章 509: Battle against Liza
"Come out Pidgeotto!!!", shouted Liza as she threw the ball.
It was Pidgeotto. Axel was hoping it to be another Pokemon. Technically, Pidgeotto was a common rank Pokemon but it was a powerful Pokemon.
Axel didn't have any flying-type Pokemon with him and he knew that this Pidgeotto would be very hard to win.
So, he thought to send out his best Pokemon after Togepi.
"Come out, Bagon!!!", shouted Axel.
"Bagon!!!", it shouted as it came out.
Now, Bagon was just around 1.5 months old. It had also not learned any new moves and it only knew physical type moves. It was going to be a hard battle as Pidgeotto was a flying-type Pokemon. The problem was that Totodile and Mankey also hardly had any special type moves.
However, he also knew that Pidgeotto would hardly have any special type moves. He also had a Pidgeot, so he was confident about it. He chose Bagon cause Bagon had the highest defense compared to Totodile and Mankey.
He looked at Pidgeotto's stats:
---
Pokemon's name: Pidgeotto (Age- 6 months)
Pokemon Nickname: NA
Pokemon Rank: common rank
Ability: Keen Eye (25%)
Hidden ability: Big Pecks (20%)
Potential: Purple (Advanced)
Health: 500/500 Attack: F
Agility: F Defense: F
Sp. Atk: F Sp. Def: F
Moves: Work up, Aerial ace, Wing attack, Gust, Roost, Hurricane.

It looked like Pidgeotto had just evolved. Its move pool was not big but all the moves were essential for a Pokemon like Pidgeotto. All of them were flying-type moves except for 'Work up'.
"Let the battle Begin!!"
"Pidgeotto, fly high and use 'Work up'", said Liza with a smile. She knew that Bagon was a dragon-type Pokemon and also a pseudo-legendary Pokemon. If it was a Salamence, she was confident that she would not be able to win against it even if Pidgeotto had fully evolved to Pidgeot.
But it was only Bagon right now and she could win this battle.
"Bagon, use 'Defense curl'"
"Pidgeotto, now use 'Aerial ace'"
"Bagon concentrate and then use 'Head butt'"
Pidgeotto's move connected but Bagon used its teeth to bring it down and hit it with 'Head butt'.
Liza told it to fly high and use 'Hurricane'.
The battle went on for 10 minutes. That was a long battle between common-rank Pokemons. Pidgeotto had to come down to hit Bagon and Bagon would use that opportunity to use its own attack.
It did try to use moves like 'Gust' but it was not doing much damage to Bagon. Bagon was using its head to block most of the attack of Pidgeotto.
Finally, by the end of the 10th minute, Pidgeotto had to use 'Roost' to improve its Hp and then it finished Bagon with 'Wing attack'.
Pidgeotto didn't need to use 'Roost' but if it didn't then it would have been slower and the battle would have continued even more.
Bagon did lose but this showed how powerful a dragon-type Pokemon really was. If there was any Pokemon like Acron, then it would have clearly lost the battle but due to its strong defense and its pride, Bagon was able to hold the battle for a long time.
It might take some time to train it but it would be a powerful dragon-type Pokemon in the future.
"Hey, don't worry. You did a great job. You are the youngest and you were fighting with an evolved Pokemon.", said Axel patting Bagon's head.
It had lost the battle and it was not in a good mood. All of its peers had won till now but it lost. So, it felt that it was very weak.
"Bagon, you just have to become stronger. You are a dragon-type Pokemon. How can you stay here being sad? From now on, I will train with you, okay?"
After hearing its master, its eyes shined with new energy. Yes, it was going to train even harder and defeat this Pidgeotto.
Baby Pokemons were very cute. They have a single mindset and they would be able to achieve anything if they put their heart in it.
"Axel, why don't you send out your Pokemon next.", said Liza with a smile.
"Come out, Totodile.", said Axel, and Totodile came running towards the battlefield.
It said something to Bagon and then looked towards Liza.
"Come out, Poliwag"
It was an amphibian Pokemon resembling a blue, spherical tadpole. It had large eyes and pink lips that could also act as suction cups for rocks. Its skin was very thin, but flexible and difficult to puncture. There was a black and white swirl on its abdomen, which was actually its internal organs showing through its semitransparent skin. The swirl was clearer following a meal and would have a white tinge if the Pokémon was affected by disease. The direction of the belly spiral differs by area; the equator was thought to have an effect on it.
Axel knew that Poliwag had very weak legs and could not run properly on land if it was not trained properly. However, in its final evolution, Poliwrath/ Politoed was a beast.
Axel first looked at the progress of his Totodile.

