Battle on top Silph Co. Gary vs Damian

Hello everyone, this chapter will mainly focus on Gary and Damian's battle with some moments of Riley. I've been really excited to write this battle, so I hope you all enjoy!

We begin the chapter where the last one ended with Gary's Scizor and Damian's Houndoom colliding with Brick Break and Fire Fang there's an explosion causing both mons to skid back to their trainer's side Damian then makes a command.

"Use Nasty Plot then Flamethrower!" Damian calls Houndoom roars greatly increasing its special attack it then fires the stream of fire.

"Dodge Scizor then use Fury Cutter!" Gary calls Scizor easily dodges the Flamethrower its pinchers glow a bright red as it quickly flies towards Houndoom and punches it making the hell hound skid back as Scizor's pincers glow brighter with the power of its Fury Cutter increasing.

"Use Fury Cutter again Scizor!" Gary calls as Scizor shoots forward.

"Jump Houndoom then use Flamethrower!" Damian calls Houndoom manages to dodge the move getting above Scizor it then falls towards the steel bug getting ready to fire the flames.

"Use Protect then U turn!" Gary calls as Houndoom launches the Flamethrower Scizor summons a protective barrier blocking the Flamethrower once the move stops its pinchers glow in green bug energy as it punches Houndoom in the stomach causing damage as it quickly goes back to its Pokeball Damian quickly makes a command.

"Quick use Fire Blast!" Damian calls as Houndoom fires the big Blast of fire to burn Scizor, but the steel safely makes it back to its Pokeball in time as the blast of fire gets closer to Gary one of his Pokeball's opens as a fire dog appears absorbing the Fire Blast shocking Damian as Gary smiles.

"Good boy Arcanine" Gary says as the fire dog makes itself known giving a mighty bark it then crouches down low growling at Houndoom with the hell hound growling back at it.

"So, your Arcanine has the Flash fire ability you knew I would try to attack Scizor with a fire move as it was going back in its Pokeball" Damian says as Gary nods.

"Well, that won't stop us Houndoom Dark Pulse!" Damian calls as the hell hound fires the dark energy towards Arcanine

"Use Flamethrower then Extreme Speed!" Gary calls Arcanine's mouth heats up as it fires a big Flamethrower that easily destroys the Dark Pulse the fire dog then shoots forward hitting Houndoom knocking it back.

"Now Arcanine use Play Rough!" Gary calls Arcanine barks as it runs towards Houndoom

"Use Smog!" Damian calls as Houndoom fires a poison cloud.

"Dodge with Dig Arcanine!" Gary calls Arcanine quickly digs underground avoiding the Smog.

"Jump in the air Houndoom!" Damian calls Houndoom jumps high in the air as Arcanine appears going after Houndoom

"Extremespeed!" "Protect!" Both trainers call as Arcanine speeds up Houndoom summons a protective barrier blocking the move

"Houndoom Thunder Fang!" Damian calls Houndoom electrifies its teeth as it bites down on Arcanine shocking it.

"Play Rough Arcanine!" Gary calls Arcanine barks as it begins to hit Houndoom repeatedly it then hits Houndoom one more time knocking it back down on the battlefield. Once Arcanine lands on the battlefield it sees Houndoom stand up but it's wobbling back and forth.

"That Play Rough is super effective it did a lot of damage to Houndoom" Leaf says with Ash nodding Gary then speaks.

"So, are you going to keep Houndoom in or are you going to switch?" Gary asks as Damian looks at him then back at Houndoom

"Use rest then Return" Damian calls as Houndoom closes its eyes going back to sleep as it goes back to its Pokeball

"Heh so you do care for the wellbeing of your Pokemon after all" Gary says in a mocking tone as Damian looks at him getting an annoyed look.

"Shut up I need to save Houndoom for later this one should be enough to defeat your Arcanine go Steelix!" Damian calls as a large steel snake like Pokemon appears giving a mighty roar and shaking the battlefield.

"So, his Onix evolved into a Steelix" Ash says as he and Leaf scan the Pokemon with their Pokedex's

"Steelix, the Iron Snake Pokémon. A Steel and Ground type. Heat from deep underground strengthens its hide, and the pressure gives its body a toughness harder than metal." The Pokedex says.

"This might be difficult let's keep going Arcanine!" Gary says as Arcanine barks Damian then makes a command.

"Steelix Rock Polish then Double Edge!" Damian calls Steelix gives a mighty roar as it sharply increases its speed it then glows in a white aura as it shoots forward towards Arcanine

"Fire Blast Arcanine!" "Push thru it Steelix!" Both trainers call Arcanine fires the big blast of fire colliding with the steel snake Steelix roars in pain but can push thru the Fire Blast shocking Gary, Steelix hits Arcanine knocking it back towards Gary and causing damage to the fire dog.

"Are you okay Arcanine?" Gary asks with Arcanine nodding but it does groan in pain, Gary then looks at Steelix and sees that it has taken no recoil damage and speaks.

"I'm guessing your Steelix has the Rock Head ability meaning it takes no recoil damage" Gary says with Damian nodding.

"Yes, and that's not all my Steelix is good at tanking fire type moves you'll need a hotter flame in order to take it down" Damian responds as Steelix roars.

"Thanks, I'll take that into consideration" Gary says smirking as Arcanine barks Damian makes his next command.

"Use Stone Edge Steelix!" Damian calls Steelix roars as it summons the sharp stones heading towards Arcanine

"Use Flame Wheel to dodge Arcanine!" Gary calls Arcanine barks becoming a wheel of fire and begins to easily maneuver thru the Stone Edge getting closer to Steelix

"Now Steelix use Double Edge!" "Jump Arcanine!" Both trainers call Steelix charges forward and it's about to hit Arcanine but the fire dog is able to dodge as its now above Steelix heating up its mouth.

"Now Fire Blast!" Gary calls as before Damian can make a command Arcanine fires the big blast of fire on Steelix's head making the big steel snake roar out in pain and it now has the burned status making Damian angry.

"Steelix Iron Tail!" Damian calls Steelix roars it covers its tail in steel energy hitting Arcanine knocking the fire dog back on the battlefield, but the dog is able to stand up looking at Steelix, Steelix looks at Arcanine as well but is then consumed in flames Gary then makes his move.

"Arcanine Flamethrower!" Gary calls Arcanine quickly fires the stream of fire towards Steelix

"Steelix dodge with Dig!" Damian calls Steelix quickly goes underground dodging the Flamethrower.

"Now use Extremespeed to run towards the hole and use Flamethrower!" Gary calls shocking Damian as Arcanine quickly runs to the hole Steelix dug and fires a big Flamethrower in it everyone then hears Steelix roar in pain as it appears back on the surface consumed in flames.

