Pokémon Furukawa- Chapter 62- Single League Finale! Is This The End of My Pokémon Journey?

 

Hit Points, Physical Attack, Physical Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense, and Speed: Those exist in every Pokémon. Using them masterfully along with the right item, ability, typing, move set, mechanic, team balance, care and love, and of course brilliant thinking mid battle will lead the trainer into victory!   

August 29, 2019- The final day of the Pokémon League. Miakko and Shirr took the two prior days to relax and have fun before the intense match they are going to have. This means… I had to suffer. Shirr's "relaxation" was to have eleven hours of sex session with her future husband. And I had no choice but to look at her so I won't miss any crucial information. Jokes on me! Aside from sayings such as "I want you to be the mother of my future children!" and "I'm coming!!!!!" only to get into another erection right away, I got nothing. It was brutal and those two days were some of the worst days in my life. At least when I watched Miakko I didn't suffer. But aside from hanging out with her parents, and Matoi which I noticed the two were hanging out more than the usual, it wasn't anything worth to tell about. Not that I have anyone to talk to anyway…

 

The match was about to start. GYM Leaders Sabrina and Surge were watching at the upcoming match. "So those two girls are our target?" Surge asked.

"Yeah. We must make them pay."

"Surge! Sabrina!" Lance noticed them. "You are alive! I've thought you were dead! You went missing after Divoc started, and nobody knew your whereabouts. Where have you been?"

"We had some business." Sabrina answered.

"For two years? You two could have said at least something."

"Yeah you are right." Surge said. "By the way, how is Clair doing?"

"Clair is dead."

"I'm so sorry to hear that-" Sabrina's words were ignored once Lance saw Hassel breaking another table.

 

Waiareas and Ryu were cheering for Miakko. Alicia came as well. Ben decided that he will babysit on their newborn daughter Ashley so his wife could watch his wife's adopted daughter for over than ten years. While it is obvious that Katsuya and Sayoko will cheer for Shirr, Brazle wasn't so sure to whom to cheer for. From the beginning she believed that she will cheer for Miakko, but after Shirr defeated her she gained appreciation and admiration for her.

Miakko and Shirr greeted each other, and said obvious things such as 'I wanted to battle you for so long' and 'I won't lose', and the match started.

Shirr summoned her Crobat, while Miakko summoned her Toxtricity. "Zen Headbutt!" Shirr ordered. The move did a lot of damage, but still didn't defeat yet the ugly electric frog. Miakko ordered her ugly frog to use to use Overdrive, which was able to defeat Crobat due the STAB and the type advantage.

Shirr summoned her Kleavor, the bug type with its sharp axes as hands.

'A Stealth Rock is coming.' Miakko was thinking. 'But it won't work on me!' Miakko summoned her Espeon "Espeon's Ability, Magic Bounce, will negate it!'

Kleavor used its move, and the Stealth Rocks appeared on Miakko's side on field. Espeon was damaged as well. "Just as planned!" Shirr smiled.

"What… just happened?" Miakko didn't understand what is going on. "Why do I have Stealth Rock on my side of the field?! Magic Bounce was supposed to reflect the move back to you!"

"That's because I've used Stone Axe. It is a damaging move with a side effect of summoning Stealth Rock." Magic Bounce reflects only Status moves, but not damaging moves.

Miakko was in shock "…Since when?"

"'Since When?' An interesting question."

"Just answer! I'm asking since when you had this move on your move set!"

"Then I'll ask you; since when you were under the impression that I didn't have this move?" She answered to Miakko as she was starting to grasp what she did. "Your Charizard is clearly the single strongest Pokémon that all of the trainers in this League have. I'll have to admit; I don't think I can defeat it on a direct battle. Your Charizard's biggest weakness is Stealth Rock; losing half of it Hit Points when being hit by it. But I also knew about your Espeon as a way to overcome this weakness. Therefore I had to use Stealth Rock against Sayoko and Brazle so you would think that's the move I have and you'll try to prepare for it, while you can't."

