*Note: Thank you all for your incredible comments and impressive reviews, I am very happy that you are liking this fic and at the same time sad for not being able to bring you chapters every day.
Unfortunately, I currently don't have time to write two chapters a day and translate them, so I do it every two days, but I will try to try to bring in some extra chapters from time to time.
Another thing, I'd like to say that, while the girls fall in love with Ash quickly, they must understand that there are many girls and they probably increase, so... I hope you understand that I can't wait too many chapters for the girls to fall in love with Ash, Anyway, I hope you understand.
Another thing, tell me which crystal onix for Ash and Roxanne or not? Obviously it would be one for each.
...
Both Pokémon flew off due to the impact of their amazing and strong attacks, however, in the end only one remained standing while the other fell completely fainted on the ground.
"Geodude fainted, Buneary wins!" – said the receptionist.
That's right, after the crash and due to the accumulated damage, Geodude couldn't take it anymore and fell to the ground weakened, the Black Belt had done its job much better than Ash had predicted.
However, Buneary also seemed tired because Geodude's blow was also very hard.
"You've done well, Geodude, now go back and rest" – Roxanne said with a smile.
Roxanne wasn't sad about losing her first Pokémon, for gym leaders this was a very common.
"Buneary, you should also come back, you've done great, but you're too tired" – I said hugging my little Pokémon.
"Neary" – Buneary nodded.
In fact, she also believed the same as her trainer.
Seeing her nod, I returned Buneary to her Pokéball.
"You may have fainted my first Pokémon, but there's still another one left and I assure you it's not easy to knock him down, go ahead, Nosepass!" – Roxanne said.
Roxanne threw her Pokéball and from it came a Nosepass with an expression like a... Nosepass.
"A Nosepass, as expected of a Hoenn Gym leader" – I said.
"I'm sorry I don't use Kanto Pokémon, but other than Geodude, I don't have any other Kanto Pokémon with me" - Roxanne said.
The truth is that it was true, currently Roxanne only had two Pokémon, Geodude and Nosepass.
"It's okay because no matter what Pokémon you use, it will be my victory!" – I said with a confident smile.
"We'll see" – smiled Roxanne.
Ash's determination was something she must admire.
"Go ahead, Bulbasaur, I choose you!" – I exclaimed.
Then, Bulbasaur came out of her Pokéball ready to battle.
"Oh, another Shiny Pokémon, you seem to be a lucky trainer" - Roxanne said.
Shiny Pokémon, even in this world, were extremely difficult Pokemon to find, in fact, in real life, finding a Shiny was like looking for a needle in a haystack, so you understand, getting a Shiny in video games like Leaf Green or Emerald, is extremely easy compared to getting them in this world, that's how difficult it is to get a Shiny Pokémon.
"I'm just lucky" – I said with a shrug.
It's true, it's just luck.
"Then let's try that luck, Nosepass, let's get started, use Rock Throw!" – Roxanne exclaimed.
"Pass!" - said Nosepass.
Then, Nosepass used something akin to psychic powers as suddenly, pieces of rock raising from the ground and were thrown towards Bulbasaur.
"Bulbasaur, dodge it and use Leech Seed!" – I exclaimed.
I'm going to finish this quickly, so Nosepass couldn't do anything.
"Saur!" – said Bulbasaur.
It was time to prove her skills in battle.
Bulbasaur dodged Nosepass's attack very easily and then, from her back, she threw a kind of seeds that headed straight towards Nosepass.
"Don't dodge it and use Rock Tomb instead!" – Roxanne exclaimed.
Roxanne knew that, with Nosepass's speed, dodging that attack was totally impossible, so she decided to receive it and take advantage of that moment to giver a heavy blow to Bulbasaur.
"Pass!" - said Nosepass.
Then he did the same as when he used Rock Throw, but this time the rocks were bigger and faster than before.
"Dodge it!" – I said.
But I underestimated the speed of the rocks and Bulbasaur couldn't dodge them in time causing both attacks to hit.
Nosepass was entangled with numerous vines while Bulbasaur was sent flying, taking a big damage from that attack.
"Are you okay, Bulbasaur?" – I asked.
