Chapter 67: VS. Abomasnow II! Part 1
As it's pace began to speed up, the rusty, mahogany colored drill pressed on down the path toward Diamond and his Pokemon. Moistening his lips, Diamond studied the drill closely as each of his Pokemon awaited for a command; that is, all except Ronny who seemed to be fascinated at the alarming revolutions per minute of the drill. The little Riolu darted aimlessly towards the drill, his arms in the air happily and his nose running consistently.
With the utmost concern, Diamond shouted, "Everyone! Go get Ronny!"
With that said, the remaining five Pokemon set out. Trident, the dubbed leader of this mission, looked back to each of his fellow party mates and communicated with them a plan for retrieving Ronny and successfully stopping the mighty power of this drill headed their way. After the short conversation, Trident pointed his clawed fin forward and the Pokemon re-set out.
Now leading the pack was Samurai, who he used his elbow blades in an attempt to weaken the rotating drill. The drill's drill speed was quick, but the recurrent Psycho Cut's managed to slow down the drill every now and then. Teaming up with Samurai, Dexter darted on all fours and sprang up to the top of the drill after bouncing off the Gallade's head.
"Hey!" One of the Grunts operating the drill shouted as the Pachirisu entered the cockpit of the mechanism.
"Grab that little rodent!" The other Grunt said as both of them dove toward Dexter, but ended up colliding with one another and bumping heads.
Becoming more excited and jittery, Dexter pounced on top of both Grunts' head, shocking them each time his feet came in contact with their craniums. Dexter then observed the steering wheel of the drill and hopped up, holding on to it. Unfortunately, Dexter was not intelligent enough to understand how to drive the drill, so he ended swerving to the left and crashing the drill the western wall. However, the power of the drill kept it steamrolling and dig another hole in the wall.
Seeing as how Dexter made a bad situation out of a good situation, Pilot valiantly flew in and snatched up exhilarated Pachirisu and brought him to safety beside Diamond who was now in commander mode.
"Rose, by the looks of it that drill is made out of steel. Use Flamethrower now! Trident, go in and save Ronny!" Diamond clenched his fists as he looked down at Dexter who, in return, looked up at him, "Don't give me that look."
Rose elegantly trotted to the rear end of the drill and halted a few feet away. By now, the Grunts up in the cockpit noticed the Skuntank and hopped off before the Flamethrower was unleashed. Rose opened her mouth, inhaled deeply, and then exhaled a flaming fury upon the backside of the mechanism. Parts of the drill were slowly wearing and tearing open, causing the drill to slightly collapse and falter.
In the meantime Trident dove in and save Ronny who was just about ready to approach the actual drill portion of the machine. The Empoleon held Ronny tightly in his grasp and carried him back to safety.
Now that things were looking up, Diamond decided to get each of his Pokemon re-involved with completely destroying the drill. Along with Samurai slicing and dicing at the actual drill and Rose burning the back of the drill, Diamond began the last portion of his plan.
"Pilot, Ancient Power! Trident, Drill Peck! Dex, Swift! Ronny, Bullet Punch!"
Pilot flapped his clear wings rapidly before buzzing out an audible tone. A large boulder shrouded in a lime green aura appeared in front of the Yanmega and slammed into the shield of the drill, denting it severely. Pilot continued this assault as the other Pokemon joined in. Trident's beak grew considerably longer as the Empoleon launched his body towards the machine and pierced his powerful beak through the metallic exterior. Dexter flung his tail back and forward happily as he fired an array of golden, magical stars at the shield. And, finally, Ronny's fists slowly transformed into steel fists as the Riolu sprinted towards the drill and repeatedly and intensely punched more craters and dentures into the drill.
The end result was a success. The drill toppled over on its side and slowly came a complete stop before smoke dispersed out of a chimney near the top of the machine.
Each of Diamond's Pokemon returned to his side as he stared across the cave, which was about a mile, and looked dead into the eyes of several hundred Neo Team Rocket members, including the head honcho Pluto herself.
