"Here are the rules of the match. Each trainer is allowed to use two Pokémon, the first trainer to knock out both opposing Pokémon is the winner." The referee explained the rules.
"Well, I know who I'm starting with. Let's the games begin!" Misty sent the frog Pokémon.
"Politoed!" The toad Pokémon clapped it's hands together.
"Lets go, Coraline!" Ashlyn sent out her Shiny Corsola.
"Corsola!" Coraline appeared on the platform with a sparkle.
Everyone awed in surprise as a Shiny Water Pokémon is on the field.
"Ashlyn will be battling with her Shiny Corsola, while Misty puts Politoed to the test."
"Ready..." The referee raised both flags in the air, "And, begin!"
"Politoed use Bubble attack." Misty started off.
"Politoedddd!" The frog Pokémon fires Bubble attack towards the shiny coral Pokémon.
"Blizzard Coraline." Ashlyn countered.
"Corsolaaaaaa!" Coraline opens her mouth and blew cold snowy wind towards the incoming Bubble attack, freezing them and they fell into the water.
"Corsola has frozen the Bubble attack."
"That's was a brilliant defense strategy, but were not beaten yet! Politoed use Bounce!" Politoed bounces into the air and struck one leg out, ready to kick.
"And Misty fights back."
"Coraline, Ice Beam on the field." Coraline jumps backwards, dodging the Bounce attack and froze the entire water with an Ice Beam.
"Unbelievable! Ashlyn has her Shiny Corsola freeze the entire water!"
"Now Icicle Spear!" Ashlyn said.
"Corsolllaaaaa!" Coraline fires Icicle Spear towards the toad Pokémon.
"Politoed use Protect!" Misty defend.
"Politoed!" The frog Pokémon brought up a green barrier around itself, before the Icicle Spear strikes it.
"And Politoed protects itself from the Icicle Spear, talk about a close shot."
"Coraline once that Protect is down, Liquidation." Ashlyn told her Coral Pokémon.
"La!" The shiny coral Pokémon nodded.
"Politoed use Water Pulse." Misty ordered.
"Corsola Corsola!" Coraline disappeared for a split second, into liquid water and before anyone asked, she tackles the frog Pokémon hard, sending it flying into the wall.
"Politoed!" Misty exclaimed, worriedly.
"What just happen?!"
Misty blinked confused.
"Liquidation. Coraline used Liquidation." Ashlyn said, simply.
Misty cursed, "Politoed, can you continue?" She asked.
"Poli- Politoed!" The frog Pokémon nodded, slightly, exhausted but still able to continue.
"Liquidation is a very interesting attack. Before anyone could notice it."
"Okay, lets go! Use Bubble Beam!" Misty commanded.
The frog Pokémon jumps into the air, "Politoed! Politoed!" It then fires Bubble Beam towards the shiny coral Pokémon.
"La!" Coraline dodges it.
"Try a Hydro Pump!"
Coraline stood still as the Hydro Pump strikes it, her body was glowing mirror glaze like.
Misty forgotten, "Oh no, I forgot!" She shouted.
"Corsola!" Coraline used Mirror Coat to redirect the Hydro Pump back to Politoed, twice the power.
"Poli! Poli-toeddd!" It cried out in pain.
"Oh! And Politoed takes more damage."
"Tackle it." Ashlyn said.
"Corsola! Cor-SOLA!" The shiny coral Pokémon tackles the frog Pokémon hard, crashing into the wall once again, creating a spiderwebbed cracks behind it.
"Politoed!" Misty exclaimed out in horror, as her Pokémon is knocked out by a strong Tackle attack.
"Politoed is unable to battle!" The referee declared, raising the red flag, "Corsola wins."
"Looks like Politoed couldn't handle anymore attacks. That Tackle attack did it. Ashlyn and Corsola wins the first battle."
"La!" Coraline called out happily, as she walked on the ice, back to Ashlyn's side. "Corsola!" She jumped up and down.
Ashlyn smiled at her shiny coral Pokémon, "One down."
Coraline beamed happily, "La!"
