The Most Heated Battle Around!
Arwyn is pleased.
''A double battle, eh? Can't say I ever did one of those before.... sure. Let's give it a try.''
Cyan went to one of the battlefields, and pulled a couple of pokeballs out of his bag. He tossed them, and a blue ray came out both of them, transforming into a Larvesta and a Joltik. Both were ready for whoever Arwyn was about to release. Well, that's at least what they thought, you can't really blame them when they barely have any experience.
Arwyn headed over to the battlefield as well, and looked at the Pokémon Cyan sent out. He grabbed two of his Pokéballs and threw them. Out came a Klink raring with energy and a Magby with a little bit too much flame on his butt. They all looked ready for battle, as it has been a while.
"Alright, let's start! Lara, use String Shot and Tesla, use camouflage!" Lara spun around, and launched hundreds of fine webs out of her mouth, aiming at both opponents. Tesla analyzed his surroundings, that were covered with dirt and pebbles. He then began to change colors and even gain some small pebbles on his back. Tesla is now a Ground Type!
The string shot wraps up Sizzler and Ash. Arwyn has a plan though.
"Ash, burn through your strings with Ember! Sizzler, use charge and cut those strings!" Cutting through string shot was very important, as it immobilized Arwyn's Pokèmon. Still, he wasted time on breaking out. He should try and dodge the attack...
Cyan did not expect that. Part of his plan did rely on immobilizing them, so this was definitely a setback. He still had a plan up his sleeve though.
"Lara, use Sunny Day! Tesla, use Thunder Wave at that Magby!" Lara's 'horns' began to glow, as she looked up and closed her eyes. The clouds began moving out of the way, revealing the sun behind. This increased the temperature of the field slightly, but not as much as the last time since it was winter. Tesla, on the other hand, began shaking uncontrollably until he released small waves of electricity in the direction of the Magby.
''Ash, watch out! Sizzler, jump in front of him and take the thunder wave!'' The Klink sped in front of the Magby and took the thunder wave attack. He was now paralyzed, but Ash was saved.
''Ash, use Ember on that Joltik!'' Not only Cyan's Pokémon could benefit from the sun, so could Ash. Ash starts gathering a swirling ball of fire in its mouth before firing it at the Joltik. Thanks to the sunny day it's more powerful than it would be without the sun.
''Sizzler, stand by!''
The ball of flames collided with Tesla, but he didn't faint! Camouflage's type change allowed Tesla to barely hang on.
"Tesla, hang on a little longer, and use Spider Web! Lara, time to toast them with a Heat Wave!" Tesla quickly made a web and launched at his opponents not with the intent to slow them, but to keep them from fleeing or switching! Soon after, Lara's horns began glowing once more. But this time, it was with a certain passion. The air around her became hotter, and a Heat Wave was released, targeting anyone in front of her.
The spider web came around Magby and Klink and it seemed to have it's effect. Switching would be impossible now. The heat wave came in though, and distracted with the spider web, it hit both of them. Sizzler being a steel type and being weak to fire, and in the sun, it did a lot of damage. However, thanks to his charging out of the strings earlier, he managed to hold on just barely, with the boost to his special defense. Ash took the hit like a champ though, being resistant to fire type attacks.
''Not bad......'' Arwyn couldn't help but smile at this intense battle.
''Sizzler, use charge again and again!'' The small gear started spinning and charging electricity like crazy now. His special defense would go through the roof.
''Ash, use ember again, and target that troublesome Joltik!'' Again, Ash started gathering a hot ball of fire in its mouth and fired it at the Joltik.
Tesla, even if not weak to it, wouldn't be able to take another hit. He tried his best to dodge, but didn't make it. The fireball struck him, making him faint.
"Dang it, Tesla, come back!" A red ray of energy came out of the pokeball, and Tesla returned.
"OK, Max, it's your time to shine!" A large Pinsir came out of the other pokeball, staring menacingly into their next enemies. "Max, use Seismic Toss on that pesky Magby, and Lara, keep roasting both of them!" Lara's horns began to glow once more for another Heat Wave, and Max was charging like there was no tomorrow at the Magby, ready to hurl him in the air with her pincers.
''A strong pinsir, huh? I don't know if you have more Pokémon than this, but let's keep it as a 3V3. I don't have more than 3.'' The Pinsir proceeded to grab the Magby, hurl him up, and then down, causing damage, and the Larvesta was about to unleash a heat wave. He wasn't about to let that happen.
