"So how long are you staying on the SS. Anne?" Rudy asked curiously both he and Misty were eating some lunch together now, their Pokemon out eating some store-bought Pokemon food.

"Just a week, I'll be getting off in Celadon with my friends," Misty said with Rudy giving a nod.

"Celadon is a pretty big place." Rudy commented thinking back on one of his visits there.

"It is and I'm looking forward to exploring it," Misty said with a smile on her face. "What about you?"

"I'll be heading back to Trovita Island once this is over with." Rudy commented with a chuckle. "Mahri is probably bored out of her mind staying with Drake while I'm here."

"I'm surprised you didn't bring her with you, the way you talk about her she's special to you," Misty said as Rudy laughed.

"I asked if she wanted to come but she wanted to stay in the Orange Islands, something about being warmer there." Rudy said with Misty giving a nod, getting that.

"Yeah it can get a little cold in Kanto, especially when winter hits," Misty said thinking more about it. "Or if you're in the Mountains."

Rudy nodded at that, giving a slight chuckle in doing so. "But the snow is beautiful." He said remembering the first time he's seen it considering he too has lived in the Orange Islands all his life.

"Thunderbolt!" Austin quickly ordered Pikachu to launch the high-voltage attack at the water-type but Gary was just as quick.

"Iron Defense," The steel-type move deflected the electric attack while Wartortle's durability went up. "Now Rock Tomb."

Pikachu had to use agility to dodge the rocks shooting from the ground, the two Starters giving a glare at each other-both of them wanting to win this for their trainers.

"Quick catch that mouse with Ice Beam," Gary said showing that he's been teaching Wartortle all sorts of moves as the ice attack shot right at Pikachu.

"Block with Iron Tail." Pikachu's tail glowed as it slammed right into the Ice Beam, keeping it at bay. "Combine it with Thunderbolt."

"Chuu!" Pikachu cried out as the electric attack shot through the Ice Beam, blasting Wartortle back, but he looked fine showing that he had trained to resist electric attacks.

"Tle," Wartortle smirked in anticipation as he shot blasts of Water Gun at Pikachu who began to flip around them.

"Alright time to kick it up a notch," Gary said a grin on his face. "Scald."

Austin looked shocked as boiling water shot right at Pikachu who used Double-Team to dodge it with Agility to run around Wartortle the turtle looking very annoyed by this.

"Der!" Charmander began to cheer for Pikachu as the mouse kept dodging the attacks.

Green watched the fight a bit more as she pickpocketed enough people for now and she was truly curious about who would win this.

The battle could go either way at this point.

Besides, it's been a while since she enjoyed watching a battle due to her lifestyle.

Well, that and she wanted to find out more about this Pokedex after seeing Austin pull his out when that-er bird evolved.

"So still think I'm the dead last of Pallet?" Austin asked Green eyes widening at that little part.

These two were from Pallet Town as well?

"Yeah, you were still late to start your journey Ashy-Boy," Gary said looking at the running Pikachu and grinning. "Wartortle the one to your bottom left is the real one, use Water Pulse."

"War." Wartortle spun around throwing the sphere of water right at Pikachu before he could dodge, sending him flying across the field before he landed a bit dizzy-showing the side effect of the attack.

"Oh no Pikachu," Austin said realizing that the mouse was now confused.

Wartortle didn't waste any time as he rammed into Pikachu with a Tackle, the physical assault snapping Pikachu out of it but he lost quite a bit of health from that hit alone.

Wartortle grinned only to grimace with electricity sparking around him.

"Damn Static," Gary muttered while Austin took advantage of that.

"Electro Ball."

Gary ordered a Protect as Pikachu jumped into the air but the Static took effect with Wartortle's limbs locking upright as the ball of electricity slammed into him, knocking him back.

Seeing how Wartortle looked ready to collapse along with Pikachu, Austin ordered one final attack. "Thunderbolt."

But it seemed that Gary had one last trick up his sleeve. "Facade!"

Electricity met the energy blasting from Wartortle the attack was much stronger due to the status effect before an explosion took place covering the whole field.

"Why is it that an important battle always seems to end with something like this?" Austin grumbled.

Eventually, the smoke began to clear as everyone-trainers and the audience began to watch before seeing both Pikachu and Wartortle unconscious.

... It was a tie.

Austin sighed and walked to the field to pick Pikachu up while Gary returned his Wartortle with cheers from the audience.

While the young trainer will admit he was a little upset at not winning he was happy with how it turned out because it was a fun battle.

Besides, there was always a time to finish this later on when they were both stronger.

Gary looked at Wartortle's ball as he held it now seeing just how far he still has to go to try and be the best.

In their last encounter Gary only saw Charmander battle and thought that his 'Rival' only won that one battle as a fluke but now seeing the strength of his other Pokemon including him having a Pidgeot on his team now showed that he truly underestimated Ash.

"Tch." Gary turned away with Austin looking back at him. "At least you're raising your Pokemon."

Austin just rolled his eyes at that.
