goodshow says both boys smile as they go back to their seats. Once Diamond reaches his mom and sister, they congratulate him saying that even though he lost he did amazing in the tournament Diamond thanks them, Ritchie makes it to where the rest of the group is, and they congratulate him.
"The next match will begin in 10 minutes will Ash and Kiawe please go to the locker rooms and prepare" Alex says over the speaker as Ash and Kiawe get up from their seats and walk to their respective locker rooms.
5 minutes later we see Kiawe with Mallow, Lana and Sophocles as he has Turtonator, Marowak, Arcanine and Fletchinder out he's making sure they're all in good shape for the battle
"I'm so excited to see you and Ash battle today!" Mallow says
"Yeah, I just know it's going to be amazing!" Sophocles says
"Go out there and show that Alola spirit!" Lana says as Kiawe and his Pokemon nod
"Yes, today I'm battling Ash he's proven to be a really strong trainer but with the power of Akala Island and Alola on our side let's get out there and win!" Kiawe says as his Pokemon roar in agreement Kiawe smiles as he returns them to their Pokeball's.
Meanwhile in Ash's Locker room there's Misty, Brock, Leaf, Giselle, Joe, Ritchie, Iris and Cilan alongside are the 4 Pokemon Ash is using which are Warturtle, Kingler Pidgeotto and Charmeleon. Like Kiawe Ash is making sure all four of his Pokemon are in good fighting condition.

"I just know you're going to do great!" Leaf says
"Oh, Ashy Kins I just know you're going to win but for good luck here's a kiss" Giselle says as she goes to kiss Ash's cheek Misty stops her making Giselle annoyed and pout
"I'm pretty sure if you kiss him, it'll only bring bad luck" Misty says
"Hmph you're just jealous because I'm willing to kiss Ash while you're too scared to" Giselle responds with Misty's face turning red as the two get into an argument Brock and Cilan try to stop them
"Good luck Ash" Joe says
"You defeated my Dragonite there's no way you can lose" Iris says
"Yes, I agree with Iris" Cilan says while trying to calm Giselle down
"Good luck Ash I wouldn't mind battling Kiawe in the finals but you're the one I've been looking forward to battling the most in this tournament right Sparky" "Pika!" Ritchie says with Sparky agreeing
"Thanks guys we'll do our best and Ritchie we'll see you in the finals" Ash says smiling with his Pokemon agreeing as Ritchie nods.
"The 10 minutes are up will Ash and Kiawe please make their way to the battlefield!" Alex calls as both boys look at the speaker and get ready to go.
"Alright I'm heading out see you guys later" Kiawe says waving goodbye to Mallow, Lana and Sophocles as he heads to the battlefield
"Return!" Ash says returning his Pokemon to their Pokeball's except for Pikachu and Raichu
"See ya guys I'm off to win" Ash says as he runs out the door with Pikachu on his shoulder and Raichu floating next to him, the group then walk back to the stands and meet up with Mallow, Lana and Sophocles they sit down and listen to Alex announce Ash and Kiawe.
"In this corner we have the fiery hot trainer Kiawe! From Panolie Ranch in Akala Island he may not have any badges, but he's proven to be a formidable challenger defeating gym leaders and tough trainers! Let's hear it for Kiawe everyone!" Alex says the crowd roars in excitement as they see Kiawe walk to the battlefield he smiles and waves but once he reaches the battlefield, he gets a serious expression.
"And in this corner, we have Ash Ketchum of Pallet Town he may only have 3 Kanto badges but like Kiawe he's proven to be a very strong trainer battling and defeating many tough opponents throughout the tournament give it up for Ash and his Pokemon Pikachu and Raichu!" Alex calls as the crowd roars in excitement as they see Ash with his Pokemon smiling and waving to the audience once Ash reaches the battlefield, he smiles at Kiawe before getting a serious expression as well.
"Man, this is going to be good I'm betting Kiawe wins" Max says
"Really you're not cheering for Ash, but you were cheering loud for him when his Gyarados battled and defeated Iris's Dragonite" Norman questions
"I just got excited seeing a Gyarados is all" Max says lying Norman nods as he looks at Brenden
"So, you think Ash is going to win Brenden?" Norman asks Brenden looks at his father smiles and nods.
Meanwhile back at the battlefield the referee begins to speak
"This will be a 4v4 battle both trainers are allowed to substitute their Pokemon anytime they want, whoever defeats all of either's sides Pokemon first will be declared the winner now please send out your first Pokemon!" The ref calls as both Ash and Kiawe send out their Pokemon
"Fletchinder Go!" "Warturtle I choose you!" Both trainers call as both Pokemon appear giving a mighty roar and get into a battle-ready stance
"So Kiawe's starting out with Fletchinder I'll have to defeat it fast" Ash says to himself
"Do we really have to watch this battle I'd rather stay in my room and go asleep" Larry (Petral) says in an annoyed tone
"I'd rather do something else as well, but we have to move carefully, and we do have orders to keep watching the boy" Justin (Archer) responds with Larry nodding
"Both trainers have sent out their Pokemon let the battle begin!" The ref calls as Ash makes the first move
"Use Rapid Spin!" Ash calls Warturtle quickly spins and hits Fletchinder doing some damage to the fire bird
"Fletchinder use Air Slash!" Kiawe calls Fletchinder flies towards Warturtle with its wings glowing it begins to fire the slashes of wind at Warturtle
"Blow it away with Hydro Pump!" Ash calls Warturtle nods it goes into its shell and starts to spin shooting water out from multiple directions getting rid of the Air Slash and is now heading toward Fletchinder.
