Note: Since most of you will probably ask this question to yourselves, I'd like to clarify it here. So Uranium235 (ingenious name) asked this question: So Charizard lost to Metagross, but Sceptile defeated Metagross and Entei? Don't you think that's a bit ridiculous? Charizard has always been Ash's strongest Pokémon. A:Well, Charizard would've been able to beat Metagross hadn't it been for its mega evolution. Sceptile defeated Metagross because it was already weakened because of the flamethrower/seismic toss/blast burn combo, so that's why it was so easy to beat it. Entei lost because of Explosion, and a pokemon will faint upon using explosion so Sceptile technically didn't beat Entei. Metagross' defeat was split up between Charizard and Sceptile. I hope this clears up everything!
So here it is! The last chapter of this short series.
Once again, I don't own pokemon, it all goes to Nintendo, etc.
R&R!
'Pikachu, it's all up to you, pal,' Ash told his pokémon, who was perched up on his shoulder. Upon listening to this, he jumped off the shoulder and gave a determined look before running onto the field.
Ash narrowed his eyes before twisting his hat behind. He cleared one thing by this motion: shit just got real.
'And so Ash is down to his last pokémon, while Tobias still has two, which are Dragonite and Latios!' The crowd roared at this. 'Let's see if this diminutive rodent will be able to stand up to the mighty dragon!'
'Okay, Pikachu versus Dragonite. Begin!' said the referee as he raised his flag.
'Dragonite, use Dragon Rage!'
'Pikachu, use Agility and dodge it!'
Dragonite formed a great, yellow ball of energy in her mouth before launching it towards Pikachu, who was waiting for the right moment to dodge the sphere of energy. The sphere grazed the grass, scorching the tips of grass blades before it crashed into the spot where Pikachu previously was.
'Dragonite, use Ice Beam!'
'Pikachu, keep on using Agility to dodge the attacks!'
Pikachu swiftly evaded each and every sheet of ice that advanced towards him, while Dragonite's rage grew each time her Ice Beam missed the rodent. This kept going for a while, until Ash gave out his next command.
'Pikachu, fire an Electro Ball!'
'PikaPikaPikachu!'
Pikachu jumped up in the air, electricity and multiple sparks surrounding him. Pikachu willed all the electricity to collect at his tail, and the electricity channeled downwards and formed a humongous yellow orb sparkling with electricity. Pikachu then jumped in the air, did a front flip and hurled the electric ball at Dragonite; the ball advanced with great speed and slammed into Dragonite's chest, creating an explosion that sent her flying back.
'And that's another great strategy folks!' The crowd cheered. 'An Electro Ball's power is greater if the user's speed is greater than the target's! And Pikachu obtained this constantly using Agility to increase his speed! Absolutely brilliant!'
'Grr…Dragonite, use Flamethrower!'
'Pikachu use Thunderbolt!'
The yellow zig-zag bolt of lightning and the crimson streak of flames clashed together, showing that the pokémon were equally matched. However, Pikachu and Dragonite were being pushed back little by little, showing their struggle to overpower each other.
'Pikachu, convert Thunderbolt to Thunder!'
And another burst of electricity was shot through the previous one, this time much stronger and with an electric-blue aura surrounding it. The thunder and the previous thunderbolt merged together, increasing the strength and overpowering the flamethrower, causing it to subside slowly, and the electricity struck Dragonite, blasting it back.
'Now use Iron Tail, Pikachu!' As commanded.
Tobias jabbed his fist in the air. 'Dragonite, use your Iron Tail too!'
Pikachu ran towards Dragonite while the latter did the same. They hardened their tails, each glowing white, and they slammed them against each other to send metallic sound of metal clinging together.
'Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!'
Pikachu's cheeks crackled with electricity, and he then shot a powerful burst of current through his tail. The electricity passed through the contact between Pikachu's and Dragonite's tail, electrocuting the dragon pokémon and dazing her for a second or two.
'Now, Pikachu! Thunder!'
'CHHUU!'
Pikachu let out a growl before shooting an enormous burst of electricity that headed straight towards Dragonite. The dragon pokémon was stunned to even move, and she took the attack head on before being thrown back, smoke steaming from her body. Pikachu continued to shoot the electricity until it was clear that Dragonite couldn't take it anymore.
'Dragonite is unable to battle!' The referee then went on to declare Pikachu as the winner.
'That was quick, folks! It looks like this Pikachu here is proving to be the best Pikachu there ever is! Better watch out, Tobias!' the commentator warned in a cheery voice.
'Dragonite, return!' Tobias exclaimed. 'Latios, it's all up to you. Show them who the better pokémon is!'
