"How are you-?" Lincoln began before he was cut off
"alive?" Volo said "well you see arecus cursed me forcing me to wander the earth until I help a hero save the world."
"so you're immortal?" Lincoln asked
"yes. Don't worry I've given up on trying to create the perfect world." Volo said "the only pokemon I have left are Spiritomb and the togepi's I breed."
"wow so you out lived almost your entire team." Lincoln said
"yes whoever says immortality is a gift is an idiot." Volo said
"yea." Lincoln said "so why are you here?"
"to apologize." Volo said
"what?" Lincoln asked
"I hurt you." Volo stated "so I'm here to apologize, I'm sorry for everything."
Lincoln took a deep breath before saying "I accept but that doesn't make us friends. I'm only accepting it because you lost almost everything."
"yes." Volo said "I had even started a family my daughter is nearly 85."
"that's sad." Lincoln said "anyway if you want to be truly in the clear good luck trying to apologize to dad and uncle emmet."
"ah." Volo said "good thing I'm immortal."
"yea you'll need it." Lincoln said as he finished getting ready
and with that volo took his leave
meanwhile with Ingo
the louds had taken a bathroom break when Ingo heard a knock on the door
"hello-" he said as he answered it
"hello warden." Volo said
ingo without hesitation grabbed volo by the neck and pulled him inside the room
"I am emmet who is that?" Emmet asked
"volo." Irida said as Volo turned to her
"lady Irida im surprised you're here." Volo said before noticing adaman and the wardens. "Well I see everyone is here."
"I am emmet I'm gonna snap his neck." Emmet said
"good luck with that I'm immortal." Volo said
"enough with the god complex." elsea said
"no literally arceus cursed me with immortality." Volo said "that's how I'm here."
"oh." Elesa said
"but why are you here?" Ingo asked
"I'm here to apologize." Volo said
"what?" Ingo said confused
"I lost just about everything my only pokemon are Spiritomb and the togepis I breed and my daughter is 85, while I look like I'm 20." Volo said
"would Lincoln forgive you?" Ingo asked
"he did out of pity." Volo said surprising everyone
"very well then." Ingo said "I forgive you."
"Ingo he ripped you from here!" Iris said
"yes but if he didn't I wouldn't have met lady sneasler or Lincoln. Lincoln might've not made it out of hisui." Ingo explained
everyone thought about this for a moment then emmet walked up and kicked him square in the nuts
"that was for taking Ingo." Emmet said
"fair enough." Volo said while wincing
after volo got up he was about to leave when Ingo stopped him
"you can stay if you wish." Ingo said
"really?" Volo said
"yes come sit." Ingo said
after a couple minutes the louds came back
"uh who's this?" Luan asked
"I am a friend. My name's volo." Volo introduced himself
"well then junior's match Is about to start so let's sit down." Lynn sr said
with Lincoln
Lincoln enter the arena feeling determined
"this is it the semi finals who will move on to the finals will it be Lynn loud jr or Lincoln nobori?" The announcer said
"so you're the guy who's butt I have to kick." Lynn jr said
"don't underestimate me or you'll be sorry." Lincoln said
"yea right." Lynn jr said
"this will be a 6v6 battle with no substitutions." The referee said
Lincoln sent out macaque
Lynn jr sent out a golurk
"alright time to do my lucky rituals." Lynn junior said to herself
"battle begin!" The referee said
"and it's infernape vs golurk! who will come out on top?" The announcer said
"Macaque use darkest lariat!" Lincoln yelled
"what?!?" Lynn jr said still doing her lucky rituals
macaque began to spin and rammed into golurk
"that's fine golurk can take it." Lynn jr said
until golurk got knocked out from the hit
"what?!" Lynn jr said
"golurk is unable to battle! Pokemon trainer Lynn send in your next pokemon!" The referee said
"and golurk is down from just one hit!" The announcer said
"if you keep relying on luck it won't get you far." Lincoln said
"shut up!" Lynn jr said "go peliper!"