"Use Protect!" Kiawe calls Flechinder quickly summons a protective barrier blocking the Hydro Pump
"Flechinder use fire spin!" Kiawe calls Flechinder fires the spinning flame from its mouth trapping Warturtle
"Warturtle use Hydro Pump to get out of there!" "Quick use Flame Charge!" Both trainers call before Warturtle could use Hydro Pump Flechinder quickly dives in the tornado incasing its body in fire as it hits Warturtle knocking the turtle down Flechinder's speed increases as well
"Good keep using Flame Charge!" Kiawe calls before Ash can make a command Flechinder keeps hitting Warturtle over and over again damaging the turtle
"Ash needs to do something fast this is similar to Kiawe's battle with Clay" Brock says
"Yes, only this time not only will Warturtle take damage from not only the Flame Charge but also the Fire Spin" Cilan says
"Go Kiawe!" The alola kids cheer loudly for Kiawe
"Go Ash!" Misty alongside Leaf, Giselle Iris and Joe cheer loudly for Ash Ritchie stays quiet.
"War" Warturtle says in pain getting hit again it's also breathing heavily because of being trapped in the Fire Spin its slowly losing oxygen
"Man, what can I do? If I don't think of something Warturtle's going to get knocked out" Ash says to himself, he begins to think until he gets an idea
"Warturtle hang in there I've an idea!" Ash shouts with Warturtle nodding
"I'm not sure what you're planning Ash, but my Flechinder is going to win use Flame Charge again and end it!" Kiawe calls as Flechinder gives a mighty "Flech" as it incases its body in fire again as it quickly dives into the fire spin hitting Warturtle again Ash then makes his move
"Warturtle quick grab onto Flechinder!" Ash calls Warturtle groans from getting hit but it quickly grabs Flechinder's leg as the bird carry's Warturtle out of the Fire Spin surprising the flame bird and Kiawe the fire spin also disappears.
"That was a smart move having Warturtle grab onto Flechinder's leg" Brock says
"Yes, I agree it was a good thing Warturtle acted quickly otherwise it more than likely would have been knocked out" Cilan responds with Brock nodding
"Now Hydro Pump!" Ash calls Warturtle smiles as it hides in its shell and quickly fires water in all directions hitting Flechinder causing super effective damage to the bird as it falls on the ground.
"Don't let it recover Warturtle use Skull Bash!" Ash calls as Warturtle appears from its shell falling towards Flechinder going to hit it.
"Flechinder quick use Overheat!" Kiawe calls "What's Overheat?" Ash questions as he sees Flechinder's body heat up as it fires a big wave of fire towards Warturtle, Ash tries to tell Warturtle to dodge but its unable to as it heads straight into the Overheat.
Warturtle cries out in pain as the Overheat stops Warturtle falls on the battlefield knocked out.
"Warturtle is unable to battle Flechinder's the winner!" The ref calls as the crowd gives a loud cheer Ash is left speechless
"Whew that was close we made it in time" Kiawe says as Flechinder flies to Kiawe allowing the boy to pet it as Ash returns Warturtle
"Thank you Warturtle you battled hard out there get a good rest" Ash says as he takes out his next Pokeball
"Thank you Flechinder you can take a break for now" Kiawe says returning the fire bird surprising Ash
"You returned Flechinder?" Ash asks curiously Kiawe looks at Ash and answers
"Yes, it suffered a lot of damage from Warturtle's Hydro Pump and Overheat is a move that gets weaker the more times its used so I'm going to save Flechinder for later" Kiawe responds as he takes out his next Pokeball and throws it
"Arcanine Go!" Kiawe calls sending out his Shiny Arcanine it gives a bark and goes into a battle-ready stance
"Arcanine's next huh okay then let's test out your new power Kingler I choose you!" Ash calls sending out the big crustacean it pinches its pincers together excited to battle
"Ash is using Kingler next" Joe says
"Yep, Ash said that Kingler after evolving has grown really strong it's not on Gyarados's level, but its attack power is up their" Misty responds
"Go Ashy Kins!" "Fight Ash!" "Go Ash!" Giselle, Leaf and Iris cheer on Ash
"Go Kiawe!" "Keep on fighting!" "Show that fire!" Mallow, Sophocles and Lana cheer on Kiawe
"Let the battle continue!" The ref calls as Kiawe makes the first move
"Use Sunny Day!" Kiawe calls setting up the harsh sun light
"Now Solarbeam!" Kiawe calls Arcanine quickly fires the grassy beam at Kingler
"Use Protect!" Ash calls Kingler quickly summons a protective barrier
"Arcanine use Thunder Fang!" "Kingler counter with Night Slash!" Both trainers call Arcanine covers its mouth with electricity as it shoots forward at Kingler, Kingler also shoots forward covering its giant pincer in dark energy the two Pokemon clash.