Miakko was silent for twenty seconds and then got excited "Shirr! That's amazing! You've planned our battle for so long. That's a strategy of a true champion!"

"Thanks! Let's continue!"

 

"Psychic!" Miakko ordered her Espeon to deal some damage before it faints. It wasn't enough to defeat the bug, but did a nice damage. Shirr ordered her Kleavor to use X-Scissor and defeated the Espeon.

Miakko summoned her Krookodile. It was damaged by the Stealth Rock. Miakko ordered it to use Earthquake. The cool crocodile defeated the axe bug. "Krookodile's ability activates! Moxie! It increases it Physical Attack once it defeats a Pokémon!" Miakko called.

Shirr summoned her Walrein. Krookodile attacked again with Earthquake with even higher attack force. It was so close to defeat Walrein but it missed short the kill. Walrein was ordered to use Surf, and by that, defeating it.

Miakko's next Pokemon was Toxtricity. "Overdrive!!!" Miakko ordered it to use the electric type move. And by so, the Walrein was defeated.

"Miakko, how does it feel, being at the finals? I'm glad that you are my final opponent." Shirr said.

"It is exciting, my blood pressure is high. But it is also sad." Miakko answered.

"Sad? Why?"

"Because my journey is very close to end."

"Yeah… I will miss you. That's why I'm going to give you the best battle as I can. Thanks to you I've returned to be trainer, which led me to meet Katsuya. I have so much to tell you before you go but then… there is him."

"Yeah… him… he doesn't let people talk during the matches…"

Lance glared at them; waiting for them to stop talking and continue the match.

"Lance you need to calm down." Hassel said. "Let's do a therapy. Here, break a table."

"I'll break your bones first!"

 

"I summon you! Infernape!" Shirr called.

"Overdrive!" Miakko called. She hoped to do as much damage as she can before her frog faints. Shirr ordered her ugly monkey to use Calm Mind. The monkey moved first and increased its Special Attack and Special Defense stats, which by doing so it lowered the damage from Overdrive. On the next phase Shirr's monkey attacked with flamethrower and defeated the frog.

Miakko's next Pokémon was her Chandelure. It was damaged by the Stealth Rock as well. Shirr's ugly monkey attacked first with Thunder Punch, but it wasn't enough to defeat Chandelure. "Psychic!" Miakko ordered and defeated Infernape with the Super Effective move.

"Go! Maushold!" Shirr summoned her family of mice.

"Oh those are those Pokémon! The mice that are in incest relationship." Matoi said.

'Shut up Matoi' the mother Maushold showed a note.

"Shadow Claw!" Shirr ordered and Chandelure was defeated.

Miakko's next Pokémon was her Tsareena. Miakko didn't know much about Maushold aside from the fact it is a Normal type, and it is faster than her Tsareena, but she believed she can endure a hit and defeat it with a fighting type move.

"Population Bomb!" Shirr ordered.

"High Jump Kick!" Miakko ordered.

Population Bomb is a move that calls for as many Maushold mice as it can. Each time it hit, they will call for another one. They are bullies, if you had to ask me…

One hit! Second hit! Third hit! Forth hit! Fifth Hit! The sixth hit missed, and Tsareena managed to survive. But not for long…

She jumped in the air to hit with High Jump Kick, missed Maushold, and crashed into the ground and caused herself to faint…

"Now Miakko! Summon your Charizard!" Shirr called.

"Go Charizard!" Charizard was summoned by Miakko for his final battle; the one to decide who will be the winner of this journey. Charizard recalled his time from the day he met Miakko as a weak and young Charmander. And there he is, standing in front of his trainer and against her opponent- to win the most important battle he had in his life. Charizard felt an immense pain when he landed on his feet. It was the Stealth Rock. Charizard is one of the Pokémon that takes the most damage from this move; half of his Hit Points were gone. That why it was crucial for Miakko to reflect the Stealth Rock with Espeon, but she failed to do so by Shirr's trick. The trick she built for battles Miakko has only seen. "Mega Evolution!!!!"