'And Latios is back! Let's see who wins the final round of the semi-finals!' The crowd roared.
'Pikachu, even if we don't win,' Ash said, 'I'm proud of you…all of you. But it'd be better if you won, alright!'
'Pika pi!' Pikachu exclaimed.
'Latios, ready?' Tobias asked, to which he got a nod. 'Alright, use Dragon Pulse!'
'Pikachu, use Electro Ball!'
'I have a good feeling about this,' professor Oak muttered.
'Eh? Why?' Dawn asked.
'Well,' professor Oak said, 'Latios is already tired due to the previous battles with Gabite and Glalie, and he looks tired right now too.'
'Well then, what about Pikachu?' Brock asked.
'Pikachu has just come out and defeated an already tired Dragonite, so it was pretty easy to knock her out.' Delia nodded at this. 'Furthermore, if Ash continues his strategy of Electro Ball, they might just win.'
'Thank god this isn't like DP189,' Dawn mumbled.
'What's DP189?' Delia asked in a confused voice.
'N-nothing…' Dawn blushed.
The cloud of dust disappeared. Latios and Pikachu readied another Dragon Pulse and Electro Ball respectively upon receiving commands, and they hurled their respective orbs at each other.
The yellow orb was bigger than before, but the turquoise sphere was almost equal in size. They clashed together, sending a weak wave of pure energy and vacuum in all directions.
Pikachu then charged himself with electricity, shooting electrical energy in all possible directions so that at least one bolt would hit the evading Latios. Latios attempted to ready a Dragon Pulse, but the electricity being fired simply kept him busy.
'Pikachu use Quick Attack!'
'Pika!' Pikachu ran towards Latios, leaving a white trail behind when he ran. Latios simply flew up to evade the bump, and Pikachu crashed in the ground.
'Latios use Luster Purge!'
![Pokemon The Semi Final Frontier Pokemon The Semi Final Frontier](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/gNRDgxUCuqE/hqdefault.jpg)
Latios cried out as he gathered sparkles towards his mouth, forming a pink orb before a thick beam was fired from it. The beam headed towards Pikachu and almost struck him if it hadn't been for Pikachu's speed.
'Pikachu, use Thunder!'
Pikachu, in mid-air, shot out pure electricity onto Latios, who couldn't do anything but take the attack. He stumbled back upon receiving it and shook his head to focus on the match.
'Latios – Dragon Pulse!'
'Pikachu, fire a Thunderbolt!'
Latios hurled a turquoise orb towards Pikachu while the latter shot electricity. The two attacks met, creating a miniature explosion as dust engulfed the entire battlefield and disabled anyone to see what was going on.
'Latios, use Giga Impact!'
Latios cocooned himself in a familiar purple veil, and he flew towards Pikachu with incredible speed. Ash simply waited for the eon pokémon to come closer to the electric type rodent, and when they were at a good distance he let out his command.
'Pikachu, jump!'
Pikachu smacked his tail on the ground, and used that impulse to soar in the air and evade the attack. Latios passed through Pikachu's previous position and stopped midway, losing the purple coat and finally stopping Giga Impact.
Latios flew by and curved up back into the sky, looking for Pikachu on the ground. Tobias looked confused as he wondered where Pikachu went – surely he couldn't fly?
'Where has Pikachu gone?' the commentator asked. 'Where is he?!'
'T-there!' a person from the audience shouted in a shrill voice. 'There it is!'
And unbeknownst to Latios, Pikachu managed to land on his back. Latios turned back to see Pikachu holding on tightly, and the eon pokémon furiously shook his body in attempting to throw Pikachu off.
'Pikachu,' Ash said, showing a thumbs-down, 'Thunder.'
'PIKAPIKACHUUUU!' Pikachu let out a blinding burst of voltage that electrocuted Latios and caused severe damage to the eon pokémon. Latios cried out in agony as the thunder continued, making him lose control of his flight and swoop down.
'Latios!' Tobias exclaimed, furiously worried. 'Light Screen!'
Latios projected an invisible barrier between Pikachu and he, reducing Thunder's power as Pikachu continued to transfer electricity into Latios' body. Even still, Latios was dealing great damage and looked as if he couldn't keep going any more.
'Latios, fly up in the air!'
Latios noted this and flew high in the sky, as if trying to reach the sky's limit. Then, with a sudden twist, he twisted in the air and flew downwards, tucking in his wings to swoop down faster and faster. This sudden movement made Pikachu loosen his grip and he plummeted down separately, waiting to meet his end.
'Pikachu, use Thunder, full power! Make it count!'
'Latios, Luster Purge!'
