"Ah, I didn't really know much about the resort. I mean, I went there a lot with my grandparents but they kinda sheltered me..." she trailed off, and noticed Tsuya's new outfit. "Wow!" she gushed. "That's really cute, I like it!" She grinned. Tsuya's little sailor outfit was cute, and she was glad that the girl was happy. Espeon eyeballed the little Eevee that had lept in front of her. "Espi! Pi!" the purple Pokemon grinned, and began leaping around with her lower evolution.
Skylar watched as Yuki retired to her room. "I think I'm going to stay out on deck," she said, not particularly to anybody. She walked over to the railing and leaned over, looking at the rolling blue waves below.

"Attention everybody!!2 The familiar voice of Alder boomed through the ship.

"Once again you're on a vehicle which all passengers are trainers. Have fun battling!" The voice cuts off after that, no more about where to battle or anything, Yuki guessed anywhere. Haha now I can have that battle with Skylar Yuki thought with a grin.

he aproached Skylar who was leaning over the railings.

"You still up for that battle then?" he asked confidently.

Skylar listened as Alder's voice boomed through the ship. Wait, so this was set up too? she thought, frowning slightly. He was saying something about everyone on board being a trainer. She didn't think much of it, and continued to watch the water. Someone was approaching from behind, and Skylar turned curiously. It was Yuki, and he was wondering if they could have their battle.
"Of course! When?" she grinned deviously. Hopefully I'll be able to try Combusken out...If he doesn't fall asleep again. Or perhaps Flygon would like a shot... Her mind raced. She didn't want to use Espeon...Not yet. Squirtle and Riolu were her secret weapons. But should she show off Flygon's strength? She didn't know. Combusken wasn't very trustworthy though...Would he even battle?

Tabris-On the Ferry Part 3

Hearing the Champion of Unova over the intercom, Tabris rolled his eyes. "Of course he'd behind this as well." Tabris thought outloud getting a hiss from Snease. "Wonder if he can be trusted, so far he's been leading us with deception...perhaps I'll have a word with him" He continued turning from the deck heading for the Captain's quarters.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Eevee happily darted from the Espeon barking it's own Pokecomments. Tsuya blushed at Skylar's reply to her new outfit. She stepped aside as Yuki approached asking Skylar for a battle. Tsuya sat down out of the way and watched the two, she decided that taking notes on a Pokemon Battle would be good now that she too was a legit trainer. Calling Eevee over the Pokemon curled up in her lap and waited patiently for the battle to commence.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Knocking on the door, but not waiting for a reply Tabris stepped into the room where Alder had been. "Excuse me, Champ. I've got a couple questions." Tabris beamed evilly as he took out a Great Ball from his necklace. "First off, how were you able to board the ferry when it wasn't even in port? And secondly." He paused tossing the ball into the air casually catching it. "How long have you had this boat trip set up for us? Seems a little bit too convient on your part, remember that this isn't Unova. How is it your managing so much pull?" Tabris continued his interigation.

The Ferry

Justin and Absol found a room on the ship and went in. Justin sat down, set his bag beside him and looked at Absol, "Well Absol, looks like we can finally relax abit." The two looked up as Alder spoke on the intercom. "On second thought, you can relax, I need to figure out what kind of moves Charmeleon and Tauros know.." Justin grabbed some pokeballs and walked out of the room, Absol ran up and followed him.

The two walked out onto the deck, Justin overheard Yuki and Skylar mention something about battling, "Maybe we should go to the upper deck, that way we can train away from the action." "Sol." Absol ran over to the stairs and waited for it's trainer. Once the two walked up Justin tossed the two pokeballs out infront of him, Charmeleon and Tauros appeared and looked at eachother. "Ok, now to figure out what you guys can do..."

"Alright!" Yuki yelled as he threw his fist in the air.

"3 on 3? Ok?" He then ran out to the part of the ship closest to the helm and stoof battle ready, itching for a battle. He then pulled out is first pokéball. Finally, time to prove his worth.

"Ampharos, I need your help buddy!" the familiar red light formed the yellow figure almost instantly as the Ampharos quickly got into a battle pose and a determined look spread across his face.

"I'll let you take the first move!" he shouted across the court.

Yuki grinned. His first battle in a while. This was bound to be interesting.

- - - - - - - - - - -

Alder stared at tabris, his face gawping at his comment. He scratched the back of his head innocently.

