Ash, Lillie, and the gang made it to Vermilion City, and first they went to the Pokemon Center, and saw someone come in with an injured Pidgey because of Surge, so Ash had to think very carefully of who to use, and in the end, he chose Bulbusaur, Charmander, and Pika.
"Well if it isn't more babies trying to challenge me!" Surge laughed.
"Hey, who are you calling babies?!" Ash protested, and Surge pointed at Pikachu.
"You didn't make your own Pikachu evolve," Surge laughed, ", you should evolve a Pokemon as soon as you can to win this!"
"We'll see!" Ash grunted, "How about a three on three?"
"Fine by me!" Surge exclaimed, "Don't feel bad when I beat you!"
First up, were Voltorb vs Charmander!
"Use Rollout!" Surge exclaimed, but Charmander dodged it.
"Use Flamethrower!" Ash shouted, and the Fire Type move dealt a critical hit, "Get ready to use it again!"
[Charmander HP 35/35] [Voltorb HP 20/40]
"Again!" Surge grunted, but Charmander managed to take out Voltorb before he got close enough, "DANG!"
"Alright, two to g-Charmander?!" Ash gasped, seeing his Charmander glow a bit. (I know it's way too early, but this is where it normally would evolve in the game!)
[Charmeleon HP 43/43] [Voltorb HP 0/40]
"MELEON!" Charmeleon shouted while finishing the evolution!
"A Charmeleon~" Ash and Lillie gasped, "AMAZING!"
"That's a surprise!" Surge chuckled, "Anyways, let's continue, Electrode!"
"Charmeleon, use Flamethrower!" Ash ordered, but Electrode dodged and used Discharge to win, "No Charmeleon!"
[Charmeleon HP 0/43 (Yes, it was a critical hit!)] [Electrode HP 45/45]
"If it evolved earlier, you could've won that!" Surge sighed, "You want to forfeit now?"
"NEVER!" Ash shouted, "You never know what's going to happen until the battle's over!" Ash then winked at Lillie, who blushed greatly.
"Go get him Ash!" Lillie squealed, and Snowy yipped in excitement!
"Bulbusaur, your turn!" Ash shouted, throwing another Pokeball.
"Bulbusaur!" The Grass/Poison Type yelled, ready to battle.
"Use Discharge!" Surged ordered, but it didn't do much to Bulbusaur.
[Bulbusaur HP 40/43] [Electrode HP 45/45]
"Great job Bulbusaur, now use Razor Leaf!" Ash shouted, which did a lot to Electrode, who used Rollout next, but Bulbusaur finished it with Vine Whip, "Great jo-huh?" They saw Electrode glow, and it took out Bulbusaur in one epic explosion!
(Note: Aftermath!)
"Pikachu!?" Pika gasped in Ash's backpack because he used it for cover, they saw both Electrode and Bulbusaur were out cold!
[Bulbusaur HP 0/43] [Electrode HP 0/45]
"Okay, that went badly..." Ash sighed, "But I won't give up yet, Pika I choose you!"
"PIKACHU!" Pika shouted while rushing to the field!
"Raichu, it's time!" Surge shouted, sending out Pikachu's evolved form, which startled Ash and Pika.
[Pika HP 50/50] [Raichu HP 60/60]
"Alright, use Thunderbolt!" Ash ordered, but Surge's Raichu used Thunderbolt back, and did a number to Pika, "PIKA HANG IN THERE!"
[Pika HP 12/50] [Raichu HP 60/60]
"Use Body Slam!" Surge ordered, but Pikachu dodged with Quick Attack.
"Alright, now you better get ready for this Surge," Ash chuckled, ", now, Electro Ball!"
"Pika Pika Pika Pi-KA!" Pika shouted, and sent an orb of electricity at Raichu, doing a lot of damage!
[Pika HP 12/50] [Raichu HP 30/60] (Don't ask, I'm following both Pokemon Anime logic and Pokemon Game logic here!)
"Quickly, use Thunderbolt!!!" Surge shouted in desperation, which took out all the lights and windows in the stadiums.
"That was close!" James gasped from outside, and his comrades nodded, then they looked back inside, and everyone saw this:
(Okay, mind if I say that this is like the ultimate dodge I've ever seen?!!)
"Pika, finish this with Quick Attack!" Ash ordered, Raichu tried to use Thunderbolt again, but it used all of his electricity to do that last move, and got hit!
[Pika HP 12/50] [Raichu HP 0/60]
"That was crazy!" Surge gasped, "I guess you guys aren't babies after all, so I think this is yours!" He handed him the Thunder Badge, and then Ash asked why he went so harshly, and Surge explained that Team Rocket forced him to only be a Gym Leader for the time being.
"Yeesh," Lillie groaned, ", do you know their next target? We'll do our best to stop them!"
"The St. Anne I bet." Surge sighed, "Please, take these tickets as a token of my gratitude that you'd be willing to take your own time to deal with those jerks!"
As for Team Rocket, they already left before they heard any of this!
