Chapter 6: Versus Red Part 1
The wind was howling at the summit of Mt Silver, the snow it carried reducing the vision. It was extremely cold, and the mountain was so tall that it was hard the breathe without help.
It was a wonder, then, to see a human seemingly not hindered by any of that. And the guy was wearing light clothes! Nothing warm!
This showed Sweetie Belle that Red was above the others.
And she didn't doubt that it was also the case of his Pokémon, like the Dragonite that was now facing her, the light orange dragon-Pokémon looking down at her, ready to attack anytime.
Then, without warning, the Dragonite's tail began to glow before it used it to hit her! Not expecting the Pokémon to attack directly, it was only Sweetie's quick reflexes that let her teleport out of the way in time!
It attacked without Red even giving an order? she thought in shock.
She didn't have time to think about this as the Dragonite spotted her and immediately attacked again, this time using Extreme Speed. This time, she was ready, and she avoided the charge by jumping just above the Dragonite before she used Iron Tail right on its head, slamming it on the ground. The Dragonite didn't seem much affected by this, however, as it Mega Punched the ground to propel itself in the air, thus quickly recovering and forcing Sweetie Belle to move out of the way. It then opened its mouth wide and prepared a Hyper Beam. She did the same from her horn.
They fired their Hyper Beam almost at the same time, and the two collided, resulting in a huge explosion that Sweetie Belle used as cover to teleport behind the Dragonite, only for the Pokémon to turn around with extreme speed before hitting her with Iron Head. He followed it with Iron Tail, but Sweetie Belle managed to grab it before using it to throw the Dragonite hard toward the ground. She went after it just after throwing it, and just after it crashed, she gave it a powerful kick in the stomach before she barely avoided a Thunder Punch followed by an Ice Beam. She countered it with her own Ice Beam followed by a Draining Kiss (on the cheek, the kiss), healing the damage she got from the Iron Head.
Only to find the Dragonite also healing using Rest!
"WAKE UUUUUUP!!!!!!" she yelled using Uproar, forcefully waking the Dragonite up while dealing some damage to its eardrums (as well as to Red's and Pikachu's). She used so much power in it that she made the top of the mountain shake, causing boulders to fall! No doubt she had been heard from very far away both in Kanto and in Johto!
But the Dragonite made her regret it because, as it was holding its ears in pain, it rolled on its belly with her still on it, ending up crushing her under it. So she fired a point blank Hyper Beam that sent the Dragonite flying, followed by another Ice Beam. It still wasn't enough to knock it out, but it was terribly weakened as it landed on a knee, breathing heavily.
The Dragonite then roared before smashing the ground, using Earthquake that forced the filly to fly up only for the dragon to use Hyper Beam. She dogded it with an aileron roll before she dashed toward the Pokémon who then attempted to Mega Punch her, but she avoided the punch too with another aileron roll before she Mega Punched it on the head, slamming it on the ground. The Dragonite wasn't done yet, but before it could get up, Sweetie Belle flew high into the sky before dropping back toward it, another Mega Punch ready. The Dragonite quickly put its arms to protect its head, but the filly targeted instead its belly.
The resulting impact knocked the breath out of the Dragonite and caused a good part of Mt Silver to crack in two.
Sweetie Belle landed beside the dragon just as its head hit the ground, the Pokémon finally out. Red immediately called it back in its Poké Ball, impressed, before he smiled again, took an Ultra Ball, and opened it, releasing a giant bird Pokémon that reminded Sweetie Belle of a phoenix: Moltres, one of the legendary birds. Fire and Flying-type possessing the Pressure ability.
And Sweetie could feel it. She felt like there was a weight on her whole body. Any action in the presence of this bird will be more tiring.
But she didn't mind. She still had a lot in reserve.
But it wasn't the only thing she could feel from Moltes. Its body was radiating intense heat that caused the snow around to melt.
And then, it went and used Sunny Day, clearing in a few seconds the clouds that covered the sky, the air now feeling like in a desert.
But Moltes wasn't the only one who could change the weather.
Sweetie Belle countered with a Sandstorm, turning tonnes of stones into sand before sending it at the Pokémon, totally ruining its Sunny Day while also hurting it a little. Moltes was visibly annoyed before it used Sunny Day again, forcing the Sandstorm to stop. But Sweetie Belle had seen it coming and immediately restarted the Sandstorm, only for Moltes to maintain its Sunny Day.
And so, this resulted in the Sandstorm continuously raging and causing small damage while the sun still managed to pierce it to the point of almost blinding Sweetie Belle, until she just materialised Spinni's sunglasses and put them on.
