Viola wasted no time after the referee called the battle to start. "Surskit, Bubble Beam!" she exclaimed.

"Dodge it!" Morgan commanded Chespin.

Surskit shot a stream of bubbles at Chespin, but Chespin sidestepped and the attack hit the ground instead.

"Cespin, use Rollout!" Morgan ordered.

"Sticky Web!" Viola shouted.

Chespin curled into a ball and rolled towards Surskit. As Chespin neared Surskit, Surskit shot a web at him, and Chespin was promptly caught in it. Chespin halted his Rollout attack and struggled to free himself from the web. However, the web had caught him in a ball, so the most he could do was roll and thrash around.

"This battle is going to end really fast," I heard Conner mutter.

"Don't be like that!" I stated, "Morgan has another Pokemon, remember?"

"But so does Viola," Conner pointed out.

"Now, Surskit, use Ice Beam on the field!" Viola yelled. Surskit aimed an Ice Beam at the ceiling. The beam split and showered down on to the field.

"Roll out of the way!" Morgan exclaimed. Chespin, still in the ball, managed to roll away from all the Ice Beams. However, the field was completely covered in ice.

"There's no way that Chespin can battle on that," Conner noted. I couldn't argue with that.

Genevieve and Nick had be watching the battle silently.

"Surskit, use Signal Beam on Chespin!" Viola commanded.

"Dodge it!" Morgan ordered.

Surskit aimed and fired a pick beam of light with blue shapes in it at Chespin. Chespin attempted to roll out of the way, but couldn't move on the ice battle field. He cried out as he was struck with a super effective move.

"Chespin!" Morgan gasped.

The blast had knocked off the Sticky Web around Chespin. Chespin had managed to endure the blast, but it was obvious that he couldn't manage being hit one more time. Chespin could barely even stand do to the icy battle field.

"Return Chespin!" Nick suddenly called out from where he stood.

"Do what?" Morgan asked, looking at Nick.

"Return him!" he shouted, "It's not against the rules, and he'll still be able to battle later! Send out your other Pokemon instead!"

Morgan held out Chespin's Pokeball. "Return!" she exclaimed. A red light shot out and encased Chespin before withdrawing back into the ball. "Good job," Morgan told Chespin, "Get some rest."

Morgan took another Pokeball from her Pokeball belt. "Come out, Pidgey!" she exclaimed.

Pidgey appeared in a flash of light flying above the battle field.

"Now that ice battle field won't matter," Conner noted, "because Pidgey can fly above it."

"Pidgey also has a type advantage," I added.

"Pidgey, use Gust!" Morgan called.

Pidgey's wings glowed white and he flapped them frantically. Huge fists of wind rushed over Surskit and sent Surskit spinning across the ice field.

"Surskit, use Ice Beam!" Viola shouted.

"Dodge it!" Morgan ordered.

Surskit came out of its spin and shot a beam of ice at Pidgey. Pidgey manuvered around the beam.
