128 chapter 10- the true mastermind (1/2)

They kept looking at each other for a moment and then in a flash of purple and yellow they collided all around the clearing sending shockwaves around.

Both Gengar and electabuzz are known for their speed. Although not as fast as Arcanine their speed isn't something to laugh at and now when they are at a much higher level than average pokemons one could not even see a blur but flash of purple and yellow left from the energy they gave out and used in the battlefield.

Fist clashed with a fist, elbow to elbow, leg to leg. Gengar was physically weaker than electabuzz but matched him with his higher energy and Gengar was just checking the level at which electabuzz could compete with so over time.

Gengar slowly exceeded electabuzz in power and speed but with him constantly facing pokemons stronger than him in his younger years his battle senses are more developed then Gengar who constantly stayed in the tower and not having his equals his senses dulled over time.

Yet it doesn't mean they were at equal chances of victory. The difference between them is similar to a baby pokemon facing a fully evolved Charizard or something.

Similarly, Gengar is playing around with electabuzz to find his limits and then he would end the battle.

Alex already knew it and electabuzz did after fighting with Gengar yet he doesn't back down. Electabuzz didn't stand a chance at all but he is using this time to polish his skills and to learn to control his newfound powers

After all, fighting is the best way for one to grow in strength and powers. But it only happens when facing something his equal or stronger than himself. Facing weaker ones don't cause any gain of strength.

Gengar after a couple of round of exchange stopped holding back and began to press down electabuzz worth his increased power and speed. Electabuzz endured for a while and now put more energy in his defense.

After feeling he would lose soon electabuzz concentrated a large amount of electric power in himself and collided with Gengar.

Although electabuzz was wounded this time Gengar too has a bruise just above his left eye. Taking a look at the bruise electabuzz has caused on Gengar he fainted from exhaustion and mental drainage.

The transformation and the following battle put much strain of electabuzz but his fighting will manage to make him last for this long.

Gengar has accessed the level of electabuzz was quite shocked that a newly advanced Pokemon at pseudo-king could fight at this level and his powers were increasing spectacularly over the course of a fight.

After taking down the electric bipedal pokemon he glanced at others who may want to fight him but Alex put a stop to it by saying,” Haunter is still injured and will not be able to meet you since he is resting from the last battle with you.

If needed I could let you meet him when he is healed up or take him to meet you at pokemon tower later. After all, you aren't going to follow me as one of my freshly caught pokemon, isn't it? And you let yourself be caught by me just to meet Haunter once more.

Also, you already knew that the two young ghosts joined me on their own accord and I didn't steal them from the tower. You knew all this from the very beginning didn't you.”

Gengar just looked at Alex as if he found something interesting in him. Gengar just nodded and then a voice broke out in Alex mind.

' in your mind, I have established a symbol which will help you more in the ways if spiritualism. When you are able to solve the puzzle I left here, come visit in at the tower.

I will leave after you have calmed down the those two. I never wanted to beat you or anything just wanted to follow them to pass time.
