Chapter 12 SS. Anne Tournament Round 2
Hello everyone, here's the second round of the SS. Anne tournament enjoy!
We begin the chapter where the last one ended with Ash facing Viola as Viola calls for a command.
"Surskit use Ice Beam on the field!" Viola calls Surskit fires the Icy Beam on the field freezing it the small bug Pokémon then starts sliding on the battlefield. Ash isn't surprised as he begins to think.
"I figured she do this again as she did the same thing in her first match" Ash thinks to himself as he calls for his move.
"Raichu use Psychic!" Ash calls Raichu fires the waves of psychic energy at Surskit and catches the bug. Raichu holds it in the air and begins to spark its cheeks as Ash speaks.
"Now Thunderbolt!" Ash calls while Raichu is holding Surskit it fires the electric bolt at the bug as Viola speaks.
"Try countering with Ice Beam!" Viola calls Surskit struggles a little bit but it's able to fire the Ice Beam as it collides with Thunderbolt creating a big explosion. It blows away Raichu forcing it to let go of Surskit as the bug lands on the icy field and begins to slide again as Viola calls for her next command.
"Now use Sticky Web!" Viola calls Surskit starts to fire a thick web towards Raichu as Ash speaks.
"Dodge Raichu!" Ash calls Raichu manages to stop itself and begins to dodge the Sticky Web as Viola speaks.
"Surskit use Double team then continue firing the Sticky web!" Viola calls Surskit creates multiple copies of itself they all slide on the battlefield and start shooting the webs at Raichu making it more difficult for Raichu to dodge as it doesn't know which ones are real or fake. As Raichu continues to dodge one of the real webs makes contact with Raichu slowing it down allowing more and more webs cover the mouse Pokemon's body until it falls from the sky and lands on the battlefield.
"Rai" Raichu says it tries its best to get rid of the webs, but nothing is working making Ash worried. Back in the stands Misty cheers.
"Come on Raichu you got this!" "Wimp!" Misty and Wimpod cheer as do everyone else except for Kiawe, Ritchie, and Iris they stay quiet as they're interested in seeing how Ash will get Raichu out of there. Viola smiles and calls for her next command.
"Now Surskit let's finish this use Ice Beam!" Viola calls the double team clones go back to the original one as Surskit starts to charge the Ice Beam Ash speaks.
"Come on Raichu use Psychic and get those webs off you!" Ash says but Raichu is having a hard time concentrating its Psychic powers Viola then speaks.
"Fire!" Viola commands as Surskit fires the Ice Beam at Raichu. As the beam gets closer Ash gets an idea and speaks.
"I was hoping to save this move for later but it's better to use it now, Raichu use Discharge!" Ash calls surprising Viola as Raichu lets out a mighty "Rai!" as it fires electricity everywhere destroying the webs and shocking Surskit in the process causing super effective damage. Surskit groans in pain as Ash speaks.
"Now end it with Thunderbolt!" Ash calls before Viola can call for a command Raichu fires the electric bolt and shocks Surskit. The bug cries out in pain until the electric bolt stops, Surskit then lays on the battlefield knocked out as the ref speaks.
"Surskits unable to battle Raichu and Ash take the first win of the battle!" The ref calls Ash, Raichu, and Pikachu cheer while the crowd give a loud cheer.
"That's my Ashy Kins!" Giselle yells happily as Misty speaks.
"You did great Ash and Raichu!" "Wimp!" Misty and Wimpod cheer happily as well. Back on the battlefield Ash looks at Raichu and speaks.
"Great job Raichu let's keep going and defeat the last one" "Pika" Ash and Pikachu say with Raichu sparking its cheeks ready to still battle. Back in the stands we see a man with brown skin, has gems in his hair and looks to be wearing rock climbing attire speaks.
"Hmmm looks like Viola lost Surskit" The man says as a woman with short brown hair that looks like Viola's speaks.
"Yes, but she's just getting started" The woman says with the man nodding. They look at the battlefield and see Viola returning Surskit to its Pokeball. She then smiles and speaks.
"Your, pretty good Ash a lot of trainers have trouble whenever they battle my Surskit in the gym" Viola says with a smile as Ash nods. Viola then pulls out her next Pokeball and speaks.
"Let's see how you handle this one Vivillon let's go!" Viola, she throws the ball forward as a butterfly like Pokémon appears and takes to the sky. Its eyes look like pixels, it has pink wings with some blue, red, white, and black on them leaving the crowd in awe. Back in the stands Leaf speaks.
"It's beautiful" Leaf says with the girls nodding as Brock speaks.
"I can tell by just its wings that it's been well taken care of" Brock says as Cilan speaks.
"Yes, I hope she lets me give her Vivllion an evaluation before the day is over" Cilan says with a smile with the group now understanding what he means since Cilan did his evaluations on all of the groups Pokémon the previous night they smile and nod. Back on the battlefield the ref speaks.
"If both trainers are ready the battle can continue!" The ref says with both trainers nodding as Ash calls for the first move.
"Raichu use Thunderbolt!" Ash calls Raichu fires the electric bolt as Viola speaks.
"Vivillon use Protect!" Viola calls the bug summons a protective barrier blocking the electric bolt as Viola calls for her next command.
"Now use Light screen then Quiver Dance!" Viola calls Vivillon nods as it summons 5 protective barriers and begins to dance raising the Pokemon's Special attack/defense and speed. This makes Ash very concerned as he calls for his next move.
"Raichu get in close with Quick Attack!" Ash calls Raichu quickly flies forward and hits Vivillon causing the bug to fly back but this doesn't concern Viola.
"Now Hurricane!" Viola calls Vivillon starts flapping its wings very fast creating a large tornado that's heading straight for Raichu as Ash speaks.
"Raichu get away with Quick Attack!" Ash calls Raichu nods she tries to get away but can't and is then sucked into the tornado. Raichu cries out in pain while being spun around as Ash speaks.
"Raichu use Discharge to get out of there!" Ash call Raichu fires the big electric blast trying to destroy the Hurricane as Viola speaks.
"Oh no you don't Vivillon use Bug Buzz!" Viola calls Vivillon fires green bug energy into the Hurricane which does super effective damage to Raichu but the mouse won't give up. Raichu lets out a loud yell as it's able to destroy the Hurricane, freeing itself and blowing Vivillon away surprising Viola as she speaks.
"That's one tough Raichu" Viola says with a smile as Ash speaks.
"Now Nasty plot!" Ash calls Raichu pants a little bit then begins to increase its Special attack/defense it looks at Vivillon with Vivillon looking at it as both trainers speak.
"Psychic!" Ash and Viola call as both Pokemon fire the Psychic waves at each other. The moves don't collide as they pass by each other and hit their respective opponent knocking both Pokemon to the ground. It doesn't hurt Vivillon as much because of the Light Screen and bug types are resistant to Psychic moves allowing Vivillon to fly in the air. While Raichu on the other hand is struggling to get up because of all the damage but it eventually does and flies in the air but stumbles a little bit as Ash thinks.
"I need to end this fast" Ash thinks to himself as he calls for his next move.
"Raichu use Thunder!" Ash calls Raichu yells with all its might as it summons a cloud above Vivillon and sends a large electric bolt at the bug as Viola speaks.
"Use Protect!" Viola calls Vivillon is able to summon the protective barrier in time but when the Thunder hits it the barrier begins to crack surprising not only Viola and Vivillon but the crowd as well.
"Do it!" "Pika!" Ash and Pikachu yell with Raichu putting all of its energy into the Thunder as it breaks the protective barrier and begins to shock Vivillon. The bug begins to scream in pain as it falls on the ground Ash smiles and speaks.
"Great job Raichu!" "Pika!" Ash and Pikachu cheer as Raichu smiles back at them Viola speaks.
"Use Signal Beam!" Viola calls catching Raichu off guard as a beam of bug energy hits Raichu in the back causing the Pokémon to fall on the ground and slide towards Ash's feet knocked out shocking Ash and Pikachu. The ref then speaks.
"Raichu is unable to battle Vivillon is the winner both trainers now have one Pokémon left!" the ref says Ash picks up Raichu then looks back at Viola and Vivillon as Viola speaks.
"You almost got us thankfully Vivillon had one more Light Screen left which reduced the damage of Thunder allowing Vivillon to strike while Raichu's guard was down" Viola says as Vivillon flies back in the air it's still damaged but is overall fine. Ash looks at them and grits his teeth as Gary speaks.
"He celebrated too early he would've won if he noticed the Light Screen protecting Vivillon was still there and could've had Raichu fire another Thunder when that Light Screen disappeared." Gary says with the other commentators nodding in agreement. Back on the battlefield Ash lays Raichu down next to Pikachu, Raichu looks at them saying sorry it lost as Ash speaks.
"It's okay Raichu you did great, and we won't let your efforts go to waste so take a good rest" "Pika" Ash and Pikachu say while smiling. Raichu looks at them and smiles. Ash stands back up and brings out his next Pokémon.
"Butterfree I choose you!" Ash says he throws the ball forward as Butterfree comes out flying in the air ready to battle. Viola looks at Butterfree and speaks.
"Your Butterfree looks good Ash, but my Vivillon is better and will defeat it" Viola says while having a confident look on her face as Ash speaks.
"We'll see about that" Ash responds. The ref calls for the battle to continue as Ash speaks.
"Butterfree use Quiver Dance then Bug Buzz!" Ash calls Butterfree quickly dances raising its Special attack/defense and speed. Butterfree quickly fires the green bug energy at Vivillon as Viola speaks.
"Dodge then use Roost!" Viola calls "What's Roost?" Ash questions but gets his answer as Vivillon dodges the Bug Buzz and begins to summon feathers around it that heals its damage surprising Ash and Butterfree. Back in the stands Mallow speaks.
"What's Roost?" Mallow asks as Ritchie speaks.
"It's a move that heals up a Pokémon halfway" Ritchie responds with Mallow nodding. Back on the battlefield Viola looks at Vivillon and speaks.
"Well, it didn't heal Vivillon fully, but it should be enough to take your Butterfree down" Viola says with a smile as she and Ash call for their next moves.
"Use Quiver Dance then Signal Beam!" Both trainers call as both bugs dance raising their stats even more and fire the signal beam at each other causing the moves to collide and explode. Vivillon starts to fly forward as Viola calls for a command.
"Now Aerial Ace!" Viola calls Vivillon speeds up it goes through the smoke and lands the super effective move on Butterfree causing major damage to the Pokémon. Butterfree is knocked back a few feet as Ash speaks.
