Tooth and nail they had fought. Even if these guys were NPCs they were clearly high level.

It was a little unorthodox but all partied had agreed. They called it the 'Iron Man Tag' Battle.

Two trainers against two trainers and each of the four of them with six pokémon.

They'd left a lot on the floor of this battle but twenty K.O.'s later four trainers and four pokemon remained.

Which meant he had five pokémon faint same as Sullivan and the other two trainers.


Sénon wiped the sweat from his brow. He really didn't want to lose.

It was all on Scolipede and 's last pokémon to hold out for the tight win.

"Don't think I'll be trying this again anytime soon." Doug said with a laugh as he swiped his arm across his chin, eyes narrowed and smile as confident as it was tired.

Junior the Machop, similarly, seemed rather confident despite standing at half the size of the second shortest fighter in the field, his grin possessing an eager edge to it as he brought both fists to his sides and breathed in sharply, his pectoral muscles and biceps enlarging sharply before he roared!

"Darn right! We didn't come this far just to lose- sen'em flying, junior!"

Across the fields, their opponents, a Coalossal and a Unfezant, roared and sneered back in response.

Something about losing this match rubbed the Head Ranger in the wrong way.

His tag partner had made huge strides of growth in the last half year.

Team Rocket was in the light swaying public opinion, he was Hoenn League's Ambassador to Kanto, he'd seen Dialga, Kyogre, Articuno, Celebi and two of the Tapu with his own eyes. Game Corner was expanding to Hoenn under his structure and Cait was pregnant.

He was supposed to be getting more mature and his ego in control.

He had just enough ego left to make a difference in this battle, because he didn't want to be the reason Sullivan lost this match.

"Get ready." Scolipede recognized his trainers hand gesture and began to harden its exoskeleton.

With a partner that sounded so determined, Doug felt borderline invincible!

"Awright, let's do this! We can tell Ms. Cait all 'bout it after!" The youth said cheerfully as he pumped his fist in the air.

Their opponents, however, felt equally strongly about everything going down- they had dealt with the long ass fight just as much as the main characters had, and deserved this win!

Their orders were shouted, and the pokemon leapt to action, eager to deliver victory to their trainers.

The Unfeazant was fast- and it wasn't even flying! Running top speed directly at the duo, it leapt high in the air and spread its wings before flapping strongly, a surge of speed sending it hurtling down towards Junior-

Before its wings spread once again just as the fighter went to intercept the blow, his eyes growing wide as his hands swung and caught nothing. His face, however, caught a faceful of claws, the little guy reeling back with a flinch!

Just as he did, Coalossal's arm rose towards the duo and blasted a massive fire star at them!

The Machop was steadfast, snapping out of it before jumping at his ally at the last second to try and push them out of the way, slapping them in the back for SPIRIT as the blazes slammed on a rock on the battlefield.

They had this!

Their side seemed to think alike; using the opening moments to secure some enhancements in attack and defense.

He affirmed the idea to tell Cait. "I'll make the nachos."

The opposing trainers pushing for an aggressive first strike choosing to attack from the whistle.

The bird closed in on Machop and the coalpile went after scolipede. Its defense was up a bit but a fire attack would still hurt. If they took that hit, it would be the only hit they committed to taking.

So be it.

In the face of super effective damage, Sénon and Scolipede sought one more enhancement.

Curling into a ball and revving as it spun in-place with increasing power and speed it would take the fire blast head on.

But instead of being ravaged by flames Scolipede was fired off by a power-buffing slap from Machop. Sullivan strategically saved the team a big loss of 'health'. "Nice save!"

Sending the spiky bug ball rocketing around the battleground.

He grinned wide at Senon's praise, rubbing his nose with a light flush!

"Thanks! And ya ain't seen nothing yet!" The youth assured, before turning his attention to the battle and sweeping his arm.

The bird was problem for Junior and the Scolipede alike- he didn't know what Senon's pokemon had in store, but Junior did not have the coverage to deal much damage to flying types.

Luckily for them, there was big, hot walking boulder trying to fry them right there.

