Pokémon Trainer Hero
Chapter 10: Villains vs. Pokemon, part. 5. FINAL
The trainer and his Pokemon stood in a face-off against the two villains and their creation, neither side showing to back down. The Pokemon looked ready and determined, Nomu looked dead, Tomura looked pissed and intrigued, and Gar looked ready for the final battle! Not a single sound was made, or movement was shown by either side, waiting for even one of them to slip up or show weakness.
Then it happened.
Both sides moved simultaneously and came face to face with each other in a charge of pounding feet and animalistic cries! The two sides closed in on one another in moments, and the real fight began! Pokemon went flying away from Nomu's hits left and right. The Pokemon unleashed their attacks by the dozens with Gar on the front lines with them and giving commands the whole time! The Nomu was beaten, burned, sliced, and other things as the Pokemon swarmed it like a hive of Beedrill!
"Tyranaitar, use Earthquake!" Gar shouted, and the large dinosaur Pokemon hit the ground with its fists, causing a violent quaking under Nomu's feet!
"Machamp, use Mach Punch!" Gar commanded, and the Human looking Pokemon ran in with a fist glowing with energy as it punched the Nomu square in the face!
"Rhydon, use Horn Drill!" Gar followed up as the large upright Dinosaur Rhino pokemon charged forward with its single horn rotating. The horn pierced through Nomu's skin and sank deep inside of its chest! The Nomu roared in pain as Rhydon continued to push forward! Suddenly Nomu grabbed the Pokemon, pulled its horn out from its chest, and then threw the creature straight into the air! The Pokemon landed on the ground with a mighty crash!
"Rhydon, are you okay!?" Gar called the animal!
Rhydon let out a strange roar in response, and Gar clicked his tongue at the Nomu! He had to think of a different approach. Brute force wouldn't do much, so he had to think smarter, not harder.
"Victreebel, use Acid!" he commanded the giant living pitcher plant!
The plant then sucked in some air and spat out huge globules of purple acid right on the monster. The Nomu screams in pain again as the acid begins to melt away the skin, revealing its bones! That's when Gar knew he had a better chance. No, he just had to get it to stay still long enough for the second part to work.
He looked at the Pokemon and commanded, "Metagross, use Psychic!"
The large, metal, four-legged Pokémon's eyes began to glow with mystic power, and the Nomu was lifted into the air!
Gar then quickly followed up, saying, "Typhlosion, use Explosion and Talonflame, use Flame Burst!"
The large badger-like Pokemon with flames coming from the back of its neck turned around and blasted the hovering Nomu with a plume of flames, while a large orange and blackbird of prey shot a ball of fire from its beak that became the kanji for fire, and blasted off towards the monster! The twin attack hit dead-on in an explosion of fire! Smoke filled the area as the Pokemon and trainer waited for the results.
A moment later a shape appeared from the smoke and charged right at the immediate Pokemon! Machamp managed to block the attack, Tyranaitar tanked the attack like it was nothing, Metagross used its psychic powers to put up a shield, Typhlosion was sent a good way away from the attack, Talonflame flew high enough to dodge, but Victreebel had gotten hit so hard hit flew clear across the area and right by Gar! Where it passed out after slamming into a fallen tree!
"Victreebel, return!" Gar shouted as the plant turned into energy and went back into its ball.
When Gar turned back, he was horrified and shocked at what he saw emerge from the smoke; the Nomu, half-melted and charred up with a missing eye and many parts of its metallic skeleton exposed! Gar knew at that moment, whatever this thing was, it wasn't anything natural! Not like Mewtwo, or Genesect, or even Silvally; this thing was a real deal Frankenstein's monster! This means that there was no holding BACK!
Not that he was anyway.
He saw Typhlosion get up from the dirt with a painful yet pissed-off expression, then saw Nomu run straight toward the pokemon to finish it off! Gar thought fast and commanded the bear mouse pokemon, "Dodge and use Thunder Punch!"
Typhlosion quickly ducked under Nomu's punch and generated electricity around its upper limb, where it threw a punch right up and into its jaw! The Nomu took the attack as best as it could and just managed to grab the bear mouse's head! It then proceeds to smash its head into the ground repeatedly!
Gar saw Typhlosion was already out of commission and returned the Pokemon to its ball. "Typhlosion, return! Guess we'll have to try a different approach. Aromatisse, use Overpowering Scent!" Gar commanded the large purply pink perfume bottle bird!
The strange bird creature then emitted a large cloud of pink vapor into the air around its body that spread all over!
"Talonflame, Staraptor, Articuno, Noivern, Braviary, Unfezant, blow away the scent towards the Nomu!" he commanded the winged pokemon!
The Flying Pokemon obeyed and flapped their wings hard enough to move the scent cloud barreling towards the monster! The cloud engulfed the beast, and its scent was so overpowering that the Nomu dropped to its knees, hacking and coughing as its eyes watered! It blew so far that it reached the other two villains. Kurogiri dropped to his knees and tried to open a portal to alleviate the smoke, while Tomura was so severely affected by it that he promptly threw upright on the rocky ground!
As the smell stunted the Nomu, Gar quickly gave another command, saying, "Treveant, use Nature's Curse!"
A large Tree Pokemon with an angry expression on its bark and one red eye casket back in darkness stepped forward and unleashed a strange attack. Purple energy swirled around its body then absorbed into its angry-looking mouth, where it shot out in the form of a wicked-looking ghoulish face that laughed while traveling toward the downed creature. The face hit the monster, and all the purple energy pooled right into its body. Suddenly, plants began to sprout from the ground and enraptured themselves around the Nomu like chains; even plants from around the area joined in the restraining!
"Ambipom, Mawile, Espeon, use Swift!" Gar commanded!
The two-tailed, purple monkey with hands on the tails, a small humanoid creature with a mouth on the back of its head, and a purple cat-like creature with a red gem in its forehead and a tail that split off into two parts at the tip, all released huge amounts of star-shaped projectiles from their bodies! The stars flew through the air and crashed right into the Nomu, creating a huge cloud!
Tyranaitar, Metagross, Rhyhorn, Haxorus, Snorlax, use Hyper Beam!" Gar immediately followed up as all four pokemon released a massive beam of energy from their mouths!
The beams flew toward the Nomu and exploded, causing even more of a dust cloud to rise!
"Steelix, use Fissure!" Gar commanded the large steel-coated snake creature!
The snake then slammed its heavy tail onto the ground and opened a crack that the Nomu fell in and became trapped!
"Now Crunch!" he followed up, and the metal snake slithered forward only to slam its face straight into the crack with teeth bared!
When it pulled its head up from the hole, the Nomu was trapped halfway up its body in Steelix's teeth! Steelix bit down hard, but Nomu's body only expanded like taffy or rubber! The Nomu then used its freed arms to slam both onto the Pokémon's head, where the impact made the Pokemon let go of its prey!
As soon as Nomu touched the ground, Gar immediately commanded, exclaiming, "Use Iron Head!"
Steelix then charged at the monster, head first, and prepared to smash it! But the Nomu punched it hard enough to halt its attack!
Steelix fell from the sudden stop, and Gar dropped his mouth in a gasp! The Nomu readied to attack again, but Gar quickly shouted, "Flash Cannon!"
Steelix then opens its mouth and shoots a beam of metallic-looking light directly at the monster! The beam continued in a steady stream for over several seconds before finally stopping. Once it did, the Nomu was still standing in the same spot, albeit with extremely red skin. The creature then grabbed Steelix by its jaw and flipped it over its head, where it slammed the Pokemon on the ground with enough force to shake everyone in the facility!
Gar whipped out the Pokeball and yelled, "Steelix, return!" and the pokemon turned into energy while in Nomu's grasp.
When the monster turned around to face the rest of the horde, a bunch of plants sprouted up from the ground once more and bound the Nomu. Nature's Curse was still in effect.
Gar took advantage of this and commanded, "Mawile, Aromstisse, Mimikyu, use Play Rough!"
Then, the three Pokemon dashed up to the trapped Nomu and tackled it in a cartoon dust cloud with sound effects and objects thrown around! Before the dust settled, the Play Rough managed to knock loose the Nomu's arms, allowing it to grab both Mawile and Aromatisse! The monster then slammed the two Pokemon together, which caused Aromatisse to faint, yet Mawile held on long enough to receive another command!
"Crunch!" Gar shouted as Mawile used its second mouth to bite down on the monster's face!
But it was ineffective as the Nomu simply slapped the Pokemon off, finally making it faint.
"Mawile, Aromatisse, return!" Gar shouted while returning both Pokemon! The Nomu then set its eyes on Mimikyu, who was staring down the monster with glittering eyes!
"Wood Hammer!" Gar shouted, and the pokemon jumped up and slammed the Monster in its face with his tail! "Mimikyu, back to me!" Gar commanded, and Mimikyu returned to the group of Pokemon.
More vines and plants sported up once more and restrained the Nomu in place!
Gar shot out his arm and exclaimed, "Boltund, use Volt Tackle, Houndoom, use Mega Horn, Persian, use Slash!"
