Bags packed Supplies all checked Respective pokemons in place three Tickets to Hoenn all Checked as the Gang Safely arrived in the hoenn region where Ash and Pikachu will enter a Competition that was about to begin in due time
The flight went smoothly so to say the least for our protagonist feedback unlike his last trip upon thier return to the lab, they made an exception. Once they've arrived Ash Goh and Feedback all stood in front of a video ad informing them about the upcoming Battle frontier FluteCup, a befuddled feedback asked ash what was so hood about the reward in response Ash stated that 'its not about the reward its about the thrill of a battle' naturally with support of pikachu
they were seen stood in front of an advertisement about the flutecup tournament Goh asked Ash which Pokemon he's going to choose with given he already has pikachu
Ash fish outs his pokeball and out came Mr Mime or Mimey his nickname
"wait! your going to chose mr mime!?" Goh surprisingly asked
"ash may I ask why in particular you chose mr mime i mean this morning he was cooking us breakfast" feedback commented but to mr Mime he gave both Feedback and Goh and sinister grin that says 'wanna bet'
Goh took noticed and recoils "whats up with that grin!?"
it was now ash's turn to ask "So goh who're you going to use?"
Goh took a moment to ponder himself "hmm well I've got scorbunny as usual and the other one would be Scyther"
a while back before thier flight to hoenn Goh took the time to choose his other pokemon back at the lab but in a dome where all his captured pokemon where held
out of all the captured pokemon feedback recognized one of them a Pinsir yep, the same pinsir that was so defensive about her berrys, and yeah it was a female
but they made out no hard feelings, Though the boys thought feedback could enter the competition but the protagonist himself said that he wasn't interested in a battel just yet so he'd plan on spectating for a bit
but not before Professor Cerise gave feedback a helpful warning to never speak to anyone else besides one's who already knew for it would lead to a consequence
they heeded his warning very well hopefully,anyhoo ash was stoked about the upcoming battle Goh could tell he really liked pokemon battles
"its kinda hard to explain its like when i have my pokemon at my side there's nothing I can't do" he said
"uh im not really sure about it" ash cuts him off by nudging him slightly teasingly
"save all that talkin to yourself thing after you had your battle"
feedback held up his finger "aren't you the one who entered him in the competition ash"
"y-yeah and without my permission" Goh added thats when a small blue feathered bird Pokemon flew past them
that immediately caught gohs attention and quickly went after it "alright a Pokemon!!"
"Scor!" scorbunny excitedly hops in the air
"lets go Scorbunny, Hoen Pokemon here we come!!"
and off they were leaving a few sand dust rises in the air as it fades in seconds
both Ash and Feedback could only Watch thier friend go
"there they go"
"whaddya expect its goh" ash added thats when they both noticed the ground was shaking, sounds of giant footsteps they bith saw a giant humanoid looking pokemon with huge orange palm hands
"what kind of a Pokemon is that thing?" feedback asked
"its a Hariyama!" Ash exclaimed and grabbed his pokedex
Hariyama the arm thrust Pokemon, a Fighting type Hariyama can send a truck flying with its giant slaps and has liking to competition that involves strength
"thats one tough pokemon" feedback comments slightly shock of the info
"i bet its in the competition" ash said and noticed a shadow towering over them both the same hariyama was staring down at them there was also someone riding on its shoulder he was the same age as Ash he had long smooth hair purple eyes sharp teeth as he stares down at both Ash and Feedback
feeling tense Feedback readies himself Ash spoke "this guy wants a battle he's got one" Pikachu began growling at the trainer
"hey" he began "could ya do me a favor and move away from the bin"
Feedback and Ash turns around and saw that they were blocking a recycling bin
"oh s'sorry!"
"nah its cool" he waved it off technically speaking his hariyama did it for him, he reached down trying to put the empty plastic bottle into the bin he reaches out, instead his face fell into it
the bottle flew and landed in Ashs hands and threw it away into the bin for him and then asked "hey are you alright?"
he pulled out his face and there was a red spot plastered on him "all good see hehehe!"
Ash did not know how to respond to that feedback was only blinking bewildered
the trainer ceased his laughter and turned his gaze at feedback "hey who's this rad looking Pokemon is he yours?"
