Scorbunny take a deep breathe and exhale it, followed with the flowing grass around his body has dissipated.

"Scorbun!" With that cry, Scorbunny turn around and approach Ash happily.

Ash snapped out of his mind and give his proud, toothy smile and give scorbunny a head rub, "That was really cool, Scorbunny!"

"Pika-pika!"

"Scorbun!" Scorbunny is appreciating the praise really much.

While for Rucco, he pulled out voltorb's pokeball.

"Return, voltorb."

Ash and everyone else pay attention to Rucco again. After returning voltorb, Rucco told voltorb, "Our strategy is already good, but it looks like something unexpected happen at the last one, so it's okay."

Rucco pulled out another pokeball and toss it, "Next up, Dragonite!"

Dragonite materialized in the battle field and instantly dragonite give Scorbunny the scariest leer, which made Scorbunny panicked.

The bunny run so fast to the crowd that made everyone except the refferee and the battler close their eyes with how many smokes scorbunny created while running away.

As the smoke clear away, one of the boys spotted scorbunny.

"There he is! He's behind that girl!"

Everyone see the way the boy point his finger and Liko and Anne realized it pointed towards either of them. When Anne and Liko looked a bit down, they saw Scorbunny, clinging on to Liko's back shaking in fear.

"U-umm.. it's okay.." Liko rub scorbunny's head gently, "That dragonite is scary.. but since you're here with us, that dragonite won't come to hurt you so... please calm down, okay?"

Slowly scorbunny fear start to disappeared, and it replace with a warm happiness.

"Scorbun!" Now scorbunny cheered up after his fear's gone.

"Good job Liko! You manage to calm down Ash's pokemon!"

"T-thanks.. Eh?"

Out of nowhere, Scorbunny sat on the left side of Liko's Lap. Sprigatito, who's been sitting on Liko's lap the entire time, decide to make space so that both of them could sat on Liko's lap comfortable.

"Nyaoo"

"Scor!"

"Nyeh."

Sprigatito looks like don't mind sharing a spot at Liko's lap to watch the battle.

Everyone else watch what's currently happening made some people start to comment, especially the girls.

"Ash's Scorbunny is fine with that blue haired girl!"

"How lucky for her to be able to have the world Monarch's pokemon befriend her that easily!"

"I'm jealous of her! I wish that was me."

"Is she supposed to be Ash Ketchum's Girlfriend?"

That last comment made Liko face flushed red so bright like a pecha Berry.

Anne nudged Liko with a tease, "Good job on scoring sith him, Liko! Hehehe."

Liko flushed brighter and retorted, "W-W-We're not dating!"

"Yet." Anne added that word, made Liko blushed to another level shade of red, "Cmon, you two were fated by the world."

Liko cannot take it anymore and her blushing face let her some smokes coming out of her head. She also started to connect some dots.

'T-This is a pattern of romance in some sort of story... and usually those who says "we're not dating" will have 50% chance of date the said person..
.I-I'm not a heroine at all... Right?'

"Okay... With Scorbunny run away from the battle to the spectators, Dragonite wins." The refferee also added, "Even though i haven't tell to start the match..."

With that announcement, everyone pay attention again back to the battle.

Rucco comment with a sweatdropped, "That... Wasn't what i expected to happen at all."

Ash and Pikachu raised their eyebrow.

"Pika?"

"What do you even expect to happen?"

"I was expecting your Scorbunny to be scared, but not that scared made your rabbit run away, hiding behind that girl over there." Rucco admitted.

"Anyway, let's continue." Ash reminded, pullingout a pokeball before he throws it, "Charizard, i choose you!"

Charizard materialized in front of charizard, and let out the loudest roar ever, causing everyone to held their ears.

"What in the world..?!" Rucco got surprised, "That charizard isn't normal at all! In fact, it's the biggest charizard i've ever seen in my life!"

