System In Pokemon World! - Chapter 9
AN: Slightly shorter chapter.
Brock shouted “Same rules!” I nodded as he threw out Geodude and said “I won’t be going easy even if you helped me out before.” I grinned and said “I didn’t want it any other way!” I took out a pokeball and threw it revealing Beedrill.
Brock was surprised that I didn’t do the same strategy and smiled saying “You already expected me to have a counter for what you did before correct?” I nodded and said “Cheap tricks only work once.” Brock nodded and said “Alright let us start! Geodude use dig!”
I was surprised as Geodude suddenly dug underneath and disappeared from view. I frowned and said “Beedrill fly up and use Agility!” Beedrill flew up and used agility giving it a boost to its speed. Brock smiled and said “Now Geodude!” Suddenly Geodude exploded outwards throwing dozens of rocks into the sky.
I smiled back and said “Beedrill dodge and use Pin Missile!” Beedrill glided through the rocks easily. The last 2 days I trained Beedrill to dodge trees in the forest making it easier for it to dodge rocks now. Sending Pin Missiles which were whites blasts towards Geodude Brock shouted “Harden!” Geodude body suddenly appeared to become more define as it resisted the Pin Missiles.
“Geodude us Rock Smash and knock more rocks into the sky!” I shouted “Beedrill use agility and stop it by flying it into the sky!” Geodude gripped its hands together and tried slamming the ground but Beedrill was faster as it appeared from behind and lifted Geodude into the air.
It was clearly not an easy job as Beedrill became unstable as it flew. Nonetheless I shouted Tossed him away and use Fury Attack!” Brock shouted “Geodude use Harden and defend yourself!” Geodude used Harden but Beedrill attacked it at a terrifying rate and once they crashed on the ground Beedrill returned towards me looking slightly tired. I didn’t blame it since it was a high speed battle and it must have used a lot of energy.
Geodude who was covered by dust for a while was finally revealed to be fainted. Brock smiled and said “Great work Geodude. Return.” Geodude disappeared and Brock said “You did an amazing job combining those moves. Agility allowed your Beedrill to stay a step ahead while Pin Missile gave it the safety of distance. Once Geodude was in the air I couldn’t do anything.”
I smiled and said “I didn’t do anything. Beedrill was the one training I just gave a few instructions. Now then, it is time to rest Beedrill.” Beedrill nodded as I had it return to its pokeball. Brock smiled and said “Let see how you deal with Graveler now.”
He threw out a pokeball which summoned Graveler that practically had fire in its eyes showing that it was waiting for this fight. Shaking my head I summoned Butterfree and said “It was an interesting battle last time but this time I won’t mess up!”
Brock nodded as he said “Alright Graveler remember your training! Use Rollout!” I frowned knowing that this Rollout would be one heck of an attack causing me to shout “Butterfree use Stun Spore all around the field!”
Butterfree began using Stun Spore while dodging several rocks that were shooting at it. I was correct since this Rollout was designed to rip up the terrain and throw rocks everywhere. Seeing this I shouted “Butterfree us Psychic and gather all the Stun Spore around Graveler!”
Butterfree eyes shone causing Brock to panic and shout “Graveler quickly knock Butterfree down!” Graveler shot into the air but Butterfree who was struck once expected its move and dodged it letting Graveler fall into the field as the Stun Spore covered it completely.
It’s movements once again slowed down as Graveler collapsed on the ground. I looked at Brock and said “Should I finish this or do you surrender?” Brock sighed and said “I surrender. I didn’t expect you to do that using Psychic to move the Stun Spore onto the enemy making it impossible to dodge. What a devious strategy.”
I laughed and said “I couldn’t think of anything else instead of that to force your Graveler to stop.” Graveler had already returned to its pokeball and Brock took out his Onix saying “We’re here again but this time you have an even greater advantage huh?”
I nodded and said “It was hard training. Of course it would pay off. Now then lets continue the fight. Butterfree use String Shot and blind Onix!” Brock shouted “Oh no you don’t! Onix dodge and use Body Slam on Butterfree!” I frowned and shouted “Dodge it and try again!” Butterfree barely dodged Onix by flying down and leaving the area of effect.
It was still damaged by splash damage as rocks flew all around hurting it. Butterfree flew up with difficult and shot another String Shot. Brock shouted “Onix block it with Rock Throw!” I grinned and shouted “Butterfree use Psychic and guide it to its eyes!” Butterfree used Psychic and successfully blinded Onix but it was also hit by the Rock Throw knocking it out.
Having Butterfree returned to its pokeball I said “You did your part. Now it is up to Beedrill.” I took out Beedrill and said “Beedrill use agility and Fury attack! Go around Onix striking it!” Brock gritted his teeth as he shouted “Onix use flail and try to knock it away!”
Beedrill began to fly quickly around Onix while striking it. Onix tried to twist and move its body to slam Beedrill away but it was just too quick! Beedrill took advantage of Onix current state to easily defeat it as Onix couldn’t defend itself.
Finally after several minutes of the continued onslaught from Beedrill Onix could no longer endure and collapsed on the ground. Beedrill flew back weakly towards me while I became excited and jumped shouting “We did it! We did it!”
Brock sighed as he smiled. It was a hard fight but he was genuinely impressed. No many trainers used strategy to win but instead use their raw power. It happened to him in the previous three matches but now someone that clawed his way up proved to him power was not everything.
Having Onix return to its pokeball he walked over and handed me the Boulder Badge saying “Here. You earned it.” I grinned as I took it saying “Thank you Brock.” He nodded and asked “Are you planning on participating in the league this year?” I shook my head and said “Next year.”
Brock was surprised as he said “The league only happens every 3 years.” I froze hearing that. Every three years!? What have I’ve been doing!? It took me 3 weeks to beat 1 gym! I need to speed up! Brock laughed as he said “Don’t worry about it. I’m sure you will make it. I recommend you head to Cerulean city and fight the gym there. I won’t give any details but I’m sure you will win. Good luck.”
I nodded and said “Alright take care of yourself!” He nodded as I left and went on the pokemon center to treat my pokemon. Afterwards I began heading to Cerulean city for a new adventure. I had a smile wondering what next will happen.
Cliff-kun: Damn this author! Don’t end it like that! There is no mystery! Do you want to drive me out of a job!? Sigh, whatever!