As the Unfeazant rose in the air and attempted swung its wings down upon Junior, the little jumped and rolled out of the way of the wind blades released, sweat rolling down his cheek.

For its part, the Coalossal chose to focus on the pokemon it had advantage over, shooting blast after blast of fire after the fast rolling Scolipede, each shot missing but getting more accurate with each successive attempt!

"Heck of an annoying bird, eh Junior? How about we find a big, ugly stone to shoot it down with?" Doug said with a grin to Junior, dragging a grin from the Machop.

He dashed forth as two more blades of wind came after him, leaving in his path a trail of cuts running along the earth while he made a dash for the fire blastin' Coalossal...

And upon reaching it, slapped his arms around it, prompting it to stop its shooting in shock.

The little guy's muscles bulged impressively as he twisted on his heel and roared, swinging the large rock(-type) at the Unfeazant to its squwacking shock!

The Coalossal doubled down on fire attacks on a bug.

Now Sénon knew how that felt.

Luckily all the preparations had been made and Scolipede was reaching hard to follow speeds.

Leaving the Coal attacker in the dust the rolling bug smashed into the unfezant while it was unsuspecting.

Sénon queue'd up for a new tactic. They were perfectly set up to dominate the battle if they just changed targets.

"Lets switch dance partners J.D." He was improving when he said J.D. but nicknames were organic like that.

"Fine by me! That one's a little too flighty for us anyway!" Doug said with a chuckle, tipping his hat slightly. JD was a new one, but he had to admit: He quite liked it!

The Unfeazant squwacked inelegantly when it was suddenly rammed into by the Scolipede the sent hurling aside before it managed to right itself- only to have its own partner thrown at it, the Coalossal slamming into it before flattening it against the floors.

Angrily, the Unfeazant attempted to throw it off, to little avail; the massive hunk of rocks picked itself up but a few moments later, glaring at the Machop furiously before unleashing a roar that shook the earth, throwing itself back at the little guy whilst covered in flames!

Junior responded by breathing in deep before his torso suddenly broadened once again, stomping down on the floors to dig his heels as he prepared to intercept!

The Unfeazant for it part, flapped its wings to push off the floors once the giant was off it, glaring at its own companion acidly for a moment before turning its anger onto the bug-type.

Rearing back, the bird flapped its wings once again- and Doug's hat nearly flew off his head in response, the entire arena feeling the sudden weight of a powerful gale upon them!

A bit of messy coordination send the coal and the bird into a collision. Sénon and Doug were literally running circles around their opponents.

Every second they wasted the battle fell further from their hands. It would have been prudent for the guys on the other side to try to go back to fire on bug and flying on fighting tactics.

They didn't which freed up Scolipede to keep ripping about battlefield, what damage HURRICANE did also only proved to push along that bugged-out speed.

Rolling through the hurricane's eye Scolipede collided with the unfezant again; crashing it into the battle floor.

The power of its rocky ROLLOUT now roughly eight times the standard, and its speed growing rapidly.

Against such power, and against typing advantage at that, the Unfeazant could not bring itself back to its feet after taking the blow, crumpling to the ground.

Passed out, it was returned back to its pokeball, leaving the Coalossal entirely on its own.

To which its trainer said...

COALOSSAL- MEGA EVOLVE!




Light broke through the trainer's mega accessory, before the Coalossal was enveloped in a cocoon. Not a second later, it broke out larger, stronger and meaner, the arena's temperature easily doubling as it reared back and roared.

Before such a display, Junior could only flinch, before suckling in a deep breath and bulking up some more. It was nowhere nearly enough- but there was no choice!

Take a power and then double it.

Then double it again every time you use it consecutively.

By the third time you used it, it would be sixteen times its normal power.

That was kind of force Scolipede was rolling with now, augmented even further by its natural ability to gain speed the longer a battle went on.

It was nearing the height of its speed potential and damage output and that was just as well given the mega evolution at play.

Sénon had seen it in action plenty of times but never had to battle against it until now. It seemed that power was more common than he thought.

He scratched his wrist, subconious thinking of his small collection of unused megastones.

