Chapter 42: Ch 28: Wes VS Erika part 1

(Hello guys. Sorry for the long wait. As I finished this chapter it somehow got deleted. Then as I was half finished. My phone sroped working and it wasn't possible to repair it. Do I lost all the teams and drafts of future chapters. So I had to create then from scratch :(.

Ch 28 turned out to be, a bit more than 6000 words so I decided to split it in 2 parts. Hope you enjoy).

Receptionist: Welcome challenger, to the Celadon City Gym.

As Wes went incide, he was immediately greeted by the beautiful receptionist, wearing a traditional purple Kimono. The reception hall, was full of different flower arrangements, of various colours and sizes. Then the receptionist lead Wes, towards the waiting room, before leaving shortly, in order to ask, the Gym Leader, Erika, about the format of this challenge.

The waiting room of the Gym, was decorated, with lots of sunflowers, roses, snapdragons, chrysanthemums, chamomile, as well as irises. In the middle of the room, a huge flower shaped table, along with also some wooden chairs, that had some flower decoration, on them, gave quite the welcoming feeling. After 5 minutes, the receptionist returned, along with a small tray, holding a 50 to 60 ml perfume bottle. The top of the bottle had a micrographie of a Gloom flower.

Receptionist: Thank you for waiting challenger. The format of the battle, will be a 6 VS 6, single format. Both the Challenger and the Gym Leader, can switch Pokemon. The Gym battle will begin in 30 minutes. Also, this is a gift, for visiting our Gym. Its the most popular perfume we have.

Wes: Thank you very much, for your hospitality.

Wes revealed a faint smile as he said that. After all this was the most welcoming Gym out of the other 3, he had visited before. As the receptionist left, Wes took a look at the perfume, he had just received. The bottle had a dark blue transparent colour. Also in huge golden bright words, the title "AWESOME GLOOM" decorated the bottle. in smaller words, wes could see that it was a men edition perfume.

Wes didn't spend even a second, before opening the bottle and spraying, his hand once. Then he smelled his hand. A complex refreshing aroma hit his nose. Back in his previous world and even this one, it was common knowledge, that the smell from the honey and pollen, Gloom produced, can reach weaponised levels. At closed spaces, the smell from Gloom was considered as a pure Calamity. There were reports of people, fainting while they had a distance of 1,25 miles away from a Gloom, thanks to its horrid smell.

Though there were also some good news, for Gloom. In his previous world Wes had heard, that perfumes made from Gloom, were considered, as top quality products. So he was always curious, if that was the case. Finally he had the chance to satisfy his curiosity.

The half an hour wait, was finally over. Wes immediately left the room and went straight towards the battlefield, were his 4th Gym Challenge awaited him.

On the other hand, on the stands, a lot of beautiful girls, could be seen. They were trainers training on the Gym, people that work at the Gym, as well as the cashier that work at the perfume shop, right next to the gym. Leaf was together with a young blonde woman.

???: Hey Leaf. I heard that, todays challenger is from your hometown.

Leaf: Yes Laura. That challenger is one of my childhood friends. He is also the one, that won the Vermilion City Double Tournament.

Laura: What!!!!! I see. So, he is the one that destroyed you completely, in the semifinals stage.

Laura said that last part with a teasing expression on her face.

Leaf: !!!!!!. Can't you not remind me of that.

Leaf on the other hand, showed a defeated look on her face.

Leaf: Though i believe, with all my training here, i should have closed the gap between us, quite a bit.

Then the conversation of the two girls got interrupted, as the challenger Wes and the Gym Leader Erika appeared on their opposite corners on the battlefield.

When the battlefield appeared in his field of vision, Wes had a single thought.

" What a huge grassland."

Then Wes finally reached his corner. Opposite to him a not to short or tall woman, wearing a pink kimono along with a yellow full of flowers robe could be seen. She was Erika the Gym Leader of Celadon City.

Erika: Welcome challenger to the Celadon City Gym. I am Erika the Gym Leader of this Gym. I hope, you are well prepared for our battle.

