Story Notes:
Disclaimer: I do not own pokemon
Round 1 Part 1
Vecransyh wakes up to Rotom's annoying screeching noise as he had previously set his alarm clock to wake him up in time for his battle. Vecransyh hits the alarm clock making Rotom stop buzzing and he takes out a pokeball returning him to it. After waking Xylina and Yakira they all head out of the hotel each of the Pokemon carrying their respective child standing on either side of Vecransyh. It doesn't take him long to reach the stadium and Xylina leaves Aticus in the care of Yakira before Vecransyh chooses his three Pokemon, one being her, and walks out into the bright sunlight of the stadium. Vecransyh stretches as he arrives in his trainer's square and looks across at his opponent who's standing at the ready with a pokeball in his hand. The boy in question wears a yellowish tan jacket with black lining the visible, lowered, hood and a long silver zipper runs down the length of the front. His pants are a normal color of jeans and he wears a red belt with his other two pokeballs attached. On his left hand is a black, fingerless, glove with red around the part on his wrist. The two trainers eye each other for a few moments before the boy speaks up,
"Nice Mismagius you've got there. Ghost Pokemon should be scarier though." Vecransyh and Xylina exchange glances before Vecransyh raises an eyebrow to his challenger,
"Who are you to judge?" The boy shrugs,
"I'm going to be a ghost gym leader so I need to know these things. The scarier the better I always say."
"Ghost Pokemon prefer tricks and pranks though." The boy laughs at Vecransyh's statement,
"Spoken like a true amateur ghost trainer. How about a little quiz? What's the strongest ghost type attack?" Vecransyh doesn't even think before he answers,
"Shadow Force."
"And what Pokemon uses it?"
"Giratina."
"How many ghost type Pokemon are there in total?"
"18."
"Wrong!! There're 19!" Vecransyh shakes his head,
"Umm... no, there's 18." The boy scowls,
"How many ghost types are legendaries?"
"1." The boy laughs hysterically,
"There's two!! Giratina and Darkrai!!" Vecransyh is silent for a moment blinking at the know-it-all trainer,
"Darkrai is a Dark type." The boy shifts his eyes for a moment before he takes out a small red square and presses a few buttons on it before he goes wide-eyed,
"You're right!!" Vecransyh rolls his eyes,
"Of course I'm right. I know everything about ghost types. Way more then you dude." The boy enlarges his pokeball as his eyes narrow,
"We'll see whose training method is better!!" The announcer's voice booms over the stadium as Vecransyh takes a black pokeball from his belt,
"WELCOME ALL TO THE THIRTEENTH BATTLE OF THE SINNOH POKEMON LEAGUE TOURNAMENT!!! THIS BATTLE IS BETWEEN... no last names on either person... whatever, LEN AND VECRANSYH!!!!!" The crowd roars in applause when Vecransyh's name is said and Vec looks around at all the screaming people most of which are screaming his name and he rolls his eyes looking at Xylina,
"I wonder how long it'll be till people forget about me mortally wounding myself." Xylina shrugs with a happy giggle,
"Never."
"WITHOUT FURTHER ADO LET THE BATTLE BEGIN!!!" Len smirks as he throws his pokeball releasing a Banette onto the field but instead of a happy face its expression is cold and well, scary. Vecransyh's eye twitches at the sight of the Pokemon and he shakes his head looking down,
"Time to teach this guy a lesson about ghosts." Vecransyh enlarges the black pokeball in his hand and Xylina eyes it curiously,
"What's that?" Vecransyh looks at her with a confident smile,
"New guy." Vecransyh throws the pokeball and Sableye appears on the field, "Let's go Sableye!!" Sableye hops on one foot for a few seconds before jumping up and landing upside down on one hand. He turns his head around before grinning widely and jumps off his hand back to his feet, and the second his feet touch the ground he takes off in a full on sprint towards Banette. Banette tries to prepare for a full on attack, but Sableye ducks down, and slides underneath Banette's legs. He springs up behind it, and chops it in the back with his forearm. Banette takes the hit hard as it flies forward a few feet before landing on its face. Banette gets up with an angry look on its face as Sableye stands, slouched over, picking his nose. Banette closes its eyes and holds its hand out, forming a shadow ball. It then spins around fast and throws it at Sableye. Sableye, without even thinking, runs full speed at the shadow ball, and jumps above it. But as he passes the attack he reaches out and grabs the shadow ball in his own hands. He flips in the air, and throws it back at the unsuspecting ghost-type. Banette takes the hit to the face and is knocked out on impact followed by a large explosion. Len's expression is nothing but complete shock as he recalls his fainted Banette and he switches out for his second pokeball. Len releases a Male Mismagius to the field with the same expression as the Banette and Vecransyh turns to Xylina with a smile as Sableye disappears into his own ball, "You're up." Xylina nods and floats out onto the field before the two ghosts go into battle poses,
