Pokémon League

Whew, that was a tedious adventure.

- Back already?

Remember we’re dealing with time travel here, while we’re not linked via the communicators our relative timelines can differ.

- Uh…

From my point of view it’s been over a week, from the view of the eggheads behind me it’s been a day, and for you it’s been an hour or so?

- Something like that.

Anyway, the team have made some progress. That little mishap revealed the machine’s secondary function. Though we doubt it was by design but it could be responsible for what’s happening near you, but not nearly to that degree. We’re still missing something.

- So…

Keep battling the Elite Four.

- Right.

Are you quite done, young man? That’s a fancy looking cellphone but we’re not here to chit-chat, we’re here to battle!

- Yes, of course.

Go Altaria!

- Go Bester!

- Ice punch!

Dragon pulse!

With a frosty fist, Bester punches altaria square in the face, knocking it out cold.

Go Flygon!

- Ice punch!

Dragon pulse!

Bester uppercuts flygon in the jaw, flygon flops into a heap next to altaria.

Go Flygon!

- Ice punch!

Earthquake!

An icy right hook from Bester grounds flygon, racking it up next to the other unconscious dragons.

Go Salamence!

- Ice punch!

Dragon rush!

Bester gives salamence a frozen left hook to the cheek. After salamence backs off it begins to glow and slams into Bester at full speed.

- Ice punch!

Drake uses a full restore on salamence before Bester reverses it’s effect with a single icy punch.

- Ice punch!

Drake prepares another full restore, taking exception to this Bester slaps it out of Drake’s hand.

- Ice punch!

Dragon rush!

Bester bops salamence on the nose, salamence collapses to the floor.

Go Kingdra!

- Bester return! Go Bella!

Surf!

A tidal wave crashes down onto Bella as she leaves her pokéball.

- Toxic!

Ice beam!

Bella sprays a noxious goop all over kingdra’s face. Kingdra shoots a bright blue beam at Bella, freezing her solid. Bella’s poison does seem to be taking effect.

- Bella! Bella no!

- Go Rickert!

- Substitute!

Yawn!

Rickert generates a crude copy of himself while kingdra yawns loudly in his face. Kingdra starts to truly suffer from the poisoning.

- Body slam!

Dragon pulse!

Kingdra fires a pulse of dragonfire at Rickert, shattering his substitute. Rickert leaps over kingdra and slams down onto it belly first before falling asleep. The poisoning continues to eat away at kingdra.

- Body slam!

Dragon pulse!

Rickert continues to snooze despite being roasted in dragonfire.

- Body slam!

Dragon pulse!

A further roasting wakes Rickert up, using the full force of his weight he crushes kingdra’s head against the arena wall.

You did good, kid. Go on, you’re ready for the Champion.