"Now end it with Fire Blast!" "Dodge Steelix!" Both trainers call Arcanine quickly fires the big blast of fire Steelix was unable to dodge in time as the move hits it causing an explosion everyone then see Steelix fall on the battlefield.

"Steelix get up!" Damian calls but the steel snake doesn't move as its laying down unconscious the ref then makes the call.

"Steelix is unable to battle Arcanine is the winner!" The ref calls Arcanine howls in victory with Ash, Leaf, Pikachu and Charmeleon cheering as Damian's angry and returns Steelix he looks at Steelix's Pokeball and has a disappointed look on his face.

"Useless" Damian says in anger as Gary speaks.

"I wouldn't call your Steelix useless it fought hard you should praise it for a well fought battle" Gary says as Damian looks at him.

"Quiet! Steelix is my Pokemon and I can say and treat it anyway I want!" Damian yells back as Gary shakes his head.

"If that's how you feel then you're never going to beat me" Gary responds as Damian grabs his next Pokeball

"Shut Up! I'll defeat you! Go Poilwrath!" Damian yells as he brings out his Poilwrath it punches its fist together ready for battle.

"That Poliwrath looks as strong as mine" Leaf says with Ash nodding Damian then speaks.

"My Poliwrath is my second strongest Pokemon there's no way you can defeat it!" Damian says with Poliwrath agreeing as Gary grabs Arcanine's Pokeball.

"Arcanine return" Gary says returning the fire dog.

"So, you're returning your Arcanine" Damian says.

"Yep, this one should be enough to take down your Poliwrath Go Alakazam!" Gary says sending out the mon with a long mustache and holding two spoons in its hands as Damian grits his teeth.

"Gary's Alakazam is next it should make quick work of Poliwrath" Leaf says with Ash thinking the same the ref calls for the battle to continue as Gary then makes the first move.

"Use Psychic!" Gary calls as the mon fires the psychic waves at Poliwrath

"How predictable use Protect!" Damian calls as Poliwrath quickly summons a protective barrier blocking the Psychic Alakazam then quickly appears in front of Poilwrath surprising the tadpole as Gary makes a command.

"Charge Beam!" Gary calls Alakazam fires an electric beam in Poliwrath's face causing super effective damage blowing it back towards Damian.

"Get up Poliwrath you're not done yet!" Damian calls as Poliwrath struggles to get up Gary makes his move.

"Now Psychic!" Gary calls Alakazam quickly fires psychic waves towards Poliwrath Damian then grabs Poliwrath's Pokeball

"Return Poliwrath go Houndoom!" Damian says returning the tadpole Pokemon as the hell hound comes out still sleeping it takes the Psychic, but the move does nothing to it.

"I hate to admit it, but it was smart of Damian to bring in Houndoom since dark type Pokemon aren't effected by psychic attacks" Leaf says begrudgingly as Ash nods, they then see Gary make his next move.

"Alakazam use Focus Blast!" Gary calls the mon quickly fires the move at the sleeping hound as the move is getting closer Damian smirks.

"Houndoom dodge then use Foul Play!" Damian calls the hell hound quickly wakes up surprising Gary as the dog dodges the ball of fighting energy it quickly shoots forward covering its body in dark energy and hits Alakazam in the stomach causing super effective damage it begins to fly back but Houndoom isn't done yet as it runs after Alakazam.

"It probably has the early bird ability" Ash says with Leaf nodding as they see Houndoom get closer to Alakazam.

"End it with Crunch!" "Use Protect!" Both trainers call Houndoom goes to bite Alakazam, but the psychic mon quickly summons a protective barrier blocking the Crunch, Alakazam then ready's its fist.

"Drain Punch!" Gary calls shocking Damian as he sees Alakazam punch Houndoom across the face making the hell hound skid back, Houndoom's energy is sucked and goes to Alakazam, but Damian isn't worried.

"Use Payback!" Damian calls "It knows Payback?!" Gary says in shock as Houndoom's body glows in dark energy and quickly shoots it out hitting Alakazam causing super effective damage Damian then makes his next move.

"End it with Dark Pulse!" Damian calls Houndoom quickly fires the dark energy Gary was too late to make a command in time as he sees the Dark Pulse hit Alakazam the psychic Pokemon yell's out in pain as it falls on the ground unconscious.

"Alakazam is unable to battle Houndoom is the winner!" The ref calls as Damian smiles

"Hah take that!" Damian says smirking but Gary ignores him as he returns Alakazam.

"Thanks, Alakazam you gave it your all" Gary says returning the mon as he takes out his next Pokemon

"Come back out Scizor!" Gary calls sending the steel bug back in its ready to battle and get revenge for its teammate it stares at Houndoom with Houndoom growling at it.

"If you think your little bug can defeat my Houndoom then your sadly mistaking, Houndoom will easily defeat it" Damian says as Houndoom barks as Gary smirks.

"Go ahead and try if you can" Gary responds with a hint of cockiness in his voice making Damian angry as he makes the first move.

"Houndoom burn that bug with Flamethrower!" Damian calls as Houndoom fires the stream of fire towards Scizor

"Dodge with Double Team then use Swords Dance!" Gary calls Scizor quickly makes multiple copies of it self-dodging the flamethrower, the steel bug then sharply raises its attack.

"Houndoom use Flame Charge!" Damian calls as the hell hound covers its body in fire it sprints towards Scizor also raising its speed.

"Counter with Brick Break!" Gary calls Scizor flies forward with both pinchers glowing white the bug and dog collide they begin to try and push each other back but all it does is create an explosion making both mons skid back.

"Flamethrower!" Damian calls the hell hound quickly fires the stream of fire at Scizor

"Dodge Scizor then use Swords Dance again!" Gary calls Scizor easily dodges the Flamethrower as it increases its attack power more.

"Use Nasty Plot and Howl Houndoom!" Damian calls Houndoom roars increasing its special attack/attack power more.

"Scizor fly forward and use Double Team!" Gary calls Scizor creates multiple copies of itself, as they fly towards the hell hound.

"Destroy all of them with Flamethrower!" Damian calls Houndoom launches the fire from its mouth easily getting rid of all the copies, but it doesn't see the real one.

"Where'd it go?" Damian questions as he and Houndoom look around the battlefield but don't see Scizor as Gary makes a command.

"Now Brick Break!" Gary calls Damian looks up and sees Scizor quickly fly down towards Houndoom before he can make a command Scizor hits Houndoom's head knocking it on the ground.

"Good Scizor finish it with another Brick Break!" Gary calls as Scizor goes to hit Houndoom again Damian smiles.

"Fire Blast Houndoom!" Damian calls "Quick get out of their Scizor!" Gary calls but was too late Houndoom manages to dodge Scizor's Brick Break and quickly fires the big blast of fire it consumes Scizor making the steel bug cry out in pain.

