[IC] Pokemon: Kalos

[James Davy]

Shiranui made some adjustments as well, making sure Sunawani and Seiryoku are on the team.

"Shall we go then?" Liam asked

[James Davy]

"Yes we shall," answered Shiranui.

[bowtiesrcool86]

the duo arrived at the gym. A woman introduced herself as Olympia the gym Leader and inquired who wanted to go first. "I went first last time, You can go first." Liam replied.

[James Davy]

"Alright then," said Shiranui and took his place at his side of the battlefield.

"This battle will be a 3-on-3 single battle with no time limit," stated the referee, "Only the challenger can switch Pokémon. Begin!" Olympia opened with a Sigilyph and Shiranui scanned it.
"Sigilyph, the Avianoid Pokémon. The guardians of an ancient city, they use their psychic power to attack enemies that invade their territory."
"I'll make this a battle of ancients! Seiryoku, I choose you!" Shiranui opened with his Golurk.
"Sigilyph, Psychic!"
"Seiryoku, Phantom Force!" Seiryoku was barraged by a mental onslaught before it vanished to Arceus-knows-where.
"Sigilyph, Protect!" Sigilyph brought up the green shield that stopped many an attack, but Seiryoku reappeared and hammered Sigilyph into the ground, shattering the protection shield and dealing a critical hit that knocked the ancient guardian out.

"Sigilyph, return; Slowking, you're up!" Olympia switched her Sigilyph for her Slowking. Shiranui scanned it.
"Slowking, the Royal Pokémon and an evolved form of Slowpoke. It has incredible intellect and intuition. Whatever the situation, it remains calm and collected."
"Slowking, Trick Room!"
"Seiryoku, Phantom Force once more!" Seiryoku vanished into thin air again before Slowking created a zone of twisted dimensions over the entire battlefield.
"Slowking, Nasty Plot!" Slowking thought up some evil plans, boosting its Special Attack sharply before Seiryoku reappeared and kicked Slowking into one of the Trick Room's walls for some heavy damage.
"Slowking, Psychic!"
"Seiryoku, Shadow Punch!" With Trick Room in effect, the normally-slower Slowking pummeled Seiryoku's mind with a similar mental barrage that Sigilyph used earlier. The Golurk fell over with a mighty crash.

---

"Seiryoku, return; Yoto, I choose you!" Shiranui recalled his fallen Golurk and drew the two swords that was Yoto, throwing them into battle.
"Slowking, Psychic!"
"Yoto, Shadow Sneak!" Yoto phased into the field and Slowking was looking around, trying to gauge where Yoto would pop out. The Doublade popped out from underneath Slowbro and stabbed it for enough damage to knock it out.

---

"Slowbro, return; Meowstic, you're up!" Olympia swapped her Slowbro for her Meowstic. "Meowstic, Sucker Punch!"
"Yoto, Attract!" Meowstic tried to get in a super effective hit, but failed as Yoto wasn't using an attacking move. The Doublade showed off a series of swings and thrusts and finished with the two cloths making a love heart shape. Meowstic fell in love.
"Meowstic, Psychic!"
"Yoto, Shadow Claw!" The Trick Room's physics was a boon for Yoto as the Doublade's swords started glowing with shadow energy and morphing into seven-branched swords. Meowstic tried to dodge the attack, but Yoto's movements were too complex to avoid and Meowstic was slashed with both swords for a critical hit. Meowstic was too love-struck to attack and the Trick Room faded away.
"Try again, Meowstic, Psychic!"
"Yoto, Shadow Sneak!" The swords phased into the battlefield again and Meowstic was eyeing the field warily.
"Meowstic, dodge it the moment they pop out!" Shiranui smirked as one sword phased into Meowstic's line of sight. Meowstic dodged only to be hit by the other sword, realising too late that Yoto's first strike was a feint. She tried to fight the damage from Yoto's last attack, but it was to no avail as Meowstic succumbed to the damage and fainted. Shiranui had won the Psychic Badge.

[bowtiesrcool86]

Olympia was ready to face Liam. She said that she wanted to do a double battle and sent out two Meowstic, one of each gender.

"Meowstic, the Constraint Pokemon, and the evolved form of Espurr. When in danger, it raises its ears and releases enough psychic power to grind a 10-ton truck into dust. The eyeball patterns on the interior of its ears emit psychic energy. It keeps the patterns tightly covered because that power is too immense. Meowstic's appareance and move pool will vary based on its gender."

"Let's see, two pure psychic types, so I'll choose these two!" Liam said tossing two Luxury Balls into the air. Plasma the Rotom and Sneasel emerged. Liam was caught up in the moment of catching Sneasal that he didn't realize until now that it held its evolutionary item. Liam peered out the window and noticed that during Olympia's battle with Shiranui it had grown dark.

"The Gym leader's Meowstics will face the challenger's Rotom and Snesal. Begin!" The Ref called.

"Sneasel, Hone Claws! Rotom, use Confuse Ray on the White one!" Liam called. Both moves worked successfully.
Olympia told her male Meowstic to use Disarming Voice on Sneasel, while she told her female one to use Shadow Ball on the Rotom. The female Meowstic hurt itself in confusion and Sneasel was hit.
"Plasma, Confuse Ray on the other Meowstic! Sneasel, use Beat Up on the confused one. Sneasel used the multi hit move. Since Liam's other on hand Pokemon included: Jiraiya the Greninja, Sylveon, Sliggo, and Scarlet the Delphox, some of the attacks did a fair amount of damage.
Olympia called for Disarming voice and Shadow Ball again. Disarming Voice goes off, but again the female hurt herself in confusion. Sneasel was knocked back by the attack. When he got up he spit to the corner of the ring. He stood back up and began yelling and he began to glow white. Sneasel's body began to change as he evolved.
"Weavile!" He exclaimed when he finished.

