Chapter 425: Elemental Rank Starts
But why was the impact so low? Axel didn\'t know but he felt happy that the impact was not so high.
This move was \'Draco meteor\'. The move was very unrealistic. The description said that a comet would be summoned from the sky and it hit the ground. How did that even make any sense? He knew that he was in the world of Pokemon but this was just outlandish.
When those comets hit the ground, the training ground was not even destroyed. How could the impact be so low?
The impact might be very high for an uncommon rank Pokemon and even for some of the rare rank but it was not to the level of peak rare rank or elemental rank.
Axel could neither make heads or tails of it. The dust and the debris slowly settled and they could see what was happening.
Tyranitar was trying to stand up to fight again. It was seriously injured but it was still not down. It was also a pseudo-legendary Pokemon. Dragonite was also standing but after seeing that Tyranitar had not gone down with the attack, it started to feel that it was losing its senses and it fell to the ground closing its eyes.
It had fainted.
Axel took the mike from Agnes cause she was in too much shock to speak and said, "Tyranitar has won the battle and also won the uncommon rank competition.
There will be a break for 30 minutes before the start of the next battle."
Everyone gave their cheers for Tyranitar. It was a hard battle and it had won with all the effort.
Axel predicted that Tyranitar would win cause it was Red\'s Pokemon but he didn\'t think that the battle would be so close.
Agnes went to see how hurt Dragonite was. There were nurses to treat the injured Pokemon.
"Are pseudo-legendary Pokemon always that powerful?", asked Axel to Red.
"Yes, why do you think that training pseudo-legendary Pokemons is hard?", said Red with a smile.
Axel had seen Dragonite train but he had never seen it battle. It had only battled Axel\'s Pokemon who was way higher in ranks. So, he didn\'t know how powerful it really was.
"I see that you are confused. I had the same face when I saw my first pseudo-legendary Pokemon fight and a dragon-type Pokemon fight. You saw both of them at the same time.
Dragon-type Pokemons are very hard to train. They don\'t listen to the trainers cause they have dragon pride. Only proper love and powerful trainers could train them. It also takes lots of time for them to advance or rank up cause they take up a lot of energy to rank up.
However, that makes them very powerful. They had very high defense and very high attack power. They are less likely to fall down in a battle. If you see a wild dragon-type Pokemon, be very careful. They are very deadly.
The same thing is true with pseudo-legendary Pokemon but on a much higher scale. Axel do you know the difference between a legendary Pokemon and pseudo-legendary Pokemon? I asked you this cause it is not public knowledge."
"Actually, I don\'t have in-depth knowledge about it.", said Axel. He knew that legendary Pokemons were more powerful than pseudo-legendary Pokemon but that was it. It was very surprising that this was not public knowledge.
"Don\'t be embarrassed. It is not public knowledge for a good reason. You see, every Pokemon that you see here, these Pokemon species had a god-rank Pokemon in ancient times. There may have been multiple of them. So, in those ancient times, when a god rank Pokemon mates with non-god rank Pokemon, they would have a child and that child would grow up and reproduce its own child with its partner and so on.
These Pokemons later in life were called normal Pokemons. Some of them are powerful, and some of them are weak. This is due to the effect of their god-rank ancestor. Those species, that had less god rank Pokemons became less powerful today and those that had more god ranks became more powerful.
However, pseudo-legendary Pokemon are those species that have a high number of god-rank Pokemon. Their numbers were so high that even by taking average, a god-rank Pokemon mated with another god-rank Pokemon and their DNA passed down. Now, in this case, the mother and father were both god-rank Pokemons. So, stronger DNA were transferred to their descendant and they became pseudo-legendary Pokemons.
These Pokemon had more capability to be powerful and they are more powerful than other Pokemons cause both of their ancestors were god rank Pokemons.
Now, coming to legendary Pokemon. If you think that there is only 1 legendary Pokemon for every species, like there is only one Latios or Latias, then you are very wrong. They also have a tribe and there are multiple legendary Pokemons of the same species in that tribe. However, most of the time, there is only 1 tribe of legendary Pokemon species in the whole wide world.
There are also some legendary Pokemons who are only 1 in the whole world. For example, Raikou, Entei, and Suicune. We have also not found any evidence of the Kyogre tribe or Groudon tribe but we believe that there is one.
Legendary Pokemons are vastly powerful compared to pseudo-legendary Pokemon. They are a different concept. Legendary Pokemons are just born by the infinity energy of this world or are created by mythical Pokemons. Make no mistake, mythical Pokemon also created other Pokemon but they only created 1 legendary Pokemon per species. These legendary Pokemons then started to multiply and created their own tribe.
Unlike normal Pokemon or pseudo-legendary Pokemons, legendary Pokemon have a purpose to exist in this world. This purpose may be valiant or evil but they are brought into this world for something. However, such is not the case for other Pokemons.
Legendary Pokemons also have very low reproducing capacity. It is also assumed that legendary Pokemons are not born by reproducing but are simply created by infinity energy by their parents. We are not sure about this cause witnessing the birth of a legendary Pokemon is not something we humans have been able to do.
All in all, when a pseudo-legendary Pokemon is also a dragon-type Pokemon, that is a powerful combination and that is why Dragonite is so powerful. Tyranitar is also a pseudo-legendary Pokemon and has a good defense.", said Red.
After listening to all the information, Axel decided to get a pseudo-legendary Pokemon for himself. He would get it at the start of the Johto region. He wanted the Pokemon to be a dragon type too.
Dracorock would also be a dragon type but he didn\'t care. That pseudo-legendary Pokemon would be one of these core Pokemon in the future.
There were 8 pseudo-legendary Pokemons who were also dragon-type.