Arcanine bites hard on Kinglers pincer trying to push the crab down but Kingler isn't going anywhere as it easily overpowers Arcanine pushing it back
"Now Hydro Pump!" Ash calls Kingler quickly fires the big stream of water at the fire dog
"Dodge Arcanine then use Flame Charge!" Kiawe calls Arcanine easily dodges the Hydro Pump it then incases its body with fire as it quickly charges forward and hits Kingler doing some damage to the crab and raising Arcanine's speed.
"Hit it back with Crab Hammer!" Ash calls Kingler covers its giant claw with water and hits Arcanine across the face making the big dog skid back, the crab hammer was super effective but doesn't look like it damaged Arcanine all that much.
"Must be because of the Sunny Day its weaking Kingler's water type moves, well it's a good thing Kingler has other non-water type attacks" Ash thinks to himself as he calls for his next command
"Kingler raise your attack power with Swords Dance!" Ash calls Kingler summons 3 swords that spin around it sharply increasing its attack power
"We can raise our attack as well Arcanine use Howl!" Kiawe calls Arcanine gives a mighty howl greatly increasing its attack power as it begins to growl at Kingler
"Kingler use Rock Slide!" Ash calls Kingler roars summoning large rocks and shooting them at Arcanine
"Use Flame Charge to Dodge!" Kiawe calls Arcanine roars incasing its body with flames as it begins to easily dodge the Rock Slide
"Now Kingler use Stomping Tantrum!" Ash calls surprising Kiawe, Kingler stomps its foot hard on the battlefield shaking it, the shaking causes Arcanine to trip and gets hit by the Rockslide doing super effective damage to the fire dog the Sunny Day goes away as well.
"Great Kingler now Hydro Pump!" Ash calls Kingler quickly fires the large stream of water at Arcanine
"Use Dig then Thunder Fang!" Kiawe calls Arcanine dodges the Hydro Pump by digging a hole it then appears under Kingler and bites down hard on the Crustacean shocking it with the Thunder Fang Kingler cries out in pain as it falls on the battlefield now paralyzed
"Good job Arcanine now use Sunny Day again then use Flamethrower!" Kiawe calls Arcanine howls bringing back the harsh sunlight it then quickly fires the Flamethrower
"Dodge Kingler!" Ash calls Kingler tries to dodge but the paralysis stops it as its hit by the Flamethrower greatly damaging the crab
"So, what now Ash?" Kiawe asks with a confident smile as Ash begins to think
"Kiawe is really giving Ash a run for his money" Surge says
"Yes, if things keep going on like this Ash might lose" Violet responds
"Nah Ashy boy will figure something out" Gary says as Surge and Violet look at him
"Oh, and how do you know that?" Surge asks curiously
"Well, whenever Ash is in a tough spot, he always thinks of something crazy to get him out of it he's been showing it in his battles in this tournament and I'm pretty sure he did the same thing in your gym battles" Gary responds as Surge and Violet nod agreeing with the boy Goodshow remains silent as he continues to watch the battle interested in how Ash will break out of the situation, he's in.
"What can I do now? Kingler's going to lose If I don't think of something, Arcanine's speed and attack power have increased and now that the Sunny Day is back up it'll not only increase Arcanine's fire moves but make it easier for Arcanine to fire Solarbeam" Ash thinks to himself trying his best to think of an idea
"Sorry to interrupt your thought process Ash but I'm ending this Arcanine defeat Kingler with Solarbeam!" Kiawe calls Arcanine howls as it quickly fires the Solarbeam at Kingler.
"Kingler quick use protect!" Ash calls Kingler struggles because of the paralysis but is able to summon the protective barrier blocking the Solarbeam
"Arcanine keep up the pressure use Fire Blast!" Kiawe calls Arcanine fires the big blast of fire as Ash gets an idea
"Kingler use Hydro Pump!" Ash calls Kingler quickly fires the big stream of water it collides with the Fire Blast, the big blast of fire is slowly pushing the Hydro Pump back, but Kingler won't give up it keeps pushing until both moves explode creating steam across the battlefield Ash then gives Kingler a command, but nobody could hear it because of how loud the explosion the only ones who heard it were Pikachu, Raichu and Kingler.