"Weavile, the Sharp Claw Pokemon, and the evolved form of Sneasel. It lives in snowy regions. It carves patterns in trees with its claws as a signal to others. They form groups of four or five that hunt prey with impressive coordination."

Liam orders Rotom to use Discharge while Weavile uses Protect. Both of Olympia's Pokemon snap out of confusion. She orders the boy to use Misty Terrian while the girl uses Shadow Ball on Rotom. While being shocked, the Shadow Ball goes off, but the female Meowstic was still KO'd, due to hitting herself in confusion a couple times.
"One of Olympia's Meowstic's is unable to battle!" The Ref announced as Olympia recalled it.
(Misty 1)
"Disarming voice on Weavile." Olympia called.
"Night Slash Weavile! Plasma, use Ominous Wind!" Liam called. Weavile got hit with the attack and was getting worn out. He wouldn't take another hit. The attacks went off, the Night Slash being propelled by the Ominous Wind. Weavile fell over from exhaustion after launching the attack. The combo KO'd the other Meowstic.

"Liam's Weavile, and Olympia's other Meowstic are unable to battle. Since Olympia has lost both of her Pokemon, and Liam has one remaining, he is the winner!" The Ref called.
"You did it!" Liam cheered. He hugged Plasma and then hugged Weavile, who gave a weak smile.
Olympia praised Liam on his battle, saying that he had raised some good Pokemon. She awarded him the Psychic Badge. Liam thanked her. She said that Snowbelle City has a gym.
Liam turned to Shiranui, "Shall we go to the Pokemon Center and be on our way?"

*(When I woke up this morning, Olympia's appearance in the anime and how she does gym battles had been revealed. I went and used that .)

[James Davy]

"Sure," answered Shiranui.

As the heroes left the gym, a black and lime green canine Pokémon with hexagonal eyes appeared in front of them. Shiranui scanned the newcomer. "Zygarde, the Order Pokémon. It's hypothesized that it's monitoring those who destroy the ecosystem from deep in the cave where it lives." He noticed what was shown on the Pokédex was different in shape to the canine-looking Zygarde.
"Moon child, healer of Pokémon, the local ecosystem is in danger!" Zygarde warned.

[bowtiesrcool86]

Liam was intrigued by this Pokemon. He had never heard of it before. He wondered why it's appearance was so drastically different from the one in the Pokedex.

[James Davy]

"A fiery man with a Pyroar has access to a weapon built by the immortal king that draws power from the life energy of Pokémon," stated Zygarde, "Don't let him fire it!" Zygarde noticed Liam's curiosity and said, "What you see is only a small part of me."

[bowtiesrcool86]

"Well, where is this man?" Liam inquired.

[James Davy]

"You'll find him running a factory within the Flare Café," Zygarde answered.
"I've seen that place in the Magenta Plaza of Lumiose City," Shiranui recalled. He didn't think the place was of much importance at the time.

[bowtiesrcool86]

"Well, let me go get Sherlock out of storage so we can wrap there." Liam said. He was gone for just a few minutes. When he returned he asked Zygarde if it wanted to be warpped as well.

[James Davy]

"No thank you, healer," answered Zygarde, "A part of me is already there."

[bowtiesrcool86]

Liam was curious as to how Zygarde decided to call him 'healer'. He knew what was likely to source for the nickname, but was unsure of how Zygarde had that knowledge. "Alright then, Sherlock take us to Flare Café in Magenta Plaza of Luminose City please." Sherlock nodded and began to focus his psychic energy and wrapped himself and the human duo there.

[James Davy]

"Perhaps it observed you healing Sandshrew back in the desert," Shiranui speculated, remembering what Zygarde said about it being present in Lumiose City as well as Anistar City, "In any case, we should focus on stopping Team Flare once and for all!"

[bowtiesrcool86]

"You're right." Liam said. He recalled Sherlock. "Let's go in." Inside, Liam saw Dianatha talking with a mean with a mane like a Pyroar.

[James Davy]

"That man must be the guy Zygarde warned us about," Shiranui whispered, "His hair-do resembles a male Pyroar's mane."

[bowtiesrcool86]

Liam was unsure of what they were talking about. He only heard snippets, including Dinatha being in movies and eternal life. Dianatha left after the heated debate. "Shall we move in?" Liam asked Shiranui.

[James Davy]

"Now's a good time," answered Shiranui.

[bowtiesrcool86]

Liam approached Lysandre. Before he could, a waiter got in his way, blocking line of sight to Lysandre, even from the perspective of where Shiranui stood. When he realized that Liam was trying to look beyond the waiter he said. "I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you about today's special. It's called 'Get out of here or else'." The waiter flung his uniform off to reveal the Flare Grunt uniform underneath. He sent out a Watchog. Liam sent out Jirayia, who oneshoted the Warthog with a single Powerup Punch. The grunt freaked out and fled. Liam found he dropped a scrap of paper. Liam picked it up and studied it. He walked over to a book case on the fall wall and said: 'open sesame' the bookcase slid over to reveal a secret passage.