There were:
1. Dragonite
2. Salamence
3. Garchomp
4. Hydreigon
5. Goodra
6. Kommo-o
7. Dragapult
8. Baxcalibur
He would choose one of the 8 and raise it to its utmost potential.
The battle of elemental rank Pokemons was about to begin. Agnes was too emotional to be the commentator of the future battles, so, Axel took the lead.
"Now, the elemental rank battle would begin. We would draw the lots and see who would win.", said Axel.
By this time, people from all over the city had come to see the competition. There were no seats but Red used his contacts to set up a giant TV for everyone to see. This showed how influential he really was, cause Red set up that TV within an hour.
The lots were drawn and now the battle sequence had been decided.
Elemental rank:
1st battle: Ninetales VS Absol
2nd battle: Slowking VS Pidgeot
3rd battle: Gyarados VS Infernape
Tauros would move to the second round by default.
###
The first battle was a bit tricky. Absol was known for its weird tricks. It also had its passive move \'The world of darkness\' which really helped it in the battle.
It used moves like \'Dark pulse\', \'Stealth rock\', \'Stone edge\', and \'Assurance\'. However, Ninetales was an experienced Pokemon. It was way older than Absol and it was actually more stronger than Absol.
Its hidden ability \'Drought\' had been mastered by 100%. This increased it fire type moves to a whole new level. It used \'Sunny day\' too to increase the power of the sunlight which further boosted its power. It then used \'Flame charge\' and \'Heat wave\' and after a short battle won by using \'Overheat\'.
Axel expected the result but he was still sad that his Pokemon had lost.
###
The second battle finished very quickly. Slowking was on the verge of ranking up to pseudo-king rank while Pidgeot had just ranked up to elemental rank.
Pidgeot used its new move \'Air aura\' and started to use moves like \'Brave bird\' and \'Aerial ace\'. Slowking was a bit slow but its psychic powers helped it defend most of Pidgeot\'s attack and it was also able to land \'Confusion\' which totally bent the battle in its favor.
Slowking must have trained \'Confusion\' a lot cause the effect lasted very long and with the help of confusion, it won the battle.
###
2 of Axel\'s Pokemon had lost the battle and he was not feeling happy about it. Even though it was a friendly competition, he was still angry. He could understand why those 2 lost the battle. Pidgeot had just ranked up to elemental rank and Ninetales was an experienced Pokemon.
It was now time for the battle of Gyarados and Infernape.
Gyarados dominated this battle. First of all, Gyarados was already on the verge of ranking up to pseudo-king rank. Secondly, Gyarados was a water-type Pokemon while Infernape was a fire-type Pokemon.
Its level 42 \'Water manipulation\' and \'Hydro pump\' were especially effective. Even though Infernape was physically stronger than Gyarados, Gyarados showed its experience in dealing with such Pokemon.
Just as the battle started, \'Rain dance\' was used. Gyarados was easily able to fly with \'Sky walk\'. This made it much faster than normal Gyarados. Infernape started to \'Fire punch\' and other fighting-type moves but none of them could hit Gyarados.
Finally, Gyarados used a powerful \'Hydro pump\' to end the battle.
Axel was happy that one of his Pokemons had won the battle.
###
Now, only 4 Pokemons were left.
1. Ninetales
2. Slowking
3. Gyarados
4. Tauros
A break of 1 hour was given before the start of the battle. His mother and his sister were now selling home-cooked foods to the people who had come to see the battle.
At least 10% of the city population had already come to see the battle. Only 2 people would not be able to supply those numbers. The population of Hakone city had increased when Axel became famous. So there were also a lot of tourists in that group.
Red had to set up another 5 giant TVs for the audience. There were hundreds of thousands of people who had come to see the competition. Axel realized that this could also be one way of earning a lot of amount of money.
Agnes and her mother had already predicted the visitors. So, they had made some food and drink before. But these foods and drinks were nowhere near enough for such a large crowd.
So, now they were in a pickle. What should they do?
"Come out, All of you!!!!", shouted Red and threw 4 balls in the air.
They were Infernape, Alakazam, Lucario, and Machamp.
All of them started to help Agnes and her mother. Axel also called out Alakazam and told it to help the team.
However, even the additional help was barely enough. Both of the Alakazams were very efficient. They used their psychic powers to do a 10-person job and Lucario was also able to effectively manipulate aura.
###
After the crowd had their fill, they started to focus on the battle.
"The second round for the elemental rank battle would start now. Let\'s draw up the lots and see who is going to fight who."
The lots were drawn and the results were now open:
Elemental rank:
1. Ninetales Vs Tauros
2. Slowking Vs Gyarados
The battle between Ninetales and Tauros was a bit tricky. Tauros was a fast Pokemon. It also had high-power attacks. However, it was still not as powerful as Ninetales and it was not as experienced as Ninetales too.
Ninetales used its previous strategy with \'Drought\' and \'Sunny day\'. This strategy also worked well with Tauros cause its fire-type attack had been highly boosted.
The battle went on for 10 minutes. It was one of the longest battles but finally, Tauros lost and Ninetales won.
There was a round of cheers from the crowd. Ninetales had spent all of its life in Hakone city. So, most of the people of the city had seen and met Ninetales when Axel\'s mother went to the market to buy groceries.
So, it was very popular with the crowd cause it was also a beautiful Pokemon. Seeing the Pokemon they met often win the battle, made the crowd go crazy.
###
Slowking Vs Gyarados
This was the battle that Axel wanted to watch closely. Both of them were on the verge of ranking up and both of them were powerful Pokemons. This battle would basically show, who is the better trainer, Noah or Axel?
"Let the battle begin!!!!"
