Ryu sent out three Pokemon, Tyranitar, Camerupt and Hitmonlee while Dalis sent out Scyther, Venusaur and a Blastoise. The referee looked at them oddly and stepped forward. "You two do realize that it should be one on one with only a maximum of three correct?" The young man looked at the ref and shrugged.
"I wanna get this over with so I can win." Dalis said.
"Good luck kid, you're at a type disadvantage though." Ryu announced while chuckling.
"Oh yeah? Well that weird Camerupt of yours is weak to my Blastoise...but why is it black?" Dalis asked.
Ryu smirked and took a deep breath. "Because you're an idiot who doesnt understand that this is a Shiny Pokemon. A rare breed that occurs once out of every eight thousand or so Pokemon of a certain species. I just so happened to catch it as a Numel, and it evolved, keeping its Shiny rarity. You could say this is a very rare Camerupt, with better stats and everything. Ref, lets make this three vs three, all out win or lose."
The ref nodded and started the battle. The camera zoomed in onto the action in Ryu's room, as well as the other rooms to give the fans and audience members who were seated outside in the main arena insight to the trainers. "Camerupt, stay back. Tyranitar, Hitmonlee, go forward and protect Camerupt!" Ryu announced.
"Fine, Blastoise, use Hydro Pump to soak that fire Pokemon! Scyther, go in for a fury cutter on Tyranitar and Venusaur charge for Solar Beam!" Dalis announced, initiating the attack on Ryu.
"Lets show them what we came for, but lets make it exciting!" Ryu stated. "Tyranitar, Fire Blast that water to negate it. Hitmonlee rush foward to Scyther to stop its attack and use Focus Punch on it!" Tyranitar roared in acknowledgment and breathed hot flames to meet with Blastoises water, forcing both elements to create steam. As the steam was settling, Scyther rushed in to slash at Tyranitar, but Hitmonlee's speed met it faster than it had realized, nailing a hard punch right into the abdomen of the bug pokemon, causing damage and forcing it to back off for a moment.
"Argh...Fine, Blastoise use Skull Bash, Scyther take a moment to relax and Venusaur, go with Solar Beam!" Dalis shouted.
"Alright, Hitmonlee, get up front to take most of the blow then counter with Revenge! Tyranitar use Protect on Solar Beam, and Camerupt, go with Sunny Day!" Hitmonlee moved up front and took Skull Bash, then countered immediately with an attack following the heavy skull of Blastoise. Hitmonlee leaned back and kicked hard to the side of Blastoise's skull, sending it into the wall nearby and knocking it out cold due to the level of power that Ryu had in all his pokemon from nonstop training and fighting, not to mention the levels at which they were at..More than likely far beyond the levels that were seen in previous years. Tyranitar used Protect, shielding itself from Solar Beam. Then Camerupt focused and used Sunny Day, pushing fake sunlight into the area, upping the damage that fire attacks did.
Alright! I can use Solar Beam again now from the extra energy that Sunny Day is providing...But too bad Blastoise is out..I have to make this work. Dalis thought.
"Alright, Solar Beam again! Scyther use Quick attack!" Dalis cried out.
Ryu had already figured that this would happen and smirked. "No! Tyranitar use Torment, stop that move! Hitmonlee go with Mega Kick and Camerupt go with Focus Energy!" Tyranitar interupted the successful use of Solar Beam with Torment, while Hitmonlee receieved the Quick Attack with it barely doing any harmful damage and attacking with a Mega Kick to the abdomen at full force, sending Scyther crashing into Venusaur as Camerupt brought in energy from Sunny Day which was still affecting the room and by focusing its body.
"Argh, Scyther use Aerial Ace, Venusaur us Vine Whip!" Dalis commanded, feeling the pressure set in. Scyther dashed quickly and attacked Camerupt while Venusaur whipped Tyranitar. The type disadvantage from the grass attack caused Tyranitar to wince, but only slightly since it was far tougher than Venusaur, even if it had the advantage.
"Lets stop this playing around crap. Everyone back off and Camerupt use OVERHEAT!" Tyranitar and Hitmonlee moved away while Camerupts body began to fire up, huge amounts of fire and heat blasting from the small volcanos on its back. The attack hit Scyther and Venusaur as well as the grass and foliage from the themed battle room, causing immense damage as well as getting help from Sunny Day's effect. Both Pokemon were soon declared unable to go on as sprinklers were set off.
"Winner, Ryu!" The ref declared as he raised the flag that represented Ryu's side. Ryu called back his pokemon and kissed the pokeballs. Dalis soon arrived at his side after recalling his Pokemon back and held out his hand.
"Nice match, that was really close."
"No duh. That wasnt close at all kid, I was just messing around the first half..I could've just sent out Overheat right away at the beginning and took your entire team out.." Ryu said, walking past Dalis as he made his way back to the main arena.
"Wow..cocky guy.." Dalis said as he was directed to the nearest healing center. Ryu arrived in the main arena, being the first to finish his match and stood in the center, hearing applause and such from the near thousand members of the audience.
