Welcome to Gaia! ::

*turns to find cody* "Hurry battle your clone."

At the same time, the two look-a-likes called out their pokemon. “Go, Troy!” “Go, Froy!” At the same time, (0nce again) both of the Hitmonchans appeared. This was going to be tough… Without warning, Sammu called out, “Froy, use mach punch!” Froy raced up to Troy and punched with the same strength Troy had, and it did a good amount of damage. “What?! Troy, use ice punch!” Sammy yelled, eager to beat the living crapola out of her clone. Troy’s fist turned into a block of ice, and he slammed it into the side of Froy’s face, doing an amazing amount of damage. Froy would be out with just one hit, at this point… As long as it was a good hit. “Froy, use fire punch!” Sammu called out. Froy’s fist turned to blazing fire, and he hit Troy in the stomach, making him fall to his knees while grimacing. It did a very good amount of damage. “Troy; mega punch!” Sammy exclaimed, and Troy used all of his strength to power-up his fist. With a spectacular glow, Troy punched Froy in the jugular, and he was fainted. “Good job!” Sammy called, and both returned their pokemon.

For some odd reason, they continued to call out the same pokemon. “Go, Vixen!” “Go, Vexen!” Sammy’s Pidgeotto appeared, while Sammu only had a Pidgey. “Yes!” Sammy called; Sammu’s pokemon had not been able to level-up enough, yet. “Vixen, use steel wing!” Sammy called out. Vixen slammed into Vexen with his metal wings, making Vexen have only half of his original HP. “Vexen, use wing attack!” Sammu called out. Vexen hit with the winds caused by flapping his wings, doing an okay amount of damage to Vixen. “Return!” Sammy called to Vixen, but she didn’t mean in the way that he come back. Instead, she meant the attack. Vixen used the powerful bond that he and Sammy shared to defeat Vexen. “Alright! Awesome, Vixen!” Sammy called, and they both returned their pokemon.

At last, they called their final pokemon. “Go, Squirt!” “Go, Spirt!” Sammy released her Squirtle, while Sammu released a Wartortle. They were both at the same level, but Sammy had chosen to let Squirt remain at his smaller state. “Spirt, use iron tail!” Sammu said, and Spirt used his tail, which was now iron, to hit Squirt. It did a fair amount of damage. “Squirt, use bite!” Sammy engaged, balling her fists up. Squirt ran up to Spirt and bit down hard, also doing a fair amount of damage. “Use ice beam!” Sammu called; Spirt made a beam that hit Squirt in the chest, almost fainting him. This was Sammy’s only chance to have Squirt beat Spirt; she wanted to make it count. “Squirt! Use blizzard!” Sammy cried. She knew that Squirt had not tried this move yet; it was almost a little over his level. Squirt nodded, confident in his trainer, and conjured up a blizzard. The blizzard swarmed over Spirt and, with a bit of luck, fainted him. “No!!” Sammu cried, returning her pokemon and fleeing towards the back of the room. “Yes! Good job, Squirt. You deserve a rest.” Sammy praised her pokemon, returning him.

