A Pkmn Story: Chapter 6 - Togekiss

A Pokemon Story

Chapter 6
Togekiss

Screens were showing replays of the two battles before. The scene where his Metagross fainted due to the repetitive waterfalls was stopped and the screens started showing a live streaming of the battlefield for the audience to experience from a nearer angle. He was frustrated to say the least and didn’t give any attention to Irene wishing him good luck.

‘Togekiss use Air Slash!’
‘Gengar, dogde it and use hypnosis!’ Irene shouted. The ghost vanished into the ground while the air torrents didn’t hit and left a confused Togekiss on the battlefield.
‘Where is it gonna appear?’ Chris whispered and looked around nervously. He couldn’t lose this one too. Togekiss floated around and stopped abruptly. It tried moving its wings but they were like frozen in midair. It gave off a scream as it realized Gengar was emerging out of its shadow on the ground.
‘Togekiss!’ Chris felt cold sweat running down his spine. Gengar had gotten control of Togekiss through its shadow and made it unable to move around.
‘Hypnosis!’ Irene nodded to her pokemon. Gengar smiled, showing of his sharp shark like teeth. His eyes started glowing and met the frightened Togekiss’ eyes which opened up for a second and closed again. It feel to the ground and started sleeping.

‘Are you serious?’ Chris shouted anxiously. He started running out of options already. The scene where his Metagross was defeated run through his mind over and over again.
‘Gengar, use Nightmare.’ Irene said in a creepy happy way.
The Gengar went over to the Togekiss and touched its face. Its hand lighted up and Togekiss started shaking and trembling. ‘Now it is gonna lose health with every round that passes by while it sleeps. Won’t you do anything about it?’ Chris just stared at his pokemon suffering. Irene shrugged her shoulders. ‘Gengar, Dreameater!’ The Gengar looked over to its trainer, never losing his demonic smile and then got sucked into the Togekiss’ head through some point between its eyes. The pokemon shaked again and gave away scared noises. Its wings had got hard and the whole process just looked painful. Gengar emerged from the same spot and walked over to its trainer. Togekiss kept on shaking severely. 

Chris tried to hold a tear back. ‘Togekiss return. Metagross go!’
The red light sucked the suffering Togekiss into its pokeball and a second lightbeam send the metallic giant out.
‘At last you changed! Gengar use Curse!’
Gengar made several black needles appear out of nowhere and pointed them to itself. The needles struck it mercilessly and dug into its skin till they disappeared completely. It must have been painful since it shut its eyes and kneeled down, but never lost its smile. 

‘Why would you do that, your pokemon lost half of its health with this move.’ Chris gasped.
‘That’s true, but now your Metagross is cursed and is going to lose a quarter of its health with every turn.’ she said and smiled like a five year old.
‘You won’t last that long. Metagross, Thunder Punch!’ Metagross raised its arm in the sky and charged it then flew over to its foe and hit it with an electrical punch. The Gengar was unable to move and popped out of the battle field.
‘GENGAR CANNOT BATTLE ANYMORE. PLEASE PROCEED TO YOUR NEXT POKEMON.’ the speaker said.