Lynn jr sent out a peliper
"and Lynn junior sends out peliper can she take down infernape?" The announcer questioned
"(hey Lincoln wanna see something cool I've been working on?)" macaque asked
"sure let's see it." Lincoln said
suddenly macaque's shadow began to crawl out of the ground then even more shadows started crawling out of the ground
"and it appears macaque has an ability never seen before!" The announcer exclaimed
"this was not what I was expecting." Lincoln said "but I'll roll with it, use thunder punch!"
all of the shadows and macaque fists charged with electricity and slammed into peliper knocking it out cold
"peliper is unable to battle! Pokémon trainer Lynn send your next Pokémon!" The referee said
"and that's gotta hurt! Lincoln has taken out two of Lynn jr's Pokémon and she hasn't even gotten a hit in!" The announcer said
Lynn jr was getting angry
"go lucario!" Lynn jr said sending out lucario
"and Lynn jr sends out lucario can it even land a hit though?" The announcer questioned
"use fire punch!" Lincoln yelled
"dodge and use aura sphere!" Lynn jr said
lucario tried to dodge...
but macaque's shadows held it in place
macaque landed a clean hit on lucario knocking it out
"lucario is unable to battle! Pokemon trainer Lynn send in your next Pokémon!" The referee said
"the sheer power difference between Lincoln's and Lynn's teams is unbelievable!" The announcer said
with Ingo and the louds
"how is Lynn losing?!?" Lola yelled
"simple." Lisa said "Lincoln's team is stronger."
"not just that." Ingo said "Lincoln sees his Pokemon as family like siblings so their bond is incredibly strong which is important."
"no way! Lynn will turn this around!" Lana said
with Lincoln
"go volcarona!" Lynn jr yelled sending out the fire/bug type
"and Lynn jr has sent out volcarona! What could she be planning?" The announcer asked
"bug buzz!" Lynn jr said
"stone edge!" Lincoln responded
macaque slammed his fist on the ground causing a bunch of pillars of rock to rise and hit volcarona before it even has a chance to attack
"volcarona is unable to battle! Pokemon trainer Lynn send out your next pokemon!" The referee said
"and volcarona goes down too! will infernape do a clean sweep?" The announcer asked
"over my dead body!" Lynn jr said as she sent out Serperior
"and Lynn jr sends out serperior! Does she have a plan?" The announcer asked
"use dragon pulse!" Lynn jr said
"flamethrower." Lincoln said
both Pokemon fired a blast from their mouths but macaque's easily overpowered serperior's blast knocking it out
"serperior is unable to battle! Pokemon trainer lynn send out your last pokemon!" The referee said
"and serperior is down! Lynn jr's on her last Pokémon!" The announcer said
"go hydreigon!" Lynn jr yelled
she sent out the dragon type
"and Lynn jr sends out hydreigon! Can she at least knock out one of Lincoln's Pokémon?" The announcer asked
just then macaque began to laugh before saying "(you don't really think you can beat me right?)" as suddenly a shadowy tornado began to form around him forming a giant shadow monster
"and it seems infernape has one more trick up its sleeve!" The announcer said
"use close combat! Lincoln said
the shadow monster controlled by macaque proceeded to land a beat down on hydreigon knocking it out
"hydreigon is unable to battle! Which means the victory goes to Lincoln nobori!" The referee said
Lynn jr fell to her knees
"and Lincoln wins it!" The announcer exclaimed
(I thought I would win! I'm supposed to win!) Lynn jr thought to herself
"that was a good battle." Lincoln said as he offered her his hand to help her get back up
but Lynn smacked it away and ran off
later
"LINCOLN YOU MAGNIFICENT MOTHERFUCKER YOU DID IT!" Caleb exclaimed
"yea but it's not over." Lincoln said looking at the finals
Lincoln nobori vs dawn hikari
both now had the images on the screen
"let's see what you can do... akari." Lincoln said
and boom!
yea I knew I had to have Lynn get swept by Lincoln without landing a single hit in
Lincoln is forgiving volo but not a good portion of the louds why? Simple volo spent the last 400 years paying for his mistakes and actually realized he was the bad guy while the most of louds still see Lincoln as a good luck charm and still have not payed for it
while Lucy Lisa Luna and Leni will be forgiven the others (minus lily) not so much
also macaque finally showed off his shadow powers
next time is the finals!