Maddy looked over as her clone, Connor, approached her. She didn't look to happy.
Maddy: "Is your new name not suiting you?"
Connor: "Damn straight! Everyone's been making fun of me for having a boy's name!!"
Maddy: "Connor is a unisex name. It can be guy and girl."
Connor: "Yeah right! I'm gonna kick your butt and steal your name!"
Maddy: "a** sounds sooo much better than butt..." -.-
Maddy sent out Blaze, and Connor sent out Scizor.
Maddy: "Wrong move. You still don't know your type match-ups."
Connor: "What are type match-ups?!"
Maddy: "Why must me clone be the definition of stupidity?"
Connor: "...?"
Blaze rushed forward, it's leg burning with fiery energy as it kicked Scizor hard in the stomach, sending the steel-armored bug into the cavern walls. Scizor took massive damage from the attack, it hit a major weak spot. Maddy smirked, this first Pokémon was a breeze. But it got slightly more frustrating as Scizor put itself to sleep, restoring itself from little to full health. Blaze smirked, it's whole body burst into flame as it rushed forward and slammed into Scizor, KO'ing the Pokémon but taking a decent amount of damage himself.
Blaze shook off the pain as his next opponent, Blastoise, appeared. The large turtle blasted Blaze with powerful torrents of water. By a small strand of HP, Blaze managed to hang on. He pounded the ground with enough force to cause a tremor to shake the battlefield, dealing massive damage to Blastoise. But his opponent shook off the blow and forced Maddy to recall Blaze as he fainted from a weak Water Gun attack. The next Pokémon Maddy sent out was Sai, who was itching for a good battle. Sai increased his attack power with Swords Dance, his scythes glinting brightly with only a fraction of their true sharpness. Blastoise retreated into its shell, preparing it's next move. Sai rushed forward and unleashed a devestating and critical Slash, its overall damage further increased by Sai's increased attack rate. Blastoise, even though it was panting from exhaustion, mustered up enough strength to unleash its Skull Bash, slamming its head into Sai's stomach. Sai was dazed for a few seconds as the wind was knocked out of his lungs, but he managed to pull himself back together to bring Blastoise down with Night Slash.
Connor sent out a ferocious-looking Charizard. The dragon-like Pokémon inhaled and then exhaled a powerful stream of white-hot flames. Sai cried out in pain as the flames licked his body. He fainted and Maddy replaced him on the battlefield with Squirtle. A gutteral laugh escaped from Charizard's jaws as it looked down upon Squirtle with utter amusement. The look quickly vanished from it face as Squirtle unleashed a terrifyingly powerful Hydro Pump. Charizard roared with fury, it rushed at Squirtle with full force, but missed and slammed into wall, leaving a hole that exposed electrical wires. Squirtle then started a Rain Dance, causing a mysterious rain to begin within the cave. Charizard shot a jet of fire at Squirtle, most of the flame extinguished before it could reach the tiny turtle. Squirtle received minimal damage and brought down Charizard with a power-packed Bubble Beam.
Connor seemed to be mad now, she threw out a Pokéball, which burst open to reveal a flash of brilliant white light and a Garchomp. The magnificent dragon roared, and a beautiful display of golden flames burst from its maw and engulfed Squirtle. Squirtle shook off the attack, for such a small Pokémon it was still raring to go. An icy burst escaped from its mouth, buffeting Garchomp with freezing energy. The great beast shook off the chilling attack and quickly put an end to Squirtle with Dragon Rage. Maddy sent out Gabite next, and both dragons stared eachother down. With a roar of determination, Gabite glowed with dragon fury and unleashed a deadly Draco Meteor. Garchomp roared with pain, and called upon its dragon blood and slashed Gabite. Gabite countered with a Dragon Claw of its own, taking down its evolved opponent.
Connor was looking nervous now, she sent out Empoleon. The great penguin Pokémon unleashed a terrifying blizzard, wiping the floor with Gabite. Maddy returned Gabite and sent out Rai, bright blue sparks flying from his yellow cheeks. He charged his body with a powerful electric current, and then unleashed the attack upon Empoleon in the form of a powerful Thunderbolt. Empoleon countered with a deadly Earthquake that shook the cave and dealt massive damage upon Rai. The lightning mouse was knocked over from the blast, but quickly got to his feet and recasted the Rain Dance that Squirtle had used previously. The rain didn't bother Empoleon as it rammed into Rai with Strength. Rai smirked slightly as it unleashed a terrifying Thunder, the powerful torrent of electricity guided to its target by the falling raindrops. Empoleon let out a screech of pain and crumpled to the floor in a mass of penguin and sparks.
Connor gulped, she returned Empoleon and sent out Magikarp. Maddy laughed. She knew it was an easy win from this point, so she recalled Rai and sent out her Magikarp as well, except she prefered to call him Superkarp. Magikarp splashed water at its shiny counterpart. The attack didn't seem to do anything, but Maddy knew better as she commanded Superkarp to use Flail. In a blinding gold blur, by Magikarp standards of course, Superkarp used Flail but missed and struck the electrical wires that had been revealed by Charizard's Giga Impact. One of the electrical wires burst from the wall and sparks flew upon Magikarp, frying the poor fish. By sheer luck, Superkarp had won! Maddy recalled her Pokémon, laughing.
Maddy: "Haha! Wow!"
Connor: "... Your Magikarp knows Thunderbolt?"
Maddy: "His name is Superkarp. And no, your Magikarp got shocked by electrical wires."
Connor: "How do I expect to win, when you have a Magikarp that knows Thunderbolt?!"
Maddy: "How do you expect to win anyways?!"
With a scream of frustration, Connor ran off. Maddy returned to the others.

"Thanks, im a little tired though from the battle so im gonna lay down for a few." *sits down to rest up*

Gunnar smirked as Ginji approached him with Dragonite flying by his side. "I see your Dragonair finally reached the level my Dragonite is at. Except mine is definitely stronger." the clone smiled as it reached for a darkened Ultraball that housed a Black Dragonite, fueled by Black Rare Candies. Ginji and Dragonite didn't even flinch at the appearance, it was obvious that Gunnar had met up with Kenny and corrupted his own Dragonite with the evil Rare Candies.