"Saur!" - Bulbasaur nodded.
"And you, Nosepass?" - asked Roxanne.
"Pass!" - Nosepass nodded.
But suddenly, the vines glowed and drained life from Nosepass, then a ray of green light hit Bulbasaur recovering her wounds a bit.
"This is bad..." – Roxanne said.
Now that he was covered in vines, if Ash's Bulbasaur resisted long enough, her victory was assured.
"We won't give up, Nosepass, use Rock Tomb again!" – Roxanne exclaimed.
Again, huge boulders headed at a great speed towards Bulbasaur.
"Now, yes, dodge them!" – I said.
But when Bulbasaur went to move, she realized that her speed had slowed and she couldn't dodge all the rocks causing one to hit her.
"Bulbasaur!" – I exclaimed.
"A side effect of Rock Tomb is that it slows down the movement who is impacted" - Roxanne said.
It's true! How could I forget something so obvious? No, it's not that I forgot, it's that I thought that in this world that side effect didn't apply, but I was wrong.
In that instant, the vines drained some of Nosepass's strength and gave it to Bulbasaur who now felt better than before.
"I may have forgotten that, but it doesn't mean we've lost, Bulbasaur, use Energy Ball!" – I exclaimed.
Bulbasaur nodded and threw a green sphere straight towards Nosepass.
"Break that sphere with Rock Tomb and finish her!" – Roxanne said.
Nosepass nodded and destroyed the Energy Ball with its rocks causing a small smoke screen to rise.
"Now, Bulbasaur, use Vine Whip against the ground!" – I said.
The only way to make up for our lack of speed was this, was to devise a way so that Nosepass couldn't launch his attack, and what is his weak point? That's right, Nosepass can move his face sideways, but I've noticed that he can't look up, so that's the way to hit an attack on him.
"Saur!" - Bulbasaur nodded.
Then, Bulbasaur used her Vine Whip and rose a few feet into the air by getting on top of Nosepass.
"Is that possible?!" – Roxanne exclaimed in surprise.
In all her years as a gym leader, she'd never seen a strategy as crazy as that.
"Energy Ball and finish Nosepass!" – I exclaimed.
Bulbasaur nodded and threw a powerful Energy Ball toward Nosepass.
"Nosepass, use Tackle but up!" – Roxanne exclaimed.
Nosepass used the powerful strength of his legs and propelled himself upwards with the intention of hitting Bulbasaur.
"Too late, the Energy Ball will hit you!" – I exclaimed.
"And who said I wanted to dodge it?" – Roxanne asked.
"What?" – I asked confused.
I underestimated the strength of Nosepass's legs, because in the blink of an eye, he was already at a considerable height and hit the Energy Ball head-on, causing a strong explosion that sent both Pokémon flying.
Due to Nosepass's proximity to Bulbasaur, the blast wave also reached her and so she was sent flying.
"Bulbasaur! Are you okay?" – I asked.
"Saur!" Bulbasaur nodded.
But she was struggling to get to her feet, as apparently the shock wave and the impact on the ground had damaged her quite a bit.
"Nosepass! How are you?" – I asked.
"Pass..." – said Nosepass.
Nosepass could barely get up, but the next moment, the vines drained what little strength Nosepass had, causing him to fall to the ground fainted and, at the same time, the vines disappeared without a trace.
"Nosepass fainted, Bulbasaur wins, and therefore the winner is Ash from Pallet Town!" – exclaimed the receptionist.
For a moment my mind went blank, have I won? Did I won my first gym battle? Have I taken my first step as a Pokémon trainer? My mind couldn't process it for a few seconds, but in the end I realized the truth, I had won and it wasn't a dream!
"We won, guys!" – I said while hugging my Pokémon.
"Congratulations, Ash!" – Celeste said.
Due to the joy of the moment, I let myself go and gave Celeste a big hug that lasted several seconds.
When she was suddenly hugged, Celeste was surprised, but she didn't try to get away, in fact, in Ash's arms she felt safe, as if nothing could hurt her, it was such a pleasant feeling that she didn't want it to end...
"Ehem, I'm sorry to interrupt your flirting session, but let me congratulate you for your victory" – Roxanne said.