"May the best ghost win." The Mismagius narrows his eyes,
"I plan to." As the Mismagius rushes forward with a shadow ball in his grip Xylina simply floats there doing nothing until the ghost throws his arm forward and gets punched in the face hard by a vicious Sucker-punch. The Mismagius reels from the attack for a bit to long and takes a shadow ball followed by a second. Xylina suddenly hears a faint singing and tries to block it out but fails as she hears the perish song. She rushes forward determined to defeat the Mismagius before her timer runs out. Xylina finds the opposing Mismagius in the dense smoke a bit too late and is on the receiving end of a powerful shadow ball. She flies from the cloud of smoke and lands on her back before she rises up narrowing her eyes into the dispersing fog. She opens her mouth and a beam of energy forms that looks like it originates from her glowing amulet. The beam is released a moment later in a direct hit on the opposing Mismagius. Xylina smirks triumphantly before she's punched in the face by a Sucker-punch by Mismagius. She shakes off the blow and charges a shadow ball and throws it towards Mismagius. The two Pokemon suddenly freeze for a moment before they collapse as their perish song timers run out. Vecransyh takes Xylina's ball from his belt and she disappears into it and Vecransyh looks at the red and white sphere with a smile,
"You did great." Len returns his Mismagius and takes out his third pokeball,
"You're not going to beat me." Vecransyh raises an eyebrow,
"It's 2 to 1 and my Pokemon are a little bit stronger then yours. You got lucky that last round from the perish song." Len scowls and responds by sending out his Gengar. Vecransyh falls silent as he looks into the face of the Pokemon. The thing about this Gengar... it's not smiling. Vecransyh's eye twitches as his own Gengar comes out groaning at the sunlight with a big smile on his face regardless, "Tell me Len. How long did it take you to make your Gengar stop smiling?" Len chuckles,
"Had to make him scary no matter how long it took. Smiles just aren't scary." Vecransyh shakes his head,
"Then let this be a lesson to you. Gengar! No mercy!!" Gengar nods with his normal evil smile on his face and he rushes forward slamming a shadow ball into the opposing Gengar's face before he jumps back to avoid any counterattack and lunges forward using the ground as a springboard and he slashes his claws down the torso of the Gengar before sweeping his legs and slamming another shadow ball into him. Gengar repeats this for a number of minutes before his expression turns angry with frustration as he continues slashing and shadow balling his opponent,
"Why won't you go down?!?!" As Gengar stares down the non-smiling version of himself an eerie fog covers the field and Len's Gengar disappears from view with nothing but a faint laugh. Gengar closes his eyes letting his smile fade as he focuses on where the laughter is coming from and within a few seconds he lunges out to the side with a combined Shadow Claw cloaked in a Shadow Ball and Len's Gengar takes the full force of the attack sending him flying backwards from so much damage that he slams into the edge of the field at the stands. The fog fades away and Gengar folds his arms with a smirk as he looks across at Len, "He's got quite a bit of stamina but that's all he has. Crappy speed was his downfall because that attack he had looked pretty powerful." Len scowls as he Gengar returns to his ball and he puts the orb back on his belt as he folds his arms,
"I don't need a lecture from a non-scary ghost type." Gengar pauses before he moves to quickly that he's just a blur and within under a second he's eye level with Len looking into his eyes with pure, evil, bloodlust,
"I'm coming for you in your sleep tonight. You can run but I will find you. Know that you are no longer safe on this planet as I exist. Now run... run from death." Len goes blue in the face and he passes out falling to the ground with a thud. Gengar walks over to Vecransyh as he stretches his arms, "Well that was fun." Vec raises an eyebrow as he looks at the Pokemon,
"What did you say to him?" Gengar shrugs,
"I simply showed him that I'm just as scary as his so-called 'scary' Pokemon." Gengar and Vecransyh high-five and Vecransyh walks out of the stadium followed by Gengar at his side. The announcer speaks when Vecransyh leaves,
"AND SO ENDS THE THIRTEENTH BATTLE OF THE LEAGUE... CAN WE PLEASE GET THE MEDICAL TEAM TO GET A LOOK AT THE PASSED OUT TRAINER ON THE FIELD PLEASE? ANYWAY, THE NEXT BATTLE WILL TAKE PLACE IN ABOUT TEN MINUTES SO TAKE A BREAK BUT DON'T GO TO FAR POKEMON FANS!!"