Pikachu charged himself up with electricity while Latios readied his sphere of energy. Latios halted in mid-air, while Pikachu continued to plummet down, until he finally exploded with raw energy and shot the thick streak of electricity towards Latios. The eon pokémon too this chance to fire his own attack, and the pink beam was fired away.
It took a second before the two attacks met, creating an enormous explosion of intense power that wafted in all directions. Ash covered his eyes to prevent the dust from entering them while Tobias simply cloaked himself. The crowd anticipated for the dust to clear, and when it did they simultaneously gasped.
At that moment, Pikachu was cloaked in electricity, heading straight for Latios with one thing in his mind – victory. His eyes were fierce and he let out a growl before he crashed into the awestruck Latios, sending both of them reeling down as gravity pulled them towards the ground. Latios was momentarily cloaked with electricity too, but it disappeared once they crashed into the ground, wafting more dust around.
When the dust cleared, Latios and Pikachu were still standing, but barely. Pikachu was covered in dust and bruise marks, and Latios was in the same state. They both gave each other respectful looks, but they weren't going to back down.
'Latios,' Tobias said, 'charge another Luster Purge.'
'Pikachu, if you're alright,' Ash wheezed, 'use Agility…combined with Volt Tackle!'
'Pika…PikaCHUUUU!'
'Laaa…TIIYOS!'
Pikachu once more cloaked himself in electricity, and sparks crackled from his body as he sped towards Latios, not holding back. Latios did the same; he once again gathered shimmering sparkles in the air, coagulated them and formed a great, pink orb in front of his mouth.
Latios fired another beam that headed straight towards Pikachu; the Volt Tackle and Luster Purge met. However, Pikachu wasn't backing down; he slowly cut through the Luster Purge, rushing closer and closer to Latios, but his strength was waning and he struggled to cut through the attack.
'Pikachu…' Ash muttered. 'Pikachu, channel the electricity to your tail and use Iron Tail!'
Pikachu lost the electric cloak, conducting all of his energy to his mow glowing tail. His tail turned from white to bronze, and he jumped up in order to evade the Luster Purge, and he did a front flip before successfully scoring a hit on Latios by slamming his tail down the eon pokémon's forehead, causing another explosion that almost knocked the two trainers off their feet and destroyed all the monitors in the process.
The battlefield was covered with smoke and everyone was desperate to see what was happening. The smoke clearly cleared, along with Ash and Tobias coughing madly. They looked hard and saw a silhouette of a small rodent standing on his feet, and a floating dragon that was slowly getting pulled to the ground.
'Please…' Dawn muttered. 'Come on, Pikachu, I know you can do it…Damn you Arceus! Just clear the goddamn smoke!'
Brock stared at Dawn in disbelief as she thrusted her middle finger in the air, bringing a lot of attention.
The dust cleared. Ash gave a smile of joy as he saw Latios slowly crashing to the ground, closing his eyes as he was out cold. Pikachu was wheezing madly as he struggled to stand up.
The referee stared in disbelief before clearing his throat. 'And Latios is unable to…huh?'
Pokemon The Semi Final Frontier Cast
'Pika…chu…' Pikachu muttered, and his eyes closed before crashing face-first into the ground.
'B-B-both pokémon are u-unable to b-b-battle!' the referee stuttered. 'T-this m-m-match is a t-t-tie…?'
'What the f***?!' was the only thing that came out from Ash's mouth. After so much of a struggle, after defeating three legendary pokémon, a mega evolved pokémon and a pokémon who had a type advantage in a round; this is what he came to?
But he didn't complain anymore. Pikachu had done his best…there was nothing more he could ask for.
'This is it! Latios and Pikachu have matched each other in terms of strength! Wow! I couldn't ask for anything more!' the commentator exclaimed. 'But, since it is a tie, please wait for a few moments. The Board will reach its conclusion. Please wait for a few minutes, folks. Stay tuned! You wouldn't want to miss this moment!'
And the connection was cut off. Ash sighed, and he walked to Pikachu and picked him up in his arms.
'Pika…' Pikachu wheezed. Grandtotal 4 3 2 – create invoices and estimates.
'Hey,' Ash said. 'You did your best, Pikachu! I couldn't ask for anything more from you. I'm proud of all you guys.' He stood up. 'Come on. Let's take you to the Pokémon Centre.'
It had been thirty minutes since Ash had gone to the Pokémon Centre. While he was there, he read a few pokémon magazines that were there before he was interrupted by none other than Paul.
'Oh, hey, Paul,' Ash said, and he closed the magazine.
'That was a good battle, Ash.' Paul gave a weak smile.