"it's okay Butterfree use Air Slash!" Ash calls Butterfree's wings glow as it starts to fire multiple slashes of wind at Vivillon, Vivillon tries its best to dodge all of them but gets hit by two Air Slashes causing super effective damage and making it groan in pain. The 2 bugs look at each other, they get their wings ready as Ash and Viola speak.
"Hurricane!" Ash and Viola call as both Pokémon flap their wings fast creating two large tornado's that collide with each other creating a massive gust of wind that affects the crowd as well.
"This is crazy!" Misty yells holding onto Wimpod tightly, as everyone else tries to hold on as well except for Giselle who's cheering.
"Go Ashy Kins! Go!" Giselle yells but is then lifted into the air and begins to fly away Misty notices as she holds onto Wimpod tightly with one arm and grabs Giselle's hand with her other arm pulling the girl to safety. Giselle looks at Misty and speaks.
"You saved me why?" Giselle asks as Misty speaks.
"I may not like you, but I don't want you to get hurt" Misty responds, surprising Giselle as she smiles. Back to the battle, Butterfree and Vivillon are pushing as hard as they can to get the upper hand as Viola speaks.
"Vivillon dive into the hurricane to increase your speed then use Aerial Ace!" Viola calls as Vivillon dives into the Hurricane it spins around inside increasing its speed as it then shoots forward at Butterfree using the move Aerial Ace Ash then speaks.
"Butterfree use Protect!" Ash calls Butterfree quickly summons a protective barrier that stops Vivillon but Vivillon pushes harder not breaking the barrier but causing both bugs to crash on the ground hard damaging them as, but they fly back in the air again and are panting heavily. Viola looks at Vivillon and Butterfree panting then calls for her next command.
" Vivillon end this battle with Signal Beam!" Viola calls Vivillon nods as it quickly fires the beam that goes to hit Butterfree but Ash then speaks.
"Butterfree dodge then use String Shot!" Ash calls Butterfree manages to narrowly dodge the Signal Beam then fires a string of slick that covers Vivillon's entire body making it fall on the ground.
"Oh no!" Viola says as Ash smiles.
"Now Hurricane!" Ash calls as Butterfree flaps its wings fast consuming Vivillon, Vivillon screams in pain as it falls on the battlefield greatly injured and confused as Viola speaks.
" Vivillon snap out of it!" Viola yells but the bug doesn't listen as it begins to slam its head continuously on the ground damaging itself more. Ash and Butterfree know this is their chance as Ash speaks.
"Now end it with Signal Beam!" Ash calls as Butterfree fires, the beam of bug energy hitting Vivillon making it cry out in pain. A few seconds later the Pokémon falls down and is finally knocked out as the ref speaks.
" Vivillon is unable to battle since Viola has no more Pokemon the winners are Butterfree and Ash" The ref calls allowing for Ash and Butterfree cheer and so do the crowd. Back in the stands the man wearing the climbing equipment speaks.
"Darn looks like your sister lost Alexa" The man says while looking at the woman named Alexa as she speaks.
"That's true Grant but from the look on Viola's face she seems satisfied" Alexa responds while have a smile on her face with Grant smiling as well as they see Viola return Vivillon and walk over to Ash who's celebrating with his Pokemon. When Viola gets close enough, she looks at the boy then speaks.
"That was a great battle Ash mind if I take a picture of you and your Pokemon?" Viola asks with a smile as Ash speaks.
"Sure" Ash says as Viola takes a picture of Ash, Pikachu, Raichu, and Butterfree. After that both Ash and Viola listen to the commentators about their battle, Viola also suggest for Ash to come to the Kalos region one day and they can have a gym battle exciting Ash they both then go back to their seats. When he makes it, his friends congratulate him as Ritchie speaks.
"Great job Ash I heard that the Kalos gym leaders are very tough you being able to defeat one of them is impressive" Ritchie says as Ash speaks.
"Thanks Ritchie she was really strong" Ash says while rubbing the back of his head he then looks over at Giselle and Misty who both wave at him making Ash smile.
"Now will Brock and Roark come to the battlefield!" Alex calls as Brock and his opponent walk to the battlefield, they go to their sides then begin staring at each other as the ref speaks.
"Please send out your first Pokémon!" The ref calls Roark and Brock grab their Pokeballs and throw them forward.
"Go! Onix!" both trainers say bringing out their giant rock snake Pokémon as they both let out a mighty roar creating a shockwave. The 2-mons then look at each other and get into battle stances. Back in the stands Kiawe speaks.
"Let's see how much stronger Onix has gotten" Kiawe says to himself while having an excited look on his face as the ref speaks.
"Battle begin!" the ref calls as Roark and Brock call for their first move.
"Use Iron Tail!" Both trainers call the two Onix's tail's glow in steel energy as they collide with each other and keep colliding sending out multiple shock waves that shakes the area. They then collide one more time and glare at each other as Brock speaks.
"Onix Iron Head!" Brock calls Onix's head is covered in steel energy and successfully hits Roark's Onix in the face causing damage and making it slide back. Roark's Onix looks at Brock's, it lifts up its tail as Roark speaks.
"Use Earth Power!" Roark calls his Onix roars as it slams its tail on the ground hard cracking the battlefield as it hits Brock's Onix making the mon roar in pain as Brock speaks.
"It's okay Onix use Screech!" Brock calls "You use Screech as well!" Roark calls as both Pokémon let out an ear-piercing scream greatly lowering each other's defenses. The 2-mons then look at each other as Roark speaks.
"Now Drill Run!" Roark calls his Onix starts to spin very fast becoming a drill it heads straight for Brock's Onix as Brock speaks.
"Dodge then hit it with Iron Tail!" Brock calls his Onix dodges to the right quickly covers its tail in steel energy and slams down hard on Roark's Onix making it crash on the ground groaning in pain. Roark's Onix then looks at Brock's it has its mouth opened as Roark speaks.
"Use Dragon Pulse!" Roark calls his Onix roars as it fires a big beam of purple dragon energy from its mouth that hits Brock's Onix in the face causing damage and making Brock's back away. The 2 rock snakes look at each other then lift up their tails as both trainers speak.
"Now Stone Edge!" Both trainers call as both Pokémon slam their tails hard on the battlefield summoning big sharp stones from the ground the stones collide and create an explosion as both trainers speak.
"Now Iron Head!" Brock and Roark call as both of their Onix charge at each other covering their heads in steel energy as they collide and begin to push each other back and forth trying to see who's more dominant. This goes on for a few more seconds until Roark's Onix starts to feel the damage from the Iron Tail it received earlier. Brock and his Onix notice and take their chance.
"GOOOOO!" Brock yells his Onix lets out a mighty roar as it pushes with all its might pushing Roark's Onix hard on the ground as Roark speaks.
"Onix!" Roark calls in worry his Onix groans in pain then looks up and sees Brock's Onix standing over it as Brock speaks.
"Now Iron Tail!" Brock calls his Onix roars as it covers its tail in steel energy then slams it down hard on Roark's creating a dust cloud. When the dust clears everyone can see that Roark's Onix is knocked out as the ref speaks.
"Roark's Onix is unable to battle Brock's Onix is the winner!" The ref calls as the crowd lets out a loud cheer while Kiawe and Grant are both impressed by Brocks Onix. Back on the battlefield Brock looks at Onix then speaks.
"Way to go Onix" Brock says happily with Onix looking at its trainer and smiles. On the other side of the battlefield Roark returns his Onix he's sad that it lost but then smiles as he looks over at Brock then speaks.
"I must say you're really strong they weren't kidding when they said you were the previous Pewter City Gym Leader" Roark says as Brock speaks.
"Thank you, it's an honor, to battle the Oreburgh Gym Leader, even though I'm not the gym leader anymore I still try to train my Pokémon with the help of my friends" Brock responds with Roark nodding.
"Good answer but let's see how you battle this one, Go Cranidos!" Roark says he throws the ball forward as a small dinosaur like Pokémon appears and lets out a mighty roar. Back in the stands Ash speaks.
"Who's that Pokémon?" Ash says as he Leaf, and Ritchie take out their Pokedex's the scan the mon.
"Cranidos, the Head Butt Pokémon. Cranidos lived in the deep woods about one hundred million years ago, and its cranium is as hard as steel." The Pokedex says. Back on the battlefield Brock looks at Cranidos and speaks.
"A Cranidos huh this could be bad can you still battle Onix?" Brock asks with the rock snake nodding as it along with Cranidos get into the battle stances the ref speaks.
"Let the battle resume!" The ref says as Brock makes the first move.
"Use Screech!" Brock calls Onix roars at Cranidos making the Pokémon cover its ears as its defense is lowered. At the commentators table Violet speaks.
"That was a smart move he made Cranidos are known for having a high attack so he's planning on ending this battle quickly" Violet says with the Gary, Goodshow, and Surge nodding. Back on the battlefield Roark speaks.
"Good move Brock but now it's our turn Cranidos use Swords Dance then Zen Headbutt!" Roark calls Cranidos roars sharply increasing its attack. It then covers its head in psychic energy, runs forward at Onix then jumps in the air and hits Onix in the face. Onix roars in pain as it falls on the ground knocked out the ref then speaks.
"Onix is unable to battle Cranidos is the winner!" The ref calls allowing Roark and Cranidos celebrate as Brock returns Onix.
"Thank you Onix take a good rest" Brock says as he takes out another Pokeball and throws it.
"Graveler it's your turn!" Brock says as his Alolan Graveler appears it lets out a mighty roar then looks at its opponent both Graveler and Cranidos smile at each other as the ref speaks.
"Let the battle resume!" the ref calls as Brock makes the first move.
"Use Rock Polish then Rollout!" Brock calls Graveler shines brightly increasing its speed it becomes a ball and starts to roll directly at Cranidos as Roark speaks.
"Use Head Smash!" Roark calls Cranidos roars it covers itself in blue energy as it charges at Graveler. Both Pokemon meet in the middle of the battlefield and collide creating an explosion. The 2-mons then slide back both taking damage from the collision as Cranidos also suffers from recoil damage but shakes it off as it wants to continue Brock then speaks.
"Graveler get in close with Rollout and use Brick Break!" Brock calls Graveler nods as it begins to roll towards Cranidos. Graveler gets closer then jumps in the air it uncurls itself Graveler covers its hands in white energy it goes to hit Cranidos as Roark speaks.
"Use Double team then Flamethrower!" Roark calls Crandios manages to dodge the Brick Break by summoning multiple clones that surround Graveler. Cranidos along with its clones then fire the stream of fire at Graveler as Brock speaks.
"Block with Stone Edge!" Brock calls Graveler quickly summons multiple sharp boulders that protects Graveler from all sides. When the real Flamethrower hits it's unable to get rid of the sharp stone as Roark speaks.
"That won't stop us Cranidos use Head Smash!" Roark calls Cranidos roars it covers itself in blue energy runs forward and smashes its head through the boulders. Cranidos takes recoil damage but shakes its head it then looks forward but doesn't see Graveler shocking it and Roark as Brock speaks.
"Now Brick Break!" Brock calls Cranidos and Roark look up and see Graveler falling towards Cranidos, all 4 of Graveler's hands are covered in white energy as Roark speaks.
"Stop it with Flamethrower!" Roark calls Cranidos fires the hot flames at Graveler but this doesn't stop Graveler as its uses all four of its arms to cut through the Flamethrower. Graveler's getting closer to Cranidos it raises its hands as Brock yells.
"GOOOOO!" Brock yells as Graveler hits Cranidos hard on the head with its 4 hands knocking the Pokémon down creating a crater and a dust cloud. When the dust everyone looks in the crater and see Graveler standing over the knocked out Cranidos the ref then speaks.
"Cranidos is unable to battle since Roark has no more Pokemon Brock and Graveler are the winners!" the ref calls the crowd cheers with Brock and Graveler cheering as well. Roark is sad that he lost but smiles as he felt that he gave a good battle he returns Cranidos and goes over to shake Brock's hand with Brock doing the same. Back in the stands Grant and Kiawe are impressed by Brock they both have smiles on their faces then speak.
"I really want to battle him" Both Grant and Kiawe say to themselves with excited looks on their faces. Back on the battlefield the commentators tell Brock and Roark their battle was great, allowing the two trainers go back to their seats. Everyone congratulates Brock on his battle with Brock thanking them.
After Brock's battle a few more battles go by they see Croagunk Mask defeat both of his opponents Pokémon with just Croagunk impressing the group and annoying Archer as that was a disguised rocket member, he beat. A few more battles happen until its Lana's turn as she's going to face a trainer named Marnia both trainers walk to their sides of the battlefield as the ref speaks.
"This will be a 2v2 battle please send out your first Pokémon!" The ref calls as Marnia brings out her Pokémon.
"Psyduck you're up!" Marnia calls as a yellow duck Pokémon appears holding its head. Lana pulls out her Pokeball and throws it forward.
"Dewpider Go!" Lana says sending out the small water spider it looks at Psyduck and gets in a battle stance as the ref speaks.
"Battle Begin!" the ref calls as Marnia makes the first move.
"Use Psychic!" Marnia calls Psyduck fires the Psychic waves at Dewpider making Lana smile.
"Use Mirror Coat!" Lana calls "It knows Mirror Coat?!" Marnia says in shock as the psychic waves hit Dewpider causing damage to the small spider. Dewpider then glows as a mirror appears in front of it as what comes out of the mirror is a big wave of energy consuming the poor Psyduck making it screams in pain. Psyduck is sent flying as it falls next to its trainer knocked out shocking Marnia and everyone else as the ref speaks.
"Psyduck is unable to battle" the ref calls while also having a shocked expression too as Lana speaks.
"Great job Dewpider!" Lana says happily as the water spider walks over to Lana allowing the girl to pet it making Dewpider happy. Marnia quickly recomposes herself she returns Psyduck to its Pokeball then grabs her next Pokeball and speaks.
"You won't be so lucky this time Tentacruel Go!" Marnia says sending out a large squid like Pokemon. Back in the stands Misty speaks.
"Whoa! it's a Tentacruel it's so cute!" Misty says with hearts in her eyes confusing everyone as Giselle speaks.
"Of course, you would like a Tentacruel in fact you look like one" Giselle says in a mocking tone as Misty looks at her and gasps. Misty then smiles and speaks.
"You really think so thank you for the complement" Misty says with a smile confusing Giselle as she thought that would've been an insult. Back to the battle Lana and Violet are also amazed by the sight of Tentacruel and have hearts in their eyes until Lana shakes her head as she remembers she's in a battle she returns Dewpider and sends out a different Pokémon.
"Marenie it's your turn!" Lana says the little Pokémon comes out it lets out a yawn then looks around its surroundings until it sees Tentacruel in front of it. Tentacruel glares at Marenie trying to intimidate it but Marenie isn't fazed as it lets out another yawn surprised Tentacruel and its trainer. Back in the stands Cilan speaks.
"Lana's Marenie doesn't look very motivated" Cilan says as Kiawe speaks.
"Yeah, it takes a little bit for Marenie to get warmed up but once it does its strong" Kiawe says with Cilan nodding. Back on the battlefield the ref calls for the battle to continue as Marnia speaks.
"Let's end this in one shot Tentacruel use Hydro Pump!" Marnia calls Tentacruel fires the large stream at Marenie as Lana speaks.
"Use Protect!" Lana calls Marenie yawns and makes a barrier protecting itself blocking the Hydro Pump as Marenie speaks.
"Fine then use Poison Jab!" Marnia calls Tentacruel covers its tentacles in poison charges at Marenie and smacks it in the air with one of its tentacles. Up in the air Marenie is not fazed as Lana speaks.
"Use Pin Missile!" Lana calls as Marenie fires multiple pin like missiles at Tentacruel. Usually this wouldn't be very effective against Tentacruel but this attack from Marenie is strong. Tentacruel groans in pain Marenie then stops its attack as it lands back on the battlefield giving another yawn making Marnia angry.
"Why you! Tentacruel use Giga Drain!" Marnia calls Tentacruel quickly shoots forward and grabs Marenie. It begins to suck its energy making Marenie angry as it gets serious Lana smiles. Back in stands Kiawe, Mallow and Sophocles smile as they speak.
"Here it comes" The 3 trainers say as Lana calls for a command.
"Marenie use Scald!" Lana calls Marenie roars and fires hot water in Tentacruel's face causing the big squid to let go of Marenie as it is now burned which will do damage over time Marina then speaks.
"It's fine Tentacruel use Sludge Bomb!" Marnia calls Tentacruel creates a large ball of poison then flings it at Marenie. As the ball gets closer Marenie smacks it away as it glares at Tentacruel scaring both the squid and its trainer. Marenie begins to take a deep breath as Lana speaks.
"Now Blizzard!" Lana calls Marenie roars as it summons a big Blizzard that completely freezes Tentacruel. Marnia has a surprised look on her face as Lana speaks.
"Now end it with Gunk Shot!" Lana calls as Marenie throws what looks like a trash can at the frozen squid breaking the ice and greatly injuring Tentacruel. Tentacruel then feels the effects of burn one more time and faints as Marnia speaks.
"You're kidding me!" Marnia yells in disbelief as the ref calls Lana and Marenie to be the winners the crowd is shocked but begin to clap for them. Lana runs over to Marenie looks at it and speaks.
"That was amazing Marenie great job!" Lana says to the Pokémon, but she notices that it fell asleep. Lana smiles as she returns the Pokémon to its Pokeball. Lana then walks over to Marina when she gets close enough, she looks at the girl and speaks.
"Thank you for today's battle" Lana says with a smile and holding out her hand. Marnia looks at Lana, smiles and speaks.
"Heh, you got me good but if we battle again, I won't lose" Marnia says with determination in her eyes and grabbing Lana's hand as the girl speaks.
"Great I'm looking forward to it" Lana says with a smile as they both shake each other's hands. Back in the stands Ash looks at Kiawe and speaks.
"Hey Kiawe has Lana always been this strong?" Ash asks as Kiawe speaks.
"Well not at first she mainly just used to fish all the time and sometimes train her Pokémon, but when we heard about this tournament 2 months ago from Professor Kukui she started taking training seriously in fact before we came here, she almost beat me in a 3v3 battle" Kiawe responds with a smile shocking everyone as Leaf speaks.
"Guess we'll have to watch out for Lana too" Leaf says as Misty nods and begins to think.
"If I get to battle Lana, will I be able to beat her?" Misty thinks to herself while having a serious expression on her face. Back on the battlefield Lana then hears the commentator's comments on her battle then goes back to her seat joining everyone else who congratulate her on her win.
A few more battles go by many trainers impressed the group Brock was extremely impressed by the trainer named Grant who defeated both his opponents Pokémon with an Onix, Iris was interested in a girl named Georgia who calls herself a dragon buster. After those battles Alex calls for Sophocles and Larry (Petral) to come to the battlefield. We see the two trainers walk to their sides of the battlefield and look at each other. Sophocles gets a bad feeling from Larry as the ref speaks.
"Please send out your first Pokémon!" The ref calls as Sophocles speaks.
"Togedemaru go!" Sophocles calls sending out the steel mouse Pokémon it sparks its cheeks ready to battle as Larry speaks.
"Hmph Go Weezing!" Larry calls sending out a big floating Pokémon with two heads. It gives Togedemaru a menacing look trying to intimate the steel mouse but the mouse glares back as the ref speaks.
"Battle begin!" The ref calls as Sophocles makes the first move.
"Use Zing Zap!" Sophocles calls Togedemaru covers its body in electricity and charges forward. It goes to hit Weezing as Larry smiles and speaks.
"Use Protect" Larry says as Weezing summons a protective barrier in front of it stopping the steel mouse Pokémon. Weezing looks at Togedemaru it opens its mouth as Larry speaks.
"Fire Blast" Larry says shocking Sophocles and Togedemaru as Weezing fires a point-blank Fire blast at Togedemaru burning the steel mouse. Togedemaru screams in pain a few seconds later it falls on the battlefield knocked out as the ref speaks.
"Togedemaru is unable to battle Weezing is the winner!" The ref calls Larry smiles while Sophocles's surprised, he then returns Togedemaru to its Pokeball. Sophocles looks at the ball and speaks.
"Thank you Togedemaru you did well" Sophocles says as Larry lets out a small chuckle making Sophocles annoyed as he looks at him and speaks.
"What's so funny?!" Sophocles asks in anger. Larry stops chuckling and looks at the boy.
"Just that you said the little mouse did well, but it actually did nothing Hehehehe" Larry responds as he laughs making Sophocles angry as he sends out his next Pokemon.
"Vikavolt Go!" Sophocles yells as he brings out the bug Pokemon who wants to get revenge for Togedemaru.
"Let's go Vikavolt!" Sophocles says with Vikavolt nodding as Larry speaks.
"This should be entertaining" Larry says with a smile. The ref calls for the battle to continue as Sophocles calls for the first move.