Scolipede was gone from the rubble of the unfezant's landing crash before the smoke cleared barrelling down the mini mt. chimney.

With the last trainer raising the stakes with a Mega-stage they needed ROLLOUT, to holdout!

Scolipede used 3rd ROLLOUT!

The coalossal unleashed a gargantuan roar that shook the very arena before it threw its fully body weight against the Incredible power of the Scolipede's roll out.

A booming that made the air pop out of Doug's ears whipped across the battle tent, the trainers thrown off their feet, the people on the bleachers pushed back onto their chairs.

The Coalossal's hands were wrapped around the Scolipede's spinning form, grinding away like steel on a grinding wheel, the pokemon roaring as it attempted to stop the other with incredible physical might and Super power.

The heat within its inner furnace increased eth every second, the sound coming out of its mouth akin to a locomotive's exhaust-!

"Junior!" Screamed Doug- "GO!"

Junior came flying into the heated terrain, arm reeled back as he cracked his palm across the Scolipede, giving her some SPIRIT!

SUPERPOWER washed over Scolipede but the damage was largely mitigated, its exoskeleton practically designed to take the abuse of fighting types.

For the other guys it was just bad luck.

Scolipede had reached top speed and wasn't going to get any faster, but wasn't going to get any slower either.

The colossal Coalossal managed to get stubby mits around the rotating exoskeleton of the scolipede but by now the bug had entered a primal state.

Things were going too fast, it couldn't process everything, it wasn't a psychic type.

Harder, better, faster, stronger. Another Machop 'slap' pushed it to overdrive.
Scolipede was COACHED!
Scolipede used 4th ROLLOUT!

Even in the grasp of a mega evolved pokemon it wouldn't relent on its unyielding rotation. Its scales normally wine-colored was a glowing red; its velocity topped out it spun its fourth rollout, scales cutting through the coal formation of the mega-evolved pokémon.

Scolipede was just too hot to handle. The fighting and bug pokémon found a synergy and formation to topple even the highest form of evolution in this battle.

It seemed the Mega Coalossal was on its last legs despite just getting to the party.

Revving so hard it dug into the earth through the cement of the battle floor Scolipede locked in, tearing the terrain apart and ripping the stage to shrapnel bits of cement, rebar and earthen debris.

Like a chainsaw through a tree made of glass.

Scolipede used 5th ROLLOUT!

The gargantuan pokemon had lost, it realized moments before it fainted. It had no measures to deal with something like this. As its body armor was peeled away bit by bit, grind to dust, the Coalossal came to be at peace with this conclusion, accepting the outcome as it was thrown off its feet and its back met the floors, getting a good look at the dark blue skies of the night.

Its trainer, on the other hand, was a screeching mess; poor guy had gone through the bloody gauntlet for nothing.

The light of Mega evolution flashed and faded through the night one last time, and a regular, KOd Coalossal was left were a towering beast once stood.

Junior fell on his ass, his legs giving way under him as he realized that it was over. Finally, the gauntlet was-

"IT'S OVER!" Screamed Doug in absolute delight as he threw his arms around Senon and tried to haul the man in the air in a hug, swinging around on his heels.

That had, by far, been the most intense, brutal endurance match the youth had ever undergone- and that was in a tournament were he had faced the bloody Champion.

"We won!!!"

Well that was a blast. As the mega-mon toppled over in the wake of an unstoppable force, the Head Ranger covered his face and stood defensive in his stance from any debris flying about.

The shockwave of their collision knocked him off balance he barely caught himself in time.

Doug's vocally stating their victory was when Sénon finally unclinched his butt.

His own victory cry was an eager and guttural, "YEAH!" as he crouched down and pumped his arm. It came down to the wire but they earned their win. It was a battle Sénon would remember for years to come.

He turned to J.D. ready to keep his word. His apartment was nearby and Cait was there resting now. "Whose Hungry?"

Scolipede would be grateful and wanting to thank the Machop that it partnered with for helping achieve such victory over a titan of a pokémon. It would, it would 'bug' to see that Machop again.

Once it eventually stopping spinning.
