Chapter 139 An Another Evolution?

Skarmory got back to its feet and took the sky, just because Skarmory could fly and escape from Trapinch's ground attack, Trapinch could also do the same by burring himself in the ground and escape every attack from Skarmory.

Winona "Skarmory use Air Cutters"

Air Cutters were less energy consumption attacks and attacked with numerous small wind blades.

Trapinch was now just playing hide and seek with Skarmory, Skarmory has nothing to counter against Trapinch's dig, it was just like trying to save a drowning person with the help of a twig.

Seeing that Skarmory would just exhaust itself if it continues Winona made a decision.

Winona "I forfeit this round, Skarmory return"

It was humiliating for a gym leader to forfeit a battle but it was still a wise decision to not over exhaust your pokemon where it had no chance of winning.

Julian didn't say anything as he understood her decision, he was even pleased by the decision she made as it didn't hurt her pokemon.

Winona looked at the battlefield, she knew she needs something that can affect even when a pokemon is inside the ground and she had the perfect Pokemon for that.

Winona "Go Altaria"

Julian 'An Altaria, I don't know what kind of move set it has, this might be tricky'

Winona "Altaria use Sunny Day"

Altaria uses Sunny Day and suddenly the sun shines bright and the temperature rises, Altaria flew high into the sky and made it harder for Trapinch to see it due to the direct sunlight hitting his eyes.

Winona "Altaria use Solar Beam"

Due to Sunny Day, Altaria didn't need to charge up so it sent a powerful Solar Beam towards Trapinch.

Julian "Trapinch Dig"

Trapinch in the nick of time dug under the ground and disappeared, the Solar Beam hit the ground and completely destroyed it, it made a big hole right in the middle of the battlefield.

Winona "Now Earthquake"

Julian "Trapinch get out"

It was too late, Altaria was fast, it dived down with full speed as its body started to glow brown and when it landed on the ground the energy got transferred and a huge Earthquake appeared.

The Earthquake caused the battlefield to crack up and shake badly, Trapinch was hurt and was sent out flying from the huge hole created by Altaria before.

Winona "Finish it Arial Ace"

Julian "Not so fast, use Crunch"

Trapinch who was in the air adjusted his head in an angle to that his head pointed towards the incoming Altaria and he used Crunch.

Before Altaria could even hit Trapinch it came right under the attack of a huge dark jaw that shut down on it several times and exploded sending Altaria flying back and crashing on the ground.

Trapinch also crashed on the ground, but he rolled back to his feet by using the method Julian thought him when he would get stuck with his head upside down.

The Damage was big and Trapinch was hurt, Trapinch struggled to keep his head up and finally stood straight, suddenly he also started to glow.

Julian 'An another Evolution?'

Julian was right Trapinch is evolving.

His head started to shrink and horns started to appear, his body started to grow and became longer, his legs got longer and slender and wings started to grow from his back and small ones at the end of his tail.

Trapinch evolved into Vibrava.

Julian 'Wow, now that is a drastic change, he lost his physical attack and it got distributed in his other stats, his speed had gone off the charts, his special attack is also great, he lost few of his moves but gained many different types of moves, three of them are Dragon-type'

Julian was astonished by these changes, he knew Trapinch will go through some major changes but he didn't expect this much, this showed how good Trapinch's power was before evolution.

Winona was shocked by this again, a single pokemon evolving in a battle is fine, she had never seen two pokemons evolving in a single Pokemon battle.

Winona 'Well it might have just worked in my favor, now it has a weakness to Dragon-Type moves'

Winona "Altaria use Dragon Pulse"

Julian "Dodge"

Altaria took a deep breath and shot a powerful Dragon Pulse towards Vibrava, Vibrava just hovered on the spot as he looked at the incoming Dragon Pulse, suddenly Vibrava disappeared and appeared at the side of the Dragon Pulse, he dodged it with no sweat.

Winona "What?"

It looked at if Vibrava used teleport but he didn't, Julian saw everything, it was just slight movement of Vibrava's wings as he moved to the side with no effort, seeing this he was reminded of the dragonflies in his past life.

Vibrava's wings are still maturing so he can only fly for a short distance but he is still very fast.

Julian "Let's play around, Vibrava use Feint Attack"

Vibrava did his simple wing flaps and moved from one spot to another as if he is teleporting, Altaria is completely confused seeing this as it can't pinpoint where Vibrava is to attack.

Suddenly Vibrava appeared behind Altaria and used Feint Attack and sent Altaria crashing to the ground.

Julian "This has gone for too long, let's finish this, Draco Meteor"

Vibrava created a highly concentrated ball of energy and shot it up at the sky, as it reached its limits it separated and started to rain like Meteors on Altaria, Altaria had no place to escape and being attacked by the continuous Meteors it fainted after struggling for a second.

Winona stayed silent and called back Altaria, she had lost and as a gym leader, she has to honor the challenger.

Julian jumped off the platform on to the ground, he saw Winona also jumping off the platform as she glided down with the help of the special attachments on her clothes.

Winona "This is the feather badge, proof that you defeated me in a gym battle"

Julian "Thank you, by the way, don't feel bad because you lost so easily, I don't think there is anyone in Hoenn that can defeat me"

Saying so Julian walked away without looking at Winona, Winona had frozen on the spot when she heard what Julian said, then suddenly her face became red with anger.

Winona "Who does he think he is? No one in Hoenn can defeat him, Hmph, he has not seen what Juan, the elite four and the champion are like, he will definitely regret being so cocky"