Wes: Of course I'm well prepared. Also, i thank you for your hospitality, during my stay at the Gym.

Wes really ment the last part of his sentence. After all, this was the first time, he was received like this, in a Pokemon Gym.

Erika: Ok then. Its time to battle.

Wes: Charizard take the stage.

Erika: Come on out, Tangela

Then a huge orange dragon (That is a Fire and Flying type, while an Alolan Exeggutor somehow is a Dragon Type) With a burning burning at the tip of its tail appeared, with a huge roar. On the other hand a bizarre creature, made up of only blue tenta.... ooops sorry.. Blue Vine's and two red feet appeared on stage.

Tangela: female LV 33 Ability: Chlorophyll Item: no

Moves: Constrict, Ingrain, Leech Seed (Baby), Rage Powder (Baby), Sleep Powder, Poison Powder, Sunny Day (TM), Growth, Synthesis (Tutor), Seed Bomb (Tutor), Giga Drain (TM).

Erika: Tangela use Sleep Powder.

Wes: Charizard Protect. Then Flamethrower.

Tangela realised a lot of green powder towards its opponent but all the powder, got blocked, by a protective green dome. Then Charizard launched its a powerful Flamethrower, towards the Tangela.

Erika: Tangela!!!!!

Hearing the voice of its trainer, Tangela dodge immediately, dodging the Flamethrower by a hair.

Erika: Tangela return.

Wes: Charizard Flamethro....

Wes was just about to order his Charizard, to use its Flamethrower Move again, but Erika swiftly switched out her current Pokemon.

Erika: Exeggutor come on out.

Then the Grass, Psychic Type Exeggutor appeared on the battlefield.

Exeggutor: male LV 34 Ability: Chlorophyll Item: no

Moves: Barrage, Hypnosis, Ancient Power (Baby), Grassy Terrain (Baby), Reflect, Light Screen (TM), Leech Seed, Bullet Seed, Poison Powder, Sunny Day (TM), Confusion, Giga Drain (TM), Stomp, Egg Bomb, Explosion (TM).

"Ancient Power!!! I expected, her new Pokemon to have Hidden Power-Rock. If it hits Charizard and also prock, the boost. Then I'm in big trouble. Luckily the super effective Move is still Rock Type, so my plan A, is still in motion ".

(In a Pokemon Sapphire Nazloke, that was going perfectly fine. In the final Steven fight. Wes only having lost a single Pokemon against 5 from Steven. The final Cradily of Champion Steven procked Ancient Power 3 times in a row, while also recovering its HP with one item or Giga Drain. The Cradily then Koed 4 Pokemon, before the final Camerupt, procked Quick Claw into a critical hit Eruption. Then procking the Quick Claw again into a crit Fire Blast for the win).

Wes: Charizard come back. Its your turn Magneton.

Then Wes immediately, switched out his Charizard for his Magneton.

Erika: Exeggutor use Sunny Day.

Wes: Metal Sound.

Exeggutor then emitted a faint light from its body. Then the sun rays concentrated on the whole battlefield. On the other hand Magneton launched its magnetic sound waves, hiting the Exeggutor, lowering its SPDef Stat by two stages.

Erika: Light Screen Exeggutor.

Wes: Metal sound again.

Exeggutor condensed an ethereal green screen in front of it. This screen reduced the damage of the user by 50%. Magneton used its Metal Sound Move again, lowering by -2 the SPDef of Exeggutor.

Erika: Hypnosis.

Wes: Protect.

Exeggutor hearing, the order of its trainer, condensed three golden rings, made out of psychic energy and launched them at Magneton. Regretfully those rings, were deflected by the Protect Move of Magneton.

Erika: Exeggutor use Leech Seed.

Erika immediately after seeing the green dome, ordered her Pokemon to use its Leach Seed Move. She hoped that with the continuous damage and healing effect, that the Move had. Her Exeggutor, would be able to outgrind its opponent. But Wes had a counterplan.

