"Sister Jasmine, are you ready?" Gary asked.
"You are still as arrogant as before. This should be what I said. It seems that I need to teach you a lesson," Jasmine complained.
Gary had been very arrogant when he was in Cianwood City. He didn't take children of the same age seriously at all and had a rich knowledge of Pokémon, making him the most popular among his peers.
[Ding! Obtained the badge of the Olivine Gym / Reward: Intermediate Rare Candy x5! Iron Tail permanent skill learning device, top-grade Metal Coat (steel skill power increased by 50%) x1!]
Seeing the task issued by the system, Gary knew that Jasmine would not use her grandfather's Pokémon this time, but only her own. It seemed that this battle would end soon.
"Shayka, you will be the referee," Jasmine said.
"Master, do you know Gary?" Shayka asked curiously.
"Yes, he learned martial arts in Cianwood City when he was a child and often came to Olivine City to play, and then we met," Jasmine said.
Shayka nodded, relieved that she didn't say anything inappropriate in front of Gary.
She quickly walked to the command area and announced, "The gym competition with badges as the stakes will begin. There are 2 Pokémon that can be used. Only the challenger has the right to replace Pokémon. Now, please release the Pokémon."
"Magnemite, it's up to you." Jasmine threw the Poké Ball without any hesitation.
Great!
A Magnemite floated in the air.
[LV30 Magnemite/Gym]
Seeing the level of Magnemite, Gary suddenly lost interest and said, "Sister Jasmine, if it was just Magnemite, this gym battle would become a piece of cake."
"Stop talking big release your Pokémon. I want to see how powerful you are," Jasmine said.
Gary shook his head helplessly. If he didn't see his good relationship with Jasmine, he wouldn't say much.
"In that case, let Jasmine see my strength." Gary released the Poké Ball.
Great!
The Poké Ball opened, and a dark and metallic Pokémon appeared on the field. It was Heracross.
"Heracross!" Jasmine was a little surprised.
She knew Gary was from the Kanto Region, and she didn't expect him to use a Pokémon unique to the Johto Region.
Heracross has Fighting Type, which restrains Steel Pokémon.
Fortunately, Steel Pokémon have high physical defense, and Fighting skills are mostly physical attack skills, so even if they have a type advantage, the damage will not be great.
"Magnemite, use Thunder Wave!" Jasmine said preemptively.
Magnemite fired a blue electric wave at Heracross, but unfortunately, Heracross dug and avoided Magnemite's Thunder Wave.
"Magnemite, use Gyro Ball!" Jasmine said.
Magnemite quickly rotated itself and flew into the cave.
Seeing this, Gary was also shocked.
Is this how much she looked down on his Heracross.
Even though Heracross was not a Ground Type Pokémon, its power was still very terrifying.
Magnemite was definitely not good enough to fight Heracross underground.
If he hadn't seen that Magnemite was only level 30, Gary would have thought that Jasmine's Magnemite was level 70.
"Heracross, let Magnemite taste your power use Brick Break," Gary shouted directly.
The command was issued, and the field was quiet and peaceful.
After a while, there was a "bang!" sound, and the ground in the center of the field cracked, and a silver sphere broke out.
Then, Heracross rushed out, caught up with Magnemite, and hit Brick Break again, slamming it down to the ground.
Bang!
Magnemite's hard body smashed a hole in the ground, and one of its eyes had turned into an X shape.
"Magnemite has lost its ability to fight, and Heracross wins," Shayka announced.
"So strong! Master's Magnemite was defeated so easily," Shayka was surprised as her Onix couldn't beat Jasmine's Magnemite.
"Not bad it seems you are really powerful," Jasmine said as she took back the Magnemite.
"Sister Jasmine, use your Steelix," Gary said.
"As you wish." Jasmine threw a Poké Ball.
Great!
An Onix appeared.
[LV45 Steelix/Gym]
Gary was a little disappointed.
Although this Steelix had some strength, it was not much, mainly because its potential was too low, and Jasmine was destined not to use it for too long.
However, it was still difficult for Heracross to defeat the Steelix in front of him because Steelix's physical defense species strength was as high as 200, making it very difficult to defeat with physical attacks.
"Come back, Heracross." Gary decisively took back Heracross.
Fighting a protracted war is not Gary's fighting style.
"Charizard, I leave it to you." Gary threw out the Poké Ball and sent out Charizard to restrain Steelix.
"Don't think that you can defeat my Steelix by attribute restraint," Jasmine ordered. "Steelix, use Stone Edge!"
"Roar!"
Steelix swung its tail and hit the ground hard, causing stone blades to break out and rush towards Charizard.
"Inferno."
At the command, Charizard spat out a blue flame, and the high-temperature flame instantly burned the stone blades to ashes, surrounding Steelix in blue flames.
"Roar!"
The flame cage made a shrill growl, and Steelix fell directly to the ground.
Bang!!
Steelix lay on the ground, motionless, with burn marks all over its body.
"Steelix has lost its ability to fight Charizard wins!" Shayka announced in disbelief.
"Both Pokémon of gym owner Jasmine lost their ability to fight, and the winner is challenger Gary."
Jasmine immediately pursed her lips, looking unconvinced.
She could hardly imagine that the boy had become such a powerful Trainer.
If she had known that Gary had such strength, she should have used the Pokémon left by her grandfather to fight.
"Sister Jasmine, you're not shocked, are you?" Gary asked.
"What are you thinking? How could I be shocked? I just misjudged your strength," Jasmine said.
"Then Sister Jasmine, is the badge..." Gary reminded.
"Take it."
Jasmine took the badge and slapped it into Gary's palm, handing her own gym badge to Gary unwillingly.
[Ding! Mission completed rewards have been distributed to the space backpack.]
"Sister Jasmine, then I'll leave first, and I'll come to fight you next time I have a chance," Gary said.
"Go quickly I don't want to see you," Jasmine said disdainfully. "By the way, leave your phone number I'll find you next time."
Her trump card Pokémon Steelix was defeated instantly, which made Jasmine very embarrassed. She decided to practice hard for a while and then find Gary for revenge.
"Okay."
Gary left his phone number and suggested, "Sister Jasmine, you can consider changing to a new Pokémon to Breeder."
