"No!" she barked, clutching the two remaining spheres in her fist. "Ludicolo! Try another Ice Beam!" she demanded. It wasn't going to take it again. Lairon let out a mighty roar and dashed forward to his opponent, rearing for another Headbutt. After realizing that it was only being fought for capture, the behemoth was really going to kick it up a notch. He bowed his head low, roaring into the rocks he tredded on.
Ludicolo felt the wind suddenly knocked out of him, the Ice Beam that was being prepared fizzled out. His eyes widened and the Carefree Pokemon slammed into the ground, getting a face full of rubble. Weak arms supported him as he made his way to stand back up. After a bit of a struggle, Ludicolo managed to land back on his two feet. Continuing his intentions, he opened his mouth. A blast of cold air and ice aimed for Lairon's head once more. The behemoth pushed as hard as it could against the beam, its massive legs pushing into the ground. Anymore and it was likely the ground would collapse beneath both combantants. Frost and flakes of snow began to cover his face plate, and a cold feeling enveloped him.
"Try it again!" she yelled, pressing the button on one of the orbs, enlarging it for her grasp. She flung it through the air, watched it connect with Lairon and her face lit up when the red light disappeared into the Great Ball. With one left, Rena really pleaded that Lairon would stay inside.

"Sounds great," Ky said, looking over at Sting, who was still busy testing the gym's plants. "Sting! Quit goofin' around. You're up!" Ky shouted. Hearing his trainer's voice, Sting flew promptly to Ky's side, hovering calmly as he waited for his opponent to appear. "Ya know, I should be the one impressed. I'm just a starting trainer. You're younger than me and you're already a Gym Leader," Ky said. "Like I said before, it'll be an honor. You ready Sting?" Ky smiled when he saw Sting get into a fighting stance, his forearms poised to strike.

"Turn the attack against her! Psychic!" Without hesitation, Oracle cast a quick glare at her opponent, both of their bodies glowing in an aura the shade of a dark yellow-brown. With a little effort --as the Miltank was resisting somewhat-- the Psychic-type was able to freeze Tara in place, and force the Miltank to slam her fist into her own jaw, causing her to stagger backwards a little. "Grr... stupid Psychic attacks," Whitney muttered to herself. "Okay, Defense Curl-Rollout combination, now! Make sure you hit her this time!" Tara backed up a bit and curled her body into a ball, tightening all the muscles in her body, and began to roll forward at Oracle like a pinball. She gained speed quickly, but Oracle wasn't moving. In point of fact, she had her eyes closed, and seemed to be anticipating being struck, but all of a sudden--
"Teleport!"
--she was gone, leaving Tara rolling around aimlessly for a moment, before stopping and returning to her side, partly out of fear she'd be attacked. "Jeez, Nina!" Whitney called over, "You could have a little couth and let me be able to hit, you know!" Nina laughed, sensing that her sister was joking-- well, for the most part anyway. "It wouldn't be a challenge if I did that, you know!" she called back. "Oracle, come back! Attack that Miltank with a few Psybeams!" It was no more than a second or two after the girl had issued her command that the Alakazam reappeared in front of her, with her arms outspread, the spoons she carried crossed in an X. From them shot a multicolored beam of energy that seemed to distort reality as it cut through the air, aimed straight for its target. Two more followed immediately afterward. Whitney didn't issue any command to her Pokemon, and in fact waited until the Psybeam attacks were but several feet away.
"Tara, Bide! Show Oracle what it's like to have HER attack turned on her!" This elicited a gasp from Nina. Happy to have a command, the Miltank centered herself and allowed the beams to strike her body. She was fortunate enough not to be debilitated by a Confusion status --or be knocked out for that matter-- as she rushed to her opponent at a breakneck speed, slamming into Oracle's body with a full-force tackle, returning double the damage that had been inflicted. She ran back toward Whitney after performing her task.
Oracle wasn't expecting that sort of reaction at all. She had no time to prepare, and was simply helpless as she was struck. She felt an incredible sense of being overwhelmed as her body took on all of the damage at once-- the result felt similar to being crushed under the weight of a Steelix.
"Gah, no! Oracle, get up and Recover!" Nina commanded, getting nervous. The Alakazam lay on the ground for a moment, its frail body slowly recuperating from receiving such a tremendous strike, but she eventually rose. Extending both of her arms out above her head, making her body seem to form a Y, Oracle concentrated, creating small yellow-brown orbs all around her, absorbing them into her body a few moments later, recovering her health back.
"Grrah. You won't get another chance to do that! Tara, Hyper Beam attack!"