"Use Thunderbolt!" Sophocles calls Vikavolt fires the electric bolt it heads for Weezing as Larry speaks.
"Dodge" Larry says as Weezing easily dodges the move Sophocles speaks.
"Use Thunderbolt again!" Sophocles says but Larry smiles and tells Weezing to dodge again which it does making both Sophocles and Vikavolt angry as they keep firing Thunderbolts with Weezing dodging all of them. Back in the stands Kiawe speaks.
"This is bad he's playing with Sophocles making him angry which is clouding his judgement" Kiawe says with the group nodding as Mallow and Lana speak.
"Come on Sophocles you got this!" "Yeah, show him the power of Alola!" Mallow and Lana cheer, while the others wonder what Larry is planning by having Weezing dodge all of Vikavolt's attacks. Back on the battlefield Weezing dodges another Thunderbolt both Sophocles and Vikavolt have annoyed looks on their faces as Sophocles yells.
"STOP DODGING!" Sophocles yells in anger as Larry smirks.
"What do you mean "stop dodging"? nothing in the rules say I can't continue to dodge" Larry responds with a smirk making Sophocles angrier as he speaks.
"Well, you should attack as well!" Sophocles says as Larry puts a finger on his chin and thinks.
"Oh yeah you're right I forgot my bad Hehehehe" Larry says as he sticks his tongue out. Sophocles is now fuming in anger as he knows Larry is lying then yells.
"YOU LIAR! VIKAVOLT USE THUNDERBOLT!" Sophocles yells as Vikavolt pants a little bit then fires the move. Larry smiles and calls for a command.
"Weezing dodge then use Explosion!" Larry calls shocking Sophocles Weezing dodges the Thunderbolt it then flies in front of Vikavolt gives a sinister smile as it explodes right in its face causing Sophocles to yell.
"VIKAVOLT!" Sophocles yells in worry. When the smoke clears both Weezing and Vikavolt are on the floor knocked out and the ref makes the call.
"Weezing and Vikavolt are unable to battle since Larry has one more Pokémon and Sophocles has no more Larry is the winner!" The ref calls the crowd looks on as Sophocles walks towards Vikavolt holding it in his arms with tears in his eyes.
"Vikavolt sniff I'm sniff sorry" Sophocles says as Vikavolt tries to wipe away its trainers' tears as they then hear a laugh from Larry.
"Wow you really are weak, and a pathetic trainer tell me are you going to cry every time you lose a battle? Hehehehehe" Larry says with a laugh Sophocles looks at him but doesn't respond as Larry speaks.
"Aw what's wrong? got nothing to say?" Larry asks with a smirk as everyone hears a voice.
"Leave Him Alone!" The voice says causing everyone to turn as they see Ash alongside the rest of the group standing up with anger in their eyes Mallow then speaks.
"The battle is over you won leave Sophocles alone!" Mallow says in anger with tears in her eyes, as Larry smiles, he looks over at the commentators who are angry at him he shrugs then walks away from the battlefield and goes to sit in his seat. The group then goes to Sophocles making sure he's okay Mallow and Lana decide to walk with Sophocles to the Pokémon center as the rest of the group go back to their seats. As they're walking, they all glare at Larry who smiles and waves at them, making the group angry.
Once that was over a few more battles pass allowing the group to calm down, Alex calls for Leaf and Bob (Butch) to come to the battlefield for their battle as they both go their sides. Leaf would usually be happy to battle but she has a frown on her face as she wants to get this battle done quickly the ref then speaks.
"Trainers please send out your first Pokémon!" The ref calls as Bob goes first.
"Go Rhydon!" Bob calls sending out a large grey Bipedal rhino Pokémon it lets out a mighty roar as Leaf speaks.
"Venusaur Go!" Leaf calls sending out the large plant dinosaur who lets out a mighty roar. The 2-mons stare at each other and get into battle stances as the ref speaks.
"Battle begin!" the ref calls as Bob makes the first move.
"Use Horn Drill!" Bob calls Rhydon's horn grows larger and runs forward heading for Venusaur as Leaf speaks.
"Use Razor Leaf!" Leaf calls Venusaur fires multiple sharp leaves that hit Rhydon and instantly knock it out. Bob has a surprised look on his face he returns Rhydon then pulls out his next Pokeball.
"Fine let's try this Muk Go!" Bob says in anger bringing out the big sludge monster it looks at its trainer wanting to give him a hug, but Bob denies the sludge monster causing Leaf and the crowd to chuckle. The ref calls for the battle to continue as Bob makes the first move.
"Use Sludge Bomb!" Bob calls Muk fires the large ball of Sludge at Venusaur as Leaf speaks.
"Dodge then use Earthquake!" Leaf calls Venusaur dodges the Sludge Bomb then stomps hard on the ground shaking the battlefield causing super effective damage to Muk and knocking it out as the ref speaks.
"Muk is unable to battle Bob has no more Pokémon left making Leaf the winner!" The ref calls Leaf goes over to Venusaur and begins petting it on the head. Leaf was going to tell Bob it was a good battle, but she sees Bob walking away from the battlefield and has an angry look on his face. Leaf shrugs her shoulders as she returns Venusaur and walks back to her friends.
Meanwhile with Butch he's behind the ship below him is a large ocean he takes out Muk's Pokeball and sends the sludge monster out into the water. Muk looks at its trainer and has a confused look on its face wondering why he's releasing it. Sure, it lost but it's lost many times before and Butch didn't release it then so why? Muk thinks to itself then looks up at Butch as the man speaks.
"Your compassion for others makes you weak we don't need that in our organization and I'm tired of you failing me constantly" Butch says in a sinister tone shocking Muk Butch then walks away. Muk in the water is furious at what Butch said and begins to follow the ship from behind. Back to the battlefield we see that Kiawe's match with Cassandra (Cassidy) is almost over Kiawe already defeated her Fearow with his Fletchinder and is now using his shiny Arcanine against her Raticate. Cassandra's Raticate is panting heavily as Cassandra speaks.
"Raticate Hyper Beam!" Cassandra calls Raticate immediately fires the beam as Kiawe speaks.
"Dodge with dig then use Fire Fang!" Kiawe calls Arcanine quickly digs underground dodging the Hyper Beam a couple seconds later it appears under Raticate biting it with its teeth covered in fire. Raticate screams in pain as Arcanine throws the big rat Pokemon back on the battlefield ending the battle.
"Cassandra's Raticate is unable to battle Cassandra has no more Pokemon left making Arcanine and Kiawe the winners!" The ref calls as Kiawe nods and returns his Arcanine. Kiawe then turns his head to Larry who's still smiling Kiawe gives him a glare as he walks back to the group. When he makes it, the group tells Kiawe good job making the boy smile as Misty speaks.
"I hope Sophocles is okay he, Mallow, and Lana haven't come back yet" Misty says in a worried tone as Ash speaks.
"I'm sure they're fine Misty Mallow and Lana probably want to stay with Sophocles until his Pokemon are healed" Ash responds with Misty nodding as Giselle speaks.
"Ah as always my prince is very compassionate" Giselle says with a smile as Alex speaks.
"Now will Iris and Katie please come to the battlefield!" Alex calls as Iris and a girl with long blue hair walk down to the battlefield they go to their sides and smile at each other as the ref speaks.
"Please send out your first Pokémon!" The ref calls Katie pulls out a Pokeball and speaks.
"Misdreavus Go!" Katie says she throws the ball forward as a small ghost like Pokemon appears. Iris looks at the mon smiles and pulls out her Pokeball.
"Go Deino!" Iris says she throws the ball forward as a small Pokemon with black fur covering its face appears and gives a small roar excited to battle. The ref calls for the battle to begin as Katie speaks.
"Use Hypnosis!" Katie calls as Misdreavus fires hypnotic waves at Deino as Iris speaks.
"Blow that away with Dark Pulse!" Iris calls Deino quickly fires the Dark Pulse that easily destroys the Hypnosis. The dark beam keeps going until it hits Misdreavus making the ghost Pokemon fall on the ground groaning in pain as Iris calls for her next command.
"Now finish it with Crunch!" Iris calls Deino covers its teeth in dark energy and begins running worried. Katie calls for Misdreavus to dodge but the ghost can't move as it's flinching. Misdreavus sees Deino getting closer going to bite it as Deino keeps running it makes a sudden turn to left. Katie and Misdreavus have confused looks on their faces as Iris speaks.
"No Deino not that way!" Iris yells as Deino stops and looks back at her confused. Back in the stands Ash speaks.
"Hey how come Deino went the other way?" Ash asks as Cilan speaks.
"It's due to its ability Hustle it increases its physical moves but lowers accuracy it also doesn't help that the fur on Deino's face is covering its eyes making it difficult for it to pinpoint its opponent's location" Cilan responds with Ash nodding as he speaks.
"Sounds like a pretty difficult Pokémon to train" Ash says as Cilan speaks.
"Well Iris's dream is to be a Dragon Master, so she has to learn how to deal with these types of Pokémon" Cilan says with the group nodding. Unbeknownst to the group Georgia was listening then speaks.
"A "Dragon Master" huh?" Georgia says with a smile. Back on the battlefield Katie calls for a command.
"Misdreavus use Dazzling Gleam!" Katie calls Misdreavus begins to shine in fairy energy. The ghost then flies forward and hits Deino knocking it back and causing super effective damage. Deino slides back a few feet away and falls down groaning in pain as Iris speaks.
"Deino!" Iris calls in worry as the Pokémon struggles to stand up Katie then calls for her next command.
"Now let's finish it use Dazzling Gleam again!" Katie calls Misdrevious covers its both in fairy energy again and flies forward going to hit Deino as Iris speaks.
"Use Zen Headbutt in front of you!" Iris calls Deino quickly covers its head in Psychic energy and collides with Misdreavus. Misdreavus tries to push Deino away, but the small dragon wins the exchange and pushes Misdreavus away making it spin out of control as Iris speaks.
"Now jump forward and use Crunch!" Iris says as Deino jumps forward it covers its teeth in dark energy and goes to bite down on Misdreavus as Katie speaks.
Use Destiny Bond!" Katie calls Misdreavus quickly fires something that surrounds it and Deino when Deino bites Misdreavus there's an explosion. A couple seconds later both Pokemon fall on the ground and are knocked out as the ref speaks.
"Both Misdreavus and Deino are unable to battle" The ref calls surprising Iris. Back in the stands Ash speaks.
"Wait what happened?" Ash asks as Brock speaks.
