A New Kind of Master: Pokemon Master
Chapter 41: The Final Round
Written by: MayumiPezKujo

It had been a long journey up to this point, and we were just going to have to turn around and go all the way back so Eric could battle the gym leader in Olivine City, but that was alright by me. We had to do what needed to be done. Eric and I had made it to the other side of Violet City quite easily, which I stopped to make changes to my teams before we came out here to find the final seal. The first time I had found a seal and tried to open it, I was quite nervous. By now, however, I had already unlocked 4 seals and was getting used to the idea. I placed my badge in position and darkness surrounded us just like it did every time. It was the battlefield of darkness. I also knew by now, how strong the demons could be. The final, for now, demon showed up and stepped out from the darkness behind the trees. "So, you've come to challenge me, now have you?" The demons said with a sarcastic tone. "I was worried you'd have forgotten about me."

"When the fate of the universe rests on my shoulders, how could I possibly do that?" I said cooly, but suddenly the situation that I was in seemed a lot darker since I said that out loud. The fate of the universe really did rest on my shoulders and it was up to me to battle these demons so that I can save everyone from being enveloped in darkness and becoming evil. We'd had an experience with that before with False, so I didn't want to see anyone else get affected with it again. I was just lucky False had listened to me so easily.

"Well get ready for this challenge," The demon said, holding a Pokeball. "Because it will be your last." He threw out a big grass looking Pokemon that seemed to have a top that resembled that of a rafflesia flower.

I was curious about the Pokemon and started to pull out my Pokedex to get the information on the Pokemon. As I stuck my hand in my bag, the demon was already ready to give his command. "Vileplume, Petal Dance!" He ordered.

Before I knew it, I had a bunch of petals flying out toward me at high speeds. Suddenly there was a big flash of light and an incredible heat from flames as Skull popped out of the Pokeball and incinerated all of the flower petals that were coming toward me. "Pokemon battle Pokemon," Skull said in a ice-cold, threatening tone, despite the fact that he was most certainly a fire-type Pokemon. "Let's make this a fair fight now, shall we?"

"Last I checked," The demon said, looking at Skull with his expressionless face. He seemed to be able to understand Skull's speech. "Your trainer can use fire on her own, yes?"

I was wondering how awkward it must be for Eric to listen to the conversation when he could only understand what the demon was saying. Sometimes I wondered if it seemed like we were talking to ourselves when we talked to Pokemon that other people couldn't understand. "In a fair fight, Pokemon battle Pokemon." Skull warned. "My trainer will battle only fair fights."

"Fine, you want fair, you'll get fair." The demon said and withdrew his Vileplume and sent out a Houndour of his own. "How's this for fair?"

"Bring it on," Skull said with all of the confidence clear in his voice.

I was glad to have such a loyal Pokemon on my team. It seemed that all Pokemon were pretty loyal to their trainers in my view, but Skull seemed to be the best at showing his loyalty. "Houndoom, use Thunder Fang!" The demon ordered his first attack of the round.

"Skull, counter with Faint Attack!" I ordered.

Faint Attack seemed to be the move that Skull was most skilled in. He escaped into the darkness as the opposing Houndoom came towards him with his fangs charging with electricity. Skull reappeared behind him, which the other Houndoom had to have seen coming since he turned around as soon as Skull appeared. As he went in to use his Thunder Fang, Skull completed his attack with Rock Smash, slamming his head into the other Houndoom as hard as he could. I didn't know that Skull knew the move Rock Smash, but he used it anyway. Being a Fighting-type move, it did some damage to the opponents Houndoom.

"Great job, Skull!" Both me and Eric shouted in unison.

"Don't think your something special just because your Pokemon landed that attack." The demon warned. "Houndoom, Faint Attack!"

"Skull, Double Team!" I ordered and on my instant command, Skull put up clones of himself across the battlefield. As the Houndoom went across, found the correct one, but Skull countered the attack easily, knocking the other Houndoom over onto his side. I knew that Skull was good at battling since he did become the leader of the pack after killing the original Houndoom leader, but now he was showing off what he learned after living in the wild for a while.

"Nice work!" I cheered.

"Awesome!" Eric and Axe both shouted.

The Houndoom struggled to get up and when he finally did, he fell back down unconscious. "And you thought that was going to be a fair fight." Skull said, building himself with confidence and becoming cock.

