42 Finally, Metang!
"Blaziken, roar and then use Sunny Day!"
Blaziken roared, causing the Mightyena to abruptly stop in their tracks. Due to Blaziken's higher level, the Mightyena were intimidated by the roar. Seeing that the Mightyena had stopped, Blaziken then used Sunny Day, intensifying the heat of the sun and charging up its flames.
The two Poochyenas had already been defeated by Eevee, so now it was just the three Mightyena that needed to be defeated.
"Blaziken, use Flamethrower!" Blaziken jumped back and blasted a stream of fire at the Mightyena, causing them to whimper and be thrown back. Seeing that they were almost knocked out, Jun finally instructed Beldum to finish them off with Zen Headbutt.
Beldum focused its willpower to its head and attacked the pack of Mightyena.
*BANG*BANG*BANG*
The Mightyena were thrown back and rolled to the ground. However, before Jun could celebrate his victory, Blaziken suddenly kneeled down and passed out.
The wounds in its stomach had been reopened, so Jun hurriedly went to Blaziken and sprayed the potion on its wounds. Fortunately, they had already defeated the Mightyena pack, or they might not have been able to make it out of Vermillion Forest.
It was a tough battle, but Jun and his team emerged victorious. After administering the potion on Blaziken's wounds, he checked on his other Pokemon to make sure they were all okay. Eevee seemed to have sustained only minor scratches, while Beldum appeared to be unscathed.
Feeling relieved that his team was alright, Jun decided to take a moment to rest and catch his breath. Because of Flannery, Jun couldn't keep going, so he had to rest on the spot, at least until Blaziken woke up. During the rest period, Jun not at all talked to Flannery anymore and Flannery may also be a little afraid of Jun and dare not take the initiative to talk to Jun.
Time passed in the silence of two people.
After a long time, Blaziken finally opened his eyes slowly and saw Flannery beside him, sighed in relief. Jun and Dlannery also sighed in relief seeing Blaziken finally woken up.
"Blaz~" Blaziken called to Jun to express his gratitude to him.
Jun saw that Blaziken was awake walked over to check Blaziken's body and waved his hands. Because of the potion, the wounds on Blaziken already closed but Jun know he needed to recuperated in Pokemon centre to treat its internal injury. We talk spear gun here!
"Since Blaziken's injury is no longer a serious problem, you should leave Vermillion Forest as soon as possible and don't forget, the Pokemon Centre first. Understand?" Jun said to Flannery.
"Um, aren't you going with us?" Flannery asked but Inside her heart, she wondered 'Isn't this guy the same age as me? Why do I need to be afraid of him?'
"I have something to do here for a while, so I can't leave for the time being. Let Blaziken take you away first... Ah yes..." Jun then remembered something and rummaged through his backpack.
He then took out a Poke Muffin with a red color and gave it to Flannery before saying, "If you find out Blaziken got tired, give him this. This Poke Muffin is made with Chople berries that generate heat for Pokemon. When combined with Shuca berries' spiciness, it can act as a mild painkiller for Blaziken."
After that, Jun pointed out a relatively safe route to Blaziken before leaving. With Blaziken's strength, it shouldn't be a problem to get out of the Vermillion Forest.
"Ah, wait a minute. May I know your name?" Flannery asked suddenly.
Jun looked at Flannery for a while before weighing the pros and cons, but he thought that maybe having a connection with Mr. Moore through Flannery is a wise choice.
Mr. Moore is a gym leader in Lavaridge Town who focuses on fire Pokemon, and Flannery is his only granddaughter. Based on what he knows from the animation series, Flannery will succeed Mr. Moore as the next Lavaridge gym leader and replace him and If he combines this information with what he read on the internet, Mr. Moore more likely in the future to become the next Marquis of Hoenn region. Similar to his grandfather. The only difference is that Mr. Moore will guard Mt. Chimney near Lavaridge Town.
Jun nodded "My name is Jun. Jun Falken"
Flannery also nodded, "My name is--"
"Flannery, grandaughter of Mr. Moore. Enough chit-chat, you Blaziken need nurse Joy right now" Jun cutted and rebuked her
Flannery was stunned hearing his rebuke. Almost all trainers who focus on Fire-type Pokemon basically have fiery tempers. Hearing Jun scold her made her want to explode.
"Blazz~" seeing it little miss wants to explode, Blaziken reminded her and brought her back to her senses, as Flannery was on the verge of exploding. Yes, Blaziken is the most important now.
"Alright, I remember you Jun Falken" Flannery declared before leave with Blaziken.
"Phew... finally" Jun sighed and turned around to look at Eevee minor wounds.
"Emoo~!" however before he looked at Eevee he saw Emolga pointed at somewhere and when Jun look at it, he saw Beldum was shrouded in a white light.
"Finally, Beldum evolved..." Jun looked at Beldum with excited expression.
It seems that defeating the Mightyenas was really the right choice. Jun, Eevee, and Emolga stared closely at Beldum. After a while, the white light gradually dissipated, and a disc-shaped Pokemon with a pair of flat, gray spikes on either side toward the rear emerged.

Note: The moves (TM) Iron Defense and (TM) Iron Head will be removed from Metang once Beldum evolves into Metang. Why? because, upon checking Metang's moves on the website, it doesn't has Iron Head moves and Iron Defense becomes a level-up move automatically.