A yellow and black Greyhound Pokemon then generated electricity around its body and charged straight at the Nomu. Then the Devilish-looking dog Pokemon charged at the Nomu with its Ram-like horns glowing. Lastly, the large Siamese-looking cat retracts its claws while running up to the Nomu. The electric Greyhound crashed right into its chest, sending electricity to course all around its body! The Devilish dog Pokemon rammed into the Nomu's ribs with its horns, and the large Siamese cat Pokemon jumped into the air and landed a huge slash mark across the Numos neck and shoulder!
However, all the attacks it took only caused the plants around its body to fall loose and free the Nomu once more. To which it grabbed Houndoom by its horns and used it as a flail against Boltund and Persian! Persian just managed to get away, but Boltund wasn't so lucky and was sent flying! The Nomu then tried to smash Persian with Houndoom's body, yet kept missing every time! Persian tried to retaliate using Power Gem, but Nomu grabbed the Pokémon's face with its other hand and made the attack explode right in its face!
"Bound, Houndoom, Persian, return!" Gar shouted while returning all Pokemon.
As the Nomu locked its eyes on Gar, it was unaware of something small approaching from behind. Its gemstone eyes glittered in Nomu's own shadow as its teeth chattered with excitement!
Before Nomu could dash forward, Gar suddenly shouted, "Sableye, use Fury Swipes!"
Suddenly a small purple creature with gemstone eyes and other precious stones on its body burst from the shadows and began to swipe furiously at the Nomu with small sharp claws! All while vines sprouted from the ground once more and bound the Nomu!
The Nomu tried to grab the little goblin crawling all over him with only one arm still free! But Gar quickly gave another command, saying, "Shadow Claw!" The little goblin's claws became engrossed in dark matter as it gave a single large cut across its face! "Obsidian Fang!" Gar followed up as darkness pooled into the Pokémon's sharp fangs, turning them black!
The Goblin then scurried around to its back, jumped up to its neck, and nearly swallowed its whole brain in its mouth while biting down! The Pokemon bit down hard and took off a huge chunk of its brain in one bite! Only leaving both eyes a few scrap pieces left behind. The Nomu tittered around but promptly fell onto its face in the ground with a large wet-sounding THUMP!
Gar snapped his fingers and exclaimed, "Nice work, Sableye!"
The Pokemon spat out the brain and smiled at its trainer with sharp white teeth. However, Nomu's body then rose again behind the small Pokemon. The Pokemon froze and slowly turned its head around, only to be met with a fist and buried into the earth! Nomu looked back at the remaining Pokemon with its now healing brain.
"OH, COME ON!" Gar shouted while returning Sableye!
Gar also noticed that none of the plants were sprouting up and restraining the Nomu, meaning Nature's Curse wore out. Seeing as this gave him a leg up, he decided to reinstate the ability.
He looked to Treveant and commanded, "Treveant, use Nature's Curse again!"
The living Tree ghost obeyed, but before it could project the attack, the Nomu, and its still healing brain dashed forward and slammed the tree with a body slam! Treveant fell to the floor and passed out!
Gar growled as he shouted in distress and aggravation, "Treveant, return! Haxorus, Aegislash, Drapion, your up!" he called to the upright armored dinosaur dragon with two tusks that looked like ax blades, a living sword with ribbon arms and a shield, and a giant purple scorpion with a tail that matched its pincer arms!
The three Pokemon advanced as the Nomu's brain was near all the way regenerated. Drapion took the lead with Haxorus not too far behind, and Aegislash took the far rear! Gar then commanded, "Drapion, use Cross Poison!" Drapion then generated poison onto its two pinchers and made an x motion with them, and it hit the Nomu across its face and chest!
"Haxorus, use Dragon Breath!" he shouted in command! Haxorus then sucked in air and breathed out a blast of concentrated multi-colored energy right at the Nomu, which spread around its whole body!
"Aegislash, use Sacred Sword!" he commanded the living sword! The sword then unsheathed itself from its shield, grabbed its shield, and used the counterweight to fling itself across in a slashing arch with its glowing blade! The slash hit the Nomu over its shoulder and caused part of its chest and one arm to be severed in one go! It seems like the Nomu was done for, but yet again, the creature pulled another fast one as its brain had fully healed up.
The Nomu then used its one good arm to land three punches on each Pokemon! Haxorus was sent flying quite a ways away, Aegislash managed to protect itself from the attack by using Shadow sneak, on Gar's command, and Drapion managed to catch the fist in its pincers and tail!
"Drapion, use Cross Chop!" Gar commanded as the Pokemon released its arms while still holding with its tail and made another X motion across Nomu's body!
Haxorus got up from the ground and charged forward with new vigor. Gar saw this and shouted, "Haxorus, use Slash!"
Haxorus then whipped its head like a mace and slashed a chunk out of Nomu's back in one go! At this time, Aegislash came up from the ground and used its blade to wack at the Nomu with Ghostly power!
"Drapion, Dark Pulse, Haxorus, Night Slash, Aegislash, use Sacred Sword!" Gar quickly commanded all three Pokemon!
Drapion grabbed Nomu's body with its claws and blasted it in the face with Dark Pulse. Haxorus embodied its mouth blades with dark energy and slashed across its back, while Aegislash performed the same maneuver as before but hit its good side with its usable arm! A massive explosion occurred and sent all three Pokemon back!
However, when Gar looked around, he only saw Haxorus had been pushed back by sheer force. He looked confused at this till his stomach dropped at the mere thought of it! And when the smoke dropped, he was right! The Nomu's good arm was holding back Aegislash's blade mid-attack, while its new arm had been fully regrown and was now holding Drapion by its neck!
The Nomu then used the sword Pokemon as a weapon against Drapion, slamming the sword Pokémon's shield against the scorpion Pokémon's head repeatedly! Then turned around and used its strength and the shield to punch the dragon blade Pokemon! The Nomu then took the sword, slammed it against the ground, pulled its arm back into the punch, and prepared to smash it against the ground!
"King's Shield!" Gar quickly shouted!
Aegislash then sheathed itself back in its shield and put up a barrier made of little hexagons that protected itself entirely from the attack! But Nomu was persistent and kept punching the forcefield with strong blows! Eventually, the movie gave out on the tiring Pokemon, and the shield dropped, leaving Aegislash exposed. The Nomu took the opportunity and, this time, stomped its foot onto the hilt of the Pokemon, finally causing it to faint!
"Drapion, Haxorus, Aegislash, return!" Gar returned the downed Pokemon! "Weavile, use Ice Beam!" Gar immediately shouted as the upright weasel with a redhead crest shot a beam of ice at Nomu. Said Nomu dashed up to the weasel and stomped the small Pokemon into the ground, where Gar returned it immediately!
"Noivern, use Sonic Boom!" Gar commanded the large dragon-like bat with boom box ears!
The Dragon bat then sent off a loud sound wave with devastating power at the creature! The sound was so intense that it shattered any nearby glass, broke apart any plants, and cracked boulders! The Nomu covered its nonexistent ears and wailed in pain as the screeching continued! Once it finally stopped, the monster took one of the broken boulders and lobbed it right at the Pokemon faster than it could react! The boulder smashed against the Pokemon and caused it to faint, and Gar returned it safely to a Pokeball.
The Nomu then grabbed more large boulders and began to throw them at the bird Pokemon flying overhead! Gar commanded the birds to dodge and keep on the run, to which all obeyed and managed to avoid every rock thrown at them! When Nomu ran out of rocks to throw in the immediate vicinity, that's when Gar knew he had a chance to strike!
"Braviary, Staraptor, use Brave Bird, Unfezant, Talonflame, use Air Slash!" Gar commanded the birds!
The giant Eagle with red, white head feathers and the large starling bird with an emo haircut both flew up high and then dove down at the strange blue energy that enveloped their bodies! The Birds flew down at the Nomu and then rammed the creature with their bodies! While the large pheasant with a pink mask and the orange and blackbird of prey flapped their wings so hard it created air currents made to be sharp as blades!
However, the attack was ineffective, and the creature took the opportunity to grab one of the brave birds' recoil and began to smash it against the ground hard enough for the rock to break loose! After it threw the eagle to the side, it took the rocks and threw them at the remaining pokemon! Both Unfezant and Talonflame went down while Staraptor dodged, and Articuno managed to grab one of the rocks with its long tail and threw it right back at the monster! Gar safely returned Unfezant, Talonflame, and Braviary to their Pokeballs before the Nomu could do more.
Before the Nomu could turn its full attention towards the other Pokemon and trainer, the creature's attention was taken by the little pattering of tiny footsteps charging in unison. The Nomu turned its head and saw several creatures in yellow armor that looked like walking roman soldier helmets with blue eyes and tiny shields at their sides, the leader had a large red chest showing his leadership. This Pokemon was Falinks, and it was charging at Nomu with a First Impression attack. But the Nomu was quick and placed its foot out in front of the leader! The group came to a crashing stop as the leader's crest got wedged between the monster's feet. The Nomu then reached its foot back and kicked the pokemon like a bowling ball, which caused the other members of its group to spread around like toppled pins! Gar quickly returned the valorized Pokemon safely.
