Capítulo 73: Chapter 50: Prelimination round.
Commentator: Both of the contester have brought out their Pokemons! Let's see how this battle would fold out now, shall we?
Judge: Let's the battle begins.
With the signal given, both of them started to use their moves.
Charlie: Pidgeotto use Gust!
Soul: Charizard, Flamethrower.
Charlie Pidgeotto begins to flap its wings, as a small wave of gust went toward Soul's Charizard.
Charizard just ignored the small wind and fire out a strong Flamethrower, directly hitting Pidgeotto.
When Pidgeotto was hit, it fell down from the sky as the judge quickly looked at the fainted Pokemon.
Judge: Pidgeotto is unable to battle! Therefore this match goes to Charizard!
The entire stadium was silent. Even Charlie didn't move and looked at Soul's Charizard as if it was some kind of monster.
The entire stadium was amazed by the display of Charizard's power were in shock. Only after a while, they all begin to applaud and cheers for Soul.
???: Did you see that? It only took one move to end the whole match!
??? 2: That Charizard power is really strong, even though it looked different. Is it some new kind of Charizard?
??? 3: What a flamboyant show!
A lot of discussions went by as Charlie came back to his sense and returned Pidgeotto back to its Pokeball.
He looked at Soul annoyed and sent out his next Pokemon. A Fearow. Seeing its next opponent, Charizard yawned and scratches its belly.
This, of course, insults Fearow as it stared angrily at Charizard.
Charlie: Fearow use Quick Attack!
Fearow body glowed as it quickly flew towards the lazy looking Charizard.
When it was about to hit Charizard, it was grabbed by its peck as it tried to fly away to no use.
Soul: Finish it with Dragon Claw.
Charizard holds on Fearow peck with one of its claw as the other one formed a big green claw.
He gave slip-on Fearow as he hit it with a powerful slash of Dragon Claw, which sent it flying.
The judge went to check the Fearow and saw it fainted. He widens his eyes but managed to compose himself.
Judge: Fearow is unable to battle! This match also goes to Charizard!
The entire stadium fell silent again, as several cheers and applaud was heard.
???: Did you see that? Did you see that? He took out another one of his opponent's Pokemon with just one move!
??? 2: That's crazy dude! How can his Charizard be that strong?
??? 3: Who is this flamboyant kid?
Charlie returned his Pokemon once again as he looked defeated. All of his effort into this moment was washed away when he fought against this trainer!
He couldn't believe all the training and hardships he went through just to get beaten up by one Pokemon!
Sending out his ace and partner, Charlie would surely win this match!
A Golbat came out as Charlie immediately gave it a command.
Charlie: Golbat uses Air Slash!
Soul: Counter it with your own Air Slash.
Both Charizard and Golbat sent out their attacks, as they both dodged the attack by flying away.
Charlie: Great, now use Crunch!
Golbat mouth formed some kind of a mouth with sharp teeth and aimed at
Charizard.
Soul: 'This fellow is stupid.' Charizard uses Thunder punch and ends it.
Charizard, who was still flying, generated electric-energy on both of his claws and was ready to end the boring fight.
When Golbat came closer and was about to hit Charizard when Charizard dodged to the side, results in it missed the target.
Charlie: Golbat get out of there, quick!
But it was too late as Charizard punches Golbat to the ground, creating a crater.
When the dust was cleared, the judge walked over to where Golbat is and saw it fainted.
Judge: Golbat is unable to battle! This match goes to Charizard! With that Soul would go through the next round and are in the top 256!
All of the audience inside the stadium cheered as they called for Soul and Charizard's name.
Audience: Soul! Charizard! Soul!
Charlie didn't say anything and returned his Pokemon and left the arena defeated.
Soul also left the arena and returns Charizard back to his Pokeball.
When he was outside of the stadium, he was met with his friends.
Ashley: That was a spectacular battle Soul! Your black Charizard is really strong!
Opal: I hope we can fight each other at top 8.
Matthew: That was a total one side battle! Your opponent didn't even stand a chance.
Soul: All right, All right. Stop with the praise and tell me when you guys would fight.
Ashley: I would be fighting in the third round in the stadium 2. Be sure to watch me win~
Opal: I would be fighting in the fifth round in the stadium 4. I show you what my Pokemon and I are capable of, so watch us win!
Matthew: I'm just here as a supportive friend.
Soul: You sure we're supportive back at Cinnabar Island.
Matthew: I already said sorry ok!? What more do you want from me!
Soul: All you need to do is to try Ashley dishes.
Matthew: Okay, I can do that.
Soul: Great.
Soul looked at Ashley as both of them gave an evil grin.
Opal just rolled her eyes, but she couldn't deny that she also want to see how much food Matthew could handle.
The day went by as Soul and his friends watched Ashley and Opal destroy their opponent with also one Pokemon.
Their opponent we're weak tho. Even weaker than Soul's first opponent.
When they all finished battling and advance toward the next round, they talked about where they should meet later.
They agreed on meeting at one of the Pokemon Village League Café.
They all parted away as Soul went back to his hut and fed his Pokemon before they did the usual thing.