"Misty must now choose her second Pokémon."
Misty thought for a moment, she takes out a Pokéball, "Well, Feraligatr let's go!" She sent out the Big Jaw Pokémon.
"Gatr!" Feraligatr said when it appeared.
"Do you want to continue Coraline?" Ashlyn asked.
Coraline nodded, "Corsola!"
"Okay. I'm keeping you in."
"Ashlyn will stay with her Corsola, while Misty battle with her Feraligatr."
The referee raised both red and green flag, "Begin!" He announced.
"Feraligatr, Hydro Pump!" Misty commanded.
"Mirror Coat." Ashlyn countered.
"Feraligatrrrrr!" Feraligatr fired Hydro Pump from its mouth towards the shiny coral Pokémon.
"Corsolllaaaa." Corline redirected that Hydro Pump back with more power.
"Counter that with Dragon Pulse." Feraligatr fires a greenish orb towards the Hydro Pump, canceling each other out. "Quick Water Pulse!" The Big Jaw Pokémon immediately fired a bluish orb.
"La! Corsolaaaa!"Coraline was hit by the Water Pulse and send into the unfrozen area, water.
"And Water Pulse hits its mark. Can Corsola make a recover?"
"Coraline! Recover!" Ashlyn called out.
Coraline began to glow yellow, recovering herself.
"Oh no you don't! Feraligatr use Scald!" Misty commanded.
"Feraligatrrrrrr!" Feraligatr fired Scald across the ice field, melting the ice and into the water.
"Corsola! Cor!" Coraline finished recovering about a few seconds ago and she swam backwards, avoiding the Scald attack.
"Icicle Spear!" Coraline fired a sharp ice spears from the water.
Icicle Spear appeared out of the water and into the air, falling down towards the Big Jaw Pokémon.
"Watch out Feraligatr!" Misty warned. "Dodge!"
Feraligatr dove into the water.
"Ice Beam on the water!" Ashlyn ordered.
"Corsolaaaaa!" Coraline fired an Ice Beam from her mouth and it hit the water, causing all of the water to freeze.
"Get out the water Feraligatr!" Misty called out.
Feraligatr was only half way out of the water when the ice beam hit the water, causing it to freeze Feraligatr at the waist.
"Oh no! Feraligatr!" Misty shouted.
"And Corsola has frozen Feraligatr in the water. Will this be it?"
"Stone Edge." Coraline summoned shards of rocks around herself and sent them towards the Big Jaw Pokémon.
The Stone Edge hits the half frozen Feraligatr, injuring it.
"That Stone Edge hits it mark."
"Feraligatrrrrrrr!" The Big Jaw Pokémon cried out in pain.
"Nature Power." Coraline opened her mouth and fired a Hydro Pump, hitting the Big Jaw Pokémon, breaking Feraligatr out of the ice and sending it crashing into the wall.
"And Nature Power becomes a Hydro Pump, that hits Feraligatr."
"Feraligatr!" Misty looked at her Pokémon who collapsed onto the water, with swirling eyes.
"Fera... Gatr..." It said, unconscious.
"Feraligatr is unable to battle. Corsola wins and the match goes to Ashlyn." The referee declared.
"What a battle. Ashlyn advances to the next round."
================================================
The gang, Volkner and Flint were all talking about the matches.
"You're Ashlyn Ketchum aren't you?" A female voice questioned from behind them.
"Huh?" Everyone looked behind them.
There stood a woman, maybe a little bit older than brock, who had long light brown tied in a side ponytail. She wore a red blouse and long light pink skirt, white sandals, and a pair of round amber colored earrings. She wore a bracelet on her left wrist and a necklace around her neck. She looked familiar to Ashlyn.
Brock instantly blushed and clasped his hands together with a dopey smile, "It's you! The winner of the today sixth match! You won your battle flawlessly!" He complimented.
"Thanks." The woman smiled.
Misty narrowed her eyes at Brock with suspicion, "How do you know that?"
Brock stood up proudly, "One thing I never have trouble remembering is the face of a pretty girl," Then he took out a small book and looked through the pages, "This book helps me with their names."