Wes: Magneton Gravity.

In a radius around Magneton, the space started to distort. As the Leech Seed entered that space, it started to lose height, until it hit the ground, a distance away, from its intended target.

Erika: Exeggutor use Hypnosis.

Wes: Double Team.

Exeggutor again launched 3 rings towards its opponent, but this time, the rings passed through an afterimage.

Wes: Metal Sound.

Immediately after Magneton avoided, the Hypnosis Move of Exeggutor, it immediately executed the order of its trainer, lowering its SPDed Stat by a total of -6. Then the weather returned back to normal.

Erika: Sunny Day.

Wes: Magneton use Tri Attack.

Exeggutor then changed the weather of the battlefield again. Magneton on the other hand created a three different colour balls of energy in a triangle formation. One was red, another one was blue and the last one was yellow. Then the 3 energy balls combined and were launched towards the Exeggutor.

Erika: take it Exeggutor. Then use Hypnosis.

Exeggutor listened to its trainer. It took the hit receiving quite a bit of damage. Then it launched its hypnotic rings again. But Wes was prepared yet again

Wes: Teleport.

Magneton Teleported behind Exeggutor, while its trainer gave it a new order.

Erika: Grassy Terrain.

Exeggutor then glowed with an ethereal green light. Then the whole battlefield was covered in this aura.

(Grassy Terrain creates a low-lying grassy field lasting 5 turns, that restores the HP of grounded Pokémon each turn, by 1⁄16 of their maximum HP. The power of Grass type moves also increases by 50% while in effect, and the moves Earthquake, Magnitude, and Bulldoze lose 50% of their power.

Grounded Pokémon are simply those that are not raised. Raised Pokémon are any Flying types or those under the effects of Levitate, Magnet Rise or Telekinesis. Grassy Terrain is a terrain condition and can coexist at the same time as weather conditions, but not other terrain conditions.

The Move Nature Power also turns into Energy Ball under the effect of Grassy Terrain).

Wes: Hidden Power.

Magneton launched a lot of red coloured orbs towards the Exeggutor. The damage reduction wasn't even close to withstanding that attack, resulting at the defeat of Exeggutor.

Erika: Noooooooo!!!!!! Exeggutor.

Erika was shocked at what had just transpired. This Magneton was way more slippery than she expected. So she decided to use one of the most troublesome Pokemon on her team.

Erika: Venusaur go.

A huge Venusaur appeared on stage, with a huge roar.

Venusaur: VEEEEEENAUsauuur!!!!!

Venusaur: female LV 35 Ability: Chlorophyll Item: Leftovers.

Moves: Tackle, Sludge (Baby), Synthesis (Baby), Crowl, Sunny Day (TM), Leech Seed, Sleep Powder, Reflect (Tutor), Light Screen (TM), Razor Leaf, Sweet Scent, Giga Drain (TM), Growth, Hidden Power-Fire (TM), Petal Blizzard, Solar Beam (TM).

Erika: Venusaur Hidden Power.

Wes: Meral Sound.

Venusaur launched the same energy orbs, Magneton used, to defeat Exeggutor. Magneton took the hit directly, while the Metal Sound lowered the SPDef Stat of Venusaur by 2 stages.

Erika: Venusaur Hidden Power again.

Wes: Teleport.

The Hidden Power-Fire was launched again at an amazing speed, but its target had teleported behind Venusaur.

Wes: Metal Sound.

Erika: Solar Beam.

Thanks to Magneton sudden appearance, Magneton managed to fire its Move first, while Venusaur had to turn around its body, in order to target its opponent. Venusaur's SPDef Stat got lowered again. Venusaur then thanks to the sunny weather conditions, finished instantly the preparation needed to fire its Solar Beam Move. Magneton took a direct hit, fainting in the process.

Wes returned back to its Pokeball, the defeated Magneton.

Wes: Good job. Your sacrifice won't ve in vain. Charizard take the stage.