And it was in this sunny and sandy weather that the fight truly began with Moltes using Heat Wave. Sweetie Belle avoided it by flying up while she levitated several giant boulders that she threw one after another at the bird. Moltes was able to avoid most of them, and it very rapidly recovered from the few that hit, looking as if the boulders didn't affect it much despite the Pokémon's extreme weakness to Rock-type moves. But the boulder DID hurt it, the wounds they caused were visible, the bird was just very good at resisting them.
While avoiding the boulders that continued to come without stopping, Moltes unleashed the flames of its body all around before it used Hurricane. The winds created by the moves carried the flames, sending a real firestorm at Sweetie Belle, the winds cutting and the flames melting the boulders on the way.
Lucky her she could teleport, so she easily avoided the powerful attack by teleporting behind Moltes. She then used Diamond Storm, materializing countless small diamonds that she sent into the Sandstorm, making it cause much more damage to Moltes as the diamonds continuously cut it severely all over its body along with the grains of sand.
But suddenly, in an instant, Moltes turned around and unleashed a Solar Beam, the bird not having to charge it thanks to Sunny Day. Having not seen it coming, Sweetie Belle wasn't able to teleport before she was hit by it, the beam sending her away. But she rapidly flew out of it only for Moltes to spam Heat Wave while also using Hurricane to do like earlier. Sweetie Belle avoided them as best as she could while this time using long-ranged electric attacks, the electricity passing through the flames without problems, unlike the boulders.
So the two began to fly around each other while attacking and avoiding the other's attacks, the temperature rising as the sandstorm was heated by the intense sun and by the many powerful fire attacks, beginning to burn Sweetie Belle, and many of the grains of sand were turned into glass that cut both Moltes and Sweetie Belle, contrary to the diamonds which targeted only Moltes.
So Sweetie stopped using Sandstorm and used instead Rain Dance, summoning clouds from which it began to rain. Because of the clash it caused with Sunny Day that Moltes was still using without stopping, the sky was only partially covered, but the intense light had the effect of evaporating the water of the rain, turning it into a fog that enveloped the battlefield, totally hiding the sun. As a result, the effects of both moves became null. No boosted Fire-moves, but no boosted Water-moves either.
But, too bad for Moltes, its body was like a lighthouse in this fog, and Sweetie Belle had no problems keeping track of it contrary to the bird who totally lost the filly.
And she gladly took advantage of it! By unleashing powerful Water-moves quickly followed by Electric-moves before the water could evaporate from Moltes' very warm body. The combo was extremely effective, and Moltes could do not much to avoid them as it had no idea from where Sweetie Belle attacked.
So it did the only thing it could do; it stopped using Sunny Day, leaving Rain Dance as the only weather move. Then, it created strong winds that cleared the fog, letting it see Sweetie Belle again.
But now, thanks to Rain Dance, her Water-moves were boosted while Moltes' Fire-moves were weakened, and the filly didn't lose time to use this advantage.
But then, Moltes flew high into the sky, wings closed, before its body fully burst into flames as it dived down before it was enveloped in a blue aura.
It was using Brave Bird.
Sweetie waited for the last second, and then, teleported out of the way, letting Moltes crash into the mountain below, leaving a big crater.
When the dust cleared, Sweetie Belle could see that, because of the resulting recoil, Moltes was KO.
Well, it tried. The bird at least fought to the end even when it seemed to be a lost cause.
Red called back Moltes before taking another Ultra Ball, calling this time Articuno, the Ice/Flying-type of the legendary birds, also possessing Pressure.
And almost immediately, Sweetie's Rain Dance was turned into a hailstorm, the pellets of ice falling hard on her, hurting her.
So she quickly levitated a boulder to use as a shield against the hail.
To make it worst, Articuno used Blizzard, sending icy winds filled with snowflakes at her to freeze her, the cold biting her body.
So she used Moltes' strategy and used Sunny Day, forcing the sun to show itself through the clouds, the intense warmth of its rays melting the hail back into rain and warming up Sweetie's body. However, because of Hail, the temperature wasn't enough to turn the rain into fog like earlier. So the result of Hail and Sunny Day was Rain Dance, meaning, again, that no type received a boost or were weakened, the rain countering the sun and vice versa.
Not needing the boulder anymore, she slammed it against Articuno, partially crushing it between the boulder and the mountain, only for Sweetie to take an Avalanche in return, burying her under a pile of slowly melting snow. The bird used the occasion to destroy the boulder before flying away, staring at the pile of snow, ready to attack as soon as the filly flew out of it.