Misty sighed heavily while Ashlyn, Volkner, and Flint sweat-dropped.
"Toge Toge Toge!" Togepi chirped.
"Hello, is there something I can help you with?" Ashlyn asked, the woman.
"Just saying hi. I'm Trinity Takami and I'll be facing you in the third round." The woman introduces herself.
"Oh, it's nice to meet you Trinity."
"Ashlyn, I've seen you battle and I'm very impressed with the way you battle. Your tactics are excellent." Trinity complimented.
"Thank you very much for the compliment."
Trinity smiled, "Tomorrow match is going to tough but it's also going to be great." She said and she held out her hand, "I wish you good luck tomorrow Ashlyn."
Ashlyn shook hands with Trinity, "Good luck to you as well."
"Now give it your all, don't you go easy on me Ashlyn."
"The same to you. Trinity."
Both Ashlyn and Trinity nodded to each other.
===========================================
"It's a beautiful day of the Whirl Cup, as we enter in the third round competition. With only sixteen Pokémon trainers left, the competition is fierce. The winner of today's battle will move onto the semifinals tomorrow."
Both Trinity and Ashlyn entered the colosseum.
"First up, Trinity versus Ashlyn."
"Same rules as the second round. Each trainer is allowed two Pokémon." The referee announces.
Both Ashlyn and Trinity sent out their Pokémon at the same time.
"Genji, lets do this." Ashlyn said.
"Greninja." The shiny ninja Pokémon appeared, standing on the platform.
"Lets do it, Gyarados." Trinity said.
"Grrrr!" The atrocious Pokémon roared.
"And Begin!" The referee raised both red and green flag into the air.
"Gyarados, Hydro Pump." Trinity said.
"Use Cut." Ashlyn countered.
"Gyarrrr!" The atrocious Pokémon launched a burst of water from its mouth towards the shiny ninja Pokémon.
"Nin!" Genji held out both hands and a kunai-like weapon appeared, he dashed towards the Hydro Pump, running on top of it and slashed Gyarados twice.
"GRRRRR!" Gyarados roared out in pain.
Trinity gasped, "Gyarados!"
"Don't let Gyarados recover! Genji use Gunk Shot." Genji fired a poisonous blob from its mouth and it hits the atrocious Pokémon.
"G-gyara..." Gyarados roared in pain.
"Oh no. Gyarados is poison." Trinity said, worriedly.
"This battle is sure fast. First Gyarados uses Hydro Pump, missed its mark and Greninja attacks it twice with its Cut attack and now Gyarados is poisoned by the Gunk Shot."
"End this with Quick Attack and Night Slash!" Ashlyn said.
"Nin! Greninja!" The shiny ninja Pokémon dashed across the water and it Tackles the atrocious Pokémon into a pillar and then slashed it twice with its Night Slash attack.
Gyarados couldn't handle anymore attacks and the poisonous kicked in, making the atrocious Pokémon collapse into the water with swirling eyes.
"Gyarados is unable to battle. Greninja wins." The referee declared, raising the red flag.
"Gyarados had no chance against the speedy Greninja."
Trinity recalled Gyarados back, "Its okay. We won't expecting a speed Water Pokémon. Well then, I got another plan!" She sent out her next Pokémon.
"Chinchou!" The angler Pokémon appeared.
"Trinity second Pokémon will be a Chinchou."
"This gotta be interesting huh Genji." Ashlyn said to her Pokémon.
"Ninja." Genji nodded.
"Ashlyn is staying with Greninja."
"Begin!" The referee announces.
"Electric Spark." Trinity commanded.
"ChinchouChinochouChinchou Chinchou!" The angler Pokémon fires electricity into the air.
"Chinchou has started off by shooting Spark into the sky."
Ashlyn looked up. She knew what Trinity's move was about to do, "Genji, Double Team and Smoke Screen."
"Nin! Greninja!" Genji immediately multiply himself into seven, in different area on the field.
As the electric struck down, it missed, hitting a copy one.