"Before Deino bit down on Misdreavus Katie used a move called Destiny Bond, if the user faints so does the opponent" Brock says as Ash speaks.
"Darn so Deino would've won" Ash says with the group nodding. Back on the battlefield the ref speaks.
"Please send out your final Pokémon!" The ref calls as Iris and Katie send out their final Pokémon.
"Scizor Go!" "Go Druddigon!" Both girls call sending out their Pokémon. When the 2 mons appear, they let out a roar then get into battle stances. Ash, Leaf, and Gary are amazed by Scizor as the ref speaks.
"The battle may resume!" The ref calls as both trainers call for their commands.
"Scizor use Sword's dance!" "Druddigon use Hone claws!" Katie and Iris call as both Pokémon begin to sharply raise their attack power. Back in the stands Cilan speaks.
"It looks like they're both planning on ending this battle quickly" Cilan says with the group nodding. Back on the battlefield Iris calls for an attack.
"Use Rockslide!" Iris calls Druddigon roars as it fires multiple large boulders at Scizor Katie then speaks.
"Destroy them all with Metal Claw!" Katie calls Scizor's pincers glow in steel energy then flies forward and begins to easily destroy the boulders getting closer to Druddigon. As Scizor's getting closer Druddigon has its fists ready as Iris speaks.
"Now Fire Punch!" Iris calls Druddigon heats up both its fists as it runs forward going to hit Scizor as Katie speaks.
"Counter with Rock Smash!" Katie calls both of Scizor's pincers glow a bright red as it collides with Druddigon causing an explosion making the two mons slide back. Scizor gets its right fist ready as Katie speaks.
"Use Bullet Punch!" Katie calls Scizor quickly flies forward reaching Druddigon instantly. Scizor's right fist glows in steel energy as it begins to punch Druddigon 5 times in the stomach making the dragon groan in pain. Druddigon manages to grab Scizor's arm with its left hand then begins heating up its right fist. Scizor has a surprised look on its face as Iris speaks.
"Now Fire Punch!" Iris calls Druddigon punches Scizor across the face with the Fire Punch making Scizor fly backward and fall on the ground in pain from the super effective attack. Scizor stands back up it looks at Druddigon with Druddigon looking at it as they both begin to pant. Both trainers know that their Pokémon won't last for long as they give their final commands.
"Scizor Flash Cannon!" "Druddigon Flamethrower!" Both trainers as their Pokémon fire their moves that collide and create a beam struggle as the two beams fight for dominance. The 2 two attacks continue to push each other back and forth as Katie speaks.
"Put more Power into it Scizor!" Katie calls Scizor roars increasing the power of Flash Cannon and begins to easily push the Flamethrower back. Just when the Flamethrower's about to be destroyed Iris gets an idea and calls for a command.
"Druddigon run under the Flash Cannon and use Superpower!" Iris calls shocking Katie as Druddigon stops firing the flamethrower and begins to run under the Flash Cannon with its right arm glowing red. Druddigon's getting closer as Katie speaks.
"Scizor hurry counter with Bullet Punch!" Katie calls but is too late as Druddigon is right under Scizor, Druddigon's right arm's glowing a bright crimson red as Iris yells.
"DO IT!" Iris yells as Druddigon roars and slams its arm into the steel bug's stomach making Scizor cough. Druddigon then punches Scizor hard on the ground creating a giant dust cloud. When the dust clears Scizor is laying down unconscious as Druddigon lets out a mighty roar that it won the ref then speaks.
"Scizor is unable to battle Druddigon is the winner!" The ref calls as the crowd cheers Iris is happy, she runs over to Druddigon and begins petting it making the dragon happy. Katie is shocked that she lost but smiles. She returns Scizor then walks over to Iris as the two girls shake hands. The commentators tell them their battle was great as the two go back to their seats. Back in the stands we see Georgia she has an unimpressed look on her face then speaks.
"Hmph she's not that special" Georgia says to herself as she begins to walk away Alex then speaks.
"Now will Ritchie and Falkner come to the battlefield!" Alex calls as Ritchie and Falkner (a man with blue hair) walk down to the battlefield and go to their sides. The 2 trainers look at each other as the ref speaks.
"Please send out your first Pokémon!" The ref calls as Falkner sends out his Pokémon first.
"Noctowl take to the sky!" Falkner calls sending out a big Owl like Pokemon it flies in the sky until it lands on the battlefield waiting for its opponent. Falkner then looks over at Ritchie and speaks.
"So will you use your Pikachu?" Falkner asks, having a confident smile on his face as Ritchie speaks.
"You would expect that now, wouldn't you? I'm choosing this one instead Shenzi you're up!" Ritchie says he throws the ball forward as a big black dog like Pokémon appears. It crouches down low getting in a battle stance while glaring at its opponent and lets out a bark that intimidates Noctowl. Back in the stands Ash and Leaf speak.
"Who's that Pokémon?" Ash and Leaf say as they scan it with their Pokedex's.
"Mightyena the Bite Pokémon and a pure Dark type. It gives obvious signals when it is preparing to attack. It starts to growl deeply and then flattens its body. This Pokémon will bite savagely with its sharply pointed fangs." The Pokedex says Ash and Leaf look at the mon in amazement. Back on the battlefield the ref calls for the battle to begin as Falkner makes the first move.
"Use Nasty Plot!" Falkner calls Noctowl flies in the air and sharply raises its special attack as Ritchie speaks.
"Use Howl!" Ritchie calls Shenzi Howls raising its attack, Shenzi looks at Noctowl as Falkner speaks.
"Air Slash!" Falkner calls Noctowl's wings glow and begins to flap them firing multiple slashes of wind at Shenzi as Ritchie speaks.
"Dodge then use Snarl!" Ritchie calls Shenzi dodges the Air Slash effortlessly it then lets out a loud bark and fires 5 purple rings of energy at Noctowl hitting the bird and lowering its special attack as Falkner speaks.
"It's okay Noctowl use Hypnosis!" Falkner calls Noctowl quickly fires the hypnotic waves at Shenzi as Ritchie speaks.
"Dodge with Double team! Then use Thunder Fang!" Ritchie calls Shenzi creates multiple copies of itself and avoids the hypnotic waves. Shenzi along with its clones begin to run towards Noctowl with its fangs covered in electricity as Falkner speaks.
"Stop it with Hurricane then use Moonblast!" Falkner calls Noctowl yells it begins flapping its wings fast as it destroys Shenzi's copies and consumes the real one. Shenzi groans in pain and is starting to get dizzy from how fast its being spun around. Noctowl then fires a Moonblast in the Hurricane as it gets closer to Shenzi Ritchie smiles.
"Cut it in half with Iron Tail!" Ritchie calls Shenzi opens its eyes and starts coating its tail in steel energy as its able to successfully cut the Moonblast in half. The Hurricane then finally stops as Shenzi lands on the battlefield it stumbles a little bit but catches itself as it begins to growl. Falkner's a little surprised then calls for his next command.
"Use Moonblast again!" Falkner calls as Noctowl begins to charge the pink orb Ritchie speaks.
"Use Sucker Punch!" Ritchie calls as Shenzi quickly appears in front of Noctowl and smacks the owl in the face with its paw making Noctowl crash down on the ground Ritchie then calls for his next command.
"Now Thunder Fang!" Ritchie calls Shenzi starts to fall towards Noctowl with electricity in its mouth it lands on the owl and begins to bite hard on It. Noctowl squawks in pain as its being electrocuted after a few seconds the owl is then knocked out as the ref speaks.
"Noctowl Is unable to battle Shenzi is the winner" The ref calls Ritchie and Shenzi celebrate they're happy that they got the first win. Falkner then returns Noctowl he looks over at Ritchie then speaks.
"Not bad your Mightyena is strong but how will it handle my strongest Pokémon, Pidgeot take to the sky!" Falkner says he throws the ball forward as a giant bird with long flowing hair appears surprising Ash as he knows this is Pidgeotto's final evolution. Pidgeot lands on the battlefield and begins to glare at Shenzi with Shenzi glaring back. The ref calls for the battle to continue as Ritchie makes the first move.
" Shenzi Use Howl again!" Ritchie calls Shenzi lets out another howl increasing its attack power more as Falkner speaks.
"Use Quick Attack!" Falkner calls as Pidgeot disappears before it reappears in front of Shenzi and knocks it in the air. Everyone's surprised by Pidgeot's speed as Ritchie speaks.
"Use Dark Pulse!" Ritchie calls as Shenzi looks at Pidgeot and fires the dark beam as Falkner speaks.
"Dodge then use Wing Attack!" Falkner calls Pidgeot easily dodges the Dark pulse as it then flies in the air and hits Shenzi hard with its wing. Before Shenzil falls it imbeds its front claws on Pidgeot's stomach causing the bird to squawk in pain as Ritchie speaks.
"Now Thunder Fang!" Ritchie calls Shenzi covers its teeth in electricity and bites on the bird's stomach causing super effective damage and making it scream in pain as Falkner speaks.
"Use Wing attack!" Falkner calls as Pidgeot smacks Shenzi across the face with its wing again making Shenzi let go as it crashes on the ground. When Shenzi begins to stand back up Falkner speaks.
"Now finish it with Aerial Ace!" Falkner calls before Ritchie can call out a command Pidgeot quickly flies down and hits Shenzi creating an explosion. When the smoke clears everyone can see Pidgeot standing over the defeated Shenzi as the ref speaks.
" Shenzi the Mightyena is unable to battle Pidgeot is the winner!" The ref calls Falkner smiles while Pidgeot lets out a "Pidjo!" in victory. Ritchie's sad that Shenzi lost then returns it and tells it thank you. Ritchie then pulls out his next Pokeball and speaks.
"Rose Go!" Ritchie says he throws the ball forward as a large dark blue bird appears letting out a loud "Swellow!". Back in the stands Ash speaks.
"Who's that Pokemon?" Ash says as he and Leaf scan it with their Pokedex's.
"Swellow, the Swallow Pokémon. Swellow uses its impressive dive bomber speed and its large talons to capture its prey." The Pokedex says Ash, Leaf and the others look in awe at the bird. Back on the battlefield the 2 birds and their trainers look at each other in silence until the ref speaks.
"Let the battle resume!" the ref calls as Ritchie and Falkner call for a command.
"Use Aerial Ace!" both trainers call as both birds shoot forward at blinding speed then collide and back away from each other as their trainers speak.
"Use Quick Attack!" Both trainers call both birds start flying around the battlefield at blinding speed making it hard for everyone to keep up with them but can see them whenever the birds collide with each other as they make multiple shockwaves. Alex then speaks.
