Noah Blaze was the uncle of Axel and little brother of Arron Blaze. He was a talented trainer and Hakone City had lots of hope for him. During his young years, he already had an elemental rank Pokemon. He was a promising trainer.
But all those hopes and all those dreams came crashing down when his Pokemon was permanently injured including himself.
He never showed it in his face or said anything but he never forgave Axel for what had happened to him. He knew that it was stupid to be angry with a 6-year-old kid. Whenever he looked at Axel, his heart melted with love.
Arron and his wife did everything to make Noah comfortable. Noah never thought of marrying anyone cause he felt that he was a failed man. But when Axel started his journey, everything changed.
1. Axel became the successor of the Pokemon master, Samuel Oak.
2. He won all the gym battles within 2 years.
3. He now had 8 pseudo-king rank Pokemon.
4. 2 of these Pokemon had already ranked up to king rank.
5. Axel cured him and Scizor and now Scizor was as powerful as ever.
6. Axel discovered new evolutions.
7. He also discovered the use of 'Ancient power'.
8. Axel gave him a Slowpoke and also used some mysterious power. Now Scizor was already a pseudo-king rank Pokemon and Slowking, a new and powerful evolution of Slowpoke was also reaching that stage.
9. Axel also gifted his younger sister a pseudo-king rank Pokemon
10. And the family was now a middle-class family but a rich family.
Everything that Axel accomplished, he knew that he could not have done anyone of them. He felt that his and Scizor's injury was one of the driving factors for Axel's rigorous training and achievement. So, after so many years, he felt that that day was not a curse but a boon to himself and his family.
###
It was already 8 p.m. and they were having a barbecue. Axel went overboard with the party. It was his second king-rank Pokemon. Of course, he was very happy.
Axel had also started to drink alcohol. Any teenager would be allowed to drink when they reach 13 years old. This was the rule of this world. However, his mother was still not happy when he drank alcohol. But since today was such a big day, his mother had allowed him to drink.
Red had now become a part of their family. Red had been here for a long time now. He would go to meet his son, Ash, once a week. Rest of the time he would be here training Axel and also his Pokemons.
Red, Axel, Arron, and Noah were now heavily drunk. Having an aura inside his body, Axel's alcohol tolerance was very high but he drank so much that he was now starting to get dizzy.
"Axel, I have something to say to you.", said Noah and turned towards Axel.
Noah was also drunk by this point in time. His body was wavering but his eyes were not. His eyes were directly looking at Axel. He looked very serious.
"Give all your best and become the Pokemon mAAASTER!!!!", said Noah in a loud voice. His voice was echoing in the dark night. Only the sound of fire burning from the wood was crying.
Axel also stared at his uncle for a good few seconds and replied, "I will uncle. I will do my best."
This was the first time his uncle had said anything like it. He felt more responsible now. He had to up the training from tomorrow.
After that awkward and wholesome moment, all of them ate their fill and went to bed.

On the day of the competition,
"Today we have gathered here for the 2nd 'Blaze Pokemon competition'!!!!", shouted Agnes with mike in hand.

All of the Pokemons participating in the competition gave their cheers. They were now ready for the competition.
There were banners everywhere on the training ground. There were also speakers around the training ground. There were balloons and many types of decorations. Agnes had gone all out for this competition.
Even the neighbors and other citizens of Hakone city had come here to see what the hell was happening.
"Now, before we go on to the rules of the competition, let's see what the rewards are…"
ROOOARRR
CRIII

The Pokemon went wild. That was why they had participated in the competition. It was for the rewards and to show others how powerful they really were.
"The rewards would be different from before. First, the winners would get a gold medal each. This is a sign that you have won the competition. The competition would be held every 6 months and the Pokemon with 3 medals would get an exclusive reward.
The reward would directly boost their powers to another level. Such reward would be searched and be given to you.
Now, for the immediate reward. The winner of today's competition could request anything that is not training or power-up related. Yes, you can ask for anything!!!!"
There were multiple cries and approvals from the crowd. Agnes spoke again, "Now for the rules. The rules are simple. The trainer would not help in the fight. The Pokemon would fight with other Pokemon on the same ranks and lots would be drawn for the fight. That is it.
Now, the list of Pokemons that would fight in this competition are:

All of these Pokemons were impressive. These were the Pokemons that Axel hoped to catch in the future.
"The first battle would be between Dragonite and Tyranitar. Clear the area and let the 2 of them face each other.", said Agnes
Everyone moved out of the way for the fight.
Dragonite and Tyranitar. Both of them were pseudo-legendary Pokemons and both of them were uncommon rank. This was going to be an interesting battle.
###
Dragonite Vs Tyranitar
Dragonite gave a huge roar before the start of the battle. It started to fly high and then used 'Flamethrower' towards Tyranitar.
Tyranitar also gave a roar and its whole body was now shining in silver light. It was 'Iron defense'. It also used 'Sandstorm' and now the sand started to brew around the surroundings.
It was nowhere as powerful as Steelix's 'Sandstorm' but it was enough to disturb 'Dragonite'.
The high speed of sand started to scratch its whole body. That was not a problem. The problem was that Dragonite could not fly properly anymore.
The 'Flamethrower' didn't hit the mark but as the flames were very big it did hit Tyranitar's shoulders.
Then Tyranitar did something that changed the course of the battle.
It picked up small rocks from the ground and threw them at Dragonite with a powerful force. The wind of the 'Sandstorm' was also helping his projectile. These multiple small rocks impacted on Dragonite's wings and its face.
ROOOARRRRR!!!!
Dragonite fell to the ground.
CRASHHH!!!!
Tyranitar didn't waste any time. It jumped as high as it could and smacked the ground. The ground started to vibrate at a rapid pace and the cracks started to form all around the training ground.
It was 'Earthquake'.
Tyranitar must have used a lot of power in that attack. Dragonite was heavily impacted by this attack. Its hidden ability 'Multi scale' could not come into effect as it had been hit before and it was not in full Hp.
Tyranitar then started to charge 'Hyper beam'. Things were looking gleam for Dragonite.
Dragonite took its stance and it also started to charge something. Both of them released their attack at the same time and ….
BOOOOMMMMMM
Dragonite's 'Dragon pulse' and 'Tyranitar's 'Hyper beam' collided and it caused an explosion.
Dragonite realized that its attack was weaker than Tyranitar's so it swiftly dodged the attack. Its wings started to shine and then it flew at low height to strike Tyranitar.
Since Tyranitar had used 'Hyper beam', it was tired for a brief time and Dragonite took advantage of it and hit it with 'Wing attack'.
BAMMM….
It didn't waste any time and then used 'Flamethrower' in close proximity.
The space around Tyranitar was now burning with fire. Dragonite went back and got ready to strike again. It thought about something and then started to have a weird dance.
This was 'Dragon dance' which would boost the attack and speed of the user. But the dance could not completed as a concentrated dark beam came at a fast pace and then struck Dragonite on its chest.
Dragonite was flown away by the impact of the attack. The attack's impact was huge.
After taking the attack, it started to stand up slowly. Tyranitar didn't waste any time and gave a loud roar.
ROOOARRR….!!!
Large point rocks came out of the ground and it started to strike Dragonite. Dragonite flew and started to dodge it but it was unable to dodge all of them and finally few of them hit it.
"DRago..."
It cried painfully and slammed its body to the ground.
This move was 'Stone edge'. A rock-type move that was supper effective against Dragonite. Tyranitar went to the rocks that had just sprouted from the ground and broke it. It carried those big rocks and started to throw at Dragonite.
"NOOO,, Dragonite!!! Dodge it!!!", shouted Agnes with worry.
Those rocks also hit Dragonite on its body and now it was crushed on those rocks.
This move was 'Rock slide'. Tyranitar may be very heavy for a Pokemon but this Tyranitar was quick to take action. By this time, the effect of 'Sandstorm' had already passed.
Axel knew that Tyranitar would win but he didn't think that the battle would be so one-sided.
"Huh??"
Axel looked towards Dragonite and it was slowly starting to stand up throwing those big rocks away. He just could not believe it. It was still not down?
'Is this the power of pseudo-legendary Pokemon?', thought Axel.
Dragonite had multiple wounds now but its eyes said that it was not going to give up. It was one tough Dragonite.
ROOOOOARRRRR
It gave the loudest roar and blue energy enveloped itself. The roar was so huge that it sent shock waves toward the whole training ground and Tyranitar seemed to be affected by it.
It flew at lightning speed high in the air. The effect of 'Sandstorm' was now over so it could fly without any hindrance.
It then opened its mouth and a viscous gas beam hit Tyranitar. After the attack was hit, Tyranitar looked stiff and it was trying hard to move. It seemed to be paralyzed. This move was 'Dragon breath' which it was trained for the longest time.
Dragonite then came to the ground and loud roar. It was still enveloped by that blue aura.
'This blue aura must be 'Dragon rage' but it should not be activated till now. Has the move been modified?', thought Axel cause it was possible due to Axel's talent.
Even though Dragonite gave a huge roar like something massive was going to happen, nothing happened. Tyranitar was now out of paralysis and it used 'Stone edge' again. However, this time Dragonite was ready and it swiftly dodged all the attacks.
Tyaranitar gave a loud roar and vibrations of the roar could be seen. It promptly hit Dragonite. This was 'Screech' which had lowered Dragonite's defense now.
It used 'Stone edge' again, which was again dodged by Dragonite but this time Tyranitar took advantage when it was dodging the attack and it came near Dragonite. It ran as its body was enveloped with a white aura and crashed into Dragonite's body.
The power of the impact was huge and…
BOOOOOMMM
a loud blast came from the attack.
Dust and rock flew into the sky and nobody knew what had happened. After the dust settled, everyone could see that Tyranitar was standing with some injuries all over its body while Dragonite was down.
This move was 'Giga impact'.
This move would also harm the user but the power of the attack was devastating.
"Dra… Dragonite….", it said and it slowly started to stand up.
How much defense did this Dragonite have? Was this Dragonite special or is it due to it being a pseudo-legendary Pokemon? This thought was running inside Axel's head.
A bright light obstructed Axel's vision and he looked up to see the culprit. Axel could see 3 balls of fire coming from the sky heading directly towards the training ground.
"What is that?", asked Axel.
"That is 'Draco meteor'. This Dragonite is very talented.", said Red with a smile.
'Dude, why are you smiling? That thing is coming to hit your Pokemon.', thought Axel but he didn't voice it out loud.
There was nowhere for Tyranitar to escape. As those balls of fire came near, Axel realized that they were big. Big enough to hit Tyranitar even though it tried to dodge.
And then….
BOOOOMMMMMMM
