Journey Towards Greatness

Now both trainers have their pokemon ready, a beeping sound went off indicating the start of the battle, Kelly didn't waste a second and started the offense as soon as possible.

Kelly "Dragonair, use Aqua Tail"

Her Dragonair started to move, its tail glowed brightly and water covered its tail area, the speed it moved impressed Julian, he realized that Kelly is quite a trainer, for her Dragonair to reach such speed is indeed impressive.

Julian "Use Dig"

Before the Aqua Tail could land, Drilbur buried underground and quickly came out from behind and landed a hit on Dragonair from behind, Julian got the first hit and it was big. when other trainers so this they felt a little confident in Julian's skill but they are still not convinced that Julian is going to win as Kelly's record is very impressive.

Kelly "This is getting exciting, Dragonair, use Ice Beam"

Dragonair who was sent flying backward quickly made a turn in midair and sent a powerful Ice Beam at Drilbur. Since Drilbur is still just a Ground-type he is weak to Ice-type attacks and his special defense is not that great for him to take it head-on, seeing how fat the attack is coming towards his Drilbur, Julian knew he has no time to dodge.

Julian "Use, Protect"

Drilbur quickly put on a shield in front of him and shielded himself from the incoming Ice Beam, the Ice Beam landed and it sent ice crystals flying everywhere as they got reflected by the Protect, but Kelly was not done, seeing the Ice Beam has failed she called out another attack.

Kelly "Use, Dragon Tail"

Dragonair abandoned the Ice Beam and quickly followed up with Dragon Tail, Protect cannot Protect Drilbur twice in a row from two different types of attacks so he needs to take this head-on.

By now Julian also figured out how Kelly battles, she is an aggressor, she gives very little chance for her opponents to make a move.

Julian "Use Metal Claw to counter"

As the Ice Beam destroyed the Protect and Dragonair was right behind it, Drilbur covered his massive claws with Steel energy and swung it at the incoming Dragon Tail, since steel resist dragon type attacks this will balance it out and Drilbur still has the upper hand in pure physical strength even with his tiny body.

As both attacks clashed, it created a massive sound and explosion followed right after, the shockwave blew away the dust and rubble from the battlefield and cleaned it up, the exchange was a draw in the eyes of other trainers but few of them noticed a little difference, Dragonair hurt it's tail when it clashed against that hard massive claw of Drilbur.

If Kelly continues to attack with tail attacks it can put her at a disadvantage, it is up to Kelly now, if she noticed this she will stay clear from Tail attacks but if she hasn't noticed this it can be troublesome for her.

Julian 'Drilbur use Dig once again"

Hearing Julian, Drilbur dug into the ground once again completely disappearing from Dragonair's vision.

Kelly "Dragonair, fly up and blast an Ice Beam inside the hole Drilbur just made"

Hearing Kelly, her Dragonair flared up its wings which also look like ears, the ear lookalike expanded into long wings and it flew up in the air and then aimed at the hole that Drilbur just dug through.

It was indeed a very good move but Julian isn't worried about it at all became Ice Beam can only travel in a straight path and once it hits a surface it starts to freeze it, unlike fire or water type moves that can bend and travel through gaps, Ice Beam can't do that so Drilbur is safe, he is already far away from the hit point and has already made several underground passages for him to escape even if things go bad.

As Julian expected the Ice Beam covered up the hole and nothing else, Drilbur came out as he will not be able to attack his opponent with a Dig until it is on the ground.

Kelly "Now use Dragon Rush"

Seeing its target has resurfaced the Dragonair roared and covered itself with dragonic energy, soon a massive blue glowing dragon appeared over the Dragonair's body and Dragonair dove towards Drilbur in full speed, trying to do as much damage as it can.

Seeing the attack coming Julian knew he has to attack big as well, he knows how powerful a Dragon Rush is, it is one of his favorite finishing moves while battling with his own Garchomp.

Julian "Use, Skull Bash"

Hearing Julian's call every training above the battlefield was surprised as this is a suicidal move from Julian's side, Skull Bash is a very powerful move but for a pokemon to perform this move, it has to raise its defense first and then attack its opponent with a hard but deadly move, seeing the speed of the Dragon Rush there is no way a pokemon can raise its defense in time.

Everyone expected this battle to be over, even the ones that thought Julian had the edge after seeing him battle.

Drilbur tucked his head and started to raise his defense while Dragonair got very close to him while using Dragon Rush, as the blue dragon opened its mouth to chomp down on Drilbur, he suddenly moved.

Drilbur pointed his head towards the blue dragonic energy and charged straight into it while using Skull Bash, the power behind this move was insane, as soon as both moves made contact, there was a massive explosion, this explosion was caused by the Dragon Rush being destroyed and turned into explosive energy.

Drilbur's Skull Bash bashed right through the Dragon Rush and hit the Dragonair right on its head, with just this one attack, the spectators heard two different noise, the first one when the moves collided and the second one when Drilbur made contact with Dragonair.

Dragonair was sent flying out of the explosion cloud and it crashed straight into the wall and fainted, nobody expected this at all, they didn't think Drilbur will be able to use Skull Bash but he did it anyway.

Julian has been training Drilbur for this for quite a long while. When he captured Drilbur he noticed that Drilbur already knew how the move Skull Bash when the System checked it, but when Julian asked to perform it, it was very slow and Drilbur couldn't control the massive amount of energy behind that attack.

So Julian always trained Drilbur in specific ways so he can use this move, first he trained Drilbur on how to control his own energy, second on how to increase his defense fast, after a month of hard work and training Drilbur has finally learned how to use Skull Bash.