"uh y-yeah well sort of" the last part of the boy's sentence were low
the trainer was in awestruck of feedback and began checking him out "whoah never seen anything like it must be a new type of Pokemon either way your one lucky trainer"
Feedback looked at ash mentality asking him what to do next all he got was a shrug in response and a pika from Pikachu
"oh i even forgot to introduce myself names Haj from lavaridge town this here's my main man Hariyama" he introduced with his left thumb pointing at himself along with hariyama clasping both his enormous Palms together
"Hariyama!"
"my names Ash this is Pikachu here's Mr Mimey and you've already met Feedback" ash responded gesturing his team and our Protagonist who waved
"whoa even his name is cool, feedback i like it" haj grins "nice to meet ya ash whats brings ya here wait lemme guess..the flutecup competition right?"
Ash perked up "Spot on does that mean your in?"
"sure am im about to take this competition by storm"
"nuh uh I'll be the one that'll win" Haj grins matches ash and moves down to his face "gues that means were rivals then"
"sounds like it"
haj retracts and started combing his hair "fat chance, guess I'll be seeing you and your cool looking pokemon at the field"
Ash slumps slightly and responds "sorry to disappoint you Haj but I'm only going to enter my Pikachu and Mimey"
"aw man that's a bummer oh well" thats when they were interrupted by a quadrupedal Pokémon that leaped out of nowhere, Its fur is mostly short and gray, but there is shaggy black fur on its lower legs, tail, and in two thick strips starting behind its eyes and running the length of its body. It has dark, triangular streak patterns below its eyes, which are red with yellow sclerae. Its ears are rhombus-shaped with dark insides, its nose is red, and it has gray paw pads.
it landed right in between Ash and Haj catching them off gaurd
"whoah!"
"mightyena!?"
on cue Goh came out with Scorbunny in defensive mode
The tanned skin ten year old had a PokeBall at the ready "now I've got ya go-"
when Goh was about to Haj threw himself forward keeping mightyena behind him "ohh no ya dont pal this here's mine!" he claimed as mightyena began licking its trainers cheek
"wait mightyenas your Pokemon!" Ash exclaimed
Goh was taken aback albiet a little disappointed "wait this mightyena belongs to a guy like you!?"
Haj raised his brows "huh so what ya gotta problem with mightyena being mine get your own pal and the name is Haj"
Ash steps in by greetings his traveling buddy "heya Goh noticed you got yourself a Taillow there"
"oh hey ash and yeah it was easy but i ain't going to stop here im about to catch so many more while im here!!" Goh responded enthusiastically with glitter in his eyes
Haj then started laughing "now ain't that adorable"
"hey you makin fun of me!"
"chill out dude I didn't mean anything all im saying is that its cute thats all" unbeknownst him Scorbunny didn't liked haj making fun of his trainer so he tiptoes his wat behind haj to try and kick but was met with mightyena growling at him
he changed his target and kicked Ashs behind "Ack!! what did i do!!"
Pikachu did not like that not one bit in the background Feedback could only witness on the scene and mentally sighs
the yellow mouse pokemon unleashed and electrical shock that was supposed to aim at Scorbunny instead it went to Ash shocking the poor unfortunate one
"w-why me" he groans miserably, Haj lets out a faint laugh at the scene watching Pikachu chase Scorbunny
"i take it y'all are good friends eh?"
"s-sort of but yeah" Goh said
a notification goes off of Haj's phone he grabbed it and saw a message "welp looks like the tournaments matchups are in"
that got all thier attention and they all huddled up to take a peek, on it where a list of trainers and who they were up against haj found his, who was his challenger you might ask surprise surprise it was Goh
"how convenient im up against this guy?"
that remark made Goh narrow his eye "not guy its Goh"
"eh tomato potato, sounds the same"
"it does not!!"
"Scor!"