Only for Sweetie Belle to teleport behind Articuno, taking it by surprise, before she used Flame Wheel on its back. Articuno immediately turned to face Sweetie Belle before unleashing Sheer Cold, sending a powerful blue blast of absolute-zero cold that Sweetie Belle thankfully avoided with a quick move to the side. She absolutely had to avoid being hit by this move as it was so powerful that it was an instant win for Articuno if it hit.
But Articuno immediately fired another Sheer Cold, and Sweetie materialized a boulder to shield herself from it. The boulder was frozen, and she threw it to hit Articuno on the head, stopping it from firing Sheer Cold. Sweetie then used a combination of Quick Attack and Fire Charge to rapidly ram the bird again and again while being cloaked in fire.
Only to eventually be slapped by one of the wings, sending her crashing into the mountain. Articuno followed this by another Sheer Cold, hoping to get the filly before she could recover from the crash. But again, Sweetie Belle avoided it by running away using Quick Attack. Articuno followed her with Sheer Cold, and the two circled the mountain that was more and more covered in ice as a result.
Which had for effect to weaken the rocks of the mountain, making it crack until it caused several landslides. Sweetie Belle then teleported right behind Articuno and used a point blank Hyper Beam to send it right into one of the landslides, the bird ending up buried under tons of rocks. It quickly freed itself in an explosion of rock and ice, charging at Sweetie Belle with Giga Impact, only to be stopped by a powerful Thunder, which was finally too much for the legendary.
It lose consciousness and began to fall. Sweetie Belle had to catch it and levitate it back to the top of the mountain for Red to be able to call it back into its Poké Ball.
A third Ultra Ball was then opened, and out of it came Zapdos, the third of the legendary birds. Electric and Flying-type, and like the two others, it had Pressure.
And the clouds above were immediately charged in electricity while Zapdos immediately used Rain Dance. With Sweetie Belle's Sunny Day still here, it caused a fog again, but this time, the filly didn't gain any advantage from it. Zapdos wasn't a moving lighthouse like Moltes, and so, was difficult to spot in the fog unless it let electricity coursing its body, which it didn't. Of course, Zapdos had the same problem.
Only for Sweetie to still be hit by a Thunder.
"Ngh! What?"
She then had to avoid a second Thunder, followed by a third, before she understood what was happening.
There was electricity coursing between the water particles of the fog. She could feel her fur stand on end because of it. And Zapdos certainly used it to pinpoint her position.
This left her no choice but to stop Sunny Day to get rid of the fog, leaving only Rain Dance.
Sandstorm and Hail wouldn't do too. Sandstorm would turn into a death trap for both Zapdos and her because of the rain compacting the sand into pellets, and she didn't have any physical defense against Hail unless she turned into an Ice-type Pokémon.
Which she could because Zapdos was weak against Ice, but it would leave her limited, and Zapdos could still know some moves effective against Ice.
So she just decided to let Rain Dance alone and to fight in these conditions knowing that she was disadvantaged in it.
Beside, contrary to Moltes and Articuno, Zapdos only had two weaknesses: Rock and Ice; and none of them was a double weakness like it was the case with Rock for the two other birds.
Which meant that Zapdos was the hardest to defeat among the three birds.
Sweetie Belle may have to get a little more serious.
So she levitated around her dozens of boulders before she flew between them while firing dozens of Ice Beams and sending dozens of Glacial Lances at Zapdos (which it easily avoided most of them). Whenever Zapdos attacked with Thunder or any other long-ranged moves, Sweetie Belle used the boulders as shields. Whenever Zapdos attempted a more direct attack, she threw the boulders at it. However, like for Moltes, Zapdos immediately recovered from the boulders thrown at it and generally continued its charges at Sweetie Belle, forcing her to move or teleport out of the way.
However, Zapdos began to spam Light Screen, boosting more and more its defense against special-type moves, which were most of what Sweetie used to attack the thunderbird. So, eventually, for Zapdos, things like Ice Beam weren't better than simple bug bites. And it already wasn't easy to hit it!
So she turned most of the boulders into smaller rocks and used Rock Blast, using her levitation to control the rocks so they homed in. But then, Zapdos used Steel Wing to destroy many of them before it charged at her, also destroying the boulders on the way with this move. Of course, Sweetie Belle teleported again out of the way, only for Zapdos to send dozens of Thunders in all directions from all over its body, one of them hitting Sweetie where she reappeared. But then, she used Rock Tomb, sending the remaining boulders to hinder Zapdos and forcing it to destroy them first.
