Chapter 59 - Final round ( Part 1)

Seeing that Alex was defeated without even forcing Nidoqueen to go all out made his two friends Lance and Lorelei doubtful about his prospects of winning and were sad about this outcome.

But the reaction of the a_d_u_l_ts were completely different.

Giovanni was blankly looked at Alex on the outside but in the inside he knew just how powerful his Nidoqueen was.

This Nidoqueen was a reserve member of his main team. Each of them as strong if not stronger than the Elite four.

They all were of different types and not a single consistent type. And yet a young trainer could hurt his pokemon this much even with type disadvantage even though he raised it for years.

His two pokemons were strong but lacked in battle instinct and experience, as well as slightly weaker compared to their counterpart of same level.

But now his strength was worth investing upon and the results will be fruitful. He then looked at Agatha who was in deep thoughts.

He knew earlier Alex was just someone worth looking at but now he is someone who should be brought to the team at any cost.

Giovanni thought as a leader,' Had I known about him earlier I would have him join us right under .e but now the chances are low. With the old coots protection he will be protected.'

Yet as a strong pokemon trainer he was looking forward to the future of this trainer. He felt like he was once again facing Red and this time he doesn't want to lose.

The two elder Trainers too knew that this Nidoqueen was a member of Giovanni main team.

To reach this level already spoke greatly about his ability.

Surge himself was impressed by it. Though there weren't much electric type move used the power battle was something worth watching.

Agatha on the other hand was delighted to see another old friend. The fist power of the current electabuzz couldn't be compared to the Electrivire from the her past.

If he was here, the outcome would be completely different and the Nido had to battle all out in order to survive.

The last pokemon made her think what it might be?

The referee said ," Challenger please send out your last pokemon."

Alex pulled his last pokemons out. He threw his pokeball in the air and out came a pick bipedalism pokemons with a crown on it's head and a red-white scarf.

It was a Slowking.

It looked leisurely at the people in front and just stood with it's hand at it's back.

Although he seem leisurely the Nidoqueen took him seriously and knew that this pokemon was strong. Her instincts tell her that.

All the audience as well as the contestants were waiting for the referee to start the battle.

The referee too declared," Let the battle begins!"

As soon as it was said, Alex declared," Surround the entire field with water."

Slowking slammed it's legs on the ground and the battlefield started to sink under it's psychic force. Then suddenly waves of water appeared and surrounded the entire field with water.

The ground was already weakened because of the manipulation of Earth by the earlier pokemons and this softened layer submerged by the pressure of Slowking psychic powers.

The Nidoqueen had not got much time but it still used it's Earth powers to raise some platform.

As she was trying to raise more platform Slowking distracted her by his attacks.

He sent water guns as well as psybeam to attacks.

Giovanni seeing the new battlefield said," Since you were at disadvantage in terms of power, you tried to change the battlefield itself impressive."

"It only worked because it was a gym battle or I don't think you would let me try my moves. After all you could have stopped it before hand." Alex said.

Giovanni didn't say anything just smiled.

" Slowking water pulse and try to prison it."

" Freeze the battlefield "

In the audience,

" Oh no the advantage Alex had will be gone." Lorelei said.

This battlefield not only favored Slowking being a water type but also put restriction on Nidoqueen's movements.

Lance just clenched his hands and the elder Trainers just looked at the battle because they knew he would have a plan got this too.

In the battlefield,

" Bring a tsunami"

And slowking using it's dual power of water and psychic rose the water few metres high wave and tried to smother Nidoqueen in the middle.

Seeing no way of breaking through from all direction, she just rose her platform higher up.

She rose a little above the tsunami waves and survived the onslaught

Had the audience too weren't showered with the water, they won't think someone could summon a tsunami like that.

Slowking subsided the attack and looked at the Nidoqueen up high in the platform. She was shocked by the attack means of these pokemons

Their eyes silently clashed and both reached a little agreement that the first round was over and the next and much more explosive round is now coming next.

Will the Slowking be able to defeat Nidoqueen or will Akex lose badly with not even able to take down a single pokemon? Stay tuned.
