First Class- Perfect Ending????

After all the introductions were done, Ace looked at Misty, May, Lucy, Dawn, and Dendra in the first row with twitching lips… Why were they writing down so fast…? He didn't even start, okay?!

He coughed and started, "Well, let's start right away. Now that everyone knows each other, you can do whatever you want after class. If you want to battle, find someone who is on the same level as you. Now…"

He turned to the board and wrote down a problem.

[Your Opponent has a Tailwind up with an Electric Tera Type, Air Balloon, Shedinja. You have a Cubone. How do you win?]

Ace tapped on the board and looked at the students, "Solve this problem." the students were dumbfounded, scratching their heads, "What's an Air Balloon? Are you stupid? You don't know what a balloon is? No, that's what I'm asking! Why would a Shedinja have a Balloon! How am I supposed to know? Maybe it's his birthday?"

Ace's face turned dark, "IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY!" as he nailed Surskit in the forehead with a marker cap. He snorted, "You don't know what an Air Balloon is?!" Dendra chuckled, "Haha… Professor Ace, Battle Items are a Third Year course…"

Ace loosened his tie, "Oh my Arceus! What a headache!" he left the question on the board, "Other than May, Dendra, Dawn, Misty, and Lucy, the rest of you can answer this question in your free time. The first person to answer it will get 1 extra point. At the end of the year, the person with the most Points will be given a Pokemon Egg."

Everyone's eyes lit up and they stared at the question so hard, their eyeballs nearly exploded!

Ace turned to the 5 girls, "You 5. By the end of this class, I want you all to answer this question with the correct answer." They were stunned and nodded, swallowing, "Yes, Professor…" Ace nodded and turned around, writing and talking, "Since you're all newbies, let me teach you a few things."

He joked, "How far back do we have to go? Do you know your attribute tables?" Corvin started spewing out all the attributes and Ace threw a marker at him, "I was joking! Now, let's start. An Air Balloon is a Battle Item that will make the Pokemon Immune to Ground Type Attacks. Tail Wind is a Flying Type move that will speed up the Pokemon on your side of the field by 1 stage…"

He turned back and pulled up a book, catching Emily and putting her back on his shoulder as he continued speaking, "Let me give you an easier problem. I assume you watched the Lily of the Valley Conference a few weeks ago?" he looked up and tapped on his watch with a dark face.

A hologram appeared of Paul's battle, Ace showed them the Battle between Paul and Tobias… more like Tobias getting abused.

He spoke while playing the video, "In this scenario, what should you have done in Tobias' position?" Luck raised his hand and Ace looked at him as he answered, "Teleport out?" 

Ace nodded, "It works! But not for long. The problem is to prevent yourself from being roared out again. In this case, with either Raikou or Latias, you have to strike first. Both can learn Roar. Latias can learn Alluring Voice to confuse the enemy. Thunder Wave will give you hope even if only a little bit. The point is, this Trainer is just awful. Just because he has 6 Legendary Pokemon, does not mean he's strong."

Ace looked at everyone seriously, "Of course, a Legendary Pokemon is very strong, but in the hands of someone incompetent, even a Caterpie can kill him!" Book pointed at himself in shock, making Ace's lips twitch…

He turned the video and said, "How about this. What if you didn't have Raikou, but Cinderace?" The class was confused and Minute snapped his fingers, "Heh! Easy! You're killed insta-OOF!" Ace put his arm down, "Of course not." he tapped on his watch and displayed Cinderace's stats.

Display the system, who cares…

Ace clicked on the moves and enlarged them for everyone to see, while putting the Problem next to it.

[3 Entry Hazards, Aerodactyl Roar]

Ace looked at everyone, "How do you turn this situation into your advantage?" The students scratched their heads and Beluu raised her hand, "Um… Smack Down?" Ace sighed and said, "Wrong!"

He tapped on a Move, [Court Change]

[Court Change- causes any active battle effects to swap sides. This affects barriers like Reflect, multi-turn effects like Tailwind, and entry hazards like Spikes. Court Change does not cause any Pokémon afflicted with a volatile or non-volatile status condition to pass that condition to another Pokémon, nor does it transfer any Pokémon's stat changes to any other Pokémon.]

Ace explained, "With one Court Change, your disadvantage has become your Advantage. There is no perfect Strategy in this world. Pokemon have all sorts of moves to deal with all types of situations. The job of a Trainer is to judge when to use what, how to deal with scenarios that are disadvantageous, and make the right call at the right time to win!"

He put away the Hologram, "If you know nothing, even if you have a Rayquaza, you will still lose to a Magikarp with Ice Beam. After that, your Rayquaza eats you and it's GG." Ace played another clip.

It was a Sand Team this time, of course, his own battle clips…

A while later

The first class was over.

Ace rubbed his nose and let out a breath, "For Homework, I want you all to battle one of your classmates. I will review the footage later and discuss in the next class." he looked at the 5 in the front as they handed in papers.

Ace looked at them and his lips twitched…

[Throw a Bone at the Balloon.]

[Pop the Balloon]

[Get in close and use Bonemerang into the Tail Wind to break the Air Balloon]

[Beat up the Trainer]

[Use Rock Throw to either pop the Balloon or guide the Shedinja into a tight area before looking for an opportunity to hit it or the Balloon with a Bonemerang]

Ace looked at the 4th one, looking up at Dawn, who scratched her head, "Huh? It's not right?" Ace put the papers down and rubbed his temples, "They're all correct! Good job…" Kengo looked at them and waved his hand, "Ah!" Emily sat on Ace's desk, blowing Raspberries at the girls, who gushed, pinching their faces happily.

Ace sighed, it's gonna be a long year…