"Population Bomb!" Shirr ordered. One hit! Second hit! Third hit! On the forth she missed. Charizard survived with only 15 percent of its Hit Points.

"Flamethrower!!!" Miakko ordered and turned Maushold into a Skitty's food.

"Let's go! My final Pokémon!" Shirr called with joy. "Gengar!" She clicked her Mega Stone "Mega Evolution! Use Thunderbolt!"

Miakko already knew the outcome of this battle as she saw Gengar comes into the field. Charizard was hit by the Thunderbolt and…

"Charizard has fainted. Miakko has no Pokémon left!" Lance called. "Therefore the winner of this battle and the champion of the single Pokemon League is Shirr Massel!"

Miakko was disappointed but said "I'm glad it is you. You were my goal all along. I'm glad that you were the one to defeat me."

Shirr grabbed Miakko's hand and shacked it "Thank you. You were my best battle ever."

"It is such a shame." Waiareas said. "After what I've said that Miakko will win…"

"It is okay Waiareas. Miakko need to experience loses sometimes." Ryu said. "The real problem… we still haven't thought about the other issue."

Leon came to the field and gave Shirr the champion's trophy. A high amount of cash will be sent to her bank account, and a bit lower amount to Miakko's, as the second place.

Miakko and Shirr were about to leave but Leon then said. "Miakko! Wait! I have something to tell you."

"What is it?" Miakko asked.

"Your Charizard's size. This thing isn't normal. There is a legend that some Charizards with abnormal sizes can attain a new form. But no one has seen that the form yet. Since the day I met you I've researched with some of the oldest trainers who had a Charizard and in short, the conclusion we got is the way to attain this form is that Charizard must train by himself apart from their trainer. Unlike Mega Evolution that a bond must be created in order to use it, this unknown form is a different kind of bond; the bond of being apart."

"That doesn't make any sense." Shirr said.

"No, it does make sense." Miakko said with a sad voice. "When I was apart from my parents for eleven years I didn't feel I need them as I had no memories of them. But when I saw them for the first time, even though not knowing they are my parents, I felt somehow an instant connection with them. This form's meaning is… 'longing'." Miakko summoned her Charizard and explained to him situation. She also explained she leaving forever because she going back to her original world. Charizard understood, and Miakko released it to the wild.

"Miakko. We should get going." Ryu came and same. "We are going to have a party for you two at Sayoko's house."

Miakko went to Moho Sama "Moho, you are going to send me to my original world, right?"

"Yeah. I promise. But first, you should enjoy the party, and then I'll send you."

Shirr said farwell to her parents. She said she is going to live at Pallet town at Kanto alongside Sayoko and Katsuya. She told them she'll call them for her and Katsuya's marriage ceremony.

 

"Surge. Sabrina. Follow them. I'll be coming soon with reinforcement. Don't do anything until I give you the order." Someone with an eye-patch said from afar. "Shirr Massel, and Blaze Girl; they'll pay."

After one day of travelling, everyone has reached Pallet town. Apparently Sayoko lived only a few streets from Alicia's and Ben's house. Sayoko had a stupidly high money amount in her bank account. I guess that what's happens when you win the Pokémon League's champion prize a year by year. Ben bought some snacks, and a lot of alcohol. Matoi took himself two beer cans and started drinking. He noticed that Waiareas and Ryu weren't drinking at all and were satisfied with cola. "Waiareas, aren't you going to drink?" he asked.

"No. I personally hate the thought of me not controlling my actions."

"Come one! That's the whole point of drinking; forgetting the bitter feelings in your life for a while."

"Your life is that bad, Matoi?" Miakko asked.

"To be fair; it isn't. And since I met you guys it is even better." Matoi answered.

"I wonder how Matoi acts when he isn't under control." Shirr teased him.