Kazamaru walks onto the field into the blazing sun as the roar of the crowd fills his ears an hour and a half later. He cracks his neck followed by his knuckles as he arrives in his trainer square,
"So then... who am I..." Kazamaru raises his eyebrow as he looks across the field from himself to his opponent, "Oh." Jyro face palms as he catches sight of Kaza,
"Oh this is just great!! You rigged the pairings didn't you!!" Kazamaru chuckles as he brings a pokeball into his hand and presses the button enlarging the red and white ball,
"Nice to see you too Jyro. Same bet as last time?" Jyro scowls as he takes a pokeball from his own belt making the same action on the button,
"We'll see if you'll win this time kid!! I'm way stronger then I was last time we fought so if you want a chance then you'd better have trained as hard as I did!" The announcer's voice booms across the stadium as the two trainers glare at each other,
"WELCOME ALL TO THE TWENTY-THIRD BATTLE OF THE SINNOH POKEMON LEAGUE TOURNAMENT!!! THIS MATCH IS BETWEEN KAZAMARU AND JYRO BOTH OF WHICH FAILED TO WRITE THEIR LAST NAMES ON THE SIGN IN SHEETS WHICH DOESN'T REALLY MATTER SEEING AS HOW BOTH OF THEIR NAMES ARE SO COMPLETELY UNIGUE THAT NOONE IN THE WORLD COULD POSSIBLY HAVE THE SAME NAME!!! BUT I DIGRESS... LET THE BATTLE BEGIN!!!" Jyro's pokeball opens in a huge flash of light releasing a powerful purple dinosaur that roars powerfully before begin met with Kazamaru's Rhyperior as an opponent. Nidoking glares at his opponent and his eyes go wide as Rhyperior raises his arm making his palm face towards him and he fires a barrage of boulders from a small opening that fly towards him striking him in lightning fast succession. Rhyperior lowers his arm looking across at the horribly weakened Nidoking with little interest but Nidoking suddenly rushed forward lunging powerfully with his arms but his claws are suddenly interlocked with Rhyperior's who removes one of his hands from the purple dinosaur's to place it on his arm and with a grunt Rhyperior knocks Nidoking to the ground and begins swinging him around like he weighs nothing. After a few brief seconds Rhyperior throws Nidoking into the ground making the dinosaur roar in pain as he skids across the ground looking up as he comes to a stop only to see another Rock Blast attack. Jyro's eyes widen as Nidoking turns into a red silhouette returning to his ball and he reattaches the ball to his belt shaking his head in disbelief,
"What the hell was that?!" Kazamaru shrugs,
"Rhyperior."
"Well I knew that but that just wasn't fair!!"
"You're in the Pokemon league bro."
"Yeah but..."
"Are you giving up? You still have two more Pokemon."
"No!! I just wasn't expecting such a quick loss from Nidoking."
"So... next Pokemon please?" Jyro rolls his eyes as he takes a second pokeball from his belt and enlarges it,
"Fine then..." Muk rises from the second ball with what sounds like a roar as it slides towards Rhyperior only to take a punch to its face but being only a pile of slime it forms around Rhyperior's arm as the plated dinosaur tries to shake himself free. Kazamaru smirks as Rhyperior looks back at him,
"Hyper Beam." Rhyperior nods and turns back to the pile of slime forming a huge amount of energy in his mouth. He suddenly feels greatly weakened though as the poisonous body seeps through his plated skin. He shakes off the feeling and releases the energy obliterating the Muk attached to his arm freeing himself from the Pokemon's toxic grip and effectively defeating the pile of sludge. Muk reforms although unconscious and disappears into his pokeball and Jyro takes out his third,
"What kind of training did you go through to get this strong?!" Kazamaru chuckles with a big grin,
"Eight months of nonstop training will do that for ya!" Jyro sighs as he throws his final pokeball releasing a Toxicroak onto the field. The frog strikes a battle pose before he runs towards the poisoned Rhyperior dodging the powerful punch throws at him and Toxicroak leaps into the air bringing his fist down onto Rhyperior's head. Toxicroak leaps back landing in front of the behemoth and watches with a smirk as it falls forward but the smirk quickly fades and Toxicroak tries to run away before he is crushed by Rhyperior knocking him out on contact. Kazamaru gives Jyro a thumb's up as he grins, "And that's game!! So go get yourself cleaned up Mr. Poison!!" Jyro closes his eyes festering in his rage from his absolutely total defeat,
"I hate you so much." He then returns Toxicroak to his ball before he walks out of the arena hanging his head knowing that he now had to go take a shower washing away almost a year of his grease. The announcer's voice booms through the stadium as it erupts in applause,
"AND THE BATTLE IS OVER SHORTLY AFTER IT STARTS LEAVING KAZAMARU IN AN ALMOST TOTAL VICTORY..." The announcer stops as Rhyperior stands up and brushes off his shoulder looking fine, "MAKE THAT TOTAL VICTORY!!! THE NEXT BATTLE WILL TAKE PLACE IN TEN MINUTES SO DON'T GO TOO FAR!!"