''Ash, use feint attack!'' Ash pretended to look for something around Volcarona, avoiding the heat wave while doing so. In the Larvesta's confusion, he attacked with a kick in it's direction. Unfortunately, Sizzler wasn't so lucky. He took the heat wave and all the charging wasn't enough. Soon, he lay on the ground, all defeated,
''Oh no, Sizzler! Come back, you did your best.'' Arwyn looked concerned.
''I have one more Pokémon. Go, Celery!'' A Scraggy, looking ready to brawl.
''Use Sand Attack on the Pinsir!'' Celery began kicking up sand from the ground, and kicked it to Pinsir.
Max was not happy about it. Not one bit. Not only her attack did barely anything, she got sand kicked in her face?!? Lara was fine, as Feint Attack isn't particularly strong, much less coming from a Magby.
"Lara, use another Heat Wave! Max, Focus Energy! Max? MAX!" She wasn't listening. With only pure rage in her mind, she charged at the Scraggy, ready for a Close Combat. But with her accuracy penalized and being blinded by rage, only Arceus knows what she will end up hitting.
''Heh. Keep using heat wave, and it'll get easier to predict where it will hit. Ash, use leer on that Larvesta!'' the Magby comes close to Lara's face, while walking through the heat wave, clearly taking damage, but his eyes are glowing red and looks very intimidating. You almost forget that Ash is in serious pain right now. On the other side, Pinsir is disobeying it's trainers commands, and she charges forward for a strong move. Celery isn't scared though, as the accuracy has gone down immensely.
''Celery, dodge it and use headbutt!''
Leer couldn't do any damage, but surely made Lara very uncomfortable. Enough for her to drop her defenses. As for Max, the headbutt struck her at full force.
"This isn't working, I got to switch things up. Lara, use String Shot and wrap them up! Max, knock it off and use Close Combat on the Magby!" Lara quickly made a web and threw it on her opponents to decrease their speed. Max was still angry, but decided to listen to Cyan and use that anger to attack the Magby even if she might miss.
At this range, string shot could not miss and it hit Magby and tied him up. The Pinsir came storming at him with close combat, which would surely take him out if it hit. Arwyn had to do something....
''Celery, use more Sand Attack on the Pinsir!'' Celery followed suit and jumped over Pinsir, then quickly grabbed some sand and thew it in her face. This would hopefully give Ash enough time to escape the thread. Magby escaped and wasn't happy. He looked really wounded. One more hit would do it.
''Ash, use smog on that Larvesta!'' Ash opened his mouth, and a thick, black fog came out of it's mouth. It was hard to see what happened at first, due to the fog.
The Smog connected with Lara, and although it didn't do much damage, she was poisoned. Max on the other hand, got into another fit, and seemed to be charging at the Scraggy again with a Quick Attack. This meant that Lara couldn't just use Heat wave, as it would likely heat Max as well.
"Lara, quickly use Ember on the Magby and try to finish him off!" Lara charged a small flame around her, and threw it in the Magby's direction. As for Max, she was hopelessly charging at Scraggy.
The ember hit Ash, and unfortunately, that was the end for him. Arwyn wasn't afraid though, as he saw the poisoned Larvesta just barely holding on.
''Ash, come back! You did great!'' Arwyn needed that Larvesta gone.
''Celery, finish of that Larvesta with Feint attack!' Scraggy ran behind the Larvesta and seemingly vanished, before kicking it from behind.
Lara flew a small distance before landing. She tried her best to get back up, but it was too much. Leer and a Dark move wouldn't be enough, as she has had quite a bit of training, but a Critical Hit could.
"Dang it! Lara, return!" Cyan pointed the Pokeball at her, to which she returned.
"Max, it's all up to you now! Finish that Scraggy with Close Combat!" It should be more than enough to KO him, but the accuracy drops are still there, so it's down to luck.
''Celery, dodge it.'' Celery jumped around the Pinsir who kept trying to hit him, but couldn't due to the amount of sand attack's that were used on it.
''Celery, use headbutt, and make it quick!'' Celery too saw that this battle was already over, and he prepared his head and then rammed it into Pinsir.
If Max wasn't pissed before, she was now. It didn't matter what Cyan tried to say, she couldn't listen to him. She tried a Last-Ditch effort Seismic Toss, without realizing that it was a rock... That thing came crashing down on her, knocking herself out.
"Max... What did I tell you. If you would at least listen. Come back for now, have a rest. Arwyn, great battle by the way! gotta train my gys before the next time. Trust me, you won't be as lucky!"
''Come back, Celery." Scraggy does a dance of victory before returning to the pokeball.
"We'll see about that! Anyway, class is starting soon. We should head over."
"Oh shoot! I forgot about class! We'll catch up later!" Cyan then proceeded to hurry to his next class.
