Hisoka vs Kaz & Yas Gym

Dark Gym,

"Although I don't know what kind of Pokemon you will hatch into, at least you will be much stronger than your peers, right?" Hisoka murmured quietly.

Then, Hisoka picked up a towel and dipped it into a bucket filled with water. Gently, he began to wipe the egg that he won back in the S.S. Anne Tournament.

He had made some modifications to the old egg incubator. The top part was cut open enough to fit the orb that he got from Rhydon. He had also installed several high-powered UV lights in the incubator. They were used to simulate the sun's rays, so the orb could release its radiation for the egg to absorb.

Previously, Hisoka had discovered that the radiation emitted by the orb had good effects on Pokemon. And after several tests, the radiation worked much better on younger Pokemon.

And according to Rhydon, the orb had been inlaid on the wall where he was born. Which meant that Rhydon had been exposed to the orb since he was still an egg.

Following that example, Hisoka had decided to expose the Pokemon egg in his possession to the orb. Hopefully, it would hatch into a strong Pokemon.

But his mind was still on the orb currently. Hisoka had scoured the internet, flipping through many books, searching for any information about the orb, yet nothing was found.

However, he had found something in a paper published by an archeologist. The researcher found some murals depicting an item that looked similar to his orb in an old ruin. After translating the ancient language written on the murals, the item in the myth was called Jewel of Life. Sadly, the rest of the information was lost to the erosion of time.

...

"Done!"

After wiping the egg clean, Hisoka put the egg back into the incubator carefully.

Hisoka stretched and put the cleaned Pokémon eggs back into the hatcher.

It had been three days since the three men left his gym. And neither Kaz nor Yas had made any movement yet.

'When are they going to come?' thought Hisoka in annoyance.

A few days ago, Kirlia had told Hisoka that she had discovered someone wandering outside his gym. When asked what to do with the perpetrator, Hisoka had told leave the person alone. He was quite curious about what she wanted to do, to the point of camping in the forest every day.

'What a tenacious girl,' Hisoka shook his head.

Outside a small tent, Ran was having her lunch while writing something in her notebook. The first few pages were all filled with the notes she had taken during the past three days.

...

Rhydon, male. Has a strength powerful enough to shatter large boulders. He also eats a lot.

Two unknown Pokemon. Gender unknown. One Pokemon like to sleep, and the other likes to play pranks.

Chansey, female. Nothing interesting.

What the hell?

Hisoka was standing behind the girl, looking at the notes written in her book. The girl was still unaware of his presence.

His mood was upset as he read through the words written by the blue-haired girl.

What do you mean Kirlia likes to sleep?

She was obviously meditating, okay.

Kirlia, who was also reading the note with Hisoka, snickered softly. She was quite amused by the girl's description of herself.

Weavile likes to play a prank?

Of course, she is. She is a cat and a weasel, after all.

Cough!

Cough!

It appeared that she was too focused on her writing that she choked on her food. She put the pet down and patted her chest repeatedly, trying to swallow the food. Her cheeks flushed red.

"Ah, finally," she sighed in relief.

"Would you like a glass of water?"

"Thank you!"

Ran didn't care why a glass of water suddenly appeared next to her. She quickly grabbed it and poured the water into her mouth.

Puff!

Before she could finish drinking, she spewed the water out of her mouth.

Cough!

ψ(｀∇')ψ

"You're welcome."

Hisoka said with a grin.

(ʘᗩʘ')

"You, you," Ran pointed her trembling finger to Hisoka.

She was frightened by the sudden appearance of Hisoka. In a blink of an eye, she ran into her tent and closed it tightly, not daring to come out.

"You're from Yas Gym, correct?"

"No!"

"You're the person who spied on us three days ago, correct?"

"It's not me!"

Ran was sitting inside her tent, shivering in fear.

'It's over,' she thought.

There was no way she could escape from this situation after being caught with the strength of the other party's Pokemon.

"Hisoka, I'm taking this," Kirlia said expressionlessly.

She waved her hand gently. After that, the notebook that fell on the ground flew into her hand.

Ssss!

Kirlia's psychic power covered the whole book, and with a thought, the book crumbled into small pieces before disappearing with the wind.

Looking at the quivering tent, Hisoka shook his head helplessly and said, "I'm not going to hurt you. I just want you to send a message to Yas and Kaz. Since they are taking their sweet time, I might as well challenge them. I'll be waiting for them outside the city at two o'clock in the afternoon tomorrow. The League inspector will arrive soon. I don't want to wait any longer."

"Do you understand?" Hisoka said sternly.

Kirlia was so scared by Hisoka's tone that she popped her head and nodded her head repeatedly.

"Yes, yes, yes, I will tell Master Yas."

Then, she quickly went back to hide in her tent.

"Good. Come on, Kirlia. Let's leave."

Ran just kept hiding inside the tent for several minutes. And after not hearing any movement outside the tent, Ran slowly went out and looked left and right, making sure that Hisoka was truly gone.

"It was so scary," Ran patted her chest, calming herself down.

"But he looks so cool, though. I hope that guy will win the fight tomorrow,"

she said dreamily.

It seemed that Ran had fallen for Hisoka's charms.

...