Now the Nomu was entirely concentrated on Gar and dashed to him at its full speed! Gar panicked and told Dragapult to fly up quickly! Just before the monster could get a third of the way to where he was, Nomu suddenly felt his whole body stop and float in the air. It looked around and saw the strange four-legged metal thing and the pink two-tail gemstone cat with glowing eyes, producing their physic energy to stop the Nomu mid-attack! The Nomu then grabbed the Stoney ground and began to pull itself toward the two physic animals!
The two Pokemon then used their mind powers to instead hold the Nomu down with a crushing force! But the monster's stretchy body kept it from being affected by the intense meta weight on its body, and it continued to claw its way towards them! Espeon and Metagross were now starting to show signs of strain as they sweated from trying to put even more pressure on the Nomu to hold it back! But every time they did, the monster would just keep pulling itself forward, slowly getting closer and closer!
Eventually, Gar took the initiative and gave another command to his Pokemon, "Ambipom, use Double Hit!"
Then a medium-sized purple monkey with a big smile and two tails with hands at their ends jumped over to the crawling monster and slapped it in the face twice with its tail hands! The Nomu stopped crawling from flinching, which allowed Metagross and Espeon to let their psychic powers free to rest.
Gar then followed up, exclaiming, "Snorlax, use Giga Impact!"
Suddenly the large fat bear pillow Pokemon jumped up from the ground and ran towards the creature! A wind cone was produced around its body as its belly started to change to red color! Ambipom jumped from the ground and somehow managed to land on Snorlax's head. The Pokemon then body slammed it and sent the monster flying! Snorlax yawned as Gar and Ambipom cheered its success! However, the Nomu came back with full force and closed the distance between the two in just a minute! More than enough time for Gar to come up with a quick strategy.
Once the Nomu was just a few yards away, Gar exclaimed, "Snorlax, use High Horsepower!"
Snorlax then kicked Nomu, once it got close enough, then used its foot as leverage to hold its body up and then gave another kick right to the monster's jaw! This caused Snorlax to do a backflip and made Ambipom climb to its butt, ready to attack!
"Shadow Claw!" Gar shouted as Ambipom hands became cloaked in darkness and turned into sharp claws!
The monkey Pokemon then jumped from Snorlax and began to swipe at the monster's chest and face with both hands! Ambipom jumped away from the monster once the deed was done but quickly froze when it saw a large shadow cast right in front of it. Then Snorlax landed right on top of Ambipom, smushing the Pokemon flat! All thanks to the quick work of Nomu, who grabbed Snorlax by its leg, mid-air, and then used its huge body to slam down on the two-tailed monkey!
The Nomu then slammed Snorlax a few more times before throwing it right at the two physic types on stand-by. Metagross managed to dodge, but Espeon wasn't so lucky as it tried to put up a forcefield of protection. The Protect did keep it from receiving the blow, but the impact was so great it sent both Pokemon flying, where Espeon was pinched against a wall to the back and fainted with Snorlax!
"Ambipom, Snorlax, Espeon, return!" Gar shouted while returning the three pokemon safely back!
When the three Pokemon were disposed of, Nomu tried to run back towards the older teen on the ghost Dragon to fulfill his master's orders. It even managed to get by Metagross in one quick flash of dust, but another Pokemon was again stopped by blocking the path! It was medium-sized and appeared as a wool-less upright sheep with yellow skin and black markings with red gems on its head and the tip of its tail! The sheep jumped in the way and tried to block the monster by spreading their arms in a show of bravery! Nomu grabbed the sheep in a bear hug and quickly started to squeeze it to death!
"Ampharos, use Thunder!" Gar commanded as the sheep generated a bolt of electricity from the red orb on its tail. The thunder hit the monster dead on and caused it to release the pokemon! Gar took the opening and shouted, "Thunder Punch!"
The sheep reeled back its stubby arm and then punched it into Nomu's abdomen, where electricity flowed from it, shocking the monster and causing its body to convulse!
Gar quickly followed up, saying, "Now, Iron Tail!" The Pokémon's tail glowed brightly as it turned to the color and texture of steel, then began to strike the creature over and over rapidly!
At this point, Gar noticed something very interesting about Nomu's anatomy. After the electricity has passed over its body, it immediately loses its elastic-like properties, making it just as soft as any other person. Gar saw this and decided to use it to its full potential! If he could keep heading it with electric-type moves, his Pokemon might be able to finish it off for good!
Gar then commanded Ampharos to use a Thunder attack, but before the Pokémon could shoot electricity from the orb on its tail, the monster quickly grabbed the orb and began to slam the sheep Pokemon against the ground repeatedly! Gar quickly changed gears and returned Ampharos to its ball. Gar's plan had gone up in flames before it began.
Gar was starting to get worried now. He only had a few Pokemon left and everyone he sent so far; no matter the condition, number, strength, or strategy he used, they would fall like Zubat with a Thunder Shock! As of now, he only had Machamp, Rhydon, Tyranaitar, Metagross, Articuno, Staraptor, Mimikyu, and Dragapult. So what was he to do now?
Suddenly the Nomu dashed forward again, but this time was stopped by Metagross, who held the creature back with its front legs! The two struggled against one another in a tug of war standoff, with both having equal strength and footing! But the Nomu showed its superior strength again as it slowly started to push back even harder on Metagross, whose feet were beginning to become plowed into the ground, and signs of fatigue were showing on its metallic face! Gar knew that Metagross couldn't hold out forever, and he had to take action before the monster either K. Metagross or took out several Pokemon he might also throw at it!
It was at that time he knew he had to pull out all the stops no matter what! So he reached into one of his pouches and pulled out a small wrist band with a small multi-colored stone with a teardrop symbol on it. He slipped it over his wrist, and closing his eyes, he spoke to Metagross, telling him to connect. Metagross obliged and relaxed its body and mind. When the two were in perfect sync, Gar raised his arm in the air with eyes shot open and recited some kind of speech.
"Keystone, react to my heart!"
"What in the world is he doing this time?", Tomura asked?
"Desperation perhaps?", Kurogiri thought aloud.
Then white beams of energy flowed from the stone and into Metagross, making its body illuminate. "Send life energy forth and connect us as one! Unearth the power laid dormant inside and bring it to the surface for a greater transformation! Beyond power, beyond will, beyond evolution, MEGA EVOLVE!"
The white beams then encircled the Pokemon in a vast sphere that appeared to harden, then crack until it burst open in a display of light, revealing a much different-looking Metagross! Metagross now had eight legs, four huge ones in the front, and four smaller ones in the back. It also had a much larger jaw, chin spike, and rounded head. Metagross was now floating in mid-air but not moving an inch as the Nomu was now the one straining to move the metallic creature even an inch!
Now it was Metagross's turn to push back with its four front legs as it began to levitate its body against Nomu's strength and make it move with relative ease! Now the Nomu was the one struggling to hold Metagross back on its own feet as it was getting plowed into the ground! Tomura looked on in shock, not because his Nomu was getting overpowered, but because of what he saw Metagross just do!
"No way! It-It changed forms!", Tomura mouths silently in shock.
Then Metagross pulled away from one of its massive arms and hit it against the monster, sending it flying across the area and past Tomura, where it slammed into a boulder!
"And it got stronger?!", Tomura said a little louder.
"That's right, Tomura!" Gar stated while getting the villains' attention back to him. "That's called Mega Evolution. Not only does Pokémon's appearance change, but so do its stats, making them even stronger! And right now, Metagross is one hell of a tank that can move fast, hit hard, and take damage!"
"Now that thing is just like my Nomu!", Tomura muttered under his breath angrily!
The Nomu pulled itself out of the boulder hole, and before it could pull itself out, Gar commanded his pokemon, "Metagross, use Meteor Mash!"
Metagross then zoomed up to the Nomu and whacked it with a strike of two of its front arms, making the monster suck back in the boulder again!
"Hyper Beam!" Gar shouted as Metagross shot the pale yellow energy attack from its mouth directly at the monster and sent it through the boulder! Steam wafted off the monster's body as everyone waited to see if that did the job. But no, it wasn't. The Nomus arm shot up and tried to grab the Pokemon, who, with its super computer-like brain, easily predicted this and easily moved out of the way and back to Gar. The Nomu pulled itself up from the ground, and, taking the broken boulders in its huge hands, it began to throw them in rapid succession at Metagross and the other Pokemon. However, the attack was stopped immediately as Gar commanded Metagross, "Use Physic to stop the rocks!"
Metagross obeyed and used its mind powers to stop all the boulders mid-flight! The stones fell to the ground, and Gar got an idea. He then turned to his remaining pokemon and commanded, "Tyranaitar, break apart the boulders around us. Machamp, Rhyhorn fling all the boulders back at the Nomu. Metagross, help them out with Psychic!"
The Pokemon did as they were told and started to break apart and throw dozens of rocks at the monster, which pelted and peppered it like a cartoon character. The onslaught of rocks continued until there was no more to grab or break apart from boulders. The Nomu now looked far worse for wear as it now had several huge indents in its body, all of which were slowly healing.
