Ice Punch (Bea x Male Reader)

Bea vs. Y/N

(A/N: Art made by Jeetdoh on DeviantArt)

Y/N POV:

Y/N: "Wait, what?!" I ask, confused.

Bea: "I want you to battle against me, right here, right now! My Machamp against one of your Pokemon." She says, retrieving Machamp from its pokeball, and looking at me with a determined look.

Y/N: "I see, but why me?"

Bea: "I heard from Kabu that you were really strong, and seeing you training with me today, I could see that you have a great fighting spirit within you. I just want to test it out; consider this, the last part of my training!" She says, looking at my eyes, still holding that determined look.

I could her determination and fighting spirit, and I knew I couldn't say no to her.

Y/N: "Alright, you want a battle?"

I grab one of my pokeballs, and Froslass emerges from it.

Y/N: "Then, let's battle!" I say, looking at her, with determined eyes, matching hers.

(A/N: The Battles will be a strange hybrid between game battle style and anime style, like Pokemons can only hold four moves with them, and when they learn a new move, an old one is deleted; some Pokemon's abilities will make their appearances in battle, like Snow Warning, Sand Spit and Snow Cloak; new moves will be learned by training and that includes movements taught by TM and TR.)

(A/N 2: Movesets shown in this scene might change as the fic goes on, and imagine in this scene, imagine both Pokemon around the same level, so the battle seems balanced.)

(A/N 3: I suck at writing fighting sequels, so the result might not be too good)

(A/N 4: If you still have questions about battle system, I can try to explain it better in the comments.)

Bea: "Machamp! Use Fire Punch!"

The Machamp charges at Froslass with a fist covered in flames.

Y/N: "Froslass, don't react just yet! Wait for my go!"

Froslass looks back at me, and nods, while the fighting-type Pokemon keeps approaching us.

Y/N: "wait."

The Machamp gets closer.

Y/N: "Wait."

And closer.

Y/N: "WAIT!"

Then, the muscular Pokemon gets close enough, and there is the go signal.

Y/N: "FROSLASS! USE DOUBLE TEAM!"

Froslass closes her eyes and creates an exact clone of herself. I see that the Machamp stopped charging, and looks at Froslass, confused about which one is the real one. I notice that Bea is also confused with the scene happening in front of her. I smirk and continue with my plan.

Y/N: "Now, use Hail!"

The plan is simple: use hail to boost Froslass's evasive because of Snow Cloak and overwhelm the Machamp with damage and exhaustion.

Bea: "Machamp! Try using Fire Punch on the one on the left!"

Machamp does just that and hits it, unfortunately for her, this was the fake one.

Y/N: "Froslass, Double Team again, but this this, more powerful."

Froslass uses it again, but this time, adding two more clones. Bea seems more frustrated but keeps barraging me with attacks.

Bea: "Once again, Machamp!"

It tries to hit Froslass again but misses the real one.

Y/N: "Froslass! Keep going, until you surround the Machamp."

Froslass keeps creating clones of itself, surrounding Machamp in a circle. The bodybuilder Pokemon looks so confused, trying to understand the current situation, and so does Bea.

Y/N: "Now, use Hex!"

Froslass and its clones began summoning purple flames in its palms, and Machamp begins taking damage.

Bea: "Machamp!"

Y/N: "Nice work! Keep going Froslass!"

I notice that Bea now understood my plan and calmed herself. What is she trying to do now?

Bea: "Machamp, use Bulldoze!"

Bea's Machamp punches the ground with a great force, making the ground shake violently, knocking Froslass of balance and popping all its clones.

I am still trying to recover from the current situation, but Bea has other plans.

Bea: "Now Machamp! Use Fire Punch!"

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to react fast enough, and Froslass is hit square in the chest by a flaming fist.

Y/N: "Froslass!"

Froslass is sent flying into my direction, and lands near my feet. I crouch down next to it to see if it was fine.

Y/N: "Froslass! Are you ok?"

It nods at me.

Y/N: "Can you keep going?"

It looks at me in the eye, and nods once again.

Y/N: "Ok, we are not done yet!"

Froslass get up, looks at me and nods. I smile back, but suddenly...I begin having flashes, from that day...the day I lost in the Hoenn League Final to Steven.

In the flash, Froslass just took a hit from the Metagross, got up and nodded at me, assuring that everything was going to be fine, but in the end; I lost, all of the expectations from Miss Glacia, all of the faith that I had in myself; it felt like my world collapsed in front of me, it has shaken me pretty bad...and now, I see that it still does.

With this flash, I failed to notice that Bea attacked me once again; I couldn't avoid it in time. Froslass took the hit, and fell into the ground, fainting.