Then Charizard appeared again for the second time.

Erika: Venusaur use Sleep Powder.

Wes: Charizard Protect. Then Flamethrower.

Venusaur immediately realised its Sleep Powder Move. Bit it got blocked by the Protect Move, used by Charizard. Then at instant Speed a Flamethrower moved towards the Venusaur. Venusaur had no time to dodge

Erika: Light Screen.

But it was too late. The Flamethrower blasted Venusaur before it could condense its Light Screen Move. The Flamethrower was even a critical hit. The damage was so mach, that Venusaur fainted immediately after taking the hit.

In the stands Leaf and Laura, along with the other girls, had their mouths wide open.

Leaf: Impossible.

Laura: One blow. One of the three nightmares for all challengers, was taken out, in one single blow.

Leaf: How did this happen????.

Leaf showed a defeated expression on her face as she was saying that.

Erika: Tangela go.

Erika returned back her defeated Pokemon, switching the new one very fast. She wanted to take advantage of the previous use of the Protect Move, in order to put this huge threat, to sleep.

Erika: Tangela Sleep Powder.

Wes: Charizard Wing Attack.

Charizard went straight for the Tangela, but it started to lose heigh very obviously, until it crash landed on the ground, at a close distance from the opposing Tangela.

Wes: Flamethrower.

Erika: !!!!!!!!!! DODGEEEEE!!!!!

Erika after hearing Wes, had a very bad feeling but as she screamed at her Pokemon to dodge the incoming danger, Charizard opened its is wide open and a powerful Flamethrower was launched straight at the Tangela, at a very close range. Tangela took the hid directly immediately fainting.

The Grassy Terrain then dissipated.

Erika: Great job Tangela. Return.

Erika returned back her defeated Pokemon.

Erika: You send your Charizard head on, in order to make it fall asleep and then, immediately wake up from the Chesto Berry. Right????

Erika made a conjecture, about the plan of her opponent. Wes immediately answered, after hearing the Gym Leader.

Wes: You are almost completely corect. I used the Lum berry, to cover all the status conditions. After all the Grass Type Pokemon are very well known for that strategy.

Erika: I see. You might actually be, the most prepared challenger i faced, in my whole career.

Erika was very truthful about this. After all it was only the 4th time, that a challenger was prepared, that well for her. But Wes had only revealed 3 Pokemon so far. He actually even sacrificed Magneton, in order to weaken, and destroy her Venusaur, in one blow. Who knew, what else, he had in store, for this battle.

As Erika talked with Wes. The weather returned back to normal.

Erika: Ok then. lets continue with this match. Victreebel you are next.

Victreebel: male LV 34 Ability: Chlorophyll Item: no

Moves: Vine Whip, Weather Ball (Baby), Endure (Baby), Growth, Sunny Day (TM), Sleep Powder, Hidden Power-Water (TM), Energy Ball (Tutor), Acid, Gastro Acid (Tutor), Lead Tornado, Poison Jab (TM), Giga Drain (TM).

Wes then, switched out his Charizard again, for a new Pokemon.

Wes: Butterfree come on out.

Butterfree: Free freee.

Butterfree was quite excited, to appear in this Gym battle. After all Wes didn't use it, at the Gym, in Vermilion City.

Erika: Sunny Day Victreebel.

Wes: Butterfree use String Shot.

Victreebel then changed the weather of the battlefield yet again. Butterfree on the other hand launched a lot of, sticky silk, that got stuck around Victreebel's body, lowering its Speed Stat by one stage.

Erika: Victreebel use Gastro Acid.

Wes: Protect.

Victreebel immediately after hearing, the order, of its trainer, launched, in quite the lot volume, of green guey acid, towards Butterfree. Butterfree enveloped itself in a green dome that deflected, the incoming acid.

" So. Trying to negate my ability huhh".

Erika: Weather Ball Victreebel.

Wes: Teleport then use Psybeam.