Gar thought this to be weird since its body only lost its elastic-like properties when exposed to electricity. Then it dawned on him, also due to his mental connection to Metagross. Its body was like rubber: the more or longer you stretch it without rest, it'll break or lose its elastic properties. He'd just have to attack it harder and faster than its body could heal the damage and keep its rubber likeness consistent! He finally had a chance! And now he was going to go all out with it!
"Metagross, use Psychic again!" Gar commanded as the mega evolved Pokemon used its mind powers to lift the healing creature up and then crush it with said powers!
When the monster fell, Tomura gave it a new command, demanding, "Alright Nomu, new plan! Kill that metal thing first, then kill the brat and his other pets after!"
The Nomu obeyed and dashed towards Metagross with top speeds! Metagross's supercomputer mind went through several calculations, and once the Nomu was in the range of its plan, it used its levitation to spin out of the charging attack swiftly! The Nomu came to a screeching halt and turned around to attack again!
"Metagross, kite that thing away!" Gar commanded, and Metagross obeyed.
The Pokemon then tucked its legs like a torpedo and zoomed off into the distance with the monster not too far behind! Metagross swiveled and swirled through tons of obstacles to shake the Nomu. But the monster only leaped over, smashed through, or turned on a dime through every environment block! The two creatures only picked up speed with each passing second and started to zig-zag and encircle the huge facility at speeds the eye couldn't see!
Though Gar could see everything that was happening thanks to Metagross's mind connection to him, Gar was the one giving mental commands to his Pokemon and telling it to lead the Nomu astray for long enough! If this thing is made of flesh, then it just had to have a stamina limit. Gar just had to bring it to its end.
The chase continued for several minutes, with Metagross using its super mind and Gar's commands to keep Nomu at a safe distance and keeping it following him to exhaustion. At this point, the Nomu was showing obvious signs of fatigue, as it breathed heavily and drooled like a dog! Gar knew this was his time to strike and mentally called Metagross to lead the monster back.
Once the two had burst through a tree line, Gar immediately told Metagross to stop and face Nomu with a Meteor Mash! Metagross obeyed and stopped on the spot while spinning around with two of its front legs ready to attack! But the Nomu was quick, and once the Pokemon threw the punch, it grabbed both arms in his muscular hands, stopping the attack with ease!
Gar smiled at this, hoping the Nomu would catch the attack, then exclaimed, "Use Hyper Beam!"
Metagross unleashed the energy attack right at the Nomu and sent it back! Gar then followed up, saying, "Now Giga Impact!"
Metagross tucked in its limbs and zoomed to the Nomu like a rocket, creating a winding cone in the process! The Pokemon slammed right into the monster and kept on going, even after the tackle! Metagross kept zooming forward with the Nomu trapped in its four front limbs while the Nomu waved and wiggled helplessly like a flag in the wind! Metagross kept going and didn't lose speed as it sailed and crashed straight through the whole facility and everything in it, no matter what it was!
Metagross kept going until it came to the cliff face of the in-ground facility. But Metagross just kept going, shifting its gears and flying up the face of the cliff, then up the dome where it kept charging until it was on the ceiling, and still charging fast! Metagross kept going until it was over the spot where Gar, the other Pokemon, and the two villains were still standing and dropped straight down! The fall created more momentum and made them both fall faster until Metagross threw the Nomu directly to the ground, where it bounced off like a ball!
Gar then quickly shouted, "Giga Impact, again!"
Metagross tucked its limbs in again, and while still falling, it zoomed down right at the Nomu at top speed! It rammed into the Nomu between the ground and created a massive explosion of dirt and stone all over! The blast was so great that Kurogiri had to put up a portal, and Dragapult had to blast any rock chunks away with Dragon Darts! When the dust cloud was still at its peak, Metagross emerged from it completely unscathed, but no Nomu insight. Not wanting to wait around for the inevitable to happen, Gar told his remaining bird Pokemon to blow away the dust. They did and revealed the Nomu pinched in the ground like a seed on dried-out soil!
The Nomu grabbed the sides of the dirt and began to pull itself out slowly from the impact! As Gar predicted, Nomu's body had a huge indent in it that was slowly healing, very, very slowly. Even if the thing wasn't natural, it still had natural limits. Everything was connected in one form or another. The amount of stamina it had meant how fast it could heal, hit it hard enough, and the blow won't be absorbed or bounced off. All Gar had to do was keep it exhausted and keep hitting it hard!
While this was happening, Tomura was getting increasingly anxious! Gar was finding out Nomu's limitations and weaknesses long before it could kill him, which was its original intent. If the Nomu failed to take out the kids' pets before it could kill All Might, they'd have to start from square one again! And Tomura didn't want that! Nomu was doing fine as it picked off the 'Pokemon' one by one, but now, one went through some kind of powerup hack and was screaming his Nomu left and right!
Tomura then felt a light tap on his shoulder, which made his skin flinch, and he turned around to hear Kurogiri offer an idea. "If I may, my young lord, I believe it's time we intervene." Tomura smiled under the hand on his face and nodded in agreement. Kurogiri then opened a portal over Mega Metagross and, like last time, dumbed a stream of water equivalent to Waterfall on the Pokémon's head. However, when the water stopped, they both were shocked to see a perfectly fine Mega Pokemon standing(or floating) in place, dripping wet, and with a displeased expression on its face as it stared them down. Before anyone could do any other movement or talk, Metagross used its mind powers to break a chunk of Kurogiri's neck brace right off! The mist man fell to the ground and clutched at his neck while coughing and gasping for air!
"Did you think that would work a second time?" Gar stated. "Metagross is part Steel type, and Steel types aren't weak to water attacks; they are ineffective. You can douse a flame, but you can't break metal with water."
Tomura looked between his escape door on the floor, his weakening monster, and the Pokemon staring him down! He had to think of something quickly before he shared Kurogiri's fate! He tried to step back but nearly tripped over something. He looked down and saw that it was a buried power line. This gave Tomura an idea!
He looked over at the slowly rising Nomu and commanded, "Nomu, pull up one of the power lines and use it against that metal thing!"
The Nomu obeyed and moved faster than the blink of an eye as it pulled itself from the ground and ripped out a power line straight from the hole it was in! The monster then jumped towards Metagross and, breaking the cable apart, it touched the wires to the Pokémon's wet body! The Pokémon's body illuminated like a light bulb from the electricity coursing around its body and cooking the water to the point of boiling!
Eventually, the flow of electricity stopped, and Metagross had several electrical burns all over its metal coat. Metagross stopped levitating and fell to the ground with swirls in its eyes. The Mega Pokemon glowed again and returned to its previous natural form. Gar gasped, Tomura smiled, and Nomu roared in victory!
"Metagross, return!" Gar called out while returning the fainted Pokemon!
Now Gar only had six pokemon left, and he didn't know if they could beat this thing now. He used up his one mega evolution chance and would have to wait with time he didn't have. But Gar tightened his fist and knew he wouldn't back down now! He could give up! So long as he had even a single Pokemon, he had a fighting chance!
"Tyranaitar, use Dragon Tail, Rhydon, use Iron Tail!" Gar commanded.
The two giant Pokemon then ran over to the Nomu and took a swipe at it with their tails! Rhydon's tail became a steel-like surface and Tyranitar's glowing green with a scale-like layer! The two Pokemon flung their tails at the monster, and Nomu caught both Pokemon in each hand! Just as Gar predicted.
"Staraptor, use Steel Wing!" Gar commanded the emo bird as its wing became a steel-like surface and slammed both into the creature's exposed brain!
The Numo flinched and dropped its grip over Rhydon and Tyranitar's tails.
"Machamp, use Close Combat!" Gar shouted as the four-armed humanoid creature ran forward and began to throw punches at an unnatural speed!
The hits were so fast and precise that no one could even see the Pokémon's hands as they flew forward on Nomu's face, only the movement of its body and the aftereffect of Nomu taking each blow! The whole screen looked like a one-sided anime fight as Nomu's body took the effect of anime physics from each unnatural punch! When the assault ended, Machamp grabbed the Nomu under its arms and began to squeeze it tightly!
Gar then shot his hand out and exclaimed, "Rhydon, Tyranaitar, throw Machamp and Nomu into the air!"
The two Pokemon did as they were told, and with their combined strength, they easily threw both Pokemon and monster clear into the air! Once they reached the climax of their ascent, Machamp arched its body and then started to spin like a pinwheel while descending at a much faster rate! The spinning continued as everyone watched in awe and amazement! While in the spin cycle, Machamp didn't look dizzy or sick, while Nomu looked ready to throw up as it waved around like a limp noodle.
Once the two of them were near the ground, Gar quickly commanded, "Machamp, use Seismic Toss!"
The moment they were just a few yards off the ground, Machamp used the moment to throw the Nomu off its shoulders fully and right against the ground where it left a huge creator! The throw to impact was so powerful that it made Tomura and Kurogiri bounce in place!