Scarlet steps lightly across the field to her trainer's square as she hums a soft tune nearly two hours after Kazamaru had won his battle,
"First battle time, alright... let's do this..." she stops as she looks across the field at her opponent. The figure in question is a girl, roughly eleven or possibly twelve. She wears a green dress that goes down to her upper knees and she has very light purple around her pinkish-red eyes. Across her shoulder is a brown strap with a small pink bag sitting comfortably at her waist. When the girl's eyes meet the sight that is Scarlet the girl waves shyly as she takes a pokeball from her pocket. Scarlet waves back awkwardly, (Okay...? Not the most intimidating presence but you can never judge a person on appearances because that's how you lose.) The announcer's voice booms over the crowd in a happy tone,
"WELCOME ONE AND ALL TO THE THIRTY-FIFTH BATTLE OF THE SINNOH POKEMON LEAGUE TOURNAMENT!!!!!! THIS IS A BATTLE BETWEEN ONE SCARLET ALLISON AND ONE... I SEEM TO BE MISSING A LAST NAME BUT THE FIRST NAME OF THE OTHER TRAINER IS AVERY!!!!" The crowd bursts into applause and Scarlet takes a pokeball from her belt as she smiles confidently,
"Get ready girly!!"
"WITHOUT FURTHER ADO LET THE BATTLE BEGIN!!!" In two flashes of light Dane stands across from a ladybug that zips around randomly. The Ledian stops as it spots Dane and the two stare each other down for a few moments before Dane hits the bug type with a powerful blast of psychic energy. Avery throws her arm forward with a confident look on her face,
"Ledian! X-Scissor!!" Ledian rushes forward avoiding Dane's attacks as its many hands glow and form into shiny claws. Dane's eyes widen as he suddenly feels the full force of the attack rock his body as the Ledian's claws slash him in an X shape. Dane unleashes a Dark Pulse that sends Ledian flying backwards and Dane wobbles a bit as he clutches his chest a small amount of blood forming in his hand from the attack. The pink Alakazam glares at the bug and scowls when it smirks, "Ledian! One more X-Scissor should do it!!" Ledian rushes forward and Dane shakes his head before throwing the rest of his power into a final Dark Pulse that the Ledian simply barrels through before slashing him with the super effective attack leaving Dane unconscious and Ledian barely able to stand. Avery throws her arm up as she giggles, "Yay! Ledian you did it!!" Scarlet returns Dane to his ball and she brings a second ball into her hand,
(I need to get the upper hand if I'm going to beat this girl... hopefully she doesn't only have bug types or I'll have to use my... new acquisition.) Scarlet's shiny Grumpig rises from her ball in a brief shimmer of light and sparkles and she cracks her neck looking forward at the bug type with a grin,
"Thing can barely fly! This'll be over in a second." Grumpig sprints forward and catches a glimpse of the startled expression on the Pokemon's face before she Mega Punches it in the gut sending it flying backwards to the ground. Avery makes an irritated face as she returns Ledian and switches for her second Pokemon,
"You'll pay for that!!!" Grumpig waves her arms in a wave-like motion as she laughs,
"Ooh, I'm so scared!" As the second ball opens a Jynx appears and the ice-type says her name before Grumpig jumps away from it to avoid a blast of ice, "You'll have to be faster then that!!" Jynx unleashes a huge blizzard that cloaks the field in snow and Grumpig shakes herself of it before she smiles gripping her stomach, "Sorry girly but I've got Thick Fat." The gem on top of Grumpig's head starts to glow brightly before she fires a powerful beam of energy that hits home causing massive damage to Jynx. Grumpig takes another Blizzard attack and smirks as her gem glows again, "You're done." The second Power Gem attack leaves Jynx on the ground and she returns to her pokeball a moment later. Avery takes her third pokeball from her belt as Grumpig cracks her knuckles followed by her neck as she rolls her shoulders, "Whew! What a workout! I could do this all day!!" The their pokeball opens in a flash of light and suddenly Grumpig feels a huge sting of pain as her body is engulfed in a Dragon Pulse attack. Grumpig falls to the ground during the attack but picks herself up looking towards the assailant to find a male Altaria looking at her with a smirk,
"You look tired. Wanna take a break?" Grumpig scowls and responds by blasting the dragon/flying type with Power Gem but even though the attack did a high amount of damage Altaria easily finishes Grumpig with a few more Dragon Pulses. Scarlet returns Grumpig to her ball and takes out her final letting out a long breath,
"It's a long shot but he may be my only chance if I don't want to reveal my secret weapon just yet..." Gallade rises from his ball and his arm blades grow with a ringing, sword-like sound,
"Bring it birdie."
"Gallade! You know what to do!" Gallade nods back at Scarlet and goes into a battle stance,
"I understand what I must do." Altaria rushes forward in an attempted Aerial Ace but Gallade throws up his bladed elbows deflecting the attack and he stomps his foot making many rocks fly up in front of him and he swings his arm striking them all and sending them flying towards Altaria. The flying type takes the attack head on and falls to the ground as Gallade folds his arms, "Check mate." Avery lets out a sigh and returns Altaria before she walks forward and shakes hands with Gallade,
"It was a good battle." Gallade nods with a smile,
"Indeed it was. Your Pokemon are very powerful and if you keep raising them as you are they'll only get stronger." Gallade turns into a red silhouette of himself and Scarlet approaches the girl before she shakes her hand,
"Sorry about knocking you out in the first round." Avery shakes her head with a smile,
"I came here because I had a little time off from contests. No hard feelings Ms. Scarlet." The announcer's voice booms across the stadium from the loudspeakers,
"THAT WAS TRULY A FANTASTIC BATTLE AND SCARLET WILL BE MOVING ON TO ROUND TWO OF THE COMPETITION!!!! BATTLES WILL BE RESUMING TOMORROW MORNING SO GET SOME REST AND COME BACK FOR MORE GREAT BATTLES!!!"