Victreebel launched a big white energy ball from its mouth. As the ball left Victreebel and moved towards its opponent, it started to immediately get bigger and bigger and suddenly changed into a huge fire ball. This Was the effect, of the Weather Ball Move. The Move would double in power and then, change its Type, according to the weather conditions of the battlefield.

Butterfree on the other hand, teleported behind the Victreebel, completely avoiding the Weather Ball. Then the rainbow ray that Butterfree realised, hit hard, the opposing Victreebel.

Erika: Victreebel use Sleep Powder.

Wes: Double Team Butterfree.

Butterfree immediately created 6 afterimages, but the Sleep Powder of Victreebel found its mark. The real Butterfree had fallen asleep, while being mid air. Then it started to fall down. Erika finally had a smirk on her face. It was time to begin her counter attack.

Erika: Good job. Victribell use weathe,,, Dodge to the right Now!!!!!

As Erika ordered her Victreebel to attack, she suddenly got a very bad feeling. Immediately she changed her intented order, and had her Victreebel to quickly dodge towards the right side. Then a rainbow ray passed right through the previous position of Victreebel. Victreebel had narrowly dodged the sudden Psybeam of Butterfree.

Erika: Victreebel use Sleep Powder.

Wes: Safeguard Butterfree.

Victreebel realised again, a lot of green polen, towards its opponent. Butterfree on the other hand was enveloped, by an ethereal substance. As the Sleep Powder Move reached Butterfree, it appeared, to have, no effect.

Erika: " Now i can't use any negative status Moves. Damit . I can't take advantage of the consumed Berry".

Erika got frustrated at this development. The opening, she had found. Turned out to be a huge trap, that she, narrowly avoided. And now that Butterfree had used its Lum Berry, making this the opportune moment to put it to Sleep, only to be countered again.

Erika: Growth Victreebel.

Wes: Electro Web.

Butterfree created a web made completely out of electricity. Then that web, enveloped Victreebel lowering its Speed Stat again by 1 stage. While the web enveloped Victreebel, Victreebel had used its Growth Move, in order to increase, its Atk and SPAtk Stat by 2 stages. Then the weather at that time, returned back to normal.

(Growth is a Move that increases the Atk and SpAtk Stat of the user by 1 stage. In harsh sunlight, the stats are increased, by 2 stages instead).

Erika: Victreebel use Sunny day.

Wes: Butterfree Supersonic.

Erika ordered her Pokemon, to change the weather again. After all with Chlorophyll, Victreebel will have its normal Speed. Wes since Sleep Powder, didn't work on the Grass Type, decided to inflict Victreebel with the confusion status.

Erika: Solar Beam.

Wes: Double Team.

Butterfree created again, afterimages of itself. Victreebel thanks to the sunny weather, charged its Solar Beam immediately. But because of its dizziness, its Solar Beam Move didn't hit, even an afterimage.

Erika: Victreebel use Poison jab.

Wes: Psybeam Butterfree.

The huge vine, on Victreebel's body, started to glow, in an eyre purple colour. Victreebel then dashed towards Butterfree. Butterfree on the other hand managed to hit Victreebel again, with its rainbow coloured ray. Victreebel was knocked back, but at the same time, its confused status returned back to normal.

Erika: Good job Victreebel. Use Weather Ball.

Wes: Butterfree Teleport!!!

Victreebel immediately launched, its Fire Type Weather Ball towards its opponent. Wes immediately ordered, his Pokemon to dodge, with its Teleport Move. After all that boosted Weather Ball, could potentially, one shot Butterfree.

Erika: Solar Beam.

Ees: Take it and use Psybeam.

Victreebel immediately launched a huge blinding ray towards its opponent. Butterfree went straight towards the ray, taking the hit. Thanks to Butterfree's Type Butterfree didn't take a lot of damage. Then as the Solar Beam dissipated, Butterfree counterattacked with its own ray. Victreebel took the sudden hit directly, fainting in the process.

Erika: Victreebel!!!!!.