Before Machamp could fully reach the ground from the attack, Gar shouted to the Pokemon, "Machamp, Tyranaitar, Rhydon, Triple attack!" Rhydon came from the right, Tyranaitar came from the left, and Machamp came from above as all three of them sent their fists right into Nomu's squishy body and head! The triple strike was so powerful that it caused a small shock wave to roll over the whole field!
But it didn't end there; as Nomu was pinned down in the dirt, the three Pokemon continued to beat into the monster with their full force! The Nomu still stayed pinned and didn't move an inch to fight back! Tomura did not like this at all!
So with all his anger boiling in him, he shouted at the monster, "NOMU! I command you to get up and kill those animals!"
With that command, the Nomu was filled with new vigor as it tucked in its limbs and then shot up while redirecting the blows from the Pokemon right at them with its body! Tyranaitar slid back, as did Rhydon, but Machamp was sent back flying in a good way!
Gar acted quickly and exclaimed, "Rhyhorn, use Superpower!"
The giant rhino Pokemon dug its feet into the earth, charged forward with its whole body, and cashed straight into the Nomu! But the Nomu recovered quickly and grabbed the Pokemon by its horn, and before Rhydon could retaliate with a Horn Drill, the Nomu flung the Pokemon clear across the area! Straight into the air where it crashed against the glass dome above! The Pokemon fell to the earth below, but before it could crash down, Gar quickly returned the pokemon safely to its Pokeball.
"Staraptor, use Close Combat!" Gar cried out! The emo bird flew behind the monster and began to attack it with its wings, beak, and talons! The Nomu swiveled around and fought against the bird, matching their speeds and striking force! The fight went on until it looked like Numo was starting to gain the upper hand.
So Gar switched gears and commanded, "Use Steel Wing!" Staraptor broke off the fisticuff fight and turned its wings into a steel-like surface, ready to slam the Nomu with them! But the Nomu was quick and grabbed the bird's wings before it could strike! The Nomu then used its other hand to punch the bird and sent it flying away! Gar gasped at seeing the bird getting hit but went calm as he saw Staraptor pick itself up, shake itself down, and then fly back into the air.
Gar had to try something else. Hitting hard and fast can only do so much, and now he was down to just five Pokemon! Before he could continue to think, Nomu made a B-line for him, and Gar had to react fast enough for him and Dragapult to escape! Gar did another handstand on Dragapult's head and told the Pokemon to rise as quickly as it could. As it did, the Nomu launched itself from the ground and tried to grab the ghost dragon, but like last time it only fazed straight through. Gar clicked his tongue in aggregation. Now the Nomu wasn't even looking at the Pokemon like a priority threat. Now it was trying to go after him! He had to think of something! Anything!
He needed to be stronger; he needed to be bigger. He needed to be.
"Buzzt. Did someone call for music? Buzzt.", Rotom broke Gar's panicked train of thought while playing some music.
Gar pinched the bridge of his nose and stated, "Rotom get back in my pocket. You're still not well. And turn off that music, it-."
Gar stopped mid-sentence as he took a moment to hear the music Rotom was playing.
(Pokémon Sword & Shield OST - Gym Leader Battle)
Gar's face dropped in shock as something came across his mind. Turning to the Pokemon, he quickly followed up his previous sentence saying, "Just gave me an idea! Thanks, Rotom, you're the best! And it helps with the ambiance."
"Two scoops please! Buzzt.", Rotom blabbered out as Gar shoved him into his pocket.
Gar then switched the Mega Bracelet to another kind of wristband with red and blue edges, a red stone in the center shaped like an x, and a black underside piece shaped like a hurricane. He wore the white band with the stone facing on the top and the black piece under his wrist. He then took out one of the Pokeballs and commanded Dragapult to get close to the other Pokemon.
The Dragon flew towards the remaining Pokemon, pointing the ball at the group; he shouted, "Machamp! Are you ready to end this!"
The Pokemon had just gotten up from the ground, looked up, saw its Pokeball and what Gar was wearing. The Pokemon cried while standing up and flexing its muscles! Gar smiled at this and returned Machamp to its Pokeball.
"What is he doing now?", Tomura huffed while scratching his neck.
"Something that's not good for us.", Kurogiri stood at Tomura's defense.
Gar then told Dragapult to fly up high. As they ascended, the band around Gar's arm began to glow with red energy. The energy pooled out of the band and into the Pokeball. Then the round device expanded to over twice its size and glowed different shades of bright to dark red! Gar then threw the huge ball into the air with both hands and when it popped open, out came Machamp covered in darkness.
Suddenly the Pokémon began to expand and grow within the first moment of leaving the ball! Machamp kept growing until it was nearly touching the top of the dome! It stopped growing, and its feet crashed against the ground causing the whole area to vibrate. Machamp tucked its arms in, then flexed them outwards while giving off a much louder and deeper cry as red misty energy swirled around its body like a twister!
Now Machamp looked far different than before. It had three swirling red clouds around its waist, its belt became more detailed, its black markings appeared as leggings instead of a speedo, its head became smaller, the three crests were closer together, its eyes were yellow, and its forearms were even more muscular and had yellow-orange markings like they were on fire!
The two villains looked on in utter shock at what they were seeing in front of them! For the first time in their lives, the two of them knew exactly how it felt to be an ant near a human, and it was terrifying! They gawked with mouths wide open, completely unable to even produce any viable words while the giant Pokemon stared down at them.
"WHAT THE HELL!", Tomura finally managed to scream out!
"How in the-?", Kurogiri cut off his sentence mid-thought.
"Gentleman!" Gar announced to the villains. "A power hailing from my dimension, I give you, Dynamaxing with Gigantamax Machamp!" he exclaimed like an announcer as the music took a drastic dip with the sounds of a cheering crowd!
"Now it's giant?! How the hell are we gonna kill that?!", Tomura screamed in frustration and anger!
"You're not.", Gar answered as Dragapult flew near Machamp's side, towards its torso.
Gar then threw out his arm and shouted, "Okay, Machamp, let's finish him off good! Use MAX KNUCKLE!"
Machamp then pulled its massive arms back and made several striking movements that did nothing. Tomura looked confused at this until he looked up and saw several huge fists, each one, the size of a small building, rain down and crash right onto the Nomu with a huge explosion!
Once the dust settles, the Nomu pulls itself from the creator, albeit with more than a few bruises, bleeding injuries, and new indents in its body showing its metal skeleton had broken in some places.
Gar snapped his fingers in irritation, seeing as his one-shot attack plan failed. But even so, Max Knuckle still did a decent amount of hurt on the monster. Two more, which was the limit, should do the trick.
Again Gar commanded, "Max Knuckle again!"
"Don't just stand there and take the attack! Move you dumb monster!", Tomura shouted at Nomu!
When the rainfall of fists fell from the sky again, the Nomu didn't stand around like a sitting Ducklet and dodged the attacks one by one with amazing speed! It didn't stop moving till the onslaught was over. This made Gar flash an expression of worry! If they couldn't land this next move, Machamp would return to its previous form, and they wouldn't have another shot like this. The Nomu was already starting to heal away the damage, and if they couldn't keep up the heat, then they'd have to start all over again! And now that it was on dodge command, hitting it would be problematic if it could sit still long enough!
Gar circles around the battle sight, trying to think of a fast strategy to halt the Nomu. He'd have to sacrifice one of his Pokemon to stun it, but that also meant getting in the line of fire. So what was he to do?
As he circled, trying to think of his next move, his thoughts were interrupted by a bird Pokémon cry. He looked to his side and saw Staraptor flying close by him and Dragapult. The bird Pokémon was chirping up a storm and motioning over to Nomu.
Gar immediately knew what the Pokemon was trying to say and refused, stating, "No Staraptor, you're too hurt to attack with another Brave Bird. You need to heal up with Roost."
Staraptor only stared back at Gar with a fiery, determined look in its sharp eyes! Pokemon and trainer looked at one another for several long moments as if communicating with their intense glares. Gar immediately knew what Staraptor was trying to say to him and his expression fell calm in understanding. None of his current Pokemon could hit the Nomu hard enough to stun it and get out of the way in time for Machamp to attack. Staraptor was the only chance. Even if he did heal up with Roost, attack, and still have enough HP after, he couldn't get out of the way quick enough. He'd have to take one for the team! And Gar could see the bird Pokemon was ready to do so.
"You're serious about this, aren't you?" he asked the bird. Staraptor gave a loud cry in an answer as Gar sighed in defeat. He closed his eyes, and in a low tone, he said, "You always were my wild card back in Sinnoh.", he then shot his eyes open and exclaimed, "Alright, let's do this!"
Before he could, he needed to think of a way to hit the Nomu even harder once it was stunning. Sure, Max Knuckle was strong as hell, but he missed the last attack and was hoping to hit the monster all three times. Now he wanted to hit it with the power and strength of two Max Knuckles simultaneously! But what could he possibly do to achieve that?
Just as he was thinking, Rotom came out of his pocket again, and as the music played from him, he began to sing a completely different song. "Buzzt. Row row row your Gogoat, up and down the stream!" he sang in a babble.
