First off MASSIVE shoutout to @KingJufair10 for helping me with this battle, secondly Thank You for being patient with me while editing this chapter, this one took a while because of the Exams I had......
Third Person
"ALRIGHT TRAINERS TIME TO BRING OUT YOUR NEXT POKEMON!" said the referee, "Drapion Stand by for battle" Said Paul as he brought out the Sand Demon Pokémon, Ash figured it's time to give out a few hints on who he was....'ok, here goes nothing' he thought, "Haxourous, I choose you" he said as he brought out the Tusked Dragon type...But it wasn't some Average Haxourous...This one was more massive that the others and was a shiny, the crowds gasped and started chanting even louder. Ash only used a couple of Pokémon to bring him to this stage of the tournament, namely Ninetales, Gengar and Haxourous as of now.
"Drapion Use cross Poison" said Paul, "Dragon Dance and then Dragon Claw" Blue Draconic aura surrounds Haxourous as his Attack and Speed is further boosted, Drapion moved in with his Poisonous Legs, But Haxourous dogged it with ease and landed the dragon claw at point blank range.
"What the??!! How?" Paul asked, Drapion isn't a slow Pokémon, even for its size but to be slowed that the massive dragon, "Dragon dance made Haxourous faster and so he hit Drapion before it could attack Haxourous" answered Ash, "that won't stop us from winning" said Paul, "Let the Pokémon battle the answer that query of yours" aid Ash with a smirk. Drapion use Night Slash said Paul, "Haxourous use Fire Claws" Ash countered, his tactics sinister.
The entire crowd gasped, "finish him" said Ash, Haxourous powerfully charged towards Drapion to attack him, "Drapion ceasefire and use toxic" said Paul, as soon he said that Drapion stopped and fired toxic at Haxourous, which made the now poisoned Shiny dragon to stop its attack, "Are you ok Haxourous?" asked Ash worried for his Pokémon. The Pokémon simply shrugged and growled. "Now use toxic spikes," said Paul, "We are not giving up so easily Haxourous use dragon dance" said Ash, "Drapion use Cross Poison again" Paul commanded as Haxourous set up with dragon dance. Haxourous got damaged severely from Drapion's cross poison and kept taking damage from toxic
"Just give up Anderson" said Paul, "You would be foolish to think that my Pokémon and I would ever do that" said Ash, "have it your way then, Drapion use ice fang", Ash smirks as Paul went in straight for his Dragon, he smirked as Drapion got even closer to Haxourous "fire claws," said Ash.
Drapion got in really close for his Ice Fang but Haxourous was quicker even with the poison effects and hit Drapion with the Fire Claws, "follow with Earthquake" said Ash, "Drapion get up and use leech life" countered Paul frustratedly.
Haxourous shook the ground with a powerful tremor effectively Hurting Drapion cancelling his attack, once the tremors died down, "Finish it with Ice Fang Drapion" said Paul, but alas his last-ditch efforts would not work out, "Haxourous...Hang in there and use Dragon Fire Claw" said Ash moving in sync with Haxourous' action of bringing Draconic energy into one claw and fires the heat of the Wela Volcano on the other.
The entire crowd were stunned
As Drapion was getting close Haxourous did the same moving towards Drapion, both attacks met each other at point blank range with full power, there was an explosion followed by a wave of powerful Aura, the force of the attacks could be felt by the viewers of the battle, but alas, one of them had fallen to the other....
"Drapion is unable to battle so the winner is Haxourous." said the referee, "Great battle Drapion now take a nice long rest" said Paul returning his Pokémon, "You were great Haxourous now take a nice rest, we'll need you again" said Ash, "You are much stronger than I thought Anderson" said Paul, "So are you Paul, Not many can make it that long with Haxourous, at a disadvantage none the less, Fret not we have a whole load of where that came from" said Ash smiling deviously, making Paul slightly worried, Paul knew almost all of Ash's Pokémon, This one was new, so was Ninetales, if he could make Haxourous this strong in a few months of training he could only imagine what battling against his Ace team would feel like, he didn't show his hesitation and smirked back at Ash and said, "Well take it on at full force"
"OK trainers send out your next Pokémon" announced the referee, "Gengar...Spook them" Ash said as the shadow Pokémon took its place, "Alakazam stand by for battle" Paul said as he revealed his choice, "Battle Begin" the ref announced.