"Hm, First off I, erm, bought the ship, and I knew the captain. That pretty much sums it up." That was all Alder could say. He shrugged his shoulders and turned around to sit on a chair and pull out a biscuit.



Zzz. the sound of electricity could be heard. It came close bye and wasn't very loud, almost like an alarm.

"Going down." Alder said with a smile.

Skylar laughed and sped after him toward the helm, and pulled out a pokeball. They would be holding a 3 on 3 battle, and as Yuki sent out Ampharos, she knew who she would choose. "Flygon, c'mon out!" she yelled, and the green dragon appeared with a roar. Determination flashed in his eyes. Yuki called across the court, stating that Skylar could have the first move. "Great!" she narrowed her eyes and grinned. She was itching to get this battle going.
Ampharos is an electric type, so a ground type move would be a great way to start this off! she thought, then called to her Pokemon: "Flygon, use Earthquake!"
"Flyyygon!" He slapped his tail on the ground and the area where they were battling began shaking slightly. He was smart enough to know not to use earthquake on the whole ship; breaking the boat wasn't exactly the best idea...

Tsuya- Observer of Battle

Rising to her feet Tsuya attempted to follow the two, to where they have decided to commence the battle. However due to Skylar's first move of Earthquake curtousy of Flygon she lost her footing. Falling onto the wooden surface of the deck, she wasn't hurt but had troubles getting back up. Using the railing for stability Tsuya pulled herself up and moved slowly to be closer to the action. Eevee wobbled behind her trainer. Once the duo made it near by, but still off a bit as to not get caught in any crossfire, Tsyua again sat down, but continued to hold onto the rail with one hand and stablizing Eevee with her other. 'Wow! I already know that i wouldn't have a chance...' Tsuya monologued looking down to her new Pokemon Partner. "You'd still try wouldn't you?" She asked getting a yelp reply from Eevee who faced the action.

An earthquake, ujust as Yuki predicted. Skylar's technique was using type disadvantages to her advantage, good for her.

"Ampharos, quickly jump and use thunderbolt full strength!"

Ampharos did as instructed and soon was slightly hovering above the ground, in other words, dodging the move completely in a new way. The earthquake subsided and te next order was called.

"Double team quickly!" With quick precision a number of healthy looking Ampharos's surrounded the enemy flygon quickly. There was always ways of getting hit in a double team, luck or aura, and usually the only perked sense a Flygon really had was sound, which was usually the most common perk, so it seemed unlikely that the Flygon would hit Ampharos, but if it did, Ampharos could easily defend itself... The worry of if this was going to hit or not made Yuki come up with a plan incase the Flygon came towards Ampharos with a physical move... ice punch!

Skylar watched as Ampharos dodged with a quick Thunderbolt. She grinned. It was a good way to use the move...But electric type moves won't have any effect since Flygon's also a ground type! Ampharos used Double Team, and a whole ring of Ampharos surrounded her Pokemon. Flygon looked around nervously, inspecting each copy, however they each looked exactly the same so there was no way he could figure out which was the true one. Skylar bit her lip, and an idea popped into her mind.
Yuki might use a physical move on me, causing all of the Ampharos to attack, and Flygon won't know which one to dodge...Unless...
"Flygon, fly up!" she yelled. Her pokemon obeyed, kicking up dust as he shot up in the air. Yes! her grin grew wider. Flygons could create sandstorms with just their wings, and this would lower Ampharos' evasiveness. But Flygon could see thanks to the red 'goggles' over his eyes. "Now, fly down and use Dragon Tail on each of the Ampharos!"
Flygon turned and dove downwards, his tail glowing. He could see each of the yellow Pokemon clearly, and began breaking his way through the clones.

Tabris- Trapped!

'Going down?' Tabris repeated in his mind as a quiet alarm like electronic buzz echoed though the room. Then before he knew it the floor benieth him opened up dropping down benieth the surface of the ship. There he was instantly ambushed by guards who gripped his arm that still held the Great Ball. Easily over powering both he and Snease the guards tossed the small weasle into a cell. Away from his Partner. Tabris was also restrained inside an identical one.

With his other Pokemon confiscated he watched one of the guards hang his necklace of Pokeballs on a rack down a moderately long hall way. In the cell Tabris had but a blanket. "What the hell! You coward!" He screamed his anger up to Alder, through the now closed ceiling. "Bastards, what the hell is going on?!" He shouted to the guards that left the room laughing amongst themselves. Sitting down in the corner of his cell, Tabris looked around the brig. He could see two other identical cells, each with another prisoner.