Erika immediately returned back her defeated Pokemon. It had fought very valiantly, but Butterfree got the upper hand. Then Erika called out, one of her ace Pokemon. The Pokemon, that inspired, the design of this Gym.

Erika: Go Vileplume.


Chapter 43: Ch 29: Wes VS Erika part 2

Then a huge red flower, with white spots appeared on stage. If someone looked carefully. They would be able to see the blue main body of Vileplume, that was hidden from direct view, because of the huge red Flower.

Wes before even seeing, Vileplume's summary, returned back his Butterfree, for another Pokemon. The famous Ghost Type Pokemon that has its very own hands detached, from its own body, Haunter.

Vileplume female LV 36 Ability: Chlorophyll Item: Miracle Seed.

Moves: Absorb, Growth, Flail (Baby), Reflect (Baby), Sweet Scent, Acid, Sunny Day (TM), Razor Leaf (Tutor), Moonlight, Giga Drain, Hidden Power-Water (TM), Moonblast (Tutor), Solar Beam (TM).

As Haunter appeared, from its Pokeball.The eyes on its face disappeared. Then one eye appeared on its right hand, while another appeared on its left. Then it started to juggle, using its eyes in the place of balls.

Some girls at the stands screamed, totally scared, by this bizarre action. Leaf had facepalmed, her own face thinking, that this action, was totally expected from this Pokemon, while her friend Laura was petrified on her seat, with her hands covering her eyes.

Wes: Haunter!!!! Stop this right now.

Haunter hearing Wes, immediately grabbed both eyes, with its hands and put them back in their place. Only to realize, that in its haste, it had put the right eye on its left socket and the left eye, on the right side. So after realizing its mistake, both of its eyes started to move in a clockwise direction, until they were on their Sockets.

While this was happening. Vileplume had a very panicked look, on its face. Erika also had a look of disgust, at, what she had just seen.

Wes on the other hand, looked like a person that had already accepted his ill fate. This Haunter was really a piece of work. Why did he want a Ghost Type, in the first place. Was it because Gengar, was his favorite Ghost Type Pokemon.

Erika: All right. Lets continue with this match.

Wes: Ok.

Erika: Vileplume use Solar Beam.

Wes: Haunter use Double Team.

A Solar Beam was immediately launched by Vileplume. Haunter created 6 afterimages and all afterimages moved towards the opposing Vileplume. The Solar Beam passed right through an afterimage, missing its intended target.

Wes: Icy Wind

Erika: Vileplume Growth

Erika ordered her Pokemon to use the Growth Move. Haunter's Typing resisted her strongest Moves, so Erika decided to power up her Pokémon, in order to deal with the opposing, Ghost and Poison Type Pokemon. Haunter on the other hand blew out a chilling wind. Even though it was a super effective hit, Vileplume didn't take a lot of damage thanks to its very high SPDef Stat, as well as the low base power of the Icy Wind Move. But what Icy Wind lacks in power, it makes up with its secondary effects, that lowers the opponent's Speed Stat by 1 stage.

Wes: Hypnosis.

Erika: Dodge and use Razor Leaf.

Haunter conjured 3 golden rings made out of psychic energy. Then with a flick of its right hand, the rings moved towards, the opposing Pokemon. Vileplume dodged the hypnotic waves and counterattacked with its Razor Leaf Move. Then the sunny weather dissipated.

Wes: Icy Wind.

Erika: Sunny Day.

Haunter before Vileplume, could find its balance, realised again its Icy Wind. Icy Wind found its target, lowering its Speed stat, yet again.

Wes: Icy wind again Haunter.

Vileplume finally balanced itself and it immediately use its Sunny Day Move, in order to counter the Speed drop, thanks to its Ability. But then a second Icy Wind hit it again.

Erika: " If this continues, it will be a repeat of the previous match. Chlorophyll is still doing its job, but if he lowers my Speed more, i will need to switch out my Vileplume."

Erika thought of countermeasures, in order to escape her predicament, but Wes had other plans.

Erika: Moonblast Vileplume.