"Nice Mismagius you've got there. Ghost Pokemon should be scarier though." Vecransyh and Xylina exchange glances before Vecransyh raises an eyebrow to his challenger,
"Who are you to judge?" The boy shrugs,
"I'm going to be a ghost gym leader so I need to know these things. The scarier the better I always say."
"Ghost Pokemon prefer tricks and pranks though." The boy laughs at Vecransyh's statement,
"Spoken like a true amateur ghost trainer. How about a little quiz? What's the strongest ghost type attack?" Vecransyh doesn't even think before he answers,
"Shadow Force."
"And what Pokemon uses it?"
"Giratina."
"How many ghost type Pokemon are there in total?"
"18."
"Wrong!! There're 19!" Vecransyh shakes his head,
"Umm... no, there's 18." The boy scowls,
"How many ghost types are legendaries?"
"1." The boy laughs hysterically,
"There's two!! Giratina and Darkrai!!" Vecransyh is silent for a moment blinking at the know-it-all trainer,
"Darkrai is a Dark type." The boy shifts his eyes for a moment before he takes out a small red square and presses a few buttons on it before he goes wide-eyed,
"You're right!!" Vecransyh rolls his eyes,
"Of course I'm right. I know everything about ghost types. Way more then you dude." The boy enlarges his pokeball as his eyes narrow,
"We'll see whose training method is better!!" The announcer's voice booms over the stadium as Vecransyh takes a black pokeball from his belt,
"WELCOME ALL TO THE THIRTEENTH BATTLE OF THE SINNOH POKEMON LEAGUE TOURNAMENT!!! THIS BATTLE IS BETWEEN... no last names on either person... whatever, LEN AND VECRANSYH!!!!!" The crowd roars in applause when Vecransyh's name is said and Vec looks around at all the screaming people most of which are screaming his name and he rolls his eyes looking at Xylina,
"I wonder how long it'll be till people forget about me mortally wounding myself." Xylina shrugs with a happy giggle,
"Never."
"WITHOUT FURTHER ADO LET THE BATTLE BEGIN!!!" Len smirks as he throws his pokeball releasing a Banette onto the field but instead of a happy face its expression is cold and well, scary. Vecransyh's eye twitches at the sight of the Pokemon and he shakes his head looking down,
"Time to teach this guy a lesson about ghosts." Vecransyh enlarges the black pokeball in his hand and Xylina eyes it curiously,
"What's that?" Vecransyh looks at her with a confident smile,
"New guy." Vecransyh throws the pokeball and Sableye appears on the field, "Let's go Sableye!!" Sableye hops on one foot for a few seconds before jumping up and landing upside down on one hand. He turns his head around before grinning widely and jumps off his hand back to his feet, and the second his feet touch the ground he takes off in a full on sprint towards Banette. Banette tries to prepare for a full on attack, but Sableye ducks down, and slides underneath Banette's legs. He springs up behind it, and chops it in the back with his forearm. Banette takes the hit hard as it flies forward a few feet before landing on its face. Banette gets up with an angry look on its face as Sableye stands, slouched over, picking his nose. Banette closes its eyes and holds its hand out, forming a shadow ball. It then spins around fast and throws it at Sableye. Sableye, without even thinking, runs full speed at the shadow ball, and jumps above it. But as he passes the attack he reaches out and grabs the shadow ball in his own hands. He flips in the air, and throws it back at the unsuspecting ghost-type. Banette takes the hit to the face and is knocked out on impact followed by a large explosion. Len's expression is nothing but complete shock as he recalls his fainted Banette and he switches out for his second pokeball. Len releases a Male Mismagius to the field with the same expression as the Banette and Vecransyh turns to Xylina with a smile as Sableye disappears into his own ball, "You're up." Xylina nods and floats out onto the field before the two ghosts go into battle poses,
"May the best ghost win." The Mismagius narrows his eyes,