"Scizor!" Gary calls in worry as the fire goes away Scizor gets on one knee and is panting heavily it looks like it could fall at any moment.

"I was hoping that Fire Blast would've knocked it out, but I guess you had it build up a resistance to fire moves but that doesn't matter do another Fire Blast Houndoom!" Damian calls Houndoom fires another fire blast hoping to end the battle as Gary smirks.

"Use Protect Scizor!" Gary calls Scizor quickly summons a protective barrier blocking the move surprising Damian as Gary speaks.

"You're right I did train up my Scizor to build up a resistance to fire moves and even though that Fire Blast did do a lot of damage to it it'll take more than that to knock out my Scizor" Gary says with his Scizor nodding as the bug successfully blocked the fire blast and stands back up ready to continue making Damian angry.

"Houndoom use Fire Fang!" Damian calls Houndoom shoots forward with its mouth covered in fire.

"Scizor dodge then use Brick Break!" Gary calls Scizor easily dodges the hell hound and hits it in the face with its pincer making Houndoom slide back. But the dog isn't done yet as its mouth is being filled with fire.

"Fire Blast Houndoom!" Damian calls Houndoom roars as it launches the big blast of fire towards Scizor but neither Gary nor Scizor are worried.

"Scizor fly forward using Double Team!" Gary calls Scizor makes multiple copies of itself they all fly forward the clones get hit by the Fire Blast but the real Scizor dodges and heads straight for Houndoom.

"Flamethrower Houndoom!" "Scizor end it with Close Combat!" Both trainers call Houndoom fires the stream of fire, but Scizor manages to dodge and begins to punch Houndoom repeatedly causing super effective damage. Scizor punches Houndoom one more tine sending the hell hound flying thru the air as it crashes down below Damian's feet unconscious.

"Houndoom is unable to battle Scizor is the winner!" The ref calls Gary and Scizor smile while Ash, Leaf, Pikachu and Charmeleon cheer as Damian is in shock, he looks at Houndoom and has anger in his eyes.

"How could you lose to a steel type?! you worthless dog!" Damian says as he returns Houndoom he looks over at Proton who has a disappointed look on his face Gary then speaks.

"You know even though your Houndoom lost it still put up a good fight you should praise it for working hard" Gary says as Damain gets angry.

"Shut Up!" I've already told you that I treat my Pokemon differently the only way they get praise is if they provide results if they can't do that then they're worthless!" Damian responds as Gary signs.

"You see with that type of mind set you'll never defeat me and if I'm being honest while you've improved since our last encounter you don't battle like a trainer who has 8 badges you still battle like a beginning trainer" Gary says in a mocking tone making Damian angrier as he yells.

"I TOLD YOU TO SHUT UP! I'll PROVE I'M THE SUPERIOR TRAINER BY WINNING THIS BATTLE!" Damian yells.

"Gary's really getting under Damian's skin" Ash says.

"It's deserved if you ask me" Leaf says as Ash nods as Gary speaks.

"That's another thing you need to work on is your anger you get angry too easily, so it clouds your judgement when you make decisions in battle, and it reflects on your Pokemon as well" Gary responds as Damian speaks.

"Fine then you want to see calm I'll show you calm, and I'll be the victor go Electrode!" Damian says as the spinning ball comes back out ready to battle.

"Can you still battle Scizor?" Gary asks as the steel bug nods the ref begins the battle as Damian makes the first move.

"Use Rain Dance then Thunder!" Damian commands Electrode quickly summons the rain from the sky and immediately brings down the large electric bolt.

"Use Double Team to dodge Scizor then use Quick Attack!" Gary calls Scizor creates multiple copies of itself dodging the Thunder it then shoots forward hitting electrode making the mon skid back.

"Use Spark!" Damian calls Electrode covers its body with electricity as it shoots forward.

"Counter with Metal Claw!" Gary calls Scizor charges covering its claw in steel energy as it collides with Electrode creating an explosion making both mons skid back.

"Scizor Flash Cannon!" "Electrode Thunder!" Both trainers call Scizor fires out a steel beam as Electrode fires the large electric bolt both moves collide, they fight for dominance for a little bit until Electrodes Thunder begins to easily destroy the Flash Cannon as it heads for Scizor.

"Dodge Scizor then use Bullet Punch!" Gary calls Scizor manages to dodge the Thunder it then quickly flies towards Electrode and punches it 5 times causing damage and making the ball go back towards Damian groaning in pain.

"What are you doing Electrode?! Use Spark!" Damian commands as Electrode covers its body in electricity again and shoots towards Scizor successfully hitting the bug but Scizor isn't done yet.

"Use Close Combat!" Gary calls shocking Damian as Scizor begins to punch Electrode multiple times causing major damage to the ball mon as it falls on the ground in pain making Damian angry.

"You're not done yet Electrode get up!" Damian calls as the ball tries to get up Gary speaks.

"You should return Electrode it's taken too much damage already and looks like it can barely battle anymore" Gary says in a serious tone as Damian looks at him.

"Quiet! My Electrode can still battle get up Electrode!" Damian yells as the ball gets up but it's panting heavily as Damian smiles.

"See that my Electrode can still battle" Damian says as Gary signs.

"Scizor end it with Iron Head" Gary calls as Scizor covers its head in steel energy and flies towards the tired Electrode as its about to hit Electrode Damian makes a command.

"Now Explosion!" Damian calls before Gary can tell Scizor to dodge the ball Pokemon glows white creating a big explosion that destroys some of the battlefield creating a dust cloud Damian begins to laugh the Rain Dance also goes away.

"Hahahahaha see that it's my win!" Damian says as he looks at the unconscious Electrode Gary smirks.

"Are you sure?" Gary asks confusing Damian as the smoke is clearing Scizor is still standing and has a protective barrier up this shocks Damian.

"But how?! There shouldn't have been anytime for Scizor to summon a Protect!" Damian questions as Gary speaks.

"Your right normally there wouldn't be a lot of time to prepare for when a Pokemon uses Explosion, but you see that moment you decided to keep Electrode in both me and Scizor knew you would try something like that so as Scizor was charging at Electrode with Iron Head it was also beginning to prepare a Protect" Gary says surprising Ash and Leaf while Damian gets angry.

"No it's not fair how could you have predicted that I would do that?!" Damian asks.

"It's simple like I told you before your anger clouds your judgement and makes your moves a lot easier to predict. I must say for someone who has all eight Kanto badges you've been a real let down." Gary says mockingly and shrugs his shoulders in disappointment making Damian angrier.

"Shut Up I'm stronger than you Go Poilwrath use Hydro Pump!" Damian responds as he quickly sends out the tadpole it quickly fires the large stream of water consuming Scizor the steel bug cries out in pain as it falls on the ground knocked out.

"See that I am stronger than you Hahahahahahaha" Damian says laughing as Ash and Leaf get mad.

