40 Chapter 39

"Gardevoir full power psybeam!

The bird quickly dashing at the downed Gardevoir at record speed is able to dodge most of the psybeam but still getting hit tanking, the psybeam Altaria hits Gardevoir with a direct sky attack knocking it out of bounds, fainted.

* * *

Brendan retrieving Gardevoir, sends out his next Pokemon.

"Swampert!"

"Swampert, use screech then rock throw!"

Brendan shouts. Winona not wasting anytime either starts to shout.

"Altaria, protect then dragon pulse!"

WInona shouts. Swampert, after successfully using screech hurls a few rocks at Altaria. Altaria dodging two, then using protect goes on the offensive and uses the dragon pulse.

"Swampert protect then use more rock throws!"

The dragon pulse heading in Swamperts direction gets deflected as a blue sphere surrounds Swampert.

Swampert with another chance starts to hurl more rocks at Altaria. Altaria dodging the rocks with swift and beautiful movements, uses a disarming voice that disgruntles Swampert.

"Altaria hurricane!"

Brendan hearing this starts to panic.

'God damnit I have no counter to her moves, I can't do anything in this position.' Brendan screams inwardly. "Swampert surf." Brendan says in a weak voice.

Swampert, getting hit by the massive hurricane, isn't able to counter with any moves to save itself.

Altaria seeing this goes in for a sky attack getting a direct hit leaving Swampert dazed and weak. Altaria still close to Swampert, finishes him off with a quick dragon pulse.

Brendan now shakily taking out his last Pokemon, sends out his last Pokemon.

'He's my fastest Pokemon. He will be able to at least dodge most of Altarias moves.' He says to himself, still trying to rectify the situation, thinking it's still fine.

"Sceptile!"

The grass Pokemon looking around spots an Altaria quickly closing in on uses extreme speed to dodge.

"Sceptile double team then grassy terrain"

Sceptile hearing, its trainer quickly uses a double team before another sky attack proceeds to hit a clone itself. Now, with an opportunity, Sceptile is able to use grassy terrain.

"Altaria use disarming voice then hit the real Sceptile with dragon pulse!" Winona says smirking, WInona knowing that Sceptile can't hide for much longer now because of the spread attack of disarming voice.

"Sceptile detect!" Brendn screams.

Sceptile, just finishing the grassy terrain, suddenly gets hit with noise, making it growl out loud. Not even a few seconds later a purple, blueish beam could be seen speeding towards him. Hearing his training Sceptile uses detect.

Unfortunately for Sceptile isn't able to fully dodge the dragon pulse, getting barely hit Sceptile is sent a few steps back.

"Sceptile use leaf storm!"

Sceptile now with his grassy terrain set-up, works up a monstrous leaf storm now heading straight for Altaria. Winona frowning at the sight, shouts her next orders.

"Altari use cotton guard and tailwind to reduce damage." Winona shouts

Altaria quickly using cotton guard and tailwind at the same time, clearly looking as if it has trained that combo before, is easily able to use both moves. The leaf storm hitting Altaria, sending it a distance away, dealing a decent chunk of damage.

"Sceptile, finish it off with energy ball!" Brendan quickly shouts, wanting a quick hit to finish Altaria off.

Before Sceptile can use any grass energy, the whole battlefield is filled with a draconic aura. Before anyone could react, a huge dragon rushes at Sceptile, sending it towards the wall, fainted.

Silence. . . .

Nothing can be heard as Brendans last Pokemon is taken out with a dragon rush by the Altaria, ending the match.

Brendan, finally realising what happened, looks at his downed Sceptile with a sad look, fists clenched.

Quickly retrieving his Pokemon Brendan silently leaves the stadium as the audience starts to applaud Brendan and Winonas match.

*POV ( WINONA )*

As I watch Normans kid, I can't help but feel guilty seeing his downed face after seeing my main team ace Pokemon.

I would usually never use my ace Pokemon unless it's a person with 8 badges, but quickly remembering what Norman told me, I quickly understood why.

His kid Brendan, was getting too confident and proud. He walks into the gym willy-nilly without any strategy to counter my flying types, just trying to depend on his Pokemons pure strength.

Of course his Pokemon are monsters, he only has five badges, but has Pokemon like that on his team already.

It's amazing enough he was able to make Altaria serious, but to get her riled up enough to use a full powered dragon rush is insane!

His Pokemon are amazing but lack the instinct of a predator.

They're more like soldiers that only listen to their trainer and without his instructions are completely useless.

He needed a reality check.