Shaking her head, Pluto stepped forward, placing on her brown cloak and smoothly topping her head with the hood. Her pale eyes stared at Diamond as she said coldly, "I must say... I am impressed with your Pokemon's physical strength. It is apparent that you've grown stronger since infiltrating my fort near Snowpoint City."
Diamond shifted his mouth and silently thanked Pluto for her recognition of his obvious skill in combat, "Enough of your commentary Pluto. This has to end now. I know your reasoning behind all of this. You think you can hide your inner most thoughts and let them go unheard? No. Not this time. I know about you wanting to bring your grand--"
"Unleash the Abomasnow Army!"
Diamond tilted his head confused, "...say what!?"
Almost on cue, the walls of the caves were burst open by an enormous fleet of raging Abomasnow. The giant snow beast Pokemon all lined up, facing Diamond and his Pokemon who were surely outnumbered and outmatched greatly. Diamond bit his lip and shook his head, unable to believe his luck and the reinforcements Neo Team Rocket were lucky to have. Had this been a regular fight, Diamond could have taken down about five or six Abomasnows. Yeah, try hundreds.
"Oh... my... gosh." Diamond's jaw dropped as he saw the hundreds of Abomasnow crowd the entire western side of the artificial cave. It was as if Diamond had exactly no chance, "Great, I'm basically screwed. Ugh, real life blows. I've got to do this by myself which is ironic. The time I actually need help, I have no--"
Just then, Dawn, Roark, and Wake appeared beside and around Diamond and his Pokemon.
"...help?" Dawn said, looking at Diamond from the corner of her eye, "You didn't think you would get all the fun now, would you? That just wouldn't be right. You've held the spotlight long enough. It's time that you shared it."
Diamond chuckled and then looked to Wake, "Whoa... Neptune?"
"Ahhh!" Wake disrupted Diamond, "Wake. Crasher Wake. Neptune is no more. Never, ever again."
Roark nodded, "Yes, we were successful in saving Crasher Wake and Fantina. Two of Neo Team Rocket's main core has been demolished, Diamond. Anything is possible."
Diamond nodded as he re-focused his attention on the Abomasnow, "Well, there's our opponents over there. A never ending chain of Abomasnow. You start to think... does she clone those things or what? Because nobody has that much time to breed--"
"Shut up!" Dawn said, becoming annoyed with Diamond's rambling as she took out all six of her Pokeballs she had with her, "Go! Pyra! Queen! Tater! Penny! Peep! And... Tiara!"
"Tiara?" Diamond questioned Dawn as her Infernape, trash cloak Wormadam, Chatot, Happiny, Drifblim, and Vespiquen all were released, "When did you get a Vespiquen?"
"Caught a Combee a while back. They were overloading Sandgem Town and I took care of them. Ended up catching the only female out of all those male Combees."
Roark released his Aerodactyl as Wake released his Quagsire. Both Rampardos and Floatzel, their main Pokemon, were obviously still warn out from their earlier battle, but the two wanted to put in as much help as they could.
Each of the Pokemon lined up side by side as they face the opposing, and nearing, Abomasnow.
Diamond's main concern was for Ronny. Was he risking a lot putting such a young Pokemon in this type of battling scenario? Probably so. But Ronny was a member of his team and with that comes the responsibility of growing up quickly. In a way, Ronny represented Diamond. The young Riolu was somewhat immature and obviously young. However, within himself was a great, untapped power waiting to be awakened at any moment. Also, due to the current conditions in not only the region, but the world, Ronny has to grow up and mature quickly, as did Diamond when his father Riley left him and his mother to fend for themselves in Twinleaf Town. Realizing this, Diamond smiled for a moment, now fully trusting Ronny and learning to not so much be worrisome when it comes to looking after Ronny as his father does not look after him anymore.
It seemed like just the other day Ronny had hatched from his Egg in Diamond's arms. They grow up so fast.
