Wela Volcano Park Trial (Part Two)

After going up the path, Ed arrives at the platform on top of Wela Volcano Park where Kiawe waited.

"Hello. Are you here to face the trial?" asked Kiawe.

"You bet your sweet bippy I am." said Ed. After Kiawe introduced himself and explained the rules to Ed, he brings out the three Marowaks. They began dancing around until they stopped and did their pose. Then they danced around a second time and stopped. Kiawe then asked Ed which Marowak pose was different from the first one. "The middle one."

"Correct." said Kiawe. The middle Marowak stepped forward and faced Ed. "This Marowak is so pleased with your answer that it wants to battle you."

"Okay." said Ed. He pulls a pokeball out of his pocket. "Gigalith, go!" He throws Gigalith's pokeball and releases him. "Gigalith, Smackdown!" Gigalith forms a golden ball of energy and launches it at the Marowak, dealing super effective damage and more thanks to the Hard Stone Gigalith was holding. Marowak falls to the ground with swirly eyes.

"Very good. Now to the next dance." said Kiawe. The Marowak Ed battled got up and it danced around with the other two Marowaks and stopped while doing a pose. Then they did a second dance until they stopped and did another pose. "Now what's different? Is it how they were standing, holding their bones, where they were standing, or the way they were smiling?"

"They were smiling." said Ed.

"Correct. Now you must face this trainer in a Pokemon battle." said Kiawe. Magmar's trainer stepped onto the platform. He pulls out Magmar's pokeball.

"Magmar, go!" said Magmar's trainer, throwing Magmar's pokeball and releasing it.

"Go, Gigalith!" said Ed, throwing Gigalith's pokeball and releasing him again.

"Magmar, Feint Attack!" said Magmar's trainer. Magmar leaps at Gigalith with an arm raised back.

"Iron Defense!" said Ed. Gigalith's body glows white and his defense increases before Magmar punches him, not doing much damage to him. "Now use Rock Blast!" Gigalith's red crystals glowed red and the rest of his body glows silver. Gigalith launches silver rocks out of his body and two hit Magmar's chest, a third hits its shoulder, and a fourth hits its forehead, dealing super effective damage to it and knocking it out.

"Magmar!" said Magmar's trainer.

"Good work, Gigalith." said Ed. Gigalith nods in response. Magmar's trainer returned Magmar to its pokeball and gives Ed pokedollars.

"Well done. Now for the final dance." said Kiawe. The three Marowaks danced around, twirling their bones and stopped, with two of them doing a pose with Magmortar's trainer, and a third looking like it was taking a picture of them. "And now for the second dance." The Marowaks did the same dance and pose, only they were joined by the Totem Marowak. "Now what's the difference?" Ed points at the Totem Marowak.

"That Marowak over there." said Ed, pointing at the Totem Marowak.

"Correct. This Marowak is the Totem Pokemon you must defeat." said Kiawe.

"Okay." said Ed. The Totem Marowak steps forward. An aura flares around it.

"Go, Gigalith!" said Ed, throwing Gigalith's pokeball and releases him. The Totem Marowak leaps at Gigalith with an arm raised.

"Iron Defense!" said Ed. Gigalith's body glows white and raises his defense before before Marowak's chops hits Gigalith, dealing super effective damage. "Now use Power Gem!" The crystal on Gigalith's chest glows red and a red beam of energy fires out of it and it hits the Totem Marowak, dealing super effective damage to it. The Totem Marowak struggles to stay on its feet. It runs at Gigalith and strikes him with its bone, dealing super effective damage. "Smackdown!" Gigalith forms a golden ball of energy and launches it at Marowak, hitting it, and dealt super effective damage to it. Marowak falls to the ground with swirly eyes. "You did it, Gigalith!" Gigalith nods in response.

"Spectacular. Your observation skills saw the difference in the dances, and you defeated the Totem Marowak." said Kiawe. He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a Firium-Z. "This Firium-Z is yours."

"Thanks." said Ed as he takes the Firium-Z. "Oh boy! I got a Firium-Z!" Kiawe then shows Ed the pose needed to activate it and then registers Charizard into Ed's Ride Pager. Minutes later, Ed returns to the others.

"So how did you do?" asked Eddy. Ed shows everyone his Firium-Z.

"Congratulations, Ed." said Edd.

"Way to go, Ed." said Maxiley. Edd steps forward.

"I believe I will face the trial next." said Edd.

"Very well." said the woman. Edd makes his way up to the top of the volcano and soon meets Kiawe. Once the trial is explained to Edd, the first set of Marowaks come out and do two sets of dances. Edd was quick to spot the difference and the center Marowak steps forward to battle. Edd throws his Brionne's pokeball, releasing her from it.

"Brionne, Aqua Jet!" says Edd. Brionne coats her body with water, and she propels herself at the Marowak at fast speed, slamming into it and doing super effective damage, and knocks it out.

"Well done." said Kiawe. "Now for the next set of dances." A second group of Marowaks come out and do two sets of dances. Edd easily spotted the hiker in the second dance and points him out.