"Hey, you attacked before the ref could begin the battle that's not fair!" "Yeah, you're cheating!" Ash and Leaf yell with Pikachu and Charmeleon agreeing as Damian looks over to them.

"Shut Up! in case you've forgotten you're on Team Rocket territory now and anything goes!" Damian yells back before Ash and Leaf can respond back Gary puts his hand up to them telling them to stop the two kids nod Gary then looks over at Damian and speaks.

"You're right we're in an area filled with Team Rocket members of course the only way for you to win is by cheating it does make sense" Gary says making Damian angry.

"Why you" Before Damian can say anything more Gary continues to speak.

"So, seeing as you're a member of Team Rocket why don't we stop this charade of an official Pokemon battle it's obvious you can't beat me without cheating so how about you battle me as just a Team Rocket grunt stop trying to convince yourself as a Pokemon trainer because obviously you're not" Gary says as Damian smiles.

"Sure, that's fine with me I was getting tired of going by the rules anyway. Hey ref you can go we don't need you anymore" Damian responds the ref nods as he takes an elevator leaving the battle arena and heads towards the exit of the building Damian then takes out another Pokeball.

"Now I'll defeat you with not only my second strongest Pokemon but also my strongest it was a gift from the boss after I got my final gym badge Go Rhyperior!" Damian says throwing the ball in the air what comes out is a large Pokemon it looks like a Rhydon but its bigger, its brownish grey with two horns one on its forehead and another that's its nose and it has a club tail. Once the mon comes out it gives a mighty roar that shakes the battlefield sending out a shockwave Gary isn't fazed as he looks at the mon and smiles.

"Who's that Pokemon?" Ash and Leaf wonder as they take out their Pokedex's to scan the mon

"Rhyperior, the Drill Pokémon and the evolved form of Rhydon. Rhyperior can concentrate strength in its body and expand, causing the stone in its hand to launch." The Pokedex says.

"It would be cool if it didn't belong to Damian" Ash says with Leaf agreeing Damian then speaks.

"These two are my strongest Pokemon give up now because there's no way you can defeat me now Hahahahahaha" Damian says as Gary smirks catching Damian's attention.

"Hey why are you smirking?! you should be filled with fear and despair at the situation you're in" Damian questions as Gary speaks.

"Oh, it's nothing really it's just while these two Pokemon look strong my victory is still confirmed and I'll beat both of those Pokemon with this one alone" Gary says as he takes out a Pokeball as Damian speaks.

"With one Pokemon? Hah you're out of your mind if you think one Pokemon can defeat these two let me guess is it your Blastoise?" Damian questions as Gary continues to smile.

"Heh, I don't need Blastoise in order to take out those two this one will be enough its similar to my Blastoise in strength and is my 2nd strongest Pokemon" Gary responds as Ash speaks.

"Gary's second strongest Pokemon huh I wonder who it could be do you know Leaf?" Ash asks looking at the girl as Leaf looks at him.

"If it's the mon I'm thinking about then Gary has a 100% chance at winning" Leaf responds as Ash nods, he wonders who Gary's second strongest Pokemon is and looks back at the battlefield.

"So, are you going to send it out or not?" Damian asks as Gary speaks.

"Yep, here it is my 2nd strongest Pokemon Go Tyranitar!" Gary says shocking Damian and Proton at that name. Once Gary throws the ball in the air what comes out is a large bipedal dinosaur like Pokemon it has armor covering its body and spikes on its back once it lands on the battlefield it shakes it more than Rhyperior did it lets out a loud roar that sends a massive shockwave through the battlefield and the people on the bottom levels of the building can hear it.

"What was that? That didn't sound like Damian's Rhyperior" Gozo questions.

"Looks like Gary got a powerful Pokemon" Riley says to himself as he gives Lucario a command.

"Now Lucario Aura Sphere!" Riley calls the blue dog fires the ball of fighting energy hitting the 4 other Matori matrix members Onix, Machamp, Nidoking and Rhydon knocking them out making Gozu mad.

"What are you fools doing?!" Gozu yells in anger as his grunts apologize Gozu then looks at Riley and smiles.

"Now that the small fry are out of the way our real battle can begin" Gozu says as his Aggron roars.

"Let's Go Lucario!" Riley says as the blue dog roars as it and Aggron charge at each other getting their hands locked in a grapple.

Meanwhile in Giovanni's office as Giovanni is watching the screen of Gary and Damian's battle Matori walks in the room.

"How's the battle progressing sir?" Matori asks.

"It seems Damian let his anger get the better of him" Giovanni says as Matori nods.

"So, what should we do now?" Matori asks.

"Let's continue to watch I'm interested in how this battle will end" Giovanni responds Matori nods the two then continue watching the battle on screen as we now cut back to the battlefield Tyranitar stopped roaring it gets into a battle stance and glares at Rhyperior and Poilwrath.

"A Tyranitar huh?" Ash says he takes out his Pokedex and scans it.

"Tyranitar, the Armor Pokémon. Tyranitar has a heavily armored body that can withstand powerful attacks and is able to crush a mountain with one hand." The Pokedex says.

"Wait it says here in the Pokedex that you can find Tyranitar in the Johto region and some spots in Galar and Paldea how did Gary get one? Also, in the Pokedex its shows that Tyranitar's are usually green Gary's is a bit lighter and has a purple patch on its stomach is that a shiny?" Ash questions Leaf confirms to Ash that Tyranitar is shiny and begins to explain how Gary caught it.

"Remember when Gary mentioned he defeated the Fuchsia City gym leader he told me after the gym battle, he went into a place called the Safari Zone that has Pokemon from not only the Kanto region but also from other regions. Gary found Tyranitar when it was a Larvitar and raised it into a Tyranitar he also caught some other strong Pokemon as well. His Tyranitar is a powerful Pokemon during his gym battle with Sabrina this Pokemon easily took out 2 of Sabrina's without breaking a sweat I would also say it's probably on par or even stronger than your Gyarados" Leaf responds as Ash nods and thinks.

"Stronger than my Gyarados huh? interesting and the Safari Zone if I go there, I wonder what kind of Pokemon I'll catch?" Ash wonders as he turns back to the battlefield interested in Tyranitar's strength Pikachu and Charmeleon are also interested Damian then speaks.

"A Tyranitar? Hehehahahahahaha, I thought it would be something more terrifying but you're sending in a Tyranitar against my Poilwrath and Rhyperior it has a type disadvantage against both there's no way you can with Hahahaha" Damian says as he laughs Gary then speaks.

"Okay then if you believe my Tyranitar can't beat both of your Pokemon then try and defeat it" Gary says.

"Don't worry I will Poilwrath Hydro Pump!" Damian calls the tadpole Pokemon fires a large stream of water towards Tyranitar but neither the mon nor Gary are worried.

