At last, Ribbit was starting to show signs of tiring. While the small water-type had effortlessly dodged chomp after chomp, Stone Edge after Stone Edge, it was clear that the small Pokémon's agility wasn't unbeatable. It would just be a matter of the Froakie lasting long enough to wear the ice-covered Meteos down. This battle was a close one; much closer than the last battle Josh had with Cian. Unlike in their previous match, which felt like the Rustboro Leader was ahead from wire to wire, the back-and-forth in this one was electrifying to watch.
As the HYDRO PUMP surged toward the ice-laden Aerodactyl, Josh called out for a retaliatory THUNDER FANG. "Swerve around it, Meteos!" the cornered Gym Leader cried in desperation. The Terastallized Pokémon shrieked as he opened wide his jaws glowing yellow and white. Before the diving predator could get anywhere close, the powerful water blast socked him squarely in the face, electricity jumping across the HYDRO PUMP attack itself. All Ribbit had to do was release the attack before the electricity got to it, and Cian would have impressively defeated a Hoenn Gym Leader on two consecutive challenges.
As the terastal crystal around Meteos shattered like glass, the Pokémon's exhausted, rain-battered body could handle no more. With a loud crash, the flying-type crashed into the center of the battle court, Josh falling to his knees as his trainer's platform opened up. "How could I lose AGAIN?!" the drenched, frustrated trainer wailed, recalling his Aerodactyl. "I LET YOU DOWN, METEOS! I'M SORRY!!"