"Check out this speed folks!" Alex calls as the crowd cheers. Everyone sees the 2 birds clash again then back away from each other Pidgeot gets its wings ready as Falkner speaks.
"Air Slash!" Falkner calls Pidgeot's wing glow and begins flapping them fast sending out multiple slashes of wind as Rose as Ritiche speaks.
"Dodge with Double Team then use Aerial Ace!" Ritchie calls Rose is able to make the clones and dodges the Air Slash. It then shoots forward and hits Pidgeot in the stomach making the big bird cough then crash on the battlefield Falkner then speaks.
"You're not done yet Pidgeot use Hurricane!" Falkner calls Pidgeot stands back up it roars as it begins to quickly flap its wings creating a large hurricane that heads for Rose. Neither Ritchie nor Rose are fazed as Ritchie speaks.
"Rose dive into the Hurricane and use Aerial Ace!" Ritchie calls surprising Falkner, Viola, and Ash in the stands. Rose dives in the Hurricane and begins to spin around in it building up speed. Rose keeps spinning until it shoots out of the Hurricane as it crashes into Pidgeot creating a big explosion. A couple seconds later Rose flies in the air it pants a little but is overall fine, everyone looks at the battlefield as when the smoke clears Pidgeot's on the ground knocked out the ref then makes the call.
"Pidgeot is unable to battle Rose the Swellow and Ritchie are the winners!" The ref calls Ritchie, Sparky, and Rose celebrate while the crowd lets out a loud cheer. Back in the stands Viola speaks.
"That kid's good he copied the technique I used against Ash" Viola says with Grant and Alexa nodding as Grant speaks.
"Yeah, but I would say he did it better" Grant says making Viola pout she turns her head away making Grant confused while Alexa lets out a small chuckle. Meanwhile back with the group Ash speaks.
"Man, the more I see Ritchie battle the more nervous/excited I become when it's time for me to battle him" Ash says with the others nodding. Back on the battlefield Ritchie and Falkner shake hands and the commentators comment on how good their battle was. The two trainers then go back to their seats as Alex speaks.
"Now will Joe and-"Before Alex could finish someone tells him the matches have changed.
"Sorry about that folks will Misty and Giselle please come to the battlefield!" Alex calls shocking the group as Misty speaks.
"Wait but isn't Joe's match before ours?" Misty questions as Joe speaks.
"Yeah, I wonder why it changed?" Joe wonders. Ash then looks at Joe's opponent who's smirking, he doesn't get a good feeling from him as Giselle speaks.
"Well anyway now I'll show you just how superior I am to you and finally make Ashy Kins mine!" Giselle declares while pointing at Misty.
"Please I'm not going to lose to you!" Misty responds with fire in her eyes as Giselle speaks.
"Hmph well see about that come on let's go" Giselle says as her and Misty start walking towards the battlefield Ash speaks.
"Have a good battle guys!" Ash says with a smile as the two girls look back at him and nod. Once they've made it to the battlefield they go to their sides and have a serious looks on their faces as the ref speaks.
"Please send out your first Pokémon!" The ref calls as Misty and Giselle send out their Pokémon.
"Seel you're up!" "Go Vileplume!" Misty and Giselle call as both their Pokémon come out ready to battle Misty then speaks.
"Of course, you'd choose Vileplume" Misty says in annoyance as Giselle speaks.
"Well duh it has the type advantage if you're scared you can forfeit" Giselle says with a smug look on her face as Misty speaks.
"Sorry as much as you would love that I'm here to win and prove just how strong water types are this is just another challenge for us to overcome right Seel!" Misty says as Seel nods in agreement as Giselle speaks.
"Hmph fine then but don't blame me when your Seel loses" Giselle responds while having a confident smile on her face. The ref then calls for the battle to begin as Misty speaks.
"Use Ice Beam!" Misty calls, Seel quickly fires the Icy beam towards Vileplume as Giselle speaks.
"How predictable use Protect!" Giselle calls Vileplume quickly summons a protective barrier that easily blocks the icy beam. Misty then calls for her next command.
"Use Ice Beam again!" Misty calls as Seel fires another Ice beam Giselle speaks.
"Talk about annoying counter with Sludge Bomb!" Giselle calls Vileplume fires the ball of poison sludge at the Ice beam the two moves collide and cancel each other out as Giselle speaks.
"Now Sunny Day!" Giselle calls Vileplume yells summoning a bright sun in the sky as Misty speaks.
"Use Ice Beam one more time!" Misty calls Seel fires one more Ice beam it heads for Vileplume as Giselle smirks and calls for a command.
"Dodge then use Solarbeam!" Giselle calls Vileplume quickly dodges the ice beam and instantly fires the Solarbeam shocking Misty and Seel as the beam hits Seel directly creating an explosion as Misty speaks.
"Seel!" Misty cries in worry. When the smoke clears Seel struggles to get up once it does it looks back at its trainer and smiles saying that it's okay to reassure Misty. Misty smiles but knows Seel's in a lot of pain as Giselle speaks.
"I bet you're wondering what happened and I'll gladly answer" Giselle says as Misty looks at her.
"Use see my Vileplume's ability is Chlorophyll when Vileplume used Sunny Day it not only increased its speed but also shortened the charge time for Solarbeam I used this tactic to beat your sister Violet" Giselle says with a smile as Misty looks over at her sister who nods in confirmation, Giselle then continues to speak.
"Now let's end this battle shall we Vileplume use Solarbeam!" Giselle calls as Vileplume instantly fires the grassy beam. It heads for Seel as Misty speaks.
"Dodge with Aqua Jet!" Misty calls Seel quickly covers itself in water as it flies away from the Solarbeam easily dodging it as Giselle speaks.
"You won't get away that easily use Petal Blizzard!" Giselle calls Vileplume summons a blizzard of petals they head for Seel as Misty speaks.
"Keep dodging with Aqua Jet!" Misty calls Seel tries its best to dodge the petals it dodges most of them but since there's so many a few petals hit it causing super effective damage Misty then begins to think.
"If this keeps going on Seel won't last much longer, I have to think of something" Misty says herself as she begins to think of a way, she notices Vileplume's feet and gets an idea.
"Seel use Ice Beam on the battlefield!" Misty calls Seel nods it flies forward and begins to freeze the battlefield as Giselle speaks.
"Vileplume quick stop it with Solarbeam!" Giselle calls Vileplume instantly fires the beam as Misty speaks.
"Use Protect!" Misty calls Seel summons a protective barrier and blocks the Solarbeam. Seel is flung back towards Misty but is fine as it's completed its task as the battlefield is now frozen. Misty looks at Seel, she smiles and speaks.
"Great job Seel!" Misty says happily as Seel turns back to her and nods its head Giselle then speaks.
"Hmph just because you froze the battlefield means nothing Vileplume Energy Ball!" Giselle calls as Vileplume fires the ball of green energy Misty speaks.
"Seel slide to dodge then use Icy Wind!" Misty calls Seel successfully dodges the Energy Ball it then begins to slide forward and starts to blow a cold wind around Vileplume greatly injuring the Pokemon as Giselle speaks.
"Vileplume use Petal Blizzard!" Giselle calls when Vileplume's about to use the move it takes one step forward as it slips landing on its back shocking Giselle as Misty speaks.
"Now finish with Ice Beam!" Misty calls Seel nods as leaps into the air and begins charging the beam Giselle speaks.
"Oh no you don't use Solarbeam!" Giselle calls as Vileplume begins to charge the beam slower than before making Giselle confused.
"What's going on it shouldn't take this long with Sunny Da-"Giselle was about to finish but she quickly looks up and sees that the Sunny Day is gone, Giselle then looks over at Misty who's smiling. Seel's now done charging the Ice Beam it falls towards Vileplume and fires the move causing super effective damage to the mon. After that Seel quickly jumps back over to Misty's side of the battlefield as Misty speaks.
"Seeing as Sunny Day goes away after 5 turns, I just had Seel dodge all your attacks until the sun was gone making it so Solarbeam wouldn't be able to charge instantly and making Chlorophyll non active. And now that I've frozen the battlefield it'll be a lot easier for Seel to move around" Misty responds as Giselle looks at her and smiles.
"Hmph, I guess you're smart after all" Giselle says in a mocking tone Misty smiles then speaks.
"Thank you and now I'll end this. Seel slide around Vileplume and use Icy Wind!" Misty calls as Seel starts sliding around Vileplume and begins blowing an Icy wind around damaging the Pokémon and slowing it down as Giselle speaks.
"Vileplume trip it with Grass Knot!" Giselle calls Vileplume summons grass knots around it hoping Seel trips Misty then speaks.
"Seel jump in the air and dodge it!" Misty calls as Seel successfully jumps in the air dodging the grass knot and is now above Vileplume.
"Now Use Aqua Jet then end it with Ice Beam!" Misty calls before Giselle could call for her next move Seel quickly hits Vielplume in the head with Aqua Jet and fires an Ice Beam on the plant Pokemon. Vileplume cries out in pain as it then falls on its back knocked out Giselle gasp in shock as the ref speaks.
"Vileplume's unable to battle Seel is the winner!" The ref calls Misty and Seel celebrate their win while Giselle returns Vileplume. Back in the stands Brock speaks.
"That was a great strategy Misty came up with" Brock says as everyone agrees, but they then notice something with Seel.
"What's wrong Seel?" Misty asks worriedly as Seel starts to glow a bright white, getting bigger and longer the evolution stops as what was once a Seel is now a Dewgong the crowd then roars in excitement at the evolution as Alex speaks.
"This is amazing folks!" Alex says as Misty speaks.
"That's great Dewgong you evolved!" Misty says while hugging the big seal Pokémon with Dewgong hugging her as well (Wimpod also hugs Dewgong). Meanwhile, on the other side of the battlefield Giselle speaks.
"If you think just because your Seel evolved gives you the upper hand then you're wrong" Giselle says as she takes out a Pokeball and throws it.
"Jolteon it's your turn!" Giselle says sending out the spiky yellow fox Pokémon it begins to spark its fur and is ready to battle as Misty speaks.
"So, a Jolteon's next can you continue Dewgong?" Misty asks with Dewgong nodding its head as it goes back on the battlefield and stares at its opponent the ref speaks.
"Let the battle resume!" The ref calls as Giselle makes the first move.
"Jolteon let's get rid of this Ice field use Thunder!" Giselle calls Jolteon sparks its body and roars as it summons a large electric bolt from the sky that comes crashing down on the ice field destroying it as Misty speaks.