Ash smirked, "Charizard is one of my strongest pokemon i have in my arsenal." Ash point fowards, "And i recommend you to go all out because my charizard is pack a punch!"

"It won't pack a punch after Dragonite use Intimidate!"

Rucco's dragonite give a charizard an intimidate glare, but charizard doesn't affected with it because he counter it with his piercing glare as well, create a tension from both sides.

Even the watchers can felt the pressure. The pressure made oshawoot holding onto Anne by circle its arm from behind her while sprigatito went defensive mode with it's ears and tail spiked up and scorbunny hugged Liko while his head looking back to the arena.

"Anyway, battle start!"

"Surprise attack, extreme speed!"

Dragonite in a blink of speed hit charizard in the Tummy, but the attack didn't damage charizard that much at all.

"I didn't see it move at all!" Liko and Anne comment in surprised.

"Now charizard, point blank Flamethrower!"

Charizard spew out fire out of his mouth and hit dragonite in the face.

"Dra!"

The attack hit dragonite in the face, followed with dragonite fly backwards from charizard.

When dragonite landed, a fiery effect show up around dragonite's body for a second.

"Nite?!"

"You gotta be kidding me, dragonite's get burned of all times that could happen?!"

Ash smirked, "Well, it's not everyday you got that burned effect."

Rucco gritted his teeth, "Damn you!"

In the sideline Anne pumped her fist, "Nice, that dragonite's get burned!"

Liko looked at Anne and ask, "Anne, is burned really that good?"

Anne nodded, "That's right Liko! When a pokemon gets burned, not only the pokemon gets damaged by the burned effect each second, the pokemon that gets burned made it decreased any physical attacks by half their power!" In the fields, dragonite and charizard traded blows with clashing with dragonite using a thunder punch whilr Charizard use Slash, "And with Rucco's dragonite got burned, all of its physical damage got cut by half!"

As Liko looked back to the fight, Liko cannot help but smile, her worry for Ash has disappeared.

Dragonite got hit twice by Charizard's Slash and he looks damaged badly.

"Aqua Tail!"

Dragonite spin and hits Charizard with aqua tail, knocked charizard a meter away.

"Are you okay, charizard?!"

"Rarrr!"

Ash smiled, "That's the charizard i know!"

"Dragonite, your physical attacks won't damage much, use Dragon pulse!"

"DRAAAA!"

Dragonite shoot out purple dragon energy out of his mouth.

"Dodge it!" Charizard tilted his head to the right, dodging the blast, "Now counter with flamethrower!"

Charizard fire off a flamethrower towards Dragonite again.

"Block it with Aqua Tail!"

The dragonite slam the flamethrower with its aqua tail sideway, create a good amount of smokes.

And it's according to the plan for Ash.

"Charizard, go through the smoke and grab him!"

Charizard did what Ash told him to do, fly through the smoke.

"Anne, does Ash intend to do something that is out of nowhere?" Liko cannot help but ask after she saw Ash's charizard fly through the smoke.

Anne nodded, "I don't know, Liko. But it's exciting to see what's going to happen!"

Meanwhile, Dragonite is almost at his limit because of the burn damage each second has passed.

'Dangit, Dragonite's not gonna hold on much longer! There has to be something to beat his charizard."

Rucco then noticed 2 red glow coming from the smokes and finally he realize what that is.

"Dragonite, Dod-"

Charizard burst through the smoke, making the dragonite and its trainer shocked for the unexpected, this follows with charizard Grabbed Dragonite's tightly.

"Now fly to the sky and use inferno Seismic Toss!"

With that, Charizard fly to the sky and do the circular flying.

"Dragonite, try to shake him off!"

Dragonite try to shake off charizard from him, but it's useless.

And then Charizard followed with a body spin and flamethrower, create a vortex of fire around both pokemons.

"Now slam it to the ground!"

Charizard fly to the ground at a high speed, create a fiery explosive upon contact with the ground itself.