"Arcanine try listening to Kingler's footsteps then strike!" Kiawe calls Arcanine nods as it closes its eyes and begins to listen
30 seconds go by the steam is starting to clear up Arcanine could not sense Kingler, once the steam is gone everyone sees that Kingler is gone, and they see Ash alongside Pikachu and Raichu smiling
"Where's Kingler?!" Kiawe calls but Ash doesn't answer as he continues to smile
"What did Ash do where's Kingler?" Mallow asks with the rest of the group and everyone in the crowd wondering as well Ritchie takes a closer look at the battlefield he then notices something and smiles as he knows where Kingler is.
"Where could it have gone?!" Kiawe says as he looks around the battlefield, he then notices a spot on the field that looks to be dugged Kiawe gasp in shock as he now knows where Kingler is he quickly makes his command.
"Arcanine ju-" "Too late Kiawe Kingler use Hydro Pump!" Ash calls before Kiawe could tell Arcanine to dodge a big stream of water appears underground hitting Arcanine launching the fire dog in the air Kingler appears and goes after Arcanine.
"Kingler use Crabhammer!" "Arcanine use Thunder Fang!" Both trainers call Arcanine goes to bite Kingler but the crab Pokemon is able to dodge as it hits Arcanine with its big claw making the fire dog fall on the battlefield knocked out.
"Arcanine is unable to battle Kingler is the winner!" The ref calls as Ash and Kingler celebrate as the crowd is shocked at what happened.
"Thank you Arcanine you did well" Kiawe says returning the mon he then looks at Ash
"So, when did you have Kingler use dig?" Kiawe asks as Ash looks at him
"It was when the Fire Blast and Hydro Pump collided creating the steam, the explosion was really loud, but I knew that was my chance I had Kingler use dig then quickly raise its attack power with Swords Dance. After Kingler dug the hole Kingler was able to recover it as well making it seem that Kingler just disappeared, once you let your guard down that's when we decided to strike." Ash responds surprising everyone at the strategy he came up with
"It was the only way I could think of to defeat Arcanine it was risky but I'm glad it worked" Ash says smiling while rubbing the back of his head
"Hmph you really do exceed my expectations" Kiawe says smiling at Ash
"That was really smart of Ash he copied my idea, but I would say he made it better" Ritchie says having an excited look in his eyes
"Oh, that's my Ashy Kins!" Giselle cheers happily
"He always comes up with the craziest ideas, but they all seem to work out" Misty says with a slight blush Leaf and Brock notice the blush but don't say anything as they nod in agreement.
"Heh good job Ashy Boy" Gary says to himself smirking
"Darn brat" Justin and Larry say to themselves in their heads
The egg slightly glows its impressed with Ash's strategy nobody notices except for Mr. Goodshow he looks at the egg then back at Ash and smiles.
"Well, you really got me good with that strategy Ash, but our battle isn't over yet Fletchinder Go!" Kiawe calls bringing back the fire bird
"Kingler return for now I'll need you for later get some good rest" Ash says returning the crab Pokemon he then takes out his next Pokeball
"Pidegotto I choose you!" Ash calls sending out the bird Pidgeotto gives a mighty "PIJO" with Fletchinder giving a mighty "Fletch" both birds glare at each other
"So, it's a battle between flying types next this should be interesting" Surge says with the other three commentators nodding
"Let the battle continue!" The ref calls as Ash and Kiawe give out their commands
"Use Quick Attack!" "Use Flame Charge!" Both trainers call as both birds charge and collide with each other. They push each other back and forth but Fletchinder wins the exchange since its Flame Charge is stronger thanks to the Sunny Day.
Fletchinder pushes Pidgeotto away, Pidgeotto shakes it off as both birds begin flying around the battlefield trying to catch the other.
"Fletchinder use Air Slash!" Kiawe calls as Fletchinder fires the slashes of wind at Pidgeotto
"Use Quick Attack to dodge then use Tailwind!" Ash calls Pidegotto is able to successfully dodge the Air Slash it then yells summoning a wind that will allow it and its teammates to make the first move.
"Now Wing Attack then Feather Dance!" Ash calls Pidgeotto quickly flies forward as it hits Fletchinder in the face with its wings and then summons multiple feathers that cover the fire bird as its attack power is lowered.
"Use Flamethrower!" Kiawe calls Fletchinder fires the hot flames from its mouth hitting Pidgeotto causing damage to the bird the Sunny Day also goes away.
"Use Fire Spin!" "Counter with Hurricane!" both trainers call Fletchinder fires the fiery tornado and Pidgeotto quickly flaps its wings summoning a hurricane both moves clash creating a giant fire tornado in the middle of the battlefield
"Fletchinder dive in the tornado and use Flame Charge to raise your speed!" Kiawe calls as the fire bird dives in the tornado quickly raising its speed
"Pidgeotto counter with Aerial Ace!" Ash calls Pidgeotto charges forward as Fletchinder shoots out from the tornado both birds collide creating a big explosion, everyone then see both birds fall on the battlefield and struggle to get up the Tailwind also goes away.
