"BOOM!" 

Giovanni's Rhyperior, impressed by the Rhyhorn's resilience, decides to show off its tactics as it used its other arm canon to shoot a rock blast directly onto the side of Rhyhorn's head causing it to stumble back Rhyperior's hand glowed with a focus blast as the rock type brought down its arm down but due to Musharna's trick room, Rhyhorn was able to outspeed and dodge the attack as Rhyperior's focus blast landed on the forest floor.

A brilliant beam of energy erupted from its fists, streaking toward the ground with frightening speed. The air around it sizzled and crackled, as if unable to contain the sheer force of the attack.

As the beam struck the earth, the ground erupted in a cataclysmic explosion of dirt, rock, and splintered wood. Trees were uprooted and flung aside, their trunks shattered by the force of Rhyperior's attack. The air filled with a deafening cacophony of snapping branches and crumbling earth, as the forest floor was transformed into a chaotic landscape of debris and destruction.

Musharna used Psychic to launch Rhyhorn towards Rhyperior who raised his arm cannons and shot a rock blast at Rhyhorn sniping the rock type from the sky as Rhyhorn fell to the destroyed forest floor.

Rhyperior charged towards the Rhyhorn again, but this time, instead of attacking head-on, it veers off to the side and attacked from the flank. 

Rhyhorn caught off guard, stumbled and fell as it saw Rhyperior standing over him.

Rhyperior had a cruel look on his face as it pointed its arm cannons forward before blasting Rhyhorn with a wave of flames intending to slowly kill the rock type by cooking Rhyhorn's organs inside its rock hide.

Rhyhorn struggled to rise, its body trembling with pain as its body was engulfed by flames.

Suddenly, a brilliant light erupted from the flaming, engulfing Rhyhorn in a blinding glow.

As the light faded, the small Rhyhorn had transformed. Its body had grown larger, and its tough hide had become even thicker and more resilient. Its horns had grown longer and more pointed, and its arms had become more muscular, capable of delivering devastating blows. With a swift motion, Rhydon grabbed Rhyperior's horn and brought it down in a crushing blow.

Rhyperior recoiled but quickly regained its footing. With a furious cry, it unleashed a Focus Punch that sent Rhydon reeling. But the determined Rhydon quickly recovered, delivering a devastating hook that caught Rhyperior by surprise.

Rhyperior bit down on Rhydon's punch, its jaws clamping down with incredible force. But Rhydon was not deterred, grabbing Rhyperior by the waist and throwing it to the ground.

Rhyperior stood up, its eyes blazing with anger as it faced its opponent. But Rhydon was already charging forward, its massive body hurtling towards Rhyperior like a speeding train. With a resounding crash, Rhydon's Giga Impact collided with Rhyperior's body, sending it flying through the air.

....

" Terrain Punishment!" Austin commanded as Musharna started to focus its psychic energy. Suddenly, the ground around them starts to shake, and the rocks and boulders around them start to lift into the air, hovering ominously.

Dugtrio looks around, confused and disoriented by the sudden shift in the terrain.

Musharna's flower patterns glow with psychic energy. It concentrates its energy on the ground beneath Dugtrio, and suddenly the ground splits open, causing Dugtrio to fall into a hole.

Dugtrio tries to dig its way out, but Musharna uses its psychic power to keep the ground firmly in place, trapping Dugtrio below as Musharna started to move the rocks and boulders around, directing them towards the hole. The rocks and boulders start to rain down on Dugtrio, who used tri attack to destroy Musharna's attack

" Hypnotic Future !" 

Musharna's flowers glowed yet nothing happened as Giovanni gave a quick command.

" Night slash !" 

Dugtrio moved towards Musharna their body was enveloped by a dark type of energy as Austin panicked and shouted.

" Psychic Soccer !" 

Musharna immediately launched an Energy ball at Dugtrio who dodged the attack when suddenly the Energy ball was enveloped by psychic energy the attack moved perpendicularly blasting Dugtrio across its face as the air above Dugtrio glowed with psychic energy as Musharna's future sight launched a Hypnosis on Dugtrio, who tried to dodge it, but failed.

Dugtrio starts to feel drowsy and its movements slow down. Musharna took advantage of this and charged toward Dugtrio with a powerful dream eater the drowsy Dugtrio was heavily damaged while Musharna huffed and puffed at the strain on its body.

"You're quite something, Mr. Super," Giovanni said with a sly grin. "I abhor violence, you know. I'm a businessman; blood is an expensive liability. Let's put an end to this conflict and form a partnership. I'm sure it'd be advantageous to have you on my side." He extended his hand towards Austin.

