66 Chapter 66

"Charmander, clap their cheeks!" I quickly brought out my first and favourite fire type.

Just as I did though, the smoke fully parted and my eyes widened. Because, Wartortle definitely was not waiting to see what was going on.

Rather, its arms were held up above its head, mouth wide open and a massive aqua blue sphere larger than it was tall crackled above it.

Oh shit!

Seems he was planning the same thing as me.

"Blast Burn!" I quickly commanded Charmander.

Charmander didn't even bother nodding or anything, he just saw the situation and leapt into action. With a loud cry, the little fire type clenched his fist, bright golden light erupting around it and then punched downward at the same time Wartortle heaved and threw the massive sphere of crackling water power it had conjured.

At the same time, the ground shook, massive cracks appearing throughout it and heat spilling up through them alongside golden light.

And then, from underneath Wartortle a massive explosion erupted into a pillar of flame and blotted it from view, even the brief cry of pain it gave was washed away by the sounds of roaring flame.

And I lucked out.

Because neither Gary nor Wartortle apparently expected me to switch out Shiftry and the massive Hydro Cannon it fired? It flew right over Charmander's head, barely skimming the little fire type before shooting off into the air and exploding with enough force to make the very air shake and make my ear drums pop.

For a brief moment, what felt like a torrential downpour rained down atop me and Charmander and I felt myself wincing as the sheer energy contained in the water it expelled zapped at my skin, and Charmander was no better.

By time it died down, so to had the massive pillar of fire that enveloped Wartortle.

To show the water type starter on one knee, charred and bruised, but still very much ready to rumble.

I really did almost gape at it, 'This thing really is a fucking monster. It took Shiftry's Hurricane, plus two of its own Aura Sphere's and Charmander's Sunny Day enhanced Blast Burn!'

Then again, this is the pokemon that would one day go on to completely molly whop Ash's Heracross, Muk and Bayleef then almost take down Charizard.

"Dragon Dance, then Flamethrower!" I snapped out a pair of orders, not wanting to give Wartortle any chance to recover.

"Char!" Charmander swung his tail around, forcing his entire body to rapidly rotate like a spinning top, a flaming orange aura billowing up around his body.

He skidded out of it a moment later and quickly unleashed a massive stream of flame from his mouth, quite a bit bigger than usual thanks to the Sunny Day up above.

"Mirror Coat!" Gary quickly counted himself.

Just before the flames impacted Wartortle, a glowing shiny gleam blossomed over its body. It grunted as the flames smashed into it, but a split second later, they rebounded off of its body and shot back towards Charmander twice as fast.

"Quick Attack!" I countered right back.

White energy exploded from Charmander's feet and he shot to the side, an instant later the massive flame impacting his previous position and charring it black.

With Dragon Dance enhancing his speed and Quick Attack, Charmander was a complete blur to my eyes, just like Shiftry.

"Mega Punch!" I shouted as the blur of a fire type raced towards Wartortle.

The blur launched at Wartortle, closing in rapidly and I saw a brighter orange explode within the billowing cloak.

"Counter!" Gary roared.

Charmander came out of his blur and unleashed a fist enhanced by bright orange energy straight into Wartortle's cheek, at the same time the middle staged starter pokemon's body gleamed with a red outline.

Wartortle cried out in pain as the blow to the face bodily lifted it into the air and sent it flying over ten feet, but at the same time, a shock waved erupted from its body with exactly twice the force that Charmander had struck out with and impacted against the little fire type before he could do anything.

The sheer force of it sent my pokemon skipping across the ground like a ragdoll and falling into a limp heap.

Wartortle landed in a heap itself, but almost immediately began to crawl its way to its feet.

Arceus, fuck! What does it take to put this motherfucker down?

"The hell, is that little lizard on steroids or something?!" Gary gnashed his teeth.

That's the fucking pot calling the kettle black innit?

"Wartortle, quick while it's down Life Dew and then Aqua Ri-" quickly began to issue some really annoying orders.

But, he was cut off, and not by me.

But rather, by Charmander pushing himself to his feet and beginning to roar. It started off squeaky, before all of a sudden becoming louder and deeper, a proper roar.

And then Charmander erupted into bright glowing light and before my eyes began to grow, practically doubling in size, while a horn like shape began to emerge from the back of his head.

"...You've gotta be fucking kidding me." Gary gaped.

I on the other hand, well excitement filled me. Butterfree rampaged in my chest and my blood rushed with excitement.

Quite frankly, it was probably a miracle I didn't get a giant throbbing erection.

A split second later, the bright light shattered like glass to reveal Charmander, now bigger, with scales of crimson red and a large horn on his head. "Meleeeeon!" my now Charmeleon roared and pounded his chest with both hands.

My hands had clenched into fists without me even noticing it, and they were slightly shaking form the sheer excitement I felt.

He'd evolved. This is it! Just one more evolution and I'll have the legendary Charizard! The greatest pokemon in existence! The dragon of dragons, the king of kings, the god that even Arceus would bow to.

Before I knew it, I had tilted my head back and started laughing, "That's it! That's the fucking way Charmeleon!" I cheered, before punching out, "Now blow them fucking away with Dragon Rush!"

Charmeleon immediately stopped beating his chest and obeyed me instantly. Unlike Ash, there's no way my boy would ever disobey me!

Because I am the Charizard Master. The Donzard! Hahaha!

'Heh.' I shook my head and smothered my excitement a bit, before I went full on psycho.

For all the damage he took before as a Charmander from that Counter, it may as well have all disappeared now that he was a Charmeleon as he exploded forward and launched himself through the air towards Wartortle struggling to get up.

Bright blue fire ignited into existence around Charmeleon and formed into a massive flaming blue aura in the shape of a roaring serpentine dragon.

"Pro-" Gary quickly tried to order Wartortle to block it, but Charmeleon's speed enhanced through his evolution, still clad in his Dragon Dance Aura was simply too fast.

The roaring blue dragon of flame slammed into Wartortle and the ground shook as if a massive earthquake suddenly emerged, the cheerleaders behind Gary all squealed in fright.

A mass of smoke and debris was churned up into the air from the attack and it took a few seconds to begin to die down. But when it did, it was to show Charmeleon walking out of the plume of smoke and dragging the comatose Wartortle out of the crater his attack had created by one leg.

'Note to self, do not give handicaps just for the chance to see some wet boobs.' I thought to myself.

Well, at least not until me and my pokemon are much stronger.