"I plan to." As the Mismagius rushes forward with a shadow ball in his grip Xylina simply floats there doing nothing until the ghost throws his arm forward and gets punched in the face hard by a vicious Sucker-punch. The Mismagius reels from the attack for a bit to long and takes a shadow ball followed by a second. Xylina suddenly hears a faint singing and tries to block it out but fails as she hears the perish song. She rushes forward determined to defeat the Mismagius before her timer runs out. Xylina finds the opposing Mismagius in the dense smoke a bit too late and is on the receiving end of a powerful shadow ball. She flies from the cloud of smoke and lands on her back before she rises up narrowing her eyes into the dispersing fog. She opens her mouth and a beam of energy forms that looks like it originates from her glowing amulet. The beam is released a moment later in a direct hit on the opposing Mismagius. Xylina smirks triumphantly before she's punched in the face by a Sucker-punch by Mismagius. She shakes off the blow and charges a shadow ball and throws it towards Mismagius. The two Pokemon suddenly freeze for a moment before they collapse as their perish song timers run out. Vecransyh takes Xylina's ball from his belt and she disappears into it and Vecransyh looks at the red and white sphere with a smile,
"You did great." Len returns his Mismagius and takes out his third pokeball,
"You're not going to beat me." Vecransyh raises an eyebrow,
"It's 2 to 1 and my Pokemon are a little bit stronger then yours. You got lucky that last round from the perish song." Len scowls and responds by sending out his Gengar. Vecransyh falls silent as he looks into the face of the Pokemon. The thing about this Gengar... it's not smiling. Vecransyh's eye twitches as his own Gengar comes out groaning at the sunlight with a big smile on his face regardless, "Tell me Len. How long did it take you to make your Gengar stop smiling?" Len chuckles,
"Had to make him scary no matter how long it took. Smiles just aren't scary." Vecransyh shakes his head,
"Then let this be a lesson to you. Gengar! No mercy!!" Gengar nods with his normal evil smile on his face and he rushes forward slamming a shadow ball into the opposing Gengar's face before he jumps back to avoid any counterattack and lunges forward using the ground as a springboard and he slashes his claws down the torso of the Gengar before sweeping his legs and slamming another shadow ball into him. Gengar repeats this for a number of minutes before his expression turns angry with frustration as he continues slashing and shadow balling his opponent,
"Why won't you go down?!?!" As Gengar stares down the non-smiling version of himself an eerie fog covers the field and Len's Gengar disappears from view with nothing but a faint laugh. Gengar closes his eyes letting his smile fade as he focuses on where the laughter is coming from and within a few seconds he lunges out to the side with a combined Shadow Claw cloaked in a Shadow Ball and Len's Gengar takes the full force of the attack sending him flying backwards from so much damage that he slams into the edge of the field at the stands. The fog fades away and Gengar folds his arms with a smirk as he looks across at Len, "He's got quite a bit of stamina but that's all he has. Crappy speed was his downfall because that attack he had looked pretty powerful." Len scowls as he Gengar returns to his ball and he puts the orb back on his belt as he folds his arms,
"I don't need a lecture from a non-scary ghost type." Gengar pauses before he moves to quickly that he's just a blur and within under a second he's eye level with Len looking into his eyes with pure, evil, bloodlust,
"I'm coming for you in your sleep tonight. You can run but I will find you. Know that you are no longer safe on this planet as I exist. Now run... run from death." Len goes blue in the face and he passes out falling to the ground with a thud. Gengar walks over to Vecransyh as he stretches his arms, "Well that was fun." Vec raises an eyebrow as he looks at the Pokemon,
"What did you say to him?" Gengar shrugs,
"I simply showed him that I'm just as scary as his so-called 'scary' Pokemon." Gengar and Vecransyh high-five and Vecransyh walks out of the stadium followed by Gengar at his side. The announcer speaks when Vecransyh leaves,
"AND SO ENDS THE THIRTEENTH BATTLE OF THE LEAGUE... CAN WE PLEASE GET THE MEDICAL TEAM TO GET A LOOK AT THE PASSED OUT TRAINER ON THE FIELD PLEASE? ANYWAY, THE NEXT BATTLE WILL TAKE PLACE IN ABOUT TEN MINUTES SO TAKE A BREAK BUT DON'T GO TO FAR POKEMON FANS!!"