Austin glared at him, his eyes filled with contempt. "Yeah, I don't work with psychos involved in drugs, human and Pokémon trafficking, organ harvesting, and country infiltration."

Giovanni's smile vanished, replaced by a scowl. "You speak as if this country is innocent. Kanto has committed its share of atrocities."

Austin snorted derisively. "So, you want me to judge the sons for the sins of their fathers?"

Giovanni leaned in a dark glint in his eyes. "Ah, it's not about what Team Rocket represents. You're after some petty vengeance, am I right? You do realize that vengeance won't bring back your lost loved ones."

Austin's face reddened, and his voice cracked with raw emotion. "Vengeance may not bring them back, but it's the only justice I have left in this harsh, unforgiving world. It's the only way to make you pay for your sins! If I don't take revenge, who will? I won't sit idly by and let my enemies get away with murder. Call me a hero, a villain, whatever you want. I will show you why I was not to be trifled with. That I am not weak, that I won't back down. Vengeance won't bring her back, but it'll offer some closure. It'll give us peace of mind, knowing that justice has been served. That's all that matters in the end!"

The force of Austin's outburst caused his voice changer to malfunction, revealing the high pitch of a younger voice. Giovanni's eyes narrowed in surprise.

"You're just a kid?" he sneered.

Austin stood tall, defiant. "So what if I am?!"

Giovanni smirked. "Then allow me to unmask you, 'hero.'"

Austin clenched his fists, fire in his eyes. "Come and try. I'll rip out what's left of your godforsaken hairline!"

Giovanni and Austin locked eyes, each filled with determination, as they released their respective Pokémon onto the battlefield.

....

As the ground shook and dust rose, Austin gasped as Giovanni released a Garchomp from its Pokeball, and it emerged with a ferocious roar. Its imposing, massive body towered over all the other Pokemon on the battlefield.

The Garchomp's rough skin was dark blue, and it had piercing red eyes that glowed with an intimidating aura. Its jagged teeth were sharp enough to crush boulders, and its claws could slice through steel with ease.

Giovanni stood behind his formidable Garchomp, his eyes scanning the battlefield in anticipation. The air crackled with energy, and the tension was palpable. But now, as Austin revealed his latest Pokemon, a strange feeling of confusion and unease washed over Giovanni.

Before him stood Chansey, a pink and white creature with a gentle and innocent appearance. But as Giovanni looked into the Pokemon's eyes, he could sense darkness lurking within. The Chansey's grin was wide and malevolent, and Giovanni couldn't help but feel a shiver run down his spine.

He studied the Chansey carefully, trying to gauge its strength and abilities. 

" Dragon Claw." 

" Protocol Dragon !"

Giovanni ordered as Garchomp shot like a bullet, and lunged towards Chansey. Garchomp's claws glow light green forming around each of Garchomp's fins and turning them into a claw-like shape before attacking Chansey who released an ice beam at the land shark pokemon who dodged and slashed at Chansey sending the pink pokemon flying.

" ~ Snap ~ " Giovanni snapped his fingers as Garchomp lunged towards a calm Austin Musharna's trick room glowed when a pink blurred formed in between Austin and Garchomp as Chansey appeared with a mocking grin even though she was deathly afraid of the lank shark Pokemon.

Chansey used the move to sing and released colored musical notes from its mouth when it sang. When the music notes hit Garchomp, it fell asleep yet Giovanni didn't panic as he had trained his Garchomp to immediately use the move Sleep Talk when he was put to sleep in a battle.

Garchomp's fin oozed with poison as it jabbed into Chansey's body who gritted her teeth as her eyes glowed with psychic energy.

Giovanni frowned as he sensed the psychic energy coming off from Chansey yet nothing happened.

Garchomp suddenly woke up as Chansey used Soft-Boiled, healing her wounds. Garchomp tries to attack her again, but Chansey counters with Double Team, creating multiple copies of herself as the land shark passed through her.

Garchomp growled and released a Dragon pulse as the clones as Chansey used Minimize, becoming smaller and more difficult to hit. 

Giovanni frowned at this game of cat and mouse before he gazed upon his opponent, he couldn't sense any emotions of anger, frustration, or happiness from his opponent that could give Giovanni an insight into his opponent's plan, it was as if everything was going according to some kind of plan.

Giovanni felt a chill down his spine as he took a deep breath and he found his breath visible. Giovanni turned to Cloyster and as if the Pokemon was reading his trainer's mind, he shook his head. 

Giovanni frowned as he turned to the battlefield his Garchomp was rushing forward, its powerful legs propelling it towards its opponent with incredible speed as it left Chansey and targeted Austin.