Dark City was located in the middle of a forest. Although it was a backwater place, it was quite rich in natural resources. They were many rare herbs found outside the city. The only hassle was transporting all these resources to somewhere else due to its remote location. That was probably the reason for the lack of trainers traveling to this city.

Farming was still the mainstay of Dark City. The local residents in this ancient city lived in harmony with nature and Pokemon. All of them used to live a peaceful and tranquil life that was until the appearance of Kaz and Yas Gyms.

Hisoka was standing in the middle of a plain. The sky was clear, and the strong wind of the northern field flowed through his hair, revealing his excited eyes.

Hisoka was wearing a black t-shirt and a pair of blue jeans, standing next to his Rhydon, staring at the crowd coming toward him. He touched his belt, ensuring the Pokeballs were there before walking toward the incoming crowd.

The crowd began to split into two groups. One side was Kaz Gym in blue uniforms, while the other was Yas Gym in green uniforms.

Under the leadership of the two leaders, the members of both gyms were ready to fight Hisoka with all of their strength. But after seeing Hisoka's Pokemon, Rhydon, some of them became a little hesitant.

'I challenge you to a one-vs-two battle. Whoever loses will get out of this city.'

When Hisoka's message was delivered to Yas by Ran, he immediately became angry. He felt that Hisoka was provoking him blatantly.

"Heh. We are here for your challenge, boy. That's what you want, isn't it?" Yas sneered.

Yesterday, after receiving Hisoka's challenge, Yas went to discuss it with Kaz. And in order to ensure their win, both gyms prepared all of their men for this battle.

They had assembled twenty people for this battle. And looking at the men around them, Kaz and Yas couldn't help but smile at each other.

'We have so many people with us. There is no way that giant Rhydon can handle more than twenty Pokemon at the same time,' both of them thought. Their body gradually relaxed as they looked at Hisoka haughtily.

...

"Ben, they are going to fight soon! Let's get up there, so we could see much better," a freckled boy said loudly.

Three little boys were sneaking up the hillside. All of them were around five years old and came from Dark City.

Ben, a chubby kid, smiled and said, "Peter, which one do you think will win? I hope all of them lose, so we can beat them up later."

He clenched his fist angrily.

"I hope the young man with the ponytail win. He doesn't look like a bad guy," the third boy with a pair of round glasses spoke softly.

Peter curled his lips in disdain and laughed, "Ned, you are so stupid. All people who opened a gym are bad people. Did you forget about your parent's shop? Didn't the people from Kaz and Yas Gym destroy your shop when your father tried to stop them from leaving for not paying for their food?"

"I still don't think that he is a bad guy!" Ned retorted.

He had been stubborn since he was a child. He wouldn't easily change his opinion no matter what other people said.

"Guys! Look! The fight is starting," Ben suddenly interrupted from the side, stopping their quarrels. His hand was pointing toward the plain, where the battle between Hisoka and Kaz and Yas Gym was taking place.

"Come on, Geodude! Kick that guy's ass!"

"Let's go, Doduo!"

"Nidoran!"

"Pidgey!"

"Rattata!"

...

Many people threw their Pokeballs on the field. Red lights kept flashing as many Pokemon with different shapes, and types appeared.

Although most of them were relatively common Pokemon, the pressure brought about by so many Pokemon was quite oppressive.

"Go! Electabuzz"

"Come out, Scyther!"

Kaz and Yas also released their strongest Pokemon, respectively.

Twenty Pokemon stood on the field. Their eyes were kept on Hisoka's figure on the opposite side.

With such a large number of Pokemon, even if most of them were weak, nobody can stand unscathed in the face of many attacks simultaneously.

Hisoka took a few steps back and threw the Pokeballs in his hands.

Pop!

Pop!

Pop!

Kirlia, Weavile, and Chansey appeared in a flash of red light.

4vs20

Hisoka wasn't worried in the slightest about facing these wannabe gangsters. He had faced a much more terrifying Team Rockets. The only thing he needed to be worried about was the Electabuzz and Scyther, led by the two gym leaders.

"Weavile, Swords Dance!"

Hisoka wasn't going to give them any chance, however. If he didn't defeat these guys with absolute crushing strength, they would never give up that easily.

"Guys, let's attack together. We must drive this guy out of the Dark City today," Kaz shouted, encouraging his men.

"Come on, use your strongest attack. Don't show any mercy!" Yas added.

"Electabuzz, use Thunderbolt on that red-haired Pokemon!"

Kaz had never seen a Pokemon like Weavile, but after hearing Hisoka's command, he knew that he had to stop that Pokemon from completing its move.

'Never let a Pokemon use Swords Dance.'

Every trainer worth their salt knew about this rule.

Swords Dance stimulated the Pokemon body, boosting their attack power. The only drawback was the user must not be disturbed when using this move, or it would fail. So not many Pokemon were able to use it successfully in battle.

Swords Dance is a powerful enhancing move. No one would take it lightly. A Pokemon with weak combat power can even defeat a powerful Pokemon just by relying on it.

A bright-colored lightning current shot out from the antennae on Electabuzz's head.

Chi!

With a piercing sound, the lightning bolt streaked through the air, heading toward the motionless Weavile.