"Fine then I won't drink. It isn't healthy anyway."

On the other side of the living room Sayoko and Nog were talking. I just noticed them and didn't try to dive into their conversation. I wasn't interested anyway.

Brazle shouted "Guys! I want to say something! Listen!" everyone shut their mouth and let her talk. "I met Miakko when we were children. She is the one who has driven me to become a Pokémon trainer. I wanted to be strong like her! I had the chance to battle her once, which I've lost in that match. I could see how far she will get as a trainer. I hoped to challenge her again at the Pokémon League. But instead I got to battle Shirr. I knew Shirr was strong; she defeated Sayoko after all. But I didn't realize how strong she was until I've experienced that! And I don't know how to end my speech…"

Everyone applauded. "Brazle you speak like you didn't reach the third place yourself! This is party is for you as well!" Alicia applauded.

Suddenly, a gunshot sound was heard. Everyone was shocked. "Blaze Girl! Get outside!"

"This voice…" Waiareas said.

"Giovanni!" Katsuya called and rushed outside. "What are you doing here?!" Giovanni was at the street alongside with round 270 Team Rocket members. They were armed with guns. GYM Leaders Sabrina and Surge were along with him.

"I came to take you. Katsuya! As I've promised; I let you enjoy your time until the Pokémon League. Now, come back!"

Sayoko, Shirr, Brazle, Tanimura, Aaron, Moho Sama, Waiareas, Ryu and Miakko went outside as well. Matoi and Nog stayed at the house alongside with Alicia, Ben and Ashley. Alicia held Ashley close in her chest; protecting her as much as she could.

"Do you understand what you are doing?!" Sayoko shouted. "Opening fire at a town near people's homes?!"

"As if I didn't do this before; during the time I've met Blaze Girl?! And my eye is gone due to other girl! That's right; you! Shirr Massel!"

"Everyone! Summon your Pokémon!" Moho Sama called.

"Battling in this place! Amose, what are you thinking?!" Aaron called.

"We have no choice!"

Giovanni clicked his fingers "I knew you'll try to do that. I'll have to admit. With Pokémon you can clearly defeat us. Furukawa Waiareas, Furukawa Ryu, Kamidori Sayoko, Brazle Shine, Shirr Massel, and Blaze Girl. All of you are far stronger than us. But can you do it without Pokémon?! Try to summon your Pokémon!"

"Did you activate the same thing you did when I went to save Katsuya?" Shirr asked.

"Indeed. But I wonder on how much area it works now?!" he mocked her.

Brazle threw one of her Pokeballs and tried to summon one of her Pokémon "He is right! Pokeballs won't work against him."

"Furukawa Waiareas, Furukawa Ryu, it is such a shame I have to kill you. I'm the one who taught you the basics about Pokémon battling! Die!" he shot an electricity beam from his hands. Sabrina used her psychic powers and attacked Ryu. The battle was short; around five minutes. It ended up with most of Team Rocket's members' death, including Sabrina who was killed by Ryu, Surge who was killed by Waiareas, and Giovanni who was killed by Shirr and Miakko who defeated him together. At his death Giovanni felt humiliated to be defeated by the girls. They got so much stronger from the last time he fought them. Oh… and Alicia's home was destroyed… But none of Miakko's friends and family lost their lives. Miakko was sorrowful as she saw her home gone, but she was glad that everyone stayed alive. She knew the house had insurance anyway. Three days after the battle Miakko, Waiareas, and Ryu went to talk with Moho Sama. Miakko asked him to send her and her parents to their original world as he promised to do.

"About that…" Moho answered "I refuse!"


Writer notes:

There we have it. The Pokémon League arc is over. I'm glad I managed to finish it right before the release of Pokemon Legends Z-A, which will change the battle system of the games; perfectly fitted to the next story arc. I hope to buy Legends Z-A on release date, but that's depends on my local store. I hope the game will be good!