The last Great Ball landed on the dirt floor rocking from side to side violently. With a delayed ring the light dimmed and the Great Ball remained still. Lairon was caught!

"Shiva use Defense Curl then go into Ice Ball! I want you to stay as far away from that Golem as you can!" While Shiva's attacks would be effective the rock type move with its attack doubled with Defense Curl would seriously hurt his pokemon. Not wanting to get crushed Shiva curled up and managed to freeze herself over before the Golem smashed into her sending the Sealeo flying through the air and smashing down onto the ground. Lucky for her the ice protected her from most of the damage. Freezing herself over again Shiva started rolling in an attempt to get out of the Golem's way.
"Oh well it looks like this is turning into a rolling battle. The Golem trying to chase down the Sealeo. Lets see who makes it out of this!"
All around the arena both of the pokemon went each of there forms becoming bigger and bigger as they went. Neither of them were very fast pokemon and so they were both colliding with each other through out the run. However all things had to come to an end and soon the Golem's attack ran out and the large rock came to a stop on his side of the arena panting some. Its rocky hide was covered in scrapes from the attacks. Shiva though kept on rolling, she had started later and that ment that she had this one chance for an attack. Turning back the seal pokemon headed streight for the Golem. Seeing the on coming ice ball the Golem did its best to dodge it but due to its slow speed it was hit head on by the final stage of Shiva's Ice Ball attack. Upon impact the ice surrounding Shiva broke off and the seal pokemon landed hard on the ground and had a few bruise's from the Golem's impacts but otherwise seemed mostly fine. It was another story for the Golem though, when it had been hit it the large pokemon had fallen.
The arena was silent for a bit as they waited to see if the Golem would get up. After a moment the large pokemon pushed itself up and stood for a moment before falling back to the ground.
"Well it looks like after a long tough battle Golem is unable to battle. Sealeo and its trainer Dante are the winner!"

"Ack!" Mitsu held up her arms in defense, "Who mean that wasn't a joke?!" Edward laughed, "No, no. It was. How about I treat you to lunch anyways?" Mitsu breathed out a sigh of relief, "Sounds good," she said with a light smile. Continuing along the beaten path the two exchanged Pokenav numbers. "So what were you doing half way down the cliff?" he asked. "I fell and cut my leg," Mitsu said pointing to the wrapped wound. Wait. If she had a wound that meant that she'd have trouble walking right? Quickly unwrapping the cloth she looked down to discover that there were no traces of a wound being there at all. "What the . . ." she muttered feeling the smooth skin over it.
"Something wrong?" Ed asked looking back. He had gone up ahead oblivious to the fact that Mitsu had stopped. "Oh nothing," Mitsu said casting the bloody cloth to the side. "You were saying?"
"Uh," he said trying to recall what he was talking about before discovering that Mitsu had gone missing. "Oh yeah. Your Pokenav," he said handing her the red device. She pocketed it before changing the subject. "So, you never told me where you're from."
"The one and only Mossdeep of course," he said with a slight grin. Mitsu blinked. "Mossdeep? But I don't remember you."