"Come on Fletchinder show your Fiery spirit!" Kiawe calls as Fletchinder is able to stand up
"You're not done yet Pidgeotto get up!" Ash calls Pidgeotto is able to stand up giving a mighty cry
"They won't last much longer" Ash and Kiawe think to themselves as they call for their final attacks
"Fletchinder use Overheat!" Kiawe calls as Fletchinder takes a deep breath as it quickly fires the big wave of fire towards Pidgeotto
"Pidgeotto dodge with Quick Attack then end this battle with Aerial Ace!" Ash calls Pidgeotto screams as it flies forward narrowly avoiding the Overheat, it then speeds up even more as it hits Fletchinder. The fire bird flies thru the sky yelling in pain as it falls back on the battlefield it tries to get up, but it's taken too much damage, so it falls in defeat.
"Fletchinder's unable to battle Pidegotto's the winner!" The ref calls as Ash and Pidgeotto celebrate
"Great job Pidgeotto!" Ash says as he pets the bird
"He really took out Kiawe's Fletchinder" Mallow says in shock
"Yeah, but now the battle for Ash is only going to get harder from here" Lana responds as Kiawe returns Fletchinder thanking it and grabbing his next Pokeball
"Not bad Ash not many trainers can defeat my Arcanine and Fletchinder but since they've fallen my last two Pokemon will get revenge for them Marowak Go!" Kiawe says bringing out his Alolan Marowak who starts to rapidly spin its bone around ready to battle.
"Pidgeotto return for now Go Kingler!" Ash says bringing back out the crab it's still injured from its battle with Arcanine but can still battle.
"Let the battle continue!" The ref calls as Ash makes the first move
"Use Hydro Pump!" Ash calls Kingler quickly fires the large stream of water at Marowak
"Dodge then use Swords Dance!" Kiawe calls Marowak easily dodges the Hydro Pump it starts to greatly increase its attack, Marowak then starts running towards Kingler
"Kingler use Dig then Hydro Pump!" Ash calls Kingler immediately digs underground and gets ready to launch the Hydro Pump
"We won't fall for that again Marowak use Earth Power!" Kiawe calls Marowak yells as it slams its bone hard on the ground cracking the battlefield and making Kingler shoot out from the ground and fly in the air.
"Cookie" Kingler says in pain
"Now end it with Thunder Punch!" Kiawe calls Marowak jumps in the air towards Kingler it begins to spin its bone really fast covering it in electricity
"Kingler counter with Crabhammer!" Ash calls Kingler nods as it quickly covers its big claw with water and heads straight for Marowak
Kingler goes to hit Marowak with the Crabhammer but Marowak dodges as it hits Kingler with the electric bone Kingler cries out in pain, but it won't go down yet, Kingler swings its arm one more time successfully hitting Marowak Kingler smiles but still feels the pain from the electricity both Pokemon then fall hard on the battlefield.
"Marowak!" "Kingler!" Kiawe and Ash call, Marowak is able to stand up but stumbles a little bit the Crabhammer did a lot of damage to it, Kingler on the other hand is laying on its back unconscious.
"Kingler is unable to battle Marowak is the winner!" The ref calls as Kiawe and Marowak cheer, with the crowd cheering in excitement
"Thanks for battling hard Kingler take a good rest" Ash says returning the crab, as he takes out his next Pokeball
"Marowak return for now, Go Turtonator!" Kiawe calls bringing out the fire turtle surprising Ash
"I thought Kiawe was going to save Turtonator for last?" Sophocles says
"He's really taking this battle seriously" Lana responds
"Turtonator's next huh alright then Pidgeotto I choose you!" Ash calls sending out the bird it gives a mighty cry still ready to battle
"Let the battle continue!" The ref calls Ash makes the first move
"Use Hurricane!" Ash calls Pidgeotto quickly flaps its wings creating a large tornado
"Turtonator use Rapid Spin and ride the Hurricane!" Kiawe calls Turtonator starts to quickly spin as it dives in the Hurricane riding it shocking Ash and the crowd.
"Now Iron Tail!" Kiawe calls before Ash could make a command Turtonator quickly shoots out from the Hurricane and hits Pidgeotto with its tail knocking the bird to the ground.
"Pidgeotto!" Ash calls Pidgeotto stands up it can still battle but it stumbles as Turtonator lands right in front of the bird glaring at it
"Finish it off with Flamethrower!" "Use Quick Attack!" Both trainers call Pidgeotto quickly shoots forward hitting Turtonators face before the fire turtle could launch the flamethrower
"Use Flamethrower!" Kiawe calls Turtonator quickly shoots the flames from its nose successfully hitting Pidgeotto the bird cries out in pain as it falls on the battlefield knocked out.
"Pidgeotto is unable to battle Turtonator is the winner!" The ref calls as Kiawe and Turtonator cheer
"Thanks for battling hard Pidgeotto get a good rest Ash says as he returns the bird, Kiawe also returns Turtonator and sends his Alolan Marowak back in.
