Chapter 252 - 39

The Pokemon that Rosy sent out is a quadrupedal Pokémon resembling a fully-grown lion. While its face, hind legs, torso, and the back of its front legs are blue, much of its body is covered with shaggy, black fur. The fur is longer around the shoulders and the base of the tail, and forms a mane on its head.

The Pokemon Rosy sent out was a Luxray, the final evolved form of the Pokemon his siblings have.

Meanwhile, Elsa chose the Pokemon which was unlike her past decision. this is not the ice Pokemon she revealed so far, instead she sent a bipedal, chicken-like Pokémon. The body is red with accents of beige, yellow, and gray. Behind its head, there are beige, hair-like feathers that continue downward and surround its c_h_e_s_t and abdomen.

It has a small red face with a V-shaped crest on its head. Its blue eyes are semicircular with yellow sclerae, and its mouth is similar to hooked beak. It has featherless, gray hands with three fingers each, and three clawed toes that are not normally visible due to the shaggy, yellow feathers on the bottom of its legs.

It is a fire and fighting type pokemon, Blazikan.

The next battle is between an electric, Luxray and a fire, fighting Pokemon, Blazikan.

After the two revealed their final Pokemons Rosy's Luxray and Elsa's contrasting Blazikan, the work of the commentator began.

But on the appearance of the two pokemons, Alex immediately called his Bill.

Looking at Alex's call, Bill picks up the call and asks," Alex, is everything all right? Is there a problem? Do you wish to speak to dratini or electabuzz?"

" No no, Bill. It is just that you better erect a barrier around the fighting arena. These two are at elite level. Although they have just entered the elite level, their battle can be a bit over the top and may affect the audience." Alex warns him about the future consequences if he didn't heed his words.

" How sure are you? How did you find their power level? " Bill trusts Alex but for the sake of confirmation asks him again and the method with which he detects their power.

" I have Gengar with me. " He said as if it explained everything.

And Bill did find that acceptable. "Ok. I will make the preparations necessary for audience's safety. " After which he puts down the phone.

Bill them turns to Captain Bark. " You heard him Captain. Make sure there are enough Mr. Mime around to create a strong barrier around the battlefield. make sure no one is injured in the aftermath."

" Because of the high level battle so far, the tournament Management has decided to up the safety measures for the audience. We don't think any audience is in danger, but to prevent such incidents certain precautions must be taken.

So we request the two trainers to withdraw for sometime until the preparations are done, and we will recall you for the battle.

We also apologize to everyone for this misconvenience. The Management will be given free snacks to all the audience. Please enjoy the treat and do not leave for the final round of the first semi final match would be much grander than the previous matches you have watched so far. " Marian said in her sweet voice filled with excitement and anticipation for the upcoming postponed match.

The two trainers decides to head back for the rest bay of the trainers with their pokemons tagging along as their trainer decides not to withdraw them into their pokeball.

With the audience,

Aurea mutters," Why did they delay the match? Surely their last battle isn't destructive enough to warrant this level of precaution."

A person by her side mutters," at least they aren't being partial. Neither of them have type advantage and hence they can start the battle with both at the common starting point." A blonde haired fashionable girl with a headphone in her ears said to her brown haired friend.

" But, waiting is so boring. It was just getting excited. Hey, Aurea you seem to know that girl don't you, why don't you go and greet her?" Another red or to be more precise marron haired girl asked to Aurea.

Although the blonde one didn't say anything her eyes said she agreed with the girl.

" Fine, let's go Elesa, Skyla. "

In the waiting area,

Alex and Lucius awaits Elsa and Rosy arrival.

After they entered the area, Julius arrived at Elsa side and greeted," Are you all right, your highness?" Since she used her ability, she may have to suffer from it's sequela as it seems she hasn't completely mastered those powers.

" I am fine, Julius. I am just a little tired. " She tried to reassure her friend and guardian.

Unlike Julius who rushed towards the trainers Alex goal are the two Pokemon Blazikan and Luxray.

He walks around them to see their physique and all the body parts.

Rosy and Elsa who watch this were confused but Elsa who doesn't seem to like Alex much and inquired him angrily," What are doing to Blazikan and Luxray?"

Her angry time doesn't affect Alex mood and he calmly answered ," I am just checking how strong these two really are. "

" Oh and how strong are they really?" Rosy asked jokingly. She doesn't think he can answer that.