'Really?' asked Ash. If he was drinking something right now, it would've surely ended up on Paul's tee.
'Yea. I wouldn't be able to stand up to his Darkrai alone, forget his Latios.'
'Thanks, Paul. That's great of you,' Ash said with a surprised expression.
'But your win against me was out of pure luck!' Paul's expression turned serious. 'If I just hadn't—'
'Trainer Ash and Trainer Tobias please assemble at stadium number three for the results of your Sinnoh League Pokémon Battle,' a feminine pokémon said through the speakers.
'That's my cue.' Ash got up and walked out of the Pokémon Centre, not before taking his Pikachu of course.
Pokemon The Semi Final Frontier Season
And so Ash walked up to the trainer tunnel, finally escaping out of the darkness and entering the light filled stadium. The people cheered upon his arrival, and Tobias was already there.
'Now, since both trainers are assembled here,' the commentator said, 'we'll be hearing the decision everyone's been waiting for! People, brace yourselves!'
At the same second as the commentator concluded his talk, Cynthia took the mic and gave a smile to everyone. 'Hello, Sinnoh!
'As you know, we're all here because of the semi-final match between Tobias Takuto and Ash Ketchum, which sadly ended in a draw. Now, we would love to let both trainers advance to the finals, but..sadly, there can be only one victor. And so, as the Pokémon League Association has come to a stand, the winner of the semi-final round is none other than Tobi—'
'Wait!'
Cynthia halted midway, and she looked at the source of the voice along with the audience. It was none other than Tobias himself. He walked towards Cynthia and whispered something to her, and she paled. She gave him a 'are you kidding me' look, and he simply nodded.
'Okay,' she said as she breathed heavily. 'Now, the original victor was to be Tobias Takuto, but his decision is…unique. So, Tobias Takuto has decided to…forfeit his victory and give it to Ash Ketchum.'
'WHAT THE F***?!' the crowd roared collectively (okay, not all of them but most of them. Like, 80% of them). They looked at Tobias in disbelief before a riot broke out, and people were cursing in their stands as they made their way to the battlefield.
'WAIT!' Tobias shouted as he snatched the mic from Cynthia's hands. 'I don't believe I'm saying this, but…I have reached this decision because of Ash Ketchum himself. His strong bond with his pokémon has done what some would call the impossible: bring me and my pokémon down to their knees. And if I didn't have Darkrai, Latios or Entei with me, I would've surely lost.
'Ash Ketchum is a capable trainer. He would've surely defeated me hadn't it been for my Legendary Pokémon, and I feel bad that his chance of winning a league would've ended because of an Ubermensch trainer with three goddamn legendary pokémon by his side, because if I had my reserve pokémon I would've surely lost.
'This I the reason for my 'rash' decision.' Tobias handed the mic back and winked at Ash before leaving. 'Good luck in the finals, Ash. I hope you win.'
Tobias then left. Ash gaped at the ground with wide eyes; he couldn't believe that he had advanced to the finals. He didn't blink at all…he stared at the ground, and he didn't feel joy or sadness or happiness…all he felt was shock.
Was it sympathy that Tobias had for a fourteen-year-old boy, who couldn't win only because of a Board's decision? Or was it pity that he couldn't advance further than the top four? Ash couldn't tell, but he felt sad that Tobias had to throw away his chance only because of righteousness.
Ash gasped for breath as someone bumped into his body, and he felt arms grappling him as he struggled to get free. He finally tore away from the hug and saw Dawn grinning at him happily, squealing at the same time as her Piplup was dancing around in joy with her pom-poms. His mother, professor Oak and Brock were not far behind, and each had an ear-to-ear grin on their faces.
That was when he felt lips colliding against his. His eyes were about to pop out once he saw Dawn smooching him passionately, and he was star-struck as he stood there surprised. A second later she broke apart and blushed furiously before running away in embarrassment.
'Finally, Ash!' said Brock as he patted him on his back. His mother hugged him before Oak followed the same gesture Brock had done.
Ash felt a feeling erupting in him.
It was joy…
…Immense joy.
And he had finally won.
And so it's over! Tobias forfeited, and ash won.
I found it really silly if Ash would've won, because he's won all of his matches with losing at least one pokemon, while Tobias won all of his matches without losing a single pokemon (except for this one, but this one is fan-made). So I decided that Ash should win only because Tobias forfeits the match due to..reasons which I mentioned above.
Now, I hope I made the battle between Pikachu and Latios pretty intense and that you all liked it.
Note: Should I continue this and make a sequel of the finals? Or should I just leave it where it is?
As always, reviewing is a MUST! Hahaha. Please review and tell me whether you liked these four chapters and how it ended.