Sweetie Belle took the occasion to teleport beside the claws of Zapdos before she grabbed them and threw Zapdos to crash into the mountain. When Zapdos recovered from the crash and opened its eyes, it had the nasty surprise of seeing hundreds of rocks and boulders levitating in the air above it.
"Well... Bummer..."
The next instant, the rocks and boulders rained all over the area, burying Zapdos under them. Once it was over, Sweetie Belle dig the now unconscious bird out, letting Red call it back into its Poké Ball.
The trainer then nodded at his Pikachu, and the little Pokémon jumped from his shoulder.
Sweetie Belle really wasn't sure what to expect from this Pikachu. The yellow mouse was far from being as powerful as the legendary birds, and yet, Red waited until said birds were defeated to send it.
the Pikachu was slowly walking toward her...
And then...
Quick Attack!
Using this move, Pikachu began to zip and zap around Sweetie Belle at a speed she had rarely seen, not unlike electricity. After a few seconds, it then stopped above the filly, tail enveloped in iron. Sweetie Belle immediately intercepted its Iron Tail with her own Iron Tail, resulting in a great clash between the two.
"Darn. You could rival even legendaries with this speed. No wonder Red sends you only now."
Pikachu smirked. "As Red's first Pokémon, it would be disappointing if I wasn't."
"Well, we can be two playing like this."
Sweetie Belle jumped away and used Quick attack to do like Pikachu. The two then began to zip and zap around before they clashed again. But this time, Pikachu jumped up and sent a Thunder that Sweetie avoided with a jump to the side before she charged at Pikachu who readied its Iron Tail to defend itself. But then, at the last second, Sweetie Belle teleported behind it, grabbed it, and used Submission.
Pikachu punished her with electricity, helped by Static, forcing her to move away. Pikachu then restarted to use Quick Attack, only for Sweetie to smash the ground to use Earthquake, forcing Pikachu to jump high to avoid it, only for Sweetie to use Telekinesis to smash it into into the ground. But Pikachu hit the ground with Iron Tail first, stopping itself from crashing too hard before it used Dig so it wouldn't repeat. Sweetie Belle used Dig too to join it underground.
Whatever happened next underground, it resulted in a huge quantity of electricity to come out of the holes, followed by an earthquake. Sweetie Belle then came out of the ground and flew into the air, punched in the gut by Pikachu with a Thunder Punch, followed by a Brick Break that sent her back crashing. But before, she managed to wrap her tail around one of Pikachu's legs, causing it to crash alongside her before she recovered and slammed it on the ground a couple of times, still with her tail wrapped around the leg. She was stopped by Pikachu sending a Thunder at her.
Pikachu then went full frontal with Sweetie Belle, using Mega Punch, Mega Kick, and Iron Tail, forcing the filly to call her martial arts training to counter it, all the while they regularly used Quick Attack to move around, and Pikachu wasn't shy in using Thunder from point blank in the middle of a Mega Punch/Mega Kick combo..
To put it simply, Pikachu wasn't as powerful as the legendary birds, or even as the Dragonite, but its fighting skills were unparalleled, and it was the one that gave Sweetie the most problems until now, much to her pleasure. Of course, she was still limiting herself to not end the fight too quickly with unfair attacks, and she wanted to keep as much energy as possible for the last Pokémon.
Because there was no doubt that this fight against Pikachu will be nothing compared to the one against the last Pokémon.
And despite all its speed, the filly still managed to hit the Pikachu every now and then, and Pikachu weren't known for their durability. So, eventually, a last Mega Punch on the cheek managed to send the mouse on the ground, not moving anymore.
As Red called Pikachu back into its Poké Ball, the filly recovered her breath, readying herself for the last fight.
Then, she saw Red grab a purple ball with a M on it.
One of the legendary Master Balls. A very rare ball that was said that it could never miss its catch. It was said that Arceus itself couldn't escape this ball.
This wasn't a ball that was used on a simple Magicarp or Rattata. That was a ball made to catch the most powerful among the legendaries.
Sweetie Belle immediately understood that whatever Pokémon was in there will be a real challenge that will force her to use everything she had (within reason to not accidentally destroy the planet).
The Master Ball then opened.
And out of it came a Pokémon that looked like... a bipedal humanoid gray creature with feline features such as the muzzle, but with something that looked like blunt horns instead of ears, and there was something that looked like a tube coming out of the back of its skull before entering the top of its spine. It also possessed a long purple tail.
The legendary, infamous artificial Pokémon created by the Team Rocket to use as a tool to control everything. A clone of Mew itself. One of the most powerful legendary Pokémon of the world who could almost rival with Arceus itself.
