A battle with high hopes

It's been a day already and both me and Zorua were hyped for the gym battle between us and Surge buut…We were still asleep.

_Knock knock_

"Ayuna!" Chloe was calling me but I was still asleep so I didn't answer.

Eventually she just opened the door to see me and Zorua sprawled out on the bed in our pjs fast asleep.

"Ayuna- '' She gently nudged me but I still didn't budge.

"Ayuna." She shook me more violently this time but instead of walking up I just turned on my side.

She sighs and instead of trying to wake me up she released Charmander from it's pokeball.

"Charmander…bite him-" Charmander nodded and bit my arm.

I woke up instantly with a quick but somewhat loud scream of pain while shaking him off.

"You said you wanted to fight Surge..what's the hold up?" Chloe asked, arms folded and pouting.

I scratched my head, still tired.

"Can't this wait?" I asked i wanted to sleep so badly.

"No get ready..believe it or not there's a lot of people like you who wanna fight this guy-" Chloe explained.

"But-" I tried to protest but she cut me off by pointing to the changing room my apartment had.

I sighed and got up to get ready.

__________

"Ok Surge! It's just you..and me!" I said when I caught sight of the gym up ahead i was hyped to finally fight this guy.

I ran in the gym full of energy and with Chloe following close behind me with her Toxel in her arms.

I burst through the doors to see that the room was pitch black and I could hardly see anything.

"Lights-" I heard a voice say within the darkness and the lights flickered and finally turned on focusing on one man ..a buff dude with spiky yellow hair and military clothes.

He was sitting on a rock with a pokemon by his side.

The pokemon looked back at us and it seemed to be a orange mouse with a long tail and a thunderbolt at the end with bright yellow pouches on its cheeks.

"Someone there?" The man looked back at us and grinned.

"You must be challengers-" He got up and turned to us completely.

"You ready?" I picked up a pokeball.

"I assume this is your third pokemon battle." He threw a pokeball down to the battlefield and out came a voltorb.

I threw my scarf back and pointed at the Voltorb.

"Go Zorua!"

Zorua jumped out onto the battlefield without hesitation.

"Voltorb use thunder shock!" Voltorb started to spin, generating electricity and soon enough the same electric energy came flying at us.

"Zorua dodge it!"

Zorua on my command dodged the thunder shock.

"Now use shadow ball!"

Charging up a ball of dark energy she shot a shadow ball at the Voltorb.

The damage landed and the Voltorb shook it off and waited on the next command.

"Voltorb use Swift!" Voltorb started to spin in one location and stars shootout at Zorua.

"Zorua dodge and use copycat!"

Zorua dodged again and pulled off the move copycat, copying the move swift and using it against voltorb.

The attack landed and Voltorb was unable to battle.

"Yeah, let's go, we did it Zorua!" I cheered for my buddy.

"Not so fast." Surge interrupted our celebration.

"I have one more-" As Surge says this Raichu enters the field ready to battle.

"Pft- we got this." i said Zorua got into a fighting position and the battle continued.

"Raichu use spark!" Surge commanded.

The Raichu started to run up to my Zorua.

"Zorua dodge the attack and use Dark pulse!"

Zorua tried to dodge the incoming attack but Raichu made a sharp turn and hugged my Zorua using spark.

"Zorua try to use shadow ball!" Zorua began to muster all of her strength to create a ball of dark matter at point blank range while being shocked.

Raichu, no matter what refused to let go and the shadowball connected.

Both Zorua and Raichu were sent back and Raichu just brushed it off but Zorua seemed to be in bad shape.

"Raichu Thunder punch!" Surge commanded and Raichu started to run at Zorua again.

"Zorua dodge i-" i was cut off by the sound of sparks flying and the punch connecting hitting my Zorua back by a bit.

She tried to get up..She tried to keep fighting but in the end…..she fainted.

"Come one kid that's all you got?" Surge mocked.

I returned Zorua..

"I know this might be a losing battle but I have no other choice."

"Go! Kabuto!" I sent out Kabuto and it was more than egare to battle Raichu.

"A fossil huh- interesting…" Surge spoke to himself.

"Raichu use spark!"

Raichu started to run for Kabuto.

"Kabuto dodge and use mudshot!" Kabuto managed to dodge the attack by the Raichu and used mudshot.

That looked like it hurt Raichu a lot!

"Raichu use thunder punch!"

Raichu shook its head to get back into focus and used thunder punch on my Kabuto.

Kabuto looked like he was about to faint already…

I sighed and returned to Kabuto.

….

"I surrender."