"This isn't looking good for Ash Kiawe has two Pokemon left while Ash has one" Cilan says
"Yes, but both of Kiawe's Pokemon have taken some damage while Ash's final Pokemon is still fully healthy" Brock responds as Cilan nods
Back on the battlefield Ash takes a deep breath as he holds Charmeleon's Pokeball and looks at it.
"I'm guessing that Pokeball contains Charmeleon?" Kiawe asks as Ash looks at him
"Yeah, Charmeleon's been looking really forward to battling your fire types and especially Turtonator" Ash responds
"Yes, I've been really interested in battling your Charmeleon but just so you know Ash me, Marowak and Turtonator will be the victors of this battle" "Maro!" Kiawe states as Marowak agrees as it starts to spin its bone
"Sorry Kiawe but that's going to be us Charmeleon I Choose You!" Ash says he throws the Pokeball and out comes Charmeleon the fire lizard gives a mighty roar its excited to finally battle in the tournament.
"It's finally Charmeleon's turn" Brock says as Misty, Leaf, Iris and Giselle begin to cheer for the fire lizard, Ritchie then feels one of his Pokeball's wriggle as Zippo comes out of its Pokeball shocking everyone.
"You're interested in Ash's Charmeleon?" "Ritchie asks as Zippo nods
"Me too let's watch it battle" Ritchie responds smiling at the fire lizard Zippo agrees as it, Ritchie and Sparky look over to the battlefield
"Let the battle continue!" The ref calls as Ash makes the first move
"Charmeleon use Flamethrower!" Ash calls Charmeleon quickly fires the large stream of fire from its mouth
"Marowak knock it away with Shadow Bone!" Kiawe calls Marowak's bone glows purple as Marowak uses it to try and knock the Flamethrower away, but instead of knocking it away Marowak its being pushed back.
"What?!" Kiawe says in shock as Ash smiles
"Keep going Charmeleon!" Ash calls Charmeleon increases the power of the Flamethrower as it pushes Marowak back and consumes the Pokemon Marowak cries out in pain as it falls on the battlefield
"That's a strong Flamethrower" Kiawe says
"Yeah, my Charmeleon's been training really hard to master the move" Ash responds as Kiawe smiles
"I see but even still we won't lose Marowak use Swords Dance then Flame Wheel!" Kiawe calls Marowak quickly raises its attack as it becomes a fire wheel and heads towards Charmeleon

"Yes, but Kiawe seems calm and has a smile on his face" Lana responds as they see Kiawe returning Marowak he thanks the Pokemon and then takes out Turtonator's Pokeball before bringing out the fire turtle he looks over at Ash and Charmeleon.
"This is it Ash my final Pokemon whoever wins will go on to the finals" Kiawe says
"Yep, and that's going to be me, Charmeleon and the rest of my Pokemon!" Ash responds with Charmeleon, Pikachu and Raichu roaring in agreement Kiawe smiles
"We'll see about that prepare yourselves for my strongest Pokemon!" Kiawe says getting a serious expression as he goes to bring out Turtonator
"Here it comes Charmeleon" "Char" Ash says as he and Charmeleon get serious as well they see Kiawe put Turtonator's Pokeball on his head.
"Here it is my friend the final battle let's burn like the flames of Wela Volcanio Turtonator I Choose You!" Kiawe calls as he throws the Pokeball up in the air Turtonator appears it lands on the battlefield shaking it, shoots a small flame out of its nose and gives a mighty roar. Turtonator stops roaring as it sees Charmeleon staring at it both Turtonator and Charmeleon smile at each other they both know this will be a good battle.

"Sorry Kiawe that's going to be us let's go Charmeleon!" Ash says Charmeleon roars as well as it and Turtonator get into a battle-ready stance.
"Here it is everyone both Ash and Kiawe have one Pokemon left who will be the victor between Charmeleon and Turtonator!" Alex says as everyone looking at the battlefield are silent as they wait for the ref to make the call
"Let the battle continue!" The ref calls both Ash and Kiawe make the first move
"Use Flamethrower!" Both trainers call Charmeleon and Turtonator take a deep breath as they fire the large stream of fire at each other both flamethrowers are even in size as they collide and explode
"Use Shell Smash then Dragon Tail!" "Use Dragon Dance and counter with Dragon Claw!" Kiawe and Ash call Turtonator roars as it raises its special attack/attack and speed (also lowering its special defense/defense), Charmeleon roars as it raises its attack and speed both fire types dash forward at each other and collide as they begin to try and push the other back
"They're evenly match?!" Sophocles says in shock
"Flamethrower!" Kiawe calls Turtonator goes to launch the stream of fire at Charmeleon
"Dodge Charmeleon then use Dragon Claw!" Ash calls Charmeleon quickly let's go of Turtonator's tail as it moves to the side to dodge the flamethrower the fire lizard then gets in front of Turtonator as it jumps forward hitting the fire turtle in the face with Dragon Claw causing super effective damage and making Turtonator stumble back
"Use Dragon Tail!" Kiawe calls Turtonator stops as it quickly turns and hits Charmeleon in the face with Dragon Tail causing the fire lizard to soar through the air
"Dragon Pulse!" Kiawe calls Turtonator quickly fires the dragon beam at the air born Charmeleon
"Block it with Dragon Claw!" Ash calls Charmeleon quickly cover its claws in dragon energy as it tries to block the Dragon Pulse this creates an explosion Charmeleon safely lands on the ground but stumbles as the Dragon Pulse did do some damage to it.