"Hey!" He called to his cell mates, they looked horrible, as if they've been trapped here for sometime. "You know what's going on here? What does Alder have planned?" He asked reletively quiet, but still loud enough to gain their attention.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Back on deck Tsuya watched the battle mesmorized by both trainer's tactics. "Wow, Eevee, so exciting! I can't wait until we get a chance to prove our worth." She spoke to her Pokemon, who simply yawned a reply this time. A wave of sandy wind blew across Tsuya's face as she sheilded her Pokemon from it.

Each Amparos slowly disaperead one by one beneath the sandstorm that blocked the view. Yuki gritted his teeth. Stand your ground Ampharos, soon very soon...

"Now!" Yuki shouted as the flygon aproached Ampharos, who quickly responded with an ice punch. Ampharos charged forward, missing, but dodging at the same time as the Flygon swooped down with dragon tail and hit the spot ampharos previously was.

"Again!" Ampharos quickly swooped around, and aimed at the Flygon, who was still recovering from the failed attack and ran forward with the ice punch charged up.

"Go go go!" Yuki shouted.

----------------------------

A man looked up at Tabris. he was about 40 years of age and had dark rims under his eyes from the lack of sleep. His sirt was torn and all there was to him was flesh. He looked into Tabris's eyes before checking if the coast was clear. He then moved a little closer to the bars and wrapped is hands around the bars, pulling himself forward. he coughed and spluttered before he spoke

"They plan to train you, heard 'em talking about it a little while ago, make you a soldier against the proven. I'm not sure about the rest, as I'm only here because I denied what I saw when I got to Kanto a long time ago.

Tabris- Trapped! Part 2

The older man pulled himself weakly over to the bars of his cage gripping them for support. The man had a rough time speaking and his ansewer only flooded Tabris' mind with more questions. 'This man seen, Kanto? Denying the promised land of Pokemon Trainers? A Soldier agaisnt the Proven?' Tabris shook his head in disbelief. "How long have they held you captive? You've been to Kanto?" He questioned. Without a pause he continued. "Why me? We were heading to fight the Proven now, what purpous does he have to lock me up? That son of a bi***!" He looked up to the place where he had fallen down his eyes slowly transitioning one of pure rage to one of worry. "Skylar, Yuki, Justin...Tsuya..." He trailed off turning back towards the man. "What about my friends? Have you heard anything what he plans for them?" He spoke in a more less frantic tone, letting the man know that this was primarily the question he wanted answered. He didn't want to strain the man too much, he was in bad enough shape as is.

Flygon's tail hit the ground, smashing the spot where Ampharos previously stood. The yellow Pokemon zipped past him with an ice punch, barely missing. Suddenly, he turned and began charging ice punch again. "Flygon, get outta there!" Skylar yelled. Her Pokemon flapped his wings to retreat to the sky, but Ampharos was quick. The move made contact and Flygon hit the ground with a thud. He stood up shakily as the sandstorm cleared. "Fly up, then Hyper Beam!" determination was thick in Skylar's voice.
The green dragon charged the move as he flew up, and once he got high enough, let loose the beam of white light.

Training

"Ok Charmeleon" Justin said reaching into his pocket, "Use flamethrower on this coin." He pulled out his battle coin and showed it to the red lizard. Then he reached into his bag and pulled out a heavily padded arm guard, "Ok Tauros, horn attack." Justin put one leg back and braced for an impact then flipped the coin into the air for Tauros. Charmeleon followed the coin with it's eyes then shot a burst of flames at it as Tauros ran at Justin. Tauros slammed it's horn into it's trainer's arm as hard as it could, causing Justin to fall back and hit the ground. "Alright, good job Tauros, now try to stomp me." Tauros stood up on its hind legs and slammed its hooves down at it's trainer. Justin rolled to the side, barely dodging the bull's legs.

"Gonna have to move faster than that Tauros." The large pokemon huffed and tried smashing his trainer again. Justin rolled and dodged again, but Tauros quickly shifted with it's trainer and slammed his hoof down, Justin barely got his arm over his face in time. "Ok, good job Tauros" Justin stood up and shook his arm, "Alright Charmeleon, slash time." He got in a fighting stance, threw the arm guard down then held his arms up in fists. Charmeleon gave a nod then took a run at it's trainer. It slashed at Justin as fast as it could, Justin managed to block each attack with his own arms. Sand from the deck below blew over and Justin returned his pokemon. Justin and Absol walked over to the railing to see the battle.