A Pokemon true strength can only be checked by a psychic pokemons who are of same strength or are stronger. Some Pokemon who have strong relation to aura or ghost type too can serve as strength sensing. These are the ordinary situations when a Pokemon doesn't actively use his or her powers.

Only when the pokemon is fighting all out, can one see how powerful a Pokemon really is.

" They are at initial advance stage. And they may have evolved within a month, if I am not wrong." Alex revealed to them.

" What? How did you know?" Rosy shouted surprised while Elsa angrily said," What ? How do you know? Did you tell him, Julius." She glared at her guardian.

" No no your highness. I didn't say anything about it." Julius shook his hands and head while trying to convince Elsa that he has no part in this.

" how did you find it out?" Rosy asks him.

Alex didn't seem bother by this question and replies,"Your Luxray has barely gotten accustomed to his thick mane and long legs. I saw how he was getting irritated by his manes and the irregular steps he take while walking.

Same is the case with Blazikan. He has strong body and long legs. This takes time to get accustomed to.

Although you both are at advanced level, because of your lack of control over yourself I can guess your powers aren't under control too.

You both better be careful out there. I don't want to be a winner without going through the finals, else the people may think I cheated."

" Wait, you said finals but you haven't won yet, how can you be do sure?" Came a voice from the entrance. It is Aurea Juniper who said that.

" Because Ms. Juniper I know I am strong than him." Alex said while pointing his finger at Julius who just looked sideways not to be their face,"Hell even he knows he has no chance against me. "

Alex went back to checking the body of the two fully evolved Pokemon. He run his hands over their body.

Julius just whistles around while ignoring the curious looks he get from so many girls.

" Just who are you?" Aurea asked him just as Luxray almost got irritated by his hands and sent out thunder wave over his body. But Alex has already withdrawn his hands.

" Ahh. I haven't even introduced myself. I am sorry. I am Alex Bart from Floral town. Just so you know I am from Kanto region." Alex introduced himself.

After that, Aurea introduced herself,"I am Aurea Juniper from Nuvema Town, " she points to the blonde haired girl,who just nodded to him in greeting" she is Elsa from Nimbasa city," and then at the marron haired girl who actively waved her hands," And this excited one is Skyla from Mistralton City. "

" Hello" he said to them and before he could talk with them longer,Rosy inquired him," What were you doing to my Luxray? Why didn't you do it with her Blazikan?" Pointing towards Elsa amd accused him," Are you helping her cheat and win the match?"

Elsa looks miffed with her words while others contemplate whether it is true or false, Alex just laughed it off and said," This? My parents gifted my siblings with Shinx on their sixth birthday. As Luxray over here is their final form I was just checking things out.

I have to say the things I heard about them being too aggressive is true. If I didn't withdraw my hands then he might have zapped me. And, it won't be good for your Pokemon to attack me without reason." Alex subtly warned Luxray against unwarranted aggression.

" Oh and why is that?"she asked with a glare. She doesn't like the threat.

" Because Luxray would have been thrashed around by her." Alex points towards the place where a certain pink quadruple Pokemon with gem on her forehead and split tail currently rests.

" She doesn't like it when I am attacked and she does not Pokemons which are either brute or mischievous in her opinion. She takes great p_l_e_a_s_u_r_e in educating them." Alex explains.

His words angered Rosy and Luxray while others noticed the plain way he states it. It isn't like he is bragging but stating a fact.

" And how does your little Espeon challenge her Luxray who looks like he can demolish her any moment ?" Elsa countered him.

Espeon who opened her eyes now at their words to look Alex who simply huffed for everyone to hear.

Alex smiles at her action and said,"I don't think a Pokemon who just reached advance level can defeat someone who can battle advance peak Pokemon with her skills. She can destroy both of your pokemons without much effort. Don't you agree, girl?" Alex just ran his hands through her head who enjoys his touch and leans closer.

Alex's objective for all this drama was to agitate Elsa, which was reached by his past statement.

" Why you?" Elsa who never liked Alex lost her temper and thundered.

"Oh it seems you don't believe me, I can prove it. Tomorrow in the finals I will use only her to attack. My second pokemon will stand still and won't interfere in the battle . If you managed to beat her, I lose. " Alex declares the gamble.