"Charmeleon charge in and use Flamethrower!" Ash calls Charmeleon runs towards Turtonator while launching the Flamethrower
"Counter with your Flamethrower!" Kiawe calls as Turtonator quickly fires the Flamethrower both moves collide creating an explosion and smoke out of the smoke comes Charmeleon surprising Kiawe and Turtonator.
"Dragon Claw!" Ash calls Charmeleon goes to hit Turtonator but Kiawe smiles
"Use Shell Trap!" Kiawe calls shocking Ash and Charmeleon as Turtonator quickly turns around with its spikes facing Charmeleon the fire lizard couldn't stop as it hits Turtonator's back, the spikes then explode causing Charmeleon to fly through the air and crash back down on the battlefield clearly injured but it can still battle.
"Use Shell Smash again and use Dragon Tail!" Kiawe calls Turtonator roars increasing its special attack/attack and speed again as it starts to quickly spin and head towards Charmeleon
"Use Dig Charmeleon!" Ash calls Charmeleon quickly digs underground dodging Turtonator's attack, the fire turtle stops as it lifts its foot
"Use Earthquake!" Kiawe calls shocking Ash "Charmeleon quick get out of there!" Ash frantically calls Turtonator stomps its foot down hard causing the entire battlefield to shake, Charmeleon was able to quickly get out of the hole in time as its now in the air, but this doesn't stop Kiawe as he calls for his next attack
"Use Rapid Spin then Dragon Tail!" Kiawe calls before Ash could give Charmeleon a command the fire turtle quickly spins in the air reaching the fire lizard as it hits it back down on the ground with Dragon Tail.
"Use Bulk up then Heat Crash!" Kiawe calls Turtonator quickly bulks up its body raising its attack and defense it then covers its body in fire as it heads straight down towards Charmeleon.
"Dodge then use Dragon Dance!" Ash calls Charmeleon is able to dodge at last second as Turtonator crashes down on the battlefield creating a big crater in the battlefield, Charmeleon quickly spins increasing its attack and speed it then dives into the crater heading straight for Turtonator with its claws ready.
"Use Dragon Claw then Flamethrower!" Ash calls Charmeleon hits Turtonator in the face with Dragon Claw and quickly fire's the Flamethrower doing damage to Turtonator, normally this wouldn't cause a lot of damage, but Turtonator's special defense has decreased after using Shell Smash the fire turtle cries out in pain.
"Use Shell Trap!" Kiawe calls as Turtonator is consumed in Charmeleon's flames it turns around and jumps making sure Charmeleon hits its back both fire types are out of the crater Turtonator's spikes glow as they explode causing major damage to Charmeleon both fire types land back on the battlefield to their respective trainers sides.
Turtonator lands on its feet it stumbles a little bit but can catch itself, Charmeleon lands on its back on Ash's side it feels pain from all over its body it struggles to stand up but it's able to it pants a few times but glares at Turtonator both Pokemon look at each other.
"Charmeleon's taken a lot of damage it looks like it can barely continue" Leaf says
"Yes, while Turtonator has taken damage it looks like it can still battle" Iris responds
"Don't worry guys Ash can still win I know it" Misty says looking at Leaf and Iris as they nod Giselle alongside Joe are cheering for Ash and Charmeleon
"Go Kiawe and Turtonator!" Lana, Mallow and Sophocles cheer loudly for their friend Kiawe looks up at them he smiles he then turns back to the battlefield and gets a serious expression
"The battle's almost over Turtonator our friends are cheering us on, and we have the power of Wela Volcano and Alola on are side let's win this use your strongest Flamethrower!" Kiawe calls Turtonator roars as it fires a big Flamethrower towards Charmeleon
"Use your strongest Flamethrower as well!" Ash calls Charmeleon quickly fires the move its smaller than Turtonator's both moves clash as they begin to fight for dominance
"You're almost there Turtonator keep going!" Kiawe calls as Turtonator adds more power to the Flamethrower as its starting to push back Charmeleon's Flamethrower
"Come on Charmeleon I know you can do this!" "Pika!" "Rai!" Ash calls with Pikachu and Raichu cheering as Charmeleon begins to increase the power of Flamethrower its body is also starting to heat up.