Kazamaru walks onto the field into the blazing sun as the roar of the crowd fills his ears an hour and a half later. He cracks his neck followed by his knuckles as he arrives in his trainer square,
"So then... who am I..." Kazamaru raises his eyebrow as he looks across the field from himself to his opponent, "Oh." Jyro face palms as he catches sight of Kaza,
"Oh this is just great!! You rigged the pairings didn't you!!" Kazamaru chuckles as he brings a pokeball into his hand and presses the button enlarging the red and white ball,
"Nice to see you too Jyro. Same bet as last time?" Jyro scowls as he takes a pokeball from his own belt making the same action on the button,
"We'll see if you'll win this time kid!! I'm way stronger then I was last time we fought so if you want a chance then you'd better have trained as hard as I did!" The announcer's voice booms across the stadium as the two trainers glare at each other,
"WELCOME ALL TO THE TWENTY-THIRD BATTLE OF THE SINNOH POKEMON LEAGUE TOURNAMENT!!! THIS MATCH IS BETWEEN KAZAMARU AND JYRO BOTH OF WHICH FAILED TO WRITE THEIR LAST NAMES ON THE SIGN IN SHEETS WHICH DOESN'T REALLY MATTER SEEING AS HOW BOTH OF THEIR NAMES ARE SO COMPLETELY UNIGUE THAT NOONE IN THE WORLD COULD POSSIBLY HAVE THE SAME NAME!!! BUT I DIGRESS... LET THE BATTLE BEGIN!!!" Jyro's pokeball opens in a huge flash of light releasing a powerful purple dinosaur that roars powerfully before begin met with Kazamaru's Rhyperior as an opponent. Nidoking glares at his opponent and his eyes go wide as Rhyperior raises his arm making his palm face towards him and he fires a barrage of boulders from a small opening that fly towards him striking him in lightning fast succession. Rhyperior lowers his arm looking across at the horribly weakened Nidoking with little interest but Nidoking suddenly rushed forward lunging powerfully with his arms but his claws are suddenly interlocked with Rhyperior's who removes one of his hands from the purple dinosaur's to place it on his arm and with a grunt Rhyperior knocks Nidoking to the ground and begins swinging him around like he weighs nothing. After a few brief seconds Rhyperior throws Nidoking into the ground making the dinosaur roar in pain as he skids across the ground looking up as he comes to a stop only to see another Rock Blast attack. Jyro's eyes widen as Nidoking turns into a red silhouette returning to his ball and he reattaches the ball to his belt shaking his head in disbelief,
"What the hell was that?!" Kazamaru shrugs,
"Rhyperior."
"Well I knew that but that just wasn't fair!!"
"You're in the Pokemon league bro."
"Yeah but..."
"Are you giving up? You still have two more Pokemon."
"No!! I just wasn't expecting such a quick loss from Nidoking."
"So... next Pokemon please?" Jyro rolls his eyes as he takes a second pokeball from his belt and enlarges it,
"Fine then..." Muk rises from the second ball with what sounds like a roar as it slides towards Rhyperior only to take a punch to its face but being only a pile of slime it forms around Rhyperior's arm as the plated dinosaur tries to shake himself free. Kazamaru smirks as Rhyperior looks back at him,
"Hyper Beam." Rhyperior nods and turns back to the pile of slime forming a huge amount of energy in his mouth. He suddenly feels greatly weakened though as the poisonous body seeps through his plated skin. He shakes off the feeling and releases the energy obliterating the Muk attached to his arm freeing himself from the Pokemon's toxic grip and effectively defeating the pile of sludge. Muk reforms although unconscious and disappears into his pokeball and Jyro takes out his third,
"What kind of training did you go through to get this strong?!" Kazamaru chuckles with a big grin,
"Eight months of nonstop training will do that for ya!" Jyro sighs as he throws his final pokeball releasing a Toxicroak onto the field. The frog strikes a battle pose before he runs towards the poisoned Rhyperior dodging the powerful punch throws at him and Toxicroak leaps into the air bringing his fist down onto Rhyperior's head. Toxicroak leaps back landing in front of the behemoth and watches with a smirk as it falls forward but the smirk quickly fades and Toxicroak tries to run away before he is crushed by Rhyperior knocking him out on contact. Kazamaru gives Jyro a thumb's up as he grins, "And that's game!! So go get yourself cleaned up Mr. Poison!!" Jyro closes his eyes festering in his rage from his absolutely total defeat,
"I hate you so much." He then returns Toxicroak to his ball before he walks out of the arena hanging his head knowing that he now had to go take a shower washing away almost a year of his grease. The announcer's voice booms through the stadium as it erupts in applause,
"AND THE BATTLE IS OVER SHORTLY AFTER IT STARTS LEAVING KAZAMARU IN AN ALMOST TOTAL VICTORY..." The announcer stops as Rhyperior stands up and brushes off his shoulder looking fine, "MAKE THAT TOTAL VICTORY!!! THE NEXT BATTLE WILL TAKE PLACE IN TEN MINUTES SO DON'T GO TOO FAR!!"
Scarlet steps lightly across the field to her trainer's square as she hums a soft tune nearly two hours after Kazamaru had won his battle,
"First battle time, alright... let's do this..." she stops as she looks across the field at her opponent. The figure in question is a girl, roughly eleven or possibly twelve. She wears a green dress that goes down to her upper knees and she has very light purple around her pinkish-red eyes. Across her shoulder is a brown strap with a small pink bag sitting comfortably at her waist. When the girl's eyes meet the sight that is Scarlet the girl waves shyly as she takes a pokeball from her pocket. Scarlet waves back awkwardly, (Okay...? Not the most intimidating presence but you can never judge a person on appearances because that's how you lose.) The announcer's voice booms over the crowd in a happy tone,
"WELCOME ONE AND ALL TO THE THIRTY-FIFTH BATTLE OF THE SINNOH POKEMON LEAGUE TOURNAMENT!!!!!! THIS IS A BATTLE BETWEEN ONE SCARLET ALLISON AND ONE... I SEEM TO BE MISSING A LAST NAME BUT THE FIRST NAME OF THE OTHER TRAINER IS AVERY!!!!" The crowd bursts into applause and Scarlet takes a pokeball from her belt as she smiles confidently,
"Get ready girly!!"