As soon as that was announced the crowd errupted in chears and there was the sound of token's being exchanged. Shiva managed to move her body over to where Dante was standing. Bending down he pet the seal pokemon on the head happily. " I dont know what has gotten into you but I am sure glad you came out. Hearing Dante's comments Shiva barked happily, enjoying the compliments and the pets on her head. "All right I need to put you away and get you healed up." That being said he recalled the happy seal into her pokeball.
Just as he was putting it back into his belt Leon came up behind him and clapped him heartily on his back. "Good job kid! But your job isn't over quite yet. They are going to change the arena into a random enviornment setting and see if anyone else wants to challange you to a battle. Oh yeah, you earned quite a bit on that battle." Reaching for the small bag tied onto his belt Leon handed it to Dante. "Thats fifty coins right there. If you win this next battle there will be more to come." Clapping him on the back one more time before going back to the stands.
Opening the bag Dante stared at the bright coins happily and quickly put them into his coin case before tossing the bag asside. Bending down so that he was eye level with Kenny he whispered to him. "See if you can't find anymore coins in the stands. I want to be sure you are recovered from helping me before I use you in another battle little guy." Looking a bit disappointed but understanding Kenny did as he was told and disappeared into the crowd.
"All right, if there is someone else who wants to challange the winner they should come down now and name there terms!!" The announcer said in a chearful tone.
The crowd started murmering for a bit before a young looking guy in a black sweatshirt and nice looking jeans jumped into the arena. He had very tan skin and dark hair and looked very confident as he walked over to the announcer. "Yeah, I'll take on pretty boy over there." He said with a confident smirk on his face.
"Dont leave yet people it looks like we are going to have a battle. What is your name and the terms."
"My name is Darius and I would like a double battle, two pokemon limit on the water arena. That is if that is all right with you my fine looking announcer girl."
Swooning a bit but recovering well the announcer nodded. "All right it looks like its going a two on two battle in the water arena! Place your bets now! Our winner of the last match Dante or the challanger Darius." DANTE'S COINS 53/14,999

Both the Houndour and the Phanpy were rather spent at the time; although the battle had thus far been brief, it had been pretty intense for the two. Now, they glared each other down, watching one another with a wary eye and trying to catch their breath. Daemyn couldn't help but show a bit of cockiness; he knew how this battle would turn out. Of course, that was no reason to let his guard down. He wasn't very much in favor of getting hit by one of those heavy Take Downs again. The Phanpy, on the other hand, had really enjoyed this battle and its challenge, although she was feeling the strains of it quite a bit.
She, not liking to wait much longer, charged once more. Her fatigue almost seemed to amplify the power of her last, desperate attack -- Flail. With a colossal amount of effort, she messily attacked Daemyn with her dense body, trunk, feet, everything. The Houndour, caught by surprise, took the attack at first, but began to just as desperately spray out fireballs from his mouth, trying to push back the unrelenting Phanpy. M.A. herself had to dodge one of his Ember attacks. For a while, it seemed that this was a copy of the wrestling match they had yesterday, save for a bit more rampaging and fire.
Finally, though, it just seemed too much for the Phanpy, and she was thrown to the side with one particularly strong fireball. She tried to push herself up, tried, tried -- but was unable to. Giving a defeated sigh, the little elephant just lied on the ground with a bit of a lop-sided smile; that had indeed been the battle she wanted, and she would very much like to come with this girl and her Pokemon and get even stronger, so that there would be even more good battles.
A triumphant Daemyn trotted back to M.A. She recalled him promptly after a few warm words of praise. Then, she stepped forwards to the Phanpy, kneeling so that she would be on its level. She rummaged through her bag for just a second before placing a Pokeball in front of her, on the ground. "Would you really like to come with us? We'd love to have you, but really, it's your choice," she murmured softly, patting the Long Nose Pokemon very gently.
Gingerly but without more than two moments' deliberation, fighting the aches that ailed her trunk, the Phanpy pushed the Pokeball's button herself.

