GUARDIAN POKEMON: TAIGA'S SHINY CHARIZARD, PLAYING THE ROLE OF A GREEDY DRAGON TRYING TO DEFEND ITS LARGE HOARD.

DECORATIONS: Plentiful fake gold coins, lava decorations built in from Fiery Path itself, hidden away AC units to make the heat more tolerable, mostly built-in magma/lava/fire from both the charizard and the surroundings.

TRAPS: FAKE FLAG, given the REAL FLAG if you manage to safely traverse your way to the pissed off looking charizard most people wouldn't dare approach. Make sure not to let it scare you and make you trip! Upon reaching its main hoard, it will pull out the real flag and hand it to you.

Shiny Pokémon versus shiny Pokémon. Greedy dragon versus greedy dragon.

The black Charizard answered Chomper's onslaught of Outrages with a series of Flamethrowers and Flare Blitzes. The green Hydreigon defiantly pushed through the infernal assault, closing the distance, before delivering a decisive Crunch. The winged lizard writhed in pain as three sets of jaws clamped around its neck and arms, finally acquiescing to give the real flag away as long as its treasure hoard was left untouched.

That was a reasonable trade. After all, Andrea and Chomper weren't really interested in riches.

One thing Hoenn's Pokémon Racing Federation recently tasked Josh with was finding a suitable location to have a race where only fire Pokémon could compete. What better place was there in Hoenn than the Fiery Path? Of course, there would need to be Pokémon stationed around any magma pits to ensure no racer fell into the bubbling goop. While most fire Pokémon could easily shield their riders from excessive heat, all it would take would be one touch of the red, orange, and yellow bubbling soup to seriously injure or even kill.

A canyon offshoot around a half-mile south of the Mirage Palace, where Josh retrieved his initial Absolite, was the best location he found. Josh swooped into the canyon aboard his Charizard, Ares. The fire-type's tail blazed hot, and the two were off, barreling through the canyon's twists, turns, and fiery hazards. Bubbling pools of magma occasionally sent lava bombs flying into the air, a cooled one getting a roar out of Ares when it struck him behind Josh.

Beyond the location he would put the finish line was an angry-looking black Charizard that looked ready to torch Josh at a moment's notice. The two dragons shouted at each other as Ares circled the horde, inching into tighter and tighter circles. After two bursts of FLAMETHROWER collided with one another, both fire-types backed down. That served as proof of the duo's courage, the black dragon presenting the orange one the canyon hoard's flag. That was way too close for comfort!

A loud roar caught Corona's attention as he and Shalin were soaring above the Fiery Path's red canyon. Unable to see fully down the canyon due to crisscrossing natural bridges above, she had the Charizard descend, only to see a large, black Charizard standing atop what appeared to be a huge hoard of treasure! Streams and spheres of fire as well as gouts of steam raced past Shalin from the end of the corridor as she and her dragon weaved around them, some of her skin turning red from a fireball grazing her!

On the final stretch, a continuous line of FLAMETHROWER circled about the canyon passage, Shalin reining the Charizard ahead of it. The stream of flames was hot, Corona shielding his rider from them the best she could. As Shalin crossed into the hoard chamber, the Charizard backed down, smiling toward the rider for her skill and bravery. Pulling the base's flag from beneath a huge stack of gold coins, the black dragon presented it to her.

In all honesty, it really would take another world-ending catastrophe or an actual knife pointed to her throat for her to ever consider the possibility that her pokemon would be unable to protect her.[break][break]

"Left or right, Eyja?"[break][break]

A bark from her Yamper gets her to take the left path, her hands holding onto the cliffside to aid her balance as she goes. Past the narrow routes and the burning lava, it takes a while but she eventually reaches the base of the treasure mountain. And as the shiny Charizard glares her down, she feels a lurching sense of dread, the wisps of fire in its maws sending shivers down her spine.[break][break]

"I'm not scared of you."[break][break]

Though she shakes, she refuses to avert her gaze, clenching her fists as Eyja quietly lazes on her shoulders. And after a few seconds of this horrible staredown, she finds herself being awarded with a flag, grabbing it before slinking off without another word.

[attr="class","skullbody"]Greedy dragon, meet conquering knight! Isaac stepped into the dragon's lair, his Aegislash following close behind him. Was it a bad idea bringing a steel type into one of the hotter parts of the Fiery Path? Maybe. But it was on theme, dangit.[break][break]

The ancient rivalry was stoked the second Isaac entered Charizard's territory. Blasts of flame launched across the room, their light harsh enough to make the pass' red stone look white. Luckily, from this distance, they were easy enough to avoid.[break][break]

Rivers of lava came next, punctuated by more blasts of fire. Unable to dodge in midair, Isaac was forced to raise the King's Shield to keep himself safe. He could feel the heat of the flame against his buckler, but he refused to yield. Victory was so close that Isaac could practically taste it![break][break]

Finally, he stood toe to toe with the titan, his eye narrowing to match the Charizard's own. It let out a raging roar. Isaac esponded with a hearty bellow, hoisting his blade high. And then all was silent.[break][break]

Isaac sheathed his sword. Charizard eased his claws. The two exchanged a nod of mutual respect before parting ways, Isaac with his flag and Charizard with his hoard intact.

Colton stood at the entrance to the base, staring at the black Charizard blasting fire from its mouth at the opposite end of the cave. The golden coins glittered with each Flamethrower that burst from its mouth, a bit too much to be proper gold. He had to admit, it all fit together quite thematically, which could only mean that the real treasure was still under the dragon's protection.

Arti floated up behind him, its grin broad as it looked around the room. The Rotom was quite the opposite of its trainer, always much more excited to see new places and find new people to mess with and these secret base hunts had been the greatest thing Arti had experienced. "Well...might as well get that flag while we're here. At least it'll make the heat worth it," Colton said, prompting his Rotom to spin in the air cheerfully as the pair walked their way up to the Charizard.

Colton watched it rear its head back, flames building up in its mouth. He waited until just before it began to lean forward before pointing. "Hydro Pump!" he shouted. Arti's door flipped open, water gushing out to meet the Flamethrower and snuffing the fire out before it could ever really start. Colton picked up his pace, his Rotom right behind him as another command left his mouth. "Shockwave!"

A pulse of electricity left Arti's body, rolling over the Charizard and making its muscles seize for a moment, just enough time for Colton to reach it. Sweat dripped down his forehead as his gaze met the Charizard's, his fist clenched as he hoped his gamble payed off. After a few tense moments, the black dragon relaxed and held out a flag for Colton and with how quickly the tension left his body, the poor guy almost fell over as a sudden sense of fatigue overtook his body.