"Knock it back with your tail" Gary calls as Tyranitar easily smacks the Hydro Pump away surprising Damian.

"That was just a fluke Rhyperior use Hammer Arm!" Damian calls Rhyperior charges forward with its arm glowing it's about to hit Tyranitar but Gary makes a command.

"Dodge Tyranitar then use Dragon Tail!" Gary calls Tyranitar easily dodges Rhyperior's attack its tail glows in green dragon energy as it hits Rhyperior in the stomach sending it flying thru the air and come crashing down below Damian's feet.

"WHAT?!" Damian yells in shock

"No this can't be Poilwrath use Close Combat!" Damian calls as Poilwrath shoots forward.

"Dodge Tyranitar and when you see an opening use Thunder Punch!" Gary calls Poliwrath tries its best to hit Tyranitar but the armor Pokemon is easily able to dodge the punches surprising Ash, Damian, Proton, Charmeleon and Pikachu at how maneuverable it is. Tyranitar then sees an opening it quickly charges up its fist with electricity and punches Poilwrath in the stomach sending it flying back to Damian, Poilwrath lands next to its trainer and is unconscious.

"GET UP POLIWRATH GET UP!" Damian yells but it's no use the tad pole is knocked out.

"Your Poliwrath is unconscious it can't battle anymore you should return it" Gary says as Damian looks at him with anger in his eyes.

"SHUT UP DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!" Damian yells back not surprising Gary at his response Damian then makes a command.

"Rhyperior use Drill Run!" Damian calls Rhyperior roars it spins and heads towards Tyranitar.

"Grab it Tyranitar" Gary calls Tyranitar puts its hands out as its able to catch the spinning rhino stopping it shocking Damian and Rhyperior.

"Use Horn Drill Rhyperior!" "Slam it on the ground and use Ice Punch!" Both trainers call before Rhyperior can use Horn Drill Tyranitar slams the mon on the ground and then punches Rhyperior making it groan in pain.

"GRR Rhyperior Earthquake!" "Jump Tyranitar!" Both trainers call Rhyperior slams its arm on the ground shaking it, but Tyranitar was able to jump in the air in time.

"Use Ice Punch!" Gary calls as Tyranitar covers its fist in ice and begins falling towards Rhyperior.

"Dodge Rhyperior and when Tyranitar lands use Hammer Arm!" Damian calls Rhyperior dodges Tyranitar's fist at last second as the armor Pokemon punches the ground Rhyperior then stands up and shoots forward going to hit Tyranitar but Gary smiles.

"Tyranitar Hydro Pump!" Gary calls shocking everyone.

"Rhyperior dodge!" Damian calls "Too late fire Tyranitar!" Gary calls Tyranitar roars as it fires the large stream of water at Rhyperior consuming it and sending it flying thru the air.

"RHYPERIOR!" Damian yells as the mon comes crashing below Damian's feet unconscious.

"GET UP RHYPERIOR YOU'RE NOT DONE YET I COMMAND YOU TO STAND UP RIGHT NOW!" Damian yells Rhyperior tries to get up but ultimately stays down.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Damian yells in shock, Proton looks at Damian in disappointment as Ash, Leaf, Pikachu and Charmeleon cheer.

"Way to go Gary!" Leaf says happily as she quickly runs over giving Gary a hug knocking the boy on the ground as Ash looks at Tyranitar and thinks.

"If me and Gary got to continue our battle could I've truly beat him?" Ash questions Pikachu and Charmeleon look at their trainer wondering the same Ash looks at his two-mons shaking his head and smiles.

"Come on let's go congratulate Gary" Ash says smiling Pikachu and Charmeleon nod as they run over to Leaf and Gary.


Meanwhile with Giovanni and Matori they've witnessed Damian lose both adults are disappointed while the Silph Co. President smiles and speaks.

"Hah you see that Champion Blue's son won and very soon Riley will defeat Gozu you lose!" The president says as Giovanni and Matori look at him Matori is about to speak but Giovanni stops her as he goes over to the old man.

"You really think we've lost Hmph I'll show you true fear" Giovanni says as he grabs the man and begins to pull him

"Come Matori I think it's finally time for me to say hello to the kids of Red, Delia, Blue and Rose" Giovanni says with Matori nodding as they along with the company president walk inside an elevator that'll take them to the roof of Silph Co.

We now head back to the roof with Leaf still hugging Gary.

"You were amazing Gary!" Leaf says.

"Of course, I'm always amazing now will you please get off me Leaf" Gary says with Leaf nodding as she gets off the boy letting Gary stand up to catch his breath. Once he does, he looks at Leaf and smiles with Leaf doing the same they then see Ash with Pikachu and Charmeleon walk over.

"I hate to admit it but that was a great battle Gary you're strong" Ash says with Pikachu and Charmeleon nodding as Gary smirks

"Of course, it was great everything I do is amazing if you battled instead of me, you more than likely would've lost" Gary says in a mocking tone making Ash annoyed.

"Please if it was me battling, I would've defeated Damian without losing a single Pokemon unlike you" Ash responds annoying Gary.

"Yeah, right you would've lost a Pokemon as soon as the battled started" Gary says.

"Oh yeah how about we battle right now I'll prove you wrong" Ash responds as Gary smirks.

"Nah you're way too weak for me" Gary says mocking Ash making the boy angry as Ash and Gary then begin to argue on who's better.

"Sign here they go again" Leaf says with Pikachu, Charmeleon and Tyranitar agreeing they then here Damian yell.

"NO THIS CAN'T BE POSSIBLE I HAVE THE STRONGER POKEMON, I HAVE ALL 8 BADGES SO WHY? WHY DID I LOSE?!" Damian yells as the group look at him.

"He's really hurting from his lost" Ash says.

"So, it's what he gets" Leaf responds as Ash and Gary nod, they then see Proton walk over to Damian and is now standing over him as Damian looks up at the man.

"I'm sorry Proton sir I failed" Damian says as Proton puts on what seems to be a comforting smile.

"It's okay Damian you tried you're best you should continue to train and next time you'll defeat him" Proton says with Damian nodding as the boy stands up with Proton putting his hand on his shoulder surprising Ash, Gary and Leaf.

"Whoa I wasn't expecting him to be so nice" Leaf says as Gary nods while Ash stares in silence.

"I'm not getting a good feeling from him" Ash says with Charmeleon agreeing as it begins to growl, they continue to look over as Proton continues to speak.

"You know that's something I would say if I actually cared for you!" Proton says as he punches Damian across the face shocking everyone as Damian falls on the ground having a shocked expression Proton then walks over grabbing Damian by the collar and gets in his face.

"5 years, I've wasted 5 YEARS! of my life training you and what do I get in return? An apprentice who constantly fails over and over again what a disappointment" Proton says in anger as Damian speaks.