"Looks like you noticed me as well." said the hiker.

"Well, a human among Marowaks is pretty easy to spot." said Edd. The hiker takes out his Magmar's pokeball and throws it, releasing the Pokemon. "Brionne, use Bubble Beam!" Brionne releases a stream of bubbles from her mouth, and it hits Magmar, doing super effective damage, and knocks it out.

"Wow." exclaimed the hiker. "You and your friends are quite powerful."

"They are indeed." said Kiawe. The hiker leaves, and the third group of Marowaks come out and do two sets of dances. After the second dance, Edd spots the Totem Marowak among them and it steps forward to battle.

"Brionne, use Sing!" said Edd. Brionne sings a soothing melody which makes the Totem Marowak drowsy, and makes it fall asleep. Seeing an opportunity to try out his Waterium-Z Crystal, he places it into his Z-Ring. He then does the pose that Lana showed him, which makes Z-Energy channel into Brionne. "Now, Brionne, use Hydro Vortex!" The area becomes engulfed in water which Brionne swims through and creates a whirlpool around the Totem Marowak, which sweeps it up and takes it for a spin, doing super effective damage to it. When the whirlpool ends, the water disappears, showing an unconscious Totem Marowak. Kiawe was left speechless for a while.

"Excellent work, Island Challenger." said Kiawe once he comes to his senses. He reaches into his pocket and pulls out another Firium-Z Crystal. "You have earned this Z-Crystal." He then hands it, along with some pokedollars, to Edd.

"Thank you very much, Kiawe." said Edd. He heads to the bottom of the volcano and meets up with the others.

"Did you pass your trial?" asked Sarah.

"Yes, I was successful." said Edd as he shows everyone his Firium-Z Crystal.

"Sweet." said Eddy. "Looks like it's my turn." He moves to the start of the trail and makes his way to the top of the volcano. He meets up with Kiawe, who once again explains the trial. Once he finished, the first set of Marowaks comes out, and does two sets of dances. Like his friends did, Eddy spots the difference quickly enough. The Marowak steps forward to battle him. Eddy throws his Poliwhirl's pokeball and releases him from it. "Okay, Poliwhirl, use Rain Dance!" Poliwhirl does a dance which summons up clouds which start pouring out rain, making the area steam up. The Marowak covers itself in fire and it rolls towards Poliwhirl, slamming into him, and not doing much damage at all, partly because water types are resistant to fire, and partly because the rain was weakening its fire attacks.

"Now use Bubble Beam!" said Eddy. Poliwhirl uses a Bubble Beam attack, which was powered up because of the rain, which hits the Marowak, does super effective damage, and knocks it out. Once the battle was over, it stops raining.

"Impressive." said Kiawe. The second set of Marowaks comes out and does their dances. Eddy easily spotted the hiker who steps forward and releases his Magmar, which stands ready for battle.

"Poliwhirl, use Body Slam!" said Eddy. Poliwhirl hops up, and crashes down onto the Magmar, doing some damage, and also causing paralysis. The Magmar tries to attack, but paralysis stops it. "Now use Water Gun!" Poliwhirl sprays a strong stream of water at the Magmar, doing super effective damage, and knocking it out.

"Incredible." said the hiker. "You live up to your reputation as the Lily of the Valley Conference champion." The hiker walks away, and the third set of Marowaks comes out and does their dances. Eddy easily spots the Totem Marowak and it steps forward to battle.

"Poliwhirl, use Rain Dance again!" said Eddy. Poliwhirl summons up another batch of clouds which starts coating the area in rain. The Totem Marowak charges at Poliwhirl, and strikes it with its club. Eddy pulls his Waterium-Z Crystal out of his pocket and inserts it into his Z-Ring. He does the poses Lana showed him, making Z-Energy channel into Poliwhirl. "Poliwhirl, use Hydro Vortex!" Once again, water fills the area, and Poliwhirl swims around the Totem Marowak, forming a whirlpool which sweeps it up, and does super effective damage, plus extra thanks to the rain from Poliwhirl's Rain Dance. Once the water cleared, the Totem Marowak was unconscious.

"Congratulations, Island Challenger, on passing your Island Trial." said Kiawe. He steps forward and pulls yet another Firium-Z Crystal. "I'm going to run out of these at this rate." He then hands the Firium-Z Crystal, along with some pokedollars, to Eddy.

"Thanks." says Eddy. He then heads down the volcano trail and soon meets up with the others.

"How did it go?" asked Maxiley. Eddy responds by showing his Firium-Z Crystal.

"Congratulations, Eddy." said Edd. Once everyone congratulated Eddy, they head back to the Pokemon Center to have a celebratory lunch.

"Here's to another island trial completed." said Eddy as he raises a cup of Pinap Juice.

"Here, here." said Edd.

"Yeah!" said Ed. The Eds, Sarah, and Jimmy have completed another island trial, bringing them one step closer to competing in the Alola League and the Juniors Division. What other adventures await them as their Island Challenge continues?
