Pokemon: Ace's Adventures!

Chapter 27: Chapter 27:Raichu Vs Smeargle!



As soon as the referee signaled the final match to begin, Ace's voice rang out, "Smeargle, start with Swift and low-powered Stored Power attacks!"

Smeargle let out a feral howl, his rainbow aura pulsating around him. Stars began shooting from his back, streaking across the battlefield, while his hands summoned glowing orbs of rainbow energy, firing them at Raichu.

"Raichu, neutralize the Swift with Iron Tail and dodge those Stored Power orbs with Quick Attack!" Surge ordered.

Raichu's grin matched Surge's intensity as its tail gleamed metallic. It spun, slicing through the barrage of stars with ease. Using its Quick Attack, Raichu zipped across the battlefield in blinding bursts of speed, evading the orbs of energy.

Ace observed Raichu's movements intently. 'That speed is no joke... Surge isn't holding back at all. This Raichu is more stronger than the one shown in the anime. But Raichu's bound to make contact with the field sooner or later...'

Suddenly, Raichu landed on a portion of the battlefield where Smeargle had earlier set Toxic Spikes. Purple barbs erupted from the ground, piercing Raichu's feet. Raichu grimaced as purple energy swirled around its body, signaling the poison taking effect.

"Poisoned already?" Surge muttered, clicking his tongue. Then he sighed and shook his head, a grin creeping back onto his face. "Should've seen that coming. Kid's too crafty—laying Toxic Spikes before Overdrive mode was genius."

Ace smirked, his confidence growing. "Let's keep the pressure on, buddy!"

Surge quickly regained his composure. "Raichu, use Nasty Plot and follow it with Rain Dance!"

Raichu crouched low, its cheeks sparking wildly as dark energy surrounded it. The Electric Mouse Pokémon's eyes gleamed maliciously as its special attack power surged. It then leapt into the air, its tail glowing faintly. Clouds rapidly gathered above the battlefield, and rain began to pour down.

Ace's eyes lit up. "Smeargle, use Sketch!"

Smeargle howled, his tail glowing as he imitated Raichu's Nasty Plot and Rain Dance. The rainbow aura surrounding him intensified as Ace shouted, "Now keep using Nasty Plot, Smeargle! Max out your special attack and complete the Overdrive mode!"

The audience watched in awe as Smeargle repeatedly boosted his strength, the aura around him growing fiercer with each howl.

Surge, however, wore an amused expression. "Boost all you want, kid. Raichu, THUNDER!"

Ace's mind raced. 'Thunder has perfect accuracy in the rain... Smeargle can redirect electricity with Iron Tail, but the field's a crater now. He'd waste too much energy neutralizing it!'

"Smeargle, fire a Stored Power at the rain clouds!" Ace countered, thinking fast.

Smeargle's aura flared brighter than ever. With his special attack fully maxed out, he launched a massive rainbow energy sphere into the stormy sky. The thunderbolt racing down collided with the Stored Power mid-air, creating an explosion so powerful it shook the entire gym.

Spectators clung to each other as the shockwave rippled through the stadium. Dawn screamed, "Why are there so many explosions today?!"

Surge seized the moment. "Raichu, Dig!"

Raichu ignored the growing pain of Poison as he darted underground just as the shockwave passed. Smeargle landed on the cracked ground, his Overdrive aura stabilizing as he clenched his fists. He glanced at Ace, who gave him a confident nod.

"You're doing amazing, buddy," Ace said. Smeargle barked in response, leaping into the air to avoid Raichu's anticipated attack.

Ace suddenly smirked as an idea struck him. "Smeargle, use Gust and power it up with Stored Power!"

Surge raised an eyebrow. "Gust? What's this kid planning now?"

Smeargle spun mid-air, whipping up a small whirlwind with his tail. The rainbow aura surged into the Gust, transforming it into a dazzling, swirling rainbow tornado.

Surge's eyes widened. "Raichu, counter with Thunder!"

Raichu unleashed a powerful bolt of electricity from the clouds. The Thunder and the rainbow tornado collided, dispersing both attacks.

Professor Cerise shot up from his seat, excitement gleaming in his eyes. "That's incredible! Stored Power shouldn't be able to boost Gust like that... but Smeargle's unique ability to use multiple moves simultaneously, combined with Technician, makes it possible!" He turned to the others excitedly. "This combination is literally impossible for any other Pokémon to replicate!"

Gary clenched his fists, watching the battle with renewed determination. "How do i counter that." he muttered under his breath.

Meanwhile, Surge wiped a bead of sweat from his forehead, his grin never faltering. "Raichu, Thunder Punch, then set up Light Screen and Thunder!"

Raichu's fist crackled with electricity as it charged forward, while his face had a grimace from the pain of being poisoned. Smeargle countered with a flurry of Bullet Seeds infused with Stored Power. Raichu deflected the seeds with its Thunder Punch, then quickly created a shimmering barrier around itself.

Ace grinned. "Smeargle, Sketch!"

Smeargle copied Raichu's Thunder Punch and Light Screen, adding the moves to his growing arsenal. Ace wasted no time. "Now Stored Power on the thunder again!"

The resulting explosion made a dust cloud form in the battlefield. In the aftermath, Smeargle dashed through the smoke, hitting Raichu with a Quick Attack. Raichu retaliated with a fierce Iron Tail, sending both Pokémon skidding backward.

As sparks crackled around Smeargle, Ace's grin faltered slightly. "Paralysis... Static triggered after all." He muttered under his breath, "I thought it had Lightning Rod, but Surge tricked me with that Light Screen setup!"

Surge let out a hearty laugh. "Caught you off guard, huh? Raichu, Brick Break!"

Raichu charged, its glowing fists aimed at Smeargle.

"Smeargle, counter with Slash, Night Slash, and Iron Tail!" Ace shouted.

The battlefield erupted into chaos as the two Pokémon clashed in a furious melee. The clang of metal and fists echoed through the gym as Smeargle wielded a glowing white Slash, a dark Night Slash, and his metallic Iron Tail against Raichu's brutal Brick Break punches. Both Pokemon pulled through their status conditions and fought with all they have got.

"Raichu, Thunder, then Hyper Beam!" Surge roared.

Ace's heart pounded. "Smeargle, jump into the air and use Thunder Punch with Stored Power!" He clenched his fists, a bold idea forming.

As Smeargle jumped, lightning surrounded his fist, glowing with rainbow energy as the thunder enhanced by rain and nasty plot of raichu absorbed in the already powered up rainbow thunder punch."Smeargle, use... Lightning cutter!" Ace roared, drawing inspiration from one of his favourite Animes from his past life.

Smeargle's makeshift Rainbow Lightning Cutter collided with Raichu's Hyper Beam in an explosion so powerful it obliterated the battlefield. Both trainers shielded themselves while slamming on the walls as shockwaves tore through the gym.

When the dust finally settled, both Raichu and Smeargle lay unconscious in what was left of the battlefield. The referee staggered to his feet, rubbing his head. "Raichu is unable to battle, and Gym Leader Surge has no Pokémon remaining. The winner is Challenger Ace Drago!"