A hyper beam heading straight at Ampharos. No way to dodge it now, there's really only one thing to do...

"brace for impact Ampharos, now cotton guard!" The yellow pokémon began summoning puffs of cotton that surrounded the pokémon, raising it's defence drastically. The beam of light hit Ampharos soon after and made him move back by about a metre, no dramatic damage done, as most of the attack was absorbed by the cotton. The pokémons defence boost had worn away now, and a few scratches here and there could be seen as Ampharos was worn down by the attack.

Yuki quickly called for the 'signal beam' attack, and Ampharos obeyed after a second of a breather. A huge bug type move headed straight for Flygon who was currently in the air recharging after it's hyper beam. Surely this couldn't miss?

Flygon huffed after the powerful move, however Ampharos only took slight damage. Skylar gritted her teeth as Yuki called for Signal Beam. A wild light shot towards Flygon, who was just about recovered from Hyper Beam. "Flygon, use Dragon Tail on the Signal Beam!"
Flygon's tail glowed again, though not as powerfully as it previously had. His tail smashed into the beam, and though he was still hurt by the move, the damage wasnt nearly as much as it could've been. Flygon flew back after the move and awaited Skylar's next command.
"Aerial Ace now!" Skylar called, and Flygon turned and dove toward Ampharos.

A quick recovery allowed Flygon to deflect the beam with it's sturdy tail, although it probably still took a bit of damage. Now comes the aerial ace, although Ampharos could definately withstand it. Aerial ace is a move that is extremely difficult to dodge, although some moves can deflect it.

"Now, Ampharos use your echoed voice strength 1!" The echoed voice slightly damaged Flygon, still the attack came down knocking Ampharos to the floor. He quickly got up.

"Again! Echoed voice, strength 2!" The echoed voice definitely caused a bit of a backfire as the move pushed back Flygon by about a metre.

"Haha, once he goes, you can't stop him, you come close, he'll strike you again with echoed voice. You've shown me all your moves, dragon tail, hyper beam, aerial ace, earthquake. All of these moves can easily be deflected with echoed voice," Yuki teased Skylar. Yuki was pleased that he got the timing right, otherwise the move could have been easily deflected, plus with Flygon's hearing it would have been detected quicker if he had done it was recovering.

--------------------------

"I don't know," the man sighed, before etching back into the darkness of his cell. He huddled in a corner. "Probably the same as you," he said quietly, but just enough for Tabris to hear.

"Tick tock, your time is up!" Another person, a girls voice, dismal, yet healthier. Tabris couldn't see her, but there was definitely a voice.

"The old man's right. Kanto just wants us to fight a war with the rest of the world. That's what the leagues about. the best of the best. Surely you figured that out earlier right?" Oh and this boat isn't headed for the resort island anymore, not since the commotion up top. Heard the guards talk about it. Oh and don't talk to the guy in the cell to the right of the old man. Completely brainwashed." The girl sighed. "That's all I know, sorry."

Tabris- Trapped Part 3

Cursing silently to himself as the man pressed further back into his cell, Tabris was about to do the same when another voice came from the darkness of the brig, a girl's. "Kanto just wants us to fight a war with the rest of the world. That's what the leagues about. the best of the best. Surely you figured that out earlier, right?" The girl spoke hidden from view. 'Don't tell anybody this, but a war is comming.' Tabris reflected upon his short conversation with Alder before he had headed for Olivine. The female's voice continued informing Tabris that they were not heading for the Resort Island, and to avoid conversation with the brainwashed man to the right of the first.

Tabris didn't really have a response to the girl's statements, as she declared that was all she knew. Didn't seem like they got much visitation from the guards, given the lack of information of the two. Slightly helpful, but not nearly enough to figure out what exactly was going on. Tabris moved back into his cell as the older man had done. He balled his blanket up and used it as a pillow. Closing his eyes, he didn't start sleeping but rather meditation.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The battle raged on, both trainer's continued to do well against one another, however it seemed as though Yuki had a slightly better strategy. Tsuya looked up to where Justin was leaning over the rail to also be viewing the fight and waved. Quickly before turning back towards Ampharos and Flygon were still battling. "Surely their both in a pretty weakend state by now, hmm Eevee?" Eevee looked up to her trainer and shrugged. The Pokemon could tell that determination was in both the combantants and that niether one would give up so easily.