"how about we settle it during the match" haj leaned close on Gohs face in provocation
Feedback could swore he saw smoke coming in between thier face's 'wonder how this will blow over"
here we are the flutecup tournament was underway the whole stadium was indeed packed with an anticipated crowd cheering
Goh stold in his place alongside Scorbunny across the feild where haj stood with hid trademark grin on his face as the announcer began
"alright ladies and gents up first we have Goh from Vermillion City and his opponent Haj from Lavaridge Town!"
in the crowd Ash and Pikachu were cheering for Goh next to them was Feedback with his arms crossed observing the on going competition
Ash ceased hus cheering and turned his attention to the protagonist "isn't this great feedback you get to see your first pokemon battle"
"it hasn't even started yet ash but yeah it feels exciting just by watching lets see how this goes"
on the battlefield Both trainers released thier respective Pokemons Goh sends out Scyther whereas Haj sends out his Mightyena
Goh seemed ratger tense for a bit he grabbed his Pokedex and checked something "dark types are at a disadvantage against bug types i got this"
oh how little you know Goh first rule of Pokemon battles are is that not every match is considered its advantages and disadvantages its about skills its about drive its about power we stay hungry we de- (whoa there i jutst started playing the Rock lyrics)
Back onto the ongoing battlefield the referee brought down his arm "battle Begin!"
"alright Scyther pump up Using Swords Dance!"
Scyther started swing his blades and Five blue Swords surrounds it
"Mightyena Fire Fang!!"
the quadrupedal pokemon sprints towards Scyther with its fangs bared and flames igniting biting on Scyther burning it inflicting some damages
"Scyth!!"
Ash and Pikachu mouths were in shock feedback winces "ouch"
the battle was over immediately Scyther was down as the referee made the call "Scyther is unable to Battle Mightyena wins"
Goh went to his knocked out pokemon and got down on one knee "im sorry Scyther get some rest" Scyther went back to his pokeball and went to his side of the field
he looked back and saw Haj with his usual grin and mightyena growling thats when he heard scorbunny hopping up and down showcasing his kick telling him he was ready to kick some butts
"right then Scorbunny your turn!"
"this time Goh brought out Scorbunny as his last resort"
"Double kick!"
Scorebubby hops in the air with its feet bringing down on mightyena
"Mightyena use snarl"
mightyena unleashes a ring of purple aura sending it at Scorbunny making it falter in the air Haj thinks his victory was close at hand
"Crunch lets Finnish this"
Mightyena moves up to scorbunny with its opened jaw and bit it causing an explosion
"Scorbunny!" Goh exclaimed worriedly
as the dust settles You can see that Scorbunny was knockedout "Scobunny is unable to Battle the winner of this match goes to Haj!"
the crowd bursts into cheers all except Ash Pikachu and Feedback
Goh just stood there in silence for a moment and went to his pokemon "Scorbunny..."
feedback could only watch at Goh feeling sorry "oh man.."
After Gohs defeat he immediately went to a Pokemon center then abruptly left saying he was out catching more pokemons Ash was about to when feedback reminded him about his match
and so Ash made it through beating every trainer he faced and made it to the semi finals one more and he'd win and who did he have to face well it was Haj.
haj sure showed raw strength and power during the tournament no wonder he made it
"Now its time for the Battelfrontier Flutecup championship match a battle between Pallet Town Ash Ketchum and Lavaridges Town Haj"
Feedback was in the crowd standing all alone or so he thought he was thats when he heard someone gasping for air it was Goh "whew made it"
"so how'd it go"
"it went smoothly so ash is battling haj now?"
feedback nods "yeah who knew this one's going to be a tough battle for sure"
Back in the field two trainers brought out thier respective pokemon Haj sends out hariyama and Ash sends out Mr Mime as the referee brought down his arm
"Battle begin!!"
"Hariyama force palm hit it!"
"Hariii!"
Hariyama reeled his right arm and forcefully thrust his palm sending a wave of energy at mr Mime
"Dogde it Mimey!"
Mr mime did so little as to move slightly to the left when hariyamas attack didn't do anything
"Force palm again and again!" Haj gives out while combinv his hair
in every Palm strike mr Mine easily dodges it
"hows he doing that!?" exclaimed the protagonist 'somebody better remind me not to pick with that guy"
"good job Mimey keep it up!" Ash calls out
"Mime!!"
strike after strike mr Mime once again easily dodges, hariyama was starting to look exhausted
"Mimeh use focus Punch!"