"I can make it up to you sir please let me I promise I-"Before Damian can finish Proton punches Damian again and speaks.

"Sorry I've lost interest in you that evil feeling I got from you 5 years ago must have been a fluke because when I look at you, I don't get that feeling from you anymore. Your just another pathetic orphan child the boss and the other executives were right I shouldn't have wasted time in training you" Proton says as Damian gets angry.

"I'm not weak I'm strong I'll prove it to you!" Damian yells as he goes to punch Proton the man dodges as he punches Damian in the stomach making the boy cough in pain Proton then grabs Damian's hair pulling the boy close to his face. Once he does, he sees tears come from Damian's eyes and gets angry as he throws Damian on the ground as Damian speaks.

"So, was everything a lie? Was everything you told me all A LIE?! YOU SAID THAT WE'LL CONQUER THE WORLD TOGETHER AND MAKE ME THE STRONGEST TRAINER IN THE WORLD WHO CAN DEFEAT RED KETCHUM. NOW THAT I'VE LOST THIS BATTLE, YOU'RE JUST GOING TO GIVE UP ON ME YOU PIECE OF CRAP!" Damian yells as tears begin to flow from his eyes as Proton walks over and grabs Damian by the shirt, he looks at the boy and speaks.

"No all those things I told you were true I thought if I raised you from a young age, you could be the strongest member of Team Rocket and possibly become stronger than the boss, but I guess that dream is dead now" Proton responds as Damian speaks.

"So why are you getting rid of me now?" Damian questions as Proton looks at him.

"Remember back when you owned Charmander I told you that if it kept losing and disappointing you, you to get rid of it? Will now I'm doing the same thing to you Team Rocket has no use for weakling's only the strong can survive in this organization and from what I just saw you're both weak and worthless" Proton responds as Damian gets a shocked look on his face Proton lets him go Damian looks over at Charmeleon and thinks.

"Is this how I was when Charmeleon used to be mine? Is this how it felt when I left it on that rock for a week with no intention of coming back for it? Is this how my Pokemon feel when I treat them poorly? And is this how all those people felt when I stole their Pokemon from them and did all those horrible things?" Damian thinks to himself he looks at the 3 kids and their Pokemon Damian and says something that surprises everyone.

"I'm…. Sorry" Damian says with tears in his eyes shocking the 3 kids and their Pokemon making Proton angry as he sends out a Golbat.

"Just as I thought you are useless begone!" Proton says as he tells his Golbat to fire a Sludge Bomb Damian closes his eyes and waits for the attack to hit but then hears a voice.

"Flamethrower!" Ash's voice echoes as Charmeleon fires the flame colliding with the ball of sludge creating an explosion Damian and Proton look over and see Ash, Gary, Leaf along with their Pokemon staring at Proton, Proton gets angry as Ash speaks.

"What do you think you're doing?!" Ash asks.

"What does it look like I'm doing I'm getting rid of a worthless subordinate" Proton responds.

"So just because he lost one battle means he's of no use to you?!" Gary asks.

"Of course, if he can't provide results then he's dead weight and why do you care? You all shouldn't even be defending him" Proton responds as Leaf speaks.

"You're right we shouldn't be defending him; we still don't forgive him but we're not going to stand by and watch you kill someone especially a kid that you decided to raise so he can become a TR member and do horrible things!" Leaf responds as Proton speaks.

"So, what you're going to stop me?" Proton asks as Ash speaks.

"Yeah, we will and make sure the both of you go to prison!" Ash says with Gary, Leaf and their Pokemon nodding as Proton smiles evilly.

"Fine by me I've been wanting to get rid of you brats personally the moment I laid eyes on you, and I'll happily steal all of your Pokemon" Proton responds he then blows a whistle as multiple TR grunts appear surrounding the group.

"So, it was a trap after all" Gary says as Proton speaks.

"Of course, whether you won or lost the plan was to always beat you down so we can steal your Pokemon" Proton says as he and the grunts get their Pokeball's ready.

"Looks like we're gonna have to fight our way thru guys" Leaf says as Ash and Gary nod.

"That's fine with me my Pokemon are ready" Ash says with Pikachu sparking its cheeks, Charmeleon along with Tyranitar get in a battle stance, Ash, Gary and Leaf get their Pokeball's ready as well before they battle they hear the elevator door open everyone looks over Proton, Damian and the grunts get a surprised look on their faces as the kids and their Pokemon are confused as everyone see three adults walk out of the elevator Proton speaks.

"Giovanni sir what are you doing here?" Proton asks.

"Oh, I'm just taking a stroll is all" Giovanni responds smiling he then looks at Damian his smile immediately goes away as he has a disappointed look on his face as Damian turns his head away trying to not look at the man in the eye the kids look at the man as Leaf speaks.

"Giovanni? That must be the boss" Leaf says the two boys nod as Gary speaks.

"I'm not sure who the woman is but the old man next to them that's tied up must be the Silph Co. President" Gary responds with Ash and Leaf nodding Giovanni then looks over at the kids he gets a smile on his face as he walks over to them as he's getting closer Pikachu, Charmeleon and Tyranitar growl as they stand protectively in front of the children once Giovanni gets close enough he stops he's not intimidated by the three Pokemon his interest is on the kids he smiles and speaks.

"Hello children of Red, Delia, Blue and Rose my names Giovanni and I'm the leader of Team Rocket it's a pleasure to finally meet you" Giovanni says smiling as the 3 kids look at him Ash feels something from him.

"This man is dangerous" Ash thinks to himself as he looks at the man.


We now cut back to Riley and Gozu.

"This evil presence Giovanni's made it to the kids I've to hurry" Riley says he looks at Lucario who nods the two of them begin to bolt towards the stairs, but Gozu's Aggron launches a Stone Edge blocking their exit.

"Let us thru Gozu!" Riley says in anger.

"Like I told you before I was ordered to keep you here and that's what I'm going to do come out men!" Gozu says as more Rocket grunts appear surrounding Riley and Lucario

"Where did these grunts come from?" Riley questions as Gozu speaks.

"While I was keeping you busy the boss was able to send in more grunts in this area now your doomed" Gozu says as the grunts send out their Pokemon Riley and Lucario grit their teeth as Gozu laughs.

"Hahahaha its over for you Riley get them men!" Gozu calls as the grunts Pokemon charge Riley grabs 5 Pokeball's and sends out a Arcanine, Machamp, Scizor, a steel bird Pokemon named Skarmory and a large Brown bear Pokemon called Ursaring.

"Let's Go!" Riley says as all of his Pokemon charge forward battling the TR grunts Pokemon as Lucario continues to battle Aggron.

"Ash, Gary and Leaf stay safe I'll be their soon" Riley thinks to himself as he gives his Pokemon commands.