Gar pinched the bridge of his nose and said back to the phone, "That isn't even the song you're playing, Rotom. And its boat, not Go...Goat…" Gar trailed off while looking to the side and catching sight of the large half-sunken ship in the Flood Zone. "That's it.", he said in a low tone. He then turned to Machamp and exclaimed, "Machamp! Grab that boat in the lake!"
Machamp nodded and stomped its way towards the Flood Zone, clearing several thousands of yards in just seconds! Gar then turned to Staraptor and commanded, "Staraptor, use Brave Bird!"
Staraptor gave a loud cry and rose into the air before skyrocketing down at top speed while blue energy emanated from its body until it turned red the faster it went! The bird aimed straight for Nomu, who was entirely focused on dodging Machamp's attacks, and before Tomura could commend it for evading Staraptor, the bird crashed right into the creature's head! It hit the Nomu so hard that its neck bent in a weird position and made an audible crack noise, meaning its neck broke! Staraptor fell to the floor, fainted with swirls in its eyes from the recoil. The monster fell on the ground with a thud while landing on its already awkward neck! Gar returned the bird Pokemon safely to its Pokeball before setting the second part of his plan in action.
"Nice job, buddy. You are my special ace. Get some rest. You deserve it.", he spoke to the ball.
While this was happening, Machamp had picked up the large ship from the water and carried it back to the Central Area in only two of its four arms. The Pokemon then held the ship over its head, making a gesture of throwing it down! The villains looked shocked by this action and stood frozen between the giant Pokemon and the giant ship over their heads!
Tomura, whose expression is between anger and panic, pointed an accusing finger while yelling at Gar with a shaky voice and clicking knees, "Y-You w-wouldn't d-dare!"
Gar closed his eyes while holding his hand to his left breast and replied in a soft yet low tone, "You hurt me, you hurt Shota, you hurt my friends, and you hurt my Pokemon.", his eyes then shot open with anger as he screamed, "I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU!" Gar snapped his finger, and Machamp began to throw the boat down on them! "Max Thousand Pound Drop!" Gar shouted!
Machamp roars and throws down the ship with all its might! The boat soared down to the ground like a dropped weight as the Nomu started to get up as its broken neck began to heal, and the Villains stood in disbelief of the sight!
Tomura was the only one to act and scream in terror, "KUROGIRI!"
The mist man snapped out of his trance and grabbed the hand man while warping away in a quick portal! The ship crashed to the earth just as the two villains vanished and landed with a large metallic boom! A dust cloud and shock wave created was so big that it nearly tipped over Tyranaitar, almost sent Gar off Dragapult, and almost knocked Articuno out of the air! The shock was so strong that it made the entire facility shake, nearly causing the glass dome to break!
When the shaking stopped and the dust finally settled, the villain duo reappeared once more near the extremely damaged ship with flabbergasted expressions anyone could ever make! The other pokemon shook off the dust covering their bodies while Gar climbed back on top of Dragapult after just barely grabbing hold of his tail after nearly falling off. Machamp roared once more in victory and immediately glowed while shrinking back down in seconds! Machamp now looked as it did before but now had an air of extreme exhaustion on its body and face.
Gar looked on at the wrecked ship in front of them and waited for the results of his plan. He hoped that this would be the one thing that would put an end to the nearly unstoppable monster! If that was the case, he could still use his remaining Pokemon to take the villains down with relative ease. Unfortunately, fate had other plans in mind, and after a few seconds, a very loud crashing and clunking noise could be heard from the ship's inside! After a few more seconds the ship's keel was busted open by a large black fist! Gar squealed at this sudden sight as the Nomu pulled the keel open like tin foil, then pulled its body out into the open! Before Gar could panic at the situation, he took another look at the creature and saw its state of being.
Nomu looked terrible! Its healing neck looked even worse than before as it bent so far off to the side it nearly looked like its head was doing a 180! Its body was so contorted, bruised, bleeding, and banged up that the only part of its body that looked normal was the arm that broke through the keel and one okay-looking leg. Other than that, the monster looked like it was being held up by spit and a prayer.
Gar knew it was almost done! Now he just had to finish it off for good with his remaining Pokemon! And said Pokemon also knew this, especially Machamp, who dashed towards the exiting Nomu and began to pummel it with Close Combat! After Close Combat ended, the humanoid Pokemon grabbed the Nomu's head with two of its arms and used the remaining two to hit it with Mach Punch repeatedly! However, this also caused its bent neck to straighten out again.
While this happened, Nomu's limbs were starting to heal back up again, enough for it to hold its weight on its two legs. When the feeling returned to its limbs, the creature backhanded Machamp and sent it back, losing its grip, in one swing! Machamp rolled across the ground but got back up after shaking itself off. Machamp then tried to engage the monster again. By now, its exhaustion and injury got the better of it, and the Pokemon fell to one knee with one painful eye closed as it breathed raggedly!
Gar saw its injured Pokemon and commanded Dragapult to fly in between the Pokemon. The dragon obeyed and flew towards the ground while blocking off the Pokemons path. Machamp looked at its trainer inquisitive as he stared back with a stern and serious expression.
"You're not fighting any further, Machamp!", the tone of his voice said there was no room for arguing.
Machamp tried to show that it was alright by immediately standing up, but vertigo took over, and the Pokemon fell back onto its knee.
Gar shook his head and replied, "I'm not making you push yourself any further. You're taking a rest, and that's final! Now return.", Gar stated while returning the Pokemon to its ball.
Gar clipped the ball back to his belt and turned back to the monster at hand. He knew now he needed all hands on deck for this, so he called all his Pokemon towards him and hopped off Dragapult. Once all his Pokemon were at his sides, he looked back over to Nomu and knew he had to use his special ace.
He looked over to the large blue bird with a long tail and an aura so cold it soothed the burn on his back. "Alright, Articuno, you're up!" he said to the legendary bird of ice.
Articuno screeched and flew toward the Nomu, ready to take it on! Gar shot out his arm and exclaimed, "Now use Ice Beam!"
The bird Pokemon then shot a beam of ice from its mouth while encircling the monster! The ice slowly grew on its body, restraining it further and further. Eventually, the monster broke free from the ice and went on the attack, jumping from its spot right at the Pokemon!
"Dodge!, Gar commanded as the legend gracefully and serenity moved out of the way while leaving a trail of glittering ice particles!
The Nomu landed and immediately tried to make another leap at the Pokemon! Gar told the bird to dodge, and Articuno kept moving out of the way each time! This eventually turned into a full game of cat and mouse with the Nomu trying to lunge and take a swipe at the Pokemon, while Articuno looked on passively and bored as it out says every attack like it was nothing! The Nomu even tried to throw a rock at the Pokemon, but the bird only swept the boulder aside like a pebble! The boulder even froze solid once it touched the birds' wings and then shattered once it hit the ground!
The Nomu tried to take another leaping dive at the Pokemon but was stopped when Gar commanded, "Grab the Nomu with your tail!"
Articuno obeyed and flew in a barrel roll style spin as its long tail wrapped around Nomu's head, down to its body and legs! Once the Nomu is securely wrapped up, the Pokemon begins to spin the beast around and around in the air!
"Throw the monster sky high! Gar exclaimed!
The bird threw the Nomu straight up into the sky, where it rag-dolled around helplessly! Articuno then caught up with the ascending Nomu and spread its wings out like a shimmering god, ready for its next command, which Gar gave out just as quickly.
"Use Hurricane!", the Pokemon then flapped its wings hard, so hard that the wind generated felt like it was coming straight from a Hurricane!
The Nomu plummeted from the sky and crashed straight to the earth with another miniature Boom! The Pokemon flew down near the creator, and just before it could fly off in disinterest, Nomu's hand flew out of the dust, grabbing the bird! And it did. The Numo managed to surprise the Pokemon good enough to grab one of its wings! Which was the wrong thing to grab.
The Nomu's arm quickly began to ice over and even travel up its shoulder, down its chest, and around its head! The Pokemon wretched its wing free and ended up shattering the Nomu's arm and most of its shoulder along with it! The Nomu then tried to punch the bird with its other arm, but Articuno halted the punch with one of its feet, canceling the attack with ease! The bird then spun into the air, creating distance between them, and hovered near Gar.
Tomura looked at the bird in shock at what it just did and exclaimed, "Impossible! I can sorta believe why your other pets survived an attack from my Nomu, but how can that weak bird move and match strength on equal grounds!"
Gar gave a snide smile as he replied triumphantly, "That is the power of a true Legendary Pokemon! Articuno isn't just an Ice-type. It's the embodiment of that element!"
Tomura ground his teeth and shouted, "Nomu, kill that bird by any means! Sacrifice your body if you must!"
The Nomu did as it was told and blindly went after the Pokemon in a fury! It ran across the ground on all fours and leaped into the air again, reading a punch at the bird's smug-looking face! Gar fully anticipated this and quickly commanded, "Dragon Dart!"
Tomura recognized that command and tried to open his mouth to give another command! But it was far too late, even if he did manage to say something; the Nomu was already mid-air and was then bombarded by two Dreepy being shot out at Mach speed! The Nomu flew over to the side, and Gar gave another quick command.
