Episode 40: Kicking & Punching

Rai: Before we head to the gym I want us to check something out.

Wart: What?

Rai: A couple of years ago the gym here was fighting type but then the new psychic type gym leader Sabrina took the spot of Saffron City gym leader. I want to see the former gym leader.

Leon: Let's go then.

They arrive at the former gym and are greeted at the door by a Hitmonchan Pokewoman and Hitmonlee Pokeman.

Hitmonchan: Welcome to the fighting dojo!

Hitmonlee: Where everyone is welcome!

Hitmonchan: I'm Chan.

Hitmonlee: And my name is Lee.

Rai: Hi we're here to see the leader of this gym.

Lee: Oh, we're sorry to tell you but our master has left this dojo to us.

Chan: Yes, he doesn't visit often so we doubt you'll meet him soon. I assume you want to ask about Sabrina don't you?

Rai: Yeah thats the exact reason we're here.

Lee: How about this, we'll tell you everything you want to know if you can beat every trainer in here.

Chan: 5 trainers, 5 of you.

Leon: But there's 6 of us.

Lee: Precisely, you will be fighting me and Chan. Please follow me to the battle arena.

Wart: Good luck Leon.

Leon leaves with the 2 Pokemen, as the rest of our heroes battle against the 5 blackbelt trainers.

Leon: So why single me out? Wanted to fight against the strongest of the group?

Chan: Oh no not at all. How could the only one of you all that isn't fully evolved be the strongest?

Lee: Saying you are the strongest of your friend group only puts your friends down.

They laugh and mock Leon, enraging him as he charges toward Chan with a Fire Punch. She counters with her own Fire Punch breaking Leon's hand.

Chan: See? How do you think you of all people could beat Sabrina?

Lee: You don't even know how to properly use your strength.

Leon: I'll show you, I'll show everyone just how strong I am!

Leon uses Dragon Breath and covers the whole battlefield with purple flames. Lee jumps over it and hits Leon with a Double Kick. He's knock away into Chan's Mach Punch. Leon uses Smokescreen to disorent them but Chan still hits him with a Thunder Punch.

Chan: I think it's far enough to say this is over, right Lee?

Lee: Not yet, look at him now.

The smoke is blown away as standing there, emerging into his new form is Leon the Charizard.

Leon: Thank you but I'll end this now.

With a single Wing Attack, he knocks out the 2 dojo masters with ease. Thanks to that training, Leon has finally reached his true potential.

CHARIZARD REGISTERED.