"Dewgong use Protect!" Misty calls as Dewgong summons a barrier protecting itself while the Thunder continues to destroy the ice. After a few moments the ice covering the battlefield is completely destroyed everyone is shocked by the power of Giselle's Jolteon as Giselle speaks.
"That was amazing Jolteon dear!" Giselle says happily making Jolteon smile as Misty speaks.
"That's some crazy power Dewgong use Ice Shard!" Misty calls Dewgong quickly fires multiple shards of ice that hit Jolteon causing some damage to the yellow fox as Giselle speaks.
"Hmph so it learned Ice Shard after evolving but that won't stop us, Jolteon use Quick Attack!" Giselle calls Jolteon quickly, runs forward and hits Dewgong. Dewgong groans in pain it then sees Jolteon sparking its body as Giselle speaks.
"Now Thunder!" Giselle calls as Jolteon fires a large electric bolt at Dewgong shocking the Pokémon and causing super effective. Dewgong then looks at Jolteon as Misty speaks.
"Dewgong Ice Beam!" Misty calls Dewgong takes a deep breath and fires the beam of Ice in Jolteon's face causing the yellow fox to back away. Jolteon looks at Dewgong and growls while Dewgong smiles then closes its eyes and falls on the ground knocked out the ref then speaks.
"Dewgong is unable to battle the winner is Jolteon!" The ref calls Misty has a surprised look on her face while back in the stands Leaf speaks.
"Wow Dewgong lost" Leaf says as Ash speaks.
"Yeah, but it put up a good fight" Ash responds with the others nodding. Back on the battlefield Giselle smiles and speaks.
"You did great Jolteon just one more and we'll win not only the battle, but Ashy Kins will become my boyfriend" Giselle says happily with Jolteon nodding. Misty looks at Giselle in annoyance then speaks.
"Tell me how does beating me mean Ash will be your boyfriend?" Misty asks as Giselle speaks.
"Oh, that's obvious once Ash sees how much stronger I am he'll want to go out with me" Giselle responds with a smile making Misty a little annoyed.
"Tell me do you really believe Ash is that type of person?" Misty asks as Giselle speaks.
"Well, he's my prince and he wants to be a Pokémon Master one day so he'll need a strong woman by his side and that's obviously going to be me" Giselle responds as Misty speaks.
"I see you're so blinded by the thought of Ash being some prince that you don't know what kind of person he really is" Misty says causing Giselle to look at her confused.
"What do you mean?" Giselle asks.
"What I mean is Ash isn't a prince he's just a regular boy that's rude, has bad sleeping habits, is forgetful, hot headed, and sometimes acts before thinking" Misty responds Giselle looks at her as back in the stands Ash speaks.
"Geez she didn't have to say all that" Ash says as Leaf speaks.
"I mean she's right hehehehe" Leaf says with a chuckle as Brock and Pikachu nod making Ash mad.
"Hey!" Ash says in annoyance while looking at them as they continue to chuckle. Back on the battlefield Misty continues to speak.
"Even though Ash has those flaw's he's still a kind person who cares for his friends and Pokémon" Misty says as Giselle speaks.
"So even with those flaws he's still my prince" Giselle says making Misty angrier.
"Prince this prince that can you talk about Ash without always calling him a prince?!" Misty yells as the crowd grows quiet with Giselle looking at her.
"Well, that's why I want to get to know him more" Giselle responds as Misty speaks.
"Even if you get to know Ash more that doesn't mean he'll start having feelings for you he already told you he's not looking for a girlfriend right now!" Misty responds as Giselle speaks.
"Then tell me and I want an honest answer do you have feelings for Ash?!" Giselle asks in a serious tone as Misty pulls out a Pokeball and speaks.
"How about this I'll give you my answer after this battle Vaporeon Go!" Misty says sending out the blue fox it gets in a battle stance as Giselle smiles and speaks.
"Alright I'll hold you on to that love rival" Giselle says her Jolteon gets into a battle stance and looks at Vaporeon with Vaporeon looking back the ref then speaks.
"Both trainers have one Pokémon left whoever knocks out their opponents Pokemon first will be declared the winner now let the battle continue!" The ref calls as both girls call for their moves.
"Use Thunder!" Giselle calls "Dodge with Dig!" Misty calls Jolteon fires the Thunder, but Vaporeon safely dodged by digging a hole Giselle then speaks.
"Jolteon listen carefully for where Vaporeon will pop out then use Thunderbolt!" Giselle calls with Jolteon nodding the yellow fox begins to listen while Vaporeon's digging underground as Misty speaks.
"Use Scald!" Misty calls as Vaporeon appears behind Jolteon and fires a hot stream of water towards the yellow fox who's sparking its body Giselle then speaks.
"Use Thunderbolt!" Giselle calls Jolteon fires the electric attack it collides with Scald instantly destroying it and begins to shock Vaporeon.
"Va!" Vaporeon screams out in pain from the super effective move when the electric bolt goes away Vaporeon groans in pain as Misty speaks.
"Vaporeon Aqua Ring!" Misty calls Vaporeon summons a ring of water that will heal the Pokémon over time Giselle then speaks.
"Use Thunder Wave!" Giselle calls Jolteon fires a wave of electricity towards Vaporeon as Misty speaks.
"Dodge then use Quick Attack!" Misty calls Vaporeon dodges the thunder wave and then shoots forward at Jolteon and hits the yellow fox knocking it back a few feet. Jolteon groans in pain but looks at Vaporeon as Giselle speaks.
"I'll admit love rival you're really strong, but I think it's time we end this" Giselle says with a serious expression.
"I agree" Misty says nodding her head as both girls call for their moves.
"Use Calm Mind!" Misty and Giselle yell as Vaporeon and Jolteon begin to calm their minds raising their special attack and special defense. Both girls call for Calm Mind again two more times making Vaporeon and Jolteon raise their stats even more as Misty and Giselle call out their next moves.
"Thunder!" "Hydro Pump!" Both girls call both Pokémon fire their moves that collide and create a big explosion.
"Quick Attack!" Both girls calls Vaporeon and Jolteon charge at each other and collide. They then back away from each other as both girls speak.
"Use Aqua Tail!" "Counter with Thunder Fang!" Misty and Giselle call Vaporeon goes to hit Jolteon with Aqua Tail but the yellow fox bites down hard on Vaporeon's tail and shocks it in the process Giselle then speaks.
"Great job Jolteon dear keep going!" Giselle calls Jolteon nods it continues to bite on Vaporeon's tail making the mon scream in pain as Misty speaks.
"You're not done yet Vaporeon transform your Aqua Tail into an Iron Tail!" Misty calls Vaporeon nods as it covers its tail in steel energy shocking Giselle and Jolteon. Vaporeon manages to free its tail from Jolteon's mouth and slams its tail hard on Jolteon's head making the yellow fox skid back to Giselle's feet. Giselle looks at Jolteon and asks if it's okay Jolteon stands up and is ready to continue but gives a few huffs as Giselle speaks.
"That's great Jolteon now charge up your strongest Thunder and end this battle!" Giselle calls Jolteon lets out a mighty roar as it begins charging the Thunder, Misty looks at the tired Vaporoen who's panting and knows what she has to do.
"Vaporeon Last Resort!" Misty calls Vaporeon lets out a mighty roar as well and begins to summon a large star as Giselle speaks.
"It's our win Jolteon Fire!" Giselle yells Jolteon roars and unleashes the large Thunder that heads for Vaporeon as Misty speaks.
"Vaporeon Fire!" Misty calls Vaporeon roars as it fires the giant star. Both the star and the Thunder collide and begin to fight for dominance. They keep going back and forth cracking some of the walls, destroying parts of the battlefield and affecting the stands as well as people start to hide. In the commentator's table Violet speaks.
"Why is it every time I see Misty battle it always causes destruction?!" Violet yells as she's hiding under the commentators table, the other 3 aren't joining her as they continue to watch. In the crowd Ash, Ritchie, Kiawe, Iris, Archer, Petral, Croagunk mask and a few other trainers don't take their eyes off the battle as they continue to watch waiting to see the result as Misty and Giselle yell.
"GOOOOOOOOO!" Misty and Giselle yell as both Pokémon roar and continue to push but Jolteon after receiving a lot of damage from Dewgong and Vaporeon starts losing. Misty and Vaporeon notice as Vaporeon yells giving one last push as the giant start consumes Thunder. Giselle and Jolteon have their eyes wide as the large star hits Jolteon creating a big explosion that destroys even more of the battlefield and cracking the walls. When the dust begins to clear everyone stands to see who won once it clears the judge makes the call.
"Jolteon is unable to battle Giselle has no more Pokémon making Misty and Vaporeon the winners!" The ref calls as the crowd roars Misty smiles and speaks.
"We did it Vaporeon we did it!" Misty says happily as she runs towards the blue fox and gives it a hug with Vaporeon doing the same. Meanwhile with Giselle she's surprised as she speaks.
"I can't believe it I lost" Giselle says in a shocked tone as she returns Jolteon and tells it good job, Misty notices how sad Giselle is and walks over to her after returning Vaporeon to its Pokeball, Wimpod stays back on Misty's side of the battlefield since it knows Misty and Giselle need space, Giselle looks up and sees Misty standing over her.
"Looks like I lost you got lucky this time" Giselle says with a smile as Misty speaks.
"Are you not mad at me for beating you?" Misty asks as Giselle speaks.
"Well, I am frustrated but at the same time the battle was fun, and I feel that the more I battle It'll make me closer to Ashy Kins" Giselle says as she squeals making Misty roll her eyes but is happy that Giselle is doing okay, Giselle then asks Misty a question.
"Now it's time for you to keep your promise love rival what are your feelings for Ashy Kins!" Giselle asks while pointing at Misty causing the red head's face to become red. The crowd lets out a chuckle while Ash has his hat covering his face in embarrassment as Leaf and Iris snicker at him. Back on the battlefield Misty speaks.
"Don't go saying that kind of stuff out of nowhere we need privacy!" Misty yells as Giselle laughs.
"Hehehe I know I just wanted to get a reaction out of you" Giselle says while laughing as Misty speaks.
"Geez you're annoying" Misty says as she gets a small smile. Back in the stands Joe speaks.
"Looks like they're finally becoming friends" Joe says as everyone else agrees. Back on the battlefield Misty and Giselle look at the commentators as Violet speaks.
"Great battle you two you've both gotten stronger" Violet says making both girls happy, the other commentators give their thoughts on the battle as well as Misty and Giselle walk back towards everyone else. When they make it back the group tell them good job as Ash speaks.