"Articuno, use Ice Beam!", the legendary bird shot another beam of ice from its mouth and anchored the Nomu to the spot it landed! "Now, Hurricane!" Gar commanded as the bird flapped its wings hard enough to break the Nomu free from the ground, with the ice still covering it, and sent it skyward!
The Nomu spun around wildly in a funnel!
"Now, use Blizzard!" Gar shouted as the bird screeched and released a stream of frigid air from its wings, turning the hurricane into an ice storm, causing the Nomu to become a frozen block!
When the Blizzard and Hurricane subsided, the frozen Nomu fell to the earth again and shattered into a hundred pieces! While also conveniently falling into the same hole it dropped in before! The teen and the bird waited for a moment to see if the Nomu had actually broken out or just shattered into icy fragments. Both Pokemon inched closer with caution and tried to look into the hole. Nothing but unsettled dust and ice chunks were lying around. This made Gar and his two pokemon relax at the thought of the monster finally being taken down.
But the Nomu showed another surprise, pulling yet another fast one and grabbing Dragapult by its tail! It then used it as a weapon against Articuno! The legendary bird tried to gain distance, but the Nomu was forceful and persistent as it used the new range from Dragapult's 9 foot body and swung it at the bird's head, causing it to fall to the ground! Then, Nomu stood on the bird's body with one foot and used Dragapult's body like a flail against the downed bird! Neither one can fight back.
Gar knew where this was going, and knew his Pokemon were already defeated, so he took out their Pokeballs and returned them safely before Nomu could harm them further! The moment the two Pokemon were converted to energy and out of sight, did the Nomu switch its gears and make a mad dash for Gar! It managed to pass Tyranaitar and out speed Mimikyu before either of them could react properly! Gar gasped and froze up at the incoming monster and couldn't even bring himself to cover his face in defense as the creature rocketed towards him!
Just before the monster could land a killing blow to the older teen, a Pokeball jumped from his belt and opened up in a blue beam of light! The light was bright enough to make the Nomu flinch for a moment, which was enough for the Pokemon who burst out to counter the punch! When the light subsided, Machamp was standing between Gar and the Nomu with one of its four arms holding back the Nomu's punch with its own!
"Machamp!" Gar exclaimed in surprise!
Machamp looked over its shoulder and gave a reassuring smile with a thumbs up. It looked back at Nomu with an angry expression, and just in time, as Nomu was about to attack with its other arm!
"Close Combat!" Gar shouted quickly!
Machamp then punched the Nomu in its face and went into a full-fledged assault that the Nomu matched in both power and speed! Fists flew at speeds that the eye couldn't see, only the impact they made! Both monster and pokemon received and exchanged blows, but not backing down an inch from each other! The fighting went on for only a few minutes, yet it felt like hours!
Eventually, they both broke away from each other, and Gar took the opportunity to give a new command. "MACH PUNCH!" Gar shouted while throwing a fist!
Machamp charged a powerful punch with two hands, and Nomu flung a punch with equal power to the weakened Pokemon! The two creatures hit each other with equal power in each of their faces! The blows on both sides were so powerful that it sent both of them flying back! The Nomu flew back and rolled around like an out-of-control ball while coming to a sloppy stop on the ground. At the same time, Machamp dug its feet into the ground but still was sent skidding back from the blow! Gar was smashed into Machamp's body as it flew, even breaking his nose on its muscular back in the process! Machamp pulled through and stopped itself in place. It flexed its muscles and gave a war cry before falling back and fainting on the ground!
Gar panicked for a moment and caught the Pokémons head before it could fall all the way, and cradling the Pokemon. He sighed while pulling the Pokeball and saying, "You did awesome, Machamp. Thanks for the save. Take a good rest."
The Pokemon went back into its ball while Tyranaitar and Mimikyu went over to his sides in defense. Gar stood up on shaky legs with a bloody face as he stared down the Nomu with his remaining two Pokemon, unsure if he could even pull this off. The Nomu might be severely injured, but Gar knew it would take more than one pseudo legendary and a Ghost/Fairy type to take this thing down for good! He was hoping for Articuno to finish it off, but now he was hanging onto strings! What else could he possibly do?! He'd have to one-hit KO it. Tyranaitar may be tough, but even some of his stronger Pokemon couldn't stand up to more than a few well-placed hits by Nomu and Mimikyu….wait a minute.
Mimikyu. THAT'S IT!
Gar came up with a quick plan while looking at his tiny toy Pokemon, and looking at Tyranaitar, exclaimed, "Tyranaitar, keep Nomu busy!"
Tyranaitar roared and then shot a Hyper Beam right at the Nomu! Before the dust could settle, Tyranaitar charged forward and slammed into Nomu out of the dust cloud! As the two creatures fought, Gar put away his Dynamix Band and put on a different band. It was black with a triangular tip and rounded end. It had many small engravings on it that also looked like triangles. He clamped the band around his wrist and took out a small, unusual crystal-colored pale yellow, shaped like a diamond with two smaller diamonds at each end, and an engraving that looked like Mimikyu's face, sort of.
Gar looks at the tiny Pokemon and says, "Mimikyu, get ready to synchronize!"
Mimikyu looked behind him and saw what Gar was wearing and immediately felt the chills of excitement run up its whole body! Its eyes twinkled, and it readied itself with Gar in a synchronized posture and movement.
Gar then reached the floor, and after giving off a deep breath, he exhaled in a loud war shout!
"What's he doing now?", Kurogiri asked.
"Finally lost his mind?", Tomura theorized, just as confused.
Gar then slowly rose with his arms and head ascending to the sky while still shouting his war cry! His screaming suddenly stopped as quickly as it came, and his two hands then formed a heart where he brought them to his eye level and said in the cutest voice and expression possible, "UwU."
"Did-did he just say-?", Tomura stammered out with a weird expression.
"I'd like to say no, but I can't.", Kurogiri answered while also making a weird expression.
Even the very atmosphere and appearance changed around Gar as he went full sappy baby voice and talked! It was enough to make someone feel nauseous. In addition, Mimikyu was copying the older teen in his gestures and mannerisms.
"I wuv you so so so so so much! UwU. You're my sweetest, most wonderful, most waivable, snuggly cuppy supply cake ever!" Gar said in the sappest, sugary sweet, baby voice anyone could manage while doing a bunch of cuties movements and poses.
Tomura grabbed his mouth and stated, "I think I'm gonna be sick."
Kurogiri said nothing, but he too looked like he was about to vomit, albeit keeping his composure much better. Even Tyranaitar was starting to lose footing against the Nomu from hearing the overly cute words assaulting his eyes holes and causing his stomach to twist.
Gar then hugged himself with the sappiest squeal imaginable, like an excited child, and then said, "I just wanna hold you, and love you, and squeeze you, 24/7 my most cutest, sweetest, baby way ever!"
Tomura immediately held back vomit coming up his throat and just managed to squeak out before tossing his cookies, "Yep! I'm physically sick now! Gonna barf!", he then bent over and emptied what was left in his stomach!
Gar then spun around all childishly and, while forming another heart with his hands, stated in a much different tone, "UwU, I wuv you so much that I want to cuddle you...TO DEATH!"
"Wait, what was that?", Tomura shot up his head with vomit at the sides of his mouth.
At this point, Tomura finally realized that strange energy was flowing out of Gar and into Mimikyu, making the Pokemon glow a strange hue.
Gar then pushed the heart out towards Mimikyu, who was also copping the gesture, and exclaimed in a normal voice, "Let's Snuggle Forever!"
Energy pooled out of Gar and followed directly into Mimikyu, who glowed with said energy, like a light source, surrounding it like a vortex. Mimikyu's eyes twinkled again, and the small Pokemon ran towards the monster at an alarming speed that was even faster than the last time! Tyranaitar immediately knew what was coming and booked as quickly as he could muster! The Nomu looked towards the light-speed moving Mimikyu and readied to counter-attack it! But the small Pokemon jumped into the air, far above the Nomu, and shot out its long thin arms around the Numos head! The Pokemon then pulled the underside of its disguise down on the Numo head! Red eyes glowed under the darkness inside, staring right through the monster's soul as its rag body stretched out and covered the whole creature.
It was dead quiet as the Nomu was engrossed by the small Pokemon, but then, suddenly a noise emerged from under the stretch out rag that went something like this, "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
The sound of Nomu's horrified screams emitted from inside Mimikyu's body as the Pokémon's body shook violently from Nomu attempting to escape! But Mimikyu was determined not to let go! Black tentacles emerged from under the long rag and anchored it to the ground keeping the Nomu from breaking out! The screams of horror kept going on for several seconds while the Pokemon shook back and forth! Then the screaming stopped.
It was a dead quiet from all around the field. Everyone stared at the giant size Pokemon. Then Mimikyu unanchored itself from the ground and slowly casket its way off its prisoner. When the rag shrunk back down to normal size, the Nomu was revealed, but in much different-looking light. Instead of a large, black, muscular creature looming overall, now laid a small, boney, pale white husk of a creature. Laying on the ground in a fetal position, clutching its skinny body in a hug, shaking like a leaf, with its eyes rolled back in its head with tears streaming out of them. The Numo was almost nothing.