When the smoke clear away, dragonite is unconsciously lying on the ground, with Charizard triumphantly give the loudest roar to the sky.

"Dragonite is BRUTALLY unable to battle, the winner is Charizard! With this the score is settled to 3-1! Now Rucco, please sent your last pokemon for this match!"

Everyone cheered with Ash's charizard winning the battle.

"Only one more fight, Ash! You can do it!" Anne cheered.

"You got this, Ash!" Even liko cheered for Ash.

"Return, dragonite!" Rucco returned dragonite back to his pokeball, "We really are unlucky with that burns hurt you, but still you did really well."

Rucco put back dragonite's pokeball and pull out his fourth pokeball, "Let's ace this up, Medicham!"

Medicham materialized from the pokeball and in a fighting pose.

"Charizard, you already got your fight, mind lend greninja and me fight together for the first time after a long time?"

Charizard looked towards Rucco and medicham, back to Ash. He knows that Greninja could take care of Medicham, so he give Ash a nod.

"Char!"

Ash happy to hear that, "Thanks Charizard, for now you return!"

Charizard went back to the Pokeball. And then Ash throw Greninja's great ball, "Greninja, i choose you!"

Greninja materialized in fromt of Ash, standing straight while crossing his arm and focusing what's in front of him.

"Ninja!"

"Greninja?" Liko pulled out her rotom phone and scanned greninja.

"Greninja, water/dark type, ninja pokemon. It appears and vanishes with a ninja's grace. It toys with its enemies using swift movements, while slicing them with throwing stars of sharpest water."

"Ash has so many strong pokemon.." Liko commented, 'I wonder if i could be as strong as Ash one day..'

"The battle will conti-"

"Hold it!" Rucco shouted, "There's something i want to say to Ash first."

Rucco then looked at Ash, "I have to admit, after facing 3 of your pokemons i truly understand that you are a great trainer, especially with your pikachu overpower my Tyranitar's hyper beam, your charizard's inferno seismic toss, and lastly your scorbunny's blocking voltorb's rollout."

Rucco pointed Ash, "And by those i said before, i admit you are the world monarch and i'll take back everything i said about bad things i said to you before this match started."

Ash grew a wide smile with widened eyes, "I'm glad you take back what you said, and i really appreciate it!"

Rucco grinned, "After being beaten by you back to back, there's no way i wouldn't believe you at all, only delusional idiot would do that." Rucco also added, "Whatever the outcomes of this battle, i'll gladly accept it!

"At least he understand what he said to Ash is really wrong." Anne commented.

'I'm really glad he didn't stay not believing at all.' Liko in her minds really hope that everything's went well in the end.

Rucco turned to the refferee, "Okay now i'm ready."

"Alright, battle start!"

"Medicham, use dual energy ball!"

Medicham create energy ball in one hand, "Create shadow ball with your other hand!" A black ball created on medicham's left hand.

Ash and the others surprised to see 2 different attacks created at the same time.

"His medicham use 2 moves at the same time?!" Anne voiced everyone's shock.

"You see Ash, i've trained my medicham to use two moves at the same time and i want you to see how efficient it is! Throw em!"

Medicham proceed to throw the shadow ball, and then the energy ball next.

"Night slash!"

Greninja pulled two dark purple kunais and cut both shadow ball and energy ball.

"Greninja, Water shuriken!"

Greninja throw the water shuriken using his left hand, continue with greninja run foward.

"Force palm!"

Medicham sent out force coming out from his palm and hit the incoming shuriken and explode when it contacts.

"Greninja, Night slash!"

Greninja summon one dark purple kunai and then hit medicham with it.

"Medicham, bullet punch!" Medicham hands turned white and then it use barrage punches at greninja.

"Dodge it, Greninja!"

Greninja dodge every single pumch without any trouble at all, greninja himself already took so many fight so it's easy to dodge these attacks (especially the remain of roots back in kalos).

"Sent him to the sky with Aerial Ace!"