"Vileplume!" The demon shouted, ignoring Skull's comment, as he rereleased the Vileplume that he had out earlier in the match. I hoped that I would actually be able to battle this interesting Pokemon this time.

"Skull," I said, wondering if I should return him. He must have guessed it too, based off his response.

"Don't worry, Mayumi." He assured me. "I can take this one too, that Houndoom was easy. It took nothing out of me."

I just nodded, allowing him to prove himself one more time. Skull sure was very confident in his own abilities, even more so after having returned from the wild. Even though it wasn't that long ago that he left, it felt like it had been ages since he was on my team. "Vileplume, use Giga Drain!" The demon ordered.

Vileplume was instantly attached to Skull as he started to drain the life from him. "Skull, Overheat!" I ordered. It was a lovely move that had replaced Flamethrower. Skull started to heat up his body as he caused flames to come up around himself. It was odd to me, since the last time we used that move it actually resembled Flamethrower, as it was still fire blasted from his mouth. Either way, it caused the Vileplume to let go of him and be severely damaged from the high level of flames and heat.

"Faint Attack!" I commanded, not wanting to give Vileplume another chance to do any damage to Skull.

Skull vanished into the darkness and appeared behind the Vileplume, attacking him with flames. The Vileplume was easily brought down and Skull stood proudly. "Two down, one to go." The demon said as he called his Vileplume back into his Pokeball.

This time, I actually returned Skull to the Pokeball. "Hitmontop!" The demon called, releasing a Pokemon who stood up on two legs with a round body, long limbs and a head with a point on it. I learned real quick that the Pokemon could use the tip of its head to spin around quickly like a top. With its rapid spinning, the Pokemon reminded me something of Pine, Eric's Pineco.

"GodZilla!" I called out, releasing my Feraligatr.

GodZilla took the stage proudly, liking the fact that her opponent appeared to be a small and cute Pokemon, which made it seem like this round was going to be pretty easy for her. "Hitmontop, use Rolling Kick!" The demon commanded.

Hitmontop started spinning on his head instantly as he came toward GodZilla. My reaction time in a command wasn't quick enough to work in GodZilla's favor, and she was much to slow now to move out of the way quickly. This Pokemon would have a speed advantage against her, and tat was something that we were going to have to try to work around. "Close Combat!" The Demon commanded his Pokemon.

Hitmontop made his way over to GodZilla real quick, but this time, I knew a good command that would be easy for her to execute quickly. "GodZilla, use Aqua Tail!" I ordered. She quickly turned around with her tail being covered in a veil of water now, and she slapped the Hitmontop away before he was close enough to attack her. This, however, didn't seem to do much to the Hitmontop, as he got up and was ready to battle again like no damage had even been dealt on him.

"GodZilla, Hydro Pump!" I ordered.

"Close Combat, again!" The demon commanded.

As GodZilla shot out a powerful jet of water toward the opponent, he started coming at her, punching his way through the powerful mist and making his way to her as he attacked her several times with his fists. Being fed up with attacks, GodZilla crunched down on him, in anger and without my command. She picked him up and tossed him away. I could tell that she was running low of energy from the attacks. "Rapid Spin!" The demon instructed his Pokemon on what his next move was to be.

The little Hitmontop came toward GodZilla and I tried to get her to counter with Aqua Tail again, but the Hitmontop must have seen it coming as he went around her as she went to strike him. GodZilla quickly whipped around the other way to attack him, but both Pokemon ended up getting affected by the hit and they both fell, unconscious. "I guess that means the victory goes to you." The demon said as he pulled his Pokemon back and went into the darkness as it went away, revealing the world of light to us once more.

Chapter 41~ is finally here!!! Sorry for the long awaited chapter, I had a hard time accessing my account for a while, and then I got to my dorm in college and its been pretty busy lately. Anyway, Eric and the other characters don't really play a big part in this chapter, but in the next...onto Olivine City!!! =^.^=

Mayumi is making some progressions on her way to uncovering the world form its dark state and Eric is making progress on collecting the badges of the Johto region.

I chose Hitmontop of all as the preview picture since he is one of my favorite Pokemon from the first two generations-after Gengar, obviously-;)

Anyway...sorry for taking so long, I had free time tonight and I was also inspired for this chapter, so I decided to go ahead and write it up. :D

I hope everyone is doing well on deviantART and in life. I love you guys~! :love:
