Capítulo 160: Is this even a fight?
"The battle between Rex the challenger and Giovanni the gym leader will now commence. Per the gym leader's instructions, both of you can only use one Pokémon. The first one to faint is the loser." Said a grunt in team rocket clothing. But what was interesting was that there was no longer an 'R' on his clothes.
Giovanni and Rex both nodded at each other before their faces hardened slightly.
Rex pulled out a matte black Pokeball that shone with golden lights through the gaps.
Giovanni wasn't aware of who Rex was going to use, but the aura coming off of the Pokeball by itself gave him chills. He steeled his resolve and pressed a button on his watch.
The wall behind him subsequently opened up to reveal a Pokémon, standing there, motionless in a suit of heavy armour. Black in colour with a mirrored visor. There were wires connected to different parts of his suit that slowly detached, effectively releasing Mewtwo.
Rex couldn't help but squint from the smile spreading on his face. his final team member had finally appeared before him. it was only a matter of time before he would complete his Kanto team. But first, he would need to thrash him.
He clutched the Pokeball in his hands tightly as he heard Giovanni's voice.
"You wanted to fight my creation. Well, here you have it. bred to be stronger than Mew, he is the ultimate weapon."
Rex didn't respond and simply threw his Pokeball out.
The instant it touched the floor a blinding light burst out almost blinding everyone present. Then a cold wind surged in the form of a tornado as a silhouette began to coalesce before everyone's eyes. Within the tornado, a set of golden eyes shone threw followed by runes that seemed to float within the confines of machamp's outline.
A hand burst through the tornado stopping it in its tracks revealing his 4-meter body full of muscle and his four arms crossed over his chest, sturdy like the tallest mountain.
The Rocket grunt nodded and waved the flag as his words fell, "let the battle… BEGIN!"
A horn sounded from the side signalling the beginning, but nobody moved.
"Machamp, bullet punch."
Bang!
Before his words even finished two Mewtwo's appeared on the field. One was lodged into the wall behind Giovanni, cracks appearing like spiderwebs as the gym trembled and dust flew.
The other was standing in the original spot, yet it slowly started to fade. An after image was formed from the sheer speed at which Mewtwo flew out.
Machamp didn't seem to have moved and only a slight flicker was seen over his body before he regain a 'solid' appearance.
Giovanni still couldn't react as he stared at the fading Mewtwo with an expressionless face.
Elesa's eyes were shaking in their sockets from the shock. She struggled to refrain from jumping out of her seat from the attack.
"Thi-This is the power he spoke of? How can such a monster roam the earth?" Monica mumbled dumbly as she shivered intensely from fright.
Jessica squinted as a frown appeared on her face. she looked at the unmoving Mewtwo that looked like a pancake pasted onto a wall. The armour was cracked and dented all over.
"Machamp actually hit him a total of 14 times." Jessica revealed to the shock of the other two.
Elesa was the first to recover, "what do you mean?"
Jessica nodded in Mewtwo's direction.
"The number of dents on the armour indicated how many blows he received. I count 14. All in the span of less than a second. It seems the Pokedex wasn't just hearsay about machamp's being able to punch more than 500 times a second. A true monster indeed. This battle is already over." She said slowly and confidently.
Yet Elesa saw Jessica's shaking hand that she tried to desperately hide from sight.
But to the shock of everyone present, the sound of rocks falling could be heard forcing everyone to look towards the source only to see Mewtwo, with half of his visor shattered, glaring at Machamp furiously. a low growl seeped out of his lips.
Mewtwo's eyes glowed with a vivid purple hue as psychic energy seeped out of his body forcing him to float into the air.
[Mewtwo is in a semi-conscious state. He is not actually awake but acting on instinct, I suggest you take it easy so as to not damage him more than he already is. I estimate four fractured ribs, a broken arm and internal bleeding. Something that he can heal easily with heal pulse but since he's not fully awake I would refrain from making it worse.]
Rex nodded in understanding and looked at Machamp.
"Wake him up."
Bang!
Machamp was already in front of Mewtwo before slapping him to the floor causing a crater to appear.
Machamp flickered before appearing on the ground with Mewtwo in his hand.
{Awaken!} he shouted in a deep tone that echoed in the room.
Slowly the sound wave passed through Mewtwo's body forcing his eyes to regain some clarity. it took a moment but soon, Mewtwo moved his head slightly as he stared at Machamp.
"Where… am I?" Mewtwo's voice rang out in Machamp and Rex's minds.
{you are currently fighting a losing battle.} Machamp responded with a stone-cold face.
Mewtwo looked down at the hand clutching his throat in a vice tight grip. He struggled to breathe as he raised his head again to look at Rex behind him.
"You serve a human? With your strength?" he asked, anger and disgust evident in his tone.
Machamp shook his head, {not serve, we are equals. Friends, brothers, family. Something you don't quite know the meaning of… correct?}
Instantly a furious expression surfaced on Mewtwo's face yet the next second he found himself kissing the floor as pain surged from the left side of his face. Machamp had thrown him back down to the floor as someone does with a wet rag. There, Mewtwo was pressed to the ground. Machamp leaned in slightly.
{You are in no position to be angry. I am not insulting you, just making an observation.}
Mewtwo was no longer rational as his anger shot to new heights, his psychic energy surged in waves, seeping between him and Machamp's hand prying it open to Rex's shock.
'How is that possible?' he asked.
[it's not, Machamp's just pretending. No need to worry, after all, he needs to escape somehow right?]
Rex silently nodded in his head and continued to watch on.
"You are but a mere puppet brainwashed by these filthy, manipulative and emotionless humans. But I am not your match. We will meet again soon. And on that day, I will beat you and free you from your chains."
Mewtwo floated into the air as he spoke, his wounds healing at a visible rate. He glanced at Rex one last time only to see him waving with a playful smile on his face. this puzzled the pokemon greatly but paid little attention as he then turned to Giovanni before disappearing into the clouds as a sonic boom rang out.