"WITHOUT FURTHER ADO LET THE BATTLE BEGIN!!!" In two flashes of light Dane stands across from a ladybug that zips around randomly. The Ledian stops as it spots Dane and the two stare each other down for a few moments before Dane hits the bug type with a powerful blast of psychic energy. Avery throws her arm forward with a confident look on her face,
"Ledian! X-Scissor!!" Ledian rushes forward avoiding Dane's attacks as its many hands glow and form into shiny claws. Dane's eyes widen as he suddenly feels the full force of the attack rock his body as the Ledian's claws slash him in an X shape. Dane unleashes a Dark Pulse that sends Ledian flying backwards and Dane wobbles a bit as he clutches his chest a small amount of blood forming in his hand from the attack. The pink Alakazam glares at the bug and scowls when it smirks, "Ledian! One more X-Scissor should do it!!" Ledian rushes forward and Dane shakes his head before throwing the rest of his power into a final Dark Pulse that the Ledian simply barrels through before slashing him with the super effective attack leaving Dane unconscious and Ledian barely able to stand. Avery throws her arm up as she giggles, "Yay! Ledian you did it!!" Scarlet returns Dane to his ball and she brings a second ball into her hand,
(I need to get the upper hand if I'm going to beat this girl... hopefully she doesn't only have bug types or I'll have to use my... new acquisition.) Scarlet's shiny Grumpig rises from her ball in a brief shimmer of light and sparkles and she cracks her neck looking forward at the bug type with a grin,
"Thing can barely fly! This'll be over in a second." Grumpig sprints forward and catches a glimpse of the startled expression on the Pokemon's face before she Mega Punches it in the gut sending it flying backwards to the ground. Avery makes an irritated face as she returns Ledian and switches for her second Pokemon,
"You'll pay for that!!!" Grumpig waves her arms in a wave-like motion as she laughs,
"Ooh, I'm so scared!" As the second ball opens a Jynx appears and the ice-type says her name before Grumpig jumps away from it to avoid a blast of ice, "You'll have to be faster then that!!" Jynx unleashes a huge blizzard that cloaks the field in snow and Grumpig shakes herself of it before she smiles gripping her stomach, "Sorry girly but I've got Thick Fat." The gem on top of Grumpig's head starts to glow brightly before she fires a powerful beam of energy that hits home causing massive damage to Jynx. Grumpig takes another Blizzard attack and smirks as her gem glows again, "You're done." The second Power Gem attack leaves Jynx on the ground and she returns to her pokeball a moment later. Avery takes her third pokeball from her belt as Grumpig cracks her knuckles followed by her neck as she rolls her shoulders, "Whew! What a workout! I could do this all day!!" The their pokeball opens in a flash of light and suddenly Grumpig feels a huge sting of pain as her body is engulfed in a Dragon Pulse attack. Grumpig falls to the ground during the attack but picks herself up looking towards the assailant to find a male Altaria looking at her with a smirk,
"You look tired. Wanna take a break?" Grumpig scowls and responds by blasting the dragon/flying type with Power Gem but even though the attack did a high amount of damage Altaria easily finishes Grumpig with a few more Dragon Pulses. Scarlet returns Grumpig to her ball and takes out her final letting out a long breath,
"It's a long shot but he may be my only chance if I don't want to reveal my secret weapon just yet..." Gallade rises from his ball and his arm blades grow with a ringing, sword-like sound,
"Bring it birdie."
"Gallade! You know what to do!" Gallade nods back at Scarlet and goes into a battle stance,
"I understand what I must do." Altaria rushes forward in an attempted Aerial Ace but Gallade throws up his bladed elbows deflecting the attack and he stomps his foot making many rocks fly up in front of him and he swings his arm striking them all and sending them flying towards Altaria. The flying type takes the attack head on and falls to the ground as Gallade folds his arms, "Check mate." Avery lets out a sigh and returns Altaria before she walks forward and shakes hands with Gallade,
"It was a good battle." Gallade nods with a smile,
"Indeed it was. Your Pokemon are very powerful and if you keep raising them as you are they'll only get stronger." Gallade turns into a red silhouette of himself and Scarlet approaches the girl before she shakes her hand,
"Sorry about knocking you out in the first round." Avery shakes her head with a smile,
"I came here because I had a little time off from contests. No hard feelings Ms. Scarlet." The announcer's voice booms across the stadium from the loudspeakers,
"THAT WAS TRULY A FANTASTIC BATTLE AND SCARLET WILL BE MOVING ON TO ROUND TWO OF THE COMPETITION!!!! BATTLES WILL BE RESUMING TOMORROW MORNING SO GET SOME REST AND COME BACK FOR MORE GREAT BATTLES!!!"