But Gar knew, even if this thing would die eventually or lived to be permanently scarred by what it saw, it would still be able to heal and fight. Now that it was in the most vulnerable state it's been thus far; he knew he had to finish it off here and now. So without looking away from the monster, he gave one last command to Mimikyu, saying, "Use Shadow Claw."
Mimikyu obeyed, and in one swift motion, it swung its small, fast arm across the Nomu and decapitated it in one slice! The head flew from the body and managed to hobble and bounce over to the feet of the very shocked Tomura! The young man picked up in both hands, giving a silent expression of utter shock as he looked between the head and the older teen to make sure this was real! When he finally realized it was real, he gripped the head with all his fingers and caused it to decay into ash! He looked at the teen with hate in his eyes and began to throw a tantrum, stamping his feet against the floor, going red in the face, and foaming at the mouth while making incomprehensible noises!
"No no no no no no no no! Why, why, why, why why, why, why, why?! This can't happen! This shouldn't happen! My Nomu was a hero killer! The anti-All Might! This was supposed to work! This was supposed to be my day! I wanted to kill All Might! Me me me me me me me me me me!" he screamed like a child!
His eyes then shot towards the older teen, and pointing an accusing finger; he shouted, "YOU! You-you-you-you cheated, cheater! Hacks! I call them hacks!"
Gar spit the blood dripping from his nose and said with a serious expression and tone of voice, "I don't cheat. I have skills, something you lack. If you had even an ounce of observation skills, you'd know Mimikyu hides its body under a rag for a reason. One look under there, and an early grave is imminent."
Tomura ground his teeth and tightened his hands into fists so hard that they began to bleed! "It doesn't matter! Even if I can't kill All Might, I'm gonna kill you once and for all!" he screamed at him.
Tyranaitar came to Gar's side while growling and replied, "Then do it, coward."
Tomura motioned to run in to attack, but Gar quickly reacted, exclaiming, "Tyranaitar, use Hyper Beam!"
The large dinosaur lizard Pokemon shot the pale energy beam from its mouth right at the oncoming villain! Tomura didn't even have time to move out of the way as his body was moved so far forward he couldn't turn! Just before the attack hit, Kurogiri made a portal and redirected the attack behind them! The mist man made a large wall of himself between the angry Pokemon and the floored hand villain while offering to make a retreat.
Gar ground his teeth in frustration! If neither Normal, Ghost, or even Fairy-type moves could affect this guy, then what could? He just couldn't let them escape! But he was in no position to do so!
Before the two villains could make their escape, two very loud and precise Bang noises reverberated off the glass dome as Tomura fell to the floor with two gunshot wounds in his legs! The two villains looked off to the side where the upper level was on the cliffside and saw several pro heroes from UA standing atop the cliffside, looking down at the scene below!
"So sorry we're late to the party! We would have come sooner if our invitation was sent on time, but it looks like we've arrived just in time for the climax!", All Might bellowed while ripping off his overcoat and tie.
"FUCK!", Tomura hissed!
"Thank Arceus!" Gar exclaimed in relief!
Snipe tried to take another shot at the villains, but Kurogiri quickly spread himself across Tomura in a defensive fort, causing the bullets to pass through the other end.
"Perhaps we should make a hasty retreat, young sir.", Kurogiri offered.
Tomura growled but did not object.
As Kurogiri expanded before disappearing, Gar changed his stance and exclaimed, "I won't let you get away! Tyranaitar, Mimikyu, use Dark Pulse!"
The Pokemon obeyed and shot out encircling beams of Darkness from their mouths at the mist wall! However, the attacks never passed through the portal and instead hit like any physical attack! Kurogiri groaned in pain as his body dissipated and fluctuated! Gar saw this and knew he had them!
So he exclaimed another command, "Keep using Dark Pulse!"
The two Pokemon did as they were told and kept bombarding the mist wall with constant beams of dark energy! Kurogiri kept groaning in pain until it turned into full-fledged screams of agony, which kept him from keeping his protective barrier up and disappearing with Tomura in tow!
A large hole occasionally appeared in the wall, and Gar was highly tempted to try and use another attack through the hole, but the gaps would disappear every time. Though he did notice that with every attack he took, he wouldn't be able to hold up his wall for a longer period, meaning Gar only needed to wait.
Though this time around, Gar had help and help from the other heroes! As each of them with ranged quirks tried to attack Tomura from within the wall! But Kurogiri kept blocking and redirecting each attack! This went on long enough for All Might to change up a good punch and then shouted.
"DETROIT SMASH!" he bellowed as a huge air current was created from his blow and caused the mist man to dissipate, leaving Tomura completely vulnerable!
The heroes tried to close in on him quickly, but Gar was giving commands even quicker as he shouted to Tyranaitar, "Hyper Beam!"
Tyranaitar shot out the energy beam again, and it made a straight line for the shocked and frozen villain still sitting helplessly on the ground! Even if he did look beat, Gar knew what kind of power he was packing! And he wasn't going to allow him to harm another person! He was going to keep his word and take him to the big house in a stretcher! Just as the beam was mere inches from collision, Kurogiri manifested in a small swirl around Tomura and pulled him away from the attack! The Hyper Beam missed its target and hit the cliffside wall, causing it to explode! The two villains were gone within a moment, nowhere to be seen, only a bit of lingering black mist.
Gar was instantly shocked by their sudden disappearing act until it turned to anger and frustration. Kicking a rock and violently rubbing his broken nose hard enough for it to bleed even harder from the pressure, he ground his teeth and cursed under his breath while pulling at his ruined hoodie!
"Arceus, dammit! ARCEUS DAMMIT! I almost had him! He was right there, and then he just disappeared into thin air! I wanted to stop that freak here and now! I barely managed to put down his monster, and I couldn't even finish the job with him! Now he'll just come back like all of them! DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT", Gar screamed in frustration until he finally wore himself out!
While the heroes assess the situation, Snipe went over to comfort the angry crying teen looking at the ground with hunched shoulders and a look of defeat on his face.
The cowboy hero stood to his side. Unsure of how to break the ice, he said, "Ya know, not every hero catches the villain. Sometimes no matter how hard we try to take 'em down and put 'em away, sometimes they just get away. That's just part of life, ya know.", Snipe didn't think his message was resonating since Gar stood in the same spot, not crying, but unmoving. He sighed and continued saying, "Ya know, all things considered, you did an amazing job today. No experience with fighting villains from our world, and you handled it far better than expected. No casualties, mild property, and collateral damage subdued several of his lackeys and found a weakness in his portal guy.
On top of that, you managed to kill….whatever that thing is. Not sure what it is, but I can tell it puts up one hell of a fight for ya." still, Gar didn't move or speak, just stood there. Snipe rubbed the back of his dreads and tried to finish off strong, saying, "Look, what I'm trying to say is you did real good today, partner. Better than good. So don't beat yourself up on not catching the horns after defeating his monster. We'll get 'em next time he pokes his mug out of the brush, and we'll catch 'em. That I can promise."
Snipe went to give a reassuring pat on the teen's shoulder, but before his hand could even touch his body, Gar suddenly gave a light gasp and fell over. Before he fell completely, Tyranitar's, surprisingly, managed to catch him in his arms quickly! Snipe nearly froze up in shock before he quickly snapped himself back and called out to the other heroes! A few heroes came over but were pushed aside by Midnight, who took off her glasses and pressed two fingers to the older teen's neck.
She sighed in relief and said, "It's okay, you guys, he's just passed out. But my god, I can't believe he is still standing! Guess the adrenaline rush finally subsided. But damn, those injuries look nasty! That burn on his back is so huge, and his chest! Dear god! How long has he been bleeding from there!?"
She looked at Snipe and stated, "He needs medical attention, stat!"
Snipe nodded and began to run out of the USJ to get the paramedic. Midnight looked up to Tyranaitar and opened her mouth to give the pokemon a command, but her face quickly deflated once she realized she didn't know how to address the Pokemon. Instead, she opted to say, "Okay, you, dragon dinosaur thing. Gar-kun needs medical treatment right now! Follow Snipe, the guy in the cowboy getup, outside the USJ with Gar!"
Tyranaitar seemed to understand and followed the cowboy hero as its heavy footsteps thundered across the hard ground like a mini earthquake. At the same time, little Mimikyu looked on in worry, with its false head slumping down, as it followed after Tyranaitar holding Gar while trying to reach out to hold his limp hand. But something stopped Mimikyu's following.
The little Pokemon turned to whatever it sensed and saw some of the purple mist residues float up and take the form of a small purple portal no bigger than a dinner plate, with one long yellow eye peering out at the scene. Mimikyu scuttled over to the eye, and when the eye noticed the Pokemon, it stared directly at it.
Mimikyu tilted its false head back and forth a bit before saying to the mist, "Mi Mi Curse You.", Mimikyu's eyes glittered with malicious intent as it mumbled out these words.
The mist immediately vanished after hearing this, and once gone, Mimikyu went back to follow his trainer to paramedics.