But then, in an instant, everything changed. As Garchomp leaped into the air to deliver a devastating Dragon Rush attack, Austin spoke a single word: "Cryokinesis."

Suddenly, the air was filled with a burst of icy energy, and a thick mist of frost rose around Garchomp. The powerful Dragon-type was caught off guard, and as the dust cleared, Giovanni's heart sank. For there, in the center of the icy haze, was his beloved Garchomp, encased in a block of solid ice.

' How did this ?' Giovanni thought before he remembered that Chansey had fired off an ice beam and that psychic energy that did nothing.

'Don't Tell me, Chansey used that psychic energy to capture the ice-type aura of her ice beam and manipulated it to lower the temperature of the atmosphere rapidly essentially making the water in the air into ice.' 

Giovanni thought as he sensed it.

Giovanni stood in the heart of the forest, his pulse quickening as a chilling mist crept through the trees. The psychic fog swirled and writhed around him like tendrils of some otherworldly entity, grasping and pulling at his nerves. As the mist cleared, a menagerie of Pokémon emerged, their eyes burning with a fierce and vengeful fire.

Ninjask, Dragonair, Pidgeot, Fearow, Ivysaur, Wartortle, and Haunter approached Giovanni, surrounding him like a pack of ravenous wolves cornering their prey. Giovanni knew he was outnumbered, and a cold dread seeped into his bones as if he stood on the precipice of some dark abyss.

He turned to Austin, his voice trembling. "This is an unfair battle."

But Austin merely smiled, his eyes cold and unforgiving. "Life is unfair, Giovanni. We must all make our way in the world."

Giovanni paused, considering Austin's words, and then spoke with an eerie calm. "Have you ever been in the presence of a god, Mr. Super?"

Austin furrowed his brow, confused by Giovanni's question. 'What is he on about?' he thought.

Giovanni continued, his voice low and haunting. "They're larger than life, and twice as beautiful. And they always do what they want, because they have the power. I truly envy the power of a god."

Slowly, Giovanni reached into his pocket and withdrew a small, black mechanical Pokéball. Its surface was cold and smooth to the touch, pulsing with dark energy that seemed to drain the very light from the air around it.

With a wicked grin, Giovanni threw the ball into the air, and a sinister aura emanated from it, chilling the air and frosting the surrounding trees. The aura spread like a dark plague, the forest succumbing to its icy embrace.

Austin's eyes widened in horror as a massive Articuno burst forth from the ball, its body encased in sinister, futuristic body armor and a helmet that looked like the crown of some ancient, malevolent king. The Pokémon's eyes gleamed with an otherworldly intelligence, its gaze piercing through Austin's soul.

Giovanni's voice rang out, powerful and commanding, echoing through the frozen forest like the howl of a tormented spirit. "Blizzard!" he shouted, and Articuno obeyed, unleashing a maelstrom of snow and ice upon their opponents.

The sky turned a menacing shade of gray as snow and ice swirled around the battlefield like phantoms, their icy claws tearing at the hearts of Austin and his Pokémon. The air filled with the sounds of their cries, a symphony of pain and despair that echoed through the haunted woods, a chilling reminder of the horrors that awaited those who dared to challenge the wrath of a god.

[ Omake Paragraph ]

It is said that while Bagon wishes for wings, Wooper wishes for arms, and through evolution both of these dreams have come true. A Quagsire's arms are not the most useful appendages - they are short, lack thumbs, and are as many flippers for swimming as tools for manipulating objects – but for Wooper used to using only their tail, they are more than enough.

It is commonly believed that Quagsire is so happy to have arms at long last that nothing can bring them sorrow. This is quite possibly a myth; Wooper themselves are far from being sad Pokemon. But it is easy to see how this misconception developed, for Quagsire are a tough species of Pokemon that shrug off being struck by lightning, fight their battles without a grimace when hit by all except grass attacks, and their mouth seems to be in a perpetual smile even wider than Wooper's.

The slime surrounding its body, not the arms, is believed by many researchers to be the cause of this happiness. Unlike Wooper's toxic film, Quagsire slime has long been a popular recreational drug and has recently been approved to treat depression. When overdosed, it can have a negative effect on intelligence and cause the body to be slow to react to dangers, symptoms also seen in virtually all Quagsire. Quagsire does, however, become happier when given large objects to manipulate, and in the rare cases where their arms are lost in an accident, they seem to live in perpetual mourning, making it harder than even Pokemon which rely on their arms to attack.

Regardless of the reason, Quagsire smiles even more than Wooper, for they are even happier.