Mr mime drop down to his knee and reels back his fist clenching and glowing shot towards hariyama hitting him at hus gut
"hariyama no!"
"thats the way to do it!"
the whole crowd was astounded by mr mimes ability including our protagonist mr mime sure made it clear he wasn't a push over
"hang in there hariyama use arm thrust"
"Reflect!!" Ash countered
Hariyama's palm glowed in white energy sending it at mr mime that is until his thrust was blocked by Mimeys Barrier
"keep using arm thrust!!" Haj screamed
"use Reflect over and over!!"
hariyama kept thrusting and thrusting until there were too many of mimeys barrier much to Haj's shock
"N-no way!"
"the next move will finnish it" ash smiled brightly "Psychic!"
Mimey brought his arms together and his eyes started glowing levitating hariyama off the ground and sending him down hard knocking him unconscious
"hariyama noo!"
"Hariyama is unable to battle Mr Mime Wins"
Ash and Pikachu jumps in the air celebrating for a bit mr mime on the other hand was being modest with himself by motioning with his hand like its not a big deal
"mime mime"
Goh hasn't said a word since the start to ashs battle needless to say he was speechless
Haj sends hariyama back into his PokeBall thanking him afterwards he sends out Mightyena
"Mightyenas up lets do this mimeh!" Ash called out Mr Mine flash off his sinister grin the same one he showed to Go and Feedback
all of a sudden he threw his arms in a shape of an Ex he was forfeiting???
Feedback almost fell down feeling dumbfounded he wasn't alone though Goh and Scorbunny did so as well
"well whaddya ya know folks it looks like Mr Mime doesn't want to continue"
so did ash if your wondering i mean of course he would "I understand" he brought up his PokeBall and sucks mr mime in
guess the only option now was his good ol partner Pikachu "kay Pikachu you know the drill lets have some fun!"
"Pika-pika-pi!"
"and ash has chosen Pikachu!"
Haj was the first to make a move "Mightyena use Snarl
"Quick attack"
Mightyena once again unleashes a howl as Pikachu rushes towards him dodging mightyenas howl move and hits its side of his face
"Iron tail!"
"quick Mightyena Crunch!"
Mightyena Opened its jaw Preparing to Chow Down Pikachu not when Pikachu struck with its Iron tail
"Thunderbolt!"
"Snaril again!"
"Grrowl!"
"Pika!!"
Both attacks were launched at the same time but did not meet thier targets, Pikachus thunderbolt hit the stadiums rooftop making a hole
Feedback kept staring at the hole Pikachu made "is this what ash was talking about the thrill of a battle?..im starting to like it"
"Pikachu you alright?" Ash asked
"pika!" that sounded like a yep
"okay time to finnish this once and for all Mightyena Sucker Punch!'
with a leap Mightyena Sprints towards Pikachu witn insane speed Pikachu couldn't even follow
"mightyena now!"
Mightyena struck Pikachu at its face sending it flying
"were still fine use electroweb now!" Ash bellows
Pikachu uses electroweb as he was told but it wasn't aimed at mightyena instead right at the hole he made the force of the net made sure Pikachu didn't went through
"Whats this Pikachu used electroweb on the other way around instead of its opponent!?"
thjs left haj in a state of confusion so was mightyena "what in the?!"
"now fling using iron tail!!"
Pikachu shot himself down at mightyena with its tail glowing in chome while spinning
"Mightyena qui-"
before haj could call out an attack it was too late Pikachu made a clean hit on mightyena making an explosion
asthe dust settles revealing Mightyena Knocked out
"mightyean is unable to battle the winnder of this match goes to Pikachu" announced the referee
"and there you have it folks Asg Pikachu took the tournament by storm! its clear as day who wins this tournament Ash and Pikachu of Pallet Town give it up everyone!!"
and the crowd went wild cheering for ash and pikachu who hi fived with each other Feed cannot seem to wipe a smile on his face why would he hus friend just won a tournament of course he should be smiling
and so having Ash Defeating Haj in the Flutecuo tournament, ash was about to claim his prize a set of colorful flutes Haj suddenly went up to ash on top of his hariyama he offered his hand ina form of a handshake showing good sportsmanship
Feedback himself felt happy for ash, once it was all and done it was time they headed back home
