273 Chapter 9 (1/2)

In the battlefield,

Cynthia is looking at her opponents Ninetails which sent out cold wind and lowers temperature around with a vigilant look. The ice Pokemon is someone Gabite is most vulnerable to.

This Ninetails which was completely different from the fire ones she faced in the past was an ice type. And a powerful one at that if the water puddle around seemed to freeze a bit as soon it was released.

Her long and muscular legs which are most refined than other Ninetails revealed that she must be pretty fast compared to the other Ninetails.

This might be a problem for her, as Gabite can match the speed of average Ninetails.

Although she doesn't doubt her victory, she knows it will be a difficult one.

She then look at her opponents who has blonde hair like her but unlike her shiny blonde hers were silvery.

With her pokemon out and the aura of confidence she gave off, she can guess the true strength of Elsa lies around Flint and Lucian.

Although they cannot defeat her, they still needed her to be vigilant if she wished to have a chance of victory.

Similar to Cynthia, Elsa can feel the raw power and strength of Gabite, The dragon ground Pokemon which can most probably knock her Ninetails down if even a single move managed to hit the mark.

Even though she has speed advantage, Gabite was stronger than her Pokemon physically.

Above all else, Gabite was a psuedo king Pokemon and Ninetails was only an elite Pokemon, although at peak she still was weaker.

August simply smiled looking at the two Pokemons in front of him. He thought to himself, ' They are really amazing, to think they can be so strong at such a young age. They may become stronger than me by the time they reach their prime.

They haven't even entered that place yet, or their speed may be even further. If they don't slack and continue to work hard, they will become as strong as an elite four before their twenties, even faster if they have some fortunate encounter.'

He looks at the two girls and then at the group of children.

He thought, ' Although not as strong as these two, they can be gym leader grade strong at the very least in the future. They don't seem to have much interest in pokemon battle like these two.'

And finally on Alex.

' He is the undisputed strongest of his generation. Or so Samuel said. It is his declaration that set him on that pedestal.' he could still remember when Samuel called him and talked with him about Alex.

FLASHBACK BEGINS:

August was in front of a phone while looking at the sheepishly smiling face of Samuel Oak, Kanto's premier pokemon professor.

August asked rudely, ” Why did you call me for? I have retired from the league and don't want to be disturbed in my peace times.”

Samuel doesn't seem much affected by his tone and said, ” It's just that, I was thinking of making a declaration regarding my new student, Alex. I wish for your help in this matter.”

August seem confused by the name until he remembered it. ” Isn't it that brat of yours who fought in the Pokemon tide a week ago or so.”

Samuel just nods in reply and said nothing for August temper was about to unfold.

On seeing this he took a deep breath and his voice suddenly turns graver with every word he said,” To think we handed over the league to idiots like you. HAVE YOU LOT COMPLETELY LOST YOUR MIND?”

His eyes were red and the things behind him seem to fly around as his temper increased with every second.

Samuel ducked his head on seeing him so angry.

He knows that this old friend of his would be angry,very angry.

August was someone who considered every child in the region as his own. He often gives opportunity to the rising genius and protects them whenever he can.