Greninja glowing fist punch medicham to the sky.

Medicham hissed in pain with how strong the super effective damage truly did to him.

"Medicham!"

Medicham opened one of his eyes and saw that, greninja is blocking the view of the sun.

"Let's wrap this up with Night slash!"

Greninja purple blade shows and charge towards Medicham.

"Medicham, force palm!"

"Mediii-cham!"

Greninja dodge to the right, evading the incoming force palm and continue foward, until greninja slash medicham by went through.

Both pokemon fall down to the ground, but greninja manage to land safely while medicham fall to the ground roughly, create another crater.

Medicham shows that he's fainted by seeing the swirl on his eyes.

"Medicham is unable to battle, greninja wins. And by all 4 of rucco's pokemon got defeated, i declare that Ash ketchum wins!"

"Alright!"

"Pika!"

Everyone else cheer for the climax of the battle.

"Ash!"

Anne, Liko, and their pokemon rushed towards Ash.

"Anne, Liko!"

"That was really amazing, Ash!" Liko congratulate.

"You're not only strong, but you're also unpredictable!" Anne praised, "Like what you did with Scorbunny is already the proof how strong you really are!"

"Thank girls, it's my strength and my pokemon's strength that made us won!"

As ash said that and with everyone else praising him, Liko looked at ash with eyes full admiration. He not only think that was just his own strength, because he trust his pokemon as well.

'He's amazing... He believe in his pokemon so much..'

"Hey Ash!" Everyone looked at Rucco who has Medicham carried by his side, "That was a really good battle! Your greninja is a monster, he looks like he's not going all out against me."

Ash grinned, "That's because me and greninja didn't use our full power at all."

Rucco's eyes widened, "You mean greninja is still not using his full power?!"

"That's about it."

"Well i'll be damn." Rucco raised his hand towards Ash, offering a hand shake, "That was a fun battle, Ash! Had to admit it's an enjoyable fight."

Ash smiled back and give him a hand shake, "No problem, Rucco!"

All in all, the battle between Ash and Rucco has officially ended.

Omake:
It was night time, everyone already sleep on the night.

Except for these pokemons.

Pikachu, Scorbunny, Charizard, and Greninja sat on a meeting table, wear a tophat on their head with light in the middle to give some lights.

"Is everyone ready?" Pikachu, the leader of this meeting ask, receive three nods from the other pokemon, "Then the meeiting of get Ash a girlfriend has officially started!"

Scorbunny raised his hand, "I'm new to this group so i wanna ask, why do we have this kind of meeting this night?"

"Simple, we had enough of Ash not get to date someone for a long time." It was pikachu who replied, "I've been with Ash for the longest time and this guy has met so many girls in his journey, yet he didn't date EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM!"

"I agree, there were potential candidate for some girls he met to be his girlfriend."

"And the closest one is Serena." Greninja informed, "She is the one that the closest thing she do is kissing Ash in the lips."

Charizard eyes widened, "You mean Ash got a first kiss already?!"

Greninja nodded.

"Yeah, and now we have our last hope." Pikachu shows the photo of Liko, "Liko is the last girl around Ash's age and looks like she admire Ash way more after the battle with Rucco this afternoon."

Scorbunny added, "And she's a caring girl, perfect for someone like Ash! She even calm me down after i got scared by that dragonite."

"So i ask you guys for some plan to made Ash closer to Liko, anyone got ideas?"

And then charizard raised his hand, "You guys remember that Liko girl's sprigatito still not in fond with her right?"

Everyone nodded for confirmation.

"So i propose that Ash helps out Liko and sprigatito in fond with each other, how about that?"

Everyone in the meeting thinking for the proposed plan, and then pikachu gives him a nod, "Alright then, that's the plan we will get along with for now."

Pikachu take off his tophat, "Everyone, this meeting for tonight is dismissed."

Everyone get back to their designated spot for sleeping with pikachu turn off the light and go back to the bed and sleep.