"Gren-ninja." The shiny frog Pokémon covered the area in smoke.
"I can't see anything with this Smoke Screen and either can both trainers."
"Chinchou stay alert!" Trinity shouted, warning.
"Ice Punch." Genji used his senses, to sense where the angler Pokémon is and dashed from platform to platform, he reeled his fist back and punches Chinchou, sending it into a pillar.
"Chinchou!" Chinchou cries out.
Trinity couldn't see, "Chinchou!" She exclaimed.
"It sounds like Chinchou was hit."
"Clear the smoke." Ashlyn said.
Genji jumped into the air and onto a pillar, "Greninja." He blew and cold wind appeared.
"It's Icy Wind and it's clearing up the Smoke Screen."
As the Icy Wind was clearing up the smoke, soon it was all cleared up and revealed Chinchou, in the water.
"Now we can see!"
"Electro Ball!" Trinity said.
"Chin-chou!" Chinchou fires an Electric Ball.
"Nin." Genji easily dodged it by jumped to another pillar.
"And Greninja avoids it by moving to another pillar."
"Dark Pusle." Ashlyn said.
The shiny ninja Pokémon fired a Dark Pulse towards the water.
"Substitute!" Chinchou replaced itself a copy and the copy was hit by the Dark Pulse, "Now Scald!" It fired a boiling hot water from it mouth, out of the water.
"Nin." The ninja Pokémon dodged it again.
"Bubble Beam rapid fire!" Chinchou fired Bubble Beam from the in the water into the air, towards the ninja Pokémon.
Genji continued to dodge the Bubble Beam attack.
"Neither Pokémon are giving up."
"Ice Shuriken Genji." Ashlyn said.
"Ninja!" Genji jumped into the air, avoid the water, he used Water Shuriken and then froze it, he then tossed it into the water.
The Ice Shuriken hits the water, creating a huge splash.
"Did that Water Shuriken combined with Ice Beam hit its mark?"
"Chin-Chou..." The angler Pokémon said, with weakly as it was resurfaced.
"It did!"
"Chinchou!" Trinity exclaimed, worriedly, as her Pokémon is completely, exhausted.
"Once more, Water Shuriken!" Genji launched a Water Shuriken this time.
Chinchou was sent flying backwards and crashing into the wall, "Chinchou!" It cried out.
Trinity gasped, "Oh no!"
"Oh, and Water Shuriken has hit Chinchou."
Chinchou collapsed into the water and resurfaced with swirling eyes.
"Chinchou is unable to battle!" The referee declared, raising the red flag, "Greninja wins!"
"A thrilling match ends with Ashlyn edging out Trinity for the win. Advancing to the final round."
The audience cheered.
Trinity sighed, she picked up Chinchou who was awake, "It's okay Chinchou. You did your best." She praised, "I'm proud of you." She returned her Pokémon.
"Chinchou." Chinchou nodded, before returning back to its Pokéball for a rest.
Ashlyn high five her Greninja, "Excellent work Genji. We won." She said.
"Greninja." Genji nodded.
================================================
Back at the Pokémon Centre, night has appeared, Ashlyn was looking up who is her opponent for the next match.
"Hey Ashlyn." Trinity greeted as she walked up to them.
"Trinity, hello. How is Gyarados and Chinchou doing?" Ashlyn asked, concerned.
Trinity smiled, "They're going to be fine. They'll make a full recovery by tomorrow." She assured her.
Ashlyn sighed in relief, "That's good to hear."
"You're a tough opponent. I had a lot of fun battling against you and your tactics." Trinity complimented. "Your next opponent is a trainer named Bert Henrikson and he's a talented trainer."
"Um, he mostly used his Feraligator throughout this competition." Brock remembered, "I remember that he barely changed Pokémon at all."
"Yes. His Feraligator is very strong, so I have no doubt that it would be his first Pokémon tomorrow." Trinity commented.
"I see." Ashlyn said.
"But don't worry, I'll be rooting for you in the match tomorrow." Trinity smiled.
"Thank you Trinity." Ashlyn smiled.