"Hey great battle you two" Ash says with a smile causing both girls to smile as Giselle speaks.
"Aw thank you Ashy Kins I may have lost today but I'll continue training until I get stronger" Giselle says with determination in her eyes as Misty speaks.
"Thanks Ash" Misty responds with Ash nodding Alex then speaks.
"Now will the competitors for today's final match Justin (Archer) and Joe come to the battlefield!" Alex calls as Joe speaks.
"Alright I'm going to win as well" Joe says in confidence as Ash speaks.
"Be careful Joe I'm not getting a good feeling from that Justin guy" Ash says while having a serious look on his face as Joe speaks.
"Don't worry I'll be fine" Joe responds as he and his opponent walk down to the destroyed battlefield. When they make it, they both stare at each other as the ref speaks.
"Please send out your first Pokémon!" The ref calls as both trainers bring out their Pokémon.
"Machoke Go!" "Go Hypno" Joe and Justin bring out their Pokémon the 2-mons stare at each other as Ash speaks.
"I didn't know Joe had a Machoke" Ash says as Giselle speaks.
"Yeah, he was saving it as a secret weapon and since you told him to be careful, I guess Joe is taking this battle seriously" Giselle responds with Ash nodding as Cilan speaks.
"True but Hypno is a Psychic type while Machoke is a fighting type in terms of type Joe is at a disadvantage" Cilan says as Ash speaks.
"You're right but sometimes types don't matter as long as you have a good plan" Ash responds with the group nodding as Giselle speaks.
"Yes, like always you're so wise Ashy Kins" Giselle says with hearts in her eyes. Back on the battlefield the ref speaks.
"Let the battle begin!" The ref calls as Joe makes the first move.
"Use Bulk up then Mach Punch!" Joe calls Machoke quickly bulks up its body increasing its attack/speed then shoots forward going to punch Hypno as Justin speaks.
"Protect" Justin calls as Hypno summons a protective barrier blocking Machoke's punch Justin then calls for his next command.
"Now Psychic" Justin calls Hypno holds Machoke in the air using the psychic energy on Machoke's body making the Pokemon scream out in pain as Joe speaks.
"Come on Machoke break out of it!" Joe calls even though Machoke can hear Joe's plea's it can't break out of the Psychic hold Justin then speaks.
"Now slam it on the ground a few times and send it flying to a wall" Justin calls Hypno nods as it slams Machoke on the battlefield a few times causing damage then sends the bulky Pokemon flying towards the wall behind Joe and knocking the Pokémon out as the ref speaks.
"Machoke is unable to battle Hypno is the winner!" The ref calls Joe is surprised by how fast Machoke got taken out and returns the Pokémon he looks at the ball then speaks.
"Thank you Machoke" Joe says as he brings out his next Pokémon.
"Victreebel Go!" Joe calls as the big bell plant Pokémon appears and lets out a mighty scream Justin then speaks.
"I see Hypno return for now, Go Houndoom!" Justin says he returns Hypno and brings out a black dog like Pokémon with horns on its head it stares at its opponent and begins to growl scaring Joe and Victreebel. Back in the stands Ash speaks.
"Who's that Pokémon?" Ash says as he, Leaf, and Ritchie check their Pokedex's.
"Houndoom, the Dark Pokémon a Dark/Fire type. The evolved form of Houndour. Houndoom's eerie howl is said to cause those who hear it to shudder in fear." The Pokedex says as Leaf speaks.
"Seems like a pretty scary Pokemon I hope Joe will do okay" Leaf says as everyone looks on in worry. Back on the battlefield Justin speaks.
"You may have the first move" Justin says to Joe surprising the boy as Joe speaks.
"Fine by me hope you don't regret it" Joe says with a smile as he calls for an attack.
"Victreebel use Sludge Bomb!" Joe calls as Victreebel fires a large ball of sludge at Houndoom Justin speaks.
"How weak blow that away with Dark Pulse" Justin calls Houndoom fires a stream of dark energy from its mouth that not only goes through the Sludge Bomb but hits Victreebel causing the Pokemon pain as Justin calls for his next command.
"Now Flamethrower" Justin calls Houndoom heats up its mouth and fires the stream of fire that engulfs Victreebel. Victreebel screams in pain from the super effective attack as Justin speaks.
"Keep going" Justin says as Houndoom keeps burning the Victreebel making the Pokémon scream even more shocking everyone as Joe yells.
"Stop that's enough!" Joe yells with tears in his eyes as Justin smiles, a couple seconds later he commands Houndoom to stop. When the flames go away Victreebel is seriously burned it has multiple burn marks on its body and clearly knocked out Joe then speaks.
"Victreebel" Joe says as he walks over to the Pokémon getting ready to return it to its Pokeball when Justin calls for another move.
"Use Iron Tail!" Justin calls surprising everyone as Houndoom leaps in the air its tail glows in steel energy then slams it on the already knocked out Victreebel making the Pokémon groan in pain as Joe yells.
"What are you doing?! Victreebel is already knocked out!" Joe yells as Justin smiles.
"The ref didn't say Victreebel is unable to battle yet" Justin responds with an evil smile scaring Joe as he calls for his next command.
"Now Flamethrower!" Justin calls as Houndoom fires the flames Joe doesn't have time to return Victreebel to its Pokeball he tries to shield the Pokemon from the incoming attack shocking the crowd and commentators. As Surge, Violet, and Gary were going to send out their Pokémon someone else was quicker.
"Pikachu, Raichu Use Thunderbolt!" Ash calls as both Pokémon launch the electric attack stopping the Flamethrower from hitting Joe, Ash and the rest of his friends stand in front of Joe and Victreebel protectively as Brock and Cilan check on Victreebels condition Giselle then speaks.
"How's Victreebell?" Giselle asks with worry in her voice as Brock speaks.
"This is bad Victreebel has multiple burn marks all over its body" Brock says as Cilan speaks.
"It looks like it also has some internal damage from the Iron Tail we need to get it to Nurse Joy as soon as possible if we don't Victreebel could not make it" Cilan says shocking the group as tears start to flow from Joe's eyes.
"No" Joe says tears start to flow from his eyes as Giselle goes to comfort him. Ash looks over at Justin then yells.
"What's wrong with you the battle was clearly over why did you continue attacking?!" Ash asks in anger with Misty, Leaf, Ritchie, Iris, and Kiawe standing next to him all staring at Justin with anger in their eyes as they wait for a response.
"Well like I told your friend there the ref didn't say the Victreebel was unable to battle if he did, I would've stopped" Justin responds as Leaf speaks.
"Still just by looking at Victreebel's condition after the first Flamethrower you could tell Victreebel was done battling" Leaf says with anger in her voice as Justin shrugs his shoulders and speaks.
"You kids are still naive you may think Pokémon battles are fun but in reality, they are dangerous if anything I was just showing your friend there what a real battle is like" Justin responds with a smile making the group angrier as Ash speaks.
"I'm not sure what kind of battles you've been in but that's not what I would call a battle you almost killed Victreebel!" Ash yells in anger as Justin smiles.
"Seems like you and your friends need to be taught a lesson as well Houndoom" Justin responds as Houndoom gets in a battle stance it begins to growl at the trainers and Pokémon. Pikachu, Raichu, Sparky and even Misty's Wimpod growl back at Houndoom with the three mouse Pokémon sparking their cheeks as Ash speaks.
"Oh yeah let's see you try!" Ash responds as he and his friends get ready to battle causing Cassandra, Bob, Larry, and a few other people join Justin as well holding Pokeball's in their hands ready to battle. Justin smiles as he looks at Ash, Ash looks at Justin in anger before they call for their attacks Goodshow yells.
"ENOUGH!" Goodshow yells causing everyone to look at him.
"This is supposed to be a fun tournament I will not allow you all to turn this into an all-out brawl if you do, you're all disqualified from the tournament!" Goodshow says shocking everyone making Justin return Houndoom and the trainers put their Pokeball's away. Goodshow then looks at the ref.
"Now ref make the call" Goodshow says the ref nods as he calls that Victreebel is unable to battle, and Justin can go to the next round, but this doesn't sit well with Ash or his friends as Ash speaks.
"What do you mean he can go to the next round?! He almost killed Joe's Victreebel!" Ash yells in anger as Goodshow speaks.
"Quiet Boy! Unless you want to stay in the tournament keep your mouth shut!" Goodshow yells back causing Ash to stop talking as he turns his head away in anger with his friends doing the same the egg that's been watching Ash also agrees with Ash's feelings, Goodshow then looks over at Justin.
"As for you if you pull another stunt like that again I'll not only have you disqualified from the tournament but have Officer Jenny take you to prison understood?!" Goodshow says in anger as Justin nods.
"Yes, I understand sir it won't happen again" Justin says while lying threw his teeth Goodshow can tell he's lying but leaves it alone for now.
"Now then will Nurse Joy please escort Joe and his Victreebel to the Pokemon Center" Goodshow says as a nurse joy quickly runs over, Joe returns Victreebel to its Pokeball as he, Nurse Joy, and Giselle go to the Pokemon Center Goodshow continues to speak.
"Now that the final match for today is done please take a look at who your next opponents in round 3 will be" Goodshow says as the big TV screen comes down and begins to randomize the trainers after a few moments it stops, and everyone can see who their next opponents will be.
Brock's battle will be first, and he'll be going up against Grant another rock type gym leader, Justin's and Larry's battles are next, and they'll be going against random trainers (rocket grunts in disguise), Iris goes after them, and she'll battle Georgia. After Iris Misty and Lana will battle each other, Leaf is next and she'll battle a trainer named Whitney a normal type gym leader, there are a few other match ups after Leaf's, Kiawe's battle will be with a trainer named Clay a gym leader in the Unova region, Ritchie will battle a trainer named Virgil and Ash's battle will be the last one of the day he'll face off against Croagunk Mask which makes Justin smile and Ash surprised.
Ash looks up at the stands and sees Croagunk Mask staring at him before he leaves after seeing the results everyone else leaves as well Justin then speaks.
"Good luck in your battle against Croagunk Mask if you're able to defeat him I'll crush you in the next round" Justin says while looking at Ash as Ash speaks.
"Sorry but I'm the one who'll defeat you and get revenge for Joe" Ash states as he, Pikachu, and Raichu look at Justin with determination in their eyes as Justin turns around and begins to walk away as he then thinks.
"Those eyes are just like his fathers" Justin (Archer) thinks to himself in anger as he walks away.