As Soon as Gengar entered the battlefield the toxic spikes from earlier had disappeared, "I might not have that Advantage but I aint giving up" Paul said determined, "Alakazam Shadow-Ball" commanded Paul, "You too Gengar" said Ash, the two balls of darkness clash in the centre of the field causing a huge cloud of smoke, this showed the sheer power that the two Pokémon possessed.
"Go on Gengar, rapid Fire" said ash, as Gengar went on with even more vigour, seeing this Paul also did the same, the attacks were going in at full force, some hitting their targets and others not soo much but still causing lots of damage to the two Pokémon.
"Let's switch things up Gengar, use sludge bomb" said Ash, Paul smirked, "Alakazam use psychic and fire back at him" he said,
As the sludge bombs made their way to Alakazam he turned them right the way around now they made their way towards the Ghost-Poison type, "Oh you think that's gonna hurt?" Ash smirked, as the sludge bombs were absorbed by Gengar, Paul was shaken for a second but then felt dump for not remembering that Gengar was a part poison type,
"Argh now Alakazam use Psyshock" said Paul, "Gengar, Dark Pulse," said Ash, Both Pokémon fired their attacks, Dark Pulse won the clash and pushed the Psyshock towards Alakazam, the two attacks made their way towards Alakazam quick, but Paul wasn't faced by it, Ash understood why with his next command, "Teleport" he said, 'Oh no' thought Ash worried.
Alakazam moved away at the last moment effectively dodging the attack, "use Psyshock again" commanded Paul, "Dodge" said Ash, Though Gengar wasn't able to dodge in time and took damage, Ash was now getting slightly frustrated, "Gengar. We can do this... Shadow Ball" he commanded, "Psyshock" commanded Paul, this time the moves collided and caused another load of smog,
But then Paul did something Ash didn't think he would, "Alakazam Return" he said abruptly then added, "Go Gigantamax Alakazam", "So you wanna play that game... Gengar return" said Ash, the crowd roared as he used the band to enlarge the size of Gengar's PokéBall and threw it to reveal the now massive Gengar, [GMax Alakazam pic up top]
"Gengar, use G-max Terror" said Ash, "Alakazam, Max phantasm" said Paul, Both moves caused damage to each other, "Now Gengar use max darkness" said Ash determined to finish this quick, "Max Darkness" said Paul with the same vigour, yet again the moves collided but Gengar was hurt more because the move hit harder, "Gengar finish this....G-Max Terror" Ash commanded yet again, "G-Max Psycho Storm, lets end this" said Paul, turns out, that both Pokémon were equally matched, and tried to stand up even after the attacks hit, but almost instantaneously fell to the ground, going into their original forms.
"OH, WHAT DO WE HAVE HERE.... IT'S A DOUBLE KNOCKOUT!!!!" the commentator shouted, "Both Pokémon are unable to battle." said the referee
Both ash and Paul returned their fallen comrades, the two trainers look at each other and smirk,
"OK you both send out your next Pokémon" said the referee, "Bisharp... Stand by for battle." said Paul while throwing out his PokéBall to reveal Bisharp, "NOW THIS IS AN INTERESTING TWIST LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS MAN AARON HERE AS ONLY EVER USED THREE POKEMON IN THIS TOURNAMENT, LETS SEE WHO HIS FOURTH IS!!" the commentator announced,
"I choose you" was all that Ash said whilst throwing out his PokéBall, the crowds were stunned as a bipedal Yellow furred Pokémon materialized from the ball, "Zeraora, its time" said ash, Zeraora looked back at its trainer and nodded, the entire crowd was still stunned as the Referee started the battle.