Wes: Haunter use Mean Look.

Vileplume then launched an energy ball made out of lunar energy, Haunter on the other hand dodged the attack and suddenly, a mysterious glint appeared in its eyes. Then a strange aura covered, the opposing Pokemon.

"Dammit. I can't switch out now".

Erika got very frustrated at that result. Her strategy and plan had been countered yet again.

(Mean Look, was a Move, introduced in Gen2. The Opponent the Move was used on, cannot flee or switch.

Competitively, the Move, along with similar moves (Block, Whirlpool, Fire Spin, ech), didn't find that much success, though there were cases, that it worked very well.

There was a Mega Sableye set, that used Mean Look+Spite to trap and PP stall certain mons that would give the Stall team trouble, and a few players dabbled with Mean Look/Encore/Recover.

Mean Look+Perish Song did see use in some previous Gens. PerishTrap has become a bit of a meme strat nowadays. )

Erika: Growth.

Wes: Use Icy Wind.

Vileplume use Solar Beam.

Erika's Vileplume started to glow, increasing its SPAtk and Atk stats again by 2 more stages, while Haunter hit it again with its Icy Wind Move, lowering, Vileplume's Speed even more. Then, Vileplume launched its Solar Beam Move, towards the opposing Haunter.

Wes: Sucker Punch.

Haunter suddenly disappeared from its original spot. Then it appeared, behind the opposing Vileplume, striking it with a fist, completely covered by darkness. Because of the sudden hit, the Solar Beam, smashed a nearby wall.

Erika: Vileplume Moonlight.

Wes: Hypnosis Haunter.

Erika: Dodge!!!!!

Vileplume started to gather Moonlight in order to heal itself, but the sudden order of its trainer, made to cancel its action, as it dodged the Hypnotic rings, its opponent, had thrown towards it. Then, the harsh sunlight dissipated.

Erika: Sunny Day.

Wes: Haunter Confuse Ray.

Vileplume brought back to the battlefield, the harsh sunlight effect. Haunter, on the other hand, inflicted the confuse status on its opponent.

Erika: Moonlight.

Wes: Hypnosis.

Vileplume started to gather moonlight, while Haunter launched three golden hypnotic rings. While Vileplume recovered its HP, the Hypnosis Move of Haunter found its mark, putting Vileplume to sleep.

Erika: No Vileplume.

Erika started to get very worried. She had only 2 Pokemon left, and her current Pokemon, had fallen asleep and she couldn't switch it out because of the previous Mean Look Move.

Wes: Icy Wind.

Haunter once again used its Icy Wind Move, hitting the sleeping Vileplume.

Wes: Icy Wind.

Vileplume once again got hit by the Icy Wind Move, of its opponent. Vileplume then opened its eyes. The confuse status condition that the Vileplume suffered was finally over.

Erika: Great Vileplume use Moonblast.

Wes: Haunter use Foul Play.

Vileplume immediately gathered moonlight to launch its Moonblast Move, but thanks to the -6 Speed Stat, even with its Overgrowth Ability, while in the harsh sunlight, Haunter managed to strike first. Haunter cloaked itself in dark energy and tackled its opponent. At the time of contact, the darkness enveloping Haunter, transferred to the Opposing Pokemon. Vileplume couldn't resist any more damage and immediately fainted.

All the spectators on the stands had, horrifying expressions on their faces.They had seen Erika lose before to previous challengers, but this time was different. This challenger had the absolute Type advantage. But he also had prepared a counter plan to all of the Gym Leader's plans.

Laura: Leaf.... What kind of a freak is your friend????

Leaf: I don't know.

Leaf really didn't know, what short of an answer, she could give to her friend.

" I thought that since i trained here. I should have closed the gap by quite a bit. But why does it appear that Wes got even further away from my reach?????"

This was the only thing on her mind. After training In the Gym, with many of her Pokemon evolving and even, her new team member, she thought that she had closed the gap, only to realize, that the gap had widened even more.

