" Then let is introduce the partic.i.p.ants of the first match of the semi final rounds." The female commentator, Marian's voice came.

"On the left side of the field is a trainer from Oldale Town, Rosy Hartman. She is a very skilled trainer. She has reached top 64 in Hoenn league tournament, and also reached top 32 in the Sinnoh Pokemon league.

This is not all for she has achieved all this before her seventeenth birthday. Folks we have a genius here."

And the audience shouted out in excitement when Rosy's information is disclosed.

She continues to explain more about her," She specialises in the electric type as we saw her defeat her opponent with her Lanturn. We can expect more electrifying matches with her around.

With these qualifications under her belt she is one of the top contender for being the winner of the Tournament." As Marian praised Rosy.

Stain wasn't far behind and continued forward from where Marian has left things.

"Folks, you don't have to worry about the match being a one sided fight, for her opponent herself is someone a royalty.

And when I say royalty, it not only meant her t.i.tle but also her ident.i.ty.

Yes, folks we have a royalty among us. On the right hand side of the field is Elsa Reid, the Princess of Almia who is also called the Snow princess.

She has completely dominated the matches till now with only her glaceon. Even though she is just fourteen this year, it doesn't make her any weak. So let's see how she takes on her experienced opponent.

Now let the match between two extraordinary genius begin."

After the introduction was done, the attention of everyone is turned towards the two girls in the field.

They are fingering the pokeball and kept an eye on each other.

The field in front of them was fifty metres wide and long. There is a small water hole in the center of the field while the entire field is covered in gra.s.ses which range from short to some tall enough to even hide humans in them.

At the peripheral areas are the dense cl.u.s.ter of trees which can also provide camouflage to the Pokemons.

This place puts water type Pokemon in much trouble because of the lack of water for maneuvering purposes in the battle.

As they look at each other, The referee started the introduction of the match," This is a semi final match between Elsa Reid of Almia City and Rosy of Oldale Town. This will be a three on three pokemon battle with subst.i.tutions allowed.

When a trainer manages to defeat all the pokemons of his opposing trainer , then he will be declared the winner and advance to the finals which will take place tomorrow." After saying that he looks to both of he trainers and asked,"are the rules clear to both of you?"

The two nodded stating that they did understand it all.

" Then please release your Pokemon." He requested them to release their first Pokemon.

Rosy and Elsa sent out their Pokemon at the same time.

Rosy sent out a Magcargo while Elsa sent out her Weavile .

Magcargo is a limbless, snail-like Pokémon consisting almost entirely of bright red magma. . Its oval eyes are large and yellow with small pupils, and extend upward from its head. It has a bulbous snout and a wide mouth, with two drops of magma dangling from each side of its upper jaw.

Magcargo's back is protected by a gray, spherical sh.e.l.l composed of hardened, but brittle magma, forming irregular lumps and plates. A streak of fire leaks from the side of its sh.e.l.l.

Meanwhile Weavile is a bipedal, weasel-like Pokémon with a pale, gray body that has several feathery areas. It has a bright red crown and collar made of wide feathers, and a single, thinner feather on each ear. The ear feathers are smaller on a female Weavile. Weavile has two tail feathers and three claws on each paw.

There is a yellow, oval marking in the center of its forehead. Its eyes are red with three eyelashes, and four fangs protrude from its upper jaw.

It is a battle between the powerful defensive fire ground type and fast stealthy ice dark type . ( Though dark type isn't so popularised and it's typing isn't officially recognized yet. )

When the two pokemons made their appearance, the commentators too introduced the Pokemon.

Marian started," Elsa has sent out her menacing looking Weavile , and Rosy has sent her aggressive Magcargo.

This is going to be a very interesting battle between a fast and aggressive Pokemon and a slow and defensive Pokemon.

The two pokemons are almost completely opposite of the other in their attack and battle style preference. "

And then Stain continued," since most of the people are from Kanto, so you may not know these pokemons.

The dark coloured Pokemon is Weavile. It is an ice type pokemons just like Elsa's glaceon which is an ice type evolution of Eevee.

