Shiri approached the lady surveying his surroundings. He stood on a white pathway with water around it. Swimmers were in the water but they were defeated with ease! HUSSAH!
?: Hey! My name is misty!
S: S-s-shiri.
M: I'm the gym leader of this town and I am not letting you go without a fight!
S: Uh... OK...
M: Don't worry! I'm not that good!
S: Nor me...
M: Here I come! Go Staryu!
Adrenaline rushed through Shiri. All thoughts of his plan faded he shot out Bulbapedia first thing.
"Sleep Powder!" Shiri commanded. Billions of tiny spores rained down onto the unsuspecting Staryu. It was asleep in seconds!
This Shiri thought Is far too easy. Something's up.
"Razor Leaf, Bulbapedia!" Staryu flew back to the wall before sinking back into the water.
"Staryu, come back!" Misty said "Go Starmie! Use Swift!" Starmie popped out out of it's pokeball and shot lots of tiny stars to Bulbapedia. Bulbapedia rolled back to Shiri's feet before getting up - only to find that Starmie was gone and Staryu was back - and shooting a flurry of leaves. Staryu fell back into the water again but scrambled back up.
"Ice Beam!" Misty shouted.
"No!" Shiri exclaimed but Staryu shot a huge beam of white that smashed Bulbapedia back to the edge -not frozen- but hurt How can I win this? Shiri asked himself. Ah-ha!
"Tackle!" Shiri commanded. Bulbapedia rammed mercilessly at the Staryu and it flew back to Misty's feet. "Sleep Powder!" And Staryu was asleep once more.
"Ha!" Misty laughed "That won't work! Starmie go!"
"Yes!" Shiri exclaimed "Leech Seed!" At once the seeds fell onto Starmie ensnaring it in thick vines that sapped the energy of it time and time again. Bulbapedia shot forth another flurry of leaves which promptly threw Starmie back into the walls.
"Come back Starmie!" Misty said "Staryu! Ice Beam!" And again, Bulbapedia was shot to the edge but not frozen. Here was their chance!
"Leech Seed!" Shiri commanded. Now Staryu was caught in the vines so it was time to win this!
"Water Gun!" Misty said.
"Tackle!" Bulbapedia rushed through the water and gave Staryu the beating of it's life. Staryu smashed into the wall where it laid still, unable to move an inch.
"Staryu come back," Misty muttered "Starmie come on out and use Ice Beam!"
"Dodge it!" Shiri commanded. "Use Tackle!" Starmie however nimbly dodged it by leaning to the side.
"Swift!" Misty countered. Bulbapedia rolled back and dodged the stars by a hairs breadth.
"Ice Beam!"
"Razor Leaf!" The two attacks met and collided in the middle. Both sides not giving in an inch.
"Tackle!"