Not really quite sure what it ment by, water arena Dante just stoond in his trainer's box. It was a good thing to, because suddenly a small fence appeared around it and he found himself being lifted up into the air. Across from him Darius grinned as his box was lifted up as well, the announcer girl had gone over to a small glass box that Dante never noticed before. Suddenly floodgates seemed to be open and the arena started to flood over. Frowning Dante wished that he could use Shiva this fight because the seal pokemon would have been of great help here. Fingering Levi's ball he debated weither or not to send the young pokemon out. Worring his bottom lip as he thought he finall came to a conclusion grabbing another pokeball he waited for the arena to stop filling up and hoped this would work. After the arena had filled to about ten feet of water the announcer started speaking again.
"All right it looks like we are done so lets get this battle started! Both of you send out both of your pokemon at the same time. Three! Two! One!"
At the start Darius and Dante tossed out both of there pokemon. However when they were done only three splashes could be heard and only one could be seen. The one that was out was Dante's chearful looking Bahamut who hovered easily over the water's surface.
"All right! Even though there are four pokemon out we can only see one and it the formar winner Dante's Vibrava! I wont reveal what other exciting pokemon have been released so not to give away the surprise!"
"Levi I dont know what is down there but do your best to dodge all of there attacks. I just want you to distract them.!" Dante called down into the water and hoped the small Mudkip had heard him.
"Dharma leap out of the water and grab that Vibrava and bring it down with you in a Constict attack! Spikes use your Poison Sting on what ever other pokemon is down there." Darius ordered from his side of the arena. Immediatly red tenticles sprug out of the water and wrapped around Bahamut and did there best to try to drag her under the water. While Dante couldn't see under water he just hoped that Levi was doing all right.
"Bahamut combine your Crunch and Toxic attack and dont let go until he lets go!" Glancing over at her trainer Bahamut gave him a weird look before doing as she was told. Filling her mouth with Toxic she then clamped her strong jaws around whatever was wrapped around her. Even though the pokemon was underwater you could hear its screech of pain, but to its credit it didn't let go, in fact it used Bahamut's distraction and dragged the pokemon down under the water. Under water Levi was fairing pretty well actually, the fin on the top of her head was very sensitive to water and it allowed her to feel where attacks were coming from. Swimming every way she could to avoid the oncoming Poison Stings from the strange spiky fish.

Well, sending out Kakuna would be a major waste now wouldn't it? The boy thought as he envisioned the cocoon being thrashed around by Ky's Beedrill. Nope, don't want that at all.
With a flick of his wrist the Gym Leader released into the air his newly evolved Butterfree. "Let's start this off with Confusion!" Bugsy ordered. Beedrill is part Poison so this will be something to snack on.
The butterfly's multi tinted red eyes flashed a rainbow of colors, blasting an concentrated assortment of hues at the bee.

Poochy yapped suddenly. His fur bristled. June jumped in surprise. Then she looked around cautiously.
"Hello." June screamed in surprise. The cloaked man came up to her and smiled a curled, evil grin. However, this time, his fingers were bandaged, as if slit by his Seviper's Iron Tail.
"What do you want now?" June asked coolly, hiding her fear from the strange man. She had decided long ago that she would call him Mr. M, for Mysterious.
"I once again challenge you to a battle." Mr. M held out a Pokeball in his wrapped, twisted fingers.
June gulped, Poochy snarled menacingly. He barked and growled. Mr. M let out a murderous smile and kicked Poochy, sending the small wolf-like creature to his side. June knew what she had to do.
"I accept."