Skylar clenched her fists as Flygon took damage from Echoed Voice. Yuki's good, she thought, but I won't give up just yet. Flygon's hearing is good, perhaps that'll be in his favor... Flygon stood in front of her, breathing heavily. He was tired, but not yet beaten.
"Flygon, Earthquake! And watch out for those Echoed Voices!"
Her Pokemon nodded, and his antenna pricked up as Earthquake began. He listened closely to Ampharos' movements, ready to dodge quickly to the skies if another Echoed Voice was fired out. He was much quicker on the air than on the ground, and he used this to his advantage.
Skylar frowned slightly however. What if Yuki decided a different move at the last moment? Well, Flygon was listening, so hopefully he could dodge it, but she began planning ahead.
If I use any offensive move, Cotton Spore will take the damage...Unless...Flygon blows it away? she didn't know if it would work, but it was worth a try if the move came up again.

Another eartquake. She was attempting to catch Ampharos off guard and then dodge his attack. Clever, but she doesn't know physics well. Yes a flygon can levitate but it's not exactly flying, so the wings only help it glide. So, all Ampharos ad to do was to lose it concentration.

"Thuinderbolt on Flygon." A bolt of lightning, a move that was surely to be unexpected, caused no effect but there was definitely a feeling that the Flygon got hit, if anything it might have cringed, hopefully. Before he could stop to see the reults he called out is next attack.

"Echoed voice strength 3!" This time the attack would be as strong as a STAB attack hitting a pokémon with normal effect. Next time it would be STAB super effective, then stab super effective critical hit. If the Flygon doesn't faint now,it's got to next turn, or the turn after.

Flygon was stunned by the lightning bolt, though he took no effect from it. He struggled to keep on listening thorough the move. "C'mon...C'mon..." Skylar knew Yuki would shoot off another Echoed Voice, but if Flygon kept listening, perhaps he could dodge it.
And there it was. Ampharos let out Echoed Voice strength 3, and the move blasted toward Flygon. "Get outta there! Dragon Tail!" she yelled desperately. Flygon shot upwards before the attack hit, and hovered above Ampharos. Skylar could tell he was exhausted, but they weren't giving up just yet.
"Now!" came the command, and Flygon flipped his tail straight toward Ampharos, his wings flapping desperately to gain speed to avoid a counter attack.

"Ampharos!" Yuki shouted as the unstunned Flygon charged head first into Ampharos. Haha perfect. It was exactly like before with the aerial ace, even better the flygon's got speed.

"And release!" Yuki shouted in realization of how close the flygon was. A burst of energy came from Ampharos, strength 4, and projected loudly against Flygon's earlobes. Hopefully the pokémon will lose concentration and crash, especially with all that damage.

"How about we just have a two on two Skylar?" Yuki yelled across the field.

"After all, this one has taken a while, and I wouldn't be to surprised by the next one."

"This one is definately about to come to an end!" Yuki teased.

Tsuya- Observer of Battle Part 2

As the first portion of the battle looked as though it were coming to a close Tsuya noted, Yuki's mention about lowering the Pokemon count of the battle by one, making the match a 2 on 2. She couldn't however tell if he was serious or joking to rub it into Skylar's weakend Flygon. With the Echoed Voice getting stronger and stronger Eevee even flinched as the strength 4 move was released. Tsuya quickly sheilded her Pokemon's long ears and continued to watch. "Ohhh, I can't wait!" She thought outloud, rather audibly. Eevee sighed, obviously recognizing the other Pokemon to be far out of her league, by appearance, at least.

"Fight against it!" Skylar yelled, as Flygon's tail connected with Echoed Voice inches from Ampharos' face. Flygon gritted his teeth and pushed harder, though he could feel his energy quickly draining. The move was taking effect, and Flygon fought to hold his concentration.
Yuki called across the field, offering a two-on-two battle instead. "Sounds good," Skylar called back, not keeping her eyes off of the two Pokemon. Suddenly, there was an explosion as the moves reached their full intensity and couldn't take it anymore. Flygon went tumbling back into the smoke. He was hurt badly, and Skylar knew the result before the smoke lifted. When it finally did, Flygon was on his back, fainted.