Gunnar's Dragonite grabbed onto Ginji's Dragonite and had them swirling into the sky. Attempting to break free, Dragonite attacked with a Dragon Claw to harm the opponent considerable. The other Dragonite attacked with an Outrage while Ginji's Dragonite rushed at the Black Dragonite with a Dragon Rush, sending the opponent flying into the boiling water below, and back into the Pokeball of Gunnar. "True training comes from hard work and determination. You fall short in both categories." Ginji lectured as Gunnar sent out his second Pokemon. Yellow Lucario.

Ginji recalled Dragonite as it looked tired from the intense battle with the Black Dragonite and sent out his own Lucario, who looked ready for battle as he had so many times before with the oddly colored fighter. His Lucario was strong, but Gunnar's was looking a bit...odd. As if its strength had doubled, or tripled since their last meeting. The two fighters took their stance and went into ExtremeSpeed mode to do battle. Each blow looked devestating on each party, but it looked as if Ginji's Lucario was the one taking the most damage. It let loose an Aura Sphere which the Yellow Lucario dodged and attacked with a powerful Aura Kick which sent Ginji's Lucario hurdling towards Earth. "No. Possible." Ginji stared in shock as Lucario's limp body lay on the ground before forcing itself back into its Pokeball.

"Maybe you should beat me before lecturing me about Ethics." Gunnar laughed maniacally while fondling his next Pokeball. The Yellow Lucario returned before an Aggron appeared in the cavern, shaking it with its roar. Ginji smiled as he had the Type Advantage this time as he called out Blastoise. Blastoise started with a powerful Surf attack that Aggron countered with a Metal Burst to deal double damage. Blastoise roared and held on with its Focus Band before attacking again with a Surf to end the Aggron's reign. Both Pokemon were returned to give birth to the next set of Pokemon.

Both Umbreon and Espeon appeared on both sides of the field. Changing the rule set in mid-battle was a fun tactic, although Steven would frown on it. This was war though. Ginji's Umbreon attacked Gunnar's Espeon with a Shadow Ball, doing extreme damage. Gunanr's Espeon attempted to attacked Ginji's with a Psychic, but Ginji's Umbreon blocked the attack. Gunanr's Umbreon then attacked Ginji's Umbreon with a Faint attack, causing his Espeon to retaliate with a Trump Card to knock out the enemy Espeon. Ginji's Umbreon disappeared and came out of the shadows to attack the enemy Umbreon. It lived to fight and retaliated with a Shadow Ball to knock Umbreon out. Espeon called on the power of the sun to illuminate the shadows and heal itself. Umbreon had no place to run as it used Swift to attack Espeon. Espeon howled in pain before attacking with a Signal Beam to do Umbreon in.

The final two Pokemon of the battle. Ginji kinda figured it would come to this. But he never expected what Pokemon would have to do battle. Two Pokemon left. One for each side. The shadow Ultra Ball at Ginji's side twitched with anticipation before exploding to reveal the Shadow Darkrai. Gunnar smiled before releasing his own Darkrai. The cloned one.

Ginji's Darkrai roared as it unleashed a Shadow Sky to cloak itself in darkness. Brother only in blood. You shall pay for your insolence. How dare you serve the enemy that has hurt our kind so much. Repent. Or be obliterated!

It is you who shall be obliterated! I fight for myself. And you are in my way. BROTHER The enemy legendary said snidely as it threw a Dark Void at Ginji's Shadow Darkrai. It missed. I doubt it would have worked anyways. Ginji's Darkrai attacked with a Shadow End to do major Super-effective damage against the non-shadow Pokemon and doing major damage to itself. The opponent's Darkrai used a Shadow Ball that was simply batted aside by Ginji's Darkrai who retaliated with a Shadow Rave to end the battle. Darkrai hid in the shadows before attacking again with a Shadow End to break apart the DNA of the clone.

Gunnar looked distraught as he grabbed his Pokeballs and teleported out with the other clones. Defeated. Badly. "We'll be back. Trust us." he smiled sinisterly as everyone of the Clone Team disappeared.

Sammy looked over at Mr. Ginji as he finished his battle. "Hey, Mr. Ginji! Nice battle!" She remarked, now stuffing an oreo into her mouth.

"No, thank you Reaper." Sammy replied, getting up and dusting her clothes off. "So, we've defeated our clones... now what?" Sammy asked, mostly directed towards Mr. Ginji.