We now go back to the top of the roof of Silph Co. with Giovanni greeting the 3 kids all three are intimidated by the man Leaf begins to shake in fear as Gary gently grabs her hand Leaf looks at the boy as Gary gives her a reassuring smile Leaf smiles back as they look at the man who's currently looking at Ash. Ash and Giovanni look at each other in silence for a few moments until Ash speaks.

"So, you're the boss of Team Rocket huh and how do you know our parents?" Ash asks as Giovanni speaks.

"Oh, me and your parents go way back we've known each other since we were children, they're great friends of mine" Giovanni responds lying at the last part.

"I doubt our parents are friends with a crime boss that steal Pokemon and hurt people for a living" Ash says as Giovanni smiles and speaks.

"Oh, my how smart of you you've caught my lie well done well done indeed" Giovanni responds as he begins to clap his hands annoying Ash.

"So, what do you want with us?" Gary asks as Giovanni stops clapping and speaks.

"To answer your question, I'm not interested in you two the one I'm interested in is Ash Ketchum" Giovanni says as Ash speaks.

"Why me?" Ash asks as Giovanni speaks.

"Well, it's because you've constantly been giving trouble to my grunts as they're trying to complete their missions" Giovanni responds.

"I doubt me interrupting your grunts missions is enough for you to be interested in me" Ash responds as Giovanni nods.

"Why yes you're right that wouldn't be enough for me to be interested in you there's something else instead can you guess what that is?" Giovanni asks looking at the boy.

"No what is it?" Ash asks as Giovanni speaks.

"Your father" Giovanni says surprising Ash, Gary and Leaf Ash then speaks.

"You know that Archer guy mentioned something about my dad tell me what's the connection my dad has with you!" Ash asks as Giovanni smiles and speaks.

"Okay I'll tell you but in order to get that information you'll have to defeat me in battle I'll use this new Pokemon I recently attained if you beat it, I'll gladly tell you and you can use as many Pokemon as you want." Giovanni responds holding a Pokeball in his hand before Ash answers Gary speaks.

"Don't do it Ash this guy definitely has something up his sleeve" Gary says.

"Gary's right and remember what Mr. Riley said we shouldn't battle the rocket boss" Leaf says Ash looks at his two friends.

"You guys are right this is most likely a trap but if I get to learn what he knows about my dad and defeat him then we can easily get rid of the organization. Also, if I refuse, we're still surrounded by TR grunts, and I doubt they'll safely let us leave." Ash responds Gary and Leaf do agree with his logic as Leaf is about to respond Gary stops her, he looks at Ash and speaks.

"Okay Ash we'll believe in you I just hope you know what you're doing" Gary says with Ash nodding he then looks at Giovanni.

"So will you battle me or not?" Giovanni asks.

"Yeah, I'll battle you and when I beat you, I want to know what you know about my dad, release the Silph Co. President, remove the mind control you have over Ms. Sabrina and disband the TR organization" Ash says Proton, Matori and the TR grunts get angry at Ash for suggesting that the boss should disband the organization Giovanni smiles and speaks.

"Okay then but if I win, you'll tell me the location of your father do we have a deal?" Giovanni asks as he holds out his hand Ash thinks about it for a little bit, he doesn't know the location of his dad but that shouldn't matter since Ash feels he can beat Giovanni as he then makes his decision.

"Deal" Ash says as he walks over and shakes the man's hand Giovanni gets an evil smile on his face Ash notices but doesn't say anything they then walk over to the battlefield going to their sides once they do Ash speaks.

"You said that I can use as many Pokemon as I want to, right?" Ash asks.

"Yes, I did" Giovanni responds as Ash smiles.

"Okay you better not regret it Come out Everyone!" Ash says he throws 3 Pokeball's in the air that bring out Gyarados, Clefable and Primeape they join Pikachu and Charmeleon and let out a massive roar creating a shockwave, but Giovanni isn't intimidated.

"So, these are the Pokemon those three idiots told me about" Giovanni thinks to himself.

"I hope Ash does alright" Leaf says with Gary nodding.

"So, are you going to send out your Pokemon or are you too much of a Torchic to do it?" Ash asks in a mocking tone as Giovanni smirks.

"I must say you definitely have a smart mouth like your father but since you're so insistent here it is" Giovanni responds he throws the Pokeball in the air what comes out isn't what the group expected what appears is a big bipedal land shark Pokemon once it lands on the battlefield it shakes it and gives a mighty roar.

"GARRRRRRRR!" The mon roars once it stops roaring it glares at Ash's Pokemon with Ash's Pokemon glaring back at it.

"Who's that Pokemon?" Ash, Leaf and Gary say as they take out their Pokedex's and scan the mon.

"Garchomp, the Mach Pokémon a Dragon/Ground type. When it folds up its body and spreads its wings, it can fly like a jet plane at the speed of sound." The Pokedex says.

"Its color is a bit different as well is that a shiny?" Leaf questions as Giovanni nods

"So, this is the Pokemon you recently caught?" Ash asks as Giovanni speaks.

"Why yes you see I attained Garchomp a couple weeks ago I've only had it for a short time, but it's already become my strongest Pokemon" Giovanni responds as Garchomp nods.

"His strongest Pokemon? This could be bad" Gary says.

"So that's your strongest Pokemon huh I don't care how strong it is my Pokemon will defeat it!" Ash states as his Pokemon roar in agreement as Giovanni smiles.

"Okay then I like to see you try in fact I'll let Garchomp battle by itself for a little while without me giving it commands" Giovanni says as Garchomp roars.

That's fine with me let's go everyone!" Ash says as his Pokemon roar and get into a battle stance with Garchomp getting in a battle stance as well they stare at each other for a few moments until Ash makes the first move.

"Pikachu Quick Attack, Primeape Ice Punch and Charmeleon Dragon Claw!" Ash calls as the three mons instantly shoot forward Garchomp isn't fazed as it covers its claws in green Dragon energy it shoots forward and easily knocks away the 3-mons surprising Ash as Leaf speaks.

"It was able to easily knock away 3 of Ash's Pokemon with Dragon Claw?" Leaf says in shock Ash then makes his next move.

"Gyarados Ice Fang and Clefable use Calm Mind then Moonblast!" Ash calls Gyarados charges forward covering its teeth in ice as Clefable begins to calm its mind increasing its special attack/defense and charges the pink orb. Garchomp sees Gyarados approaching it dodges the blue serpent and kicks it away.

"Clef!" Clefable yells as it throws the Moonblast towards Garchomp instead of dodging Garchomp catches the pink orb surprising Ash, his Pokemon, Gary and Leaf the Land shark then throws it towards Primeape.

"Pikachu quick use Iron Tail to cut the Moonblast in half!" Ash calls Pikachu quickly runs over covering its tail in steel energy and successfully cuts the pink orb in half.