Erika then switched out her defeated Vileplume. A cute Bellosom took its place.

Bellosom female LV 36 Ability: Chlorophyll Item: Heat Rock.

Moves: Absorb, Growth, Charm (Baby), Sunny Day (Baby), Sweet Scent, Acid, Giga Drain(TM), Razor Leaf (Tutor), Moonlight, Magic Leaf, Hidden Power-Fire (TM), Moonblast (Tutor), Solar Beam (TM).

Wes: Great job Haunter. Nidorino take the stage.

Then the Poison Type Nidorino appeared, ready for battle.

Erika: Growth Bellosom.

Wes: Nidorino use Toxic.

Erika: Dodge!!!!

Bellosom started to emit a white light, but it immediately stopped and dodged the Toxic Move Nidorino launched at it. The harsh sunlight dissipated, returning the weather condition on the battlefield, back to normal.

Wes: Use Focus Energy.

Erika: Sunny Day Bellosom.

Nidorino immediately began to focus all its energy increase its critical rate by 2 stages. Bellosom, on the other hand, brought the harsh sunlight weather condition on the battlefield again. Thanks to the Heat Stone that Bellosom had, the harsh sunlight would persist longer than before.

Erika: Solar Beam.

Wes: Sucker Punch.

Because of the weather condition, Bellosom launched its Solar Beam Move immediately. Nidorino suddenly disappeared and reappeared right behind its opponent. Then Nidorino struck Bellosom with its Sucker Punch Move.

Erika: Solar Beam.

Wes: Take it. Then use Ice Beam.

Bellosom then launched its Solar Beam Move at Nidorino again. The Solar Beam found its target and then with a huge boom, dust floated everywhere after the huge explosion. Then an azure ray passed right through the dust and hit the Bellosom for super effective damage. The hit was also a critical hit.

Erika: Bellossom Moonlight.

Wes: Toxic.

Bellosom, thanks to the harsh sunlight weather condition restored 2/3 Max HP (75%).

(Moonlight restores the user's current HP based on the weather in the battle. During no weather it restores ½ total HP, during harsh sunlight it restores ⅔ total HP, and during other weather it restores ¼ total HP, rounded down).

As Bellosom recovered its HP. Nidorino took aim against its immobile target and launched its Toxic Move, badly poisoning its target.

Erika: Hidden Power.

Wes: Sucker Punch.

Bellosom then unleashed the fiery colored Hidden Power towards Nidorino, but Nidorino avoided and counter attacked with its Sucker Punch Move scoring a critical hit.

Erika: Solar Beam.

Wes: Nidorino Protect.

Bellosom unleashed its Solar Beam Move towards to Nidorino. Nidorino was enveloped by a protective green dome that deflected the Solar Beam.

Wes: Sludge Bomb.

Erika: Dodge it!!!!!

Bellosom narrowly avoided the huge poisonous bomb.

Erika: Magic Leaf.

Wes: Return!!!!!

Then Bellosom counter attacked with a storm of ever changing rainbow coloured leafs. Nidorino charged, right through the Magic Leaf Move of its opponent. Thanks to its increased Speed, Bellosom was able to dodge the attack of its opponent.

Erika: Solar Beam.

Wes: Protect.

The green protective dome deflected the Solar Beam Move of Bellosom, yet again. The weather condition of the battlefield returned back to normal. Bellosom also started to look like, it was out of breath.

Wes: Nidorino Ice Beam.

Erika: Dodge and use Magic Leaf.

Bellosom dodged the azure ray, and immediately counter attacked.

Wes: Take it and use Sludge Bomb.

Nidorino took the hit like a champ. But the continuous hits it received started to take their tol on it. Nidorino immediately attacked with a huge poison bomb.

Bellosom: Bellloooosoom!!!!!!!!

Bellosom screamed in pain. But it managed to hang on thanks to its willpower. But then the continuous damage from its poison status delt the final blow. Bellosom had fainted. This Gym battle was almost a complete sweep from the challenger.
