In front of Wes, the attacker reaveled itself. 200 meters straight from the position Wes was standing , a wild Charmeleon with a look full of excitement for battle could be seen.
Wes immediately used his system to check the status of this wild Charmeleon.
Charmeleon: male LV 21 Ability: Solar Power Item: no
Moves: Scratch, Growl, Ancient Power (Baby), Dragon Pulse (Baby), Belly Drum (Baby), Ember, Smokescreen, Metal Claw (Tutor), Dragon Rage, Scary Face.
WES: !!!!!!!!!!!! What the heck?
Wes was immediately startled from this Charmeleon's summary.
"Hidden Ability check, Dragon Pulse already check, a special damaging Rock Type Move check. BELLY DRUM oh my GOD Arceus what's wrong with this Charmeleon???? It can be a very powerful Special attacker and if special attacks don't work i can simply use the Gen 2, Gen 3 BellyZard strategy. Ok you are definitely mine."
WES: Umbreon use Sand Attack.
Umbreon immediately threw a pile of sand on Charmeleon's face. Charmeleon used its Dragon Pulse. The blue sphere full of draconic energy hit Umbreon.
WES: Umbreon use Sand Attack again.
The same exchange took place again. Only this time the aim of the Dragon Pulse launched by Charmeleon was a bit wide.
WES: Umbreon use Quick Attack.
Umbreon dashed really fast towards Charmeleon and hit it, sending it 4 steps backwards. Charmeleon roared and used its Scratch Move to hit the Umbreon.
WES: Umbreon use Curse.
Then Umbreon used its Curse Move lowering by 1 stage its Speed stat but also rising at the same time by 1 stage its Attack and Def stat. Charmeleon hit Umbreon once more with its Dragon Pulse.
After that exchange Charmeleon lunched again its Dragon Pulse.
WES: Umbreon use Protect then Curse.
Umbreon was instantly enveloped by a green dome and Charmeleon's Dragon Pulse was diflected when it came into contact with it. Then Umbreon was enveloped by a mysterious aura.
WES: Great Umbreon use Curse again.
Umbreon again for the third time was enveloped by the mysterious aura from the Curse Move. Because of the wide angle of this Dragon Pulse Umbreon even though it was literally at -3 Speed was able to dodge it.
CHARMELEON: CHAAAAAAARMEEEEEEEEL.
Charmeleon roared even more excited than before. then as it used the Move it had trained to defeat the wild Geodude leaving on this area. Metal Claw. It's claws shined in a grey metallic luster and then it moved fast towards Umbreon hiting it in the process. Umbreon for the forth time used its Curse Move.
WES: Umbreon use Wish.
Then a star seamed to fall from the heaven as Charmeleon used its Scarry Face Move to lower even more the Speed of Umbreon (-4-2=-6) so that it won't be able to dodge its attacks anymore.
WES: Umbreon Protect then Curse.
Charmeleon attacked with its Dragon Rage Move this time. But this always 40 damage Move was also deflected like the previous Dragon Pulse. Then a light coming down from the heavens fell on Umbreon and combined with the dark red aura of Curse for a combination that would for sure score high in a Pokemon Contest. From the light Umbreon recovered 50% HP while Curse rised its Attack and Def stat by 1 stage. This time Umbreon's Speed stat wasn't lowered because it was at the maximum -6.
WES: Umbreon one final Curse.
Umbreon used Curse for the sixth time maximising its Attack and Def stat. Charmeleon used its Ancient Power Move, lunching numerous big chunks of rock to Umbreon. Charmeleon was very lucky because the 10% chance to increase all of its stats was activated.
WES: Umbreon Wish then Quick Attack.
Then a star fell again from the heavens. Charmeleon Dragon Pulse hit Umbreon but it immediately started to run at blinding speed leaving numerous afterimages behind it.
Charmeleon's instincts immediately screamed at it that this was a really dangerous situation so Charmeleon jumped towards its Left side like a Goalkeeper tring to catch a ball, behind a big boulder. Umbreon immediately changed its direction and smashed right through the boulder. Charmeleon was able to avoid Umbreon's attack by a hair. The big boulder was completely destroyed. Charmeleon instantly counter attacked using its Dragon Rage Move.
Umbreon use Protect.
Then the Dragon Rage Move of Charmeleon was yet again deflected by Umbreon's Protect Move. Then a light came straight down from the heavens at restored the HP of Umbreon.
WES: Umbreon use Confuse Ray.
Charmeleon instantly jumped behind a boulder avoiding the mysterious energy lunched from Umbreon's eyes.
Charmeleon POV:
Charmeleon couldn't have asked for anything better. This fight with this strange black Pokemon made it push itself to its limits and beyond. It felt that the bottleneck it was facing turn loose very fast. It was so excited because even with all its hard training to defeat those Rock Type Pokemon. Its attacks couldn't do anything to this strange black Pokemon.
It felt that if the current situation didn't change it would lose for sure. So with a huge roar it decided to stake it all. In its hart it already accepted this trainer as the one that will be responsible for it, reaching the top of the strongest Pokemon. But it didn't want to go out with out a fight. So it started to hit its belly multiple times using the Belly Drum Move.
Wes POV:
Umbreon use Qui.....
Wes was ready to give Umbreon its next order but his voice was overshadowed by a huge roar.
CHARMELEON: CHAAAAAAAAAAAARMEEEEEEE
EEEEEELEEEEEEOOOOOOON.
Then Wes saw Charmeleon hiting its belly multiple times.
" I see. so at this final stage of the battle, you risk everything to win. I like such determination. I will definitely make you one of the strongest Pokemon"
WES: Umbreon get ready. The final confrontation is beginning.
UMBREON: Umbreeeeeeon!!!
Umbreon roared in confirmation towards its trainer.
Charmeleon finished its Belly Drum Move increasing its Attack stat to the maximum +6. Then a huge silver luster enveloped its claws. It looked like someone put a clawed armguard in its arms. Then it rushed towards Umbreon.
WES: Umbreon stand your ground then Payback.
Umbreon stood in its place preparing to receive Charmeleon's Metal Claw Move. Then Charmeleon came close and slashed with both its claws its opponent. Umbreon took the hit and instantly a huge menacing and murderous smirk appeared on its face.
Charmeleon was shocked by that and it immediately tried to jump backwards to avoid being hit. But before it jumped it saw Umbreon's body enveloped by a dark spooky aura and its red eyes glowed in a bloody red colour. Someone could discern a bloody mist coming from those eyes combining with the dark sura of the Payback Move. Then as Charmeleon jumped backwards Umbreon smashed its body on Charmeleon. Charmeleon flew like an F1 car with enabled DRS and smashed through 4 boulders.
Through shear will Charmeleon didn't faint. it just stayed down totally flat on the ground. With its half open eyes it saw the weird black Pokemon and its trainer come close to it. Wes bent his knees and touched Charmeleon's forehead.
WES: Nice battle Charmeleon.
Charmeleon smirked in defeat. Then it saw this trainer pull a strange red and white ball.
WES: From now you are one of my Pokemon. Welcome to the team.
Then as Charmeleon smiled Wes touched it with the Pokeball and Charmeleon went inside. After 3 distinct sound effects Charmeleon was caught.
Wes immediately sprinted towards the entrance of Mt. Moon since next to it there was a Pokemon Center. Charmeleon needed a lot of care after it received a stab doubled powered +6 Payback. Wes finally reached the Pokemon center. After an hour he got his Pokemon back and he immediately entered Mt. Moon.