They are known for their devious and intelligence. They are ruthless against their prey as you can understand from their sharp claws. They usually lives in cold, icy areas where it forms small packs of four or five members. A pack of Weavile uses teamwork to take down its prey

They are among some of the fastest Pokemons though their stamina and defense left much to be desired. "

After his explantation, the cried shouted," Ahhh. " And some of them even looked at the clawed Pokemon with vigilance and fear in their eyes.

The ice dark dual type pokemon just smirked at that, apparently he enjoyed their fear for him.

After Stain introduced Weavile, Marian gave a brief introduction regarding Magcargo is," On the other side is Magcargo. They are usually found in the volcanic areas of Hoenn region and are mostly solitary with only very few of them living in groups.

They aren't as aggressive as Weavile, but if they seem someone threatening for them or their nest, they do melt down the intruder without haste.

It is also dual fire and rock type, symbolising it has complete advantage over Elsa's Weavile.

His strong sh.e.l.l can defend Magcargo against many attacks which can put Weavile in some problems."

On hearing this, some audience gripped their head as they felt they bet wrong and are going to lose money.

Stain elaborated and explained what he might do in this case," The most effective move now would be to subst.i.tute his Pokemons and save him for some later Pokemons. Since she is at a disadvantage now. "

With Alex and Julian,

After looking at the two Pokemons, Alex asked the person standing close to him," Did your little princess teach her Weavile some fighting type moves?"

The person next to him is Julius with whom Alex will fight in the semi finals.

Julius is confused by such an abrupt question but he didn't delay and replied," Yes she did teach him brick break. "

Alex on hearing this looks at the Magcargo or more specifically at Magcargo's sh.e.l.l attentively. After some moment, he said," Then it seems it will be an easy victory for your princess."

" Why? His highness is at disadvantage here. The two pokemons are at similar tier strength but the speciality puts His highness in trouble." Julius spoke his mind.

" And that's why the importance of Pokemon information is much required. Let me clarify, that sh.e.l.l of Magcargo isn't as strong as the commentator said it is.

It is pretty light compared to their average species. From what I can infere, as long as Elsa can survive the initial surprise, she has the victory in her bag. " Alex told him what he thought about this round.

"But why?" Julius has a confused look etched kn his face, on hearing Alex's words.

Alex just smiled at him mysteriously and said," just watch, if you don't understand it I will explain."

Alex just stood over looking at the front while Julius looks at Alex confused. He doesn't understand why he is being so approaching and helpful with him when every past action of his seem against them or to be most precise against his highness, Elsa.

But he doesn't put much thoughts on this and let things go as it is. He thought to himself,' If Alex can be helpful to them then many problems will be smoother in the future. '

At the battlefield,

As soon as the commentator have finished explaining about the two Pokemons which are normally not found in Kanto region, the referee signalled to start the Pokemon fight,"Let the battle begin."

As soon as these words are uttered, Rosy yelled put her command,"Rock throw. Completely cover the field with

Rocks."

Meanwhile Elsa command was to hide in the forest.

Elsa and Weavile noticed that the gra.s.s field was covered in rocks and this prevent Weavile from travelling around in fast speed, bit it also have some advantage which Elsa noticed. She mumbles," There are enough hiding spots now."

Weavile then jumps out of the forest as Magcargo started to light the trees in fire. Elsa immediately orders,"Weavile sneak attacks"

Weavile then used quick attack to move around magcargo and used his claw to slash at the giant slug pokemon.

He slashed at Magcargo a couple of time and before his flamethrower can hit Weavile, Weavile dodges at the right time.

Magcargo was wailing in pain from those attacks yet Rosy wasn't disturbed by it, for she has a small smirk on her face.

" It's time to change the situation, Magcargo." Rosy shouted out loud enough for everyone to hear.

Magcargo eyes become focused and as soon as Weavile appears in front of him he is. .h.i.t by incinerator.

It seems Weavile is also burned from the hit.

This sudden rush in speed of Magcargo stunned everyone, but Alex is as calm as ever. Julius is also puzzled by this so he asked Alex,"What happened? How did his speed increased suddenly? "

he only utters a word," Weak armour."