Rena smiled and looked down at Kilik. "We caught him," she said with a sigh. For a moment, she pondered exactly how she was going to get him out of the cave. He was too heavy for her, and she was sure none of her Pokemon could do it. Maybe one of his? She glanced over at Ludicolo; he was huffing and puffing, too tired to do much else. Taking his Pokeball, Rena recalled Kilik's Pokemon and tucked the ball into his jacket. There was a flash of light to signify that Lairon had been teleported to Kilik's home.
"What am I going to do...?" she sighed, crossing her arms. Staring into his face, the girl thought about that single time he kissed her forehead about an hour ago. A light blush appeared on her face. "His Scizor would be likely to rip me to shreds if I asked her to carry him." The girl paced back and forth, thinking of any hope to get him out of here. Glancing at his sleeve, Rena took note that it had stopped bleeding. Crouching down, she ran her fingers along his belt, then removed a ball. "Weezing!" she called, throwing it up.
At the eruption of the orb, Weezing came out to play. He glanced about his surroundings and then gasped at Kilik's state. Tears streamed down his face at the blink of an eye and loud wails escaped him. The Poison-type glared at Rena now, thinking it was her fault. "Why would I hurt him?" she glared right back, "Look. He's really hurt. You'll need to carry him." Slowly, Rena pulled Kilik up and onto her shoulder. Lucky for her, Weezing hovered a little lower to the ground for her to place the boy onto him. Kilik's injured arm dangled in the space between the three spheres. Weezing floated higher up, with little trouble. His mind flashed to when Kilik had climbed on him when he was just a Koffing back in the Game Corner. He was much smaller and weaker then; Kilik was no problem now. The Poison Gas Pokemon looked at Rena, wondering what to do now.
"The Pokemon Center outside will be able to airlift him to a bigger hospital," she explained, walking towards the way she had come in, motioning for Weezing to follow, "You won't have to carry him long."

Following the sulfuric scent, Nitro brought his trainer to the region of Hoenn in no time, the constant flying really strengthening his endurance. Littleroot City zipped by, as did Petalburg. The Charziard was reminded of his heated battle with Norman and his trainers, a particular Togetic proving to be quite a thorn in his side before the final fight.
"Agh, Nitro, you're heading west!" Mike yelped, grabbing hold of the Pokemon's horns and turning him in the right direction. "We want to go northeast!" The boy laughed, he needed to brush up on his navigational skills badly.
In a few more minutes time of soaring, the two descended to the little town of Verdanturf. With the usual landing spiral, Nitro stiffened his wings and brought them down gently. "Another happy landing." Mike said to his Pokemon, patting him on the head thankfully, still perched atop the Charizard. He surveyed the town, it was tiny, even smaller than Lavaridge. "Well, now all we need to do is find mister Ramano."
"Do you happen to mean Mr. Ranmo?" A middle aged woman asked with a gentle voice. "If so he lives in that house right near the Pokemon Center." With a pale finger she pointed to a two story red bricked building. An elaborate door decorated the front side, seemed like a really nice place.
"Thank you miss." He nodded his head towards the house, signaling for his Pokemon to bring them there. Nitro trotted off, his tail swishing with each step. When they reached the fancy door, both Mike and Nitro knocked, the boy hanging off the side of his Pokemon awaiting a response.

Upon hearing the door knock, Mrs. Ranmo tucked her scissors into her apron and patted her daughter on the head. "Your trim will continue in a moment sweetie." Leaving the kitchen and walking through the living room, she waved to her husband. He was deeply engaged in a conversation with a rather large man. He was very round at the middle and his suit barely fit - the button looked as if it were about to burst. None-the-less, the brown suit and yellow tie looked good on the man. His face was accented with large cheeks and a very large and bushy mustache. Neither man paid attention to Judith Ranmo as she passed.
Her slender fingers wrapped around the handle of the door and she opened it, gasping at the sight of the Charizard. "Oh MY HEAVENS!" she stumbled back, placing a hand on her chest and breathing heavily. "Not everyday I see one of them!" she looked at the boy who was with the lizard, "May I help you?" she asked, placing a hand on her hip.
Both Joeseph and his companion leaned in to look closer at the door. Their mustaches twitched in unison.

Mike was so surprised at Mrs. Ranmo's surprise that he himself flailed and fell off his Pokemon perch. Nitro also faltered a tad, almost forgetting he wasn't a small Charmander anymore. "Sorry ma'am, I forget that some people aren't as used to the big lug as I am." The boy said as he quickly got up and bowed apologetically. "I'm here to see Mr. Ranmo, I heard he could help me obtain an Omanyte fossil." Mike noted the various expensive items in the house and decided a six foot plus dragon would not be at home in here and recalled him.