Mewtwo.
Sweetie Belle then remarked that Red was putting on some bracelet with a knowing smile.
Oh boy...

calling it for y
Time to stop holding back (within reason) also how does one hold back on stamina?
10641161
They can't (or at least, I have no idea how). That's why Sweetie Belle is still up and ready to fight Mewtwo even after everything she did. Also, she's constantly healing herself.
Ultra Ball if you care about consistency. Yes, it still has the stylized "H" shape on it, and yes the contest tiers still use the Japanese names.
10641181
Thanks.
10641165
How much is she holding back?
10641205
To give you an idea, she's now almost as powerful as Void. That means she could destroy worlds if she wanted. A simple punch could spread cracks all over one. So she has to hold back A LOT to not simply pulverize her adversaries One Punch Man-style.
10641243
Hey, I thought up a move that Sweetie can use as an OC Pokemon move. It's called: Mirage. It can do one of two things. Ether it can show the foe some scary surroundings which can paralyze it but boosts it's defense and special defense a lot, or it can show it some calming and peaceful surroundings which lower it's attack and special attack a lot but restore it's health by 3/4ths. It's a coin toss on which it shows, and Sweetie actually lets it be that way to keep with the theme of the Pokemon world. If she chooses to stop holding back, she could not only choose which image is seen, but she could also stop the boosts that come with both. What do you think of it?
10641275
Seems nice, but not being a Pokémon specialist, I would rather ask the advice of someone like Kelduo.
This reminds me of the high-speed battle between Mewtwo and Genesect in Pokemon the Movie: Genesect and the Legend Awakened.
You forgot to capitalize "as".
This is where the real battle begins...
Also, you need to put the word "on" between "putting" and "some".
10641278
It's not a real Pokemon move, it's one I made up for Sweetie.
10641356
Ah yeah, that was an epic battle, even if we all know that Mewtwo would have trashed Genesect in ten seconds flat.
Yeah, the Dragonite, three legendary birds, and super-skilled Pikachu were just an appetizer, even thought the Dragonite by itself would have probably slaughtered the teams of 99% of the trainers of the world.
Also, thanks, I corrected the errors.
10641367
Also...
Rather than physical pressure, I like to think that the Pressure ability causes opposing Pokemon to work harder to win. Because Pokemon with Pressure tend to be stronger than most Pokemon (for instance, because they're Legendary Pokemon) outside of video games, their opponents are forced to battle even harder to gain victory, thus the increase in PP usage in games.
10641275
That would be a good move, but I don't see how calming and peaceful surroundings would restore a Pokemon's health. Maybe instead of restoring health, it could change the Pokemon's Ability to Unaware because the Pokemon would be too relaxed by the peacefulness to notice the opponent's stat changes. Also, paralysis doesn't balance out the drastic boost in defenses enough. A better idea would be replacing paralysis with a status condition that makes the opponent incapable of taking action for about two turns. The status condition could be called Terrified.
10641367
Double resistance to Psychic says that it lasts until Mewthree decides to try Aura Sphere instead.
10641393
Another suggestion when you get to Final Fantasy 7 have Cloud accidentally summon her instead of giant Chocobo
10641475
Mmh... I verified in Bulbapedia, and Genesect only has one resistance to Psychic. But yeah, if Mewtwo had spammed Aura Sphere, and maybe also Ancient Power, the fight would have been over rather quickly. Although he would have had to watch out for Bug Buzz and X-Scissor (seriously, one of the most powerful legendaries has to fear Bugs... Poor guy).
10641481
As funny as it would be, I don't think it works this way. You can only invoke what the materias let you invoke.
10641513
It was a double resistance initially, the Steel-type got nerfed in X/Y. (Mega Mewtwo means less here than you'd expect; every generation has had things debut in the anime before the games were released all the way back to Togepi and Ho-oh)
10641579
Ah. I didn't know.
10641513
I was thinking it happens while he is learning how to summon giant Chocobo and accidentally summons in Sweetie Belle instead. kind of like how Yojimbo needs money to actually use his full power instead of Mana and if you don't get enough his dog shows up instead or Cloud could use every materia required for the summon except for one and due to it
still being a successful summon Sweetie Belle is pulled instead since the materia used would represent Void
10641393
Each of them images should give one negative effect and one positive effect. If you want to change the healing one, it has to be something that helps the Pokemon that's affected by Mirage. The other idea you suggested was good though.
10641805
But isn't Unaware a good thing? It completely ignores all of the opponents' stat changes.
10641897
I misread it last time. So, yeah, it's good. How's the next chapter looking by now?
