Destiny Battles

Mysterious Examination

Trevor continues to stare at the unknown figure, while the key-shaped weapon in his hand suddenly disappears. The young Pokemon Ranger then grabs one of his Pokeballs from his belt.

"Well," Trevor said to his unknown challenger across from him. "If it's a battle you want, then it's a battle you'll get."

His Mewtwo looks at its trainer with a serious expression, before communicating with him.

"Be careful," Gregor said with caution to Trevor. "We don't know who this guy is, so don't get cocky."

"Gregor," Trevor begins to say to the Genetic Pokemon standing next to him. "When have I ever been cocky?"

"You don't want me to answer that right now," Gregor stated before Trevor turned to face his mysterious opponent.

The man in the red-black coat silent tosses his Pokeball into the air. An Aerodactyl was revealed when the light from the Pokeball faded away. The Fossil Pokemon lets out a mighty roar, which does not intimidate Trevor at all.

"Geez," Trevor responded to seeing his opponent calling out an Aerodactyl. "Is everyone getting Aerodactyls nowadays?"

His opponent does not reply to the young man's comment. Trevor activates his Pokeball and tosses it into the air.

"Alright then, Aegislash! Let's go!" Trevor shouted out.

From the Pokeball, a Pokemon whose body resembles a golden sword emerges. The edge of its steel blade is white and somewhat serrated near the tip. Where the blade meets the hilt is a single, purple eye with a white slit pupil surrounded by black space. The handle forms a thick, striated spike. Two cloth-like arms emerge from the sides of the hilt. Each arm is primarily black and transitions to a pale purple with a slight swirl pattern at the tip. The sash-like arms split into four tassels at the tips. It always carries an ornate shield in at least one of its arms. The shield is gold and has three brown rings surrounded by black in the middle. It also has a brown rim with three lines radiating toward the center. Aegislash was currently in its Shield Forme. In this form, the Royal Sword Pokemon holds its shield up in front of its blade with both of its arms crossed behind the shield. In this form, the centers of the rings on its shield are white.

The Royal Sword Pokemon's face expresses seriousness as it looks ready to fight its opponent. Trevor makes the first move.

"Use Sword Dance! Now!" Trevor commended his Pokemon.

Twelve blue glowing swords circle around Aegislash. Red and orange lights shoot upwards in front of it and then balls of the same colored aura appear in front of Aegislash, before disappearing, raising its attack. The man in the red-black coat shows no expression to this sight.

"Now then," Trevor stated as he's ready to attack. "Iron Head!"

Upon hearing that attack order, Aegislash changes to its Blade Forme. While in this form, the Ghost and Steel-type Pokemon now carries its shield in its left arm and exposes its blade. It then starts charging towards the Fossil Pokemon with its blade covered with a shiny metal pattern.

At the last minute, before Aegislash could strike the Fossil Pokemon, the mysterious figure breaks his silence and orders a counterattack.

"Use Crunch." The man calmly said to his Pokemon.

Without hesitation, Aerodactyl bites down on the blade of the Royal Sword Pokemon, trapping it within its mouth, with no hopes of escape.

"What?!" Trevor said, regarding how Aerodactyl stopped their attack.

"Now, Fire Fang." The unknown figure said as the inside of the Fossil Pokemon's mouth becomes covered in flames

The flames started covering Aegislash's entire body as it was trapped in Aerodactyl's mouth with no way to escape it. The Royal Sword Pokemon cries out in great pain as the flames continue to consume its body. Trevor groans out of frustration while witnessing this sight happening before his very eyes. The man in the red-black coat grins as he believes this round belongs to him. However, Trevor has a trick up his sleeve.