Its stats had grown a lot. Most of its physical stats. It had also trained on its ability and hidden ability. Its health had increased a bit and most of all its move level had rapidly risen.
Totodile had become more powerful than before. He could not wait to see how powerful it would be when it evolved to its final form.
Then he looked at Poliwag. He wanted to see its move pool.

Axel was shocked to see its potential. It had brown potential. That was very good for a wild Pokemon. Axel knew for sure that this was not the official Pokemon of Liza.
Liza might have gotten this out of an egg but she was very lucky to have a brown potential Pokemon.
However, whether she could win this battle was a different story.
Poliwag had 'Water absorb' which would let it heal a bit if it was hit by a water-type attack. That was the reason why Liza chose Poliwag. Axel felt a bit relieved when he saw that the mastery of 'Water absorb' was only 20%.
But it would still be a hindrance in the battle. Totodile had other moves too but it was a water-type Pokemon. It was a bad match but Axel was confident in Totodile's victory.
"Let the battle begin!"
"Totodile, use 'Swords dance' and then 'Aqua jet'."
Poliwag started to do weird dance and the clouds became darker and darker. Then it started to rain. Axel noticed that Poliwag was not having any problem while standing on the ground. This showed that it had been trained properly.
Totodile first used 'Swords dance' which massively boosted its attack stat and then used 'Aqua jet'. A jet of watery aura covered its whole body and it ran towards Poliwag. The speed of Totodile was heightened.
"Poliwag, use 'Swift swim' and then use 'Hydo pump'", said Liza.
Using 'Swift swim', Poliwag would increase its speed during rain. It then used 'Hydro pump'
"Totodile, cancel 'Aqua jet' and then use 'Ice punch'"
This was his plan all along. 'Aqua jet' was a water-type move and he didn't want to use it against Poliwag. He only used it to increase Totodile's defense.
Totodile was perfectly able to dodge 'Hydro pump' and then it used 'Ice punch' on the face of Poliwag.
The power of the attack was high as Totodile had used 'Swords dance' before.
"Poliwag, use 'Swift'", said Liza.
The move was very fast and Totodile was close to Poliwag, so it did hit but Axel knew that Totodile could not dodge it. So, he told Totodile to use 'Bite'.
It opened its big mouth and bit Poliwag on the side of its stomach.
Its teeth were made to bite and shred. Poliwag was now in a lot of pain. It also got hit by 'Swift' but Totodile had good defense so it only had a few scratches.
"Poliwag, use 'Hydro pump' again and get out of it.", said Liza.
Poliwag started to charge 'Hydro pump'. Since Totodile was biting its stomach, and if the attack hit Totodile, it would be from point-blank range. So, when it was about to use the move, Axel told it to use 'Dig' cause if the move connected then Totodile would certainly be injured.
It jumped and buried itself underground. Axel didn't know if 'Hydro pump' hit but it came out from behind and it Poliwag with 'Dig'.
Axel could see that the right side of its face had some bruises and blood was coming out of it. So, it was hit by the attack.
The battle went on for 5 more minutes, Poliwag started to use 'Ice beam' and 'Water pulse' as 'Hydro pump' was a stamina-consuming move.
Totodile was very fast in dodging the attacks. It also used multiple moves. It was also able to hit Poliwag with 'Screech' which decreased its defense.
Finally, Totodile hit Poliwag with 'Focus punch' and then it fainted.
"Poliwag has fainted. Totodile and Axel had won this round."
It was a great battle. Axel didn't expect the battle to last very long. He must say that Liza had trained it very well.
He was happy that Totodile had won the battle. The first battle of the Pokemon was very important as it could give them confidence.
The final battle was left and this time Liza was going to send out her Pokemon first.
"Come out, Mankey!!!", shouted Liza and threw a master ball.
She was the granddaughter of Gyro, so, she didn't have any problems in buying a master ball.
Surprisingly, the last Pokemon was Mankey.
"Come out, Mankey!!!", shouted Axel with a smile.
So, Mankey was going to fight with Mankey.
He looked at Mankey's stats

It had become powerful. Due to its new training method, its move level had risen a lot and it had just started to train seriously for a month. Axel knew that it was lacking a lot of move pool, but he wanted it to first train on the existing moves.
This battle was going to be very interesting. Axel's Mankey had to win this battle. He was confident that it would win cause it was a hard-working Pokemon.
However, he wanted to make sure of it so he checked the stats of Liza's Mankey.
He was surprised to see its stats cause…..
