Betraying The Legend

Chapter 23: Dealing With a Defeat

"Hey big sis is that Mega evolution?" Mew asked Lillian with sparks in her eyes. Lillian nodded "it is" she answered and pointed at Red's Charizard "that is mega Charizard X, it's one of Charizard's Mega forms" She said, remembering Alain's mega Charizard and how hard it was to beat

over at the battlefield Arron didn't looked impressed "I was wondering how fast it would take you to mega evolve" He said with a cold voice. Red stared at Arron with shock all over his face "You knew?" He asked, completely taken back. Arron coldly smiled "of course i knew. I thought Lillian would tell you about our abilities" he said and looked at his fiance who just shrugged as if saying 'don't blame me' Arron chuckled "she did huh?" he asked. Red looked at the floor with embarrassment, Lillian did tell him but he didn't take it into account. he quickly shook it off though, he had a battle to win "no matter if you knew or not we are going to win this battle!" he exclaimed. Arron smiled "come at us"

"Charizard Fire Blast!" Red commended and pointed at Pikachu Charizard unleashed a powerful pulse of blue flames that looked like tha Japaneses symbol for fire (火) towards Pikachu but Arron didn't even flinch and nor did Pikachu "It's time of the battle to really start, Pikachu thunderbolt please, 50% power should do the trick" He asked his best friend who nodded and gave a powerful electric attack strait at the flames. the moves struggled against each other and at last canceled on another with an explosion. "hey my ribbon!" Mew called from the sidelines but Arron and Red didn't hear her

Arron chuckled with no emotions in his laugh "I'll give it to you Red this fire blast is the strongest we ever faced" he complimented the young trainer. Arron turned to Pikachu "and as for you buddy.. i think you're thunderbolt needs a bit of work. 50% should have been enough" he told the mouse Pokemon. Pikachu scratched the back of his head with embarrassment "well no matter you stopped his attack that's good" Pikachu nodded and looked back at Red and Charizard, both of them standing with pure consternation written all over their bodies '50% it can't be it has to be a joke' Red though ad panicked, thank's to Lillian he knew that Arron was strong but only using half of his Pokemon's strength to stop Charizard's full power fire blast is unreal

"now it's our turn Pikachu, volt tackle!" Arron called his next move. "Pika!" Pikachu started to run forward leaving a white trail after him which eventually became and electric aura around the electric type. "run around them buddy" he simply said signaling Pikachu to start. the mouse Pokemon obeyed his trainer and ran around the giant dragon with inhuman (in this case inpokemon) speed, becoming a yellow blur which ran in every possible direction "now change it to iron tail!" Pikachu's tail glowed metallic white as he came from behind Charizard ready to strike, luckily red say it just in time

"Charizard behind you! hit it with Dragon Claw!" He ordered as quickly as possible. The lizard Pokemon span around and with a green claw lunched Pikachu into the air. Red smiled "you did it!" he said excited but one look onto Arron and all of that disappeared. Arron had a large grin on his face which made all of Red's confidence leave him "now just how we practiced buddy, volt... iron tail" Arron ordered with a smile. Pikachu was surrounded with electric yellow aura and his tail glowed white