"Go Charmeleon!" "Keep fighting!" Misty alongside Giselle, Leaf, Iris, Joe, Brock and Cilan cheer loudly for the lizard
"Go Turtonator!" Lana, Mallow and Sophocles cheer loudly for the fire turtle the rest of the crowd begins to cheer for either Charmeleon or Turtonator to win
"You hear those cheers Turtonator the crowd is cheering for us use all the fire you have and UNLEASH IT!" "TUR!" Kiawe calls Turtonator gives a mighty roar as it heats up even more using all the fire in its body making the Flamethrower much bigger as it starts to easily push back Charmeleon's Flamethrower the fire lizard stands its ground it doesn't want to lose but Turtonator's Flamethrower is too strong it wonders if it can win that's when it hears Ash's voice.
"Come on Charmeleon you can do this you've been training hard for this battle I, the other Pokemon and our friends believe in you let's keep going and reach the final now UNLEASH YOUR POWER!" Ash yells from the top of his lungs Charmeleon begins to think these past 3 weeks its spent with Ash have been the best its ever had it couldn't have imagine doing this if it was still under Damian's ownership.
Charmeleon begins to think of all the battles, training and bonds it has with Ash, his other Pokemon and his friends Charmeleon doesn't want to lose it wants to keep going make it to the finals and battle Ritchie's Zippo it won't lose here!
"CHARRRRRRR!" Charmeleon yells as its body heats up even more as its Flamethrower gets bigger shocking everyone
"Is that Charmeleon's ability Blaze?!" Leaf asks
"No, its" Ritchie says
"Overheat" Kiawe says in surprise as the Overheat is now bigger than Turtonator's Flamethrower
"That's great Charmeleon you've learned Overheat!" "Pika!" "Rai!" Ash, Pikachu and Raichu cheer as Charmeleon roars its Overheat easily destroys Turtonator's Flamethrower as it heads towards the fire turtle
"Quick use Endure!" Kiawe calls Turtonator quickly raises its defense as its consumed in the Overheat Turtonator cries out in pain as there's a big explosion that destroys most of the battlefield and cracks some of the walls. As the smoke clears everyone sees just how destroyed the battlefield is and see Turtonator bending down on one knee as it pants heavily with Charmeleon doing the same.
"Are you okay Turtonator?!" Kiawe calls Turtonator looks at its trainer as it smiles as it goes back to panting
"It's a good thing I called for Endure otherwise Turtonator would've been knocked out" Kiawe thinks to himself
"Are you okay Charmeleon?!" Ash calls Charmeleon looks at Ash giving him a smile and thumbs up as it goes back to stare at Turtonator ready to continue the battle and win. Ash nods in understanding as he calls out his next command.
"Charmeleon use Dragon Dance and charge at Turtonator!" Ash calls Charmeleon gives a mighty roar it quickly spins greatly increasing its attack power and speed as it begins to run forward at Turtonator
"Use Dragon Tail!" Kiawe calls "Dodge it!" Ash calls Turtonator lifts its tail as it goes to hit Charmeleon but the fire lizard jumps in the air dodging the move and starts falling towards the turtle.
"Use Shell Trap!" Kiawe calls Turtonator jumps with its back turning at Charmeleon
"Dodge it!" Ash calls Charmeleon steps on Turtonator's back avoiding the spikes as it jumps again it rolls forward as its now on the battlefield
"Use Body Slam!" Kiawe calls Turtonator falls forward ready to slam its big body on Charmeleon
"Dodge it then use Seismic Toss!" Ash calls Charmeleon easily dodges the body slam Turtonator crashes down on the battlefield it groans in pain as Charmeleon stands over the fire turtle and grabs its leg as it jumps in the air holding Turtonator shocking everyone.
"Charmeleon can lift Turtonator?!" Lana says in shock
"Yep, in fact the first time Charmeleon used Seismic Toss was against Ash's Gyarados in a very intense training battle winning the battle though Charmeleon fainted right after" Misty says surprising everyone except Brock they then look back to the battlefield as they see Charmeleon starting to spin Turtonator
"GOOOOOOOOOO!" "PIKA!" "RAI!" Ash, Pikachu and Raichu yell
"CHARRRRRRR!" Charmeleon yells as it stops spinning and throws Turtonator towards the battlefield causing the fire turtle to crash hard on the field creating a big crater that destroys the entire battlefield and shaking the room everyone is in.
"TURTONATOR!" Kiawe yells in concern Charmeleon lands back on the destroyed battlefield but falls on its butt panting hard, the ref goes down on the battlefield to check on Turtonator.
Everyone waits to hear the results after a few more seconds the ref makes the call.
"Turtonator is unable to battle Charmeleon is the winner allowing Ash Ketchum of Pallet Town to be our second finalist!" The ref calls the crowd is in shock but begin to cheer loud and clap their hands
"ALRIGHT!" "Pika!" "Rai!" "Char!" Ash, Pikachu, Raichu and Charmeleon give a loud cheer Charmeleon also fires a Flamethrower from its mouth in victory.
"CONGRATS ASH!" "THAT'S MY ASHY KINS!" "WAY TO GO LITTLE BRO!" Misty, Giselle, Leaf alongside the others cheer except for Ritchie who smiles and looks at Zippo.