"Prime" Primeape says thank you with Pikachu nodding.

"In front of you!" Ash calls in worry as Garchomp appears in front of Pikachu and Primeape it has its dragon claw ready and goes to hit the two mons Ash makes a command.

"Pikachu use Iron Tail and Primeape use Ice Punch!" Ash calls Pikachu and Primeape counter Garchomp's Dragon Claw but the land shark easily blows them away, Charmeleon then appears behind Garchomp and has fire in its mouth.

"Use Flamethrower!" Ash calls Charmeleon quickly fires the move, but Garchomp jumps backwards dodging the Flamethrower getting behind the fire lizard it then uses Dragon Claw knocking Charmeleon on the battlefield as Garchomp goes for another dragon claw Ash makes a command.

"Gyarados Aqua Tail!" Ash calls Gyarados charges forward covering its tail in water and goes to hit Garchomp but misses as Garchomp jumps high into the air, but Ash knew that would happen as he calls for his next move.

"Now Clefable use Dazzling Gleam!" Ash calls as Clefable appears above Garchomp and falls towards it Garchomp has no time to dodge it covers its face with its arms as Clefable collides with it both mons then crash on the battlefield and skid back, but Ash isn't done yet.

"Now Gyarados grab it!" Ash calls Gyarados quickly appears behind Garchomp and grabs it with its tail holding onto it tightly, but Garchomp doesn't struggle to get out of the hold as it sees Charmeleon and Primeape run over.

"Now Charmeleon Dragon Claw, Primeape Ice Punch and Gyarados Ice Fang!" Ash calls Charmeleon and Primeape jump forward going to hit Garchomp as Gyarados covers its teeth in ice and goes to bite the Pokemon.

"Yeah, this can work Go Ash!" Leaf cheers but Gary stays quiet he looks over to Giovanni who has a smile on his face. As the three mons are about to hit Garchomp the land shark roars as it covers its teeth in electricity biting down hard on Gyarados making the sea serpent roar in pain as its grip loosens on the land shark surprising Ash and his Pokemon.

This doesn't stop Charmeleon and Primeape as they keep going forward, they're about to hit Garchomp but Garchomp easily knocks them away with its arm.

"Gar!" Garchomp roars as it stomps its foot on the ground summoning large stones that head towards Charmeleon and Primeape.

"Clefable use Protect!" Ash calls as the pixie mon jumps in front of Charmeleon and Primeape summoning a protective barrier blocking the Stone Edge, but the move was too powerful as it easily breaks the Protect.

"Clefable quick use psychic to get you along with Charmeleon and Primeape out of there!" Ash calls Clefable nods it grabs Charmeleon and Primeape with Psychic and begins to run away from the Stone Edge, but Garchomp appears in front of them making Clefable stop as the Stone Edge appears and hits all 3-mons sending them high into the air.

Garchomp quickly flies into the air and hits the 3 mons with its tail sending them crashing back to the ground, as Garchomp goes after them Ash makes a command.

"Pikachu use Quick Attack!" Ash calls Pikachu quickly jumps high into the air hitting Garchomp in the stomach, but it does no damage to the land shark as it knocks Pikachu away with Metal Claw knocking the yellow mouse towards Charmeleon, Clefable and Primeape. Clefable was able to safely catch Pikachu the 4 mons then see Garchomp head towards them.

"Gyarados Waterfall!" Ash calls Gyarados roars as it quickly covers its body with water and charges forward at Garchomp. Gyarados hits Garchomp they both go back on the battlefield as Gyarados is pushing Garchomp the land shark repositions itself as it grabs Gyarados's face forcing it to stop pushing it. Garchomp then lifts Gyarados jumps in the air and slams it back on the battlefield this makes Gyarados slide towards Pikachu, Charmeleon, Clefable and Primeape. The 4 mons were unable to dodge in time as Gyarados crashes into them making them soar thru the air and come crashing back down on the battlefield.

"Are you guys, okay?!" Ash asks as his Pokemon get up they nod and are ready to continue battling Giovanni then speaks.

"So, what do you think of my Garchomp its pretty strong right?" Giovanni asks.

"I hate to admit it, its strong but I know my Pokemon will win!" Ash states as his Pokemon roar as Giovanni smiles.

"Do you think Ash can win Gary?" Leaf asks in a worried tone as Gary looks at her.

"Honestly I'm not sure" Gary responds as they both turn their heads back to the battlefield Giovanni speaks.

"Seeing as Garchomp is warmed up now I'll start giving it orders" Giovanni says as Garchomp roars.

"That's fine with me!" Ash responds with his Pokemon nodding as Giovanni smiles and makes his command.

"Garchomp fly forward" Giovanni commands Garchomp roars as it flies towards Ash's Pokemon.

"Pikachu, Charmeleon and Primeape you charge forward as well Gyarados and Clefable when you see and opening use Hydro Pump and Moonblast!" Ash calls as Pikachu, Charmeleon and Primeape run forward while Gyarados and Clefable charge up their moves.

We then go to the Saffron gym Yellow and Steve finally found Sabrina in her mind they smile and go to her but don't notice that something is watching them. Riley and his Pokemon are still battling the TR grunts and Gozu, Misty, Brock and the police officers have finally made it to Silph Co. they easily arrested the front guards and moved the passengers somewhere else. Misty and Brock notice Ash's Pokemon egg glowing they look up hoping Ash, Leaf, Gary and Riley are doing okay.

Back to the battle with Ash and Giovanni Ash gives a command. Gary, Leaf, Proton, Matori, Damian and the other rocket grunts look on watching the battle.

"Pikachu Iron Tail, Charmeleon Dragon Claw and Primeape Ice Punch!" "Garchomp break thru them" Both trainers call Pikachu, Charmeleon and Primeape jump forward readying their attacks while Garchomp roars about to collide with them as the chapter ends.

This is where I'm ending the chapter today. Tell me how did you guys feel about Gary and Damian's battle? Were you surprised that I gave Gary and Damian a Tyranitar, and Rhyperior respectively? I decided to give Gary a Tyranitar as it alongside Scizor explain how he defeated Sabrina and shows just how strong Gary is as a trainer.

How do you feel about Damian finally realizing what he has been doing is wrong? I decided to do this and have Damian tell Charmeleon sorry since I thought it would be an interesting development for Damian and showcase that even though he's done horrible things he's still has some kindness inside him. What are your thoughts on Ash and Giovanni finally meeting did you expect Giovanni would have a Garchomp and do you think Ash will defeat it?

Next chapter will come out next week it'll mainly focus on Ash's battle with Giovanni and more stuff as well but if I say anything else it'll spoil the chapter. A lot of stuff is going to happen next chapter and I hope you all look forward to it.

Next time Chapter 27: The Power of the Team Rocket Boss.

See you all next time!
