[IC] Pokémon Battle Frontier

"Tohjo Falls," answered Shiranui, "We were heading for the Battle Tower."

[bowtiesrcool86]

"The next one is the Battle Tower at Tohjo Falls." Liam said. "After that one, we learn the location of the final facility, The Battle Pyramid.

[Azure Flame]

"Oh, cool, I'm headed for Viridian City for my final badge, which is right on the way to the falls." Chuck said, relaxing in a chair.

[bowtiesrcool86]

"Tohjo Falls and Viridian both have contests comming up, maybe you could to come along with us."

[Azure Flame]

"Sounds good to me, so where are these friends of yours, I'd like to meet them."

[James Davy]

"I heard on the Grepa Berry vine that an ex-Champion by the name of Blue is leader of that gym," replied Shiranui.

[Azure Flame]

"Wasn't he Champion once too?" Chuck asked. "It'll definitely be a tough fight."

[bowtiesrcool86]

"They should be along soon. One of them has been collecting badges, the other is also doing contests and has five ribbons already."

[Azure Flame]

"Oh that's cool, maybe I'll face off against them in the League Tournament." Chuck said, stretching a little.

Liam again saw the trainer who has been boasting about the Tentacool that was the size of a Wailmer. He saw another trainer walk about and talk about how he has been saying that this was the third time he heard that claim and accused the kid of lying. He pulled out a Lure Ball and tossed it up. Sure enough, the Tentacool that emerged was around the same height as a Wailmir. Liam let out an impressed whistle.

[Azure Flame]

"While that is impressive, I'm sure it's size causes it to move much slower than a normal Tentacool." Chuck said yawning.

[bowtiesrcool86]

"Sounds logical." Liam admitted.

[Azure Flame]

"Although, it probably hits pretty hard too. Just imagine what it'll be like when it evolves. It could get big enough to take down a building." Chuck said.

(hint hint lol)

"Well, the heights on the Pokédex are only averages," replied Shiranui.

[Azure Flame]

"That is true." Chuck said. "I heard a story once of a woman who raised a giant Magikarp she caught, and it became an enormous Gyarados."

@Azure Flame

(I fell like this is a refrence to something, though I cannot place what.)

The trainer with the Tentacool boasted how it could beat anyone that was here. He closed his eyes and pointed randomly into the crowd, his finger happening to end up in Liam's direction. "I'll beat him with my Tentacool." He than opened his eyes to see his randomly chosen opponent. A few people gasped when they saw that the guy he pointed at was none other than Hoenn Region Champion, "Dragon Master" Liam Coleman. Liam accepted the battle and went to the battlefield outside of the Center. Liam sent out Jiriya the Greninja. Jiriya darted around the arena using typical ninja tricks and using Night Slash as his primary attack, while the Tentacool attempted to fling poison and wrap Jiriya up in his tentacles. The fight was vauge remanacent of something you'd see in Super Sentai, but with fewer explosions. Jiriya effortlessly won the battle.

[Azure Flame]

(Yes, there was an episode on it during the Orange Islands, owned by a tanned Nurse Joy serebii.net/anime/epiguide/orange/094…)

"Well, that was very underwhelming, though hopefully it'll shut him up." Chuck said, laughing a little.

[bowtiesrcool86]

"Well, to be fair, Jiriya has fought aginst Elite Four members." Liam admitted.

[Azure Flame]

"I suppose that is true." Chuck said with a shrug.

[James Davy]

"As I said to Liam a while back: overconfidence can leave you blind to the element of surprise," stated Shiranui, "And that battle just now proved it."
