The crowd was on the edge of their seats as the battle between Sage and Professor Oak continued to heat up.
Espeon had fallen but Sage still had a team of powerful Pokémon at her side and with renewed determination, she stood tall as she was ready to face the next challenge.
Professor oak recalled Dragonite and sent out Tauros.
Professor Oak has sent out Tauros!" the referee announced as the massive bull Pokémon appeared on the field with a loud roar and began stamping its hooves as it prepared to charge.
Sage's heart pounded in anticipation but she was ready.
Hitmonchan, let's go!" Sage called out as she sent out her Fighting-type partner.
Hitmonchan appeared on the field as it was bouncing lightly on its feet with its fists clenched and ready for action.
Tauros use Bulldoze!" Professor Oak commanded.
Tauros charged at Hitmonchan with incredible speed and stomped its hooves hard on the ground, causing the earth to tremble.
The shockwave hit Hitmonchan, sending it tumbling back slightly but it quickly regained its balance.
Hitmonchan use Mach Punch!" Sage shouted.
Hitmonchan darted forward with its fist glowing with energy as it slammed its fist into Tauros, sending the bull Pokémon crashing into the wall with a loud thud.
The crowd gasped at the sheer power of the blow.
Keep up the pressure, Hitmonchan! Use Bullet Punch!" Sage instructed and without hesitation, Hitmonchan continued its assault as it was unleashing a rapid barrage of punches while Tauros was still trapped in the wall.
Tauros use Zen Headbutt!" Professor Oak called out.
Tauros, despite being stuck in the wall, managed to summon strength as It charged up psychic energy in its head before charging forward with a glowing horn-like headbutt, striking Hitmonchan and knocking it backward.
Tauros, now use Wild Charge!" Professor Oak commanded.
Tauros' body crackled with electricity as it charged at Hitmonchan with full force as sparks flew in every direction.
Hitmonchan, dodge and use Sky Uppercut!" Sage shouted as with impressive agility, Hitmonchan leaped to the side, narrowly avoiding Tauros' Wild Charge and in one fluid motion, it followed up with a powerful Sky Uppercut, sending Tauros soaring into the air.
The crowd roared with excitement as Tauros struggled to regain control.
Sage saw her opening and seized the moment.
Hitmonchan use Mach Punch!" Sage called out
Hitmonchan's fist exploded with energy as it jumped into the air and landed a direct hit on Tauros, sending it crashing back to the ground with a massive impact.
A huge crater formed beneath the bull Pokémon as it lay unconscious.
The referee quickly stepped forward.
Tauros is unable to battle. Sage has taken the lead with six Pokémon remaining!" The Referee shouted.
The crowd erupted into applause as they were cheering Sage's hard-earned victory over Tauros.
Professor Oak nodded as he wasclearly impressed and recalled his fallen Pokémon.
Nice work, Sage but now it's time for a real challenge" Professor Oak said
Professor Oak tossed another Pokéball into the air as he sent out Machamp as the massive Fighting-type Pokémon landed on the field and flexed its powerful arms and letting out a roar that shook the arena.
The atmosphere was thick with tension.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sage wasn't backing down.
Hitmonchan, let's finish this!" Sage called out as she was ready for another intense fight.
Machamp use Vital Throw!" Professor Oak commanded.
Machamp rushed forward with its hands glowing with power as it attempted to grab Hitmonchan and throw it to the ground but Sage was prepared.
Hitmonchan, dodge and use Throat Chop!" Sage ordered as with lightning-fast reflexes, Hitmonchan sidestepped the attack and struck Machamp hard in the throat with a powerful chop.
Machamp staggered back as it was gasping for air but it quickly recovered and glared at Hitmonchan.
Machamp use Close Combat!" Professor Oak shouted.
Machamp charged forward and delivered a flurry of punches and kicks with each one landing with immense force.
Hitmonchan was hit several times but it didn't falter.
Hitmonchan use Fire Punch!" Sage commanded.
Hitmonchan's fist erupted in flames and with one powerful punch, it slammed its fist into Machamp's chest.
Machamp's eyes widened in pain as the fiery attack burned through its defenses.
Now, Hitmonchan use Sky Uppercut!" Sage called out as with precise timing, Hitmonchan launched itself upward and landed a devastating Sky Uppercut that sent Machamp flying backward.
The mighty Machamp struggled to regain its balance but it was clear it was beginning to tire.
Hitmonchan use Mach Punch!" Sage shouted as Hitmonchan's eyes glowed with intensity.
Hitmonchan cried out and delivered one final, powerful punch to Machamp, sending it crashing to the ground with a huge impact as Machamp fainted.
The referee stepped forward and raised his flag.
Machamp is unable to battle. Sage has six Pokémon left and Professor Oak has four remaining!" The Referee declared.
The crowd erupted into cheers as Sage took a deep breath as she was feeling the weight of the victory but she knew the battle was far from over.
Professor Oak recalled his fallen Machamp and glanced at Sage with a look of respect.
You've done well, Sage. But this is far from over. Let's see how you handle the next round" Professor Oak said.
Sage nodded, ready to face whatever Oak threw at her next as her team was strong and she had the confidence and determination to push through to the very end.
