Mitch's Johto Journey

The Amazing Heracross Trainer

    Mitch sits a chair in the Ecruteak City Pokémon Center and looks at a map of the Johto Region. " It's a straight shot from here, but we've still got a long journey ahead of us," he thinks to himself as he traces a route to Mahogany Town with his finger. " Mitch, your Pokémon are back to full health," the Ecruteak City Nurse Joy says as she places a tray of 6 Poké Balls down on the counter. Mitch walks over to the counter and lets Typhlosion out of its Poké Ball. " Ready to get back on the road," he says as he starts to put the rest of the balls away. Before Typhlosion has time to answer the question, another trainer quickly rushes through the doors and up to the counter. "Nurse Joy, can you please heal my Heracross!? We lost pretty badly to a trainer in the center of the city that's using a Heracross that he claims is unbeatable and refers to himself as The Amazing Heracross Trainer. He's been challenging other trainers and their Heracross to battles to prove that his Heracross is superior to other Heracross" Suddenly, one of Mitch's Poké Ball begins to shake rapidly and the Pokémon inside it lets itself out. "Cross, Cross, Hera, Cross, Heracross," Heracoss confidently cries whilst flexing. " Fine. We'll go battle this trainer. He seems a little bit too cocky," Mitch says as Heracross eagerly grins.

   " End this battle with Focus Punch," a light skinned trainer with black hair, yellowish-green glasses, a purple sweatshirt, purple pants, and black shoes yells as his Shiny Heracross punches another trainer's Heracross in the face with its glowing white right fist. "Heraaaaaaaaaaaaaa," the Heracross cries as it slides across the ground on its back and lands in front of its trainer with spirals in its eyes. " Another victory for The Amazing Heracross Trainer," he shouts as the other trainer recalls their Heracross and runs off just as Mitch, Heracross, and Typhlosion arrive in the town center. " Croooooss," Heracross hollers as it quickly flies forward and lands a few feet in front of the Shiny Heracross. " Well, looks like we got ourselves another victim," the trainer smirks as his Heracross confidently slams its fists together. " I'm Mitch Harper and my Heracross and I challenge you to a battle," Mitch exclaims as he runs up and stands behind Heracross. 

   " I didn't ask for your name and I don't care, but we do accept your challenge! Heracross, use Focus Punch," the trainer hollers as the right fist of his Heracross begins to glow white and it runs towards Mitch's Heracross. " Fight back with Brick Break," Mitch orders as Heracross twists its glowing white right arm into an odd angle and slams it against the Focus Punch. However, the trainer's Heracross proves itself to be stronger as its Focus Punch pushes through the Brick Break and hits Mitch's Heracross right between the eyes. " Crooooooooooo," it cries as it stumbles backwards and falls down on its butt. " Use Close Combat," the trainer hollers as his Heracross quickly runs forward and begins to rapidly and repeatedly punch, kick, and slam its horn into the body of Mitch's Heracross. " Heraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa," it cries as it starts to fall over on its back. 

  " Stay Strong Heracross! Use Horn Attack," Mitch orders as his Heracross prepares to slam its horn into the chest of the other Heracross. " Heracross, move out of the way and use Stone Edge," the trainer commands as his Heracross quickly spreads its wing and flies into the air, causing the Horn Attack from Mitch's Heracross to miss. " Crossss," it grunts in frustration as the trainer's Heracross summons a bunch of rectangular rocks with sharp tips out of thin air. " Counter it with Arm Thrust," Mitch orders as the other Heracross sends the stones towards his Heracross. " Croooooos," Mitch's Heracross shouts as it slams its glowing white palms against the stones, one after the other, destroying them on impact. "Use Body Slam," the trainer exclaims as his Heracross falls to the ground and falls on top of Mitch's Heracross with all of its body weight. " Keep it pinned to the ground and use Focus Punch repeatedly," he orders as his Heracross puts its horn against the chest of Mitch's Heracross, stopping it from getting back up, and begins to Focus Punch it in the face over and over again. " Heeeeeeeeeeeraaaaaaaa," Mitch's Heracross screams as the assault goes on and on with no end in sight.
